doomsday exile

In Niste Harbor, people come and go, and the noise is abnormal.

This is a deep-water port formed by land reclamation.

With the sea water as the dividing line, there are various modern buildings on one side, and the ancient fishing port scenery of Scandinavia on the other.

It is said that the construction of this port aroused strong opposition from the locals, but the Earth Federation Headquarters needed a port to support the ground construction and the construction of a secret space station. Finally, an agreement was reached to build an industrial park in a wasteland high area to reduce Neste. The daily throughput of the port, as a safe haven for ships, has both transit and supply functions.

The freighter "Anping" from Huaxia arrived at the headquarters of the Earth Federation three days ago, and then turned around and came to Niste Port for rest.

There is a large ship repair shop in Niste Port, and there is also a bar street that the crew loves very much.

This place is like a world exposition. Walking on the road, you can hear the languages ​​of five or six countries at random, and you can find people with three skin colors at a glance.

In addition to bars, there are also hotels, fast food restaurants, hairdressers, and high-end bathing clubs that include all services.

Of course, Lu Di doesn't need baths or anything.

He was visiting a row of shops on the outskirts of the baths.

The streets here are neater, and the signboards are neater and brighter, without those ambiguous and messy things.

In fact, this is the place where the crew buys souvenirs. There are only a few luxury stores, and the others are stores selling special products from various countries. The Dongying fan store is next to the Brazilian Carnival clothing store, and the Venetian masks are sold across the street.

Lu Di was standing in front of the window of a Viking-themed store, and the clerk was selling a vulgar-looking goddess statue pendant. It is said that it is a certain sea god or Valkyrie in Norse legends, and has been a blessing since ancient times. Boarding sailors.

These protective charms and pendants seem to be sold in all stores, but the names are different.

Lu Di walked all the way, and has heard more than [-] kinds of rhetoric, and myths from various countries have appeared in turn.

Among them, the stores opened by Chinese people are full of statues of Mazu, the stores are very large, and the business is also very good.

Lu Di is not interested in these beliefs, he likes those exquisite decorations. There are two beautiful ships in bottles in the window of this Viking-style shop, a three-masted wooden boat with white sails, and a pulley made of blackened cotton thread. cables, and decks assembled piece by piece.

If you look closely, you can even spot cannons and delicate rudders.

It is completely different from the plastic products on domestic websites. It is like a real ship scaled down in equal proportions. Every piece can be disassembled and it is lifelike.

Lu Di was looking for the captain's cabin along the hull, when a voice came from his ear: "You like this? You're almost lying on the window."

"I can't afford it even if I like it, you look at the price."

Lu Di was familiar with this voice, and he said it without looking back.

There is only one shadow on the window, Zhu Zhu.

His bald forehead, as well as the lens of the SLR camera hanging around his neck, reflected in the sun.

The person who spoke was of course not Zhu Zhu, but the camera.

The camera lens reflected the product label in the window, with four zeros before the decimal point, and the unit was still euros.

Yan Long: "..."

I also want to know that the price of this kind of store shows that there is a lot of moisture.

"Hey, it's negotiable." Zhu Zhu said with a smile, "Although this thing is exquisite, it's not particularly top-notch, and it's even less likely to be a master craftsman. Look at me."

Lu Di looked at Zhu Zhu dressed as a tourist with a typical Asian face, and felt that he was not good.

As we all know, Chinese tourists are the most willing to spend money, and they are also willing to buy luxury goods. They almost stick the word "fat sheep" on their foreheads. How can they bargain?

"It's okay, I'll take a look."

Lu Di wanted to stop him, but Zhu Zhu had already opened the door and entered the shop.

Lu Di is an invisible ghost, Zhu Zhu can still talk to him without hindrance when no one is around, if he does this in front of outsiders, he must be regarded as crazy, Lu Di can't continue to speak, he can only watch Follow Zhu Zhuyi to perform.

Just as Lu Di guessed at first, although the clerk was enthusiastic about Zhu Zhu, a Chinese face, he did not give up on the price, and there was a hint of contempt in his eyes.

Zhu Zhu ran the train with his mouth full. At first he said that he was a tourist group, and then he said that he was doing new media, and he actually took out his mobile phone to show someone a page.

The clerk doesn't know Chinese either, but can only understand the interactive numbers on the social page, and there are pictures one after another, all of which are small objects with ethnic customs.

Then Zhu Zhu pointed to the window and asked for the name of the craftsman who made the ship in a bottle, saying that he would visit there.

The other party immediately became vigilant, shook his head repeatedly, and wanted to drive people away, and then Zhu Zhu said something, and took out the certificates issued by the Earth Federation to the entourage of the diplomatic corps.This kind of certificate is not only a proof of identity, but also offers discounts for spending in various places in Niste Port.

In any case, this is not an ordinary tourist, it is impossible to hurry up, and it is not easy to refuse the other party's request.

The clerk's expression turned ugly, and he could only call out the boss.

Zhu Zhu took a close-up shot of the two ships in a bottle, and posted on his social page in front of the boss, including the location of the store.

Five minutes later, Zhu Zhu walked out of the store with a smile on his face, holding two gift boxes with anti-collision packaging.

"Two eight hundred euros are normal prices for purely handmade products. You can't let them earn any money, then you will turn your face."

Lu Di: "..."

So this is Professor Xia's assistant, or an internet celebrity blogger?

"It's used to cover up my identity. No matter what I post on this account, it will keep thousands of likes within a minute. The program written by our quantum computer is a troll, and everyone who has used it agrees."

Zhu Zhu took out his mobile phone and deleted the content he just posted.

"Even this account and its content are randomly generated, and it was assigned before going abroad to prevent any accidents. Now that we have separated from the diplomatic corps, this account is useless and will be deleted when we return home. Just let it work its way out."

Zhu Zhu couldn't see Lu Di's expression, but could only hear the voice.

"But……"

Lu Di is very embarrassed, he has no money!

Lu Yun's money is not his money, even if he could use it before, he can't now.

"How much is the salary of the special executive team?" Lu Di tried to keep his voice steady.

"puff."

Zhu Zhu laughed loudly, "Why do you want to pay? Would you buy something without your consent and ask you to pay?"

Lu Di thought to himself, then we are not friendly enough to give away more than 6000 yuan!

"Yan Long sent you."

"Yan Long?"

Lu Di looked down at the camera in surprise.

The camera is silent.

"Don't worry, Yan Long's salary is affordable, anyway, he has nothing to spend money on." Zhu Zhu said with a smile.

Lu Di didn't speak, he thought about when he could buy something to send back.

"Okay, thanks, but I still want to know if I get paid? About how much?"

"This requires you to go back and talk to Team Yuan, and even Professor Xia and Mr. Zheng."

Zhu Zhu shrugged, but he was amazed in his heart.

Although it was Yan Long's suggestion to come out today, everyone knows that Yan Long has no interest in customs and customs, and the person who really wants to go out for a stroll is Lu Di.

It's just that it's inconvenient for Lu Di to bring it up, he's still preparing it temporarily!

——Take a walk around Nist Port, use the dual detection of biological AI and ghosts to see if there are any abnormalities here, which is also considered work.

Although a bit selfish, Lu Di is young and has not been subject to any restrictions before, so it is not a special requirement to want to go shopping.

After these two missions, Yuan Zhongxia could also see that Lu Di was a smart person who was good at hiding his identity. He had nothing to worry about, so he readily agreed.

"Go to the bar? Over there is one of the landmarks of Nist Port, the 'Mermaid' bar, which is relatively 'clean', without messy things, and there are many people, it is a check-in point for tourists from all over the world!"

Zhu Zhu said excitedly, "It's not convenient for you to show your appearance on the street. When you get to the booth of the bar, with the dark lights, no one can tell whether the person sitting next to you is a ghost or a ghost."

"Cough." Yan Long didn't like the metaphor of Zhu Zhu very much.

Lu Di himself didn't care. Speaking of which, he had never been to a bar, let alone a foreign country.

"Is there a show? Rock? Piano?"

"I have them all, but the signboard is this...Look, it's quite a big ocean tank, about twenty meters long and seven or eight meters high...It's the kind of 'mermaid' performance that is common in aquariums." Zhu Zhu took out his phone and flipped Show the video to Lu Di.

Because of the influence of various spotlights, the video is not clear, but you can see a lot of marine life in the tank, dragging the rubber fish tail, and the actress wearing a swimsuit on the upper body swimming above the coral seaweed.

"Forget it, is there a boxing ring, or a bar for wrestling?"

"..."

Zhu Zhu was a little taken aback. He knew that Lu Di was 19 years old, and he seemed to be interested in novelty and exquisite things before. Why did he seem to prefer barbaric styles?

Yan Long reminded in a low voice: "There are a lot of people going to those places, maybe you can find something."

"You're right."

Zhu Zhu said with difficulty that he really didn't think that Lu Di came out to perform a mission, he just wanted to go shopping and have fun!

As a result, Lu Di gave him an unexpected answer.

"The more peaceful the mood, the harder it is to distinguish the differences in these brain waves. There is no investigative value for people who are sleeping and people who are in a daze... If it is a place like a boxing ring or a casino, to me, it is like going to the The color-coded picture looks exceptionally clear.”

Lu Di stretched his waist, and said in a relaxed tone, "Although I didn't get the salary, but I received the gift, it seems unreasonable not to make a serious effort?"

"Then the salary is really not low, more than 6000 yuan a day!" Zhu Zhu clicked his tongue exaggeratedly.

The camera swung around and gave him a flash, motioning for him to shut up.

At this time, there was a huge explosion in the distance, followed by screams, and the ground could be felt trembling from such a distance.

Tourists on the street looked at each other, then panicked and hid in places they thought were safe.

"It's the movement from 'Mermaid Bar'." Zhu Zhu's expression changed, "It sounds like a terrorist attack."

***

Lu Di drifted past the crowd running around, passed through the wall and saw a black man who was clearly drugged and mentally disturbed, dragging an actress performing a mermaid show, gesticulating with a weapon in his hand, frantically Yelling: "Meteorites are real! Humanity is about to be destroyed, and everything is about to end! Let's go together like this!"

A few people next to them also took weapons and fired at the crowd.

Although the marksmanship is similar to that of Lu Di, but there are too many people in the bar, so you can hit the shot without aiming.

The location of the explosion was in the parking lot. A lot of things in the bar were shattered, the chandelier also fell down, and glass shards were everywhere.

There was a crack in the fish tank in the middle, and the water flowed out along the crack, making the scene even more chaotic.

Lu Di didn't wear gloves, but he didn't need to work hard to deal with drug addicts.

"what!"

A man holding a weapon suddenly held his head and bumped into the black man who was holding the actress hostage.

Immediately afterwards, the black man also wailed incoherently, and the bullets in the gun hit the ceiling.

The actress, who was dragging her rubber fishtail and was inconvenient to escape, took the opportunity to sneak into the gap of the booth next to her.

The Federal Secret Service was faster than Lu Di imagined. Lu Di was still thinking about how to control the rest of the lunatics, when he saw a team of people wearing bulletproof vests and helmets rushing in.

Needless to say, the fate of these drug addicts was either shot dead on the spot or knocked to the ground.

Lu Di floated out and found Zhu Zhu who was standing in the crowd in the distance, and stood beside him looking at the smoky parking lot and bar.

"This kind of thing... a lot recently?"

Lu Di thought of the tourists he saw in the bar, some of them were dead, some were shot and wounded, and there were still victims of trampling and shoving lying on the ground. These were originally people who came to shop like him.

"This is the first time Port Nest has appeared, but there are many other places." Yan Long said in a low voice.

A lot of people just need an excuse to let them go crazy unscrupulously, they may not be members of "Apocalypse".

"Because the meteorite is real, the situation is more difficult to control. Now that the meteorite is getting closer, it is easier to observe ... the websites of certain countries have boiled over, and this confusion will continue to happen all over the world, and once Bigger than ever."

Except for China, arms control in other countries is very loose, and social conflicts are more prominent.

And if you want to make a terrorist attack, sometimes you don't need a weapon at all, a knife, a few cars rushing into the crowd, can have the same terrible effect.

The three of them were on the street, watching silently as the Federal Secret Service pulled corpses out of bars, as well as ambulances transporting the wounded.

The relaxed atmosphere before was gone.
