Embers Ad Infinitum

Vol 2 Chapter 26: Things to do

"The biggest advantage of this hotel is that the owner doesn't ask anything." Bai Chen stepped on the brake and pointed to the "Ugo Hotel". "Moreover, he has a good relationship with the sheriff in charge of these streets. We don't have to worry about being caught suddenly. The man kicked the door open and searched it again."

  Long Yuehong subconsciously wanted to say that we would not do bad things in the room, but he thought of the two military exoskeleton devices and closed his mouth again.

   As long as the sheriff finds the two items, even if they do nothing, they can't clear the suspicion.

   Of course, the most likely situation at that time is that the sheriff and his men hold their heads at the same time, squat down to the floor, dare not say anything, dare not ask anything.

   While talking, Bai Chen released the brakes and drove the jeep to the parking area on the side of the "Ugo Hotel".

   "I thought the parking lot here would be underground." Shang Jian Yao looked disappointed.

   Jiang Baimian understood his feelings very well, because in the old world entertainment materials watched by the "Old Tune Group" during this period, the parking lots in big cities were often underground, and most of the areas in the ruins of the Red Stone Set were like this.

   But in the beginning, the largest city of dust and dirt was still so simple.

   Bai Chen stopped the car and pointed to the east:

   "There are underground parking lots in Golden Apple District and Red Giant Wolf District.

   "When the original city was established, part of it was renovated based on the original building, and part of it was built by the citizens themselves on the allocated land. There was no unified plan."

   "It's no wonder that the road conditions are not good, and there are all kinds of house styles." Jiang Baimian sighed with emotion.

The Golden Apple District is located in the southeast corner of the original city, close to the outskirts, and is the area where the nobles lived; the Red Giant Wolf District is located in the center of the city. The center and other institutions were the core of the original city. A large number of officials and citizens with certain status lived in this area, and various commercial houses and companies also liked it here.

   entered the "Ugo Hotel", Jiang Baimian saw the boss sitting at the front desk having breakfast and dinner.

   He is in his thirties and early forties, his skin is a bit dark, the corners of his eyes, forehead and mouth are slightly wrinkled, but the whole is not that old, his blond hair is still shiny, and there is no trace of paleness.

   His dinner is very simple, it is a plate of stewed beans and a piece of coarse brown bread.

   "Three rooms." Bai Chen spoke the need in fluent Honghe language.

   "Is there that kind, that's the kind." Shang Jianyao suddenly showed a twisted look. "Five people can live together. How many small suites are there?"

  There is something so shy...Long Yuehong muttered silently.

   This is also his idea.

   It’s safest for everyone to live together!

   The boss named Ugo shook his head, and glanced at the five people in the "Old Tune Group" with pale blue eyes:

   "Only in big hotels have suites."

   Tarnan’s proprietress Aino really has a business mind... Jiang Baimian sighed and said with a smile:

   "Then three rooms next to each other."

   "One ore per room per night, plus a deposit of 5 ore." Ugo replied calmly.

   "Living for a week first." Jiang Baimian took out a wad of banknotes and counted 26 Olei out.

   The money left by the "Old Tune Group" was used up when it was in Yecao City, and now all Olei comes from the gift of Shang Jian Yao's good brother Xu Liyan, but there is not much.

   Ugo counted the banknotes, checked the authenticity, and took out three silver and white keys with labels from the drawer:

  "."

   There is no elevator in this hotel. After Long Yuehong and others took the key, they went up the stairs to the second floor and opened the corresponding room.

   "It's pretty clean." Jiang Baimian nodded in satisfaction.

   The layout of the house is the same as most hotels. Two beds fill up most of the space. The rest of the room is filled with tables, chairs and sofas, and a small bathroom is attached.

   After a short break, Bai Chen, Long Yuehong, and Gnawa gathered in Room 202, where Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao lived.

   "That boss eats so badly, didn't the city start a hotel so profitable in the first place?" Long Yuehong asked casually while pulling a chair away and sitting down.

   That is still the person who has friendship with the sheriff.

  Bai Chen shook his head:

   "Even if he can't eat meat every day, it is not a problem to eat two or three times a week, but he is very frugal, frugal to the extent of a bit of self-abuse.

   For her from the wilderness, this thrift is almost abnormal.

   "Maybe there was any psychological trauma..." Jiang Baimian touched his metal cochlea and made a simple guess.

   She immediately clapped her hands:

   "Next, we will hold a group meeting to unify the understanding of future actions."

   Shang Jian Yao dutifully applauded.

   Unfortunately, no one cooperated with him.

   Jiang Baimian looked around and said:

   "Our main task is to find Maximian, the descendant of O'Lei in the'First City', and see what clues he has left.

"According to the information collected so far, Ole’s immediate descendants are still alive with only one granddaughter Avia and one grandson Marcus. They live at 14 Yuanqiu Street in the Golden Apple District and 57 Crown Street in the Golden Apple District. number.

   "Our plan is very simple. Find opportunities to contact them and let Shang Jian Yao make friends with them.

  "The most important thing to note about this plan is that there may be great danger hidden in the dark, and perhaps some forces are erasing all efforts to investigate the cause of the destruction of the old world or the origin of the ‘unintentional disease’.

   "So, we must be very careful, very careful, and would rather miss it than risk it."

   Hearing this, Kanawa Xueshang Jian Yao raised his hand:

"I have a question."

   "What?" Jiang Baimian asked kindly.

"Since there are forces preventing all investigations into the causes of the destruction of the old world, why don't they directly kill Avia, Marcus or other people, and let the clues be completely interrupted?" This is the most analyzed by Gnawa. Reasonable development.

   "Indeed, the laboratory in the ruins of Marsh No. 1 was blown up by Qiao Chu." Jiang Baimian nodded.

   Snap, Shang Jian Yao grabbed his right and punched his left palm:

   "I know the reason!"

   Seeing that everyone turned their eyes on him, he calmly said:

   "Ole left no clues at all, Avia and Marcus didn't know anything."

   Then what shall we do in First City? Long Yue red belly slandered.

   Bai Chen said carefully:

   "Maybe Avia and Marcus have been tightly protected by the'First City', and that force can't succeed."

   Jiang Baimian nodded gently:

  "This may be relatively higher. In any case, the'Initial City' is the largest power in the dust, and it would be too shameful to be unable to protect even two people.

   "This also reminds us to be more careful. Our enemies are not only hidden saboteurs, but also protectors of the ‘First City’."

   Having said that, she smiled bitterly:

  "Now let’s take a step forward, we still have too little information.

   "Alright, the second thing that needs to be done is to contact the Zhao family liaison, go to the manor on the outskirts of the city to investigate, and strive to raise a certain amount of funds within this week.

   "The third thing is to go to the local hunter's guild~www.readwn.com~ to sell them the information that the white giant wolf may have other abilities."

   This will be supported by Qiao Chu's various performances at the time, and it is full of gold.

"The fourth thing is to contact the company's intelligence officer in the first city. The fifth thing is to find Han Wanghuo, we have to observe him. The sixth thing is to visit the team of Bai Xiao and Lin Tong, they still owe us a meal. Feast..." Shang Jian Yao helped Jiang Baimian make up the rest of the arrangement.

   Jiang Baimian "Heh" said:

   "What you said is right!"

   At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from somewhere.

   Shang Jian Yao leaned over to the window and looked outside, but because it was the second floor and was blocked by many buildings and obstacles, he could only see people coming and going on the street.

   As for vehicles, not too many, mainly bicycles.

   "Go down and ask." Jiang Baimian said after considering it for a few seconds.

   The five members of the "Old Tune Team" quickly returned to the lobby of the "Ugo Hotel" and found that the boss was also standing at the door, looking into the distance.

   "What happened?" Bai Chen asked.

   Ugo said with a slightly complicated expression:

   "In the past week, these streets, the third one has been ‘unintentional’."

   As soon as his voice fell, the loud speaker on the telephone pole outside suddenly heard a voice:

   "Due to the shortage of water resources, the water will be cut off after 7 o'clock tonight and come at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."
