Chapter 20. I'm your ex-wife

In Zhou Jinru's view, Kelsey's invitation is very beautiful even if it is a physical examination.

He just wanted to have a good relationship with the number two in Rhode Island, and had absolutely no other ideas.

Therefore, on the way there, not only did he walk briskly, but he also smiled, as if the little negative effect when he had just absorbed the source stone did not exist at all.

But as he passed through the hallway of the staff quarters, an arrow passed through his ear, and then a figure rushed out of the corner, and at a glance he saw the doctor stunned in place.

"Doctor, help!"

The scrambled boulder grabbed him and hid behind him.

At this time, Platinum, who was holding a longbow, appeared in front of the two of them with an indifferent face, and in front of the doctor, she had to restrain even if she had a big grievance.

"What's the matter with you guys?"

"Miss Li, I want to have a friendly exchange."

Platinum said in a deep voice.

There was a hint of murder in her flat tone.

Zhou Jinru moved his footsteps, blocked in front of the gravel, and asked, "What's the matter with you and Platinum?" ”

"She said that the new knights of Casimir now are clowns with oil paint on their faces. ”

Casimir's knights are indeed very different from the past, but there is also a problem with the way Platinum speaks, according to her, sooner or later, even Rinkoh will have to rush with a war hammer, although Rimlight has not yet returned.

"Okay, they are all their own people, there is no need to say these words in the future, whether it is an upstart knight or an old knight, they are all products of the times, and they don't need to be so clear."

Zhou Jinru stared at Bai Jin's eyes: "Bai Jin, in my room later, I have something to ask you." ”

Li's eyes widened suddenly, Platinum had only been back for a few days, why did he cut off his beard from them?

Having said this, Bai Jin reached out and stroked his hair, and said softly, "Miss Li, I apologize to you for your behavior just now." ”

The look in her eyes as she was leaving, as if she was thinking of Miss Groundhog's victory.

"Doctor, do you really want to be alone with her?"

Gravel grabbed Zhou Jinru's hand.

"It's okay, don't look at Platinum like this, she's a very serious person, I have some questions to ask him that is really appropriate, and she won't do anything out of the ordinary."

Since Zhou Jinru still had to rush to Kelsey's personal clinic, after resolving this sudden dispute, he left in a hurry, leaving Li alone in a daze.

The arrow shot by Platinum pierced the walls of Rhode Island's inner corridors, breaking the wires buried in the walls, causing the area's electricity supply to drop, and Lyudmila, who had been playing electric in her dormitory, suddenly lost power.

What's going on?!

The girl with ochre red hair appeared in the dark electronic screen, and then, she let out a terrible scream, and the hidden line that she had managed to make was lost before she could save it, and I don't know if this power outage had affected other archives.

"I go to class every day, endure the whip of that Instructor Pelo, and the training that is always deliberately aimed at me, in exchange for the game disc, the hard-working archive~"

Resentment that was almost substantial floated from the top of Lyudmila's head, and she lowered her arms, staggered to her feet, and opened the door of the dormitory, only to see a crimson figure and a pair of indifferent eyes appear in front of her.

Confirmed the look, it was someone she couldn't afford to mess with.

The blackened Lyudmila immediately returned to normal and closed the dormitory door at an even faster pace.

Let's stay honest, the outside world is too dangerous.

Isn't it just a power outage, there are all kinds of e-books in her personal terminal, and it's a big deal to lie in bed and read books.

Well?

Did she forget something?

Forget it, don't think about it, it's important to read a book, and the plot that was disconnected last time is still very attractive to her.

Outside the dormitory door, two figures, one tall and one short, hurried in, the former was Gray, an electrical engineer from Rhode Island, who was responsible for maintaining the maintenance line, and the latter was Huang, who had just regained normal mobility, and her role was to use great force to destroy the situation when Gray could not handle the situation.

"This arrow, it seems, is Miss Platinum's?"

Huang stared at the long arrow that had pierced deep into the wall, and she remembered that Platinum's Source Stone technique had a good bonus to both distance and power, and could shoot through heavy steel plates from a very long distance.

It's no secret that Platinum is back, but why is she doing it here?

"Can you turn it on?"

"Yes, but the surveillance data is all with Miss Colushel."

Huang hesitated for two seconds, but still gave up her plan to go to Kruhill, she didn't want to deal with the blood demon who drank engine oil alone, and she would suffer every time.

"Miss Huang, pull it out first, I want to check the broken wiring in the wallboard."

Huang answered, reached out and grabbed the exposed half of the arrow, held his breath, and with a bang, the arrow was pulled out along with a large piece of metal wallboard, and the broken lines inside flew sparks.

Huang's face was not very good-looking, because the situation inside was not so serious originally, but after her strong demolition, it became worse.

"Oh, now the little rabbit has to complain about the increase in maintenance costs."

Behind him, Gray said nervously, "Miss Huang, you seem to be bleeding." ”

It was bleeding, normal, the wound behind her had not healed for long, and now it was torn again because of too much force.

"Who's on duty in the infirmary today?"

Dr. Gaville hadn't fully recovered yet, so the person on duty was definitely not her, and Huang was a little relieved.

"Seems to be Dr. Susulo."

"Okay, I'll go to the infirmary, Gray, can you fix that?"

Gray nodded: "Don't worry, I'll contact the engineering department." ”

Huang smiled at the shadowy place and hurried away, for there was a red wolf hiding there, and she must have been attracted by the fight in the hallway.

……

……

Zhou Jinru, who came to the door of Kelsey's personal treatment room, sat in a chair in the waiting area, waiting for the hostess to return, but somehow, he fell asleep on the back of the chair.

Shake, slight shaking, what sound from far and near, penetrated his eardrums, and drilled into his head, Zhou Jinru woke up suddenly, and an ugly-looking monster appeared in front of him, the black body was three or four meters high, and the hideous skull was almost on his face.

"Wow, what is this?!"

He broke out in a cold sweat.

The monster faded away from him.

"You're finally awake?"

Kelsey stood in front of him, dressed in a white lab coat, two meters apart, exactly the width of the monster's size.

"What did I just see?"

"A child who hasn't grown up yet, since you're awake, come in with me, although I shouldn't say it, but it's still necessary to remind you."

Zhou Jinru stood up, moved his sore muscles and bones, and asked casually: "What do you want to tell me, is it to agree to my request and go to Xinxista for a vacation together?" ”

Kelsey, who was walking in front, didn't answer, just clicked the switch, and the soft light sprinkled the eerie personal treatment room.

"Lie down."

Kelsey pointed to a new device with its own cabin, at least Zhou Jinru hadn't seen it before.

He pointed to his body: "Am I going to take off my clothes?" ”

"No, lie down."

Kelsey shook his head, and the look in his eyes seemed to say that I hadn't seen anywhere in you.

Zhou Jinru hesitated, because the medical device that Kelsey was referring to looked like a coffin from the outside......

"Are you afraid?"

Zhou Jinru looked at Kelsey: "If you say it, I won't be afraid." ”

He took off his shoes, stepped into the cabin, and lay inside, his hands folded in front of him, his eyes closed, and his expression solemn.

Kelsey: "...... With an in-depth check, you don't have to be nervous. ”

"No, I haven't died before, I want to experience what it's like to lie in a coffin once."

With his fists clenched and the corners of his eyes twitching slightly, the lynx suppressed his anger: "It seems that you have long forgotten all about the things that you have been lying in Chernobog for a few years. ”

"I don't remember."

Zhou Jinru was not impressed at all.

But at this moment, Kelsey's voice seemed to have a kind of magic, mixed with mood swings, and she said, "Do you want to experience it once?" ”

"What...... Is it? ”

Zhou Jinru only had time to say the first word, and the closed cabin blocked the second word in his mouth.

There was silence in his ears, and Zhou Jinru felt sleepy, he had obviously just slept, but now he was tired again.

When he opened his eyes again, he was standing in an enclosed building, the dΓ©cor of the room was unpretentious, even a little rudimentary, and the space was extremely cramped.

"Ivan Nikolayevich, male, 41 years old, intermediate mechanic."

Zhou Jinru searched all over his body and found only a worn-out wallet, in addition to a few crumpled banknotes, he also found this object suspected to be an ID card.

He rubbed his face vigorously, his facial skin was rough, his muscles were stiff, his cheekbones were high, his cheeks were thin, and he guessed that his face must be sallow now.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Jinru began to use conventional means to imply that he was in a dream, and he immediately noticed a familiar sense of immersion, as if he was sinking in deep water, that is, he was in a dream?!

As long as you want to get out, you can immediately float up and leave the dream.

He froze, could it be that this dream was made by Kelsey?

At this moment, there was a rhythmic knock on the wooden door on the other side of the room, three long and two short, sharp and slow.

This is a common docking code for Rhode Island operators.

Zhou Jinru didn't knock on the door immediately, but grabbed the wine bottle that fell on the side of the chair with his left hand, took out a revolver from his arms with his right hand, carefully moved to the door, and said quickly: "Three Phantom Gods!" ”

There was silence on the other side, and it took a few seconds before he replied, "Sereya." ”

He slammed the door open, and standing in front of it was an elderly middle-aged woman, wearing a thick ponytail, crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, and wearing a coarse cloth dress.

I don't know.

The other party seemed to see what he was thinking, and said coldly: "It is you who want to know what happened to Chernobog, and now it is you who are suspected everywhere, and there is no trust between us." ”

Now I know.

Who is this tone not Kelsey, but how did she become the way she is?

The middle-aged woman took out a small mirror from her apron pocket, and Zhou Jinru immediately saw herself in the mirror, with deep-set eyes, pale complexion, no blood, a messy beard at the corner of her mouth, and a pair of bear's round ears on the top of her head.

He remembered the name of the body, Ivan.

There are many Ivan in Ursas, not hundreds of thousands, but hundreds of thousands, just like Jack in Colombia, John in Victoria, Hans in Letania, and Xiao Ming in Yanguo, they are really ordinary to the extreme.

"Well, now that I believe it, what are we now?"

Zhou Jinru rubbed his bear ears, it was really fresh, and it was the first time he had experienced it.

Kelsey turned around, put his hands in the pockets of his apron, and said lightly: "My body's name is Caitlin, and she is a laundry worker in the house of a noble councilor in this city, and you, you are an unemployed worker, which is nothing new. ”

Zhou Jinru listened to Kelsey's description, and the two of them walked through the deep and narrow corridor one after the other, standing at the top of the staircase, he sighed: "When the capital of the new era enters Casimir, who is still immersed in the glory of the old aristocracy, even in the face of the giant wheel of the times, the old knights will raise their spears and charge bravely and fearlessly. ”

"There are too many people who are broken, and not all of them are willing to resist to the end, there are always people who choose to compromise and then throw themselves into the torrent of the times."

Kelsey's words fell on Zhou Jinru's ears, only to exchange him for a helpless smile: "You are right, there are smart people who will have stubborn people, Casimir is like this, Colombia is like this, and Ursas is also like this." ”

As they walked out of the hallway, the light shining on their faces, the noise of the street replacing the silence in their ears.

The bakery master is placing the fluffy riba on the open counter, and the citizens who come to buy food are lining up, and from time to time a group of students passing by, talking and laughing, they turn their eyes to the television set in the newsstand that broadcasts the daily news to the citizens, and in the display screen, a half-bald middle-aged man is giving a speech, but unfortunately no amount of wonderful content can attract the sleepy eyes of the newsstand owner.

A gust of wind blew, and an unpressed newspaper flew up, and in mid-air, one hand caught it, and by the way, threw a crust on the display shelf where various magazines were placed.

With a click, the coin fell steadily, waking up the newsstand owner who was fighting with his upper and lower eyelids, turned his head to look, and couldn't help screaming: "Aha, old Ivan, how long have you been kneeling on the washboard, and your wife is finally willing to forgive you?!" ”

Wife?

Is there such a thing?

Zhou Jinru's eyes changed slightly, and he looked at Kelsey next to him, that is, Caitlin in the eyes of others, and replied along the way: "My legs are still trembling!" ”

The two left in a hurry, blending in with the crowd of people coming and going.

Zhou Jinru had a stomach problem, and he tried to sort it out: "You and I are actually a couple?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Kelsey's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he said coldly: "To be precise, I am your ex-wife now, Ivan and Caitlin have just gone through the divorce procedures, and they have not been made public for the time being." ”

Before Zhou Jinru could react, she added: "Because we have a daughter who is still in middle school, in Jotunheim Middle School. ”
