When the convoy entered the seventh satellite city of the central city, night had already begun to fall.
Just like qingang city, the security in satellite city No. 7 of the central city was not as strict as that of the main city. Because the convoy would come over to deliver goods every once in a while, they all had a pass. Now, they had more passes than they did.
Lu Xin also had an official green gang identity, and it was a special one with a steel seal on it.
Forget about entering the city, he could even apply for a small loan in the central city.
However, there was a special procedure before entering the city, which was to hand over the weapons.
Whether it was qingang or the central city, whether it was a main city or a satellite city, it was absolutely not allowed to enter the high wall with guns. However, as people who dealt with big goods all year round, Gao ting and the others naturally understood these rules. Long before they entered the city, a motorcycle had already come over and collected all the guns. These firearms would be sent to a storage point outside the city and could be retrieved when they left the city.
Some of the storage points with good service were even in charge of replenishing ammunition and maintaining firearms.
This was a new type of service industry that emerged after the Crimson Moon.
Lu Xin’s heart ached for a moment, but he still handed over his gun and placed it together with Gao tings and the others ‘guns. However, he only handed over his gun and the ordinary bullets, while the special bullets were carefully stored and hidden …
This thing was too expensive, and he was still a little worried about giving it to others.
It was already eight O ‘clock in the evening when the convoy entered satellite city No. 7 one by one. Gao ting led the team in a truck straight to a familiar motel in the city, which was specially prepared for their convoy that traveled to the wilderness. There was a large parking lot, various types of rooms, food, and hot water. There were also various massage and hair shops of all sizes around.
This was to provide formal head massage and psychological counseling services for the old drivers who were tired from the journey.
The group of old drivers had not slept for close to two days and one night and were already extremely tired.
As soon as the car stopped, some of them laid on the steering wheel and dozed off.
Only Gao ting, old Zhou, sun gouzi, and the others still forced their bloodshot eyes open and went to register, ask for rooms, and ask for food.
Old Zhou looked at those old drivers who were so tired that they didn’t want to move with disdain. these people’s bodies just can’t make it .
look at me. I’m almost 50, but I’m still in good spirits.
The world behind the wilderness did not have such complicated procedures. Everything was simple, and the room was quickly booked.
Sun gouzi blew a loud whistle to wake up the tired old drivers,
“Get up first. The head of the car said to eat something, wash your feet, and then go back to your rooms to sleep.”
The motel had a limited number of rooms. In addition, the convoy had to save money, so they did not need many rooms.
Most of them had to squeeze into the shared bed, and only those with higher status could sleep in the standard room with a bathroom. Lu Xin was assigned to a relatively high-end standard room, but he had to share a room with Lao Zhou and Xiao Zhou. He had no choice but to share a room with the front of the car. After some consideration, Lu Xin felt that it was safer to share a room with them.
Uncle, I don’t want to sleep with you …
Little Zhou was a young man, so he was in good spirits. He had not slept for two days and one night, so he was still quite energetic at this time. He first ate a small bowl of cabbage and pork stewed with vermicelli provided by the hotel, added four steamed buns, and drank two bottles of beer.
When it was time to sleep, she looked at her uncle with some disdain and said, ” I can’t sleep in the same bed as you. If I sleep on the same side as you, you grind your teeth and snore at night. If I don’t sleep on the same side as you, you don’t wash your feet. I’m dizzy from the smell .
Then, he looked at Lu Xin expectantly and said, ” brother little Lu, can I share a bed with you? ‘
Lu Xin, who had just finished a pot of pork with vermicelli, came out of the bathroom after a shower. He was embarrassed when he heard this.
“Not good.”
He politely rejected Xiao Zhou and then came out with his bag.
Although it was only eight or nine o ‘clock, the motel was already very quiet.
The old drivers had already checked in. They had either finished their meals and gone to wash their hair to relieve their fatigue or were already asleep.
After making sure that there was no one around, Lu Xin dialed the number han Bing had given him.
Hello, blue kite pet shop …
A man’s voice quickly sounded from the other side. It was very calm and magnetic.
Lu Xin followed the secret code han Bing had given him before he left qingang and whispered, “Do you have cats there? The kind that doesn’t shed fur.”
“How can a proper cat not shed fur?” the other party was silent for a moment.
“Which decent person would raise a shedding cat?” Lu Xin asked.
“The more serious a cat is, the more fur it will shed,” the other party replied.
“So, I’m not serious enough?” Lu Xin asked.
The voice on the other end of the phone paused for a moment before changing its tone. “Are you Mr. Shan Bing?”
“It’s me, it’s me.” Lu Xin smiled and nodded.
The person on the other end of the phone said,”qingang already gave me a call
Also, Mr. Shan Bing, you can just call me directly. I’m a proper office staff stationed in the central city, not a spy. That secret code is only used in unexpected situations.”
“It’s mainly because I haven’t tried using the code on the phone yet …” Lu Xin replied awkwardly.
“Now that you’ve tried …”
“Has Mr. Shan reached the central city?” the other party asked.
“Yes,”
“I’m currently staying in a hotel in satellite city No. 7,” Lu Xin replied.
“Alright,” he said.
qingang has already informed me, ” the other party said. I’ll be in charge of helping you manage the matters in the central city. I’ll also take you in on the way … I picked up the document and made a preliminary assessment of the document and the forbidden experiment you encountered. However, the intercity train is out of service now, so I can only go to find you tomorrow. What you need to pay attention to now is that you must be careful at night.”
“There’s really someone coming?” Lu Xin asked curiously.
“I’m not sure,”
but I have to tell you that you have informed the Qing gang’s Bai ta town experimental base. When our special task force went to collect evidence, they found that the entire Bai ta town had been burned down by a wildfire. There was no evidence at all …
‘What?”
Lu Xin’s guard was raised.
It had only been a day and a night since the convoy left White Tower town with him.
In such a short period of time, the enemy had already wiped out the entire White Tower town?
He moved very quickly and was very powerful …
“I know, I’ll be careful,” he said after thinking for a while.
Then, he gave the name of the hotel and the room number to the other party before hanging up.
“The one who designed this code system in the office should be a troll, right?” When he returned to his room, he was still muttering in his heart.
Through the window, he could see that old Zhou, who was sleeping on the bed, and little Zhou, who was sleeping on the ground, had already fallen asleep. Both of them were snoring loudly. Only sun gouzi was still in the corridor, sitting on the bench and patrolling. Their convoy was used to being careful, plus they had encountered such a strange thing, so even when they arrived at the satellite town, they would arrange for people to be awake in case there was any movement.
Upon seeing Lu Xin, sun gouzi, who was sitting on the broken chair, couldn’t help but feel a little awkward. He bowed slightly, but he didn’t know what to say.
Back in the White Tower town, he had suspected Lu Xin, but he had not spoken about it yet.
“You’ve worked hard.”
Lu Xin nodded at him and looked up at the ceiling. you must watch well tonight
something might happen. I’ll only be at ease with you watching over me!
When sun gouzi heard this, his face was a little startled, but he immediately revealed an excited expression and hurriedly stood up.
“Lu … Little brother Lu, don’t worry. With me here, everyone can sleep in peace!”
“What?”
Lu Xin glanced at him and nodded. “Oh.”
Men were so easily touched.
He was clearly talking to his sister on the ceiling, but he was so excited that he was about to cry.
“Alright, I’ll have to trouble you.”
Lu Xin nodded at him and glanced at his sister hanging on the roof with a smile before returning to his room.
The bed was hard, and the blanket still had a slightly rancid smell, but to Lu Xin, who had been on the road for a few days, it was already a good feeling.
Lu Xin woke up at 7 am the next day, and his bones were cracking.
When he stepped out of the room, he saw that the old drivers were already eating breakfast in high spirits. The moment Xiao Zhou saw Lu Xin, he ran over to him with a bowl of porridge and four to five meat buns wrapped in old newspapers. brother Lu, did you sleep well last night? ”
“I had an average sleep in the first half of the night.”
Lu Xin answered honestly. The uncle and nephew duo had been competing to snore.
One was like a surging River, rising and falling high, while the other was like a flowing river, suddenly emerging as a new force …
The battle was so intense that it was difficult to determine the winner. In the end, it was a win-win situation for both of them, with only Lu Xin losing.
“So you slept well in the second half of the night?” let’s eat, ” Xiao Zhou said happily. we’ll be delivering the goods soon.
“Exchange the goods?”
Lu Xin was taken aback.
After such a thing had happened, they were still in a hurry to deliver the goods
Then, he reacted.
For this convoy, no matter what happened, it might not be as important as delivering the goods .
The most important thing in their eyes was to hand over the goods and complete the task of this trip to get the payment.
After all, this was the money that they had worked so hard to earn on this trip, and they were relying on this to support their families.
In addition, the more than twenty people who died in the convoy also needed this money to pay for their pension and family settlement.
Taking a step back, even if something really happened, they could focus on dealing with it after they handed over the goods.
The world in everyone’s eyes was different …
Lu Xin nodded as he accepted the buns and congee. “Then I’ll go with you guys
later.. “
