Master of the Stars (The Lord of the Stars)

Chapter 1180: The wind doesn't stop (middle)

The laughter over there weakened, and within a few seconds of effort, the bamboo pole led Wen Huilan to the discussion site...it could only be called the discussion site.

There are no serious chairs here, it's just an empty space with a projection work area in the middle, surrounded by a few people, standing or sitting. Sitting on the ground, such as Ruiwen, who has just been broadcasting for a few hours.

Wen Huilan smiled and paid tribute to the members of this circle, and was also under the scrutiny of the members of the circle-for those who were far from enthusiastic, a smile would be considered friendly, and no one moved.

Wen Huilan didn't mind, she was mentally prepared before she arrived. Her own gaze also ignored most people, only on Ruiwen, who looked slender and indifferent, and stayed a little longer.

On the contrary, it was the latter. He didn't even look at her at all. He didn't even give a curious glance. He just stared at the projection work area in the center, very focused, and seemed to be in a trance.

Wen Huilan turned his attention to the most important and eye-catching person in this discussion scene.

Ronan.

It's not to say how handsome or unique the appearance of this youngest transcendent is, nor how powerful and out-of-form he is. Just because Ronan at this time is in a shocking state.

He himself half-closed his eyes, his whole body was confined in a frame of nothingness, his feet were not touching the ground, his body was hung in the air, without any visible support, but there was a circle of mechanical devices on the outside, keeping a considerable distance, and it seemed that Some kind of reading is displayed.

The reason why he said it was "imprisoned" was because Ronan was trying to move his arms, and every tiny movement seemed to resist strong resistance. He was supposed to wear loose training clothes, but every movement seemed to be a confrontation with invisible power, and even generated intense "friction", producing dazzling electric fire.

All of these caused direct damage to the practice clothes, so that the shirt was riddled with holes at this time, and it was still burning continuously.

At present, he is still a teenager with a thin body, sweat and electric fire are intertwined, walking on the surface of the skin, but Wen Huilan has no doubt that this force will continue to stimulate the muscles, fascia, bones, internal organs and other deeper layers. Organization-Ronan's body surface occasionally has rapid distortions and swelling phenomena. If you look carefully, there are high-speed tremors, far beyond what a normal person should have.

Walking in the laboratory before, the source of the feeling of "leakage" was found.

What's strange is that the trousers of his lower body are still intact, and he doesn't know how to limit the scope of damage.

Facing Ronan in this state, even with Wen Huilan's knowledge and knowledge, he hesitated as to whether to say hello as usual.

It was Ronan who opened his half-closed eyes first, looking for ordinary pupils, facing Wen Huilan's gaze, and his tone was very gentle:

"Sorry, Ms. Wen, the experiment took longer than expected... There were some small fluctuations just now. Don't worry, it will not affect the communication, it is just not polite."

"No, please don't care."

Wen Huilan leaned towards Luo Nan, with a soft and correct attitude: "I am deeply honored to be allowed to meet with you here, and hope that it will not interfere with your experiment."

"Nothing. In fact, before you got here, we were just sharing information and discussing issues."

"Excuse me, are you discussing the issue of smuggling channels in Taixi Six? Can I listen in?"

"Of course, if possible, I hope to get some new information from Ms. Wen for reference."

"Ashamed, I have caused trouble to Professor Luo and everyone."

In the fake greetings, the bamboo pole next to it showed a warm male style: "I'm going to move a chair."

"No, that's good, I like it very much... It's good if you don't dislike my old woman with a bad atmosphere."

"This is so cruel!" The paper-cutting on the scene couldn't help but leave a message in the group and exclaimed, because he had countless blind dates, and such a beautiful woman who "recognizes the old" has never been seen.

Obviously so radiant.

Wen Huilan seemed to be really indifferent. She left her bodyguards and took two steps forward. Just like most people on the scene, she chose a relatively empty location-on the left is Zhang Yingying who just explained the information and Ruiwen on the right. , Just sit on the ground with knees bent, naturally bending and flattening your legs.

The large coat couldn't hide her slender legs, on the contrary, it further highlighted the charm, making people unconsciously follow this natural line, stretched and twisted, and patrolled back and forth.

The discussion in the group of friends is even more enthusiastic:

"I can't see it, this is the big smuggling channel... the strong man who was arrested and dared to come over and negotiate."

"It's Gao Wenfu, after all, it is 7 of spades, the leader of Lake City, the third vice president of the association, and a close comrade of Abner."

"Damn, I really don't want to admit it..."

The atmosphere was really weird. After the bamboo pole sat down in an open space opposite Wen Huilan, he added a reminder in the group: "This one is indeed older than everyone in the room."

"No, are you older than Zhai Gong?"

"..."

Because Zhai Weiwu and Heyuanzhi were both involved in this incident, Ruiwen deliberately avoided the scenes during the live broadcast, even if there was no danger. Expected to be hit in the chest.

The bamboo pole knocked to death intelligence: "As far as I know, yes. I thought you all knew it."

"I can't understand this kind of female boss."

"…never mind."

"By the way, Sister Yingying was very silent today."

Xie Junping, who was also at the scene, was purely here to join in the fun, but he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic.

But the fact is that Zhang Yingying, who is easy to ridicule and ridicule, is really very silent under such circumstances. Seeing Wen Huilan "join" the circle, she even sat beside her without saying a word, until the latter adjusted comfortably, she reached out and knocked on the large box she was leaning against:

"Let me go on?"

Ronan nodded in agreement.

At this time, Zhai Gong raised his hand first: "I just wanted to ask, since it is a link in the smuggling line, and there are accomplices in the sixth department of Taixi, then, does Tai Chao know? What about the uncle? There are other people in the tribe..."

"As far as we know, Tai Chao knows a little bit, but he prefers to deal with powerful figures in the city. He also started the Taixi company with policy and fame. He didn't want to get too deep in the smuggling line. Open your eyes and close your eyes to eat filial piety... Sometimes you have to rely on the old bear to get through some special connections."

Zhang Yingying introduced the relationship between the characters, the logistics links and the in-depth intelligence of the projection work area at a glance. Soon, an underground trading chain connecting the main city of Xiacheng, the satellite city and the wilderness appeared in front of everyone on the scene.

Xie Junping also had doubts. He carefully looked at Wen Huilan who was smiling and listening obliquely, and said, "This chain is very targeted. From the outside to the inside, you can only get in. It seems to be dedicated to Xiacheng. , Is the deficit too serious?"

"It is not surprising that the internal management of the city, at least the relatively strict management model of Xiacheng, did not leave enough space for the production of contraband. It is natural that the industrial chain will shift to the peripheral areas, such as suburbs, outer suburbs, and outer suburbs. Satellite cities and even the wilderness... they were originally Xiacheng's needs."

Zhang Yingying replied, she reached out and moved the projection work area to reduce the scale of the map it displayed, revealing a wider area: "In fact, this is a typical post-war black market pattern. The relatively closed ecology of large urban circles , Resulting in the suppression of logistics, the original global distribution network is no longer seen, some cities like Xiacheng can only be'self-sufficient'.

"Attention, I'm talking about some. There are still many cities that have re-established this kind of obscure distribution network, and quite a few of them are simply replaced by'Vagrant Exchanges.' Therefore, that stuff is now being sold. The dark web predators with tentacles everywhere, there must be a huge group of vested interests in it, and I don’t know how many people want to share it...

"Comparatively speaking, the surrounding areas of Xiacheng are only local refineries and family workshops, but they are already an amazing chain of interests. In this case, some powerful figures in Xiacheng also participated, but what is interesting is that they are on the contrary. There is no dominant power."

Upon hearing this, everyone on the scene turned to Wen Huilan.

Under the focused gaze, the corners of Wen Huilan's lips were slightly raised, and she pressed it halfway, finally turning into a restrained and somewhat helpless smile.

In this smile, she took the initiative to speak: "Why is this happening? Maybe I can give Professor Luo and you an explanation... for reference only."

Ronan was still in his special experimental environment, and he took another long breath, seeming to have temporarily relieved the extremely heavy burden, and his smile was clear:

"Speaking."

Wen Huilan corrected her sitting posture slightly: "In short, the reason why Xiacheng does not hold the dominant position in this transaction route is the key factor because the development of Xiacheng branch is too good."

"Huh?" Xie Junping expressed suspicion exaggeratedly.

"In fact, the logic inside is very simple-Xiacheng has the largest group of registered capable people in the entire East Asian region except Ancheng; the'iron triangle' has long-term stability, continuous cooperation, and good governance.

"Especially there is the Lingbo network, which provides long-distance support to key areas in the surrounding wilderness, forming a de facto safety zone, facilitating replenishment and nearby processing.

"With their kneading, the Xiacheng branch has stably controlled the collection, processing and distribution channels of most of the distorted products on the peninsula and even the surrounding waters."

Wen Huilan pointed to the projection work area and accurately moved several important product bases in the surrounding area of ​​Xiacheng one by one: "According to the usual practice of the Xiacheng branch, the relevant resources are invested in the official channels of the Association of Persons of Ability except for their own use. Free trading.

"These properties have a clear source, excellent quality, and support the credit units within the association-such highly ordered properties are rare in the world's global market.

"In fact, with the power of one city, it has supported at least one-twentieth of the official sources of distortion products of the Association of Ability. The underground market, which is similar to the global market, has almost no place in Xiacheng.

"The vagrant exchange cannot develop. Some deformed needs in the city still have a huge market, which has given birth to a local production and sales network. However, under the unique control and control order in the world in Xiacheng, this is also a deformity of congenital deficiency. You can't make the climate, you can only ask for things outside."

Wen Huilan looked down and leaned back to Ronan again:

"This is the reason for the intervention of'Wang Xing'."
