Chapter 12, Act 2. "A Walk" After Dinner

Chapter 12 No.12 Scene. "Walk" after dinner

Starlight is like water.

The night in Jingjiang is peaceful and pleasant.

The evening wind in early autumn still carried a bit of summer heat, but it finally swept away the dull and humid air, making Baige feel a chill.

He raised his head slightly and looked at the night sky.

That is, under the illumination of the city lights, the stars are still dazzling.

The brightness of each star is extremely bright, and stars of different colors are dotted in the obsidian-like night sky, forming a Milky Way across the sky.

However, Baige was unable to find any traces of the "constellations" that had been recorded in history books among these stars.

These scattered stars constitute an ocean of stars that only belongs to this era.

"[Night sky]."

Seeing Bai Ge staring at the night sky, Ai Lian spoke.

"You should know."

"Ah."

Bai Ge turned his eyes slightly from the quiet night sky to the black-haired girl in a dress beside him, and then looked forward.

This is a slightly depressed commercial street.

By the roadside, the office workers returning late are in a hurry, the leisurely men are jogging with their golden retriever dogs, and there are some families who have dinner late, calling for their children.

"This starry sky is fake."

Pulling his attention away from those trivial daily routines, Bai Ge knew that what he was walking now was a "non-daily" road.

"Yes, the abyssal relic of [natural disaster level], [Night Sky] is said to be left by humans in the old era, but with our current technology, it cannot be analyzed, interfered with, or contained."

Although Ai Lian's body is heavy, but at this moment she walks lightly, like a nightingale.

"It is precisely because of the existence of [Night Curtain Sky] that the institutions governing and managing the ascended are the major observatories and their subordinate Abyssal Relics Affairs Department."

"Is the star who loves you also on this?"

Bai Ge suddenly asked, and then felt that this question was a bit stupid.

Ai Lian is an alchemy puppet, an alchemy puppet, which is not human in nature, so naturally it cannot be an ascender, a star, etc., there is no way to talk about it.

Probably because Ai Lian really didn't look like a doll, so Bai Ge subconsciously asked this question.

"Of course I'm not here, are you stupid?"

Ai Lian glanced at Bai Ge with disdain.

"Each star on [Night Sky] represents an ascended person who has reached the second level of the chain of ascension [Ren Xia's Trace]. These stars are said to reveal the fate of the ascended person. The star grid of the author..."

In the middle of her speech, she suddenly lost her voice.

Bai Ge was startled suddenly, thinking that something happened, but turned around, only to find that the young lady was parked outside the roadside milk tea dessert shop, staring at the ice cream, unable to take her eyes off.

"Didn't you just eat it?"

Bai Ge came to Ai Lian, a little curious.

This alchemy doll is too big for a stomach king.

If she goes to eat and broadcast, she must be very popular.

"Brother, we are about to close the stall. Ten yuan and four balls, buy one for your girlfriend?"

The man in the clerk's uniform was very good at doing business, and pointed to the price tag next to him.

The original price was 15 yuan for four scoops of ice cream, and it is already ten past eight o'clock in the evening. Even if the place is in decline, it is really not the time to close the stall.

Probably just a whim of the clerk.

When Ai Lian heard it, she immediately became excited.

"I want chocolate, mango, rum and matcha!"

She skillfully pointed to the ice cream of different colors in the freezer, and didn't care what the clerk called Bai Ge's girlfriend.

Was this woman premeditated?

While the clerk was busy digging ice cream balls, Ai Lian turned to look at Bai Ge again.

"My wallet is not on this dress."

"...Forget it, it's only ten yuan."

Bai Ge was speechless, took out his mobile phone and scanned the QR code for the clerk, and then suddenly remembered something.

...In what era, where is there still a wallet!

He watched Ai Lian happily accept the ice cream, sitting at the outdoor tables and chairs outside the store, eating while playing with his mobile phone, and felt deeply that he seemed to be cheated again.

Sure enough, the more beautiful a woman is, the more deceitful she is.

"Why, if you want to eat, buy it yourself, I won't share it with you."

Seeing that Bai Ge was staring at her, Ai Lian moved the ice cream in her hand to one side of her body, like a cat protecting food.

"I just talked about the star grid. It is said that these stars are closely related to the ascended person. It is possible to predict the situation of the ascended person by observing the starry sky. Is it true?"

Compared with ice cream, Bai Ge is more curious about the knowledge of love.

"Well, of course... woo, it's so cold!"

Ai Lian put a scoop of chocolate-flavored ice cream into her mouth, immediately narrowed her eyes, and waited for a while before continuing.

"...The promotion of the ascended person, the activities related to fate, and death will all be reflected in the [Night Sky], a few days ago, when the demigod in the extreme north was promoted, you should also see Play the news."

She lifted the spoon and pointed to the northern night sky.

There, there is indeed a star shining brightly, and this is the star representing [Evening Evening Bell] Dmitry Sergeyevich.

"Fifty-two years ago, when the lord of the Zhuxia Federation was promoted to the seventh rank, it was said that the blue stars were clearly visible even in the daytime. For a month, the dazzling blue stars had been hanging high above On the heads of the people, in this way, Zhu Xia's position among the various forces is truly established, of course, we may hardly see that scene."

After Ai Lian got used to the temperature of the ice cream, she ate it faster and faster, cleaning up the four balls in the cup.

This guy seems to have eaten three bowls for dinner.

The girl said that she has a stomach dedicated to holding sweets. You are right, your alchemy doll also has it?

"Satisfied, it's time to work."

Ai Lian stood up and threw the paper cup into the trash can by the side of the road.

"In general, the eye color of the upgrader will change according to the prototype it is in, and its star grid will also show a similar color. This is also the origin of the name of the upgrade rainbow. As for the shadow prototype, I remember it is... black Bar."

She turned around suddenly, and brought her face closer to Baige's. Her big eyes carefully looked at Baige's pupils. Being watched like this made Baige a little embarrassed.

As for characteristics, everyone on Zhu Xia's side has black hair and black eyes, and so is Bai Ge.

"It doesn't make any difference."

Ai Lian turned around and sighed without any regret.

Bai Ge froze for a moment before following the other party's footsteps.

"Working means patrolling like this? Are we going to catch the ascended person from yesterday?"

He couldn't help asking.

The two chatted without saying a word, and before they knew it, they came to the alley next to the commercial street.

There are several factories that have stopped working here, as well as warehouses and so on. Because it is on the bank of the Jingjiang River, there is also a small dock for unloading.

In the past, this area was connected with the commercial street, the residential area near Ailianjia, and the school, and it was regarded as an industrial and living area.

It is said that this place is haunted at night, and more than one person claimed that the machine that should have stopped working a long time ago started to move in the middle of the night, but these are just rumors, gossip after dinner.

Bai Ge checked the time. At nine o'clock in the evening, he and Ai Lian had already walked away for almost an hour and a half.

Is this the leisure time after dinner?

Just as he was about to ask what he was doing here, he saw Ai Lian put his finger in front of his mouth and made a hissing gesture.

"Look ahead."

Ai Lian raised her other finger and pointed to a certain factory building ahead.

It was dark here, only the stars were shining, Bai Ge looked over in a daze, and saw that there seemed to be faint and flickering lights in the factory building.

"This is?"

Thinking of those urban legends, Bai Ge tensed up subconsciously.

"We got information. A few days ago, a transaction involving local illegal organizations took place at the pier here. There are abyssal relics that have not been discovered by both parties to the transaction. Tonight should be their weakest time. We Take the opportunity to get that thing back."

Ai Lian said softly, and walked towards the factory building.

Illegal organization? ? ?

Abyss relic? ? ?

Bai Ge was taken aback.

Is this love bringing her to fight against evil and maintain order in the community?
