Chapter 360 Fieldwork and the Organization's Background
In the second half of the night in Jiangcheng, when the late-night snack stalls were closing down one after another and the drunkards had gone home, Lin Yu took a taxi to the place Liangye mentioned - Tom's Supermarket in Jiangcheng City.
This is a large chain supermarket located in the outer ring of Jiangcheng. It is a typical foreign-funded Western-style large department store. From a distance, it looks almost as big as a stadium.
Of course the supermarket is not open at this time, but the trucks and staff who come to replenish the goods have already started working.
Lin Yu got off the taxi, looked around for a while, and found Liang Ye.
A week later, Liang Ye's injury was almost healed, but his left hand was still in a plaster cast.
He was also dressed in a very Korean style, with a baseball cap, leather jacket, wide-leg pants, and a cigarette dangling from his mouth. He was standing in the empty parking lot in front of the supermarket, leaning against a lamppost.
His demeanor and outfit are almost like a senior Korean cop who stepped out of a Korean police movie.
Lin Yu walked straight over, and Liang Ye also noticed Lin Yu's arrival. He pinched out the cigarette butt in his mouth with one hand and flicked it towards the trash can not far away.
Then, Liangye said: "Axi, you came very quickly..."
"You just finished the dungeon. It's hard work. Logically speaking, you should take a rest when you meet the 'divination master', but the matter is urgent..."
"Anyway, the two of us are going on field trips now."
As Liang Ye said this, Lin Yu was a little surprised.
"Why is it so sudden...and why me?"
At this moment, Lin Yu thought a lot.
Although Liangye is now nominally the captain of Jiangcheng's first team, he has just come to Jiangcheng to take up the post and his foundation is very shallow.
In addition, he may have been hospitalized for the past week, and he may not be familiar with his "team members".
Therefore, maybe he, a guy who just joined the "Order", is the most trustworthy.
But Liangye saw Lin Yu's thoughtful expression, heard his questions, and guessed his guess.
"I'm overthinking it. I'm not at odds with the members of Jiangcheng's 'Order' or anything... It's better to say that I was chosen to be the one to add to the trouble this time."
"ah?"
Lin Yu asked curiously.
"Your good friend Forpolo was seconded by the administrator of Haicheng, Gambler, to investigate a matter." Liangye took off his baseball cap and adjusted his wig, "Xiba, he asked you by name. Come to help, and your boy is also very popular with Li Hua, so Li Hua also agreed. "
"It's not so much that I take you on field trips...it's better to say that you are the protagonist this time, and I'm just your 'bodyguard' and 'assistant'."
Liang Ye said, Lin Yu was very surprised.
"You asked me by name...Forpolo and the gambler, so it seems that some kind of 'case' happened, right?"
Liangye snapped his fingers: "Smart, there was a very bad murder case of a 'player' in the East China Region."
"The deceased was a well-known high-end player, and the murderer also stole some very important [props]."
Hearing what Liangye said, Lin Yu had already started to have a headache: "It's really a troublesome thing. Do you know now who died, where he died, and what was lost?"
"The details haven't been sent yet," Liang Ye shrugged, "but I probably know some information."
"The deceased was 'Carrot', one of the founders of the 'Players Mutual Aid Association'. He was originally scheduled to participate in the 'auction' in Haicheng, and then he was found dead in a hotel in Haicheng."
"And the lost thing is some kind of very dangerous [prop]... According to what the boss said, if it is not handled well, the entire player circle may be shaken - maybe tens of thousands of people will die."
Lin Yu was stunned when he heard Liang Ye's words and realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Is it really appropriate for something of this level to go to just the two of us?"
He couldn't help but ask.
Liang Ye waved his hand: "It is precisely because the matter is so important that it cannot involve too many people... Of course, it will definitely be a great achievement if it is done well."
"Okay, let's go!"
Liang Ye said, patted Lin Yu, and led him towards the direction of the supermarket warehouse.
Lin Yu felt a little strange again.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute... Since the situation is so urgent, what are we doing in this supermarket now?"
"Shouldn't we rush to Haicheng immediately?"
Liang Ye waved his hand: "Don't worry, how can 'Order' just ask you to go out into the field without even giving you equipment?"
"Although if you go through the process, your set is not good enough, but I have used my authority to apply for it in advance for you... Not only that, but it is also a high-end product."
"Logically speaking, you should go to the old ship factory in the South District and the 'Order' headquarters in Jiangcheng to get it."
"But special things need to be done!"
Good night arrived in front of the warehouse, and a medium-sized logistics truck was parked in the shadows in the corner.
He patted the carriage opening casually.
"Captain of the Jiangcheng First Team, number Z-27010102, come to get something."
A very upright man jumped out of the cab. Although he was wearing a logistics uniform, judging from his actions, Lin Yu judged that he should be a soldier.
In other words, he had served in the military for a long time.
He didn't speak, nodded slightly to Liang Ye, walked quickly to the cargo compartment, opened the cargo compartment, and pulled out a cardboard box from inside.
"This is a 'Level 2' [Prop Integration Set], please check it with the captain."
The other party handed the logistics carton with the Tom's Supermarket LOGO to Liangye, who shook it and nodded.
"It won't be a problem. You can go first."
Then, the man nodded, climbed back into the cab, and drove the truck back to the normal unloading process.
Liang Ye handed the box directly to Lin Yu.
"Bind it."
Lin Yu was surprised to find that...
This whole carton was actually "props"!
The words "prop integration set" appeared in front of Lin Yu!
Although it was known that most large organizations would have the means to mass-produce "props" through the "second-level" [illustration] authority.
But when Lin Yu actually saw that "Order" had sent a whole carton, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
And when he bound this ownerless carton as his own prop...
This thing turned into four props and appeared in his own [prop space]!
[Intermediate protective clothing], [enemy-seeking dagger], [reusable universal healing potion], [reusable universal enhancement potion]...
Defense, weapons, recovery and enhancement.
Almost all the frontal combat needs are covered.
"Really... wealthy."
Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh.
Liang Ye laughed.
"Of course, otherwise how do you think "Order" has attracted so many members and is recognized as the most powerful organization?"
"High-end combat power is important, but what we are most proud of is not the top height of our organization, but the foundation and thickness of our organization!"
