At night.
After a busy day, Hayashi River returned home and immediately felt that something was wrong.
There was explosive music coming from the room, as well as rhythmic meowing …
He walked into the cat house and saw the scene inside. Hayashi River: "Σ (° △ ° | | |)?"
He saw the Blue Kitty wearing a leather suit, a black leather hat, and aviator sunglasses. Its little paws swayed left and right as it glided to the music.
This music was a popular song in the Mechanical Hive. In Mechanical City, people loved to listen to this kind of explosive music.
Whoosh …
On the floor, the little cat glided here and there. It even stood up straight and performed a one-legged spin.
"Master … come on … let's dance together … let's have fun together …"
The Blue Kitty meowed and showed its cheerful dance. It fell in love with this explosive melody.
Hayashi River was furious. It was fine that he lived in such a simple room, but after a hard day, he saw the little cat dancing at home. This life was too different.
"Little Meow, you disappoint me. You really disappoint me. Didn't you say that you wanted to learn knowledge? Didn't you say you wanted to improve! "Hayashi River angrily criticized.
"Meow …"
The little cat stopped and turned off the music. It drooped its head and looked sad. It typed on the light screen. "The knowledge is too difficult. Master is busy with his own things. I can't learn it by myself!
"Besides, Master left a cat at home and didn't care about it. Sister Yi Xing also went to other places for meetings. She's lonely … "
Looking at the little cat's sad face, Hayashi River curled his lips. Although he knew the little cat was pretending, he really didn't bring it around much during this period.
"Alright then. I'm going to the black market tonight. I'll take you to eat and have fun. "
Hayashi River had thought about the location of the Withered Square during the day. He should get some information from the intelligence merchants in the black market.
"Meow …" The Blue Kitty meowed repeatedly. It was very excited. It could finally go out and have fun.
Hayashi River packed up and left with the Blue Kitty.
…
The night view of the mechanical hive was very beautiful. Hayashi River's apartment was located in the center of the city. When he walked out of the building and looked up, he would see a dome formed by countless mechanical workshops. The lights were shining brightly, making it seem like it was daytime.
This was a city that never slept, and it carried the dreams of countless powerhouses and Mechanics.
Of course, there were also countless people who dreamed of getting rich. There were many ways to earn money in this city of machinery, such as the black market, the machinery cavern …
Walking on the road of the residential area, he saw a girl walking slowly toward the gate of the residential area under the light of another road.
She was a short-haired stewardess in white casual clothes and white sneakers. She had a beautiful face under her short hair.
"Hmm …"
Hayashi River was a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet this girl here.
Mu Qian also saw Hayashi River. She was also very surprised, but then she understood. The direction Hayashi River came from was the best residential area in the mechanical hive. It was very normal for this young man to live there.
"Sir. Hello. "
Since they had met, Mu Qian naturally wouldn't pretend that she didn't know them. She was a straightforward person and greeted them with a smile.
"Beauty. We meet again. "Hayashi River smiled. He had a deep impression of this girl's special drink.
Looking at the fatigue on Hayashi River's face, Mu Qian felt sympathetic. It wasn't easy for anyone! She didn't know if this young man's body could take it. Among the major races, the human race's physique was considered to be the weakest.
"Meow …"
In his pocket, Blue Kitty poked its head out and meowed obediently. This immediately caused Mu Qian to exclaim uncontrollably. That soft voice had a slight tremble to it, making one feel a little cold.
"Meow … Ah … Master, who can resist my charm!?"
Lan Xiaomiao glanced at Lin Chuan and gave him a look that said, "* (̄) ̄) *"
Hayashi River was secretly helpless. This little thing was really too arrogant …
Then, the two of them walked side by side. Mu Qian teased the little guy from time to time, wishing that she could hold it in her hands.
"Are you very familiar with the mechanical hive?" Hayashi River was a little surprised.
He originally thought that Mu Qian's residence was in the Split Scale Commandery. He didn't expect that she would live here for a long time.
However, Hayashi River was a little puzzled. He felt that the way this girl looked at him had a different meaning.
It wasn't the kind of favorable impression of the opposite sex, but a kind of indescribable, strange look.
This was the first time Hayashi River had met someone of the opposite sex who looked at him with this kind of look.
"My brother works in the mechanical hive. I became a flight attendant after graduating from the academy, so I moved here. It's been two years, "Mu Qian said.
Hayashi River's interest was instantly piqued. He asked about the interesting places in the mechanical city, the good food, the fun places, the scenic spots, and so on …
Of course, the reason why he asked so many questions was because of the Withered Square.
Unfortunately, none of the scenic spots that Mu Qian mentioned fit the description.
"Mr. Hayashi River, let me treat you to dinner. Let me treat you to dinner to thank you for helping me on the airship. I know a good place. "Mu Qian said with a smile.
Hayashi River was stunned. He noticed the girl's gaze and knew that he could freeload off another cat meal.
The place that Mu Qian mentioned was at the intersection of the black market and the mechanical cavern. It was a small shop that had been modified from a small abandoned mechanical workshop.
The private room was filled with delicacies. There were palm-sized blue-shelled prawns, oysters from the Moonlight Sea, roasted chives the size of green onions, and roasted steel-back goat loin from the White Dwarf Kingdom …
Looking at the table full of testosterone-filled dishes, Hayashi River looked at Mu Qian. Was this a hint for a one-night stand?
Noticing Hayashi River's gaze, Mu Qian blushed and whispered, "That day at the airship station, I saw you with Miss Yi Xing from the Blue Star Conglomerate …"
Hayashi River looked at the table of dishes and suddenly understood something. (ー `′ ー)
"Don't be embarrassed. This is normal. You have to pay to make a living. "Mu Qian nodded in understanding.
"Sister Yi Xing and I are not in that kind of relationship," Hayashi River said.
"I understand."
Mu Qian nodded and gave him a look that said "I understand", indicating that she was not a talkative person.
Then, she said, "These dishes are very suitable for you men. Eat more! You can come often in the future. "
Hayashi River looked at the table of dishes and could not eat anymore. It was not that he had been misunderstood, but that he was full of energy and did not need to eat at all.
Beside him, the Blue Kitty was eating the roasted fish obediently. The little fellow's face twitched from time to time, revealing its inner thoughts.
After finishing this manly dinner and bidding farewell to Mu Qian, Hayashi River followed the map and headed to the black market of the mechanical hive.
Halfway there, Hayashi River had already completed his disguise. He once again turned into a young white werewolf in a trench coat. He had a somewhat dispirited and melancholic temperament.
…
The black market of the mechanical hive was located in the first underground level.
In fact, the so-called first underground level was not really underground.
This city was in the shape of an oval, and it was completely made up of machinery. The ground was actually in the middle and lower part of the oval.
Unlike other places, the black market here was not hidden. The entire first underground level was half a black market.
Hayashi River pushed open the door of a small room. This was the intelligence room with the highest credibility in the black market.
When he was in White Arrow Harbor, Hayashi River had been a black market bounty hunter a few times. He had obtained the location of this intelligence room from the forum.
This room was very dark. Under the dim light, there was only a table with a light screen on it.
A figure sat there. His face could not be seen clearly. It was very mysterious.
"Hmm. Looks like this intelligence room is quite something. "
Hayashi River looked around and his gaze landed on the owner of the intelligence room. He used [Materialized Mental Energy] to investigate, but he could not see the person's face clearly.
To be precise, the figure's face was wearing a mask. It was a ruddy pig's face.
There were nearly a hundred interference and shielding mechanical devices in the surroundings. There were also some devices that were very hidden. They were probably attack, defense, and escape devices.
The cost of such an intelligence room alone was shocking.
The owner of this intelligence room was nicknamed Black Rabbit.
According to the bounty hunter forum, this intelligence merchant had a wide range of business. Not only did he peddle intelligence, but he also took on all kinds of fake identities, smuggling, assassinations, armaments, and so on. He also peddled contraband.
"Welcome. What do you need? "In the dim light, Black Rabbit spoke. His voice was a neutral synthetic voice.
Hayashi River sat down and took out a stack of green crystal coins. It was about a million gold coins.
"I want to know something interesting about the mechanical hive. It's only about this city …" Hayashi River said.
In the shadows, Black Rabbit looked at the stack of green crystal coins and then at the White Werewolf in front of him.
In Black Rabbit's eyes, this White Werewolf was very mysterious. At least, the hundreds of detectors in the intelligence room did not show any images.
"Looks like … he's a big customer."
Black Rabbit raised his hand and made an elegant gesture with his black glove. "There are many interesting things about the mechanical hive. However, if it's worth this price, there are only two places. One is the secret in the depths of the mechanical cavern, and the other is in the first underground level — Deadbone Moss Tower."
Hayashi River took out 100,000 green crystal coins and pushed them over. He knew the rules. This was a deposit.
Ding!
Black Rabbit pressed a button on the table. A three-dimensional projection of the mechanical hive appeared. It was different from the map that Hayashi River was looking for.
This three-dimensional light and shadow marked every secret location in this Machinery City, and even the names of the shops could be seen.
He could even zoom in on the location with his hand.
Hayashi River's eyes moved slightly. He saw the location of Deadbone Moss Tower in the first underground level. There was a name on it — Withering Square.
"Tell me about it …" Hayashi River said.
