Chapter 85: Who is the real Thor
The whole bar was pressed very tightly, if it weren't for the fact that I used more evenly and there was a plastic seal on the outside of this paper, I almost tore out a tear in the paper just now.
Xie Chen stood up and patted the dust, the note was held in his hand, it felt very wrinkled, and the plastic seal on it was very old.
Xie Chen didn't check it for the first time, but stuffed it into his pocket.
After doing this, Xie Chen sat down on the chair, and then took out a glass from the cabinet diagonally below the bar.
Looking through the reflection on the cup, the middle-aged couple behind them was squinting at themselves.
Xie Chen didn't care, his actions just now could indeed attract the reverie of those who had a heart.
After picking up the cup, Xie Chen turned around and walked towards the bar.
Then he took out a bottle of fresh milk from the cabinet shelf diagonally above the wall, and slowly filled the glass in front of him.
After sitting down peacefully, Xie Chen took the cup and drank it in one gulp, and the middle-aged couple's eyes left their bodies.
After seeing them look at Thor outside the door, Xie Chen gently reached for the note in his pocket.
As the note began to unfold, Dust gently laid it flat on the table, trying not to be noticed by others.
Xie Chen took another sip of milk, looked down at the note, the handwriting on it was very blurry, and it was basically impossible to see it clearly without relying on strong light.
Xie Chen leaned his head a little closer and lowered his head to check.
It's a pity that you can only see a few vague big characters at the top.
"Beach lifeguards...... Work ......"
Xie Chen's breathing immediately became a little short.
This note is actually related to Thor's work.
The job requirements should be able to answer some of the doubts in my mind now.
Even Saul's attitude towards this work code is inevitably too hasty, and it is estimated that even he himself does not know where this thing was lost.
Of course, this is also possible.
Xie Chen drank all the fresh milk in the cup, then shook off his somewhat wet hair and walked towards the door.
This clothes soaked in sea water are really uncomfortable against the body.
When passing by the door, the mother walked in from outside, and after Xie Chen explained, he took out a set of dry clothes prepared in advance from the backpack at the door.
After temporarily dealing with the contradiction between Wu Yu and Bian Table, Sol immediately came over to stop him when he saw him walking out with his clothes.
"Where are you going now?"
Xie Chen raised his hand and lifted the dry clothes.
"It's covered in seawater, and it's sticky."
"I'll go take a shower and change my clothes, and I'll come back later."
Thor nodded: "I'm still thinking about going and getting those two little couples back first, it's already past three o'clock, pay attention to your safety." β
Xie Chen replied, and then walked diagonally to the left side of the house.
The rest of the people don't matter to you for the time being, as long as the family is okay, the dungeon can be cleared smoothly.
Although he doesn't care about the lives of others, this is a strange world, relatively speaking, this copy does bring out the hostile target first, but he can't allow himself to do those things that have a strong sense of justice and are useless.
The bathhouse on this beach is located on the right side of the toilet, that is, at the back of the house, and is fully equipped.
After Xie Chen entered a bathing cubicle, he hung up his clothes first.
After taking off the coat that had been soaked in seawater, Xie Chen's probe looked around and gently closed the door with his hand.
Then he crouched down and looked at the gap below to make sure no one was standing outside.
After confirming that it was correct, Xie Chen took out the dusty plastic paper in his pocket and compared it with the sunlight shining through the window.
The sunlight penetrated the plastic sealant, and the unclear font on the paper was slowly presented to his eyes.
γBeach Lifeguard Duty Rules:γ
[Rule 1: You must bring more than one bottle of detergent and a flashlight to work every day, and you only need to sit in your place when you go to work during the day, and keep an eye on the tourists at all times, so that they do not enter the deep sea area alone. γ

[Rule 3: When you are in deep water, please pay attention to the movement around you at all times, there should be only the shouts of tourists, the sound of breathing, the sound of waves, when you hear obviously not belong to the above two sounds, please take out your detergent and spray it in that direction, and then leave immediately with the tourists. γ
[Rule 4: When a tourist comes to inquire about renting water equipment, please tell them the rental time and usage requirements of water equipment. γ

Rule 7: Remember that you are a human being, the tourists are also human beings, the drivers are human beings, and the people in the lighthouse are human beings. γ
[Rule 8: The villagers here are not very friendly, but they will still keep a distance from your house, if you see someone walking towards the sea outside the window in the middle of the night, don't make a noise, it is not a tourist. γ
Xie Chen squinted his eyes and looked at it from top to bottom, and there was indeed a lot of content that refreshed his cognition.
The lifeguards required in this code of work are a bit too mechanical.
It can be seen that as long as you can protect the safety of tourists and yourself, you don't have to do anything else, and you don't need lifeguards to do it.
"What's inside the lighthouse?"
Xie Chen put down the plastic note, turned on the shower switch on the side, and muttered to himself.
"There are human beings in the lighthouse, but I don't know who this lighthouse is useful or not, and who are the people in it."
Xie Chen washed the water from the shower on his head and shook his head.
To put it bluntly, the rules in this note are not necessarily as correct as the previous two.
Like the third rule, I have already verified it in advance.
In addition to these sounds, there is also a humming sound that gradually becomes clearer when it arrives.
In the case that the third rule is wrong, it is difficult for Xie Chen to believe that the seventh rule is correct.
Xie Chen wiped the water droplets on his face with his palm, and his eyes were a little tired.
"Maybe there's a monster in the lighthouse?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Maybe that's right."
Xie Chen took a deep breath, it seems that Thor still has to keep an eye on it, he probably still has a lot of things hidden in his body that he doesn't know yet.
After washing the slimy layer on his body after soaking in seawater, Xie Chen dried his body and changed into dry clothes.
Just as he was about to bend down to clean up the old clothes that he had placed next to him, there was a rustling sound outside.
It's like someone passing by and stepping on the dead branches and leaves on the ground, the sound is very obvious.
With the feeling of listening to a little drifting away, Xie Chen immediately became alert.
The group of people in the house want to leave, and it is estimated that Thor will not agree, so who can still walk around outside?
Xie Chen leaned on the faucet on the side to borrow strength, and then kicked up the window, his eyes looking out.
Not far away, a somewhat blurry figure disappeared at the end of his vision.
Xie Chen hurriedly jumped down from the window, and before he even had time to pack his clothes, he hurried out of the bathhouse.
Following the scene seen from the window, the dust girl chased after him, and further on was the woods.
Xie Chen couldn't help but have a little doubt in his heart.
Could it be the couple?
But it's not right, whether the footsteps are one person or two people, you can still tell the difference.
If it's really that couple, then where did the other one go?
With this doubt in mind, Xie Chen continued to run forward and chase after him, without losing any speed because of this.
Although it also leads to the woods, it is a different path from the one I went to before.
Xie Chen walked straight forward, turned two or three corners along the path, and finally came to a fork in the road.
"Which way is this going?"
Xie Chen stood in front of the intersection, biting his lower lip and muttering to himself in some confusion.
"Forget it, a dead horse can be a live horse."
Xie Chen shook his head, not wanting to spend too much time here, and after choosing a random one, he chased after the fork on the left.
It took about two minutes or so, and Xie Chen estimated that he had run a long way, and there were some marks on the right-hand side of his head.
But the road is getting narrower and narrower.
The mark looks quite new, and it is estimated that it has just been made.
Recalling the footsteps just now, the frequency of landing did not seem so urgent, and it was estimated that the speed of the journey was not fast.
I didn't stop the whole way, and if the road was right, I had basically caught up.
Judging from this mark, it should have been carved for a long time, and it is unlikely that it was just born.
Xie Chen slapped his thigh, and immediately quickly turned around and ran back.
If you choose the wrong fork in the road at such a time, even if you chase it back now, you don't know how far the target will run.
Xie Chen was tired and sweaty, but he was still hurrying back to run.
When he saw the branches of the tree walking gently, he only felt that his body was tilting when he looked at the Xie Chen in front of him, and the whole person immediately lost his balance and fell to the ground.
There was a tight friction between the elbow and the sand on the dirt road, and a lot of sand and rotten leaves squeezed against the skin, and immediately produced a large abrasion.
Before he could react to the pain, there was a huge tugging sensation in his back heel, as if he was about to tear his entire foot off.
Xie Chen only felt that the picture in front of him was a little spinning, and then he was dizzy.
The wound on the elbow began to ache sharply, and even the ankle felt like a scrape.
After a few breaths, Xie Chen slowly eased up, and found that the whole person was hanging to the tree, and two circles of hemp rope as thick as two fingers tightly covered the ankle of his right foot, and there was no sense of relaxation at all.
Xie Chen raised his head with difficulty, checking his distance from the ground.
But I found that even if I stretched out my hands, I was still nearly a foot away from the ground, and it was undoubtedly a fool's dream to touch the ground to save myself at this height.
Refusing to give up hope, Xie Chen turned his head to look at the tree next to the prescription trap.
Reality has given me a slap in the face.
The trunk that acts as a fulcrum is so thick that it is even thicker than an adult's thigh, and it is impossible to break a branch by rippling one's own ankle.
In all cases, he undoubtedly sentenced himself to death.
Xie Chen just wanted to get attention by shouting, but after thinking about it, he immediately held back.
It's a good thing if you can attract people, but this is the woods, and it's unclear whether there are monsters or not.
If another monster is brought out, his current situation will definitely be blood-spattered on the spot.
Xie Chen didn't want to give up hope, after all, he still had a glimmer of life.
Xie Chen hung down his injured hand straight to ensure that he could maintain his balance when he was suspended in the air, and then slowly touched his other hand upward.
This alone took several minutes.
Although the sun is not as fierce as at noon, it is still a torment to shine on the body for a long time.
Xie Chen's lips were a little dry, and beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead fell to the ground.
As time passed, the hand that Xie Chen's hand stretched up slowly came to the pocket.
The pocket watch, an important prop, had already been changed into this outfit before I washed it myself.
Xie Chen was just about to open the pocket, and when both fingers had already been lifted, a gust of wind slowly blew at this time.
The trees on the side began to rustle, and the canopy was blown to a slight extent, and the trunk wrapped in hemp rope was no exception.
Xie Chen hurriedly tried to press the mouth of the bag with his fingers, but this move involved the injured arm.
The wound was still embedded with a lot of sand and dead leaves, and his right hand began to spasm and tremble.
Although the physical body has been strengthened, it is still a human being, and the nervous system has a lot of perception of pain.
Originally, everything was developing in a good direction, as long as it could come down from the tree, even if it was used twice in a row, Xie Chen would admit it.
But with the swing of the trunk and the man, the idea also became a luxury.
Because of the spasmodic convulsions of the right hand, the fingers of the left hand did not press the pocket, but it tilted slightly to the left, and the moment the pocket watch slipped out of the pocket, all the illusions were also in vain.
With a bang, the pocket watch fell to the ground crisp and loud, and this realistic blow was undoubtedly a blow to himself.
Xie Chen exhaled heavily, now he can't even be a dead horse doctor, and he has never experienced such a heavy pressure since the beginning of the dungeon.
I thought it would be planted in the hands of strange talks, but I didn't expect to die today at the hands of a broken trap.
Xie Chen slowly narrowed his eyes, but after hanging for a long time, his body couldn't adapt to this discomfort.
The way to die is still so tormenting, Xie Chen only wants those monsters to appear now, and then immediately make up for himself, so as to save his mother from suffering here.
I don't know if God heard what was going on in my heart, or if my death had come.
A slight sound of footsteps crept in.
Although the voice was very subtle, at this time, Xie Chen's heart was already like ashes, and his thoughts were naturally cleaner than anyone else's, and this sound was also collected in his ears.
Although he knew that someone was approaching him, Xie Chen didn't make any movement, after all, it was superfluous to struggle now, and he didn't wait for the monster to come over and give him a good time.
The pace changed from slow to fast, and Xie Chen could feel him rushing behind him.
"It's a pleasure."
Xie Chen thought of such a voice in his heart.
Just as he was expecting the monster to tear him apart, his ears exploded with the words of his own great anticipation.
"How did you get hung here?"
"Didn't I let you go back on your own, and you still lingered here behind my back?"
Xie Chen's puzzled face?
Is it human?
Are you still talking to yourself?
Xie Chen twisted ten thousand question marks in his heart, and immediately opened his eyes, but the figure stood beside him and did not appear in front of him.
Xie Chen just wanted to turn his head to look, but his body was so restrained that it was difficult to even turn his ankles.
I saw that the figure shot quickly, and then before he could react, he immediately fell to the ground.
Xie Chen reflected in advance, and propped his palms to the ground, although there were also a lot of blood stains, but at least it was not to hit the ground.
There was a scream unexpectedly, and it was pitch black in front of Xie Chen's eyes.
After all, I was hung for too long, and the blood ran to my head, and I fell down again in an instant, and my body couldn't adapt to such a big change.
This also led to Xie Chen's helplessness, and he saw the appearance of the person who rescued him for the first time.
Before he could speak, the man walked over and grabbed him by the collar.
"Come back with me, don't stay here."
Xie Chen was a little dizzy, and immediately closed his eyes and stood up, still feeling severe pain when his ankle hit the ground.
But fortunately, the eye has regained its rightful abilities.
Xie Chen frowned.
"How did you get here?"
"Aren't you still looking after those people over the house?"
"Is there another monster?"
The person who rescued himself and was now standing in front of him was Thor.
Thor was also furrowed.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Xie Chen was refuted by him like this, and his head couldn't turn for a while.
"What do you mean by talking nonsense?"
"Didn't you come here with a change of clothes? We were just soaking wet on the other side of the coast, and you can forget it. β
Speaking of this, Xie Chen obviously had already taken precautions against the Sol in front of him.
Thor's eyes followed suit.
"You mean you just met someone who looks exactly like me?"
Xie Chen shook his injured right hand and slowly took two steps back.
"That's true."
Xie Chen's tone became a little calmer, and then his voice became low.
"But now I want to ask, who is the real Thor between the two of you?"
