Chapter 216 The last level

The recently promoted deputy section chief of the affairs department was no longer interested in making things difficult for the other party. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll let you go this time. Remember to pay taxes in time in the future... By the way, who is behind you? He has hidden his head and tail."

For Li Ming, the last sentence was just a casual question. He had no interest in whether the red-faced man was helping people smuggle or sheltering some wanted criminals.

But for the red-faced person, this problem is very difficult, because according to the rules of Tianhuang District, when these bureaucrats representing the company make similar requests, the only correct response is to show the suspected targets in detail to prove their innocence.

Simply put, it is to take off the hood, reveal its face, and then make a simple authentication in the database by Jing Liming's holographic tablet.

Of course, Liming may not have the patience to do that certification. He may look at the face under the hood and will no longer pay attention to the red face. But the face under the hood cannot be seen by anyone.

This is no longer a stage perfectly decorated by red-faced people. There are not so many children around, so it is impossible to create an atmosphere of following the crowd. So once Sean's appearance is exposed, the setting of a female tenant in her 20s will immediately collapse.

But if the blushing person is indifferent at this time, it will obviously arouse Li Ming's anger again and make him come to cause trouble again.

Sean's heart moved and prepared to step forward to overcome the difficulties with his heart-touching technique, but before he could take action, he saw the hand behind Kratuin clamping his fists hard, indicating that he would never act rashly.

The next moment, a violent explosion suddenly came from a distance. Sean turned his head in surprise and looked in the direction of the explosion. It was clearly located in Black and White Street.

However, the red-faced man did not give Sean more time to react. He seized the opportunity and took advantage of Li Ming and Shi Liu being so scared that they collapsed to the ground, quickly walked forward and left a sentence in a low voice.

"This female human is my tenant, and I'm going to take her to take refuge."

"Ah, ah, OK!" Li Ming nodded subconsciously, not knowing what he had heard.

——

The red-faced man took Sean and walked a long way again before finally slowing down.

The explosion storm in the Black and White Street gradually dissipated - after all, it was just an explosion in the chaotic and disorderly slums, and it was not enough to attract too many people's attention.

Before Sean spoke, the red-faced man said, "That was a cooperation that Hu Bo and the others had already made. Once an accident that was difficult to deal with properly occurs, he would use the explosion to attract attention and win opportunities for us. Obviously, they knew very well how troublesome these two affairs officers on the way we were on."

Sean nodded and did not ask much. He was indeed concerned about whether there would be casualties on the Black and White Street, but since everything was planned, all he had to do was to cherish this opportunity and go to [Red-Cai Port] to meet Li Yu with the help of the red-faced man.

However, after following the red-faced man so far, Sean's doubts became deeper and deeper.

Where is the red-faced person going?

The front is not the direction of Tianxuan District at all! On the contrary, it is the bottom layer of Tianhuang District 5, a garbage dump that has not been described too much in any information. It is also the farthest point from [Rainbow Harbor] in the entire Tianhuang District 5.

From the process, the Red-faced Man's smuggling operation was flawless and concealed from everyone's eyes, but from the result, he took Sean to death.

But Sean never expressed his doubts, but just followed the blushing man silently.

The two walked all the way to a gloomy and cold silent square. It was called a square, but in fact it seemed crowded and cramped, especially the end was separated by a huge rusty metal wall, as if it was a execution ground beheaded by a sharp weapon.

What hits me was the cold wind and rotten odor, but what was hidden in this odor was also a large amount of living people.

"This is the bottom slum in the fifth district." The red-faced man suddenly spoke to explain to Sean, "In most official information, this is an unmanned land, but there are actually many people living here. Although in the eyes of the slums, they are no different from being dead."

There are many metal sheds standing in a twist and crooked manner in the square, which are simple but at least complete structures like Black and White Street. The metal sheds here seem to be homeless people who are carelessly covering their bodies with rags. Living in the metal sheds are a group of almost inhuman creatures.

Even the poorest and most embarrassing people in the slums will not be as dirty and desperate as they are.

"These people once lived in heaven."

The red-faced man stretched out his hand upwards, and Sean's eyes moved upwards, and he saw a trance of glory.

The next moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly realized that the light came from [Buzhou].

The energy core from [Li] sprinkled a little afterglow into the garbage dump at the bottom through Tianxuan District. It seemed as if the nobles were high above, sprinkling the food debris in their hands to the beggars.

The red-faced man had no sympathy at all. He pointed his hand at the residents in the square and said, "But now they can only creep in the mud, because they are unwilling to live on the ground and accept everything alive beside them. They would rather use their remaining life to pray for themselves to reach the sky in one step."

Sean nodded, unable to help but sigh.

The people who are red-faced people refer to the heavenly people, obviously referring to the indigenous people of Tianxuan District, such as Dr. Wang Yi. For various reasons, they lost their identity and privileges and fell to the bottom of the city.

But unlike Wang Yi, who was happy in Tianxuan District 9, some people completely refused to accept reality and were unwilling to open a new life in the slums. Instead, they begged day and night to open their doors to them.

This dead square is probably their place of prayer.

The red-faced man said, "The reason they gather here is because, in legend, there is a passage that can directly reach the Tianxuan District."

Sean blinked, disagreed with the legend.

Indeed, in terms of geographical location, this square is not far from Tianxuan District. Although the light from above seems to be another world, according to the three-dimensional map of [Li], behind the wall is indeed the territory of Tianxuan District, but it is just a storage area of ​​District 7, not a living area.

This space city is not a planar structure, and Tianxuan District is not only a living area on the ground.

However, just looking at the merciless thick wall can make people clearly feel the insurmountable barrier between Tianhuang District and Tianxuan District.

"High voltage electricity, monitoring probes, automatic turrets..." said the red-faced man, "The people behind the wall know very well what kind of goods are gathered here, so they will do everything possible to block them outside the wall."

Sean added in his heart: But what is more important is that those invisible obstacles that have been stripped of their identities, even if they return to Tianxuan District, are just unwelcome foreign objects. Compared to a person's character and ability, identity is often more important.

So what if there is really a secret passage that can make people reach Tianxuan District directly? Could it be that [Li] has any rule that stipulates that those who walk through that road can pardon all crimes and restore their identity?

After all, it is just a group of people who are unwilling to admit reality, and they pin their hopes on invisible things similar to religion.

Meanwhile, the red-faced man said: "But as long as you can cross this wall, you can easily reach [Rainbow Harbor]. There is a fast track for cargo transportation from underground storage area to Rainbow Harbor. There will be a rail express train at every standard, and it is currently under the control of silver."

"And it's my job to help you cross this wall."

Sean was excited: Could it be that the red-faced man really have a way to climb over this wall and help him reach Tianxuan District?

This smuggling route was really unexpected... However, at this moment, Sean couldn't help but frown.

“I have a bad feeling.”

The red-faced man said, "I don't need your premonition, I just need your cooperation, come with me now."

Sean opened his mouth, but did not argue with the other party in the end, but just silently clamped the lightsaber around his waist, ready to welcome any unexpected arrival.

However, at this moment, an accident came.

——

The red-faced man was the first to open the way and walked straight in the middle of the square. His steps were extremely heavy, as if he was telling his arrival. The people living in the shed were like small animals frightened by giant beasts, and they all retreated.

After walking all the way to the high wall, the red-faced man stopped. He reached out to caress the rust on the wall, as if he was looking for some mechanism.

However, soon he changed his face and turned around suddenly.

Behind him, in the shadow of the mud, a tall Nikto slowly stood up.

"Are you looking for this thing, the Kratuin?" The leader of the second group of the Dragon Hunter laughed hoarsely. He was holding a square piece of metal in his hand, looking at the color that matched the thick gray wall.

"It's really interesting. Watching you act carefully along the way, treating everyone as rusty metal heads... But I knew from the beginning that it must be you! Only you, the dog under the Hutts, have the ability to help the wanted criminal escape! So no matter how serious you act, we will be waiting for you in the end."

At the same time, behind the Sanguan, one dragon hunter warrior after another stood up, fully armed and murderous intent.

But in the end, I didn't take action immediately.

"When I came, the leader told me seriously that even a Jedi apprentice could kill, but you, even if you want to kill, you must kill with integrity and righteousness. Because your master once helped us a lot, this is also a necessary favor."

Nickto said, spat: "I hate this kind of relationship and interest most. So I will let you understand that according to the law of [Leave], those who shelter wanted criminals will be killed without mercy. Even if your master comes, there will be no exception, so..."

"So where are the wanted criminals you mentioned?" The red-faced man responded calmly, even though he was surrounded by someone from behind and was shot at the vital point of a gun, he was still not afraid.

The Nikto man didn't want to talk nonsense with the other party, so he stepped forward two steps, squeezed away the red-faced man, and then reached out and lifted the hood of the cape man.
