Spy Family

Paradise City has become even more unsafe, with groups of gunmen patrolling the streets. At the junction of the two forces, overly vigilant armed officers may shoot at any time. Even ordinary people who have to go out have their pockets and It's also possible that you have a weapon hidden in your bag, and you'll pull out a gun just because of a bad look.

No one feels safe enough. Even people like Yang Guanghan have to make careful arrangements every time they go out. He was originally used to flying. Since the cyber attack, he prefers to ride a two-wheeler, wear a body armor and a special helmet. , there is a bodyguard on a bicycle at the front and back - he really wants to increase the manpower, but he doesn't want to be too ostentatious, so he can only take risks.

People in the city were in panic, and no vehicles or people could be seen outside the city. Yang Guanghan refused to take off his helmet after parking the car. He suddenly turned his head and looked around from time to time, trying to find the imaginary assassin in the wilderness.

A bodyguard a hundred meters away waved to indicate the guest's arrival.

Lu Linbei, also riding a two-wheeled bicycle, came close, took off his helmet, and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Yang, I kept you waiting for a long time."

"Fortunately, I just arrived." Yang Guanghan hesitated and took off his helmet. "Major Lu is too anxious. I haven't heard any news about Zhuqian yet, so I have nothing to tell you."

"It has nothing to do with Guan Zhuqian. I wanted to enter the city, but everyone said that the city is extremely unsafe now, so I thought of Mr. Yang and hoped to get protection from you."

"No problem, but my protection is only effective in a specific area and is not very large. If Major Lu wants to travel all over the city, the only thing that can protect you is luck."

"I won't wander around." Lu Linbei said with a smile.

"Let's go. It's not safe here. The mercenaries of King Star may pass by here. It would be better if there is a senior officer leading the team. The worst thing is to run into a group of skirmishers who are unreasonable and will shoot when they are told. In the city More than half of the firefights involved them."

"It's understandable. The people from Uranus are the most nervous right now."

Yang Guanghan was about to put on his helmet, then put it down and asked seriously: "Is that Internet geek really not you?"

"Internet Geek...is this his new name?"

“First, a fool appeared and claimed to be responsible for the attack. At first, some people took it seriously. Perhaps influenced by this, more people appeared and claimed that they had launched a cyber attack. No one could tell the truth from the false, so they had to make random decisions. Give me a name. If you ask me, he is not a weirdo, but a fool and a fool. Why do you say that? He claims to be anti-war and says he wants to cut off the 'devil's claws'. What is the result? There are fewer large weapons. Many people feel that the gun in their hand has become more important, and battles have become more frequent. Human beings need a little fear. Without fear, there are no rules."

"My main purpose in going to the city is to meet the first 'idiot' who pops up."

Yang Guanghan frowned slightly and wanted to ask why, but he changed his mind before he even opened his mouth, "As long as you think he is valuable, I will let my people try their best to help you, but don't have too much hope. What is this fool's name?" Up?"

"Qiu Xinyang."

"He is hiding. It is very difficult to find someone in Paradise City today."

"That's why I asked Mr. Yang for help."

"Haha, Major Lu really thinks highly of me." Yang Guanghan put on his helmet and raised his hand to signal to the two bodyguards at the front and back.

The four of them set out on the road, accompanied by Yang Guanghan. They passed all the checkpoints directly without undergoing inspection and arrived in the city smoothly.

Yang Guanghan did not take Lu Linbei home, but went to an unopened restaurant, "No one deserves complete trust, not even my family members. I don't want anything to happen to Major Lu, so I won't invite you as a guest." ."

"It's very good here." Lu Linbei glanced around. The restaurant was not big and was very neat. There was no one there, not even a service robot. It looked like it had been out of business for a while.

"In Paradise City, the most powerful force is the Uranian mercenaries. The protection I can provide is limited. Major Lu, please do not reveal your identity. Even your appearance is not particularly safe. Try to wear a helmet."

"clear."

Yang Guanghan was silent for a while and couldn't help but said: "What is King Zhai's strategy? Please forgive my curiosity, because I don't want to find out after a lot of work that you don't want to stay in King Zhao at all, and you will all withdraw to King Zhai as soon as you have the chance. In that case - —" Yang Guanghan smiled, "Even then, I will help. Who asked me to have business on King Zhai? It's just that I will be disappointed."

"Prince Zhai did lose once in the war, but we did not surrender."

"Rumors say your commander is waiting for the perfect moment to negotiate a surrender."

"In that case, why don't the Uranus mercenaries launch an attack?"

"The stall set up by Prince Zhai is too big. It is difficult to gather troops. There have been so many accidents recently... To be honest, I don't know why. Maybe you, Prince Zhai, are really prepared."

Lu Linbei smiled and said nothing, pretending to be hiding a secret.

Yang Guanghan knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he sighed softly, stood up and said: "Guan Zhuqian has great magical powers. If the news of Major Lu's entry into the city is unfortunately leaked, please forgive me for not being able to stand firmly on your side. I must ask Guan Zhuqian to be honest."

"As long as Mr. Yang does not take the initiative to leak the secret, I am very grateful."

"It would be great if everyone was as sensible as Major Lu. Goodbye, please sit here for a while. Someone will come to answer you soon."

"goodbye."

Asking Yang Guanghan for help was a huge adventure. Neither Mei Wangzhen nor Lu Yezhou believed this person, but Lu Linbei felt that Yang Guanghan's confusion was real. The more proactive he was, the more he would be confused about the details. Dare to act rashly.

Yang Guanghan is a smart businessman who is best at "making good relationships". He will not really be loyal to a certain party, nor will he easily offend a certain party.

Lu Linbei was willing to take a risk.

A few minutes later, someone opened the door and entered the restaurant. He nodded and said awkwardly: "Hello, Major Lu."

The person Yang Guanghan sent was his former bodyguard Zhao Baochi.

Zhao Baochi was once ordered to assassinate Chen Manchi. After he was caught, he confessed everything and offended both parties. He lost his position as a bodyguard and became a minion.

Lu Linbei stood up and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang is so considerate and sent an acquaintance to help me."

"The secretary sent me here. Since...that incident, I have never seen Boss Yang again."

"Since Mr. Yang didn't punish you, he will forgive you sooner or later."

Zhao Baochi sighed heavily, "One of Boss Yang's girlfriends is a relative of my wife. It was through her intercession that I saved a small life... I shouldn't say this. Let's go, Major Lu, I'll take you there Take a walk.”

"Do you know where to find Qiu Xinyang?"

"The secretary gave me a few addresses and said that I could give it a try. If I can't find it, I also have a few friends who I can check with. If I can't find it, I won't be able to do anything."

"Then go give it a try."

Yang Guanghan's secretary gave a total of five addresses, three of which were drifter stations and two of which were the strongholds of the Interstellar Orphan Mutual Aid Group, which suited Qiu Xinyang's identity very well.

However, the intelligence was not accurate. These five places were selected purely because they were all within the areas that Yang Guanghan could control and were relatively safe.

After the trip, the two did not find Qiu Xinyang, but they heard this name frequently.

Whether it is a small station for drifters or a stronghold of a mutual aid group, there are always people gathering together to discuss fiercely what Qiu Xinyang has done. Some people believe that he is an "internet geek", while others think that he is just a joke. , but both groups recognized the concepts in that statement and felt that Zhao Wangxing was the biggest victim of the war, and all residents must unite to end this war that has nothing to do with them.

At each place, Lu Linbei would stay for a while and listen to their arguments, but he never participated.

Zhao Baochi was a little surprised. After leaving the fourth location, he finally said: "Qiu Xinyang will not hide in the crowd. These places are gatherings of acquaintances who know each other. Qiu Xinyang's photos and videos are everywhere on the Internet. I can recognize him when he shows up."

“I’m interested in people arguing.”

Zhao Baochi smiled and said: "Major Lu is a bit rare and strange. There is also a place like an elderly activity center on Zhaiwang, right? Elderly people in the same neighborhood gather together to chat and play chess, and the day passes. The small station and The people in the mutual aid group are similar to them, except they are younger. They all live nearby and have nothing to do. They don’t have money to go to really interesting places, so they can only come here to have fun. The small station is better, but the mutual aid group is especially boring. It was almost like a low-level labor market, I used to come here to recruit people to do odd jobs, and they were all rushing to take it.”

"Are there usually so many people here?"

"Normally they have to do odd jobs, and not many people come here to hang out. The situation now is similar to that on weekends. It's all caused by the war, and serious work has stopped, let alone odd jobs." Zhao Baochi sighed again. He is now It's like doing odd jobs.

Zhao Baochi rode the bike, Lu Linbei sat behind, and the two headed to the last location.

Zhao Baochi looked around and shook his head at Lu Linbei, "We're not here. Major Lu wants to watch for a while longer?"

Lu Linbei stood outside the crowd and nodded, "I think some people don't look like residents living nearby."

"The small station is more open. There are more outsiders coming, and occasionally there are rich people. Gee, it's really leisurely."

Lu Linbei looked at it for a while and decided to leave.

"Where else does Major Lu want to go? I have a few friends who are relatively well-informed and are helping me find out about Qiu Xinyang's whereabouts. I'll press them later."

"Well, let's find a place to eat first."

"Okay, I know there's a restaurant nearby that's still open."

The restaurant is small and faces the street, but it does not open the door. Guests must knock on the door first and be allowed in before they can enter.

Compared with the solemnity when he walked in, the food was very ordinary, and the price was completely worthy. Zhao Baochi was very generous. After ordering, he said: "Boss Yang is treating me, Major Lu. You don't have to be polite."

"Thank him for me."

"Oh, I guess I won't have a chance to meet Boss Yang."

It was evening and there were not many guests. Zhao Baochi had a big appetite and ate most of the food. He was still not satisfied. He patted his belly and comforted himself: "I am eighty percent full. I should lose weight. Alas, I don't know what." It’s time for me to settle down, but if this continues, I’ll have to find another more stable job.”

A group of people ran past on the street outside, all with weapons in their hands. The shop owner immediately turned off the lights, added another lock to the shop door, and then said to the tables of customers who were eating: "Sorry, please bear with me for a while."

Everyone knows how dangerous it is out there, so no one faults the shopkeepers for being cautious.

"The city is more dangerous after nightfall. Boss Yang has arranged a place for Major Lu to stay. I will take you there later. You can go out tomorrow."

"Okay." Lu Linbei looked out the window, because another group of people came, larger in size, about fifty or sixty people.

The shopkeeper also closed the curtains and kept apologizing to the guests.

"Is this kind of thing common?" Lu Linbei asked, still able to see the street outside through the gap.

There was a hint of uneasiness in Zhao Baochi's voice, "This is the territory of King Planet, but these people are not like the soldiers of Planet King... Let's go, I'm afraid something will happen again."

The shop owner opened the back door and let the customers leave. The two of them turned to the front street to pick up the car. They saw hundreds of people running towards them. Soon as they got closer, someone shouted: "Deport the aliens!"

Zhao Baochi was stunned, and Lu Linbei almost blurted out: "It's time."
