Chapter 5: The Mysterious Killer
I ended my work early, but because of the top league, it was delayed until dark. After all, it's a full-server league, and Luo Li is not interested in prize money, but the winner of the competition can get limited livery equipment designed by the official special artist, which is a bit attractive.
As for the identity of the special painter, even Luo Li, the weapon designer who often deals with the painters, doesn't know who it is, so it can be seen that the official must have invited some mysterious person this time.
"Luo Li, don't worry about anything else, during the game, you just cover Peach, and everything is OK if she doesn't die."
In the guild bar, the duck team was in full swing arranging league affairs, and Luo Li's mobile phone suddenly vibrate, "I'll answer the call, you continue." “
Luo Li took out his mobile phone, and the name on the caller ID was Su Xiaotong, "Hey, what's wrong?" ”
"Where are you, I forgot I didn't have the key."
Luo Li sighed, how could he have such trouble, "You wait a minute, I'll go back." “
Hanging up the phone, Luo Li prepared to go offline.
"It's so early for Luo to go offline today, could it be that who are you going to go on a date?"
"Dating you big-headed ghost." Luo Li scolded Wang Meili and quickly went offline, put on his black coat and hurried back to the rental house.
Luo Li would not have imagined what kind of trouble awaited him after this leisurely night passed.
Su Xiaotong was waiting for Luo Li outside the door of the rental house, she bought dinner, but it was just a lunch.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry for your trouble, I bought a bento."
"There are discounted vegetables in the supermarket downstairs, so don't buy a bento next time."
You're deliberately making things difficult for me, you don't know I can't cook.
"I know you're a ghost." Luo Li scolded in his heart, "Did I ask you to cook?" ”
Luo Li looked at the lunch box that Su Xiaotong brought back, and poured two servings, "You clean up your things first, and I'll make some soup." ”
"You know how to cook?" Su Xiaotong seemed to have discovered a new world, and her surprised expression seemed to say, "This unreasonable villain can actually cook!" ”
There was also a piece of southern tofu that had been sitting for two days and a piece of lunch ham in the fridge. Su Xiaotong had only seen the living room and his bedroom before, perhaps because he couldn't cook, so he automatically ignored the kitchen. When she went in, she found that compared to the deserted living room, there were caves in the kitchen, stoves, woks, frying pans, soup pots, and even ovens.
"You're a chef, no wonder you don't like takeout."
For Su Xiaotong's curiosity, Luo Li chose to ignore it, picked up the kitchen knife to cut the tofu package, and cut the soft and tender tofu into small pieces, within two minutes, the ham also followed in the footsteps of the tofu, although it was soup, Luo Li used a wok, the tofu was slightly fried in oil and put in salt and ham, stir-fry for a while to add the water and seasonings prepared in advance, the water bubbled, the clear white water inhaled the essence of the ingredients and turned into a milky white soup, and in less than a quarter of an hour, a simple soup dish was served in the bowl.
That's right, it's a bowl, Luo Li only made a small bowl of soup.
Su Xiaotong couldn't help but complain, "You are the chef, or the kind of high-end restaurant, a dish is super expensive and only a small one." ”
"Less nonsense, pack your things and come over for dinner." As he spoke, Luo Li put the takeaway on the plate, and it was rare to have time to eat a good meal at home, and Luo Li didn't want to mess with it.
One meal made Su Xiaotong full of curiosity about his annoying roommate. "What the hell are you doing, are you really a chef?"
"It's not."
"Can I go to your room?"
"Whatever, I don't mind."
With permission, Su Xiaotong pushed open Luo Li's door, and a bookshelf the size of a wall came into view, "You are too tyrant, such a big bookshelf." ”
The bookshelf is actually just a display case, and the orange wooden planks divide the behemoth into small compartments, each of which is lined with models of firearms of different sizes. Each of the guns on this is a work designed by Luo Li in Nebula VR.
The display case does not occupy the entire wall, and in the corner by the window is a desk with some drawing tools.
All that's left is a bed and a gaming helmet on the bedside table. Luo Li usually goes to the Internet café, but in order to make an emergency, he still prepared a game helmet.
"Enough of it." Luo Li stood outside the door, watching the little girl look at the models on the cabinet one by one like a silly child, and couldn't understand how she could have such curiosity about a stranger.
Su Xiaotong didn't even know what Luo Li's work was, and she naturally didn't know the significance of these models. Luo Li had no interest in explaining her work to a silly girl who didn't even know about Xingyun, and after seeing the same, Luo Li simply kicked her out.
After taking care of everything, Luo Li hadn't slept soundly like tonight for a long time, and when he woke up, it was six o'clock the next day. Su Xiaotong hadn't gotten up yet, Luo Li didn't care about her, and went out to the New Century Internet café after a simple wash.
When he entered the door, the network manager chatted with him for a few words, "Brother Li, have you heard, last night there was a guy with a knife who squatted in Yetu to fight local tyrants, and the worst was Boss Qi, who was killed three times." '
Players who use knives, there are also such people, compared to other fantasy games, Nebula's combat is more realistic, some people are looking for a special melee weapon to deal with spears and cannons, but I haven't heard of anyone who has a special relationship with the local tyrant.
Luo Li saw today's Nebula Morning Post as soon as he went online, and the news about the mysterious assassin made headlines. After reading the news, Luo Li was a little surprised, the target of the assassination was not just as simple as a local tyrant, the article mentioned a few players who were tricked, and Peaches was not spared.
There is a more detailed list of victims on the forum, and all of them have a common characteristic, they all use weapons made by Luo Li himself, and players who can use god-level weapons are not fuel-efficient lamps.
Although he didn't know what this meant, Luo Li vaguely felt that trouble was coming.
Luo Li looked around, and Peaches, who was the most leisurely in the past, was not at the bar at this time, so there was no need to ask, he must have gone to take revenge on the killer.
In addition to Momoko, the vice president of the guild used the weapons made by Luo Li, but his name did not appear on the list of victims.
Sandalwood happened to be resting at the bar, he was of average height, and he was inconspicuous sitting on the sofa, but the small eyes under his short blond hair made people who had seen him think that this person was very sweet.
"Brother Tan, it's early"
"Early"
Luo Li asked about the mysterious killer, and Sandalwood smiled, "It's a guy with a dagger, wearing a black cloak, not tall, it looks like a female player, she hides her ID, and she doesn't know her name." ”
The information given by the vice captain is more detailed than on the forum, but it's a pity that I don't know what this person's ID is, in other words, how can Sandalwood be so clear about this mysterious person, "Brother Tan, did that mysterious person also hunt you down?" ”
"yes, I was chased all night, and I came back a little annoyed." Sandalwood squinted, and he didn't feel angry in his tone, but it was a bit like being chased by a fan girl all night.
There's no way, you can't find anything just sitting like this, and Luo Li doesn't want to care about this kind of thing, after all, people haven't found themselves yet, so let's talk about what happened.
Adhering to the ostrich mind, Lowe left the game.
At noon, he made an appointment with Zhang Lei, who not only has her own house in Yandu, but also has her own comic studio.
Zhang Lei's home is decorated in a small and fresh style, which feels very comfortable. "Sister Lei, I brought the model of the new work."
In fact, this kind of thing doesn't need Luo Li to go on a trip at all, as long as there are 3D drawings, Zhang Lei can find someone to do it herself. Luo Li just wanted to find a friend to talk to in reality. Similar to many gamers who rely on Nebula for food, the intense work, poor social circle, and boring interests make it impossible for this guy, who is known in the game to be a great god, to find someone to talk to.
