This world is terrible

Chapter 221 Major Discovery
"Uncle, did you remember something?" Gao Yi asked.

The latter, who was overwhelmed by emotions, ignored Gao Yi, still holding his head, whimpering in grief.

Gao Yi took a sip of coffee, remembered what the store manager said earlier, and thought carefully.

coffee……

In other words, the scene or experience related to coffee touched the dusty memory?

Gao Yi opened the thousand-degree map, centered on his own community, that is, the place where the soul first appeared, spread radially to the surrounding area, and screened out the coffee shops that existed there one by one.

Fortunately, so far, regardless of the producer or the taster, coffee is still a project with a threshold. Gao Yi found not many stores, about seven or eight.

"Next, it's time to take the uncle to hit the big luck."

He wrote down the information of the coffee shop in a memo one by one, and stretched himself: "Almost, it's time to go."

Outside the window, the heavy rain had stopped at some point.On the road, there was a wet scene, and the cool midday wind swayed the verdant eucalyptus trees, swaying gently.

"Guest, are you leaving?"

The store manager at the front desk who was wiping the cups saw Gao Yi get up and smiled.

"Yes."

The expression on Gao Yi's face was relieved: "Thank you, manager, for your words, which made me find the way forward again."

"Welcome next time."

The store manager raised his round cap and gestured with a gun: "Then, I wish you a smooth journey, ciao~"

Jingle ~

Gao Yi walked out of the coffee shop, took a breath of fresh air, and was about to leave for the first coffee shop.

In his pocket, the phone vibrated suddenly.

"Hello? Descartes."

"How about it, what new discoveries have Zishan made?"

on the other side of the phone.

Descartes stood in front of the hotel's LCD TV, staring at the hijacked Zishan excavation site on the screen, his voice trembling unconsciously.

"Mr. Gao……"

"You never imagined what was found under the farmhouse."

……

——12:56 PM
East China Sea, Executive Board Building.

Tuk Tuk!

Director Tao raised his head, looked at the office door that was knocked, rubbed his brows wearily, and stood up from the chair: "Please come in."

Click.

The door opened, and a middle-aged man who was about the same age as Director Tao walked in, and looked around at the layout of the office.

The person who came was obviously one of the earlier jury members.

"What's the matter, old friend, you came to me suddenly..."

Director Tao walked to the sofa, lifted the lid of the pot, poured the tea into it, and said without raising his head, "Since you went to the headquarters, we haven't seen each other for many years."

"Yes."

The middle-aged man also showed nostalgia, and sat down: "In the blink of an eye, it's another eventful year."

What others seem to be a nonsensical conversation, to them, is a kind of hidden encrypted communication, with peer-to-peer holding of information to complete mutual confirmation.

"You're in big trouble this time."

The middle-aged man leaned on a little tiredly: "The successor of the old fool, one of the eight upstarts, why did he focus on you?"

Director Tao rinsed his cup, and the whole action was done in one go: "From ancient times to the present, all struggles are nothing more than the word interests.

"The upstart who has not been in power for a long time urgently needs an opportunity to win over the old and new followers, and at this time, it happens to be the local review period for the hostile faction."

"You said, would he not do this kind of effortless good thing?"

Director Tao looked thoughtful: "This leader of yours has no intention of investigating at all. I'm afraid he was determined to get rid of me from the very beginning."

"No accident, I guess at this time, he should be leading someone to act in private?"

Director Tao brought a cup of tea.

The middle-aged man was noncommittal, with a sullen expression on his face: "It's too unruly for him to do this. In this way, what's the point for us."

"Pointless."

Director Tao said leisurely: "In fact, from the very beginning, when he used his power to change the jury candidates for the second time, you have already lost the sacred mission entrusted by the original rules."

"Now you are nothing more than a group of onlookers, items drifting among chess players. You know, old friend, we were supposed to be born for stability."

The middle-aged man watched Director Tao take out tea leaves one by one, without saying a word.

"But because of the increasingly fierce battle at the adjudication seat, it had to become what it is today."

"If you don't stand in line, you would rather die than follow, it's too idealistic."

"Stand in line, join forces..."

"Your city is no longer your city, it's just a fermenting place of ambition, operated by their lawless black box."

The middle-aged man still chose to remain silent, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "So, originally you planned to pass the handle of the person above you to all the judging seats through the selection of jury members from different factions?"

Director Tao nodded slightly, and explained: "There are so many, reputation is often more useful than strength."

"Unfortunately, I didn't expect the original plan. It would be disturbed by him. Not only did I not share the truth, but I plunged myself into a huge ground zero."

"Once some things are discovered, I will definitely become the target of public criticism. The abandoned soldier above will not have any influence at all."

Director Tao took a sip of tea, with a self-deprecating smile on his face: "Maybe it's because people are not as good as heaven, or maybe it's because of a bad move. Anyway, after this review meeting, I guess I'm going to leave... ..."

"Old friends, the more difficult days in the future... all depend on you."

Hearing Director Tao's words, the middle-aged man was sad, but also had a sense of crisis: "The family behind the Eight Seats has accumulated power for a long time, and how many forces have been associated with them..."

"The executive board says it's an official organization, but how many people are left who really do things..."

"But it's all at the mercy of them."

Outside the corridor, footsteps sounded, the two of them kept silent and looked in the direction of the door.

Tuk Tuk.

Outside, there was a knock on the door.

The two breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, Director Tao said:

"Enter."

Click.

A subordinate pushed the door and entered with a look of urgency on his face.

"Director, there is news from Zishan."

Director Tao stood up together with the middle-aged man, frowned and said, "What's going on? Why did you tell me the news about Zishan City?"

"Some time ago, there was another change in Zishan. The authorities conducted an in-depth investigation and made a major discovery."

The confidant handed over a document, panting: "When it comes to the secrets of the year, the cities that participated in the joint investigation all have the right to know."

"Look."

Director Tao took the document, and a set of extremely clear pictures on the title page first attracted his attention.

In the picture, several excavators surround a farmhouse. It seems that they have been working for a long time, and a large hole has been dug out of the entire underground of the house.

And the great discovery is coming from underground!
