Law Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 166 Adapted Based on Real Events
Ten minutes later, Song Lan's dream of the inn hotel "appearing dilapidated on the surface, but inside it is super five-star hotel-level luxurious decoration" was shattered.

The owner of this hotel is a real person, at least in terms of decoration, he has done the same.

In 2166, this has to be regarded as a miracle, because it is hard to imagine that in this era of rapid technological development, you can still find a place with a decoration style that resembles a medieval town hotel.

The first floor of the hotel is a place for travelers to rest. There are nutritional injections, water, and some juices squeezed from local vegetation. The second and third floors of the hotel are single rooms for guests to stay overnight. There are no TVs, air conditioners and other equipment. In extremely large areas, people can sweat profusely at noon, and can make people shiver with cold at night.

The guests sitting on the first floor vividly reflected the simple folk customs of the town - guns were placed on almost every table, and they did not forget to warn others with fierce eyes during the drinking break.

Lu Xiang booked a room with the boss, and the two carried their luggage upstairs. After a little tidying up, she said, "For guests staying in the hotel, the sand bath is free. Come on, let's experience it."

"Why do I think you are familiar with this place?"

Coming to this barren town, Lu Xiang did not show any discomfort, but quickly entered the state of tourism.

"I went to a similar place during the graduation assessment before."

However, they had a task at the time, and they couldn't calm down and enjoy the local customs.

During the conversation, the two went downstairs and came to the place where Lu Xiang said the sand bath.

What came into view were heads emerging from the sand like radishes.

These heads seem to be people who often travel on the trade line. Their skin is tanned, and they don't look very old, but their faces are already covered with wrinkles.

The parts other than their heads were buried in the sand, and most of them showed expressions of enjoyment under the sun.

The sand bath area is surrounded by the boss. In fact, a simple wooden fence is used to enclose a sandy area, and then some hard stones and other debris are cleaned out.

But, Song Lan didn't see why this could be called a local characteristic project at all.

Isn't this just when a group of people went to the beach to play, they were buried in the sand as a prank?

"Are you sure this works?"

"Try it and you'll know. Come on, take off your shirt and pants, and lie down over there."

Lu Xiang chose a vacant seat for Song Lan, and not many people came to experience the sand bath, so there was no crowding.

Song Lan was skeptical, but he still comforted himself, this is also the experience of traveling.

Three minutes later, for the first time in his life, he experienced the feeling of being pranked.

In 2020, he belongs to the type who goes to the beach with his classmates to conduct social investigations, and no one would think of playing a prank on him.

His body was buried in the sand, exacerbating the extreme heat of the environment, which made him wonder how the people next to him survived the sun for so long without heatstroke.

After completely burying Song Lan's body in the sand, Lu Xiang wiped the sweat from his forehead with a sense of accomplishment, and said, "This area has been short of water for a long time, and bathing is a luxury for the locals. , so they replaced traditional showers with sand baths. It is said that this method has many benefits for the human body. The trace elements contained in mineral sand have a prominent effect on the treatment of rheumatic diseases, and can effectively treat arthritis and chronic waist and leg pain. , thanks to this, the locals rarely suffer from such diseases."

Lu Xiang sat cross-legged behind Song Lan's head, and put his fingers on his temples to help him gently massage, "Didn't you always say that your stomach hurts before? Try sand bathing more, maybe there will be unexpected effects .”

Can that be the same?

Song Lan felt it necessary to emphasize that his stomachache could be controlled intelligently.

It usually doesn't hurt when I'm not working.

Having said that, he still closed his eyes and quietly enjoyed the head massage service Lu Xiang provided him.

At this moment, he understood what it means to have fun while suffering.

Although it is painful to be buried in the scorching sand, he is very happy to enjoy the massage service from his girlfriend.

Perhaps it is this strong contrast that sets off this happiness even more strongly.

Especially when he looked at the people next door, everyone was like "radishes" emerging from the sand, only he could enjoy the massage service, and the others could only stare at him.

"By the way, speaking of sand baths, I have seen some interesting stories."

Lu Xiang completely ignored the envious eyes of other "radishes", and did not realize that his actions were destroying the environment of the radish pit in the sand, and continued, "It is said that there used to be an extremely evil criminal group that controlled In this area, the business he handles includes arms, prosthetic body trading, and human trafficking. He uses the resources he obtained through plundering and illegal transactions to continuously grow his power, and finally firmly controls the entire border trade line. into his own hands.

"One of his hobbies is sand bathing. Whenever he arrives at a place, he will bury his body in the sand at noon when the sun is at its strongest, because he thinks it can temper his will and temper his body. ..."

Feeling Lu Xiang's just right hand strength and soft narration, Song Lan closed his eyes, feeling sleepy.

As for the direction of the story, he can already guess a thing or two.

There have been many similar plots in the movies he has seen.

A criminal who was so bad at the beginning of the movie, because of a humble hobby, he met some ordinary people, and was finally moved by those people, put down the butcher knife, and devoted himself to the Buddha from then on.

In the story Lu Xiang told, he guessed that maybe the criminal boss met the boss's daughter when he was taking a sand bath alone, and the boss's daughter didn't fear and hate him like other people in the town , but instead...

"Later, during an internal rebellion, the leader of the crime syndicate was blown in the head by a bullet because he was taking a sand bath and couldn't get out of his body for a while."

Lu Xiang's tone was still soft, her right hand stopped, and she pointed to a place where Song Lan was facing, "His brains should have splashed there at that time."

Your story is obviously too realistic!

Song Lan's eyes were wide open, and the drowsiness brought about by the calmness and leisure was gone.

"director."

"Ok?"

"Do you have any misconceptions about 'interesting'?"

At least for Song Lan, it wasn't really funny when someone got his head blown off within three meters of him.

"I still think it's funny."

Lu Xiang said, "The person who planned the rebellion at the time was Chai Ke. He indeed snatched the boss's territory through rebellion, and has since ascended to the throne of the leader of the criminal group. Therefore, this should be based on real events."

The lingering Chai Ke appeared again.

In some unexpected places, this old friend always shows up in unexpected ways.

Song Lan felt that this buddy's name could already be written in the history books of the Seventeenth District and the border trade line.

"director."

Song Lan said in a firm tone, "I think we should suggest to the next mayor to vigorously develop these small towns on the trade line."

After the actual experience, he understood a truth.

Sand baths, in 2166, are a dangerous and backward form of relaxation.
