Chapter 1376: Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang
Heat City, Mouse Street.
Several drunks walked through the alley with their arms around each other's shoulders. The smell of alcohol on them covered up the smell of sweat. Having worked hard all day, only by drinking heavily at night could they relieve the fatigue of the day.
Heat City was very prosperous, at least most areas were, but in this prosperous city, there was no shortage of slums. In an era where technology was relatively backward, coupled with Heat City's fierce folk customs, the crime rate in the slums remained high.
Mouse Street was the slum of slums. Dozens of gangs of all sizes occupied this place, giving it an order different from other areas.
After midnight, Mouse Street was the territory of gangs and refugees. Even Heat City's security forces would not easily set foot here.
Mouse Street had three orders that must never be broken: first, no human trafficking or businesses related to humans themselves, such as organ trafficking; second, no active attacks on Heat City citizens; third, no use of firearms or other thermal weapons here.
To civilians and security forces, the gangs of Mouse Street were lawless, but these gangs knew that the truly terrifying force of the Geya Alliance was the military. They dared to act recklessly here, but the military only needed to send one battalion to uproot them within 24 hours.
Existence is reason. These gangs could do some things that the Geya Alliance officials found inconvenient to do themselves, such as controlling refugees with relatively bloody means. Because of this, the Presidential Palace in Heat City turned a blind eye to the gangs of Mouse Street.
These gangs clearly had a good sense of self-awareness, knowing what could be done. Once a gang rose up that did not follow the rules, other gangs of all sizes would swallow up this rule-breaking newcomer in a short time.
A truck drove along Mouse Street. Su Xiao sat in the passenger seat. This vehicle was sent by Lai Zong, and Su Xiao did not mind Lai Zong knowing about this.
On the contrary, Lai Zong's intervention could allow Su Xiao to find the location of the secondary space coordinate faster. Whether it was the Sun Kingdom's spy or their own traitor, to Lai Zong, these were also enemies.
From every aspect, Lai Zong's intervention in this matter could become Su Xiao's help. Of course, Lai Zong could also gain merit in this matter, paving the way for his promotion.
Lai Zong, the head of the intelligence organization, was no saint. Women, money, status—he liked them all, but he would not be blinded by them.
As the truck drove by, groups of three or five refugees could be seen from time to time on the side of the street. They were dressed in rags with sallow complexions, but their eyes revealed fierce glints.
"Should we do a job?"
A homeless man wrapped in a dirty blanket, curled up on the side of the street, spoke. As he spoke, he reached out to scratch the festering sores on his face.
"It's the military."
"Then forget it. I still thought it was Heat City's security forces."
"Would the security forces dare to come here at this time?"
"Uh, that's true."
The fierce glints in the homeless men's eyes faded, and they continued to curl up on the side of the street. They were like mice, swarming when they encountered food, no matter what the food was.
Inside the truck, Su Xiao appeared to be resting with his eyes closed, but in reality, he was contacting Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang.
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, that idiot, was still in the snowfield. It had already started to form a gang among the Icefield Wolves. It was said that the number two male wolf among the Icefield Wolves had already been brought under its command. Now, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was accumulating strength, preparing to challenge the alpha wolf.
This situation occurred because Su Xiao had sent Amu to help Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang. Now, this combination of idiot + glutton was already a significant group within the Icefield Wolf pack, ranking second in power.
According to Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's description, the ordinary animals in this world were nothing special, but some polar animals had not-low intelligence, such as the Icefield Wolf pack; they had a perfect hierarchy.
These fierce polar creatures were very strong, but they dared not provoke humans, and even dared not set foot on human territory, only able to live in the polar regions. Humans were the absolute top-tier creatures; under the advance of a large army, polar creatures could not block thermal weapon bombardment.
The situation on Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's side was very optimistic, so Su Xiao did not plan to rendezvous with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang for the time being. Although Amu was not a weak combat force, Su Xiao would soon head to the thermal weapon battlefield. On the thermal weapon battlefield, Amu would just be a thick-skinned target.
Creak~
The truck stopped suddenly, and Su Xiao's body leaned forward slightly.
"Mr. Bai Ye, we're here."
A black young man with skin like charcoal and very white teeth when he smiled spoke from the driver's seat. He was an Egabi person; after joining the Geya Alliance, he became a Geya person.
"Where is this?"
Su Xiao pushed open the car door and got out. This was a street that was not very wide, with two-story or three-story buildings on both sides. These buildings were pitch black inside, and a faint stench of rot drifted into his nose—the unique smell of a sewer.
"Mouse Street."
The black young man jumped over a stinking ditch and walked quickly to a three-story building, starting to knock on an iron door with a rhythm.
Several men in different attire jumped out from the truck's cloth shed. Some were construction workers, some were tailors, but they all had one common identity: agents of the Eye of Losi.
Several people dragged two long cloth bags out from the truck's cloth shed. There was something struggling symbolically inside the bags, but they were soon carried by these people toward the three-story building.
The rusty iron door of the three-story building opened, and a woman with a cigarette between her fingers and wearing black leather boots walked out. She signaled for everyone to carry those two bags into the three-story building.
"Hello, I am Shalin."
Shalin threw away the cigarette in her hand and greeted Su Xiao.
"Kukulin Bai Ye."
Su Xiao did not know why "Kukulin" was added before his pseudonym, but the military records were like that, and he would not take the initiative to reveal any flaws.
"I've heard of you. I didn't expect that the two of us would actually be able to cooperate."
Shalin was an intellectual beauty. If it weren't for the pistol under her long skirt and the three poison blades hidden in her cuffs, a large group of successful people would definitely pursue her.
Poison Beauty Shalin, one of the top agents under Lai Zong. It was rumored that she had an affair with Lai Zong, but in reality, Lai Zong would never have physical contact with this woman; he did not want to die from poisoning.
Dying from accidental poisoning due to flirting with a female subordinate—perhaps there was no more shameful way to die than this.
"How long will it take?"
The reason Su Xiao came here was to get information from that spy and the Bishop through Lai Zong's subordinates.
"The specific time cannot be determined. That Bishop named Spike is very difficult to deal with."
"At most, how long will it take?"
Su Xiao did not have much time. If it required several days of interrogation, he would have to find another way.
"In a hurry?" Shalin thought for a moment and said, "If the methods are more extreme, at most 12 hours."
"12 hours, acceptable."
Su Xiao walked toward the three-story building on the side of the street. Before he even entered the door, he vaguely heard wailing sounds coming from the room. ===== CHAPTER 1377 =====
