Urban Odds: Cry Game

Shacheng——

"Hey, No. 71, wait." When the two teams of guards passed by, the patrol guard numbered 373 called to stop each other.

The patrol police officer numbered 71 stopped and turned around: "What's wrong?"

No. 373 pointed to his collar: "There is a very thin thread behind you, don't take it off, be careful to stick it to your neck!"

"Silk? Where did the silk come from?"

"That stall!" Patrolman No. 373 pointed to a sugar stall not far away. The stall owner was performing syrup spinning techniques, and the filaments made of sugar were rolled into a fluffy lollipop by the stall owner. Many children like to eat.

Patrolman No. 71 touched his neck with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I'll grab it and eat it when I'm hungry!"

No. 373 laughed loudly, said goodbye to No. 71, and continued to patrol the streets with his companions.Walking under the light, No. 373 found a string of sugar floating behind the neck of his companion. No. 373 planned to help him tear it off secretly, he wrapped the thin thread around his fingers, and gently pulled——

The companion suddenly tilted his head back, as if he had bent his neck, and looked at the stunned No. 373 from a strange angle.

The silk thread wrapped around the finger cut into the skin, greedily sucking the blood of No. 373, and when No. 373 came to his senses, the thread had broken, half of it was connected to the neck of his companion, and the other half was fused with his finger.

No. 373 opened his mouth, and his mouth opened and closed silently.The companion's head quickly recovered, and he turned around: "Why are you in a daze? Hurry up, there are still two streets to patrol!"

No. 373 heard herself saying, "Yes."

Consciousness gradually blurred, and No. 373 felt sleepy and tired. Before losing consciousness, he could still feel that he was walking "vigorously"...

No. 71 and his companions separated at the intersection, walked into the stall of the orc caravan alone, and found the busy Aix.

"Mr. Aix, I am a member of the Shacheng Guard, number 71." No. 71 stood at attention and saluted, with his number and certification information engraved on the guard medal on his chest.

Ax moved his gaze from the medal to his face, and nodded: "What's the matter?"

No. 71 said: "General Sally Findo needs you, please follow me."

"Oh? What do you want me to do?" Aix doesn't have much contact with Sally Fando at ordinary times. Even if Sally Fando suspects that he is the Son of God, there is no way to arrest him without evidence. catch.

Colleague A, who was holding a suitcase, passed by and said worriedly, "Shall I go with you?"

"No need." Ax didn't leave the pot, and said to No. 71, "Wait for me."

A new pot of meatballs was cooked, and Ax scooped out a bowl and handed it to colleague A: "This is for Zhou...Jack, please add some sweet and sour sauce for me, not spicy."

"Okay." Colleague A held the bowl and watched Aix follow the guards away.

Zhou Yang fled quickly before the Beastmaster came out of the tent, jogging all the way with a guilty conscience.In fact, Zhou Yang had suspected Liu Yun a long time ago, his appearance was too coincidental, but he did not expect that Liu Yun was also Lilith's guard.

Both of Lilith's guards came out, one light and one dark, guarding Aix's side like a shadow... Well, it's much more reliable than my own half-blood!

Back at the booth, Aikes was not there, only colleague A hurriedly received the guests.

"You're back!" Colleague A dutifully brought the bowl to him, "Ikes cooked it for you, it's getting cold, eat it quickly, I added sauce for you!"

Zhou Yang held the bowl and looked around: "Where are the others?"

Colleague A said: "Sally Fondo had something to look for, so he went over."

"Has Sally Fondo come to the booth?"

"No." Colleague A handed the packaged meatballs to the customer, collecting the money and delivering the goods, explaining incessantly, "A patrolling police officer came to send a message."

"Patrol police officer?" Zhou Yang was even more surprised. With Sally Fando's temper, she should be the one who came to find Aix herself!

Besides, is there anything important that must be said at this time?

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Yang remembered a plot in the game——in the battle of Shacheng, after defeating Ke Lei and Sally Fendor, Sally Fendor seemed to say something, but...Zhou Yang was always quick and skipped up.

According to his experience, after defeating the boss, the dying boss will always say a few irrelevant "polite" words.

Thinking about it now, it doesn't seem that simple?

What did Sally Fondo want to say to X?

Did she find evidence to expose and arrest him?

"Hurry up! Add some meatballs to the pot!" Colleague A is busy packing, "Hurry up and cook, or there won't be enough to sell in a while!"

Zhou Yang added meatballs to the pot and stirred them with a spoon. The more he thought about it, the more unpleasant it became.

"Hey, where's Ax?" Liu Yun, who came late, also pretended to ask casually, "Just you two?"

"He has something to leave." Zhou Yang said casually, "Sally Fan wants to find him."

Liuyun calmly said "Oh", and quickly scooped up a pinch into the pot with quick eyes and hands, and a steaming hot ball came out.

Zhou Yang admired his acting skills a little bit. His own son was called away by the general of the empire, but he was able to steal meatballs with a calm face.

With his mouth puffed, Liu Yun whirled and blew the balls, and as he blew, his calm face gradually turned blue.

Liu Yun: "...You, who did you just say was looking for him?"

Zhou Yang: "... Sally Fando."

Flowing cloud: Σ(°△°|||)

Zhou Yang: "..." Well, this guy is quite slow! =_=b

"Don't worry." Zhou Yang patted Liu Yun, who was sweating profusely, "It's okay, maybe I just ask him to chat. You help look at the booth, and I'll go find him."

"I'll go with you!" Liu Yun was terribly worried. After leaving for a while, the Son was taken away by Sally Fando. The Imperial Army was really hard to guard against!

"Fifty skewers of meatballs!" A familiar voice sounded from the crowd.

"Fifty strings are not enough? At least two hundred strings!"

"Is it too much?"

"Not much, not much! Look at them, they are all hiding in the dragon's den, and they all expect us to bring food back!"

"Just buy meatballs?"

"Of course! The meatballs are delicious!" Alice squeezed through the crowd and stood in front of the booth, "Give us a discount!"

Sally Fando, who was dressed in casual clothes, also pushed through the crowd, stood in front of the booth, and smiled at the three stunned men: "What? Can't you give me a discount if you buy two hundred strings?"

Zhou Yang choked: "Then what... Are you finished talking?"

Sally Fondo: "What are you talking about?"

Zhou Yang: "...it's nothing."

Sally Fondo: "???"

Zhou Yang patted his colleague A on the shoulder: "Hurry up and cook meatballs for them!"

"I'm sorry to trouble you!" Liu Yun stuffed the freshly blown meatballs into colleague A's mouth, and turned to chase after Zhou Yang.

Sally Fondo didn't know what happened yet, and watched Zhou Yang and Liu Yun weaving through the crowd, going deep into the street, and was quickly overwhelmed by the crowd and disappeared.

"What happened to them? They left in such a hurry?" Alice wondered.

Colleague A also wondered: "It wasn't you who asked Ax just now, and you said you needed to find him?"

Alice: "Me? No, what should I do with him?"

"It's not you...it's her." Colleague A pointed to Sally Fando.

Sally Fondo pointed at herself with question marks all over her head: "...Me?"

The city that never sleeps——

On the top floor of the giant black tower, after the meeting was over, the Great Elder called out to the Third Elder: "Wait."

The third elder who was going down the stairs stopped: "...what's wrong?"

The first elder stepped forward, glanced at the third elder, and said with a smile: "You look bad, are you feeling unwell?"

The third elder touched his face and forced a wry smile: "No, I'm very healthy!"

Great Elder: "You look so tired?"

The third elder sighed: "Maybe I haven't had a good rest, I'm very sleepy today."

The Great Elder smiled and said: "It's getting late, go back and rest quickly, remember to come back for a meeting tomorrow morning."

The third elder felt restless for a while. Following the arrival of the Holy Son, the elders' meetings were also held frequently. There were meetings to be held almost every day, and nothing serious was discussed.The third elder was dizzy, returned to the residence in a daze, touched the pillow, and immediately fell asleep.

This sleep was also restless. He dreamed that when he returned to the conference room, all the elders except himself were connected by a thread.Threads from nowhere penetrated the space, and more and more threads were tied to the joints of the elders one by one.The third elder watched helplessly as they stood up limply like puppets being manipulated, and walked towards him.The third elder yelled, rushed out of the door, ran out of the black tower in one breath, ran to the street, grabbed the guard for help, the guard turned his head, his eyes were empty, and there were thin silk threads hanging around his neck and joints.The third elder pushed him away violently, and continued running towards the street.He yelled, but no one answered him.The third elder ran out of several streets at once. He didn't dare to poke his head out until he hid in a small alley. The silk threads are entangled, like lifeless puppets.The silk thread stretches all the way, and it can't be seen clearly when it goes up. The silk thread doesn't go straight to the sky, but disappears halfway, connecting to an invisible space.

"What the hell is going on here?!" The third elder touched his neck, but luckily he didn't touch the silk thread.

Someone patted his shoulder suddenly, the Third Elder jumped in fright, and turned his head back with horror on his face.

"Third Elder, what a coincidence!" Pegasus, the director of the P-301 heterogeneous experiment and a long-term partner of the blood race, smiled at him, "What are you doing here?"

"I..." The third elder swallowed his saliva and looked straight at Pegasus.

"What are you looking at? Are you... looking at this?" Pegasus touched the silk thread on his neck with his backhand, pulled it hard, and handed it to him.

As the silk thread was cut off, Pegasus' head also fell to the ground.

"Ah——!!!" The third elder sat up sweating, but he found that he was still in a dream.The streets were empty, and the residents and guards were all gone. The third elder ran out of the alley and hurried towards the giant black tower.He felt that nowhere was safe, only the topmost floor of the Black Tower - where Lilith was, was the safest.He must find Lilith and rescue her as soon as possible!

Fog started to form on the street, and the thick white mist spread quickly. The third elder lost his way, circling around like headless flies in the thick fog.

"Third Elder." A haggard woman stepped out of the mist and stood in front of the Third Elder, "It's useless for you to look for me."

"You are..." The third elder looked at her suspiciously, "Lilith?"

Lilith stayed in the deepest part of the Black Tower all year round, and no one had seen her except Mo Yu and Liu Yun.

So Lilith looks like this?The third elder thought to himself, it's very ordinary!This guy has hands and feet, why does he stay in the depths of the black tower all year round, pretending to be a ghost, and never comes out?

"It's useless for you to look for me, I can't help much anymore." Lilith smiled wryly, her voice was ethereal, "Go find someone who can help you..."

The dense fog spread, enveloping Lilith.

"Wait!" The third elder stretched out his hand, but stepped into the air, yelling and waking up.

This time, I really woke up.

Familiar room, familiar big bed.The third elder sat up sweating, sat there for a moment, suddenly turned over and got off the bed, grabbed the cloak, and wrapped himself from head to toe.

The celebration was held day and night, and the streets were brightly lit. The three elders avoided the guards and walked into a tavern.

"Old rules." The third elder said to the proprietress.

Usually after get off work, the third elder would always come here for a drink.He doesn't like the crowded lobby, so the proprietress specially prepared a separate small room for him.In addition to sending wine, they also sent women.But the third elder was obviously not very interested, only interested in drinks.The proprietress took him to the exclusive small room, and still tried to ask: "Is it too boring to drink alone?"

The third elder sat down by the window and waved impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get some wine!"

When the food and wine were served, the proprietress saw that he was in a bad mood and wanted to stay with him, but was ruthlessly kicked out by the third elder.

After closing the door and locking it, the third elder sat back to his seat, took out a steel feather from his sleeve and put it on the table, found a crystal piece the size of a fingernail, put it on his lips, whispered a few words, threw the crystal into a wine glass.

After the crystal melted, the third elder dipped his finger in the wine and quickly drew a spell on the steel feather.

"Old friend, you must come and help me..." the third elder murmured.

a long distance away--

Xue Xiao, who was washing his face by the stream, suddenly heard a voice, and he was slightly taken aback: "Who?!"

"Blood owl!"

"Who?" Xue Xiao looked around vigilantly, and his eyes fell on the stream.

That voice came from the water!

"It's me!" The face of the third elder gradually appeared in the stream, "Your old friend!"

"..." Xue Xiao didn't even have any interest in washing his face.

The third elder was anxious: "Hey! Don't go! I have something to do with you!"

"Water shadow technique must have the object of the other party, and it can be contacted with the spell." Xue Xiao stared at the stream coldly, "How did you find me?"

"I have your feathers!"

"Where did it come from?"

"Pick it up!"

Blood Owl: "..."

The third elder: "Really! Listen to me! There are people I hired in the capital of the sea of ​​clouds, and I asked them to pick them up!"

"How many?"

"Not many, about ten roots."

"You, you picked up all my hair?!" Xue Xiao was so angry that his eyes were filled with stars, and when he thought of his hair falling into the other party's hands, he felt as uncomfortable as swallowing a bug.

"Don't get excited! Look, this will come in handy!" The third elder bit the bullet and said flatteringly, "Otherwise I wouldn't be able to find you!"

Xue Xiao sat down, folded his hands on his chest, and sulked at the stream.

The third elder said in a low voice, "I want to ask you for a favor."

"Heh, since you have people in the sea of ​​clouds, it is impossible not to know what happened?" Xue Xiao said coldly, "They are all dead, and I am the only one alive. The bounty team has long since ceased to exist!"

The third elder immediately flattered him: "But in the leaderboard, you are always number one! I can hire you alone with the highest salary among bounty hunters!"

Blood owl was unmoved: "No time"

"how?"

"Heal the wound."

"It's okay! Hehe! You can raise them here too!"

"..." Xue Xiao didn't want to get into this muddy water, so he got up and left.

"Wait! Don't go!!!" The third elder's voice echoed in vain, and he could hear the footsteps of Xue Xiao leaving.

As the strongest bounty hunter of the Demon Race, Xue Xiao has never been short of money, and no amount of bounty can impress him.

As a last resort, the third elder threw out the last bait: "Blood owl, listen up! This matter may have something to do with the original species from another world!!!"
