Chapter XVIII: Inducement of Confession
The civil unrest has depressed New York's industries, and the prosperity of the past is gone, and the tourism industry is the first to be affected. The decline in tourists has left a large number of hotel suites vacant, and hotel owners have come up with various discounts and offers to promote their rooms.
Shen Yi and the others chose to stay at the Imperial Holiday Inn, one of the best hotels in the United States.
It only costs 200 US dollars to live in the presidential suite, which was something that no one dared to think of before.
For the sake of safety, although the six people asked for three rooms, the other two were just a cover-up.
After a day of fighting, everyone wanted to take a shower and rest.
When Wen Rou came out of the bathroom, he walked barefoot on the gorgeous carpet, wearing a high-end pajamas, with a bath towel wrapped around his head, and two snow-white arms exposed.
Hong Lang sighed and admired: "I really can't figure out how a girl like you can run to be a policeman, just your figure, face, and a lot of good careers are waiting for you." ”
Gentleness gave him a roll of the eyes: "Are you sure that the professions you get with your body and face are all good professions?"
Hong Lang shut up in understanding, and King Kong and Shen Yi covered their mouths and smiled.
King Kong said: "Actually, with a gentle appearance, it is not bad to wear a police uniform. What's one word for it?"
Shen Yi replied: "Heroic?"
"Yes. King Kong slapped his thigh: "This is it." ”
Gentle smirk.
Shen Yi suddenly changed his tone: "There is another word called uniform temptation." ”
Gentle, ashamed and angry, he grabbed an ashtray and smashed it at Shen Yi, who laughed and hid in the bathroom.
Entering the bathroom, Shen Yi's laughing expression gradually retracted, becoming solemn and serious.
Gentle is a careful girl, and after taking a bath, she also took the initiative to fill the bath with water.
Lying in the bath that could accommodate four people to take a bath, Shen Yi closed his eyes, and his mind was full of the scene of the battle during the day.
The adventurer from the North District had already touched him deeply.
He has always been confident that he is in the Bloody City, not to mention the best, and his strength is definitely among the best in the region of the same difficulty. Even though he wasn't good at fighting, he never thought he was going to lose to anyone in battle.
Even if it was a melee adventurer like Hong Lang, Shen Yi was confident enough to defeat him.
But today's adventurer in the North District, Shen Yi clearly understands that if he fights alone with him one-on-one, he has no hope of victory.
As long as he thought that the adventurer had taken the initiative in fighting with the gentle flood waves with just ordinary fighting, Shen Yi felt a chill in his heart.
He realized that his first two missions had been so successful that he had underestimated the others. And the adventurer from the North District gave him a slap in the face, reminding him that there are many, many strong people in this bloody city world.
They may not be glamorous, but they are incredibly powerful, and they also have the courage and courage to defy life and death.
It's not that Shen Yi doesn't know about expert-level martial arts, but Shen Yi has never heard of anyone who can be so powerful with the basic ability of expert-level martial arts alone. It can be seen that ability is only one aspect, and the more important thing is the person who uses it.
What is certain is that even if Shen Yi has expert-level martial arts, it is impossible to have the crazy, fast, fierce and fierce fighting style of that adventurer.
This style of play is not something that can be given by expert martial arts expertise.
All abilities are just for you to be able to do something, but how to do it, how to use it, is still up to the user.
The bloodthirsty and crazy nature of the adventurer is what makes him so powerful. Even if he doesn't have expert-level martial arts expertise, he is afraid that he will dare to fight against Hong Lang Gentle, and he will still not fall behind. At best, the damage effect of normal attacks is reduced a bit.
Thinking of this, Shen Yi's heart suddenly brightened.
Those abilities are like tools given to you by the Bloody City, and how to use them well depends on the user himself, and it is not enough to just know how to use them.
At this moment, the blood coat of arms suddenly made a dinging sound.
Blood Emblem Hint: Your perception of combat has increased, and you have entered the Talent Awakening Period in this quest world. During the Talent Awakening period, the Blood Emblem will evaluate your fighting style and determine your perk. The awakening period lasts between 24 and 48 hours, and within 48 hours, you have to fight in the way you are strong. During this time, the Blood Emblem will officially systematize your strengths and officially awaken your talents.
This hint made Shen Yi stunned for a while.
Was it this way that talent was opened?
It turns out that the so-called talent is actually a specialty.
To open the talent is to officially enter the systematic program of the adventurer's special combat style.
Man is a life that cannot be calculated, but the bloody city has endowed him with attributes that can be calculated. Since life can be calculated, then perks should be the same.
That's what talent means.
The only problem is: Shen Yi doesn't know what his talent is, and he doesn't know what kind of fighting style he is good at.
Thinking of this, Shen Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "People seem to be the most indistinct is themselves. Perhaps the revival period of talent is a process of self-awareness. You have to know what you're good at and what you're not good at, and then you can play to your strengths and be on the right path. And what about me? What the fuck am I good at?"
He put his arms behind his head and rested on the edge of the bath, staring at the ceiling in a daze, pondering for a long time.
―――――――――――――
When he came out of the bathroom, Hong Lang was already in a hurry.
Shen Yi glared at him angrily: "You won't go to another room to take a bath?"
"This is a presidential suite, it's different, I've never had a chance to live in it before. Hong Lang said with a smile.
Shen Yi smiled and gave him a punch, Hong Lang flashed sideways, but he didn't expect Shen Yi to step to follow, and his left elbow immediately hit Hong Lang, Hong Lang backhanded, trying to push Shen Yi out, Shen Yi rotated with a short body, and his left hand had already drawn an arc in the air and hit Hong Lang's lower abdomen.
The flood wave monster shouted: "Are you really here?"
He was not polite, he raised his leg and kicked Shen Yi, Shen Yi leaned back to dodge, and pushed his right hand towards Hong Lang's leg, pushing him a little unbalanced, and at the same time, one foot had already kicked Hong Lang's knee, Hong Lang was kicked by Shen Yi and fell to the ground with a thud. People are accustomed to grabbing something before they fall, and with a wave of his hand, he hits a vase beside him.
Seeing that the vase was about to fall to the ground and shatter, Shen Yi had already stood next to the vase, stretched out his legs, hooked the vase, copied it and put it back in its original position.
Hong Lang was stunned when he saw this hand, and shouted: "How is this possible? How do you know?"
Shen Yi smiled faintly: "When I came out, I was ready to ask you to practice moves, so I estimated the punching line and possible reactions in advance, and the rest was to execute." ”
"I'm asking about the vase. ”
"That's not in the scope of the calculation, but I put it into the variables, and although it is not calculable, it can be handled. Shen Yi replied with a smile.
Hong Lang shook his head: "I don't understand." ”
Shen Yi shrugged: "To be honest, I don't really understand, I just try to fight, think, and try multiple possibilities in the way I like." When I kick you in the knee, I quickly analyse what you might do and what the consequences might be, I'm not sure the vase will fall, but it doesn't matter if it will fall or not, what matters is whether I'm in the right position at the right time. ”
"Why are you so complicated?"
Shen Yi said about the fact that he had just entered the talent awakening period.
"You're saying that you can already awaken your talent?" King Kong was curious.
Shen Yi spread his hands: "It's just that entering the talent awakening period, and it is completely different from the official awakening." Talent is the only ability that varies from person to person in the force system of the Bloody City, and each person's talent is different, and the role they can play is also different, so it can be said that it is the most unfair reward in the Bloody City. ”
"And what exactly is your talent?" asked Gentle Concern.
"I don't know. Shen Yi replied helplessly.
Before the talent officially awakened, Shen Yi himself didn't know what his talent was, he could only try various ways as much as possible to see what he was good at. You must know that a person may be good at many things, for example, Shen Yi is good at cooking, and he has always been interested in cooking by himself, but he doesn't want Bloody City to think that his talent is cooking, and set his talent in cooking. If that's the case, it's a big mess.
So even if opening up a talent is to develop your own strengths, you should also be cautious.
Several people laughed for a while, and Shen Yi asked the fat man to bring the boy over. The fat man has no other skills, the level of coaxing children is good, and he works hard and takes on all the tedious work that everyone is unwilling to do.
When the boy came in, Shen Yi was taking the electronic map to check it carefully, and not far away was Wen Rou holding a book and reading it with relish.
Every time Shen Yi's hand pointed to a place, the corresponding buildings on the map would present a three-dimensional image and zoom in front of him.
The little boy had never seen such technology before, and there was great wonder in his eyes.
"Sit down. Shen Yi didn't raise his head and pointed to the sofa opposite.
The boy stood there motionless.
Shen Yi looked up at him, and then said, "That's not a request. ”
The boy sat down reluctantly.
Shen Yi continued to lower his head and observe the map: "What's your name?"
"Jerry Lasio. The fat man hurriedly replied.
Shen Yi said coldly: "I'm not asking you. ”
The fat man immediately shut up.
Shen Yi asked again, "What's your name?"
The boy reluctantly replied, "Jerry Lacio...... You devil!"
Shen Yi laughed: "Luo Hao, this little guy is much more daring than you." ”
The fat man smiled and touched the back of his head.
"So...... Jerry Lasio, can you tell me a little bit about the mutant colony? Because of your naughtiness, I've lost the clue to find mutants, and you have to make amends for it. ”
The little boy pouted: "I don't know...... Even if you know, you won't be told. ”
"Looks like you know. I advise you to speak up, and though I don't want to do anything to a child, if you really want to force me to ......"
"Do whatever you want, I'm not afraid of you!" cried the little one.
At that moment, the little boy's stubborn expression formed a vivid picture in Shen Yi's impression - he seemed to see himself as a child.
Shen Yi looked at him in a daze for a while, and he suddenly burst out laughing.
Shaking his head, Shen Yi walked up to Wen Rou and said, "Guess what I thought of just now?"
"What?" asked gently.
"I thought about our last mission, the German major general. The major general also told me what he had said to me. It suddenly occurred to me that I was like a Nazi, threatening a child to tell him what his kind was going to be, to betray his fellow citizens. I'm like an SS officer, looking for Jews everywhere......"
"It's not your fault, and there's nothing we can do. ”
"But that doesn't mean I can do the same thing as them. Shen Yi looked back at the child.
"Is there any other way for you?"
"No, I can't do anything to a child. Shen Yi replied: "Let's give up the idea of getting information from that child." ”
This answer made the gentle and fat man sigh at the same time, and the little boy smiled. At that moment, he felt like a little hero who had defeated the enemy, and raised his head high.
Everyone seemed a little depressed, and as for the little boy, it seemed that no one was interested in caring about him anymore.
The little one was idle, studying the map on the table.
It was the first time he had seen such a high-tech map that could magnify every point on the map into a three-dimensional image, and he was intrigued.
He would point to this building, and he would have a lot of fun.
"How is this map made? is simply amazing?" exclaimed the boy.
"Technology is ahead of its time, but it can't be used to help us find the people we're looking for. Shen Yi sighed and returned to the boy, playing a game of zooming out and zooming in with the child.
His finger landed on a shopping mall on 198th Street, and the three-dimensional image of the mall immediately appeared, including doors, windows, and floors.
Shen Yi pointed to the building and said, "We know that the mutants are on a certain corner of 198th Street, but we don't know where they are. Maybe it's in this building, or somewhere else? There are at least dozens of malls on 198th Street. ”
"Don't try to find them in your life. The boy replied triumphantly.
"Not necessarily. Shen Yi pressed back the building he had just clicked and put his finger on the intersection of 198th Street: "If mutants want to hide themselves, they must meet several basic conditions. One: It must be a suitable hiding place, the space needs to be large enough, and it is better to have more people coming and going, so that it is conducive to their concealed whereabouts. Two: They must have a way out, so the hiding place should preferably be one where the road leads in all directions. They wouldn't choose to hide themselves in the middle of the street, and if that were the case, the U.S. government forces would only need to outflank them separately from both ends of the street, and most of them would not be able to escape unless they were mutants with the ability to escape. Three: If there are more people, you have to eat, and mutants are also human beings and need to live. If you can choose a stash near a shopping mall or supermarket, you can solve a lot of unnecessary problems. From these aspects, the most suitable hiding place for mutants should be in the area of 198th Avenue East Square, where the roads are usually numerous, and the traffic is convenient. ”
The boy's face changed slightly, obviously being said by Shen Yi.
But the next moment, he quickly regained his composure: "There are three large supermarkets, four large shopping malls, two large parking lots, a financial trading club and a large square, and countless small shops, if you have patience, you can look for them slowly." I promise you won't find it even if you look for it for a year. ”
"That's right, so I still need the exact address. ”
"I'm not going to tell you. The boy said triumphantly.
He was dotting around the buildings of East Side Plaza on 198th Street, his face fluttering.
Shen Yi sat motionless, watching the boy's fingers dance on the map.
After a moment, he suddenly said: "In addition to the three big supermarkets, four big shopping malls, and two large parking lots in the East District Plaza, there is also a very conspicuous large building, why didn't you mention it just now?"
As soon as the boy flickered, Shen Yi's fingers had already landed on a certain point on the map.
The image of a tall building immediately appeared in front of the boy's eyes.
Ispar Catholic Church.
The little boy's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he looked at Shen Yi in horror.
Shen Yi said lightly: "You just said so many places, but this place didn't say it." I deliberately lured you to touch the buildings in the East End Square, and all your buildings have basically been pressed, but this is the only one that you can't even touch. Why?"
The boy's body was shaking.
"They hid there. Shen Yi stood up, turned his head and said to Gentle: "Start tomorrow morning and attack the church." ”
"Bastard, you lied to me!" the boy cried angrily.
Shen Yi had already turned around and entered his room.
―――――――――――――
Just now, a few friends persuaded me, it's right to think about it, it's pointless to entangle.
Now that I think about it, it actually started with one of my basic beliefs:
It's my belief that readers have the right to speak, and I can't delete posts at will.
However, considering that some statements may not be correct and will affect the reading of other readers who have not read the book, I came out to explain.
For this reason, the more the result is explained, the more war-torn it becomes.
In the end, someone came out and scolded me, and I scolded back.
In that sense, I made a big mistake.
So I changed my mind.
In the future, if I find an unfair book review in the book review area, I will not explain it, but I will delete the post.
Just now, a reader said that he had no malicious intentions, just joking, but considering the influence of readers, I deleted the post. After all, I haven't broken off.
I hope you understand this.
This may be the only way not to fight.
