Chapter 6: The Strange Debtor

On the fifth day, after recovering 1,200 Tart from Old Nader, Kaiyun went to the door of the dilapidated bar again and handed the money to Raff. www.biquge.info At this time, he had already made up his mind.

When he put a stack of paper and pens in the scarred palm of the mouse-eyed man, he immediately inquired about the reason for the 400,000 yuan debt.

"You want to know?" Seeing Kaiyun nodding affirmatively, Raff smiled as if he had expected the teenager's reaction: "But if you want me to say, this is a trap, not a pie." ”

This time to collect the money, the rat-eyed man replaced the sharp knife made of third-level steel that day. He lifted the slender mechanical arm on his right arm, stretched out ten dexterous steel fingers, and pointed at the crumpled coins on his left hand one by one with astonishing speed: "Before you, several of them also came to ask together, and I said something. And their faces turned pale with fear. ”

"What's that?"

As if observing the boy's expression, Raff raised his head and gently spat out a word: "Membranous lizard." ”

Hearing the name, Kaiyun's reaction ......

It's not much different from the others.

This kind of monster, Kaiyun has not seen with his own eyes. But the warnings that the Authority was everywhere, and through the accounts of the bounty hunters in the taverns, the teenager had heard more than one of these monsters about the horror of these monsters: membranous lizards, living beneath caverns outside of Area 16, lurking in the darkest places.

He knew that because of the 'cataclysm' that destroyed civilization 400 years ago, most of the life on Earth was affected by a symptom called 'membranization'. Even today, the descendants of these creatures still retain the characteristics of their time. Their skin has become unusually transparent, and the muscles and internal organs can almost be seen. The membraneization is more severe, and some parts even become a thin diaphragm.

This strange membraneization interacts with the instinctive survival adaptation of organisms, causing the offspring of these organisms to gradually mutate. They have grown in size and strength. On more than one occasion, Kaiyun had heard from bounty hunters how their companions, who had been transformed into a Tier 3 steel body, were like a weak sheep, dragged into their lair by a membranous lizard in the dark, with no bones left.

These lizards are infested in the Level 2 Alert Zone and are rated as 3-star dangerous by the Authority!

"Do you want to listen to it?" Kaiyun is worried about the membranous lizard, and Raff has already counted the amount. He put the money in a wool pocket around his waist, looked at Kaiyun with a cold sweat on his forehead with interest, and smiled: "Basically, they have already given up when they heard that the debt is actually related to these crawling monsters." ”

At the word 'give up', Raff's eyes were still fixed on the boy.

And this time, Kaiyun's reaction ......

And unlike others.

He didn't speak, although his face was not much better, the young man still nodded very seriously: "Let's listen, if possible, I still want to try." ”

"Well, you're guts. But ......" Raff's eyes purred, and he extended his hand to Kaiyun: "Next, even if it's intelligence fees." 3000。 This is at least 100,000 worth of information, if you really have the heart to do it, 3,000 intelligence fees are a very reasonable price. ”

The ten slender mechanical fingers of the rat-eyed man flexibly rotated in front of Kaiyun, spreading out 360 degrees into the shape of a plate, waiting for Kaiyun to put money on it: "Haha, to be honest, several of them actually gave up here." It's really stupid, as long as they scrape together the money, one person can do a few hundred, but no one is willing to pay for it. This only says ......"

Raff licked his tongue: "They have no sincerity. ”

This thief-eyed fellow...... Kaiyun also knew why when Raff called them together a few days ago, he didn't explain the matter on the spot, but asked them to 'think about it' and ask again. Originally...... It's here waiting to be knocked on here.

3000 tower coins, not too much, not too much. For some debt collectors who are fully mechanized, have absolute force as a guarantee, and dare to enlarge the amount of debt, it may be a profit from a debt. But for Kaiyun...... It means that at least a month's profit is wasted.

"Can't be less? Raff, I've known you for a long time. ”

The rat-eyed man didn't speak, and the ten fingers flattened out into a disc were like a tray, and they circled around his wrist again.

"How can I bring so much money with me and transfer it to you." Kaiyun sighed and took out the resident card of District 16 from his body: "Say it." ”

"Oh, I thought you were just like them, just curious to ask about the situation. I didn't expect ......" Raff watched the management interface of the residents of District 16 pop up in front of Kaiyun, and said a little 'oh': "You really want to do it?" Membranous lizards! Membranous lizards! ”

The boy did not reply, and the 3,000 tats had been remitted to the bank account of the 16th District Administration of Raff.

Seeing that Kaiyun was doing things so simply, the rat-eyed man didn't say much anymore. After confirming the amount of the transfer, he explained the incident to the boy in detail.

"Listen up." Raff began to talk.

The debtor is an old man from Area 00 who claims to be a scientist who has traveled all over the world to study pre-apocalyptic civilizations. While here in Area 16, he stumbled upon a mechanical body he had never seen before in the ruins outside Area 16. He suspected that the body might possibly have......

"With ......" Raff's ten mechanical fingers poked his head one by one, slowly recalling: "What's it called?" ”

After watching Raff hesitate for a long time, Kaiyun shook his head helplessly. Naturally, he didn't focus on these things, and I really didn't know what Raff was bothering with such inconsequential things: "If you can't remember, forget it." ”

"No, I took 3,000, it's worth the money." The rat-eyed man turned his fingers and said, "Ha, ha, yes, biofilm." ”

'Biofilmenization' sounds like it's related to things like 'membranous lizards', but of course Kaiyun doesn't know what it is. But...... That's not the point, let it go.

With this in mind, Kaiyun continued to listen to Raff's story of what was going on.

After the old man excavated the object, he hoped to get a sum of money to study the body locally. After being introduced, the old man met one of Draco's debt collectors, and borrowed 400,000 yuan. The debt collector feared that Draco would object and let the cooked duck fly away, so he did not report it to Draco. This guy went straight to Makja and ended up lending out the large sum of money that cost them their lives.

"400,000, not 40,000, such a large amount of money, isn't he worried that the old man will not have the money to pay it back?" Kaiyun frowned. He didn't think that the other debt collectors in District 16 were stupid and would be hot-headed and overwhelmed by the money.

"First, this old man usually hires regular bounty hunters as bodyguards, and he looks like a rich man. Regular bounty hunters are governed by the Authority, and as you know, our loan agreements with borrowers are approved by the Authority. That is, if the old man is being collected by a debt collector, this is not within the protection of the bounty hunter. Therefore, if debt collection is to be carried out by force, the debt collector is not worried. ”

"Second, huge amounts of money, of course, have collateral. The old man used his resident card in District 00 as collateral. Speaking of this, Raff shook his head: "Now the world ...... Regardless of our 16th district, 17th district, 18th, 19th, 20th district, how difficult is it to obtain the right of residence in a district and get a resident card certified by the Authority, let alone District 00? That place, though as bad as ours, is the area where Agartha is located, and like the pre-civilization capital, it is much better than the rest in every way. ”

"In the end, the mechanical body in his hand is indeed different from what we usually see, and whether it is sold to a bounty hunter or the Authority, he should be able to get a lot of money. Just looking at a stable debt, no one would have thought of ......"

Raff said 'hey': "The old man is gone." ”
