Chapter 57 Strange Car
"Investigate Liang Group?" Gu Ming asked in disbelief after hearing Jiang Siyi's words, "Doesn't Liang Group have a cooperation with your family? Even if you don't like Liang Tao, there is no need to take revenge on him, right?"
"Am I that kind of person in your eyes?" Jiang Siyi asked back. Hearing her angry tone, Gu Ming quickly said, "Of course not, but you said you were attending a banquet before, but now you said you were investigating Liang Group. The contrast is too big, and it's hard for me to change my mood for a while."
Jiang Siyi said to Gu Ming while driving seriously, "You should know which department I am in?"
"Of course, the elite Tianxuan Department." Gu Ming said, but he thought to himself, isn't it just an intelligence department? Why do you have to come up with a high-sounding name and make special arrangements everywhere?
Jiang Siyi said, "We received intelligence that someone reported that the Liang Group was smuggling superconducting alloys."
"It's just smuggling, there's no need for Beidou to do it, right?" Gu Ming asked, "This superconducting alloy is very valuable?"
"You don't know?" This time it was Jiang Siyi's turn to be surprised, but she was relieved in a flash. As Wei Dafa said, Gu Ming seemed to be from another world. He didn't know a lot of common sense that even ordinary people knew.
Jiang Siyi explained: "Superconducting alloy is a metal discovered at the beginning of the spiritual energy revival. This metal has a perfect molecular arrangement and can withstand and conduct the spiritual power of the awakened. It is usually used to make weapons."
"Tell me something I don't know."
"Federal law stipulates that superconducting alloys are uniformly controlled by governments because of their special nature. They are given priority in supplying the front line. Smuggling and trafficking are prohibited in the private sector. Violators will face heavy penalties."
"Do you know that all human countries are continuously sending soldiers and resources to the front line under the unified dispatch of the federation? The cruelty of the front-line battle is unimaginable to you. A huge amount of resources and awakened people are consumed every day."
Gu Ming was a little shocked. This was the first time he heard about the news on the front line.
Perhaps in order not to cause unnecessary panic among the people, governments of various countries did not disclose the combat news on the front line to the general public. Everyone only knew that on the border north of Yunzhou and Zhongzhou, the federation used the natural barrier of the ocean to build the last line of defense of the human race and successfully resisted most of the monsters in the north.
But from what Jiang Siyi said, it seems that the situation on the front line is not as optimistic as most people imagine.
However, these are not what Gu Ming is considering for the time being. He only needs to know that superconducting alloys are controlled items, and if the Liang Group secretly smuggles superconducting alloys, it will have to pay a price.
Liang Group is a powerful force with extraordinary strongmen in charge. Except for Beidou, no one else can do anything to it, so Jiang Siyi needs to investigate.
"Are you responsible for such a dangerous task on your first day of work?"
"Do you think working in Beidou is a retirement?"
"Yes." Gu Ming said as a matter of course.
"But I'm not." Jiang Siyi said, his eyes revealed firmness.
Gu Ming couldn't say anything else, so he could only say in his heart: But the problem is that this has nothing to do with me, I'm just an ordinary file clerk, a civilian staff, do you know civilians, and you go to perform the mission, why do you have to drag me!
Gu Ming never thought that from the day Jiang Siyi arrived in Linjiang, their fates had been tied together.
The car sped on the highway, and after about 60 kilometers out of the city, it turned off the road into a small road.
This is a winding mountain road built along the mountain wall. There are only two lanes in both directions. The road surface has been in disrepair for a long time and is very bumpy.
Those large trucks that cannot get on the highway due to overloading usually choose to take this road. Although it is a little difficult to drive, they will not be checked until they enter the city.
Jiang Siyi parked the car on a piece of grass halfway up the mountain, and then took Gu Ming to hide in the woods.
"There is not even a light on this road." Gu Ming complained, gently pulling the branch that was poking his waist aside.
It is precisely because it is dark all around that once the headlights appear on the road, they will be very conspicuous.
"If Liang is really smuggling superconducting alloys, then they can only choose this road to enter the city." Jiang Siyi said.
Gu Ming said: "But there is more than one car on this road. How can we be sure whether it is the car of Liang Group?"
"It's very simple. The density of superconducting alloys is very high. We just need to find the kind of car that does not seem to have a small cargo capacity and does not look overweight."
If it does not look overweight, but chooses to take this bad road, it is not in line with common sense.
Gu Ming understood it as soon as he was told, but he did not focus on the passing vehicles. This was Jiang Siyi's task, not his. Even if he came to help out of courtesy, he only needed to wait until Jiang Siyi asked for help.
It would be best if he could not show up, so that the extraordinary strong men of Liang Group would not notice him, an ordinary file manager.
The result that Gu Ming most expected was that the information was false, and this trip would be in vain.
Of course, if there were no accidents, accidents would definitely occur.
After a while, Jiang Siyi reminded Gu Ming to pay attention. He saw a van coming from the corner of the mountain road below. Because the cargo compartment of this kind of car is closed, it is basically impossible to overload if it is loaded with normal goods, because it cannot be overloaded.
But Gu Ming noticed that the car was driving very slowly, and it seemed particularly strenuous when going uphill. It also tilted significantly when turning, and even one side of the tire was deformed by being pressed.
Seeing that Jiang Siyi was about to rush out to stop the car, Gu Ming hurriedly said, "Don't be anxious, what if there is a misunderstanding?"
"Are you afraid?"
"If you are not afraid, why should I be afraid?" Gu Ming pretended to be calm, but he kept repeating in his heart that if he rushed out directly, he would only be 98% sure, and it would be a death sentence.
"We have to see if there are any masters first."
After Gu Ming finished speaking, he saw him break off a branch from the side and clamp it on his fingertips. When the car passed by, he suddenly waved his hand, and Jiang Siyi felt a flash in front of his eyes, and the small branch seemed to have turned into an indestructible flying sword.
The trace it left in the air seemed to have turned into a sword energy.
However, Jiang Siyi was not surprised by Gu Ming's endless methods, and did not react much.
The branch accurately pierced the rear wheel of the car, and the branch was crushed by the tire, but the sword energy that just wrapped the branch pierced the tire silently.
After a while, the punctured tire deflated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"I didn't expect that the first time I used the Nine Heavens Sword Intentions, it would be to puncture the tire." Gu Ming laughed at himself in his heart, and then focused his attention on the stopped truck.
The car had been stopped for almost two minutes, but no one got out of it.
This is very strange. According to common sense, shouldn't you get off the car and check the safety of the tires and cargo as soon as possible? This situation can only mean one thing, that someone in the car has become alert.
