6. Ripple sprint
An old, somewhat moldy matchbox is an unexpected match for a few dollars a pack of cigarettes. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info took out a match with his big thick hand and gently wiped it along the phosphorus paper on the side.
【Boom】
The firelight flickered and the green smoke was slow, which made the man himself a little intoxicated for a while. Pulled out a cheap cigarette roll and slowly approached it in front of the fire......
"Smoking is not allowed here. ”
However, Beidou's eyes quickly stretched out his hand and jerked the atmosphere that the strong man had cultivated with great difficulty was completely destroyed.
The "quiet" place that the strong man said is the fast food restaurant that can be seen everywhere, although there is no one at 90 o'clock in the morning, but the scene of two big men who are clearly attacking and attacking together and sipping Coke together has really attracted a lot of attention. Although helpless, Beidou knew the reason, and the tall guy sitting opposite him looked really ...... Abnormal.
"Ah, hey, too. ”
The strong man who reacted blew out the match, put the cigarette back, and looked a little unbearable, so he had to put a few fries in his mouth and bite them little by little like a hamster.
After slowly eating the fries in his mouth, the satisfied strong man stretched out his hand towards Beidou: "Big brother, let's get to know each other." My name is Ripple. ”
"Bowen?"
Beidou couldn't help but pick his eyes, black eyes, black hair, yellow skin, except for being a little strong, there was nothing like a gringo.
"You're a foreigner?"
"No, no, I'm an upright boy from the motherland!" Ripple patted his chest, "It's the ripple of the water waves, the lines of the lines, it's a bit like a person's name, but I've been using this name for as long as I can remember, and the names of my senior brothers are even more exaggerated." ”
"Beidou. ”
Beidou naturally didn't have any reason to hide his name, and seeing that Ripple was very friendly, he stretched out his hand.
However, the moment the hand was held with the giant palm of the ripples, the force from the ripple hand was far greater than Beidou's imagination, and it was not surprising that the strength of the hand was strong with the figure of the ripples, but now he was more like testing the limit of the Beidou, increasing the grip little by little, as if he was waiting for the moment when Beidou grinned in pain.
Even so, the current Beidou is strengthened because of the relationship between the body, and he doesn't feel much pain except for feeling a little numb. Naturally, people can't be bullied in vain, and after fixing down, Beidou will use his human way to govern his body, and use greater strength to grasp the past.
This time, it was Ripple's turn to frown, he looked at Beidou's face for a while with some puzzlement, and finally sighed with relief: "Big Brother Beidou, you are not an ordinary person, right?" ”
"Brother, you're kidding again. ”
Beidou smiled, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, "I am an ordinary person, but my hands are a little stronger." ”
"No, no, no, you're not an ordinary person, I finally confirmed that just now. It's okay for a person to have a lot of hands, but it's impossible not to be unresponsive to electricity. ”
Ripple said, opening the hand he had just held with Beidou, and the center of his palm was densely covered with many light yellow things that seemed to be beating.
"When I ordered food before, I deliberately touched the display screen showing the menu, and I took a trace of electric ripples, which I attached to the palm of my hand when shaking hands with you. Even if an ordinary person with great strength touches the electricity, he will definitely subconsciously retract his hand, but big brother, not only did you not react at all, but on the contrary, you shook it back with more strength than me. ”
Electrical...... Although Beidou didn't know the details of the means that this strong man had just used, he really felt a little numb the moment he shook hands with Ripple, but because it was within the range of bearing, Beidou didn't care. Now it seems that it was a little trick used by Ripple specifically for testing, and his purpose was probably not through grip strength, but through the natural response of man to electricity......
This guy looks like a face like a meat shield, but he didn't expect that there are a lot of means. Moreover, he pointed out that ordinary people will reject electricity, but he himself can attach electricity to his hands, so his identity ......
"Then tell me first, what's going on with the electricity in your palm. ”
After waiting for Ripple to shake his hand and direct the dense electric current in his palm to the ground, Beidou asked out loud, "What do you look like...... I guess it's a human being, too. ”
"That's natural, but big brother, a monster is sometimes no different from a human, so you can't judge it by its appearance, but by its habits. This can only be understood but not spoken. ”
Ripple grinned, and at the same time leaned in front of Beidou. Although this posture is a bit ambiguous, this strong man who has just played a small trick seems to be really low in terms of emotional intelligence.
"I have been practicing martial arts and practicing ripples with my master since I was a child, and I only came back from Lhasa a year ago to help my master's acquaintances. The magic techniques mentioned in the news are basically bluffing, and the slightest resemblance is only a superficial at most, and the real exercises cannot be passed on to outsiders who don't know, and the ripples I learned are one of them. ”
Ripple said, leaning his hand closer to the straw of the Coke cup.
"Ripples are difficult to explain, and they require the body to be in tune with things, so that the energy of some things can be controlled more or less. For example, the electricity just now was caused by me touching the live display screen, so I 'glued' some of the current in it to my hand, and now this ......"
As soon as Ripple's finger was raised, a straw-thick piece of Coke was "pulled" out like jelly along with his fingers. The wide-eyed Beidou hurriedly looked around, but fortunately, because of the obstruction of the wall, no one noticed the movement of Ripple's hand.
"This is the result of aligning my fingers with the straw and then controlling the air pressure in the straw. These are just examples, and there are many other things that can be in tune, the simpler the faster, and the larger and more complex the slower. So what!"
Ripple patted his chest, "Exercising is also necessary." Now, big brother, you can answer. ”
"It's about the same as you, someone teaches. "Although it's normal for you to come and go, Beidou won't reveal anything about that chat room anyway. With a turn of his eyes, Beidou casually found a reason to fool the past, although Beidou's strange power was indeed "taught" in a sense.
"Hmm...... But big brother, you still see it on the first day," Ripple glared at the copper bell, "Otherwise, you wouldn't have made such an oolong?" peek at the snake molting...... Burst. ”
"I'm sorry......" There is only this matter, Beidou is powerless to refute, so he can only honestly bow his head and apologize.
When he saw a creature different from a human at the first glance, Beidou was indeed a little nervous, but he was more excited and excited that his "exploration" had been confirmed, and it was precisely because he was so excited that he made a fuss at the beginning.
Beidou has been exploring the existence of unscientific creatures such as "gods, demons and monsters", although his parents have no objections, but they regard Beidou's goal more as a "bad hobby" like "teenagers addicted to online games". From yesterday to now, Beidou's targets have been confirmed to exist one after another, although this is not a secret that can be revealed, but it is enough to make him excited.
And judging by the situation with the ripples, it is clear that ...... He is not the only one who knows about the existence of creatures like "yokai".
"I've been researching the existence of yokai for a long time, and today...... I can see it inexplicably, so I'm excited. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, just pay attention to it later. She's not a stingy demon either, she'll understand. ”
Ripple touched his chin, "Big brother, can I report your information and situation if you don't mind?"
"Well, I kind of mind. Beidou pouted, he could see the monster, the less people knew about it, the better.
"No, it's not about selling your information to insurance companies. Ripple, who was rejected by Beidou, was obviously stunned, "It's not to pull you on the boat or anything, to be honest, we don't just enter this business." However, because of your special status, big brother, since you can see youkai, it means that some aspect of your body has changed, and some youkai with keen senses may also notice your 'specialness'. I don't know if you can understand it, big brother, the three views of monsters are sometimes a little different from humans, so I have to give you a little ...... Proof the same thing, prove...... You are from our side, in that case, they will be more or less scruples, and your life will be a lot more stable, big brother. ”
"You guys?"
The tone in Ripple's words is like ...... He's in the same organization. Frowning, Beidou asked, "Are you still organized?"
"Hmm...... Ah, that's pretty much what it means. Since you don't want to go to my side, big brother, it's not difficult for me to do it for you. ”
Ripple said as he pulled out two business card-like things from the pockets of his jeans, and on the wrinkled business cards that Ripple's ass sat on, which were the names, contact information, and addresses of Ripple and another person.
"If you figure it out, go to the address above and find her, I promise you it's really nothing. In addition, mine is also left to you, big brother, if you encounter any trouble, just shake the phone call. ”
“...... Ah, thanks. ”
After thinking about it, Beidou still put away the two crumpled business cards. Although I don't want to deal with them too much, it is not a bad thing to have an additional contact method of "industry insiders".
"Since you can also 'see' big brother, then I will say it directly. Recently, it has not been peaceful in this neighborhood, and there is an evil demon with no license or license to break in to do evil, and several people have been killed in the night. ”
Ripple said and stood up, sucked hard, and sucked all the Coke in the cup into his stomach, "I'm also worried about this, big brother, if you see something, don't mess around, run away first and then contact me." It's also for your ...... big brother Good life. ”
