Abyssal Wanderer

Chapter 132 NO.0083: Additional Investment

After finally resting for half a day, Jiang Zhou received a voice message from Booker early in the morning.

【Deep Blue came back from the 'Tenth Floor' last night, you can ask her today to find out about the resettlement area government's attitude towards rebuilding the geothermal power plant. In addition, regarding the matter of Theseus' warehouse, I also communicated with her clearly]

Fortunately, I didn't post a private channel...

Seeing the notice in the message, Jiang Zhou thought a little fortunately.

After all, Liao Qi's stand-in program is now being used by himself. Right now, Liao Qi, who is in the base reality, cannot authenticate anything that requires the Mandala code.

However, what is the attitude of the resettlement area government?

After converting the voice file into text, Jiang Zhou looked again at what Booker asked him to do.

Restarting a geothermal power plant is a major project involving the lives of hundreds of thousands of people—even if they can use a universal printer to cheat and solve 90% of the problems, the remaining 10% of the volume , It will also make the manpower of the Icarus Liberation Front stretched.

Among other things, just how to get hundreds of thousands of tons of printing materials and transport them safely to the seventh floor is already an extreme test of an organization's ability to operate - they must find safe and reliable legal channels Otherwise, if they really find a black market dealer to smuggle hundreds of tons of pig iron, the other party will only think that the Icarus people have some brain problems.

Taking a step back, even if someone in the black market is willing to accept such an outrageous order, I don't know how long it will be delayed in the end.

And Perse Fanny, or rather, Pluto Deep Diver was only willing to give them two months.

Therefore, as the stipulated time draws closer, whether they can get the full support of the government departments in the resettlement area becomes crucial.

It is foreseeable that they will definitely reach some compromises with the government of the resettlement area afterwards.

"Okay... Today I have to squeeze the elevator up to the negative floor again."

Throwing the information into the trash can for destruction, Jiang Zhou scratched his head and complained.

The elevator is the passageway between the various floors. Due to the huge flow of people, the situation of "blocking the elevator" often occurs in the elevator shaft.

In Liao Qi's memory, he was stuck in a traffic jam for four hours in the past, and because the air conditioner in the elevator was broken, he was almost baked into "dried fish" because of too much water loss-in the end, he risked his life , climbed more than 50 meters along the elevator cable before finally escaping.

Perhaps it was because of the memory that Liao Qi almost lost his life this time, Jiang Zhou was very resistant to taking the elevator.

During the washing period, I did a long time of psychological construction for myself. In the end, Jiang Zhou packed up his clothes, put on a bright yellow coat, and planned to go out to find Dark Blue on the first floor.

Then, when I opened the door, I saw her.

The dark blue who was standing at the door at the moment was not dressed so gorgeously as in the bar before, but a very casual sports attire.

A sky blue sweater and a pleated sports skirt, and a plain white tennis cap with no decoration on his head. Her blue hair was gathered in a high ponytail at the back of her head, and there were sports wristbands on her white wrists.

If there were still beads of sweat on her brow, it would really look like the kind of rich girl who just came home from tennis.

"ha?"

For a moment, Jiang Zhou was stunned.

Why is it that the other party came to the door instead? Also, how did she know where her home was?

"Boom boom boom."

He raised his hand and knocked on the void a few times, with a deep blue smile imitating the sound of knocking on the door, and then said:

"Good morning, Liao..."

"Snapped!"

Before she finished speaking, Jiang Zhou subconsciously closed the door.

It must be because I have been under too much mental pressure recently that I have this illusion.

Close the door, he thought.

However, there was an urgent knock on the door.

"Hey, how can you be so rude!"

Deep blue's voice came in through the crack of the door.

After opening the door again, Jiang Zhou complained with an unhappy face:

"Why are you here?"

His tone was full of vigilance.

As for this, the dark blue eyes gradually widened, looking at Liao Qi with some disbelief and saying:

"Ah? You don't even know? I sent a private message in the encrypted channel earlier saying that I will come... Didn't you see it?"

Sorry, can't see...

Jiang Zhou thought to himself, and then said:

"I just woke up not long ago, and I haven't had time to look at it... So what is it that came to me?"

"Don't worry about what it is, are you going to just stand at the door and talk about it?"

Shen Lan's expression was a little speechless, and she slammed the door directly in front of her face, and blocked the door with the whole person, without any intention of letting herself in - if this person hadn't saved her life before, according to her usual With her temper, she should have turned around and left long ago.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhou shrugged, and then stepped aside from the door.

"Come in, there's nothing to entertain at home... Ah, don't take off your shoes."

He turned around and walked into the house and said.

Deep Blue poked in cautiously. She looked around the small house where the walls were covered with cheap wallpaper and the water pipes in the corners of the room were still leaking, and she said:

"Actually, this time, there is only one thing I really want to say - I was replaced by the 'tenth floor', and now a newcomer is in charge of taking charge of the first floor. In the future, I should not be able to stand up in your fights What a big deal."

Jiang Zhou sat on the old sofa and let it make a dangerous "creaking" sound. Then, he quietly hid the simulating small movie memory on the armrest of the sofa, and then said:

"Substituted? I remember that's not what you said when you planned to go back to the 'tenth floor' to seek justice."

Jiang Zhou still remembered that Deep Blue was full of confidence to make those attackers pay the price.

How could it be broken in just one day?

In the messy room, I finally found a fairly clean chair and sat down carefully, Shen Lan said:

"Because the government of the resettlement area is essentially a labor dispatch company under the skin of the government. As a company, what they maintain is efficiency, not fairness—now that my cost-effectiveness is gone, they naturally don't care what it is. Whose fault."

Deep Blue's voice was very calm.

But after hearing what she said, Jiang Zhou realized that she had another purpose for coming here in person this time.

"Actually, on the surface, the smashing of the bar didn't cause much loss, but in fact, my biggest loss was my reputation... What happened before, the signboard of the 'Dark Blue Zone' that has been stabilized underground in the resettlement area in the past few years can be regarded as a complete loss. smashed...

"Of course, these things can be redeemed, but those old men on the tenth floor don't intend to do this. They think that instead of continuing to maintain a relationship, it's better to change another sign and find one that has less conflict of interest with the security center on the first floor. Candidates go up."

The dark blue who sat dignifiedly on the chair continued.

Regarding this, Jiang Zhou frowned and said:

"Is it that simple to change the agent? It's easy to change."

As an agent of the tenth-level government on the lower level, Deep Blue has been cultivating the intelligence market for so many years, how can it be so simple to replace it? Over the years, apart from having no armed force, how many contacts and channels did she have in her hands?

Just throw it away? This is too wasteful, right?

Regarding Jiang Zhou's question, Deep Blue just snorted coldly:

"Waste? A piece of toilet paper is only used for more than a dozen percent of the time, and the rest is just to ensure that their hands don't get shit on them."

It must be admitted that Jiang Zhou was shocked by the other party's metaphor.

So he hurriedly asked:

"So, what's next for you?"

Shenlan sneered at first, and then said:

"They sent me over to discuss cooperation with the person in charge of your Icarus Liberation Front. And after this matter is over, they promised to arrange a job for me in the 'Lighthouse' on the tenth floor. I will probably To be able to retire in that idle job ... that's what they want."

The "Lighthouse" is a landmark building on the tenth floor of the resettlement area, and it is also the office building of the interim government of the Nord resettlement area.

"but?"

Jiang Zhou could hear dissatisfaction from her tone.

Deep Blue glanced at Jiang Zhou approvingly, and then said:

"But I don't want to give up my hard work over the years, and I can't accept being thrown away like toilet paper... So, you Icarus wanted a new order before, right?"

Jiang Zhou nodded.

"If there is a place for me in the new order, then I plan to invest more in you and have fun together."
