Volume 1 The New Guest in the City Chapter 31 A Hidden Nightmare Emerges
The thriving city suddenly attracts the attention of the crow like a dying old man. The black crows watched over the city on the outskirts as if they were a group of messengers, sensing that disaster was about to happen to the city.
This is the fourth day after Weidun City discovered the "guinea pig" from the dead country, because she desperately hopes that everyone can believe her, so there are frequent appearances to protect the city, and people already know her.
She thought she would gain trust, gain support, and protect the city, but she was wrong.
She's really too simple.
As a result of her presence, the city's crime rate has increased inexplicably, and instead of deterring those people, she has caused them to start testing her.
"Mayor, since the girl came, the crime rate in the city has started to increase, which is not at all what was expected. ”
A man suddenly knocked on the door and entered the office of the mayor of Guardian City, and began to express his concern eagerly. Faced with his anxiety, the mayor of Weidun City spoke unhurriedly and digressed.
"Do you remember what she said when she came here that day? ”
"Mayor?"
"She said that the city was facing a disaster and that she was here to help us. The mayor of Weidun City took a sip of tea very calmly, as if he was leisurely surrounded by fire, "At that time, we didn't want to believe her. The Dead Country has always been our great enemy, the biggest obstacle for us black-haired people to return to this world, and if they want to attack us, we will face a great crisis. ”
The leisurely clouds suddenly stopped moving, and stood on the edge of the sky and watched quietly. The black bird swept across the sky, and the black dot flashed in front of the eyes of those looking up, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The bird, like the eyes of the clouds, was scanning people's souls.
Then, with a lamentation, the cloud slowly departed.
"Now, the dead country is looking for an excuse to attack the city, and it will really do us some good to have a girl like this to protect the city. "The mayor is still calm, but he looks a little desperate.
"She has no deterrent at all, and those criminals are not afraid of her at all. Besides, if she hadn't come to this city, the dead country wouldn't have suddenly come over to make trouble. The man was even more anxious.
However, these words made the mayor, who had already figured out the whole thing, suddenly happy and sad, and shook his head with a helpless smile.
"Haven't you noticed that day, the man's so-called 'game' was actually completely biased our thinking, in fact, we are all grasshoppers on a rope. ”
"How...... Wait a minute...... It seems like...... Yes......" the man tried to think differently, looking somewhat understanding, "but...... Really protect her...... No...... It's just how it looks...... I get it......"
"So that's the real game. ”
Survival is never an easy thing, and a person who has not experienced suffering is no different from a dead person. Human beings are social creatures, and everyone should contribute to survival, rather than blindly standing on the shoulders of others to evade responsibility.
After all, people are never separated, they are supposed to be one. In the face of this divisive "game", how to win?
They have no other choice.
The mayor of Weidun City took out a handwritten agreement, and for this "game", the mayor of Weidun City decided to form a group to release news and gather people's hearts. And this group, which was later secretly recorded in the archives, was called the "Eleven of Guardian City".
"We are all family members, but we must know that this world is also a real world, and we must unite here, not just do everything so that we can escape back to this world for a while. ”
These were the last words of the mayor of Guardian City after issuing this agreement......
The silent corridor reverberated with a permeating scent, and the sunlight shone through the leaves, leaving a glimmer of light in the darkness, the only light in the darkness.
Sunlight filtered through the window, trying to break into the dark office, but the dark green curtains firmly blocked it. The school office was pitch black, with only a strip of light left on the desk by the window.
The bands of light were weak in the darkness, like thick clouds split by a large knife, and the sunlight struggled to shine through the gaps to the ground.
This is the only light left in the whole darkness,
A man sits at his desk with his back to the light, holding a photograph in his hand, deliberately letting the light strip shine on the photo. At this moment, this office is a reflection of the man's heart, and there is still a glimmer of hope for life in the dead silence, and that hope shines on "her".
The knock on the door pulled the man back, and he sat up straight, like a student who saw the teacher coming, playing with his phone, and skillfully put the picture into the desk drawer.
After answering the knocker, a man walked into the office, gently closed the door and said, "Is this a repeat of the same trick?"
"What's wrong?"
"As a regulator, I want you to understand the consequences of what you're doing at this point. ”
"I understand it very well. ”
The man brought a stool and sat down without hesitation, propping up his desk to face the overseer.
"What use do those maggots have? The man asked.
"It's very simple, just be cannon fodder. Isn't it good to be such cheap cannon fodder? Besides, even the boss can't even look at this kind of person. ”
"But you have to know that those people don't survive half a day in front of the 'scavenging birds'. ”
"What do you mean?"
"She has wiped out the last group of escorts, and she is on her way to carry out her mission. The man took a deep breath, "This is a completely unexpected situation, this is not within the scope of the 'game'. If we go on like this, we may lose. ”
"Don't think so, we still have a plan ...... B"
The Overseer's voice suddenly choked, and the man looked up curiously, seeing a flash of surprise on his face, followed by a wave of worry.
"If you continue, you really have to kill him, right?" the Overseer continued.
"Of course, that's the key to Plan B. The man looked into the regulator's eyes and smiled coldly, "I understand your feelings, you don't want his daughter to be alone for the rest of her life." But you have to understand that your daughter is still here. ”
The Overseer nodded silently until the man quietly left, and finally did not speak again.
Ever since Bai Nanyu took over the black memory card, she always felt that there was something unresolved, as if a fragile ceramic was hanging in the air in her heart, so that she always had to pay attention to it from time to time. Because I'm worried that the "ceramic" will fall down and smash it, or maybe it's better to just put it down.
With this in mind, she hesitated for a long time, and after discussing it with Nightmare, she decided to give the card to the Bad Boys Alliance.
So, she found the secret location of the Bad Boys League along the way.
It was an old town, long without water and electricity, and it was so desolate that it looked like it had gone through the end of the world. Moss hugs old benches, grass tries to climb steep slopes, tiny mosquitoes flutter in front of you, and dried-up puddles still bear the footprints of naughty children in the corners of the walls.
It is difficult to explain the meaning of this ruined old city, and those things just burst into people's minds, and before people have time to react, they have long been left speechless.
Looking at this complex of mixed feelings, it is obvious to the intuition that it is not just desolate.
Walking into a bleak building is like plunging from the land into a sea full of memories. At that moment, Bai Nanyu's heart swelled with countless memories, followed by countless fantasies, and he couldn't speak at all for a while.
Finally, she walked to the first floor, found the entrance to the basement, and walked in the dark for two minutes before she seemed to see the first light. Ahead, there was a door, and a faint light came out of the crack in the door, forming a band of light. Without thinking much about it, Bai Nanyu opened the door lock very calmly and pushed the door open, but the moment he opened the door, there was a sentence that violently broke through the blockade in his heart until his mouth.
The words "I'm back" rang in her heart and in her head at that moment, but in the end, they couldn't get out of her mouth.
After she opened the door, everyone stopped their business and looked at her in unison.
Suddenly, the surrounding atmosphere was like Bai Nanyu was in a stalemate with several people, and for more than ten seconds, no one made a sound. They were just looking at each other, looking for each other in their memories.
"Look, Xiao Jing, this is the library photo of the ancient ruins that has just been discovered...... Film......"
The silence of the stalemate was broken by a boy's excited shout, and the voice faded as he noticed the familiar figure in front of the door. And Xiao Jing, who couldn't suppress her excitement, looked at Bai Nanyu's face and whispered tentatively: "Xiaoyu?"
"It's me, I'm going back...... I...... I'm looking for you for something. ”
"Bai Nanyu!"
Xiao Jing suddenly screamed and rushed towards Bai Nanyu, as if a cheetah had scurried by, pounced on the antelope, and hugged Bai Nanyu tightly. At that moment, everyone was stunned again, because they rarely saw Xiao Jing so excited.
"Enough...... That's enough...... Let go of me......" Bai Nanyu was hugged and breathless.
"You're finally back, you're finally back!" Xiao Jing thought in a broken voice, "Do you know how long we've been waiting for you, we've really been waiting for you!
"Good...... Alright...... Don't you do that...... I'm a little scared ......."
Bai Nanyu said that, Xiao Jing was still excited, held Bai Nanyu's face in front of her, and laughed and teased:
"Are you scared? I'll take a look at the cry. ”
"Eh, you......"
Bai Nanyu didn't say a word, clenching his fists was a set of consecutive fights, which was a self-created trick dedicated to dealing with Xiao Jing, and it was not lethal in itself, not to mention that Bai Nanyu was usually relatively weak. However, such a trick made Xiao Jing immediately "seriously injured", holding her stomach and pretending to be hit by a hit.
"Have you had enough? After Bai Nanyu finished speaking, he began to rummage through his pockets.
"Hee-hee-hee...... It's okay, everyone is very happy, right......" Before she finished speaking, Xiao Jing noticed the things in Bai Nanyu's hand, and her emotions immediately calmed down, "This ...... It's ......"
Xiao Jing slowly stretched out her hand and took the card, the yellow metal sheet shining golden in the light. Flipping it over, the symbol on the front of the card immediately caught her attention, she knew it because the Bad Boys League had traded with some intelligence trafficker.
While Bai Nanyu was still investigating the memory card in the Bad Boys League, the mayor once again flipped through the files of Weidun City to see if he could see anything that had been missed before.
The heat of the coffee, quietly wafting from the white porcelain cup, mixed with the aroma, gradually enveloped the mayor holding the cup. Suddenly, the cup shuddered slightly, and the coffee in the cup made a ripple. The mayor slowly lowered the cup, his eyes wide as he looked at what he had swept before.
Regulators.
The people who are born within the city and who voluntarily help the dead country as an internal should exist are mainly used to monitor everything that happens in the city, report them, and make certain countermeasures to it.
This was recorded by the Bad Boys League, and the regulator at the time was a newspaper reporter from Weidun City, so the mayor of Black Lake City didn't particularly care when he saw it. However, when he saw it again, he became vigilant. This can be regarded as an oversight, the mayor suddenly became afraid.
Just as he was concentrating on his thoughts, he was awakened by a knock on the door, only to find that someone had been standing at the door for a long time.
"Xiao Li, what's the matter?"
"Mayor, I brought you the information you wanted. ”
Councillor Lee said as he brought over a stack of materials and put them away.
"Oh, thank you, for bothering you every day. ”
"What a word. Councillor Lee laughed, "This is what should be done." Anyway, Mayor, what are you looking at? ”
Councillor Lee was a little curious, but the mayor did not block it and took the initiative to move the file to him. Seeing the words "supervisor" on the file, Councilor Li frowned slightly, looking very disgusted. This expression caught the mayor's attention, so he tried to ask, but before he could open his mouth, he was told the reason.
In Councillor Lee's eyes, this "regulator" is a selfish person who is willing to sacrifice the entire city for their own benefit.
"This kind of person can't be considered a human being at all, if you think about it, people in a city have hope of living, but he can leave others behind in order to survive for himself. What's more, it's still in a city with people like you. Councillor Lee fell silent as he spoke, looking a little sad.
"Don't worry, I won't die so easily, I still have your hope, don't I?"
Councillor Lee nodded, smiling hard, not revealing his ugly side to the mayor. In fact, there is a reason why the two of them can get so close because it seems to be providential.
They are both fathers, the difference is that one is the father who has lost his beloved, and the other is the father whose beloved is waiting in another world.
Looking at the Bad Boys League division again, the contents of the memory card have been partially deciphered.
"Shen Mengyun gave it to you?"
"Yes. Bai Nanyu replied thoughtfully, "When I found out, it was in her hands, and it seemed that she had been asked to hand it over to the guards. ”
Xiao Jing looked at the cracked content and shook her head again and again.
"Oh my god, I don't think you want to see anything on it. ”
"What's wrong?"
"Boss Wu remembers?" Xiao Jing sneered, "He was also a member of the Guardian of the Dead Country. ”
"What?"
"Just kidding. ”
"Do you want to die?" Bai Nanyu said and raised his fist.
Xiao Jing covered her head, stuck out her tongue mischievously, and then pointed the computer screen at Bai Nanyu. On the confidential file with white characters on a black background, a photo of a person who made her shudder hung there, and among those complicated words, Bai Nanyu quickly found the point.
A member of the Guardian of the Dead Country, the regulator of the "Destruction Game" in the twelve districts of Guardian City, Black Lake City, and Bibo City.
And his position made Bai Nanyu breathless, I am afraid that tonight will be another sleepless night, after all, that person is the one who stands in the position that can threaten her the most. It's like playing chess and thinking about how to defeat the front, only to find out that it has been defeated.
That person's name is Li Harmonic.
