A gray light flickered at the information sending and receiving area.
Tens of thousands of snowflake-like messages coming in and out at night.
As the first satellite city of Longqi, it also serves as the capital of the western part of the New World.
Xinghuo Satellite City is the undoubted core, and every move affects the lives and fortunes of countless survivors.
As early morning approached, the intelligence agents in charge of the evening shift breathed a sigh of relief and left with their clothes in the cold morning breeze.
"No. 17, He Chenguang!"
In front of the iron gate of the information sending and receiving office, the intelligence officer with the called serial number stepped forward.
My thin autumn clothes could not hide anything, but I was still searched carefully inside and out by the security inspector.
This is a necessary step.
In order to prevent the leakage of important information, the intelligence agents are not only not allowed to use the game panel, but their personal freedom is also subject to many restrictions.
This includes but is not limited to living in collective dormitories, not being able to have contact with outsiders, and being searched when commuting to and from get off work.
"Xiao He, the past few days have been a warning period. Don't say what you shouldn't say, and don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Do you understand?"
After the body search, the security inspector looked grim. He ordered.
As the gambling battle approaches, the chaos in various places is much more serious than before, and even Longqi is no exception.
In the shady underground black market, all kinds of information have been sold at sky-high prices.
As Longqi's information officers, as long as these people dare to let go, they can become rich in minutes.
"Brother Zhang, I definitely understand this, don't worry!"
When I thought of telling my family about the secret message sent by Tianyuan before leaving get off work, see if I can Go to the black market to exchange for some rice to support your family.
Looking at the current formation, He Chenguang quickly shrank his neck to show his obedience.
He doesn't have the guts to commit a crime against the odds and risk his life for a little money.
And the reason why so many people choose the job of intelligence agents and are willing to lose their freedom is because of this stability, isn't it?
"Very good, let's go. It's quite cold here. Let's go back and have something hot to warm up."
Security inspector Zhang Ge squeezed out a smile and waved his hand. .
In fact, the above arrangements for them to conduct security checks here are just for show, to scare these people.
If someone really wants to leak information, there are many ways.
For example.
"Minister, are you off work?"
At this moment, a friendly inquiry from the staff came from behind the security gate.
Brother Zhang quickly turned his head and saw Wang Rong from the Information Office. Minister Wang walked out with his right hand covering his waist.
The security inspectors who were still busy doing the security inspection were all surrounded by the staff at once.
"Minister Wang, what's wrong with you? Why did you reach your waist?"
"We've been really busy recently. People at our security checkpoint are getting injured every now and then. I didn't expect that our dedicated Wang The minister didn’t expect to be tricked.”
“Hurry, arrange for a car to come and take Minister Wang back to rest.”
A series of greetings. The cooling brought by the cold wind seems to have increased a bit.
Surrounded by the crowd, Minister Wang remained unsmiling and occasionally just nodded in reply.
Security inspector Zhang Ge stood behind the crowd and deliberately went up to chat with Minister Wang to make him look familiar.
But seeing the crowd surrounding the minister and not letting go all the way out, he could only curse a few words in his mind and withdrew his gaze.
Who doesn’t know what these crooks think about trying to please Minister Wang?
I just want to stuff all my relatives and children into the information office and live a stable life.
There are also people who hold the idea of defrauding the quota and selling it on the black market.
Unfortunately, there are very few people who can get in through this road, at least the people here can't even think about it.
No, Minister Wang did not undergo security inspection just now.
Brother Zhang thought so and shook his head helplessly. He had no authority to inspect the minister.
If he offends others and makes a single utterance, the security department will remove him from the list.
"No. 18, Zhang Wen, hurry up, don't stand behind and whine."
Glancing at the next intelligence officer who was still queuing up to pass the security check, Brother Zhang's expression became serious again.
Erxing Street.
Wang Rong walked out of the information office without running around, and went straight to the restaurant where he usually ate.
A lot of people said hello along the way.
Wang Rong responded with a smile, without giving anyone the impression that he held power and his eyes were above his head.
Even when passing by a roadside stall, he squatted down in a down-to-earth manner and asked one by one about the prices and supply quantities of today's supplies.
"Minister Wang is such a good person. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to sell my share today, but I didn't expect him to ask me to send it directly to the Information Office. That's great!"
"Oh my God! It’s so cold, but with Minister Wang’s help, life for us vendors will be much easier.”
“Let’s go and pick things up and go home early.”
"."
Currently, Longqi is still implementing the planned distribution system.
That is to say, there is an upper limit to the materials that each person can get for work. It is not possible to buy whatever you want if you have money.
If you want more material rations, you need to redeem them with contribution points.
And these vendors bought the materials that ordinary people exchanged with points, and made a profit from the price difference for the rich.
After being called by Wang Rong, several vendors stood up happily, picked up their supplies and hurried to the information office.
The remaining people shook their heads helplessly and had no choice but to carry small baskets to other departments to sell.
Not long after.
Wang Rong arrived at his destination, an inconspicuous small restaurant located behind Erxing Street.
Flame Restaurant.
"Shopkeeper, please do the same."
"Okay, Minister Wang, please sit down quickly."
The restaurant owner glanced at Wang Rong, and walked to the back hall with a smile on his face to start operating. .
After a while, two plates of simple cold dishes and a bowl of rice porridge were brought out and placed on Wang Rong's table.
At this moment, another thin young man walked in through the door with a smile on his face.
"Shopkeeper, is there breakfast?"
"Yes, what does the guest want to eat?"
"Well, just follow what this gentleman eats. I am the same as him."
Pointing to the simple meal in front of Wang Rong, the man said indifferently and sat down on the table next to him.
The shopkeeper nodded happily and returned to the back hall to prepare. Only the man and Wang Rong were left in the front hall.
"I didn't expect our powerful Minister Wang to eat such a simple thing in the morning?"
The man looked over with a half-smile.
“Oh, don’t ordinary people in this city live like this?” Wang Rong replied angrily, lowering his head and taking a sip of rice porridge.
"Moreover, whether the rights are big or small, they are all for us humans to take root in the wasteland and serve. If I have rights, I can eat delicacies from the mountains and seas? Can I be superior to ordinary people if I have rights?"
< br>“High, Minister Wang’s awareness is so high!”
Hearing this, the man immediately nodded in "admiration".
As expected of a core member of the ‘Xiang Shenghui’, most people really don’t have the ability to tell lies with open eyes.
"Where is the information?"
"Qixing Street, Logistics Department, go get it from the vendor with the scar on the corner of the mouth."
"Why is it so mysterious today? Is there something big going on? "The man glanced at the back hall and lowered his voice.
Leaking some ordinary information is no longer a big deal for a person of Wang Rong's status.
In the past, ordinary information was handed over verbally here, and such a secret method was not used at all.
Unexpectedly.
"Poison Arrow, you should know the rules, there are some things. Are you so eager to die?"
Wang Rong took the words calmly and finally raised his head. . For just a moment, the man code-named "Poison Arrow" couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart when he met that cold, murderous gaze.
“I understand!”
He didn’t dare to talk back.
Although Xiang Shenghui arranged for him to connect with Wang Rong, it does not mean that the status of the two is the same.
If he had not chosen a special route, he would be extremely adaptable to the abilities brought by the route.
Otherwise, a hundred or a thousand of them would not be as important as a hair on Wang Rong's side in the eyes of Xiang Shenghui.
"It's good if you understand. If you understand, you are a good boy."
The owner of the back hall came over with side dishes and rice porridge.
Wang Rong stopped talking, his cold expression returned to its usual warmth, and there was nothing unusual about it.
Poison Arrow breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly finished his breakfast, and fled out of the restaurant in a panic.
He had never seen Wang Rong show such a murderous expression just now, as if he was looking at a dead person.
“Fortunately I didn’t ask further, otherwise I would have been in trouble.”
I don’t know what kind of information it was that made Wang Rong so nervous.
Poison Arrow muttered in his heart, and quickly came to the corner of Erxing Street, and his figure began to become blurry.
Two minutes later, a middle-aged man who looked a little rickety walked out of the corner and walked towards Qixing Street.
At the same time, Wang Rong also finished his breakfast and picked up a tissue to wipe his mouth.
"Minister Wang, is today's meal still in line with your taste?"
"Yes, it tastes a bit spicy. I've been working overtime recently and have a bad stomach, so I can't eat such a spicy taste."
"Oh? I'll give you something lighter next time?"
The boss's face remained unchanged, and there was indeed no overtone in the conversation between the two.
"That's okay. You can't eat until you have a stomachache and then think of something else. That would be so uncomfortable."
"Understood, I've written it down. Please walk slowly."
Watching Wang Rong leave the restaurant , the boss collected the tableware and put it in the pool in the back hall.
It’s noon.
The hourly worker responsible for cleaning the tableware came to the door. He was a strong young man and looked full of energy.
"Boss, I'm here!"
"Everything is in the back kitchen. Just watch and wash it while I go up and take a rest."
"Okay."
The muscular young man nodded and turned to the kitchen.
The bowls and chopsticks in the pool have been piled half as high as a person, several thick piles, and the workload is obviously not small.
But at this time, the young man's attention was not focused on this. Instead, he caught a glimpse of the protruding wooden poles in the wood stove next to him.
Pull it out gently, and only half of the wooden pole comes out.
Looking down and looking inside, it turned out to be an arrow.
The front was burnt black by the charcoal fire, and the arrow shaft was broken by someone's external force, and lay in several pieces in the fire pit.
“Poison Arrow.”
The young man's heart suddenly sank.
But what was even more horrifying was that when he turned his head, the owner of the restaurant was standing at the door of the kitchen.
“Xiao Zhu, what are you looking at?”
“Let me clean the stove, and there seems to be some unburnt wood inside.”
“ Oh, then clean up and do a good job!”
The boss looked up and down, nodded slightly, and walked upstairs.
It wasn't until the footsteps faded away that Xiao Zhu breathed a sigh of relief and walked quickly to the sink to wash the pots and dishes.
Damn Xiangshenghui, a group of traitors who believe in taking refuge with foreigners, are so cruel that they even want to kill their own people!
Poison Arrow was their target that they had been tracking for more than half a month. They didn’t expect that they would be killed one step ahead before the net was confiscated.
If he hadn't been so smart just now, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to get out of the kitchen door today.
More than an hour passed.
After receiving today’s salary, Xiao Zhu went out and hurried to the next restaurant on Erxing Street.
The pay for dishwashing jobs is not high, but the advantage is that the wages are paid on a daily basis. For people like Xiao Zhu whose family members are seriously ill and need money urgently, it is indeed a good choice.
Standing in front of the small window on the second floor of the Flame Restaurant, the restaurant owner stared at the departing figure for a long time before slowly looking back.
“Is it my imagination?”
He carefully investigated Xiao Zhu's background, and Xiangshenghui also arranged for people to check it several times, but no problem was found.
"It seems that I have been too nervous recently. Fortunately, the "autumn harvest" will be here in a few days."
In the evening, Tianxing Street is located in the military control zone of the main city.
In front of a black three-story building, two off-road vehicles completely painted black and covered with armor drove in.
The guard at the door came forward to check the ID, stepped back and saluted.
After passing six checkpoints in a row, the off-road vehicle finally arrived at the parking area of the three-story building.
The car door opens.
Dishwasher Xiao Zhu had put on a black full-coverage combat uniform during the day and jumped out of the back of the car.
“Go in, the commander is waiting for you.”
“Yes!”
Xiao Zhu walked quickly towards the building and passed through several checkpoints before entering the building.
Led by two guards, we arrived at the conference room on the third underground floor.
The door opens.
A middle-aged man with a resolute face sat inside, flipping through information in his hands.
“Hello, President!”
Xiao Zhu quickly saluted.
As the chief of the Longqi Special Operations Division, this boss is definitely elusive, and no more than two dozen people at the grassroots level have seen him.
"Come in."
"Yes!"
Xiao Zhu walked in quickly and reported the report immediately after the door was closed.
"In the afternoon, after we discovered that the codename 'Ghost Hand' was planning to silence 'Poison Arrow', we immediately took emergency action, persuading Poison Arrow to abandon the dark side and turn to the light. We also used Poison Arrow's special camouflage ability to help him fake his death and escape from the surveillance of the Xiangsheng Association. Currently, It can be known from the interrogation information."
Speaking of this, Xiao Zhu hesitated.
"Don't worry, just say whatever you want."
"Yes, it has been discovered that the superior of 'Poison Arrow' is none other than Minister Wang of the Information Transceiver Department, Wang Rong, codenamed 'Scorpio' , we have obtained a large amount of correspondence between Minister Wang and Xiang Shenghui, and have searched relevant evidence from several important points."
"Is it Wang Rong?"
The chief was stunned, sighed, and didn't speak for a long time.
It's not that he can't accept this result, but he feels a little sad that humans who have reached this point will still choose to fall.
"I remember his precious daughter, the funeral seemed to be held two months ago?"
"Yes, she was terminally ill and died without treatment."
"Did he die without treatment?"
"It is rumored that this is the case, but there is also news that when he was doing activities outside, he was targeted by a few unemployed gangsters who were new to the territory, and then"
Xiao Zhu said, his voice couldn't help but lower. .
Confrontations in the dark are often more deadly than in the open. This is probably the reason why Wang Rong is willing to fall.
But can aliens really satisfy his desires?
The answer is yes.
