"You're looking at me, right?"
The face that looked like a strange bird outside the window curled into a sinister smile, as if something good had happened. It danced happily outside the window.
"You're looking at me!"
"You're looking at me!"
"You're looking at me …"
His head spun wildly around his neck in excitement. Through the window, he looked at Yuan Zhao hungrily and screamed, "You're looking at me!"
Yuan Zhao seemed to be possessed by a nightmare.
He was frozen in place.
He couldn't move.
Only his heart had finally sunk to the bottom of the valley.
Outside the window, the slender figure that was half man half bird screamed excitedly. It suddenly closed its body and threw itself into the window.
Then, it exploded into a mass of blood in the air.
From between a large mouth that suddenly appeared.
Bang!
Then, crunch, crunch, crunch …
The strange bird was chewed into mud between the curved horns on the face that was covered in age spots and scars. It was swallowed into a long neck that seemed to have no end.
Finally, on the old face, the pair of eyes that were covered in white clouds turned around, causing Yuan Zhao to collapse to the ground.
"Hungry … still … hungry …"
That voice seemed to have heard it somewhere before. The gloomy and cold face stared straight at Yuan Zhao's appearance, and the voice was hoarse: "Have … a good … sleep … guest … otherwise … you will … be … eaten …"
Then, the long neck and head slowly shrank back.
It was impossible to see where it went.
Only the pale and cold moonlight shone through the corner of the curtain, falling on Yuan Zhao's bloodless face.
In the silence, the string of reason that was riddled with holes finally snapped.
Yuan Zhao fell on his back and fainted on the spot.
.
.
It had been a long time since he slept so well. It was rare to have a good dream.
After Huai Shi woke up, he found that his whole body was extremely relaxed, as if he had been reborn.
Moreover, the wound on his chest had already healed?
His chest had been pierced by a sniper rifle, but it healed overnight. Wasn't this too illogical?
In addition to the vitality provided by the large amount of green plants and the emergency repair of the Silver Blood Medicine, the dinner last night also played an important role. The quality was quite pure …
It was just that Yuan Zhao's half-dead face looked exceptionally dejected.
"What's with your gloomy face?"
"It's a long story …"
Yuan Zhao looked as if he couldn't bear to look back on the past. He followed behind Huai Shi dejectedly, but he didn't have the feeling of a chuunibyou yesterday. After that, he made people feel a little more comfortable to get along with.
By the time they finished washing up, breakfast was already prepared.
A few exquisite side dishes were paired with the rice, and there was also a rather delicious miso soup.
The old lady's culinary skills were not inferior to his. Huai Shi was amazed.
"When this old one was young, I was also a general of a banquet hall." When the old lady mentioned this, she immediately covered her mouth and laughed softly. "Yes, I'm old now. I can't be compared to back then."
After the meal, Huai Shi felt that it was time for him to leave. The old lady didn't say much. She just walked the two of them to the door, then took out an envelope from the entrance and handed it to them.
"This is what Lina's father brought home last time. It should be useful for an outsider like you, but it's not safe here, so please be careful."
Huai Shi received it. After opening it, he found that there were two unfamiliar badges inside. It seemed to be a work certificate somewhere. Then, he felt the mission panel vibrate, and a new mission suddenly appeared.
[Obtained relevant clues, the mission chain is activated.]
[Current mission [Road to STAFF] – Within 24 hours, go to Kitten Paradise, pass the interview, and become an official employee.]
Kitten Paradise?
What is that place?
It feels very deja vu …
But Huai Shi couldn't tell. When he picked up the ticket, he vaguely felt a cold gaze looking at him. He raised the lawyer's letter and looked at it from afar. If there was a slight mistake, it would fall on him …
After giving one to Yuan Su, Huai Shi expressed her gratitude to the old man.
"These are all things that you don't need. Don't worry about it."
The old lady smiled and handed over a paper bag.
"And this, it was prepared by Lina's child for you to use on the road. Please accept it. That child stayed up all night to prepare it for a long time."
Inside the paper bag was a pink lunchbox, which looked quite cute.
Under the lunchbox, there were actually several magazines?
Huai Shi touched it casually, and a message appeared on the system panel – Universal Magazine, can be equipped on any gun. The number of bullets varies according to the caliber, and it will be replenished every three hours.
It turned out to be a gold equipment!
Huai Shi was dumbfounded. She subconsciously raised her head and looked upstairs. Behind the window, the curtains were suddenly pulled shut, but they were trembling slightly in unease.
After a long time, Huai Shi withdrew his gaze and sighed.
"Thank Miss Lina for me, but I'm just an outsider …"
"I know."
The old lady interrupted him, and a smile appeared on her old face. "What a handsome young man, and so considerate. If it was a few decades ago, this old lady would also be tempted."
"Thank you for being so gentle to my granddaughter."
She took a step forward, tiptoed, and gently straightened Huai Shi's collar and smoothed the wrinkles on his shoulders. Then, she slowly retreated behind the door of the small courtyard, smiled, and bowed to say goodbye.
"Mr. Huai Shi, I wish you a safe journey."
The sky gradually brightened. Even though there was no sun or stars, a faint light still emerged from the city in the darkness, distinguishing between 'day' and 'night'.
Under the faint morning light, the scene in front of him became illusory and fleeting.
It was as if it was rapidly moving to the outskirts.
Huai Shi saw that the entire house quickly dissipated, and only a wasteland remained in place. The memories of last night were like a dream bubble, becoming exceptionally unreal.
"The house, the house … the house is gone!" Yuan Zhao widened his eyes in disbelief.
"I saw it."
Huai Shi angrily patted the back of his head … You don't say, the back of this naughty kid's head is quite nice to touch. I'll find a chance to pat it a few more times in the future.
"Well, don't look anymore, we should also set off."
Before Yuan Zhao reacted and got angry, Huai Shi changed the topic. "Next, I gave you the badge, are you going to find your companions in the Social Security Bureau?"
Yuan Zhao took the badge and hesitated for a moment. "I signed up myself, I didn't go with them."
"I can see that."
Huai Shi shook his head. If this guy was less chuunibyou and chose to go with the Social Security Bureau, he wouldn't have fallen to this extent.
"Then, do you want to go with me?" Huai Shi asked.
"With you?!"
Yuan Zhao froze for a moment and unconsciously raised his voice, sizing up Huai Shi in front of him …
Indeed, this guy's skill is a little bit better than mine, and he has a good relationship with the demons and ghosts here. For the time being, he can be considered to be of help to me. En, although his face is a little effeminate, it's still acceptable. After all, not everyone can be as handsome as me.
Although he wants to snatch my cousin, but … doesn't this prove that my cousin is very charming!
Moreover, it's still unknown who will win her!
Yuan Zhao had completely forgotten the sadness he felt two days ago when he had to make several keys. He looked at Huai Shi for a long time, and his expression became arrogant again. "That's not impossible, but who's going to listen to who?"
"You're kidding."
Huai Shi showed a kind smile. "Of course I'll listen to you."
Otherwise, where can I find another iron-headed, reckless, and gullible little brother like him?
"Then I reluctantly agree."
Yuan Zhao coldly snorted and walked to the front. "Don't drag me down."
"Okay, okay."
Huai Shi smiled and followed behind him, once again walking into the dangerous city ahead.
En, should I tell him that he went the wrong way?
Forget it, I'll let him be proud for a while …
In the same place, on the barren plain, a black old cat stood quietly in the same place, staring at their backs.
It seemed to be smiling.
The two tails on its back shook slightly.
.
Such a long, bloody, and terrifying night, but with the acceleration of the Xinyue Framework, it only took a short hour outside the field.
Even so, in this one hour, countless thrillers that could only be seen in horror movies played out one after another.
Under the malicious editing and editing of the Harken, it became a story of blood and tears.
Those who dared to ignore the system's warning and wander around at night because of their skills were either directly destroyed by the horrifying scenes of a hundred ghosts' night, becoming delicious dishes at banquets, or being trampled on by the terrifying monsters that only appeared in urban legends in the corners of the city.
Even the Ascended who found a place to stay had to endure the test and selection of the Incarnate Deities.
In just one night, more than 2,000 contestants ushered in a mental breakdown after being trampled on. In the end, they became the monsters' delicacies.
Tragic exits.
Even the contestants from the major organizations that had been prepared for a long time suffered a lot of losses.
However, in the editing of the director's room, between the various scenes of ghosts swallowing people alive, there was a mocking scene of a cowherd and a family of ghosts getting along harmoniously as if they were returning home. Not only was the audience dumbfounded, but even the viewing room in the special seats was filled with an indescribable awkward atmosphere.
The deputy minister of the Jinling branch felt like his entire body was in a mess …
What the f * ck is a ghost family!
Who introduced this kind of genius that could even instantly conquer a woman with a split mouth? The Astronomy Society really picked up a ghost!
Fortunately, it wasn't him who picked up the ghost.
On the screen of the live broadcast, there was a scene of a reluctant parting.
"Big sister, drink!"
"Big sister smokes, this is awesome!"
"Go away, big sister doesn't smoke! Big sister, come and take this, this is the honeydew melon I planted in the mountains … "
"Big sister, I'll give you this, I got it from a little bug …"
On the screen, the originally majestic group of ghosts nodded their heads and bowed like grandchildren, surrounding a woman, asking about her well-being, and hurriedly handing over all kinds of good things.
The woman just smiled and took one by one, finally, she picked up a strange small statue that looked like a doll made of plastic, wearing very little cloth, and had a pair of big 2D eyes …
"What is this?"
"I think it's something that little bug calls a figurine." Green Ghost lowered his body and hurriedly replied, "It's said to be a certificate to go to Autumn Leaf Plain, big sister will definitely need it."
"Oh, really? Then I'll take it. "
The woman named Luo Xian smiled and put it in her cloth bag, tiptoed, and patted his head to show her gratitude. Green Ghost's whole body was paralyzed on the ground, he didn't dare to move, like a dog, making it easier for big sister to touch him.
"Then, everyone has to go back, I have to go too."
She smiled and said goodbye to the ghosts in front of her, "Have you all learned how to knit sweaters? When you go back, practice hard. "
The group of ghosts nodded like they were pounding garlic, each of them holding the wool balls and sweater needles given by big sister, looking like they were dedicating their lives to sweaters, staring at Luo Xian as she turned and left.
After Luo Xian left, they collapsed on the ground one by one, as if they had just been saved from a disaster, and cried loudly with tears in their eyes, disappearing into the inexplicable faint light that represented 'dawn'.
Ah, to a certain extent, it was really a frightening night …
