Chapter 156: Mystery man

"Relief board."

Wu Sheng and Gu Nian, the two partners separated by dozens of meters, uttered these three words almost simultaneously without any prior communication and coordination.

"The one that Wang Wang broke?" Xu Wang kept thinking about this.

"It must be," Qian Ai thought more and more like, "Apart from this, we haven't encountered other abnormal situations!"

"So, that embossed plate... is the owl's switch?" Kuang Jinxin was frightened by his own guess, and looked at Wu Sheng in particular.

Chi Yingxue also glanced over, but not at Wu Sheng, but at the phone he was holding to check the time: "Did they enter?"

Wu Sheng understood what he meant in seconds, because this was also what he was going to verify.

The voice invitation is sent to "Da Shuai Yue" again.

The five partners listened to the prompt tone of the voice invitation and kept listening, no one answered, until the invitation ended automatically.

The answer is already obvious - Yue Jiajun entered the owl as usual, breaking all external contacts.

Are only 10/23 affected

Is it really because Wang Wang destroyed the purple embossed plate

Is this closure temporary, or permanent

Until the early morning, the delayed flight finally took off, and Xu Wang's team did not clarify the answer.

So, they decided not to fly - just as the flight started to check in and board, they left the airport decisively.

Of course, this little tail is still hanging behind him.

"Didn't they find that they were being followed, and then deliberately sneaked us to play..." Kong Lize stayed up all night, his eyes were like rabbits, and he found out that stalking and stalking was more suffocating than breaking through the barrier.

Jiang Dachuan leaned against the SUV window, his head bumped along with the vehicle, and he knocked on the glass, barely able to stay awake: "The air ticket you booked doesn't fly, so you're just slipping us? The cost is too high."

Kong Lize: "Have bought the badge booklet, do you think they are short of airfare?"

Gu Nian closed the novel and raised his head: "Da Chuan is talking about the cost of time."

"It's this time, can you still read the book?" Chen Guan glanced at the novel in Gu Nian's hand, and the words on the cover gave him a headache.

Gu Nian sighed: "Sometimes reading is because the mind has calmed down, and sometimes it is because the mind can't be calmed down."

Chen Guan: "…Can we speak Chinese?"

Gu Nian smiled and stopped showing him the art of language, and went straight to the point: "They should wait and see whether this 'can't get in' is temporary or permanent."

Chen Guan's black line: "If it's permanent, what's the point of this wait?"

"If you think like you, scientists don't need to do experiments, scholars don't need to do research, anyway, it's all unknowns." Wang flatly gave him a look, this partner is also a good physique, and the fight is neat and no nonsense, or else This savage character, this stone head, looking for money, he will not hire.

"Aren't you scolding me in your heart again?" Chen Guan narrowed his eyes, his eyes full of wild intuition.

"No, you can't reach my heart yet," Wang corrected decisively, "at most, I'm just muttering to you in my stomach."

"..." He was short-handed and soft-hearted, so Chen Guan couldn't beat him, he couldn't scold him, he could only give him a foot.

"Damn it!" Wang sucked in a breath of cold air as if it was in pain, holding his calf tremblingly, with a shocked expression of "how dare you".

Chen Guan looked at him without any disturbance in his heart: "Boss, I stepped on your sneakers."

Xu Wang and the others didn't go back to the city center, so they found a hotel next to the airport to stay. Originally wanted to contact Yue Shuai after they settled down, but the other party's voice invitation came first.

As soon as the connection was connected, Captain Yue screamed in shock: "You will give me a voice after 0:00?!"

After a long time, Xu Wang finally calmed down this "shock", and then he started talking about the relief board, and also learned about the situation on Yue Shuai's side.

As they guessed, Yue Shuai entered the owl at 0:00 as usual, but because he was in Zhengzhou without any checkpoints, he entered the endless sea. They didn't go to find the treasure, they didn't go to the flying island, they floated at sea all night, everything was normal.

"I just don't know what's going on at other levels." After exchanging information, Xu Wang said casually.

"Wait for me for five minutes." Yue Shuai interrupted his voice without warning.

Five minutes later, the voice was connected again.

Yue Shuai: "1/23, 4/23, 7/23, 8/23 are all normal, and they are not closed."

Xu Wang was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "Are the other gates closed?"

"No," Captain Yue said honestly, "I don't know anyone else."

Xu Wang: "..."

Yue Shuai: "Don't be disappointed, my social circle will continue to expand in the future..."

Xu Wang: "No, it's already very broad, really."

Wu Sheng's plan is to wait for three days. Once the three days arrive, there is still no movement. No matter whether the closure is temporary or permanent, he will leave for Zhengzhou. At least not as cloudy as it is now.

However, that night, the owl call came as scheduled.

Xu Wang's team entered 10/23.

Wang Dianran's team entered the Endless Sea - they have already disqualified to enter 10/23.

The level is still the same level, the endless sea is still the endless sea, nothing has changed.

Just like a game, the server suddenly announces maintenance one day, the next day, reopens, and everything is business as usual.

Once again coming out of the owl, Xu Wang and the five no longer do any useless discussions and hesitations - discussions without results are always only guesses - buy tickets directly and fly to Zhengzhou.

Wang Duanran's team persevered and followed.

So in the crowded economy class, the two teams met - to be precise, it was Chi Yingxue who caught Wang Dianran.

Wang Xiaoye originally wanted to buy first class or business class, but there was no room, so he had to buy economy class. To be on the safe side, I picked the two most unseen rows of seats.

Originally, he made the right choice. He was separated by a certain distance from Xu Wang and the others, and each wore a peaked cap, so when they boarded the plane, they were messed up and let them fish in troubled waters. Can see who is the ghost.

However, Chi Yingxue is the ghost.

At that time, the plane had completed the climb and entered the stable flight stage. Chi Yingxue got up and went to the bathroom. When passing by the row where Wang Duan Ran was sitting, he glanced at the corner of his eye, and his eyes locked on it.

For no reason, he felt that the figure was very familiar, even if the other party was lying low, still holding his arms, and the peaked cap covered his face. But a man who used to play with him, let alone sitting there alone, even if it was turned into ashes and piled there, he could be blown away in one breath in the vast sea of people.

"Hello." Chi Yingxue's dictionary has never been polite, so he stretched out his hand to pick up the cap, and knocked twice on his forehead, "Don't pretend to be asleep."

There were three seats in a row. Wang was definitely sitting in the middle. Unexpectedly, Chi Yingxue came in with his arms outstretched, so his first reaction when he opened his eyes was not to look for Chi Yingxue, but to turn his head and glared at the side, reluctant to give up. Protect the boss's employees!

Kong Lize, wearing a peaked cap, pretended to be asleep, continued to pretend to be asleep, and pretended to be asleep with his life.

In the same row, Jiang Dachuan, who was sitting in the innermost window by the window, raised his head slightly to make the peaked cap on his face more stable.

In Chi Yingxue's eyes, Wang Dianran was the only one in his eyes. Seeing people walking, he immediately narrowed his eyes lightly: "Why are you following us?"

"Who, who is following you, let's go to the endless sea!" Wang categorically didn't care how many loopholes in his words, he dealt with them first.

Chi Yingxue frowned in doubt: "You?" Looking left and right, his eyes were blank, "The other four are also on the plane?"

Jiang Dachuan by the window: "..."

In the same row, Gu Nian and Chen Guan, who are separated by an aisle: "..."

Kong Lize silently opened his eyes, looked at the slender arm in front of him through the gap in the cap, and considered whether to take a bite to justify his existence.

At an altitude of 30,000 feet, Xu Wang moved to Wang Dianran's side, and the two captains opened the skylight to speak eloquently.

In the level, everyone is an opponent, but when they leave the level, they are all unfortunate people who were unfortunately selected by the owl, and they all want to end all this early. When two people have a common pursuit, the battle lines can be unified.

In particular, there is no exclusivity in this interest - when Yue Shuai was buying intelligence, he once proposed that although one million is not a small amount, if you can really leave the owl, there will definitely be no less people who buy it. In this way, the value of intelligence will be lost. Will be discounted because of the increase of competitors. His original intention was to haggle the price, but he didn't think so. The seller used his ID card and household registration book as a guarantee. This method of leaving early was parallel and independent for each team, and there was no competition. That is, if team A leaves in this way, team B can also use it, and the probability of team B's success will not be disturbed because team A succeeds.

Based on the above, it is not a bad thing to bring in one more team in the front line, and it can also share the cost.

Especially a classmate as generous as Wang Dianran—

"One million, right? I'm all out, but I only account for 1/3 of the shares. I bought the information and shared it with the three teams."

Xu Wang suddenly felt that even if there was no fate, Chi Yingxue would be able to lock Wang Dianran in the vast economy class at a glance—they both radiated the same light, their name was Haoguang.

The final plan was to share the cost equally among the three teams, but because it was finalized on the plane, it was not time to tell Yue Shuai. So Captain Yue, who ran to the airport to pick up people, only had five seats left, but he didn't expect to pick up ten people.

He had never dealt with Wang Dianran's team, and he had never met him in the level, but after listening to Xu Wang's introduction, he wanted to buy information together. He immediately stepped forward, clasped each other's hands tightly, and was warm and friendly.

Xu Wang looked at Wang Duan Ran's shadow in his eyes, and always felt that the shadow was slowly turning into 330,000.

Wang Danran, who always likes to look at people with his nostrils first, has never received the same enthusiasm as such a tropical island. The key point is that the two of them did not sit in a car and chat in WeChat.

Xu Wang finally knew that Yue Shuai could inquire about four levels in five minutes. How did the complicated network of relationships within the owl come about.

It was the afternoon when he arrived in Zhengzhou. At seven o'clock that night, Yue Shuai met with the seller.

Yue Shuai went to the appointment alone, so that the other party would not see that they had three teams, and then a lion opened his mouth.

The rest of the friends were waiting in the hotel, and after a while, Yue Shuai came back. Because the intelligence of the other party is just one sentence - go to Beijing, find someone, and he will tell you how to leave early.

Dare to love this is a middleman!

However, there is no need to pay any more money. As long as you take the address slip written by him, go to Beijing to find the person, and the other party will tell you directly.

Once the fifteen partners discussed it, the process was correct. Since that person has left the owl, it is impossible to go to the endless sea again. If you want to do business in the owl, you must find a middleman who is still in the owl. If you tell the middleman directly, the middleman can get rid of him. , did it alone.

The next day, the three teams took the note and flew to Beijing again. After getting off the plane, they went straight to the address on the note.

The closer you get to the answer, the more nervous you are, the more nervous you are, and the more prepared you are. As a result, when you get to the door, you realize that, uh, the battle is a bit big.

Fifteen young men, who have been running around for days and days, stand in front of a huge iron art courtyard door.

The person who answered the door was a young man in his early twenties. He was almost frightened by the situation. If Xu Wang and the others handed out the note in time, it is estimated that the other party would have called the police.

This is a single-family villa hidden in the outskirts of Beijing. But the interior of the villa is very beautifully decorated. It is not the kind of grandeur that only knows how to stack money, but it is very tasteful and self-cultivation.

The guy took them to a door on the second floor, knocked on the door, turned around and went downstairs before the door opened.

Xu Wang looked at his back and found that he had overlooked a question—things in the owl cannot be told to outsiders, so can those who have left the owl talk to outsiders? Or should I only talk to people who have also experienced owls, or who are still in owls like them

While thinking about it, the door was opened.

On the second floor, there were only fifteen of them, and one person in the door, but now both of them are very quiet, so quiet that even the second hand of the clock on the first floor can be heard.

The door opened silently, and inside the door was a man in his forties, elegant and well-dressed, but his tall figure and broad shoulders made him destined to be out of touch with gentleness. On the contrary, even if he smiled like this now, It will put pressure on people.

Xu Wang thought that if this person was ten years younger, it would be possible to lead a team to pass all 23 levels directly.

ten years younger...

Xu Wang was stunned suddenly, and then he looked carefully at the man's facial features.

"He didn't tell me that he sold the information to three teams." The man smiled and shook his head, half serious and half joking, "Come in."

Obviously, the other party doesn't mind, and has no plans to settle accounts with the middleman.

A dozen people entered the house one after another. This is an elegant and quiet study, with huge space and bright sunlight, so many people come in at once, and it will not appear cramped.

Wu Sheng took two steps and found that Xu Wang hadn't followed, and immediately turned around to see his captain still standing at the door.

"What's wrong?" There was worry in his eyes.

"I've seen him." Xu Wang said.

Wu Sheng didn't react for a while: "Huh? Who have you met?"

This back-and-forth conversation drew the attention of all the friends, as well as the man.

Xu Wang's gaze also happened to fall on the man's face.

"I met you ten years ago." He said to the other party, his tone was more certain than when he had just said it to Wu Sheng.
