When Bohemia was on her way, the sun had just appeared in the east. After she had a meal, she was sent to bed. Lin Sanjiu was afraid that she would be too tired to do her job properly. Lin Sanjiu was obviously looking down on her.
Besides, Lin Sanjiu was still in the dining hall, discussing something with Silvan until dawn. Wasn't Lin Sanjiu afraid that she would be too tired to do her job properly? Besides, did they have a proper discussion about getting Potential Growth Value from the Astral Plane?
After sleeping for only two hours, Silas tried her best to wake Bohemia up. The sky outside of Exodus was still a gloomy dark blue. The dense green forest was shrouded in a dense fog, and only a vague outline could be seen. It was like a bottomless abyss.
Bohemia looked at the forest beneath her feet. As the cold morning breeze blew past her, she felt a little numb. In the past, he had been able to overcome many difficulties by himself, but now, after living in Exodus for a few days, he felt at ease and relaxed. The worst thing was, after spending so much time with others, he started to feel a little resistant to being alone.
She couldn't go on like this.
"I'd rather not sleep. I'm so sleepy," she complained to Lin Sanjiu, who was walking her out of the door. Fortunately, Silvan wasn't around. She had no idea where that man had gone.
"You'll be fine in a while. This is for you, "Lin Sanjiu ignored her and took out a handful of paper cranes from somewhere. "I took a lot of them so we can keep in touch. You know how to use them, right?"
If she didn't know how to use such a basic communication tool, how miserable must she have been in her previous life?
If Bohemia wasn't still sleepy, she would have started arguing with Lin Sanjiu again. She grabbed the paper cranes and stuffed them into her waist pouch. Then, she turned around and walked down the mountain.
"Remember what I told you!" Lin Sanjiu shouted from behind. She seemed to be very worried about him. "Don't run around on the road. Come back early!"
"I know, I know. You're so annoying!"
Bohemia's stomach full of unhappiness finally calmed down a little when she arrived at Black's Market. She still had some red crystals in her pocket that Lin Sanjiu had given her. It was enough for her to splurge and buy some things that she was reluctant to buy in the past. There was a kind of nail polish from the past world that had been modified by posthumans. Not only could it change its color at will, but it could also create different "illusions" on the nails according to the color. The nail polish was actually not expensive, but it was the first time she was willing to spend money on such a useless thing.
She reached her fingers into the sunlight and felt a distant, moist wind blowing from the blue sea, reflecting the sunlight and the shadows of the palm trees in her eyes. The waves broke into snow-white waves on the beach, and a long cry of a seagull came from somewhere.
After enjoying the sea breeze for a while, Bohemia lowered her eyes and withdrew her hand.
The world she was familiar with rarely showed her such calm kindness as the world of nail polish, the travelogues of the past, or the videos and movies left over from human society.
… My comrades in the offensive and defensive alliance are too stupid and naive.
Bohemia was walking in the crowd. She was surrounded by other posthumans who were busy with their own lives. The medical station several miles away had been invaded by the dungeon, but Black's Market did not seem to be affected at all, nor did it know anything about it. It continued to run on its regular axis every day.
"Don't they know what happened?"
Bohemia frowned. She hesitated, wondering if she should ask an old acquaintance of hers.
"That Yu Yuan didn't meet with danger yesterday," she mumbled to herself, "If he's dead, he would have died a long time ago. If he's alive, he would have been alive by now."
"If I go there half an hour earlier or later, it shouldn't be a big deal, right?
Besides, they need more information now. It shouldn't be a big deal for Lin Sanjiu to know... "
With this thought in mind, Bohemia suddenly bit her lip, feeling a little reluctant. She always did what she wanted to do, never thinking about others. As for the consequences of her actions, she would wait for the consequences to appear, and then she would smash them. When she couldn't smash them, she would run away.
What was wrong with her now? Why did she have to consider whether Lin Sanjiu would be anxious when she went to ask for information?
As if to prove that she was still the same person, Bohemia scanned her surroundings. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she turned around and disappeared into a narrow alley not far away.
The alley was dark and dirty. Half of it was occupied by a few large green trash bins. The garbage and filth produced in the nearby areas would be collected here and collected by the duoluozhong who cleaned the streets. The duoluozhong would then load the garbage into the garbage truck and take it away. The garbage truck emitted a strong stench all year round, as if it was alive. Therefore, almost no posthumans would go there.
Before Bohemia stepped into the puddle of dirty water, she tied up her long and wide sleeves and the corner of her skirt. She twisted her long hair into a strand and held it in her mouth. She held her gypsy-like loose clothes with both hands and walked carefully to a trash bin at the end of the alley.
The trash bin was not completely attached to the brick wall. There was a dark gap between it and the brick wall. She looked into the gap and saw the faint reflection of the dirty water on the ground. Everything looked sticky and rotten. She wrapped her hand with the corner of her shirt and pulled the back of the trash bin. There was enough space for a person to stand in.
From the crack of the wall where a dead rat's tail was stuck, Bohemia counted four bricks from the bottom, two more to the left, and then knocked on the wall... Bohemia loosened the corner of her clothes and waited quietly for a few seconds. Then, with a clatter, the bricks were pulled out from the inside.
"This is a rat farm. Don't disturb us!"
"I'm here to see how fat the rats are," Bohemia bent down and opened her mouth. Her hair fell to the ground as soon as she opened her mouth.
There was silence in the dark hole. Then, the voice asked again, "Do you want to buy rat meat?"
"Yes."
"What are you going to do with it?"
"Barbecue."
A snort came from the hole in the wall. "If you can come in, then come in."
It was going to be tough.
Bohemia hated this part the most. She hated it even more than when she had to pay. She had to put away all the bracelets and chains, shrink her shoulders, shrink herself into a small, tight shape, and squeeze through the dark and dirty hole. Every time, she would put on an old coat, but this time, she had no choice but to let the dark hole tear her skirt.
The width of the hole was just enough for a person of normal size to squeeze through, but the scratches were unbearable. It was as if the people here did not welcome customers at all.
"Not much money."
As soon as her feet touched the ground, before her eyes could adjust to the darkness, Bohemia heard a voice that sounded like a broken bellows not far from her.
"A regular customer," another voice that sounded equally indistinguishable replied.
"A regular customer with low value."
"Safe."
Every time Bohemia came in, they would find out that she did not have much money.
She could not figure out how the twins in the dark did it, just as she could not figure out how they controlled and analyzed most of the information in the Twelve Worlds. She sneered and retorted, "As long as I can pay. Why do you care if I have money or not? You live in the sewers every day. What's the use of money? "
"Oh, it's Bohemia." Even if the mask changed Bohemia's face and voice, her temper could not be concealed by the mask.
Bohemia snorted. Her eyes began to adjust to the darkness.
Red and blue spots of light were scattered in the dark room, flickering from time to time. The square shadows were piled up together, making the place look like a storehouse full of boxes. Two dark figures of about the same size, whose hair could be seen to have not been cut for a long time even in the absence of light, were turning round and round in their shabby chairs.
Although the outside was dirty and smelly, the smell in the room was still bearable. It was just a mixture of body odor, breath, smoke, dust, leftover food, and rat droppings.
"Is it necessary to turn off the lights every time you come in?" Bohemia complained. "I'm a customer after all."
"It's a trade secret," the shadow on the left said.
What a lousy protection method. If it was someone else wearing night vision goggles, all the trade secrets would be exposed … Bohemia thought so, but she did not blurt it out.
"Tell me," the shadow on the right pushed the edge of the table and turned around with the chair, "What do you want to know?"
Bohemia pondered for a moment.
"Can you get any information about the internal affairs of the Twelve Organizations? Even to the internal members, it might be a rather secretive matter. "
"You're looking down on us!" The shadow on the left suddenly turned around.
"You should ask us what information we can't get."
"No, don't ask that question. It's not good for business."
Taking advantage of the pause, Bohemia chimed in, "Let me speak first! I want to know what the internal members of the Twelve Organizations, hmm, preferably the higher-ups, know about the flood and what they plan to do. "
The two chairs stopped moving at the same time. The creaking sound of the old metal slowly faded away in the dark room.
"The flood?" The shadow on the left seemed to be confused.
Could it be that the twins didn't know about the flood?
"Wait," the shadow on the right seemed to have noticed that Bohemia was about to speak, "Don't say anything. Let us analyze the information you revealed in your speech!"
The two of them were really … too abnormal.
