Chapter 272 Teammates Meet Without Recognizing Each Other
This night is destined to be not peaceful.
After the midnight test, Rongzhen was woken up again by the rumbling sound outside the window in the early morning.
She didn't get up to check, and the windows were closed tightly, but the noise and explosions could still be clearly heard by her ears.
It was not until dawn that the noises quickly disappeared, as if they had never occurred.
Rongzhen woke up feeling dizzy in the morning. She didn't go to Xiaolou to have breakfast, so she asked the hotel's intelligent robot to bring it to her. She also tried to complain to the robot about the noise at night.
The robot smiled a perfectly apologetic smile and explained, "Excuse me, sir. There was a disturbance in the neighborhood last night. It's been resolved now, so there's nothing to worry about."
"Who dared to make trouble here? Have they been caught?" Rong Zhen asked hurriedly.
She was definitely caught, but the intelligent robot would definitely not tell her some information about the other party, and maybe it didn't know it at all.
After all, it is just a service robot in the hotel, not a security robot on the street outside.
Rong Zhen tried briefly but failed to achieve her goal, so she went downstairs to check the situation after breakfast.
The downstairs was just as bustling and lively as when she came yesterday. There was no sign of damage to the building, and there was no sign that an explosion had occurred last night.
But there are still differences.
For example, when Rongzhen tried to walk from the hotel to the neighborhood where the commotion occurred, he was stopped by a policeman who suddenly appeared.
"Ma'am, this place is temporarily closed to the public, please take a detour!" The other party was fully armed, with only a pair of eyes visible under the windshield mask, and warned Rong Zhen coldly.
Rongzhen asked in surprise, like an innocent bystander: "Didn't you say nothing happened last night?"
"This has nothing to do with you, please leave." The police raised his rifle and spoke in a serious tone.
Rong Zhen showed some dissatisfaction and compromised: "Okay then..."
Turn around and prepare to leave.
"Wait!" A command came from behind, accompanied by the sound of neat footsteps, approaching quickly.
Rongzhen seemed to be frightened and stood there motionless. She heard the policeman who had just driven her away respectfully greet the newcomer.
Then the other party came in front of her and held out his hand: "ID!"
It seems that she is still suspected, but fortunately she is prepared.
Rongzhen sighed inwardly and took out the hotel's VIP card, mumbling reluctantly, "What? I just came for a walk, and I have to be checked."
"Is this all?" The leading policeman was not as easy to fool as the previous one. He did not give up even after looking at the hotel's VIP card.
Rong Zhen immediately said angrily, "What else? I was just curious after hearing the commotion last night, and since I happen to live nearby, I took a stroll over to take a look. What's going on? Who would carry a full set of ID when walking around? Isn't this proof enough? Then I have to ask the hotel owner. Didn't he say he could travel freely in the city?!"
Perhaps because she was so confident and acted so tough and fearless, the other party softened and took a step back, saying, "Sorry, ma'am, this is our duty. Have a good time."
Then he handed over the documents neatly and left.
The people marching in formation behind him followed immediately, each of them fully armed like the policeman who had just stopped Rong Zhen, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
Rongzhen glared at them as they passed by with an angry look on her face, as if she wanted to remember everyone who had humiliated her today so that she could settle the score later.
When he stared at the last person in the team, Rongzhen's little heart couldn't help but skip a beat as their eyes met.
team leader!
Even though her entire body was wrapped in a uniform, making it impossible to see her true appearance and figure, Rongzhen would definitely not make a mistake.
Those familiar eyes definitely belong to Chen Xingyuan!
But unlike its previous calmness and wisdom, it has now become extremely indifferent, just like the intelligent robots here, cold and inorganic, without any emotions that humans should have.
Rongzhen didn't know what happened, but the other party was obviously in bad condition.
She noticed that something was wrong with him, but she resisted the urge to recognize him and decided to wait and see.
Anyway, the person has been found, so at least there has been some progress.
What Rongzhen needs to do now is to be cautious and try to get in touch with the other party while preserving himself, instead of acting impulsively and not only failing to get in touch with the other party but also losing money.
The policeman next to him called out to Madam, his tone slightly doubtful.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Rong Zhen didn't explain too much and just snorted coldly and went back to the hotel with his head held high.
The policeman was not at all surprised by her attitude.
This city is a mixed crowd but also has clear class divisions. If Miss Jiao, who seems to have no worries about food and clothing and lives a comfortable life, is still kind to these people after what just happened, then there must be something fishy going on.
Rongzhen returned to the hotel room with a sour look on his face. After making sure that no one was paying any attention to him, he relaxed and looked serious.
Chen Xingyuan actually joined the patrol team, and something seemed to have gone wrong, and he no longer looked like a real person!
How could she contact him now?
What if the other party really has some problems? Will she expose herself if she contacts him rashly?
But so far, he was the only one she could find, and he didn't react to her at all, even worse than a stranger.
This attitude was so different from his previous clinginess towards her that Rongzhen couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable and empty.
It's true that people are most likely to be mean. When the other person sticks to her, she avoids him as much as possible. Now that he treats her coldly, she is not used to it.
Well, let’s not think about these for now, and think more about how to contact him without leaving any trace.
I don't know if he was pretending or if something really happened to him.
When I went downstairs to eat lunch at noon, the number of patrols outside increased again. I heard from other tenants that there would be some activities in the afternoon, and coupled with what happened last night, more police were needed on the streets to maintain order.
The old man Rong Zhen had spoken to earlier was well-informed and well-informed. He boasted while reading the newspaper, "Something's happened at the city government lately, and most of the police force has been transferred there. We don't have that many police here. They're all newly developed humanoid weapons, brought in as a last-minute solution."
Everyone was shocked, asking, "How dare something like this be allowed out on the street? It won't be dangerous to us, right? Which biological company created this? This is too unruly. Do they think the city treaty is just for show?"
The old man put down the newspaper and started chatting with them about the issue.
Rong Zhen listened silently on the side and had a rough guess about Chen Xingyuan's current identity. His heart sank.
Humanoid weapons?
It hasn't been that long, how come he has become a humanoid weapon? I hope she is just overthinking it.
In the afternoon, a team of gorgeously dressed men and women appeared on the street, surrounding a float decorated with flowers and ribbons. Together with the beauties in the float, who were wearing heavy makeup, they sang and danced to the music, and cast winks and blew kisses to the passers-by who were attracted by their looks.
According to the discussions of others, this is a wonderful weekly program of a flower pavilion in the city, mainly to attract more customers.
As for what their cabinet does, you can tell by looking at their current performance.
Everyone around was very interested and made an appointment to go to the flower pavilion to take a look.
Didn’t you hear what the beauty on the float said? There’s a new performer coming out at the Flower Pavilion tonight, so how could you not join in the fun?
Rong Zhen's eyes darkened slightly after hearing this.
Newcomer?
It can’t be…
Although she had some guesses, she didn't intend to take the risk.
This is different from an auction. The auction is held in the hotel. After all, she is a guest of the hotel. As long as she doesn't reveal her true identity, the hotel will protect her for the sake of the room fee she paid.
Hua Ge is far away in another block of the city, and no one knows what the situation is inside. She might have just delivered vegetables there.
The most urgent thing is to get in touch with the captain first, and everything else has to take a back seat.
Rongzhen had a good plan, but plans cannot keep up with changes.
Just as she was standing in the crowd, watching openly and collecting information secretly, a man and a woman outside the float suddenly looked in her direction.
When the two sides looked at each other, they were both stunned for half a second.
Then the two men danced, waving the feather duster-like decorations all over their bodies, and quickly approached Rongzhen with their hips and waists twisted.
The others dispersed with laughter, but Rong Zhen stood there like an idiot without moving.
Or maybe she reacted too slowly and didn't have time to move.
I'm afraid I've never seen this kind of scene before.
The others burst into laughter when they saw this.
Rongzhen seemed to be awakened by their laughter. When she reacted and wanted to turn around and run, it was too late. She was quickly caught by two feather dusters and tightly surrounded.
The people outside couldn't see what was happening inside for a moment. They only saw the little girl being surrounded for two breaths and then released. There was a gleam in her eyes and her face was as red as a boiled shrimp. It was obvious what had happened.
"Heh, these guys are so immoral that they don't even let the little girl go!"
"Even if you have morals, you can't do this kind of business. Don't forget where we are. The secular morals of the outside world can't restrict us here."
Amidst the envious and teasing voices, two sudden critical voices rang in Rongzhen's ears. Before she could look over, the float had already passed by, and those people followed, leaving her standing there in a daze.
The patrol team that she had met once in the morning quickly ran past her and rushed into the crowd to find two guys with military attire.
The two men protested their arrest and quickly disappeared into the streets.
Rong Zhen strongly suspected that they were students from the military academy who were participating in the competition, but she could do nothing about their current situation.
She felt that she was able to "get away with it" thanks to the fact that the delivery personnel had dropped her off in a remote and inconspicuous place, otherwise she might have been caught as soon as she arrived.
Or maybe she doesn't have the value that others want.
It seems unlikely. Not to mention her appearance and gender, the Yun family behind her is enough to attract people's covetousness. How could they let go of her, a little fat sheep?
Rongzhen was thinking secretly, thinking about the message that the two feather dusters had just conveyed to her, and decided to take the risk and go to the flower pavilion to check it out at night.
Who are those two, you ask?
Of course, they were Kong Haichao and Lin Sen who were in the same team with her.
They didn't know what was going on and ended up being newcomers in Huage. Fortunately, they didn't dare to sit there and wait for death. They bribed the person in charge and sneaked into the float parade, waiting for an opportunity to find their teammates.
Because they have to perform prostitution at night, they must have their own people to check out their place, otherwise their chastity will be at risk.
Seeing Rongzhen was a big surprise for both of them. Not only did they successfully find a teammate, but they also had a guest for the evening.
With such a short contact time, Rongzhen has not been able to tell them about the captain's situation. He plans to go there in the evening and find a chance to tell them so that they can discuss a safe solution.
There is also Hua Qiao, I wonder where she ended up.
