Chapter 40: Strange Tales

The girl lies on her back among the blue and white hyacinth flowers and watches the black birds line up and fly towards the huge moon in the sky.

Breaking off a plain white flower branch and cherishing it in her arms, the girl lowered her head and made a sniffing motion.

There is no fragrance. This is natural, she has only seen this kind of flower from video materials, no matter how to restore the color, shape, and posture of the flower, she can't imagine the fragrance it should have.

Maybe it smells as bad as medicine.

The girl giggled suddenly, and tossed the flower into the sky.

The stars embedded in the night sky finally began to fall towards the ground, turning into shining scratches, and the girl reached out to the sky and whispered, "...... That's great. โ€

She was answered by a bowl of warm water poured over her face.

"If you don't get up again, I'm going to splash a bowl of cold water." Before the girl opened her eyes, she could clearly hear the strange laughter of the people around her, "Or do you want a bowl of boiling water?" โ€

"I don't want it." The girl slowly sat up from the narrow bed, "My body can't withstand any toss." โ€

"So you know." Luo Ziyang threw the wrung half-dried towel in her face, "It's just dealing with a little fart, what are you doing so seriously." โ€

"Dealing with believers should be more serious......" the girl slowly wiped the water from her face, "isn't that what you said?" โ€

"I advise you not to rub your tongue with me, I don't think as much of you as those old things."

"I'll turn nineteen next month." The girl's tone was flat, "I guess you'll be able to make a replacement for me soon, that's good." โ€

"It's good, you don't have a few months to live." Luo Ziyang was also very calm, "But if you can be obedient, maybe I will say a few kind words for you to make your death more comfortable." โ€

"I've always been obedient. Flash."

"Then let me ask you again, the dream you entered last time, didn't you see more information about the owner of the dream?"

"That young second group leader, no." The girl's face was so white that there was no trace of blood, "With my ability, at most I can only lead the storyline in the direction I want in other people's dreams...... What you care about, he didn't even think about in his dreams. โ€

"It was you who could get something out of his dreams that made me promise to put back the little kid who was following me...... So what exactly do you mean? Conscience found? โ€

"As I said, since it's a character that you all find tricky, I can only promise to give it a try." The girl narrowed her eyes and smiled, like a fox that often appears in strange stories, "As for that little friend...... It's just that I, a dying man, want to have fun. โ€

"Yes...... Forget it, since you want to waste more time outside of work, I'm very happy in my heart. Luo Ziyang looked down at her and said slowly, "The elders of your sect all say that you have been the most disobedient for three generations. โ€

"With your current status as a 'priest', you should say 'our sect'." The girl tilted her head, her eyes unafraid, "I can let outsiders like you be priests, they are also the most useless elders." โ€

"You just work hard for a few more days, and then do things for your food and clothing parents." Luo Ziyang lifted the curtain and glanced back at her, "Speaking of which, it seems that the leader of the second group has also been bouncing on our territory these days...... You should be able to sense everyone who has drunk your blood, right? โ€

"Maybe it's because I'm dying, so I'm not very good." The girl threw the towel out with all her might, gasping for breath, "Or maybe you've used my power to influence too many people on the boat...... You know, as soon as I close my eyes, I feel like a lot of people are dancing in my head. โ€

"Isn't that quite hilarious?" Luo Ziyang picked up the towel on the ground with two fingers and shook it twice as if it was dirty.

"The Mr. Quanlin who was on your head last time meant that I wanted to capture the team leader alive as much as possible. Flash." The girl's weak voice came from behind, "If you let Mr. Zong go this time, isn't it equivalent to killing him?" โ€

"What, you can't bear it?" Luo Ziyang said word by word, "Look down and see what you are." โ€

-

"Young people in their twenties?" Lao Cai touched his chin, "We are only in our twenties here, my nephew, who is following me to help, and he is going out to buy breakfast at this time." โ€

"Anyone else isn't here?" The policeman standing at the front glanced back at Zong Changjing and asked, "Why didn't you say it just now?" โ€

"You didn't even ask." Lao Cai's tone was respectful, but there was no smile on his face, "You came here early in the morning, and you were so noisy that we had to call everyone up...... You know how inconvenient it is to stay in a hotel these days, and there are a few of us living on the other side of the street. I'm holding this old bone to call you up and down, and you have some affection, don't you? โ€

"We're investigating key criminals, so don't talk about it. This is the captain of our sect, don't rely on the old and sell the old. โ€

"Hey, what a great captain." Lao Cai's eyelids rolled, "I, Lao Cai, have been running this line for 20 years...... I don't know how many captains I've dealt with, how come I've never heard of it...... You police captains of 'Zhuan', can you still come to arrest our 'Pangu' people? โ€

"You-"

"Mr. Cai." Zong Changjing stepped forward, "Please forgive us for being disrespectful. But you also know that the recent situation on our side is really complicated, and this matter is urgent, and the documents for the joint arrest are still going through the process......"

"I didn't see the paperwork, I was willing to call everyone up for a walk for you, it's already to give you face." As soon as the words fell, Lao Cai suddenly shouted "phew", and suddenly rushed forward like lightning, slapped off the pistol in someone's hand, and twisted it in a posture under his feet, "Yo, this is going to shoot a black gun." โ€

In fact, this posture is very awkward, but Lao Cai tried to maintain his momentum, slammed the table, and all the lights in the room suddenly began to go off and on again in turn from front to back, as if the lobby suddenly became a ballroom full of spotlights. Although it is always more eyesight-damaging to show your ability to manipulate electricity in this way, it can create an atmosphere of "you are all surrounded by me", and Lao Cai loved to use it when he was young.

The flickering light made Zong Changjing half-cover his eyes: "I just want a list...... It's not that I don't trust you, but with such a large team, it is inevitable that a few people will come over for the first time under the banner of 'running the boat' and make some small moves on our ship. โ€

"As I said, my brothers all followed me when they were young." Lao Cai snapped his fingers, and the lights returned to normal, "We are different from you policemen here, we don't want to change people at two ends in three days...... lest some hairy boys also get mixed into high positions. โ€

Zong Changjing gritted his teeth and was about to speak, but he saw a young man holding a steamed bun as high as a hill walking in, and he didn't seem to notice the atmosphere in the room at all, so he put the paper bag on the table and said with a smile: "Uncle, I'm back." โ€

"My nephew." Lao Cai pointed to the striped shirt that had just come back, "Now there are all the people." What, do you still want to stay and share steamed buns with us? โ€

"Do you insist on having a problem with us?" Zong Changjing's eyes were gloomy.

"You're not alone on the ship now, right, what, you still want to give the eviction order?" Lao Cai picked up a small steamed bun and seemed a little disgusted, "Actually, I don't really want to stay here, just do business, you must talk about credibility...... Do you know what I did before I did this? โ€

Without waiting for Zong Changjing to answer, Lao Cai went straight and said: "I am begging for a living in the army, and I am still your senior." What I was best at that time was to let all the enemies experience the uneven conductivity of various metals on my body - speaking of which, in the early years, we had a few rounds of fighting between several fleets. โ€

"Senior Cai, I understand what you mean." Zong Changjing stared at him and spoke, his tone threatening, "Then we'll go first...... However, our ship has not been very peaceful these days, please take care. โ€

"Walk slowly, I'm still hungry, old man, so I won't send it." Lao Cai pretended to wave his hand and watched Zong Changjing and his party leave.

"Lao Cai...... Are we a bond with someone? Someone stuffed steamed buns into his mouth with a smile on his face, and he was eager to try.

"What are you happy about?" Lao Cai glared at him, "What's the matter, the skin is itchy again?" Want to get into trouble again? โ€

"Isn't it that I can't get used to his finger-pointing look? Obviously, when I came back a few times ago, the surname Zong was just a sycophant who followed at the end. โ€

"Don't be too crazy. He didn't bring enough people this time, so he didn't dare to confront us head-on. We've all been so long-minded these days, that kid is definitely the kind with a bad stomach. Lao Cai took a cup of soy milk from others, took a sip, and suddenly pressed the striped shirt on the table, "Stinky boy, what about another person?" Didn't you tell you to take a good look at him? โ€

"Didn't you see what he was here for?" The striped shirt hurriedly said to forgive, "Don't don't uncle, don't break it, it hurts!" He said that he would cause us trouble when he came back, so I had to take a leave of absence from him - and reminded us to be careful. โ€

"This one is not worrying." Lao Cai's face was quite indignant, "One generation is not as good as the next...... When I was young, I was an undercover agent at the other side for half a month without anyone finding out! Look at this guy who came to us, I'm even drunk and better than him! โ€

"Of course, you can talk so much if you drink too much...... Can start talking about the king of children who can mix into a generation of children from kindergarten......"

"Stinky boy." Lao Cai took out a cigarette from his pocket and put it to his mouth, "If I hadn't accepted this stuffed by his sister, I wouldn't have bothered to care about him." โ€

"Maybe it's a sister, maybe it's an assistant or something?"

"Do you still need to say it?" Lao Cai knocked the head of his striped shirt, "What is that kid doing now?" โ€

"When I went out in the morning, it seemed that something had happened to another civilian here. He went to the scene of the crime alone and ran away after coming back, probably because he was afraid that we would also be implicated by him. โ€

"Stupid." Lao Cai smacked, "Follow us, his life will definitely be saved, if he runs around, we won't be able to take care of it." โ€
