Doom: Start with a tech panel

Chapter 43 Black Market
R&D bases are important, but looking for them blindly without a head is definitely not worth the loss. Not to mention wasting time, you will also expose yourself.Although the fat man has already told everything he knows, he still has value.

Since the platinum-level mecha uses some parts and control units of ordinary robots, the energy aspect must be a headache for Cui.

His own black iron mech was purchased from the technology panel, which has sufficient energy and is not used frequently, so Chen Wei has not thought about the problem of energy supply.

When his black iron mech was fighting the Killer, the battery life was still 43%.

Master Xiong makes mechas himself, and he is very proficient. He should have thought of and solved the energy problem.

Now we only need to start from the energy aspect, I believe there will be a breakthrough soon.

The energy of mecha machines is supplied formally, and only one group company can sell them in a city. KM City is naturally the largest city group controlling the lifeline of energy.

Where does Lao Cui get energy from?You can't buy it from City Group blatantly.

From the next city?
Unlikely, City Group already covers a wide range of businesses.

Even if there is a company in the next city that controls energy, the amount in hand is very small. Lao Cui's tentacles are only in KM City. If he wants to involve other sites, the bosses in other areas will definitely not agree.

So there is only one possibility at present, and that is to sell energy within the city group to Lao Cui.

Moreover, Old Cui's hands and eyes are in the sky in this city, the biggest possibility is that Old Cui's energy is obtained from this city.

Thinking of this, Chen Wei immediately took out his mobile phone and called Yang Yi.

During the phone call, Chen Wei couldn't wait to talk about the energy issue, and asked about the energy usage of the mechs in recent months.

About 10 minutes later, Yang Yi called to say.

"I asked Xiao Wu to check the energy usage for the past six months. I have never sold it outside. It has been used by the company itself, and all the company's internal energy usage records are normal...Because ordinary people do not need to use energy every day, all need energy All businesses are maintained by the group, so there is no energy sales and outflow.”

"Hey, that's not right, where does Old Cui get his energy from?" Chen Wei thought to himself.

"How is it? Did you find anything?" Yang Yi asked on the other end of the phone.

"Not yet, I'll take a look."

"Okay, then pay attention to Ann..." Before Yang Yi could finish speaking, Chen Wei hung up the phone.

Since Lao Cui did not obtain energy from formal channels, does he have other ways?
Yang Yi is an upper-class elite in this city, and only participates in some major decision-making, so Yang Yi definitely doesn't know about some gray areas, and she can't give herself any advice.

And I have only just traveled for three months, so I don't really belong to this city.

If you want to know the degree of familiarity with the city and the situation in the gray area, there is only one person who is suitable at present, and that is the fat man in front of you.

Chen Wei glanced at the fat man, and the corner of his mouth twitched coldly.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen, what are you doing?"

……

Chen Wei drove Fatty's S450 speeding down the street. Following the address given by Fatty, he turned right and left, heading towards a suburb of KM City.

This car is not as powerful as Yang Yi's 7 Series, but the ride experience is quite good, and it is inherently luxurious and very comfortable.

Chen Wei oiled the floor, and the speed of the instrument panel went up to 5000.

The fat man straightened his neck and leaned straight on the co-pilot's seat: "Brother Chen, Brother Chen, slow down... This is not my car, it's Mr. Cui's."

"Oh, President Cui's car."

Chen Wei slammed the direction and drove in an S-shape on the straight road, and then passed the traffic lights without slowing down, and rushed directly when he saw no cars on both sides.

The wind outside the car was loud, but inside the car was very quiet, only the beating of the fat man's heart could be heard.

According to what Fatty said, the energy that Lao Cui supplies to the mechs is purchased from the black market in KM City. Lao Cui lowered the price to the lowest, and still bought at the same price, and bought a lot at one time.

Fatty doesn't know how much energy is still on the black market. If he wants to know, he must go to the black market.

Moreover, people who can sell things like energy in the black market are naturally not weak in the KM market. Chen Wei also imagines such a person.

The buildings on both sides of the road gradually became lower. Through the street lamps on both sides, you can see that the shops around are closed. There are bright red lights and signs in front of the door and on the walls. There are countless service companies and such, some walls are covered with graffiti, the roads are dirty and full of rubbish.

There were still three or five people gathered on some roadsides. Their faces were covered with hats and their expressions could not be seen clearly. They lit a fire on the roadside and gathered there to chat.

The S450 passed by here, and everyone turned their heads to look at it. There are not many opportunities for such a luxury car to appear here, and it is still late at night, so it attracted everyone's attention.

"This place is so messy, no one cares about it?"

Chen Wei's words touched Fatty's heart. He came from this kind of place, so he is most familiar with this kind of place.

"Tch, there are people of all kinds in this kind of place. There are many gangs, big and small, and the security forces don't bother to take care of them. Occasionally, they will drive to patrol during the day, and they won't come here when there is no special situation."

"It's not the security forces that have the final say here, but some small local snakes. If something goes wrong, the security forces will not find the person involved. As long as they find the boss, all problems will be solved."

"How can the security forces speak so well in a place like this?"

"It's not all. It depends on what happened. If it's a big thing, the boss can't keep it. He's afraid that he will be implicated, so he will hand him over... If it's a small thing, the security forces will have a headache."

It seems that the fat man is very familiar with the situation here, and he speaks clearly and logically. It seems that he did not find the wrong person this time.

"It's right in front." The fat man pointed.

Chen Wei parked the car on the side of the road according to Fatty's instructions, then closed the door and got out of the car.

The fat man stood aside and looked at Chen Wei: "Brother Chen, if you park like this, the car we get out of will probably disappear later."

There is such a rule?How to stop?
The fat man opened the door and took out a square piece of cardboard from the passenger armrest box and pinned it to the wiper.

There was the abbreviation of Huacheng Entertainment on the piece of paper, followed by a series of numbers.

"Is this your life-saving talisman?" Chen Wei asked.

"This thing is very useful in this kind of place. When others see Hua Cheng's car, no one dares to move it." After speaking, he took Chen Wei forward with peace of mind.

Passing through a narrow and dripping alley, and then walking through a path without street lights, the fat man stopped in front of a four-story self-built house.

He coughed twice and knocked on the white rolling door.

About 40 seconds later, a small window opened on the shutter door, and a middle-aged woman with yellow hair held a flashlight and shot at Chen Wei and the fat man outside the door.

A huge bright light pierced the faces of the two of them, and they subconsciously reached out to block it.

"Sister Mei, it's me, stop taking pictures." The fat man said to Sister Mei.
