Chapter 686: Nighthawk (Please Vote for the Big Chapter)

"Grandpa!"

Just then, the half-closed door was slowly knocked open.

A strong fragrance spread along the open door.

He Ao turned around and looked at the door.

Jia Xi walked into the room with two plates and looked up at He Ao, "It's time to have breakfast! The teacher said that eating a full meal will help you recover quickly."

He Ao looked at the fried steak on the plate, was slightly stunned, and smiled, "Jia Xi, did you fry this?"

"Yeah,"

Jia Xi nodded, and the steam lingered around her baby-fat cheeks. She looked at He Ao, "Grandpa, Jia Xi has grown up."

Hearing this, He Ao was a little absent-minded, and he stared at the young girl in front of him.

After a brief pause, he leaned forward, stretched out his hand, put his arm through his granddaughter's armpit, and gently hugged her granddaughter, his old cheeks pressed against the girl's tender little face.

Jia Xi slowly closed her arm holding the plate and hugged her grandfather.

There was a silence between the two that seemed to be a moment, but also seemed to be unusually long.

Finally, He Ao slowly let go of his hand, took the steak plate from the girl, and smiled, "It seems that we should eat."

"Yeah!"

Jia Xi nodded gently.

The two walked to the restaurant with the plate.

While cutting the steak, He Ao instructed his granddaughter to practice. In the past, Xi Tuo also instructed Jia Xi on her fitness methods.

Soon, the two finished breakfast.

He Ao put the plate into the dishwasher, changed into a new shirt, and picked up the cane.

After crushing the shell fragment, He Ao could clearly feel that he had established a connection with a being who was not close to him, and could roughly distinguish the other party's location.

As time passed, this connection was getting weaker and weaker.

He needed to find the other party before this connection completely dissipated.

Fortunately, this connection did not dissipate quickly.

"Grandpa."

Just as he was about to leave, Jia Xi grabbed the corner of his clothes, raised her head, and stared at him with wide eyes.

He Ao smiled and opened the door, "Jia Qian, go ahead."

The little girl's slightly depressed face froze for a moment, and then turned into a lovely smile in the next second, "Okay~"

The two of them left the house one after the other, took the elevator to the underground parking lot, found the SUV yesterday, and drove out.

Jia Qian sat in the back seat, leaning on the car window, looking at the street in the sun outside the window.

Because there are relatively few high-rise factories belonging to the Kaijiet Group around the northwest city where Xito lives, there is still some sunlight on the ground on the surrounding streets.

In fact, it is not early now, it is close to noon.

When He Ao returned home, it was almost morning, and he actually slept for less than five hours.

However, thanks to his strong physical fitness and soul, these few hours of rest swept away his physical fatigue.

He Ao reached out and turned on the radio of the SUV.

"A few days ago, in order to prepare for the second headquarters and escort key equipment, the mercenary group of the Kaijet Group has arrived outside the city of St. John and stationed there," a voice similar to that of a news anchor came from the radio. "According to internal information, many of the mercenaries in the mercenary group outside the city are originally from St. John. "The city government is currently actively communicating with the Kaijet Group to strive to obtain a few days of special "home visit leave" for mercenaries from St. John during this period of rest and stationing, so that they can go home to visit their families. "At the same time, a spokesperson for the Kaijet Group said that they have set up recruitment offices in all four districts and will conduct large-scale recruitment during this period of rest and renovation. "The spokesperson said that the Kaijet Group is a young group, and the Kaijet Mercenary Group is also a young mercenary group. Compared with other super conglomerates of the same level, the Kaijet Group's mercenary group is younger and more dynamic, with a large number of development opportunities and generous benefits. People of insight are welcome to sign up to join. "

Being young means having a weak foundation, a small team, and still developing.

Compared to the old super consortiums, the Kajet Group is indeed too young and has no foundation.

So far, its mercenary group may be considered large compared to ordinary consortiums, but compared to the old super consortiums such as Nord and Qunxing Pharmaceuticals, the gap is still large.

In recent years, Sito often hears some information about the recruitment of new mercenaries by the Kajet Group on the Internet.

"After more than two months of continuous increases, the federal grain price closed flat today. According to the Grain Industry Consortium Alliance, since the beginning of this year, due to various reasons such as dry weather, many grain industry consortium warehouses have caught fire. ”

After broadcasting the news about the Kaijet Group Mercenary Group, the radio began to broadcast some federal current affairs news, "and a group of older machines have aged to varying degrees this year. The combination of multiple factors has led to low grain production this year, and ultimately caused grain prices to rise for two consecutive months..."

······

"The mid-term elections for the Dawn City Council are coming soon. Affected by the fluctuations in grain prices this year, the support rate of the current Dawn City ruling coalition has dropped from the high level of medical reform last year.

"Under normal circumstances, the ruling coalition of the mayor of Dawn City is very likely to lose the support of the absolute majority of the city council in the mid-term elections, from completely controlling the council to barely controlling the council.

“As time goes by, the internal divisions in the ruling coalition of the current mayor Christos seem to be getting more and more serious. Some people believe that Christos may completely lose the parliament in this mid-term election and become a constrained figure. 'The Mayor in a Cage'.

"Now, Christos and his team urgently need some results to save the alliance that is about to collapse."

······

The latest news is constantly playing on the radio.

And He Ao's car kept turning in the gaps in the street.

He would point out the direction of the connection he felt to Eve on the car, and then Eve would plan the shortest way to that direction.

Of course, because there is no exact location, He Ao always advances step by step. After advancing a certain distance, he will sense the location of the mysterious connection.

This kind of segmented planning avoids taking the wrong path, but it is still inevitable that there will be some waste of distance and some detours.

After walking for more than two hours, He Ao bypassed a factory building and turned into a remote alley.

He could vaguely feel that the existence that was connected to him was at the end of this alley.

At the same time, he looked up.

Behind this alley, a tall building stands quietly.

He had been here before, when he was escorting Yin Xiya back.

This building is where the Pollution Cleanup Division branch is located.

Sometimes, the most dangerous places are indeed the safest places.

No matter how much Evolution searched for Nighthawk, he still did not dare to come to the Pollution Cleanup Department.

He Ao finally stopped in front of a small building at the end of the alley.

He could clearly feel that the person suspected of being connected to him, the Nighthawk, was in this small building.

To be precise, it is underground in this small building.

By this time, the connection had become quite weak.

He Ao found the underground parking lot of the small building nearby and drove the vehicle in.

There is paid parking here, with intelligent license plate recognition.

The parking lot seemed a bit old, and the facilities looked old. The signs on the wall showed that the parking lot had two floors, and He Ao went directly to the second underground floor.

And as he continued to go down, he could feel that he was getting closer and closer to that existence.

"Grandpa, where are we going?"

Jia Qian lay down between the driver's and passenger's seats, stuck her little head out, and looked at the underground parking lot where many of the lights were broken.

"Find someone."

The off-road vehicle moved forward slowly on the second underground floor of the parking lot. He Ao could only barely sense that the person in contact was in front of him, but he was not sure where it was.

The worst-case scenario, of course, is that the one exists in the city's sewer system beneath the parking lot.

But He Ao thinks this situation is unlikely.

If that being was really Nighthawk, he would most likely guess that the Evolutionary would go to the sewers to find him.

The normal road connecting St. John's sewer system to the ground is not nearby.

Relatively speaking, the underground sewer system and the above-ground pollution cleanup department building are two different spaces. The possibility of being discovered by the pollution cleanup department from evolution's actions in the sewers below is very small.

Then the 'Nighthawk' chose this location close to the Pollution Cleanup Department, so there was no point in being dark under the lights.

He hid in the sewers left by the Pollution Cleanup Department, which was actually the same as hiding in the sewers of other places.

Therefore, there is a high probability that ‘Nighthawk’ is in this parking lot.

While thinking, He Ao walked to the end of the parking lot.

In the darkness ahead, the outline of a rusty iron door appeared vaguely.

He Ao parked the off-road vehicle in the innermost parking space, took Jia Qian out of the car, and walked towards the iron gate.

There were very few people in this parking lot, almost no cars, and there was a thick layer of dust on the ground.

During the era of price wars between the Kjet Group and major grain industry consortiums, and during the Snava administration, the city of Saint-Jean had a period of relatively prosperous economy.

At that time, there were many cars in the city of St. Jon, and many parking lots were built.

Now, many of those cars have been sold or mortgaged to banks.

As there are fewer and fewer cars on the road, parking lots in better locations can still survive, while parking lots in remote locations are in a semi-abandoned state.

It has witnessed the prosperity and decline of the city of St. Jon.

Walking along the dusty road, He Ao quickly arrived at the rusty door.

The trembling invisible weak connection told him that he was very close to the existence on the other end of the connection.

The small door is locked, and there is a rusty small sign embedded on the door, [Warehouse].

The smart lock that locked the door had long been broken, and only the slightly scratched mechanical keyhole still showed that the mechanical part of the lock could still be used.

If it is a smart lock, He Ao can find a way for Eve to crack it, but for a purely mechanical lock, Eve cannot crack it directly.

He Ao thought for a moment. He first spread out with his spiritual consciousness, crossed the door, and saw the scene behind the door.

Then he paused slightly, pressed the keyhole with his index finger, and his consciousness soaked out, and he quickly felt out the structure of the lock cylinder.

Immediately, he found a piece of rusty iron nearby, took out a butterfly knife and whittled the iron piece into a thin key shape.

Finally, he inserted the key into the lock cylinder and turned it gently.

Card--

With a crisp sound, the rusty door was opened easily.

The lock cylinder is easy to twist without much hindrance, which proves that someone has been oiling the mechanical lock cylinder and that this room is occupied by someone 'frequently'.

Jia Qian, who was on the side, stared at all this with her mouth open. In her eyes, Grandpa opened the door without knowing what he did.

He Ao saw Jia Qian's expression. He glanced back to the right, signaling Jia Qian to hide behind him.

Jia Qian quickly understood. She put away her surprise and immediately retreated behind He Ao.

After confirming that Jia Qian had distanced herself, He Ao slowly opened the rusty iron door. At this moment, a twisted figure suddenly rushed out from behind the door, opening its bloody mouth and biting He Ao's head. go.

It was a grotesque evil spirit, covered in all kinds of twisted bone armor.

He Ao raised the butterfly knife in his hand, covered the butterfly knife with his consciousness, took a step forward, and the sharp blade passed through the evil spirit's body, destroying its entire body.

Weapons enhanced by spiritual consciousness can hurt spiritual bodies.

At the same time that the evil spirit was killed, the iron door in front of He Ao was slowly opened by him.

A long, narrow room appeared in He Ao's field of vision.

"Grandpa, that's..."

Jia Qian came over and stared into the room.

At the entrance of the entire room, a hound that was completely black and seemed to blend into the shadows was lying at the door. There was a deep wound on its body. Its eyes widened and it glared at He Ao who was standing at the door.

"Shadow Dog."

He Ao walked over slowly and reached out to wipe the hound's eyes.

It is difficult for a shadow dog to identify with a human being, but once it does, it will live and die with the human being it identifies with until the last moment of its life.

The shadow dog was long dead.

It just lays there, acting as a deterrent to those who want to come in at the end.

He Ao lowered his head and glanced at the wounds on the shadow dog. He felt a slight pollution on the shadow dog, as if it came from the winding hills.

The twisted evil spirit just now should be a monster formed by the combination of pollution and the remaining soul fragments of the shadow dog.

"Jia Qian, wait for grandpa at the door."

He Ao looked into the room and said slowly.

There may be items in the house that are more polluting.

"good!"

Jia Xi nodded.

At this moment, He Ao had slowly stood up and walked towards the house.

In the deepest part of this narrow room, there is a small bed with a small desk in front of the bed.

At this moment, a 'man' wearing an iron mask was sitting in front of the desk, leaning against the wall nearby.

His body was covered with scars, and his clothes were covered with red blood.

Just by looking at him, He Ao seemed to be able to hear some chaotic dance music coming from his ears.

But the consciousness cannot see any flow of energy.

This person has been dead for a long time.

Extraordinary strength maintained his body as if he had just died.

Sure enough, it was just as He Ao thought.

The person this broken shell finally contacted was Nighthawk.

He Ao walked to the desk.

The things on the desk are very simple, a pen, a storage chip, and a piece of paper full of words.

He Ao picked up the piece of paper. The handwriting on it was beautiful, handwritten in cursive.

[Hello my friend, glad you are here, I don't know how you found me, but I hope we are friends.
