Three days later, Zhao Yao took a plane all the way to the poorest country in Europe.
According to the information he got from his mobile phone in China, the headquarters of the Double-headed Eagles should be here.
Walking out of the airport, Zhao Yao looked at the dilapidated streets, the old buses, the blonde foreigners on the street, and the curious gazes they cast at him. He shrugged and waited for the tour guide he hired to pick him up.
Soon, he saw a short-haired girl walking over. The yellow-skinned girl with black eyes was particularly eye-catching in the crowd. Zhao Yao also saw her at a glance. She looked the same as in the photo, with big eyes, short hair, a round face, and she was a little short.
The girl showed her hand to Zhao Yao and trotted all the way to him. "Hello, are you Mr. Zhao Yao?"
"Yes, it's me." Zhao Yao stretched out his hand and said, "Student Lin Wanqian, right?"
"Yes, it's me, Mr. Zhao Yao." Lin Wanqian shook hands with Zhao Yao and said, "500 euros a day is no problem, right?" As she spoke, she looked at Zhao Yao expectantly. 500 euros a day to be a tour guide was too tempting for her.
Zhao Yao nodded, waved his hand and said, "No problem." As he spoke, he took out 500 euros and said, "This is the tour guide fee for today's first day."
Seeing the money, Lin Wanqian's eyes lit up, but she didn't take it immediately. Instead, she asked warily, "Mr. Zhao Yao, I only provide basic tour services. There are no other extras, and I won't come out at night."
Zhao Yao rolled his eyes and said, "Don't think too much. Do you think I'll be interested in you?" He pointed to the blonde girls on the street and said, "Look, there are so many blonde girls with long legs, and all of them are prettier than you. You'll be safe here."
Hearing Zhao Yao's words, Lin Wanqian was so angry that her chest seemed to have grown bigger. She glared at Zhao Yao and took the 500 euros from him. She adjusted her tone and said slowly, "Mr. Zhao, where do you plan to go first? The southern coastline here is very beautiful. It's directly connected to the Mediterranean Sea, and the water is so clean that you can see the sand under the water. It's almost summer, and the sun is very good … "
For the 500 euros, Lin Wanqian had done her homework, and she was very familiar with all the scenic spots.
Zhao Yao waved his hand and said, "No, I'm not going. I'm just going to walk around the city."
"Ah?" Lin Wanqian looked at him strangely and said, "Then we can go to the square in the city center. The museum, the art gallery, and the opera house are all there, and …"
Zhao Yao waved his hand again and said, "I'm not going. Take me directly to the most chaotic place here."
"The … the most chaotic place?" Lin Wanqian's expression changed and she unconsciously took a few steps back. She looked at Zhao Yao with vigilance and said, "Mr. Zhao, what are you doing here?"
"Traveling, didn't I tell you?" Zhao Yao looked at the other party's guarded expression and smiled. "Don't worry. When I travel, I don't like to look at the scenery. I like to get in touch with the local customs."
Lin Wanqian smiled awkwardly. She didn't know if she should regret not accepting this tour guide mission. The security of this country was not as good as it looked. She did not want to get involved in any strange things.
Zhao Yao asked, "What about you, Little Lin? Why did you think of coming here? " As they walked, Zhao Yao looked at the scenery on the street. Along the way, he didn't see a single black-haired Asian. There were so few tourists here.
"I'm here to do a summer project." Lin Wanqian advised, "Mr. Zhao, there are some places here that are not suitable for us to go. It's too dangerous. Let's go to the National Museum in the city center."
Lin Wanqian was not a child. Under the surface peace of this country, there was a hidden criminal chain that ran through Europe. Every year, a large number of people and drugs were sold to all of Europe and even America from here.
Keeping a low profile and not causing trouble was her creed here.
Zhao Yao sighed. If he didn't know the local language and needed a tour guide to translate for him, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.
"How about 1,000 euros?"
Lin Wanqian shook her head like a rattle drum. Zhao Yao then said, "5,000 euros, just for today."
Lin Wanqian was slightly stunned. Hesitation flashed in her eyes, and she struggled to say, "I'm just taking you there. I won't do anything illegal."
"Okay, let's go."
Following Lin Wanqian on foot and on the bus, Zhao Yao looked at the scenery of this small European country.
There were coffee shops and people drinking coffee everywhere on the street. The locals looked relaxed and lazy. When they saw Zhao Yao and Lin Wanqian, they all looked at them as if they were looking at a rare animal. The architecture of the city was similar to that of a second-tier or third-tier city in China. It was not as backward as he had imagined.
However, as Lin Wanqian led the way, the scenery along the way became more and more desolate. From the highway to the dirt road, from the center of the city to the suburbs, they finally came to a street full of single-story houses. There were shacks built by the locals all around, densely packed together, like a big maze.
Some children came to ask Zhao Yao for money, but Lin Wanqian stopped them.
Lin Wanqian looked at Zhao Yao and said, "Try not to give them money, and don't take out the euros in your bag. If they want to buy something, I'll pay in leks (local currency). Don't show your wealth, you know?"
Zhao Yao nodded. His eyes swept around, and at the same time, his ears twitched slightly, constantly collecting information in the air.
"There should be gangs here. They must know where the people of the Two-headed Vulture are. As long as I find one of their members, I can find a way to go up," Zhao Yao thought. "But if I want to find the local gangs …"
He thought for a moment, then looked at Lin Wanqian and asked, "Do you know where the red light district is?" The Two-headed Vulture was only a drug dealer. As an organization that controlled the human trafficking industry in several European countries, they and the local gangs were good at controlling women for prostitution.
"Ah? Ah???? " Lin Wanqian looked at Zhao Yao with a look that said, "You're actually this kind of person." She said angrily, "How would I know such a place? And … and you came all the way here just to … just to … just to … "
It was hard for her to imagine what kind of person would look for a red-light district the moment they got off the plane after a day on the plane. How energetic, no, how lecherous was this person?
Zhao Yao said helplessly, "Just take me there."
"Scumbag, go by yourself." Lin Wanqian cursed, then turned around and ran away. She did not want to stay with Zhao Yao for another second. However, after walking for more than a hundred meters, she felt a little regretful.
"It's very chaotic and dangerous here. It's not good for me to leave him here alone, right?" After thinking about it, even though she still hated him, Lin Wanqian still planned to find Zhao Yao and at least keep him in the city center.
