Hidden Corners

hiss.

The paper cutter scratched lightly on the carton, opening a gap.

Li Chengyi lifted the lid with anticipation, and inside was a red porcelain flower pot fixed with white foam.

There is a lot of soil in the pot, and some white wisteria flowers and their branches are scattered in the soil.

In the center of the pot, on a brown branch half the width of a palm, there are fine white flowers. A bunch of them, completely different from purple.

White-flowered wisteria is white with purple, and general wisteria flowers are purple with white.

"Here we come." Li Chengyi took a deep breath, and could faintly smell the fragrance of flowers.

He suppressed the anticipation in his heart, stretched out his hand, and lightly touched the somewhat languid white flower.

‘White-flowered wisteria: a deciduous vine, another species of wisteria, with a strong fragrance, and the flowering period is from May to June. '

'Flower language: the hand of intoxication. '

'Flower scale clothes: Is it starting to absorb evolution? '

The moment Li Chengyi saw the last line of information, his heart was relieved.

'correct! This is it! '

There are many varieties of wisteria, but he chose white-flowered wisteria because he found this kind of wisteria, which is rarely planted in large quantities by merchants.

This will also make it easier for him to absorb evolution and repair the flower scale clothes in the future.

Immediately, he confirmed the Evil Flower's inquiry in his mind.

'yes. '

Suddenly, a thread-like cool breath flowed in from the fingers that touched the petals of the white wisteria.

This breath did not flow into the flower ring of evil as before, but flowed along the palm, arm, and into the chest.

Then spread from the chest to the whole body.

A cool feeling like soaking in mint water slowly emerged in Li Chengyi's body, making him tremble slightly.

Fortunately, there is no one at home.

Parents go to work, and sister Li Chengjiu has to go to training every day to prepare for the upcoming assessment.

Li Chengyi looked down at the back of his right hand, where the flower ring of evil was emitting lavender light.

A new line of information flowed into his mind.

'The scale coat is evolving.'

'The evolution process is affected by personal character, three views, physique, goals, etc. Different nutrients can be added in the middle to enhance the strength of the scale coat. '

'Different nutrients can lead to changes in the strength and shape of the final scale coat, and even the flower language ability, please try carefully. '

"Nourishment?" Li Chengyi squinted his eyes slightly. Will this flower scale garment change with the wearer?

But he thought about it again, ancient armors must be tailor-made, and it is understandable that Hualinyi has this function.

Only in this way, he had even more expectations in his heart.

‘What does this nutrient refer to? '

As doubts emerged in his heart.

The new flower of evil feedback quickly flowed into his mind.

'Nutrition: There are two types. Before the evolution of the flower scale clothing is completed, it needs to absorb the flower energy to form.

After forming, apart from repairing, it no longer needs flower energy, but needs to absorb all evil thoughts from the outside world.

Absorption of Evil Thoughts: When the individual with evil thoughts is completely defeated and transformed into other emotions, the absorption can be completed.

Current evolution rate: 1%, evil thoughts: 0.’

evil thoughts! ?

It was only at this time that Li Chengyi really understood.

‘No wonder the name of this ability is the flower of evil. The flowers and fruits bred with evil thoughts really fit the name. '

"In this way, the wearer is different, the evil thoughts absorbed in the process are different, and the flower scale clothes that may be condensed and evolved in the end are also different"

Thinking of this, he carefully lifted the flowerpot out of the foam plastic holder, went to the bathroom, wet the water with a rag, wiped the exterior carefully, and put it in his bedroom.

"The room is still too small, if I can have my own flower garden."

Looking at the originally empty space, after adding a pot of wisteria with white flowers, it looks a little crowded.

The idea of ​​renting a house outside became more and more intense.

Sitting at the table, Li Chengyi took out his mobile phone and searched for the delivery location of the white wisteria without hiding anything.

He planned to go there directly, complete the evolution of Hualinyi in one go, and then come back.

As long as the evolution is complete, it only needs to be repaired after a while, and it will be done.

"It seems that the development of Evil Flower will require a large number of flowers in the future. Maybe I should consider opening my own flower base."

This idea gradually rose in his mind.

Because the mobile phone is not safe, he just disguised himself as an ordinary person who loves flowers very much, and the information and keywords he queried on the mobile phone were not at all confidential.

Not long after, he found this merchant who shipped wisteria with white flowers.

Make a call.

"Hello, is this Baojuyuan flower shop?"

"Yes, may I ask you?"

After a short and quick exchange, Li Chengyi made an appointment to visit the other party's flower base by himself. The excuse is naturally that I want to wholesale a batch of wisteria with white flowers.

After confirming the time, he looked at the flowerpot in the bedroom again, feeling much more at ease.

'The next step is to find a way to test the specific strength of the flower scale clothes.'

These days, he didn't do anything or think about anything. After repeated attempts alone at night, he successfully controlled the automatic wearing speed of the flower scale clothes.

Li Chengyi found that as long as he was sure to wear the scale clothes, he would continue to issue instructions to slow down and slow down.

It is possible to control the flower scale clothes to only wear part of the body.

For example, wear only the hands, only the legs, only the torso.

In this way, it will be much more convenient for him to test the strength of the flower scale clothes. After the basic physical training is over, start the firearms training course, and then find a suitable opportunity.

Suiyang City, XC District.

Along the old old street, there are five-storey residential buildings lined up.

The first floors of these residential buildings are all small shops.

Outside the yellowed walls of the shop, there are humming external air conditioners hanging on the side.

In front of one of the shops, the blue shutter door was closed tightly, and a fat man in a silver jacket and smoking a cigarette was squatting in the right corner.

While smoking a cigarette, he looked sideways from time to time, as if he was waiting for someone.

"Xiao Ding." A bald man slowly approached on the sidewalk not far away, with a bag in his hand, and greeted the squatting fat man.

"Hey, Brother Zeng, are you here?" The chubby man quickly stood up with a smile on his face.

"If you have anything to say, brothers are waiting." He approached with a smile, took out a cigarette case from his pocket with one hand, opened it and handed it over.

"Thanks, the boss said that they need to find two people. Isn't your sister very skilled? Asking her to help you find out will benefit you afterwards." The bald head said in a low voice.

"Who? We dare not do it if you are too sensitive." Xiao Ding, a fat man, hesitated.

"It's not a sensitive person, just help me to check it, as usual, 50,000 a piece." The bald head whispered, "Your sister's monthly income is your sister's monthly income if you check it once. If you don't break the law, just take a screenshot and paint all the marks on it You can drop it, how simple is that? As long as no one tells you, who would know that your sister did it?"

Xiao Ding hesitated and nodded.

"Okay, let me ask."

"This is the profile portrait of those two people. If you find it, you don't need to take a screenshot. You can type it by hand or transcribe it." The bald man understood the other party's concerns and smiled immediately.

"I understand." Xiao Ding took the two composite photos in the opponent's hand and looked down.

Of those photos, one of them looked very similar to Li Chengyi, and the other was the man with the gun in the corner.

Xiao Ding took out his mobile phone, took two photos, and then walked aside to make a call.

Not long after, he had a smile on his face again, hung up the phone and turned around.

"Success, I will send you the materials later. There is nothing wrong with these two people."

"That's good." Brother Zeng also smiled. "If it's possible, it's best to have all the family information. Generally, there are online registrations, right?"

After all, it is a modern society, and killing people directly is definitely the last resort. It would be best if the family members and relatives first coerce and threaten the other party, and let them protect the young lady in a blind spot, so that the goal can be easily achieved.

"No problem, the registration information has a name, and it's easy to follow along. My sister said that I can help locate the phone directly. When do you want it?" Xiao Ding said.

"The sooner the better." Brother Zeng quickly replied.

"Okay, my sister said, it will be done within an hour. It's just money." Xiao Ding replied with a smile.

"In the old place, half of the deposit will be paid first, and you can pick it up yourself later." Brother Zeng nodded.

"The boss is refreshing!" Xiao Ding smiled openly.

New Century Building Hongjin Company.

Syndra stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with her arms folded, looking out at the sunny city of Suiyang, without saying a word.

His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something, and the thumb of his right hand unconsciously rubbed the outer edge of his arm.

Boom boom boom.

There was a knock on the door.

"Sir, we found it." A male voice with a slight nasal voice sounded from outside the door.

"Aran? Come in." Syndra turned around and looked towards the door.

The door was slightly twisted, pushed open, and a muscular, round-haired man walked in.

The man's complexion was sallow, like a sick person, and his eyes were a little cloudy. The height of more than two meters was like a door panel, and he walked in the door straight.

When he was three meters away from Syndra, he stopped and lowered his head slightly.

"According to the profile of Mr. Li Chengyi's portrait, the remaining survivor has been found. This is the information, please have a look."

The man handed over a document in his hand.

Syndra took it and flipped through it.

"Is there only one omen?" He frowned slightly, obviously a little dissatisfied.

"Yes, this Meng Dongdong herself should be a sign of a dead end because her spirit is not strong enough. She only appeared once, and went straight in the second time. According to Li Chengyi's description, she should have been lucky and survived for the time being." Aran's strong man introduced.

"The potential is too low. Li Chengyi has three omens. Among all the contractors we have contacted, he has the most omens. The more omens, the easier it is to survive. This Meng Dongdong is worthless." Syndra closed the information and shook her head slightly. .

"Besides, his family background is superior, and he is unlikely to cooperate with us." Aran added.

"Well, let her go. The focus is on Li Chengyi." Syndra confirmed.

Just as the two were talking, there was another rush of footsteps outside the door.

The visitor stopped at the door.

"Boss, Mr. Cheng Yi's mobile phone is being located by hackers. Someone is trying to access the relevant information of Mr. Cheng Yi and his family in the communication operator's database."

"Cut him off and give him a warning." Syndra said calmly.

"Also, Meng Dongdong's side. Since there is no possibility of becoming my contractor, it is of no value to us, and she will be cut off from the preliminary selection."

"Then do you want to?" Aran raised his hand and scratched his neck.

In order to ensure the safety of the contractors, prolong their survival time, and try their best to explore the secrets of the dead corner, they have done this before.
