Chapter 4 Chapter 3 failed

Of course, apart from this organization, there are also people with rich financial resources in the world—there are so-called "invisible rich people". I spread my hands: "Since this is the case, there is no other way." Tao Qiquan sighed: "Please don't embarrass us—I know that since your name is mentioned in this solicitation notice, you will definitely not let this matter go, and will conduct a thorough investigation." I didn't deny it: "Yes, but so far, I haven't got a clue." Hearing my answer, Tao Qiquan was inexplicably excited: "That's good—as long as you are willing to investigate, there will be results!"

I was a little bit ironic: "Thank you for your support! You have too much confidence in me." Tao Qiquan said: "In short, as soon as you find the person who posted the notice, notify me immediately, it will be regarded as a great help to me." I thought about it and guessed their purpose: "Do you want to contact him and ask him to transfer the life quota he solicited to you?" Tao Qiquan replied very frankly: "That's exactly what I mean." I couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "You really do everything you can, just to live longer!"

The tycoon hurriedly said: "If we can live longer, we will really use any means. But now we are just doing transactions, and the means are justified." Tao Qiquan added: "After discussing and researching, we came to the conclusion that the aspirant bought a lot of life quotas, and he might not be able to use them himself. Most of them are for sale at a good price. Why not buy them from him?" Suddenly, I felt very tired and didn't want to continue the discussion, so I waved my hand: "Okay, I promise you, as soon as I find out the whereabouts of the solicitor, I will notify you immediately."

Tao Qiquan was so happy that he let out cheers, and the rest of the people seemed to be immortal immediately, more than half of them were dancing. Tao Qiquan said again: "Wesley, you should also be excited—this situation is exactly what you often call a 'change in the form of life'. If the lives of people on earth can communicate with each other, it will be an earth-shaking change!" The more I listen to it, the less I like it. Tao Qiquan's "communication of life" sounds good, but in fact it is rich people who use money to buy human lives.But I just can't think of how to refute it—this feeling is definitely uncomfortable, just like swallowing a large lump of fat and stuffing it in my chest, feeling tired and sad, but unable to spit it out.

Just now, my tired feeling was caused by this. My tone was cold: "Yes, if such a situation really happened, it would indeed be an earth-shaking change." That is predictable. Just think about it, if life quotas can be exchanged for money, from the perspective of human greed, the chaos that will be generated, and the various plunders and robberies that will be caused are really chilling-in human behavior that is already ugly enough, The level of ugliness deepened.As a result of the chaos, the beneficiary is of course the owner of the money. Human behavior is now almost entirely dominated by money, and with such changes, I really don't know what will happen.

I didn't want to continue talking, so I reached out my hand to stop the call. When the portrait on the screen disappeared, the voice could no longer be heard, but I still saw Tao Qiquan talking to everyone, and I could recognize him from the shape of his lips. What is he talking about, he is telling everyone: Don’t worry, Wesley means what he says, he will definitely do it── I had no choice but to smile wryly, annoyed in my heart, and wanted to vent all my anger on the person who posted the solicitation notice, but I didn't know who that person was.This situation is like punching the air, the anger has nowhere to go, it is really unpleasant to the extreme.

Xiao Guo saw my displeasure, and he said: "These people are afraid of death, so their psychological state has become very abnormal. It is often said that a person who is about to drown will hold on to a straw—these people want to It's not even the straw, it's the air!" Wen Baoyu took a slightly different view: "It can't be said that there is nothing—air is also a substance, but it's not so easy to grab. At least someone is asking for a life quota." Wen Baoyu was a little out of his head when he spoke. We are familiar with him, so it is easy to understand what he meant. The last sentence he just said meant: since someone is asking for a life quota, it can be deduced that the life quota must be useful.

I waved my hand: "There is no need to say anything now, the first task is to find out the solicitor!" Xiao Guo patted his chest: "Wrap it on me." At that time, not only Xiao Guo was sure, but I also thought it would not be difficult—advertisements were published all over the world, and a big box was placed in every newspaper office. Of course, it should not be difficult to find him. Xiao Guo acted very carefully—not only did he deploy in this city, but he also arranged the same measures in nine other big cities. On the one hand, he sent people to wait. It seemed that it was the person who picked up the big box full of application letters. On the one hand, he also bribed people in the newspaper office to pay close attention to him.

When the one-month deadline was approaching, Xiao Guo's action was even more perfect—he sent a group of tracking experts to study all the routes that could be left after leaving the newspaper office, and sent people to wait in advance on each route. There is an advanced communication system among all people. Such an arrangement can be said to be foolproof.When Xiao Guo reported to me that he had taken such measures, I still laughed at him: "It's too much of a fuss." Xiao Guo said: "Be careful, I am afraid that if I miss this opportunity, the seeker will never show up again, and it will be difficult to find him again."

Xiao Guo's usual style of acting is not exaggerated, but this time it is a bit unusual.He set up a "command center" and asked the Gobi Desert to install a communication system. Three days before the start of the big operation, he forced me to watch.After I saw it, I couldn't help being amazed—there are more than 50 workers in the center, each of whom has a computer system in front of them, and Xiao Guo himself is the commander-in-chief. According to him, this command center has direct connections with ten major cities in the world. Including this city, there are four cities that can also have on-site faxes. That is to say, in those four cities, the tracking team's actions The situation can be clearly seen on the fluorescent screen in the center.

In the remaining six cities, although there is no on-site fax, they also have voice contact, and they can keep abreast of the progress of the operation. Xiao Guo even thought of the part that I didn't think of. He said: "I think the solicitor must have known that this solicitation notice has attracted the attention of the whole world, and it is also expected that someone will want to find him, so he may take action in more than a hundred places at the same time──such , the chances of people finding him will be reduced to the minimum." I praised him: "You are thoughtful. It can be said that you have already laid a net. He must show his original shape." Xiao Guo was very excited: "You will come again when the time comes—the Gobi Desert and Xiaobao will also come. As soon as there is a result, you can go to meet the solicitor immediately to see what kind of heart he has, how much do you want other people's life quota? What's the use?" Until a few seconds before the most important moment, several of us were still full of confidence.Wen Baoyu even said more than once: "This is a three-finger pinching snail—a matter of hand." When I first felt that things might not go as smoothly as we imagined, the other party's actions had already begun. The time was around midnight, and reports came from ten cities with direct connections at the same time: the other party's operation had begun, and someone had taken away the iron box from the newspaper office. In fact, what happened in four of these cities, including our own, can be seen on the screen. Xiao Guo, the commander-in-chief, had long been standing on a table with a laser stick in his hand, commanding everything in a commanding manner. The first people who saw each other on the screen appeared inside the newspaper office in this city——Xiao Guo has great powers, and surveillance equipment was also installed in the newspaper office.However, it is only limited to this city, and in the other three cities, you can only see the situation outside the newspaper office. Since the opponent's men and horses had no special signs, and there were too many people entering and leaving the newspaper office, it was impossible to identify them. It was only after they entered the newspaper office that they could be known to be the target. Therefore, we first recognized the people sent by the solicitors, the three people who carried away the iron box in the city's newspaper office. As soon as I saw those three people going through formalities with the newspaper staff, I felt that things would not go so smoothly. Because at the gates of the newspaper offices in the other three cities, three people who looked similar entered the newspaper office just now. All over the world, the time is different, but in each city, the opponent's troops can be dispatched at the same time, which shows that the opponent's organizational ability is strong.And the other party's actions are so rigorous, whether it is so easy for us to succeed, of course, we have to put a question mark. When I thought of this, Xiao Guo was still very high-spirited, and was shouting: "Look clearly! These three people are the targets." Those three people, no matter in their clothing or appearance, were extremely ordinary. People like this were the most difficult to identify among the crowd, so they were also the safest. What shocked me even more was that in the other three cities, I noticed that the targets of the three-person group who walked into the newspaper office were all the same inconspicuous characters-of course, this was also the result of careful arrangements! It can be seen from this that the other party's actions are unusually sophisticated, and it seems that they are by no means as easy to deal with as we imagined. I wanted to remind Xiao Guo, but I thought that Xiao Guo had already arranged it properly, and it would be difficult to add anything temporarily, so I held back and didn't make a sound. After a while, I saw the three people from the city's newspaper office, two of them were carrying iron boxes, and one opened the way and walked out. Xiao Guo was giving orders: "Attention! The target is about to leave!" At this moment, I asked: "What kind of transportation did these three people use to come here just now, has anyone noticed?" No one answered this question -- which didn't surprise me, because I didn't notice either. While talking, I saw that the three people had left the gate of the newspaper office, and at the same time, outside the gate of the newspaper office in three other cities, there were also a group of three people in each group, one was in front, and the other two were carrying iron boxes. After that, walked out. Reports from the other six cities also came within a time difference of less than 30 seconds: the content was the same: the target had obtained the iron box and left the newspaper office. I can imagine the same action taking place at the same time in over a hundred places around the world. It is not a simple matter to arrange such a uniform operation, and from this point of view, our opponent is by no means unusual, there can be no doubt. Xiao Guo had obviously thought of this, his expression became very serious, and he issued a series of instructions. It can be seen from the screen that the stalkers arranged by Xiao Guo have been dispatched one after another. As I watched, I shook my head—these trackers are really not very clever.But fortunately, the three-person team who left the newspaper office didn't seem to care whether someone was following them or not—the one who walked ahead and opened the way was even yelling loudly for passers-by to make way. Wen Baoyu said at this time: "These people don't seem to be afraid of being followed." I said: "Things are a little weird──" Before I finished a sentence, I saw that the situation had changed—it must be explained that we saw a total of four sets of fluorescent screens, and each set represented a city.What's weird is that in the four groups of firefly reviews, the actions of the three-person group are almost identical. Not only that, but what happened next, the pictures that appeared on all four groups of fluorescent reviews were almost the same—if it wasn't for the different backgrounds, it really made people think that it was just a group of people carrying out activities. The change in the situation is: a pickup truck is seen approaching the trio.The three of them worked together to lift the iron box onto the truck. Seeing this, I couldn't help shouting: "Impossible! What we see is not the real situation!" The reason I call this is because what I see on the screen is getting weirder and weirder—the movements of the four groups of three are exactly the same, they bend down, lift the box, the posture of their hands, their fingers The position on the iron box is exactly the same, just like different copies of the same movie. It is impossible for four groups of people to have such a consistent movement, unless the four groups of twelve people are all robots and accept the command of the same software. There is also a simple possibility that the receiving system of this command center has been interfered, and someone has tampered with it and input the same signal, so this situation appears on the screen. As soon as I made a sound, Xiao Guo and Wen Baoyu also realized that something was wrong. Xiao Guo obviously never expected such a situation to happen, so he waved his hands for a while, but he didn't know how to deal with it. Wen Baoyu reacted quickly, he immediately called: "Hurry up and contact the on-site follow-up personnel directly!" At this time, the situation changed again, and a human face suddenly appeared on all the screens. That face occupies the entire screen, which is a "close-up". That person's facial features are very ordinary, but they look strange and inexplicable, the reason is not because they are weird, on the contrary, it is because they are too plain, or too ordinary. However, on this extremely ordinary face, there was an extremely strange aura, and it was extremely difficult to express exactly what he felt in his heart all of a sudden. Since the face appeared suddenly when it should never have appeared, everyone was taken aback. The entire command center was extremely quiet at that moment. Immediately afterwards, dozens of the same faces appeared on all the screens, and suddenly laughed—that smile was even more hair-raising. And after a smile, all the pictures disappeared and turned into a blank. It became clear that the matter had developed to this point—of course it was because the signal receiving system had been interfered with.It was because Wen Baoyu knew this that he had to directly contact the follower and listen to their report. Originally, outside the screen of the screen, the report of the stalker would match the actions seen on the screen at any time, but at this moment, the screen disappeared, and the voice of the stalker could not be heard at the same time. I saw Xiao Guo was stunned, his face was ashen, his eyes were straight, and his expression seemed extremely terrifying.Wen Baoyu screamed: "It's over!" For a while, in the command center, although no one made a sound, the whole atmosphere was extremely bad, and it could be said that it was enveloped in a breath of death. Generally speaking, only in the military camp after a defeat , there will be such a situation. I don't think this is right. Although we have suffered setbacks, it does not mean that we have suffered a complete defeat. Morale should not be so low. I broke the deathly silence, and shouted: "Don't let others be prestige, destroy your ambition! The signal system has been destroyed, but our stalkers are still there, and the stalking operation has not stopped!" Although I was "encouraging morale", I was also beating drums in my heart-because I knew that the communication equipment in the command center was designed by the Gobi Desert, and there is no doubt that it must be cutting-edge technology.But now it is vulnerable, so it can be seen that the opponent is also proficient in this way, at least his skill is not below the Gobi Desert, and it is more likely that it is stronger than the Gobi Desert. This reminds me of the situation in the previous story where the residence in the Gobi Desert was easily entered by the king of Tiangong. At that time, the two people in the Gobi Desert were ashamed, just like Xiao Guo is now. I can't even imagine how the Gobi Desert will react when they know their elaborate design, which is so easy to destroy. Although I pointed out that our tracking personnel are still there, I am not sure whether they will be able to complete the task when they have completely lost contact. Among all the people, Wen Baoyu was actually the most optimistic. He responded immediately: "Wesley is right! Our work is still going on, what is the result──" Before he finished speaking, Xiao Guo jumped off the table and rushed out. I called him, but he didn't answer, and rushed out all at once. At this moment, two people came in hastily from outside the door, almost bumping into Xiao Guo. When those two people walked in, they were shouting: "Sorry, we are late!" Those two people were none other than the Gobi Desert. They also saw that it was Xiao Guo who was rushing out. The reaction of the two of them was very fast. They stretched out their hands to grab Xiao Guo, but they were still a step too slow, and Xiao Guo rushed out. The two stood at the door with puzzled faces, and asked loudly, "It happened—" After only saying three words, they saw the situation in the command center, and they could know what happened without asking any further questions. The two of them shook their bodies first, then, with a strange cry, they staggered, rushed to the console, and began to operate extremely quickly. At this time, all the screens were pitch black and there was nothing. After their operations, the situation did not improve. The two stopped their hands, and after a while, they slowly turned around. During this period of time, the entire center was silent again—no one dared to make a sound. Everyone knew that the communication system had been damaged, and the two of them were the hardest hit. After the two turned around, they looked at me first. I asked loudly, "Have you recorded the signal you just received?" Immediately a staff member replied: "Yes!" I said, "Please replay." Only by replaying the signal received just now, can the Gobi Desert fully understand what happened. At the same time, I said to the Gobi Desert, "Let's read it first." The staff member began to replay the video recorded just now. After watching the Gobi Desert for less than a minute, the reaction was intense. They waved their arms, and let out a meaningless strange cry at first, which seemed like madness, which showed the severity of the blow they had received. However, the two of them were not ordinary people, and within a few seconds, they had calmed down and returned to normal. Although they were still short of breath, they were already discussing issues.Both of them spoke very fast, and their voices were so low that I had to get closer to hear what they were saying clearly. They were experts indeed—they saw the problem right away. They said one by one: "Good guy! Partial invasion!" The other one was afraid that I didn't understand, so he explained: "The signal partially intrudes and interferes with a part of the picture." I still don't quite understand: "What does that mean?" They pointed to the screen: "These three people are the picture formed by the signal added by the enemy. Everything seen in the background is the signal normally received." I couldn't help being shocked: "How can this be done?" The two said: "As long as you know the frequency of our signal." I glared at them and blamed them for making it so easy for people to know the frequency of the signal. The two looked extremely ugly, and after a while, they said: "The enemy has excellent equipment—of course, because we underestimated the enemy in advance, we didn't do a good job of defense. It was a big mistake." I patted them on the shoulder a few times: "People will inevitably make mistakes, so don't take it to heart." The Gobi Desert smiled wryly: "We have met a strong enemy this time." I tentatively asked: "Very powerful? How is it better than King Tiangong?" Although the faces of the two were ugly, they laughed at my words: "Of course they can't compare—at most, they are the same as us." They gave me such an answer, which made me feel at ease, because at least if the matter develops to the worst, I can still ask the king of Tiangong to come out to solve it. At first, I estimated the matter too easily, but now I am frustrated, so naturally I have to deal with it. Re-estimate. Now, I can't imagine what kind of person the other party is. The Gobi Desert has simply called it an "enemy". The Gobi Desert is still discussing the means used by the other party──There are a lot of technical terms in communication technology, and I don’t understand them very well. slightly. Wen Baoyu and I looked at each other, and he shook his head, expressing that he didn't know what Xiao Guo was going to do. Therefore, at present we are completely unable to take any further action. We have to wait for the follow-up personnel from various places to have the results, and then make a decision after seeing the results. I think it should be the tracking personnel in this city who got the results first, but in fact it was the other cities who came to report first——direct communication has been destroyed, and all reports are made by ordinary long-distance calls. It's ironic that ordinary equipment is more useful than special ones. The report was very frustrating and almost identical: a group of three took the iron box from the newspaper office, the trackers soon found that the direct communication was lost, they continued to track, but within twenty to thirty minutes, the other party was freed. , the trace failed. The same reports came one after another, and Wen Baoyu whispered in my ear: "Detective Guo's somersault is not small." I smiled bitterly: "You might as well say that I fell into a somersault." As soon as I said these words, I heard Xiao Guo's voice behind me: "How many years have we not felt the taste of failure? Sixty years of feng shui has changed, and we should have fallen." I turned my head and saw that Xiao Guo's face was blue, sweating profusely, and his expression was agitated, obviously thanking me for what I said just now-I put the setback on the two of us, which means that we have always advanced and retreated together.I think back to the time when Xiao Guo was plotted to explore the secrets of "Paper Monkey" with me, and he was seriously injured, as if it was right before my eyes. Thinking of the past, it is always a bit emotional, but it is not appropriate to miss the past now, I forced a smile: "It's just the beginning, why do you say we lost?" Wen Baoyu came over and said with a smile: "Even if you lose, it doesn't matter. As the saying goes, winning or losing is a common matter in military affairs, so what's the point!" Xiao Guo smiled wryly, and I asked, "How is the situation?" At this time, I had already guessed what Xiao Guo was going to do when he left just now—he was hit hard when the communication was cut off. Later, after I reminded him, he remembered that the newspaper office was not very far away from here, so he rushed over went to the scene. Looking at his current situation, it seems that after he arrived at the scene, the situation is not favorable-no matter what the situation is, I want to know what happened. Xiao Guo collected himself and asked, "Has there been any reports from other places?" I said: "Yes, all of them lost their targets within 30 minutes." Xiao Guo walked a few steps unsteadily, this kind of situation is really shocking to the eyes, Xiao Guo is not someone who has never experienced a big scene, but now it is like this, I really don't know what happened! Wen Baoyu pulled a chair and put it beside Xiao Guo. Xiao Guo sat down slumped, with his head in his hands, without saying a word. Wen Baoyu made his own decision and ordered all the staff to leave. In a blink of an eye, there were only five people left in the entire command center.Xiao Guo still didn't make a sound, and Gobi Desert kept pinching his fingers, making the knuckles make a "click" sound.
