Chapter 50: The Original Form
High Diver sat at the kitchen table, opposite him was the sphinx-like, pointy-eared puppy. There was a plate of ham sausage in the middle, and a man and a dog looked at each other silently, and no one had the intention of looking away first.
After a while, Gao Qian slowly took out a ham sausage from the plate and took a bite: "Don't eat meat?"
The puppy stared at him silently.
"But you eat monsters?" Gao Qian chewed on the ham sausage fiercely, "So what the hell are you?"
Of course, the puppy won't answer, and not only that, but Gao Qian also feels that he sees mockery in the puppy's eyes.
"Okay, don't say yes, okay," Gao Qian suddenly reached out to grab the puppy with lightning speed, only to find that the little thing had disappeared in place.
Invisible?
Gao Qianqi touched the air a few times, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he took a step forward.
Green flames rose from the furniture, and the floor seemed to be covered with a green dynamic carpet.
Gao Qian looked at the room in front of him, this was the first time he had seen his room in Infernal Affairs, the house was very clean, and there was no bad residual information left.
Gao Qian turned around and looked around, and sure enough, he saw the puppy, which was sitting on the floor not far away, staring at him gloomily.
"Sure enough," Gao Qian said, "to be able to enter the Infernal Realm, that's why you can appear in the office out of nowhere." ”
He looked at the puppy carefully, and in the Infernal Realm, its image did not change much, except for the dancing green flames reflected in those dark eyes, which made people feel a little chill in their backs for no reason.
"So what the hell are you a monster?"
The puppy silently bared his teeth at the high submersion.
"By the way, I remembered, I stabbed a monster in the Infernal Realm, it seems to be some kind of hellhound or something, is it you?" Gao Qian sneered, "The wound on my stomach healed so quickly, why wasn't I killed it once, so I was very unwilling to send it to the door for me to kill again?"
The puppy stood up suddenly, lifted its upper lip, bared its canine teeth, and lowered its forelimbs in a gesture ready to attack.
Gao Qian bent down and looked at the canine teeth in the puppy's mouth, and shook his head loudly: "Look at those little milk teeth, like rice grains, I don't know if you can bite into a steak?"
The puppy closed his mouth in exasperation.
"You're here for the Twilight Blade, aren't you?" Gao Qian glanced at the couch, and in the Infernal Realm, his rucksack was shining like a treasure pot full of treasures. Twilight's Blade is thrown in the corner of the couch, glowing faintly. But he remembered that he had put Twilight Blade in his backpack when he came back last night.
"Looks like there's nothing you can do with that knife. Gao Qian continued to sneer, "You must be very unhappy now, right? ”
A guy who burned a vicious man-wolf in one move in the Infernal Realm, Gao Qian knew that it was pure luck that he could win it. And that monster underestimated the high diving is also a very important reason.
"So I guess your purpose in following me is probably to restore your original appearance, strength, true body, whatever. Gao Qian's arms were clasped around his chest, "Eating monsters can help you recover?"
The puppy sat back on the ground coldly.
"If you don't object, I'll take you by default. ”
Gao Qian stared at the puppy's slender dog face, and he felt that if that face could have a human expression, it must be sneering constantly.
"But that thing on the boss today, you don't seem to be able to deal with it on your own. So, do you need my help?"
The puppy grinned as if yawning, an action similar to the monster that was on fire last night. Gao Qian is more sure now.
High Dive straightened up and stared at it in silence.
There is no demonic energy on this little thing, at least the current high dive can't see it. In the Infernal Realm, most monsters will take on their original form, such as vampires and man-wolves. Even if a human wolf takes on a human form in the Infernal Realm, it looks different from a human form in the Human Realm. It can be said that Infernal Affairs is like removing a layer of beautifying filters, and everything will appear as it really is.
It's just that this little thing hasn't changed much.
So it was really a little milk dog, and what about the flaming monster he had killed? He was pretty sure there must be some connection between the two, as evidenced by the time and place of the puppy's appearance, the location of the wound on its stomach, and its interest in Twilight's Blade.
But its current image in the Infernal Realm makes that unreasonable. It was wounded, had lost its strength, and should not be able to disguise itself in the Infernal Realm. So is the previous image of a monster covered in fire a disguise?
Why is it pretending? What does it want to do?
Gao Qian frowned thoughtfully. He found that he had always been able to summon something powerful, the demon in the subway, the red-armored knight on the elevated highway, and now this thing that was probably an incomparably powerful monster.
But why? What is it about them that interests them so much?
The puppy on the ground silently stared at the high dive, and the cold green flame danced in his dark eyes. Despite its disadvantage, it doesn't look timid. Although it stares up at the high dive, it gives the illusion that it is looking down at the ants.
Gao Qian took a deep breath: "Well, my bottom line is, you can't hurt humans. On the basis of this bottom line, I don't mind if you eat monsters or dog food. You ate the monster on the boss's head today, which is considered a favor for me, and in return, I can let you stay here, maybe we can work together to hunt or something. But don't think about any of the hell's ideas, you have to know that if I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time. ”
The puppy bared his teeth at the high potential.
"Looks like you understand. ”
Gao Qian smiled coldly and stepped out of the Infernal Realm, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the puppy had also followed.
Truth be told, it's not wise to have a guy of unknown origin around. It's just that Gao Qian is now strangled a little milk dog, and he really can't do it, especially after seeing that its original form in the Infernal Realm is a little milk dog.
After thinking about it for a while, Gao Diver decided to wait and see. As he said, if he can kill it once, he will have the confidence to kill it a second time, after all, everyone in this world is constantly growing. Just as yesterday he didn't know what the Infernal Realm was all about, today he was able to enter and exit the Infernal Realm with ease.
Besides, when it comes to slaying demons, this puppy who can freely enter and exit the Infernal Realm is also a good helper. All he needs to think about now is how to make this potentially powerful puppy to his advantage.
Most importantly, if the high dive wants to figure out what secrets he has that attract mysterious powers, this puppy may well be the way to go.
At this time, the high diver's cell phone rang. He swiped the screen of his phone and saw that the caller was Shang Ke.
"Night Raven Bar, are you coming?" Shang Ke was always succinct and to the point.
Gao Qian hesitated slightly, he didn't like alcohol and didn't look forward to sexual encounters, he had never been interested in places like bars, but he still asked, "Who else?"
"Sister-in-law Zhang, her boyfriend, and a few other colleagues in the group. ”
"Is it anyone's birthday today?"
"There is no one who has a birthday, but there is one person who is promoted. ”
Gao Qian smiled.
He was promoted today, and the boss called the HR department and mentioned him as a project manager. And a 40% salary increase, plus the year-end bonus written in the contract, means that he will be able to buy a house in full in a few years.
"Do you want to appreciate your face?" said Shang Ke with a rare joke, "We're waiting for you to open the red wine." ”
"Okay. "High Diving is happily authentic. It is rare for colleagues in the group to have time to get together, so he naturally can't spoil the fun.
He had just hung up the phone when the phone rang again, this time Sherlock: "High dive, are you free?" I want to talk to you. ”
"I'm not comfortable right now, so I made an appointment with a friend. ”
"Then I'll drive you, and I'll be downstairs from you. ”
"...... what else could he say?
Night Raven Bar, with a bit of a strange name, I haven't heard of it before, it's probably a new bar.
High Diver stood in the middle of the room and muttered for a moment, then pulled out the Twilight Blade and slipped it into the inside pocket of his jacket. As soon as he turned around, the puppy stood at his feet, staring at him for a moment.
"You want to go too?"
The puppy expressed his will with a determined look.
"Alright," Gao Qian said, freeing up his computer bag and packing the puppy inside, "but remember that if you might be seen, you go into the Infernal Realm and hide." Even though you've got a lot of fans in the office today, I don't want people to think I'm a sissy with a toy dog everywhere. ”
