The Midnight Owl

Chapter 119: old friend

Views:

The team of laughter and laughter slowly walked away, and soon disappeared at the end of the road, blending into the busy traffic under the bright sunshine.

The little friends quietly looked at the direction they left, and remained silent for a long time.

The sun was warm, but it couldn't dispel the chill that shrouded their hearts.

After a long while, Xu Wang let out a light breath, eased his tense nerves, turned his head to talk to Wu Sheng, but saw that he had taken out a pen and paper at some point and was writing there again.

"What kind of problem are you tackling?" Xu Wang asked as he leaned over to look.

Last night, he saw Wu Sheng was busy with his work. He was afraid that it would affect his thinking, so he waited patiently and didn't ask any more questions. Today, he really couldn't hold back his curiosity.

Wu Sheng was writing quickly, without distraction to answer.

Xu Wang watched it for himself.

A4 white paper, Wu Sheng has written more than half of it, and it is shockingly listed one by one—

1) intersection + red light + lateral heavy vehicle = death

2) Intersection + green light + vertical battery car = rubbing → falling → horizontal car → death

3) Auto repair shop + tire inflation at the door = explosion → air pressure shock → death

4) Shop = billboard drop → death

5) Manhole cover = loose manhole cover → flipping → falling down

6) Bus stop = bus out of control → death

7) Bridge = fracture collapse → death

8)…

The more he looked at his hands and feet, the colder he became. At the end, Xu Wang's curious enthusiasm disappeared in the cool breeze on his back.

Although I knew that there may be danger everywhere, after all, in the safe area of a coffee shop, looking at the street scene, the most intuitive first reaction is still visually pleasing, and then the vigilance is slowly raised.

But after reading Wu Sheng's writing, Xu Wang raised his head again, and felt that he could see everywhere, there was black air everywhere, and skeletons were painted everywhere.

Finally, after writing the last article, Wu Junshi put down his pen, sighed solemnly, then raised his head, and introduced his scientific research results to Captain Xu in a succinct manner: "The formula of death."

"..." Although he had already seen his face, but hearing Wu Sheng's seal affirmation made Xu Wang extremely complicated.

Qian Ai came over, picked up the formula table from the table, and felt that the gate of hell was slowly opening to him: "You really listed them one by one... intersections, manhole covers, shops, bus stops... No, this level still has a foothold. Land? You can't fly all the way, can you?"

"Flying at a low altitude may hit a high-voltage line, and flying at a high altitude may hit a drone." Chi Yingxue leaned leisurely in the seat and didn't mean to come over, but she understood the inside and the outside, so she kindly gave the money students added.

Qian Ai looked at him angrily: "It's like saying it has nothing to do with you. Don't blame me for not reminding you, you are the easiest to step on the pit."

Chi Yingxue tilted her head, looked at him quietly for a while, and asked innocently, "Are you cursing me?"

Qian Ai: "… "

Saying yes would seem too lack of friendship in war; saying no would mean bowing to evil forces, there is no choice at all!

"Xiao Kuang, don't sit still, hurry up and recite the formula." Student Qian's choice was to turn around to pull Kuang Jin Xin.

Chi Yingxue watched him and Kuang Jinxin tugging at each other with no change in her expression, but when she saw that Kuang Jinxin was still cooperating happily, Dian Dian went over to read some ghost formula, and her brows unconsciously frowned.

Kuang Jinxin didn't notice it, and focused on the formula.

"This is just a preliminary formula table, based on our last experience and the most obvious potential dangers in our daily life," Wu Sheng explained, "but the setting of this level will definitely not be so simple and rude, some are more complicated and require stacking The death crisis that can only be completed by coincidence, I will continue to sort it out later.”

Xu Wang listened, and in admiration, he sighed more: "Fortunately, you are a good person..."

If this is a bad person, just this brain, it is simply a great evil in the world!

Wu Sheng looked at him uncertainly: "Are you... praise?"

"Absolute praise." Xu Wang was firm.

Wu Sheng was satisfied, and the corner of his mouth raised an arc of relief: "If you say that, then my hard work this night will be worth it."

Xu Wang narrowed his eyes, deeply suspicious of his attitude of studying for love: "You study this, are you sure it's not because you enjoy the process of overcoming difficult problems?"

Wu Sheng was immediately serious: "Of course, there are also some reasons for this..."

Xu Wang: "..."

fart! He dared to be 100% sure that when Wu Sheng studied, his eyes were full of paranoid love for difficult problems!

"Captain," Kuang Jinxin gently pulled Xu Wang's sleeve and advised, "Don't be jealous. Among human beings, you must be the number one in Brother Sheng's heart."

"Thank you, Xiao Kuang," Xu Wang patted his teammate's head, "but after you persuade me, I seem to be even more depressed."

Wu Sheng stood up and walked around the table, moving his muscles and bones, and relaxing his brain.

The death formula can only establish a sense of crisis. If you want to break through the level, you must also have a survival formula; but if you have one or more specific survival formulas for each scene, the amount of data is too large. The formula is perfect...

In this room, Sergeant Wu brainstormed, but the death formula table in the other room somehow got into Chi Yingxue's hands. He browsed it lightly and nodded with satisfaction: "It's good."

Hearing this, Qian Ai curled his lips: "Wu Sheng's tactical notes are not bad yet."

"I mean these ways of dying are pretty good," Chi Yingxue raised her eyes with a natural expression, "clean and crisp, not too much pain."

Qian Ai listened awkwardly: "It's dead anyway."

Chi Yingxue said, "But it doesn't hurt anymore."

Qian Ai just wanted to shout: "I'm dead, I'm dead, I can't eat the big white pear, understand!"

Chi Yingxue: "…"

Kuang Jinxin originally wanted to join the discussion, but now he gave up and sat in the corner, concentrating on eavesdropping and laughing.

Three days later, zero o'clock, 8/23.

They didn't meet other teams for three days in a row, which gave the five people the illusion of breaking through the level on a single machine. So when they were about to actually start to break through the level, when they met old acquaintances at the coordinates in reality, Xu Wang, Wu Sheng, Kuang Jinxin , Qian Ai was stunned there, his face was astonished.

Only Chi Yingxue was very calm.

But the calmer he was, the more excited he became.

After ten people stepped into the purple vortex together and refreshed together in the open-air cafe, Yue Shuai's first sentence was: "You really found him as a new teammate?! When I saw the total score list, I thought it was the same name and surname. of!"

Captain Yue didn't want to use this opening remark at first. When old friends meet again, they should always have a warm chat, but the impact of this familiar face is too strong.

Xu Wang said, "With such a nice name, it's a bit difficult to repeat the name."

Yue Shuai: "..."

Wu Sheng, Kuang Jinxin, Qian Ai: "..."

For the "inadvertent" praise from his own captain, Chi Yingxue's mouth curved into a satisfied arc.

However, before he was happy for two seconds, he received a hostile gaze, Chi Yingxue looked at the source of the gaze, and asked what he wanted to ask just now: "Have we met?"

Wei Tian Hang Teng caught fire: "You almost burst our tires, so you forgot?"

Chi Yingxue blinked ignorantly.

"3/23, playground, your captain shouted 'Chi Yingxue, shoot the car'." Su Mingzhan is clear and detailed, "remember?"

Chi Yingxue suddenly realized, looked at Wei Tianhang again, and knew where the memory gap was: "You made a pigtail that day."

I didn't plan to pass the level today, so Wei Tianhang, who put his hair down, said, "...Do you remember people by your hairstyle!"

"Not all," Chi Yingxue said solemnly, "Only those who are really uncharacteristic in appearance will remember the hairstyle."

Wei Tianhang: "Asu, don't stop me, I'll kick him to death today—"

The players of the two teams here are "unity and fraternity", and the captains of the two teams over there have entered the topic. After all, what kind of teammates you recruit belongs to internal affairs, and Yue Shuai also complains. In contrast, information sharing is the real business.

However, as soon as they shared it, the two captains discovered the problem—the best results of both teams came here, and the next level was completely blank.

Yue Shuai held his forehead: "I thought I could exchange some information from you."

"Don't be in a hurry to be disappointed," Xu Wang said, "It's your first time here, right, but it's our second time. At least this one, we have experience."

When Yue Shuai heard it, he became energetic: "Really? Let's talk about the specific content of this level."

Xu Wang turned serious: "Death is by your side."

Yue Shuai's black line: "I just told a ghost story in the last level."

Xu Wang shook his head: "This time it's not a ghost, it's an accident..."

In three or two minutes, Xu Wang roughly explained the content of this level, and finally said: "We also know this. The group was destroyed before we walked this road last time."

"Enough," Yue Shuai said sincerely, "Thank you."

"Don't be polite between you and me," Xu Wang patted him on the shoulder, "Our two teams, if I really want to say, are childhood sweethearts."

Yue Shuai looked at him with inexhaustible words: "How come you have so many words that I can't understand, and then think about it carefully, it makes a lot of sense."

Xu Wang smiled: "This is called the art of language."

"Okay, don't be poor, aren't you planning to pass the level today, hurry up." Yue Shuai raced against time for them.

Seeing that he was not together, Xu Wang asked, "Aren't you going in today?"

Yue Shuai frowned: "I can't fight with you, and I can't fight with you. It won't be my own family fighting my own family!"

Xu Wang raised his eyebrows and looked up and down the "own family": "Please tell the truth."

"..." After looking at each other for a long time, Yue Shuai pouted, "Okay, dealing with NPCs is already hard enough, I don't want to deal with you any more."

Xu Wang: "Can you guarantee that you won't meet another team tomorrow?"

Yue Shuai: "When other teams come in, they have to wait and see for a day at least. It's already the eighth level, so how can anyone break through in a daze."

Su Mingzhan: "And even PK, PK with other teams is better than PK with you."

Yue Shuai: "That's right, with our relationship, how can I get rid of it?"

Su Mingzhan: "The main reason is to start, and the winning rate is not high."

Yue Shuai: "The captain is talking, and the idle people don't interrupt!"

Su Mingzhan: "I'm angry, but still very handsome."

Yue Shuai: "..."

Tao Anan: "Captain, don't be embarrassed, have you forgotten one thing?"

"Oh yes, I've been waiting to see you guys talking about this." Yue Shuai patted his forehead and quickly opened the hidden item bar on his arm, "We got this badge on 5/23, as soon as we get it, the hidden item bar will come out. Now, looking at the number of grids, I suspect levels 1-13, each level has a badge."

Xu Wang: "..."

Yue Shuai: "Let you see the badge, why are you looking at me?"

"Not only badges, but also manuals." Xu Wang opened his badge manual without reservations.

Childhood is a joke.

But some things are real, and without even realizing each other, they naturally take on warm shapes.

When Yue Shuai saw the manual for the first time, he immediately asked, "Where did this thing come from?"

Xu Wang said: "The 6/23 Old Castle Hotel has a grocery store on the first floor, 200,000 RMB."

"Come on, let's grab it—" Ji Yiming had been watching the liveliness of Wei Tianhang and Chi Yingxue over there, but when he heard the words, he rushed over and took a closer look at Xu Wang's badge booklet, "What is so expensive? What's the matter with one key?"

"Just a badge to hide some hints!" Qian Ai followed, and shared the enemy's anxiety, "How about one key to pass the level? Here's a beauty for you! If you really have one key to pass the level, profiteers are estimated to be able to sell one million!"

"So what's the use of the badge?" Yue Shuai asked.

Xu Wang shook his head: "Collecting 13 badges is the key to unlocking the levels after 13/23."

Yue Shuai was shocked and suddenly realized: "It's no wonder that no one on the total score list has passed the 13th level!" After being shocked, he hurriedly asked Xu Wang, "What's your phone number?"

Xu Wang didn't react for a while: "Huh?"

"Keep in touch," Yue Shuai now fully realizes the importance of interconnection, "you can leave a WeChat account, anyway, you have to be able to talk at any time. Always point to meet here, the year of the monkey is the month of the horse!"

Wu Sheng: "shenggewudi."

Yue Shuai: "His WeChat ID?"

Wu Sheng: "Mine."

Yue Shuai: "I want him."

Wu Sheng: "Either add me or lose contact."

Yue Shuai: "..."

Xu Wang: "Cough, that, plus him plus me is the same."

"..." Yue Shuai swore, he saw the blinding sweetness in Xu Wang's smile.

After a few days, the style of this team is still very fascinating! ! !

Beijing time, 00:12:38

Yue Shuai, Su Mingzhan, Tao Anan, Ji Yiming, and Wei Tianhang stood side by side, saying goodbye to their peers.

Captain Yue waved his hand slowly, his eyes filled with heavy worry: "Be careful, take care."

Xu Wangqiang smiled back at him. I know, this is sending a friend to the battlefield, but if I don't know, I thought it was going to the execution ground.

The five buddies left the fence and entered the walking path.

In less than two seconds, there were noisy footsteps on the street corner ahead—the one-day city tour team that had passed by the cafe once before came back.

At the same time, "ding—"

[The devil who made the accident is among these people, before sunset, find out, if you are still alive.]

From a distance, the team leader waved a small flag and smiled at the five of them. When the large troop arrived in front of the five, the team leader asked enthusiastically, "A day trip around the city, including food and entertainment, come here?"

This time, Xu Wang nodded: "Come on."

As soon as the words fell, the wind picked up, and under the warm sunlight, it was actually a mournful cool.
