Chapter 175: Kou Zhong and the Shadow
"Secret newspapers?"
A simple name, but it made the hearts of the nearly twenty newcomers present tense at the same time.
The two factions, led by the two men, turned their heads at the same time to look at the bloody logo behind them.
The three words of blood red in the middle of the hall horizontally, the Secret Newspaper Agency!
At a glance, everyone's hearts trembled for no reason, as if the simple font revealed a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood and treacherous horror.
One of the people led by the old boy, who was about 30 years old, was wearing a black casual suit, which was extremely eye-catching in the crowd, because he was two meters tall, had wide bones, and looked fierce and terrifying.
But there is a hint of wisdom in his eyes, and it seems that he is not a simple character.
He looked around Yan Yan and the others, and finally looked at Wu Cheng who was smoking in the corner.
He couldn't help sneering on his face, and said slowly: "Wu Cheng, old friends meet, don't you come out to reminisce about the past?" ”
When Yan Yan heard this, he couldn't help frowning.
Do they know?
Yes, looking at their dress, it is very consistent with Wu Cheng's previous style.
Wu Cheng walked out of the back row under the surprised eyes of everyone.
Glancing at the man, he sneered. "Kou Zhong, Kou Zhong, I didn't expect you to have today."
"Don't talk to me, what's going on?"
Wu Cheng looked at the group of brothers behind him and raised his head towards Kou Zhong.
"Come with me."
Kou Zhong looked back at Yan Yan, who had always stood without saying a word, secretly left a thought, and with a wave of his hand, eight or nine brothers followed Kou Zhong and Wu Cheng upstairs.
It seemed as if they had a high degree of discipline, and Kou Zhong's words were equivalent to a holy decree to them.
Even if a few of them were resentful and puzzled by the tragic death of the arrogant young man before, they didn't ask much.
Yan Yan looked at the back of Wu Cheng and the others leaving, frowned slightly, and looked at Xu Lang beside him.
Xu Lang was also paying attention to these at this time, and whispered: "It's not right! ”
Yan Yan nodded: "Yes, something is wrong." ”
He Xiao rolled on the ground for a while, and at this time the pain finally eased a little, and he slowly got up from the ground, staring at the departing back of Kou Zhong and the others with sinister eyes, gritting his teeth in his heart.
On the contrary, it was the man who led the way among the remaining dozen newcomers.
He looked like he was in his early thirties, his hair was neatly combed, and he stood there with a tall posture, and the people behind him looked like everything.
Some wore high school uniforms, others wore ordinary overalls, and the most maverick in the crowd was a blonde foreign man.
The man at the head behaved strangely at this time, stepped forward to support He Xiao, and said politely: "Hello, may I ask what is going on?" ”
This move impressed Xu Lang and others, and it seems that there are still some talents among the newcomers this time.
He Xiao thanked him softly and rubbed his arm that was a little numb, which was still the same old saying.
The current situation, the future tasks, and the origin of the newspaper were carefully explained.
After hearing this, these newcomers also had different expressions, some cried bitterly, and some sat on the ground and splashed, but basically they were all desperate.
However, the looks of several of the newcomers caught Xu Lang's attention.
The first is the man who spoke before, obviously they relied on him a lot in the novice tasks they had experienced before, and they also trusted him very much.
Kou Zhong is also a newcomer, and the first step is to try, but this man takes the initiative to show goodwill.
Obviously, this is a person who is active and knows how to judge the situation, which is in stark contrast to the previous Chen Xiaodong.
It seems that he is a malleable talent.
Although the man's expression didn't seem to change much, judging from his clenched fists and tight body, he was not so relaxed.
After a long time, he slowly spoke: "My name is Rong Chuan, and I am a teacher. ”
Then he stretched out his finger and pointed to the four men and one woman in high school uniforms behind him, "These four are my students." ”
He Xiao, as the captain, of course, has to show his attitude.
He waved his hand and said, "Let's go into the conference room, and we just happen to get to know each other." ”
A group of people entered the conference room.
He Xiao motioned for everyone to introduce themselves.
The first to stand up was the blonde foreigner, and Xu Lang noticed that he had been holding a Bible in his hand, as if he was a believer or something.
His face was unusually calm after hearing the rules of the newspaper, as if he did not have a deeper fear of evil spirits.
"My name is John, I am from North America, I have lived in Huhai City for seven or eight years, I am a missionary by profession, Captain He, what you said we will really be able to see demons in the future?"
He Xiaoleng paused, "Yes, it's right that you call it a demon." ”
John looked excited, and stood there rubbing his hands together, muttering something like God.
Xu Lang glanced at him strangely, this John spoke very well in Chinese, except for the accent is a little awkward, normal communication is indeed no problem.
But look at the way he looks......
Immediately after that, when the others were about to introduce themselves, John still did not sit down, he seemed very excited, and without waiting for the others to speak, he directly asked, "Do you know a missionary named Gabriel?" ”
Gabriel?
This name, Xu Lang and Cheng Guoguo are too familiar to them.
Isn't this the priest from a foreign country in the Forbidden Lands mission?
Xu Lang's expression was even more strange, and he looked at John for a while and didn't answer immediately.
John opened the conversation, "You shouldn't know, I've been looking for him for many years, he was invited by a friend to exorcise demons twenty years ago, but he never came back, I came to Huhai City to find him, but unfortunately ......"
When Xu Lang heard this, his heart was extremely terrifying.
How could it be such a coincidence?
In the past mission, the plot characters who were mentioned in one stroke, after 20 years, there are still people who enter the newspaper because of him?
Xu Lang swallowed his saliva, Cheng Guoguo finally couldn't help it at this time.
"We know Gabriel."
Yes?
John's eyes only lit up, and Xu Lang had never seen anyone with eyes so bright.
John jumped out of the chair directly, ran to Cheng Guoguo's side quickly, held his fat hand, and asked eagerly, "Where is he?" ”
This......
Cheng Guoguo looked a little embarrassed, scratched his head and looked at John so urgently, and was a little embarrassed to tell the truth for a while.
But the nameless beside him, half-closed his eyes, said lightly: "He died twenty years ago!" ”
Yes?
When John heard this, he looked at Nameless in a daze, and then his expression was furious, and he grabbed him by the collar and was about to pull him up.
But don't look at Nameless's height is only about 1.75 meters, John looks like he has to be nearly 1.9 meters, but no matter how hard John tries, he can't shake Nameless in the slightest.
Instead, Nameless glanced at him and casually kicked him in the calf.
John fell to his feet, but then he quickly got up again, grabbed Nameless's arm, and tears flowed from his nose.
"What the hell is going on with him, I've been looking for him for so long, what......"
He was so anxious that he was so incoherent that he even began to use half-English and half-Chinese words, and it seemed that Gabriel had a very unique relationship with him.
But no matter what he said, Nameless was indifferent and didn't look at him.
Cheng Guoguo finally couldn't stand it anymore and pulled John.
"Who are Gabriel?"
"That's my father!"
During this time, Xu Lang has been observing this group of newcomers.
He noticed that Rong Chuan was comforting his students as he looked at John, his eyes showing sympathy.
Xu Lang secretly thought in his heart, this is a person with a pure mind, but a lot of brains.
Then he nodded towards Yan Yan, this person is very useful.
John hugged Cheng Guoguo here and cried bitterly, and the two complained to each other in a corner of the conference room.
Xu Lang listened to it, only to feel that his head was too big, and Cheng Guoguo was crying there with him, saying that he missed his father or something.
The situation here made the newcomers also collapse emotionally.
Knowing that he would never be able to go home again, and that he would have to face such a terrible evil spirit, one by one was originally fighting his spirit, but now under the leadership of Cheng Guoguo and John, they are all out of control.
The conference room was a mess for a while.
Xu Lang couldn't listen anymore, slammed the solid wood table, and stood up.
"Now it's not time for you to cry, you will report your former occupation one by one!"
Xu Lang's sudden ferocity shocked the newcomers for a while.
Coupled with Rong Chuan's appeasement, the order that should have been restored has been restored.
One by one, they introduced their own situations one after another.
It wasn't until after they finished speaking, Yan Yan, who had been silent and bowed his head in contemplation since entering the conference room, spoke.
"How did you get entangled with Kou Zhong's gang?"
......
At this time, upstairs, Wu Cheng's room was already full of people, Wu Cheng and Kou Zhong sat opposite each other, and the rest of them stood honestly in place.
"So, we won't be able to die for a while?"
Kou Zhong raised his eyebrows and asked.
Wu Cheng shrugged his shoulders and said: "I can't say it, you see that I am only left alone now, even my own brother died at the hands of evil spirits, how long you can live depends on yourself." ”
When Kou Zhong heard this, he smiled recklessly: "Yes, what a beautiful scenery the former second-in-command was, I didn't expect you to fall into this step." ”
Wu Cheng didn't get angry, and said lightly: "After a long time, you will know the horror of the mission, maybe the next mission, you will die." ”
Kou Zhong frowned, he and Wu Cheng belonged to the same gang before.
But they don't have a deep relationship, they have only met each other a few times, Kou Zhong is more like a hardliner flag in the gang, and he Wu Cheng is the shadow of the gang to deter the enemy.
The division of labor is different, but the ability is also excellent.
Especially the brothers under him, they all fight fiercely, and they are very disciplined, it can be said that as long as Kou Zhong says a word, let them die.
Kou Zhong has an unruly personality, which is different from Wu Chengtao's obscure personality.
But he also understood the reason, he thought about it and said, "Then we will continue to cooperate in the newspaper?" ”
Wu Cheng smoked a cigarette, smiled, and then nodded.
