It is already summer time, and the arrival of evening is a vivid indication of this fact.
Helmer walked out of the simple lounge of the roadside station and stood under the still hot sunset light. He squinted his eyes and used the hard-shell food packaging box as a fan to cool down his sweaty head while looking towards the front of the station.
That parking lot where the heat is rising.
There are several large cracks on the ground of the square. The repaired concrete that has solidified is still new, and its color is silvery gray. The air above is still distorted, and in the distorted air, there are all kinds of vehicles.
However, they all have a shabby feel, and they are mainly trucks of various types transporting goods. Most of the limo cars commonly seen in the field of view are extremely ordinary in appearance.
He somewhat understood why the appearance of the limo he was riding in had to be modified. When the transfer began, he always thought that the company introduced to him by his business allies did not have strong strength. Because he had indeed investigated it, after all, it was for him.
Service, and the most important thing, safety, cannot be ignored.
It is a company that has just been established. Compared with the well-known companies in this industry, it is like a newborn baby, which seems harmless and cannot be trusted.
However, riding in these simple-looking limo cars these past few days made him understand the professionalism of this company.
There should be other backgrounds that have only recently started a similar business. As a businessman, Hemmer certainly understands this pattern.
"Mr. Hemmer." The voice behind him interrupted Hemer's thinking. He turned to look at the man who came next to him. He saw that he had been wearing a thick black dress with long sleeves, but there was still no sweat on his forehead. He couldn't help but feel
sigh.
"I heard from my friend that among the many customers in your company, my level is only medium. To put it in my words, I have not yet qualified to become a senior member." Hemer knew some information and took advantage of it.
This opportunity asks, "A lot of businesses aren't available to me yet, right?"
The man on the side still showed no expression: "This is the work of other departments in the company. I have no way of knowing it, so I can't answer you, Mr. Hemmer. I'm sorry. However, if possible, after the geographical transfer is completed, you can directly
Contact the company and ask. I think professionals will definitely be able to give you a professional and satisfactory answer to this kind of question."
Helmer laughed: "Your company is indeed very professional, at least the internal management seems reasonable." He commented, "We will meet the last customer tonight, and we will arrive at the destination in two days? Follow this
road,,,”
He looked ahead, and saw a road more than thirty meters wide, with four lanes, slightly winding, on a land where the buildings could be counted with one hand, extending to the end where the ground and the sky meet. Still.
It's being maintained, and it doesn't look as shabby as I first imagined.
"Going in this direction is the border of neighboring Nortonthal Principality. Can we get there early tonight? It's not too far."
"Everything went well, as Mr. Hemmer said. When we met the third customer, it was shortly after entering the Principality of Nortonthal." The man replied, "But sir, you have also seen that even on such a route, there are many vehicles passing through.
Not much, but there were a lot of unexpected troubles along the way.”
Helmer sighed, thinking of the attack he suffered two days ago. The scene at that time was still deeply imprinted in his mind. It was not that he had never seen corpses. As a big businessman in an area, he had been exposed to the dark side. It was only that evening that he saw
The formation is indeed beyond cognition.
He thought it was more like a well-armed regular team belonging to a country, rather than what the man later told him, "Don't worry too much, it's just a small trouble."
He still doesn't know what the "big trouble" that the man added later will be, because he really can't imagine what kind of trouble would be more terrifying than a team equipped with artillery launchers. Thinking about that day, the enemy drove two vehicles erecting heavy weapons.
He didn't want to think about the scene when the machine-gun limousine caught up with the convoy and started shooting wildly.
He has seen firearms, and there are two brand-new magazine-type pistols in his luggage. Every year, he goes to a special place to practice shooting. Although it has not been effective for several years, it is just to give himself a taste of something new.
.Recalling what the enemy had in his hands that evening, he naturally considered more news about the war that had spread in recent months.
He thought it would take several years, but now, he feels that it doesn't need to be, maybe it will be in a few days.
Someone waved to them in the distance, and the man shook his arm in response.
"Mr. Hemmer, the supplies have been completed, and the next step is to stay in the limo for most of the day. And,,," the man looked at the time, "we will set off on time in seven minutes. Although this station is a bit simple,
Some food and water can still be purchased. If you need anything, Mr. Hemmer, please do it as soon as possible. The next time you rest, you have to go to the Principality of Nortonthal."
"I know, thank you." Hemo replied. The man nodded and turned away, walking towards the person waving at him.
At this time, Helmer fanned the hard-shell food packaging box hard, but the sweat on his head still did not decrease. Finally, he gave up and threw it into the trash can in front of the lounge, and he went back to the lounge.
On the other side, the man who walked over stood beside the limousine that was replenishing steam and fuel. The captain of another customer's escort team came, accompanied by a correspondent.
"Captain No. 17, there is a communication from the 'tavern' in the Principality of Nortonthal. One of their teams is rushing towards us. After passing the frontier, we are at the entrance of the Principality of Nortonthal where we are scheduled to go.
There seem to be traces of cleanup operations in that border city."
"I guessed that route 5 would not go well before joining you. You must also know what I encountered here two days ago. The artillery launchers carried by individual soldiers are products of the three giant countries.
, there were signs of damage. I guessed that there was a small-scale battle in the nearby area, and it was picked up by those people after it was left behind. When I reported it, the intelligence person said that he would immediately notify the 'tavern' to investigate. Be mentally prepared."
The man named Captain 17 replied, "There is a high probability that the itinerary will have to be changed."
"It will become more and more dangerous in the future. The company has also issued a notice. After a while, we may have to deploy people from the 'tavern' when we perform various tasks."
"We still have some time left, let's finish this geographical transfer first. Arriving at the Principality of Nortonthal is the first node. After that, we have to transfer to one of the coordinating countries, which will take even longer time."
"But the closer we get to the coordinating country, the safer it will be. The main thing is that 'taverns' are scattered in cities around the coordinating country, so it will be easier for us." Another person said, "Let's leave soon. This time I will
Walk behind."
"I'll see you in the limo later." After saying that, the two of them separated and walked towards their clients.
A few minutes later, more than a dozen limo cars left the station one after another at certain intervals of time and distance.
But a limo started to start at this moment, its engine was blaring, and it felt like it was running fast, as if it wanted to catch up with the convoy.
"Could the 'cleanup operation' they mentioned be the clue you want?" Someone in the limo asked, "Do you have to investigate it yourself? Wouldn't it be better to ask directly? You will know what happened in a minute.
"
"I have actually contacted you and I know the specific situation of this small country close to the border area of a large country. It's just that you don't know. In short, you can go back when you arrive at the coordinating country. Treat these few days' journey as a review course
