Chapter 236: Last Wish
"I thought it would be a little more 'special'."
Lin Sheng suddenly frowned.
The girl on the print seems to look a little weird.
His face was pale, as if he was in the process of transforming from a normal human into something.
"It's not obvious, but it's a good thing."
The bartender pulled out a knife from the side, wiped it with an alcohol swab, and gently slashed his fingertips.
Several drops of blood fell one after another on the surface of the tin box, and were absorbed extremely quickly as if they had touched a sponge.
Then the girl's skin gradually became rosy, and her breath became completely normal.
"This thing seems to be a bit of an evil thing."
"What do you say?"
The bartender picked up a tissue and pressed the wound on his fingertip.
"Once I started using it, I couldn't stop using it, but the good thing was that it allowed me as an individual to change my sense of existence according to my needs every time I dripped, and as long as I didn't want to be discovered, it was very difficult for others to 'notice' me, which is why I have not been targeted or monitored so far."
"The price is that every once in a while, you need to feed it with blood?"
"It's more or less like a 'sacrifice.'"
The bartender nodded.
"The Shrike Bird's abilities are indeed immeasurable, but it is also impossible to counter these memetic supernatural objects that are parasitic by Morpheus and fundamentally affect reality, but don't take them lightly."
After putting away the tin box in front of him, the bartender once again propped his hands on the side of the bar and continued:
"The existence of the shrike itself cannot be traced back to its roots, and the information that can be queried by the outside world is only the camouflage of those shells, as for its inner ...... I'm sure to contain a lot of these supernatural objects, but if you want to ask me if there's a way to get the 'wild', I'll have to shrug my shoulders at you, the chances of these kinds of things appearing are much lower than real-life events, and most of them aren't as docile as the one I have. ”
"I'm grateful to be able to tell me this information."
"So what are you going to do now, the supernatural office you just talked about, it's just for those people to see."
"Can I trust you?" Lin Sheng looked up and asked the bartender.
"What do you say?"
"I just think it's more ceremonial to ask like this, aren't they all played like this in those film and television dramas."
Lin Sheng smiled a little helplessly, and then gently removed the feedback ring around his neck.
Then the right hand gently opened-
The bartender felt that the entire bar was instantly enveloped in a gloomy and strange atmosphere, and then he saw a black crystal long knife covered with blood-colored veins appear in Lin Sheng's hand.
With the appearance of the long knife, the figure of a girl also appeared on Lin Sheng's side.
Even if he is well-informed, the bartender can only be silent at the moment.
"As you can see, I've removed the feedback loop and don't have a weapon module, so I don't have the key to activate Shakti, what you're seeing now is Morpheus."
"Is this finally willing to disclose my existence?"
The girl's smile reflected the bartender's surprise at the moment.
"You...... Can you have both the ability to release the gods and bind the spirits, and your ghost is also self-aware? ”
Although he was very surprised, the bartender quickly adjusted his state, and just poured Lin Sheng another glass of wine at the moment, while constantly scanning the appearance of the girl beside Lin Sheng.
"yes, I don't know why."
Lin Sheng gently dispersed the crystal long knife, "So the topic returned to the previous place." ”
"What do you mean...... Life span? ”
"Well, I don't know how long I can live, the period of about ten years is just an estimate of the ability to release the gods, and my situation seems to be a little different."
"If your previous speculation is correct, the upper limit of the lifespan of the Divine Interpreter is ten years, but at the end of the day, the reduction in lifespan is due to the existence of the energy pool." The bartender opened the bottle of beer again and drank it.
"To put it bluntly, whether it is positive or negative, energy flooding your body will lead to rapid failure of body functions, you now have two abilities in your body, so I think positive and negative energy is being used, you know what it means."
"Yes."
Lin Sheng nodded and replied, "The best estimate is to fold it, and this is not counting the conflict damage caused by the simultaneous use of positive and negative energy sources in the two opposite directions, but this is my current body, and I can't give it up." ”
"Then I'm still the same question from earlier, what are you going to do?"
Lin Sheng pointed to the girl beside him who was half-kneeling on the bar chair and had climbed to the bar and began to look at the bottles and cans:
"You should recognize her appearance."
"Well, she's Lin Xiaoqian?"
The bartender said and looked Xiaoying's appearance up and down, "It doesn't seem to look like it." ”
"She's a ghost, a ghost in the shape of a person on the wall."
"You mean, she ate Lin Xiaoqian and then gained her own consciousness?"
"Not exactly."
Lin Sheng shook his head, "She did gain her autonomy because of Xiao Qian, but Xiao Qian is still alive. ”
When the bartender heard this, he instantly strung together some of the information of the moment:
"So you asked me to help you find information about the 'door', right?"
"Yes."
Lin Sheng nodded and replied, "I'm going to find a way to go to the 'door' next." ”
"What a crazy person would have."
The bartender could only shake his head helplessly, "Then let's be clear, what is there that I, a tool man, can help." ”
"Of course I'm not going to be polite to you." Lin Sheng smiled and nodded:
"First, because of her existence, my energy bank stabilizer is consumed very quickly, about five to six times that of ordinary people, that is to say, I need a dose every half a month or so, and once I exchange it at a high frequency in the organization, although it will not be anything, it is obviously inevitable to pay more attention than others."
"Second, continue to help me find information related to the 'door', especially related to entering the 'door'."
"Third, help me be a good 'city defender', I will do what I need to do, but I don't need to be too prominent, I can't be paid too much attention by the people above."
"Fourth, help me find as much information as possible related to the Mirror Society."
Listening to Lin Sheng's words, the bartender couldn't help but rub his bare head:
"I don't know why, but you seem to give me a feeling of giving me a 'last wish'."
"Almost, if the next time allows me to do these things, it will be enough."
Lin Sheng turned his head to look at the small shadow beside him:
"How does it feel to hear this bad news?"
"It's okay, it's a little longer than I'd like."
Xiaoying withdrew her gaze from the bar, "After all, with your disaster-summoning physique, it's already quite good for Xiannu to work hard to finish the next time." ”
"Lend you good words."
Lin Sheng drank the wine that the bartender had just handed him again, and finally stood up from the bar.
"Let's go, go home."
With the departure of the man and the ghost, the bartender was suddenly left alone in the bar.
…………
Minutes and seconds passed.
"Cuckoo~"
"Cuckoo~"
On the retro-shaped cuckoo clock on the side of the bar, a somewhat innocent-looking bird occasionally pokes out of the top pane to remind the people in the bar of the current time.
The bartender sat at the bar for a long time, and then came back to his senses as the cuckoo bell rang.
He put down the wine glass in his hand, and then took out a photograph of an old-looking film from a drawer on one side.
In the photo, there are two men and one woman.
The man and the woman were supposed to be a couple or husband and wife, holding in their hands what appeared to be a newborn baby, and a teenager in his early teens at his side was farther away.
"I've tried my best, but things don't always work out the way they should."
If Lin Sheng saw that photo, I am afraid he would be able to recognize the people on the photo directly.
The man and woman were exactly the same as the parents who took him to the dream of stepping into an extraordinary world for the first time.
And the young man's face was almost the shrunken appearance of the bartender.
The bartender picked up his phone and dialed a number.
"Dispose of the batch of negative energy pool stabilization potions prepared before, there is no need for it, and then find a batch of positive ones."
Then put down the phone and put away the photos in hand.
"It's time to open."
I picked up the wine glass and cleaning cloth on the side of the bar again, and wiped it down little by little.
The face returned to the state of Gujing without waves again.
…………
Late at night.
Lin Sheng and Yeerer returned home with a large bag.
"So you're yelling to 'buy something,' and you end up buying a whole bunch of food?"
Lin Sheng returned to the living room after washing, and then looked at Yeer's face full of excitement as he counted the snacks and many ingredients he bought.
"I thought you were going to buy clothes and shoes or something."
"Then you don't understand."
Yeerr directly opened a pack of snacks and stuffed it in his mouth:
"Eating is the most important thing in life, and what you wear is not what you wear."
"I now understand why you can't save your salary, it's not right, how much can you eat?"
“…… Didn't eat your rice, okay! In vain, I was thinking about how to learn how to cook. ”
"Okay, okay, then you snack guy take care of it slowly, I'll go to sleep first."
Lin Sheng stretched and then walked to the bedroom, "I slept on the sofa yesterday, and it's my turn to sleep in bed today." ”
"Okay, well, I'll sleep on the sofa for the sake of all the food you bought me."
Lin Sheng entered the room and just wanted to lie down and rest, but his mobile phone rang at an inopportune time.
When you unlock it, you find a message from the bartender.
[Greenland Jiayuan, Room 1808, Building 2, 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, identity ECPO truthfully informed.] ]
"Yo, is this a successful order?"
Lin Sheng put down his phone and looked at the Pushy terminal in his hand again.
Well......
A defender who cares about money, but is also conscientious.
It's okay to set up the necessary characters first...... Let's stand up.
