Chapter 14: The Naughty Ghost (14)
Ye Shanlan followed Xu Bing step by step, the light of hope was extinguished little by little, she had walked this road once before, it seemed that Xu Bing was planning to take herself to see her father Xu Fanghuai, that guy was not as easy to fool as Xu Bing, and when the time came, I am afraid that I will stay in this mission world forever, as a real zombie.
There will always be a turning point, Ye Shanlan comforted herself in her heart, trying to calm her brain. This sentence is not pure self-hypnosis, the seventh space has always been very ingenious in the concept of the task, and now that she is not dead, it proves that there is still a chance to turn the tables, it depends on whether she can catch it.
Ye Shanlan tried to pretend to be stiff in order to slow down the speed, and at the same time, his eyes were blurred, his brain was flying, and his whole body was highly nervous, searching for everything around him, there was only one life-saving straw, and if he missed it, it would be completely over. Finally, when he walked to the last block, Ye Shanlan saw a possible turning point.
In a small café on the corner of the street, a strange man was made by the window, tall and slender, with large hands and thick knuckles, but there was no flesh, only a layer of skin wrapped on the outside, like a gray withered skeleton. He was wearing a black robe, with a black suitcase at his feet, and a badge pinned to his chest, on which was written a line of quaint text, which Ye Shanlan didn't recognize, but it looked primitive, similar to seal scripts, golden scripts and the like. The most striking thing is that the man wears a mask on his face, the base is white, a black symbol is drawn on it, the mouth is a long horizontal line, and the horizontal line is an irregular erect oval, which is also on his badge and suitcase.
Seeing this man, Ye Shanlan pulled her legs and ran back, quickly and agilely, and the movement she made was so small that Xu Bing realized that the "zombie" she had created ran away after almost half a minute, she stomped her feet and chased after her.
After half an hour, Ye Shanlan ran back panting, she had already died once, her body and soul had been greatly traumatized, and the long-term all-out running had brought her a great burden, she felt that her muscles were painful, and she should have been strained, but no matter what, she finally threw Xu Bing away. Ye Shanlan knew that this was only a temporary expedient measure, the task of space arrangement would not be so easy to solve, Xu Bing would chase after her in a while, she had to race against time now.
Ye Shan Lan ran into the café, dragged her sore legs to the man's side, and said, "Please help me, I'm being chased by a man." ”
The man looked up at Ye Shanlan, his face was covered by a mask, he couldn't see what his expression was, he said indifferently: "This young lady, why should I help you?" ”
Forehead? And why? Isn't this person the way out of the spatial arrangement? Ye Shanlan shuddered, and a white sweat broke out. At this time, she was already panicked, she didn't know what to do at all, she guessed wrong? Seeing that time is passing minute by minute, Xu Bing may chase after him at any time, what should I do?!
Fortunately, Ye Shan Lan was not fighting alone, and soon, she calmed down and said, "I know this person. As she spoke, she bit her index finger and wrote a line of characters on the table with blood.
The man glanced at Ye Shanlan's hand, although he didn't quite understand why this girl's fingernails suddenly turned ink, but he didn't care too much, what he cared about was the words on the table: "Do you know him?" ”
Ye Shanlan nodded and said, "Yes." ”
The man continued, "What is your relationship?" ”
Ye Shanlan took a deep breath and said, "He is my benefactor, I was seriously injured and was about to die, he encouraged me, and I promised him to live well." ”
The man chuckled and said, "Do you know his identity?" ”
Ye Shanlan shook his head and said, "I don't know, but he said that you are credible." ”
"I'm really looking for trouble!" The man muttered softly, "Well, since he's said so, if I don't help to appear too ruthless, sit down, and I'll see who's getting you in trouble." ”
Ye Shanlan sat opposite him obediently, as soon as she sat down, Xu Bing chased in, and when she saw Ye Shanlan, Xu Bing scolded and was about to rush over.
The man stretched out his hand to stop Xu Bing and said, "Can't you people in the Chibu cause less trouble?" The tone was extremely disgusted, as if he had seen something disgusting.
When Xu Bing saw the man, he was stunned for a moment, quietly took a half step back, and said, "You people don't make trouble, this is our territory!" As he spoke, he waved his arms, a bit of a posture of teeth and claws, but it was obvious that the momentum was much weaker.
"Your territory?" The man stood up, looked at Xu Bing condescendingly, and said, "You losers don't reflect on your mistakes, and you keep causing trouble for us, and now you dare to draw a territory?" Do you really think that the Soul Breaker is an ornament? ”
Xu Bing trembled with anger, she pointed at the man and said, "Okay, look down on us, right?" You wait for me. After saying that, he turned around angrily and ran out.
Seeing this scene, Ye Shanlan said, "I'm sorry. ”
The man sat down, waved his hand and said, "It's none of your business, those guys are so restless that they don't want to think about what time this is?" We're all trying to maintain the big picture, but what about them? The man's tone became more and more aggressive, obviously really angry.
Seeing this, Ye Shanlan hurriedly said, "I'd better go first, I'm really sorry for the trouble for you." ”
The man thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you go first." ”
Hearing this, Ye Shanlan breathed a sigh of relief, she quickly stood up, thanked her again, and walked out quickly. Seeing the hazy door, Ye Shanlan completely put her heart down, but fortunately she ran out in time.
PS: The line that Hayama Lan wrote on the table with blood came from the last scene of the mission "Return".
