Chapter 97: Clues
"Ding! KP Tips: "Reverse Cross" overlap complete!"
Quan Heng twisted the eighteen sons thoughtfully, waiting for the space to stabilize before starting to move.
"Two more forks in the road."
Quan Heng pondered, "If you don't have a map at the beginning, you don't know how to go. Now these forks in the road look exactly the same and are not marked, and even if there is a map, it may not be useful. β
"Yo, wrongdoer."
A voice with a vicious smile sounded beside him, and Bai Yi held a blood-dripping scimitar in each hand, and walked over:
"What a coincidence."
"yes," Kwon smiled, "what a coincidence." β
Door-to-door traffic.
"What clues did you and Song Jingyun find?" Bai Yi raised his hand, and the two scimitars rubbed against each other, scraping off the blood-stained minced meat.
The tooth sore sound of "Hala Pull" in the friction made people's ears numb when they heard it.
"You've been attacked?" Kwon Heng's gaze swept over the scimitar, his tone calm.
"You don't?" Bai Yi twisted the scimitar with both hands and put it into the scabbard on his waist.
The old man's information is not easy to set, not to mention Bai Yi's precautions against Quan Heng.
But...... Mince?
The man in the mirror didn't bleed a drop when she was killed, he just fell to the ground and disappeared, and it seems that there are other monsters in this dollhouse.
"It's a fork in the road again," Bai Yi looked at Quan Heng obliquely, his hideous scar twisted, and he smiled a little maliciously, "You choose first, lady first." β
Let Quan Heng choose first, first, to test whether she has gotten useful clues, and second, Bai Yi originally wanted to follow Quan Heng's check for 40,000 game coins.
Quan Heng said casually: "On the left, close to me." β
Bai Yi hugged his arms, squinted and raised his eyebrows: "It's still a lady first." β
His scars crumpled together as he spoke, literally like a multi-legged centipede across his face.
"It's fine." Quan Heng turned around and walked to the left fork in the road, Bai Yi followed behind her, his eyes fell on her back.
- This is a precursor to the killer's search for weakness.
[Bet on two coins, these two people are going to fight, I already foresee the future]
[Hey, why did Kwon Heng expose his back in front of Bai Yi?] It's not that she doesn't know that Bai Yi is a bounty hunter, she is now a walking big check in Bai Yi's eyes! ]
[I probably didn't take Bai Yi seriously, Bai Yi's sequence has exceeded the A layer, but it hasn't been on the sequence S yet.] Just now, Quan Heng even killed the person in the mirror of Sequence S, and he still suffered a loss in his weapon...... Well, her weapons don't seem to suffer.]
[Tianshu suffered a fart loss, but he got it in the audition, and this group of humans didn't know it!] ]
"Bounty Hunter ...... Bought by the Thorn Empire"
Tang Junyi frowned slightly, and Yu Guang saw that Liu Wu could not hide his excitement and clenched his fists, obviously urging Bai Yi to hurry up and make a move in his heart.
He pushed down his glasses, although he didn't think that anything would happen to Quan Heng, but he was inevitably a little worried.
β¦β¦
In the game, the longer Bai Yi watched it, the more uneasy he became, and the original idle posture of holding his arms had unconsciously changed to his hands on the double-edged hilt, with a solemn expression.
If he doesn't have a weakness, why can't he find a flawed attack position?
It's simply impossible!
Bai Yi couldn't believe it in his heart, but the instinct of licking blood from the tip of the knife all year round roared in his heart to warn him not to do it.
- because it will not work out.
No one is flawless, either he is not skilled enough, or this person knows better than him where the killer will start.
"What do you do in the human world?" Bai Yi couldn't help but ask.
"Rice worm," Kwon replied lazily, "no work." β
Bai Yi: "............"
Quan Heng plucked the Buddha beads and smiled silently.
She knew why Bai Yi asked this, but in fact, she didn't know better, but she had been counted and assassinated many times, and she could bring it into the minds of this group of people indiscriminately.
What's more, the most outstanding children in the Shan State concentration camps stayed by her side, and even single-handedly made Quan Heng have an indelible shadow on the word "parent-teacher association".
"There's a room up ahead," Kwon said calmly, "and you should be able to find clues there." β
Bai Yi slowly let go of the hand holding the handle of the knife, and said "um" without being salty.
Twenty minutes, he didn't have to worry about no chance, there was no need to be reckless.
[Huh?] What's the situation, the child's coin is gone! Why didn't he do it?!! ]
[Quit gambling upstairs, hurry up and wash your hands after the reward, okay?] I've seen your ID several times, but I haven't won a bet]
"What's going on?" Liu Wuneng frowned tightly, looking dissatisfied, "He doesn't want a reward?" Or do you think a Sequence B person is scary?! β
"Brother Liu, don't worry, there are many good things to grind, good things to grind," the attendant sitting next to him hurriedly accosted, "The people on the seventh layer pay attention to killing with one hit, probably trying to find a better time." β
Liu Wuneng snorted coldly: "It's best, otherwise Lao Tzu will not be able to let go of this group of cowards who swallow the deposit!" β
Doesn't the empire accept people without looking at their brains?
If you don't start with your back to it, it's clear that you can't get it.
"Kwon Heng...... Can't find a flaw? Tang Junyi's heart moved slightly, "Is this why the director asked me to approach her?" β
-
"Isn't this the same layout as the last fork in the road?" Bai Yi pushed open the door and glanced at it in annoyance, "It's all one room, full of toys and mirrors." β
After a pause, he snorted coldly: "I can't find the map at all." β
Kwon Heng roughly inspected the lower room, and it was indeed the same structure as the previous room, but there was no kaleidoscope that was abruptly placed, and the toys around it also had traces of being rummaged through.
- Most likely, it was the fork in the road that Irina took.
Does this fork in the road come to a room that the player himself didn't pass through, or something else?
If it's just a repetitive room, what's the point of this combined half-team fight?
Even if they form a team, this kind of game of repeated search is not exciting enough, and it is objectively a waste of resources, so it is better to earn emotional points by directly fighting and grabbing.
Unlessβ
There are still clues in this room that have not been found.
Kwon Heng's gaze scanned the corners of the piles of toys, and then swept over the gossip mirrors that were identical in all directions of the dollhouse.
There is no trace of any of these gossip mirrors being moved. Quan Heng thought to himself, if there were no knowledgeable Taoist priests in the team, I was afraid that this game would have to increase the difficulty again.
Quan Heng stretched out his hand to take down the gossip mirror, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and after turning his back on the mirror, it was not an inscription, but a piece of paper folded into the shape of a paper ingot.
"Newspapers?"
Quan Heng knew it in his heart, and took it off and unfolded it-
Front Page Headlines:
"Congratulations on the reopening of the city's Reverse Cross Amusement Park on December 24, 2014!"
Reopening on December 24, 2014?
It seems that the ceremony was to prepare for the reopening of the amusement park.
"A glass gossip mirror?" Bai Yi looked at the things in her hand and barely recognized them, "What is written in the newspaper?" β
"Reverse Cross Amusement Park was reopened in 2014 due to improper operation of the capital chain due to improper operation, and the business is booming, with a turnover of millions in the first week." Kwon Heng put one hand in his pocket and handed him the newspaper with the other.
The million-dollar turnover in 2014 is indeed a big news worthy of headlines.
However, Reverse Cross Paradise is a private company, and the boss is in debt after the capital chain is broken, how can it make a comeback and reach a new high in just two years?
What's more, the most fundamental problem of the amusement park is that the location is not good, and the surrounding facilities are not developed in place around 2014.
The biggest reason for the later fortune was that the government moved the residential area in early 2015, and also moved the commercial area closer to the amusement park, and the surrounding infrastructure and tourist attractions were rapidly developed.
This fundamentally boosted the growth of Dragon City Amusement Park, and quickly squeezed out the two amusement parks that were originally located in the central area from the competition.
But before that, the relevant departments did not take the lead in shifting the central area of the city, and no one heard the news.
Everything is like a sudden reversal of fate, too strange.
Bai Yi finished reading this key point of the newspaper: "The bankruptcy project can turn over so quickly, is it related to the weirdness of this dollhouse?" β
"Perhaps."
Quan Heng answered vaguely and found the gossip mirror disguised in other directions, but unfortunately there were no clues.
"These things are all Taoist things."
Bai Yi casually threw the newspaper aside, his eyes were cold, "What's the effect, won't Song Jingyun tell you?" β
"I think you're wrong about something."
"What?"
Quan Heng turned his head to look at him, and slowly smiled: "You don't need this knowledge of the Dao Sect to know what's strange about this dollhouse." β
Bai Yi's pupils contracted irrepressibly for a moment, and he immediately calmed down: "The nonsense is groundless, and the two games you have played before rely on guessing?" β
"Almost," Kwon Heng groaned slightly, smiling, "It's just luck." β
"But a bounty hunter who doesn't participate in tournaments and doesn't apply for a profession will enter Keneq to meet the "cycle limit"?"
Quan Heng slowly wrapped around the eighteen sons, "Isn't it too unreasonable to say that it's not for a reward?" β
"By the way, who is your employer this time?"
Bai Yi clenched his back molars, his expression tensed unconsciously, and his wrists were slowly raised to touch the double blades.
Quan Heng seemed to be unaware, and suddenly chuckled: "Oh, it's the person in charge of the amusement park." β
"I didn't know until I had an accident."
Her eyes were precipitated and indifferent, her smile only floated lightly on the surface, and there was a darkness hidden in her voice:
"Did you not remember the words 'it's too late'?"
Bai Yi sneered, and instantly drew his knife: "Kill you, and you'll be clean!" β
The double-edged cold light suddenly appeared, and it approached the door of Quan Heng in less than half a second!
β¦β¦
"Hey, what's the situation, Quan Heng is taking the initiative to provoke?"
"Bounty on the human world? What do bounties in the human world have to do with the Borderlands? β
"Quan Heng's wave is completely guiding Bai Yi to fight with her, and those two scimitars are still notoriously sharp, this is ...... Exercising?? β
"God fucking exercise, this is to see that his weapon was not cut by the slashing Yama, so it floated."
"Cut, what's the matter," Liu Wuneng disdained, "Dare to fight the killer solo of the seventh layer?" β
Tang Junyi's face in the back row gradually sank in Quan Heng's conversation, he got up suddenly, took out his mobile phone for special communication and strode out.
"How did you go?" Liu Wuneng's followers were puzzled.
"I'm mad at Quan Heng's brainless operation," Liu Wuneng snorted, "It's not good to suppress such a newcomer who pulls hatred, arrogant, and dares to go against the empire, it's really unreasonable to look for death." β
β¦β¦
Tang Junyi walked out of the viewing platform and walked towards the port, dialing the special communicator as he walked.
This mobile phone is a special item made by a special technology team, which can realize the communication between the day and night border and the human world.
"Hey," the phone was connected, and Nie Cang's voice came out, "What's wrong?" β
"Captain, are you still at Dragon City Amusement Park?"
"At this point, the task force has cordoned off the new campus and is focusing on inspecting the dollhouse."
Nie Cang was in uniform and watched with some tiredness as the task force inspected all over the dollhouse:
"We found anomalous material in the dollhouse, but the contamination was so scattered that it looked like an accidental input of Frontier Pollution. Until now, no heterologs have been identified to cause the contamination. β
"Not an accident!"
Tang Junyi's voice was tense, and the speed of his speech was slightly faster, "It was the person in charge of the Dragon City Amusement Park who deliberately put the alien body to reverse the fortune of the amusement park, and he issued a commission to Scarface on the seventh layer to clear the map and remove the traces of pollution!" β
Nie Cang instantly straightened up, and immediately ordered the team members beside him: "Where is the person in charge of the Dragon City Amusement Park?" Take control of the interrogation now! Be sure to find out the heterologs for me during the best treatment period! β
"Also," Tang Junyi said on the other end of the phone, "there are camouflaged gossip mirrors in the dollhouse, which are usually placed in the four directions of each room, and those mirrors are likely to be the intermediaries for the spread of pollution." β
"Bagua Mirror?" Nie Cang looked at the team members, "Focus on searching the four directions of the dollhouse room to see if there are any gossip mirrors." β
"Yes!" The team was immediately ordered to leave.
"How do you know these things?" Nie Cang asked.
"Kwon Heng has been in Keneq, and the prototype of the map is Dragon City Amusement Park."
βKeneqοΌβ Nie Cang was a little surprised.
"Yes." Tang Junyi pursed his lips, but still confessed truthfully, "And she obviously knows about the Dragon City Amusement Park, I think Quan Heng is deliberately conveying the news to me - she guessed that I would go to her channel and knew my identity." β
"Are you trying to tell me that Quan Heng knows our basic information and operational missions, and also knows the relationship between Dragon City Amusement Park and the Frontier?" Nie Cang repeated in a solemn voice.
"Yes, you don't know that person, as long as you show the slightest bit of a horse's feet, she can catch her." Tang Junyi is not shirking responsibility, but just telling the truth, "But I don't think she will do anything to us, and if our headquarters wants to move to Gujiang, we can still cooperate with her......"
"We'll talk about that later." Nie Cang said sternly, "Don't let your private feelings affect your judgment, remember what you are carrying on your shoulders!" β
ββ¦β¦ Be. Tang Junyi paused, and said, "But when I finish the task, I want to apply to the director for the use of the 'Tai Sui Pupil', which can directly confirm whether there is a problem with Quan Heng...... I still trust my own judgment! β
"Ah...... You young people are really enough, and it's getting harder and harder to manage. Nie Cang raised his forehead, "Whatever you want!" Now that there are players clearing the level, you keep an eye on the game, keep in touch and report in time. β
