Chapter 140: Chapter 130: Dora C Dream
Lin Xian no longer refused and carefully stored the tiny Peace Wallet in his inner pocket, smiling:
“Do you want anything, Ning Ning? Maybe one day when I come out of New Donghai City, I can bring you a gift.”
“I don’t care for such things,” Lee Ningning chuckled indifferently:
“All I want is to blow this city up.”
“Roger that,” Lin Xian silently noted.
he found CC with her arms crossed, wearing an Ultraman mask, yet the eyes through the holes revealed a mischievous smile.
“Nothing,” CC chuckled, looking away:
“Just thinking… you seem to be quite popular with the girls.”
“Quit yapping and focus! The blind spot for surveillance is about to appear!” Big Face Cat rebuked sharply, silencing everyone.
Tensing up, he watched the drones in the sky draw closer, then slowly move away…
“Ah Zhuang! San Pang! Er Zhuzi!”
As Er Zhuzi deftly twisted and leapt, the human column completed the last link, and the human ladder was in place!
“Hurry up, you two! Be careful! And watch out for the supervisor!”
Big Face Cat bellowed till his face turned red.
CC and Lin Xian exchanged a glance, nodded, and one after the other, they climbed the human ladder and jumped in—
The pair safely landed on a pile of broken furniture and scrap.
Then immediately ran toward a cover 20 meters away, out of the drones’ surveillance range.
Lin Xian peeked at the surveillance officer in the control room; nothing was out of the ordinary. Because the Garbage Factory was noisy with various sounds, their landing didn’t stand out.
He took out the whistle from his mouth and blew a few notes.
Response soon came from Big Face Cat’s side.
After sending Lin Xian and CC into Garbage Factory 221, they were set to leave for Garbage Factory 314 to steal books.
“You’re really agile,”
CC sized up Lin Xian; it was hard to imagine that the speed and agility of a cheetah that he had just displayed could belong to such a man.
“Actually, I’m even better with a gun,” Lin Xian replied truthfully:
“It’s a pity we can’t get any guns here, so I can’t show off my skills.”
“I do have an animal tranquilizer gun, but it can’t shoot, it only works through direct contact with the skin,”
“Let’s hold onto it for now, as it’s the only weapon we have.”
As they spoke, the massive gate in the steel wall opened…
Truck after truck laden with garbage drove out from within.
“It’s this batch of garbage trucks,”
CC clipped the device resembling a Bluetooth earpiece to her ear, checking again:
“After they dump their load, they’ll head out again at 21:11 to continue transporting trash into New Donghai City, usually passing by Tem Bank. We can just pick any one.”
She pointed to a garbage truck close to them that was unloading:
“That one. It’s near us and there shouldn’t be any risk sneaking in.”
Lin Xian glanced at the surveillance officer in the middle of the Garbage Factory control room, who was not paying attention and didn’t notice their movements.
the two crawled through the heaps of trash, leaping from cover to cover, and finally made it to the targeted garbage truck.
The garbage trucks were all quite large, hence even the gaps between each part were substantial.
Especially the space at the very front of the dumpster area had a large void, but it was quite cramped for hiding two people; they had to stack up to fit in.
“You go first,” Lin Xian pointed at the gap.
“Am I on the bottom?” CC asked.
“Do you prefer the top?” Lin Xian was puzzled.
“It’s not about preferring top or bottom…” CC took out the device resembling a Bluetooth earpiece and explained:
“This thing needs some space to operate. I need to ensure there’s a gap of twenty to thirty centimeters in front of me for it to function properly; otherwise, how can I see the screen to crack the code? Therefore, it’s better if I’m on top.”
“Ah, this little matter…” Lin Xian urged:
“Just get in, and we can adjust our positions once inside. Hurry, the garbage truck is about to leave.”
CC stowed the device, climbed up, and crouched in the gap.
Lin Xian immediately followed, squeezing next to CC. But he was too tall, obviously struggling to crouch there. With no other choice, he propped himself up with his hands, halfway suspended.
“Are you… comfortable like that?”
CC looked up at the contorted Lin Xian, who was very close by.
“Do you think I would be comfortable?”
“If it’s really not working, you can press down on me,”
“Ah… Forget it, I can manage .”
the truck’s electric motor started, and it began to move slowly.
Only then did Lin Xian realize that all the garbage trucks here were no longer powered by fuel; there was none of the vibrational feeling of an internal combustion engine.
If they were powered by pure electricity… how could they possibly run non-stop for 24 hours?
They must have been using some new, clean energy source.
Lin Xian quietly raised his head.
He could still see the direction of the garbage truck’s travel through the gap on the side.
The destination was the massive steel gate up ahead.
As the garbage truck convoy drew near, the steel gate rumbled upward, and the trucks ascended a gently inclined ramp, moving forward.
Watching the trucks ahead advancing one by one, Lin Xian clenched his fist.
At last, he was getting closer to the truth.
Two soft beeps came from the device on CC’s ear.
She focused on the air about twenty to thirty centimeters in front of her, her eyes moving wildly in all directions.
“Are you cracking the security door’s code?”
CC’s eyebrows were furrowed, indicating it was not easy:
