Pulling over the table, Jiang Baimian jumped up lightly, and used his left hand to remove the exit fence of the ventilation duct.
As expected, there was a man in black, a deceased man "hiding" behind him.
She slowly dragged the corpse out and put it on the table.
Long Yuehong glanced around and saw a bald head, a chubby face and round dark green eyes.
"Herwig, it's really Herwig!" He compared the photos and blurted out.
"It's been a while since death. The odor has dissipated, but it hasn't rotted yet." Jiang Baimian jumped off the table and made a calm judgment.
She sighed, glanced at Long Yuehong, and laughed at herself:
"I knew this kind of lucrative task would never go smoothly."
From the very beginning, the employer became a corpse!
Of course, Jiang Baimian wanted to sigh with emotion, "Will this luck be a little bad?", but considering Long Yuehong's mood, he forcibly changed his rhetoric.
In order to prevent Shang Jianyao from "talking nonsense", she ordered:
"Go and find the person responsible for the security of the redstone set."
Although they have long heard that the Red Stone Collection is more chaotic than the Wild Grass City, they still believe that there are armed personnel here to maintain order.
If such a market town can be maintained, there must be a certain order and corresponding institutions.
"Where to find it?" Long Yuehong remembered that most of the people here were hiding, and the ghost knew where the people in charge of security were.
What an amazing and frustrating place!
There was no embarrassment in Shang Jianyao's expression, he said with a smile:
"Have you never played hide and seek?"
After speaking, he rushed out of the shop called "Gun Fire", came to the glass handrail, faced the front, and shouted loudly:
"Dead! Dead!
"Herwig of 'Gunfire' is dead!"
Shang Jianyao's voice was like rolling thunder, echoing in the entire underground building.
After Long Yuehong listened in a daze, she said blankly to herself:
"What does this have to do with playing hide and seek?"
"What did you say?" Jiang Baimian touched his cochlea.
Bai Chen replaced Long Yuehong and repeated it.
"I think what he meant." Jiang Baimian said thoughtfully, "When I was playing hide-and-seek as a child, I might have shouted 'Eat, go home', and then those who hid well came out."
Long Yuehong recalled the past, her expression changed slightly, and she felt that she might have been deceived in a similar way.
Not long after Shang Jianyao shouted, behind the glass railing opposite, a tin box used to mark the layout of the store suddenly opened, and a man with a "short neck" submachine gun came out.
"Herwig is dead?" He walked around here and asked about Shang Jianyao.
"Maybe it can be saved." Shang Jianyao replied sincerely.
For example, hurry up, upload your consciousness, and become a mechanical monk.
The man glanced at the corpse in the "gunfire" and took out the walkie-talkie:
"Team Han, something happened to 'Gunfire', and Herwig is dead."
…
At the bottom of the redstone set, in the "Security Station" diagonally opposite the Hunter's Guild.
Jiang Baimian and others met the sheriff of Hongshiji.
"Han Wanghuo." He introduced himself.
This is a tall, thin man.
Of course, his height is relative to the average level of clay soil, and in fact it is comparable to Long Yuehong.
His hair is black, he has a short head, his eyebrows are messy, he looks fierce, there are two horizontal and one vertical scars on his face, the most eye-catching features are the eyes - the whites of the eyes are a little yellow, and the pupils are relatively pure black. rather than dark brown.
After reporting his name, Jiang Baimian asked:
"It's none of our business, right?"
"Although no further autopsy has been done, it can be judged from the current situation that the time of Herwig's death was before you entered the Redstone Collection." Han Wanghuo had no intention of finding a few random people as murderers.
"How did you determine this?" Shang Jianyao asked curiously.
Han Wang, who had two pistols pinned to his waist, pointed to another man beside him:
"Weller, a doctor, also serves as a medical examiner for our police station."
Weller is a standard Red River race, about the same age as Han Wanghuo, in his thirties, with yellow hair and blue eyes, rough skin, sunken eye sockets, and a full beard.
"You still insist on education? Are you still cultivating doctors?" Jiang Baimian asked with interest.
Han Wangshou shook his head:
"Weller is from 'Allied Industries'."
Weller spread his hands, and said in the gray language:
"I just saw that my boss never had any children, so I enthusiastically helped him, and as a result, he was almost thrown into prison and tortured to death."
"The way you help is wrong." Shang Jianyao severely criticized.
"Huh?" Weller was a little stunned.
Shang Jian Yao gave the perfect solution:
"You should use biological organ transplants, nerve reconstructions and artificial wombs to give birth to him yourself so that not only will he not send you to prison, but he will have feelings for you."
"..." Although the words the other party said were relatively unfamiliar, as a medical student, Weller could easily understand what it meant.
"I'm not, I'm..." He suddenly didn't know how to explain.
He was obviously just making fun of himself, but the other party turned out to be so serious.
In the face of such a serious person, he was embarrassed to say that his real purpose was not to help his boss have children, but to be jealous of his young wife.
Long Yuehong gave Weller a sympathetic look and said nothing.
Jiang Baimian held back his smile and nodded to Han Wanghuo:
"Then can we go?"
"Yes." Han Wang received a positive answer.
Jiang Baimian immediately turned his wrist and looked at the electronic watch:
"Is there a hotel or something here?"
It's getting late, and when they go to pick up another mission, they have to consider the issue of accommodation at night.
Han Wanghuo pointed to the ceiling and said:
"On the other side of the entrance, there are several rows of simple houses.
"You need to go to the 'Kasha Hotel' on the fourth floor first and exchange the materials for the electronic card before you can open the door.
"If you try to force entry, you'll see me again soon."
Jiang Baimian nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"thank you."
Weller glanced at her and volunteered:
"I'll take you there.
"Have you guys not had dinner yet? I'll invite you. I'm not bragging. In the Redstone Collection, I'm very good at finding someone first-class, and I won't make you wait too long."
"No need for now." Jiang Baimian refused without hesitation.
At this time, Shang Jianyao asked excitedly:
"How's your level of hiding?"
Weller did not hide his regret and shook his head:
"I won't be as neurotic as them, and I have to hide when I have nothing to do."
"Aren't you a follower of the vigilance sect?" Jiang Baimian asked.
"No." Weller turned his head to look at Han Wangsuo, "Neither is Team Han."
"The sheriff is always hiding, which is not conducive to maintaining order, so Hongshiji specially asked me to do it." Han Wanghuo explained briefly.
Jiang Baimian asked thoughtfully:
"Aren't you from Redstone?"
Han Wang got a "hmm" sound:
"I was originally a wanderer in the wilderness, and I have been a relic hunter for many years."
Hearing this sentence, Jiang Baimian turned his head to look at Bai Chen, as if he was saying with his eyes that he was similar to you.
The only difference is that Bai Chen finally joined the great power of "Pangu Creatures", while Han Wanghuo could only be a member of the smuggling node "Red Stone Collection".
After saying goodbye to Han Wanghuo and Weller, and leaving the police station, Jiang Baimian brought Shang Jianyao and the others, and entered the Hunters Guild diagonally opposite again.
"Herwig is dead, does our mission automatically become invalid?" She asked the female clerk wearing a tiger mask.
After the quest is invalid, they will not have certain restrictions on taking other quests.
The clerk wearing a tiger mask said quickly:
"Do not worry.
"Herwig still has his family. The mission to retrieve the arms is likely to continue, and you may also receive a new mission from the Auxiliary Police Station to investigate the cause of Herwig's death, which can be accepted together."
"So... Then when will there be a definite answer?" Of course Jiang Baimian was reluctant to give up this lucrative task.
In particular, they haven't officially entered the process, and they don't even know the general situation of the robbers.
The clerk in the tiger mask replied:
"Tomorrow afternoon at the latest."
"Okay." Jiang Baimian waved his hand and prepared to leave.
At this time, the clerk wearing a tiger mask said with a slightly trembling voice:
"Several, you better buy some masks, it's very dangerous for you to walk around in your real appearance, I just feel scared when I see it.
"Herwig must have been killed because he didn't hide it properly."
Although Herwig hides better, so that the murderer can't find him, then he probably won't die, but if you say so, there is always a feeling that people who fail to "hide and seek" will die silently... Jiang Baimian slander After saying a word, "follow goodness like a flow" nodded and said:
"thanks."
"So, where can I buy a mask?" Shang Jianyao asked helplessly.
"Aren't you going to the 'Kasha Hotel'? When changing the electronic card, you can change some masks by the way." The clerk wearing a tiger mask said quickly.
"Okay!" Shang Jianyao responded happily.
After leaving the Hunter Guild, Jiang Baimian glanced at him:
"Do you want to do as the locals do?"
"Don't you think it feels good to use a speaker to play songs while wearing a mask to deal with the enemy?" Shang Jianyao tried his best to describe the picture in his imagination.
"It's a bit like a fancy dress party in the old world..." Jiang Baimian recalled and said, "As for how you feel, it depends on what song you play and what kind of mask you wear."
After the "dance party" in the Noble Council Hall of the City Lord's Mansion, she confirmed that there were many strange songs in Shang Jianyao's speakers, and she didn't know whether they were originally there or exchanged from the "Rootless" business group. come.
In short, she didn't dare to recall those scenes at that time, for fear of polluting herself.
While talking, they first went back to the parking lot, took a cardboard box of supplies, and then went up to the fourth floor and found the "Kasha Hotel".
There is no one here either, no doubt.
The entrance is a row of chairs that seem to be used for waiting, the room is not deep, and at the bottom is a wall with a window-like metal door.
On both sides of the metal door, there are notices written in the grey earth language and the red river language:
"Please knock on the door."
Shang Jianyao jumped over, bent his fingers, and knocked on the metal window called the "door".
After a few seconds, the loudspeaker at the top of the room rang, and a deliberately changed female voice came out:
"How many rooms, how many nights do you want?"
"Amazing." Shang Jianyao said with sincere admiration.
He could sense that the innkeeper was behind the wall, but there were at least three thick barriers in between.
In other words, apart from the Awakened, no one could attack the innkeeper in a short period of time.
It's a way of hiding.
Jiang Baimian shook his head:
"Rough.
"Change the surveillance camera with 'Mechanical Paradise', pull a few more wires, and hide outside the redstone set for remote control. Wouldn't it be more concealed and safer?"
The loudspeaker high in the room sounded again:
"Ma'am, you have money to hide. You need the cooperation of robots. You are responsible for collecting materials and issuing electronic cards. If you have no money, you can only be like me."
