On January 23, 2016, the sun was shining, the sky was cloudless, and the spring was warm and the flowers were blooming, but this was actually just an ordinary day, not a traditional holiday, nor Valentine's Day and Christmas, which have been popular in the West over the years, so for most of the soothsayers of the Red River Branch of the Black Cloud Alliance, this day is actually nothing special.

When the first rays of sunlight in the morning penetrated the distance between the sun and the blue star, and shone on the floor-to-ceiling glass windows of the Black Cloud Alliance cafeteria, the huge restaurant was already full of people, those who walked in, those who walked out, those who looked for food with plates, or those who greeted each other in twos and threes, or just sat at the table in a daze, and there was an endless stream of them.

The Black Cloud Alliance is worthy of being the largest soothsayer organization in the Federation, and in a city like Red River, the number of soothsayers is also somewhat amazing.

Moreover, more importantly, this cafeteria of the Black Cloud Alliance is actually on the top floor of this building, on the thirtieth floor, where the soothsayers can also enjoy the cityscape of the Red River while dining.

The building is somewhat like the Pentagon in the United States, with houses on all sides and empty in the middle.

On a table near the glass window, there were four people sitting in front of and on the left and right, all of whom were in their thirties and forties, and they looked like they were in the prime of life.

The four of them were bathed in the warm sunshine, and each of them was sprinkled with a layer of beautiful brilliance, but at this moment, the four of them did not speak, they all just buried their heads and ate, eating without speaking, which seemed to be the habit of the four people.

I don't know when, the slowest of the four people finished eating the snow-white steamed buns on the plate, so the oldest of them picked up the cup, took a small sip of coffee, cleared his throat, and then asked softly: "Did you read yesterday's report?" ”

"Looked." The man on the left said with a blank face.

"I watched it too." The man on the right suddenly showed a worried expression.

The man on the other side didn't speak, just nodded.

"It's not good." The man sighed.

"Yes, a few decades ago, the era of the Force was exhausted, and the era of the Force warriors came to an end, and now, the magic is gone, and several Western powers have announced that the era of magic is over, and it won't be long before our Federation will officially announce it. Without magic, we soothsayers don't have much to do. The man on the right was the first to speak.

"But that's not what worries me the most." The man who spoke first said.

"Huh?" The man on the left was stunned.

"What do you mean?" The man on the right is also a little unclear.

"Are you worried" The man on the other side raised an eyebrow, but stopped talking.

"Have you heard? I don't remember where I heard the news, saying that after the end of the magic age, our divination era will also end, I heard that there is a soothsayer in Germany who is infinitely close to the prophetic realm divination to a prophecy, saying that in the near future, the spiritual power of the soothsayer will slowly disappear and return to the level of a normal person, it is said that there are fewer and fewer astrological geniuses in recent years, which is a sign of this. ”

"What?"

"This can't be, right?"

"Really?"

Several people were speechless in shock.

Seeing this scene, the man who spoke first burst out laughing: "It seems that you guys are too timid, didn't I just hear about it, and I don't know where the gossip is?" Besides, even if the era of divination really ends, we don't have to worry about it in this life, it's impossible to swoop and have nothing left, right, if the era of divination is to end, there must be a process? ”

The other three were stunned, and then laughed together.

"You guy, you're so boring!"

"That's it! We're brothers! How can there be such a scare of your own brother! ”

"Three drinks tonight!"

The three of them were talking and laughing in such a low voice, when someone suddenly raised their heads and inadvertently noticed some small chaos at the door of the restaurant, so they craned their necks and looked.

"What's wrong?" Someone looked up strangely and looked in that direction.

"That guy looks like he's raw? Our Black Cloud has recently recruited people again? ”

A few people looked in that direction strangely, and after a while, a soothsayer said, "I know that guy, his name is Zhang Hao, and he is a soothsayer who was only recruited in the past few days." ”

"Just brought in? These two days don't seem to be the time to recruit, right? "There was a guy who didn't care much about current affairs asked.

"Special channels came in. I heard that he is Zhang Hu's illegitimate son. "There is humanity.

"Oh! No wonder! ”

After a pause, a soothsayer suddenly said, "Zhang Hu's illegitimate son? Didn't I hear that Zhang Hu's illegitimate son had any conflict with Dandelion's Li Qingniu? I heard that I also asked Hongchen for mediation, do you think this is a successful mediation? But how can that kind of person also introduce black clouds? I heard that that guy was unscrupulous when dealing with Li Qingniu, and even the bottom line was crossed, Li Qingniu is now a celebrity in the Federation, the most talented astrologer and soothsayer, it won't be that he can't take Zhang Hao, right? ”

"If there was a way, Zhang Hao would have been arrested a long time ago, Li Laoyi would have gone!"

"The world is going to be in chaos!"

"What's the solution, people have a relationship, Zhang Hu, don't you know?" One person snorted dissatisfiedly: "Look at that guy's arrogant appearance, he quarreled with someone on the first day, damn, isn't this just here to announce that he has a strong background?" What about the genius astrologers of Dandelion who dare not take him? We, the people, had better not provoke him in the future! ”

"Humph! What a man! ”

"It's really a bit too much."

"What's the solution? People have a background and a relationship, people like Li Qingniu can't do anything about him, let's see him in the future, let's go farther away! ”

"!"

"No wonder the black clouds are not as good as a year after year!"

A few people were indignant, but it was just to express their feelings, soothsayers are the most bloodless group in the world, there is no way, everyone's status in society is too high, and most others dare not provoke, so there is no pressure to unite among soothsayers.

Moreover, most of the grievances between the soothsayers themselves also take a compromise approach to deal with each other, after all, compared to the cruelty of your life and death, it is still comfortable to live, so after a long time, most of the soothsayers are not bloody.

Therefore, at this moment, although everyone has grievances, they are only unhappy.

Zhang Hao is a little arrogant, Zhang Hu is also a little domineering, and he can't get used to it, since this is the case, then let's watch less in the future, if you can't afford to provoke it, then you will don't want to provoke right and wrong in the future.

That's it, that's enough!

However, there is still some resentment in everyone's hearts: Damn, who is it? Committed such a big thing, no at all, and still come here to be arrogant?

At this moment, most of the soothsayers in the restaurant are in this state in their hearts, secretly scolding, expressing their anger when others can't see it, but that's all.

Because of thinking of Zhang Hao's matter, the four people by the window were all a little depressed, and they didn't speak, just lowered their heads and drank coffee, or simply were in a daze.

At some point, a person suddenly stabbed a few people around him with his hand: "That guy is coming here." ”

"Huh?"

"It's really coming here."

"You can't be trying to trouble us, are you?"

"Probably not, although we had some grievances with Zhang Hu before, but that was three years ago, besides, it was already mediated at that time."

"But why did that guy look at us directly, and not smile?"

"Could it be that he found out about it, right?" Someone was suddenly startled.

"That thing? What's that? ”

"On December 5 last year, a few of us went to Xiaocanghe together"

"What?"

"Wouldn't it? If that's the case, we're in trouble! ”

The four of them looked at each other, and their hearts became nervous.

"! Why is you so unlucky today, and you came here to be targeted by this ****? ”

"I'm afraid we'll have a hard time in the future."

"Looks like you're going to have to be careful!"

"We'd better find someone to mediate quickly, otherwise we'll have a lot of dreams at night."

Several people were muttering and talking like this, on the other side, Zhang Hao, who was thirty meters away, looked at Zhang Hao, who was walking over this way, suddenly sighed, and then covered his head with his hands.

"Don't kill me!"

"Don't kill me!"

"Please! Don't kill me! Please! Don't kill me! ”

Zhang Hao covered his head and screamed miserably, the whole person was like he had lost his mind, he slammed on the table, and after standing up, he slammed into the wall again, but before everyone came to his senses, he had already rushed out of the restaurant with a scream, and then jumped down from the hole in the center of the building outside the restaurant.

After a while, with a bang, Zhang Hao's body fell heavily on the ground on the first floor, and he couldn't die anymore.
