Angel Neng looked at Orson and blinked in disbelief.Orson nodded to show that he was not joking.
"Haha, then I'll ask you to cover me then, Orson~"
The energy angel smiled, then snapped into gear, and stepped on the accelerator.
"Ah, speaking of which, my driver's license was confiscated just a few days ago. If I'm caught by the Guards Bureau, I'll have to rely on my ability~"
"...Is there still time for me to jump off the car?"
"Of course it's late!"
"Speaking of which, what's the situation in the slums of Longmen? Before I arrived in this city, I heard that Longmen is one of the few city-states that doesn't reject the infected. Do those infected live in the slums?"
On the way to the task with Neng Angel, Orson asked curiously about the situation of the Longmen slum.
Although in his "memory", the slums are the most important stage in the whole plot, just like the city of Longmen, Orson does not have a more specific impression.
"Well, although it is said that the infected are not excluded, Longmen will not allow these people to enter the 'main city' at will - Longmen is divided into 27 blocks, and areas 1-20 are similar to our current situation. There is no limit to being able to live a normal life, and Districts 21-27 are what people often call slums."
Neng Angel turned the steering wheel while explaining, and the two soon came to an area with a less "modern" style of painting.
At this time, in front of the two of them was a towering wall with a height of three meters. The wall continued to spread to the left and right sides, and even extended to the end of the field of vision.
"This wall was built in recent years. The purpose is to further separate the existence of the slums from the dragon gate. Of course, as long as you have some 'access' or permits, it is not particularly difficult to enter and exit the slums. "
"The fence is not too high, and there are no rigid protective measures, so it is more of a division in nature."
Orson glanced at the wall. It was obvious that the wall couldn't even stop the junior high school students who sneaked off to the Internet bar after school. Its function was more as a "restraint" or "warning", telling everyone that there was a gap between the slums and the dragon gate. of isolation.
"Who knows, everyone will find that Longmen's control over the slums has become more and more strict recently, and many people even spread rumors that Wei Yanwu has actually been looking for opportunities to clear the slums."
The Angel shrugged and drove the car towards a checkpoint-like facility built within the walls.
On one side, the angels chatted with the staff at the checkpoint, while Orson on the other side stared at the windshield in front of him in thought.
[Cleaning up the slums] Maybe it is true. If my memory is not wrong, Wei Yanwu has been using the integration movement and Rhodes Island throughout the plot, trying to use the hands of others to clean up the existence of the slums.
It seems that his actions in Casimir and Chernobog did not change the old dragon's mind. Perhaps this trip to the Dragon Gate will not be as easy as he thought at first.
"It's been a slum from here on out."
The angel who had already completed the formalities poked Orson's cheek, and the latter recovered from his contemplation.
"Ugh...a completely different style from Longmen."
Orson was shocked by the picture of the "slums" in front of him. It was completely different from Kasimir in Checheng. The slums displayed in front of him at this time did not have any sense of "high technology". Apartments are stacked and backlogged, and high-rise buildings with illegal extensions can be seen everywhere.
The entire slum is like a huge breathing net, a dilapidated labyrinth with its own rules.
Everything he saw was completely different from Longmen. Orson could not see elites in suits and leather shoes here, he could not see luxury and expensive brands, and even the car driven by Neng Angel was extremely rare.
Instead, wandering the chaotic streets are a group of residents who have nothing in common in terms of race, height, and gender, and the only thing that can be called "common" is the origin stone crystals that are uniformly exposed on their bodies, and Those pair of eyes that were obscured by dust and haze.
"It's best not to drive from here on."
The angel drove the vehicle into a garage near the checkpoint, signaling Orson to use it from here.
"Because it's more conspicuous?"
"And it's easy to drive and find that even the wheels have been stolen-the most important thing is that there are very few roads here that can be opened to traffic."
Neng Angel responded with a black face. Seeing her like this, Orson didn't ask how the wheel was stolen.
"So where are we going next... well, be careful."
"No, sorry!"
When Orson was asking Neng Angel's next move, a young girl from the Pelo tribe suddenly rushed towards Orson.
Orson dodged gently before the girl hit him, and held the little girl with his hands by the way.
"Are you OK?"
"It's okay, thank you big brother, then I'll go first!"
The little girl nodded to Orson, and then prepared to leave here.
"Wait a minute, you got something on yourself?"
Before the little girl left, Angel Neng held her shoulder and said with a smile.
"Uh, what, what?"
The little girl who was stopped was stunned for a moment, and then asked Neng Angel with a guilty conscience.
"Of course - this wallet!"
"Wow!"
No Angel took out a wallet from the little girl's pocket, and the moment he saw the wallet, Orson subconsciously touched his own pocket.
"It's still too young to play this set in front of me, hum. Go back and practice for a few more years, little one."
Angel Neng smiled and knocked on the little girl's head, indicating that the other party's petty theft skills are not in place.
"Damn it...you look like a fool, but your girlfriend is so shrewd, let's go!"
The little girl who was caught stealing pouted in displeasure, and then went into a small alley.
"Female, girlfriend—"
Angel Neng, who originally had an expression of ease, immediately became a little flustered after hearing the words that the little girl complained inadvertently before she left.
"Thank you so much, Angel! I almost lost my wallet twice! It seems that my frequency detection ability can't distinguish more subtle and deceptive movements."
Orson didn't hear the little girl's words, he happily approached Neng Angel and tried to get his wallet back, and put his palm on Neng Angel's shoulder without thinking too much.
"Wow!?"
But for the somewhat flustered Angel, Orson's sudden approach still shocked her, and she threw out the wallet she had just brought back almost like a conditioned reflex.
"Ah, my wallet—"
Orson watched the wallet draw a parabola in mid-air, and then plunged into the sewer manhole cover with precision.
"..." "..."
"I'm sorry Orson, I really didn't do it on purpose!! I will compensate for whatever money is in it! But thinking about it, I don't seem to have a penny on hand now. I spent all my salary last month to buy something that looks cool. I can reach Angel Gundam... In short, you let me do anything, except, except, except for a girlfriend or something..."
Neng Angel is directly a tiger landing on the ground, and at the same time said something that is not good in various senses.
When it came to the end, Nyx lowered his head even further to prevent Orson from noticing his strange expression.
"You don't have to do that, Angel...there isn't much money in the wallet, and if it wasn't for you, the wallet would have already been stolen, and the results are pretty much the same."
"Really! That would be great!"
Hearing that Orson didn't seem to be angry, Angel Neng immediately raised his head and looked at Orson gratefully.
——I always feel that this kind of debt-debting personality should belong to me...?
Orson looked at the angel and murmured in his heart.
----------
After just arriving in the slums and some episodes happened, the two continued their mission.
Through the location provided by the angel's information, the two walked through the intricate slums to the area where the "target" was hidden.
The environment in the slums really made Orson a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, there was a capable angel to guide the way so that he wouldn't get stuck in it and couldn't get out.
"Well, there are three people inside."
After arriving at the target, Orson checked the frequency of the room, and after confirming that the number of targets matched the number, he nodded with Angel.
"BOOOM!!"
A loud bang came from outside the gate, and with the heat wave and impact of the explosion, Angel and Orson rushed into the room together.
"Don't move, Penguin Logistics' direct express delivery, please accept it!"
Can Angel used special BB bullets to shoot at the few people in the room who wanted to escape, while Orson avoided the firepower net of Can Angel, rushed to the enemy and knocked down a few suspects.
"Wait for Orson, there are two people here that don't match the description of the order—what's going on?"
Neng Angel, who controlled the three of them, found that two of them were not on the right number, and immediately asked the person on the list.
"Haha! I'm not going to tell you whoa whoa whoa!?? I say I say!"
The controlled man hadn't been hardened for 3 seconds before he was turned on the overload mode by the energy angel, and directly surrendered and confessed through the cruel torture of shooting a cow with a BB ball.
"Hmm... so the other two escaped separately? Orson, I will leave one of them to you, I will send you the information, and I will find the other one!"
After understanding the situation, Neng Angel looked at Orson, who also nodded to indicate that there was no problem.
After tying up the unlucky ones they caught and throwing them into the trash can in the alley, the two began to split up.
Because of the familiarity of the terrain, Neng Angel quickly found the second target. This time, the other party failed to protect his bull, and the plastic BB egg directly beat him unconscious.
"It's done—it turns out it's not the mafia this time, it's just a fugitive gangster who robbed a convenience store."
After tying up male guest No. [-] and throwing it into the trash can, Neng Angel decided whether to reconcile with Orson.
But before she could act, panicked screams and riots suddenly erupted not far away.
"...?"
The angel of energy looked over the commotion and found thick black smoke coming out of a house, followed by an orange-red fire that began to spread and rise.
"Which person didn't turn off the fire when cooking?"
Can Angel didn't plan to join in the fun, but before she left, the corner of her clothes was suddenly pulled by a tiny force.
"Big sister—you are what others call a 'logistics employee', right! Please, please save my sister! She is seriously infected with ore disease, and she hasn't escaped yet!"
Neng Angel discovered that the girl who was asking for help at this time was the little girl who stole Orson's wallet when she arrived in the slum.
The difference from before was that there was no mischievous grimace on the little girl's face at this time, or the excitement of stealing the wallet, but only the clearly visible tear stains and the panic on the verge of collapse.
In the slums, it is extremely normal for children to die in a corner because they can't survive. People don't feel sad about it, they just curse that the dead bodies have become a new source of infection.
For a little girl who was severely infected with Originium disease, it was quite normal for her to die in a fire. It would be better to say that being cremated would even be a good "post-mortem treatment".
No one will save such an infected person, there is no money to be made, and the risks are high.
