My days as a landlord in Gotham

(pickup)

In fact, many people wonder what is the difference between a homestay and a hotel?

Why is homestay very attractive to many tourists?

After all, in the eyes of many people, the hardware of homestays is absolutely inferior to that of hotels, and there are many criticisms in terms of service compared to hotels.

But it is such a homestay with many shortcomings that has become a big favorite in the tourism market, which makes many chain hotels that follow the low-end route jealous.

In the eyes of those experienced travelers, although the homestay has one or another flaw, the homestay also has the irreplaceability of a hotel.

The first is the sense of integration and uniqueness of the homestay. Any homestay is unique, because there are thousands of homestay owners, so there are naturally thousands of styles under the thousands of tastes of the hosts.

No matter how strange the decoration style of the homestay is, it must be integrated with the local cultural environment.

You can't see a Mediterranean style in a B&B in New York, and it's also impossible to see a Victorian style in a B&B in Los Angeles, unless this kind of B&B is a "fake B&B" created by the hotel owner

The second is the human touch of the homestay. No one wants to be a hasty passer-by when traveling, especially for experienced travelers, they are more looking forward to entering the city and looking at the city from the eyes of the locals.

Therefore, to a certain extent, the relationship between homestay landlords and tenants is not only a simple relationship between the service provider and the service recipient, but also a little friend relationship.

I don't know if other homestay owners think so, at least Li Lei thinks so.

He didn't expect that his relationship with Ying Zheng would be in crisis when Ying Zheng was about to leave. Although Li Lei thought that what he did was right, he was protecting the security of the homestay system and at the same time maintaining the rules of historical travel.

"Li, are you feeling unwell?

If you feel a little tired, we can go home and continue to supervise. "

Hamada Hiroshi looked at Li Lei and said.

From Hamada Hiroshi's point of view, Li Lei's mental state is very wrong today.

Although Li Lei often presents a salty fish state that deep otaku often exhibits, as long as he enters the working state, Li Lei is still very conscientious.

This time, Li Lei proposed to come to this area with Hamada Hiroshi because the Red Queen said it was difficult to monitor Dr. Akers' latest secret base.

This is one of the slums in Gotham City, not much different from other slums in Gotham City.

People here rarely leave the neighborhood because, to them, the rest of Gotham City seems somewhere exotic and dangerous.

Although the community is considered impoverished, there is a growing economy to sustain it.

It's just that the economy here is extremely deformed, and behind it is inextricably linked with the underworld or gangster forces in Gotham City.

When the disguised Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi appeared in this community, everyone in the community looked at them with very cautious and indifferent eyes.

Their eyes seem to be looking at two dead bodies and thinking that they will be able to get away with something valuable from the two bodies later, especially the skinny drug addicts, and besides the malicious punks.

Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi naturally have the means to deal with the slums. They found a gangster who seemed to be the little boss. The wolves waved.

Immediately, the group of hungry wolves turned into a group of harmless huskies, and left here silently.

In the eyes of the little boss, these are the social animals in Gotham City who have been squeezed by the big boss.

They may still be able to relieve stress by relying on marijuana cigarettes at ordinary times, but one day they will go to the dark corners of this city to buy what they really need-white | powder and women.

The white | powder in the hands of the little boss is not a high-end product, and it is even mixed with a lot of sundries.

But the little boss didn't think there was anything wrong with it, his price was the lowest in Gotham City.

After receiving the goods, Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi couldn't wait to walk into the small hotel next to them under the attention of the little boss, and opened a room.

This is also the norm here, after all, the Gotham Police Department will still catch | drug use for the sake of face.

So either choose that kind of high-end place, or come to the slums, otherwise other places are not safe.

Seeing these two people acting like other drug addicts, the little boss was no longer curious.

As for whether the two of them died when they went to the hotel to get high, or they should find a woman to vent, or simply clear the back door with each other, and it’s not his business. Anyway, the hotel owner is not a fool, and he can open a hotel here. From the moment he was born, he knew how powerful the boss's methods were.

Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi had taken a fancy to this hotel in advance, because this hotel was not far from the building where Dr. Akers entered and exited.

Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi took advantage of the night to release the unmanned detector. After all, compared with the noisy streets, the building was really quiet and scary.

While the two were waiting for a feedback signal, Li Lei thought of Ying Zheng, feeling a little off.

"I am fine."

Li Lei said, "You also know that I have mastered the profession of pharmacist recently, and making potions is not difficult for me.

As long as it is not an intractable disease, I can solve most of the diseases by myself.

I just suddenly thought of Ying Zheng, and I wondered if I had surpassed the 'landlord-tenant relationship' a bit.

After all, to a certain extent, I am neither the tenant's mother nor the tenant's nanny. If they want to do anything, I am doing my duty by providing reference.

After all, they can only stay in this world for a maximum of 5 days. As long as they don't die completely during these 5 days, then it has nothing to do with me.

Just like Ying Zheng, what if he really wants to run for the President of the United States?

He should leave here tomorrow night. Could he succeed in impeaching the current president in less than 48 hours?

Even if the current president is successfully impeached, according to the Constitutional Amendment, the vice president, speaker of the House of Representatives and others can still take over the executive duties of the president of the United States in order. "

"I thought you were worried about something. I thought you cared too much about your system."

Hamada Hiroshi said.

"Although the homestay system is the fundamental system that constrains you and me, the system and you are interdependent.

My feeling now is that you are serving the system, not the system serving you.

If so, is the system of any value to you?

If my life is all about pleasing a cold system, I might as well end this lifeless life as soon as possible. "

Hamada Hiroshi said that he found that there was a feedback on the monitor screen, "It looks like a chemical factory?

It's actually a drug manufacturing factory, tsk tsk, I don't know which boss's subordinates are getting bored. "

Hamada Hiroshi is very aware of the underground gangs in Gotham City.

He knows very well that Gotham's underground world has a very strange rule, that is, Gotham can sell|drugs but can never manufacture|drugs.

Therefore, Gotham City does not have any drug manufacturing factories, and most of Gotham's drugs are imported from Columbia through the port, or shipped from other cities in New Jersey.

This ban in Gotham City has been implemented for at least 100 years. One can imagine how much power and interests are involved behind this ban.

Now that someone actually opened such a factory, it seems that the entire underground forces of Gotham are regarded as air.

However, this factory was not the target of Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi, so Hamada Hiroshi operated the monitor and continued to inspect other places.

It's a pity that nothing related to Dr. Akers was found elsewhere, and Hiro Hamada was a little puzzled.

"Dr. Akers' major is related to medicine, and this has nothing to do with his major.

Since this is a drug manufacturing factory, if Dr. Akers is not a core stakeholder, how does he have the authority to enter and exit here? "

Hamada Hiroshi muttered to himself, "Since there is nothing to discover upstairs, let's go to the basement now."

After the detector entered the empty basement, Hamada Hiroshi turned on all the scanning equipment for detection.

"There is actually a secret door here, and our scans show that the secret door leads to a secret room.

Unfortunately, we have no way to enter the secret room. "

"The harvest this time is enough. You fix the detector near the secret door and see if you can sneak in when Dr. Akers comes in and out."

Li Lei said, "It's time for us to leave, it would be too strange to stay too long."

After Li Lei finished speaking, he took the bag of white powder to the toilet and flushed it down the toilet.

Then he went back to the room and put the detection equipment into his own system space, and finally he and Hamada Hiroshi made the room a little messy.

"This is a potion I prepared, which can produce a smell similar to burning cigarettes, and at the same time, it will also be mixed with a bit of marijuana.

You spray the room and spray yourself.

By the way, remember to turn on the exhaust equipment in the room. "

The owner of this kind of hotel knows what his tenants are doing, so no matter how bad the hardware is, it will be equipped with a strong suction exhaust fan.

While Li Lei asked Hamada Hiroshi to spray, he also sprayed himself.

Before finally going out, Hamada Hiroshi adjusted the makeup of the two of them, looking tired and satisfied, but his face was still a little pale.

The costumes of Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi did not make the hotel owner suspicious. After he and Li Lei settled the bill, he gestured to a simple-looking young man on the sofa in the hotel lobby.

Li Lei also understood now that if the hotel owner hadn't gestured to the young man, then the two of them would definitely have no way to leave the community.

Now Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi can be regarded as new customers that this community has temporarily accepted, and basically no one will make trouble when they come here in the future.

But it seems that these two people are not particularly relieved. When Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi left the community, they could still feel a few tails behind them.

"You can't go back directly, go to safe house No. 22 and go down."

While joking with Hamada Hiroshi, Li Lei communicated with Hamada Hiroshi in code words, "Let's take the light rail, and then tell Heihu to wait for us in the underground parking garage of No. 22 Safe House."

Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi were like two young people who had just come out of fun. They flushed their faces in the bathroom of the light rail waiting area, which made their faces look a little better.

After the train arrived, the two played and got on the train.

And the tails also got into the car at the door next to them.

The carriage was not crowded, so a few tails who had not received professional tracking training looked particularly abrupt in the carriage.

Fortunately, Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi did not intend to shake off these tails, so they chose to turn a blind eye.

After arriving at the site, the two walked around the neighborhood with their tails.

The two ate, drank and returned to safe house No. 22, which is a place where many young people like to rent.

The neighborhood is regarded as the entrepreneurial district of Gotham City, so there are a lot of young people here.

For most young people who are on a tight budget, the rental houses here are known for their high cost performance.

Although the house size is small, for young people who are still enthusiastic about starting a business, it is very good to have a bed to sleep on, not to mention that the single apartment here also has a bathroom.

Seeing Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi entering two rooms respectively, the tails took a look around and left.

The rooms of Li Lei and Hamada Hiroshi have actually been connected internally, and they have also been transformed into a temporary refuge for the two of them.

By hacking into the monitoring system of the gate, the two saw the tails leaving.

So the two went to the bathroom to wash off the disguise, and then changed back into their usual clothes.

The two took the elevator directly to the underground parking garage, and then drove the black tiger out of the safe house.

After returning to the apartment, Ying Zheng was eating while watching TV.

After seeing Li Lei coming back, he immediately showed a very dissatisfied expression.

As for Ying Zheng's temper, Li Lei could only say that he was fortunate that he did not live in the Warring States Period, otherwise he might be torn apart by Ying Zheng at this moment.

However, Li Lei also knew that the quarrel between himself and Ying Zheng had to be resolved, so he simply sat down at the dinner table.

Since the mid-term election of the U.S. Congress is about to begin, the news programs of major news channels or wireless TV stations have begun to focus on the election, and many politicians who are interested in running for Congress have been promoting themselves in various programs.

"I know you like this kind of life very much, but have you ever thought about a very important question. You are just a passer-by in this city. When you leave, everything related to you will be erased."

Li Lei said calmly, "One of the important reasons why I stopped you is that if you get too involved in the affairs of this world, you will have too many and deep connections with this world.

Once your connection reaches the point where it is difficult to be automatically touched, then you have violated the management regulations of the Time Bureau.

I think the system should have informed you about the time bureau, right?

Now that you know the rules of the Time Bureau and their style of doing things, I advise you not to challenge their authority.

In the Warring States Period, you were the monarch of the Qin Kingdom that the Six Kingdoms had to face with trepidation, but in front of the system, you were just a very simple piece of code.

It may be easier to kill you than execute Jing Ke. "

"Erase me?

Don't they know that I will unify the six countries? "

Ying Zheng retorted with a sneer, "If I disappear, who will unify the six kingdoms?

So where did Qin Shihuang come from?

Don't think that if you don't let me read history books, I can't help it. "

"Your Majesty the King of Qin, the most fearful thing about learning is half-knowledge.

I wonder if His Majesty the King of Qin knows what is the inevitability and contingency of history? "

Li Lei looked at Ying Zheng and asked.

Ying Zheng shook his head, so Li Lei continued.

"China will eventually unify, which is a historical necessity.

Because the division of the Seven Kingdoms and successive years of war have greatly restricted the development of productivity, and in order to break this restriction, China must be unified.

As for the country that will lead the unification is Qin?

Or Chu?

Or is it Qi State?

It may even be Xirong, Beidi or Nanman, it doesn't matter, it's all an accident of history.

Of course, among these countries that may lead China towards unification, Qin still has the best chance.

You have to thank your ancestors, they kept learning new production methods to improve the productivity of Qin State; especially the appearance of Mr. Shang Yang made your Qin State truly become a powerful country.

Do you think it's all your fault?

Without you Yingzheng, would Qin be over?

Perhaps after you disappeared, there was a period of internal turmoil in the Qin Congress, but soon your Qin Congress will once again achieve internal unity through your own rules and interests.

Mr. Yingzheng, do you think you must be the King of Qin?

What about Cheng Yu?

He also has some support within Qin, right? "

Li Lei's repeated words made Ying Zheng's face blush again and again, "So please, Mr. Ying Zheng, please abide by the relevant regulations and be your Majesty the King of Qin well.

After all, you have a very bright future, such as unifying China and becoming an emperor through the ages.

By the way, if you have some insights in the American political arena and these insights have not been cleared by the system, I hope you can solve your heir issue. "

"Then what do you think is the reason for the death of Qin Ershi?

How would you handle it if you were me? "

Ying Zheng asked back.

"There are too many problems in the late Qin Dynasty, you are like a chariot rushing to hell.

If you block the chariot, you will die; if you don't block the chariot, you will die. "

Li Lei said, "You have raised the position of Legalism too high, and even made Legalism a shackle that restricts your imperial power.

Because of the existence of Legalism, you refuse to adopt the theories of Confucianism, Mohism, and Taoism.

I don't think they are necessarily better than the Legalists, but they always have merit, right?

Severe punishment and harsh laws are necessary in wartime, but when the country has been unified, then what needs to be considered is how to rest the people's livelihood.

Since you have read history books, you should know how the Han Dynasty, which re-established a unified dynasty after you, did it?

Finally, it is also a key question, what a great success!

No one can't die, but you are trying to live forever, and then sacrifice your national power and position for your own selfishness.

To be honest, unless you become a different person, Qin Chao doesn't have any chance to come back.

As for the two heirs you are optimistic about, Fusu voted for the Confucianism you despise. Even if Li Si didn't try to kill him after your death, I think you will get rid of him at some point, right?

And your youngest son Hu Hai is completely under the control of Zhao Gao, especially Zhao Gao is the person who hates you the most. I really don't know how you believe in his loyalty. "

"Forget it, there are no ifs in history."

Ying Zheng was a little depressed, "And everything here is not just a dream for me."

Li Lei and Ying Zheng ended their conversation, and then they stopped discussing this topic.

On the night that Ying Zhengwan left, Li Lei naturally prepared a farewell banquet.

I have to say that Ying Zheng is indeed a person who can let go, so the farewell banquet went on very happily.

After watching Ying Zheng leave, Li Lei checked the system's rewards.

The system reminded that Ying Zheng didn't give him a gift, Li Lei could only curl his lips.

Then the three reward candidates given by the system are very "overbearing"

【Leadership Halo】

, 【Leader Mind】

and 【Leadership Temperament】.

According to the system, [Leadership Halo]

It can make people in the team more convinced of themselves, and at the same time, they have more possibilities to persuade others; [Leadership Mind]

Then it can make the recipient competent to be a person in charge in the political arena, workplace, etc.; as for 【Leadership Temperament】

It can make strangers have a sense of admiration for the winner, and then worship at the feet of the winner.

Seeing such a funny reward, Li Lei wondered if the core of his system had been replaced.

But after the system self-inspection, it indicated that he had not been replaced and reminded Li Lei to choose the reward as soon as possible, but Li Lei chose [Leadership Halo] after a little thought.

"Why do I suddenly feel that you are like a boss now?"

Seeing Li Lei's appearance after receiving the reward, Hamada Hiroshi said with some doubts.

"By the way, let's take a look at the monitoring content we just got."

Hamada Hiroshi showed the picture to Li Lei, "Dr. Akers really entered the secret room, and I let a detector enter the interior to lurk.

Unbelievable, the behind-the-scenes boss of this drug manufacturing factory is Doctor Akers!

And the purpose of this factory is to cover this secret room. "

In the Chamber of Secrets, Dr. X is lying in a container, which is connected to another container by a box.

When Dr. Akers pressed a button in the container, the electricity in the whole room became a little unstable, and even the monitor was disturbed.

But after half an hour, everything returned to normal.

At this time, a naked human-shaped pure energy body stood out from another container.

Doctor Akers became very weak because of this, and he ordered the energy body to be replaced with a set of external armor he designed.

The armored energy body was exactly the same as the strange man Li Lei had seen in the nuclear power plant back then.

The energy body quickly left the room, while Dr. Akers injected himself with a potion.

After about an hour, I saw the energy body returning to the room with a bag of banknotes.

Throwing the banknote bag on the ground, the energy body took off its armor.

"Don't you think this suit of armor you designed is ridiculous?

It's become a hallmark of mine, and whenever I'm in Gotham, that stinky bat will leave and come after me.

If I hadn't run fast this time, he would probably have discovered my true face. "

The energy body looked at the weak Doctor Akers, and said with great disdain, "If it wasn't for my life being bound to you, I would like to kill you now.

I actually take orders from you, a weak ant! "

"Yes, no matter how weak I am, you must obey my orders."

A perverted smile appeared on Dr. Akers' face, "I'm an ant, so what are you?

monster!

No, in terms of naming rules, a monster is at least an item, but what about you?

You are nothing but nothing, and you would still be nothing if I had not given you life.

So, be more diligent when I ask you to do things in the future!

I let you have a sense of presence, this is a gift, you should be grateful!

Also, have you found any medicine that can treat me?

If I die, you also know what will happen to you.

Do you think you have a chance to continue to exist after me? "

"you are vicious!"

The energy body said viciously, "You have to figure out the way for the medicine yourself, I have searched the databases of many pharmaceutical companies for you.

Your disease is too strange, I guess if you go to the hospital for treatment, the doctor will be helpless. "

"What about Horizon Pharmaceutical Group?

Since they can treat both AIDS and cancer, they should have a cure for me.

Even if it is an immature method, I still need it! "

Howled Dr. Akers, "I'm going to die!"

"I know, you and I are one, and I can feel your weakness."

The energy body said, "But the firewall of the Horizon Pharmaceutical Group is too powerful. I can only bypass their peripheral defense mechanism now. As long as their core database is touched, their system will immediately call the police, and then it will Seeing their core database disappear from the web in an instant.

It can disappear so completely, I guess it should be physical eradication.

Such a clever defense mechanism seems to be personal. "

"You mean artificial intelligence?

Do not make jokes!

Horizon Pharmaceutical Group is just a pharmaceutical company. "

Dr. Akers sneered, "No, their parent company does have a technology company.

But they are not involved in artificial intelligence. Now the top technology of artificial intelligence is in the hands of established Internet companies such as Google and several Japanese companies. Can they be as sensitive and authentic as you said?

I'm running out of time, so figure it out for yourself! "

Dr. Akers pressed a button and the energy body disappeared.

Dr. Akers injected himself with another dose of medicine, and then slowly left the laboratory.

"His target is us?

That's really interesting. "

Li Lei didn't expect that the other party was also looking for his own loopholes.

"It is estimated that our black technology in medicine has convinced him?"

Hamada Hiroshi made a little joke.
