Chapter 1146: Strange Urban Legends
It seems that Alice and the others have also found out the true situation of this factory.
After thinking about it, Liu Xing replied to Alice with a text message, sending them all the information he had received from Maeda and Satoshi Hashimoto.
And when Liu Xing finished sending the text message, he saw Sawada Jida and Zhang Jingxu walking towards him.
"How's it going?"
Liu Xing looked at Zhang Jingxu with a smile on his face and said: "My side is not bad, I got a lot of useful information, we will talk in detail in the car later; Anyway, the situation over there should be pretty good, right? Otherwise, I wouldn't have laughed so happily. ”
Zhang Jingxu nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I also got a lot of important information here, by the way, where did Satoshi Hashimoto go?" ”
Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.
As soon as Zhang Jingxu's words fell, Satoshi Hashimoto ran back from the door, while Maeda continued to smoke leisurely at the door.
Now that everyone had arrived, Liu Xing and the others got in the car directly and left the natural gas tank factory.
"If nothing else, there should only be five members of the public faction in the gas tank factory, and the identity of the factory director is somewhat doubtful, and I think there is an 80% chance that the foursome in this book will be from the public faction."
Liu Xing looked at Zhang Jingxu and asked curiously, "You should have already seen the old factory director, so what do you think of him?" ”
"A good old man."
Zhang Jingxu said seriously: "In my opinion, the old factory director is a typical good old man, so I think the old factory director is not so much a member of the public faction, but a marginal figure of a certain family or secret church, because after I heard about the old factory director's experience from Jeddah, I also felt that the old factory director may be a member of the public faction, so I found an opportunity to test the old factory director a few words, and then I found that he didn't know much about some of the major events that have happened over the years, and it didn't seem to be pretending. Therefore, I suspect that the old factory director is very likely to be a member of a large family, and he broke away from the family for some reason when he was young, just like a righteous me. ”
After Zhang Jingxu said this, Liu Xing also suddenly realized: "Yes, when you say this, I also think that the old factory director may be another positive me, but he is more bloody than a positive me, and directly chose to leave the family and work hard alone, even if it is just a small factory director, he has already made him very satisfied; However, his identity may not be simple, he should have a high status in his original family, otherwise the quartet would not have suddenly come to the factory to work as a wage earner when he was old and frail. ”
"That's right, I also think that the old factory director may be related to the patriarch of a big family, otherwise it would be impossible to invite the four brothers in this book, you must know that the four brothers in this book are well-known mercenaries in the island country."
Zhang Jingxu said,While taking out his mobile phone and sending Liu Xing a URL,Liu Xing clicked on it and jumped to an interface that seemed to be a game website,There are not only game introductions and screenshots,And there are all kinds of activity information,But this "game" has closed the server three months ago。
Obviously, this is selling dog meat on the head of a sheep.
Liu Xing clicked on the "BOSS" interface in the game introduction, and saw a lot of comic-style bounty orders, including a boss named "Nakamoto Four Demon Generals" appeared on the first page with a reward amount of 10 million.
And the appearance of this "Four Demon Generals" is almost exactly the same as the leader of the four people in this middle school that Liu Xing saw before, but there are some decorative scars on his face.
Click on the introduction of the "Four Demon Generals in the Middle School", and after automatically ignoring those more exaggerated descriptions, Liu Xing can be regarded as understanding the situation of the foursome in this book.
To put it simply, the four of them are from the same orphanage, and since the director's surname is called Benchu, they also inherit this surname and are called brothers.
When the four brothers were ten years old, the dean of the middle school died suddenly due to a heart attack, which made the four brothers who respected the dean of the middle school very sad, but before they were sad, the new director kicked them out of the orphanage - because the orphanage is the private property of the dean of the middle school, and the geographical location is also very good, so the eldest son of the dean of the middle school is ready to "clean up" the orphans after inheriting the orphanage, so that he can sell the orphanage.
The four Honchu brothers, who were kicked out of the orphanage, had a very difficult time outside, and soon had to join a small secret church, because this secret church had enough to eat; However, this secret church will definitely not raise the four brothers in vain, so the four brothers quickly became guinea pigs to accept all kinds of experiments, and the four brothers were lucky to not only survive those heinous experiments, but also gain great power because of these experiments!
In the end, after killing the head of this small secret church, the ghoul, the four brothers became mercenaries who worked for money, and gradually gained a firm foothold in the mercenary circle of the island country... However, their strength is not strong or weak, so their positioning is a little awkward, resulting in them not being able to find a suitable "job" in many cases, and can only do odd jobs like ordinary people.
However, the creator of this website, and the boss with the highest bounty in the "game" - Black Knife Dragon, I discovered the potential of the four brothers, so he took the initiative to become the agent of the four brothers, and helped the four brothers get a lot of "bodyguard" employment contracts, and as a result, the four brothers became "the best bodyguards in the island country", and the base money for each protection task was 10 million US dollars, and then they had to be given another 5 million every month.
So Liu Xing did a simple calculation and found that the four brothers in Benzhong had earned hundreds of millions of dollars from the old factory director.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing couldn't help but gasp, and said to Zhang Jingxu: "It seems that this old factory director should have a patriarch brother of a big family, after all, the annual income of those ordinary families may even be enough for 10 million US dollars." ”
"Yes, so I've asked Yin En to investigate the identity of the old factory director, if nothing else, after we go back, Yin En should be able to give us a result, after all, there are not many people who meet these conditions; But then again, I don't think the old factory director knew that the four brothers were here to protect him, and I still have a question, that is, why does the old factory director need mercenaries of the level of the four brothers to protect? Zhang Jingxu said with some doubts.
Hearing Zhang Jingxu say this, Liu Xing said directly: "Then there must be something that has been eyeing the old factory director, so his brother has to send the four brothers to protect the old factory director, but the current strength of the four brothers in this middle school should be able to single-handedly pick out mythical creatures such as ghouls, so it can be inferred from this that the mythical creatures that threaten the old factory director are not too strong, at most they are an elite-level ghoul or deep diver... But the old factory manager had been living in the factory all these years, so how did he provoke a mythical creature? ”
Liu Xing touched his chin and continued: "Wait, is this related to the possibility of ghosts hitting the wall near the factory every rainy night?" ”
"Ghost hitting the wall?"
Looking at Zhang Jingxu and Sawada Jida, who looked puzzled, Liu Xing told the story Maeda told him again.
"Oh, it turns out that the prototype of Nagoya's top ten urban legends, the Rainy Night Highway, turned out to be here."
Sawada Yoshida said seriously: "Like other cities, Nagoya also has its own ten urban legends, the most famous of which is this rainy night road, simply put, on a rainy night, if you drive on a suburban road, you will suddenly find yourself entering a never-ending road, but you just keep driving forward, and you can leave this road when the rain stops, so this urban legend is also known as the safest urban legend ever, It's just that some drivers with poor psychological tolerance may still have a psychological breakdown because of this. ”
Speaking of this, Sawada Yoshida suddenly showed a regretful expression, "I used to have a right-hand man, one day he took leave to go to a certain city next door to attend his friend's wedding, and by the time he drove back to Nagoya, it was already dark and it was raining; At that time, because I was busy with the audit report of a project, so I didn't notice his call to me, but when he returned to the company, I found that he was a little unwilling, and he wanted to resign when he came to me, but fortunately I knew a good psychiatrist, so he returned to normal, but after that, as long as it was a rainy night, he didn't dare to leave the company or his home, so I sent him to work in a branch in another city, and I heard that he was completely normal as soon as he arrived in another company. ”
Just as Liu Xing wanted to speak, Sawada Jida continued: "I thought this guy was playing me, because he didn't want to work under me, so he borrowed this urban legend and pretended to be a ghost to achieve the goal of leaving me... I didn't expect this to be true. ”
"So, we're not the only one on the road that will hit the wall on a rainy night?" Zhang Jingxu looked at the scenery on the side of the road and asked.
Sawada Yoshida thought for a while, nodded and said, "It should be so, anyway, I heard that as long as it is a road in the suburbs of Nagoya, there is a possibility that ghosts will hit the wall on a rainy night, so now as long as it is a rainy night, you will find that there are not many cars from Nagoya on the suburban roads except for cars coming in from other places." ”
"That's interesting, I don't think that's the case."
Zhang Jingxu frowned and said: "If I guess correctly, the initiator of this urban legend should be a mythical creature or magician who can illusion, he will wander on the suburban roads on rainy nights, and as long as he finds a suitable target, he will cast illusions on them, making them mistakenly think that they have suddenly driven on a road with no end, when in fact their car may have turned off and stopped on the side of the road... But I'm still a little confused, what the hell is this guy trying to do? Is it just trying to play tricks on people? Or is it practicing spells? ”
Like Zhang Jingxu, Liu Xing also couldn't figure out this problem.
Since this urban legend happened randomly on a certain section of road in the suburbs on a rainy night, it means that the mastermind behind this urban legend should be a person or mythical creature who can move freely, so since it is a man or a mythical creature, then he/it must have done it for a reason, it can't just want to have fun, right?
Wait a minute.
Liu Xing's mind flashed with inspiration, and he hurriedly asked Sawada Jida a question, "Jida, do you know when this urban legend began?" ”
Sawada Jida shook his head and said seriously, "How could I possibly know this?" Although I know that there are mythical creatures in this world, I still think that urban legends are all made up, after all, mythical creatures don't just let those who see them go; Besides, the urban legend of this rainy night highway is very strange, or it feels inexplicable, and if it were changed to those who experienced the rainy night highway, how long and how long it will take for them to die suddenly, I would probably believe that this urban legend is true. ”
Well, Liu Xing feels that if he were an ordinary person, he would also think that the urban legend that someone had an accident would be more convincing, and this kind of urban legend that nothing happened in the end is soulless.
Since Sawada Jida didn't know, Liu Xing could only send a text message to Satoshi Hashimoto, but less than ten seconds after this text message was sent, Satoshi Hashimoto called back.
"If I'm not mistaken, this urban legend should have started more than twenty years ago, but in the first ten years, this urban legend did not occur very often, sometimes only once in two or three years, and the most frequent occurrence occurred twice a year; However, in the last decade, the frequency of this urban legend has suddenly increased a lot, almost once a month, but this kind of urban legend is usually circulated in local forums in Nagoya, so there are many people who use this urban legend to make up stories to gain attention, so I think the frequency of this urban legend has been about five or six times a year in the last ten years, but in the last year or two, the frequency of occurrence has dropped significantly to the point of two or three times a year. ”
After hanging up Satoshi Hashimoto's phone, Liu Xing closed his eyes and said: "That, I suddenly have a not very reliable idea, that is, the maker of this urban legend is likely to be the old factory director, so the four brothers in this middle school are actually not here to protect the old factory director, but to monitor the old factory director." ”
