space broker

Chapter 22 Night Battle

There is a direct pipeline express train from Tangdi Club to Meishan. Along the way, Chen Zaoying has a lively atmosphere and chatters non-stop. Anton doesn't need to pretend to be forceful after leaving the wolf's den, so the two get along very happily.Others only think of them as a young couple, the boy is cool and the girl is cute, and occasionally the cool guy is amused by the girl and smiles, which makes everyone around him feel sweet.

However, the situation is not as harmonious as passers-by see.

Although Chen Zaoying was rescued by Anton once, the two officially met today.Speaking of which, the only intersection between the two before was Chunyang Xili's "Heroes Save the Beauty", and this topic happened to be something that Chen Zaoying couldn't get enough of.

She has too many thanks to express, and there are many girls' little thoughts mixed in to give hints to the other party, but how did she know that this matter is the last thing Anton wants to talk about, every time she thanks will cause him invisible pressure.

The more indifferent Anton was, the less he cared about her, the more anxious he became.However, everything that can be said has been said, especially how Anton killed the mutant dog with one punch and two kicks. She has praised it three times in different ways.

And he is still indifferent.

The girl was too young and didn't know how to deal with this situation at all. The only thing in her mind was "I can't be cold, I have to say something else", and suddenly remembered that there was a "big event" behind this incident, so I couldn't help but feel sorry for her. Anton said: "Did you know? The reason why the commander led the team to rescue me that day was because they were laying out in Chunyangxili at that time!"

Anton really responded, "Layout?"

"Yeah!" Chen Zaoying's eyes were bright, flashing a mischievous light about to reveal a secret, she leaned a little closer and whispered, "Actually, that day, the embassy group was going to arrest the B space broker, and when they got the news, there would be someone Come and steal."

An Dong turned his head violently, causing Chen Zaoying to fall backwards in fright, and immediately regretted it, he almost had a bobo!

"Be careful." Anton reached out and grabbed Chen Zaoying's waist, "And then? Did you catch it?"

Chen Zaoying felt a big hand on her waist, and half of her soul flew away, "No. It's all my fault, but a bet with my classmates interfered with their actions that day. The commander didn't say anything, but my cousin scolded me for a long time, Said that they were only a minute or two away from catching the broker, but let him slip away. My cousin said that the broker is very powerful. He can not only pass through the twisted space but also have the power to close the passage. It is comparable to the adjutant of our embassy. Yes, maybe not worse than the ambassador."

Anton's cheekbones almost flew into the sky.

Fuck, how can I be a little proud for no reason?

Chen Zaoying thought he was laughing at her, so she couldn't help lowering her head, "Do you think I'm stupid?"

Anton raised his eyebrows, "I heard from my friends that there is a kind of girl in space B called green tea girl. One of their signature tricks is to show stupidity to boys, and they especially like to say 'do you think I'm stupid'."

Chen Zaoying's face turned pale.

"But," Anton patted her on the head, "I think you're cute when you say that."

People's green tea girl is pretending to be stupid while pretending to be smart, girl, you are real, who is cute if you are not cute?

A station announcement sounded from the carriage: "Meishan Station is here, please get off at Meishan Station if you have passengers."

Maybe it was frightened by Anton's previous sentence that Meishan is haunted. Chen Zaoying grabbed Anton's arm and was nervous when she got out of the car, "Why is it so dark here!"

This time Anton didn't pull away, "Didn't you say that there is no interference from light sources here? Haven't you been here?"

"Yes." Chen Zaoying nodded obediently, "But with you here, I'm not afraid."

"Then let's go up the mountain."

On the viaduct of the Pipeline Express, Anton had already surveyed the legendary Great Rift Valley.In terms of geographical location, this great rift valley is like being cut by a giant from the fourth ring to the second ring, and it is as good as being blocked by Meishan in front of the old palace.

Meishan is not high but has rich vegetation. There are many trails up the mountain, some are gentler, and some are steeper.An Dong and Chen Zaoying chose the trail with a wide view, but Meishan belongs to the old city here, sparsely populated and abandoned for many years, and the brick cracks of the trail are full of weeds.

"Wow~ look, it's so beautiful!" Chen Zaoying sighed while pointing to the Great Rift Valley when she climbed halfway up the mountain.

In the Great Rift Valley, groups of shimmering mist are like paper lanterns floating in the air, some are oblong, some are oblate, and some are like irregular starfish.

Chen Zaoying pointed to a big one named An Dong, "Does that look like an open clam shell with a pearl in it?"

"What is this?" Anton found that these clusters of light seemed to be stationary at first glance, but upon careful observation, he could tell that they were blooming slowly, but the speed was extremely slow, there were few reference objects in the dark night, and the eyesight was poor. Can't find it at all.

Chen Zaoying was a little surprised that he didn't know what it was, but after thinking about it, Zimenghua only existed in the Great Rift Valley, and this place was desolate and few people came here, so she said: "That's the pollen of Zimenghua, every time I arrive At night, Zimeng flowers will spray pollen before blooming, but the gravity in the Great Rift Valley is abnormal, and these pollen will not float out, so don’t worry.”

Anton remembered that Ma Krypton said that Zimenghua in the Great Rift Valley was extremely hallucinogenic, but not fatal.As soon as his eyes moved, he knew how to get rid of Chen Zaoying.

Just as he was about to trick her into "exploring", Anton suddenly saw a few black shadows passing by the edge of the canyon.

"Don't move!" Anton held Chen Zaoying, only to find that she was staring stiffly at the canyon below.He forgot that this little girl could see through the broker's disguise, and her visual ability was probably much stronger than his.

"Did you see it too?" Chen Zaoying's voice trembled, "Is that, is that a ghost?"

Anton couldn't help feeling amused.What is there to be afraid of?What is really scary is people.

"Let's go, let's go up the mountain!" Pulling Chen Zaoying back, she ran to the gazebo on the top of the mountain.

Occupy a commanding height first.If it's a wild broker, naturally they won't catch up. If it's other cats and dogs, Anton will let them see what it means to be a man in charge today.

In fact, Anton especially hoped that the black shadows below were brokers running wild, so as to save a trouble.Ever since he entered the business, as long as he came here, he didn't do anything else to fight. No wonder the girl told him repeatedly before that we brokers should keep a low profile, don't cause trouble if you can, and put work first.But the problem is, why does he want to keep a low profile and someone comes to his door?

Just like now, when he dragged Chen Zaoying up and ran up, those black shadows chased up, hearing the sound of footsteps and running quite fast.

As soon as Anton reached the top of the mountain, he pushed Chen Zaoying into the gazebo, "Stay there and don't come out." Turning around, he kicked a big branch from the nearby pine tree and swung the first black shadow away with his backhand.

Before he had time to see if he had hit a home run, the second shadow arrived.

Anton's short body and long legs swept him over, grabbed his neck and dragged him over, and said between his teeth: "Blossoms come in spring." What if it's his own?

His reply was a punch to the head.

Not one of us, well, then lift it up and throw it away.

"Ah~~~" In the sound of the second black shadow falling, Anton saw No. 345 coming together.

"Li Zan!" Chen Zaoying screamed.

Anton turned around.

Chen Zaoying: "You have to be careful!"

Anton: ...

The sound of piercing the sky came from behind, so fast that Anton had no time to react.boom!There was a muffled sound, and the back of the head was hit with a sap.

Usually this stick might not be able to do anything to him, but now his eyes are darkened, and the consequences of two consecutive crossings finally occurred.

But he couldn't get dizzy now, he gritted his teeth and forced himself to wake up, and suffered several more blows during the scuffle.There are more and more black shadows, and Anton is also approaching the end of his battle. He was thinking that he might have to confess here today. Fortunately, there is no such thing as a path, and a slender figure suddenly joined the battle. The speed of the attack may be faster than Anton's full strength. There is still time.

Anton's spirit lifted, he breathed a sigh of relief and teamed up with the new force, and soon gained the upper hand.The black shadows saw that the situation was not good, one of them made a gesture, and everyone scattered and fled.

Anton took a few steps back to support the gazebo pillars to catch his breath, but he heard the newcomer ask, "Where is Chen Zaoying?"

The girl was gone!

"Why don't you take care of it?" The newcomer asked.

Anton was annoyed: "Then what are you doing?"

The newcomer stopped talking, waited and watched for a while, and chased down the mountain until he reached the edge of the Great Rift Valley, and jumped without hesitation.

The Great Rift Valley is [-] meters deep, but its gravity is abnormal.

Anton fell down flickeringly, and stepped on the top of the newcomer's head with his foot, "Have you brought a guy?"

The newcomer was slightly surprised, "Why are you following?"

"What the hell, Chen Zaoying came out with me, if something happens to her, will her relatives from the embassy group kill me?"

The newcomer's face was slightly cold, but he still threw Anton a stick.

The two finally reached the bottom of the valley. Unexpectedly, the bottom of the seemingly ferocious Grand Canyon was unexpectedly flat.The light cluster he saw before was suspended above their heads. With the faint light, Anton saw that the bottom of the valley was covered with dust and gravel, and there was still a thin layer of mist on the ground.

Anton saw a small white flower in the mist.

The newcomer handed him a small bottle, "Drink it, it's for defense against Zimeng flower poison."

Seeing that he only had this bottle in his hand, Anton only drank half of it and handed the remaining half back.

The man glanced at him, raised his head and drank the rest, then winked at Anton.

Ordinarily, it is almost impossible for strangers who don't know each other to have a heart-to-heart connection just by looking at each other, but Anton understood the meaning of the other party at once, and tacitly moved forward with him, one left and one right.

The two walked lightly and silently, wading through the mist at the bottom of the pit, like two dangerous ghosts, slowly but firmly approaching the target.

Anton smelled a faint, pleasant fragrance.Sweeping his eyes down, he didn't know when there was a sea of ​​flowers under his feet, and petite and fragile white flowers swayed slowly with their movements.

The newcomer gestured.Anton and him flashed into a shadow at the same time, and walked quietly against the valley wall.After a while, they saw Chen Zaoying's figure lying in the sea of ​​flowers.

Anton looked at the newcomer: Could there be fraud?

The newcomer looks back: I will go first, and you will be the last.

Anton nodded slightly, and the two jumped out of the shadows one after the other.

The newcomer stepped forward and turned over Chen Zaoying, patted her face and called her name twice. Chen Zaoying woke up leisurely, and when she saw someone coming, she screamed: "Commander! I was almost beaten by bad guys!" Take it away!" Then he rolled his eyes and passed out again.

commander! ! !

Anton, who was guarding the rear, was in a bad mood.

A few minutes later, the three of them returned to the flat ground. Anton looked at Hulala in a white uniform and wanted to scold her very much.

Chen Zaoying also gained a lot of wisdom, last time in Chunyang Xili, she only knew how to run away, but this time when she encountered danger, she remembered to use her ring to call for help.

Someone put a blanket over Anton's body, and a medical soldier held something like a hand-held fan without blades to check the big bag on the back of his head.

Anton sat on a rock shaking his legs.There must be something wrong with the Great Rift Valley. Going down is like losing half of your life. Now he is very tired, and he is still hungry and sleepy.Maybe it's because of the overdraft before?No matter what, he couldn't run or hit him now, and he just hoped that Lu Jiahua's ring wouldn't be exposed, because the first thing these rescuers did when they came was to swipe their rings to confirm their identity.

After the medical soldier in charge of his inspection finished, he tapped the work system ring on his wrist, and a light screen popped out with the personal data of "Li Zan" on it.The medical soldier flipped through the pages and said, "Your medical insurance does not cover traumatic brain injuries, and you need to pay for it yourself. Is that acceptable?"

The commander standing aside said calmly: "His treatment is under the responsibility of the embassy."

Anton put on an indifferent look, "No, I can take care of my own affairs."

At this time, all the people who held the welcome party in Tangdi also rushed to the scene.Anton saw E's figure in the crowd, and couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, but then he found that after E saw the commander beside him, he dodged and hid far away.

Fuck, does this mean that there is no hope?

E didn't even look this way, pretending to look at the rabbit's tail.

On the other side, Qin Guan got angry as soon as he arrived at the scene, named the names of several people in charge of the area in the embassy group, and yelled that he would imprison them in Xinting Island. Quit the flags and drums.

Anton took the opportunity to throw away the blanket, "Since Chen Zaoying's cousin is here, I'll leave first."

The commander made a move to stop him, Anton raised his eyebrows, "Why?"

The commander asked him calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Anton's heart tightened, and he glanced at E again, hoping for some miracle to happen, but it turned out that it was a coward!

You still have to rely on yourself.

Anton cleared his throat with a cough, turned sideways to block other people's sight and hooked his fingers at the commander, "Chen Zaoying is a good girl, proactive and enthusiastic, but...not my type."

There was a little embarrassment on the commander's calm face, he never thought that it would be involved in such a matter.

Anton looked embarrassed and said: "As a man, it is right to protect a girl when she is in danger, but this does not mean that I am interested in her. I don't want her to be misunderstood by this, so I have another question about today's matter." Please, I hope the commander will not tell her that we went down together, lest she come... again...you understand."

The commander nodded.It was obviously a expressionless face, but Anton could see a hint of concern.

"You've been harassed too, haven't you?"

Look at this buddy, he is in a high position and looks talented, especially his pair of hyacinth eyes, the brilliance is restrained and deep like the sea.

"Are you happy this time?" Fortunately, the two of them turned their backs to the crowd, otherwise, if the ambassadors saw the corners of their commander's lips slightly curled up at this moment, they would have been scared to death.

They had never seen the commander laugh.

Anton bumped his elbow, "Dude, you understand very well."

The commander watched him silently.

Anton immediately put on a serious face, "It's okay, I'll go first, goodbye."

Seeing Anton's figure disappear into the night, the commander turned around slowly and called Li Zhen, "Check this man, I want all his information, starting from birth."
