Chapter 5: Inferno

In the 1950s, there were naturally no smart maps, but now the arrow on this waste paper is like a 'smart map', following the pace of Konstantin, constantly changing directions.

Fortunately, Konstantin was also a man who had seen the world, and he was not too surprised, so he followed the instructions of the arrow.

Immediately, he was really surprised.

Because before he stepped out of this street, a small two-story building with the words "Hospital" appeared in front of him, and his forehead ...... Yes, he's in place.

"Damn, didn't that bastard say that he's been looking for me for a long time, and the relationship is less than 200 fucking meters away." John muttered angrily, put the waste paper in his pocket, and walked to the hospital.

Abrupt......

"Hey! Hi! A voice of impatience came.

John subconsciously looked to the side, and then couldn't help but be stunned, because, right next to this door, there was a small window, which looked like a guard's room.

Of course, what stunned John was not because such a small broken hospital had such a painful design as a guard room, but because of the person in the guard room.

Let's put it this way, the ugliest thing John has ever seen is the 'Freak Demon', which is a disgusting thing in hell that is randomly put together with some stump and broken arm, because it is put together at random, so that thing often has three hands, eight feet, and a head on the crotch.

However, after seeing this doorman, the deformed demon had to take a back seat.

Because this guy looks ...... Anyway, if John hadn't been lucky enough to see that guy's eyes first, maybe he would have taken the other person's head as a meatball with a top hat.

Well, while John knew it was rude to say that about a burn patient, it was a bit of a surprise that this guy burned a lot.

What surprised John even more was that this guy not only did not have the inferiority complex of the usual disabled person, but spoke in a thief tone.

"What are you going to do?" The man asked.

John pondered for a moment and pointed to the door in front of him, "I...... I'm going to go in. ”

"Are you sick?" The man said again.

It sounds like a mockery, but ...... After all, this is the entrance of the hospital, so the meaning of this sentence is an ordinary question sentence.

John relented: "I ...... Not sick. ”

"Why are you here if you're not sick?" The doorman said unrelentingly.

"I'm looking for someone...... A doctor named Ziliang. ”

"Look for Ziliang." The doorman said, "$5." ”

"Huh?" This time, John finally couldn't hold back: "What kind of rule is this, you still charge tickets for entering the hospital?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, you only charge you $5 for that bastard of Ziliang, and if you find Nurse Quinn, I'll charge you 20."

John had never seen such a hospital in his life, let alone such a tough janitor, but when he thought of the look on his midnight father's speech at that time, John gritted his teeth helplessly and took out five dollars.

"Let's go in......" The doorman waved his hand after collecting the money, signaling that it was okay to pass.

Konstantin clearly saw that the doorman had written the word +5 on a slip of paper in front of him, and at the end of the paper, it read "External stereo, total price of $355].

......

In this way, John finally entered the hospital, pushed open the door, and inside was a straight corridor, and at the end was a "7" shaped corner, where he could see a room that said "Psychological Counseling Room".

And at this moment, in that room, a man wearing a chef's apron is walking out...... Well...... There is a cook out of the psychological counseling room, which seems quite normal, but what is a little abnormal is that the cook is still dragging a corpse in his hand......

When the man saw John come in, he looked at him and gave him a courtesy smile: "Welcome......" he said, and then seemed to think that he was still dragging a corpse: "Oh, don't be afraid, it's just ...... A patient who has just been hypnotized, he has been unable to sleep lately, and I am just helping him. ”

The man said, and then quickly dragged the body and disappeared around the corner.

But John didn't believe it, because there was still a long trail of blood where the man had dragged it...... Hey, wait? Why is the blood gone? Damn, this floor is sucking blood.

John repeatedly told himself that Lao Tzu was a man who had seen the world, so he exhaled heavily and continued to walk.

Soon, he saw the words [Doctor's Office] next to the corridor, presumably, Ziliang was inside.

He was about to knock on the door.

"Ahahahaβ€”β€”β€”β€”" A heart-wrenching voice came from the [Nurse's Office] behind him, and John could hear it, it was a woman's voice: "My dear little sweetheartsβ€”bang!" Bang! Bang! Immediately after, there was another flurry of gunfire.

John swallowed his saliva, still the same sentence, Lao Tzu is a person who has seen the world.

As soon as he thought of this, a 'reptile' with a brain exposed, a large tongue half a meter long, and no skin on his body, swished over the top of his head.

Yes, it was from the ceiling, and John concluded that if he grew into something like that, he would have climbed out of hell.

John finally couldn't take it anymore, and he began to clatter the door.

"Bastard, open the door, what the fuck is this!"

Before he could knock a few times, the door squeaked.

And behind the door, it was not Ziliang, but a guy in a suit, with a round face, with a little cute attributes, this guy stared at John with half-empty eyes, although John could feel that this guy had no magic ability at all, but let him stare at it like this, he was uncomfortable.

"I ......," John was about to speak.

"Ziliang, right, it's inside." The man said lightly, and then walked past John and left.

John walked into the office with a frown......

Then, he saw Ziliang Zheng's bitter and hateful expression, in front of him, there was a chessboard, it seemed that he was playing chess with the man who walked out just now, and the result, it seemed that Ziliang lost, because he was still covering his head and muttering: "I should be a general!" Why didn't I go to the general first? ”

John didn't care about anything else, he sat down opposite Ziliang angrily.

"Bastard...... What a place is this. He roared.

Ziliang raised his head: "Oh, you're here, this is my hospital." ”

"Fart." John roared, "How can a hospital have demons crawling on the ceiling? ”

"Demons?" Ziliang was stunned: "Oh, that's not a demon, it's a simple and lovely scientific product, you can call them 'lickers'." ”

"Lickers?" John looked disgusted and said, "Well, whatever he is, anyway..... Well...... It may be a bit embarrassing to say, but ...... You said you could help me, right? ”

"Yes, I'm always a man of words." Ziliang said.

Ziliang's words were like a tasteless fart in John's ears, but there was no way, he still nodded: "Okay, then I'll join...... Let's talk about it first, it's only temporary. ”

"Of course, I'm a reasonable person and never force employees, you see, all of my people here are attracted by the benefits to stay, and I think after a while, you will love this hospital as much as they do." Ziliang said with a smile.

Of course, this is another fart for John.

"So...... Since I'm here, shouldn't we hurry up and talk about what happened to my cancer? ”

"Of course......" Ziliang said, "You also know that you got cancer a long time ago, and the reason why you have survived until now is entirely because some people have taken the cancer away...... However, at the end of the day, the 'take the cancer' is a kind of magic blessing, and when that person doesn't want to maintain it, then the cancer will naturally return to your body immediately. ”

"But...... It shouldn't be possible...... "John said.

"Oh, I know, you played the three demon kings of hell before...... Right. Ziliang took over John's words: "This matter is not a secret in the circle, of course, this notebook of mine has a very powerful information search function, so I know more details than those rumors, I know how fucked up the contract of 'one soul sells more', and I also know that it almost makes you die forever." But...... If hell really goes to war, hell is unified, and there is only one demon king left, then your contract will eventually be reduced to a piece of waste paper. ”

John shook his head: "That's why I said it couldn't be, because it was impossible for those three guys to go to war, and if that was the case, there must be no good fruit for all three of them to eat, and they weren't stupid." ”

"I know that under normal circumstances, they really don't go to war, because the number 'three' is a balance that no one wants to break...... But what if it's not balanced......"

As he spoke, Ziliang took out a newspaper from under his desk and threw it to John.

"You've been getting drunk every day these days, so you may not have noticed that something big is happening in France."

John picked up the newspaper and saw that the headline was written in the largest font......

[The Louvre was stolen, ancient documents were stolen]

Such words.

John instinctively realized something: "The thief...... What is it? ”

"A book, the group of people who eat white rice in the Louvre didn't find out what the book was, they only knew that it was a relic of the Crusader Jihad, so it was put in the museum to fill it up...... But, I know what that thing is. Ziliang's expression was slightly serious: "That was the first draft of "Hell". ”

"Huh?" John was stunned: "Hell...... Is it Dante's "Inferno"? Hehe, don't make a fuss, the original version of "The Divine Comedy" has long been burned out, even if it is the first draft, what does it have to do with my cancer? ”

Ziliang replied unhurriedly: "Listen to me slowly, first of all, it is indeed the original manuscript, it is precisely because everyone thought that the "Divine Comedy" trilogy was all burned, so it can lie quietly in the museum for so many years, but recently, it seems that someone knows that the "Hell" chapter is still in this world, so ...... It was stolenβ€”β€”β€” and the most important thing is that although the stories written by Dante are all made up, there are some things that have some basis. For example, he recorded in "Hell" that whenever the sun and the moon meet, the soul of the demon king of hell will be suppressed most powerfully, in other words, at that time, Azazel's power is the weakest stage, if anyone wants to do something in hell...... At that time, it was undoubtedly the best choice. ”

When John heard this, his brows gradually tightened, because this demon king "Azazel" was one of the demon kings who signed a bloody treaty with him, and there was another one called "Beelzebub", and the last one, that is, the "First Fallen".

And when it comes to the strength of these three demon kings, the "First Fallen" must be the most powerful, because in a sense, Hell is single-handedly run by this guy, but he doesn't have the strength to kill the other two people at the same time, so Hell has always been divided by these three people.

And if it's really like what is written in the book. The power of "Azazel" will be weakened when the sun and moon meet, so it is likely that the 'First Fallen' will take the opportunity to take down the other two in one fell swoop.

"Huh." John smiled: "When the sun and the moon meet, isn't this kind of rhetoric really made up?" Those three guys in hell have been fighting for so many years, and they don't know each other's weaknesses, but a mortal who goes to hell for a few laps can know? ”

"What's the matter, you can sleep with the soul banshee, so don't you want people to drink with demons, and make some heartfelt words?" Ziliang responded.

"Hmmβ€”β€”β€”" At this time, John also nodded: "Makes sense." ”

As soon as the words fell, Ziliang threw over another newspaper.

John took it, only to see that the headline read.

[Gu Astronomical Bureau speculates that on the afternoon of March 8, the largest total solar eclipse in 90 years is coming]

"What time is it?" John asked.

"March 4th. If you pinch the head and remove the tail, you have three days at most. Ziliang replied lightly.

John let out a long sigh of relief, and he couldn't pretend not to believe it, "Well, so I do have to thank you, but the question is, how can you help me?" ”

"Hi, hi. Pay attention to your tone, I just said to help you, not to help you wipe your ass like your nanny, so, how to solve this matter, you have to pay attention, of course, the most important thing is that you owe me a personal favor afterwards. ”

These words made John feel uncomfortable, because they usually came out of his mouth.

"Well, if that's the case, I'm still ...... Well...... There are some friends, I have to go to them. John said.

"Of course, I've heard rumors that you always find a friend before you do something." Ziliang smiled: "Then, I'll wait for you here, when you can use me, you only need one sentence." ”

"Good!"

Konstantin said, then turned around and hurried out of Ziliang's office.

Meanwhile, in the [Library] around the corner.

Moriarty sat by the window, holding a book that looked very old at first glance.

On the cover, there was an Italian word.

Translated as β€”β€”β€” "Hell"
