The two walked through the diversion gate passage and, according to the station broadcast, came to a brightly lit office building. The decoration of the building was very industrial.

Ah Xing was about to break in, but Jiang Xueming was more careful and took several big circles on both sides of the cement road.

He avoided the passing car, carefully observed the white lines on the roads on both sides, and opened the mobile phone map.

The location of the map navigation shows that they have arrived in Europe, to be precise, close to Iceland's waters, with an underground area of ​​more than 33,000 meters.

The GPS positioning signal is sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and the positioning on the map also erratic. The mobile phone signal falls to 3G. The personnel at the broadcast station also told the passengers that if you want high-quality communication signals in this place, you can only call outside by dialing the line. The communication cables of the station are paved with the railway. The signal base station here is very old and can only be said to be barely enough.

But this is not what Jiang Xueming cares about-

——What he cares about is the signal cables on both sides of the road and the style of road markings.

Xueming used to work in a battery factory and saw many signal wires. Regardless of the size of the equipment, between the production workshop or electrical room and the substation, these wires are needed to issue control instructions.

In this underground city, these signal lines are like dense blood vessels, extending all the way from the outer edge of the city far away from the road.

Since there is no need to resist the rain and wind blowing of the natural climate, these cables are not hung on the telephone poles and do not need to be buried. They just slumped in the fields on both sides of the road, wrapped in simple white plastic hard shells.

What Jiang Xueming was curious about was the cover characters of these signal cables and high-voltage wires - he couldn't understand them at all.

I really can't even "understand a little" - I don't understand at all.

The characters written on the cover are different from the isolated letters of any country or language in his common sense. They are more like a code or an old word.

Serials of symbols are embedded together, leading to the distance along the cables.

This symbol also exists on the white road markings on both sides of the road.

Xue Ming immediately pulled A Xing and pointed at the marking section, "Do you know these things? A Xing?"

A Xing was confused and squatted down with Brother Ming. After watching for a long time, he couldn't see something strange. Finally, he seemed to have a light of inspiration: "Oh! I remembered it!"

Jiang Xueming held the notebook and recorded the symbols on the road marking section, and asked again: "Do you know what these symbols mean?"

"I often watch anime!" Bu Leixing took out his mobile phone, looked at the marks similar to magic runes in the comics, and compared them with the signs on the road: "In works with fantasy themes, there are many runes made in reference to ancient texts, and this one should be Rune words."

"Ah?" Jiang Xueming actually felt that he had lost money after eating and not watching any cartoons.

A Xing rarely shows off his knowledge reserves to Brother Ming. His tail was so high that he was about to be tilted to Brother Ming. "Look at Brother Ming, the Luen Fu in Nordic mythology, the road markings on both sides of the road should be written as [Jera], which means [time, year]."

After a while, he pointed to another Rune text.

"This is called [Ehwaz], which means [horse, beast that carries things]."

The two stood up, and A Xing saw the dam entrance and the underground river in the distance, and there was a huge symbol on the stone pier.

"That is called [Laguz], which means [water flow, water]."

"Oh, I understand, it's just a change in the ancient language to mark it..." Jiang Xueming didn't care much, and thought to himself - maybe it was the strange sense of ritual of urban designers. After all, Chinese architecture also likes to pay attention to ancient Chinese or Feng Shui to build houses.

"How is it? Am I awesome?" A Xing looked so arrogant that he finally taught Brother Ming for a while, but he was so awesome.

"Awesome! I still have a lot to ask you for advice..." Jiang Xueming suddenly showed a strange look.

That kind of eyes Ah Xing had seen, as if at the dining table of the former residence, Brother Ming looked at Coach Li, hoping to suck him dry--

"—No, no! I don't understand, I don't understand! I have learning materials here! Brother Ming, you want to learn from me and give you some popular and historical and cultural dramas!" Ah Xing immediately admitted defeat.

After Xue Ming finished taking photos of these external roads, because the ambient light here is very dark and the image quality of the photo is also very bad, he painted all the symbols in a well-liked manner on his notebook.

......

......

The two continued to walk towards the office building.

Open the door and you will be the Central Office of the Armed Employees in the City.

In this tall building with a height of more than 30 stories, there were not many people on duty at the front desk, three clerks and two translators. In addition, even the shadow of the cleaner could not be seen.

These signs puzzled Jiang Xueming - in such a big city, the headquarters of the armed employees responsible for peripheral security work is so empty?

He thought in his mind that maybe this is a good thing-

——There are few armed personnel on the periphery, which also means that the periphery is relatively safe and does not require so many personnel to be stationed.

The next step is to follow the process.

The passenger's ID was handed over. The director staff wrote the new chapter of the dead body to the ID and sent out two personnel registration forms.

After filling out the form, an interpreter led the way to the 22nd floor to find their security officer.

Except for Amin and the translator chatting alone, the whole process was very quiet. The things we talked about were also very unnutritious. Most of them were gossip news from various stations, and the rumor that was difficult to tell whether it was true or false.

The translator took them to the door of 2219 and left in a hurry. From the conversation, Xue Ming learned that there were six translators in the entire building, three small language translators and three large language translators. He was very busy with work and had no time to gossip with them.

Jiang Xueming still has the same style as before.

He knocked on the door first, then immediately pushed it in.

"Hello!"

Just entered the door-

——The two of them smelled the strong smell of cigarettes and a scene that was indescribable in words.

The scene was too chaotic, and the SAN value of the two people was soaring. To understand the entire layout of the 2219 room, we have to start with the peripheral corridor.

The interior layout of this building is in a zigzag shape, with a large patio in the middle for ventilation and elevators, and you can directly see the front desk of the office on the first floor from the corridor.

It looks like an apartment design, so most armed employees also transform their offices into dormitories.

Originally, Xue Ming was already a little mentally prepared when he saw the clothes hanging around the corridor, but when he really pushed open the door, he was still shocked by the strong impact.

The doors of 2219 are full of used drink cans on both sides, layers of instant food waste are not packaged, and they are thrown next to the weapon cabinet to form small hills.

Further inside are simple bathrooms and bathrooms. They have been around for a long time. Many walls fall off and smash them into pieces, and no one goes to clean them up.

There are many signs of stomping on the exposed floor tiles. Just throwing the cigarette butts away, no one cares about the ash.

Next to the bathroom are two large bookshelves that are tilted around. They are like they are knocked down by something, but they just happened to be touching each other and support each other so that they will not fall completely. The yellow page envelopes and documents are scattered all over the floor and mixed with other domestic garbage.

Then there were the TVs on the large desk, and DVDs – and dozens of unpacked DVD discs.

There is also the ashtray, which is stuffed with cigarette butts like a stack of arhats. It seems to be too beautiful and quiet, and should be called an ashes bucket.

There are several mesh cables on both sides of the ceiling fan in the room, from the beams of the bathroom to the steel beams of the glass doors on the other side, and various underwear and staff uniforms are hung.

Finally, there are the main owners of this room - the armed employees of A Xing and A Min, and the security officers on this trip.

The woman was wearing only underwear, standing on the desk, holding the upper hanging rope in both hands, and hanging the ceiling fan.

This is the chaotic scene that Bu Leixing and Jiang Xueming couldn't understand for a while.

Their five senses are outstanding and they see a lot of things. The brain also has a lot of information to process, so for a while, the whole room fell into a strange silence.

As soon as I entered the room, I could only smell the strong smell of smoke. In just a few seconds, the stench of domestic garbage hit me.

Fortunately, there are no bugs, cockroaches and flies in this place, otherwise the mental power of the two little guys would have fallen a little.

The two looked at the lady for a long time—no one spoke.

The strange silence lasted for a long time.

It took about one and a half minutes, ninety seconds so long.

During this time—

——Jiang Xueming's brain is trembling.

People can't stand this way of living this way. All the dirty and messy in the house are like bullets. Oh no, it's like a 40-fire bombardment in his head.

This vicious mental attack made him froze.

——Bu Meilixing’s brain is also trembling.

He saw DVDs on the table and comic books buried in yellow pages envelopes on the ground.

The young lady who was about to hang herself did not move, as if her brain had lost power. Looking at her muscles, she was a person who exercised regularly, with obvious lines of deltoid muscles and six pack abdominal muscles. Looking at her Miniso’s special underwear, she even forgot to tear the label. She was a person who dressed very casually.

finally--

--finally.

"call--"

The armed employee's young lady breathed a sigh of relief.

It was like walking down from the Red Platform execution ground and decided not to die.

She rubbed her messy golden and black hair on her head, as if she was tidying up hay, and was chanting Japanese, which was a boring greeting.

“いらっしゃい口せ[Welcome]..."

Bu Xuexing pulled Ming Ge's arm.

"Are you a cherry blossom girl?"

Jiang Xueming still found it difficult to escape from that chaotic mental state. After finally recovering from waking up, he held his hands and feet two or three times, fearing that he would become a ruthless housekeeping machine. Finally, he replied: "What's wrong?"

Bu Leixing learned the lines from Dream of Red Mansions again: "Ah! I have seen this sister from Fusang..."

"You are a little more normal..." Xue Ming's mouth twitched.
