Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 3967 April st

Passerby?
Why are you standing still?
It was not until this time that April 1st slowly raised his head, wanting to see who was blocking the way.

However, as soon as he raised his head, he felt dizzy.

——Oops, I think I have low blood sugar.

Today he had nothing to eat, so he ran to the Investigation Bureau excitedly to look for information. As a result, he was not only beaten, but also locked up in a small dark room for most of the day, without a drop of water until now, and the information was nowhere to be found.

His health was not very good on weekdays, and he had been keeping his head down, which had already compressed the blood vessels in his neck. Now he raised his head suddenly, coupled with the fatigue of the day, he felt dizzy instantly.

On April 1st, I felt a darkness before my eyes.

Before he was about to fall into the whirlpool of darkness and sweetness, he vaguely saw the person standing in front of him.

The dim light obscured the man's face, and only the soft and clear outline could be vaguely seen.

This feeling reminded him vaguely of the rainy night when he met the old beggar. There was also a man standing under the wall lamp, with the halo covering his face and disappearing in the backlight.

A bit like……

This was April 1st’s last thought before he fell into a coma.

The next second, he was completely plunged into darkness.

……

When April 1st opened his eyes, he found himself lying on a leather sofa.

He also had a black and green checkered blanket draped over his body.

April 1st slowly stood up and looked around in confusion: "Is this... an office?"

This looks like an office.

An office he had never seen before...

"I remember I was sleeping in my own bed, didn't I?" April 1st muttered in a low voice, "How did I suddenly come here? Could it be that I had another real dream?"

April 1st couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pinch his cheek, leaving pink marks on his soft skin.

The pain surged up.

It was his body, for sure.

So, this is not a dream?
That’s not right. When I’m dreaming in a real dream, the touch of my body is the same as in reality. Even the pain when I’m beaten is no different... Could it be a real dream?
On April 1st, when I was in a trance, the door was pushed open and a lady in a professional suit and high heels walked in.

She was holding a briefcase in her hand and seemed to be handling official business.

When she entered the room, she did not pay attention to April 1st, but walked towards the desk. Halfway there, she noticed someone staring at her.

When I turned around, I saw April 1st sitting on the sofa, half of his face covered by a blanket, but his eyes looking out.

"You...you're awake?" Lizzie put down the file bag and walked to the sofa.

Feeling Liz approaching, April 1st was obviously a little embarrassed, and his hands hidden under the blanket were shaking.

He had remembered it now.

He was arrested by the Public Security Bureau and put into a small dark room, where he was kept for an unknown period of time. Just when he was at a loss, the guard told him that someone had vouched for him and he could leave.

He was totally confused at that time.

He did have a few friends, but they were from the same class as him and didn't have the ability to guarantee him. Moreover, he didn't tell his friends about his visit to the Public Security Bureau...

So, who will guarantee me?
But no matter who came to vouch for him, he felt very embarrassed... After all, entering the Sheriff's Office was embarrassing enough, not to mention that he had caused a big scene here...

Later, he saw the guarantor, a lady who called herself Lizzie, but he didn't know her.

But because she was shy and felt ashamed, April 1st didn't say anything and just followed Lizi out...

Then he passed out due to hypoglycemia.

"Yeah, I just woke up." April 1st stood up shyly.

Fortunately, his shoes were right next to him, so he quickly put them on, stood still, and bowed deeply to Lizzie to express his gratitude.

This rigid behavior made Li Zi feel a little funny, and she waved her hand casually: "No, it's just that your body is a little weak. Boys still need to practice more."

Lizzie's words made April 1st lower his head again.

Lizzie: "Don't lower your head, raise your head and follow me."

April 1: “Ah?”

While he was wondering, Lizzie had already walked to the door and opened it: "Why are you still standing there?"

April 1st was a very gentle person, even a little submissive. Although he didn't know where Lizzie wanted him to go, once someone pushed him, he would follow subconsciously.

In addition, this is an unfamiliar environment and he also wants to leave.

Both internal and external factors gave him the motivation to leave, so naturally he followed Lizzie out the door.

However, when he saw the strange and magnificent corridor outside, his rationality returned: "Where are we going now?"

Lizzie glanced at the obviously restrained April 1st and couldn't help but joked, "I thought you were a little cub who wouldn't ask anything. But you finally spoke up."

April 1st pursed his lips dryly.

Lizzie didn't continue teasing, and smiled and said, "We must go to eat now, or do you want to faint again?"

"Ah, I..." April 1st wanted to say something, but swallowed it back and said softly, "Thank you."

Entering the elevator, Lizzie pressed the button for the fifth floor.

"There is a small private shop on the fifth floor of the Fashion Guild that makes sweet bean paste. It's pretty good and very suitable for people like you who have low blood sugar."

April 1st didn't react at first, but suddenly, his eyes widened: "What did you say? This is the Fashion Guild?!"

Lizzie raised an eyebrow: "What?"

April 1st lowered his eyebrows: "No, nothing. I just didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to come here..."

In reality, he had never dreamed of entering the Fashion Guild, which was the most valuable place in the entire Modern City. But he did not expect that in this real dream, he actually came to the Fashion Guild...

Before April 1st, due to my personality, I was a little timid. I just kept my head down and didn't dare to look around.

But now, after learning that this is the Fashion Guild, he wished he had eyes all over his body.

He couldn't miss such a rare opportunity.

You know, according to his comparison, the buildings in reality and real dreams are all restored 1:1. Even some architectural details in reality are perfectly presented in the real dream.

In other words, the Fashion Guild in the real dream is exactly the same as in reality.

Isn't his touring here equivalent to a trip to reality as well?

Although he once wondered why his real dream could be so real, even beyond his cognitive boundaries, but these were not important, the experience process was more important.

They walked and looked along the way, and finally, they arrived at the private shop introduced by Lizzie.

As soon as they entered, they were led by the waiter to a secret private room.

Just when the private room was opened, April 1st saw a person sitting inside, a young man who was shining brightly in the halo...

After sitting down and going through a brief introduction, April 1st realized that the person in front of him was called "Angel" and asked Liz to rescue him from the Sheriff's Department.

As for the reason.

Ingres didn't say anything, but just asked him to finish eating before talking.

Next, the three of them sat in a private room and enjoyed a meal of sweet mashed potatoes. Although the atmosphere was a little awkward, after this full meal, April 1st felt like he was alive again.

Even the weak legs were filled with strong energy again.

After a simple meal, Lizzie left first on the pretext of "paying the bill".

In the private room, only Ingres and April 1st were left.

Although April 1st was passive, he was not stupid. He knew that something might be about to happen... although he didn't know what it would be.

But it is most likely related to Ingres in front of him.

Didn't Lizzie leave on her own initiative just to give them time to have a private conversation?

April 1st sat quietly in his seat, waiting for the unknown to happen.

Angel did not speak to April 1st immediately, but turned his head and looked out the window.
April 1st also looked over. Outside the window was the colorful city scenery. On the building not far away, there was a changing holographic projection.

"Did you see the graffiti?" Angel pointed to the building not far away.

April 1st looked at it and shook his head.

Although the building didn't seem far away, it was still several dozen meters away, and due to the severe light pollution, he couldn't see a thing.

"It doesn't matter if you don't see it." Angel snapped his fingers lightly, and everything outside was covered by layers of fog.

In a blink of an eye, everything around them except the table and chairs in front of them was filled with floating mist.

April 1st's eyes widened when he saw this scene.

Is this... extraordinary?
But remembering some information he had read not long ago, he slowly calmed down.

He knew... there was a group of extraordinary people in the Modern City who called themselves fashion magicians. In fact, for the rich and powerful, fashion magicians were no secret.

But for the general public, this is intelligence beyond the cognitive level.

For example, on April 1st, he didn't know the existence of the Fashion Magician before, but some time ago, he accidentally came into contact with some secrets, which gave him a certain understanding of the extraordinary world.

The Ingres in front of us is most likely a fashion magician.

So, could the "graffiti" he was paying attention to just now also be related to the extraordinary?
"Graffiti? It is somewhat related, but it has nothing to do with you." Angel said indifferently.

The graffiti was painted on the holographic projection of the building opposite, and it changed along with the color of the projection. Not to mention an ordinary person like April 1st, even a senior magician might not be able to find it.

After all, the graffiti across the street was left by Vera.

Before this, when Ingres first came here, he noticed from a God’s perspective that on the building opposite, there was a hidden energy slowly drawing graffiti.

Because of the lighting, it is not easy to spot.

But Ingres observed his surroundings not through light and shadow, but through the perspective of God.

In particular, after Lizzie suggested taking the unconscious April 1st to her office in the Fashion Guild to rest, Angel entered the Fashion Guild's territory with the God's perspective turned on throughout the process.

Therefore, it is not too easy to discover the details of graffiti.

Through the feedback of the residual energy on the graffiti, Angel successfully found Vera on the top floor of the Fashion Guild.

She was currently in the dark room, observing the situation on Angel's side through the graffiti.

——Yes, Doodle’s ability is “surveillance”, the same as Dan’s ability.

Most likely, Angel and Lizzie came to the Fashion Guild and were discovered by Vera, so she came up with the plan of graffiti observation.

But Vera didn't expect that even though she acted extremely secretly, she was still easily discovered by Angel.

the other side.

When Angel placed the fog outside the private room, Vera, who was on the top floor, sighed helplessly, walked to her desk, and took out a box.

Then I contacted Lizzie through the contact card.

"You come to my office."

Lizzie: "Ah? But I..."

Vera: "I know what you are doing. Don't worry, Angel and the man called April 1st will not come out for a while."

Lizzie: “…”

In such a short time, even April 1st's identity was found out...

Vera: "Come up and give Angel something for me. Tell him that this is my apology to him."

"Apologize?" Lizzie was a little confused.

Vera didn't explain: "Don't worry about it, tell him, he will understand."

Since her boss had spoken, Lizzie naturally did not dare to delay and quickly took the elevator directly to the top floor.

And on Ingres' side.

Through the God's perspective, he also heard the conversation between Vera and Lizzie.

He had naturally guessed what Vera meant. He estimated that it was because he discovered the graffiti surveillance and Vera didn't want to offend him, so she wanted to give him a gift as compensation and apologize.

To be honest, he didn't really care.

If this were the situation in reality, he might have some emotional fluctuations. But this is just a copy, a projection of reality... The only real thing is April 1st in front of him.

Therefore, he will not be angry about it.

However, it's not a loss at all since I just earned some compensation.

Angel did not continue to pay attention to Vera, but looked at April 1st opposite.

From April 1st till now, I am still very reserved and look around from time to time.

"You should still remember me, right?"

April 1st was silent for a moment, then nodded: "I still remember. Although I didn't see your face clearly on that rainy night, your voice... I still remember it."

"Thank you again, sir. If it weren't for you, I might still be locked up in the small dark room..."

Angel waved his hand indifferently: "It's just a favor."

"But I'm curious, why did you go to the Sheriff's Office and cause a scene today?"

According to the notice that Angell saw from the Sheriff's Office, he knew about April 1st because someone suddenly broke into the Sheriff's Office and made a scene, and was arrested by the security guards and locked up in a small dark room.

However, the notice did not specify why the incident took place at the Public Security Bureau.

Although Angor had some guesses in his mind, he still needed April 1st to confirm them...

April 1st had his brows lowered, as if in deep thought.

In fact, compared to his own situation, he wanted to know why Angel came to save him. Was it because of their first encounter?
But these questions must be put aside for later.

At least, we have to answer Ingres's questions first.

But April 1st didn’t know whether he should tell the truth.

Because if he told the truth, he himself would find it absurd.

But if he told a lie, he didn't want to deceive Angel...

How about telling half the truth first?
April 1st thought for a moment and then slowly said, "Actually, I just want to go... to the General Administration to check my sister's information."

"I have a sister who has been missing for more than five years. I have been looking for her for five years, but there is no clue."

"The General Administration has the personnel information of the entire Modern City, so I wanted to go in and look for any information about my sister."
