"Puppets?"

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of everyone present couldn't help but fall on Miss Puppet.

As soon as I finished talking about puppets, I happened to have a commission?

That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it?

Bai Chen spread his hands and smiled, "I'll just say it...... Sooner or later, this restaurant will be turned into an office! ”

At this moment, Chen Ye's heart moved, opened the pupil of luck, and observed the aura of luck on the client.

Compared to before, the blood light was more intense, and the surrounding area was surrounded by a dull, deep luster, with fragmented traces that filled the surroundings, as if to drag the dreamer into a nightmare that would never wake up......

The situation seems to be getting worse!

Recently, there have been many more victims of the "puppet incident" in the forum.

Chen Ye frowned and pondered for a moment, and gradually linked the puppet incident with the human head fruit that swept the city in his mind.

In fact, both of them have something to do with the [art department......

Other words......

Miss Puppet has been attacked, and it is likely that the main goal at the beginning was not to control the other party, break into the player's interior, and suddenly launch an attack to cause chaos?

After all, Miss Puppet was just a second-turn at the time, and it was too whimsical to think that with the second-turn profession, it would have a subversive effect on the plans of the entire player team.

So it seems......

When Miss Puppet was attacked, it is likely that the target of the attacker was not to control the other party at first, but to the puppet factory!

They need to alienate this factory and turn it into a copy, so as to have a certain impact on the pedestrian street?

As for Miss Puppet, who was later controlled, launched a surprise attack on Chen Ye and others in the Scarlet Building, it was just a follow-up excavation.

No matter how you think about it, if it's just to stuff a second-turn combat power into a melee, so as to enter the territory of other players and carry out sneak attacks......

The risks and benefits are completely disproportionate.

Now that I think about it, it is obvious that behind the attack on Miss Puppet, there is a deeper layout, which may be related to that factory!

"If this war is a battle between the [Divine Authority], then the first pedestrian street to be impacted must be a battleground for soldiers, and there are many unexplored areas about this place, and there are many mysteries lurking in this place......"

Realizing this, Chen Ye first interrupted his thoughts, and instead moved his gaze to the client in front of him, and said in a soft tone:

"Can you tell me about the past few days......"

The commissioned girl took a deep breath, restrained her chaotic emotions, organized some words in her mind, and then began to state:

"I've been having nightmares lately!"

"I always dreamed that I became a puppet, screwing in the factory, screwing all the time, day and ......night"

"In that dream, I felt as if there was some thread connecting my body, controlling my hands and feet......"

"Even if I realized it was a dream, I couldn't control it, so I had to keep screwing it......"

"It may be hard for you to imagine what a terrible thing this is for a Dream Weaver!"

"I can't activate my own characteristics, weave my dreams, control my sleep time......"

"Every time I wake up, I will find that the sleep time is far beyond normal, when it is better, I can wake up in about ten hours, but in some extreme cases, I will even sleep for two days and two nights......"

"When I got up, I felt as if I wasn't my own, and my hands and feet were extremely sore, like I had really been screwing in the factory for so long."

Miss Puppet couldn't help but interrupt:

"Is that factory you are talking about, is there a lot of puppets with mechanical assembly lines, sliding past a huge turntable, with many silver thread-like lines connecting the various puppet components?"

"Yes!"

The entrusting girl nodded hurriedly, her eyes were slightly surprised, and she was surprised that the puppet lady could accurately say her dreams.

At this time, Chen Ye already had some guesses in his heart, but he looked at the [Dream Weaver] and said in a deep voice:

"Since you've been stuck in nightmares around here, why don't you consider changing places and giving up the pedestrian street?"

She took a deep breath, a hint of fear appeared on her face, and said in a trembling tone:

"That's exactly what I'm going to say next......"

"Since I realized that something was very wrong in this neighborhood, I realized that this place was not suitable for a long time, so I chose to move out, temporarily leave the pedestrian street, and choose to rest in an old mansion on Mink Street."

"This mansion was lived in and recommended by a friend, except for being deserted, there is basically no problem, it is used to shelter from the wind and rain, and it is okay to settle down temporarily."

"I moved into the mansion and stayed for a day, and the night's dreams finally returned to normal!"

"Just when I thought it was over......"

"I never expected that last night, when I fell asleep again, I dreamed of that factory again!"

"This time, I'm no longer the puppet with the screws, but I'm divided into countless parts and placed here and there......"

"I felt as if my consciousness had been split into countless pieces, and I could see my components from all directions, and I could see the strange puppets that grinned at me with a horrible grin!"

"That time, I was really scared to wake up!"

"When I opened my eyes again, I found that I had returned to the original house on the pedestrian street......

At this point, the [Dream Weaver]'s pupils contracted violently and dilated, as if he had seen something terrifying.

"When I first opened my eyes, I suddenly found the face of a puppet lying on the windowsill!"

"That puppet is bleeding!"

"It looks exactly like the puppet I turned into in my dreams!"

After saying the last sentence, [Dream Weaver] almost collapsed on the back of the seat, as if he had exhausted the energy of his whole body, and felt that the scene in front of him was about to be completely blurred, and his consciousness was about to dissipate at any time, and he was completely unconscious.

Until there was a melodious suona sound next to her, her emotions calmed down in the gradually calming music, raised her head, and glanced at Chen Ye with a little gratitude.

"Until now, I haven't closed my eyes again, for fear that I will fall asleep if I am not careful." [Dream Weaver] is funny and poignant.

As a [Dream Weaver], but he didn't dare to sleep......

I'm afraid only she knows what's going on.

Chen Ye glanced at the entrusted girl, found that the other party was in a very poor mental state, muttered for a moment, and said to Chenxi:

"So be it...... For the time being, you should take refuge in the Church of the Burning Sun. ”

"You're somewhere else, and you're suddenly transferred back into the house, and I don't know if it's a feature or if you've been physically relocated in your dreams."

"Although I don't know if the Church of the Sun can bless you with your safety, it is safer to arrive at that place after all."

The commissioning girl's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe her ears:

"Church of the Sun? You can't just go into that sacred place, right? Can I go there? ”

"Normally, it's really not good." Chen Ye smiled, "When it happens...... There's a party member here today who happens to have something to do with the church, and it shouldn't be a problem to say hello and let you stay there for the night. ”

Chenxi smiled, did not refuse, and said gently:

"Anyway, there are many beds in the common room, and there are not many more, but I am afraid that if I fall asleep, there will be another nun in the church."

Miss Puppet couldn't help but blush when she heard this.

"Thank you...... You are such a good group of people......" The entrusted girl's nose was sore, and the sense of crisis that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time seemed to be finally released, turning into pearl-like tears, which could not be suppressed from both sides of her cheeks.

During this time, she sought the help of many "friends", but only received some constructive advice, but no one was willing to take the initiative to come to her and provide truly valuable help, and even feared that this curse might spread to herself, so she chose to delay replying to messages, deliberately avoid, or ignore them for a long time.

Among them, it also includes girlfriends who used to be in a dormitory during college and had a relationship that couldn't be better.

In this world full of weirdness, everyone is difficult to protect themselves, it's good to survive, who has the heart to care about other people's affairs?

Once something happens, in order to prevent the disaster from spreading to you, you can't hide from it......

"I can do a divination for you."

Chen Ye pondered for a moment, and then took out the [Good Luck Dice].

It's not just to know the next fortune of the entrusted girl......

It's rare to catch a "divination customer", so it's natural to brush up on this month's stage tasks.

Everyone's eyes fell on this dice, and their eyes moved slightly, all realizing that Chen Ye had probably unlocked the traits related to [Fate].

Miko on the side sighed: "Alas, it is really difficult to find employment these days, and even the boss has followed the employees to do the work." ”

But she remembered that in the café before, she did the work of three employees by herself, and suddenly felt that such a salted fish life seemed to be not bad.

"Good!"

The commissioning girl nodded.

The next second.

Chen Ye tossed the dice in his hand.

With a "click", the dice landed on the wooden floor of the composite material with a crisp sound.

The number pauses for a moment at the spiritual number "2" and then falls back to "1".

Chen Ye's eyes looked at the entrusting girl with a slightly heavy gaze, and said in a deep voice:

"I'm afraid your next fortune will not be very good, it's best to stay in the Sun Church, if the incident is not over, don't come out casually!"

When the other party saw the number of dice, he also realized this, and quickly nodded.

Soon, the entrusted girl, with the support of Dawn, returned to the Lieyang Church first to rest.

It's a temptation......

If that kind of trait can bypass the Sun Church, the commissioned girl will be brought back to the pedestrian street again......

That shows that the existence behind this incident is not something that Chen Ye and others can afford to provoke.

Although the current "Lord of the Sun" is likely to be affected by the [Black Sun], the church is still operating normally, and many contracts in the name of "Sun" can still take effect, which means that the "Lord of the Sun" can still drive the [Divine Authority] for the time being, and the situation has not reached the worst point.

Wait for Dawn to leave......

Although Tang Wu is interested in continuing to follow up, there are still many matters in the Manufacturing Association, and he needs to go back to work by himself, so he can only leave with regrets and farewell.

Bai Chen also patted his butt from his seat and got up, and said with a leisurely face:

"If there is any incident that needs to be investigated, you can entrust me at any time, or if there is a commission event here, there is a suitable remuneration, you can also find me to serve, the price is negotiable, the main thing is that the event is interesting."

As soon as the words fell, Bai Chen's figure melted into the black shadow and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Miko, who looked like an old god, obviously didn't dare to be interested in these things, but took the initiative to get up and go to the back kitchen to help Wang Jing with the big order of 1,000 grilled chicken wings.

Miss Puppet chose to stay, intending to follow up on the events that followed.

She looked up at Chen Ye and asked with a slightly worried expression, "Where should we start the investigation now?" Will it be dangerous? ”

Judging from the current information, the incident that the [Dream Weaver] encountered was not a dream at all!

The place she dreamed of was Miss Puppet's original factory!

But as for why you dream of that place? Why do you still inexplicably return to the original "insomnia treatment center" when you leave the pedestrian street?

When I woke up, I happened to see the puppet in the dream at the window, with bleeding facial features and a terrifying appearance, just like a threat!

Chen Ye pondered for a moment, connected all the information in his mind, and gradually had a certain number in his heart, and slowly analyzed:

"It's not so much a dream, but with the help of the form of a dream, the consciousness of the [Dream Weaver] is pulled into the puppet's body, and her consciousness is used as the puppet's driving force to provide free labor for the factory."

"What is the purpose of doing this?" Miss Puppet was puzzled.

"That's hard to say!" Chen Ye sneered, "Some rituals require the creation of a large number of dead corpses in order to meet certain yin and evil conditions, and there may be various tedious and distorted steps in between, which will eventually achieve the effect of destroying the entire city. ”

Miss Puppet suddenly thought of the thousands of players who were killed by the pit in the [Dragon God Festival], and she realized something in her heart and fell silent.

"Boss, what should you do next?" While Wang Jing was making grilled chicken wings, he listened to Chen Ye and Miss Puppet talking outside, and he couldn't restrain his curiosity in his heart and asked.

Although he knew that Chen Ye's strength was very strong, this incident did sound a little weird.

"Of course, I'm going to go there and have a look."

Chen Ye clapped his hands, stood up, and smiled calmly:

"If you want to teleport our client back directly from such a distance, unless you have the characteristics of the [Spatial System]."

"But this group of puppets already has the characteristics of the [Art Department] and the [Control Department] in it, so it is obviously unlikely that there will be a [Space Department] ......."

In fact, there is one more thing that Chen Ye did not say.

When the dice pause to "2", it is very likely that there is still the shadow of the [Spirit Realm] behind this incident, which already has three characteristics in it, if it also covers the [Space System] and reaches the stage of four turns, it is not something that everyone can solve.

And the white cardinal who already corresponds to the Burning Sun Church in the fourth turn belongs to the high-level combat power, just a group of puppets, and he does not have such a terrible means.

Therefore......

The reason why the entrusted girl woke up and found that she had suddenly returned to the "insomnia treatment center" was probably related to that house!

Chen Ye plans to go there and conduct a formal investigation.

"Shall we go now, then?"

Miss Puppet glanced at the sky, it was dusk, and wondered if she should finish her investigation before it got dark.

"No!"

Chen Ye shook his head and said:

"When it gets dark, we'll go out and investigate."
