Chapter 298 I'm Not a Scumbag

One night passed.

This was the first time that Chen Ke had spent a whole night so peacefully since he came to this world.

The ventilation fan in the basement sucked away the indoor air, and the constant temperature air conditioner kept the temperature at a comfortable 24 degrees. He lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, imagining the busy scene of the fishery above his head.

Lucina's arms were wrapped around Chen Ke's neck. She was still sleeping, snoring softly, like a tigress who had not yet awakened, burying her head under Chen Ke's armpit.

Chen Ke carefully removed Lucina's arm from his neck, gently stuffed it into the quilt, and then reached for the mobile phone beside the bed. It was already 9 o'clock in the morning.

He had no need for sleep. He kept his eyes open all night, thinking about Norton City and Wang Ailin.

Wang Ailin's abnormal reaction on the other end of the phone made Chen Ke very concerned, but since she was Diana's acquaintance, there would be no problem. It was just that Chen Ke was very worried that the other party would get into trouble because of studying the strange ashes.

After all, the year 2006 itself was not normal.

Thinking about it now, Chen Ke still couldn't explain what the situation was at that time. Did he travel to a certain future? Or a certain past?

At the same time, he recalled the woman named Eliza he met before. The other party's capable temperament and words left a deep impression on him.

He felt that more and more strange people began to appear around him, stringing together his previous experiences.

Li Moyang, Eliza, the woman at the foundation, the professor, Asra, the company... and the hallucination last night.

It seemed that something was destined to happen in the near future, and unfortunately, he was in it.

"I am Alpha... I am Omega... Did I win this time?" Chen Ke muttered to himself, not understanding the meaning of these words.

Will there be a last time and a next time...?

Life cannot be repeated. Time is like a river rolling forward. One wrong move may lead to a complete loss. An unsatisfactory life is most likely due to the root of evil buried in youth.

There is no regret medicine in life, don't think you can beat the sky...

If there is any place to explain these things to Chen Ke, there may be no other choice except the Psychic Research Institute.

Last night, Chen Ke told Lucina that he was going to Norton City, and used the excuse of meeting a potential buyer of the Green Holy Diamond as an excuse. Lucina originally wanted to go with him, but was persuaded by Chen Ke.

Norton City is the central city of the United Federation's capital, and it can also be said to be the most prosperous place in the world. Unlike the City of Opportunity, Norton City is the representative of the so-called "Federal Dream". There are opportunities everywhere, and it is a veritable city of opportunity.

It takes about 4 hours to fly from the City of Opportunity, and the one-way economy class fare is 380 Union Coins. The headache is that if you want to take a plane, Chen Ke can't bring guns and holy objects...

In addition to metal detectors, the customs, airports, subway stations and other public facilities in this world also have special holy object detectors. Carrying holy diamonds through the security gate will be intercepted. This is to prevent the smuggling and theft of holy objects. The management bureau is quite strict.

Moreover, anyone with psychic powers can also have the psychic elements stored in his spinal cord detected by special devices, just like the device held by Priskin, which is specifically designed to guard against psychic spies sent by other countries.

If you don't use public transportation to go to Norton City, it may take 12 hours to drive on Interstate 178... Of course, Chen Ke doesn't need to sleep, so driving all night is nothing.

But he doesn't have a car, and he doesn't know which way to take to bypass the interstate highway checkpoint. After all, the movement of holy objects and psychics in this world is very closely monitored.

Norton City must be visited, and it must be visited... Sam, Louis and Rama are still on the verge of death, and of course, Chen Ke has not forgotten the commission given to him by Li Moyang.

If everything goes well, he will be back in about two days. After all, this trip is just to meet Wang Ailin and see if there is any progress in her research. As long as nothing unexpected happens...

"See if Pihom has any way."

Chen Ke thought so, and tiptoed out of the quilt. There was a pile of clothes scattered on the floor beside the bed. He frowned. This set of clothes was not his own, but was put together casually after the legendary suit was burned clean by Angele.

He touched the claw marks on his back and shook his head, put on the clothes to cover the bitten part on his collarbone, and then threw Lucina's red skirt on the chair beside him.

Chen Ke washed and dressed neatly, put the 67-type pistol into his waistband, checked the holy diamond in his wallet, and got up and walked towards the door after getting ready.

He looked back at Lucina. It seemed that she had to sleep for a while before she could recover.

Walking out of the basement, the fishery had already started to get busy, and Heinard was sitting at the door of the fishery unexpectedly.

"Heinard..." Chen Ke walked to Heinard and said softly.

"You finally woke up. I've been waiting for a long time. When I was young, I was much more self-disciplined than you." Heinard said in a low voice.

"In fact, she is still here..." Chen Ke said.

"Oh... So, do you want to leave without saying goodbye?" Heinard smiled and glanced at Chen Ke.

"No, no... Of course not. Um... I want to go to the gun store to discuss something with Pihom." Chen Ke explained.

"I know, it's about the little stone. Last night you said you knew a potential buyer? And he's from the Psychic Research Institute?" Heinard got straight to the point.

"Yes, I'm going to Norton City to meet her. This stone doesn't have any properties, and she's a little curious..." Chen Ke said.

"Well... is it her? Not him?" Heinard's focus was somewhat unexpected.

"Yes, it's a female doctor... I don't know if she will buy it in the end..." Chen Ke explained.

"Are you going alone?" Heinard asked.

"Yes, she is a very cautious person, and I don't want her to be scared by new faces." Chen Ke said.

"How do you plan to go, Chen Ke? Take a plane?" Heinard asked knowingly, as if he had seen through everything.

"This is exactly what's bothering me. You usually..." Chen Ke asked.

"I have a way, Chen Ke. I know the captain of a fishing boat. He can take you from the inland sea to the Hudson River, all the way down the river, and send you to Norton City by water." Heinard said.

"The captain of the fishing boat... I know what you mean..." Chen Ke laughed.

The captain Heinard knew must be engaged in smuggling holy objects. Although Heinard is no longer in this business, he still has connections.

"You can disguise yourself as a crew member and get out of the dock. And you can also take all your equipment with you." Heinard said proudly.

"Thank you, Heinard, I'm having a headache about this matter." Chen Ke said.

"When did you make an appointment with her?" Heinard asked.

"As soon as possible, if possible, we can leave today." Chen Ke said.

"I'll arrange it... You go to the gun store to find Pihom first, he really wants to hear what you think of this buyer." Heinard took out his mobile phone.

"Well..." Chen Ke nodded.

At this time, Heinard took out a car key and handed it to Chen Ke. Chen Ke recognized that it was the key to Lucina's muscle car.

"It's faster to drive than to walk." Heinard smiled.

Chen Ke responded and turned to the red muscle car parked across the street.

"By the way, Chen Ke, you know what I want to tell you... but I think it's better not to say it out loud." Heinard said.

Chen Ke looked back at Heinard and understood what he meant.

Although Lucina has low emotional intelligence, can't speak, handles some things in a way that makes people hate her, behaves rudely, swears, and has done everything from murder to robbery...

But she never lies, actively expresses her love in a clumsy and rude way, and perseveres in her choices...

"I'm not a scumbag, Heinard." Chen Ke smiled.

Heinard nodded with satisfaction.
