"Where did you meet the cyber police?"
"On the travel bus, from Toulon to Marseille. He was carrying a laptop, and he was the only person on the bus who could speak English. I had no other choice. What about you?"
"Monaco, casino. I met a young couple who were cheating on the slot machines."
"You speak French?"
"Yes."
"How lucky you are to encounter a quest with no communication barriers," Piercings said enviously.
Zhang Heng smiled and did not explain.
"Sorry, I asked you two questions. You can ask me two as well." Although Piercings was always cautious, he was also very open and honest, insisting on not taking advantage of Zhang Heng.
As for his vigilance, it was actually normal. After all, an unsuspecting person would not survive more than two episodes in a solo game. This made Zhang Heng feel that his previous proposal of dividing the work was a little unfair to him.
"Did you meet any other players?"
"No, I rushed here from Marseille, and you are the first player I met."
Piercings' answer also confirmed Zhang Heng's previous speculation. Players lived far apart from each other, basically eliminating the possibility of them meeting before they chose their faction. Also, everyone's skin color was different in this quest. Piercings was a typical white man, and Zhang Heng only kept his skin color because it was unrealistic to identify players by skin color.
"You said you kidnapped a Black Nest member before. What did you get from him?"
"I want to know how many people Black Nest has placed around Leah, and what kind of armed forces Black Nest has in Grenoble. For the first question, that guy didn't know about it. He only told me that these secrets are in the hands of a man named Vincent Naceri. As for the second question, Black Nest doesn't have many armed forces in Grenoble, but when necessary, they can ask the police for help." Piercings sighed, "The reason why I abandoned the car on the bridge was because I was worried that they would notify the police and set up a roadblock in front of me."
After thinking for a while, he asked, "How much do you know about Edward?"
"Not much. I only know that he is an important developer of CTOS, and his technology is very good. No one has seen him, and there are no photos of him. He said that he will contact us after we rescue Leah."
"The situation on my side is similar." Piercings grumbled. "If we knew where this guy is, we could just force him to hand over the evidence and kidnap him to complete the main quest. We wouldn't have to go around in circles."
"I have no more questions. Is there anything else you want to ask?"
"How do I contact you after this?" Piercings asked.
"Oh, my phone …" Before Zhang Heng could finish, his phone screen suddenly lit up. He had received a message.
"I'm a little boy. Tell me you're not with the person in the picture."
Zhang Heng looked down and saw the face of the man with earrings in the photo. It was a little blurry, but the man was holding the steering wheel with both hands.
"I have bad news," Zhang Heng said.
"What's wrong?" Piercings frowned.
"Although you covered your face when you jumped into the river, do you remember that you said that Black Nest can use the police force in Grenoble? Your photo was taken by a high-speed camera."
"F * ck!" Piercings exclaimed.
Zhang Heng had already sent a text message. "Help stall Vincent."
Three seconds later, Little Boy's reply appeared on the screen. "I forcibly turned off his phone and blocked the call, but there are others around him. You can use their phone to get another photo from the police station and send it to your men. Optimistically, you have 20 seconds to leave the bar."
"We have to go," Zhang Heng said to Piercings as he put away his phone.
The two got up and walked out the door. The next moment, however, everyone in front of them suddenly stood up.
"Okay, it's time for our nightly performance again. Everyone, please hold the hand of the person next to you. Don't be shy. It doesn't matter if you don't know each other. We are a family. Let's sing the next song together."
A man tried to hold Piercings' hand, but the latter glared at him fiercely.
However, while he was blocked by the crowd, Zhang Heng noticed that the screens of several phones were flashing almost at the same time. Two of them were standing near the door, reaching into their pockets and pulling out their phones.
"It's too late," Zhang Heng said, quickly looking around before his eyes fell on the toilet sign. "Go over there."
Black Nest's informant among the green frogs received a photo from Vincent. The person in the photo looked familiar.
They had been observing every guest in the bar, and naturally, they didn't miss Piercings. When they saw the photo, they immediately remembered who the person was.
However, when they looked at the photo, Piercings was gone, along with the Asian man who was with him.
But the bar was only so big, and if they couldn't find Piercings after looking around, they would eventually think of the toilet.
Zhang Heng and Piercings were now standing in the men's room. Unfortunately, there were no windows in the bar's toilet, but there was an exhaust fan in the southwest corner.
Piercings had one foot on the urinal's tile and the other against the wall, trying to remove the exhaust fan. He didn't expect it to be installed so securely. Just as Piercings was sweating profusely, Zhang Heng tossed him a screwdriver.
"Really?! There are actually people in this world who come to a bar with this thing on them? "
Piercings was shocked.
"Stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and dismantle it." Zhang Heng temporarily assembled a screwdriver with the Infinite Building Block. He had tested it before, and the screwdriver was solid in its physical state. There would be no item prompt.
Zhang Heng wasn't as worried about leaving the green frog as Piercings was. He still had the Evil Wall with him, and if he couldn't, he could melt the wall. However, the Evil Wall could only be used once, and he didn't want to use it so soon unless it was absolutely necessary. Also, his relationship with Piercings was limited to this cooperation, and he didn't want to show his trump card so soon.
While Piercings was removing the exhaust fan, Zhang Heng locked the toilet door and used whatever he could find to block it. After a while, he heard someone knocking on the door.
Fortunately, Piercings was almost done removing the screws. When he saw that the exhaust fan had loosened, he threw away the screwdriver and pulled it out with force.
After hesitating for a while, he turned to Zhang Heng and said, "You go first!" As he spoke, he pulled out the pistol at his waist, squatted down, and aimed at the toilet door.
Now was not the time to be polite. Zhang Heng picked up the screwdriver on the ground, stepped on Piercings' back, and crawled into the vent.
