Death Progress Bar

On the lively New Year's Eve, in a small square not far from a certain residential area, a brown doll bear with a bow tied around his neck came out of a public toilet in the corner, carrying a backpack in his hand, looking around Very cute.

The people who came to the square to celebrate the New Year's Eve quickly noticed his existence, and turned their heads to look over. Some children who were restless couldn't help screaming, shouting "Xiong Xiong, Xiong Xiong" and dragged their parents to this place. While walking, I wanted to come over and have a close contact with the doll bear.

However, before they got close, the silly-looking doll bear suddenly stopped turning its head and looking around, ran towards the event vendors around the square, and then stopped at an old man with a strong purpose. In front of the balloon stand, he gestured and told, and finally took out a large number of pink bills from his backpack, and stuffed them boldly into the old man's hand.

The old man was moved, and bowed to thank the doll bear, then picked up his plastic stool and money box, left the small tricycle tied with a lot of balloons, and left.

In the next second, the doll bear put his backpack on the small tricycle full of balloons, stepped on the car, and skillfully rode the small tricycle out of the street vendors, along the roadside shops and stalls... and started shopping while riding .

Onlookers: "..." Hey, is there something wrong with your painting style?

"Candies, prank fireworks, lanterns, New Year's banners...there are so many tricks, so it's so lively outside during the New Year's Eve?" Shi Jin thought while hiding in a doll costume, looking very relaxed on the outside, but in fact he was already fast Driven crazy by the progress bar that is still slowly increasing.

Xiao Shi, who had been silent since entering the square, finally made a movement, and said excitedly: "It's located! The baby hasn't entered the residential area yet, it's parked at the gate of the community!"

Shi Jin's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly threw out a few red tickets to buy out the prank fireworks at a certain booth, piled the things on the car, rode on the car, and brought a car full of balloon candy toys, and swept across the small town like a gust of wind. Square, heading towards the residential area.

Onlookers: "..."

The kid who was about to come over: "...Wow! The bear is running away, I want the bear!"

……

The community where Chen Qing invited Lianjun to eat is called Tuanjie. It is an old community with small area, chaotic greenery, narrow roads and few parking spaces.

Gua stopped the car at the corner of the street some distance away from the community, looked around, and said, "The buildings here are too complicated, and people may hide everywhere. Once ambushed, it will be difficult to escape."

Gua Er, who was sitting in the co-pilot, added: "The community is too old, the internal layout is small, and it seems that there is no elevator yet. Is the leader of Black Rose crazy? Ask Chen Qing to set the place to eat here, isn't it afraid that we will be suspicious?"

Lian Jun listened to their discussion, glanced at the bustling crowds on the street, and asked, "Has the staff been arranged?"

Gua San, who was sitting on his left, pressed the tablet and replied: "The rescuers from Chen Qing's family are ready and ready to act at any time. The officials and our people have also successfully ambushed around the community, and are now scrambling for help." Suspicious people and vehicles around, the internal situation of the community is unknown, and we are still waiting for the feedback from the early investigators.”

Lian Jun nodded to express his understanding, looked at the time, and called Chen Qing.

Gua Jiu, who was sitting on the other side of Lian Jun, immediately began to locate Chen Qing's specific location.

The phone was connected quickly, and Chen Qing's voice was as usual, and asked: "Mr. Lian, are you here? My last soup is almost out of the pot, this time you have to try my handicrafts, my soup has To put it bluntly, the material is sufficient, and it took more than half a month to select the material alone."

half a month.

Lian Jun extracted the important information, looked at the New Year's blessings pasted on the glass of the shop on the street, the image of Shi Jin making a snowman in high spirits appeared in his mind, after a little bit of distraction, he quickly came back to his senses, and said following his words: " Then I must have a good taste. I haven't arrived yet, the road conditions here are not good, the road is narrow, and the snow on the side of the road has not been cleaned thoroughly.

"It's okay, it's my fault. I just thought about getting together with you, and forgot to consider the road conditions here." Chen Qing comforted, and there were the sounds of spatulas and TV sets in the background sound, which was very real , "Then you drive slowly, call me when you are almost there, and I will tell you which building it is."

Lian Jun took the opportunity to say: "After the meeting, you can come out and pick me up. I will wait for you at the gate of the community."

Chen Qing was quiet for a few seconds, and then he said as usual: "Anyway, you come here first, and then call me when you arrive. I'm going to start the soup here, so hang up first, come here quickly." Hang up the phone directly.

Gua Jiu stopped flailing his hands on the computer keyboard, frowned and said: "It can be roughly confirmed that the phone signal is indeed coming from the area around the community, but it is impossible to pinpoint which building, the call time is too short. "

"It's enough to confirm that the person is in the community." Lian Jun put down the phone and looked at Gua San on the left, "Black Rose has been preparing for this meal for more than half a month, and it is likely that the residents in the community have undergone a major change. Let those who enter the community to investigate the situation be careful."

Gua San nodded and buried himself in sending messages to his subordinates.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, the person who entered the community to investigate sent back a message-everything was normal, in other words, the person who entered the community did not find anything.To be more precise, Jun Lian's guess is probably correct. Black Rose may have completely changed the residents of the community. The residents who are now active in the community are probably pretended by Black Rose.

Everyone frowned, Lian Jun nodded his knees, and ordered Gua Yi to drive closer to the community, and at the same time called Chen Qing.

The phone was connected quickly, and after Chen Qing responded, Lian Jun said that he had arrived at the gate of the community and asked Chen Qing to come out to pick him up.Chen Qing refused very embarrassingly, saying that he had a sudden stomachache and was dealing with physical problems, and then reported the specific address of the house he was in, saying that he had opened the door in advance and asked Lian Jun to find him directly.

Everyone in the car: "..."

"What should I do now, wait or go in?" Gua Er asked.

Gua San answered: "If you wait, Mr. Chen will probably call later to say that he is constipated."

Gua Jiu also followed suit: "If we can go in, we will go straight into the tiger's mouth."

Everyone turned their attention to Lian Jun, waiting for him to make up his mind.

"Wait." Lianjun replied, his tone was affirmative, his attitude was so calm that he was indifferent, "Black Rose wants to lure us into a trap, if we keep moving, they will definitely compromise, so wait, Chen Qing will come out, the community cannot enter, inside The situation is unknown, going in is to deliver food."

Everyone was sure when they heard the words, and waited quietly.

3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes... Chen Qing didn't call for a long time, Lian Jun was also very stable, and he didn't call Chen Qing either.

The situation was imperceptibly deadlocked. Outside the car was an old street with a strong New Year flavor but few pedestrians. Inside the car was silence. A window seemed to separate two worlds.

……

"Ma's!"

In a room on the second floor of the shop opposite the community, the leader of Black Rose, Wang Mei, couldn't help but take off her earphones, smashed the table hard, and cursed angrily: "This Mr. Lian is too slippery, you are so cautious when you see an old friend!"

The deputy sitting next to him didn't expect Mr. Lian to be so careful. He didn't even see Chen Qing, and he didn't even want to enter the gate of the community. He frowned and said, "Brother Wang, what should we do now, are we wasting time with him? "

"What a waste! Mr. Lian is the one who cherishes his life the most. He has seen more traps than we have earned in our lifetime. If we continue to spend more money, do you believe that he can just break the appointment and go back to his lair to hide?" Wang said. Mei choked out angrily, walked to the window with a sullen face, looked at the car Lian Jun was sitting at the gate of the opposite community, gritted her teeth and said, "Go! Ask Chen Qing to call Lian Jun again and try to coax Lian Jun into the car." In the community, if you really can't fool around, let Chen Qing come out to pick up people!"

The deputy was a little worried when he heard the words, and said: "But what if Chen Qing comes out, but Mr. Lian still refuses to enter the community, and even asks to take Chen Qing to eat somewhere else?"

This worry is not unreasonable. With Mr. Lian's level of caution, it is really possible for him to coax his old friend to give up the big meal he made by himself and eat at his place instead.

Then when Chen Qing is in Mr. Lian's hands, what are they still singing?

Wang Mei's expression became even uglier when she heard that, and she looked at the car Lian Jun was sitting in with dark eyes, picked up the gun on the cabinet, wiped it vigorously, and said: "Chen Qing can't be allowed to follow Lian Jun, send someone to Give him a good warning and let him remember who owns his child now. If Mr. Lian insists on not entering the community for a while, then we will kill him right here! Go tell Chen Qing that even if he can’t trick Mr. Lian into entering In the community, we should also trick him into getting out of the car or open the window, give the sniper an angle of attack, and tell him that if Mr. Lian does not die today, then his children will not live to see the sun tomorrow!"

The deputy was still a little worried, and said, "But..."

"It's nothing!" Wang Mei turned her head to interrupt him, and pointed her gun at him, "Or are you just going to let Mr. Lian go just like that? You know, I don't keep cowards in my staff."

The deputy was so scared that he shut up quickly, and didn't dare to say anything more. After coaxing him a few words, he picked up the phone and contacted the subordinates in the community.

……

Inside the car, Gua Yi withdrew his gaze from looking around, and said: "There are five locations suitable for sniping nearby, the nearest one is on the second floor of the opposite shop and the second floor of the shop behind the vehicle, one of these two places can't be seen clearly when the lights are turned off. The indoor situation, a person who turns on the lights and draws the curtains, is very suspicious."

"Find someone to infiltrate it." Lian Jun ordered, rubbing his fingers on the phone, and suddenly asked, "What time is it?"

Everyone was taken aback, Gua San, who happened to be looking at the tablet, glanced at the time and replied, "It's 06:30."

They set off around five o'clock, and it took half an hour to get here, and then they tried to delay for almost an hour. Now it's dark and the pedestrians on the road are gradually decreasing. It's a good time to do something. .

Lian Jun nodded to show his understanding, and ordered: "Send someone to approach here slowly, and prepare to fire at the gate of the community. Let the officials find a way to clear the street, so as not to accidentally injure innocent people later."

Gua San nodded to express his understanding.

The phone rang suddenly, attracting the attention of everyone in the car.

Lian Jun glanced at the phone and said, "It's Chen Qing's call." Then he pressed the connect button.

Chen Qing called to ask Lian Jun why he hadn't arrived yet. Lian Jun said that he was buying fruit outside the community, and the reason was that it was not good to go empty-handed during Chinese New Year. Asked Chen Qing if he was free, and said that the arrangement of the buildings in the Unity Community was too irregular, and he didn't know the way, so he needed someone to pick him up.

Chen Qing laughed and teased him a few words, then found some excuses, pointed out the way in detail, and still hoped that Mr. Lian could come in by himself.

Lian Jun continued to lament his road idiot, saying that he just couldn't find his way.

The two tacitly acted on each other, and their tone of voice was that good friends are about to reunite, but Wang Mei, who was eavesdropping, wanted to vomit blood more and more, cursing Lianjun for pretending to be a fake and telling lies.

As the boss of Mie, when did Lian Jun learn this kind of sophistication among ordinary people?He also buys fruit, Mr. Lian is so old, do you know where the door of the fruit shop opens?Telling a lie sounds like the truth. If you have the ability to say you want to buy fruit, why don’t you have the ability to get out of the car!

"Wait no more! Let Chen Qing come out to pick up the people, everyone prepares, find an opportunity to ambush Mr. Lian, and drive a few cars over by the way, once you succeed, everyone retreats immediately!" Wang Mei finally couldn't listen to it, and fell down after giving orders. phone, and personally aimed a gun at the car Lian Jun was sitting in.

……

In the end, Chen Qing came out to pick up the person. He was alone, wearing very thin clothes and a funny apron, which was very trying to hide it.

He walked up to Lian Jun's car, and while the people hiding in the dark couldn't see his face, he mouthed to Lian Jun inside the car, and said silently: There are people ambushing inside the gate of the community. There are guns, there are snipers nearby, don't get out of the car.

Lian Jun nodded to express his understanding, but said in his mouth: "Sorry, I have to let you come out to pick me up."

"There's nothing to apologize for. I was sloppy and forgot that it's not easy to find a place in this neighborhood." Chen Qing's tone remained the same, with a smile on his face, but a little anxious in his heart.

He was very afraid, afraid that Lian Jun would really take risks for himself.In fact, he had already resigned himself to his fate, he only asked Lian Jun to rescue his child, and then send his wife and child to a safe place, and he didn't care much about his own safety.

If you die, you will die. People who have been on the road, even if they quit halfway, are already prepared in their hearts to be pulled into the dark world again. He is already very content with living the life of ordinary people for these years.

And if Jun Lian hadn't protected him back then, he wouldn't have had such a peaceful life. He didn't want Jun Lian to get hurt because of him.

Thinking of this, he slowly straightened up, instead of taking the initiative to pull Lian Jun's car door as Wang Mei ordered, instead he took a step back and signaled Lian Jun to go quickly with his eyes and leave him alone.

Lian Jun frowned, shook his head at him, and then signaled to Gua Er to open the door and pull Chen Qing into the car. The others were ready to cover, and they did not forget to speak to appease Wang Mei who might be eavesdropping on their conversation: "Wait Yes, I'll get out of the car right away, the gate of this community is too narrow, it seems that the car can't get in."

However, Chen Qing thought that he was really going to get out of the car, so he stepped forward and pressed the car door anxiously, his action was very obvious.

"Damn it, what is Chen Qing doing! Why didn't he go to pull Lian Jun's car door, but blocked the car door? Did he not want his child's life?" Wang Mei was so angry that she wanted to hold Chen Qing's hand Go and open Lian Jun's car door, and drag Lian Jun to his gun.

The deputy standing next to him suddenly put down his phone in a panic, and said anxiously: "Brother Wang, it's not good, there are people around from the outside, and several teams of our brothers guarding the outer circle have lost contact!"

Wang Mei's expression changed suddenly, and she immediately understood that she had been turned into an army by Lian Jun. The plan had already been revealed, and her expression became ruthless. She changed her sniper and aimed at Chen Qing beside the car, and was about to clean up this useless trash first. .

Click.

He loaded the bullet.

click.

Gua Er gently pushed open the car door, ready to drag Chen Qing into the car.

All the snipers hiding in the dark pointed their guns at Lian Jun's car.

Time seemed to stand still. The Black Rose staff ambushing in the community and Lian Jun's subordinates who were pretending to be pedestrians approaching on the street were all carefully watching the situation on the other side of the car. The atmosphere was pulled to the extreme, and everyone was waiting for a signal to start a war.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Shi Jin pedaled his tricycle crazily. Seeing Lian Jun's progress bar suddenly soaring to 999.5, he almost suffocated in fright. Seeing a familiar figure of a vehicle finally appeared in front of him, he braked suddenly without even thinking about it. He turned around and pulled out a prank from the car. Fireworks, let Xiao Si add a powerful buff to himself, ignite the fireworks and throw them there vigorously.

boom!

呵呵味——

The fireworks flew out in a parabola, and hit the middle of the old street with a bang. After landing, a circle of ribbons exploded with a bang, and then colorful smoke rose and spread rapidly, covering part of the street.

Snapped!

After Shi Jin finished throwing the fireworks, he stretched out his bear's paw, and rang the loudspeaker on the tricycle hard, turning the sound to the maximum.

"Congratulations on getting rich, congratulations on being wonderful... selling balloons, cute and beautiful balloons... please come here for the best ones, please go away for the bad ones..."

The singing and hawking were heard alternately, piercing the night sky of the city, and igniting everyone's ears.

what are these?

Everyone was dumbfounded, and before they could react, there was another bang, bang, bang, a bunch of prank fireworks that were lit and smashed together, some fell to the gate of the community, and some hit the shops across the street On the signboards, some were thrown directly into the gate of the community, the sound of ribbons exploding and colorful smoke flying everywhere, and the street instantly became hazy and dreamy.

Wang Mei, who was about to pull the trigger, was dumbfounded, her field of vision was full of "fairy spirit", not to mention sniping people, he almost had double images when he saw things.

Gua Er, who was pulling the car door, was also stunned, but he was stunned for a second before returning to his senses. Taking advantage of the current chaotic situation, he decisively pushed the door, got out of the car with half-steps, pulled Chen Qing into the car, moved the seat back, and stretched out his hand Put Chen Qing down, help him put his legs back into the car, and then slam the door hard, all in one go, taking only five seconds to go back and forth.

"Drive, get out!" He said, and couldn't help turning his head to look in the direction of the singing.

Others who were not driving also did the same.

In the colorful smoke dancing with the wind, a doll bear was approaching on a tricycle, throwing candy fireworks while walking, and occasionally dismantled two balloons and put them in the air. It was a real "bear kid".

"Damn it! Whose kid is running here to play pranks on New Year's Eve, it's really... so cruel! It just saved us a fight." Gua Er couldn't help but praise.

Gua San frowned, and said: "He messed up Black Rose's plan, and he might be retaliated against, so someone must be sent to protect him."

"Then send someone there!" As soon as Gua opened his mouth, he quickly turned the steering wheel, and before Black Rose could react, he reversed the car, turned around, and with a puff of exhaust, he left this place of right and wrong without looking back.

Lian Jun raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes were still locked in the colorful smoke - I don't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the action of the teddy bear throwing something was familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"Mr. Lian." Chen Qing, who was crouching on the co-pilot, suddenly called out to him.

Lian Jun came back to his senses, retracted his gaze, threw away the inexplicable thoughts in his head, looked at Chen Qing, who was full of survivors, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, someone has already rescued your children, and there are not many people guarding them. , will be rescued safely."

Chen Qing nodded, got up following the strength of Gua Er, squeezed into the passenger seat, nodded gratefully to Lianjun, and said, "Thank you, I thought I wouldn't be able to come back this time."

Lian Jun comforted him a few words, thinking of Shi Jin who was still alone in the clubhouse, he suddenly felt flustered.

Community gate.

After Lian Jun left, the members of Black Rose, who were belatedly aware of it, and Lian Jun's subordinates who were pretending to be passersby, immediately became a melee after Lian Jun left.Officials were rushing here in large numbers, Wang Mei was so angry that she almost smashed the house when she couldn't ambush, but finally her deputy persuaded him and pulled him to evacuate.

Until she safely boarded the evacuation car, Wang Mei still felt unwilling, and ordered harshly: "Tell the sniper not to retreat! Find that bear who set off fireworks indiscriminately, and kill him!"

The deputy was surprised when he heard that, and said worriedly: "Now there are officials and exterminated people everywhere, it's too dangerous for us to keep people here."

"Are you the boss or am I the boss? Do as I say!" Wang Mei pointed a gun at him angrily, and said viciously, "I said that someone must die today, and you don't want the person who dies to be yourself."

The deputy swallowed hard, shook his head, took out his cell phone, and called the sniper in front of him.

Shi Jin was riding a tricycle on the old street, and wanted to leave this street as soon as possible.He could see that there were no ordinary pedestrians on this street at all, it was all gangsters and white gangs. If he didn't withdraw, he might be drawn into the flames of war.

"Come on, the progress bar is starting to rise!" Xiao Shi suddenly screamed.

Shi Jin was shocked, almost stepped on the pedal of the tricycle, and said, "What's the matter, isn't Lian Jun's progress bar starting to drop!"

"It's not baby's, it's yours! Your progress bar is increasing! The speed is very fast!" Xiao Si broke his voice and called out, frightened to the point of death.

Shi Jin hurriedly looked at his progress bar, and saw that it was soaring up at a speed of 10 points per second, and now it has risen to more than 900, his heart sank, thinking of something, he turned his head and looked around, and quickly locked on Several possible sniper locations, let go of the tricycle when the progress bar reached 980, and rolled on the spot after jumping off the car, rolling towards the street.

puff.

The bullet flew through the air and shot into the ground not far away.
