The owner of the mobile phone store was lying on a recliner, humming a song with his legs crossed. When he saw Wang Xiaohai jump in front of him, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground along with the recliner.
"I'm so scared!" The mobile phone store owner got up from the ground. "What's going on?"
"Buy a cell phone." Wang Xiaohai said, "It seems your store business is not doing well."
"That's because there are few people in Kra City," said the mobile phone store owner.
"Few people? Kara City is a big city, there should be quite a lot of people." Wang Xiaohai felt a little strange.
"Are you from out of town?" The mobile phone store owner looked at Wang Xiaohai warily.
Just saying that there should be a lot of people in the city makes me suspect I'm from outside? There must be a secret here!
Wang Xiaohai decided to find out.
He pretended to chat casually: "How did you know I was from out of town?"
"Because everyone in the area knows that most of the people have been taken to the military camps," the mobile phone shop owner said, "regardless of gender."
Did they find out so easily? Marquis Carla really wants to rebel!
"Enough of the small talk. What kind of phone do you want to buy?" The boss turned and walked into the store.
"Brick-branded phone, turns your phone into a brick in one second." Wang Xiaohai read out the advertising slogan.
The boss's forehead was sweating. Why are brick phones so popular?
"Boss, do you know how to get to the Marquis' Mansion?" Wang Xiaohai asked, "I have a relative working there."
"Are you here to seek refuge with your relatives?" the boss said. "The Marquis's Mansion is in the southeast of the city, but I suggest you don't go there. Things have been turbulent in Kra City lately. People have been going missing, and others have been taken to the barracks."
"Why weren't you caught?" Wang Xiaohai asked.
"Because I bribed the security captain, they always ignore me," the mobile phone store owner said proudly. "Anyone who can still walk outside now has paid."
Wang Xiaohai thought that the Marquis was greedy, and so were his employees. Generally speaking, he could guess most of the style of his superiors by looking at how they acted.
"Your phone, one thousand yuan." The boss handed over a brick-like phone and hit his head a few times. "I'll turn it on for you."
After paying, Wang Xiaohai turned and left.
Southeast? Wang Xiaohai looked over and saw that the area was covered with dark clouds above and fog shrouded the city below. His vision was obscured and he could only vaguely make out the outlines of some tall buildings.
An inexplicable feeling of danger came over him. Wang Xiaohai was already very familiar with this premonition and knew that it would be dangerous if he went to find out the news.
But he was not attacking the Marquis's Mansion openly. He was sneaking in, so the risk factor should not be great.
Wang Xiaohai put the brick phone into his pocket, jumped onto the roof, and leaped continuously to the southeast!
It is more comfortable and faster to run and jump on the roof. There are too many buildings and corners on the ground. If you run too fast, you will hit the wall if you are not careful.
It seemed that such a high-profile jump from the building did not fit in with Wang Xiaohai's plan of sneaking in secretly, so after seeing the tall Marquis's Mansion, he jumped off the building and walked along the street.
After Wang Xiaohai talked with the mobile phone store owner, he couldn't help but observe the passers-by around him. Upon looking, he indeed found the difference between him and the passers-by.
Passersby on the street all had a nameplate on their chest that read: No arrest required.
Wang Xiaohai wanted to laugh. This security team was doing such a blatant corruption. What was the point of writing "exempt from arrest"? If the higher-ups saw this, they could easily find evidence to arrest them.
The buildings on both sides are tall and exquisite, with a style similar to that of a church and a theater.
After passing two streets, Wang Xiaohai finally arrived at the front door of the Marquis' Mansion. Wang Xiaohai went around to the side and jumped in from the side wall.
The Marquis's mansion covers a vast area, almost equivalent to a small town. Wang Xiaohai guessed that there were probably tens of thousands of servants and domestic servants inside!
