End of Mystery

Walking through the bar where countless customers gathered, it feels like walking through the gate of ghosts dancing with demons. The elevator going up is like sinking into the ghostly reincarnation road, and after getting out of the elevator, the long corridor leading to the office feels like It was walking through the dead and deserted Huangquan Road. Finally, when he pushed open the door of the office, the man in the suit felt that he was facing the devil in hell.

The soft light in the office hit his face, but the man in the suit felt cold all over his body.

The icy mental force field seemed to be scratching the bone, submerging himself in an instant, depriving him of all the warmth of being a living person.

He tried his best to raise his head, and saw Xiao Xiao sitting on the sofa in the office, and Yang Jia beside him.

Both of them had extremely handsome appearances, holding wine glasses in their hands, with indifferent expressions and sharp eyes, as if they could see through all the secrets at a glance. The moment the man in the suit met their eyes, he was in a trance, as if Seeing the evil god at the end of the weirdness and the legendary witch who has been with him all the time, he felt endless phantoms and ravings appearing in front of his eyes.

It was a kind of lofty gaze, looking down on a low-level life form like myself.

He wanted to try his best to keep his mind, but he felt that he couldn't grasp it, and his will and pretense were gone.

"So it's really you..."

When his mind went blank, Xiao Xiao who was sitting on the sofa suddenly smiled and said:

"haven't seen you for a long time!"

"..."

"He remembers me?"

The man in the suit was startled suddenly, and his mind fell into boundless fear.

Remembering himself, does it mean that he intends to pollute himself?

Earlier, because of an ambiguous joke made by his female boss, the man in the suit couldn’t sleep for several months because of worry, and tested himself two or three times a day. He was deeply afraid that one day, the company would really send him over. This guy pollutes.

But I didn't expect that after that time, I came to the new boss's subordinates, but I was sent over to deliver the letter at the first time.

The recipient of the letter remembers me, this is not a good thing...

Of course Xiao Xiao remembered this man in a suit. When his mother was so angry that he had a heart attack and he saw his father in the hospital, the father who was threatened immediately called this man over. He was also the first The person who brought the aboriginal perspective to me, so I still have a deep impression of him. Now that I see him again, I have to wear a polite smile on my face...

Of course, I don't care whether this smile scares the other party or not.

I'm just being polite, it's your fault that you're scared.

"Xiao... Mr. Xiao..."

The man in the suit tried his best to keep his voice steady, and said in a low voice, "I'm here to deliver the invitation letter."

"On behalf of Mr. Shepherd, I invite you to a party."

"..."

Xiao Xiao nodded, and was not in a hurry to take it. Instead, he looked at him and tried his best to assume the perspective of the aborigines, and said with a smile:

"Are you from the Black Forest or from the Black Goat Club?"

"..."

If you look at it from the perspective of a foreigner, you will basically not have this kind of thinking.

In their view, aboriginal people are aboriginal people, they are a large category, puppets controlled by the city.

In this case, what is the point of classifying the type of puppet?

But Xiao Xiao is different. He has already begun to try to accept the side of the aborigines. Therefore, analyzing from the perspective of the aborigines, he thinks that the Black Forest Biological Laboratory is different from the Black Goat Club. According to the information obtained from the rabbit boss In terms of intelligence, the Black Forest Biological Laboratory is the origin of everything, which is equivalent to the official, while the Black Goat Club is a non-governmental organization.

Asking yourself clearly also shows that you are polite and show that you don't know everything about them.

"I……"

The man in the suit didn't expect Xiao Xiao to ask this, and his throat tightened slightly.

After a moment of silence, he replied hoarsely: "I was originally an investigator of the Black Forest."

"But now, he has been transferred to work under Mr. Shepherd."

"..."

"oh?"

Xiao Xiao laughed and said, "Does this mean that the Black Forest and the Black Goat Club have merged?"

"Oh my God, he guessed it, why does he seem to know everything, as if he can see my thinking..."

The man in the suit shivered a bit, dripping with cold sweat.

Can the other party see so many secrets with a casual word?

Xiao Xiao could feel his nervousness from the man in the suit, but he didn't have any other thoughts in his heart. In fact, he couldn't tell whoever changed him. The man in the suit was transferred to the shepherd's hands, which meant that he was from the upper level of the Black Forest agency order.

The Black Forest is going to transfer people to the shepherds, which naturally means that they are now one.

At least an alliance.

This is a very trivial matter, but whenever a person faces a high-ranking person or someone he cares about, he will often have a state of extreme lack of self-confidence. He didn't dare to guess what the high-ranking person was thinking, so he showed his cowardly side more and more, and saw the high-ranking person as unfathomable.

This is the instinct to subdue intelligence in human nature, not just the man in the suit.

Xiao Xiao was very relaxed. He didn't have any special purpose in asking these questions, but just asked casually:

"By the way, what's your name?"

"..."

The man in the suit was already extremely nervous. Hearing this sentence, he almost collapsed.

He asked his name, did he want to pollute himself?

Do these monsters have to know their names when they pollute others?

He instinctively resisted, absolutely not wanting to answer this question.

Just like all the high-level officials tried their best to conceal their identities.

But he didn't dare not to answer, or even dare to answer a lie, because he knew that the one in front of him was the craziest monster in Black Gate City. He was powerful, mysterious, and neurotic. When he first saw him, he clearly He was just a harmless high school student, but he killed an innocent civilian without blinking his eyes, without the slightest pity and fear of normal people.

And later, I have heard the news that his father was killed by him...

Such a person would mind killing himself?

Maybe if he said his name, he would be polluted by him, but if he didn't say it, what if he killed himself casually?

Maybe he has a way to tell if he's telling a lie?

Holding this thought, he experienced extreme fear in his heart, and finally thought of an answer.

That's not his name, it's his code name.

Or was he only given the mocking code name when he was sent to die as a D-rank investigator.

Originally, he never wanted to hear this code name again, but now he is willing to say this code name:

"Wild dogs."

He replied in a low voice: "My code name is Wild Dog, you can call me that."

"Wild dogs?"

Xiao Xiao couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "This name is very interesting..."

In fact, he could feel the nervousness of the man in the suit. He wanted to chat a little more friendly, but he was also worried that this guy would be scared to pee if he chatted a little more. After all, this is his office, and with the immediate When he was about to meet the shepherd, he was not in a hurry to ask any questions from the messenger, so he just smiled, accepted the invitation letter, and said, "I will go."

"……yes!"

The man in the suit, or Mr. Wild Dog, had a trembling voice, lowered his head, and responded in a low voice.

"Um……"

Xiao Xiao glanced at the invitation letter, and then at him again. Seeing that he was not moving, he asked curiously, "Stay here for dinner?"

"……Um?"

Mr. Wild Dog was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized that he could leave.

Shaking his head hastily, he left quickly.

When he walked out of the room, he still tried to maintain a rhythm, but when he entered the elevator, his legs were already weak.

When they got down to the first floor, they had already rushed out of the bar like an escape.

...

...

"Are the aborigines so afraid of us?"

Xiao Xiao didn't turn his head to look at Yang Jia and smiled until Mr. Wild Dog left the bar, waving the invitation letter in his hand.

"In their eyes, we are a group of lunatics living in fantasy, killing people at every turn, or polluting them."

Yang Jia said: "How can you not be afraid? What does this invitation letter say?"

"It's really an invitation to a party."

Xiao Xiao smiled and handed the invitation letter to her, the contents of which had already been read.

It was an invitation to a party with strict and respectful wording, and it was signed by the Black Goat Club, which looked quite high-end.

Yang Jia was very happy with Xiao Xiao's attitude of believing in herself. After glancing at the invitation letter, she nodded slightly, her expression seemed a little surprised: "You went to find the unquenchable heart, originally to investigate some secrets of Heimen City. But I didn't expect that before the investigation started, the core figures of these secrets would take the initiative to come to the door, why do these things feel so strange?"

Xiao Xiao knew why she said that.

In the eyes of Yang Jia and other foreigners, the threat of the shepherd is greater than that of the Black Forest Biological Laboratory.

Once, Yang Jia must have thought that the Shepherd was the most deformed creature in the city. He had jumped out of the category of ordinary aborigines, and possessed a power powerful enough to fight against the branded ones. people.

No matter from which point of view, the shepherd is indeed the core of all the secrets, at least a very important proportion.

He nodded and said, "You'll know when you see it."

"must be careful."

Yang Jia looked at Xiao Xiao, and said seriously: "One is that you have completed the fourth stage of strengthening, but Heimen City has not shown any rejection of you, and even welcomes you. Second, the core figures in this city will take the initiative to invite You are beyond comprehension."

"I think there must be some deeper reason."

"..."

Xiao Xiao heard some meaning in her words, raised his eyebrows slightly: "Aren't you going?"

"yes."

Yang Jia said, "I think it's best for you to go there by yourself for the meeting with the shepherd."

"I can't hear some secrets, after all, I'm a brander."

"But you don't have to worry. I will be free tomorrow. If necessary, I will rush over to help you."

"..."

"Why do you feel that Yang Jia is a little weird?"

Xiao Xiao glanced at Yang Jia, thought silently, and nodded slightly.

The two chatted for a few more words, and when they saw that it was getting late, they separated. Xiao Xiao took a look and saw that Lin Bo and his team members were drinking happily with fake wine. It seemed that they would probably sleep tonight. In the bar, since Xiao Si was with them anyway, they didn't have to worry about any problems, so they went straight out of the bar, took a taxi and walked towards their home, thinking about these things on the way.

I got the Buxiu Heart, and the people from the Black Goat Club also took the initiative to get in touch with me...

...is it time to solve all the mysteries?

However, is all this the effect of the unquenchable heart, or is it the time for the shepherd to get in touch with himself?

The same thing, in the eyes of the aborigines and foreigners, may have two different results. The foreigners will think that they have really got a heart that can influence the will of the city. when contacting.

Even the current self can't give a precise explanation.

Well, probably just look at it.

And the key point is, what ability can this unquenchable heart bring to him?

Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao turned his head from the taxi and took a look at this still bustling and luxurious city. He felt that every street, every building, and every neon sign in the city seemed to be close to him. Many, the sense of familiarity and intimacy when I just returned to the city, not only did not disappear, but it seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, as if I had returned home.

It can't be that this is the purpose of not extinguishing the heart, right?

Shorten the distance between yourself and the city?

With these questions in mind, he returned to the alley in front of his house and walked in slowly, with a solid and gentle feeling.

The three thorn dogs wagged their tails as usual.

Only Erha, seeing that he didn't have anything in his hand, just stood up and took a look, then got down again.

At the end of the alley, in front of the butcher's butcher's shop, there was actually a light on.

This made this dark alley seem less depressing and hopeless, which made people feel a lot more at ease.

What surprised Xiao Xiao the most was the record player lady.

When he was in the bar, Xiao Xiao didn't bother her when he saw Miss Record Player working so hard and earnestly. At this moment, he looked up to the second floor, and he immediately felt a spiritual connection. At the same time, a message appeared in mind:

[Special Item: Bewitching Jukebox]

【Grade: B Grade】

[Secondary reinforcement points: 33 points]

[Remarks: When you are running in confusion, struggling in flesh and blood, the wonderful girl is still waiting for you in the city]

【…】

"33 points?"

Xiao Xiao was taken aback. Five thousand points would allow Miss Record Player to complete the second enhancement.

Now, there are only 33 points left?

She herself earned 4967 points in such a short period of time?

Shocked in his heart, Xiao Xiao quickly put on a serious face: "Didn't you promise to complete the strengthening when I came back?"

"Why are there so many missing?"

"...Last time I just needed to spend one point for you, this time it's too much!"

"..."

Although I have tens of thousands of points on my body now, thirty-three points are not many, but I still have to have an attitude. My hundreds of thousands of points are important. Living in such a world, why not Need points?

The Noah plan alone requires millions of points!

Therefore, a few reprimands are still necessary.

But when Xiao Xiao expressed his dissatisfaction, the second floor with white curtains was silent.

Vaguely, it seemed to hear a soft "heh"...

Xiao Xiao couldn't see the face of the record player lady, but he could feel her dissatisfaction from the uncertain sneer.

These employees, you can't treat them too well.

I have worked so hard to strengthen them, and have grown up all the way, but now I can talk back...

"keep it up."

It was hard for him to say anything else, he just gave a silent reminder and returned home.

The sound of the iron door being pushed open was a bit loud. Before Xiao Xiao could enter the living room, the light in the mother’s bedroom was turned on. No, the mother came out with her clothes on. Looking at Xiao Xiao, he said, "It's just a business trip, why did you come back so late? You didn't sleep well at first, but you woke up all of a sudden... Are you hungry, I'll cook a bowl of noodles for you."

Xiao Xiao couldn't hold back any longer.

You scold and care for a while, so should I be hungry or not?

Fortunately, my mother didn't care about his answer at all, and walked towards the kitchen while talking dissatisfied.

Xiao Xiao had no choice but to sit down and wait.

One thing to say, I really didn't eat anything, I just had a glass of wine with Yang Jia from the time I got off the train.

Seeing his mother jingling in the kitchen, Xiao Xiao also exhaled silently. If he ignores some weird and indescribable experiences he experienced outside, the current life is indeed what he has been living in those four years. Looking forward to, I can go out like a normal person, I can have a job that is not tiring and profitable, and my mother doesn't have to look at me so hostilely every day.

Now I seem to have got what I dreamed of, but it happened in this way.

And thinking about this, he suddenly thought of something: "What will happen if mother finds out about father's death?"

Will she accept the fact that her father died in front of her?

Will she believe that her father's death has nothing to do with her?

Such worry made his heart beat involuntarily, and he remembered many worried things.

But even he didn't expect that just when his heart was beating like this, there seemed to be some kind of strange flame, which suddenly flashed away beside him. Perception is also difficult to detect, but at a certain level, it instantly burns into the city where Xiao Xiao has lived for a long time, so the whole city is affected.

Some kind of logic quietly takes shape in the sea of ​​intertwined human-based spirits.

A certain secret began to be buried, but it was aimed at Xiao's mother alone.

She will begin to insulate herself from the news forever.

It was as if, since Xiao Xiao didn't want her mother to know about it, then she would never know about it.
