Chapter 248 Location: Tropical Rainforest

  Wu Ruonan opened a company called Grandma Luo Co., Ltd.

   The name is weird, but it's not a serious company either.

  Because it is a company that started after the end of the world. Its main business is to gather supernatural beings, go on wild adventures, collect supplies, hunt mutant creatures, etc.

  Many people who are unwilling to accept the strict management of Doomsday Base have joined this company and are active in West City.

  Grandma Luo Co., Ltd. is the biggest force in West City, bar none.

  Chen Ji saw the description in the information, and knew that the founder of this company, Wu Ruonan, was quite powerful.

   Sure enough, look down.

  The information is described as follows:

She was one of the first batch of supernatural beings awakened outside Haishi three years ago. She has superb control over wind powers and can easily create a hurricane to blow away groups of enemies. She once cut off a building with a wind blade and was rated as SS+ level power user, don't offend her unless necessary.

  Because of the latter sentence, Chen Ji had to go with Zhou Wan to ask her for those hard drives.

  That's right, Wu Ruonan packed all the hard drives and servers in the data center of the big company three years ago and took them away.

  No one cared at the time.

  The former largest e-commerce company in the Xia Kingdom also closed down a long time ago, and no one cared about the data center at all.

   Until recently, when Chen Ji wanted to check the relevant information on the items in the North Pole, the people at the Doomsday Base in West City learned about this situation.

   Fortunately, Wu Ruonan brought the hard drive out, otherwise the data center would likely collapse and the hard drive would be completely destroyed.

   "Grandma Luo Co., Ltd...the name is very personal."

  In the car, Chen Ji complained.

  Huang Yuwen said: "I heard that it is to commemorate her grandma. The supernatural beings who hang around outside usually have a lot of personality."

  Zhou Wan looked at her phone and said, "The people from Xicheng who are coming to pick us up are coming soon. Let's go with them. They will get acquainted with this place."

  Chen Ji has no objection.

   A group of people sat in the car and waited at an intersection outside the west city. The surrounding buildings had long been abandoned, and the road and dilapidated roofs were covered with ice and snow. Occasionally, there were traces of human activities:

   Some people came back from adventures in the wild, and after seeing the lights from a distance, they came to take a look.

   After waiting for about half an hour, a car drove up from a distance, stopped in the distance, and honked its horn on Chen Ji's side.

"It's them."

   Zhou Wan said, pulling Chen Ji out of the car and meeting him.

  Chen Ji saw a man in a dark blue jacket with a lit cigarette dangling from his mouth. He walked down slowly from the car, didn't come over in a hurry after getting off the car, took a strong puff first, and exhaled a circle of smoke.

   "Hello." Zhou Wan asked him in a flat tone: "Are you from the Xicheng base?"

"right."

  The smoking man answered very quickly.

   "We're going to discuss something with Wu Ruonan, do you have any suggestions?"

   "No suggestion, I can bring you to see her, as for how to deal with her, you can do it yourself."

"no problem."

  The communication between the two parties was very fast, and they didn't even report their names to each other, so they got in the car and left.

  Huang Yuwen seemed to be accustomed to this way of communication, and drove slowly to keep up.

  Chen Ji has no objection either.

  Three vehicles were driving on the icy road. After entering the city, they continued to drive into the city.

  Xicheng City is similar to Haishi City, with abandoned and damaged high-rise buildings everywhere, and the cold wind blows the broken windows, making whistling noises.

  In the wild, even supernatural beings live in groups.

   After driving for more than half an hour, Chen Ji saw a little light in front of him. After approaching, he found many storefronts with lights on, bars, restaurants, table card rooms, and some indescribable hotels.

  The division of these shops is not very clear. You can also play cards for entertainment in the restaurant, which is more for killing time and entertainment.

  The arrival of the three cars attracted the attention of many people. Some strange-looking young people squatted on the street, whistling and booing at the cars.

   Obviously, they knew that these three cars were not local to Xicheng.

   Fortunately, it is not as messy as Ameiken here, at least no one dares to come up to rob.

  Led by the leading car, Chen Ji and his party came to the gate of an old residential area. It looked inconspicuous, but the front door was very clean. The shops near the gate of the community maintained their pre-apocalyptic appearance?

   "Then Wu Ruonan is a nostalgic person?"

  Chen Ji can tell at a glance that the "breakfast", "convenience store", "hardware store", and "noodle shop" in these two rows are all deliberately imitating the pre-apocalypse.

   Empty has its appearance, but what it sells is very different from the day before the end.

  For example, it is absolutely impossible for a breakfast shop to sell pre-apocalyptic dumplings, millet porridge, corn on the cob, etc., and it is impossible for anyone to go to a hardware store.

"should be."

  Zhou Wan chuckled lightly, she had just returned from Earth, and she was very familiar with the scene in front of her.

  As for Huang Yuwen and Kong Xiaomin, who came here for the first time, they were stunned. It was an unusual scene before the end, but at this moment, it became moving.

   "Who are you looking for?!"

  At the gate of the community, inside the security booth, an old man shouted this way.

   "Master."

  The smoking man got out of the car, walked over with a smile on his face, handed him a cigarette first, and asked, "Do you remember me? Qifeng who lives outside the city!"

   "Qi Feng?"

  The uncle waved his hand to show that he would not smoke, and looked him up and down: "Who do you want to come to the community?"

   "It's like this, those are my friends, they want to discuss a business with your community, and they want to meet Chairman Wu of Grandma Luo's company!"

   "Meet the chairman?"

  The uncle's face turned cold, and he slammed the door of the security booth: "Our chairman is not free, go back, come back another day!"

   "..."

  When that Qi Feng was embarrassed and embarrassed, Chen Ji also saw it.

  Wu Ruonan, the wind element supernatural being in the west city, is a very nostalgic person, trying his best to maintain the scene before the doomsday.

  Including living in an old community, hiring a grandpa to watch the gate, claiming to be the chairman, meeting to discuss business, etc.

   But in fact, Chen Ji has already seen that many people are paying attention to this area and everywhere in the store. Once they want to force their way in, there will be "security guards" with supernatural powers jumping out immediately.

   "I can't help it."

Qi Feng retreated back, came to Chen Ji's car, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Chairman Wu suddenly refused to see the guests. I don't know why, and the doorman also refused to let us see other people... Probably because he knew about our Come to their chairman. How about you wait a while?"

   "Then what should we do?" Huang Yuwen was very upset, "Break in directly?"

   Zhou Wan didn't make up her own mind and looked at Chen Ji.

   “You go tell them we want to buy some data.”

  Chen Ji said to Qi Feng, please ask him to negotiate again.

  Qi Feng did not refuse, and went again, but came back within five minutes.

  The doorman refused very simply.

   "This doesn't work either?"

  Chen Ji frowned, "Is Wu Ruonan not in Xicheng?"

  If she was here, it would be unreasonable for her not to show any face to the people at the Doomsday Base in West City. After all, if her community wants to survive, many supplies have to be obtained through trading.

   "It would be great if I could find the warehouse where they piled up hard drives." Zhou Wan said regretfully, "In this way, I can go in and get them directly. Anyway, these hard drives don't belong to them."

  Chen Ji smiled, "There is no other way, now we can only see if you and I have enough face."

"Um?"

   Zhou Wan looked at him.

I saw Chen Ji rolled down the car window and shouted towards the security booth: "Master, my name is Chen Ji, and my girlfriend Zhou Wan is by my side. This time we made a special trip from Haishi to visit your chairman. Please inform me." one time!"

   After saying this, everyone looked at him in unison.

  The old man of the security booth opened the window in surprise and poked his head out. The security guards around were also surprised. Qi Feng, who was standing not far away, was also shocked at the moment.

   Zhou Wan and Chen Ji, the names of the first and second supernatural beings, are indeed resounding enough.

  Several people arrived quickly, and one of the middle-aged men was very enthusiastic:

   "Mr. Chen, Ms. Zhou, welcome to Xingfu Garden Community, Sanke Road, Ming'an District, Xicheng. I am the president of Grandma Luo Co., Ltd., Cao Qing!"

   Ignoring the strange introduction above, the focus is on his identity as the president, equivalent to Wu Ruonan's deputy.

"Hello."

  Chen Ji shook hands with him.

  Qi Feng and even the Xicheng base don't have enough face, but the field-level supernatural beings Chen Ji and Zhou Wan are enough to make this group of people cautious and cautious, and dare not offend easily.

  Especially after Zhou Wan went to Ameiken a few months ago to recover the "power crystal" that was strayed away, her strength is beyond doubt.

   "Sorry, Mr. Chen!"

  Cao Qing said apologetically: "Our chairman had something to do a few days ago and left West City temporarily. Before she comes back, we dare not make any decisions without authorization."

  Chen Ji said: "We don't need anything, just some useless hard drives. After taking them back to retrieve the data, I will return them to you."

"terribly sorry!"

  A man next to Cao Qing, the director of the marketing department of Grandma Luo's company, answered him bluntly: "We don't have any hard drives. You have come to the wrong place."

  The atmosphere suddenly turned cold again.

  Chen Ji smiled and said: "We came here this time to make a deal. If the deal fails, we have to ask for it back. I hope you can think about it again."

  The faces of Cao Qing and his party changed.

  The light and heat power user in front of them just made them feel strong pressure with just a simple sentence. He dared to say such words in their territory, which proved that he has absolute strength!

   "Chen, Mr. Chen."

Cao Qing grabbed the director with a stiff face, and said, "We also really want to find a hard drive for you... But we collected a lot of things back then, all of which were stored in various warehouses in West City, and wanted to find the hard drive you mentioned. I'm afraid it will take a long time."

   "We don't have manpower right now..."

  Cao Qing suddenly changed his mind and tried to ask: "Mr. Chen, if you find our chairman and talk to her personally, I believe the chairman will be happy to do business with you. What do you think?"

   "Where is your chairman?"

  Chen Ji became a little impatient.

   This group of people is really troublesome.

   "About ten days ago, the chairman said she had to leave, and we don't know where she went."

   "Are you playing with us?"

   Huang Yuwen was annoyed.

   Simply call someone to turn the warehouse upside down. Believe it or not, you can’t find the hard drive!

   It's easier than finding someone.

"No, alas." Cao Qing sighed again, frowning: "We don't know where the chairman has gone, and we weren't worried at first, but just the day before yesterday, a person named Lin Zhiyang sent a message saying that he Won…"

"who?!"

  Chen Ji was shocked suddenly, and Zhou Wan was also very surprised.

   "Our chairman."

   "No, who sent the message?"

   "Lin Zhiyang..."

"it's him!"

  …

  Five minutes later, Chen Ji knew the cause and effect.

  Lin Zhiyang said that he knew Wu Ruonan's whereabouts, and if Cao Qing and the others wanted Wu Ruonan to come back smoothly, they would obey his orders.

   Just right.

  Lin Zhiyang sent the information by text message and sent it directly to Cao Qing.

   "There is a high probability that this is true."

  Cao Qing had a bitter face, "After the end, I re-applied for a card, and not many people know my phone number. But I wonder, who can easily restrict our chairman?"

   "Whether it's true or not, it's worth investigating. Send him a message and say anything."

  Chen Ji took out his mobile phone.

  The post-apocalyptic network is very poor. In the wild, it basically relies on satellite communication. Only the base has network, but now there is a lack of power, the network has stopped again, and only TV can be watched.

  Cao Qing sent a text message according to his words. He didn't want to believe Lin Zhiyang's words, but it was also true that Wu Ruonan hadn't come back for ten days.

   "Mayen, have you found it?"

  Chen Ji asked on the phone.

   "Master, the information has been located, and the coordinates are as follows..."

   Maien is a **** on the Internet!

  She easily entered the satellite network, tracked the receiver of the information, and obtained the location information of the other party.

   "It's so far away?"

  Information shows that the other party is on the other side of the earth, and in an inconspicuous country, not in a mainstream country.

  It is not surprising before the end of the day, but after the end of the day, most countries have already collapsed. What is Lin Zhiyang doing there?

"let's go!"

  Chen Ji pulled Zhou Wan, got into the car directly, and asked Huang Yuwen to drive away.

  Leaving a group of people from Grandma Luo's company in a daze.

"etc!"

  Cao Qing hurriedly shouted: "Mr. Chen, where is our chairman?!"

   "Soccer Country, Tropical Rainforest."

  The voice came back from afar, and a group of people were stunned again.

  Chairman, no, that Lin Zhiyang guy, and the chairman are both in the tropical rainforest?

  Director Zhao of Grandma Luo's company said with doubts, "Those trees in the tropical rainforest have turned into a large group of mutated plants? Who would be active there?"

"do not care!"

  Cao Qing gritted his teeth and said: "Let's go there too, call Xiao Zhang, his driving ability is faster, let's keep up with them!"

  Everyone has no opinion.

  Besides being paranoid about some things, Wu Ruonan is undoubtedly a good boss, and without her, Grandma Luo Co., Ltd. and the people in this community will also be scattered, and the chairman must be found!

However.

   "How are they so fast?"

  Cao Qing watched the two cars in front of them leave the West City, and they flew straight up, like rockets on the ground, with an incredible speed!

   "It's Brother Huang in the drag racing world!"

  Xiao Zhang, who was driving, sighed: "I guess Brother Huang will come, after all, he is a member of Zhou Wan's team...President, I can't keep up with him, Brother Huang's abilities are much stronger than mine!"

   "...Then follow slowly."

  Cao Qing understood it thoroughly.

  They are still far behind the top superpowers.

  Hope you can find the chairman smoothly!
