"Um?"

Hai Xi looked at He Ao blankly, "Haven't you seen him many times?"

"But I didn't remember what he looked like,"

He Ao shook his head.

At this moment, he finally understood why Jace and Thorne both called the mysterious man the 'Mysterious Man'. For such a person who could not even remember his appearance, it could only be described as mysterious.

The most powerful thing about the mysterious man is not only that people can't remember his appearance, but also that before Hai Xi asked about the mysterious man's appearance, He Ao didn't realize that he had no memory of the mysterious man's appearance.

He recalled many scenes of Jace communicating with the mysterious man in his mind, but he never noticed anything wrong with the mysterious man's appearance.

Combined with the fact that Thorne chose to trust the mysterious man without any basis, it seems that the mysterious man should have some ability to profoundly change the thinking and memory of others.

And He Ao didn't know whether the mysterious man's ability could only go so far.

If he could blur his face and characteristics, could he appear in front of Jace with another identity?

Perhaps without noticing it in his memory, 'Jace' had seen the mysterious man a long time ago, and even had a close interaction with the mysterious man.

But when He Ao recalled the memories in his mind, he couldn't notice anything unusual.

This may be because the mysterious person has not come into contact with Jace in any other capacity, or it may be that, just like before, He Ao alone was unable to detect the problem of this memory before being accidentally awakened by a third party.

Thinking about it this way, Thorne realized before that he shouldn't trust the mysterious man so easily, and it was also because of He Ao's question that he was awakened.

People in the fog cannot see the scene in the fog.

However, He Ao currently does not have the appearance of the mysterious person, nor does he have other more specific information, so it is unrealistic to ask Haixi to help investigate the mysterious person.

As He Ao continued to walk forward, he said slowly, "Then don't investigate this person for now. Do me a favor."

He raised his bracelet and sent a piece of information stored in his personal cloud disk to Haixi, "Can you help me investigate who is purchasing these materials on a large scale in the black market recently, and where are these materials going?" where?"

"Foxtail grass, purple night orchid, ghost-faced flower..."

Haixi opened the file, glanced at the names of the materials recorded on it, and then looked up at He Ao, "Are these herbs from the wilderness?"

"Yes,"

He Ao nodded slightly, "These medicinal materials are slightly toxic or hallucinogenic. They are restricted medicinal materials and are not easily available on the market, but they should be available in the underground black market."

The herbs listed by He Ao are some of the medicinal materials that will inevitably be used in the process of manufacturing genetic medicines, but they only account for a small part of the actual raw materials.

Mysterious people can easily provide other synthetic chemicals and herbs needed in the production of genetic medicines.

The Huiermei Group itself is the second largest medical consortium in the federation. It owns a large number of drug patents and pharmaceutical factories, as well as many medicinal gardens that specialize in cultivating herbal medicines, so there is no shortage of medicinal materials.

Among all the medicinal materials needed for genetic medicine, only these herbs have not yet been artificially cultivated by the Federation and need to be picked in the wilderness.

At the same time, due to their toxicity and hallucinogenic properties, these herbal medicines are strictly controlled by the federal center and major cities. If you want to import these drugs from the wilderness through formal means, you need to go through complicated procedures. Even a mysterious person cannot do anything about it. Obtain a large amount of medicinal materials in a short period of time.

Of course, there is still a way to quickly obtain a large number of import licenses through the relationship with the Huiermei Medical Consortium.

But this exposes the fact that the Huiermei Medical Foundation is now in urgent need of these medicinal materials. Whether from the perspective of the medical industry or the city of Wetland, the Huiermei Medical Foundation is not the only one, but there are many. One of the large consortiums.

Large-scale import of these special drugs will inevitably arouse suspicion and investigation from other consortiums and competitors. Therefore, in order to keep the genetic medicine project confidential, the Huiermei Medical Consortium will not use its own strength to help import drugs unless it is absolutely necessary.

In this case, legal means are difficult to get around, so the mysterious person has no choice but to find a way to smuggle drugs from the wilderness through the black market and use less legal means.

Having laid siege and consumed a large amount of genetic medicines before, the mysterious man should now be producing new genetic medicines at full capacity.

Therefore, if you follow the flow of these drugs in the black market, you are very likely to find another genetic medicine laboratory established by the mysterious person.

"I know a few big smugglers who smuggle these medicinal materials,"

Haixi closed the file interface, "I will try to find a way to help you investigate, but there is no guarantee that I can successfully obtain the information you want."

"It doesn't matter, just help me investigate,"

He Ao nodded. Now he could see the warehouse door in front of him when he raised his head. He turned back and looked at Hai Xi, "How to calculate the commission fee?"

Judging from what Haixi just said, investigating these medicinal materials is not an easy task, and Haixi's own resources must be used.

Although after fighting side by side last night, he and Haixi had established some kind of mutual trust like comrades-in-arms, but this mutual trust was based on entrustment of interests.

Strictly speaking, the two of them are just partners with a relatively good relationship. For such a difficult entrustment, the accounts still need to be settled clearly.

"We'll wait until the results of the investigation come out,"

Haixi lowered his head and thought for a moment, "I'm not sure whether I can complete your commission. If I'm lucky and my informant knows the information directly, the cost will be much lower. If I'm not lucky, I have to fight with those old guys. If you deal with it, it will be troublesome.”

"sorry to bother you."

He Ao had already reached the warehouse door. He put his hand on the warehouse door and slowly pushed it open.

"No trouble, that's what the middle of us eat."

Haixi smiled and stared at the warehouse door that slowly opened, "So are you really ready to let Thorne go?"

"We are not kidnappers," He Ao shrugged and walked into the warehouse. "We normally invite Mr. Thorne to play. Now that he wants to go home, we can't stop him. We have to abide by the law."

Haixi looked at He Ao's back slowly disappearing into the darkness, and was stunned for a moment.

Could this guy really be a law-abiding person?

Obviously he strikes harder than anyone else, he is crazy and ruthless.

But thinking about it carefully, He Ao did specifically tell her last night to 'invite' Thorne and not kidnap her.

She did invite her and was very polite, and Thorne accepted the invitation very cooperatively.

As for the heavy machine guns surrounding Thorne at that time, they were just delivering goods and happened to be there.

Unconsciously, Haixi felt as if he had gotten into He Ao's thinking circuit.

She shook her head and followed He Ao into the warehouse.

It was He Ao who arrested him. She just accepted He Ao's commission yesterday. How to deal with it was also He Ao's business.

······

In the warehouse, He Ao communicated with Thorne again and sold the modified G-04 laser cannon to Thorne for 9.3 million, and then sold the four modified G-04 laser cannons to Thorne for 300,000. The SUV was also sold.

It was also equipped with some firearms for a total price of 9.7 million.

He Ao repeatedly confirmed with Thorne that there was no forced purchase and sale, and then signed an electronic contract with Thorne.

The price of Heao is also very reasonable. The off-road vehicle only earns half of the profit. Although the laser cannon earns more, it is a modified product and is very different from the original G-04 laser cannon. The charge Reasonable modification fees are also normal.

The transaction between the two took the form of payment first and goods later. Thorne first paid the payment to He Ao through cryptocurrency, and then He Ao gave him the things.

In the process, He Ao gave Thorne a new bracelet to transfer money and observed Thorne's movements in real time.

It was obvious that Thorne was distressed when it came time to pay.

Even though he had been in business for so many years, he couldn't quickly come up with nearly 10 million federal dollars in cash. It took him half an hour to find friends in the bank to get enough money.

When he was transferring money to He Ao, his eyes seemed to burst out with fire.

He Ao suggested that he drink more hot water and be careful about getting angry.

Of course, He Ao is a person who keeps his promise. After Thorne transferred the money, He Ao immediately asked Haixi to pull over the laser cannon and off-road vehicle and released Thorne's men.

Haixi didn't feel much about the fact that He Ao had made several times the money by changing hands.

He Ao was able to sell things to Thorn at such a high premium because he had made a lot of preliminary preparations. In any other scenario, Thorn would never be taken advantage of.

Moreover, He Ao's skill in modifying laser cannons is indeed superb, and this skill is indeed worth a lot of money.

So this is actually money earned based on strength.

Then, just when Thorne had just finished paying the money and was a little dazed, He Ao arranged for someone to take him out and put him with his men.

The strong smell of garbage hit them instantly, and Thorne and Thorne's men subconsciously covered their noses.

Seeing this scene, Hai Xi subconsciously glanced at He Ao, who had a calm face and did not make any cover up.

"Jace, you said you would escort us away."

Thorne stood next to the laser cannon, looked at He Ao and shouted.

The laser cannon was brought by He Ao, so it is now placed directly at the entrance of the warehouse, while the off-road vehicle requires Haixi to transfer it from other places, which will take some time.

While waiting, Thorne's eyes kept falling on He Ao.

He Ao didn't care and walked over directly, "If a friend is leaving, it's natural to give him a gift."

Seeing He Ao coming over, Thorne subconsciously took a step back, then steadied his body and pretended that nothing happened.

Just as the off-road vehicles arrived one after another, Haixi's bracelet vibrated. Then she glanced at the message and quickly waved to He Ao.

"What's wrong?"

He Ao saw her movements and asked curiously.

"There are anonymous people offering rewards for your traces on the underground black market," Haixi said quickly. "The person who finds you can get a reward of up to one million. If anyone kills you, he can get fifteen million directly." bonus.”

"Well, did I raise the price again?"

He Ao smiled and nodded.

"You have to be careful."

Haixi said softly. "Such a high bounty is enough to drive all the gangs in the West District crazy."

Fifteen million is a huge amount of money that can be spent on for most people in the Federation.

Even a middleman like Thorne, a middleman from Wetland No. 2, would have a hard time scraping together 10 million, let alone 15 million.

This money can allow any gang novice to transcend his status in an instant and live a high-society life.

Money moves people's hearts.

"I see."

He Ao nodded slightly.

"Are you going to escort Thorne out? Will you come back after leaving?"

Haixi glanced at Thorne who had already started to get into the car in the distance, and asked softly.

"Not for the time being. I have something I need to verify," He Ao said slowly, "If you find anything, just send me a message directly."

Last night, He Ao and Hai Xi each saved each other's contact information.

"Okay," Haixi nodded,

"Be careful, Thorne is not a good person. He must have some good things to use to save his life or attack over the years, but I found nothing on him.

"Besides, Thorne didn't have good intentions in letting you escort him. You have to be careful. I'm still waiting for you to pay me the commission fee. Don't let me work in vain."

"rest assured."

He Ao smiled, said goodbye to Hai Xi, turned around and walked into Thorne's team.

Most of the seats in the convoy were taken, except for the co-pilot seat in the front car.

He Ao walked to the SUV and opened the passenger door.

After taking a look around, he saw that the modified laser cannon was set up on the roof of the second car in the entire convoy, just behind He Ao's car.

And Thorne was also sitting in that car.

Then He Ao withdrew his gaze and looked at the driver of the off-road vehicle in front of him.

There was a white ring mark on the driver's hand, which was the mark left by wearing the bracelet for a long time.

Thorne's men all handed over communication equipment capable of contacting the outside world at Hexi's polite 'invitation'.

Haixi didn't covet these equipments. They were all placed in the rear seat box of the first off-road vehicle.

The Zarot area extends in all directions, hiding all kinds of secret paths, like a maze.

He Ao and Thorne alone would definitely not be able to find the way, so Haixi arranged for a teenager on a motorcycle to lead the way.

This young man was riding very fast, and the driver of the team stepped on the accelerator and made many twists and turns to catch up with the rear of his car.

However, because of this, everyone quickly left the core area of ​​Zarot Block and approached the edge of Zarot Block.

After walking for a while, the boy on the bicycle stopped, waved goodbye to He Ao, and then disappeared into the garbage.

At this moment, the entire convoy can already see the normal and dilapidated streets outside. A little further ahead, there is the West District.

He Ao looked back at the vehicle Thorne was riding in. The vehicle was moving very slowly, as if it was wary of possible attacks from around it.

Thorne is still worried about He Ao, fearing that Haixi and He Ao will set up a siege here again.

And He Ao saw a few children lying on the dilapidated small building in the surrounding garbage piles, looking down curiously.

Although they were quickly picked up by their parents.

As the off-road vehicles moved forward slowly, the entire convoy finally drove into the West District, away from the Zarot neighborhood.

He Ao put his hand on the door handle, pulled the mechanical lock, pushed the door gently, and found that the door was locked.

This kind of off-road vehicle will not automatically lock the door's mechanical switch while driving.

He Ao looked at the rearview mirror. Behind the car, the laser cannon installed on the roof of the off-road vehicle slowly moved its muzzle and aimed at the car.

He Ao glanced at the bracelet on his hand, five twenty-nine.

The remaining light of the setting sun shines on the old road.

The time is just right.
