Chapter 49: Spirits and Bitters

Everyone looked around and saw that in his backpack, in addition to the HK416 with the butt of the gun and some ammunition, there were two cylinders wide at both ends and narrow in the middle. There was a row of small lights on the middle cylinder. When there was daylight,

It's very inconspicuous.

"This is...a reconnaissance robot?" SCAR recognized the cylinder. It is a product of GMC (General Machinery Corporation), a reconnaissance robot. It can drill into more complex terrain and use its own high-definition camera and audio reception

There are some professional models that even have thermal imaging, heartbeat detectors, and life detectors, but the wine Long Yue got is just a basic model, with only a high-definition camera and a high-fidelity audio receiver.

"That's right." Long Yue took out one and bumped it in his hand. The machine was only slightly larger than his hand: "Let it do it for us today."

Everyone felt relieved. It seemed that Long Yue was really prepared. This kind of thing was in Alpha's equipment library, and the price was the ex-factory price. And the price of this thing on the black market was very high.

Not cheap, this should be prepared in advance.

"Okay, boss, you are really prepared." M4 took the car from his hand. The wider ends of the cylinder are two wheels that can rotate forward or reverse. The camera is fixed and can only

Relying on the rotation of the robot to observe the surroundings is also for strength considerations.

"Okay, has the control software been downloaded? Let's go. Just press the location on the map. The signal should be able to cover the entire target area." Long Yue marked two places again.

"Go ahead and put on your makeup."

After a while, three people came out of the alley. Although their clothes were all neat and tidy, their faces couldn't hide their disgust. The three people identified the direction and hurried away, just like the vast majority of people running for life in the slums.

Same. After they left, two people came out of the alley again. This time they were a man and a woman. The woman was SCAR and the man was Long Yue. There was also a slight malnutrition on their faces, and Long Yue was also.

He put on a large windbreaker to slightly cover up his muscles which were more developed than ordinary people.

"I might be crazy for wearing a windbreaker this month." Long Yue wiped his sweat with a resentful look on his face. It is already June. Although the temperature is not as exaggerated as the dog days of summer, it is not a temperature where you can wear a windbreaker.

.In just a few minutes, the white sweat on Long Yue's body had already seeped down his back.

"The disadvantages of training muscles." SCAR snickered from the side.

"This is the mark of a man." Long Yue looked proud.

"Then suffer a little for your mark."

"It doesn't matter if it's a hot spot, but I think wearing a windbreaker this month will be as conspicuous as Tyson." Long Yue fiddled with the hem of his clothes. Strangely enough, no one noticed him with such a weird outfit.

"It's not bad. There are quite a few people who do prostitution in these slums. It's understandable if they wear such thick clothes."

"A pretense?" Long Yue looked confused when he heard this term.

"Don't you know it's a pretense?"

"I've never heard of it... What's the problem? Epilepsy?" Long Yue began to search for words in his stomach that could be related to "pendulum".

"No...it's completely different. In medical terms, it's malaria."

"Malaria?" Long Yue looked at SCAR in surprise: "I thought this disease was eliminated many years ago, just like smallpox."

"Yes, this kind of disease is not seen at all in the blue zone. Even if you get it, as long as there are no accidents or it takes too long, most people can recover within a day. But think about it, you are in the yellow zone now.

.”

"It's not in the yellow zone, right? Artemisinin doesn't exist, doesn't it even include quinine?" As soon as Long Yue finished speaking, he saw him shaking his head and saying SCAR, and the second half of the sentence choked back in his throat.

"Really not?"

"What do you think? This kind of drug is not that cheap now, not to mention that both of these drugs have limited ability to treat malaria. They can only use new broad-spectrum antibiotics, but the price of that..." SCAR did not

Keep talking, this topic is always the harshest topic, no money, no life, both.

After being silent for a long time, Long Yue shook his head, and the heavy look on his face faded: "Forget it, let's not worry about this for now, let's go."

"Then you windbreaker..."

"Be patient, isn't it normal?" Long Yue smiled: "After all, it's not really a show-off. Before the heatstroke, it had no effect on me."

"Can……"

The two of them turned left and right in the streets and passed by many people. Just as SCAR said, although there are not many people suffering from malaria in the yellow zone, in this slum, this kind of malaria in previous centuries

Diseases that have caused great harm to human beings are still rampant here. Long Yue did not receive any strange looks on the road. On the contrary, many people walked around when they saw Long Yue like this, for fear that they would also be infected.

What shouldn't be there?

"Unexpectedly, the effect is not bad." Long Yue lifted up his windbreaker and fanned himself. His hair was now as if it had been soaked in water, and beads of sweat were falling down from the ends of his hair.

"Take it off quickly, you will be kicked out if you wear this outfit again." SCAR grabbed Long Yue's collar and pulled it down.

"Don't, it won't be good if someone finds out that you are a PMC." Long Yue wrapped himself more tightly.

"I think too much. PMCs are everywhere now. We have just met several amateur PMCs."

"...Does that mean I can't be exposed at all? Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Long Yue took off his windbreaker, which was half soaked with sweat, with a very clean and neat movement.

"I originally wanted to tease you, but in the end, who knew you could really persist all the way..." SCAR knew that his tactics were too much, and his voice became much softer.

"Am I...or is it my fault?" Long Yue looked like he was about to cry. He suddenly felt that his seemingly exquisite arrangements were just like a fool.

"Okay, okay, let's go in. It may not be useless. At least that blue face helped FAL solve a little trouble." SCAR comforted.

"Ah, thank you." Long Yue thanked him bitterly and opened the door in front of him.

This is a small bar. The place Long Yue found is very good. This bar is very close to the target point. It is just like countless bars in slums. It has no name and no signboard. You can enter by opening the door. There are rich people here.

There are good wines for people to drink, but there are also low-quality wines for poor people to drink. This kind of wine that I don’t know how to make is very strong. Good wine should be gentle and long-lasting, never overpowering. And this kind of wine is specially made for you.

I'll hit you on the head, and I won't stop until I hit you and make you dizzy. The price is not expensive, you can make a small pot for two yuan, sit down and grab a handful of peanuts, and drink by yourself. Wait until you feel dizzy.

When I feel dizzy, all the fatigue of the day has been cleared away. At this time, I go home and lie down on the bed, waiting for the calendar to turn another page, and then repeat the previous day's life until I can't do any more work.

Yue and SCAR randomly picked a seat and sat down, doing as the Romans did and ordered a bottle of wine.

Long Yue grabbed the wine bottle and smelled it: "This stuff...why doesn't it feel like serious wine?"

"It really doesn't matter. Most of them are blended with high-purity alcohol, and some are self-brewed." SCAR explained.

"Tsk, tsk, you can make your own wine without paying taxes, it's a huge profit."

"It's not that violent. After all, it's just buying wine. It's much worse than any well-off family in the blue zone." SCAR poured two glasses of wine. Long Yue picked up one and drank it down.

"Pfft, what is this?" Long Yue squirted directly, and the stimulating feeling like capsaicin lingered in his throat for a long time.

"Strong liquor." SCAR took a sip. It could be seen from her expression that she didn't like the taste very much.

"This is too harsh."

"If you want a happy drink, drink it happily. You really know this." SCAR said with a smile: "The faster you drink, the faster you will forget it."

"Forget it, I'd better not forget about the business." Long Yue dropped the wine glass, put the robot on the ground from his bag, and picked up his mobile phone. After debugging, a row of small yellow lights on the robot lit up.

It is difficult to detect in daylight.
