When the paper crane leaped out of the window once again, it seemed to share the anxiety of the sender. It flapped its wings and quickly disappeared into the night. There was no moonlight tonight, and the deathly silent town was fading into the darkness. Lin Sanjiu supported herself against the window until she could no longer see the paper crane. Then, she walked back with a frown.
"You will have wrinkles like this," Qing Jiuliu raised his head and looked at Lin Sanjiu. He used his finger to point between his eyebrows, "I can tell that you don't need moisturizer."
Lin Sanjiu's worried expression froze. She turned to look at him.
No matter what happened, as long as she didn't die immediately, it was like a movie to Qing Jiuliu. Qing Jiuliu, on the other hand, was always a spectator who was not involved in the situation. Even if he was worried, it was just an understatement.
"The wrinkles you have now are fake. If you take good care of them, they can be removed …"
Lin Sanjiu sat down with a straight face as she listened to his advice. Finally, she couldn't help but interrupt him, "Alright, before Cyrus and the others arrive and the dimensional rift arrive, let's take a look at the visas."
Once Cyrus arrived, it wouldn't be appropriate to buy the visas in front of them.
However, this topic wasn't as interesting as "Lin Sanjiu's wrinkles" to Qing Jiuliu. He rested his chin on the bottle of wine and kept his mouth shut.
Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath. She picked up [eBay] and quickly entered the item page.
For security reasons, most of the items did not have pictures. However, when she looked around, she immediately found the "visa" that Ji Shanqing had mentioned. There was a virtual image of a visa to the world of "Babel" hanging on this item.
The "Babel" visa was hanging on the top of the list of available items. It seemed to be a popular item recently. Lin Sanjiu clicked on it and saw four transaction records.
"I have an agency relationship with many Consular Officers. I have a wide variety of visas, a stable supply, and a reasonable price. I didn't know there was such a profession?" Lin Sanjiu mumbled, "Currently, I have 'Babel', 'Red Nautilus', and 'Tenderloin'. If you are interested, please click on 'Buy' and tell me the type of visa."
"Huh? They don't have 'Heaven Underworld'?" The grand prize was disappointed.
"That's not all," Lin Sanjiu continued, "If you have any special visa requirements, please leave me a message through eBay. I will check it for you as soon as possible. Also, I don't accept face-to-face transactions. eBay shipping fees will be paid by the buyer. "
"That's quite cunning," Qing Jiuliu muttered. "I was just thinking about it. Who am I supposed to cry to if I get tricked into coming out and snatch everything clean?"
Lin Sanjiu did not reply. Her eyeballs were flickering. She was probably trying to leave a message for the seller.
"Are their visas expensive?" Ji Shanqing looked at the few useless visas in his hand and felt a little heartache. "Why don't we sell these as well? It's such a waste …"
It didn't take long for Lin Sanjiu to reply to the message. Soon, she opened her eyes. She said, "Alright." Then, she replied, "The price is indeed fair. Other than the visa for Red Nautilus, the other two D-class worlds only need one Special Item, and it doesn't have to be combat-oriented. "
Then, she picked up a visa from the table and smiled at the grand prize, "Let me think about how to sell this product."
Lin Sanjiu glanced at the visa and closed her eyes. Suddenly, she froze, "Huh?"
Qing Jiuliu and the grand prize looked up at the same time.
Lin Sanjiu was still holding the plastic letter tightly. She did not move it, but her brows gradually furrowed. A puzzled look appeared on her face.
"What's wrong?" Ji Shanqing asked.
Lin Sanjiu did not say anything. She pursed her lips. The next second, she opened her eyes abruptly. For some reason, there was something wrong with her expression. She quickly glanced at the visa on the table and then looked at the grand prize. Her brows were tightly knitted together.
"Say something," Qing Jiuliu leaned beside her and knocked on the table as if he had lost his patience with the show.
"I saw a few words on the page of the visa," Lin Sanjiu said hesitantly, "I don't know if I'm overthinking …"
As she said that, she grabbed Qing Jiuliu's hand and stuffed the plastic letter into it.
The page that Qing Jiuliu entered was the page that Lin Sanjiu had just left. After closing his eyes for about ten seconds, Qing Jiuliu opened his eyes again and looked at the grand prize.
"Why are you guys looking at me?" Ji Shanqing asked with a perplexed expression.
"That …" Qing Jiuliu sucked in a breath of cold air. He leaned closer to Ji Shanqing, "The person who sells the visa is from the same world as us."
Lin Sanjiu nodded. Her grim expression did not loosen at all.
"So what?"
"I don't know why, but he added a sentence at the bottom of the product page," Lin Sanjiu said as calmly as she could. Lin Sanjiu tried her best to speak calmly, "Due to certain reasons, my consular officer has never and will never issue a visa to the Olympic World."
Under the candlelight, the grand prize blinked his large and clear eyes.
In the next second, he jumped up from his seat. "Ah!"
"It seems that you remember now," Qing Jiuliu nodded and leaned back on the chair.
The grand prize's rosy lips were slightly parted. Even the orange-red candlelight couldn't hide the paleness of his face.
No matter how one looked at it, it didn't seem like the words were meant for the buyer.
"Cyrus and the others said that the female Consular Officer who approached them was killed that night after she issued a visa to the Olympic World to prove her identity," the grand prize murmured to himself. After a while, he sat down again. "If this is just a coincidence, it would be hard to explain the words of the visa agent."
"Regardless of whether he is really a visa agent or a consular officer who just wants to hide his identity," Qing Jiuliu lit another cigarette and said softly amidst the lingering white smoke, "It is obvious that he noticed something. In Meat Elysium, consular officers are constantly being hunted."
"And it seems that the only reason why these consular officers are being hunted is because they have issued a visa to the Olympic World," Lin Sanjiu sighed and added.
As soon as she finished speaking, the three of them couldn't help but look at the table.
Under the flickering candlelight, the visa with the word "Olympic" written on it was lying on the table. The edge of the visa had a faint metallic glow.
"I have already issued it," the grand prize's voice sounded a little bitter.
The living room fell silent for a few seconds. A few candlelight spots floated in the darkness.
"So what if it's opened? What's there to be afraid of?" Lin Sanjiu pushed the table and stood up. "It's fine if that guy doesn't come. Since he is here, he can't go back. We need someone to answer for Carrot Lo's death."
Lin Sanjiu glanced at the two of them and calmed herself down. "I will distribute the few Special Items I got just now. Remember, you must always carry them with you at all times —" Lin Sanjiu looked at Qing Jiuliu, "Also, don't split up tonight. Wait for Cyrus and the others to come."
As she said that, she took out the last three Special Items that she had hastily converted into cards.
[My Hand That Goes Through Your Black Hair]
Just as the lyrics described, this item can provide the owner with a chance to "go through the enemy's black hair". Regardless of the position of the two parties and the situation of the battle, once this item is activated, it can ignore all laws of physics and make the owner's hand appear behind the enemy's head.
Note: 1. This item will only take effect when the owner can see that the enemy has natural black hair.
2. Since the owner of the song doesn't have any weapons in his hand, he can't hold any weapons when using this item.
3. The time limit for you to put your hand on your head is 1.5 seconds. If your surname is Lo, the time limit will be extended to 2.5 seconds.
"Carrot Lo's surname must be Lo," the grand prize mumbled, "That's why he left this thing behind."
[Beef Noodle Soup]
If you pour hot water into the bowl before eating, a bowl of instant noodle soup will appear, just like the poster. After you finish eating, you can pour the soup away and add water into the empty bowl to continue eating. One day, when you're tired of eating it, this item will completely lose its effect.
"The more you need a battle item, the less it will be available," Qing Jiuliu said sarcastically as he crossed his arms.
A strange expression appeared on Lin Sanjiu's face. Then, she pushed the third card in front of him.
[Battle Item]
[What the hell is this? Hmm, it's hard to tell.] Its effect is that it can temporarily transform into the appearance of another Special Item and have the general function of that Special Item. But if you say that it's plagiarism, we won't admit it. Due to the influence of the wisdom of our predecessors, we created something with a similar style. Isn't that normal?
You guys don't understand. In the world of Special Items, "homage" and "collision" are very common phenomena. The reason why we chose such an inconspicuous name is because we don't want people to misunderstand.]
[Note: 1. The owner of the item must clearly and comprehensively describe the other Special Item in their mind. Only then can the [Battle Item] imitate that Special Item.
2. The duration of each imitation will be halved based on the basic usage of the copied Special Item.
3. If you have already imitated something once, you can't imitate it again. You can't just focus on a single sheep.
4. Just like I said, the Special Item only has a 'similar' function. If you find anything different or unsatisfactory, you don't have the right to explain. You will have to bear the consequences.
"This item …" The grand prize widened his eyes, "Carrot Lo actually has such an item?"
To be honest, every single one of the other nine Special Items was precious. However, compared to this [Battle Item], they were nothing. From a certain point of view, this item was tailor-made for Lin Sanjiu. There were thousands of Special Items recorded in the thick book she got from Red Nautilus!
Lin Sanjiu gave the birdcage and [My Hand That Runs Through Your Black Hair] to the grand prize and [The Mountains Remove The Foolish Old Man] to Qing Jiuliu. Lin Sanjiu kept the rest of the Special Items for the time being. With this, no matter who the Consular Officer killer appeared in front of, they would at least have a fighting chance.
When they were done with all the necessary preparations, the candles burned out. The few of them sat in the dark for a while, feeling bored. Once they calmed down, the tiredness from the past few days washed over them like a wave. Ever since they left the camping area, they barely had any rest. Nobody knew if the killer would come or when he would come, so they couldn't just sit around and wait. After discussing for a while, they decided to take turns resting in the master bedroom.
Holding the [Ability Polishing Agent] as a light source, Lin Sanjiu was the last one to enter the master bedroom. The dim silver light swayed in front of her as she walked. Her field of vision swayed along with her footsteps. The furniture and the house were lit up, but behind the light was a deeper darkness.
Somehow, this feeling made her feel even more uneasy. Lin Sanjiu put the [Ability Polishing Agent] away.
"Sis, are we going to sleep together?" The moment she closed the bedroom door, the grand prize sounded like a child going camping for the first time. His voice was light and airy in the darkness.
Lin Sanjiu smiled and groped her way to the big bed. Just as she reached the edge of the bed, she paused.
Just like before, the grand prize and Qing Jiuliu each took one side of the bed. However, there was a dark figure lying between them with a pair of white eyes.
"So, what the grand prize said wasn't a suggestion but a rhetorical question."
