Arknights, my information is updated every day

"Chixiao·Draw the sword?" Chen Xiu muttered to himself. He had used it many times when playing Ziren before. This time he had seen it in person.

He is indeed extremely handsome. Men really can't resist the ability to chop with sword energy.

As he sheathed his sword, Chen Huijie heard applause behind him.

"What a handsome kung fu!"

The dragon's tail rose slowly with the praise, with a little pride.

Compared to an uncle who only knows how to criticize himself, Chen Xiu's words are more comforting to listen to.

"Hey, Ah Jie." Chen Xiu moved closer to Chen Huijie and looked at her expectantly. "Can this be taught? Is there a chance I can learn it?"

"Well, I can teach you." Chen Huijie twirled her braid with her fingers and pondered, "But this is my family's unique skill, and it's also related to my Originium technique. Even if you learn it, it won't have this effect."

Chen Xiu was a little disappointed, but then he thought about it and found that it was indeed the case. The martial arts dream that had just arisen in his heart disappeared in an instant.

"However, you really should learn some self-defense skills." Chen Huijie raised her hand and patted Chen Xiu on the shoulder. "By the way, take good care of yourself. Your condition is really too bad."

She could see that Chen Xiu's foundation was actually not bad.

I just don't know why the overdraft caused serious damage and made me look too weak.

"Don't worry!" Chen Huijie smiled brightly and gave a thumbs-up. "I'm quite experienced in physical exercise! In school, except for one of my roommates, no one could compare with me in physical fitness!"

Chen Xiu suddenly felt that something was wrong. He felt that Chen Huijie looked very much like a devilish instructor who thought that he didn't need to train anymore after training him.

But if you want to live longer in this cruel land, strength is indeed something you cannot do without.

Over-reliance on the protection of others will always lead to accidents, so the blacksmith must be strong himself!

With the Cyclops' foundation, it should be relatively easy for me to become stronger.

"Then I'll leave it to you, Ajie."

Walking out of Exit 6, the two arrived at a subway station that had been abandoned for many years.

Chen Huijie tapped the map and made a mark: "Follow the subway tunnel and you'll be near Building 91."

Chen Xiu looked at the subway map thoughtfully. After the two walked along the tunnel for a while, their pace gradually slowed down and they both noticed something wrong in the tunnel.

Compared to other places that have been in disrepair for a long time, this place is a little too clean.

It was obvious that someone had cleaned and tidied it up, and even the rails on the ground had been removed to facilitate the running of sports cars.

Ten minutes later, Chen Xiu and Chen Huijie saw a checkpoint in the subway tunnel.

Not only was the road blocked with barbed wire and barricades, but it seemed like you had to pay to enter.

"They are from Zhongyi Hall. The area ahead is their territory."

"It seems there's a way to go around this place."

The two exchanged a few words and followed the instructions on the blueprint to find the hidden emergency maintenance passage.

After coming out, we quickly found a large entertainment venue run by Zhongyitang, and the basement of Building 91 was also located in the entertainment venue.

Chen Huijie compared the plot design and whispered, "Their renovation utilizes the existing ventilation structure here. If we drill the ventilation duct, we should be able to dive directly to our destination."

Chen Xiu had no objection to this plan of action and asked, "Are you in front, or am I in front?"

Chapter 26: Infiltration and Investigation with Chen Huijie 2 (Please Read)

The narrow ventilation ducts were dark and dirty, filled with dust and dead insects.

Chen Xiu followed Chen Huijie on his knees, with the air currents from the dragon's tail occasionally brushing across his face.

Because the dragon horns were long and sharp, and it was difficult to communicate in the ventilation duct, Chen Huijie finally chose to walk in front.

When they arrived at the fork in the road, Chen Huijie used a flashlight to illuminate the map and confirm it repeatedly.

After all, if you take the wrong road here, it’s not easy to go back, and if you end up in a dead end, you’ll be at a loss.

Chen Xiu couldn't help but sigh that it was a good thing he didn't have claustrophobia, otherwise he wouldn't be able to stay in this environment for even a second.

After climbing around in circles for an unknown amount of time, I heard the faint sound of disco music from outside the pipe.

Although we cannot see the actual situation, we can still imagine the scene of unbridled behavior and chaos.

Taking advantage of the noise as cover, the two men decisively sped up their actions and quickly passed the disco.

We went through the box area, VIP area, staff accommodation area, and management area before finally arriving at the destination.

Chen Huijie kept looking out through the grille and chose a men's restroom as his destination.

Just as he was about to remove the grille, two thugs with cigarettes in their mouths staggered in.

The two men walked to the urinal, flushed the toilet, and talked nonsense.

After finishing, each of them lit another cigarette and started chatting while standing in the toilet.

"Those damn rats from the Gray Tail Hall are truly too much of a bully! They actually dared to kidnap someone from our territory and send them to the Imperial Guard Bureau to claim the reward. They simply don't take our Zhongyi Hall seriously!"

"Don't worry, those damn rats won't be around for much longer." Another person lowered his voice and said, "I heard some news. The boss is planning to get some tough guys from Ursus through the Saint Steed Castle Hotel to wipe out the Gray Tail Hall in one fell swoop!"

"Is it Boss Huang who set me up?" The burly man with plump hooves was not entirely unaware. "Calculating the date, it's almost time to deliver the goods to Boss Huang."

"Hey, this time it's all yellow stuff," the Kuranta man chuckled. "It's much more valuable than the white and black stuff we had before. After delivering this batch, we'll have some free time to get some new stuff."

"Speaking of which, last time, all that illicit stuff was sold to Colombia by Boss Huang. He said he was sending it to be tested for drugs or for experiments or something. I don't quite understand what he said, but the price was much higher than selling it to Casimir or Letania for mining!"

They threw the cigarette butt into the urinal and left the bathroom without even washing their hands.

About two minutes later, Chen Huijie quickly removed the grille and jumped into the compartment below.

He locked the door behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Chen Xiu also coming down, successfully completing the infiltration.

"Chen Xiu, did you hear what they just said? This is human trafficking!"

Chen Huijie's whispering voice was rapid and intense, and her eyes were filled with anger.

"As long as we've found the right place," Chen Xiu remained calm as always. "Next, we just need to find where those people are being held, take photos and videos, and we'll have the evidence."

In this way, the Guards will definitely come to the rescue, right?

In the narrow and cramped cement house, a red and white Liberian girl wrapped in a small quilt huddled in a corner.

The snow pheasant rested his chin on his knees and clenched his fists, worried about his fate, which he didn't know where it would go, but he was powerless to do anything.

She looked at the tiny scratches on the wall and sniffed her red nose.

Almost ten days have passed, but the panic and fear of being captured here by those terrible people still linger in my heart.

She never imagined that her most trusted friend would run away after lending her money, leaving her, the guarantor who knew nothing, to face harassing debt collection calls and court summons.

In the end, even the small house left to him by his grandmother was auctioned off to pay off debts according to law.

Overnight, the already financially struggling girl from Liberi ended up on the streets and slept on a bench in Central Park for several days.

Do I still have a chance to realize my dream?

Is there still a chance to study further and enter graduate school in Columbia?

Snow Pheasant wished so much that someone could rescue her and allow her to return to her beloved workbench.

It doesn't matter if the money is gone.

She can take a part-time job, pick up trash, and save money to start over!

Grandma once said that God rewards hard work, and as long as people are alive, there will definitely be hope and a way out. Xuezhi firmly believes that Grandma will never lie to her...

Woo woo woo, grandma, I miss you so much...

It's so dark here, I'm so scared, I want to go home! I, I don't want to be sold...

The girl's faint sobs echoed in the dim room. She did not feel sorry for herself or blame others, she was just very scared.

There was a snap.

A nimble black shadow fell from the sky.

Immediately afterwards, another black shadow fell from the roof more than four meters high.

Snow Pheasant's eyes widened, and before he could react to what was happening, someone quickly covered his mouth with a hand.

"Don't be afraid." Chen Huijie whispered comfortingly, "I'm a police officer from the Guard Bureau. I'm here to save you."

The snow pheasant's eyes lit up, and it nodded obediently like a chick pecking at rice, so excited that even its ear feathers were trembling.

Seeing that she understood the situation, Chen Huijie slowly put down his hand and immediately began to question her.

"What's your name? Are you from Longmen? Where do you live? How did you get here?"

Snow Pheasant was very cooperative and even reported his ID number without hesitation.

After hearing the experience of the girl from Liberi, Chen Huijie felt very sympathetic towards her.

"Since you're from the city, why did you come to the slums? If you had stayed in the city, the people from Zhongyi Hall wouldn't have caught you."

"Yes, yes..." Xuezhi hesitated for a moment and answered truthfully: "The Imperial Guards kicked me out."

"What!?" Chen Huijie's pupils trembled, and she suffered an unimaginable mental shock. "The Imperial Guard? How could the Imperial Guard drive the citizens of Longmen into the slums? This is a blatant crime!"

The snow pheasant huddled up in a ball, holding its head.

"it is true."

Chen Xiu's voice rang out, causing Chen Huijie's heart to tremble.

"Let me correct you. The Imperial Guards are only evicting homeless vagrants. This is in accordance with Governor Wei's orders to carry out a centralized rectification of various issues such as the city's appearance... In fact, this is why I was driven to the slums."

Chen Huijie immediately recalled the recently issued decree. He remembered that the Imperial Guards had organized a vote, and he had voted in favor...

But, but, isn’t that to reduce the crime rate?

Homeless vagrants are undoubtedly an unstable factor in the city, and they can be encountered committing crimes every day during patrols and duties.

Chen Huijie felt a little confused, as if he had inadvertently become an accomplice of the gang's illegal crimes.

"I was taken advantage of." Chen Xiu sighed, "The criminals are just too cunning."

With just a few words, Chen Huijie, who was feeling guilty, suddenly felt much better.

Suddenly, heavy footsteps were heard outside the house. It was the patrolmen coming.

Snow Pheasant panicked and exclaimed, "Hide quickly!"

Chen Xiu looked at the bed under Xuezhi, leaned over and saw that it was solid and no one could hide there.

Chen Huijie looked up at the ventilation duct on the roof, took a run-up, jumped over the wall, and with a set of smooth and flowing wall-climbing skills, he climbed onto the vent and slipped in as nimbly as a gecko.

He turned around and tried to pull Chen Xiu up, but found that he couldn't jump that high.

The footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer. After they stopped, the window on the iron door was slowly opened, revealing a pair of eyes.

Chapter 27: There is a traitor, trade as soon as possible! (Please read)

Chen Xiu was lying on the bed, his whole body covered by the quilt.

Snow Pheasant sat sideways on his calves, hugged his knees with his hands, and leaned forward with his face buried.

She used her body to block the more obvious contours of Chen Xiu's upper body.

Chen Xiu covered himself with the quilt and tried his best to hold his breath, while Chen Huijie, who was hiding in the ventilation duct, was tense.

Once the guard opens the door and comes in to check, she will jump down and take care of him immediately before thinking of other ways.

After more than ten seconds, the guard closed the window and walked towards the next room. The three people in the room breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

To be on the safe side, they waited until the guards had completed their patrol and walked away before removing their disguises.

We have learned almost everything we need to know, so it's time to withdraw.

Chen Xiu touched the snow pheasant's head.

"I'm sorry, we can't take you with us this time."
