Vol 2 Chapter 28: bathroom


At first, the night in the city is not like the Weed City, only one or two areas will be noisy. In different places here, there are voices from time to time.
   It wasn't until the early morning that the city really calmed down.
   After meeting the fourth patient with "no heart disease", the "old-tuned group" lost the mood of "walking" around, and went back to the "Ugo Hotel" in a hastily circle, and rested separately.
   The next morning, after finishing recovery training, they used a simple breakfast consisting of energy bars and compressed biscuits. In order to hurry up, they decided to split up:
Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao went to the Zhao’s liaison officer in the original city to find out if there have been changes in the several manors in the suburbs during the recent period, and then, depending on the situation, decide whether to start a preliminary, peripheral investigation; Bai Chen, Long Yuehong, and Gnawa went to the Hunter's Guild in Primordial City to sell them information about the ability of the White Giant Wolf, and at the same time, they asked about the whereabouts of Han Wanghuo.
   After having two military exoskeleton devices and Gnava, Jiang Baimian is more assured of Long Yuehong and Bai Chen's strength.
   Moreover, the "old-tone group" will not probe into the situation of the two descendants of O'Lei today, and there is almost no danger in what to do.
   As for the company's liaison officer, Jiang Baimian has already arranged an encrypted telegram with him about the time and place to meet in the evening.
   In this way, Jiang Baimian drove the army green jeep, carrying Shang Jian Yao, and headed to the golden wheat ear area south of the Red Giant Wolf area.
   Bai Chen, Long Yuehong, and Gnawa squad will find a way to get another car, which is convenient to carry two military exoskeleton devices in case of emergency.
   Jinmaisui District, Orao Street, Harvest Bathroom.
   Jiang Baimian observed the surrounding environment and stopped in the parking lot attached to the suspected bathroom.
This is not a big deal, because the urban areas to the east and south of the Red Giant Wolf District are not a place where most relic hunters can afford to live, and the public security situation is relatively good. It is not necessary to seek help from relic hunters. The number one automobile "production" has always been the ruins, but those vehicles often cannot be used directly, and must be repaired or modified. At the same time, the professional nature of the relic hunters requires them to have vehicles. Therefore, the relic hunters Where we are not active enough, car ownership is not high.
Residents living in similar areas may live better or safer than relic hunters, but they do not have enough power for their vehicles, and they lack channels to buy a few new cars, and they don’t trust relic hunters too much. The repaired vehicle that was dragged back from the rubble always suspected that it would be completely destroyed soon.
  Of course, there are always exceptions to everything. Otherwise, who will sell the extra vehicles that the hunters have worked so hard to get back?
The   Fengshou bathroom has only three floors. The porch is supported by white stone pillars and decorated with insufficiently refined reliefs.
   At this time, the bathroom is not open yet, but after Jiang Baimian reported the name "Mr. Zhao", he still met his boss Lanster smoothly.
   Lanster is a taller man from Red River, only slightly shorter than Shang Jianyao. He is in his thirties, has brown hair and fluffy, bright blue eyes.
  Wearing a black coat, he led Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao to his office, and introduced the situation of the Fengshou bathroom in the tone of discussing business with his partners:
   "We have four steam baths, eight hot pools, and four cold pools here, all divided into men and women... We have dedicated waiters to provide relaxation programs..."
   Just as Bai Chen introduced before, in the beginning, the bathroom in the city often worked part-time as a brothel.
   While talking, three people entered the office.
   Lanster sat down on the leather chair and asked warmly and kindly:
   "Are you sent by Senator Cho?"
   "Yes." Jiang Baimian nodded.
Zhao’s family has two liaison officers in the original city. One is bright and the other is dark. The bright one is Raun, the owner of Laun’s bakery diagonally across from the harvest bathroom. A person who knows.
   Of course, this is only what Zhao Zhengqi said. Jiang Baimian suspects that there are more than two liaisons for Zhao's family in Primordial City.
  The reason they visited Lanster instead of Raun was because Raun reported that there was no problem with the manor two weeks ago.
   Lanster was about to say something with a smile, when Shang Jian Yao suddenly asked:
   "Are you a believer of the'Forge Cult"?'
   His expression is unusually serious.
   At this moment, Jiang Baimian's subconscious reaction was to raise his right hand and cover his face.
   because she completely clarified Shang Jian Yao’s "logic":
   There is a "steam bath" here. The core of the mass ceremony of the "forge sect" is the steam bath, so the boss here is a believer of the "forge sect".
  According to this logic, the owners of most of the bathrooms in the city were originally believers of the "forge sect".
   Just as Jiang Baimian raised his right hand, he saw Lanster's face change.
   The smiling bathroom owner's expression was completely condensed.
   Uh... Jiang Baimian's right hand was in the air.
   Lanster looked at the two of them back and forth, then pressed his voice and asked:
   "What do you want to do?"
   got up, left the seat, and started... Jiang Baimian didn't respond, and counted down in his heart "woodenly".
   At the same time, Shang Jian Yao stood up abruptly, walked two steps sideways, twitching like a burn.
   After dancing this weird dance, Shang Jianyao solemnly blessed:
   "May the breath of the gods bathe you."
   Lanster also stood up subconsciously, and followed the dance that was hot to the heat.
   After a few moves, he said in surprise:
   "Are you also a believer in the New World Gate?"
  Shang Jian Yao nodded his head seriously and explained:
  "Only close.
   "When I was in Tarnan, I set a date for my baptism, but when something happened, I had to leave early."
   He has regrets on his face.
   "Yes." Jiang Baimian nodded in cooperation.
   She didn't say whether she was ready to teach.
   "It turned out to be a church member." Lanster breathed a sigh of relief, "No wonder I know that I am living in faith."
   No, the blind cat ran into a dead mouse... Jiang Baimian grumbled and asked curiously:
   "The sect asked you to serve Mr Cho?"
   Lanster laughed and said:
"Do not.
   "This is just a job, and I have to support myself and my family while I believe in and grow old."
   "That's it..." Jiang Baimian expressed understanding.
   Shang Jian Yao asked:
   "Is there a communion here?"
   Lanster sat down again and shook his head:
   "I am afraid of being exposed, so I have not added this service, but believers in this district will gather together in secret every week to share the sacrament."
   "I don't know me, can we participate?" Shang Jian Yao hesitated, but took Long Yuehong with them.
   Lanster smiled and said:
   "Wait after the ‘devotee’ baptizes you."
   Jiang Baimian no longer gives Shang Jianyao the opportunity to divert the topic, and turns to the main topic:
   "What happened to Senator Cho's manor?"
   Lanster hesitated for a moment:
  "The relic hunter I hired reported that strangers enter and leave the manor every day.
   "They were afraid of exposing themselves, so they didn't dare to use the camera, uh, they didn't have a camera. They could only draw the appearance of those strangers based on their memories."
   As he spoke, he opened the drawer and took out a stack of paper.
   Shang Jian Yao excitedly took it, turned a few pages, and said happily:
   "They paint worse than me!"
   Jiang Baimian thinks that this is not a problem of badness, but that the portraits of people have no characteristics, and they can't recognize who is who at all.
   Lanster didn't bother with this question, and continued:
  "And the managers of the several manor houses I met said there were no strangers.
   "At present, only this level has been investigated."
   It seems that Zhao Zhengqi was looking for someone to enter the manor to investigate through the open wire Raun... Jiang Baimian thought and said:
   "Can you create an opportunity for us to have direct contact with a certain manager of those estates? Without entering the estate."
   "It's easy." Lanster smiled. "There is a steward named Zhao Shouren who likes the steam bath very much. He will come every few days. If you count the time, he should come today."
   "Really?" Jiang Baimian asked subconsciously.
   "You can wait here, maybe you can see him at noon." Lanster pointed to the ceiling and said, "There is a room on the second floor where you can rest."
   Towards noon, the Harvest Bathroom officially opened, but only two steam baths, two hot pools and two cold pools were opened.
   Not long after, Lanster rang the room where Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian were resting:
   "Zhao Shouren is here, in the steam room."
   "I'll visit him." Shang Jian Yao smiled.
   Lanster then glanced at Jiang Baimian:
   "Why don't you go into the women's bathroom and steam it? It's next door."
   Jiang Baimian is also a curious person, and pondered a little:
"it is good."
   At this moment, Shang Jianyao suddenly came up with a sentence:
   "Be careful not to short circuit. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"
   This mockery... Jiang Baimian clenched his left fist, wishing to hit Shang Jianyao's abdomen.
   But she controlled herself, because after she thought about it, she felt that Shang Jian Yao's words were a kind of concern.
   Bio-prosthetic limbs will not short circuit when encountering steam.
   Back on the first floor, Shang Jian Yao went into the men's bathroom, took off his clothes, washed down his body, and then wrapped a large white bath towel around his waist.
   He immediately pushed open the door of the steam bath, and saw white mist enveloping and steaming steam inside.
   Vaguely, he saw a person in the corner, also naked and wrapped in a big bath towel.
   Shang Jian Yao walked over, sat next to him, looked at the water vapor from the red stone, and said with a smile:
   "What a coincidence, you are naked, and I am naked, you are taking a steam bath, I am also taking a steam bath, so..."
   The man was taken aback for a moment, looked sideways at Shang Jian Yao, and asked in surprise and joy:
   "Are you here too?"
   He looks like the two have known each other for a long time.
   When Shang saw Yao, he seized the opportunity and exchanged a few words to confirm that the other party was Zhao Shouren, and the relationship rose all the way to the level of brotherhood.
   "I heard that many strangers have come to your manor?" Shang Jianyao asked at last.
   Zhao Shouren was startled, and replied in a daze:
   "Nothing."
