In those days of Plants vs. Zombies

"Another visitor?"

Mo Chen blinked, then turned his head to look in the direction of Xiaoda's finger.

At some point, dozens of fully armed plant spirit warriors and several modified vehicles appeared at the entrance of Manor No. 5905.

The leader of this team was a tall woman wearing a conical hat and a straw raincoat.

As if noticing Mo Chen's gaze, the other party turned his head slightly, and the pair of red eyes under the bamboo hat met Mo Chen's gaze.

"My dear, that is the same being as me."

Rosemary appeared beside Mo Chen and whispered a reminder to her owner.

"Shovel android?"

"Ah."

Mo Chen shifted his gaze to the modified vehicles nearby, which seemed to be tall trucks.

Printed on those cargo compartments were four Chinese characters that seemed quite familiar to Mo Chen?

"Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce?"

Reading out the Chinese characters on the cargo compartment one by one, Mo Chen instantly understood the origin of this team.

Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce was founded by Qingqiu Shiyu, the owner of Manor No. 5998.

Judging from the appearance of this team, it must be the armed caravan under the Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce.

Mo Chen heard that these armed caravans from Manor No. 5998 would patrol around War Zone No. 59, and when passing through the war manor, they would apply to the owner of the manor for a short stay.

During the caravan's stay, the owners of each war manor can trade with the caravan in exchange for a variety of high-quality and low-priced goods.

As we all know, not all homeowners enjoy going out to Dave’s store to shop.

Some homeowners are worried about the risks along the way, some are lazy and don't like to go out, and some are simply too far away from the shops to go at all.

At this time, these caravans played a very important role.

They are equivalent to door-to-door service stores, meeting the material needs of many homeowners.

"Excuse me, is this Manor No. 5905? Are you the owner of Manor No. 5905?"

The woman in the bamboo hat, who seemed to be an Iron Shovel android, came in front of Mo Chen and asked him respectfully.

"Yes, this is Manor No. 5905, and I am Xuan Mo Su Chen, the owner of Manor No. 5905."

Mo Chen nodded and opened his portable terminal to prove his identity.

"We are an armed caravan from the Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce in Manor No. 5998. Could you allow us to stay in your manor community for a day to rest?

In return, if you want to trade with this caravan, you will enjoy a 20% discount."

A sudden event was triggered, and the woman in the bamboo hat asked Mo Chen to let the caravan stay temporarily.

Considering that the arrival of the caravan would be beneficial and harmless and would also promote a wave of economic development, Mo Chen immediately nodded and allowed the armed caravan to enter the community.

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Master."

After getting Mo Chen's permission, the woman in the bamboo hat first expressed her gratitude, and then immediately called the caravan behind her to let them enter the community of Manor No. 5905 in an orderly manner.

"Xiao Da, go inform the residents of the manor and other plant spirit warriors and tell them that the armed caravan from Manor No. 5998 has arrived here.

If you want to spend money, you can take this opportunity to buy some of the goods you want. "

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Xiaoda teleported away and prepared to start broadcasting to announce the good news.

Mo Chen, who allowed the caravan to enter the community, also planned to return to his residence to rest for a while before going to the caravan to see if there were any goods worth buying.

Just as Mo Chen was about to leave with Rosemary, the woman in the bamboo hat suddenly walked towards Mo Chen quickly.

Rosemary frowned, immediately stopped in front of the other person, and asked, "What do you want?"

"Mr. Master, I have something I must explain to you."

The woman in the bamboo hat realized that her behavior was somewhat offensive, and immediately took a few steps back, keeping a distance from Mo Chen and Rosemary.

"whats the matter?"

Mo Chen was also completely confused and asked curiously.

The woman in the bamboo hat turned around and confirmed that the caravan had left. Then she spoke solemnly:

"It's about smuggling caffeine."

······

After the detailed explanation from the woman in the bamboo hat, Mo Chen finally understood the whole story.

Not long ago, Qingqiu Shiyu dispatched a sub-caravan under the Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce to open up a new trade route outside War Zone No. 59.

Qingqiu Shiyu attached great importance to this operation, and even asked the iron shovel android "Stranger", also known as the woman in the bamboo hat, from Manor No. 5998 to personally escort the sub-caravan all the way.

The operation of opening up a new trade route went very smoothly. The sub-caravan successfully broke through the interception and blockade of the imperial forces, arrived outside the war zone, and transported a batch of new goods back to War Zone No. 59.

But while inspecting the goods, Mo Ke discovered that some caffeine had been mixed into the goods.

It was obvious that someone wanted to use the Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce's armed caravan to smuggle caffeine.

If not discovered, the caffeine will be successfully smuggled into the hands of criminals and become a tool for them to make profits.

Once the matter is exposed, the caravan that inadvertently transported the caffeine will become a scapegoat, damaging the reputation and interests of the Qingqiu Chamber of Commerce.

But the stranger who discovered the caffeine did not alert the enemy, but contacted his landlord directly.

After careful discussion with Qingqiu Shiyu, they made the following decision.

First of all, this matter needs to be kept confidential and other members of the caravan must not be informed.

Secondly, the caravan still followed the original route back to Manor 5998, stopping at the war manors along the way to avoid alerting the enemy.

Finally, the Stranger will inform the owners of each manor and ask them to help investigate the matter and find out who will come to collect the caffeine for subsequent smuggling.

At present, under the supervision of Stranger, the sub-caravan has passed through two war estates, and the caffeine has not been taken away by anyone.

What is certain is that smugglers outside the war zone mixed caffeine into the caravan's cargo and then notified their contacts in the war zone to pick it up.

To find the contact person in a war manor in the war zone, the cooperation of all the owners is naturally needed.

"Caffeine smuggling? Got it. I'll assist you in investigating this matter."

For some reason, when Mo Ke mentioned caffeine, the first person Mo Chen thought of was his own Sophia.

Thinking back to the child in his family who seemed to be a little abnormal, Mo Chen's worry gradually welled up in his heart.

"Sophia, you must not have anything to do with this caffeine..."

······

At this moment, in the medical center, in Sophia's office.

After finishing a long psychological consultation, Sophia breathed a sigh of relief with some tiredness.

The few days at Manor No. 5905 made her feel very relaxed. The atmosphere here was even better than when she was working at the Federal 59th Army Base.

After all, no one here will discriminate against you, and everyone will be kind to you.

During this period, Sophia's symptoms did not relapse, which made her relax a little.

"Maybe if I keep going like this, I can atone for my sins."

Just as Sophia took the coffee prepared for other colleagues in the medical center from under the coffee machine, she suddenly received a message on her mobile phone.

"The goods have arrived, hurry up and pick them up, otherwise you won't get your share this month.

Since joining the organization, you have not successfully completed even one mission. This is your last chance. Don't let me down.

Three days later, I will go to your manor, and if you fail to complete the task, I will personally send you to our paradise."

The cup in Sophia's hand fell to the ground, and the scalding coffee spilled all over the floor.

Even though her feet were burned by coffee, Sophia didn't make any sound.

She just stared blankly at the message on the screen, and the wings that were originally standing upright behind her drooped down instantly.

Sophia gave a wry smile and silently curled herself up in the corner under the desk.

It seemed that only in this way could she feel a little warmth again in this dark world.

"As expected, I still can't escape?"
