Chapter 32

Although he didn't know Lian Chuan's whereabouts, and didn't know whether the pain just now was Lian Chuan's memory or a fresh experience, but when he saw the boss, Ning Gu still relaxed a little.

After all, this is Lian Chuan's partner who dominates the main city together every day, kills people like hemp, and sees cats like dogs.

"I'm Ning Gu, you should know." Ning Gu sat on the ground, propped his hands on the ground and grinned and moved for a long time before finding a slightly less tight place for his butt.

"Do you know where I can find food?" Ning Gu pressed his stomach, "I'm starving to death, Lian Chuan stole four boxes of rations and let me eat them, but now I'm hungry again..."

The boss looked at him, because it was too dark to see his eyes clearly, but he could tell that the boss turned his head slightly.

"Didn't you think so?" Ning Gu smiled smugly, "The first brother of your cleanup team stole four boxes of rations in Lost Valley!"

The boss ignored him and turned his head away.

"I want to know that he left me the other two boxes, I'm sure I didn't eat up the first two boxes," Ning Gu sighed, "It seems that I don't mean it."

The boss moved and walked towards him.

Ning Gu stared at it vigilantly, for fear that the boss would bite him because he made Lian Chuan hungry.

Even though he usually dominates the ghost town and can walk sideways and definitely not straight, but the environment is different, he is still very able to face the reality and bend and stretch.

But the boss didn't bite him, just turned sideways and stopped in front of him.

Ning Gu saw a small leather pocket on its back.

Some couldn't believe their eyes.

This is the little leather pocket that was snatched away by Lian Chuan when he met Lian Chuan for the first time!

"Did Lian Chuan ask you to give it to me?" Ning Gu picked up the small leather bag from the boss's back.

Finger touched the boss's hair.

The fur that looks very fluffy is actually a little hard to touch, but at the same time it is smooth and smooth, very easy to touch.

He had never touched something with such a texture, and at most he touched his hair a few times.

He slowly withdrew his hand at an extremely slow speed, and quietly touched the boss's back twice with his fingers.

Before he could move his fingers away, the boss had already slammed his paw on his arm.

"Stingy," Ning Gu opened the small leather pocket and stretched his legs in front of the boss, "Return it to you, touch it casually."

The boss got up and walked away.

Ning Gu opened his small leather pocket, and found that all the gadgets he brought last time were still there, and there were two more boxes of rations.

It's not as big as the one Lian Chuan stole in Ghost City, but it smells better.

"Is it for me?" Ning Gu opened the box, "Have you eaten? Do you want to go together..."

Halfway through the conversation, he found that the boss seemed to be gone, and he couldn't hear any movement.

He was a little nervous at once, and while stuffing the ration into his mouth quickly, he stood up quickly and looked around vigorously.

"Boss?" he yelled under his breath after eating a box of rations.

The caracal did not respond to him, nor did it appear.

While stuffing another box into his mouth, Ning Gu picked up the leather bag and hung it back on his lap, tried to walk a few steps to the side, and continued to lower his voice vaguely: "Boss?"

This time there was finally a movement, the boss walked back slowly from the black mist, walked in front of him, turned around, and looked back at him.

"Following you?" Ning Gu asked.

The boss turned his head and walked forward, and he followed quickly.

The caracal cat made no sound when it walked, so he had to follow closely. This boss was even more aggressive than Lian Chuan, and he would definitely not turn around and wait for him.

The direction the boss was going was different from what he wanted to go before. Although they were all heading towards the main city, the angle was slightly off.

Normally, Ning Gu would doubt it, but now he didn't say anything.

This is Lian Chuan's caracal cat, which is still trustworthy, and even if you ask, this cat must be like Lian Chuan, ignoring people at all, and can't speak after all.

But after walking for a while, Ning Gu couldn't hold back and asked, "What's the situation with Lian Chuan now? Do you know? Is it safe?"

Sure enough, as he expected, the caracal didn't even look back.

He also knew that he asked a question that the other party couldn't answer, but he just expected the caracal cat to give him a response, but it was a pity that the caracal cat was indeed Lian Chuan's partner, and his personality was exactly the same as Lian Chuan's.

Ning Gu gave it a name in his heart.

You can call the big speaker.

Ning Gu, who had eaten something and then connected with the boss, recovered quickly, and his observation skills also improved significantly. It didn't take long for him to see that the height of the fur on both sides of the boss's shoulders was different.

"Are your two front feet... hands... front feet... hurt?" Ning Gu asked.

Of course the caracal would ignore him.

He didn't expect to get a response either, so he just added another sentence: "I'm not in a hurry, you can stop if you want, if you can't walk, I can carry you..."

The caracal turned its head back, bared its white teeth, and gave him a low growl.

Not cute at all.

Ning Gu didn't make a sound, and followed the caracal silently, walking more boringly than when he was alone.

But there is still one advantage, the caracal knows the way, and it is a safe shortcut.

When my stomach was about to go and I was hungry again, I could already see the light of the main city in the black mist, and I could faintly see the ground under my feet.

Ning Gu lowered his head. There were many sharp cuts and sharp corners on the ground. If his shoes didn't have thick soles and guard plates on the sides, his feet would definitely be gone now.

No wonder bats have to be modified. It is really difficult to live in such a place without modification.

So he can also be sure that the caracal cat's paws will definitely be seriously injured after stepping on such a ground for such a long time.

Quite guilty.

He has been punching and kicking in the ghost town for so many years. Apart from beating people, he has never cheated anyone, let alone cheated cats.

But the feeling of guilt only lasted for a few seconds, because when he raised his eyes, he saw the road that the caracal was going to take him into the main city.

It is a high metal wall with a towering top that extends into the black mist.

Ning Gu knew that many places around the main city had high walls to protect them, but even if some breaches would be guarded, it would not be possible to choose the highest place to enter...

Before he had time to ask, the caracal had already jumped onto the wall without a sound, and then disappeared into the black mist above with three or two clicks.

"Boss?" Ning Gu was shocked.

Did Lian Chuan not tell Caracal that he was just a traveler, not a bat

A low guttural sound came from the caracal in the black mist.

Probably urging him.

I don't know why the caracal thinks he can climb the wall. If it is so easy, do travelers need bats to lead the way when they enter the main city...

But he still rubbed his hands, even if he went up and then fell down, it would be more face-saving than not daring to go up for a long time.

He is not representing himself now.

He also represents the vast majority of ghost town travelers.

Years of fighting experience made him subconsciously remember the first four points of strength when the caracal cat hit the wall. There must be something in these places that can be used for strength.

He took a breath, ran a few steps with his help, and jumped up suddenly.

His foot kicked on the wall, and he slapped his hand towards the second point by virtue of inertia. His fingertips touched an irregular round hole the size of a palm. He quickly hooked his finger, and moved his left foot towards the first point. Stepping on it, it was indeed a round hole.

This is easy to handle, what is needed at this time is speed, if it is slow, it will definitely fall.

Although he didn't know how high or far he was after the four points, and where was the fifth place where he could borrow strength, but it didn't matter, let's do it first, it would hurt at most if he fell, and he might not be able to die from the fall.

Stepping on the first hole with his left foot, he continued to go up. When he stepped on the second hole with his right foot, he kicked and jumped again. His hand quickly touched the fourth hole, and his foot was still on the third hole. With a kick from the round hole, when he jumped up, he saw a protruding block. He grabbed it with his hands, and when his body swayed out, he saw another block, and hooked it with his feet.

For Ning Gu, who has struggled in metal cemeteries and garbage dumps since he was a child, this section of the climb where you can see the point of leverage is not too difficult.

But further up is the black mist.

He couldn't see the wall clearly in the black mist, how should he continue

didn't think so.

The mindless traveler never thought about going that far, even if it would be hard to live if he fell from this height, he still jumped up without any hesitation.

But compared with Nine Wings' really brainless, there is still an essential difference. While jumping up, Ning Gu also shouted in a low voice: "I'm coming!"

Caracal dared to let him follow like this, and definitely couldn't let him fall like this.

Maybe it's up there waiting to pull him.

However, Ning Gu jumped into the black mist, and when he saw the next operation, he still broke out in a cold sweat.

A rope with a very faint glow hung down from nowhere, hanging two or three meters above him.

As long as Ning Gu's jump is a little weaker, he might miss it!

If you want to change to someone with shorter arms and shorter stature, this step is over.

Caracal killed the person Lian Chuan told him to bring into the main city.

Ning Gu grabbed the end of the rope, stepped on the wall with his feet, and quickly climbed up. As long as he didn't fall, the latter part would be much easier than the previous one.

The rope did not hang from the top of the wall, but came out of a square opening a few meters away from the top. This opening, if it is ten pounds fatter, might not be able to get in.

When he was pulling the rope and was pulling his stomach and buttocks, a hand reached out from inside, grabbed his collar, and pulled him into the opening.

Ning Gu didn't expect that there would be someone else up here, the moment he was pulled into the opening, he had already reached out to take out the flash bomb in the small leather pocket and held it in the palm of his hand.

There is a platform on the other side of the opening, three meters away from the opening, Ning Gu was dragged over and thrown directly on the platform.

When he stood up, he saw the caracal's paws first, and he felt relieved.

"Just him?" a man's voice asked.

The caracal let out a low growl.

Ning Gu raised his head, the night light of the main city was enough for him to see this person's face clearly.

An old man in his fifties or sixties.

The strength is quite strong, and I can swing myself in with one hand.

"Ning Gu?" the old man asked.

"En." Ning Gu responded, stood up, and put the flash bomb in his hand back into his leather pocket.

"It's quite cautious." The old man was a little disdainful.

"Habitually cautious, you must know that you are the only one here," Ning Gu said, "I won't show it either."

The old man looked him up and down and laughed.

This laughter made Ning Gu feel a little bit familiar, or... the old man gave him a feeling of "not an enemy", but he couldn't explain how this feeling came from.

"Since the boss asked you to stay here, let's make a rule first." The old man walked up to him and raised his index finger. "One, don't mess with the things in the house."

Ning Gu looked at him without making a sound.

stay

"Second," the old man held up two fingers, "If you want to go out, ask me first..."

While speaking, a gust of wind blew up, and the scarf around the old man's neck was blown up and stuck to his face. He tore off the scarf and continued: "The third..."

Ning Gu was suddenly a little surprised.

"Are you listening?" The old man noticed that his expression was wrong and stared at him.

Ning Gu didn't speak, picked up the old man's scarf between his fingers, and blocked his face again.

"What are you doing!" The old man slapped him away.

"Crazy Uncle?" Ning Gu asked.

"Everyone back off," Minister Chen pushed open the door of his office, "shut down all communications and monitoring."

"Minister Chen..." Someone was anxiously following behind.

Lian Chuan turned his head and looked at this person.

"I'll be fine," Minister Chen waved his hand, "Stay away, and if you need anything, you can find Chief Su."

The people around did not move any more, watching Lian Chuan and Minister Chen walk into the office.

Consul General Su is the highest official of the City Affairs Department, and also the highest official of the main city. Except for celebration days, he is rarely seen.

Right now, he is probably sitting in front of a screen in an office deep underground in the City Hall, watching what is happening here.

Minister Chen stood down and tilted his head: "This place is absolutely safe now. What we say will not be recorded. I promise you will count. There will be no memory check."

Lian Chuan let go of his fingers on his throat.

"I never expected that one day you would walk into my office like this." Minister Chen rubbed his neck, walked behind the desk, sat down slowly, and looked at him, "Would you like something to drink?"

"I want to see the administrator." Lian Chuan said.

"No one has the right to ask to see the administrator, you know that," Minister Chen said, "The administrator will notify the system whoever they want to see, and we cannot reverse the operation."

"Then report to the administrator." Lian Chuan said.

"Report?" Minister Chen glanced at him, "What is the report?"

"The precursor experiment is out of control." Lian Chuan replied.

Minister Chen's hand to get the cup stopped in the air, and he stopped for two seconds before retracting his hand, looking up at him: "What else do you know?"

"I still know what you want to know." Lian Chuan said.

"Is this a quid pro quo?" Minister Chen asked.

Lian Chuan didn't make a sound.

"Chuan," Minister Chen stood up and slowly walked to him, "At this time, you need to cooperate first, instead of negotiating conditions with me when you come up, you are very strong, and there is no one in the main city who is stronger than you. But you are not indestructible..."

"I know." Lian Chuan said.

"It's good to know," Minister Chen patted him on the shoulder, "So..."

"I know you dare not." Lian Chuan said.

Minister Chen's hand was still on his shoulder, and when he turned to look at him, his expression was a little ugly.

"Besides," Lian Chuan said, "no matter how much the main city wants to destroy me, I am still the only one that cannot be replaced."

Minister Chen was silent for a long time, then slowly walked back behind the desk, propped his hands on the table, and stared at him: "Why do you want to see the administrator."

"I have something to ask," Lian Chuan said, "about myself, and it has nothing to do with the transaction between us."

trade.

Lian Chuan didn't know why he said this word.

It may be because Ning Gu trades with people eight hundred times a day.

"How can I trust you?" Minister Chen said, "You want to cross the main city to see the administrator, but you don't explain the reason to me. How can I be sure that you have no other ideas?"

"You can't be sure," Lian Chuan said, "just like I can't trust you."

"Then I have to take a much greater risk than you in such a transaction." Minister Chen said.

"Just get used to it," Lian Chuan said, "I don't trust anyone, and I have been risking my life for twenty-six years."

"Is there a secret experiment, who is involved, Ninggu's ability," Minister Chen looked at him, "I want to know what happened in Lost Valley after you meet the administrator."

"Deal." Lian Chuan said.
