Chapter 172: Provocation (I)

Xu Hao nodded, his head turned slightly, and after his eyes glanced around, he slowly asked, "What about them?" ”

"It's all still out there. I'll call them back right away," the young man finished speaking, his gaze stayed on Xu Hao's body for a short moment, and seeing that he didn't object, he naturally grabbed a mobile phone, pressed a few numbers, and whispered a few words to the screen, at the same time, his gaze seemed to wander inadvertently on Zhuo Xuan's body.

Or feeling the young man's gaze, Zhuo Xuan tilted his head slightly, and suddenly, the eye socket embedded in the strange thing suddenly swelled with pain.

Knock knock.

The sound of his heartbeat trembled in his mind like a drumbeat, and he stared at the young man in the waiter's suit, becoming more and more vigilant.

The young man smiled and nodded slightly, as if he didn't feel the inexplicable restlessness of the strange thing in Zhuo Xuan's right eye. Zhuo Xuan frowned tightly and glanced to the side, but the feeling of being watched always lingered in his body, making him inexplicably resistant.

"Alright, stop using trickery to spy on our new friends," Xu Hao walked over to the bar and sat down on one of the high chairs, "When they all come over, we'll discuss the mission and have a new member to join." ”

"Understood, Captain," the young man smiled slightly, the blue arc in his eyes flickering.

The feeling of being watched disappeared in an instant.

Zhuo Xuan's heart was slightly shocked, he vaguely realized that it was the effect of the trick, but he didn't expect that the conjecture was still a little deviated from the truth.

A ruse for probing?

I don't know if I can detect the existence of the beast.

Zhuo Xuan suddenly remembered a certain Chosen One he had met before, and the other party had a trick to connect to the Internet, and he also had the ability to probe. If this classification is followed, does the trickery of the Chosen also have a general network?

Regardless, at the moment, it doesn't seem like a conspiracy. No matter what Xu Hao was plotting to, coming into contact with these strange Chosen Ones would give people a feeling that they had found an organization.

Zhuo Xuan was thinking wildly, but there were some footsteps in the dark passage. The footsteps were quick and slow, heavy and light, accompanied by several overlapping and intermingling voices.

"Hurry up! Uncle Hao called us! ”

"What's the hurry, you won't die if you're one step late."

"Yes. Don't wait for me to touch up my makeup......"

……

Zhuo Xuan held his breath and looked in the direction where the voice came from, he was silent, but he was counting carefully in his heart, and there were a total of six figures in front and back.

These people appeared in the room, skillful in their movements, familiar with the road, and obviously the old team around Xu Hao. Each of them wore black watches on their hands, and the moment they saw Zhuo Xuan's unfamiliar face, they were more or less unnatural.

"It's ...... New friends? A young man with black-rimmed glasses raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Hao, who was hunched over and sitting near the bar.

"Yes, he's our new friend." Xu Hao stood up from his seat, he looked at the people in the room, the dim light emitted by the old-fashioned light bulb reflected the faces with different expressions, and suddenly frowned, "What about Zhu Zhantu?" ”

Wishing the exhibition picture?

Zhuo Xuan repeated the name in his heart.

"Zhu Zhantu?" A woman holding a small pink mirror raised her thin eyebrows slightly, and her thin lips closed one by one, "I didn't see him, probably died outside." ”

"Then lock the direction," the black-rimmed man who had spoken earlier continued, as if he was laughing weirdly, "when will we start acting?" ”

No, no......

What the hell is going on......

Why didn't you understand a word?

Zhuo Xuan's puzzled gaze swept over the bodies of these well-dressed Chosen One, and their almost identical clothes revealed their identities as waiters. A white shirt with a suit vest, a pair of black leather shoes under the straight black trousers, both men and women, unify the waiter dress that can be seen everywhere in the Emgrand KTV.

These guys are waiters in KTV on the surface, but in fact, they are all chosen ones who are cursed by the black, doing indefinite containment work.

Xu Hao is their boss, both openly and secretly, he is a leader.

Who is the "Zhu Zhantu" just now?

Perhaps seeing the confusion in the eyes of the silent Zhuo Xuan, Xu Hao hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said, "Let's stop for a moment." Let's explain the situation to our new friends first. ”

"Listen to the captain." The man with black-rimmed glasses pushed his glasses and immediately agreed.

The rest of the people remained silent from beginning to end, and when they heard this, they immediately nodded silently. The bewitched woman gave the man with white glasses and began to paint something on her delicate face in the mirror; The young man standing behind the bar picked up his goblet and continued to wipe it as he had just done.

It's all weirdos.

Zhuo Xuan suddenly recalled that rainy night outside the abandoned mental hospital in the southern suburbs, and the rain blurred his memory. The Chosen ones in white hazmat suits were equally silent, like mutes, hiding secrets about the Chosen and the Beast, mysterious and unpredictable.

"That's probably how it happened," Xu Hao sighed, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes, "The beast appeared, and then we received the task. The black watch reminded us of the approximate range of the beast, and we were all nervous. It didn't take long for the victim to appear in the toilet on the second floor of the KTV......"

in the toilet.

Zhuo Xuan's breath was suffocated, and he suddenly remembered the scene that had happened a few hours ago.

……

"What about Zhang Yujie? I didn't see him come back. ”

"Isn't he there?"

"He just said he was going to the toilet, and he didn't let us hold him, so he never came back."

"It's okay, you go first, he is probably drunk. I went to the bathroom to look for it, and when I found it, I sent him home. ”

……

Is it Zhang Yujie?

"It's one of your classmates, the identity and name haven't been determined yet," Xu Hao took a breath, and then slowly exhaled, his voice a little hoarse, "It's unlikely that the beast will attack people for no reason before the mission completely fails, most of them are targeted purposefully." So, while I told you to leave, each of our eleven Chosen ones chose some people who were more suspected of being victims to follow in secret. Now that one of us is dead, it's easy to determine who the beast's next target is. ”

What's the solution?

Put your own life on the Russian roulette wheel with someone else's life, shoot each of them, and you can only consider yourself unlucky if you are shot?

Shouldn't a cohesive team treat each other as companions?

Zhuo Xuan's eyes slowly revealed a disgusted emotion, which flashed away and was well concealed by him.

Xu Hao didn't notice Zhuo Xuan's abnormality, but continued: "Now it's obvious that the Chosen One named Zhu Zhantu is dead. In other words, the guy he tracked down was the next victim. Finding out the previous contact of his victim will allow you to find the location of the beast and thus contain it. ”

"Is this your way?" Zhuo Xuan suddenly opened his mouth to take over Xu Hao's words, and in an instant, a pair of eyes looked at him in unison, and his gaze was concentrated on him, which made him feel in a trance.

It was as if in an instant he had returned to that icy rainy night, and the slightest unnatural place was immediately seen by everyone, and they conceived with the most vicious thoughts how to kill him.

It's just that now everything is a little different.

The young man, who had been scared and didn't know anything, was completely dead, and now, standing in this dimly lit room, was a man who had gone through several missions. There are countless veterans who have struggled between life and death.

He understands that he has to believe in the courage that bursts from the bottom of his heart, and he has to believe in his partner.

Instead of feeding them a bullet from Russian roulette.

"What, listening to your tone, you have a lot of opinions?"

A voice with a strange tone sounded among them, and Zhuo Xuan looked in the direction from which the voice came, and naturally saw a man with a strong body.

The man combed his neat hair, square face, and bulging muscles supporting his shirt and waistcoat, showing an inexplicable sense of strength. Compared with such a person, Zhuo Xuan's body has no traces of exercise, and he loses a few points in momentum.

Fortunately, Zhuo Xuan was neither humble nor arrogant from beginning to end, and his voice was cold: "You misunderstood." I reserve my opinion. ”

"Oh, I'd love to hear what you've kept."

A cruel smile crossed his face, and he said unrelentingly.

Xu Hao frowned, but he didn't stop his provocation immediately, and several people next to him faced this turmoil with an attitude of watching the show, and they didn't care which of the two would succeed.

The woman still holding the vanity mirror turned her head, and the man standing behind the bar holding the goblet also raised his head slightly, their attention focused on the stout man and Zhuo Xuan, like spectators standing outside the ring, about to start cheering for the boxers in the ring.

Zhuo Xuan stared at the man in front of him without saying a word, until the other party's body was approaching step by step, and then he slowly gritted his teeth.

With a "sharpshooter".

The dagger was still cooling, and even then, it was sharp enough to slit the throat of the other party in an instant!

The man stopped abruptly.

The sound of a thumping heartbeat echoed in Zhuo Xuan's chest, and he was ready to grab the strange thing in his arms, but he didn't expect the other party to suddenly stop moving.

"I'm scared of you, ha," the mocking smile on the man's face grew, and he glanced at the gloomy young man in front of him with contemptuous eyes, and when he saw that the other party was still indifferent, he couldn't help but scold softly: "Cowardice." ”

Cowardice.

His voice was small, but it reached the ears of everyone present.

Except for Xu Hao, almost everyone's eyes changed in an instant. It was a mockery of Zhuo Xuan, and it was a question of Xu Hao's decision.

Perhaps, such a "new member" is only worthy of being cannon fodder like the dead Zhu Zhantu.

So.

Scold!!

The clear voice was accompanied by hurried footsteps, and the moment the strong man turned around, Zhuo Xuan's body shot out like a cannonball!
