Chapter 521 Chapter 518 No Ambush

"We probably encountered other people, unrelated to our transport convoy. Zhuang Xuteng told others what happened at the toll station, and everyone basically agreed with this conclusion. "Less than ten people came to rob our more than 30 escorts. No matter how hard you think, it is impossible for your team to succeed. It all makes sense if their target was just the black van. "

Affected by the gunfight, all the staff at the toll booth ran away. The entire convoy passed directly through the checkpoint and headed to the next stop without stopping. Zhuang Xuteng also drove to follow and blended in with the large army. Scaranci jumped back into his original vehicle when the convoy came over. He didn't fire a single shot, so naturally he didn't have to pay Zhuang Xuteng a penny. If you calculate it like this, Zhuang Xuteng lost the money for three shock grenades, as well as the money for white beast to repaint and repair the car...

The captain of the convoy did not mention reimbursement of expenses, which seemed a bit unreasonable. Zhuang Xuteng came to the team to join the team, and he didn't take a penny from them. They would also help when they were in danger. This had already given the team an old man, a car that could be used for duty, and the top thugs among the mercenaries. . Then, the team arranged things for Zhuang Xuteng to do and never mentioned the cost. Alas, I don’t know if this is because of the strict rules of the Moat Company or because the captain is incompetent. Maybe Moat's style is that after forming a team, they just clock in and go to work every day, while mercenaries always have to work hard to become comrades and brothers after forming a team.

"Let's get ready to leave!" Zhuang Xuteng told the captain, and without waiting for his consent, he left the convoy, took a side road around the city, and headed towards the other side of the Constitutional Capital City. "Let's go to the airport first and change into a car with a local license plate there to facilitate our movement. I've checked and found that several car rental companies have operations at the airport. It's safer this way."

"I haven't been back for a long time, and this place is still the same as I remember." Dr. Bukele looked at the street scene outside with tears in his eyes. "This dilapidated road, I used to drive here when I came back from the airport. It is full of potholes. It has not been repaired for so many years."

"In fact, there are not many years, you can count them on one hand." Zhuang Xuteng said: "From now on, you must work hard to control your emotions, focus on the actual situation, and don't think randomly or arouse your emotions. Once you fall into emotions , people tend to lose control, and most dangerous actions occur under such circumstances.”

"This is your experience? What should you do?"

"One of the easiest ways to do this is to shift and focus your attention. You can recite the license plate number, or multiply the license plate numbers in your head. When you focus on memory and calculation, the worst that can happen is that your eyes will be straight and your mouth will be blank. Talking about it makes you look like a fool, but it won't make people feel suspicious or dangerous. In addition, you can also describe each person's appearance, clothing, accessories, and belongings in your mind, even if you act lustfully. It’s actually better than losing control of your emotions.”

"Why is this happening?"

"People are lazy, especially when using their brains. Once an observer puts a clear label on you, he will consciously or unconsciously relax his exploration of you and directly replace everything about you with the label. Fools and perverts That’s the case with class labels. They are much safer than ‘mysterious people’ and ‘unknown actors’, which can arouse curiosity and thus attract attention. Do you understand?”

"It makes sense. It turns out you have studied human behavior."

"No, I haven't studied that thing. The techniques just now are just summarized by predecessors based on camouflage, stealth and ambush activities. The knowledge in books is also a summary. In fact, the birthplace of this knowledge is real action." Zhuang Xuteng Shaking his head, he said: "You are not a mercenary, and it is meaningless for me to tell you this. You are going back to see your relatives this time. It is very likely that this is your last chance, and this opportunity can give you an observation window." I'm afraid it won't last long. You need to cheer up, concentrate, and cherish every second. It will help."

When it comes to going back to see his family, Dr. Bukele's eyes are bright and his whole body can gather strength. His physical and mental state is much better than when he was in Peicheng. Observed with the Eye of Shadow, Dr. Booker's resentment has not diminished, but its degree of integration with the body is declining, and the side effects and resentment have begun to show a tendency to separate from each other.

He refrained from using safety blue and only used it four times in the 24 hours after getting in the car, which was half the usual number. In the past, with half the dosage, Dr. Booker would have suffered from itching and discomfort all over the body, confusion, and loss. He could not listen to what others said, and would only know how to eat and inhale quickly. Judging from his various performances, people's thoughts, beliefs and subconsciousness are closely related to the mechanism of safety blue, much like the relationship between faith and magic.

Everyone thinks that safe blue can relax people, relieve fatigue, and give people a happy mood. In addition to the usual psychotropic effects of blue crystal products, the overwhelming advertising also deeply implants this idea into the minds of every user, giving them a firm idea similar to belief.

In the age of gods, the main way of preaching was various religious ceremonies held by priests, including reading classics, holding masses, public speeches, etc. Modern advertisements are much more capable of instilling information through images and sounds than religious ceremonies. Whether it is appearance, frequency, or the speed of innovation, they have fully utilized the powerful production capacity of modern industry. In the past, we had to tell stories, understand the meaning through stories, and then form thoughts. Now, we just stuff the concepts into our heads. Most people nowadays believe that safety blue is a good thing, and this belief is much firmer than the priest saying "Your injury will heal soon."

What does Dr. Booker think when using safety blue? Probably "This can relieve my pain"... Unfortunately, he knows very well that the essence of pain is that he can't see his relatives again. Safety blue can't solve the problem, so safety blue starts to solve him, making him weak and weak. Now he has hope again and has the opportunity to see his relatives again. No need for safety blue, the pain is relieved by itself, and the situation has reversed.

"Don't be nervous, let's take it step by step. I've been fine for the past two weeks and I've been with you completely, so don't worry." Zhuang Xuteng put his hand on the doctor's shoulder, then activated the resentful spirit array and tried to absorb the resentment from him. The resentment after loosening can indeed be absorbed, and its concentration is very high and the quantity is large, which can well increase Zhuang Xuteng's resentment stock.

Dr. Booker felt strength, warmth and support from Zhuang Xuteng's hand, and cheered up. "I think my situation is much better. I will continue to control the intake of safety blue and maintain a normal state. If I can see them, I don't want them to see the appearance of a drug addict."

"Well, they probably won't recognize you. You've changed this face, have you forgotten?"

The doctor raised his hand, touched his cheek, and smiled bitterly: "I'm really not in a good state. I even forgot such an important thing."

Being able to realize the problem means there is a chance to solve it, and they still have time. Zhuang Xuteng came to the airport and rented a car from a car rental company. He asked the doctor to wait in the armored car in the parking lot, then drove the rented car out for a circle, and changed to another one when he came back.

The latest car was stolen. It is the same model as the car of the rental company, and then the license plate of the rental company was replaced. These rental companies basically hide tracking and positioning devices in their own vehicles, and the hiding places are different, each one is harder to find and remove. Zhuang Xuteng does not want to drive a car with a tracker on the street, so he uses the real rental car license plate plus other vehicles of the same model, which is a relatively safer combination.

If someone comes to check, he has complete procedures to prove that he is a normal car rental user. In general, it is enough to check the license plate, and the engine number will not be checked. If a policeman really wants to do that, Zhuang Xuteng will use the excuse that he has urgent matters and "Mr. Euro's suggestion" should be able to make the police accommodating.

"Stay here first. I want to check out the situation nearby. It should take two or three days of investigation. During this period, don't go out and concentrate on adjusting your condition. If your body allows, you can exercise a little to make your face ruddy, at least like an ordinary healthy old man."

The people Dr. Buckler wants to see most are his grandson and granddaughter. The two little guys are two years apart in age and attend the same elementary school. They have not graduated yet. If they are lucky, they will have the opportunity to see the two children and their families at the school gate.

On the first day, Zhuang Xuteng drove past the school gate during rush hour. Like everyone else, he was stuck in traffic. He rolled down the window, looked around, cursed, and took a look at the surrounding terrain. In the afternoon, when school was over, he was stuck again from another direction. This time he did not open the window and confirmed the terrain again. That night, he took advantage of the cover of night, jumped from several buildings, and began to lurk on the roof opposite the school.

Familiar long-term hiding, familiar invisibility cloak plus thousand-eye cloak. He was completely integrated with the environment, and there was no shadow signal. In addition to his already superb hiding skills, if he could still be found, he could only accept his fate.

Time passed by, the sky gradually brightened, and people began to appear in the school. He slightly opened a gap in the invisibility cloak to reveal the Eye of Kaho, and used the zoom function to look at the school gate from a distance.

Start the scanning mode, the Eye of Kaho divides the visual range into 10,000 small squares, and scans and records them in turn. It has to be said that the company's products are good. Using the implant, it can automatically find suspicious points, which is better than Zhuang Xuteng's super visual memory. The Eye of Kaho transmits the information obtained to the flat-headed brother, uses its computing power to analyze, and then finds "secret changes" and "long-term suspicious stays".

Zhuang Xuteng does not rely entirely on the Eye of Kaho. He also uses another native eye of his own to observe and analyze. He assumed that the company still wanted to catch Dr. Booker and would use his relatives and children to set up an ambush, but this ambush could not be carried out for several years, so there would be two solutions: use surveillance cameras, or send "alarm men" to stay next to the bait.

The method of cracking is actually not complicated, just observe more and make comparisons. Zhuang Xuteng slowly scanned, searched and recorded the surveillance cameras near the school gate, and compared their number, type, and operation mode with the cameras at several intersections and similar environments at 200 meters, 500 meters, and 2000 meters nearby.

The same goes for observing the people around your children. Whether their movements and demeanor are different: whether they have been trained in combat will be reflected in their standing and walking postures; whether they pay too much attention to changes in the surrounding situation, whether their attention is completely focused on the children or spread to the surroundings, these can also be provided to Zhuang Xuteng information.

Dr. Bukele said that in his family, a nanny used to drive the children to school, and he also tried to describe the appearance of the nanny, driver and bodyguard. The doctor specifically explained: "In addition to working in the research institute, I also have thirteen patents, and I have found someone to set up a trust project to manage the operation and income of the patents. Some patents are very profitable, and I personally have no expenses, so My family lives a very prosperous life. Oh, my son and daughter also have careers, they are both managers, and their incomes are also good.”

But Zhuang Xuteng didn't see a pick-up vehicle that matched the description, so he couldn't find the two children. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, he would definitely not search for information about Dr. Bukele's family from the information network, and the doctor's description ability was average and not enough to make an impression on Zhuang Xuteng. Fortunately, he could use Flathead to record his morning school experience and play it back to the doctor.

After the school gate was closed, Zhuang Xuteng stayed on guard for another four hours, waiting for the sun to reach overhead and everyone's shadows were the smallest before sneaking out. He then spent an afternoon observing, recording and comparing the conditions of nearby surveillance equipment, and found that they were basically the same everywhere, and there were even relatively few at the school entrance. He returned to his residence with the suspicion of "Is there no additional surveillance?" and asked the doctor to let him view the captured images.

"The image magnification ability is really strong. Your eyeball implant is very good..." The doctor saw that he had seen the world and immediately grasped the key point. He watched the nearly forty-minute video of sending his children to school at one-third the speed, and finally found it near the end.

"At 33 minutes and 17 seconds, on the right side of the screen, two children are riding over on bicycles. It should be them - I look like them. Children grow very fast at this stage, and can grow six or seven centimeters in a year - you have a clearer picture Enlarge the picture?"

"My eyeballs are very good, but my personal affairs assistant is not good enough and cannot record so many ultra-high-definition images." Zhuang Xuteng would not reveal the true condition of the implant, so he told half-truths and half-falsehoods. In fact, his personal affairs assistant is almost the same as not. Not only is it a fairly primitive external version, but any additional functions are turned off and it only does data forwarding. Brother Pingtou is just a communication platform, not an intelligence analysis machine or monitoring recorder. The current panoramic view is the limit of its capabilities.

Brother Pingtou can't record it, but Zhuang Xuteng's brain can. He searched his memory based on the released images and found the faces of the two children. "I'll know who to look for next time." Zhuang Xuteng said, "I'll go to see the school the day after tomorrow. After I find them, I'll record the enlarged high-definition footage for you to identify."

The doctor was still anxious and asked: "Tomorrow is also a school day, won't you go?"

Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and said: "In addition to squatting in the school, I also did a lot of other investigation work. My implant needs to rest and cannot be moved tomorrow. And every time you sneak in and out, it is the most dangerous. Only use the best." It’s all about the condition. Don’t watch it just for this less than 40-minute video, I spent more than six hours lurking for it.”

"Thank you for your hard work." Dr. Bukele said, "I... I'll watch this video a few more times."

"Well, please calm down first. The situation observed today is relatively optimistic. It is initially judged that there are no monitors. I will look for them again. If this is the case, you may be able to get close to them and even say a few words."

There was light in Dr. Booker's eyes, and he had the strength to continue.
