In order to avoid that scary woman Nangong Li, I said goodbye decisively and fled the central tower like the wind. Of course, before I left, I did not forget to tell Xiaoba and Xiaoha that they would live here in the future.
To be honest, it's really helpful that they can understand human speech now, otherwise there would definitely be a lot of trouble.
All in all, let’s go to the self-service teller machine to withdraw some cash and then go to the mall to buy a new communication tool.
After using a PAD for office use for so long, let’s switch to a multi-functional entertainment phone this time. Anyway, I will still be disturbed when I should.
With this in mind, I walked to the automatic teller machine and withdrew about 2,000 in cash.
Then he moved to the intelligent machinery mall.
The so-called intelligent machinery mall, of course, refers to a large mall that sells intelligent machinery. Robots are also sold. Most of them are cleaning robots or intelligent systems such as home appliance butlers.
But this time I just came to buy a mobile phone.
"Sir, do you want to buy a mobile phone? I highly recommend this latest smartphone to you, which is equipped with highly user-friendly AI and..."
"I bought it."
"Eh?"
"I bought it."
"Yes! Okay, okay! A total of twenty-nine thousand eight hundred yuan."
"Give."
"Um, okay, thank you for your patronage, and welcome to visit next time."
After paying with a card and activating a communication account, I didn't stay long and left.
Enough with the sales pitch.
After leaving the mall, I found a burger restaurant and sat down, ordering a hamburger pizza set to fill my stomach before going home.
Not long after, a burger, pizza, a large cup of Coke and French fries were served.
Turn on your mobile phone and browse the latest news while eating junk food and drinking happy water. It is a rare comfort.
"By the way, I wonder what's going on with Zod."
It's not clear whether Ona has contacted Zod. Let's call him first and ask.
By the way, what's Zod's contact number?
"It should be this right."
Thinking back carefully, I dialed a number based on the impression in my memory.
After a while, the call was connected.
[Hello?]
"Zod, it's me."
I felt relieved when I heard Zod's familiar voice coming from the phone. It seemed that I had not dialed the wrong number.
[Lian Ye? Are you back?]
"Ah, I just came back from a mission, how is the situation over there?"
I took a sip of ice coke and said.
[Not so good. There's some trouble here. What was that sound just now?]
"Nothing, I'm eating a burger."
[…]
"Hello Zod?"
I don’t know why the other side of the phone was suddenly silent.
[Anyway, you'd better come to the base as soon as possible. I can't make up my mind on this matter alone.]
"Wait, what exactly is..."
【beep--】
"..."
I'm hanging up the phone now. What is the situation that requires me to come over to solve it...
If it's something that gives Zod a headache, I don't have the confidence to solve it at all.
I looked at the uneaten box of hot fries on the table and thought it would be too wasteful to leave it here without eating. I chose to take the box of fries away after paying.
It doesn't matter if you go to the base to eat.
"Hey, this handsome guy, where are you going?"
"Shenwu Road South Residential Area."
I hailed a taxi on the side of the road. Although it might be faster to take a shortcut and run there, that would be a bit much. You can't always rely on physical strength, but you also have to use the power of money occasionally.
"Okay, please put on your seat belt! Let's go!"
The uncle driver stepped on the accelerator and rushed out.
I suddenly had a bad feeling. This driver looked strangely familiar.
More than ten minutes later...
【vomit~~~~~】
When I finally got out of the car, I retched on the side of the road. I remembered that it was the driver I had met one day before!!
The urban area was fine in the front, but as soon as we reached the remote roads with no people around, it started to get crazy. It was really enough!
"Anyway... ugh... let's go to the base first..."
Holding back the vomiting feeling in my stomach, I took a few deep breaths to calm down and walked towards the family base.
We arrived after walking for about a few minutes.
The so-called family base is the high-end housing nearby that was bought by Zod. I don’t know how much it cost, but the place to live is definitely enough. It is not only sufficient, but also luxurious enough. To be honest, such employee treatment is
Not too good.
The base has temporarily chosen the largest luxury residence, with six floors, an underground wine cellar, an indoor hot spring, a courtyard and a private swimming pool. All the main operators live in it, and there is also a room for me, but
I've basically never lived there.
The doormen on duty were the same young guys from before. They recognized me immediately and invited me in nervously and respectfully.
Do I give them such a terrible impression? I'm so nervous, but I won't fire you.
Well, that's normal. I don't show up here very often.
Anyway, let's go find Zod. Although I'm not confident that we can solve the problem, I'm quite curious about what's bothering that guy Zod.
I remember Zod's office was on the top floor.
"……never mind."
My fingers paused before pressing the elevator button.
It's better to take the stairs, there are only six floors anyway.
"I'm back, Zo..., excuse me."
I immediately closed the door a second after pushing open the door to Zod's office on the sixth floor.
What did I see?! My opening method must be wrong!
I can understand that Ona is in there, because I asked her to find Zod, and it seems that she did it, but why is the red wolf in there too!? Why are the two of them confronting?!
And Zod looks like he has a headache, which is completely a sign of a super troublesome event unfolding!
Huh? Wait, Red Wolf is here? I remember I didn't tell her where my family base is... Although it is possible that she knew it through her own investigation, but... She went directly to Zod's office, and it didn't look like it was
It's like looking for Zod.
Well, this guy Red Wolf probably has no chance of running away with the tracker.
Originally I just planned to try it, but I didn't expect it to take effect immediately. There is no need to find my PAD as soon as it is traced back to Luo'an City.
I'm not a big shot, I'm just the leader of a small family.
[Du Lulu——]
Just as I was worrying about what to do, the phone rang suddenly.
I turned on my phone and saw that it was a call from Zod.
[Don't run away, Chief, this is your mess, you can handle it yourself.]
"..."
Don't make it sound like I did something bad!!!
Alas, there is no other way. Since it is directed at me, I can only solve it.
After hanging up the phone, I plucked up the courage to open the door again and walked in.
Immediately two sharp gazes shot towards him.
Both Ona and Red Wolf stared straight at me, which made me swallow secretly. I didn't do anything to feel sorry for you.
All in all, let's find a way to ease the tense atmosphere.
Ahem.
"Want some fries?"
What the hell am I talking about!!!!
Although the fries are very fragrant, it’s not the right thing to say at this time, right?!
