"Central City's courage is so great..."
Lu Xin and others descended the mountain about ten kilometers away from Buffalo City.
The place where they got off the bus was located on a winding mountain road. The terrain was relatively high, allowing them to look down.
It was now afternoon, and the sky that had just rained was very clear. From a distance, you could see the dark buildings sitting on the green plains, like monsters crawling on the ground, looking at the world indifferently.
Before Crimson Moon incident happened, Buffalo City should have been a medium-sized city.
Even though it has become an abandoned city now, her powerful oppression can still be felt.
What can also give people a sense of oppression is the military base outside Buffalo City.
Standing where they were, they could see that a huge camp had been built in the east of Buffalo City. In mid-air, seven or eight helicopters were flying, whirring around a camp. Below, there are white tents, black military vehicles, and various temporary equipment that have just been set up. They are complex.
Trucks filled with armed soldiers were circling a city, setting up a long blockade.
"The earliest they got the news was this morning, right?"
Gecko was a little stunned. They were so far away, so they subconsciously lowered their voices. "Even if they set off immediately as soon as they got the news, it has only been only a few hours now, and they have already built such a large base hundreds of miles away?"
"This is Central City's style."
Chen Jing smiled and said, "You may say it is easy, but in your heart you will not despise your opponent. Especially this time Black Table had his mind set on Research Institute's head and touched him. Our limit. However, because Central City is so bold every time, they will inevitably be slower. Let's go and get in before they completely raise the blockade."
The decision was made and the convoy was bid farewell and the walkie-talkies were left behind.
The people in the team didn't realize it, but they took it seriously. They lifted the motorcycle that Lu Xin had left on the car, and with a wave of their hands, they also moved one for Chen Jing and Gecko. Then they stood beside the car one by one, saying goodbye to Lu Xin in tears...
"Why are you crying..."
Lu Xin felt so upset when they cried, why do they think I can't come back?
Suddenly my heart trembled, they wouldn't run away right now, would they?
I still owe myself money for half a truckload of goods...
The three motorcycles entered the small road, and after arriving on the plain, they walked through the wild grass growing everywhere so that they could not be seen from a distance. Compared with Chen Jing and Gecko, Lu Xin's motorcycle is naturally of the best quality. He listened to his own motorcycle making a happy beeping sound, and then watched the bikes Chen Jing and Gecko ride with a jingling sound, and he felt proud.
Central City's camp is set up in the east, and a blockade is being put up at this time.
So they rushed directly to the west of Buffalo City, and the grass was separated into several neat lines by their tires.
Although they had rushed as much as possible along the way, after arriving in the west of the city, they still saw armed vehicles one by one, parked around the city at intervals of one kilometer. At several major intersections, more than two armed vehicles and a dozen armed soldiers were parked. A yellow cordon is being set up, and people from outside the city are not allowed to enter or exit at will.
Buffalo City is originally a gathering place for refugees. There is not even a Administrative Hall, so it is naturally unable to compete with the military power of Central City.
Of course, Central City actually has a headache. If Buffalo City has a Administrative Hall, it might be more convenient.
Chen Jing Their car was parked in the grass in the distance, looking at the city from a distance.
Gecko said, "Rush in directly?"
Lu Xin glanced at Gecko and thought, how barbaric.
Then I also thought, if I told them that I was going to visit relatives, I wonder if they would be released...
Chen Jing looked at the two of them, sneered, and said, "Whether we rush in directly or go over to discuss with them, as long as we meet Central City, many complications will arise, which will make them defensive and make it inconvenient for us to move."
"So our principle is to try not to meet with people from Central City unless absolutely necessary..."
Gecko glanced at Chen Jing curiously. "Then..."
Chen Jing smiled and said, "We have told Central City almost all the information and findings, but have you forgotten something?"
"Huh?"
Gecko and Lu Xin both thought about it seriously and looked blank.
Chen Jing looked at a place and said, "Come out!"
Where she looked, the air seemed to be slightly distorted. Then Lu Xin and Gecko felt their eyes dazzled when they saw a little blood-red monster appear on the ground out of thin air. His body was short and his skin was red, like skinned muscle tissue. There are no facial features on the face, only two big ears, and no arms and legs. They are replaced by octopus-like tentacles.
"Ah this..."
Lu Xin suddenly reacted, with a surprised look on his face.
Or maybe I feel like something is missing all the time, and I forget about this physical evidence...
But if you think about it carefully, you don't think you have forgotten it. If you recall it carefully, you will find that it seems that this monster has always been by your side, following Chen Jing timidly. When I was picked up by them, it squatted at Chen Jing's feet. When I was recalling various information and materials in the chemical plant, it walked around boredly and watched others busy.
Even when they were discussing a visit to relatives in the carriage, it was listening.
When they rode their motorcycle to the edge of the city, it actually sat on the back seat of Chen Jing's motorcycle.
But I just never saw it...
While at the chemical plant, what Chen Jing crossed out from his report was actually about the content that would surface.
"As long as the people around you shift their attention to it at the same time, it will enter a state of being ignored."
Chen Jing explained with a smile, "After you caught it before, because the people in the convoy and Li Gang were keeping a close eye on it, it never had a chance to disappear. It wasn't until I met with them and sorted out all the physical evidence that I found that the room where something was supposed to be locked was empty. Even the memory of such an incident has faded..."
"But fortunately, the report on hand at the time made me notice that there is such a... person."
"..."
"Then... how did you find it?"
Lu Xin Because he was imprisoned yesterday, he did not have the opportunity to deeply understand the strength of this monster.
After my sister left this little monster yesterday, it disappeared again. Even I couldn't see it at any time, so now thinking about it, it was really dangerous last night. If it had disappeared in that room, how could Chen Jing find it?
"It's just different abilities."
Chen Jing said, "You can only see it if you touch it or keep paying attention to it."
"So, after someone loses sight of it, it disappears and is difficult to find again."
"However, my ability does not require me to notice it or touch it."
She smiled, pinched her sunglasses, and said, "I just need it to see me, that's enough."
Lu Xin then reacted.
Chen Jing When he realized that there was actually a little monster imprisoned in this empty room, he directly used his ability on the empty room. Affected by her ability, this little monster will appear in her field of vision and listen to her words. More importantly, Chen Jing's ability is continuous. As long as the effect dissipates, she can always see it.
A leader is a leader. The monster that gave her such a headache was solved for her in one fell swoop...
"So now we..."
Lu Xin also understood Chen Jing's thoughts at this time, and looked down at the little monster.
Facing his eyes, the little monster backed away in fear, its slender and soft tentacles hugging Chen Jing's calf, trembling.
"It has already done us a big favor. The information about Buffalo City was eavesdropped on it."
Chen Jing smiled and said, "Originally, I wanted it to go to the meeting place of Central City to help us learn more information, but it's a pity that it is a little timid." Then he lowered his head and looked at the little monster. "Send us into this city, but remember, we are not allowed to lose consciousness. If you do well, then I will consider taking you with me when I return to Qinggang, and I will also give you a job..."
When she said this, her pupils turned slightly red.
This makes her words full of charm that people cannot refuse.
But it seemed like she didn't have to do that, because as soon as she opened her mouth, the little monster nodded repeatedly, so well-behaved.
"This is probably considered waste utilization..."
Lu Xin couldn't help but sigh.
At the same time, I remembered one thing. In Qinggang, Special Purity Department and Chen Jing are not only responsible for cleaning up special pollution, but also responsible for recruiting new people...
The little monster listened to Lu Xin's words, and his emotions were obviously sad.
The slender tentacles extended out and wrapped around the wrists of Lu Xin, Gecko, and Chen Jing. Lu Xin suddenly felt a strange feeling envelope him, it was a kind of forgotten sadness. He had already felt this kind of feeling once when he faced this monster for the first time, and this time, he deliberately controlled himself not to resist this emotion.
After a while, his condition stabilized. He looked down and saw that he was still the same as before.
The sun shines down, and you have your own shadow. If you touch yourself, you also have a body.
If you pluck the weeds around you, you will also make a rustling sound, as if nothing has changed.
But when the three of them and a little monster walked directly along the road towards the city, they discovered something different from usual. They met many people, including ordinary people who planned to enter the city, and Central City armed soldiers who had set up a blockade and no longer allowed ordinary people to enter Buffalo City. These were so alive in front of them, but they couldn't see themselves.
Even if someone's eyes meet his own, they seem to be hollow, and he can't see his own appearance at all.
"Little brother, I don't know why I feel so attracted to you when I see you."
When he was a little far away from the people, Gecko quietly said to the little monster, "When we get back to Qinggang, I will take you around."
"You may not know that our Qinggang bathhouse is now the boss..."
Hmm...
