Life Dungeon Game

It's 8 a.m., and He needs to get to the agreed-upon location before they start a new round of transactions.

Only by knowing the location can you find that gang.

Following this gang should lead them to the mysterious man's second laboratory.

With only two days left until the midterm elections, Heo doesn't have much time left.

He straightened his pants, tucked the pendant into his clothes, put on his coat, and left the room.

DeSanchez's deafening snoring came from the next room.

At the door of He Ao's room, a figure in a wheelchair was quietly waiting.

"Didn't you go to rest?"

He Ao, who had just opened the door, glanced at the wheelchair under Hai Xi and asked slowly.

"I bought this wheelchair after my last injury; I never thought I'd need it again,"

Hashi smiled, then pointed to a thin young man pushing her wheelchair behind her. "This is Ryan. He's been with me for many years and I trust him. He has a special talent for finding his way around; he's very familiar with the terrain of the West End and also knows the other districts of Whitland well."

"He can drive you around. Many gangs in the West District know him. If there's anything you can't do yourself, you can ask him to do it."

Finding a trustworthy person who knows the area is what He Ao asked Hai Xi to help him find. In this kind of situation where you're looking for clues, having a local expert who knows the situation to help you makes things much easier.

Hai Xi originally wanted to go with He Ao, but her injuries were too severe, so He Ao stopped her.

"Hello, Mr. Jess."

Ryan looked at Heo and bowed respectfully to him.

"Hello,"

He nodded to Ryan, then looked at Hayes, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome,"

Hai Xi looked up at He Ao, sunlight shining on her weak face. "I have a feeling that the fate of scavengers might change because of you. I believe in you."

"The scavenger priest's intuition?"

He Ao laughed.

"Perhaps it was inspired by my fellow travelers."

Hashi smiled.

In a sense, they are on the same path, moving forward towards similar goals.

······

He said goodbye to Hai Xi, and left with Ryan in the modified car that Hai Xi had specially prepared for them.

These modified cars are common in the West End and are not as conspicuous as the off-road vehicles that gangs like to drive.

Ryan knew the way well, and he led Heo along a shortcut to quickly reach the transaction location.

He told Ryan to park the car on the side of the road, just like any other parked vehicle. Then the two of them turned off the engine, sat in the car, and looked outside.

Not far ahead, several large SUVs slowly drove up.

I'm having a bit of writer's block, will be back later.

Chapter 581 We are law-abiding and enthusiastic citizens (Extra-large chapter)

Bright sunlight streamed through the half-open sheer curtains onto the pristine white bed.

The girl's long silver hair spread out on the bed like silk, and the crisp sound of bells and the vibration of her bracelet awakened her from her slumber.

The girl struggled to lift the covers, climbed out of bed, and looked around in confusion.

A bewildering dream and a clear reality intertwined in her eyes.

Not far from the bed is a smart ergonomic chair and computer screens densely packed all over the entire wall.

This is her room, and also her studio.

After a while, she finally woke up completely from her dream. She rubbed her head, and her somewhat unfocused pupils gradually gathered a faint light.

She turned her head to look at the head of the bed, where the smart bracelet was slowly vibrating, accompanied by a clear ringtone.

A small, white hand reached out, pressed it against the bracelet, and then grabbed the bracelet, picking up the noisy thing.

She looked at the phone number labeled "Yinuo Media" on her bracelet and, somewhat puzzled, answered the call.

"What's matter?"

She sat up in bed, her fair and delicate feet stepping onto the clean floor. The smart ergonomic chair slid over automatically and came to her side.

She turned to the side and sat down in the chair, which naturally led her to the computer desk.

“Miss Vianna, a gentleman from Witland called this morning looking for you. He said he is an old friend of yours, but they haven't seen each other for many years and he doesn't have your contact information. He asked us to get in touch with you.”

A gentle, clerk's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"A friend from Witland?"

Viana was taken aback.

Witland, that's a city on the other side of the Federation.

She was a little confused; her mind was still foggy from just waking up, and she couldn't immediately recall whether she really had a friend from Witland.

She hasn't made any new friends in a very long time.

"What's his name?"

She descrewed the computer screensaver and woke up the computer.

As windows filled with code appeared in front of her, the person on the other end of the phone responded, "He introduced himself as Jess, an associate professor at Whitland University. He said you've met before in Kaya City, and his father and your grandfather were good friends."

The girl's fingers, which were about to tap on the keyboard, froze.

-

Leaning against the shadows of the alleyway, He Ao watched the smuggling group and gang members making a transaction ahead.

"You have received a new friend request."

Eve's voice rang in Heo's ears.

He glanced at the bracelet, then looked up at the SUV ahead and sat back in the back of the modified car.

At this moment, the gang members who came to pick up the goods had completed the transaction and were starting the SUV to leave.

"Mr. Jess, should we keep up?"

Ryan, sitting in the driver's seat, watched as Heo closed the car door. He didn't care what Heo had just been doing, but asked in a low voice.

"Follow."

He Ao nodded slightly.

"Ok."

Ryan started his vehicle, creating distance, and slowly followed behind the SUVs.

He Ao looked down at the friend requests on his bracelet.

That was an account with a silver-haired cartoon girl avatar.

The profile picture awakened memories that seemed to have been long ago.

The last time he saw Viana was in the third official instance, the instance of restaurant owner Roy.

The girl wasn't tall, and had beautiful silver hair. She followed behind him, calling him "Uncle" in a childish and impetuous manner.

After Roy's death, she joined Christos' team and became a senior advisor to Eno Media, which was controlled by Christos.

Her name is still displayed on the official website of Yinuo Media.

Vianna has a strong talent for computers, and according to Christos, she was the one who spread 'K's' speech online.

This talent is different from Vian's. Vian learned, constructed, and created Eve, an artificial intelligence with enormous and efficient computing power, while Vianna is better at finding vulnerabilities in software and systems.

In a sense, Viana is a natural-born hacker.

In certain circumstances, Heo needs Viana's help.

So he contacted Viana through Ino Media, left his social media account, and asked Viana to add him as a friend.

The buildings outside the car window slowly receded as Heo accepted Viana's friend request.

Soon after accepting the invitation, Vianna tentatively sent a message, "Uncle Jess?"

He Ao replied, "Long time no see."

Next, He Ao had a brief conversation with her.

First, there's the matter of proving one's identity, which isn't difficult, because Viana's grandfather, Professor Moke, not only frequently praises Jess in front of his students, but also in front of his granddaughter, and encourages her to become a scholar like Jess.

So although Jayce doesn't have much information about Viana in his memory, Viana has a very deep memory of Jayce.

Through a few simple events and a brief video call, Viana tentatively confirmed Heo's identity.

Next came an exchange about events that have occurred in recent years.

After Professor Mork's death, Viana fled to Dawn City with Roy's father. Jess thought Viana was dead at the time, so he didn't spend much time investigating and was unaware of this experience.

Of course, He Ao knew this.

The scenery outside the car window rushed past, and before we knew it, the SUV in front had left the West End and entered Plante District.

Ryan was very experienced in tracking. He didn't just follow the off-road vehicles all the time. Instead, he used some secluded trails and, while maintaining a certain line of sight, used his familiarity with the routes to keep a close watch on the off-road vehicles.

As the vehicles entered the Plant area, the off-road vehicles gradually slowed down.

While Plante may not be as safe as North Vettel or St. Rothschild, it is still much safer than the West End. Causing trouble here will easily attract the attention of the Plante Police Department.

At this moment, there was a slight traffic jam ahead.

While they were waiting, Heo and Ryan switched to an ordinary sedan that Ryan had called in Plant District. Modified cars are common in the West End, but they are quite conspicuous in Plant District.

After getting into the new car, He Ao's gaze shifted forward.
