Chaos in Sector B
At this point, the Jeep's tires had been punctured, rendering it undrivable.
Originally, Zhao Jin was going to give the car to Chen Wang, but Chen Wang was rich and didn't lack the money. The thugs also had two jeeps, so Chen Wang picked one and got in with Zhao Jin.
Zhao Jin was driving, Chen Wang was sitting in the passenger seat. He rolled down the window and lit a cigarette.
He handed another one to Zhao Jin, as a middle-aged businessman, took it and quickly thanked him.
After lighting a cigarette, some color returned to his pale face. He started the car again and drove off. This time, he didn't encounter any danger.
However, Zhao Jin would occasionally steal a glance at Chen Wang on the way.
The man leaned back in his chair and gently exhaled a smoke ring, but the next second, he spat, "Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!"
The car sped along, kicking up yellow sand, and the wind was also very strong outside.
Chen Wang was smoking by the window just now. Although his movements were very cool, he ended up eating sand.
Zhao Jin's hand trembled, and he looked at Chen Wang.
"Mr. Chen, are you alright?"
Chen Wang glanced at him and said, "Boss Zhao, don't be so nervous. I'll take the money and send you to the Shelter. As for that secret, I'm not interested."
Old Yang was clearly setting a trap for himself and for Zhao Jin, but Chen Wang simply ignored him.
Zhao Jin remained silent for a moment, glanced at Chen Wang's expression, and then slowly exhaled.
"Mr. Chen, you are a man of your word."
Chen Wang remained noncommittal and rolled up the car window.
I was about to light another cigarette, but then I remembered that I had inhaled a mouthful of sand while smoking, so I gave up.
Chen Wang thought for a moment and said calmly, "Originally, since you went to Sector B, we might not see each other again. However, if you need any High-Level Potion as payment for anything, you can contact me."
Zhao Jin nodded.
"Good."
They were not far from the Shelter B and soon arrived at their destination.
Chen Wang did not ask Zhao Jin what his story was with Old Yang, nor did Zhao Jin ask Chen Wang how he figured it out.
Adults should try to avoid discussing things too intimately with someone they don't know well.
Upon arriving at Sector B, they drove in and, after providing their passes and identification, quickly entered. The Shelter were all similar in style, and there were groups of armed thugs on the streets. In some dilapidated bars, there were muscular men with guns drinking large glasses of alcohol, accompanied by women with gaudy makeup and revealing clothes.
Chen Wang noticed that one of the men, a tall, burly man with a blonde woman tattooed on his chest, was stuffing several bills into the collar of a petite woman he was holding. Then, amidst the gasps of the crowd, the man picked the woman up, slammed her onto the table, and lifted her skirt.
The people around him cheered him on, and the woman had a flirtatious smile on her face, looking extremely seductive.
"Damn, this place is really wild!"
Chen Wang shook his head.
The jeep slowly drove along the road, and he glanced at the people around him.
The Shelter in Sector B gave him a different feeling; it seemed... a bit more chaotic.
He and Zhao Jin arrived at the designated place, a Zhao Jin -class area. Upon seeing Zhao Jin, one of the dirty little boys playing football immediately ran away.
Soon, a woman in work clothes with an ordinary appearance came with the little boy. She gave the little boy a piece of bread, and the little boy walked away with a grin. Several of his companions looked on with envy, but the little boy held the bread tightly to his chest with a fierce expression.
Chen Wang enjoys fine wine and beautiful women in the Winter, buys high-powered firearms, and lives in an extremely luxurious place. But what he sees before him is more like the life of a normal Winter. If he were in a slum, he probably wouldn't even see this scene, where things would be even more chaotic!
Zhao Jin walked towards the hardworking woman in work clothes.
Her face lit up with joy when she saw Zhao Jin. "You're here!"
Zhao Jin smiled and nodded.
The woman then handed Zhao Jin something that looked like a garbage bag, and Zhao Jin returned to his car and gave it to Chen Wang.
"Mr. Chen, here is the remaining 50,000 yuan. Please keep it safe."
Chen Wang took the bag and glanced at it. There was nothing wrong with the money. He nodded to Zhao Jin.
Zhao Jin said, "I had promised to give Mr. Chen a Jeep, but now that car can't be driven."
The car they were in was the one Chen Wang had stolen after he killed the thug.
After a moment's thought, Zhao Jin took out a piece of Ancient Jade from his backpack and handed it to Chen Wang.
This Ancient Jade piece is warm and elegant, carved with a child perched on a Jade Cicada.
Looking at this jade with its ancient feel, Chen Wang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Zhao Jin said to Chen Wang, "Gold is valued in times of chaos, and antiques are valued in times of prosperity. But these days, this thing is worthless. However, it was passed down in my family, so I'm giving it to you, Mr. Chen, as a token of my appreciation. I will return the car later."
Chen Wang glanced at the Ancient Jade, found it quite pleasing to the eye, shook his head and said, "Boss Zhao, you're too kind."
He accepted the Ancient Jade without refusing, and then drove away in his jeep.
After watching Chen Wang leave, Zhao Jin left with the woman in ordinary work clothes.
The woman wasn't pretty; her lips were rather thick, and her face wasn't fair. She spoke softly, "Are you leaving again this time?"
Zhao Jin smiled and said, "I won't leave as long as you don't kick me out."
A blush rose on the woman's face, she nodded, but said nothing more.
She took the backpack from Zhao Jin and carried it in her hands.
Zhao Jin clung tightly to the backpack the whole way, as if he wouldn't let go no matter what.
Moreover, this man was inherently suspicious, yet when faced with the woman's outstretched hand, he handed over his backpack without hesitation, as if it were nothing out of the ordinary.
The two of them seemed to get along inexplicably well.
After dealing with this matter, Chen Wang did not return immediately.
Instead, he drove around the city in a Jeep.
He slowly drove through a block where thugs squatted on both sides of the road, their bodies covered in exaggerated tattoos and their hairstyles extremely outrageous, their eyes eyeing Chen Wang's jeep with hostility.
Seeing that the driver was a handsome young man, they immediately felt a surge of desire, as if they were looking at a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
"This place is really chaotic."
As Chen Wang continued driving forward, the roads became cleaner, and the frequency of thugs with exaggerated tattoos and guns hanging on their bodies decreased significantly.
Chen Wang saw soldiers from the Shelter driving by in vehicles, and Enforcement Team officers with badges on their shoulders chatting on the street, occasionally glancing around.
This is where the wealthy people live in the Shelter. Although it's still a bit chaotic, it's much better than the place we just visited.
Chen Wang wanted to go to a bar to see if he could run into an arms dealer and try his luck in the Shelter.
Of course, Chen Wang mainly wanted to rest and have a drink after a three-hour car ride.
He stopped the car, took out the key, and parked in front of a steel building. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a beautiful woman walk inside.
The beautiful woman wore a tight-fitting dress, with Black Silk Stockings covering her thighs, which were round and long. She wore black-rimmed glasses and carried a small bag in her hand.
After Chen Wang got out of the car, the two made eye contact. The beautiful woman, who looked like a working professional, suddenly winked at Chen Wang and gave him a charming smile.
She was a woman as ripe as a peach, and then she swayed her slender waist as she walked in.
Watching the beautiful woman's alluring back, Chen Wang raised an eyebrow.
"Are all the Gene Soldier in this place dressed so flamboyantly?"
