Qin Che had thought he would be able to meet the gerbil in two or three days, but in reality, he had to wait eight days.
For the past eight days, he has not gone anywhere but has been meditating in the underground lounge of the Shell Community, constantly collecting points of light in the black tide.
Unfortunately, no new techniques were discovered.
However, it completely filled its own psionic energy.
Name: Qin Che
Age: 18
[Psionic Power: 350↑/350 (Instant Teleportation, Telekinesis)]
Neural Modification (Supernatural I)
[Mechanical activity value: 92%↓]
The full value of his spiritual energy made Qin Che feel very safe.
These past few days, he's been staying in the Shell Community, where he has no worries about food or drink, and Xue Lei's subordinates can take care of anything he needs, just like a pampered old man.
If we calculate the time, we can conduct the simulation again in another day.
But on that very night, Xue Lei returned with several of his men, looking disheveled and cursing under his breath.
"Damn it, those soldiers... I really want to kill them all!"
During this period, the situation in the fourth and fifth districts was very bad. Many residents were evicted and had nowhere to go but to seek refuge in the underworld.
The Second and Third Divisions, in coordination with the security forces, sealed off these two districts, treating everyone as a potential biker gang member. They arrested and killed a number of people, which aroused public outrage.
Riots broke out continuously in the fourth and fifth districts, resulting in many deaths.
When Qin Che saw Xue Lei, he even had injuries on his face.
What's going on outside?
Xue Lei sat down next to him, cursing, and said, "The soldiers are searching for spies in the fourth and fifth districts."
"The biker gang hasn't been dealt with yet?" Qin Che asked him, frowning.
"It was resolved long ago. It's just that someone higher up deliberately escalated the situation, trying to thoroughly clean up the chaos in Districts 4 and 5. They arrested a lot of people, accused you of being a spy, and executed you on the spot. Haven't you seen it these past few days? All the residents of Districts 4 and 5 have moved to the Black Street. The corpses outside are piled up like mountains, and they're being burned every day."
After Xue Lei finished speaking, before Qin Che could react, he said, "There's a meeting tonight. Most of the cadres have returned. You'll come with me."
Qin Che remained silent for a moment, then nodded.
During this time, he also gathered a lot of intelligence in the underworld.
Black Street is not weak at all. It has several mines and some light industries. Most importantly, Black Street has countless cheap laborers.
However, the technology is far inferior.
There is only one weapons workshop, and it cannot produce weapons on a large scale.
In these dozens of communities, the most bustling industry is prostitution, followed by pharmaceuticals and alcohol.
Even this was only possible because someone was protecting him.
The lack of food resources is not just a problem in Black Street, but a problem for the entire Sandcastle.
Looking around, all he could see was reinforced concrete and dry sand. Many buildings were weathered or covered in rust, giving him the impression that they could be broken with a single touch.
The only thing you can see from here from a high vantage point is the tall tower in the inner city wall.
Brand new and straight, reflecting the sun's rays, I've heard that it's the Sand Dune Tower of District One, located in the very center of the entire sandcastle.
Merchants and traders from outside the city do not go through the fourth or fifth districts; they go directly through the third district to enter the inner city wall to do business.
Inside the walls, there is peace and tranquility, while a few indulge in extravagance and debauchery.
Outside the wall, chaos reigns, with corpses and garbage awaiting incineration.
This place looks like an abandoned recycling center. Hey, there are quite a few rusty garbage disposal facilities here, looking like they could break down at any moment.
That evening, Qin Che and Xiao Tao got into Xue Lei's car and headed to the largest community in Black Street.
This place is named after the 'Germain-descended' species, and there are about 21 cadres in the entire Black Street, including Xue Lei.
That's equivalent to 21 communities.
The closer you are to the gerbil community, the better your life will be; the further out you go, the more chaotic and mixed the area becomes, especially in the fourth and fifth districts.
Ironically,
The gerbils, who outwardly protected the Black Street and made the people of Districts 4 and 5 'prosperous and wealthy', actually had their primary business being the organ trafficking and slave trade.
He has a standard assembly line.
The organs harvested from the massacres were refrigerated and placed in warehouses, each labeled with a number, and sold to people inside the Great Firewall in three grades: 'superior, medium, and inferior,' or smuggled to merchants outside.
Black Street dreads those organ butchers under the command of the Gerbils, and everyone avoids them like the plague.
At this moment, community cadres gathered, each accompanied by their subordinates, all of them looking fierce and menacing.
After Qin Che and Xiao Tao got out of the car, they followed Xue Lei out of the car and attracted a lot of attention.
Central Square.
Xue Lei led his subordinates over to chat and joke with the group of cadres.
Qin Che leaned against the front of the car and waited quietly. Xiao Tao murmured to herself beside him, as if trying to calm her nerves, taking deep breaths one after another.
"What are you doing?" Qin Che asked with a smile.
"Sir, this is the first time I've ever seen a gerbil leader, I'm a little scared."
Qin Che: "You don't need to say anything, what's there to be afraid of?"
His purpose in coming here this time was clear.
Using his status as a superhuman psychic, he used money to sway the gerbil.
First, obtain a legitimate identity within the inner city walls; presumably, the gerbil has the capability to do so.
But Qin Che sensed that the negotiations would not go smoothly.
Something's happened in the underworld.
Based on the situation Xue Lei described, he could also imagine some possibilities. After all, the army's actions against the Fourth and Fifth Districts were shaking the foundation of the Black Street.
You could tell from the atmosphere at the scene.
The cadres all looked very serious.
A short while later, Xue Lei returned with a gloomy expression and said, "The boss is angry. I'm afraid this meeting will last a long time."
"What about my situation?" Qin Che asked directly.
"I'll talk when I have time, but... I'm afraid I won't be able to get a word in edgewise."
Although Xue Lei was also a cadre, his status in the Black Street was not high; he was at the bottom.
Unless it was an emergency, he really couldn't say anything at this meeting.
Qin Che thought for a moment, "If it really doesn't work, you can introduce me, and I'll go and talk to them myself."
"I'm just afraid the boss won't be in the mood to befriend you anymore..."
As soon as the words were spoken, the door of a dilapidated church at the end of the square was slowly pushed open.
A middle-aged man wearing a floral shirt walked out of the door with several subordinates. He had a cigarette between his fingers, and you could see that his ring finger was missing. Underneath his shirt were bulging muscles, and he was as strong as an ox. There was a hint of domineering glint in his eyes.
The gerbil coughed twice and spat on the ground.
The next second, the bells of the entire church behind him rang.
The low, heavy chimes rang rhythmically several times, so loud that they seemed to carry throughout the entire dark street.
Everyone, including Qin Che, simultaneously felt their minds suddenly become much calmer.
The scattered cadres gathered together and silently bowed to the gerbil.
The gerbil threw away his cigarette, put his hands on his belt, nodded expressionlessly, and turned to walk back to the church.
Before leaving, Xue Lei glanced at Qin Che and said, "Just wait."
