Chapter 694: Good morning, Wei An (please vote for the big chapter)
The night is already deep.
Towering buildings are scattered in the silent night, and dots of light fill the dark road.
And in the gap between the tall buildings, there stood a small building that was incompatible with the quiet and depressing surroundings.
Bright lights are arranged on the edge of the white wall outside the courtyard of the small building. At the end of the wall, there is a small hidden door.
Outside the small door is a dark and deserted alley, and directly opposite the small door is a flower bed that has dried up, leaving only dead soil. I don't know how long it has been abandoned.
squeak——
The closed door was slowly opened, and a burly man walked out of the door. Then he glanced around to make sure there was no one around, and then he took a step forward and moved out of the way.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man wearing a straight formal suit and a rather deep face walked out of the small door.
He leaned in front of the door, took out a cigarette from his pocket, held it in his mouth, and slowly lit it.
As the hazy smoke rose, the man's deep face relaxed slightly. He stared at the abandoned flower stand in front of him and suddenly asked, "Has that flower stand been abandoned for several years?"
"Abandoned in your second year in office."
The burly man standing next to him replied slowly.
After hearing this answer, the middle-aged man was silent for a moment. He raised his head and looked at the tall buildings around him, "I remember when I first came here, there were not so many buildings here. Now, even if there are no lights during the day, there are basically no buildings.
Nothing can be seen above."
"These are the newly renovated factories of QJT Group."
The burly man said slowly.
The middle-aged man took a puff of cigarette and fell into silence again.
The silent night wind blew through the worn and worn ground of the alley.
The middle-aged man's eyes fell on the abandoned flower stand again, and then his eyes narrowed slightly.
In the gap between the flower beds, there seems to be a lens that is slightly reflecting the dull light.
He took the cigarette out of his mouth, walked a few steps across the flower stand, and looked at the reflective items on the inside of the flower stand.
It was a pair of round-framed glasses leaning against the edge of the flower stand. The glasses were very delicate and had obvious signs of long-term wear.
It folds very well and seems to have been placed there on purpose.
And underneath the glasses, there was a leaflet.
"mayor?"
Seeing these glasses, the burly man was stunned. He turned to look at the middle-aged man.
"It's okay, not many people know that I like to smoke at the back door of the Mayor's Palace,"
The middle-aged man was very calm. He reached out and picked up the glasses and looked at the mottled and peeling paint on them. "It seems that an old friend has been here."
His eyes were deep, as if he was recalling something.
Then he put away the glasses and picked up the leaflet that was pressed by the glasses.
This is a promotional flyer for a bar, with gorgeous lights and hot-bodied girls.
This flyer comes from the Yuqianshu Bar in Nancheng. The flyer is about the drink discount event every Wednesday, which is from 7pm to 2am.
The middle-aged man turned over the flyer.
On the back of the flyer, there are still some hot photos of girls printed, and above the images of these girls, there is a line of words written in red handwriting.
[When a ship capsizes, neither the captain nor his treasure can survive.]
This is an old federal proverb.
Seeing this line of words, the middle-aged man's eyes narrowed slightly, then he turned the leaflet over and took another look at the content on the front of the leaflet.
At this time, the burly man next to him glanced at the flyer in the middle-aged man's hand. He seemed to have noticed something, and asked with some confusion, "Sir, is this?"
"An invitation from an old friend."
The middle-aged man answered casually, and then asked softly, "Tomorrow is Wednesday?"
"Yes," the burly man nodded, "Today is to be exact, it's already past midnight, sir."
"Tomorrow... do you have any plans for tonight?"
The middle-aged man continued to ask.
"There will be a charity ball at six o'clock in the evening. It is a charity organization affiliated with the Kjet Group."
The burly man replied.
"He said I was feeling a little unwell, so he pushed me and asked the secretary to bring a check for 10,000 yuan to show his sincerity."
The middle-aged man glanced at the flyer in his hand again, folded it up and gave instructions.
"OK."
The burly man responded.
There was an eerie silence between the two of them again.
The middle-aged man raised his head and stared at the end of the alley, the deepest part of the night.
There, there seemed to be a familiar figure, watching him quietly.

Si Enji's tired eyes lifted from the glass cabinets of the drug store.
The early morning light passed through the gaps between the buildings, and scattered a little on the road, and also on the small windows near the road. The bright sunlight mixed with large shadows hit the bodies of women and men.
In front of his field of vision, the projection on the wall of the drugstore was playing the morning news.
At the moment, the news is introducing the news of the "mercenaries returning home" of the Kjet Mercenary Group.
It was reported on the news that as the holidays continue, more and more members of the mercenary group choose to enter the city of St. John for a ‘vacation’.
The city government issued a special announcement telling citizens not to panic when they see mercenaries gathering on the road. They are just entering the city and returning home normally.
In order to prevent large-scale mercenaries from suddenly appearing on the streets, the city government also discussed with the Kejet Group to allow mercenaries from the Kejet Mercenary Group to enter the city in batches.
According to expert speculation, the day after tomorrow will be the day with the largest number of mercenaries in the city, and more than 70% of the mercenary group members will be stranded in the city.
"The day after tomorrow...we still have less than three days..."
Beside him, Yin Xiya was also standing in the middle of the pharmacy, staring at the projection TV. She sighed, "Can we succeed in such a short time?"
"We can only follow the original plan step by step."
Si Enji also sighed.
Hearing this, Yin Xiya just nodded slightly.
She knew what the 'original plan' Si Enji was talking about. After Si Enji came back last night, he had told her in detail all the arrangements made by 'Mr. Sito'.
She also understood what kind of enemies she was about to face and how difficult this road would be.
But she knew very well that she had no choice.
It is not possible to avoid death by surrendering, let alone that it is impossible for them to surrender.
After thinking about this, her body swayed and she almost fell.
She has been in a stressful and high-pressure environment during this period, coupled with the thrilling escape last night and staying up late for more than one night last night.
Even for a D-class transcendent, her body could no longer bear it. At this moment, she lost consciousness for a moment, and a severe dizziness hit her brain.
But there was a small hand from behind that gently supported her.
She turned her head and looked down at Jia Qian, who was standing behind her.
She was stunned for a moment.
At dawn, Jia Qian woke up once, then sat on a stool nearby, closed her eyes, and seemed to fall asleep again.
But the stool Jia Qian was sitting on was on the other side of the room.
Yin Xiya suddenly discovered that, as a D-level transcendent with an ability that favors observation and analysis, she was completely unaware of Jia Qian's coming movements just now.
She had no idea when Jia Qian appeared behind her.
This is a child less than ten years old.
"It seems I should take a break."
She paused, shook her head, and gently held Jia Qian's little hand.
I just assumed that I was too tired, so I didn't notice Jia Qian's movements.
She turned back and looked at Si Enji, "So Mr...."
"I don't know either."
Si Enji shook his head, "Let's do what he arranged first."
"Um."
Yin Xiya raised her head, looked at the projection TV that was still broadcasting news, and nodded slowly.

"Sir,"
Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the ornately decorated office. At this moment, the solid wood door of the office was pushed open. A young man wearing a brand-new officer uniform opened the door and looked at the man in officer uniform sitting at the innermost side of the office.
"arranged?"
The officer uniformed the man and put down the documents in his hand, raised his head and glanced at the young man.
"All the underground smuggling agents have already said hello,"
The young man paused for a moment. He looked at the officer and the man in uniform.
"Sir, why do you want to find those underground intermediaries? If Yin Xiya is afraid of being reported by the city defense army when registering out of the city, and wants to sneak out of the city, wouldn't it be better to sneak into the convoy of the Kjet Group?
"The KJET Group's convoys are exempted from inspection when entering and exiting the city. They can directly bypass the city defense army. According to my information, most of the stowaways sneak out of the convoy. There are also dedicated people in the convoy doing this.
This business.”
The man in officer uniform looked up at the young man and asked, "Who is protecting the convoy?"
"It's a mercenary group." The young man was stunned for a moment. "There is a mercenary group outside the city, and the group's bodyguard company is inside the city."
He immediately reacted and suddenly realized, "There are people in the bodyguard companies in the city who have merged with pollution monsters. They can clearly distinguish the pollution aura carried by Yin Xiya.
"Although Yin Xiya may not know about this, after knowing that the pollution monster may be related to the group, there is a certain chance that she will be able to think of this level. In this way, she will not rely on the Kajet fleet that is exempted from inspection, but will go to those
The route is more troublesome and the charges are higher for the 'underground agency'."
Then he lowered his head and thought again, "Then how long do we have to arrange for these intermediaries to search and pay attention? These people are old slickers. They may be afraid of our intimidation at first and help us do things. After a long time, they may not slack off.
If Yin Xiya keeps hiding and avoids our search, waiting for the storm to pass..."
"soon,"
The man in officer uniform lowered his head and continued to read the documents in his hand, "There will be a good opportunity soon, and she will not give up this opportunity."
The young man was stunned for a moment.
Then his bracelet vibrated.
He raised his bracelet and glanced at it, then his whole body froze, and he looked at the officer man in front of him with some surprise.
"Sir, an underground agency sent a message saying that he has just received a commission. The employer is a woman with her face covered. She claims to be taking a child and a long box that can hold one person out of the city, and she named her.
You can’t go through the channels of the QJET Group team.”
He took a breath, looked at the information on the bracelet again, and continued, "And their time request is very urgent. They will leave the day after tomorrow. The agent told me that he felt that the time was too urgent and was ready to refuse."
Usually, these intermediaries arrange their orders a few days in advance, with intervals of just over a day. They are basically considered urgent orders, but not everyone has the ability to handle urgent orders.
"The long box may be a coffin containing Sito's body," the young man thought, "Where is the little girl..."
"According to our investigation data, Sito also has a granddaughter who is less than ten years old."
The man in officer uniform looked down at the information in his hand and said calmly.
"So?" The young man was stunned, "But why is it the night after tomorrow?"
The man in the officer's uniform did not speak, but quietly stared at the uniform on the young man.
The young man was confused for a moment and then immediately realized, "The intermediaries in the city can get through the city defense army, but there is basically no way through the mercenary groups outside the city.
"Most of the mercenary groups outside have entered the city the night after tomorrow. The remaining ones are also on vacation and have no intention of patrolling. I'm afraid they will stay near the camp. If she sneaks out that day, she has the highest probability of success. Even if she is discovered, the people who stop her will be
It will be less than others.”
The man in the officer's uniform glanced at the young man approvingly.
At this time, the young man also realized that he had successfully performed in the superior's place and met the superior's appetite. He suppressed the joy in his heart and continued to ask, "But, is that Sito really dead?"
"I'm going to ask you," the man in the officer's uniform looked at him calmly, "You were at the scene last night, what did you see?"
The young man thought for a moment and then said, "We all know the director's power. I saw with my own eyes the director's sword inserted into Xi Tuo's chest last night. Even if he killed the director, I'm afraid he would still suffer.
The injury was very serious. Regardless of whether he died or not, he should have lost his fighting ability.
"He can't help Yin Xiya while he is alive. Yin Xiya has to escape in order to save the two of us. If he dies, Yin Xiya needs to escape even more. The commander has a clever plan and has anticipated this, so he arranged for me to go to those underground intermediaries in advance.
.”
He raised his head and glanced at the man in the officer's uniform, and carefully continued to express his judgment,
"I prefer him to die, because even if he is seriously injured, as long as there is still a glimmer of life, he will not be put in a coffin and smuggled out of the city. The target is too big, and it is too easy to be discovered, and these intermediaries will definitely start by then.
A coffin is used for autopsy, because the prices of living and dead objects are different, and the transportation methods are also different.
"He wanted to disguise himself as a corpse and sneak out. Essentially, he was gilding the lily. It was unnecessary."
"good,"
The man in the officer's uniform nodded approvingly. He looked at the brand-new uniform on the young man and asked casually, "Does this clothes still fit you? You guys transferred from the Pollution Cleanup Department. You were in such a hurry that I didn't have time to prepare something more suitable for you.
clothing."
The young man was stunned. He thought for a moment and quickly replied, "It's a little inappropriate, but we can adapt!"
"good!"
The man in the officer's uniform looked up at him and said, "Contact the intermediary and ask him to accept the commission, and I will leave this matter to you."
"yes!"
The young man immediately stood up and performed a less than standard military salute.
Then he turned and left the office.
After he left completely, the man in officer uniform completely put down the documents in his hands. He glanced at the city outside the window, then pressed a button on the desktop, and an internal video call was connected.
The old man sitting in front of the chessboard appeared in his field of vision.
"gentlemen."
The man in the officer's uniform relayed the information he had just received about the intermediary and the young man's judgment to the old man.
The old man said nothing.
After a brief pause, he raised his hand and removed the black rook that had penetrated the deepest part of the chessboard.

Kaya City
In the quiet and dark hall, fine bubbles slowly floated in glass containers filled with white liquid.
These bubbles floated from the bottom of the container to the surface of the liquid, and with a subtle bursting sound, a faint light lit up in the middle of the hall.
It was a silver-gray metal box that was as long as a person, with streaks of white light shining along the pipes below the metal box.
Immediately afterwards, the fine lines on the box were lit up by the flowing light like a flowing river. These lights gathered together to form a huge World Tree pattern that filled the entire box.
Card--
The tightly closed lid of the metal box was suddenly pushed open, revealing the pure white liquid that almost overflowed inside.
boom--
Two muscular hands stretched out from the liquid and grabbed the sides of the box.
Next to the box, a floating screen also lit up, showing the image of a little girl in a white dress, with pieces of prepared clothing being delivered by robots from all around.
The little girl stared outside the screen,
"Good morning, Wei An."
At the top of the hall, the originally dim ceiling lights lit up one after another like a rigorous guard of honor for the king.
