Chapter 41 Request



There was only one address on it - No. 118, 1st Labor Community.

The church route is not feasible, and this is the only way Levi can think of that might help him enter the White Tower.

Although the labor union president named Li Ming seems to have no power at all, even if he is a dog of the parliament, it is not something that Yu Guang's workers can become just because they want to.

He is obviously the highest-ranking person among the workers. If we contact him, how much help can he provide?

Li Wei looked at the address on the piece of paper and thought about it, and finally decided to go find Li Ming and give it a try.

Fengzi definitely couldn't follow this time. Her physical problems seemed to be even more serious. Not only did she return to her previous limping state, but she also coughed frequently and looked extremely weak.

Levi didn't know that this was because she had taken medicine to forcibly repair her body, but he could guess that she had paid a great price to return to normal.

So that night, Levi let Fengzi stay alone in the rental house, and he opened the door and walked into the rainy night, sneaking towards the direction of Block 1.

Tian Yuan transferred almost all the police officers to Yu Guang. Not only did they conduct carpet searches during the day, they also arranged patrols everywhere at night. Whenever they met someone on the street in the middle of the night, they would arrest them without saying a word.

After obtaining [Cell Regeneration], Levi's control over his body became even better. He silently avoided all the police officers on the road, passed through the entire 2nd Block, and finally arrived at No. 118, 1st Block.

This is a house that looks no different from other sheds. The lights inside the house have been turned off and it seems that the owner has gone to bed.

He knocked gently on the shed door.

After a while, a vigilant question came from inside the room.

"who?"

"The person who asked you to help return his eyes." Levi replied in a low voice.

After he finished speaking, the room was quiet for a few seconds. Then, without turning on the light, a faint sound of footsteps approached the door and opened it.

Li Ming's weathered face poked out, and after looking around and seeing that there was no one following Li Wei, he led him into the house.

As the president of the labor union, Yu Guang is the head of hundreds of thousands of workers, but his home is surprisingly plain and simple.

The furnishings and decoration were no different from the rental house Levi rented.

When Levi was brought in, the bedroom door was closed. It was obvious that Li Ming's wife and children were inside. He did not want his family to meet Levi and involve them in this matter.

"I would like to ask you for help. Is there any way for us to enter the White Tower?"

Levi didn't exchange pleasantries or say any unnecessary nonsense, he just went straight to the point.

In response to this, Li Ming shook his head decisively.

"You can't go in. Usually only councillors or big factory owners are qualified to enter the tower. Even during the Glorious Festival, only some Yaoguang residents with special identities are invited to celebrate the festival together. No one in Yu Guang, except those related to the church, including me, is qualified to do so."

Hearing this answer, Levi couldn't help but smack his lips.

However, Li Ming was silent for a while, then he stared at Levi and spoke.

"But if you just want to sneak into Yaoguang and get closer to the tower, I might be able to find a way."

Moreover, because of the incidents between him and Fengzi, the police department has launched a thorough investigation into Yu Guang, and it is not safe for them to continue staying here.

"Okay, you arrange it. What time and place?"

"Tomorrow morning, a batch of metal parts produced in the Barrier Field will be pulled into Yaoguang by train. We will need to stop at Yuguang's special station to resupply coal. You will wait for me next to Station 76 before 6 a.m. Don't let anyone else see you. I will take you in."

"That's settled then."

Just when Levi thought that this trip was over and that being able to sneak into Yaoguang was a good result, and was about to leave, Li Ming stopped him with a hesitant look on his face.

"Can I ask you to do me a favor after you go to Yaoguang?"

When he saw Levi's eyes on him, he hurriedly spoke again.

"This favor has nothing to do with my helping you go to Yaoguang. Even if you don't agree, I will still fulfill our agreement just now. But if you are willing to help, I can pay you a certain amount of compensation."

Levi, who was about to get up, sat back in his chair and picked up the untouched cup of tea on the table.

"Tell me about it."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"I have a niece. Her father and I were brothers in love. Later, her parents died in a factory accident, and she was the only one left in the family. She had a hard life as a girl, and she was very strong-willed. She didn't want to accept my financial support for nothing. At that time, there happened to be a member of parliament with a good reputation who wanted to find a few suitable maids from Yu Guang, so I introduced her to him."

"I have been communicating with her over the years. She said that she lives well there and that the host family takes good care of her, but I always feel that she is hiding something. After you arrive in Yaoguang, can you help me go and see her? If she is really living well, then there is no need to disturb her. If the family treats her badly, please take her out and I will find a way to bring her back to Yuguang."

He finished his request with hesitation, then quickly spoke.

"Of course, I am willing to pay a compensation. This is what I have saved over the years. It is not much, but you will definitely need money when you arrive in Yaoguang."

Before he finished speaking, two lines of prompts popped up in Levi's mind at the same time.

[Trigger the mission "Visit": Find and visit a girl from Yuguang. If she is in a bad situation, bring her back.]

[Task Reward: 30,000 Legal Money]

Looking at the triggered task, Levi looked at Li Ming who took out three stacks of money from the safe nearby.

Under Li Ming's expectant gaze, he did not agree immediately, but asked after pondering for a moment.

"Do you have any IOUs from factory owners living in Yaoguang who owe wages or compensation to workers but never pay?"

Li Ming looked at Li Wei blankly, not understanding why he suddenly asked this question, but after thinking about it, he still said.

"The workers are in direct contact with the factory through the foreman. Even if there is such an IOU, it will not be in my hands. But if it is other contracts and IOUs without payment."

As he spoke, he turned back to the safe and after searching for a while, he found an account book at the innermost part.

Holding the account book, he sat back in front of Levi.
