In Room 204, He Xiao repeatedly paced back and forth near a wall.
This wall, between the bedroom and the living room, is usually nothing special, but whenever a newcomer is about to arrive, it will vibrate slightly.
Then a line of blood appeared to remind He Xiao.
He Xiao has been staring at it for more than 20 minutes, but he has never seen anything abnormal.
He even conjured a sledgehammer and smashed the center of the entire wall, but there was nothing inside and it was restored to its original shape in an instant.
This is the internal repair function of the newspaper. Not only does it affect the employees, but everything in it cannot be destroyed.
Xu Lang's previous statement in the conference room did make He Xiao feel that something was wrong.
Regarding the captain's privilege issue, I also took it to heart, but after a long time I didn't find anything.
He Xiao couldn't understand it. It stands to reason that Xu Lang's words were rigorous, and the newspaper did treat the position of captain a little special.
What's more, what Xu Lang and others didn't know was that his ability to be the captain was also the instruction of the mysterious man.
Others don't know the entanglement during this period, but He Xiao can be sure that the role of captain must have profound meaning.
Because, it was the mysterious man who asked him to be the captain at the beginning.
But during this period of time, he didn't seem to have done anything except to appease the internal unity of newspaper employees.
The mysterious man asked him to do the same.
But He Xiao never understood why the mysterious man would do such a thing that seemed to be of little benefit.
Now Xu Lang's remarks made He Xiao understand, and he paid more attention to this issue.
He Xiao picked up the phone, thought about it for a moment, and dialed a number.
The other end of the phone was picked up quickly this time, and He Xiao quickly said with a smile: "Sir, it's me."
"I know it's you, so I'll just talk."
"Hehe, I want to report to you about the recent situation of the newspaper. The previous human skin lantern task was upgraded to an unsolvable task in the later stage!"
This sentence surprised the mysterious person on the other end of the phone, "Oh? There is no solution so soon?"
He Xiao hurriedly nodded: "Yes, you guys from the previous sirs, according to you, the unsolvable mission that only appeared in the last mission, and you only survived that time.
But this time it came so early. "
"So, are Yan Yan and Xu Lang dead?"
He Xiao shook his head slightly: "Everyone else died, but Yan Yan, Xu Lang and Wu Cheng survived in the end."
The mysterious person was silent for a moment, and his tone was a bit bitter: "Then you have done nothing during this period of time?"
He Xiao heard this, sweating like rain: "Sir, I did not receive a job recently, but Xu Lang is on the verge of death this time, but another employee appeared and rescued him. I believe he will not last long. .. ... ”
The mysterious man stopped talking, and He Xiao continued: "Sir, I want to ask, are we going through a newspaper cleaning operation now?"
"Almost, it's just the beginning."
He Xiao heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this: "It must be a short while, the difficulty of the task will not be extremely high, right."
"Don't worry, in my experience, you will continue for a few more months before you encounter the final cleansing. If you can survive, you will reach the same level as me."
He Xiao's heart was finally let go. He knew that this mysterious man was a great figure who had gone through the previous batch of cleansing, and his information was extremely precious.
But his eyes rolled slightly, and then he asked:
"Sir, I'm thinking about this captain, or let others do it."
Before he could finish his words, the mysterious man's tone was stunned: "What did you say?"
He Xiao said eagerly: "Sir, listen to me. Now that Yan Yan and Xu Lang have formed an alliance, I won’t be able to do anything with me, and it’s not easy to start. It’s better to let Wu Cheng or others do it. It can contain their influence even more."
"No, this captain can only be done by you, don't think about that, just continue to do your own job."
He Xiao nodded and said yes.
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and then said: "How many missions have you been through now?"
He Xiao was a little stunned. Since he had been in contact with the mysterious person for so long, he had never taken the initiative to ask about the progress of his mission.
This surprised him a bit.
"I have gone through six missions. I'm afraid it should come to me next time."
The mysterious man didn't speak any more, but hung up the phone.
And immediately, the corner of He Xiao's mouth showed such a smile as expected.
The position of the captain would make the mysterious man take so seriously. It seems that there must be some problems that he still doesn't know.
It's just not clear, why the mysterious person attaches great importance to the position of captain.
He Xiao wandered around the wall a few more times.
I thought I would not rush for a while now, and then slowly explore later.
He Xiao raised his hand to look at his watch, then changed into very decent clothes in the closet, and stood in front of the mirror and looked at it repeatedly.
With a satisfied smile, he made a call.
"Hey, Sister Zhang, how is my mother doing recently. Oh, oh, it's fine, I'll go home and have a look later. You can prepare the food first."
He Xiao casually conjured a lot of precious skin care products from the table and walked out of the room.
He Xiao doesn't look at the usual hypocrisy and cunning, but as his name suggests, he is extremely filial.
He is even more filial to his lonely old mother. He used to have limited life and was unable to afford it. Now he will give his mother the best food and clothing.
Even he succumbed to the mercy of the mysterious man, on the one hand, he wanted to live, on the other hand, it was because his mother was in his hands.
Because the mysterious man is different from him, after ten missions, he can no longer abide by the rule that he can only publish newspapers for 48 hours a month.
He can live in the real world all day, and He Xiao can be guarded for a while, but he can't be guarded for a lifetime.
Sighing, He Xiao left the newspaper office.
At this time, Xu Lang was in the room, eating lunch with a light green lunch box.
Zhang Qingyu's room has been taken back by the newspaper after her death.
Now only this lunch box is left, which she left at Xu Lang's house before the Yin Yang Road mission.
Xu Lang was eating, while thinking about the situation in the last few days.
Three days have passed since the last mission ended.
Although it was three days for Xu Lang, the other executors hadn't received the task for a long time.
It stands to reason that it is time to come. You must know that Xu Lang has been in the newspaper since he entered the newspaper. He has never been repaired for such a long time. Basically, he rushed once.
Moreover, there are only nine employees left in the newspaper, and when the new recruits can be replenished is also a question.
After Xu Lang ate the food in the lunch box, he went to the kitchen while cleaning, thinking that the next task and the newcomer might arrive at the same time.
After the meal, Xu Lang began to do exercises.
This habit has been cultivated for a long time. If there is basically nothing to do every day, he will spare two to three hours to exercise.
After entering the newspaper for a few months, he has long been not as thin as he was before. Although his body shape has not changed much now, his explosive power and endurance are far beyond before.
While sweating like rain, the afternoon time passed.
Just as Xu Lang had just finished taking a shower and washed away his sweat, the door rang.
It was He Xiao who came here.
I saw him with a wry smile and said: "The newcomer is here, so that we don't worry about it, let's go down together?"
Xu Lang nodded. The newcomer's supplement is vital to the future tasks. After all, it is time for a few veterans to be exhausted sooner or later.
There may also be some capable talents among the newcomers.
Xu Lang touched the drops of water on his head: "Wait for me to change my clothes."
Not long after, Xu Lang and He Xiao walked down to the newspaper lobby.
The surviving employees are all done on the sofa. Xu Lang saw Wu Cheng sitting on the edge of the corner, smoking a stuffy cigarette.
Seeing Xu Lang's arrival, he glanced up slightly and then retracted his gaze.
Yan Yan had already sat in the first row, waiting early.
On the first row, He Xiao, Yan Yan, and Xu Lang did a good job safely and began to wait for the newcomers to join.
After about three or four minutes, a sharp white light flashed.
The looming figure greeted the eyes, it seemed as if there were a large number of people, and there were faintly noisy voices.
After a while, the white light dissipated.
The number of Haohao **** appeared in the newspaper lobby in an instant.
He Xiao was overjoyed in his eyes.
This seems to be as many as twenty people! This is rare good news, after all, one more person now has more strength.
But when the newcomers came here, there was a panic at first, and then the two people separated from the middle into two factions.
One person on each side is headed, pointing at each other: "Is this your ghost?"
Such an appearance has never appeared before.
He Xiao hurried forward, ready to talk about the introduction of conventions, "Everyone, don't worry, congratulations on your successful life..."
But the words were not finished yet, among the group of people on the left, a young man with a stick in his hand appeared, arrogantly approaching He Xiao, "Congratulations!"
When he went up, he gave He Xiao a stick and hit it directly on the arm. He Xiao fell to the ground with a cry, his arm was broken directly, but the newspaper was also repairing it quickly.
But the pain will not be relieved for a while.
Yan Yan and Xu Lang frowned slightly when they saw this.
There are about eight or nine people in the group on the left, each with knives, guns and clubs in hand, dressed up as a group of young and Dangerous.
The young man who beat others arrogantly pointed at Yan Yan and the others with a stick and said, "Which one of you is in charge? Explain to our boss, what is going on? What about the filming? What about our brothers before?"
Yan Yan sneered, then retracted his gaze at a glance, and shook his head slightly at Xu Lang.
On the contrary, Xu Lang looked at the group of people on the right. The leader who looked like a man in his 30s had flickering eyes and did not act rashly. Instead, he observed the group and the group of young and Dangerous. Confrontation.
Xu Lang smiled slightly, a bit interesting, and he was about to say something to Yan Yan.
what! ! !
A scream came abruptly, attracting everyone's attention, and interrupting Xu Lang's words.
The young man with the stick no longer had the arrogance he had just now. At this time, he was curled up on the ground, and white smoke began to be emitted from his body, as if a fire was burning from his body.
Even the whole face turned red. The blood had been tumbling due to the high temperature, and it began to burst and spray from each blood vessel, and the hot and hot blood spattered onto the body of the companion who wanted to check the situation.
Each also screamed.
The group of middle-aged men headed by young and Dangerous boys stopped their men and backed away frantically.
And the young man finally couldn't stand the high temperature. In less than three seconds, Huawei was in a cloud of ashes.
Suddenly, the inside of the newspaper was silent and terrifying.
Yan Yan dangling his cigarette, slowly got up from the sofa, kicked the young man's ashes away, and clapped his hands.
Loudly said: "Welcome to the deception agency!"
PS: Enter the task tomorrow, let Xu Lang take a break, these two chapters are relatively easy, Cheng Guoguo is too funny, hahahaha. (End of this chapter)
