6 Identity
Mobi Zack arrived at the office first, and her appearance was supposed to scare Steve, who was crawling up crookedly in his chair when Zach came in.
"Don't turn around. Zach pouted and told Mo, dressed in an ancient republican costume, to stop spinning, "What are you doing? ”
"Nope. Mo stood up, his hands in his wide cuffs, folded in front of him, with an exotic dignified attitude, "I'm showing my identity, hoping that this Mr. Walker can find a suitable identity for me." She raised an eyebrow, "I've often seen Danny agonizing that it wasn't a good fit for him, and I don't want that." ”
Zach helped down Steve, who looked weird, "And what is your identity?" ”
"The King's wife. "Mo probably wanted to put on a majestic smile, but halfway through the show became embarrassed," one of them. ”
Zach shook his head helplessly and sat down behind his desk, "Mo, no one here knows the history of the Republic, and there is no 'suitable' identity here, so ......" Zach raised his hand and made his gesture very clear.
The ink pursed his lips, the fancy clothes atomized, and when it was clear again, it became ordinary civilian clothes, natural, similar to one of Louise's clothes, "Okay, I'm the Grande chef now." Mr. Walker, just give me an identity, it doesn't matter. ”
"Uh......" Steve adjusted his breath and began to rummage through his bag, "Whatever, your appearance, too, well, stand out." ”
Zach watched as Steve pulled out a camera, apparently to take a picture of Ink. Zach paused for a moment, "Mo, can you change your appearance?" Mo herself said, this is not her essence, coupled with the magical creation ability she has displayed, this question is a matter of course.
"Yes. Mo Yi raised his head, "But I don't want to." She touched her face. "It's the way I am, and I'm ready to keep it up. Finally, he said lightly, "Look at Danny." ”
This can be seen as racism, meaning that Danny is no longer what he used to be. There is a detail, Mo did not use shapeshifter gold as an example~
Zach waved his hand and Steve pressed the shutter. The front of the camera spits out a photo, and Zach's attention is instantly attracted, "What is this?"
"Photos. For some reason, Steve instigated back and forth with a picture that was still black.
"There are pictures so soon?!" That's right, Zach was surprised.
What are you counting on for a vampire who only gained imaging abilities a few months ago to know something as 'good' as Polaroid?
Steve was stunned for a moment, "Do you want one?"
"Please!" Zach straightened his clothes and sat down.
Click.
Steve looked weird and handed Zach the picture, "I'll be able to image it later." ”
"Yes. Zach began to learn from Steve, holding pictures and sitting back and forth.
The only sound of a fan in the office began to be.
Ink leaned in behind Steve. Her photos have begun to image, "I look good. ”
Zach sped up his incitation, staring expectantly at the slowly fading photo.
Steve pursed his lips and continued to rummage through his bag, but couldn't hold back, "Zach, haven't you taken pictures before?"
"Once upon a time, vampires had no images. Zach replied quickly. Curling the corners of his mouth, "But now." I, Toredo, can. ”
Steve nodded as if he could understand, took out a few documents from his bag, and opened them, which were identity documents. It looks very legitimate, and the front page is nailed with photos. Placing the ink photo next to him, it seemed that he was going to make a comparison, and before the comparison, Steve still couldn't hold back. "The circle has investigated your identity, so ...... the photo in your file"
"It's painted, realistic oil painting. Zach had already seen the blurred effect, and the smile on his face was spreading, "In order to appear real, I deliberately made it black and white, and then took pictures, it is not easy to distinguish the real from the fake." ”
Steve nodded suddenly, and gestured to Mo, but the words still said to Zack, "Then you are so lucky, in recent years, file management has begun to require color ID photos, and then the identity will change to you like you, uh, vampires, it's not easy to get it......"
Zach stopped inciting and looked away at Steve.
"What? what did I say?" Steve didn't notice what he was saying.
Zach waved his hand, glanced at his picture with satisfaction, and put it in the drawer, "It's nothing." Are these the identities you prepared for Mo?" Looking at the identity documents unfolded in front of the desk, they were all republican women.
"Oh yes. Steve nodded and glanced at Mo, "I know you probably don't think these women look like you at all." Steve picked up a copy casually, "But in the eyes of the Federalists, it's really not clear at all......" he paused himself and pouted, "Well, these are too unlike." ”
Mo is much more beautiful than these women, and the lack of the ability to recognize the appearance of people does not affect the perception of beauty, Steve shook his head, "I'll look for you when I go back." He hesitated, "But don't expect too much, the identity of a republican should be in line with your appearance, it is estimated that it is difficult to find." ”
Mo picked one up and looked at it, "It says they're immigrants." Residing in ......," Mo glanced at several other documents, "Federal, Midwest. ”
"Yes. Steve looked at Zack, "I don't actually have a Republican identity reserve in my hands, these are the resources that some of my contacts have in addition to Patton." There are not many in the middle, and there are more in the west. ”
"Are there many republicans in the West?" Mo asked, in fact, this question has already been answered, and James knows that bean curd can be sweet and salty.
"Yes. Steve nodded, "The trade between the West and the Republic was the earliest in the Federation, and if you want to find a suitable identity, you still have to contact from the West." He pursed his lips and digressed, "I heard that the recently passed trade import and export bill was promoted and implemented in the western region. He hesitated, "I've also heard that the west is also trading with our north. ”
What is the north side of the Federation? is the mountain range, what is it to cross the mountain range. The Indians of the past had no way of knowing, because their civilization was not enough to support them to cross the harsh mountains, but later the Federation could. Unfortunately, after the crossing, the Federation was not able to expand its territory, and it became a new colonial power.
The war that ended ten years ago has been mentioned many times, and part of the battlefield was with them. As a little recap, Ike identified General Lance as treason. Because he found out that Lance was making a secret deal with the northern frontier of the Federation.
Zach didn't want to listen to this kind of gossip, but instead had an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, I didn't know this identity would be so troublesome." ”
"No, it won't. Steve waved his hand, "Identity is like this, people flow. Identities don't stop at cities, they may continue to flow, or they may disappear and leave their identities behind. Only businessmen like us have the opportunity to do this kind of business. He shrugged, "It's easy to understand that the reserves I have in my hands are all identities left over from other places." ”
It's easy, I don't dare to think from any angle, and the person who replaces the identity will not still live in the city where the identity is known.
"The identity of these people. All left behind?" Mo fiddled with the information, "Where did they go?"
"Well, dead, missing, or want to ......go missing," Steve waved his hand, "There are a lot of people who actively and passively give up their identities, and they don't care where these people go, all they care about is that these identities are legal and legitimate, so that a person without an identity can start a new life in a new place." ”
Steve looked at Mo's reluctant face. It is understandable that anyone who encounters this kind of thing will be slightly repulsed. "I have another way, if you're willing to wait. ”
"Wait?"
"With the passage of the Trade Act, more and more people will come from the Republic, and it is foreseeable that there will be people who will emigrate or reside in the Federation. Speaking of work, Steve was serious, "I heard some rumors that Barton's Massa Harbor would be supported by the state government as a trading port......"
Zach raised an eyebrow. Didn't interrupt. Guess what he had in mind? When Susan came to negotiate terms, he opened his mouth and asked for Fischer.
"So there will definitely be Republicans coming to Barton, and if you don't want the second-hand identity that other people have left behind, you can make one of your own. Take advantage of the regulatory chaos of the first population exchanges to find loopholes. Take advantage of it. ”
Steve observed Zach's expression, "If you believe me, you can leave it to me." ”
"I knew you were a dealer of identity, but I didn't know that you could also make identity. Zach was thinking about it.
"The essence is the same, it's all about exploiting the update bias between the identity system and the real person. Steve was answering, "You think so, the republic is half a world away from us, and it is easier to operate, before it was just to handle transactions, but now it is possible to make one." ”
Zach looked at Mo, asking for the person's opinion, "What do you think?" ”
Mo looked at the information, and didn't know if it belonged to the republican woman who was 'dead, missing, and wanted to be missing', and pursed her mouth, "Wait, anyway, according to what you said, there will be more and more such identities, right?" Even if I can't create a new identity that belongs to me, these won't run away. ”
"That's right. Steve smiled and nodded, looking at Zach.
Zach nodded as well, "So be it, thank you." ”
"No thanks. With a wave of his hand, Steve began to clean up, smiling self-deprecatingly, "You just pay." "The identity of Danny, who doesn't pay, everyone knows that it's an oolong. was also taken out by Mo Gang as a negative example, and it was difficult for Steve not to laugh at himself.
When I put my identity information back in my bag, I accidentally dropped out a piece of information that wasn't taken out. Mo quickly held on, and just casually asked, "What is this?"
"Thanks. Steve stuffed it back, "Other work materials." "Probably unintentionally explained. However, the action of cleaning up began slowly until it stopped.
Steve took out the document and didn't open it, "Zach, can I ask you a favor?"
"What's the busy?"
"Yes. Steve took the information in his hand and seemed to hesitate, "Well......"
Zach didn't know what the other party was going to say, and when Steve hesitantly pulled the tail note, he gestured to Mo. Ink nodded and left.
Steve noticed, looked sideways at Mo leaving, "Well, it's not a thing...... Mo still went out, it was polite.
"Say it. Zach smiled.
Steve held the document in his hand and gently tapped the desktop, "It's the thing that delayed me today, ......"
Zach chuckled, waiting for the other man's hesitation to pass.
"Okay. Steve made a decision and flipped through the information, but his face was a little weird, "Do you know Didi? ”
Zach pursed his lips, "Acquaintance, Mirror Man, in the Southern End." ”
"She gave me a call this morning. Steve smoothed and pushed the information to Zack, "About eight or nine years ago, she bought an identity from me, which was introduced by Sbella. ”
Zach took the information and glanced at it, the person on it was not Didi, at least not what Zack remembered, only a little similar, "Is this the identity she bought?"
"Yes. Steve nodded, "I'm more impressed because there were two Didi who went to me at that time, and they said that their twin sisters have been living together and want to buy a new one for the extra person." ”
Zach pouted, "You believe it?"
Sibella introduced. Steve's repetition of the point, "I was convinced. ”
Zach wanted to, but held back, "Is there something wrong with the mirror man looking for you?"
"She said that the real Didi was getting married with a new identity, and asked me to send a family message to the past so that she could start a new life. ”
"Oh?" Zach raised an eyebrow, "That's hello." ”
Steve's face turned ugly, "But I don't know the address of this new identity of Didi." ”
Zach raised his eyebrows, looked at the information in front of him, and read out the address in the column of residence, "xxxxx." ”
"I confirmed, she moved. I guess I'm living with the man who is going to get married. Tsk!" Steve looked down in annoyance.
Zach blinked, "You said you wanted me to help, did you want me to ask for your address?"
"Yes!" Steve's face began to flush.
"Didn't you ask in the first place?" Zach was just curious.
"Tsk!" is definitely ashamed, "What the mirror man wanted to tell me, I refused!" he said, annoyed, "I was a little messy when I heard her say that she was of different race!
Immediately, Steve looked at Zach with a flushed face, "I didn't mean interracial or anything, I meant that Sbella lied to me! I used a twin since I was a child!*! I actually believed it! God knows how Sbella used to make me, a person who deals with the identity system every day, believe this kind of nonsense! If Dee Dee didn't call me in the morning and just said that he was interracial, I would still think these two guys were twins! Do you know how stupid it makes me look stupid!"
Zach fully understood, closed the information with a smile, and reached out to pat Steve comfortingly, "Now you're embarrassed to ask Didi again?"
Steve pursed his lips and let out a breath that seemed to be relieved, "Yes." I feel like asking again is a reminder of how stupid I used to be!"
"Hehe, let me ask for you. "This little thing," in a hurry?"
Steve waved his hand irritably, "No hurry!"
"Then go down, feel free to visit, and leave for dinner. Zach smiled and comforted the guy, "I still have a call to call." ”
