The weapon refiner is not doing her job properly

Chapter 54 Luxury Sightseeing Train (5)

The man's apron showed the exclusive sleeve buttons of a luxury sightseeing train, which no one else had. Shen Zhaoming guessed that this person had a certain status in the kitchen.

Shen Zhaoming pulled the two of them back to a corner.

Having done bad things more than once, Shen Zhaoming also wanted to use some despicable means to achieve his goal, and his eight hundred tricks finally found a place to be used.

"We may need to learn the captain's technique of borrowing objects." He lowered his voice, his lens reflecting the rapidly passing lake outside the window.

But they did not have Su Ninglong's amazing stealing skills, and he had not learned any illegal operations beyond book knowledge.

Do it or not?
A silver-gilt divination coin shot into the air, creating a silver arc in the warm yellow light of the carriage.

"Playing divination again, is it useful?" Lei Qingya found it difficult to understand Shen Zhaoming's insistence.

"Don't worry, just think of it as a way for me to relax."

Lei Qingya took a deep breath and gently stroked the gun hanging around his waist. The cold metal texture eased his anxiety.

After Shen Zhaoming threw and caught five times, he concluded: "The direction is correct, but it is auspicious or ominous."

"Come and listen." He waved and told his plan in their ears.

Lei Qingya's face was strange. "Mo Gui, you've become a bad person. If this happened in real life, you'd be sued."

"I think it's pretty good." Sally was excited. "It's cool, much more interesting than feeding sheep."

A twelve-year-old girl who follows the rules at school secretly hopes to do something rebellious.

Lei Qingya patted her head lovingly. The good thing about being young is that you don’t feel guilty about doing bad things.

"When will the action begin?"

"Now." Shen Zhaoming's eyebrows suddenly became sharp. He needed to improve, become a hunter, and then become an important member of the Star Alliance.

Half an hour had passed and they were unable to determine which area of ​​the train was contaminated. The sooner they completed the task, the better.

After saying that, they took action immediately.

The cold storage area is much larger than the kitchen. After all, it needs to supply food for nearly a hundred people for two days, so the cold storage cannot be too small.

It is now the peak time for the kitchen to prepare dishes, but there are not many waiters coming and going, only waiters pushing food carts come over.

Before they start the action, they keep observing and try to eliminate all unexpected factors to ensure the smooth operation.

A waiter pushing a dining cart appeared from another carriage. The friction between the wheel hub and the floor was a bit harsh in the silent corridor.

It was the first time they took the initiative to do something bad, and the slightest movement would make their hearts beat faster.

The waitress stopped and asked, "Do you need any help, sir? Would you like something to eat?" She opened the lid of a carved clay pot, and the soup inside was still boiling.

The tempting aroma of star anise and fermented bean curd wafted out, and the soft chicken feet were paired with a rich and sticky amber sauce. The three people's mouths couldn't help but drool.

"It's okay to eat a little bit." Sally sniffed and suddenly retracted her hand that was about to reach out.

Although she wanted to be a bad girl, it didn't mean she would do something stupid like putting her bare hands into boiling soup.

Shen Zhaoming lowered his head, staring at the chicken feet. When his glasses were about to fall off his nose, he pushed them up.

The lenses were covered with a layer of mist, blocking my vision, and I was able to suppress the urge to pick up the chicken feet with chopsticks.

"We want to continue our tour. It won't taste good if it gets cold. You should put it back."

The click of the waiter closing the lid startled the other two.

"If the guests want to eat, they can ask the kitchen to bring it to the restaurant. They can eat at any time within two hours." The waiter smiled and continued to push the food cart forward, then turned his back to them and left.

Lei Qingya swallowed hard, "We absolutely cannot eat those foods." The aroma from the pot of chicken feet made her stomach cramp.

"The dwarf didn't let us eat just now, but now the waiter lets us eat. Could the dwarf be a survivor?" Sally guessed.

Without Su Ninglong by his side, Shen Zhaoming expressed his opinion more bluntly: "Dwarves are not as resistant to secret spirits as the ancient people. They are generally the race that is contaminated the fastest."

Net hunting and logistics are generally carried out by Huafu people, Green Scale people, and Xingqi people, but it is not ruled out that some dwarves can break through the siege.

After thinking it over carefully, Shen Zhaoming couldn't rule out this possibility. He said, "If we meet that dwarf again, we can try to contact him."

Sally smiled brightly. It was enough for her that Shen Zhaoming accepted her proposal.

This time, it might be her last net hunting operation. After signing up to study logistics, she will be tasked with cleaning up the areas contaminated by mysterious spirits in the future.

She estimated that there would not be many opportunities to come into contact with the secret spirit, so she had to cherish it and do her best.

The dining car waiters all had their backs to them, and the people in the kitchen were busy with their own things.

The three of them stopped back at carriage number eight.

Sally, who was in charge of lookout, gave them a thumbs up to confirm that no one would pass by in the short term. Lei Qingya, the most agile of the three, took action.

She jumped up on the spot, like a muscular and restrained leopard, lightly touching the ceiling.

Her waist, wrapped in a nano-combat suit, was bent into a full bow in mid-air. She clasped the opening of the ventilation duct above with one finger, and with the other hand wearing a thick glove, she held up the Shadow (a silent thermal melt knife whose blade released ultra-high frequency microwaves). She cut the vent's fan blades a little bit.

Then he quickly threw a small liquid nitrogen bottle into the vent. The stopper of the liquid nitrogen bottle required some force to pull out the safety wire, but the safety wire was not long enough.

Sally whispered, "Someone's coming."

Lei Qingya's fingers on both hands were almost numb from clenching her hands. She pushed the bottom of the liquid nitrogen bottle to jam it, and then pulled the safety wire. This pull almost froze her fingers, which were not wearing thick gloves, into popsicles.

Fortunately, there is a nano suit package.

At Sally's urging, she jumped down and quickly ran to the kitchen.

The liquid nitrogen quickly filled the vent, causing the temperature sensor to malfunction.

A shrill fault alarm sounded in the carriage.

The kitchen was busy with the chefs who looked up at the same time, and the crowd came out and rushed to the corridor as if attracted by a magnet, wanting to see what was going on.

Lei Qingya and Sally rushed towards the chefs, aimed at the chef who had just entered the cold storage room, bumped into him shoulder to shoulder, and hit him with skillful force.

There were people all around, and the chef couldn't even hide. He stumbled and fell into the arms of a young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.

The young man helped him up, "Be careful."

"No...it's okay. Thank you."

"You're welcome." The young man with gold-rimmed glasses smiled and turned to leave.

While everyone's attention was diverted, they slipped into the cold storage.

Lei Qingya slammed the door shut with a backhanded movement as smooth as loading a pistol, his fingertips trembling slightly from the cold. "Well done, Mo Gui. A textbook example of a diversionary tactic." Lei Qingya patted Shen Zhaoming's shoulder, his expression excited. "I think this approach suits us very well."

A blush appeared on Shen Zhaoming's cheeks. They usually followed the rules of net hunting.

In fact, this small-scale bad behavior does not exceed the scope of the charter.

No one taught me before, and at most I could only see cold text descriptions on the Internet. Moreover, most people would not show off such sneaky things.

Even if it was really shown off, there is no way to tell whether it was made up by someone else or it really happened.

Shen Zhaoming and the other two usually discuss various strategies together and also discuss how to act.

But when you actually get into the simulator, it's a completely different scene.

In the face of variables, all pre-planned actions are not as good as improvisation.

Sally clutched her clothes, her earrings glowing blue in the cold.

"We're broadcasting live. Will we be caught pushing that chef..." Her voice trembled.

So she's afraid too? This proves that the Star Alliance's moral education has finally paid off, with the exception of a few recalcitrant individuals.

Lei Qingya: "Don't be afraid, little princess, there's always a process of adaptation."

"Yes, adapt to it. After this semester is over, you will realize the true side of the Star Alliance." Although Shen Zhaoming is not a student of the Star Alliance, he understands the Star Alliance.

On the surface, it seems beautiful and peaceful, and people are happy to invest resources to support their children's growth.

There are many tricks behind this, but reality is reality. There are no such things as good deeds.

The selection process for true Star Alliance Hunters is brutal. "Out of a hundred Star Alliance students, only one might be chosen by the Inner Alliance and receive top student treatment. Even that chosen one might not necessarily become the Seed Hunter the Star Alliance hopes for."

Therefore, hunters who graduate from the Star Alliance Academy are bound to be elites. They are usually sent to carry out secret missions and do not often appear in the public eye.

It is conceivable that the truly powerful star hunters are all very busy, and being able to take the net hunters on real missions is the most luxurious moment that the net hunters can enjoy.

Lei Qingya was also adapting to the slight psychological pressure caused by doing something bad.

If her father knew that she had destroyed public property and colluded with others to steal things, he would definitely be furious, even in the simulator. He believed that the daughter of the Lei family must be a civilized and gentle lady.

Lei Qingya was rebellious and loved to rebel against her father. She didn't like what her father said, and even though her father didn't allow her to contact the secret spirits, she insisted.

If she could have entered the Star Alliance for further studies, she would have done so long ago.

Thinking of this, Lei Qingya couldn't help but become even more indignant. He picked up a knife and violently dismantled the sealed cardboard box in the warehouse. When he opened it, he saw chicken feet.

The cold air formed ice crystals on Lei Qingya's eyelashes. She rubbed her eyes and then opened a box. The blade rubbed against the frozen tape, making a teeth-grinding sound.

When I opened the box, I saw cow hooves.

Here comes another box of trotters from an unknown animal.

Of course, vegetables and various sauces are indispensable.

"If you take all this food on the train, you can sit in court as a defendant at any time."

Lei Qingya knew exactly what her father's circle liked to eat. They even used tweezers to remove the fascia from the steak and were unwilling to eat the leftovers.

"This is too much."

The food we eat must be purchased by people, and it must also be approved by the head chef, and finally loaded onto the train and inspected.

"Search quickly, I'm thinking, give me some time." Shen Zhaoming inserted his gloved fingers between the chicken claws and the box, prying it open to take a look.

He frowned, there must be a reason for choosing this topic. What was it?

Sally was assigned to keep watch at the door. She had good hearing and could hear footsteps through the door.

They searched box after box of frozen meat, and soon finished searching through more than ten boxes of meat.

There was still a box at the top that had not been taken down, so Lei Qingya pulled over the mobile ladder and used force to take down a box from the top shelf.

This box is different from the other boxes. It has a black shell and a hard object between cardboard and metal. It is locked and has no instructions.

"Mo Gui, come and see." Lei Qingya didn't dare to open it for a moment. Although she was a bit reckless, she didn't look like a fool after completing fifty copies.

Shen Zhaoming put down the box of pig's trotters he had been rummaging through, took off his glasses, and scanned the box.

His glasses are the Omniscient Observer OS9000, which have the ability to observe matter and conduct analysis.

[Warning: XXX-level shielding material detected, containing ghost anti-peeping material, which is commonly used to isolate radioactive materials and make dry powder (this item is not circulated on the market, so the full name cannot be displayed).]

"The Qiankun Shrine?" The Qiankun Shrine is not useful for online hunting, but it is well-known in the hunter circle. Lei Qingya also collected two of them, hoping to use them one day.

To contain the secret spirit, you don’t actually need the Qiankun Shrine, but using the Qiankun Shrine can reduce the failure of containment.

"Could there be a secret spirit inside?" Sally asked, "Should we open it?"

The cold light in the cold storage reflected a strange halo on the surface of the black box. Lei Qingyi couldn't help but touch the texture on the surface of the box.

As a collector of Qiankun shrines, she is quite familiar with this material.

Lei Qingya leaned towards opening it. She was curious about what was inside. If it was a secret spirit, they could easily destroy it before it grew.

Shen Zhaoming said seriously: "I don't know either, but we can't open it."

The reason why they often fail in their missions is that they often confuse the main mission with destroying the secret spirit. After all, the purpose of their entering the simulator is to destroy the secret spirit.

But the system always gives them other tasks, such as going through many obstacles to get something or save someone.

In fact, this does not conform to the mentality of the players, but this is the task. They always have to give up one thing and cannot lose sight of the other.

"What if there's an insignificant boss inside? If we don't kill the boss, what's the point of playing the net hunt?"

Those who show off their achievements online love to say this, and Lei Qingya is no exception.

"The captain is the one who's not doing his job properly." Shen Zhaoming held her shoulder. "She should make the decision. I've already sent her a message."

"She's not here, and you're the deputy captain." Lei Qingya was eager to act. She was very anxious to do things and was eager for results. She didn't understand why she couldn't find out the truth immediately if there were any clues.

Lei Qingya's knuckles turned slightly white as she held the box, and she suddenly felt a pulsation coming from inside.

"Open it, open it..." Tempting whispers emerged in Lei Qingya's heart, and the tip of her knife unknowingly rested on the lock.

"Don't touch it. Put it back first," Shen Zhaoming ordered. "If you don't obey my orders, we will disband. The updated regulations not only require us to have good moral character, but also obedience. This reform of the Star Alliance to net hunting indicates that the Star Alliance will formally formulate hunter assessment standards. The assessment of hunters will only become more and more strict in the future. If you don't want to lose your qualification, put it down."
