Chapter 296: Cards
One Night...... A farce
The café was open as usual, the fat houses were coming, and everything was business as usual, no one knew what was going on in a factory on the outskirts of town, no one knew how the thug and Bill the Killer were getting along with the rats.
Of course, no one cares.
Everyone follows their own life, and other people's joys, sorrows, and sorrows can only be a movie after all, getting rich, falling out of love, war, injury, birth, old age, sickness and death, glory and wealth, all emotions can only be momentary emotions in the eyes of another person, and after a blink of an eye, they will quickly turn into drunken talk and lose all meaning. Even people who have experienced it themselves, like Boss Xiaoyu, after returning to normal life, will involuntarily summarize those painful experiences as an unreal dream, and only when they go to bed will some sighs sprout.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, if it weren't for the help of his two clerks and Chen Xiao, maybe he would have turned into a broken corpse and sunk into the sea like other prey, so it doesn't matter if you say that he was blinded by the two-dimensional world, or that he has no heart or lungs, anyway, he doesn't seem to think that this matter is so difficult to accept. Isn't it just kidnapped by a murderer?,Compared to Lori walking around in the mirror.,Compared to those hammers and axes that appear out of thin air.,Compared to the "S.H.I.E.L.D. agent" who ate diabetes sooner or later, a murderer is simply too normal.
It's like a story, and everyone has their own needs to do.
For example, that little gangster, he is destined to die in his own unwillingness and anger.
For example, Boss Xiaoyu, he is destined to gradually recognize the world and write a strong stroke in the final battle.
Another example is the couple who walked into the coffee shop a few days ago, they are destined to drink coffee, chat, and open an answer that I don't know how long it will take.
......
Then, the time came to the first two days before Chen Xiao got the black card drawn.
At a table by the window, a man and a woman sit......
"So, you're still doing all that boring stuff?"
The bespectacled man rests his cheek in one hand and taps his fingers slowly and rhythmically across his temples.
The woman sitting opposite him was wearing a beige trench coat, and her long hair was naturally curled, revealing that this was completely inconsistent with her age's youthful atmosphere, and it was hard to imagine that less than half a month ago, her "husband" had just stumbled and fallen off the balcony and was pierced by the fence on the first floor.
"How do you say that? I haven't seen each other for so long, and I thought you finally had a good impression of me......" She said with some complaint, her eyes and smile revealing a very inconspicuous, but incomparably intoxicating intellectual charm. However, the man with glasses naturally knows that this charm is like an invisible poisonous vine, as long as someone steps a little, it will be entangled, round and round, gentle, sweet, until it is pulled into the bottomless abyss.
"Favorable? Don't make a fuss, I don't want to be one of your dolls. He sighed a little helplessly: "I heard that you changed your identity some time ago?" What is it...... Whatever, another unlucky ghost has suffered anyway. ”
"Oh, you say he's a pretty nice guy." The woman smiled faintly, as if she was recalling something incomparably wonderful: "It's just that he's a little suspicious, otherwise we can play for a few more months." Oh, by the way, now I'm a returnee Ph.D. in economics, how about it, isn't it a good fit? ”
The man rubbed his temples. He really couldn't stand the woman sitting across from him, because she had an extremely nasty hobby.
I just like to watch people look for death.
This hobby sounds a little inexplicable, but that's what she is.
Each time she chooses some so-called "fun toy", then she comes into contact with him or her, and quickly integrates into their lives, after which she will design countless "ways to die" for them...... These deaths are in the life of toys, and she watches them hovering on the edge of the trap she has planted, excitedly expecting them to fall into some abyss, which is as exciting to her as a fan looking forward to a World Cup goal.
Of course,She will also change her identity every time.,She can be a childhood sweetheart who is close to the "toy",Or a weak girl who was rescued from the hands of the wicked.,Even a daughter.,Even a mother.,In short,She can be anyone.,Incarnate tens of millions.,And after playing, she retreated.,At the same time, by the way, all the connections between herself and the "toy" were cleaned up.
These things that seem impossible to ordinary people are simply easy for her.
She also enjoys it.
That's why the man with glasses hates her. But what can be done, among these seven people, there is no normal guy besides himself. (Actually, that's what everyone else thinks...... )
"But to be honest, I'm a little tired of these people, so don't you think about it anymore? I promise, I'll be gentle with you...... Very gentle. ”
She smiled slightly and said that there was no special movement, but the man with glasses was in a trance in his heart.
This demonic woman knows how to tear open a person's heart......
"Then why don't you go play with him?" The man with glasses muttered unhappily.
"You say Chen Xiao?" The woman responded: "Playing with him is the most boring, he doesn't play his cards according to common sense at all, whether it was before or now." ”
After hearing this, the man with glasses nodded as if it made sense.
"Okay, let's get down to business, everyone knows it's no coincidence that your toys live on the same block as him, so do you think it's the right time?"
"Cut, you men are like this, and it's annoying to even catch up when something happens." The woman was a little resentful: "Well, I did meet with him the other day, and his memory shows no sign of recovering at all. ”
The man in glasses frowned, and his fingers began to tap on the legs of his glasses again: "According to his plan, within a year after his memory is sealed, he should be able to break free." ”
"His plans will always be derailed by his own play, it's his nature, even if he has amnesia, so let's follow our process...... Now that he's noticed the old man who eats memories, he's definitely going to trouble the 'Pacific Division'. To prevent him from playing himself to death......"
As she spoke, the woman pulled out a black card with what looked like a crow and handed it to the other party.
"Help him......"
