Chapter 128: Uncle Yun's Invitation
Uncle Yun looked at him silently, and after a long time, he sighed and said, "I'm more and more curious about your relationship with him, I have looked through all your files, but none of the people you know can match his characteristics." ”
Hearing him say this, Zhou Li comforted him seriously and considerately: "It's okay, keep working hard, as long as you persevere, there will be new discoveries one day." ”
Perseverance your sister, you give me an honest confession, bastard!
The corners of Uncle Yun's mouth twitched, and he wisely gave up the topic, no longer intending to go deeper.
Ignoring that this was a ward, he took out a cigarette roll from his pocket, put it on his mouth, and handed it to Zhou Li: "Do you want one?" ”
"Thanks, quit."
"Tsk, that's right, young people smoke less."
Not ashamed at all, Uncle Yun lit the cigarette, took a deep breath and spit out the smoke, and was silent for a long time.
It wasn't until a long time later, when a cigarette was about to burn out, that he spoke again:
"Hey, I said, in fact, you kid is also a capable person, right?"
Looked at by those eyes that flashed with purple light, Zhou Li understood that this problem could no longer be avoided like the previous ones, and after thinking silently for a while, he finally nodded:
"It should be."
With a look of helplessness, he spread his hands and said: "It's a pity that the ability is just a very simple vision enhancement, except that there is no other benefit except for not having to buy a telescope." ”
Contrary to Uncle Yun's expectations, Zhou Li simply admitted this possibility. Because Zhou Li understands that even if he doesn't admit it, I'm afraid he won't be able to hide it for long, so it's better to admit it directly.
Uncle Yun looked at him seriously, without saying a word, until the cigarette in his hand burned to ashes, and then he threw away the cigarette butt that was about to burn his fingers: "So, the last question ......?"
He paused and looked at Zhou Li: "Do you want to join the 'relevant departments'?" ”
The invitation came suddenly, but Zhou Li couldn't tell whether it was goodwill or something else, and thought silently.
Seeing his hesitation, Uncle Yun smiled in a low voice: "We can ignore Wang Yin's affairs, that guy has also sold you a lot of our information during this time, right?" ”
Obviously, he may have already discovered Wang Yin's abnormality and his connection with others, maybe he wanted to mislead Zhou Li, or maybe he wanted to leave a microphone, but he didn't have a seizure.
He didn't care if Zhou Li and the unknown person were the same person, as long as he was sure that they had some kind of connection.
Even if the other party is unwilling to cooperate, he doesn't want to completely push him to his opposite, there is always the possibility and opportunity to cooperate, after all, hasn't he already caught one of his clues now?
He stretched out his hand and patted Zhou Li's shoulder: "Don't think too badly about the system, the discipline of the upper authorities is very loose for the capable, just register and put up a name." I don't get paid, but if I can help occasionally, I will be paid a lot. ”
"There's no need to reply to me now, just call the number on this business card if you have the interest."
Uncle Yun smiled and put a business card on the table and pushed it in front of Zhou Li.
When Zhou Li's eyes fell on the business card, he couldn't help laughing in the sudden joy in his heart: "CCTV Science and Education Channel - Entering the Science Column Group, Yun Jingui ...... Burst! ”
Yun Jin Gui, a good name for local customs...... It doesn't match Uncle Yun's light-hearted demeanor at all!
"Laugh what a laugh!" Uncle Yun obviously didn't encounter this situation for the first time, but he still couldn't help but blow his beard and glare: "Luo Bai, you can explain it yourself, anyway, he is angry now." ”
Giving him a blank look, Uncle Yun picked up his briefcase and prepared to leave.
"Hey, hey, this ......" Zhou Li stopped him, shaking his wrist in his pretended puzzled eyes, the handcuffs rubbing against the guardrail of the hospital bed with a crisp sound.
"Ah, sorry, forgot."
Uncle Yun said without any apologies, slowly took out a small key from his pocket, put away the handcuffs, and waved his hand, "Then, next time I will come back to you." ”
Looking for your sister...... Don't come to me for the rest of your life, okay?
Zhou Li rolled his eyes, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after watching him leave, feeling that the short half-hour conversation had made him extremely tired.
He had done almost all his best to deal with his various side problems, and he would rather have another hard-to-face fight with the knight than deal with this middle-aged man who seemed to be able to infer a huge amount of information from a single sentence.
What he said was perhaps only a small part of his reasoning.
Perhaps, he still has doubts about his identity, but he has not specified it, but if he thinks so, this may also be a gesture of goodwill?
Or, he may ......
Zhou Li smiled bitterly and patted his head, this kind of thing really can't be thought about too much, the more you think about it, the more complicated it becomes, it will only scare yourself.
In fact, as long as you think about it seriously, Uncle Yun and Zhou Li have no reason to be directly hostile.
Besides, Uncle Yun was just investigating easily, if it was confirmed that the other party had cooperation value, he wouldn't care about this kind of thing - anyway, in his eyes, the underworld is like a leek, cutting one stubble and growing another, although it can't be stopped, but who can't cut it the same?
It's just that Zhou Li doesn't want others to associate himself with the person who killed the ghost.
Is such a painstaking disguise good or bad? Zhou Li couldn't think it all through in a short period of time, but he understood that he wasn't ready to fight Odin yet. Now I can't match the strongest ability in the world.
So, he chose to be silent.
Taking a deep breath, he no longer looked like these things, but closed his eyes and activated the 'phantom disguise' in his body, and a trace of mist appeared out of thin air, wrapped his body, and then dissipated invisibly.
In the room, it was as if he had fallen asleep again, but his will walked through a tunnel covered with silver circuits. After reaching the soul manifestation, he was able to diffuse his spiritual power outside the body with the help of the World Tree.
Now, however, his will has fallen in an invisible vortex created by the 'illusion disguise', clinging to the mist, revealing in an empty space in a vague human form.
Covered by a dense fog on all sides, the girl sat on the stone steps full of the marks of time, her palms supporting her immature face, and humming a vague tune in a low voice.
Beside her, an ugly, small robot was tirelessly flipping and whirling around her like a pet.
With the armament condensed by the core of this subspace, Zhou Li once again connected the 'real' and 'unreal' with consciousness and came to this world.
That's why he didn't leave with a sad parting, and with the 'illusion disguise', he could come back at any time.
And if she relies on the illusion armament, Qichu can also return to the real world to a limited extent, but to a certain extent, she can only manipulate the illusion condensed by herself.
But what does it matter if you can see, hear, and feel, even if your body is just an illusion?
Silently appearing behind her, Zhou Li raised the palm of the mist and touched her hair.
The girl named 'Qichu' turned her head, a rare smile appeared on her pure face, and she gently shook her head under Zhou Li's palm, making a faint sound in her throat.
Zhou Li sat down beside her, turned his head to look at her seemingly unchanged appearance: "Are you okay?" ”
Qichu was still silent, nodding slightly.
"If you're alone, will you be lonely?"
Qichu looked into his eyes, laughed softly, and said in a still somewhat immature voice: "No, because it was from the beginning, alone." ”
Looking at her smile like this, Zhou Weizhong suddenly felt a little sad, maybe for her, loneliness and loneliness are no longer emotions, but a way of life, right?
couldn't help pinching her cheek, Zhou Li whispered: "I will come often in the future, after a while, I have to be ready to come here." ”
"Huh?" Qichu looked at him suspiciously.
"You can't just walk away without saying a word, can you? At least say goodbye. ”
Zhou Li rubbed her hair: "She will cry a lot." ”
At the mention of weak water, a trace of loss flashed in Qi Chu's eyes, and he nodded slightly.
"It's okay, I'll often pull you over there to play in the future. There are many more opportunities for you to meet. ”
Qi Chu raised his head, his eyes were puzzled and expectant, Zhou Li understood her eyes, and nodded with a smile: "Really." ”
Even if her mood had long been accustomed to the original calm and calm, the girl still couldn't suppress her excitement at the moment, which made Zhou Li feel a lot better when she looked at her.
Obviously she is already a ten-year-old girl, but she looks like a child, as long as this promise can make her so happy that she doesn't know what to do.
Because there were too many things at hand, Zhou Li didn't stay long, and left after staying for a while.
He really didn't worry about Lu Qiaoshui staying at home alone, and when he woke up and found that Qi Chu was gone, what would he be anxious about.
The will returned to the body with the reflow of spiritual power, and Zhou Li opened his eyes again and saw the clock at the head of the bed.
Fortunately, he didn't sleep long, and now it's just a little over eight o'clock in the morning.
Although the whole body rested for a while, it was only after the battle that I felt a burst of pain, even if it was healed by the vitality of the World Tree, but after all, it took time.
Zhou Li had been fighting beyond his limits for so long, and if it weren't for the World Tree that ran through the nerve veins, the dark injuries left in his body and the strained muscles and ligaments would have been enough for him to lie in bed as a paralyzed patient for decades.
Standing up with some difficulty, he found that he was wearing a hospital gown, but Uncle Yun, who was wearing a somewhat torn set of clothes and a mobile phone, did not move.
And the two alchemy pistols left by Zhu Teng Zhou Li didn't bring them out of the subspace at all, anyway, if he was going all out to expand the World Tree now, he would be able to rely on the 'Phantom Camouflage' to open a narrow passage that was enough for matter to pass through, although it was a little troublesome, but at least it was safe, and it would not be lost or stolen.
As for the Blade of Mourning...... It has always been carried in Zhou Li's body, wherever he goes, and he learns it anytime, anywhere, and at the same time as the five subjects...... Ahem, although it doesn't seem to have this function, the killing techniques left by Ghost Cut are enough for Zhou Li to study for several years.
After grabbing the phone and hesitating for a long time, Zhou Li dialed the phone, but after waiting for a long time, Lu Xiaoshui connected in a daze: "Hey? Who to look for? ”
I said...... You're not going to sleep until now, are you? ”
Zhou Li couldn't help but have an urge to cover his face and sigh...... Sure enough, is Lu Xiaoshui the most powerful existence?
"Is it Zhou Li?" Lu Xiaoshui on the phone laughed in a daze: "Yes, you don't have to get up early to sleep soundly...... Sleep so lazy and happy......"
