Chapter 199: Chips
So you and Su Zi, how many companions do you have? ”
That's an interesting question.
Su Zi must be here, nothing wrong, but this girl seems to be in trouble.
"It's just the two of us. I'm going to find her now, will you help me? I asked.
The big man smiled, and the two people around him parted from me, and then put a hand on me, hooking up with my shoulder. His hands are very heavy and have a lot of strength, this kind of simple hand strength should be one of the best among the people I have seen, and it seems that his combat strength should be good.
"No problem, of course no problem, we are not enemies. If you want to see Su Zi, I can take you to meet her. Just saying that, his hand on my shoulder began to gradually fall, "But before that, we have to search you, you know that Su Zi is now staying in a very safe place, but it is very confidential to us, and the search is necessary." ”
"Hahaha...... I smiled and spread my arms, "search it." ”
I took the initiative to search, but this man's expression was not as good-looking as before.
He checked for a long time, his expression became more and more disappointed, and he looked at me, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, just sneered at me: "You'll see her soon." ”
"Thank you."
Then I was taken to the basement of the bar, through the long, dark, damp tunnel, which was a dark bustle, a speakeasy, much more lively and smelly than the one above. There are about twenty to thirty people here, and each one of them has that smell on their bodies, and they are all the source!
I really want to ask the strong men around me, what kind of monsters are you?
But it seems that it is not very appropriate to ask this question now. It's just that at least one more thing I know is that there must be some kind of relationship between these monsters and insects.
But what exactly is the relationship?
And that's when something happened that surprised me.
It wasn't so unexpected, but the other iron door of the speakeasy opened, and there was a tunnel leading to me, and two skinny men in dark clothes carried a body past me, which was the female monster I had killed before.
When the corpse bearer saw the strong man, he immediately stopped, his expression distorted, "Brother Hei, I found it in the back alley, my neck was torn off, and my technique was clean and neat!" It's not easy to start! ”
The strong man looked at me and asked the corpse bearer, "Dead?" ”
"That's not true, but this kind of injury, for us, we have to recover for a few days."
"It's okay not to die."
After speaking, he waved his hand and motioned for the two to leave, and then turned his gaze to me again, "Heh, it's really a friend, my subordinates are merciful, thank you." But I don't understand, how did you twist her head off cleanly? ”
He stared at me, his eyes faintly yellow.
At the moment, however, I simply can't answer his question.
This is so strange to Bai, it is obviously a corpse with a severed head, why is it said that it is not dead? Is it when I'm bluffing me? It doesn't seem to be that necessary. She's really not dead? Perhaps, after all, I've seen a lot of immortal things.
But if she really doesn't die, then everyone here is the same?
If so, I'm afraid I'm in trouble today.
"Looks like you don't want to answer? You're such an interesting person. Sure enough, Su Zi is not simple, he is not a simple thief. He smiled, as if he didn't mean to continue the topic, and continued to lead the way for me.
Thieves.
Su Zi told me that her father had stolen something from her stepmother.
The story she told, the part that I felt was real, was now in my mind, and I vaguely guessed something......
When she saw Su Zi, she was in a daze in a separate private room, and the moment she raised her head when she heard the sound of the door opening, her eyes were full of surprise, it was obvious that it was me, and that surprise disappeared, replaced by doubt, "You...... You? Why are you here? You're really lying to me? ”
"What are you? What did I lie to you? You came first, and you didn't wait for me! I stepped forward and came to Su Zi's side, the landlord of her waist, took the opportunity to approach her and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense." ”
She was stunned, but she was also a smart person, and although she had doubts, she did not continue to ask questions.
The strong man came to the other side of the sofa at this time, grabbed a bottle of wine on the table, directly bit the bottle with his teeth, drank a few big sips, put down the wine bottle and looked at Su Zi, "Why didn't you say it before, you still have a companion?" ”
"I ...... I actually ......" she panicked.
I hugged her tightly and responded on her behalf: "I wanted to keep a hand before, but if I think about it, it doesn't seem necessary, so I showed up to show my sincerity." Don't get angry. ”
"Hehe, how can you get angry, collect money to do things, customers trust us or not, and it will not delay our interests."
Su Zi wrote to me with her eyes, and I could see that she was very confused, and I couldn't explain it to her at the moment.
"That...... When, when can you tell me where the Eternal Life Pavilion is? I've been waiting for this for a long time. Su Zi asked at this time.
As I thought, she did come here for the Eternal Life Pavilion, but maybe she didn't trust these people herself, so after encountering me, she chose to follow me silently.
"Don't worry, it's already here, do you care about waiting a few more minutes? Wait, news will arrive soon. After saying that, the man continued to drink, and at the same time motioned to me, "Brother, you can also be at ease, and we can also do business if we need anything in the future." ”
I picked up a bottle of wine and said, "Okay, looking forward to working together." ”
After a bottle of wine, I sighed, smiled more unrestrainedly, hugged Su Zi's hand tighter, and touched some places that should not be touched. Su Zi noticed the abnormality, and her eyes were flustered, "You...... What are you doing?!! ”
I rolled over and held her down, and whispered in her ear before she could scream in a panic, "You'd better cooperate, I'm helping you." ”
"Go away!" But she didn't seem to listen to this sentence, and tried to resist more fiercely.
So, I had to change the way, and at the position with my back to the strong man, I spit out a tentacle and wrapped it around Su Zi's neck, "If you move again, I will kill you immediately." ”
She was terrified, but she was also obedient and honest.
"Oh, that's how you guys...... Sorry, I seem to be a little redundant here, it just so happens that you still have to wait for a while, it's boring, it's not bad to do some exercise, you go on, go on, haha......" The man took the bottle and left the room with a smile.
I separated from Su Zi at this time, and withdrew the tentacles, "I'm sorry. ”
She trembled and didn't dare to look at me, "Who are you, what are you going to do, I ...... I know you're a monster, a monster like them, but I won't say it...... I beg you to spare me......"
"You're thinking too much. I'm just trying to get the guy out of this period of time, because there's something I have to say to you, but I can't let him hear it. ”
Su Zi raised his head, his eyes were still fearful, but he also had doubts.
"We'll have to find a way to get out of here, and after a while, I'm afraid it won't be easy." I glanced at the closed door.
"You, what are you talking about?"
"I said the man was lying to you."
"Lie to me?"
"You probably don't understand this explanation, so let's put it another way. Tell me why you're here, and listening to your conversation just now, it's clear that you're here for the clues of the Eternal Life Pavilion. But this isn't the first time you've been in touch, right? It's not the first day, you've been in touch for a long time, and it's not the first time you've been in contact with it, as you can see from the smell of you. ”
Speaking of this, Su Zi was puzzled and sniffed herself, "I, what do I smell like?" ”
"You can't smell it." As I spoke, I glanced around the humble private room, "This place has something to do with the Eternal Life Pavilion, am I right?" But what the specific relationship is, it is not possible to guess. You said before that your father stole something from your stepmother, and if your stepmother's information is known to the Eternal Life Museum, then the trouble your stepmother has caused you will be solved. So is it okay to think like this, the thing that your father stole is a very important thing that your stepmother took away from the Eternal Life Pavilion, and the stepmother is wanted because of this, and now the stepmother's clues can save your life, but the Eternal Life Pavilion may not know that your father and you stole that kind of thing. ”
When I said this, Su Zi's expression froze, "Why do you know?" No...... You, what you said is not true, what your father stole has nothing to do with the Eternal Life Pavilion, and the stepmother, the stepmother is indeed wanted by the Eternal Life Pavilion, so ......"
"Listen to me. Your stepmother is indeed wanted by the Eternal Life Pavilion, probably fake her death or something, right? I guess, and you can go and tell the Eternal Life Pavilion that she still exists. But the people here may not really help you pass on the message of the Eternal Life Hall. Like I just said, it's been so long, why do you have to wait for the news you want now? Those monsters outside just now, the only one who knows you is the strong man, since this is related to the Eternal Life Pavilion, and it seems that the Eternal Life Pavilion is a very powerful existence, then the people who are hunted down by the Eternal Life Pavilion should be highlighted, right? How is it that only one person knows that you are here for this? To sum up, the answer is that he is deliberate, he deliberately conceals the message of his companion about you and the message you are about to deliver. And why hide it, because the benefits are two-way, maybe it's a good thing to help the Eternal Life Pavilion catch your stepmother, but your stepmother also has lucrative conditions. The point is, what did she bring out of the Eternal Life Pavilion? What did your father steal again? That kind of thing, so the value it represents, should be more tempting than helping the Eternal Life Pavilion catch someone. ”
Su Zi's hands trembled, and she looked at me with fear: "You, what do you mean by saying so much......"
"Yes, what I mean is that you seem to have come to the Eternal Life Pavilion to report the news, but the person who gave you the information about the Eternal Life Pavilion has already been bribed by your stepmother. I think your stepmother will show up soon, and that's probably when you're dead. ”
Su Zi shook her head, "It's impossible, I'm in contact with them, it's not a day or two, they all know my whereabouts, my stepmother wants to kill me, why are you at the foot of the Eternal Life Pavilion?" The monsters outside this bar were all created by the Eternal Life Pavilion, is she crazy, don't do it earlier, and kill me at the feet of the Eternal Life Pavilion that is chasing her? ”
"Huh......" I sighed, "I said, it's all about value. Your life or death is actually worthless, and your stepmother doesn't hate you to the core, she wants you to die. She didn't do anything to you all the way, she just wanted to get a clue from you about that thing, the kind of thing your father took. That thing is too tempting for her, so she doesn't do it for a long time, she always feels that you will show flaws, but you have come to the foot of the Eternal Life Pavilion, she has no choice but to kill you before you find the Eternal Life Pavilion and tell her clues. ”
Su Zi's expression was completely devastated, but he immediately looked up at me again, his eyes were surprised: "You...... Who exactly is it? Why do you know so much? ”
I responded, "I guessed, and I happened to be right." However, there is one thing that cannot be guessed. ”
"What's the matter?" Su Zi asked.
So, I asked the crux of the question: "What exactly did your father steal?" ”
