Chapter 199 The Fourth Element (5,500 words)(1/3)
We are obviously the same age, but I may be a few days older than Yang Jia.
Why does she always seem so reliable most of the time?
Xiao Xiao was subconsciously thinking, maybe it was because Yang Jia had been in the world of strangers for a longer time?
From the perspective of the indigenous people, foreigners are all crazy.
That is, Yang Jia has been crazy longer than himself?
But in any case, after the long time just now, the depressed mood he felt when he just walked down the building was relieved a lot, especially since Yang Jia obviously knew that he was different from her, but he didn't
After asking too many questions, even being wary of himself, he actively agreed to help him take a look at the core of the city, which made Xiao Xiao feel a little relieved.
The feeling of emptiness in my heart is still there, but somehow I no longer feel so powerless.
"So……"
He considered it and said, "How should I look at it?"
"There are many ways."
Yang Jia looked at Xiao Xiao's empty eyes, which seemed to have some energy, and her mood was a little relaxed, and she said:
"But we need to discuss it carefully."
"As for you, you are now the owner of the city's lord contract. Within the scope allowed by the city's will, you have the highest level of authority among all the strangers in Black Gate City, but it also means that you are subject to more restrictions than other strangers.
People have more constraints.”
"And for me, essentially, I don't belong in Black Gate City."
"Now in Black Gate City, you can do some things and communicate with the city's will, but I am more like a temporary worker."
"If I were to investigate the core of the city, it would easily arouse the city's vigilance, and it might be regarded as an invasion."
"Perhaps, before I find anything, you guys have already received the order to expel me or hunt me down."
"..."
Xiao Xiao listened, his eyes flickered slightly, and suddenly said: "What about Mr. Ye?"
"Can he help us find out something?"
"..."
Suddenly hearing Xiao Xiao mention Mr. Ye, Yang Jia was slightly startled and saw something in Xiao Xiao's eyes.
For Xiao Xiao, this is a very simple matter.
Why did Yang Jia suddenly learn about his identity?
There is no doubt that Yang Jia didn't know this before. Otherwise, with her recklessness, she would not be able to pretend so well that she, an insight, would know nothing. Then, there is only one possibility for her to know these things.
, that is, when she was meeting her father and asking about these things, another person told her this, so she called herself immediately.
Judging from the current layout of Black Gate City, Mr. Ye is undoubtedly the most suspicious.
"His brain is still good after all..."
Yang Jia sighed inwardly.
Strangely enough, after hearing what Mr. Ye said, she thought she would be nervous or vigilant. After all, Xiao Xiao was in a state she had never heard of before. Every stranger was
The chosen one, involuntarily, unexpectedly appeared under the influence of external forces and entered the circle of strangers. This was as conspicuous as a duck squatting in a henhouse.
But after she really came into contact with Xiao Xiao, she couldn't muster that energy.
The reason why Mr. Ye told himself those things was to make himself mentally prepared in advance. Even if he found out some problems with Xiao Xiao, he wanted to keep himself from reporting it to Dante for the sake of the old president, and ensured that he would not report it to Dante.
Advancement of the Gate City Noah Project.
I was already wary in my heart, but now that I have met him, I can't be wary anymore.
Probably... no matter how you look at this guy, he has more of a twisted temperament than other strangers?
"Mr. Ye does know some things, but he probably doesn't know much more than you do."
Yang Jia thought about it and said slowly: "What is certain is that the Pioneer Project has the participation of the old president."
"But to what extent the old president was involved, even Mr. Ye didn't know. At that time, Mr. Ye had not yet been deeply involved in the old president's research and plans. Now he only knows about the black gate.
The investigation of the city core has been carried out since the time of the old president. Of course, the old president's investigation was not pleasant, especially before his death, he fell into deep confusion."
"..."
"Old president?"
Xiao Xiao was slightly startled when he heard this, and his brows furrowed momentarily.
Immediately, I thought of many things, such as the old butler I saw in that small building. He was originally a researcher of the Black Forest. Since the old president bought him as his butler, it does mean that the old president may have already
There is a connection with the Black Forest.
Moreover, many of the materials in the small building are also summaries and records of the aboriginal world by the old president.
Looking at it this way, the old president was indeed the first to start studying the core of Black Gate City.
However, until now, I have not had time to begin to understand things beyond the old president Noah's plan.
It seems that I still need to go to that small building a few more times...
"I can have a hunch that some of the things involved in Black Gate City may be far deeper than I thought before."
Yang Jia nodded slightly and sighed: "My teacher, the old president, has always been a stubborn person, but he is also very smart. Moreover, before he passed away, I had less contact with him.
I don’t know what he studied in the last few years. Perhaps all these questions require us to understand the things he left behind bit by bit before we can have answers, right?"
Xiao Xiao nodded.
I vaguely felt that this seemed to be a very difficult task, but Yang Jia was willing to help me, which made me feel a lot more relieved.
"Of course, in addition to the things left by Mr. Ye and the old president, there is another person who can help."
Yang Jia also thought for a while and suddenly smiled and spoke.
Xiao Xiao was surprised: "Who?"
Yang Jia said an unexpected name: "Lin Bo!"
"That poor guy?"
Xiao Xiao was a little surprised: "He hasn't left Black Gate City yet?"
"..."
Yang Jia really wanted to say that before you got the bet from the Hell Organization, you two were almost on the same level.
But seeing that Xiao Xiao had just experienced a heavy emotional blow not long ago, and now he seemed to be forcing a smile, he swallowed back the words and just smiled and said: "After all, I just helped, how can I be so...
The principle of driving people out quickly..."
Xiao Xiao shook his head and said, "Okay, why are you looking for him?"
"He belongs to the questioning school organized by Dante, which is also known as the theological school among foreigners."
Yang Jiadao: "One of the characteristics of the Fengshen School is to understand and explore all the irrational forces in this world from the perspective of the indigenous people. Moreover, maybe Lin Bo's performance in Heimen City... was average, but he also
Don’t underestimate him, he is one of the three great envoys of the theological sect of Dante’s organization, and his understanding of the world far exceeds even mine and Mr. Ye’s.”
"If you want to investigate the Black Forest, he should be able to give you a lot of suggestions."
"..."
"Oh well……"
Xiao Xiao nodded and agreed, but vaguely felt that this guy might not be reliable.
The two of them stood up from the bench, walked through two intersections, and hailed a taxi to leave. It was only then that the police officer squatting at the intersection next to him finally rushed over. While investigating seriously,
Report loudly to the person above:
"No one has escaped..."
"I know that the person who called the police just now said that there was a madman here with a gun in his hand, and he was shooting it into the sky, so he came immediately."
"But they ran too fast. When I came over, there was no one there."
"..."
"..."
When Xiao Xiao and Yang Jia arrived at the hotel where the Dante organization support team was staying, Lin Bo was squatting in front of the small coffee table and eating the pig's trotter rice bowl that his members had packed for him, while listening to this in silence.
Several members criticized themselves.
Suddenly he heard a knock on the door. He raised his head suddenly and stayed there for a few seconds. Then he jumped back to lie down on the sofa with a whoosh.
"Where is the Divine Envoy Lin Bo?"
Xiao Xiao and Yang Jia walked in, glanced at the unfinished lunch box on the small coffee table, and asked helplessly.
The woman, whose disheveled hair was caught in a clip, glanced at the sofa with disdain and said, "There."
"Still unconscious!"
