Chapter 82 Magic Metal

The next day, May 10th.

From this day on, Lanhai City began to impose martial law.

Detectives from the Public Security Bureau came out of the office and mingled with the crowd in civilian clothes. Groups of city guards patrolled the streets. Even the army stationed outside the city dispatched three combat groups to station at various important checkpoints. Soldier.

When Shen Bai goes out now, he must bring his citizen ID card and be ready to check his identity at any time.

This morning, Lanhai City issued a "movement restriction order", calling on citizens to reduce travel as much as possible during this period, and directly restricting the traffic flow on the highway.

At the same time, the "Double City Tax" implemented by the Governor Chen Jinge has finally officially announced that a 60% Twin City Tax will be levied starting from the end of this month. Although many supporting measures have also been announced, such as providing a large number of low-priced products. Fresh meat and daily necessities are available, but citizens’ resentment still cannot be suppressed.

If Chen Jinge hadn't always been known for being "majestic and brutal," I'm afraid the citizens of Lanhai would have ignored the movement control order and rushed to the streets to protest.

But Shen Bai didn't feel any panic or resentment at all. He didn't know or understand Chen Jinge, but he trusted the base commander Du Shanfeng.

Du Shanfeng once chatted with Shen Bai about Chen Jinge and admired him very much:

"Our guardian envoy is not only highly skilled in martial arts, he is also a throne-level powerhouse, and has been named [King of Nine Heavens]. He is also extremely thoughtful and decisive in his actions. The first time he entered the old land with the army, he dared to rely on a single Xiaocao's strangeness followed him all the way, found the hiding place of the Alpha-level abnormality, and killed it brazenly!"

"At that time, he was only nineteen years old, but he was already a martial arts master!"

"However, no one is perfect. The shortcoming of the Guardian Envoy... is that he is a bit too domineering. When encountering problems, he will act according to his own wishes and others cannot persuade him at all. However, his loyalty to human beings is absolutely nothing to say. It’s a very extreme [human supremacist]!”

Because of Du Shanfeng, Shen Bai is willing to believe in this guardian and believes that everything he does has deep meaning.

——If one day Li Xiaorui gave Shen Bai something that looked like shit and smelled like shit and said it was a honey cake, Shen Bai would taste it with hesitation.

The young orphan feels that "being able to trust others" is a happy thing in itself.

However, movement restrictions are of no use to Jushi Group. As a supplier of "grey non-ferrous metals", one of the important raw materials for the contract tunnel, they have obtained the right to transport goods in the urban area.

Shen Bai stood under the glass window of Jushi Group and looked at the heavy trucks that kept setting off from the group building. They shuttled through Lanhai City like ants, running everywhere.

"Boss Xiao..." Shen Bai felt a little strange and couldn't help asking:

"Why don't you transport these non-ferrous metals directly out of the city? Instead, they are loaded on trucks and driven around?"

Xiao Li laughed. His two-meter tall figure not only did not make people feel oppressive, but also gave him a cute and honest look:

"Brother Shen, this involves the secret of the [Contract Tunnel]... I don't know the details, but because of the non-ferrous metal in the gray sky, I can guess something."

He took out a gray metal cube from his desk and threw it to Shen Bai:

"This is Gray Kong Non-ferrous Metal. Squeeze it hard, Brother Shen."

Shen Bai nodded and squeezed the metal cube hard.

With the force of external squeezing, this small square with a side length of three centimeters began to fade, and the gray gradually became lighter, and finally approached silver-white.

"This is one of the characteristics of gray empty non-ferrous metals. When encountering power, it absorbs power and stores power!" Xiao Li sighed:

"As the absorbed power gradually increases, its gray color will gradually fade, and when it reaches a critical point, it will be released, causing an impact or even an explosion!"

"When using this thing, you must pay attention to the color change at all times. It is a top-notch power transmission material and energy storage material. It has a wide range of uses. Blue Ocean has purchased so many gray non-ferrous metals. I think the operation of the contract tunnel will generate strong pressure..."

While listening, Shen Bai looked at the silver-white metal in his hand, thoughtfully.

Then he moved the small metal piece to his left hand, took a deep breath, and tightened his fingers with all his strength.

Click, click, click——

A thin sound sounded, and after a few seconds, the metal cube turned transparent!

Xiao Li next to him shrank his pupils, looked at Shen Bai's gloved left hand, and sighed:

"...Awesome! This small gray empty metal cube is 9 cubic centimeters. It will only become transparent after it carries more than nine tons of force! Brother Shen has not yet become a warrior, but he has such a grip... maybe five months There will really be a place for you in the crazy October after."

"Boss Xiao, please stop flattering me."

Shen Bai let go and played with the metal cube. Although it had become transparent, he could actually feel its edges and corners.

After the fall of the First Stone, nature has indeed produced many incredible things.

"In short, we have transported these gray and empty non-ferrous metals to every corner of the city and handed them over to professionals for processing. The weight is accurate to grams! Hey, to be honest, to do this you not only need strong strength, but you must also be from Lanhai City!"

Xiao Li patted his chest, feeling quite proud.

Shen Bai nodded, knowing what he meant.

——The Gray Sky non-ferrous metal is a bit unsafe. If the force is great, it is likely to explode. Special care needs to be taken when transporting it to the urban area. The company undertaking this task must also be trustworthy. Xiao Li, a man with a history of public security , has great advantages.

At this moment, the secretary came over and whispered a few words next to Xiao Li. After hearing this, Boss Xiao waved his hand and said casually:

"Okay, let that kid come in, keep an eye on him, and don't let him flirt with you here or there."

Shen Bai stood up sensibly and said with a smile:

"Boss Xiao, let me go to the martial arts room first..."

"Oh, no need, it's that guy Li Xiaorui! He's here to find you."

"Oh, brother Rui."

Shen Bai sat down and continued to play with the transparent metal cube in his hand.

These days, the key to Shen Bai and Boss Xiao getting closer and closer is Li Xiaorui.

One is a friend who has performed a mission together, and the other is the son of a colleague who protected him more than ten years ago. Both of them are very familiar with Li Xiaorui.

——Occasionally sharing embarrassing stories about Li Xiaorui made Shen Bai and Xiao Li more and more fond of each other.

After the knock on the door, Li Xiaorui walked in.

"Uncle Xiao." Li Xiaorui said hello honestly, and then winked at Shen Bai.

Unfortunately, Boss Xiao still frowned and began to scold:

"Xiao Rui, I'm not talking about you as an uncle. We have all heard about what you have done in public security over the years. You don't want to make progress! You don't know how to make progress! You even use your power for personal gain!"

"You have to know that you also swore an oath under the Federation back then..."

Li Xiaorui sneered with his head drooped, no longer as cheerful and lively as usual.
