Hidden Corners

Boom.

Li Chengyi kicked open the door of the KTV, and called out to Syndra who was smoking outside.

"Boss, I brought you here. Can you see if it's her?"

He grabbed Zhong Ying's hair and dragged it all the way to Syndra and Song Ran.

The two were stunned and chatting, when they suddenly saw this scene, they were all stunned.

Not only them, but passers-by around couldn't help but pause to watch the excitement. Some people took out their mobile phones and planned to shoot short videos to watch the show.

"I'll just say it, hahaha!" Sima Gui came out from the KTV gate behind, and laughed out loud when he saw this scene.

"They are all dying, why do you want to do so much, just hurry up and be direct! Don't waste everyone's time!"

He walked up to Zhong Ying and slapped her right on the head.

"Damn it, I went in and searched everywhere, only to find out after asking. It's a regular company, and no one used the contract to blackmail her at all. It's just her own thing."

Zhong Ying wanted to cry but had no tears, half of her face was swollen from the beating and she dared not make a sound.

This is because she is greedy. Unexpectedly, the subordinates of the new boss were so direct and exaggerated that they beat her up when they met.

"Get in the car first." Syndra looked at the two guys, and suddenly felt a headache.

Li Chengyi, who thought he was very well-behaved and honest, seemed to be led by Sima Gui.

Seeing that people around him began to gather to watch the excitement, he quickly opened the door and let a few people go up.

Inside the KTV, there are already staff members calling the police.

As Sima Gui said, they are a regular company with no black background at all. What they said before that they would not be allowed to leave due to breach of contract was all fake news made by Zhong Ying himself.

Boom.

The door slammed shut.

Li Chengyi sat on the seat in a peaceful mood, side by side with Sima Gui, and they looked at each other and smiled.

Zhong Ying was sitting with Syndra in the back row. Seeing the two people in front of her at this time, she couldn't help but feel hairy.

"Electromagnetic interference is turned on, don't worry, the surrounding videos will automatically blur. But it's not good after a long time." Song Ran said.

"Where are you going now?" Li Chengyi asked.

"Miss Zhong Ying, tell me, where was the first time you encountered the blind corner of Fog Street?" Syndra comforted Zhong Ying for a while, which stabilized her mood a lot.

"It's a sake bar called Candy." Seeing the look in Li Chengyi's eyes, she trembled all over.

"Don't mess around! I'm not lying! Absolutely! I promise!" She hurriedly explained.

"If you lie to me, I'll beat you up." Li Chengyi said bluntly.

"Me too." Sima Gui followed.

"Calm down." Syndra said with a headache.

"Let's go, everyone calm down, calm down." Song Ran fought side by side.

Li Chengyi smiled and said nothing more.

From Sima Gui, he understood a truth. They are all entangled in blind spots, maybe they will belch at any time, in this case, it is better to let go and live more comfortably.

As long as you don't expose the flowers of evil and cause too much trouble, for the rest, you can do whatever you want.

The car started and started to navigate towards the candy bar.

The bar is not far away, about three or four kilometers away.

Soon after arriving, Song Ran found a place to park, and several people in the car discussed it.

"Let's divide the work. It's better to separate the flashes of memory so that they can be easily triggered. Sima and Xiaoyi, the two of you are in a single team and investigate the surroundings of the bar separately. The three of us will drive around and look around to see if there are any other blind spots."

Syndra sighed.

"Since there is a blind spot called Fog Street here, it is likely that Zhong Ying is not the only one." He is very concerned about what rewards the slot machine can turn out.

"Good boss." Sima Gui nodded, "But I'm a little curious, what rewards did Zhong Ying get for playing the slot machine, can you show it?"

swish.

Several people in the car were interested in this, and they all looked at Zhong Ying in the last row.

Zhong Ying shrank back, a look of hesitation appeared on her face, which was half swollen like a steamed bun.

"It's just a dagger, and a bottle of pills for unknown purpose."

She didn't dare to talk nonsense, and slowly took out a silver-gray dagger from the pouch.

The entire dagger is different from a short dagger in the traditional sense.

The hilt is drop-shaped, with golden vine patterns, and the blade is long and narrow in the shape of a rhombus, with a sharp tip. It is not so much a dagger as it is an enlarged flat awl.

"I call it a water drop, and I didn't find anything except it was very sharp." Zhong Ying said in a low voice.

"Can I see it?" Syndra asked.

"Of course." Zhong Ying handed him the dagger.

The latter took it and turned it over for a closer look.

"Weighing less than two hundred grams, it is very light, as if it is hollow, and it feels cold in the hand."

He passed the dagger to Song Ran, Sima Gui, and Li Chengyi. They looked at it in turn, but they didn't find anything special.

But the strange thing is that they obviously didn't find any function, but everyone just felt in their hearts that there was something special about this dagger, but they didn't find it.

"This feeling is very strange." Li Chengyi said, "I feel that it is very unusual, but I just don't know what is unusual."

"Me too."

"me too."

Both Song Ran and Syndra nodded.

"Where's the medicine?" Syndra looked at Zhong Ying.

The latter immediately took out a half-finger-long transparent plastic bottle from the small bag, which contained at least ten or twenty oval flattened red pills.

"I've tried this, and I've tried it on my hamster, and I'll be very excited after eating it." Zhong Ying whispered.

"Stimulants?" Sima Gui's eyes lit up.

"Take it back and try it. Can I buy it?" Syndra looked at Zhong Ying.

"This... can be, but let me make it clear that this thing should only last for four days, and it will disappear automatically after four days. This is the message that popped up in my heart after I got it." Zhong Ying said soundtrack. "And besides me, it won't work for anyone else."

"The restriction is so dead?" Syndra frowned. He originally wanted to use it for research, but he didn't expect it to be blocked.

He suddenly understood why the officials didn't bother to pay attention to the blind spots. It is completely meaningless to invest too much in something with too little value and interest.

He returned the dagger and the pills to Zhong Ying, and then made an appointment with Sima Gui and Li Chengyi to meet them.

Li Chengyi and the two got off the car together.

"Zhong Ying said that the moment she encountered Fog Street was the moment she left the bar, that is, the moment she pushed the door. So are we going to the bar first, or..." Sima Gui asked.

"Let me walk around." Li Chengyi experienced the flashback of the last time he was in the parking lot of Grius, and knew that as long as the thing was close, it might appear.

"OK."

Sima Gui chose to go in alone.

He opened the door and entered the bar in two or three steps, leaving Li Chengyi standing at the door.

Li Chengyi looked around, put his hands in his pockets, and walked to the left of the bar.

The entrance of the candy bar is made of big red walls, and a round arch is made of red balloons. Several girls in red jackets and black shorts are holding balloons by the door to attract customers.

The girls looked very unprofessional, although they were dressed sexy, they were all talking to themselves.

Li Chengyi stood at the door and didn't go in, nor did he attract their attention.

Going left along the gate, there is a video game hall next to it. There are various music sounds in it, which makes people feel a little noisy and uncomfortable.

Li Chengyi looked sideways into the video game hall. It was empty and there was no one there. The machines were consuming power in vain, the screens flickered, and animated advertisements and game screens were repeatedly played.

"How did the flash of memory get in?" He frowned slightly, retracted his gaze, and continued to move to the left.

'By the way, Zhong Ying relies on pushing the door to switch, then maybe you can try to push the door in and out later. '

With this thought in mind, Li Chengyi walked forward to another store next to the video game hall.

The shutter door of this store is closed, and there are advertisements and contact information posted on the side wall.

Li Chengyi walked to the entrance of the shop and continued to look forward.

In front of it is a gray wall with no facade, and there is only a bus stop more than a hundred meters away.

From a distance, there was no one on the platform.

'Let's go to the other side, I haven't seen the right side of the candy bar yet. '

Li Chengyi thought so, turned and returned.

Um?

He turned and looked back, but what he saw was not the street he had just walked through.

It's an unfamiliar neighborhood hidden in gray mist.

The old shops are all closed one by one, and the walls are all posted with lease and transfer advertisements.

There are some plastic bags, advertising paper, rags, cans and other garbage scattered on the ground.

There are old-fashioned concrete column street lamps, like rickety old people, standing one at a distance, and there is no light, it seems that it has been broken for a long time.

Gusts of slightly cold wind blew head-on, making Li Chengyi shiver all over.

‘This is Fog Street? ’ With awe in his heart, he knew he had found it.

He clearly remembered that he passed by a video game hall, but now the video game hall was replaced by a closed wonton shop.

Lifting his feet, he stepped forward step by step, walking slowly.

At the same time, his eyes kept scanning the situation on both sides.

One of the special advertisements suddenly caught his attention.

It was a billboard posted on a telephone pole.

‘Resist. Unite and build our big home together! Contact number: 1338’

Many places in the advertisement are blurred, but the impassionedness can still be seen in the handwriting.

Against what?

Li Chengyi didn't know, the key words were blurred and couldn't be distinguished.

He tried to shoot it with glasses, but the AR glasses were completely unresponsive.

In desperation, he continued to move forward, walking towards the depths of the gray mist.

Vaguely, there was a strange sound of electronic music floating in the distance ahead.

‘Woo woo woo~~~ tick tick tick tick ~~’

The weird music sounds like some kind of funny laugh, high-pitched, piercing, cheap electrical noise.

Li Chengyi moved forward and quickened his pace in the direction of the voice.

Soon, I saw that in front of a shop on the street, there was a colorful cartoon slot machine with an infrared watch.

This slot machine is painted with green mountains, jumping rabbits, sheep, and sika deer.

The interface that the player is facing, below are two rows of yellow buttons, each button represents a fruit.

On the top is a rotating fruit box with flashing lights. When the lights turn, whichever fruit stops in front of it, the winner will be that fruit.

The most speechless thing is that there is a big red blessing word printed in the center of the box on the game interface.
