Chapter 470 Verification
Arriving at Shutianxia Hotel, Chen Chuan asked for a private room with a view of the night view of the central city. He ordered the dishes on the table and soon the steaming hot dishes were served.
Wu Han happily picked up a piece of fat-and-lean, trembling braised pork. He took a bite and found it soft, glutinous, and tender. The skin was slightly sticky yet had a slight chewiness, and the juices instantly overflowed his teeth and cheeks. He exclaimed, "Delicious! This tastes just as good as Yang Zhi's!"
Chen Chuanshuo said, "Some of the water used here is said to be transported from Yangzhi. This is the only hotel in the central city that uses this."
Wu Han suddenly realized and said, "No wonder I said it tasted a little familiar. This is just right."
He ate a few more pieces of braised pork, which seemed to have satisfied his craving. He put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and asked the question he hadn't asked in the car, "By the way, junior, who were the people who attacked us today? Judging from the scene, with guns and cannons, they must be quite powerful."
Chen Chuan said, "Although there is no clear conclusion yet, I think it is very likely someone from the Ferris Wheel Company. Be careful if you encounter them next time."
"Ferris Wheel Company?"
Wu Han pondered for a moment. "I think I've heard of this somewhere." Then he remembered, "I think I came across this company the last time I went on a mission with you, junior."
Chen Chuan nodded, "That's them."
Wu Han said, "This company seems very arrogant. Hey, Molan Company used to be like this. I don't think it will be any better for long."
Chen Chuan said: "These companies are very similar to us fighters in some ways, that is, if they don't advance, they will retreat.
It’s just that the environment they live in doesn’t allow them to stop, so they will try every possible way to expand their own ecological environment. In the end, they will either eat others or others will eat them.”
When it came to food, Wu Han became greedy again. In the blink of an eye, he found that in just a few words, Wei Dong had eaten most of the big plate of braised pork without saying a word.
He quickly picked up the chopsticks and said, "Hey, kid, eat slowly and leave some for me."
Chen Chuan smiled and clicked twice on the border, then ordered a few more dishes for them.
As dishes were brought up one after another, both of them ate to their heart's content, their mouths full of oil, and they exclaimed in delight.
When they were in Wuyi or on missions, they all ate nutritional paste, which was very filling. They seldom went to restaurants to eat. It was not that they could not afford the money, as they made a lot of money doing commissions with Yangzhi. It was mainly because eating out was a waste of time.
With the extra hour or two, they can complete more commissions and conduct more training. It is not as time-saving and labor-saving as a few nutritional pastes. Moreover, the nutrition and energy provided by ordinary people's food are not as comprehensive as nutritional pastes, so at most they can only improve the taste occasionally when relaxing.
After dinner, both of them were contented, holding their drinks, and came to the window to look at the night view below, pointing and arguing.
When Chen Chuan used Boundary Passport to pay the bill, the hotel platform gave him a prompt, telling him that the Boundary Fusion Company's account had paid the bill on his behalf.
He checked and found out that Fusion Boundary Company had an account connected to the Central City Public Service Platform. As the company's chief security consultant, as long as he spent money at various service places in the Central City during the New Year holidays, as long as the amount did not exceed a certain limit, the company would pay for his bills. This was considered a benefit given by the company.
He took a look at the company platform and found that everything had been normal for the past month. Meng Shu had not encountered any attacks when traveling. The Ferris Wheel Company obviously had no intention of targeting her again. So the last attack, including this one, was probably all directed at him.
He looked through the news of the past month again, especially the fringe channels. Apart from the daily violent conflicts in various parts of Central City, there seemed to be nothing particularly noteworthy during this period.
However, when I looked below, a voice message caught my attention. After the Chinese New Year, it seemed that the number of airships in the ports of various districts had increased significantly, and the number of ocean-going ships docked in the ports was also much more than in previous years.
He thought about it and realized that whether it was an airship or a ship, apart from military use, they could be used to participate in transactions and transport bulk materials and even large numbers of people.
This situation shows that the central city is not as unchanged as it seems on the surface, but is preparing and brewing something, but it is far away from ordinary people, or the upper echelons have deliberately blocked the news.
After reading it, he picked up the hot drink on the table and drank it, then took Wu Han and Wei Dong out of the hotel and drove towards his residence in Wuding District, where he planned to let Wu Han stay tonight.
Although Shutianxia Hotel also has guest rooms, they require citizenship and do not accept non-citizens. It would be better for them to stay at my own place and bring two people to get to know the place.
After bringing the two to their residence, Wu Han exclaimed again: "Junior, you have such a big house in Central City? Are all students from the main campus so good at making money?"
Chen Chuan said, "Most of the students at the main hospital are recommended students, and their families are relatively well-off. However, this house of mine came from another source. I'll tell you more about it when I have time. There's a practice room on the fourth floor. If you and Weidong feel like you can't stay idle, you can go there later."
Wei Dong's attention was immediately drawn to it, and he eagerly asked, "Is it the same training room as the one in the dormitory?"
Chen Chuanchuan said, "The area is roughly the same, but the functions are quite different. The field resources of the main hospital are incomparable to those outside. You will understand once you use it."
He took the two people around here and showed them the "Ever-Victorious General" with a flag on the top in the garage.
Wu Han exclaimed, walked forward and circled the car, "This car suits my temperament very well, junior brother, I must get one to drive in the future. 'Ever-Victorious General', this name is also good, quite meaningful, and suits me very well."
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "If you like it, go ahead and try it. I don't usually drive this car, so as long as I don't drive it outside, it's fine."
Wu Han shook his head and said, "No, Weidong is always clumsy, don't break it."
Weidong asked curiously, "Why would I break it?"
Wu Han chuckled and said, "If not you, who else could it be? Remember that car we seized last time? You were driving it, right? It flipped over seven or eight times along the way. It was in such a mess when we got to the destination. The guy who took it back looked at us with disgust."
Chen Chuan smiled, and at this moment, there was a flash on his mind. He took a look and saw that it was Ni Qianqian who was contacting him, so he walked aside.
"Sister Ni?"
Ni Qianqian's voice came out, "Brother Chen, the bureau has received your report and they take it very seriously. An investigation is underway. When we were chasing another convoy during the day, we found the car parked there, but the people had already left.
The Lianwei Chongyu logo was temporarily affixed. We have already sent someone to notify Lianwei Chongyu and asked them to verify it themselves."
Chen Chuan nodded. This was most likely not done by Lianwei Zhongyu. However, since the processing bureau had this excuse, they would definitely not let it go easily. By the way, they could also let Lianwei Zhongyu mobilize its forces to investigate together. After all, this kind of behavior of impersonating other companies' names was very disgusting to all companies.
"The fighters who attacked you came from different backgrounds. We checked their identities and found that some came from overseas, some from the Shenni Peninsula, and some from the Linax Federation.
The combat implants on these people are all products from abroad, and it can be confirmed that they are uniformly customized. The two third-limit fighters are apparently outsiders hired by the platform, but the two people's past funding experiences are very obscure, which actually shows that they have similar backgrounds.
We conducted a residual bio-field test on them and found that both of them must have lived at sea for some time in the past.
Combined with the previous situation, the analysis department concluded that the mastermind behind this is most likely the Ferris Wheel Company."
At this point, she snorted, "Actually, I can guess without them analyzing it. Besides the Ferris Wheel, who else could it be? They've been the most active recently."
Chen Chuan asked, "Sister Ni, how is the bureau going to handle this matter?"
Ni Qianqian said, "This is a serious matter. After all, it's a blatant attack on a government official on National Avenue. The bureau has already reported it and requested a strict review of the Ferris Wheel Company. I heard the higher-ups are holding a meeting to study it. We'll have to wait and see the results. This won't happen overnight."
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Thank you, Sister Ni, for notifying me."
Ni Qianqian said, "Why thank me? The bureau should have given you an explanation for this matter. You can relax and take your vacation. I'll keep an eye on it and let you know if there's any progress."
Chen Chuan thanked her again and said that he would treat Ni Qianqian to dinner another day, then ended the call. Seeing that it was getting late, he didn't want to go back to Xuangong Building. After arranging guest rooms for Wei Dong and Wu Han, he returned to the study on the top floor alone.
He took out the broken knife from the daytime, and as soon as he held it in his hand, he had the same feeling as during the day.
He turned the handle of the knife in front of him and saw a pin on it. He pulled it out and found that something was flashing in the light in the gap. At the same time, his mind became clear. The source of his excitement should be here.
He poured the things out and found that they were many scattered crystal objects. He didn't know what they were, but he could clearly feel that they were good for him.
Because as soon as I got outside, I felt my mind quickly become clear and concentrated, and I instinctively felt that this thing would have a great auxiliary effect on cultivating the spirit.
It seems that the reason why Makoto is so spiritually cohesive is probably due to this thing.
He tried searching with his Boundary Password, but couldn't find anything relevant. This further proved that this thing was not simple. After thinking about it, he decided to find time to ask Senior Cao for advice. He must know what this thing is.
As for the broken sword itself... he looked at the long sword that was split into two parts. Now he had to ask the logistics team of the processing bureau to help repair it, so that it could be placed in the collection room later.
