The nights in Jinchi City are deserted.

It is completely different from the imagined capital. At night in this city, you can't see any lights and wine, or you can't feel the prosperity of the late night world.

Walking on the not-so-spacious street, there are shops with doors closed tightly on both sides of the road.

Even if there are occasional lights on business, it is only public infrastructure such as supermarkets and gas stations.

Quiet, almost deadly quiet.

This is not the weather in the capital!

Take out any county town in China, and the nightlife is more exciting than here.

Su Mu, who had been wandering after the embassy came out, witnessed the scene after the sky became dark, and a puzzled look appeared between her eyebrows.

After taking a casual sip of mineral water, he asked lightly: "Situ, has Jinchicheng been like this before?"

Compared with Liuyun, Su Mu now likes to use the title of Situ.

Situ Liuyun naturally doesn't care. Su Mu's name is good. After hearing the question, he shook his head and said, "Ambassador, this is not the case. Jinchi City used to be very lively and prosperous. Not only here, but the nights in other cities are also wonderful!"

"But starting a month ago, the nights in Jinchi City began to become deserted. Although there was no explicit announcement of the whole city curfew, those businesses were not allowed to continue to operate normally."

"In fact, there is no need for the government to say this, because after a series of incidents, the businessmen consciously began to avoid continuing to open at night."

"What happened?" Su Mu asked in a deep voice with his eyebrows raised.

"Robbery and murder everywhere, and commit crimes of wanton arson!"

A trace of coldness flashed in Situ Liuyun's eyes, and he said with lingering fear: "I was still in Jinchi City at that time, and I witnessed that kind of scene with my own eyes."

"To be honest, I have experienced a lot in the past, but compared with the various situations I have seen these days, I feel that those experiences before have become pediatrics!"

"You must know that this is a capital city of a country after all, and robbery and murder will happen on the street. If the shop dares to open the door, there will be illegal people rushing in and setting fire."

"You said that although the things I did before were ruthless and ruthless, what happened here was too dark. What's even more outrageous is that such a case that was obviously a crime has not been solved yet, and the official seems to have ignored this matter intentionally or unintentionally."

"In such a crisis, who else dares to open the door to do business casually? I can conclude that even those gas stations and supermarkets that are still open, the people inside must be working in fear."

"Oh, there is such a thing?" Su Mu subconsciously narrowed his eyes.

Intuition told him that something was wrong.

The imperial capital has set fire, robbery and murder, and the case has not been solved for a long time. Isn’t this enough to explain the seriousness and tricks of the problem?

“Or…”

Su Mu's eyelids suddenly trembled slightly, and a bad guess suddenly rose. Is the abolition of Confucius Institute related to this curfew in Jinchi City?

"Amusement, there are exceptions to Jinchi City. It is not that all places are so deserted. The most famous Never Night Sky here is Linhe Street, which has countless bars. I usually like to be there."

"Because the Bounty Hunter's headquarters is there, and you know that news circulates the fastest in places like this, where fish and snakes are mixed."

"If you want to know the latest news about this city and this country, it is absolutely right to go there. Among the many bars on Linhe Street, the Marquis can rank at the forefront."

After pondering for a moment, Situ Liuyun continued to comment: "The Marquis is the most lively and luxurious bar on Linhe Street. In addition to hardware facilities, the most important thing is to have a background and background."

"It was created by an organization called Seraph in Jinchi City, and everyone knows that this Seraph is a force that is disgraceful."

"There is news that the arson crime and robbery and murder of some time ago have something to do with them, but no one has conclusive evidence."

This information is actually well-known, and anyone who is hiding in Linhe Street knows it.

"Marquis Bar?"

A curl of interest appeared on the corner of Su Mu's mouth, "Then let's go to the Marquis to have a drink."

"Ambassador, is it appropriate to go there as our identity?" Situ Liuyun hesitated.

If it were before, he would definitely not hesitate like this. As a bounty hunter, he would dare to go to even the worst places, not to mention the Marquis Bar.

But now, he has different identities, and he is even more worried about Su Mu.

After all, they are all ambassadors abroad. If something happens in a place like Marquis Bar, how will it end?

Although I have some skills, I can't beat four hands with two fists. I'm not afraid of ten thousand, but I'm afraid of one. In case something happens, Situ Liuyun can't bear this responsibility.

I wouldn't talk much if I had known it.

Su Mu had a look at Situ Liuyun's thoughts, and smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "Situ, although Jinchi City is the capital of Taidi, tell me how big is this capital? Compared with our country, what kind of city is it equivalent to?"

"Taidi State has always been just a small country, and its area is only as large as two ordinary provinces in our country. Even if it is the capital, Jinchi City is the same as an ordinary prefecture-level city when it comes to scale." Situ Liuyun blurted out without pause.

"Haha, that's all. If such a place is not a country, it will be a larger province in our country. What should I be afraid of?"

"Let's go, we're just going to have a drink, not causing trouble, what are we afraid of?" Su Muyun said lightly, turned around and walked forward.

"Is this the way?"

"I'll lead the way." Situ Liuyun gritted his teeth and rushed to follow.

...

Linhe Street Marquis Bar.

This area is called Linhe Street, which is speechless because it is next to an artificial river.

There are countless bars by the river, with bright lights and wine, and the figures coming and going are intertwined, and various shouts are heard one after another.

The air was filled with an erosive smell of alcohol.

This is what I imagined as the capital.

If it were all the deadly curfew status, it would disappoint Su Mu in this country.

In his heart, a city that is dirty, messy, and lively is not scary, but what he is afraid of is lifelessness.

A city without any vitality is the most pitiful and desperate.

Interestingly, Su Mu could hear bad Chinese conversations at any time here.

“The Marquis Bar has a themed party tonight and can’t be missed.”

"I want to go, but I don't have any money."

"No money is required tonight, no tickets are charged."

...

When such a conversation sounded, Situ Liuyun smiled and explained: "Before the Confucius Institute was abolished, the Chinese language of Taidi was a second language. Many people in this country could understand a little bit even if they didn't understand Chinese. What they said here was very common."

"This is the same as when people find a place in our country, they will say a few words of English. But here, Chinese is a second language, but in our country, English has an absolute status."

Situ Liuyun showed a kind of disappointment inside and outside his words.

"You want to say that my ancestors' Chinese studies are not as good as English, right?" Su Mu asked unmoved and plainly.

"yes."

Situ Liuyun did not mean to avoid this question at all, and gritted her teeth and said firmly: "That's what I mean. Sometimes I am very depressed and helpless in China."

"I think that in Taidi, our country's Chinese has such a high status, but no one in China studies Chinese in depth. Instead, various English training institutions are emerging one after another."

"The treasure cultures left by our ancestors are abandoned like worn-out shoes, and I feel heartbroken. Ambassador, do you think this is a pathological condition?"

If you have never experienced the impact of the Chinese cultural status of Taidi, others will not think of this, and will not empathize with it.

But Su Mu understood this feeling very well.

"Situ, you are right. This is a kind of pathology. However, any pathology has historical and social reasons. After all, our country must be in line with the international community, so it is normal to learn English."

"But don't worry, China is no longer the same as before. Many cultures left by our ancestors are gradually beginning to dominate."

"Chinese studies and traditional Chinese medicine have begun to gradually recover. I believe that one day, Chinese culture will become the official global culture." When Su Mu talked about this, he released a strong aura, and two rays of light that seemed to be substantial burst out in his eyes.

People are in foreign countries and hope for the prosperity and strength of the country.

"I believe our motherland will definitely be like this. After all, a country that does not even have its own cultural and historical heritage will be difficult to be valued by other countries."

"Just like this Taidi Kingdom, even if it has a good relationship with our China, and even if there are Confucius Institutes everywhere, the national culture of their country is deeply rooted and no one can erase or ignore it." Situ Liuyun had a strong sense of identity with the Taidi Kingdom when he talked about this.

"It should be." Su Mu said with a smile.

“The Marquis Bar is ahead!”

With Situ Liuyun's fingers, Su Mu saw a bar of quite considerable size.

It covers an area of ​​just like a football field, with three floors in layout, and is very fashionable and fashionable in appearance. It is especially beautiful against the backdrop of the lights and is brilliant in golden light.

And unlike the average rules of other bars, there is a welcome lady here.

The six girls wearing mini skirts were all standard beauties, with tall breasts and large snow-white shaking on their chests.

There is a parking lot in front of the bar. All those who can park here are expensive luxury cars. In the ordinary sense, cars should not be approached unless they have a good license plate.

Once, an ordinary car that didn't understand the rules drove in and was towed away on the spot.

"There is a theme party here tonight called purification. It sounds very sacred, right? In fact, to put it bluntly, a group of rich and powerful people are making random things here. Every time they play with the theme, they will say it very mysterious."

"Mr. Su, if you want to drink, let's go to the second floor, which is an orthodox drinking area. I dare not say anything else, the quality of the Marquis' wine is impeccable and he will not sell fake wine." Situ Liuyun's familiar recommendation.

"Then go to the second floor."
