Chapter 1067: Strange Vibes
Chapter 1067: Strange Vibes
Walking down from the mooring tower, Chen Chuan was escorted by his entourage through the square, and was finally invited by the receptionist into the luxurious hotel at the base.
On this not-so-long road, many eyes were staring at him, including the security personnel in the base and the supervisory personnel inside the hotel.
Outside the hotel, in a seemingly ordinary transport vehicle, there were many resonators using field information to observe the situation on his side.
There were also people from the intelligence system who were staring at the vague information field. They all had serious expressions, and there was a hint of nervousness in their eyes that was rarely seen.
The two largest intelligence agencies in the Federation are the Department of Strategic Affairs on the East Coast and the Department of Confidential Operations on the West Coast.
The people who appear here now are the subordinate members of the West Coast "Secret Operations Agency".
This time they were responsible for monitoring the entire visiting team, including several accompanying fighters.
They themselves knew that this kind of observation was almost transparent to the fighters, but it had to be done. Every fighter had extremely strong destructive power, but there were four of them here at once.
If possible, they didn't want to allow so many fighters to enter. The visiting team sent by the Federation only allowed one fighter to enter. However, this was specially approved by the Executive Government, which meant that the visitors had legitimate access rights. After all, no matter how much they argued internally, they were still the same country.
After Chen Chuan disappeared, the intelligence team leader reminded: "Remember, we need to keep an eye on this person. He is the focus of this investigation. No matter where he goes or what he does, we need detailed intelligence."
After Chen Chuan's information was updated, the West Coast Party raised his danger level by several levels. It should be noted that such a fighter has the ability to destroy a city and an entire military base alone, so such attention is extremely necessary.
After Chen Chuan arrived at the room arranged for him by the visiting group at the hotel, he took a look at a certain place, and with a sweep of his spiritual power, all the various biological insects detected there died instantly.
After putting down his luggage, he connected to the independent field channel set up by the visiting delegation. He first communicated with Gao Ming, then washed up, and after coming out, he enjoyed the delicious meal provided here and fed Chao Ming at the same time.
He glanced outside the curtains and saw a man behind the glass curtain wall of the opposite building shrinking his head immediately. He knew that someone was watching him. This was normal. Fighters would be treated like this in any country. Even Prabhakar was restricted in Dashun. Stricter measures were taken, and he was only allowed to move around in designated places.
Fortunately, this is an invited delegation, not an unsolicited visit, so there are no restrictions on them. However, there are still procedures to go through before the trip, and here Captain Xie needs to communicate with the Central City and the federal government first.
On the lower floor of the same hotel, Wang Tongshan and Bian Zhijie were drinking drinks together and enjoying the singing and dancing performances on the stage. The dance was passionate and unrestrained, with a strong sense of rhythm. There were also people beating the beat below, and the interaction on the scene was very good.
Bian Zhijie found it very interesting, and his body swayed slightly. When the song ended, he picked up the cup and took another sip. He frowned, picked up the bottle and looked at it, and said, "The drinks here in the Federation are pretty good, but the taste is a bit weird."
Wang Tongshan said: "Just get used to it. Besides, if you drink the same things you drink in China, then if you continue to drink the same things when you go abroad, then wouldn't it be a waste of your trip?"
He looked to the side and saw Gui Zihan sitting alone, holding the ancient sword in his arms. His posture and expression had not changed since he came in.
He called out, "Brother Gui, why don't you come over and have a drink with us?" Gui Zihan looked at the two of them and shook his head.
Wang and Bian looked at each other and gave up. Fortunately, they knew that Gui Zihan just had a bad temper and he didn't do it on purpose. Bian Zhijie used the excuse to say, "Brother Gui's temper can easily offend people. It's our fault."
Wang Tongshan said: "You are already a martial artist, can't you live a more independent life?"
"That's right."
Bian Zhijie thought about himself and realized that he was indeed unwilling to follow various rules, but he could not ignore the opinions of outsiders like Gui Zihan.
At this time, after the dancers on the stage left, a new pianist came up to play. The rhythm of the piano music was light, fresh and bright, like a breeze in the morning, which made people feel happy and relaxed. Two people who listened to it both applauded softly. After the pianist saluted and left, the door was pushed open and four people came in.
The first one was a man with a strong aura, tall and thin, with a cold expression, about forty years old, and looked like a mixed-race. He was wearing a black suit and had obvious implant marks on his neck and cheeks.
Behind him was a man who was about three meters tall, with a lot of implants on his body. It was obvious that he was not a cheap guy.
The two people at the back are dressed trendy, with blue makeup on their faces, so they are obviously Resonators. Since the degree of implantation from top to bottom is higher here in the Federation, the number of Resonators is far more than that in Dashun.
Wang and Bian took notice of the big man. He was a fighter and seemed to have reached the third level, but it seemed like his body had been replaced with an implant. They declined the offer and this approach also reduced the chance of becoming a fighter, unless it was an alienated organization with a very high matching rate, which was a very rare case.
After the four people came in, the leader took a look at the whole audience and actually came straight towards them.
Is this directed at them?
Wang and Bian looked at each other and suddenly became interested. They came here because they were bored. If someone was willing to entertain them, they would be very welcome. The man walked closer and introduced himself in a rather stiff Dashun dialect: "I am Ge Jixiong. I would like to invite you two to have a drink. Is that okay?"
Bian Zhijie gestured to the empty seat in front. After receiving the permission, Ge Jixiong relaxed a little, pulled out a chair and sat down, saying, "I'm sorry to disturb you two, but I really have no other choice..."
After listening to this man for a while, Wang and Bian learned that this man's father was from Dashun and his mother was from Lianfeng. He now runs a fairly large company, but has recently suffered repeated defeats in business competition with another company.
The main reason is that the senior officials they rely on lost in the election and retired from politics. The company lost its support, and many hiring companies were unwilling to take their business. It was difficult for the company's own security team to cope with another company's violent attack, and some state government officials who they deliberately made friends with now refused to answer their calls.
At this point, the logical thing to do is to give up the company obediently, and perhaps there would be a chance to retain some of one's own property.
But he was not willing to give up. He happened to see in the news recently that the Dashun delegation had arrived here, and suddenly he had an idea. So he spent a lot of money to inquire about the delegation and bought tickets to enter. He tried to get in touch with the fighters in the delegation and hoped to rely on this to save the crisis.
This idea, which seems somewhat unrealistic and fanciful, actually has some chance of success.
The key is that some people can think of it, but none of them have his ability to act.
For this reason, Wang Tongshan was willing to chat with him for a few more words. He asked, "Since your father is from Dashun, why don't you seek help from the Dashun Chamber of Commerce in the city? I believe they will provide you with help."
Ge Jixiong said: "My father once had a conflict with a big shot in the Chamber of Commerce. I am very grateful that they did not add insult to injury."
Bian Zhijie said: "How do you want us to help you?"
Ge Jixiong did not put forward any excessive conditions. He just wanted to invite them to his home and company as guests to intimidate the other party. He did not know how he got a formal invitation letter from the federal state government. With this document, theoretically he could invite anyone in the delegation to visit his company.
He said with a gloomy face: "Everyone thinks I'm finished. No one is willing to accept my commission, and I can't hire a good hiring team. But as long as I can show them that I can still hold on and that I'm not finished yet, they won't go against the money."
He looked at the two people and said sincerely, "My company's headquarters is in an industrial area outside the city. I can invite you on behalf of the company."
Bian Zhijie was very interested in this. He was free anyway and couldn't run around. Since someone invited him and didn't ask him to do anything, there was nothing wrong with taking a trip.
Wang Tongshan said: "Leave me your contact information."
Ge Jixiong immediately took out a name card and placed it on the table, "Here is my personal contact information."
He waved again, and the big man behind him took out two boxes and placed them in front of the two people. He said, "This is a gift for you two." He added, "It's a pleasure to meet you two. I won't disturb you anymore. I'll take my leave now."
Wang Tongshan said: "Mr. Ge, I forgot to ask, what business does your company do?"
Ge Jixiong said: "The company is committed to the revival and restoration of ancient plants, tracing back to the original appearance of nature. It is also responsible for ritual deciphering, antique recovery and some auction business."
After saying this, he bowed to them and left with his men.
After he left, Bian Zhijie said, "Brother Wang, what do you think? Are you going? This is a formal invitation from the company, so we don't have to stay here bored."
Wang Tongshan was very cautious and alert. He said, "I think I should ask Director Chen for instructions. Besides, this thing..." He glanced at his feet, "Don't open it yet. Just take it with you."
Although the two of them were not Chen Chuan's subordinates, they had to admit that after the team was temporarily separated, they tacitly assumed that Chen Chuan was the team leader.
Bian Zhijie said: "Then tell me."
After watching the show for a while, the two stood up and came to Chen Chuan. They wanted to greet Gui Zihan again, but he seemed to be bored and left early, so the two came to Chen Chuan's door and were invited in after getting permission.
