"Revenge?"
Lin Sanjiu had no choice but to look around. She was still in the protected garden, but she was no longer on the path that she was on. She was now in a concrete area of about thirty to forty square meters. It was surrounded by a few high walls, and there was no entrance or exit as far as she could see.
It was hard to imagine that the seemingly endless and bottomless dark monster had been living inside these few walls all this while.
"The Mei He you mentioned …" Lin Sanjiu remembered that it was Nagasaki, Mei Peipei's mother. "Where is she?"
Nagasaki raised its head and looked at her. Between the fringe of hair on its forehead and the mask, its eyes looked as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.
"Where else could she be?"
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help looking around again. The concrete area was empty. There was no place for a person to hide.
Her confusion must have shown on her face because Nagasaki stared at her for a few seconds. Suddenly, it raised a finger and said, "Wait."
Lin Sanjiu blinked as she stared at the hand that was still intact.
"You were wandering around the protected garden. You were lying on the ground just now. You seemed to be injured …"
"I was almost swallowed."
"Furthermore, you don't know where Mei He is."
"Of course, how would I know?"
Suddenly, Nagasaki used its only hand to support itself and stood up unsteadily. Lin Sanjiu took half a step back and saw Nagasaki flinging its deformed arm. It panted and said, "You don't know what's going on in this garden, do you?"
Lin Sanjiu was stunned for half a second. Then, her eyes lit up, "You know?"
Nagasaki did not answer. It rolled its eyes and stared at Lin Sanjiu without saying a word. It was as if it wanted to take revenge on her with its eyes.
"You snuck into this garden on purpose, right?"
Thinking about it this way, the answer was very clear. Nagasaki was originally a duoluozhong used for work. It shouldn't have anything to do with this garden. Since it snuck into the Rare Animal Sanctuary for revenge, it must have done some research beforehand. It must know what was going on in this garden. In other words, it must have a way to get out.
"Luckily, I didn't kill it just now."
Seeing that Nagasaki was still silent, Lin Sanjiu looked at its hand. Suddenly, she laughed, "Are you going to kill someone like that? One of your arms is crippled. "
Lin Sanjiu's words immediately twisted Nagashi's face. Just when she couldn't help hissing like a snake, Lin Sanjiu interjected, "I remember that Mei He is a posthuman, right? You have no chance of winning. Even before your arm is crippled, you still have no chance of winning. "
"Is that so?" Chang Zhang-sneered. Her blade-like right arm trembled in the torn fabric of her sleeve, and a cold light flashed. "You know about it again?"
"Of course, I am an evolved person, but you are not."
Luckily, the backpack Silvan gave her was still fastened to her back. Lin Sanjiu reached out and caught a cold, curved handle. Without looking, she pulled it out. It was a pitch-black umbrella that seemed to be made of some kind of metal.
There were many weapons and tools in the bag, and it was the first time she had seen them. Lin Sanjiu wanted to point the umbrella at Nagasaki, but her arm was still numb. In order not to expose the fact that she was still affected by the force field, she lightly touched the tip of the umbrella to the ground.
"I know you hate me. You are probably just behind Mei He and Dimo."
The duoluozhong had completely lost the ability to feel joy, love, and tolerance. There was only endless darkness and violence in their minds. Even if Lin Sanjiu spared Nagasaki's life, it would not feel grateful. Instead, it would hold a grudge. "You are a ticking time bomb. I can easily kill you now, and you will never be able to hurt me again, and you will never be able to take revenge. "
Nagasaki stood motionless on the ground as if it was frozen. It curled its body and stared at Lin Sanjiu.
"Or, we can make a deal." Lin Sanjiu waved the metal umbrella-shaped weapon in her hand and looked at Nagasaki's crippled arm. "Do you see this? It's a product from the Munitions Factory. If we make a deal, it will be yours. "
It wasn't a question that Lin Sanjiu had to consider. After a few seconds, Nagasaki nodded.
"Not bad. Good boy." Lin Sanjiu smiled at it and put away the umbrella-shaped weapon. "I'll keep it until I'm sure I'm out of the Sanctuary."
Nagasaki stared at the weapon as it disappeared into Lin Sanjiu's backpack. It seemed to be forcing itself to suppress its desire. This kind of self-control was rare among the duoluozhong, who were filled with murky desires.
"Tell me, what kind of deal?"
Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment. The first thing she needed to deal with was the effect of the strange force field in the Sanctuary on her. However, she couldn't show any weakness to Nagasaki. She had to beat around the bush to get the answer that she desperately needed.
"First, I want to know what's going on with this Sanctuary."
Nagasaki looked at her and nodded silently. The relationship between the human and the duoluozhong had become very complicated. They had to be wary of each other, but they still had to interact with each other and get what they wanted from each other. They had to tread carefully, as if they were walking on thin ice. For a moment, they were even more polite to each other.
"That's a long story."
While panting, Nagasaki pointed at a corner of the cement ground. It had an irregular shape. There was a dark, lightless corner at the intersection of two high walls. "Let's get out of there first. We can talk as we walk. We can make a deal, but don't delay me. The night is not eternal. "
It only had one night to move around. Lin Sanjiu couldn't have asked for more. She immediately nodded and followed, "Is there an exit?"
"No." Nagasaki's answer surprised Lin Sanjiu. However, Nagasaki continued, "But if we stand there and wait, there might be an exit."
"Oh?" Lin Sanjiu recalled a sentence that she had heard before, "Is it because you want to let the creatures here go for a 'walk'?"
The human and the duoluozhong stopped at the corner. Nagasaki sneered in the shadows.
"Walk?" It seemed to find Lin Sanjiu's words ridiculous. "Where did you hear that?"
