This peculiar situation, without Ren Yuanhao's keen eyesight, would have been impossible to capture from frame to frame of the footage.
Just then, the man sitting below the television and another man with greying hair began to tease.
"Hey, what number incident is this this month?"
"Don't know, probably the sixth at least."
"Always feel like things aren't quite peaceful lately. The south gate is the weak point of Tianyu, I'm scared~"
"Don't talk nonsense, this is Tianyu territory."
After saying this, the two glanced around somewhat fearfully. Ren Yuanhao naturally withdrew his gaze and gestured. The two waiting young ladies immediately hurried over.
"Esteemed guest, what are your needs?"
"Do you have a local map, and also, what is this city called?"
Ren Yuanhao was extremely curious. He had paid attention all the way last night, but he couldn't find any street signs or advertisements with the city's name.
One young lady went to get the map, while the other began to explain, "It's like this, this city is called Shenlou."
"Shenlou?" Ren Yuanhao thought to himself that the name was quite interesting, but in the desert, such a modern metropolis suddenly appearing would make anyone think it was a mirage.
"Yes, most of the citizens here are from all over the country. Except for the first group who entered and developed Shenlou, others can only enter if they are destined."
While speaking, the map was brought by the young lady. Without a word, Ren Yuanhao directly spread out the map and looked towards the south.
Compared to the other three sides, the architecture on the south side of the map suddenly became chaotic and much less dense than the other three sides. What's more strange is that some key road signs were extremely blurry, and there were even two city gates. The entire south side was like the stick extending from the outer edge of a lollipop, extending outward for more than ten kilometers before another city wall appeared.
"The south side looks so strange."
The two young ladies seemed to have anticipated Ren Yuanhao's question. After a long consideration, they stammered, "Actually, there were two groups who first developed this city. Later, for some reason, they had a falling out. Most of the real power in the south fell into the hands of the 'Nanming' Group. That area is quite chaotic and is called the slum by people from other sides, also known as the outer city of Shenlou."
Ren Yuanhao nodded silently, then pointed to that narrow area and asked, "And what is this narrow area here?"
Upon hearing Ren Yuanhao pointing to the narrow area, the faces of the two women turned pale again.
However, it seemed unreasonable not to answer the esteemed guest's question. So, one of them mustered up the courage and said, "It was built a month ago. It is said to be the secret base of the Nanming Group."
With this information alone, Ren Yuanhao could already imagine a scene of power struggle between the two sides, and he also realized why the Tianyu Group valued him so much. It turned out that it was all for "profit."
After all, in this era, all the bustling world comes for profit, and all the bustling world goes for profit. Da Feng Novel Network
He suspected that the grand fireworks display last night was not just to welcome esteemed guests, but more like a show of force!
A show of force against the Nanming Corporation.
The two women observed the changes in Ren Yuanhao's expression, feeling uneasy.
Just then, Ren Yuanhao seemed to smell a very faint scent of gardenia.
The three of them turned their heads together. They saw Yi Die, dressed in an English-style suit, walking carefully on high heels, supporting herself against the wall in the inner corridor. She limped her way to the entrance.
Seeing this, the two girls did not delay and hurried over to help Yi Die. However, there were already people eating breakfast in the hotel lobby. When these people saw Yi Die, they could no longer hold back their laughter, and sneers erupted.
"It's all because of these shoes, they're always uncomfortable and make me twist my ankle." Yi Die's temper flared up, and she directly snapped off the heel of her shoes, which cost thousands of dollars!
Fortunately, she had a great attitude and didn't care about the opinions of those around her. She put on her shoes, walked with swagger, and with heroic spirit, went to Ren Yuanhao's side.
"How is it, are you impressed by my aura?"
Seeing this, Ren Yuanhao cupped his hands and said, "I concede defeat. By the way, can you take off those things on your face? You look like a mummy."
"What is a mummy?"
"It's an Egyptian zombie."
"Do those things really exist?" Once Yi Die's curiosity was piqued, she would start asking questions one after another. But this time was different; she only asked this one question and then immediately stopped, frowning, and sternly said, "Are you indirectly calling me ugly?"
Ren Yuanhao thought to himself, with such a fierce young lady, if she were to draw her sword at him in public, wouldn't he be embarrassed?
"No, no, no, it's a unique kind of beauty, post-modern beauty, but this beauty is not easily recognized by the public, so~"
"So it's still ugly?"
Yi Die's frown did not relax at all.
"No, no, no, in front of this stinking man like me, you are naturally beautiful, okay?"
Ren Yuanhao used his trump card – self-deprecation. Only then did he slightly alleviate Yi Die's anger. However, this series of conversations indeed made the women beside him giggle.
However, speaking of which, Ren Yuanhao had actually examined Yi Die carefully just now. After changing her attire, this young lady's figure was far better than he had imagined. The chivalrous aura was reduced by seven parts, but a few parts of feminine tenderness were added. Not only that, the swaying skirt made her look neither too fat nor too thin; with even a little more or less, she wouldn't appear so perfect.
But, that mummy-like face~
Ren Yuanhao sighed. Yi Die was naturally fooled by him. Then, she looked at the various pastries on the table and could no longer care about anything else. She pulled down the gauze from her mouth, revealing only her mouth, and began to feast.
After eating, not long after, Fang Dasheng arrived punctually. Ren Yuanhao got into the Maybach, and Yi Die, as usual, got into the grand carriage, and they headed straight for the Tianyu headquarters.
At this time, on the top of the tallest building in the city center, a large, bright circular reflector emitted a cold and lonely light.
The shape of this building was somewhat similar to a twin tower, but the decoration at the top was quite peculiar. According to internal explanations, this decoration was used for signal transmission.
The rooftop still looked heavy and oppressive. The two leaned on the railing, watching the vehicles below moving like ants. An old man with white hair stroked his beard and said, "It is a time of turmoil. Does my son have any plans to deal with it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind rose, lifting the hair beside the old man. The man's entire face was somewhat transparently white. If one got close enough, one could even see the winding meridians on it. "I am waiting for someone. After meeting him, the solution will naturally present itself."
