Chapter 822: Embracing the Future (Part II)

"What are you doing, why don't you let Lao Tzu do it? Can't Lao Tzu do more? ”

Xiong Dabiao was full of enthusiasm carrying two large boxes of sweet potatoes, and now it is only half past eight, just two and a half hours, Xiong Dabiao has moved 30 boxes of sweet potatoes, and half of the work for this group of people has been completed today.

"Xiong Dabiao, it's good for you to stop, it's like this every time, and you can go back after three or four days at most."

A squad leader said, Xiong Dabiao still didn't give up, and immediately several people from the 12th department went over to pull Xiong Dabiao.

"Go up and drink tea and play cards, and walk away."

The remaining bunch of petty offenders who were still digging sweet potatoes and packing them were a little embarrassed, because as soon as Xiong Dabiao left, there was no way to get his help.

"That's pretty much it."

The squad leader shook his head helplessly, Xiong Dabiao is a frequent visitor to the 12th section, and often comes here to work every three or five times throughout the year, most of them are some small things like fights and brawls, and he is the best friend of the 5th section chief Niya, and he is also relatively generous and careless, except for his personality is a little stunned, he is still very good, and some people from the 12th section have also drunk with him.

After Xiong Dabiao went up to the second floor of a middle boundary tower, he immediately saw a director of the 12th section sitting on it, and he leaned over.

"Did Git say anything to you?"

Xiong Dabiao scratched his head, picked up the kettle and drank it.

"Tell me what it is, I think he's just an ordinary person."

The councillor in front of him also sighed helplessly.

"The people in Section 2 are just a little nervous, forget it, since it's a mission, you better continue to observe it carefully, I will pass on the temporary report, you can rest for a while and then continue to contact her."

Xiong Dabiao lay comfortably on the sofa, took out the remaining more than 10 eggs and began to eat.

"Would you like some wine?"

As the councillor spoke, he took out a bottle of wine from the cabinet, and Xiong Dabiao took it, unscrewed the lid and drank it with a gurgling face.

"But there is one thing that makes me suspicious, when that guy is alone, he will talk to himself from time to time, and I think this situation is a little wrong."

Xiong Dabiao said, and the director laughed.

"He is also a psychiatric doctor, and many people who are engaged in this profession may have some psychological problems."

"It's not like that, it's like you're talking to someone, and it's a secret."

The director in front of him looked suspicious, sat next to Xiong Dabiao, and slapped him on his strong and thick arm.

"Isn't that just a mental problem?"

Xiong Dabiao didn't know how to describe it, and he couldn't care so much, so he continued to drink.

.......

Located in a large corn shack, Olivia held a finger and kept putting boxes of corn on the truck, she complied with Xiong Dabiao's wishes, helped Song Ying a little, and deliberately used a little unnoticeable mental power to help her when Song Ying moved the boxes, so Song Ying's morning workload was more than half completed.

"I've done enough, I can rest!"

Olivia asked, and several men from 12 departments crowded over, looking like they wanted to talk, Olivia ignored them, just opened the truck door directly, sat in the passenger seat, and opened the door on the other side, and the cool air flowed.

Olivia has been observing Song Ying these days, and basically hasn't found any clues, except for knowing that she is a coquettish woman, she hasn't found anything else for the time being.

But Olivia and Niya have the same considerations, where did Gate and Song Ying go in the months when they disappeared, the data file was kidnapped, and then it was indeed the people of the department who rescued them, but the prisoner has not been caught so far, and the confessions provided by the two are also very vague, both of them said that they were locked up in the basement, and they don't know anything except for someone delivering food every day.

Olivia, who has been in the middle and lower classes all the year round, naturally knows that there were indeed guys who specialize in kidnapping tickets to make money, but later after the introduction of strict laws, basically no guy who is engaged in crime dares to do this industry, the risk is too high, once caught, all involved, including family members, will be unconditionally expelled.

And the two were kidnapped five years ago, according to Olivia's knowledge, the kidnapping five years ago has almost disappeared, and now the 113 S-class mutants of the Lightning Skull are investigating the matter on a large scale at the bottom.

There's been something going on in the city lately, and Olivia doesn't want to see that happen that night.

The Lightning Skull is mainly used to take on some councillors' guard work, the price is reasonable and it is also easy, especially during the councillor election, there are often a lot of problems, so hiring an S-class mutant is far more cost-effective than hiring a dozen B-ranks or a few A-grades.

Coupled with the mutant relegation exam every three years, their Lightning Skull Guild can always shine in the exam, and the examiners of those departments are not their opponents at all, and their reputation naturally rises, and this investigation is not paid for anything, everyone is out of friendship with Niya, and they help unconditionally, and many people have turned down their jobs.

"That idiot is really lucky, he has a lot of rich friends at home, and a qualified teacher!"

Olivia couldn't help but smile when she thought about the past, when they were young, fighting at the bottom to dominate the king, and often doing mischief.

It's just that one day a man came over and wanted to take Nia away, but they all went up together, and each one ended up standing, and he was completely beaten and couldn't get up.

"If you dare to do this again, I'll kill you all next time."

Olivia still remembers Jean's threat, which was very effective, and since then everyone has reined in a bit, trying to get rid of hallucinogens, and a bunch of people are much more honest, which is why there is a bright future now.

At this time, Olivia's eyes stared sharply at Song Ying who was lying on the mud floor, and she began to talk to herself again, whispering something, and occasionally she could see her lips moving, but with such an unclear movement, Olivia couldn't see what Song Ying was saying, not like a certain word, more like a certain tone.

Olivia had already used microvision, and she could clearly see that Song Ying's throat was clearly undulating, and she could be sure that there was indeed something about this woman, because such a move could be seen once in a few hours.

Olivia was counting, exactly 3 minutes in time, there were 16 rhythmic changes, 6 repetitions, it was more like some kind of cryptography, and it looked very strange now.

At this time, Olivia stepped out of the truck directly and walked towards the Middle Boundary Tower, she planned to report what she saw to the waiting 12 section governors, and then pass it on to the 2 sections.

......

"What are you doing, Jean, it's not even 9 o'clock."

Jewell stared at Jean with some dissatisfaction, although there was a problem with the hotel manor, but all the employees who were not taken away today are still working as usual, after all, there are still scheduled guests in the hotel, but since this morning, some guests who want to stay in the resort manor have all been rejected.

"Eat first, and then go surfing."

Lu Xi looked at Jewell happily, after all, he wanted Jewell to teach him surfing yesterday, but because of the suddenness of the incident, but he can have fun from today.

Jewell didn't rest until 3 a.m. last night when he was doing paperwork, and he originally came with the mentality of having fun, but he had to start working again.

A table of delicious dishes had been served, and Jewell was immersed in his food, and Jean looked at some of the tourists who were still having fun outside.

"If you want to play for a few more days, you might as well take this opportunity."

"What do you mean Jean!"

Jewell seemed to realize something, and Ran Zai sighed.

"The old man is going to sell this place for cash, including the two companies on the upper floor."

Lu Xi stood up in some surprise.

"If this place is sold......."

"It should be a private meeting place, and it will not be open to the public."

For a while, Ran Zai thought of who the buyer would be, businessmen generally do not buy, after all, the maintenance fee of the facilities here, as well as the maintenance cost of the manor, is not cheap, if the price and grade are reduced, it can indeed increase the flow of people, but the cost of labor and equipment will continue to increase.

Even if it is to be renovated, it is a large expense.

Jean stood by the window after eating, looking at everything in front of him, he clearly remembered how this ancient manor came about, since the city was established more than a hundred years ago, three generations of the Phoebus family have reclaimed the land here little by little, built houses, and all the changes in front of him Jean clearly remembers.

In the past, Jean would often bring some friends to play here, but at that time it was open to the public, because the construction had not yet been completed, but the friends who used to be had disappeared one by one.

"How about just playing for a few days and playing all the places?"

Jean said, and Jewell sighed.

"I'll stay with you, Jean."

Ran Zai quietly looked at Jean with his arm by the window, his back looked a little lonely, and he looked a little lonely.

"That's the price!"

Ran Zai said casually, Jewell stared at Jean suspiciously, but didn't say anything, Jean smiled slightly.

"The cost! In fact, it's also very good, to be able to see young people embracing the future again and again, this scenery is very beautiful, only I am qualified to see it! ”

......

"What do you mean grandpa?"

"Don't you understand what I'm saying?"

Locke's voice was cold, and his eyes were resolute with his back to his grandson Ronnie and his granddaughter Fei Li, who was already crying.

"I'll leave this matter to you to handle Ronnie, do it well, and in a few days the buyer will send someone over to calculate, and the things that should be taken away can start to be brought to the lower floors."

"I can't accept it, grandpa, this is the hard work of our family? This estate is our ........"

Locke didn't say anything, turned around and walked over to the two grandchildren with a slight smile.

"What does the future look like? I may not be able to see it anymore, but you can! ”
