Chapter 43 [There are immortals!] 】
Chen Xiao felt that her brain was a little insufficient......
Involuntarily staggered, leaned against the wall, found a sofa placed at the door, sat down, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm down.
I...... I'm a Stranger. Am I really a stranger?
I really...... Not a normal person anymore?!
"So, you admit it." Zhu Rong smiled at Chen Xiao and comforted: "Little guy, you are already our kind, you can't admit it if you want to." As fate would have it, you should be with us people. Wouldn't it be nice to help each other and survive in this world together? ”
After a pause, she winked at Chen Xiao: "You just said that you don't like the service club, it's okay, we didn't let you do anything too complicated." It is to be an agent to help us manage the accounts and accept the entrustment, which is the work of a housekeeper. As for the execution of the commission, naturally there are a few of us with old arms and legs to fight for life and death, you just need to sit in the store and receive customers. Such a simple job, isn't it difficult? ”
Lao Tian finally spoke, he sighed, walked to Chen Xiao's side, and slowly sat opposite him, Lao Tian's voice was very gentle: "Chen Xiao, I know your current mood." Back then, like you, I found myself different from most people in this world. I lived in a time when you might guess that I was seen as a monster! But, here, that's how each and every one of us came here. Slowly, you will feel the benefits here, as long as you don't treat us as outsiders, we will treat you like family. ”
"I, I've got a bit of a mess in my head." Chen Xiao raised his head and glanced at Uncle Tian blankly: "My work ......"
"I promise, as long as you don't want to, no one will force you to go out on duty, and you're here to receive guests, every Thursday night. Accept the order, then you decide whether to accept the task or not, and we will do the rest. Zhu Rong is right, let's fight for life and death, you just need to be responsible for being a good housekeeper. ”
“…… Think about it. ”
After Chen Xiao finished speaking, he stood up silently and walked to the door, as if he hesitated, but finally pushed the door open and left.
"Stubborn boy." Zhu Rong pouted.
"Okay, that's how the newcomers come here." Lao Tian frowned and glanced at Zhu Rong: "Back then, when you were as old as him, you found that you were a flame girl, I'm afraid the panic in your heart was even more serious than his." ”
Zhu Rong's face changed, and he seemed to be a little annoyed, but then his anger turned into a trace of sadness, and he shook his head: "Lao Tian, you guy is such a bastard!" Angered me, set fire to your car repair shop! ”
After speaking, he snorted, strode out of the store, walked to the door, turned back to his husband and yelled: "Dead ghost!" What are you waiting for sitting here! Waiting for someone to invite you to dinner! ”
The co-worker sighed and quickly followed out with a cower.
Lao Tian stood in the coffee shop, picked up the teacup and drank the rest of the tea, took out a cigarette to light it, and after taking two puffs, he suddenly smiled bitterly and said to himself: "Alas, haven't I quit smoking...... Hehe, but it's really hard to quit the habit you have formed. ”
Dropping the cigarette butt, Lao Tian turned off the light, walked out of the coffee shop, and chased in the direction where Chen Xiao left.
・
Above the night sky, I don't know when a dark cloud has quietly hit, blocking the originally bright starry sky and moonlight.
Chen Xiao walked on this secluded street, her mind was a little confused, and she didn't know the direction, so she just walked down randomly.
After walking for a while, he suddenly turned around, and there was a strange feeling in his heart, as if he was being followed by someone, but when he looked back, the path behind him was empty, and there was no one behind.
"Is it a delusion?" Chen Xiao shook his head: "It seems that I am really a little abnormal." ”
Meow~~
A small shadow jumped lightly from the nearby wall and jumped in the middle of the path.
It was a small black cat looking at itself with its green cat eyes.
"It's not normal, isn't it?"
With a familiar voice that made Chen Xiao's heart beat, a black cat in front of him suddenly took two steps forward, and its body suddenly became larger, and it turned into a human form in the blink of an eye!
In the quiet night, her eyes were also as quiet as water, and under the night, she stood in front of Chen Xiao like this, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and her shining eyes made Chen Xiao lose her mind.
"Phoenix, Phoenix?"
The other party smiled and blinked: "You remember my name." ”
…… How could it be forgotten.
Chen Xiao flashed such a sentence in his heart, and thought for a while: "Just now, you have been following me?" ”
"To be exact, I've been around that street since you opened tonight." The phoenix head, this posture looks very cute, but he deliberately smiled leisurely: "Tonight is an important person to accept the commission." I didn't have anything to do anyway, so I came over and had a look. ”
"You know everything?" Chen Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly before he said a word: "Of course you know." I'm just this *** newcomer, you...... You must know more than I do. ”
The phoenix walked up gently and came to Chen Xiao's two steps away, and when she was close, her eyes were even more beautiful!
"You seem to have something on your mind." Phoenix actually took the initiative to stretch out his hand and gently grabbed Chen Xiao's hand: "Come, I'll take you to a place." ”
Chen Xiao only felt that there was a soft and delicate thing in his palm, and the touch of his skin made his heart tremble, and then he panicked. This girl who is extremely beautiful, her eyes are as gentle as water, so that Chen Xiao can't help but follow her forward......
But then, Chen Xiao let out an exclamation!
"Ah!!!h
・
The bodies of the two drifted in the air, watching the streets, street lamps, and houses under their feet gradually shrink. The body flew higher and higher in the sky, and Chen Xiao couldn't help but scream
"Shh Phoenix held Chen Xiao's hand with one hand, made a small finger with the other, and her face smiled: "Don't scream, otherwise people will see it, but it will be troublesome." ”
Chen Xiao's heart was beating wildly!
Fly...... Fly! Really flew!!
The phoenix took Chen Xiao's hand, and Chen Xiao felt that his body seemed to have become as light as a feather! Under the traction of the phoenix, the two flew farther and farther...... Looking down from the sky, the streets and buildings quickly flew backwards.
Facing the wind, the evening breeze blew on his face and body, which made Chen Xiao, who was originally depressed, feel a little more comfortable. Although he had just flown into the sky and was originally a little panicked, under the gentle eyes of the phoenix, Chen Xiao quickly calmed down.
He couldn't help but look at the phoenix carefully - the evening breeze gently lifted her hair, and the hair seemed to be brushing his cheeks, leaning against her, and there was a faint fragrance into his nose.
She pulled herself, like a fairy, dancing in the sky......
Be...... Is it flying......
Where to fly?
Hope...... Never stop.
At this moment, the young Chen Xiao didn't realize that just like all the young men of his age in the world, the fairy-like girl next to him, her figure has been forever engraved in his heart!
・
All the way to the west, after a while, Chen Xiao calculated in his heart that he had probably flown to the western suburbs of K City. The surroundings gradually opened up, and there were no more tall buildings, and finally, the phoenix took Chen Xiao and landed slowly......
At your feet, it seems to be a large manor, but the architecture is a little strange. Beside the gray buildings stood a tower, about thirty meters high, round, with two huge lampholders at the top, like a lighthouse by the sea.
Phoenix smiled back at Chen Xiao and lowered her voice: "Don't talk loudly." ”
The two finally landed on the top terrace of the tower, and Chen Xiao stepped on the hard stone slab under his feet, and his heart relaxed. It's just that the phoenix let go of his hand, and he couldn't help but feel a faint disappointment in his heart.
The phoenix sat casually on the ground, with a pair of small legs resting on the top edge of the tower, swaying gently with the wind.
"Sit, what are you doing standing?" The phoenix smiled lightly, with a hint of a smile in her eyes, Chen Xiao felt that her face was a little feverish, fortunately - the sky was so dark, she shouldn't be able to see it.
Sitting next to Phoenix, Chen Xiao asked a little wryly: "Here, what is the place?" ”
The phoenix covered her mouth and smiled, and her tone was a little naughty: "See for yourself." ”
See for yourself?
Chen Xiao looked down, and the gray building next to it was only about three stories high, but the area was large enough, and there was a large cāo field on the side.
Uh, is it a school?
It's just that......
There are also walls around it!
That encirclement of walls seems to be high and thick! And...... At regular intervals, there seems to be a slightly shorter tower......
What's even more outrageous is that above that circle of walls, there are still ...... hanging high
Smooth? It's barbed wire??!!
High walls, surveillance towers, barbed wire, large cāo fields, low buildings......
Could it be......
Chen Xiao's face was a little strange.
"That's right, this is a prison, a prison in K City." The phoenix grinned.
Chen Xiao was so frightened that she almost fell from it!
Jail??!!
He swallowed hard and looked at the phoenix in amazement.
"Alas......" Phoenix sighed and said softly: "I don't like so many tall buildings in the city, it's too depressing, but unfortunately, there are no mountains in the surrounding area. This is the only place where the area is very empty, and the tower is so high that you can see far away. Don't you think your vision is very broad? ”
Chen Xiao wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
Because it is high and has a good view, I ran to the top of the watchtower of the prison in the middle of the night to see the scenery......
Really...... There's a good girl in xìng!
"This, it's right to have a wide field of vision, it's just ......" Chen Xiao couldn't laugh.
"Then there's no 'but'." Phoenix smiled lightly, but stared at Chen Xiao's eyes: "People live in this world, why do they think about so many questions?" Isn't it easier than anything else? ”
After a pause, there seemed to be a hint of deep meaning in her eyes: "For example, you, Chen Xiao, you are in a very bad mood tonight, just because you always think a lot about things when you encounter them." If you think too much, you will get tired easily. ”
Maybe the truth of this is very simple, but such a sentence, which came out of the mouth of a girl like Phoenix, immediately made Chen Xiao listen to it.
He fell into deep thought......
・
A hundred meters away, in a prison cell, a fat man looked depressed, his hands on the fence on the windowsill, looking out boredly.
Suddenly, his chubby face suddenly twisted and stared at the top of the tower in the distance......
"Wow!! Someone!! Someone's coming!! ”
The fat man ran to the cell door and slammed it hard.
After a moment, an impatient voice came from outside: "What are you doing!" ”
"jǐng official! There are gods outside!! There are gods on the tower!! ”
The jǐng outside the "......" was furious: "Sick!" Don't sleep in the middle of the night! No matter how honest you are, be careful that I clean you up! ”
With that, the footsteps faded away.
"What I said is true, there are immortals!!" The fat man cried and continued to shout, "Hey!! You can't do that to me! Prisoners also have human rights!! ”
