The Black Card - Chapter 1400

[Chapter 1398 Discovering the failure of the windbreaker]
It was just dawn.
The ferryman got up early.
He walked to the window as a habit, lifted the corner of the curtain and looked down. The person monitoring the place was still there, but he seemed a little out of sorts. He was smoking heavily, leaning on a telephone pole, and kept snoring. Yawning.
He brushed his teeth very seriously, not missing every gap in his teeth. The ferryman was more serious than usual, as if he was brushing his teeth for the last time when he was about to die.
Then he took another shower, again with great care and detail. He wished he could dismantle every tiny part of his body and wash it thoroughly to be satisfied.
After putting on a new set of clothes, the ferryman carefully arranged his appearance in the mirror until there were no wrinkles in his clothes. Then he put on the windbreaker that could affect other people’s brain waves.
In early April, the temperature in this small county located in the northernmost part of China was still quite low, so it wouldn’t be too strange to go out wearing a windbreaker.
However, when he put on the windbreaker, the ferryman’s face clearly showed some disgust, as if he hated this windbreaker extremely, but he had to put it on.
After finishing his clothes, the ferryman smiled at the mirror and walked towards the door.
When passing the box, the ferryman patted the box gently, his eyes full of hope that the box brought to him.
After going out and going downstairs, the ferryman walked towards the center of the county easily.
When he passed the telephone pole, he saw the monitor with a tired face and followed him. He frowned slightly, which seemed a little abnormal.
In fact, these people were not here to monitor him, because in their eyes, the ferryman looked like a local due to the way the ferryman’s windbreaker affected the brain waves of these people.
He had been back for a few days, but he had never been followed before. Usually when he went downstairs, those people would look at him carefully and then let him go.
After all, in those people’s information, the ferryman was a blond and blue-eyed European, but what appeared in front of them was an out-and-out local.
However, the ferryman didn’t pay too much attention. After all, this windbreaker is also one of the symbols. These people may have received new notices and will not let go of everyone wearing a black windbreaker here.
At other times, the ferryman would probably adjust the settings on the windbreaker to have a more profound impact on the other person’s brain waves, and even make the person who sees him unable to tell that he is wearing a windbreaker.
But today, the ferryman felt very relaxed, because he would soon get rid of all this and appear in front of everyone with a new look.
At that time, he will no longer be a ferryman, and no one will follow him anymore.
This is also your last follow-up, just follow it – the ferryman thought silently in his heart and strode towards the gate of the community.
After leaving the community, the ferryman noticed that there were two people standing on the roadside. They were smoking cigarettes and holding a plastic bag in their hands. In the bag were big steaming meat buns.
Seeing the ferryman leaving the community, the two people threw away the buns in their hands, looked at each other, and followed him, and soon joined the man from the previous community.
The ferryman frowned slightly. The two men obviously recognized him. He couldn’t help but wonder, how did they determine the target?
An old car on the side of the road started up, its exhaust pipe puffed out white smoke, and soon it was slowly moving along the road.
The speed is extremely slow, like a person walking, hanging behind the ferryman.
The ferryman frowned tightly. He felt that it was necessary to adjust. Otherwise, if this continues, more and more people will follow him.
The ferryman doesn’t take these people seriously at present. He is completely confident that he can kill them all.
But if there are more and more people, the ferryman is not a master with super powers like Shi Lei. He is absolutely invincible.
There is a breakfast shop next to the road, and the big steaming steamer looks so tempting in this quiet morning.
The ferryman estimated that the buns in the hands of the two people just now were bought from here. Looking at this steaming scene, he couldn’t help but feel a little hungry.
After walking into the breakfast shop, the ferryman ordered a bowl of porridge and four steamed buns, and found a corner to sit down that was not visible from outside the shop.
As he expected, those people did not follow him to the breakfast shop. While drinking porridge and eating big buns that had just come out of the pot, he opened the collar of his windbreaker, groped under the collar, and quickly set it. complete.
Normally, now that he walks out, those people can’t even see the windbreaker he is wearing. In their sight, the ferrymen they see may be wearing various styles of clothes. Everyone sees something different. It may not be the same, but the only thing that is impossible to see is the windbreaker.
This time, you shouldn’t be able to keep up, right?
The ferryman finished the steamed buns and the porridge in an orderly manner. He stood up and said calmly: “Boss, pay the bill.”
The boss looked back at him, obviously stunned, and then walked over with a smile and stretched out his hand. He raised his hand and said: “Ten yuan.”
The ferryman paid, but he always felt that the boss’s eyes were a little strange, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
However, the ferryman obviously didn’t intend to say anything to a breakfast vendor. He put away his discomfort, waved his hand and said, “No need to change.” What he gave to the boss was a twenty-yuan bill.
The boss scratched his head and said: “Thank you!” Seeing that the ferryman was about to walk out of the door, he added: “You speak Chinese well enough!” The
ferryman hesitated slightly, but still walked out. He didn’t understand that earlier The shop owner said this.
In the eyes of the boss, what he should see is a local image with an unfamiliar face. Why can he speak Chinese well enough?
Before he could figure it out, he saw that the people who had followed him before saw him coming out and followed him again.
The ferryman couldn’t understand more and more, why did he still follow?
He looked around himself. There should be nothing wrong with him. How did these people recognize him?
In any case, the ferryman was already full of vigilance. He never moved forward on foot again. Instead, he stood by the roadside, stretched out his hand, and hailed a taxi.
When he got in the car, the driver was stunned when he saw him.
The driver stammered: “I can’t speak foreign languages, can you speak Chinese?”
The ferryman’s heart skipped a beat. He finally realized what had happened. The windbreaker had failed…
Otherwise, there was no way to explain this. , why did the taxi driver recognize him as a European?
If the windbreaker failed, it would also explain what the breakfast shop owner said just now. He also saw that the ferryman was a foreigner, so he said that he spoke Chinese well enough.
Of course, this completely explained why those people followed him unswervingly, because what they saw now was the true face of the ferryman.
But why does a windbreaker fail?
As the former second-in-command of the Dark Night Eye, the ferryman certainly knew that his windbreaker would not always be effective.
There are two situations in which a windbreaker will fail.
One possibility is, of course, that the windbreaker itself is broken, or that the nanoscale brainwave transmitter hidden in the windbreaker is broken, and the windbreaker naturally becomes an ordinary windbreaker.
There is another way, that is, this small county town is covered with various radio wave interference devices, which successfully interfere with the brain waves emitted by the windbreaker, making it ineffective.
No matter which one, the ferryman will appear in front of others with his true appearance.
