“Name?”
“Lu Xin!”
“From where?”
“Green Harbor.”
“What identity?”
“The youngest manager of the business department of the deep business city West Branch of satellite city No. 2 of qingang.”
“MMH Where are you going?”
“Fire spark city.”
“What are you doing?”
“ I’m here to visit friends.”
When he arrived at the agent’s office in the land of chaos, Lu Xin realized that things were not quite what he had expected.
He had thought that an agent was just an agent. He just had to say a few words, pay some money, get the approval, and then he would be on his way.
He didn’t expect it to be on such a large scale.
In a dilapidated town, there was a brand-new building with painted walls. A group of people with guns were here to give approval. Next to the town was a tall and strict Sentry post. Through the Sentry post, there was a flat and spacious ” cargo road.
After paying the money and getting the approval, they could directly go on their way.
Hence, he lined up obediently, paid the money, and answered the questions honestly.
“Closing payment and visiting friends?”
The person in charge of inspecting Lu Xin’s car was a middle-aged man with a crooked hat and a gun in his arms. He had a cigarette in his mouth, which Lu Xin had just given him. He didn’t know if the buttons on his chest were intentional or not, but they weren’t aligned. They were crooked and gave off a very precise temperament. She asked Lu Xin all sorts of questions lazily as she sized up his car.
Lu Xin’s answer surprised him.
It seemed that he had rarely heard such a reason.
However, he didn’t ask any further questions. Instead, he glanced at Lu Xin and continued, “”Do you have an official identity?”
“Official identity?”
“No,” Lu Xin shook his head.
He was part of the special pollution Department in Green Harbor and had an official status.
However, the existence of this special contamination had never been made public. Therefore, this identity was somewhat unconventional. In addition, this time, he came out for a private matter and not for work. Of course, he was not an official.
He was the youngest manager of the business department of the West Branch of the deep business city, satellite city No. 2 of qingang.
“No official identity ”
“Then do you have any faith?” the man asked.
“Faith?”
Lu Xin was a little taken aback. How was he supposed to answer this question?
He understood that the other party was asking something similar to the true church.
The land of chaos was originally a complicated place with all kinds of factions. Now, it seemed that believers had also become an identity.
But strictly speaking, he did have some dealings with the believers in his real hometown, but he was not familiar with them, let alone their faith. So after a moment of silence, he could only honestly admit to them, ” no faith
Lu Xin’s answer surprised the man, and he sized Lu Xin up again.
“Do we have any acquaintances here?”
“This ”
Lu Xin subconsciously wanted to say yes. Wasn’t the village chief close to him?
However, on second thought, what was his name again?
Seeing that he was at a loss for words, the other party had already agreed, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
He looked down at the record on the list, then looked up at Lu Xin and said, ” you have no official background, no faith, and no acquaintance here. And you didn’t follow the convoy, but drove here by yourself? ”
“Is that illegal?” Lu Xin asked, stunned.
it’s not illegal, not illegal
Crooked hat laughed very happily and said, “”We welcome people like you.”
As he spoke, he kicked Lu Xin’s modified off-road vehicle twice and said, “”There’s no prohibited items in there, right?”
“No, no, I didn’t,”
Lu Xin immediately denied it. He was not that kind of person.
There were a lot of guns hidden in the modified off-road vehicle, but guns were not prohibited in the wilderness, so it was the truth.
Judging from Lu Xin’s expression, the other party seemed to be able to tell that he was not lying.
Or perhaps, he didn’t care much about it.
Thus, after making a round, he stopped his inspection. He lifted his chin slightly and said to Lu Xin, “”Three thousand.”
“What?” Lu Xin was caught off guard.
The other party laughed, blew out a smoke ring, and said, ” passing fee, three thousand.
As he spoke, he spread out his palm and waved it up and down,”Pay the money, collect the note, and be on your way.”
“What’s this?
Lu Xin’s mind buzzed as he asked in disbelief, “”What’s the matter? three thousand?”
“I’m alone ”
I didn’t bring any goods, and I’m not going to do any business. It’s just one person and one carriage. Why is the toll so high? ”
“Yup.”
Seeing how anxious Lu Xin was, the man’s eyes narrowed into slits from his smile. it’s precisely because you’re alone and have no official background, nor do you belong to any sect, and you don’t even have any acquaintances here that I’m charging you three thousand
however, the next time you come over, even if you have an acquaintance, you can look for me directly. I can give you a discount
“You ”
Lu Xin could tell what the other party meant, but he suppressed his anger.
He maintained his calm and tried to reason with the other party. He smiled and said, “”This doesn’t conform to your rules, right?”
Since the pyro company had an agent to approve the passage, Lu Xin believed that they would have a set of standards for how much and how to collect the passage fee. How could they pay such a high fee for single-person cycling?
However, in the face of his doubts, the other party’s face suddenly became stern. “My words are the rules,”
Lu Xin fell silent. He didn’t like this kind of unreasonable conversation.
After pondering for a while, he took a step back and passed another cigarette to her. “Captain, please excuse us ”
“I really don’t have that much money on me ”
“Hehe, you’re driving a car like this, and you’re saying you don’t have money on you?”
Hearing Lu Xin’s words, crooked hat chuckled and glanced at Lu Xin’s off-road vehicle. “The car’s not bad.”
“？”
Lu Xin clearly didn’t understand.
The crooked hat sneered and nodded his chin towards the distance. “Do you see that side?”
Lu Xin looked over and saw a pile of old cars by the wall.
Some of the tires were shriveled, while some were only left with an empty shell.
“If you insist that you don’t have money, we won’t make things difficult for you,” crooked hat laughed.
“Leave your car here and pick one that can be driven from the other side. This will count as you paying the road fee.
“How can we do that?”
Lu Xin furrowed his brows and took the cigarette back to his mouth.
Then, from his bag, he took out the antique lighter that his friend from the central city, scalpel, had given him and slowly lit it. The man with the slanted hat clearly knew what was good for him. When he saw Lu Xin’s lighter, his eyes widened.
Captain, you’re going a little too far
Lu Xin lit up his cigarette as he thought to himself, “”Can’t you just pass by? you still need my car, right ”
The man with the slanted hat sneered and glanced at Lu Xin, “”What do you want?”
“I hope to follow the rules ”
Lu Xin said with his last hope.
“I’m talking about the rules.”
Crooked hat’s expression turned cold as he pointed the gun at Lu Xin and sneered, ”
I’ve given you a chance, but you pretend not to understand. If you insist on not handing it over
“Where do you think those unwanted cars by the wall came from?”
Lu Xin understood what he meant. He raised his head to look at the muzzle and did not Dodge.
His expression turned serious as he said slowly, “”If you really want to do this, I’ll have to complain to your leader ”
“？”
Crooked hat’s expression was obviously a little confused.
After a moment of silence, they laughed and looked at Lu Xin before turning around and shouting, “”Captain.”
On a small mountain not far away, a man wearing sunglasses and playing cards with someone craned his head to look.
“Someone wants to report me,” crooked hat said with a smile.
Lu Xin looked up at him and said, “”Leader, he charged me 3000 Yuan as a toll, or he’ll confiscate my car.”
The man in sunglasses was also stunned. He looked at Lu Xin but didn’t answer him. Instead, he looked at the crooked hat and spat out the cigarette in his mouth. don’t f * cking talk nonsense. You know the rules. Bring me two thousand later.
“Alright, Captain.”
Crooked hat nodded and bowed before turning to Lu Xin. “You heard it?”
after you reported me, my 3000 became 1000. So, your toll became 5000 from 3000.
By the time he finished speaking, his eyes, which were a little hungover and bloodshot, had already narrowed.
Rustle
A few people who were holding guns and strolling around saw that something was going on and came over with a smile. Some of them were playing with their guns, while others searched around and picked up a wooden stick. They even blew on the rusty iron nails on the stick.
It could be seen that there was some dark red powder on the iron nail, which might have been dried blood.
The atmosphere changed at once. There seemed to be a dangerous aura floating under the bright sun.
“In that case ”
Lu Xin’s face was expressionless. He lowered his head and muttered to himself, as if he was going through a difficult process.
“Can I not take this path?” he asked.
He looked at the crooked hat, as if he was making a final prayer to him.
The man with the slanted hat looked impatient. His mouth twitched and he was about to scold Lu Xin when Lu Xin suddenly raised his hand and stopped him.
“You don’t have to say anything, I understand.”
As he said that, he pointed to his off-road vehicle and said,”Can I go up and consider it?”
Crooked hat glanced at the off-road vehicle, thinking that he was going to get the money. In addition, there were so many obstacles around them. She was not afraid of him doing anything, so she nodded coldly. However, the submachine gun hanging in front of his chest was tightly clenched, and the muzzle was aimed at Lu Xin’s back.
Lu Xin wasn’t afraid that he would shoot him in the back, so he opened the car door and got in.
hehehehe, I can’t go on with the rules. What do you plan to do? ”
From the back seat, Lu Xin’s father’s cold and gloating voice could be heard. He looked at Lu Xin with excitement.
rules are the crystallization of human wisdom. If you make people follow the rules, you can live well
Lu Xin sighed as he inserted the key into the keyhole. He asked in a slightly confused voice, “”But why don’t they treasure such a good thing?”
I can’t even live anymore. It’s not too much to snatch some
“Then, it’s reasonable to not follow the rules that don’t give people a way out, right?”
As he said that, he suddenly started the car, pulled the gear, and stepped on the accelerator.
