Chapter 536 Chapter 533 The Abducted Scarecrow

Zhuang Xuteng trusts Brother Dao, and he will not easily make suggestions for him to leave. The current situation is likely to have changes that make Ge Gongdao very worried, and after careful consideration, he believes that avoiding the limelight is the best way at the moment.

Turn around and walk away without any sloppiness - easier said than done. Zhuang Xuteng and Morgana have just registered their marriage, and their wallet has just grown...wait a minute, the name I registered is Sen Gang, not Naike or Zhuang Xuteng. Sen Gang has a complete identity certificate, no different from Zhuang Xuteng or Morgana, and can be inspected from any angle. So Zhuang Xuteng needs to leave, Naike needs to leave, but Sen Gang will not be affected.

"It's definitely not leaving forever. Just go around and come back." Zhuang Xuteng calmed down and followed this idea. "Besides Sen Gang, I also have two false identities. One was left for me by Baiqi Grocery Store, and the other came from the identity authentication registration system. With these two identities, it is not a problem to come back secretly, so the key is how to leave. "

You must let the company know that you have slipped away, and you must not be intercepted by them midway. Zhuang Xuteng thought about it and finally found a suitable "unlucky guy". He picked up his phone and dialed a number that he had saved for a long time but had never dialed.

"If the number can't be reached, then I won't bother so much and go directly to a monitored environment, and then disappear..."

He had a backup plan in mind, but the number was dialed. No one spoke on the other side of the phone, only a short signal beeping in the background.

Zhuang Xuteng knew that this time he had to take the initiative to speak: "Palovich, I am Scarecrow Naike."

There was silence for a moment, and then Palovic finally spoke: "To avoid being tracked, there are still two and a half minutes on the call. You should seize the time to say important things."

"I have offended the company and need to hide. You have a lot of debts. Don't worry, can you send someone to pick me up or kidnap me to show off." Zhuang Xuteng said, "I owe you a favor and I can repay it later."

"Your favors...it's not easy to spend your favors. Not once can I achieve my goal." Palovic snorted and said.

Zhuang Xuteng listened carefully to his tone and felt that this matter was not something that could not be discussed. "Your goal is too big and cannot be accomplished by one favor. I suggest that we move forward step by step. Starting from a cooperation that is satisfactory to both parties and constantly accumulating trust is the right way to move towards a healthy relationship. If you think I Your favor is worthless, so hang up the phone. I don’t want you to be tracked either."

"Naike, you..." Palovic paused here, thought for a moment, and said: "Okay, let's start with a small cooperation. I lack manpower in Peicheng, so I can't arrange it as you wish. You must be very anxious now, So for two hours, the square in front of the train station, the stop sign in the direction of the No. 11 bus uplink, and the fourth street light to the east. You stand there with a pipe in your mouth. I will let someone kidnap you."

"Then I'll wait for you." Zhuang Xuteng hung up the phone.

Zhuang Xuteng’s plan is as follows: Palovich will send someone to arrest him. If the company conducts an in-depth investigation, it will eventually lead to the conclusion that “the Gardener Organization recruits Scarecrow Naike”—this is a relatively extreme situation and also the final support. explanation of. The general investigation will think that Scarecrow Naike escaped and his whereabouts are unknown, or that he followed Palovic to return favors and perform tasks. These explanations can cope with the current situation.

Only if Palovich takes over Zhuang Xuteng will the company not be able to continue tracing his whereabouts. If the White Flag Grocery Store was still around now, Zhuang Xuteng wouldn't have to look for Paro Instable Veitch at all. Of course, there are risks in finding this guy. For example, will he sell Nike's information to the company backhand?

"If he sells me, it means that the Gardener Organization has no future at all. It may even be a secret department of the company, a ruthless agent." Zhuang Xuteng has already thought about the risks involved, regardless of whether he was eventually killed by the Gardener Organization. Being "captured" or betrayed by the company, both situations can exclude the people he cares about.

"Go to the Gardener Organization. That has nothing to do with the middleman-mercenary industry." This is what Zhuang Xuteng wants. Palovich is a smart man. He immediately understood that Zhuang Xuteng just wanted to use the name of the Gardeners Organization. To put it more bluntly, he wanted to take the blame. Just carry it. The Gardener Organization has always taken the blame. Kaho disappeared inexplicably in Peicheng and was later presumed dead. Doesn't the blame still fall on the Gardener organization? For the Gardener Organization, the cost of selling the village to renew a favor this time is not high. At most, it may expose the Gardener Organization's remaining manpower in Peicheng. However, Palovic has his own way to mitigate the threat, and it actually only takes a small amount of money...

After putting down the phone, Zhuang Xuteng thought about it and felt that he still had to leave a letter to Morgana. He wrote a note indicating that he was going on a mission. This mission was to repay a favor owed to him before, and he did not go through the middleman Lucy, so he acted alone. At the end of the letter, he wrote:

"Don't worry, I know exactly what I am doing, and I have not forgotten which part of my life is the most important. You are like a whirlpool; returning to you is the most natural and inevitable thing."

The letter was not signed or addressed, for security reasons. Zhuang Xuteng gave the letter to Dr. Bukele and asked him to give it to Doyle, who then asked Doyle to pass it on to Morgana. Since Doyle had worked as a security guard at her manor for a period of time under Morgana's introduction, he would not recognize the wrong person and would not appear too abrupt when he came to the door.

After doing all this, Zhuang Xuteng left the implant care store with all his equipment and walked to the train station square. He carried the parts removed from Isabella with him. Even if these things were broken outside, it would be better than being discovered in the store.

Under the agreed telephone pole, he waited for the "bad guy" who came to kidnap him. At this time, today's news was playing in the window of the shop next to the station. Due to the mute sound, the announcer's mouth that kept opening and closing could not utter a single word. Fortunately, the subtitles at the bottom of the screen conveyed a clear message: The Canghuo Gang is wreaking havoc in the city. Brave citizens, professional security companies and dedicated The PCPD worked together to thwart the gang's actions.

Everyone knows about the four major gangs including the Canghuo Gang. The names of the gangs can make children stop crying, but they are never seen in serious news reports. This time after all three elders of the Canghuo Gang died, the name of the Canghuo Gang was finally no longer on the "no discussion" list. What does this mean? Zhuang Xuteng watched the TV program inside through the window, using Kaho's Eye to read lips and "listen" to the host's reading. In addition to some clichés about city security needing to be improved and various departments promising to strengthen management, he also mentioned the names of Blood Bat, Cemetery and Raider, as well as some medium-sized servant gangs.

"PCPD will start cleaning up these gangs in the next period of time, trying to eliminate the hidden dangers hiding in the shadows. All along, these gangs have been hiding in the dark, through remote control..."

The manuscript fully took care of the PCPD's face, calling several major gangs lurkers, conspirators, and bad guys behind the scenes using agents. It also mentioned that these gangs responded to the call to eliminate the blue savages as a social group and pretended to be kind to deceive the public - this is still making up for the PCPD. It seems that Chief Brewer Pace can continue to occupy the position. stable.

Then the conversation changed to how they would act this time. Adjectives such as vigorous, focused, and impassioned come and go, but in fact they are all clichés. The really useful information is actually hidden in this sentence: PCPD will screen the specific behaviors of these gangs, and those who are not involved in crimes and have meritorious service will not be held accountable or will be treated leniently...

This sentence is correct, but it depends on who implements it. Zhuang Xuteng felt that if he was allowed to go, none of the gang's top brass would survive. If the gangsters at the bottom performed meritorious services, they should have a chance to change their ways. But if this matter is handled by the PCPD, or to be more accurate, if the PCPD handles it under the company's advice and guidance, the result will be the opposite: everyone will die below, and the situation above will remain the same.

Zhuang Xuteng had already seen the future. He sighed deeply. Deep in his heart, he really didn't want his judgment to come true. But having said that, PCPD has not disappointed people once or twice, and the company has a long and long history of being inappropriate. This time at least the Canghuo Gang was overthrown! All other solutions are nonsense. The best way is to kill all the bad guys and leaders above.

"Everything I killed was killed by me. Hehe." Thinking of this, Zhuang Xuteng was very happy. When he first became a mercenary, he was bullied by gangs because of dismissal compensation. In earlier years, he was harassed more often by gangsters. He has always had the desire to kill gangs and vent their evil in his heart. Now I can do part of it with my own hands...

His train of thought was interrupted just as he arrived here. The reason was that an approaching van was a little weird, and the Wraith Jelly alerted him. Zhuang Xuteng turned his head and took a closer look, including probing the Wraith Spirit Jelly inside, and then he understood why he felt something was wrong.

That car was here to catch him, but the people inside were not from the Gardener organization. Why is Zhuang Xuteng so sure? The people inside were all mercenaries, he had seen them before.

"Palovic, you're quite naughty!" Zhuang Xuteng immediately understood what the kid was planning. Palovich must have thought that it was too risky to send people from the Gardener organization to pick up Zhuang Xuteng, so he issued a mercenary mission and asked nearby mercenaries to do it. Anyway, Zhuang Xuteng wants the Gardener Organization to take the blame, so the effect will be the same if the Gardener Organization sends its own people or if the Gardener Organization pays people to do it. There is no need to put people in the organization at risk when something can be done for a small amount of money.

"It's outsourcing again... but that's what mercenaries do." Zhuang Xuteng took his pipe and pretended to light it, and then he saw the car speeding up and approaching him. The car screeched to a stop in front of him, and the side door opened at the same time. The people inside grabbed Zhuang Xuteng and got into the car. They seemed a little panicked, maybe because the surveillance here was relatively intensive, which gave them enough reasons to be nervous. Fortunately, Zhuang Xuteng had the help of the Wraith Tentacle, so his luggage was not left behind in the chaos.

The gang took Zhuang Xuteng outside the city, dropped him off at a parking rest area, and then turned around and left. This is the end of the mercenary mission they received. Where Zhuang Xuteng goes next is none of their business. If anyone traces it, it is easy to think that the Gardeners organization picked up Naike here and took him away. Anyway, this parking and rest area has long been abandoned, there is no monitoring, and no one knows what actually happened.

"I didn't expect to be here again." Zhuang Xuteng rubbed his nose and looked around with emotion. Here, he and Kelly part ways, and he and Doyle fight side by side. Here, he killed two purple-skinned men and burned down a convoy transporting spiritual leaf products. It appears that the fire eventually spread and the building in the parking rest area was completely destroyed.

There's nothing to feel bad about. This place was already abandoned, so I don't care about Zhuang Xuteng and Doyle's anger. Kill all the people in the transport convoy and burn this place clean. It will be deserted and clean at the same time. Based on the surrounding environment, Zhuang Xuteng determined that no one had been here for a long time. Bad people can no longer use this place as a place to do bad things. This is clean.

After the car drove away, Zhuang Xuteng picked up his backpack and continued on his way. He stepped over the railing and walked into the plain. He wanted to go until he was near the railway line. After that, Zhuang Xuteng waited for the train he needed to arrive, used the explosive power of the implant to jump on it, and then slid the door and picked the lock to enter the carriage. Wait for the flight attendant to come over and buy a ticket, then find a corner to sleep.

After several jumps between trains, he finally approached the destination of his trip: the Shadow Realm Passage. While everyone on the train was waiting to enter Constitution City, Zhuang Xuteng had quietly jumped out of the train and left. Before that, he had memorized the map and knew the surrounding terrain well. After jumping out of the car, he checked the direction and then walked towards the place marked by Dr. Booker.

Since communications were completely shut down, Zhuang Xuteng did not know the situation of those who stayed in Peicheng. His only source of information was the news he saw along the way. The news reported on the key actions to clean up gangs in Peicheng, and the only gang name mentioned this time was the Canghuo Gang. This further confirms Zhuang Xuteng's theory: Only by killing the leader and forcing the organization to die will it die. Otherwise, whether it is reviving a corpse or changing its name, it will always find a way to survive and cause endless disasters.

Hiding his traces and guarding against being followed all the way, Zhuang Xuteng wanted to reduce his traces as much as possible, so he neither stole nor robbed nor said anything, pretended to be mute and deaf, paid only in cash, and after getting off the train, he only used his feet to measure the distance. He followed the map and crossed the path to the fourth satellite city of Constitution City. This is a holy place for healing. There are dedicated people here who care for the precious animals and plants, making this town with hot springs always lively and lush.

Supplies can be obtained from here - Zhuang Xuteng observed the surrounding environment while walking, but he still did not dare to enter a small town where there might be a large number of cameras. He walked around the outside of the town and came to a sewage treatment plant. After the new factory was established, it was basically no longer used here, with only a minimum of manpower left to maintain daily maintenance and be ready to act as an emergency plan at any time. In the outer corner of the factory, Zhuang Xuteng found the location described by Dr. Bukele.

A dark, dirty, shabby small culvert bridge.
