MTL - Virtue is Abundant-Chapter 30 night market
After the rain.
Midnight, Long Street.
The street lights are dim and warm.
There are cars passing by at high speed on the street.
Some people with rich nightlife laughed and walked slowly on the street.
For a moment.
Three figures appeared on the street.
Wu Xiaode leaned against the wall and let out a long breath.
"I'm back." He murmured.
"Finally back." Xia Huilan said with lingering fears.
"Sister, I need to rest." Xia Salaman said.
"Let's go to the alley, I'll put you back in the suitcase, and wait until I find a place with a socket to charge you." Xia Huilan said.
"Charging? Xia Salamander turned out to be charging?" Wu Xiaode said in surprise.
"She is compatible with many energy supplement methods, from solar energy to electric energy to nuclear energy - to be honest, she is actually acting like a spoiled child with me." Xia Huilan said.
After speaking, he dragged Xia Salaman into an alley.
Wu Xiaode remembered something, jumped on the fence and looked up at the big tree.
Before leaving, he put the suitcase full of money on the tree.
- The box is still there!
Wu Xiaode took off the suitcase, feeling a little more secure in his heart.
The house of myself and Sister Lan was burnt down.
If there is no money, even food and accommodation will be a problem.
Now that I have this money, I am not afraid.
He shook his head, picked up the phone and glanced at it.
A group message popped up:
"@All the members came back alive with a squeak."
This is a message from the club owner just now.
There are sporadic responses below.
Just as Wu Xiaode was about to reply, he suddenly remembered that in this S-rank club group, he is a master of martial arts and has a high spirit power.
- How can you come back so soon?
The club owner should be very strong, so he came back after killing him.
As for me, I'd better wait for more people to respond, so let's just mix in and respond together.
Thinking of this, he put down the phone again.
Waited for a while.
Xia Huilan walked out of the alley, dragged a suitcase, and smiled at him: "Finally passed the first night safely, where are we going now?"
"I'm so hungry, I want to eat."
"Me too."
…
Night market.
Wu Xiaode slumped on the chair, Xia Huilan sat aside, ticking off the menu.
It was 6 o'clock in the evening when I returned from the death cave, and now it is about 1 o'clock in the middle of the night.
From driving away the gangster, confessing to Zhao Junyu, talking to the female corpse in the burning building, saving Xia Huilan, killing three people in a row, joining the S-class club, going to the underground passage to fight the human-headed basilisk, completing the undead mission, and dealing with the one-horned three-eyed giant snake , yin guessing devil—
This is what happened in just 7 hours!
When Wu Xiaode thought about it, he felt incredible.
- I'm tired and hungry now.
It just so happened that Xia Huilan didn't have dinner, so when the two of them together, why don't they have a late night snack first.
"What do you want to order?" Xia Huilan handed the menu to Wu Xiaode.
Wu Xiaode glanced at it and shouted, "Boss, order it, just these dishes, hurry up!"
"Good!"
The boss responded from a distance, and hurried over to take away the menu.
"Is there a power strip?" Xia Huilan asked.
"Yes, it's over there." The boss pointed.
Xia Huilan pulled out a plug from the suitcase, pulled it over, and plugged it into the power strip.
Wu Xiaode suddenly heard a soft laughter coming from the suitcase.
"She's smiling?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"No, she's sleeping, this is her charging reminder sound." Xia Huilan shrugged.
She poured a cup of hot water for Wu Xiaode, and said with concern: "I saw many corpses beating you through remote monitoring. Are you not injured?"
"Help me see what's on my back." Wu Xiaode took off his clothes and turned his back.
"It's nothing." Xia Huilan read it carefully several times before she said.
"It's weird..." Wu Xiaode muttered.
When facing the one-horned three-eyed snake before, a bone-piercing pain came from his back, which made him wake up on the spot.
Otherwise, whether I can come back alive or not remains to be seen.
No, this time it was too much.
- I must never make such a mistake again in the future.
"Where else is it uncomfortable?" Xia Huilan asked.
"My wrist hurts a bit." Wu Xiaode said.
Xia Huilan took his hand and squeezed it slowly.
Wu Xiaode let her squeeze for him, narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slowly drew an arc.
When I was in junior high school, I once rolled down the stairs with others and broke my arm. It was Xia Huilan who had been taking care of herself.
After Xia Huilan went to university, she had been ill for a while, had a high fever, and was resting in bed at home.
That time, Wu Xiaode took leave to take care of her for a few days.
The two still have a tacit understanding on this kind of thing, and they both take it for granted.
after all.
No one else can take care of them.
"Next midnight, I'll accompany you again." Xia Huilan whispered.
"No, it's too dangerous." Wu Xiaode said.
Xia Huilan opened her beautiful eyes and stared at him with a warning expression on her face.
"Let's talk about it." Wu Xiaode said carelessly.
Although the soft rice is very fragrant, I must not let Sister Lan go next time.
Sister Lan didn't see the snake.
That horned three-eyed giant snake is so terrifying, it can manipulate people's thoughts.
It must have a lot of powerful abilities.
I'm really worried.
Wu Xiaode was thinking about it when he suddenly saw a familiar face talking to the boss not far away.
The man spoke for a while, and the boss nodded again and again.
After he finished speaking, the man walked over slowly and sat down at the table between the two of them.
"This is Miss Xia Huilan, I'm glad to meet, I'm Zhao Junyu."
Zhao Junyu said.
"What did you tell the boss?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"I added a few dishes—would you like to introduce me?" Zhao Junyu asked.
"Oh," Wu Xiaode took his hand out of Xia Huilan's hand, moved a chair for Zhao Junyu, and said, "Sit down."
"This is a friend of mine named Zhao Junyu. His hobby is to confess to people in public—this is Xia Huilan, a scientist." Wu Xiaode introduced them to the two.
"Hello, Miss Xia." The corner of Zhao Junyu's mouth twitched as he greeted politely.
"Hello." Xia Huilan laughed.
——Wu Xiaode introduced it so casually, at first glance, he regarded the other party as his own, so there was no need to be too vigilant.
"Miss Xia, I'm here tonight mainly for you." Zhao Junyu said.
"Me?" Xia Huilan asked in confusion.
"Yes, my family owns shares in Guangming United Manufacturing Technology Co., Ltd. and has a certain right to speak. It happened that Xiaowu told me about your situation. I would like to invite you to return to the company and continue to work." Zhao Junyu said.
Xia Huilan looked at Wu Xiaode.
"You decide." Wu Xiaode said.
Xia Huilan said, "I have written my resignation—"
Zhao Junyu interrupted her and said, "Don't worry, all the middle and high-level executives are exchanged. As long as you go back, you will be in charge of the company's scientific research direction."
Xia Huilan was startled.
Guangming United Manufacturing Technology Co., Ltd. is a behemoth. Is it crazy that the college student in front of him can say such a thing?
"Are you sure?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"Of course, we have studied the past scientific and technological achievements, and talked with many middle-level scientific research personnel overnight, and searched the company's R&D line patent catalog, and found that the real leader should be Miss Xia Huilan." Zhao Junyu said.
"He shouldn't brag." Wu Xiaode said to Xia Huilan.
"If I'm really in charge... what about my mentor?" Xia Huilan asked.
"This is what happened tonight. The police have already experienced the corpse and came to the conclusion that he had hallucinations from a drug overdose and jumped off the building and fell to his death." Zhao Junyu said.
Xia Huilan was stunned, she dug out her phone and started looking for messages.
"Drug use? I really don't know about this..."
She flipped through the messages on the phone screen and murmured softly.
Wu Xiaode and Zhao Junyu looked at each other and didn't say a word in tacit understanding.
At this time, a few small dishes were served.
Wu Xiaode grabbed the bowl and went to put a few bowls of rice, and the three of them started eating.
Zhao Junyu didn't eat much. He just used chopsticks a few times, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, and started drinking the tea in his own cup.
"I need to finish that..." Xia Huilan murmured after reading the message.
Wu Xiaode looked up at her subconsciously.
Yes.
According to Xia Huilan's original words, Xia Salamander is a type 92024 combat robot, and there is a more terrifying model that has not been completed.
—Type 92025.
Xia Huilan clapped her hands and said determinedly, "Xiao Wu, I'm going to create a stronger girl for you to use at night."
Zhao Junyu subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Wu Xiaode.
"You? At night? With?" He asked in an incomprehensible tone.
"I can do it myself." Wu Xiaode shook his head.
Although…
But I can't let Sister Lan take another risk.
"Xiao Wu, don't worry too much in the face of danger, you really need something to help you, otherwise your consumption will be too fast." Xia Huilan said in a positive tone.
Zhao Junyu looked at Wu Xiaode and Xia Huilan.
Both of them looked serious.
Zhao Junyu's eyebrows moved, and he began to think about the specific meaning of these words.
Wu Xiaode was defeated by Xia Huilan's eyes, Gu Zuo said:
"Maybe the place I teleported is extremely dangerous. If it were another place, there would be no such terrifying monsters."
"That's a good excuse, but the world is full of unknowns, so you must plan for the worst." Xia Huilan insisted.
Wu Xiaode lowered his head, suddenly thinking of the group announcement of the S-class club.
"Protecting life is the first principle."
Since life preservation is the first principle, it proves that no matter where you go, there will be danger.
According to what the undead man said—
That was the age of myths.
There are only demons, no gods.
Demons are gods. They destroy everything and eat people for pleasure.
So it's already obvious how dangerous that world is.
However, there is no need to say such a thing to make Xia Huilan more worried.
He put away his mobile phone and said sternly, "Sister Lan, I won't have any problems. As for you - you have already left that technology company, so there is no need to go back."
Xia Huilan didn't speak for a while.
Zhao Junyu said, "To be honest, that company is the strongest mecha research company in the country, and only it is worthy of Miss Xia Huilan's research and development capabilities. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"
"It's too tired, it's unnecessary, she doesn't want to do it herself, don't force her." Wu Xiaode glared at him and said.
"Xiao Wu, you are making progress, and others will also make progress. What if one day that world merges with ours?" Zhao Junyu said seriously.
Wu Xiaode was shocked.
I really never thought about this angle.
Could it be true?
He gave Zhao Junyu a serious questioning look.
Zhao Junyu nodded worriedly, and sighed, "This is the most popular speculation at the moment."
"I want to think about it again." Xia Huilan hesitated.
The sound of a crow suddenly sounded in Wu Xiaode's ear.
The crow's spirit had been quietly resting on his shoulders, and then he flapped his wings and said, "Hey, Xiao Wu, I'm exhausted. If I want to go back to draw soul power, I'll give you the soul power first."
The Book of the Dead opens.
Lines of ice crystals emitting cold air appeared in front of Wu Xiaode's eyes:
"The spirit of the crow has distributed part of the accumulated soul power to you."
"Your soul power limit has been raised."
"Current soul power: 7/7."
Crow yawned, flapped his wings and said, "10 points of soul power is a dividing line. I will strive for us to spend the night together tomorrow night, and do more soul power upgrades."
"Okay, you can go back to rest - how can I find you tomorrow night?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"There is a wall on your Book of the Undead, and I will leave you a contact information on that wall - it is the only medium for you to connect to the spiritual world." Raven said.
That is the wish wall.
"Okay, keep in touch." Wu Xiaode said.
"See you!"
The spirit of the crow flapped its wings and flew high into the sky and disappeared.
