Chapter 132 Halftime
The Overlord's movements suddenly slowed down. He struggled desperately, trying to shake off the snake-shaped water, but to no avail.
Soon, one of the serpentine streams of water climbed up to his face and penetrated from his mouth.
Overlord's body froze, and then, as if he had been electrocuted, he began to twitch violently - this state lasted for about ten seconds, and his tall body collapsed, raising a large dust.
"Dead?"
"No, I'm just frozen." Zhulong looked at Sun Hang, "Are you cold? Do you need me to lend you my scarf?"
Sun Hang glanced at the thick wool scarf. The fabric was already covered with a thin layer of frost, and the chill it exuded was far stronger than the surrounding air... Wrapping this thing around his neck would probably have the opposite effect. .
"Forget it, if a man lends a scarf to another man, he always feels offended." Sun Hang refused directly.
"Haha, that's right." Zhulong smiled heartily - compared to his cold and gloomy abilities, his personality is quite cheerful and sunny.
The two chatted for a short while before the special forces from Tianshu Tower arrived in a hurry. Dozens of soldiers in black clothes and armor rushed into the alley and surrounded the scene with a blockade. Immediately afterwards, a helicopter descended from the sky, and two soldiers wearing heavy power armor stuffed the immobile Overlord into a coffin-like container and carried it onto the helicopter.
A researcher with disheveled hair and a white coat that had obviously not been washed for several weeks ran over in a hurry. After looking around the scene, he locked his eyes on Sun Hang and Zhulong.
"Are you Sun Hang, the registered hunter in Tianfu City?" The researcher came over and asked.
"It's me." Sun Hang nodded.
"Well, due to this unexpected incident, Tianshu Tower decided to suspend the first stage of the promotion trial." The researcher said, "However, the trial will not be cancelled. The specific recovery time is tentatively scheduled for three days. Here Within three days, you can move freely, and your wanted order will be temporarily sealed. However, your personal account will not be unfrozen until the entire trial is over. If you have any needs during this period, you can contact us directly. Or is there no problem if Tianshu Tower is set up in offices in each district? ”
"There is a problem." Sun Hang said seriously.
"Uh, what's the problem?"
"The account is frozen. I have no money to eat and no place to live. It's okay if I am alone, but I have to take a girl with me. I can't let others pick up garbage and sleep on the street with me, right?" Sun Hang said.
"Tianshu Tower will provide you with temporary accommodation and daily necessities. As for the puppet master, we will take her back..."
"No, she is my hostage. Even if the trial is suspended, I will not return her to you." Sun Hang refused, "Is it possible that you can guarantee that after the trial is restarted, you will still return her to you?" In my hand?”
"This... this is of course impossible." The researcher said with some embarrassment, "The Puppet Master belongs to the No. 1 Research Institute. We need to communicate with them about her stay..."
This guy is obviously just a talker, and the decision-making power is not in his hands.
"Stop talking about Chelululu. I know very well that as long as I hand her over, you will have ten thousand reasons not to return her to me." Sun Hang said, "I also know that you have no power to decide anything. , so be it, I don’t need you to provide me with any temporary shelter or living supplies, just give me some cash. Anyway, you can ask the federal government to reimburse you for this money.”
"Huh?"
"Hurry up. Take out all the money you have with you and give it to me!" Sun Hang said viciously, like a bandit blocking the road. "This..." The institute rummaged through the pockets of his white coat, only to find out two ballpoint pens and a small piece of chocolate that had been in the pocket for an unknown amount of time and had melted and deformed. "I... I usually... No cash.”
"Why are you so rigid?" Sun Hang couldn't help scolding, "Have you made your brain stupid by doing research? Haven't you seen that there are shops everywhere on this street? Just find one and scan it Wouldn’t it be great if you gave me a payment code and asked the boss to give you a discount?”
"Um...I...I didn't bring my mobile phone either." The researcher muttered.
"Swipe your face, buddy!" Sun Hang pointed at his face, "What time has it been, haven't you enabled the payment function using your face yet?"
"Forget it, don't embarrass him." Zhulong smiled and walked over to smooth things over, "Researchers at Tianshu Tower have a special status. They must sign a confidentiality agreement before joining the job. The members' information, especially facial recognition data, is confidential. It’s a federal secret, and ordinary private financial institutions are not allowed to register it. Even if you ask him to swipe his face, nothing can be found.”
"What else is there?" Sun Hang couldn't help frowning, "Then who will make up for the living expenses I lack?"
"I'll make it up for you, I'll make it up for you." Zhulong laughed loudly, took out his wallet from his pocket, took out a thick wad of banknotes and handed it to Sun Hang, "I was on vacation, this time I just took out the money to spend it, but I haven’t warmed it in my hands yet. Since you need it, you can use it first.”
"Thank you very much." Sun Hang unceremoniously took the stack of banknotes that smelled of fresh ink and stuffed them into his pocket.
Although he did not count the number of them, judging from the thickness, there should still be seven or eight thousand.
"The incident has come to an end," Zhulong looked at the soldiers who were busy cleaning up the scene. "We have nothing to do now. How about I treat you two to a nearby tavern for a drink? Can you please give me a favor?"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"I don't drink," the puppeteer said quietly.
"That tavern also has non-alcoholic drinks." Zhulong added, "In addition, the Japanese-style roasted bird used to accompany the wine is also very unique. I recommend you to try it."
"I don't have any problem, it's up to you." Sun Hang turned to look at the puppet master.
The puppet master nodded.
"Oh, by the way, one more thing, please wait for me for a while."
After Sun Hang finished speaking, he quickly ran back to the convenience store, took out four bills from the wad of bills, and gave them to the shivering clerk who was hiding behind the cashier.
"The federal government should compensate for the damage to the store. This is the cost of the bottle of Coke." Sun Hang said.
"Ah? Oh...what?" Holding four hundred-yuan bills, the clerk looked at Sun Hang with a blank expression - what happened in these few minutes was really shocking to an ordinary person. So much so that his brain hasn't turned around yet.
"It's nothing. Anyway, when your boss asks, you just have to leave the blame to the federal government."
