Chapter 495: In the Gambling Game (4)
“Heitaro, I’m going to ask you for the next step~” As the crowd moved, Qian Xiaoyi whispered in Inuyama Heita’s ear and patted him. shoulders.
Heita Inuyama turned around and found that Qian Xiaoyi had disappeared. He didn't know where he went. He could only sigh.
While everyone was paying attention to the gambling game, Zhang Chunfa, who was the main body of the game hall, was particularly leisurely at this time. He was wandering aimlessly in the dilapidated and deserted corridors. Don't think about anything, just enjoy the nostalgic atmosphere without any worries.
At this moment, a wisp of smoke floated in front of him.
Looking at this wisp of misty but never-ending smoke, Zhang Chunfa sighed. He knew that some things could not be avoided, so he followed this wisp of smoke honestly and walked towards the source.
After walking through the maze-like corridor, he came to the central patio. Qian Xiaoyi was sitting on the roof of the shack, as if Zhang Chunfa was dreaming for the first time, with a cigarette in his mouth. Waiting for him.
"Has it started over there?" Zhang Chunfa asked: "You seem to have arrived earlier than promised."
"Well, I originally wanted to stay and have a look. But I was completely unfamiliar with the game they were playing and couldn’t understand it, so I came over early.” Qian Xiaoyi said, “Everyone’s attention is over there now. It’s a good time for us to take action. You are ready. Are you ready? "
"Don't we stop taking action if I say I'm not ready?" Zhang Chunfa smiled bitterly and said, "Let's go, whether it's life or death, there must be someone. As a result...but I really hate the feeling of turning into a monster. It feels awkward to walk.”
Qian Xiaoyi said: "That's because you haven't completely merged with the monster. This is a good thing. If you completely think of yourself as that thing, then you should pay attention."
He jumped down. , took Zhang Chunfa and led the way towards their destination.
"A good thing?" Zhang Chunfa followed and said: "But this is not good for what we are going to do now~ It makes me so nervous. Remind me again what we are going to do "Coming?"
Qian Xiaoyi was walking in the corridor with a compass in his hand, saying: "What we have to do now is to take back your control of this monster lair, because you are It’s the main body of this game hall, not them.”
“I get angry when I talk about this!” Zhang Chunfa complained: “They took away all the benefits, but I have to take the blame, and now we are. You want to get all the benefits back, right?”
"It's authority." Qian Xiaoyi emphasized: "This lair has been carefully designed, and all the power that originally led to you has been cut off. What we have to do is destroy that thing and let you regain control of this place. , ruining their plan and preventing them from playing the golden cicada."
Zhang Chunfa said: "Then those two who rush to the street will not be able to let me die. I understand this, but what about after that? Is that [Hundred Ghosts] really not going to do anything to me?"
"Probably." Qian Xiaoyi thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid your lair is just a tool in the eyes of others. A tool used to absorb money and souls. I guess they don't care who owns this tool, as long as they can continue to hand over the benefits. After all, they can even abandon the superior cadres in the organization, let alone that "The higher-level cadre...is that the one who came to the mountain successfully?" Zhang Chunfa also knew that there was a big fuss a while ago and couldn't help but ask: "We really want to fight with him?" Is it right for such a large organization?”
Qian Xiaoyi asked with a smile: “Are you afraid?”
"It's just that I can't believe it. After all, I've only been hanging out on the streets since I was a child, and I rarely interacted with those big shots." Zhang Chunfa smiled, and then showed a ferocious expression: "...But if they take me If you treat me like a pig or a dog and don't care about my life or death, then so do I. Can bite them."
"Okay, very energetic, that's it." Qian Xiaoyi suddenly stopped at a dead end, which was full of garbage and sewage, and smelled of dead rats and mice. Qian Xiaoyi seemed not to notice the smell of excrement at all.
He stepped over those dirty things, and the splashed sewage left no trace on his body. He walked to the wall of the dead end, and then said: "This should be it, from behind your nightmare." The nearest entrance to the world in the game hall is up to you. If I force a breakthrough, I will probably alert the people outside. "
" Okay" Zhang Chunfa left without saying a word. He stepped forward and put his hands on the wall.
He closed his eyes, seeming to feel something. When he opened his eyes again, he had turned into that large ghost. Then, he opened his mouth and chewed out a big hole in the wall, revealing the bright light inside.
"Bah!" Zhang Chunfa spit out the thing in his mouth and said, "I don't know how to open it, so I can only do this. I won't alarm the outside, right?"
"It doesn't matter. "Well done," Qian Xiaoyi said: "It's the right thing to do. Your power comes from the same source as the game arcade. They shouldn't be able to notice it. Let's go in."
He walked into the hole in the wall first, and Zhang Chunfa also kept squeezing in. , and finally squeezed in using both hands and feet.
“What the hell is here!” Zhang Chunfa was stunned by the sight in his eyes.
The location they were in looked like a casino, but the lights divided the place into small scenes, and each scene told a story of despair.
In one scene, mahjong is scattered all over the floor. Several strong men are holding mahjong and stuffing it into the protagonist's mouth, and chanting: "Like to cheat? Like to hide cards?"
< br>The man's hands and feet kept struggling, but his strength became weaker and weaker. They didn't stop until the man was choked to death.
Then the next second, the man sat down at the card table again, his head covered with sweat, nervously touching the cards, as if he had completely forgotten what happened before, and was secretly playing a card Stuff it into your sleeve...
In another scene, a tattooed gangster looked nervously at the pachinko machine in front of him. There were not many small steel balls left in the plastic frame in his hand. , until he lost the last bead and kept banging his head on the machine, he didn't realize that two people had been standing behind him for a long time.
Next, he was dragged away, screaming: "I was wrong! I shouldn't have stolen money from the group to gamble! Please forgive me! It's all a trap! They were lying to me, saying they could win, I just...please let me go!"
He was dragged into a car, and with a muffled sound, the scene went dark... Appearing in front of the pachinko machine, repeating his previous behavior.
Different but similar stories are also playing out in other places.
"Please, no! I still have children at home waiting for me to go back!"
"You cheated! I was going to win, let me go! I want to call the police! Police, Police!”
"It's over...everything is over..."
"I will pay back the money! Please lend me some more! I will definitely win it back! Please, lend me money!"
Zhang Chunfa saw countless similar scenes, and the screams and pleas kept washing in his ears. He even saw a few familiar faces among them, which made him tremble.
"What place is this..." Zhang Chunfa asked with some fear.
"Didn't I say it? The other world in the game arcade." Qian Xiaoyi said calmly: "These dead souls suffered tragic experiences during their lives, and they will be tortured here day after day, drained out. Their last bit of value uses the fear, greed, desire, resentment and other cognitions they generate to provide power and strength for this nest.”
"I...what have I done...I thought I was just asking for debts. It is natural to pay back debts...but this..." Zhang Chunfa knelt on the ground. He was from Xiangjiang, and he had some beliefs like The brand was engraved on his body, so he was a little scared after seeing this.
