Chapter 109: Secret Talks
Although I don't know what kind of drama will be staged in the road, the environment here makes Ye Qi dare not compliment - the sewage is cross-flowing, and the garbage is clinging to the full garbage can, and the wind blowing from nowhere is flying around, which also brings a disgusting stench; It's not that Ye Qi hasn't smelled something stinky, in fact, the smell of any rotting corpse is not much stronger than here, but Ye Qi never thought that there could be such a smell in a place other than a rotting corpse.
Especially when Ye Qi saw the brightly lit and crowded streets outside the alley not far away, this sense of contrast made everything in front of him seem unreal, and the stench became stronger and stronger—this was a small alley behind a hotel in downtown Dude, and it took him and the chameleon about half an hour to walk, and then change to a night bus, and it took him an hour and a half to get there.
Although it was close to midnight, there was obviously no such concept in Dude, those who should rest went to rest, those who should work continued to work, and those who should enjoy had just started their nightlife - in this regard, although Ye Qi, who had been to Dude once, was prepared, but when he actually stepped into the downtown area, he was still a little shocked; Because, he found that it was more lively than he expected.
"The election of the speaker of the House of Representatives is very important for politicians, and it is equally important for ordinary people; Because, in the eyes of many ordinary people, it doesn't matter who is the speaker, but the holidays and some benefits brought by the election of the speaker are really worth being happy about! ”
The chameleon gave an explanation, and then. He turned and walked to the back of the street. Entered this small alley where garbage was piled up—
"Although I don't know what kind of show will be staged in Langdao. But are you sure it will be here? ”
Ye Qi glanced at his surroundings, and then pointed to the rat not far in front of him who did not flee because he saw a living person, and said, "Although this is a fairly hidden place, it is nothing compared to some rooms that can be agreed upon, and a large number of people in a public place, right?" ”
"Of course, whether it's booking a secluded room or in a public place with a large number of people. It's much stronger than here! The chameleon nodded first, and then chuckled: "However, there is a premise for this, the joint can't be a big man!" Otherwise, in terms of Dude, which is full of monitors, it is too conspicuous! ”
In addition to the bustling, busy, and high-rise buildings, there are all the monitors on the main roads in the city; Externally, the supreme government explains that it is to maintain traffic and other very fair reasons, but in essence, it is to control everything in its own hands - of course, this control is also quite limited; At least. When it is not too excessive, the people of the highest government will not make a move.
But. This still bothered many of the people who liked to stay in the dark, and they had to trade away from Dude - for they were not sure if there would be a monitor in their dwelling and room; Ye Qi at the beginning also received such a 'welcome ceremony'!
And for those who have to complete certain transactions in Dude, they can only choose to make sure that there are no monitors and that they are at ease, but such places will inevitably become fewer and fewer as time goes by—when going to the suburbs where Raul lives, Ye Qi has seen some extra cables and other things in some places, and it is clear that the Supreme Government has also begun to 'transform' the suburbs of Dude.
"There's a monitor across the street right across the street, straight up from here, and overlooking the whole street!"
Ye Qi said according to the memory of the surroundings in his mind - although the monitor was relatively hidden and placed in the canopy, it was obviously very clear to Ye Qi's keen vision.
"The monitor was temporarily damaged in the evening because of the curiosity of a bird; The maintenance personnel will also be able to set off after dawn at the earliest; And the damage of this monitor will inevitably cause the whole street, more or less dead ends; Especially here with us! Come on, I'll take you to our audience! ”
Taking two steps forward, the chameleon pointed his toes, deftly stepped over the two pools of sewage, and stepped up an emergency escape staircase belonging to the hotel - the staircase was iron, leaning on the wall of the hotel itself, leading straight to the top floor of the hotel; The chameleon stepped on the stairs lightly, and the soft bottom of the leather boots did not make any sound when it touched the stairs, and Ye Qi naturally did the same thing, but compared to the chameleon, which was as light as a cat, Ye Qi was very direct step by step, powerful but silent, like a lurking leopard.
The chameleon's power in Dude is even greater than I imagined!
Ye Qi silently thought in his heart - a monitor is damaged, and how it is damaged, and it is inferred that there is a big man here to use this place during this time, it is definitely not something that can be done by being smart alone, without the cooperation of relevant news, even if you are smart, you can't do it.
And the source of this news is very intriguing; According to Ye Qi's understanding of Dude, the people who have access to the monitors in the highest government are all members of the special service team; It can be said that every arrangement and repair of the monitor is the responsibility of the special service team - although it is only to manage the logistics, but this is enough to surprise Ye Qi; After all, being able to place their own people in it already shows that the chameleon's infiltration of the supreme government has entered the middle level.
Perhaps, at the end of the year, those parliamentarians will also become her people, maybe!
Inexplicably, in the bottom of Ye Qi's heart, such an idea came to mind - although it seemed a little ridiculous, Ye Qi would not refute his own idea.
"Every time I'm in the audience, I'm so happy!" Walking towards the ground, the chameleon chuckled again: "No matter what time it is, the audience stage is much easier than the stage!" ”
"Inside the door behind the iron fence is the hotel's security guard on duty at night!"
The chameleon's footsteps became lighter and lighter, and with a neat turn, he crossed the iron fence; Moreover. He pointed to the side door. reminded Ye Qi
"While you're watching someone else's performance. When you are a landscape, you are also a landscape in the eyes of others! ”
After mouthing the above words, Ye Qi quietly rolled over the iron fence - an iron fence that needs to be opened from the inside, controlled by a 'F-shaped' double plug, and its height and thickness are enough to resist some unscrupulous people who want to enter the hotel through the 'back door'.
Of course, in addition to this, there is also the chameleon mentioned by the security guard of the hotel; Next to the iron fence, behind the gate that could be opened freely, two voices of talking to each other appeared in Ye Qi's ears - this door. It is not an all-wooden closed structure, but on the upper side of the door, from the chest to the head of the adult, a transparent glass is installed; The staircase outside the door is clearly visible, and everything in the area where the iron fence is located.
However, it is very obvious that in Ye Qi's opinion, these two security guards who can talk energetically, even if they have an advantage in their position, their role is limited; And that's enough to tell. The correctness of the big man who will come here in a moment - even if there will be security, it will only be dereliction of duty; After all. Do you expect security guards to watch over the garbage? Unless someone actually breaks in, it will attract the attention of these security guards.
And, in some ways, this is not a dereliction of duty, but only another kind of blind spot; Unlike the previous machine failure of the monitor, the fault here is common sense; It's like you'll never notice the trees in the woods, because that's too many; Unless it's a large disappearance, even one or two won't catch your attention.
"Here!"
The chameleon pointed to the corner of the stairs one floor from the top of the building, and then sat down first.
"Nice view! I hope the performance won't disappoint me for a while! ”
After sitting down, Ye Qi said with a smile - the top floor is undoubtedly more wide, and it is a better observation position; But as Ye Qi said before, when you look at the scenery, you also invisibly become someone else's landscape; Especially on the top floors of certain high-rise buildings in Dude, a monitor is a must.
Perhaps this has been opposed and questioned by some businessmen, but in the face of power, these are just painless existences; As for the law? - Never rebel against the other party with the rules of the game set by the other party, because then you will realize your stupidity; and the incompleteness of the body after being abused.
"Certainly won't disappoint you! It would be nice to have popcorn and beer! ”
The chameleon said affirmatively; And just after the chameleon's regretful request, the 'performers' they were waiting for began to step onto the stage-
The first person to enter the alley was a man dressed ordinary, but with a large-brimmed baseball cap; The man's hat was pressed very low, basically obscuring most of his face, only revealing the area below the nose - unlike in other places, although in Dude you can still wear a cloak, cloak and the like, but put the hood down, otherwise, the military police on duty will very politely tell you what to do, and will also conduct a series of questions.
Although most of these are routines, they are also quite troublesome for some people in the Dark World Realm; Therefore, in addition to the existence of special abilities, basically people who enter the dark world realm of Dude will change their faces slightly to deal with unnecessary troubles, although they remain dressed as they are.
However, this does not include accessories such as baseball caps - and unfortunately, most people in the dark world do not like baseball caps, which naturally include baseball; After all, in all the people in the Dark World Realm, such an activity is completely meaningless, and it is not even a warm-up.
Only duels and gambling can meet the tastes of these people; And this is bloody and full of violence in the eyes of ordinary people - the difference in the world's view of the world is destined to have no common language between the two sides; At least, that's how you look at sports.
The man who appeared first walked up and down the alley with some irritability; It can be seen that although he chose such a location, the man underestimated the surrounding situation - a white handkerchief appeared in the other party's hand and covered the bottom of his nose, and the other party was in a mess. Look for a clean place as much as possible; Merely. It would undoubtedly be in vain.
After Ye Qi entered this small alley before. As far as I have observed, except for the staircase attached to the outer wall of the hotel, which is relatively clean, there is basically no big difference in other places, the only thing to consider is whether the foot is stepping on the ground moistened by the sewage, or the sewage itself.
As the man who chose this place as the junction location, although he wanted to walk up the iron staircase, he was undoubtedly clear about the existence of the security guard; Therefore, the man had to choose a relatively clean place. Standing there on tiptoe - it was clear that the man had no intention of having anything to do with the sewage on the ground, and even if he had to, he was trying to minimize contact as much as possible.
And about ten minutes after the man arrived, a dark shadow turned into the back alley, and the speed was so fast that it was difficult for ordinary people to find it at all; After flying around the back alley, it was only after confirming that there was no danger that the dark shadow landed silently on the iron staircase, dressed in a black, decent gown, exuding an aura similar to that of an aristocracy. Plus that handsome face, this later man. It's like a noble son in the dark night; Of course, in the eyes of the witcher, there is no need for the night nobleman or anything else, vampires are vampires, as long as they suck human blood and cause death, they should be crucified on a stake.
"Duke?"
A memory in the depths of Ye Qi's mind was stirred up by the arrival of this man later; He instinctively whispered softly - the duke at this moment is not a general reference to the rank of vampires according to strength; It's a code name, a code name for the top of the dark mercenary organization.
In the thought of breaking off, except for the leader commander and the deputy leader godfather, the person who used to care about Ye Qi the most; Of course, at that time, there was a chameleon who had not become his ally, the dark mercenary with the code name of the Duke, although he joined the idea of breaking the killing, but the other party and the original chameleon were generally a lone ranger-like figure, did not participate in any organized gatherings, and rarely took action; However, once you make a move, you will be 100% complete.
Previously, the only variable in the chameleon's 'self-assassination' layout was the sudden appearance of the duke, and if it weren't for the fact that Dude was the territory of the supreme government and had unimaginable adaptability, it would have been overturned by the duke who suddenly appeared.
"The Duke is really like a vampire, but that's just his ability; Therefore, he is a human being! ”
Ye Qi, who was recalling the last time the other party appeared, with that kind of swift shot and strange ability, suddenly heard the chameleon's words; And this answer made Ye Qi look at the other party in surprise - in fact, as allies, Ye Qi and the chameleon rarely ask about things that may be related to their privacy; And the chameleon's time in the thought of killing is obviously a period of privacy; Therefore, Ye Qi did not mention it.
For the two who have an alliance relationship, this is not a treaty, but a bottom line.
It's just that Ye Qi didn't expect that the chameleon would take the initiative to mention it.
"It's not a secret thing, as long as you are willing to work hard to investigate, it is still easy to find!"
In the face of the surprised Ye Qi, the chameleon replied like this; Ye Qi, who pursued the relationship between allies, didn't say much about this answer for himself, just nodded and looked down again-
"The appointed time has passed!"
The man who came first was full of complaints and anger because of the Duke's tardiness and the unbearable environment here, and he roared in a low voice: "You must know that we have more choices than you, don't challenge our patience again!" ”
"We don't have the only choice, and we have an equal choice!"
Even in the face of the threat, the duke's voice was still elegant, he stretched out his right hand and gently stroked the gold trim on the black dress, his eyes did not look at the man in front of him, but at the intersection of his white fingers and the golden trim of the gown; After a while, before the other party exploded in anger again, he said slowly and clearly: "If it weren't for the inappropriate behavior of some people, I wouldn't be late; Although we dark mercenaries don't mind kidnapping, your methods are simply terrible! ”
"Especially after telling us, the people who used the Hand of the Abyss to threaten and tear up the ticket are really disappointing to our leader!"
"What did your leader say?!"
After hearing the duke's words, the man who arrived first couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, and then asked—obviously, he still had some scruples about the leader in the duke's mouth.
"Man, we've taken it away!"
After giving such an affirmative answer, the Duke relayed the words of the commander: "Our leader asked me to tell you, I hope this is the last time; If there is another accident, we will use our methods to achieve our goals! ”
After the words fell, the duke did not wait for the other party's answer, and the whole person turned into a black shadow again and disappeared in place; And the man who arrived first didn't come back to his senses until half a minute after the duke left—
"A bunch of lowly things!"
The man spat the ground and whispered; And at this moment, Ye Qi saw the hooked nose of the other party that had been covered by a white handkerchief.
