Early in the morning, Xu Huo walked out from the Supervision Department again.
The sky outside is bright, but it's not bright at all. Not only are the overly complicated buildings blocking the sky, but also because of serious environmental pollution, the sky is overcast. It's not only raining, but also foggy, making it extremely dull.
However, it is quieter in the morning than in the evening, and only relatively normal people are active.
Xu Huo held the umbrella of the Supervision Department, ate a bowl of noodles on the roadside, found a store with a "house for rent" sign on the front and walked in.
The person guarding the door was a woman wearing heavy makeup. The quality of the cosmetics was probably not very good, so there were patches of different shades on her face. The powder would fall off if she rubbed it. Her eye circles were darkened and she was yawning constantly. Yes.
The customer who came to the door was not very welcoming and threw a shabby book to him.
"The forked house has been rented out. You can find it yourself. The price is above."
The screen wall that separates the east and west areas runs north-south, and generally looks like a straight line. There is a river next to it. The safe residential area Lin Guang said is beside this river. The closer to the river, the higher the housing prices. Going in the opposite direction
The prices are gradually decreasing and the environment is getting worse.
Xu Huo finally rented a house that cost one thousand and one months not far from the shadow wall. This was the result of bargaining. Judging from the very simple house structure diagram on the brochure, the house was not much better.
The boss carried a bunch of keys and took him to see the house on an old modified aircraft.
The residential area in the West District is in the shape of a terrace. There are many floors upstairs and downstairs. The Supervision Department where Xu Huo reported is in the middle. There are deeper places as you go down, but the closer you get to the screen wall, the deeper the structure becomes.
It gradually shortens and becomes flat near the rental house. At least looking down from the rental house, there is only one floor of buildings below. And this building is still far away from the river.
The boss opened the door, pointed to the old and not very clean room and said: "It has a separate bathroom, toilet, and a window for cooking. You can also see the screen wall when you come out. It saves you not even having to turn on the lights at night."
The boss is not entirely joking. The so-called shadow wall is actually a high wall made of high-tech materials that can simulate the surrounding environment. During the day, this wall is open. Looking from the river, you can only see the scenery along the shore.
Similar to grassland and river water, when the effect is turned off at night, the shadow wall will become transparent. Not only can the light from the other side be cast over, but the city in the East District can also be seen from here - what Xu Huo saw last night lit up half of the sky.
The light comes from the east side, so it makes sense not to use lights near the river.
Anyway, the colorful lights in the West District are just like that once they are turned on.
Xu Huo walked around the house awkwardly and asked, "Is there anything better?"
The boss looked him up and down and said, "Yes, yes, let's see if you can afford the money."
In the end, Xu Huo settled on a rental house worth RMB 2,000, about five hundred meters further on. If nothing else, it was at least a little clean.
There were many people renting houses nearby through their bosses. The boss also collected the rent when he went there, and Xu Huo also met several neighbors on both sides.
Like most of the western districts I saw on the way, the residents here looked malnourished, but they were slightly better dressed, and the children in some families were relatively clean.
They were very wary of new residents. Except for two elderly people who asked roundly about Xu Huo's origins and work, the others were not even willing to talk to him, and would even actively avoid looking at him.
The rent in the West District only needs to be paid monthly. Xu Huo gave him a month's money, and after getting the key, he went out to buy daily necessities.
When he was met by the bald trio, he had no other luggage besides his wallet. This was actually a big flaw, but no one from the Supervision Department cared about him, and no one asked about his past, such as where he was trained, etc.
It's rather like treating him as a passer-by.
The mortality rate of personnel in the Supervision Department is high, and it is normal for the old youtiao to have this attitude.
However, Xu Huo still planned to replace a "stolen suitcase" for himself in two days.
After comparing prices, he bought all the daily necessities. When he returned to the rental house, he met his new neighbor upstairs. The neighbor invited two girls and walked downstairs, chatting and laughing. When they passed by, they winked at him and said, "Come upstairs in the evening."
Come and play with us."
Xu Huo avoided them and went upstairs without looking back, which caused a burst of laughter.
Returning to his house, he closed the door and observed the surrounding situation while tidying up the house. He had already looked around when he went out to buy things. Except for the aircraft that passed by from time to time, there were no reconnaissance and jamming instruments in this area, so
Only then did he let go of his spiritual world and check everyone in the nearby blocks.
In just ten minutes, he found five players.
Two of them used props to cover their residences, and they were processing the props on themselves at this time. They were most likely players from outside the area.
The physical evolution status of the other three people is not much different from that of ordinary people, but the space rays released from the clothes they wear are wrong, so they should be protective clothing that can modify body information. One of the three people is sleeping, and the other
The two were busy working like ordinary residents on the street.
For safety reasons, Xu Huo did not go further, but focused on a nearby sensual place.
This kind of place is relatively deserted during the day, but someone happened to be delivering something inside. On the surface it was some fruits and vegetables, but there was an injured person hidden under the metal partition. This person was transferred from three streets away and passed the intersection.
When I was there, I even had a photo with the dark-skinned delivery boy.
The wounded man was sent directly to the back kitchen and was hidden behind the freezer by a cook.
After a few minutes, a slovenly-dressed doctor came over and left after a simple bandage treatment.
Only then did the chef ask the wounded man how he was injured.
It's a pity that this person is not from the Resistance Army. The specific situation is probably like this. He was an undercover agent assigned to another force organization. He was discovered while exploring a channel for the other party's illegal goods. He was almost killed. It was very difficult.
Escaped, and this person also brought back another news, that is, their hostile forces had contacted a stable seller from nowhere, and would soon sell them a batch of obsolete thermal weapons.
This involves a battle between the underworld, but the identity of the seller who can supply a certain amount of weapons is not simple, so Xu Huo followed the chef to meet the owner of the store. Out of his understanding of his opponent, the owner was sure that the seller of these weapons must be from the East District.
In order to win this struggle, he plans to show greater sincerity and personally contact the people from the East End.
The store owner contacted an intermediary, asked him to set up a meeting platform, and invited the manager of the "frozen processing plant" to meet.
