Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 116: The best life I can think of (please subscribe)

Not long after, Su Lun and Kai rode their motorcycles to Norton Street.

This place is completely different from when I came here before. There are custom halls, gambling stalls, pubs, and special bathhouses... all kinds of gorgeous neon lights light up the entire block.

Su Lun and Kai felt that this scene was extremely familiar.

"Scarlet Bunker", "Elephant Tavern", "Imperial Baths", "Musketeers Inn"...the familiar signs are no different from the once bustling Green Street.

Kayi looked at it and pursed his lips, feeling emotional at the scene. The leader of Green Street was deeply touched.

Su Lun looked indifferent. If he really had to start patrolling the streets at seven o'clock every night, it wouldn't take much time. The worst he could do was move here again. And since the arena is open, he can come and harvest a wave of souls every night, which is also a good thing.

...........

Today is the street opening ceremony, and Norton Street is very lively.

The president of the Cross Society, "Arbiter" Chuck, and a group of cadres also came.

Everyone is wearing a suit and leather shoes, and they are dressed very formally. Except for the murderous look between his brows, no one could tell that this was a gang of murderous gangsters, but more like a successful entrepreneur.

Most of the major shareholders in the entertainment industry are wealthy people from the inner city. The street opened today, and many big figures from the inner city came to cut the ribbon. All kinds of luxury cars were parked on the street and at the end of the alley. Fat old gentlemen, gorgeously dressed ladies, graceful ladies... It was like walking on a red carpet, and it also allowed people from the outer city like Su Lun to see what the rich people in the inner city look like. .

Salted fish like Su Lun and Kai are naturally not qualified to show their faces on stage.

The good-looking ones went to the infield to hold court. They wore leather jackets, had tattoos, looked crooked, and looked fierce. They were afraid of scaring the nobles and ladies, so they all stood on the outside and were responsible for safety. .

Su Lun, with his smoky bald head, is naturally outside.

He also enjoyed his leisure time.

Kayi and a group of cross captains were squatting aside chatting and chatting, and at this moment, a long, high-end white car with angel wings on its body suddenly drove up in front of the red carpet.

I don’t know who screamed: "Look, there is... a beautiful woman!"

The ears of the veterans stood up when they heard the beauty, and they all stretched their necks and looked towards the red carpet.

Then, I watched a cold and charming woman wearing a pure black dress that looked like quicksand get out of the car.

Su Lun glanced at it, and naturally recognized this person as the patron of the Cross Society, Mrs. Philo.

The level of the Cross Captains is not high enough, and most of them don’t know who the financial backers are behind the Cross. Even those who have heard the name have never seen it.

Kai on the side took a look, and his eyes immediately straightened. He suppressed the restlessness in his heart and explained calmly: "Don't make a fuss. If you disturb Mrs. Philo, the president will definitely kick the butts of you guys."

Someone said in surprise: "That is the legendary Mrs. Philo? Have you seen her before, Kai?"

Kayi said: "Well, I did receive a personal interview from that lady before. Forget it, it's not worth mentioning..."

That tantalizing tone, coupled with that showy expression, simply deserves a beating.

"Cut~"

All the captains booed, but it did not affect their enthusiasm to see the beauty.

"My dear, this **** thing is so **** beautiful..."

"Hey...another one got out of the car. Kai, look who is the little beauty next to Mrs. Philo?"

"I don't know him, but I think he is the daughter of some big family."

"Isn't she Mrs. Philo's daughter?"

"Shit! Where did that lady get such a big daughter?"

"..."

The veterans started all kinds of brain-filling gossip.

The gossipy love stories of the great men in the inner city are the best things to talk about after dinner in the outer city.

Suellen listened silently, because he had already recognized the person who was following Mrs. Philo.

Although her face was covered with a black gauze, Su Lun could still recognize her from her beautiful black hair. Isn’t it that girl Reina?

Why would a daughter of a top family come to such an occasion?

But seeing that Philo and Reina were still able to go out of the city to cut the ribbon, I thought that the civil strife in the Reyes family had almost subsided.

He didn't think much about it.

.......

The protagonists are all present, and then comes the boring ribbon-cutting process.

A group of big bosses from the inner city jointly cut the ribbon and delivered speeches.

However, Mrs. Philo was very low-key. Except for showing her face when getting off the car, no one was seen behind her.

Su Lun looked a little bored, leaning on the street lamppost, playing with the skill of flipping coins with his fingers, from the palm to the back of the hand, and from the back of the hand to the palm...

Suddenly, he felt someone's eyes looking at him from behind, and the coin in his hand froze slightly.

But after hearing the familiar footsteps, he didn't take it to heart.

The next second, Su Lun felt his arms sinking into softness, and a warm body hugged his shoulders boldly. Before seeing anyone, I could already hear the familiar eldest sister's tone, "Hey, Su Lun, where have you been during this time? The casino didn't see you coming, and I even asked you to make an appointment with a gambling partner. You kid doesn’t show up."

When Su Lun heard the footsteps, he knew it was Senjo. He smiled and greeted: "Sister Senjo."

At a glance, Qiantiao was dressed quite formally, probably because there was a ribbon-cutting today. She is wearing a fitted blue and white kimono, her hair is tied high, and her arms are not exposed. She is really kind-hearted.

Qianjou asked again: "Where's Kai boy?"

Su Lun spread his hands and said, "I don't know, I think I went to watch the fun with the captains."

Qianjo patted Su Lun on the shoulder and said: "I have already told the president that you and Kai will come to Norton Street from now on. You will be mine from now on!"

Su Lun thought it didn't matter: "Oh..."

Qian Jiao looked around in the crowd but couldn't find Kai. The dog took Su Lun by the shoulders and led him out, saying: "Let's go to the hot spring. I'll show you some people by the way."

"Ah? Today's ribbon cutting, sister Qianjo, don't you want to watch the show?"

Su Lun felt unreliable.

The restaurant on Norton Street is now open for business. Do you want to go for a bath?

Qianjou looked troubled, "There are too many chores in the field today, let the captains do it."

"..."

Su Lun thought it would be a good idea to let the shopkeeper go.

It’s because there are so many things to do in opening a business that we need you to take care of things.

At this time, Kai came out of nowhere and said hello from a distance: "Sister Senjo!"

"Looking at you."

Qianjou greeted Kai, "Let's go to Akun's Hot Spring Room! Sister, please take a bath!"

Kayi's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Okay!"

Qiantiao's invitation was naturally something he couldn't refuse. Although Su Lun wanted to go back to study the living corpses, he had no choice but to go along.

.......

After taking a dip in the soup, I feel refreshed.

Later in the middle of the night, Su Lun accompanied Qian Jiao to the newly opened arena.

The new venue has opened, and this gambling-addicted young woman is excited to try her luck.

Because it was the first day of opening, very powerful professional gladiators came. The gladiatorial match was exciting, and Su Lun also gained a wave of good experience.

He stayed in Norton Street all night and originally planned to go back early the next morning.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he came out of the gambling stall early in the morning, Kai approached him and said that the cadres had arranged for them to **** a batch of goods to the inner city.

When I heard it later, it turned out that a new place was opening and the Cross Captains were very busy.

It seemed that they were the only two people on Green Street who had nothing to do. Seeing that they were idle, the cadres arranged for them to be escorted.

It's not a special mission, it's just to follow the convoy and deliver a batch of valuable things to the inner city.

The Cross Society has its own hunting group, so the gang warehouse will also accumulate a lot of high-level curse materials, relics and antiques collected from outside the city.

There is no use keeping these things in the outer city, and they cannot be sold at a good price. Therefore, it will be sent to the inner city every once in a while and handed over to the chamber of commerce under the sponsor for processing.

With the sponsor's pass, there is no need to enter the city to verify the identity. This is a rare opportunity for gangsters to enter the inner city.

The veterans of the Cross love this mission.

This is a rare opportunity to gain experience.

Kai also looked very excited.

...........

In the afternoon, Su Lun and Kai came to the warehouse of the Hesse Building, the headquarters of the Cross.

Kayi checked the things loaded in the car, signed the departure list, and was ready to leave.

Standard **** team, three vehicles.

A captain with nine people, and two truck drivers.

It is exactly the same as the **** team of the Steam Party that Su Lun and I intercepted a few days ago.

Because they had just studied in detail how to rob the transport team before, Su Lun and Kai always felt strange in their hearts, so they did not sit in the lead and tail cars.

Kayi drove the driver into the car, then drove the truck himself, walking with Su Lun in the middle of the transport team.

I am afraid that there may be some secret communication between the Cross Society and the inner city, leading to some inexplicable interceptions. Before getting on the truck, Su Lun also deliberately observed that the truck loading this time was not a special explosion-proof truck, and the cargo was normal cargo.

After getting in the car, the two looked at each other and smiled.

But I thought it was too much to worry about. After all, there were **** missions several times a year, and they would be intercepted and killed by chance.

.......

They set off from the southern city and drove for half an hour before approaching the inner city wall, which was several times more spectacular than the outer city wall.

Su Lun peeled off some memories and had some vague impressions of the structure of the inner city.

Seeing the increasingly towering city wall in the distance, some scenes in my memory overlapped.

The general layout of the inner city is like a piece of cake, evenly divided into eight parts, namely urban areas 1 to 8. In the center of the inner city is a black tower with no top visible, like a candle on a cake.

At the foot of the city wall, a super chimney hundreds of meters high is always emitting white smoke. It is a super steam boiler that runs the entire city.

The inner city wall is about two hundred meters long, but the buildings inside are even taller.

The convoy is getting closer and closer to the inner city, and the city wall becomes more and more real in the field of vision.

The wall in front of them has white spray paint with a huge number "5" marked on it.

Under the city wall is the fifth city gate, and behind it corresponds to the fifth city area of ​​the inner city.

Kayi looked excited. He pointed at the super high-rise buildings that were taller than the city walls, as if introducing them, but also exclaiming: "Hey, brother, look, that's the famous 'Sky Garden' in the inner city! Look! Have you seen the colorful ribbon in the sky? Hehe... That's the legendary rainbow. It's a strange sight that can't be seen anywhere else."

"Yeah."

Su Lun has very good eyesight, and he has actually seen it a long time ago.

The lights in the inner city are like sunshine, giving people a very bright feeling.

It's like adding a light filter to those buildings, clean and transparent.

You can see the green upper floors of the inner city buildings from a distance, and white waterfalls flowing down from the tops of those buildings, and rainbows hanging between the buildings...

In the rooftop garden with green plants of yellow and orange fruits, you can also see a lady in white leaning on the railing to look at the scenery, the wind blowing her skirt...

High-altitude swimming pool, lush green roof plants, building glass as blue as the sea... Some blurry figures can be seen walking on the glass corridor, talking and laughing in twos and threes...

The buildings in the inner city are beautiful and full of technology; the outer city is like a post-apocalyptic wasteland, full of darkness and filth.

Separated by a wall, it seems like two worlds.

After Kai's excitement, his tone suddenly became sad, "Hey, brother. To be honest, I have never been to the inner city in my life..."

Su Lun smiled: "I haven't been there either."

"Haha, this time we can go and gain some knowledge."

As he spoke, Kai's clear eyes reflected the shadow of the huge city, and also revealed his longing for beauty.

Being able to visit the inner city is already an out-of-reach dream for many people from outer cities.

Kayi suddenly felt sad, "I am an orphan who came out of Tongzilou. I have no father or mother. I know nothing except fighting and killing. I heard that the children in the inner city will learn musical instruments and business from an early age. I will go to college to learn knowledge... When I grow up, I can be a lawyer, a dentist, a teacher..."

Having said this, Kai chuckled like he was mocking himself, "Haha..."

Thinking about it, he slowly said: "Brother, you know... I have imagined before that the best life I can get for myself is that I can be lucky enough to advance to the second level in the future, and then give it to my heart. A certain big boss in the city works as a bodyguard...Haha, isn’t it very promising?"

After hearing this, Su Lun glanced at him.

The gang leader, who could still be called a boy at this age, suddenly had light in his eyes, glittering and translucent.

"Everyone in the gang said that I was brave and that I would be very successful in the future..."

Kayi had a smile on his face, but as he spoke, he stopped laughing, "Actually, I'm not afraid of you laughing. Sometimes I'm also timid. Countless nights, I would have nightmares about fighting and killing. I woke up with a cold sweat. I touched my still beating heart, and it took me a long time to realize that I was still alive..."

Su Lun listened quietly, becoming a silent audience for a while.

His gaze gradually deepened as he looked at the city.

.......

The journey was uneventful.

Both Su Lun breathed a sigh of relief.

The truck drove to the foot of the city wall, like a mouse under the elephant.

Because they had special passes, they did not undergo inspection and successfully entered the huge steel gate.

At this time, there was no trace of sadness on Kai's face, and his heartless smile returned.

As he neared his destination, Kai suddenly thought of something and said to Su Lun: "I'll tell you a secret quietly. Don't tell anyone else."

Su Lun raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Kayi said mysteriously: "Before departure, the smoker boss told me that he would introduce me to a big shot in the inner city this time. Maybe I would have a chance to enter the inner city in advance."

"Smoker Boss?"

When Su Lun heard this, some thoughts flashed through his mind, and his brows suddenly wrinkled.

"Yes! The smoker boss said that when I enter the city, the big shot will send someone to contact me."

Kayi nodded and said with a bright smile: "Let me tell you, if I become rich, I will protect you! Hahahaha..."

Su Lun looked slightly startled, always feeling that something was wrong, and asked: "You mean... the smoker boss asked you to keep it a secret?"

"Yes."

Kayi said: "He originally asked me not to tell anyone, but I think we are brothers and you will definitely keep my secret."

Why is confidentiality needed?

Introducing the sponsor is not a shameful thing.

Out of instinctive alertness, Su Lun asked again: "How did that person contact you?"

Kai didn't realize there was any problem and replied: "I don't know either. But the smoker boss said that the person will contact me if he has a way..."
