Despite what the taxi driver said was outrageous, Chen Hao never believed his nonsense from beginning to end.
You know, what age are we in now? Except for some people who believe in religion, the vast majority of people are atheists.
No matter how mysterious the taxi driver made the No. 97 Building on Mayong Road, in Chen Hao's opinion, the reason why weird things often happen there must be man-made.
Moreover, it is precisely because of this that Chen Hao has a new view on Building No. 97...
In short, that is a "deception"!
…
In the past, whether Chen Hao was working as a mercenary in the Middle East or as a killer in Eastern Europe, for the sake of safety, he always had a secret stronghold of his own.
In layman's terms, this secret stronghold is his "home".
However, in order to make his "nest" safer, he would often set up various mechanisms around the "nest" to prevent outsiders from intruding.
However, not everyone is like Chen Hao, who is only satisfied with setting up traps around his "lair" - what's more, for the sake of safety, some mercenaries or killers even go as far as to completely cover their "lair". Be armed.
Of course, besides this, there is another way - that is to make up a story for one's "home" and make it a mysterious area that outsiders dare not step into...
Chen Hao has seen many tricks like this.
Therefore, after the taxi driver finished telling that story, Chen Hao had his own conjecture in his mind.
I can only hear——
"Interesting, interesting!" Chen Hao said "Interesting" twice, with the corners of his lips raised high, revealing a strange smile.
"This No. 97 Mayong Road is really interesting!" Chen Hao's eyes sparkled. He couldn't wait to reveal the secret of the No. 90 Mayong Road building.
However, Chen Hao's appearance made the taxi driver stunned. The latter was stunned for dozens of seconds before he came back to his senses.
"Little brother, are you a foreigner?" The taxi driver finally spoke, his tone was very anxious: "Do you know that locals in Yunhai City don't dare to mention No. 97 Mayong Road casually, let alone Talk about someone going to that place."
At this point, the taxi driver sighed meaningfully and advised with a serious face: "Little brother, listen to uncle, you can't go to that place, you'd better get off the car!"
But now, no matter what the taxi driver says, Chen Hao will not get out of the car.
"I'm going to that place." Chen Hao said decisively. His tone was full of determination that people couldn't refuse.
Seeing this, the taxi driver knew that he could not persuade Chen Hao, so he could only shake his head helplessly.
"Little brother, I really can't send you to that place." The taxi driver seemed to be very kind, thinking about Chen Hao at every turn: "You are so young, if I send you into a pit of fire, wouldn't it be harmful to you? ah?"
Seeing that the taxi driver was so kind, Chen Hao couldn't help but feel a little fond of him. Then, in a strange way, he said: "Well, then, just take me to West Street."
Although the taxi driver didn't know what Chen Hao was thinking, he was slightly relieved when he learned that the place Chen Hao was going to was West Street, not No. 97, Mayong Road.
"Okay!" Immediately, the taxi driver shouted and stepped on the accelerator...
…
In a taxi.
At this moment, only he probably knows how complicated Chen Hao's mood is.
In fact, ever since Shi Xinrui was almost killed by the mysterious man in a suit and sunglasses, Chen Hao had wanted to find out the latter and see who he really was. If possible, Chen Hao would definitely torture him to extract a confession. See
Find out who is secretly trying to take your life.
But some time ago, because Chen Hao was really busy, he had to put this matter aside.
But today, Hua Shanshan was kidnapped right under his nose. What was even more disgusting was that the mysterious man in a suit and sunglasses actually called to threaten him.
In this life, what Chen Hao hates most is being threatened.
Moreover, when Chen Hao guessed that the mysterious man in a suit and sunglasses might have been a mercenary or killer, he became even more determined to find him out.
After all, as long as the identity of this mysterious man is not revealed for a day, the danger to Chen Hao's life will always exist. If he wants to investigate the "Chen Tian case" ten years ago with peace of mind, then,
He must first deal with this mysterious man.
"Who are you?" Chen Hao was filled with doubts.
"Is No. 97, Mayong Road, your secret stronghold?"
"In other words, you are also a member of the Mafia Gang. And Building No. 97 on Mayong Road is where the branch of the Mafia Gang is located?"
Thousands of doubts spread in Chen Hao's mind; like a plague, they instantly occupied all his thoughts.
"Also, what is the relationship between you and Tang Ke? Why don't you let me treat his head?"
"Also, how did you find out about my promise to treat Tang Ke's brain? Could it be that there is an informant of yours in the Wild Bar?"
So many questions, so many speculations... But in the end, Chen Hao's thoughts were still chaotic.
And if he wants to solve this mystery, the best way is to investigate the building at No. 97, Mayong Road...
…
Twenty minutes later——
squeak!!!
The taxi that Chen Hao was riding in drove into West Street. For a moment, Chen Hao's thoughts were brought back to reality from his meditation.
Immediately, he turned his eyes and subconsciously looked out the window.
You don’t know if you don’t see it, but this look——
"So this is West Street!" Chen Hao couldn't help but sigh.
The taxi driver was seen parking his car steadily in a taxi parking space on a road. On both sides of the road, there were dilapidated and low-rise buildings, just like a small village in the 1970s and 1980s.
, giving people a different feeling.
At the same time, the taxi driver spoke——
"Little brother, this is West Street." The taxi driver's voice was low, and his tone was just like his character, extremely kind: "After you get off the car, you'd better be careful. People here are all here.
Those who live in society are prone to using knives and guns at every turn. It is best not to cause trouble that can be avoided."
The taxi driver thought that Chen Hao had just arrived from other places, so he reminded him everywhere.
Although Chen Hao was a little moved by this, he did not show it on his face.
"I understand." Chen Hao nodded and handed over a stack of banknotes.
However, the taxi driver did not pick up the truck.
"Forget it, considering that you and I are both outsiders, this bus should be considered free." The taxi driver shook his head and pushed back the money Chen Hao handed him:
"Also, if you are really interested in No. 97 Mayong Road, then follow this road until you reach the end. When the low house next to you disappears, you will see a five-story building.
Standing amid ruins."
"And this building is No. 97, Mayong Road!"
"However, I still want to remind you! If you are curious, it is best to just stand and watch from a distance, and never get close there!"
As soon as the taxi driver finished speaking, Chen Hao suddenly realized: It turned out that the taxi driver had dropped him at the intersection of Mayong Road. As long as he took a few steps forward, he would have entered the area of Mayong Road.
When he thought that Building No. 97 on Mayong Road was right in front of him, Chen Hao couldn't help but feel a little more excited.
"Thank you, uncle!" Chen Hao thanked him simply, and then put his hand towards the car door.
Immediately, he opened the car door, Chen Hao got out of the car and walked forward without looking back.
However, how could Chen Hao, who was focused on building No. 97 on Mayong Road, notice that when he just stepped into the area of Mayong Road, the taxi driver sitting in the taxi...
He took out a mobile phone and made a call.
At the same time, the corners of the taxi driver's lips were raised in a proud smile, as if the conspiracy had succeeded...
…
In terms of prosperity, West Street is far inferior to Yehu Street.
However, because West Street is a gathering place for industry and the textile industry, and its geographical location is extremely special, the economic conditions here are far better than those on Luohua Street.
To put it simply, the prosperity of West Street is between Yehu Street and Luohua Street.
However, because West Street is an old street, migrant workers have lived here all year round, and there is a mix of dragons and snakes, which inevitably causes troubles. In addition, the government's investment in this area is not large, making the overall look of this place just...
It's like a small town in a second- or third-tier city.
Therefore, when Chen Hao walked all the way from West Street to Mayong Road, the short houses beside him were either two-story, three-story, four-story, or five-story. In short, Chen Hao
The tallest building I have ever encountered is only six floors.
At first, Chen Hao was still curious and looked around as he walked along the street, so as to take a closer look at the geographical environment of West Street.
But slowly, when Chen Hao entered the area of Mayong Road, he unexpectedly discovered that at this time, there was not even a single figure around him.
"Hey." Chen Hao suddenly became interested: "When I walked here just now, I saw a lot of pedestrians on the road. But when I walked here, I couldn't even see a ghost."
What Chen Hao encountered was really strange.
It was as if a street was divided into two halves - the left side was bustling with people and pedestrians everywhere; while the right side was not even a single person.
What made Chen Hao even more curious was that the further he walked, the shorter the houses on both sides of the road became - two-story, three-story, and even one-story...
However, when Chen Hao walked further, he unexpectedly discovered that there was no house on either side of the road. What caught his eyes, apart from broken walls, was a piece of earth-like ruins.
——It feels like coming from the town to the countryside.
——And this picture is like the earth after the end of the world!
"This small Mayong Road is so interesting." Chen Hao sighed secretly: "It seems that the taxi driver was right, this place is really like a 'ghost land'!" (To be continued)
