Chapter 154: Intelligence distribution center

"Listen, guys.; I know you feel at ease with me. But even if you don’t believe me, you should believe in General Deanby’s character. He is the kind of person who will never be merciless, simply because I brought you here. Here, he won’t let me go. Even if I betray you, I won’t be forgiven because of it. After they wiped you all out, the first thing they did was hang me in public in order to behave like you.
Vitalk Said with a wry smile. "So I won't betray you so stupidly."
"It makes sense, but if Lin Rui follows you, it shouldn't get in the way, don't you think?" Jiang An looked at him.
"Well, if you insist." Vitalk said helplessly, "then let him come with me. But there is one more thing, you must not cause trouble here, it is best to keep a low profile. People here don't like it. Outsider."
Lin Rui stood up and said, "Okay, let's go." He wrapped his entire face and neck with a sand-proof turban, and coupled with the dusty camouflage uniform on his body, it made him look similar to the local The militants are almost the same. This place is near the desert, and the sand is very windy, and there are not a few people dressed like Lin Rui.
"Be careful. If there is something abnormal, you know what to do." Zhao Jianfei winked at Lin Rui.
Vitalk said in a deep voice, "No matter what you see, stay calm. Leave it to me to deal with it. I have more methods here than you." Lin Rui nodded and said nothing. Just followed him in silence, and the distance was not too close, probably two or three steps away from him.
They first crossed the noisy market street, and then turned into an alley. Because the current situation is chaotic, almost no one uses the national currency. All transactions are either in U.S. dollars or barter. Weapons are also openly peddled on the street. From ak47 rifles to anti-tank mines, as long as you have money or possessions, you can get weapons.
Lin Rui even saw someone exchange a cigarette for a gun and a bullet. Even black African children running barefoot on the street often see weapons hanging from their necks, but they are already good gunners at a young age. Lin Rui sighed secretly, turned his head and didn't want to see these children with weapons.
This is a crazy world, and continuous wars have even affected generations of people. And these children grew up by touching guns. In addition to the warlord or the most followers of the warlord, what kind of people can they eventually become?
"Don't read it, just get used to it." Vitalk whispered. "Cross the two streets in front and arrive at the checkpoint. Anyone who passes there will be checked. No one can enter the Eastern District with weapons, because since last month, military control and strict gun control have been implemented there. Don’t talk there, just listen to me."
Lin Rui nodded silently, and followed Vitalk. That checkpoint is like a battlefield, barbed wire, and stacked sandbags. The wreckage of the abandoned burnt car was toppled over there, forming a roadblock. The bullet marks and blood stains on the wall near the checkpoint were shocking. The armed rebels had grim expressions and checked all the pedestrians.
"At the location of that wall, the rebels executed nearly 80 people overnight. The bullet marks and blood stains on the wall were left at that time." Vitalk whispered, "The reason is they People who are pro-government forces. And as long as there are able elements, they are often brought there without interrogation and executed in public. So don't stare at them, be careful that someone thinks you are theirs."
Lin Rui sneered, "Why, can they still shoot me?"
"I know you are very good. But in this place, you can't survive by relying on your marksmanship. If you want to live safely, you can rely more on this." Vitalk pointed to himself Head. He led Lin Rui to the checkpoint, took a few steps, and whispered a few words to a rebel in charge of the check. The rebels frowned and looked at him, then followed him to look at Lin Rui. Just a hastily searched to see if they were carrying weapons, and then turned around and let them go.
Lin Rui lowered his head, passed the checkpoint, and whispered, "Is it that simple? How did you convince that person to let him go?"
Vitalk whispered, "When I was talking to him just now, while no one was paying attention, I gave him twenty dollars. How else could he let him go so simply? Sometimes, you even said ten thousand sentences Then, it’s not worth giving him dozens of dollars in change. This is reality,"
"It turns out that the rebels used this to ask for bribes." Lin Rui realized it suddenly and couldn't help but smile. These rebels were originally local armed forces under General Dunby, and their military discipline was very poor, and they were basically similar to bandits. It is very common to ask for bribes. Vitalk has been together here for many years, living his life by inquiring and selling information, naturally he knows the secrets. He dealt with all kinds of people, so he could see at a glance who would take bribes.
When passing the checkpoint, Vitalk speeded up his pace as much as possible and turned into a nearby alley. This was considered a safe place. Two people passed the checkpoint without any risk. Vitalk leaned against the wall and panted for a while, then nodded to Lin Rui, "It should be better now, but follow me, try to walk the alleys in the city, the gaps between the buildings, and don’t go up. The main road. Because there are often rebel patrol teams on the main road. They are not as easy to deal with as the rebels at the checkpoint. These people are very loyal and are the trusted force that General Dunby relies on."
Vitalk took Lin Rui and walked in the alleys of Dongcheng District. He seems to be very familiar with these poor streets and alleys, turning around. After seeing him, several black people along the way nodded silently to him, gave way and helped him guard the passage behind him.
Lin Rui frowned slightly, "Who are these people?"
"They are all informants. Don’t you think that I’m the only one to collect intelligence? I’m an intelligence dealer, and I naturally have intelligence channels. These people are my channels, and they are all over the city. Even if I am Staying in one place and not going out, you can also understand all the news of Cantor City." Vitalk said slowly.
"Where are we going now? Aren't we going to find out about Black Pearl Betty?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Yes, so we have to come here first." Vitalk walked to a building that looked like a ruin and slowly said, "Welcome to the largest intelligence distribution center in Cantor City-my home. "
