Chapter 879 I Haven’t Thought of a Chapter Title Yet
"This is the correct cargo number, but due to the sanctions, these two batches of goods were stopped at the transfer station. Only in this way can I bring them in."
Lei Yun took out two cargo bills folded into small pieces from his pocket and handed them to the officer.
"..." After reading the two genuine goods lists, the officer's expression suddenly became serious. After looking at Lei Yun twice, he gestured to his soldiers, who immediately said: They spread out and guarded several entrances to the yard.
The officer took out a dagger from his pocket, pried open the cover of a wooden box, and used the tip of the knife to remove the plastic foam covering the goods. Dozens of them were covered with oil film and arranged neatly and seamlessly. The steel pipe appeared in front of him.
"Hiss..." Although the officer was already prepared, he couldn't help but gasped after seeing the goods, and then he speeded up and checked the remaining boxes one by one.
"Are these goods...all coming in through the green channel of the logistics office?" The officer turned his head and asked Lei Yun.
"Otherwise, I don't like the feeling of being forced to interrupt the business halfway, and the profit of this batch of goods is huge, so it is worth taking the risk." Lei Yun said in a calm tone.
"This batch of goods is very important to us... I know what it costs to go through the green channel of the logistics office, and we will replenish the money to you..."
"There is no need for compensation. Let me see Qin." Lei Yun interrupted the officer and said.
"...You want to see the consul?" The officer was stunned for a moment and stared at Lei Yun in surprise.
"My name is Lei Yun, just tell him this name."
"The Archon is very busy right now. If you want to discuss business matters, I will introduce you to the Archon's assistant..."
"I already said, just tell him my name. Let him decide for himself whether he wants to see me or not." Lei Yun strengthened her tone and emphasized again.
"Okay, I will convey this news to the Archon, but you'd better not have too much hope... In addition, my men will take you to a safe place. Before leaving the Sixth District, you You must obey our instructions and don't wander around. This is for your own good. If you want to leave, then you ask the soldiers to inform me and I will arrange a train for you." The officer nodded and turned around and left. Immediately afterwards, a female soldier wearing a black mask came over and motioned for Lei Yun to follow her.
Lei Yun was taken to a hotel converted from a private house. After settling in a room, the female soldier pulled out a .45-caliber semi-automatic pistol and a magazine and handed them to Lei Yun.
"You use this thing for self-defense. Although we will try our best to prevent you from using it, it is better to be somewhat prepared than unarmed."
Lei Yun's own pistol was handed over to the logistics office for safekeeping when she passed through the "green channel". Now she can indeed be considered unarmed.
"Is the situation in District Six already so serious? Even my safety cannot be guaranteed?" Lei Yun took the pistol and asked.
"Just in case. As for other things, you'd better not ask anything. I won't tell you if you ask. In addition, I suggest you not to leave this room. The bathroom is over there. Is there anything in the cabinet that has been opened? If you are in a hurry, you can just knock on the door and I will be outside." After the female soldier finished speaking, she walked out of the room, turned around and closed the door.
"You actually gave me a pistol for self-defense..." Lei Yun looked at the weapon in her hand and muttered to herself - you know, even in a shelter with the most chaotic security, you would not be so nervous, and Judging from what Lei Yun saw in the sixth area, not only did the entire sixth area show no signs of chaos, but it was extremely orderly. If this was the case, then why did the female soldier give the pistol to herself?
Is this just the calm before the storm?
Various conjectures kept popping up in Lei Yun's heart, but she rejected them one by one. She really didn't understand why Qin did all this, and why the organization's attitude towards Qin was so special... …
Whether it's expanding the private army or building city walls, these actions are no different from open rebellion. Why...why didn't the organization take any measures against the Sixth District, just a sanction order?
And the reason for the sanctions order was because Qin Fang escaped a wanted criminal of the organization?
Based on the information Lei Yun currently has, the whole matter is full of doubts. She feels as if she is trapped in a thick fog and can only stumble forward.
She came here, firstly, for the batch of goods, secondly, to satisfy her curiosity, and thirdly...naturally, it was because of that strange feeling that she couldn't quite figure out. But the problem was, the whole situation seemed to be different from what she had imagined. It was completely different. She had a feeling that this matter had reached a point where she could not control it.
No, it's not just that she can't control it... the situation in the Sixth District is probably difficult for the Lei family... and even the entire organization to control. Otherwise, with the desire for control of the council, how could Qin be allowed to do whatever he wants here.
Choosing to do business with Qin was an extremely risky step. Although Qin and the Sixth District brought huge profits to Lei Yun's business during this period, behind this profit, there seemed to be endless hidden dangers. Endless trouble...
Maybe he should listen to his uncle's advice and break up with that guy from now on. However, since he has come, Lei Yun is really unwilling to leave without asking him face to face.
She walked around the room a few times, sat by the bed for a while, then walked to the window and opened the curtains made of crimson velvet——
The window has been completely sealed, and it is also sealed with bulletproof armor plates. The edges and the window frame are completely welded together, and even a sledgehammer cannot be used to break it open.
"As for..." Lei Yun curled her lips, turned back to the bed, and opened the drawer of the bedside table.
Empty... This room had been completely emptied before she came in. Except for the bedding on the bed, toilet paper in the toilet, some toiletries, and the food and water prepared in the cabinet, there was nothing here. Hotel rooms in this era are much cleaner.
Lei Yun began to pay attention to the corners of the room again, trying to find some surveillance cameras or monitors, but when she was halfway through checking, the door was suddenly opened from the outside. .
The officer walked in and said to her: "Miss Lei, the consul has agreed to meet with you."
