Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 357 High-end Place

Regarding Jiang Baimian's proposal, Shang Jianyao shook his head:

"What I know, he will know too."

Jiang Baimian immediately smiled bitterly and said:

“This is really troublesome.

"A person's most difficult enemy is indeed himself."

"I'll observe for a while longer." Shang Jianyao was not discouraged.

At this time, Gnawa expressed his thoughts based on the analysis results:

"This is supposed to be a reflection of a split personality disorder.

"Can we use corresponding drugs and auxiliary treatment to directly promote the integration of you and that you?"

"Uh..." Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and others were a little stunned.

Theoretically speaking, Gnawa's plan makes some sense and is a method derived from a medical perspective.

But the problem is that this is too scientific, and it is at the two extremes of the spiritual world and consciousness space that are not very scientific. It is quite absurd to put them together.

After being silent for several seconds, Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

"It's an idea, at least it's logically feasible."

"But I'm worried that the other eight of me will disappear." Shang Jianyao looked serious, as if he was a companion who couldn't be lost.

"Let's take a look again. There's no rush. Anyway, you have already seen yourself in the spiritual world faster than most awakened people." Jiang Baimian stretched his body, turned over and got out of bed and said, "Go out for a walk and find something to eat. of."

At night, they turned on the radio transceiver as usual to see if the company had any new arrangements.

At 8:06, a telegram came in, originating from Lehman.

This arms dealer from "United Industries" has arrived at the Prime City.

Jiang Baimian responded simply:

"Make an appointment to meet somewhere."

Not long after, Lehman responded with a telegram:

"Tomorrow at 10 o'clock in the morning, No. 99 Shixiang Street, Red Giant Wolf District, old-time Internet cafe, machine No. 14 reserved by Mr. Heinrich."

…………

No. 99, Shixiang Street, Hongjulang District, is a building left over from the old world, with a height of forty or fifty stories.

It has been restored many times, and the glass curtain wall is clean and reflects the sunlight, giving it an indescribable beauty.

"It's like returning to the ruins of Swamp No. 1." Long Yuehong said sincerely.

It is a silhouette of an era and a representation of the past of mankind.

Jiang Baimian nodded slightly and said:

"These streets in the Red Giant Wolf District are the most like the old world."

While talking, the five people from the "Old Tune Group" walked to the "Old Era Internet Cafe" on the first floor.

Four security guards with pistols and short sticks were guarding the entrance of the Internet cafe. As soon as they saw Shang Jianyao and others, they stretched out their hands to signal them to stop.

"In order to protect the safety of customers, the robot must stay outside." One of the security personnel said.

Another security guard added:

"Most of our guests have status and take their own safety very seriously."

"Okay." Jiang Baimian did not insist, and turned to look at Gnawa, "Wait for us in the lobby rest area."

The reason why she thinks there is no problem is that robots are often associated with heavy firepower, and they are bound to be blocked when visiting others or entering or leaving certain occasions. Previously, Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao went to convince Terence. Taking this issue into consideration, Gnawa was asked to act as a team with Bai Chen and Long Yuehong, instead of following the two of them to add an insurance policy.

This is not discrimination, but vigilance.

Of course, when you bring a robot with you, others will often give you a little more respect.

Gennava was silent for two seconds and said:

"OK."

After arranging him, Shang Jianyao, Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen walked towards the door.

The door then opened, sensing the approach of the guest.

Standing inside the door was a young man in a white shirt and red tie. He pressed his hand on his chest, bent down and saluted, and asked with a warm smile:

"Do any of you have reservations? Is this your first time here?"

"Yes, Mr. Heinrich ordered it." As Jiang Baimian spoke, he looked around and took in the environment at the entrance of the Internet cafe in the old era.

The bold use of gold, no skimping on stone, and statues everywhere make it look like a high-end place as rumored.

The young man took out a palm-sized electronic product, clicked it a few times quickly, and said with an unchanging smile:

"Mr. Heinrich did have a reservation for machine No. 14, but he only ordered one."

"Others arranged the machines around." Jiang Baimian said simply.

"Each machine has one Ole per hour." The young man said with a smile.

Damn it, why don’t you grab it? Is this too expensive? Long Yuehong almost blurted out.

They stayed in a hotel, and each room cost only one Ole per night.

Without giving Shang Jianyao a chance to speak, Jiang Baimian nodded:

"good."

She immediately smiled and asked:

"We came from Weedao City. Your Internet cafe seems different from the Internet cafes there?"

The young man bent down slightly in a please gesture and explained with a smile:

“It’s different, completely different.

"In other places, machines are retrieved from the ruins, pieced together and repaired. If they break several times a day, they are not worthy of their origin. Here, all computers come from the 'mechanical paradise', they are stable, fast and smooth. , can definitely give you the best experience.

"Moreover, other places only have local area networks, and only a few games and other old-world entertainment materials. It is very poor. They mostly practice the application of firearms in a virtual way. We are different. The network of the 'First City' itself is Together, it also stocks a large amount of old world entertainment materials and various useful programs to allow you to get the best enjoyment.

“It can be said that this is an aristocratic level of enjoyment and a good place for middle and high-level people to relax and gather.

"Many aristocratic children find it boring to play computer games at home, so they often come to our place..."

Isn't this similar to the various high-end places mentioned in old era materials? But when it is associated with an Internet cafe, there is something, something that makes people want to laugh... Jiang Baimian closed his mouth and kept smiling and listening.

If I were not from the management of "Pangu Biology", I would often be able to surf the Internet, play computer games, and have access to all kinds of old-world information. Later, I would go to Tarnan and see the worthlessness of electronic products there, and see the original appearance of the Internet cafe. , she might be frightened at this moment.

"I can't wait." Shang Jianyao expressed his opinion.

What impressed him was undoubtedly the wealth of old world entertainment material.

The waiter led the four members of the "Old Tune Group" deeper into the Internet cafe, while lowering his voice and continued to introduce:

"When you need to play music, remember to wear headphones. Our guests here all have status and have very high requirements for the environment...

"Here, you can also buy all kinds of rare things, such as red wine, cola, chocolate, coffee, tea, etc., etc...

"If you stay until meal time and have played for more than three hours, we will give each person a special risotto, which is different every day, including local flavors of tomato sauce risotto, mushroom and chicken risotto, and Youyuan Seafood risotto at 'Linhai Alliance'...

"If you get tired from playing, we have a free bathroom and rest room upstairs..."

Shang Jianyao swallowed his saliva without any concealment.

At this time, Jiang Baimian had already scanned the environment inside the Internet cafe.

There is a certain degree of isolation between each location, with many green plants and a quiet atmosphere.

Soon, they arrived near Machine No. 14.

Unlike other computers, this machine has a telephone next to it.

"This is for those customers who need to make calls. There are also machines at the service desk and several other machines." The waiter started computers No. 14 to 17 in sequence.

Jiang Baimian sat down in front of the computer No. 14 without hesitation. Shang Jianyao was next to her and chose No. 15. Bai Chen and Long Yuehong followed in turn.

After the waiter left, Jiang Baimian moved the mouse and clicked quickly for a while.

She then laughed and said:

"The network coverage in the original city is very small, there are not many people, and there is no interesting and valuable content..."

People in Internet cafes are either watching old world dramas and novels, or playing games online.

Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong, and Bai Chen were still relatively reserved and did not join the group immediately. They waited patiently until 10 o'clock.

Jingle Bell!

The phone next to machine No. 14 rang as expected by Jiang Baimian.

Jiang Baimian picked up the phone and asked with a smile:

"Mr. Lehman?"

She spoke in gray dialect.

The same but poor language came from the other end of the phone:

"right.

"Have you collected the materials needed for the transaction?"

Jiang Baimian said calmly:

"Not yet. We have just arrived at the Prime City. Give us another two weeks."

"Okay." Lehman did not refuse.

Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao and then said:

"Have you ever been to Red Stone Collection later?"

"No. To me, that's not a nice place. I might just send an assistant there in the future." Lehman sighed.

Jiang Baimian said immediately:

"We went there again and met Lars."

There was silence on the other end of the phone, except for the sound of breathing becoming a little clearer.

Jiang Baimian continued:

"He did not betray you. DiMarco is a powerful awakener who controlled him with some ability."

"Really? How is he now?" Lehman asked eagerly.

He unconsciously switched to Honghe dialect.

Jiang Baimian started with a sigh:

"Unfortunately, he became a casualty during the rebellion of the residents of the 'Underground Ark' against Di Marco's tyranny."

There was silence on the other end of the phone again.

"We buried him in the cemetery behind the vigilance church, and there was a stone tablet." Jiang Baimian finished the story by himself.

After dozens of seconds, Lehman slowly spoke:

"Thank you, this news is priceless to me."

His nasal voice was much heavier than before.

Hey, Jiang Baimian sighed silently

At this moment, Lehman hurriedly added:

“But in subsequent transactions, I will give you a discount of up to 30%.

"I still have a lot of people to support."

"..." Jiang Baimian was speechless.
