Chapter 193: Break-in (Thanks to the leader of Soy Sauce Shrimp Fish)

When facing the gun, people tend to become kind and easy to talk to. Not long ago, he was still biting on the cost. The boss ordered that the young man with the flower turban, who had no choice but to take the key card to open the underground warehouse behind the supply station, and moved out boxes of packaged No. 26 fuel.

"Wouldn't it be better if you did this earlier." Gu Luo patted him on the shoulder, and then asked how the other party collected the money.

"Don't even think about 2 million federal coins, but I won't rely on you to pay."

"There is a card machine connected to the star network in the store." Raising his hand, the flower turban answered honestly, occasionally glancing at the people on the side, especially Avni and Ruby. After all, in this deserted place, such beautiful girls are probably not seen for ten years.

"Be honest, don't look around." Jin Senke kicked him and almost kicked him over, but he still didn't dare to fight back. He just led everyone to the hall.

It was a bit surprising that the few guests in the hall had not left yet. Some were drinking, some were sleeping, and they seemed to be used to this kind of scene. They had guns in their hands and most of them were wearing bulletproof vests. Their voices were rough.

After all, this was the lawless North Second District. No one would go out without some defense ability. Logically, this store should have a defense force. However, as a clerk, Hua Toujin flexibly chose to give up after seeing the weapons of several people. He might die if he resisted, but if he didn't resist, he would only lose the boss's money and goods. He was still clear about this.

"This is the card swipe machine." Squatting under the counter and searching for a while, Hua Toujin found an old white card swipe machine with a lot of untorn stickers on it. Judging from the yellowed edges of the paper and the model on the side of the swipe machine, it was also a very old thing.

"I've seen this kind of old-fashioned thing in nostalgic games. I didn't expect it to be real in reality. The question is, can it still be used?" Xi Mu knocked on it, and a crisp sound echoed from the hard shell.

"It works, but it's a bit troublesome to debug. Today's encrypted communication methods are a bit slow for this old model." He started the card reader while debugging the parameters, inputting the password, etc. After tinkering with it for more than ten minutes, the page with successful connection and payment finally appeared.

"According to the market price, 400L of 26-model fuel only costs 20,000 federal coins. Considering that it's really troublesome for you to transport it here, I'll give you 100,000 federal coins." Although 100,000 seems like a lot, for someone like Jin Senke, it's probably just a few meals. He generously took out the card and swiped it.

"Thank you, uh, thank you." Seeing that this old man actually paid and didn't play tricks on him, the man with the flowery turban immediately became more flattering and even asked if there was anything else he needed. He could see that these people were really rich and would not kill him.

"Food and other things, you are not assured if you give them to us, just tell us the latest intelligence, do you have any maps or something." Sitting on a table with a big knife, Jin Senke began to interrogate, while other members were carrying fuel back to the car, and some were looking around the store, looking at the various old objects in the shabby interior.

Ruby took Avni to look through the bar counter, saying some of the names of some of the wines she knew, many of which were counterfeit and inferior goods, and there were also a few bottles that looked like real ones.

"I am very good at wine. A company with a red wine brand asked me to cooperate before, but unfortunately there are not many people who like red wine now." In the new era, various new beverages have been developed, and red wine with a classical style is naturally not as popular as in the past.

When the two were talking in a low voice, several guests in the corner of the store focused their eyes on their backs. After all, in this wilderness where women are rare, such a beautiful and young girl is really rare.

One of the guests who was already a little drunk staggered to his feet, mumbling unclear words, as if he saw some kind of hallucination, staggered over, ready to reach the two girls behind the bar, but Valk next to him grabbed his hand and then blocked him.

"Who... are you? Let me go... I'm warning you, I'm... I'm from the 'Leopard Head Gang', if you offend me... don't even think about leaving this North Second District." He spoke in a daze, as if he would fall down at any time. For such a person, Valk just shook his head and gently pulled him to the ground.

Seeing that Valk was tall and strong, the drunken guest's companion didn't dare to get angry at this time, but just helped him up and took him aside, muttering in a low voice, "Brother Long, wake up."

On the other side, Jin Senke also slowly listened to the situation described by the flower-headed scarf.

"In other words, the North Second District is now deserted, with only a few places settled, and the most powerful ones are 'Burning Sun City' and 'Dead Tree Garden', right?"

"Yes, there used to be a 'Jie Lou City', but last year they seemed to have changed their previous strategy and left the North Second District with the entire city. The convoys during that time were so huge that many people were surprised."

"Oh? They just left like that, where did they go?"

"I don't know about that either. It is said that they went to other districts to re-develop. There are still a small number of old people guarding the ruins of Jie Lou City, and the surrounding areas have gradually become deserted. Many of the originally wandering forces have fought several times for the settlements in these vacant places. Now, the ruins of Jie Lou City are occupied by several newly formed gangs."

"This change is quite big. I've heard about Jie Lou City before. It's a rather special force with a culture that is somewhat different from ours." Allen sat aside and analyzed.

"Let's ignore all that for now. Have you drawn the approximate sphere of influence on the map? Send it to us first."

After another round of tinkering and questioning, Jin Senke and Ya Lian saw that they could not get any new valuable information, so they stood up and prepared to leave.

"Alas... this, I haven't paid yet." The young man with the flower turban looked at the few people leaving and became anxious again. He was obviously afraid and disgusted before.

"Money? Didn't I give it to you? The 100,000 I just swiped." Jin Senke glanced at him. He was not short of money, but he didn't like to give money to such people.

"This, isn't that gas money?" The flower turban was a little speechless and didn't know how to reason.

"It's okay, it's all the same." After saying that, Jin Senke smiled and led people out of the supply station.

Not long after, the truck outside started again. Although the tail smoke had a slight black mist, it still ran and soon disappeared at the end of the wilderness, leaving only a pile of smoke and dust.

"These guys!" As soon as the people left, the flower turban immediately changed his face, squeezed the beer can in his hand, and then threw it out.

"How dare you play tricks on me? I even drew a power map. Haha, but you won't get away with it. You actually forced me to buy things on the territory of Crocodile Boss." After muttering a few words, the flowery turban went back to the supply station and began to report to his boss. Of course, he must have exaggerated in the middle, saying how loyal and smart he was, how he protected the boss's property, and how he successfully frightened the other party into leaving some money.

"Although they gave some money, it's obvious that they don't take you seriously. The other customers in the store have also seen it. If we don't teach them a lesson, who will take us seriously in the future."

...

"Who are the other customers? Let me think, there is Ah Qiang from the Leopard Head Gang, Red Beard who is a lone escort, and a few coolies who are running for their lives."

...

"Okay, boss, I got it. I will send you the surveillance footage from the store later. Hehe, let me tell you, there are two girls who are particularly pretty. If they are sold on the black market, they can probably be sold at a sky-high price."

——————

In the gray and yellow wilderness, the truck was driving along with smoke and dust. Rhythmic music was playing in the front of the car. He leaned on the driver's seat on the N side, gently shaking the drink cup with one hand and supporting his chin with the other hand.

Although he is the driver, it does not mean that he needs to operate it all the time. Under today's AI automatic driving, he only needs to make occasional adjustments according to the situation to deal with emergencies.

Although he did not go into the store, he also knew the whole process through other means. He did not make any comments on it, but just felt it was quite interesting, as if a person who has passed the full level is watching a novice pass the first level.

It's really reckless, leaving so many loopholes, but it's also quite interesting.

Inside the carriage, it was another scene.

Jin Senke put his hands on his shoulders, and the protective suit jacket on his back was like a cape. He pressed his eyebrows and sunglasses with one hand, making a handsome look.

"How about it, my method is still the best, right, hahaha~" After saying that, he patted Allen's shoulder with one hand. Although he didn't say a word, everything was self-evident.

In this action team, except for Tilan, who is the president, he has the highest popularity and prestige at this time, surpassing Allen in the past. Now he seems to want to sit in the second-in-command position.

Among the other people, although Avni and Iyepel didn't feel much, the rest of them couldn't help but agree slightly, which solved the current dilemma.

At night, Tilan woke up and sat by the campfire, listening to Ruby telling her the whole process, and occasionally yawning with her hand covering her mouth.

"So, you just swaggered and bought a batch of fuel without any cover-up, right?" She couldn't help but hold her forehead and had a headache.

"Give them 100,000, and it's probably still profitable." Although she had never engaged in such illegal reselling, according to what she had learned in Jielou City before, the cost of some things in the North Second District would only be lower than outside.

When the North Star District was transferred, the old factory equipment that could not be taken away was abandoned here. If someone carefully maintained it, it would not be difficult to restart it.

"It's impossible to produce advanced and cutting-edge things, but it's not a big problem to produce common industrial products such as old fuel. Moreover, the North Second District is extremely poor, and the personnel costs are surprisingly low. You can make a lot of money by giving him 40,000 federal coins, let alone 100,000." Still a little sleepy, Tilan still helped the people around her analyze slowly.

"These people who open stores in the wilderness are well-informed. You were so generous before, with brand new firearms and weapons, and you spent a lot of money. You just wrote on your face that you are stupid and rich." The girl complained faintly.

"I guess there will be a lot of greedy guys coming up on the road."

"What should I do? Oh, if a cute and beautiful girl idol like me is caught, the kind of fate that can only be seen in some banned videos." Ruby pretended to be scared.

"Okay, okay, the situation is not completely that bad. Although there are many jealous guys, most of the forces here are average, and they don't have any high-end advanced weapons. We will just deal with them when the time comes. Anyway, we are here to gain experience, and we will meet them sooner or later." The girl shook her head.

During the winter vacation, she listened to Gu Qianlou talk about many past events in the North Second District. Although she didn't stay here for a long time, she was definitely not someone who didn't know anything. In addition, through the comparison of the battle with her uncle, the girl also roughly sorted out the current strength level in the North Second District.

There may be many ordinary Sequence 5 professionals, but there are only a handful of Sequence 6. It is estimated that there are only one or two senior executives in "Fenri City" and "Dead Tree Garden".

Half a year ago, she was able to break into the depths of Jielou City alone. Now, facing two forces of the same level, she would not be too worried. In the end, if things really don't work out, she can still call for help, such as the teacher N who was drinking and slacking off in the cab.

As for getting injured, she doesn't need to worry about it. Her talent is very convenient for healing, and with each awakening, Tilan herself is not sure where her limit is.

If she only uses the talent of the Crystal of Reconciliation, she can now barely fight with Sequence 6 masters at the level of Sequence 4, but if she adds the changes brought by the Songstress's talent, she should be able to defeat some unprepared and unprepared Sequence 6, such as the previous battle with Ran Bei'er.

After understanding the situation, Tilan had dinner with everyone, and then went back to the car to sleep. Since the singing that night, she seemed to have experienced some changes. She was always sleepy recently, and various scenes that she had never seen before began to appear in her dreams. Some were the remnants of the previous two generations of color-level singers in time and space, and some were some collective emotions and unconsciousness that had erupted. Such pictures were very confusing, and she sometimes couldn't tell what era the past events were.

It will probably take some time before it gradually returns to normal. She seems to have gradually gotten used to this change. Maybe it's because too much debt is not a burden.

After finishing this day, in the next few days, the group continued to collect samples one by one according to the task map. During the process, the whole team was constantly running in. They had never traveled and lived with other peers before, and their habits and ideas would not collide and conflict on campus, but it was different outside.

Although Tilan still often felt sleepy, she would still come out to talk to everyone every day, and then participate in the summary and discussion every night.

Everyone has different personalities and ideas, so it is inevitable that there will be disagreements. However, for the common mission and to keep the overall team together, everyone is looking for the right position and mode of getting along. Slowly, some of the immature ideas of the past gradually fade away. In the daily discussions and analysis, everyone's pace has finally become more consistent.
