Chapter 353: W City
The monster has been removed, but the flames on her body have not been extinguished. Zhu Liu and I can't delay here any longer.
The monster fell to the ground, the fire was still burning on her body, she fell to the door, the flames had burned to the side of the door, it seemed that she couldn't get out of here, Zhu Liu was already panicked, was shot by the smoke, helplessly hid behind me and coughed, I covered my mouth and nose, tried to open my eyes as wide as possible, looked around the room, only to see that there was still a corner of the room, there was a small window, the window was open, and the fire had not spread here, I was happy in my heart, and quickly grabbed Zhu Liu and ran to the window, Zhu Liu was staggered by me, and his brain was also choked, so he could only follow me instinctively.
I looked under the window, I had a look in my heart, I groaned, I didn't have time to explain, I pushed Zhu Liu and ran up to the window, she didn't react, she climbed up and looked back at me: "What should I do now." "Jump." I looked at the fire that was gradually spreading and said dryly.
Zhu Liu glanced down, his eyes narrowed, his hands tightly grasped the frame of the window, and he kept shaking his head: "No, no, I'm afraid." Without the slightest hesitation, I directly stretched out my hand, pushed her down, and then climbed to the window as fast as I could, and jumped down with it, without a trace of procrastination in the whole process.
Zhu Liu was pressed under me, with a look of lovelessness, he pushed me with his palm, and said weakly: "You get up from me." "I lay on the ground and looked at the sky, no wonder I felt so soft underneath. I quickly got up, pulled Zhu Liu up, looked at her tired face, and smiled: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm pressing on you." ”
Zhu Liu glanced at me with a clear expression: "You did it on purpose." I giggled and thought to myself, who asked me to make you jump, you didn't jump, it wasn't me who pushed you, and now we are all in the fire.
Thinking of the thrilling scene just now, I looked up at the fire that had spread to the window, and now it was spitting flames outside, the scene was very spectacular, Zhu Liu also looked at me and sighed: "We are safe now, right?" I smirked, "Of course." After standing quietly for a while, Zhu Liu suddenly spoke: "Liu Wuying, do you feel as if we have forgotten something." Listening to her reminder, I scratched my head and nodded, "It seems that something is indeed missing." I turned my head to look at Zhu Liu, who also had a contemplative expression. Suddenly, my mind was shocked, and Zhu Liu blurted out: "The bearded ones are still inside." I looked at the fire that burned down the whole room, and patted my head with regret, how could I forget the beard, so I rushed upstairs with Zhu Liu.
Fortunately, the fire only burned to my room with Zhu Liu, and it had not spread to the bearded room, and when Zhu Liu and I dragged the bearded and Xiaobai out of the room, we were already tired and sweating. The bearded ones haven't woken up under such a big fire, which shows the strength of the demon fox.
Throwing the bearded them downstairs, in order not to attract other people, and not to want the fire to spread to the surrounding houses, accidentally injuring others, Zhu Liu and I rushed upstairs to put out the fire, and worked hard for most of the day, and finally extinguished the fire, but the upstairs of this hotel was also half burned, and when I walked down from the hotel with a disgraced face, I found that the bearded man seemed to have just woken up.
The bearded man sat up, looked at me and Zhu Liu blankly, pointed to the black ash on our faces, and asked, "How did you do this?" What's going on? I was so tired that I didn't have the strength to speak, but Zhu Liu exploded as soon as she saw the beard, she rushed to the front of the bearded man, and Xingshi asked: "Did you drink the white fungus soup that the demon fox gave you?" The bearded man was stunned, and then embarrassedly admitted: "I drank it." Zhu Liu stared at him with a look of hatred for iron and steel, and stared at the beard to find a crack in the ground to get into, and Zhu Liu slowly said: "A few of them don't know, don't you know, they actually dare to drink the things given by the demon fox, are you dead." ”
The bearded man woke up and understood that he had been drugged, he smiled awkwardly, but still wanted to justify himself, he was embarrassed to explain: "Before the demon fox gave it to us, I drank it myself, and I saw that she drank it, thinking that there was no problem." ”
Xiao Bai and Song Song listened to their conversation in confusion next to them, and turned to me for help, Xiao Bai frowned and looked at me: "Sister Liu, what happened?" Why did the proprietress hurt us? I saw that several of them had woken up, and now that it was already dawn, there was no reason to stay here any longer, so I walked directly to the door: "Let's go, get in the car first, and I'll explain to you slowly in the car." ”
After explaining the ins and outs of the matter to them, Xiaobai gasped and sighed: "Sister Liu, are you saying that this proprietress is pretending to be a demon fox, and the real proprietress has been killed." ”
I looked ahead, sighed, and said helplessly: "Yes, it's all because I was careless and didn't protect her, and I lost her life in vain." Zhu Liu comforted me: "It's not your fault, it's that the demon fox is too cunning to think of such a way to lose his conscience." The bearded man interjected: "No wonder no one can restrain her, she can completely kill a person and change her skin, and then live in a different identity." ”
Listening closely to their discussion, I suddenly thought of something, and I asked, "The demon fox can only skin other people's skins and survive as others, so how did she lose her own skin?" Zhu Liu's eyes darkened, and when he looked back at me, everyone was also stopped by my question and fell into deep thought.
The demon fox is dead, and there is no one to answer this question for us, what has happened to the monster, only those who have experienced it will know, and this should not be a problem for us to consider.
The car was driving towards the outside of the town, and the demon fox was solved, and I now felt that there was no goal and no direction, Zhu Liu stretched his waist and sighed: "I'm so sleepy." "Where are we going now?" The bearded man asked.
"Go to W City. You've forgotten that you still have a mission. This is the first time in so many days that the little demon has spoken, "The director knows that we are delayed here, and said that as soon as the matter here is resolved, he will immediately go on the road and set off for W City." ”
The little demon suddenly mentioned this, I haven't reacted yet, what's the director? What task? I thought about it for a while, and then I remembered that I was the one who signed the contract, and now I had to obey the instructions of the woman in red.
But I have a little doubt, looking at the little demon who is serious about explaining the task, I wonder, hasn't he been with us all the time? How did he get in touch with the director?
Seeing the confusion on my face, Song Song took the initiative to explain: "The little demon has always been responsible for contacting the director. As for the specific way they contacted the director's task, I don't know, it may be similar to telepathy. ”
Zhu Liu listened to her words, his eyes widened in surprise, and he sighed: "No, there is still this kind of operation." After Song Song finished explaining, he returned to a state of indifference, Zhu Liu talked alone for a long time, Song Song nodded, and finally, Zhu Liu decisively chose to remain silent.
While talking about the navigation setting to W City, I asked the little demon: "The director told you, what is the mission after we arrive in W City?" The little demon puffed up his face and thought for a while, then shook his head and said to me: "I didn't say it, but she said that after we arrived in W City, we would contact the client directly, and the client would arrange everything, and when the time came, we would naturally know the task." ”
"I see." I'm relieved, I just hope that the task isn't too difficult, and I finally escaped from the clutches of the demon fox, I don't want to encounter any more danger, I also want to ask how to contact the client, but I think that since the little demon said so, he must have his contact information.
After thinking about this, I concentrated on driving, hoping to arrive in W City as soon as possible and solve all the problems quickly. Zhu Liu was quiet for a while, but she still couldn't hold her breath, she saw that Song Song ignored her, and began to pull Xiaobai to start talking, Xiaobai is also an idle person, and Zhu Liu hit it off, chatting excitedly, talking about everything.
While driving the car, I listened casually, and suddenly heard Xiaobai say something, I stopped the car suddenly, stiffened and looked back at him, and asked, "What did you just say?" ”
"Huh?" Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, blinked, and said tentatively, "Wait a minute, you must have a big meal when you arrive in W City?" I frowned and immediately shook my head: "It's not this sentence, it's the previous sentence, you say it again." My tone suddenly became serious, and Xiaobai looked at me blankly, and suddenly panicked.
The bearded man noticed that the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and he asked cautiously, "What's wrong?" What happened? ”
I didn't pay attention to him, I still stared at Xiaobai and guided him: "Say what you just said to Zhu Liu, it was the sentence before 'I'm going to W City for a big meal'." Xiaobai looked at me inexplicably, opened his mouth, and said the sentence: "A few days ago, a mysterious person came to the antique street to find the director. ”
