What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Xiang Kun's plan for today is to take everyone to the Wushu Mountain Scenic Area. Among them, except for Zhang Qian who has been touring before, none of them has been to Wushu Mountain, so since they have all arrived in Tongshi Town, they should go anyway, after all, the fame is there, and it is close at hand, so It's only an hour's drive away, and it's all here.

In fact, the scenic spot was reopened yesterday, and the section where the accident happened the day before yesterday is still temporarily blocked, because there are "potential safety hazards", and some protective measures will be taken later.

When it was almost nine o'clock, Xiang Kun received a call from Liu Caifu, saying that he had mentioned to "Brother Chu" yesterday that they were going to Wushu Mountain Scenic Area to play today, so "Brother Chu" arranged for them two MPVs with drivers to be in charge of their day. day trip.

In fact, Liu Caifu's original plan was to lend You Meng his car so that they could drive three cars there. Otherwise, eleven people and two cars will not be able to squeeze.

Xiang Kun recalled the "Brother Chu" he met the night before, and he had a good impression in his heart. He probably could guess what the other party was thinking, so he agreed to take the car they provided. If it is divided into two cars and a driver, it can really save them a lot of worry.

But at half past nine, when he saw the two drivers driving two GL8s in the hotel parking lot, Xiang Kun was a little surprised.

The two drivers looked very ordinary from the outside. They were over 1.7 meters tall, with dark skin, simple and honest appearance, and they both spoke with a local accent of Tongshi Town. There seemed to be nothing unusual.

But Xiang Kun doesn't judge people just by their appearance. With the infrared thermal imaging visual mode, the sixth sense, other richer and more detailed sensory information, and the establishment and analysis of a comprehensive cognitive model, the two drivers can be seen at a glance. different.

The physical fitness and muscle strength of these two people are obviously much stronger than ordinary people. Of course, it has not exceeded the limit of ordinary people.

It can be seen that there are many traces of heavy load and high-intensity training, as well as many old injuries on the body, ranging from muscles, soft tissues to bones, and even some traumas obviously caused by controlled weapons.

According to the "database" and comprehensive analysis that Xiang Kun accumulated from a large number of observations, these two are not ordinary people!

Where did Chu Xiuwen find the two of them to be drivers?

"Hello, Mr. Xiang, I'm Ji Hang, Ji of Discipline, Hang Hang of Aerospace, you can call me Lao Ji, this is my colleague Xu Kai, today we will provide travel services for you and your friends." When they met, one of the drivers extended his right hand to Xiang Kun with a sincere smile on his face.

Although he had some doubts about the identities of the two of them, on the surface Xiang Kun naturally did not show any strangeness, and shook hands with Ji Hang enthusiastically: "I will trouble you today.

"

He could feel that there were many calluses on Ji Hang's palm, and the joints of his fingers were also very thick. Even if ordinary people notice these calluses, they will probably only think that this person often does heavy work. But Xiang Kun could guess which type of equipment he usually used to exercise, as well as the exercise movements, the equipment he might use, and so on.

Of the two drivers, Ji Hang was the older, with more injuries and training marks on his body, and he was the one who communicated with Xiang Kun and the others. The other driver, Xu Kai, was introverted and honest, and he didn't like to talk. , Even if you ask him a question, he only gives a short answer. Of course, the attitude is very good.

Xiang Kun could feel Ji Hang's secret sizing and observation of him, but this was normal. According to his cognitive model of the two drivers, their observation should be instinctive.

After You Meng also brought Liang Yulong to the hotel to meet up, Xiang Kun assigned the eleven of them to two GL8s and set off for the Wushu Mountain Scenic Area.

When arranging the location, Ji Hang was very active and enthusiastic in helping Xiang Kun to arrange it. What he said was very pleasing to the ear, and the reasons for arranging the location sounded very reasonable.

When Xiang Kun finally got into the car, there were only two seats left, one was the third row of Xu Kai's car, and the other was the co-pilot of Ji Hang's car, so he was naturally the co-pilot.

It seems that there is nothing strange about this, but Xiang Kun came to a judgment through various observed clues and the analysis of Ji Hang's cognitive model: this was deliberately arranged by Ji Hang.

Sure enough, on the way, Ji Hang began to chat with him seemingly unintentionally.

"Mr. Xiang, is this your first visit to Wushu Mountain?"

"I've been there several times, but the last time was seven or eight years ago. Most of my friends have never been there." Xiang Kun replied without hiding anything.

After chatting for a while, Ji Hang casually mentioned work and previous experiences, and guided Xiang Kun to tell about his situation.

Ji Hang's voice with a slight local accent of Tongshi Town, his neither slow nor slow, and neither high nor low tone, sounds very sincere, and it is easy to generate a sense of trust, making people feel that what he said Very convincing. Moreover, he is very skillful in speaking, leading the topic without any trace, and subtly arouses other people's interest in talking, so that others can continue to discuss the topic by themselves.

If Xiang Kun felt that Xiang Kun's instinctive behavior was Ji Hang's observation when we first met, then when he was arranging the seat, those "inadvertent" actions, deliberately arranging him to sit in the co-pilot, made him aware of it. When it comes to Ji Hang and Xu Kai, the two drivers who are not young, the reason why they came to help them drive may be for him.

However, Xiang Kun didn't feel nervous or uneasy, nor did he deliberately avoid Ji Hang's temptation and observation. Because he can also feel that Ji Hang's physical condition is very relaxed, and he has no sense of guard against him. Judging from the feedback data of his body and physiology, as well as the speculation of the cognitive model, Ji Hang has no malice towards him. It's just a simple test and observation.

Contacting that Ji Hang was sent by Chu Xiuwen, Xiang Kun probably had a guess about his purpose.

It is estimated that Chu Xiuwen was influenced by Liu Feibao and had some associations with his identity and origin, and these two drivers were sent by him to inquire about him.

I guess I want to see what kind of attitude I should take to face myself when we cooperate in some businesses and projects in Tongshi Town in the future.

If you think about it from this angle, Ji Hang's attitude and state are easy to understand.

Moreover, Xiang Kun was actually quite curious about Ji Hang's background. Judging from the training marks on his body and the injuries he suffered, the previous experience of this "master driver" was not simple.

Therefore, Xiang Kun responded to Ji Hang's various temptations and guided topics one by one, and responded very naturally, and then in turn inquired about Ji Hang's various information and experiences.

Anyway, except for the past six months, Xiang Kun's life experience was quite normal and ordinary, and what he said was all the genuine truth.

However, judging from his judgment through Ji Hang's cognitive model, when Ji Hang talked about some of his own information, it was mixed, some were true and some were false.

Although Ji Hang's tone of voice, speed of speech, facial expressions, and other external expressions all seem very natural, regardless of whether he is telling the truth or not, they seem to be the same. It is obvious that his psychological quality is quite strong, and all kinds of rhetoric have been arranged in advance. , remember very firmly.

But when Xiang Kun observes a person now, he has too many sources of information and too much data that can be used for analysis and judgment. The longer the contact time and the more he talks, the harder it is to lie in front of him.

What is certain is that Ji Hang previously spent a long time in official military-related units. However, he has embellished or lied about the professional direction he is engaged in, the place of work training, and the number of years.

After arriving at the parking lot of the scenic spot, Xiang Kun invited Ji Hang to go up the mountain to play together, but Ji Hang declined on the grounds that he wanted to stay in the car to recharge his batteries for better service.

After Xiang Kun and the others bought tickets to enter the scenic spot, Xu Kai, the driver of another mpv, came over and asked in a low voice, "Brother, why don't you go in with them? Didn't we make preparations before, to be a tour guide for them or something?" , more than enough."

"Everything should be carried out according to the normal driver's practice, don't worry about it." Ji Hang said indifferently, and now most of the honesty and honesty on his face dissipated, and there was a trace of sharpness in his eyes.

Xu Kai asked strangely: "Brother, what did you see?"

"No, it's normal. The study and work conditions he said are consistent with the information provided by Mr. Liu. According to my observation, it should be true. His hands have not practiced a large number of offensive weapons like us. He is not familiar with military related I probably don’t know anything about the unit, it doesn’t look like they have received professional training.” Ji Hang said.

Xu Kai nodded: "It seems that Mr. Liu's news channel is wrong. The passengers in my car, listening to their conversation, feel that they are all very ordinary young people, and they are all discussing the glory of the king. And food, I heard from them that the bald man named Xiang Kun is a very good chef, he is also very good at playing games, and his main business is software development..."

"Well, just drive hard, don't talk too much." Ji Hang said.

"Don't worry bro, I won't fart at all."

Ji Hang cast his eyes on the mountains in the scenic area, and seemed to narrow his eyes slightly because of the glare of the sun.

The reason why he brought Xu Kai over to drive Xiang Kun and his friends today was because of his experience at Chu Xiuwen's house last night.

Ji Hang has been doing professional security work for rich people with a few brothers in the early years. Last year, he wanted to start a business and needed funds. Many old clients he had served before invested in him, and Chu Xiuwen was one of them.

Chu Xiuwen not only invested a lot of money himself, but also introduced a lot of business to their new company and helped him expand his contacts. The company can develop smoothly. Chu Xiuwen provided a lot of help, even Ji Hang's benefactor Too much.

So seeing that the Chinese New Year was almost here, he and Xu Kai came over with a gift to wish Chu Xiuwen an early New Year. By the way, he also reported to the shareholders about the company's business situation. He also asked Chu Xiuwen for some ideas—don't look at Chu Xiuwen. Xiuwen seems to be just a rich man from a small town in the mountains. In fact, he has a lot of contacts in the whole Haixi Province, especially those businessmen and politicians who have gone out of Jianzhou City.

When having dinner, Chu Xiuwen found a fat boss wearing gold-rimmed glasses. After learning about his experience, the fat boss carefully asked him whether the government would secretly train some people with strong personal abilities. People, in private activities and affairs in private.

Ji Hang has heard this kind of saying quite often, but most of them are from street stall literature or the Internet. But after explaining a few sentences, he found that the fat boss named Liu Feibao didn't seem to be asking casually out of pure curiosity. It is not the cognition obtained from such entertainment works, but has a definite realistic goal.

His first reaction was that "Mr. Liu" met a liar.

"Mr. Liu, no matter how powerful a single person is, his ability is limited. Just like a screw, in military equipment, it is a part of a big killer, and in a game console, it is a part of an entertainment tool. It plays a different role. However, if they are singled out, the role and influence are very small, especially in modern society. Whether it is our country or other countries, there are indeed some departments that ordinary people do not know, but they are a whole operating system. Rather than one or two elites. It is the arrows that cause damage, but arrows alone are useless." Ji Hang explained according to his understanding.

"That is to say, if they are not in the official organization, their ability will not be great?" Mr. Liu asked.

"They are excellent screws and refined arrows. After leaving the original organization and entering a new organization, they can also play a great role. Like some of my comrades-in-arms, after changing jobs, they did not find a suitable job. Professional skills Unable to make full use of it, we can only re-familiarize and learn new jobs; some comrades have found suitable jobs, and even have a seven-figure income every year..."

"I understand. What you mean is that such a person is definitely not alone, and there must be an organization behind him. If that person has an official background, then he belongs to an official organization." Mr. Liu nodded thoughtfully.

"I mean, people like that won't have anything to do with us." Ji Hang was a little helpless, he almost said that if the government wants to touch you or us, there is no need for any secret organization or privately cultivated strongman.

"Mr. Liu, have you been threatened? If it is not convenient for you to call the police in this situation, you can actually ask our company to deal with it. We will conduct investigations and collect evidence within the legal framework and on the premise of the customer's interests... "Ji Hang directly expressed his doubts.

"No, I'm just asking out of curiosity, and I haven't been threatened." Mr. Liu repeatedly denied it.

No matter how Ji Hang introduced the situation and carried out "science popularization", Mr. Liu refused to say who the person who made him have such a perception.

What surprised him even more was Chu Xiuwen's attitude.

It seems that Mr. Liu's "consultation" was ordered by Chu Xiuwen, and he was also very curious about this question.

From Ji Hang's point of view, businessmen like Chu Xiuwen, who have a wide range of contacts, generally don't have such unrealistic ideas.

So under his repeated guidance, Chu Xiuwen and Mr. Liu told the truth. He is a boss who is more powerful than the two of them and has a very strong personality. He has an unusual sense of awe for someone he meets on the road. Then Mr. Liu conducted investigation and verification through his channels, and found that the person may have an official background and his background is unfathomable, but the information and resume that can be found are very normal, and nothing can be seen.

This made Ji Hang curious, so he said that he could help them with the investigation, and it was free. But he was repeatedly rejected by Mr. Liu with a panicked expression, as if he was afraid that his investigation would anger the other party and bring about some terrible consequences.

Ji Hang repeatedly emphasized his professionalism and promised that no one would find out, and with Chu Xiuwen echoing him, Mr. Liu finally nodded.

Then there was the matter that he and Xu Kai came to drive Xiang Kun today.

Along the way, he really didn't see any problems, and he didn't feel that the bald man sitting in the co-pilot had received similar professional training as him, and he didn't feel that he was doing things for the government. As for the other people in the car, Xiang Kun's ten friends, except for the tall girl surnamed Xia, didn't see anything unusual. Even if it was the girl surnamed Xia, he didn't think it was Mr. Liu. the kind of person described.

Normally speaking, he doesn't need more observations, he can already come to the conclusion: the abnormal reaction of the boss with Mr. Liu is caused by other reasons, not Xiang Kun; This kind of "strongman" news channel is not reliable.

But Ji Hang had an inexplicable intuition, which made him feel an inexplicable fear of Xiang Kun.

This kind of fear made him a little uncertain, even doubting whether it existed.

After all, from various objective observations, Xiang Kun shouldn't be able to pose a threat to him.

But he also believed in his intuition, because this intuition had saved his life more than once.

So Ji Hang called back to the company, found his own channels, and tried to investigate Xiang Kun to see if there was any information that Liu Feibao couldn't find. If there is, he doesn't need to find out the specific information and resume, he just needs to know whether it exists, and then he can understand whether there is a problem with Xiang Kun.

At noon, after receiving a call from Xiang Kun and knowing that they were going down the mountain to eat, Ji Hang suddenly saw a familiar figure among the crowd leaving the scenic spot.
