"Thank you for your help." Zhuo Zhiwen's voice was dry, without any hint of gratitude.
Betty raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Actually, you shouldn't come to me. This is a dead end. If you want to get the answer, you should start from the very beginning."
"oh?"
Betty didn't go into details. She looked around, then came close and whispered: "Don't you realize? Not all consciousnesses that come to the earth are bad."
Zhuo Zhiwen has already thought about this, but under the leadership of Li Shaoan, Zhuo Zhiwen has been trying to gather these uncertain factors together, but has not thought about how to distinguish their good and bad.
But according to Betty, some "good people" have already shown up.
"What are the conditions?" Zhuo Zhiwen asked.
Betty smiled. Sure enough, chatting with smart people saves time.
"I want to go see Antarctica."
Zhuo Zhiwen was startled. Although she was wary, she did not refuse.
"Yes, but we have to wait until everything calms down."
Betty nodded: "No rush, as long as you agree."
Zhuo Zhiwen: "Can we talk about it now?"
After Betty thought for a while, she said, "Have you ever heard of the 'First Position'?"
"First position?" Zhuo Zhiwen frowned, she had no impression at all.
"I know a girl who has been to that place before. This is the address." Betty directly handed over a mobile phone.
Zhuo Zhiwen opened it and saw that a map software had marked the route.
Betty said: "I gave you the mobile phone, so I won't go there with you. Goodbye." Then she turned and left.
After Zhuo Zhiwen watched her leave the cemetery, she turned back and looked at the tombstone.
I saw that the name on the tombstone was not Betty at all, but a strange Chinese name called "Yan Xiren".
At the same time, far away from this remote cemetery, the second team waiting for Zhuo Zhiwen's appearance fell into the air. Their leader angrily asked the command headquarters: "Are you mistaken? Where is this place?"
Is there a shadow of a target?”
The command's reply was: "We are sure the target has arrived in San Francisco, please wait patiently."
"Gan!" The team leader was very angry. This was not because of his lack of quality, but because his younger brother had his neck broken by Zhuo Zhiwen during the operation last night.
So for him, this is no longer an arrest operation, but a personal grudge.
"Captain? Are we really just waiting here?" the deputy asked.
The team leader thought for a while and then said: "Contact the local branch, I want to activate the full face recognition."
The deputy was shocked that this was no small matter, but he did it anyway.
…
On the other side, in a forest farm on the outskirts of San Francisco, a group of people were quietly touching Zhuo Zhiwen's plane.
But when they found their target, the deputy who stayed behind in the plane also spotted them.
"I really don't want to give up..." The deputy turned the joystick, and then the guard machine guns that had been placed in the forest farm were activated. They rose from under the hay pile, and then set more targets, and then...
Only three of the dozen men in black who fell into the trap escaped, and the others were ruthlessly torn to pieces by bullets.
After the operation failed, the surviving personnel retreated outside the forest farm. Shortly afterwards, a fighter plane flew over the forest farm, and the center of the forest farm was blown apart.
When the flames soared into the sky, the deputy was startled, then frowned and said: "These people are crazy, they dare to do so in broad daylight"
Enable fighter bombing?”
But after saying that, she closed the screen with an indifferent expression. Anyway, the one in the forest farm was just a "scarecrow". By the time they found out that they had been deceived, they would have already flown away.
But when she saw that the time showed that it was 11:00 sharp, the deputy couldn't help but become a little anxious. She didn't want to escape back to the safe house alone.
…
Following the guidance of the mobile phone navigation, Zhuo Zhiwen found her destination smoothly.
But what was different from her imagination was that the small house in front of her looked a bit too fairy tale-like, and it was located in the center of a busy neighborhood. It looked like the "nail house" in "Up"
Extremely eye-catching.
Zhuo Zhiwen checked the time and without further delay, went directly to knock on the door.
However, no one responded after knocking two or three times. It seemed that the owner was not at home. This made Zhuo Zhiwen anxious. The longer she stayed in San Francisco, the more dangerous her situation became, but she was unwilling to see the clues cut off here.
Just as he was about to knock a few more times, a voice came from behind him: "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"
The other party spoke in English. Zhuo Zhiwen had grown up in the United States since she was a child, so there was no communication barrier. When she turned around, she saw an old lady who looked very kind.
"Oh, I have something I want to find out from the owner of this house, but it seems like he's not at home?"
The old lady let out a long sigh, and then sighed: "He went to China to find his granddaughter. He has been there for almost half a year."
China?
Zhuo Zhiwen was surprised: "Then do you know which city in China he went to?"
The old lady thought for a while and then replied: "Well, I remember it seems to be a big city in Jiangsu, but I don't know the details."
Uh...this is really a needle in a haystack.
But it is always good to have clues. She asked again: "Then I would like to trouble you, what is the name of the owner of this house?"
This time the old lady was a little wary. After looking at Zhuo Zhiwen for a few times, she said, "You came here without even knowing who he is?"
Zhuo Zhiwen was a little embarrassed, and she didn't want to, but Betty was so good at telling people off.
Fortunately, Zhuo Zhiwen had rich experience and explained: "Actually, I came here because of someone else's request, so..."
After hearing this, the old lady relaxed her vigilance a little, and then said: "Okay, okay, in fact, if you just ask around, you can find out his name. He is a stubborn old man in this area."
Zhuo Zhiwen laughed awkwardly.
"Sorry for your trouble."
The old lady waved her hand and then said: "His name is Spender Peter, and his granddaughter's name is Shelia Peter."
Zhuo Zhiwen wrote down the name and thanked the old lady again.
The other party didn't take it seriously and left after saying that.
After standing in front of the two-story "fairy tale" house for a while, Zhuo Zhiwen also left.
…
But at night, the fairy tale house lights up.
An old man opened the door and came out with a cane. He picked up the newspaper in front of the door, and then slowly entered the house.
But when he returned to the house, he found that there was someone else on the sofa.
The old man was startled, then said coldly: "Who are you?"
Zhuo Zhiwen, who was sitting on the sofa, stood up slowly, then looked at the old man and said, "My name is Zhuo Zhiwen, an investigator from the National Security Department."
After hearing this, the old man snorted disdainfully: "Investigator of the National Security Department? Can you break into a private house just by virtue of your identity?"
Zhuozhi
Wen didn't intend to argue with him, and said directly: "We are each other, and you are not the master here, are you?"
The old man visibly trembled when he heard this, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "I don't understand what you are talking about. Anyway, please leave here immediately, otherwise I will call the police."
Zhuo Zhiwen didn't take it seriously at all. She took out a photo from her shoulder like a magic trick and showed it to the old man, and said: "The real owner of this house disappeared in China three months ago. Because he has no one, he has no family.
So until now, most people thought he had gone to China and hadn't come back yet, but they didn't expect that you would check in right after he left, and even disguise yourself as an old man. Hey... Let's talk about it, a notorious drug dealer.
Why is the leader hiding here disguised as an old man?"
The old man understood that the other party had come prepared and knew his identity very clearly.
In this case, there was no need for him to keep pretending, so he stood up straight, pulled off his beard, took out a gun from his pajamas and pointed it at Zhuo Zhiwen.
"I've heard that there is an organization called the National Security Bureau with great powers, but I didn't expect that you would find me even after I hid here. Okay, since I can't hide, I have to work hard to survive." The old man who pulled off his beard
He turned into a middle-aged man with a fierce face.
He retreated to the shadows with the gun in hand, and his whole action was very skillful.
This is not the style of a drug dealer, but more like a professionally trained killer.
Zhuo Zhiwen suddenly laughed when she heard this: "What? Are you planning to kill me? And then run away?"
After retreating to the darkness, the man said: "I don't like shooting at women, but if you keep pestering me, I don't mind making an exception."
After hearing this, Zhuo Zhiwen shook her head and said, "Okay, don't be so nervous. I know you are not from this world. Let's be honest and sit down and have a chat, okay?"
The other party was obviously stunned, and even his breathing became much faster.
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Zhuo Zhiwen was not sure about this before, but since she noticed that the second-floor windows of the house were clean before leaving in the morning, she knew that someone lived here.
I just didn't expect that when I traced it all the way, I found something unexpected.
That is, there is a person who does not want to reveal his identity hiding here, and... this guy who does not want to reveal his identity seems to be the "good guy" that Betty mentioned before.
"Are you talking nonsense? You know better than me, but I hope you can realize that now that I have discovered your true identity, to you, I am either a threat or a hope. You can choose to kill me now and continue to hide.
If you go down, you can sit down and talk with me, take a gamble and see if I can help you."
At this point, the middle-aged man in the dark knew clearly that his disguise had completely failed.
But even so, he still didn't intend to believe anyone easily.
So, he raised the gun, pointed it at Zhuo Zhiwen's eyebrows and said, "Sorry, I don't like gambling."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled the trigger.
But at the moment of shooting, his muzzle moved slightly downward.
The bullet passed through Zhuo Zhiwen's shoulder, causing her body to tilt down.
At the same time, the man turned around and climbed out of the window and jumped into the backyard.
But before he could stand up and prepare to escape, his body trembled several times, his vision went dark, and he fainted.
The deputy who had been waiting for a long time came out of the darkness, kicked the man and said, "I don't know what's wrong!"
