The two cars drove on various bad roads in the wilderness for three days before entering the limits of Flowing Light City.

They did not return to the city directly from the cargo area, but made a large circle to the southwest, almost reaching the desolate land affected by nuclear radiation in the Bone and Blood Area.

If I had to tell people where I had been during this time, I would say that I was in the bone and blood area hunting alien species.

Off-road vehicles and pickup trucks turned from the edge of the Bone and Blood District and drove into the Pharaoh District, and then into Kabukicho.

The night sky had become starless and it was raining. The neon streets that had been gone for more than a month came into view before their eyes.

Traffic flows on the noisy streets, and the densely packed high-rise buildings on both sides are filled with giant neon signs, dazzling lights of various colors, electronic screens with changing images, and traditional lanterns and banners.

On the pale zebra crossing at the intersection, groups of passers-by in various costumes, holding Yakuza black umbrellas or the recently popular transparent plastic umbrellas, hurried past like a group of ghosts under the pretentious gaze of the Metropolitan Police's cavalry traffic police.

The night rain splashed on those umbrellas, and the scattered raindrops were carried away by the wind.

"Ah, Kabukicho." Sakai Kao said with emotion, "The wilderness is great, but I still like Kabukicho."

"Lorna, drive slower." Gu He was paying attention to other things, "And you should change your wiper."

A seat belt has already been fastened around his waist.

"I know it's broken, but I have feelings for it and I won't change it." Lorna gave him the middle finger while driving.

The two cars did not stop and drove from Renqing Street back to Shouhui Street.

They'd been gone for a while, but nothing seemed to have changed here.

Mr. Hirata and other bosozokus were still swaggering through the city on motorcycles, the Game Gang's Hell Game Hall was still very noisy, there were still men walking around with call girls in their arms in some alleys, and homeless people and street rats were rummaging through the trash.

The neon signboard of Licai Club is still flashing, and the figures of the leading cowherds appear on the advertising screen.

On the street in front of the club, Jane was still shouting low-tech ideas to passers-by:

"You read countless news information, business information, and entertainment information every day. Do you really feel anything? Or do you just forget about it and feel tired? Do you think that after reading some information, you will participate in this society? No.

, you didn’t, you were just overloaded with information! People were using information to control all your energy and time.”

Not far away tonight, there are people from the Doomsday Clan who are also shouting, as if they are robbing business.

The doomsday man was wearing a protective suit and a gas mask on his face, which made his voice hoarse: "The Almighty Buck said that now is the end, but an even greater catastrophe is coming! No one on the ground can escape

past."

"It's a flood of information." Jane shouted immediately, "Too much information is drowning us!"

When a group of people got out of the car and walked by, Gu He said hello to Jian, but Jian just waved in response and had no time to pay attention to him.

They walked into the familiar alley next to Licai and walked towards the fish pond, when they saw several children running towards them in surprise.

"Boss, boss!" Xingtong shouted twice excitedly. Mike, Feimi and Moriko were all there.

Lorna picked up Star Child and rubbed her head, "It's good that you brat is not dead yet."

Everyone said hello, and Gu He now looked at Mike as if he was seeing a savior, "Mike, the thermos cup gang is going to do something good."

"...Yes!" Mike was stunned at first, and then bowed deeply. Happiness came too suddenly, "Boss, no problem, I can recruit a hundred people for you tomorrow. The Red Rain House is waiting to close.

Bar!"

"No, don't do that, wait for me to arrange it first." Gu He hurriedly called out, Goose has money, but he doesn't.

Surrounded by several children happily, the group returned to the fish pond deep in the alley.

The izakaya was still the same, with the neon sign beside the door flashing ineffectively, a red curtain with the words "Fishpond Izakaya" printed on it, and the lively sounds coming from inside.

Behind the L-shaped bar, Fan Debao was busy in the small kitchen, wearing a dark blue chef uniform with the words "Heart wide and body fat" printed on it.

The high stools next to the bar are almost full, and they are all old acquaintances, eating food, drinking and spanking.

Lao Cai is selling the long-sold inflatable breast augmentation device to Old Dog Jackson again. Today, Old Dog is wearing a Jianggu-style sailor school uniform, a white coat and a blue skirt, showing off his thick, hairy, dark thighs.

Nimue was also there, and she was a little excited when she heard it, "Lao Cai, please give it to me at a cheaper price. This kind of toy sounds very fun."

This sudden joy fell from the sky, and Lao Cai immediately beamed, "Okay, whoever follows me, I'll give you a 20% discount!"

"I am willing to admit defeat, but I have no money for the time being." Sakai Shukichi was arguing with the old man Kitano who also came.

Old man Kitano may have just visited his grandson in Licai's basement, and then came over to the fish pond to have a few drinks. He also just played cards with Shukichi Sakai, "Damn guy, be careful, the middle finger of your other hand is also cut off."

."

The three-toned wooden box TV painted with swear words and insults was playing a singing program.

Lindsay and a young and beautiful green-haired girl were sitting on the sofa over there, chatting as if they were talking about a movie.

Even Vivian didn't know who that girl was, she seemed to be a new love.

"Back." Gu He stood at the door of the fish pond and couldn't help but sigh.

After spending so much time in the wilderness, I really miss this place. After all, the food is good and the accommodation is good. There are sofas to lie on and TVs to watch. Even Lao Fan’s fat face full of flesh and blood looks kind of friendly. I really can’t believe it.

But this feeling didn't last for more than a minute before it was broken by Lao Fan's foul mouth: "There are swarms of wild dogs."

"Lao Fan, open a bottle of Fenggu for sister." Lorna found a seat at the bar and sat down. "If you're so verbose, I'll buy you a bottle of Jade Bird beer instead."

As soon as Nimue saw them coming back, she whined without energy, turned to Lao Cai and said, "I don't want that device anymore."

Lao Cai was just about to ask Lao Fan to buy expensive wine, but now he was stunned, "Nimiao, don't play tricks on your Uncle Cai..."

The boxer walked to the sofa with his guitar in his arms. He didn't care that Lindsay and the girl were about to kiss, so he sat down and occupied a large area.

Vivian walked to sit next to Nimue. Nimue looked at her and said happily: "I haven't finished it yet. I'm almost tired of playing." Vivian raised her elbows on the bar and rested her hands on her.

Touching his cheek: "We have met our opponent."

"Mr. Kitano, he is drunk..." Kao Sakai apologized to the old man Kitano on behalf of his brother.

Almost everyone in the entire fish pond is here, only the real otaku, Cookie, is missing.

Not long after, Kumiko Ayane, who was wearing a printed kimono, came over from Reicai after hearing the news. She welcomed everyone back one by one with a smile, and announced that she would pay for the drinks tonight, which made Shuyoshi Sakai cheer.

Lorna didn't cheer, but she did order another bottle of Tongu and a few more bowls of ramen.

At this time, Ayane Kumiko looked at Gu He who was also eating noodles and looked him up and down. She knew before that he was already a second programmer. She smiled and said:

"Xiaohe, there is something. Miss Elizabeth Sterling made an appointment with you very early. She asked me to notify her as soon as you come back. I just called her and she will come tomorrow."

What? Gu He froze in shock. Why didn't she mention it when he contacted her? Didn't she forget to learn from the angel...

"What does she want to do?" Lorna was also confused.

"Cowboy, what do you want to do?" asked Vivian, who was not far away.

"No, she doesn't seem like someone who would do that..." Lorna muttered thoughtfully.

"I feel like it." Vivian asked Miss Caiyin, "I also want to order Dahe for one night, just that kind of business. Can it be done?" Several children are still there, otherwise she would have said more.

Be more straightforward.

"No!" Gu He became anxious upon hearing this. Young people don't have moral integrity to engage in this kind of business!

There was laughter at the bar. Seeing that he was unhappy, Kumiko Ayane said, "Let's wait for two days until he has some free time."

"Then I'll make a reservation first and wait in line behind Liz." Vivian blinked at Gu He and made a tut.

Lorna made a sound, rolled her eyes, and just drank and ate noodles.

The fish pond was bustling until early in the morning, and the people in the house gradually dispersed.

And Gu He still has something to do, and he has to finish it before he can leave. The strange person in the dungeon, Sophia.

Before Nimue left, she whispered to him: "While you were away, I pierced her in several places, got her a little ghost rat brain slave, and did it this way and that. Originally

I also wanted to dye her hair, but after thinking about it, blonde hair suits her temperament."

"Okay." Gu He was helpless. He didn't agree with or like Nimue's approach.

It's not that he has any feelings for Sophia anymore, but why bother? Killing someone is just a nod.

But Nimue laughed at his reaction, "I really enjoyed it."

Gu He refused to comment. In this world, a world where almost everyone is a criminal, things are not always the same. It can be said to be a kind of evil behavior to demand that a person be treated as a normal person.

Be it Vivian or Nimue, they have never lived in a normal world for a day, so how can they be normal?

Or maybe you can say that this is normal for them.

After Nimue left and before going down to the dungeon, Gu He and Miss Caiyin discussed the new procedure again.

Before, Miss Ayin only knew that he had an adventure and installed a new program "Cup", but now she heard him explain clearly what happened. But his statement was basically what Lorna, Sakai Kao and others knew.

"This matter must be kept secret." Kumiko Ayane thought about it and gave Gu He instructions. The public statement in the future is that it is a variant of Tentacle Edge, which allows the doll to have stronger tentacles and can be used flexibly for attacks.

and defense.

Don’t call this new program Cup, just call it...

"How about ten times the tentacles?" Miss Caiyin actually has no education, and her naming skills are about the same as Brother Zhuang's.

Gu He didn't care, the name was the Holy Grail, the thermos cup or the tenfold tentacles, it couldn't change the nature of the program.

According to the introduction of the installation package, each level of the Holy Grail program has a function, and the primary function is neurotherapy.

He watched Miss Caiyin walking back to Licai, and was silent for the time being. He should first find out what was going on.
