After Chen Mo and Meng Ren finished their work, they returned to the safe house by chance.
Old Dingtou has woken up.
Chen Mo took out his cell phone and showed Lao Dingtou a glance at Gong Lianshan and Lao Er, who had their heads shot.
"The murderers who killed your whole family have all been solved."
Old Ding struggled to sit up, looked at the phone carefully and nodded.
"Did they reveal who was behind it?"
Chen Mo glanced at the fierce man: "He was my former boss."
Old Dingtou's expression changed drastically.
"Don't worry, you are my boss now."
After a long silence, Old Ding put his hand on Chen Mo's head.
Purple light flashed, and a string of numbers appeared in Chen Mo's mind out of thin air.
"The front is my anonymous account number and password at the Swiss bank in my home planet, and the back is the 64-digit transaction code I left for the notary company. Find any Rose Star notary office, tell them the transaction code, and someone will take you to the headquarters for notarization.
"
Chen Mo was stunned.
"The mastermind behind this is still alive."
"yes."
"I haven't completed the commission yet."
"I just woke up and forgot everything again. The intervals between my amnesia are getting shorter and shorter, and the things I can remember are getting less and less." Old Dingtou took a photo: "I want to fulfill my promise before all my memories disappear.
My promise."
"Aren't you worried about me taking the money and running away?"
"We are the same kind of people. If I fulfill my promise, you will not break your promise."
Chen Mo was silent for a long time and sighed.
Old Dingtou stood up holding the head of the bed: "I have no descendants. I don't want to feed the results of a lifetime of hard work to the dogs. Only those who inherit my hatred are qualified to inherit the inheritance. This is why I came to you."
Chen Mo understood everything.
You treat me as a nobleman of the country, and I will repay you as a nobleman of the country.
The fierce phone rang.
It's an inspector.
The fierce man looked at Chen Mo with a questioning expression.
"You can't run away if you come." Chen Mo said calmly.
The fierce man picked up the phone.
"Why do you want to help others mess with me?" There was no emotion in the inspector's voice.
"When I took this business, I didn't know it had anything to do with you." The fierce man replied, "Your people killed his whole family."
"Ding Zhaodong from the Department of Administration did not stand in line, but secretly checked my accounts and reported them to the chief. Shouldn't he die?" The inspector was unhurried and said: "I only ordered the killing of two adults."
The fierce man remained silent.
"Huang Liang, can you still look back?"
"It's useless to talk more. I know you well."
The fierce man hung up the phone.
On the other end of the phone, Inspector Zhai raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"Do it."
Mercenaries wearing body armor and armed with large-caliber firearms kicked open the door of a slum, threw two blast bombs, and then sneaked in tactically.
There was no fierce man in the room, and there was no Chen Mo.
A low-frequency signal receiver is particularly dazzling.
…
"Are you sure you want to wade into this muddy water?" Chen Mo threw a cigarette to the fierce man who inserted a ceramic plate into the bulletproof vest.
"The inspector can't let me go." The fierce man knew himself: "So, where are we going?"
"Didn't you always want to see my safe house?"
"Good guy, are you willing to take it out now?"
"Hmm." Chen Mo took out the Defender pda from his big bag, entered the coordinates, and opened the navigation: "Don't bother with Sosou. Are there any good cars?"
"Grass, it's too late to get it, so just open it." The fierce man threw the key.
Huang Liang took care of Old Dingtou, while Chen Mo drove.
After passing through the wilderness, the car did not stop and headed all the way towards the wilderness.
The fierce man was a little dumbfounded.
“Your safe house is in the wilderness???”
"Um."
"Can we call it a fucking safe house?"
"cannot."
Chen Mo and Meng Ren's mobile phones were thrown away, and there was no phone card location. Before the inspection used big data screening, they were transparent people on the Internet.
There is enough time to make adjustments to combat readiness.
After driving for four hours, the ATV stopped in the wilderness nearly a hundred kilometers away from Cote City.
What appeared in front of the fierce man and Old Dingtou was a small hill.
"This is your safe house?" Meng Ren looked at the bare hills and was speechless.
"F113 semi-sunk underground fortress...how did you find this thing?" Old Dingtou sat up from the air mattress and looked excited: "There are actually underground fortresses left behind."
"What?" The fierce man asked with a question mark on his head.
"The home planet was the base when the Ross star was first colonized." Chen Mo got off the car and explained: "At that time, the Straker ecosystem on the Ross star was still alive, and the protozoa were extremely aggressive, so in the early days, human outposts could only be built in the established
The underground city was struggling to survive. Later, the Straker ecosystem was cracked, and the native creatures of the Rose planet retreated into the depths of the wilderness. Humanity's frontier outposts became the prototypes of cities."
The fierce man's eyes popped out.
"You mean, you have a dungeon?!"
"No, it's an unfinished underground city." Chen Mo said regretfully: "I don't know what happened, and there is no record. This underground city only has the above-ground matrix part."
"That's a city too!"
Chen Mo was noncommittal.
Leading the two of them around to the bottom of the hill, a black alloy gate three to four meters high stood tall.
Chen Mo pressed his palm on the identifier.
"Mr. Chen, Mo, first level authority, permission to enter." The electronic synthesized voice sounded.
Accompanied by the harsh squeaking sound of metal friction, the door slowly rose and the LED headlights turned on.
This so-called hill is entirely covered with fortresses, covering an area of more than 10,000 square meters.
"The nuclear energy core can last four to five hundred years if you use it sparingly. I have thrown away all the expired and damaged things in the fortress and replaced them with new ones. It's a pity that there are no heavy firepower weapons, otherwise it would be perfect." Chen Mo held a cigarette in his mouth.
.
Old Dingtou seemed to have forgotten his pain and kept looking at the fortress.
"This should be a civilian model, not a military model."
After observing for a long time, Old Ding came to a conclusion.
"Yes, you agree with me." Chen Mo nodded: "It should be a civilian company that sneaked into Ross Star through the star gate without reporting it. Unexpectedly, as soon as we put down the base, we encountered an attack from Straker's ecosystem.
, the army was defeated, and everyone was destroyed here."
"Didn't you see the skeleton?"
"It has been cleaned up long ago, otherwise I would face skeletons every day?"
Chen Mo took the two of them to the main control room.
It has to be said that even if it is a civilian product, there is no fault in the quality of the items in the watchtower.
After all, it is prepared for interstellar wasteland development.
More than a hundred years later, the main control computer is still easy to use.
"Victor, turn on the phone."
From the top of the main control room, a silver-white metallic mechanical arm fell. There was something like a projector at the front of the mechanical arm.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Chen Mo, it's already evening. Please spend more time with your family after get off work."
"I'm going to blanch! This thing is interesting." The fierce man asked excitedly: "What is this?"
"Urban AI, that thing that Walnut Shell Technology Company is trying its best to promote."
“Isn’t this the fortress city from a hundred years ago?!”
"That's right." Old Ding sighed: "Russ is rich in resources and the land is full of gold, but after leaving the home star, there is a lot of lack of basic science. Many things have to be learned from scratch."
Chen Mo nodded, deeply convinced.
The F113 mother body is divided into two floors above ground. The upper floor is the storage room and the lower floor is the combat readiness area.
The center is the energy room.
The energy room is extremely large, occupying more than 60% of the entire area.
When the Fortress was built, yridium ore had not yet been mined, and the F113 used a nuclear fusion matrix with uranium as the power core.
The matrix core is wrapped with a thick layer of thermal insulation panels.
What Chen Mo said is true. When used normally, this energy matrix can also provide the fortress with electricity for 570 years.
The owner of this fortress must have originally planned to develop an underground city, so he did not design a living area.
Many items in the storage room had expired, and the room that was left vacant when they were thrown out had been transformed into a bedroom by Chen Mo.
In this way, it is not a problem for thirty or fifty people to live in the fortress.
There are 6,000 tons of fresh water, mountains of food, various medicines and daily necessities in the storage room.
The combat readiness area stores enough thermal weapons to arm a platoon, an armored vehicle, and two military-grade ATVs.
This is almost the 'safe house' that Chen Mo has invested all his savings in for more than two years to build.
The fierce man was amazed and convinced.
The combined savings of all the bounty hunters in Cote City are not enough to buy an F113.
"I finally know where you spend your money."
Chen Mo lit a cigarette: "Is this safe house okay?"
"That's great." Mengren sighed sincerely.
Detecting smoke, the mechanical butler Victor's robotic arm stretched out.
"After burning tobacco and inhaling it, you will ingest a large amount of nicotine and tar, which are carcinogens. Long-term smoking of tobacco can induce high blood pressure and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases."
"Hahaha, I'll blanch it, this thing is too skinny."
"It's just a specific trigger AI." Chen Mo put out the cigarette butt: "We can prepare a message to the inspector and ask him to bring people to die."
"good."
Twenty minutes later.
Old Dingtou was forced to enter the medical warehouse by Chen Mo.
The previous surgery was too crude, and the medical warehouse was repairing the wound for Old Dingtou.
The red sun is gradually lowering on the horizon, about to draw the curtain of night.
Chen Mo got a machine gun, set up a defensive position above the fortress, and waited for the inspection to arrive.
There was only one machine gun, so the fierce man could only grab two more high-power rifles to block the passage that Chen Mo must pass through if he wanted to attack.
Surrounded by rocks, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Both men wore night vision goggles.
"Mengren, get ready to turn on the phone."
"receive."
The Mengren mobile phone has two SIM cards, and a spare SIM card is always carried on the person.
After plugging in the backup machine, Mengren called the supervisor.
Three rings and the call was connected.
"Mr. Zhai." The fierce man held a cigarette in his mouth: "How do you feel about being fooled?"
"You can set up countless baits, and I can fail countless times." The inspector's tone remained unchanged: "But you can't make one mistake."
"There is no deep hatred between us, why are you chasing me?"
"I gave you money to help you with your affairs, why would you help my enemy?"
"Because what you did was wrong."
"Only children can tell right from wrong." The inspector smiled.
On the other end of the phone, the inspector borrowed the most advanced signal positioning system of the Law Enforcement Agency and had found the source of Mengren's signal.
This time the fierce man is in the wilderness, not in the city.
Even if he uses a signal proxy node, he can't go too far.
This is a self-inflicted trap.
The inspector shook his head and hung up the phone.
Mud-legged people are just mud-legged people. You never know how much more advanced the regular army is than them.
Do you really think you are absolutely safe in the wilderness?
The inspector called the mercenary leader.
The leader is a tall man of nearly 1.9 meters, with several stitched scars on his face. He is twisted like a centipede and looks extremely fierce.
The mercenary team he leads is a well-known armed group that commits crimes in the central and northern regions. Since they usually do some dirty work for major companies and live in the wilderness, they happen to be missed in every anti-crime and evil operation.
The inspector also spent a lot of money to call them to Cote.
The mercenary leader took over the coordinates.
"Working in the wilderness requires extra money."
"Didn't we negotiate the price in advance?"
"The firefight in the wilderness may cause unrest in the Straker ecosystem, and we need a higher increase in money."
"..." The inspector was silent for a few seconds: "How much should I add?"
"Forty percent of the transaction price is paid in one lump sum, with no final payment."
"Are you just raising prices on the ground?"
"No, it's industry rules. If you find it unacceptable, we can refund the deposit."
"...Forget it, that's it. I'll ask my secretary to get it later."
The mercenary leader tilted his head.
"The rules are the rules, don't get excited, next time you will get 20% off."
…
The sky is dim.
The night fades.
The already sleepy man was woken up by Chen Mo's caffeine sniffing stick, which signaled him to look through the telescope into the distance.
The car lights flashed in the dawn, and a total of five cars in front and behind were approaching the coordinates given to them by the inspector.
"Three ATVs, one SUV, and one civilian armored vehicle, what a huge battle." The fierce man smacked his tongue: "There are no less than twenty people on the other side."
"Afraid?"
"Afraid of me!"
"Then don't hug me so tightly."
"Oh." The fierce man let go of his hand and continued to observe the incoming enemy: "There are two small drones above. They should only be able to detect those without firepower configuration."
"Estimate the distance."
"Hmm...about six hundred meters?"
"The detection range of the 50nm wavelength infrared detector is about five to six hundred meters. You have ten seconds to shoot down the two planes in the sky, otherwise we will wait to be exposed."
"I'll blanch it!!"
The fierce man picked up a sniper rifle equipped with a silencer, loaded it, and aimed at the drone in the sky.
In an armored vehicle…
"Head, there is a heat reaction 700 meters ahead. I'm not sure if it's a human being."
"Well, keep going and don't interrupt your observation."
"yes!"
Suddenly, the drone's screen flashed, and then turned into a screen of sizzling snowflakes.
"Day!" The person in charge of monitoring quickly took off his earphones to reduce the noise.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know, maybe there's something wrong with the link." The monitor picked his ears and said, "It's okay, the drone has an automatic flight device and will not crash."
"Won't he be shot down?"
"If it is shot down, there will be no problem with the camera. The first thing that will break down will definitely be the power system."
The leader nodded: "Yes, let's switch to the backup machine."
The fierce man blew the smoke from his gun.
That shot just now was so accurate.
One shot hit the drone's electrical energy core.
The drone surveillance system and power that lost power were cut off in an instant, which resulted in the snowflake screen inside the surveillance system.
The drone glided and crashed into the wilderness.
The fierce man targeted the second drone.
Chen Mo stopped him from shooting and took out a can of paint from somewhere.
"Put it on your body, expose less of it, and put it over to hit."
