0135 Chapter 4: The End of the Ordinary (Section 6)
Half an hour later, Zhen Cheng, who had packed herself up, arrived in front of the "End of Civilization" store that she was very familiar with until last week.
Looking up, I saw that the sign here had indeed been changed, with the message "Fate gathers and ends break".
Not only the signboard, but also the storefront seemed to have been completely renovated overnight. What was originally a sci-fi-style facade on the edge of the universe has now turned into an antique oriental classic teahouse...
That's right, it's the decoration of a tea house, and then it seems like... selling coffee?
The thinking of an almighty is indeed beyond the reach of normal people... Zhen Cheng pressed his temples, shook his long hair and walked into the store.
Compared with the normal store that usually changes its location and the new owner launches various discounts to attract customers, and even the normal store is very popular, this [Yuanju Yuanyuan] cafe can be said to be empty.
Glancing at the price list at the door, Zhen Cheng immediately understood why the place was so deserted. The starting price was fifty gold dollars for a cup of the cheapest cappuccino...
Even Zhen Cheng, the eldest daughter of one of the three most aristocratic families, has an idea that the price is outrageous. In a normal school outside, this amount can already cover the entire tuition for a college student from enrollment to graduation.
The students of St. Matar Academy are indeed rich, but they are not stupid...
Looking around, in the entire store, apart from the clerk behind the counter, there were only the silver-haired back of Qu Yun and the person sitting opposite her...
Zhen Cheng was a little confused when she saw this. She was a professional detective, not a middle school student who was inexperienced in the world. Naturally, she could tell that the old woman opposite Qu Yun was engaged in that special profession.
Cheap cosmetics are used in heavy make-up, and the old man looks like he is fifty years old at least. The years are all written on the face, and it is not well maintained at all...
Well, street girls like this are not uncommon in the dock area. But the question is, how could such a person appear in St. Matar Academy?
Even if some precocious rich young men want to exercise, the ones they will bring back to the dormitory will only be the kind of beautiful fairies, right?
When Zhen Cheng entered the door, he heard the two people talking at the table over there.
"So, as long as you give up your current life, you can regain your life in that [Land of Ten Thousand Me] you mentioned? You can do whatever you want and still be eighteen forever?" the old woman asked, her face
There was obvious disbelief on his face.
"In general, it's about as you understand it." Qu Yun took a sip of coffee slowly, revealing a breathtaking tenderness from an angle that Zhen Cheng couldn't see.
"So, if I want to become a citizen of that [Land of All Me], what do I need to pay for? My soul? My lifespan?" the old woman continued to ask.
Zhen Cheng silently covered his face. You obviously believe this, right? Don't just listen to strange preaching! Academy City is not at peace now. If it has something to do with some unknown belief, it will be blackmailed, right?
Qu Yun smiled and curled up a strand of silver hair with her fingers: "Yizi is not a devil. As long as you want it, he will come to pick you up when the time comes. You can go back now. The other cutie Yizi is waiting for has arrived.
Woolen cloth."
Passing by the old woman, Zhen Cheng's heart gradually rose. The more he learned, the more stressful it became to get along with this mysterious transfer student.
Just now, she was sure that she didn't make a sound when she entered, but this guy seemed to have eyes on the back of his head. He suddenly mentioned that she had arrived, which scared her to the point where she secretly shivered.
"So you are now a part-time human trafficker?" Zhen Cheng complained as she pulled up the bamboo chair opposite Qu Yun and sat down. She no longer doubted Qu Yun's ability to fulfill her promise.
"No, it's just a good deed. Balance is very important. There are just too many people killed here. Sometimes more powerful power may not bring purer freedom of expression," Qu Yun answered, looking a little distracted.
, I can’t understand what she is thinking at all:
"In order to achieve greater goals, there are always some details that have to be compromised. If you do too many bad things, you need to do a little good things occasionally to balance them;
On the contrary, it is a little simpler. If too many good things are done for a period of time, just kill more people to solve the problem."
"So you're doing a favor by drawing an inexplicable pie for this... lady?" Zhen Cheng obviously couldn't understand Qu Yun's witty nonsense: "I thought... you were treating the beautiful lady
Hobbies will be more..."
"A bit more tasteful? Ha, no, no, no. For me, beautiful skins are readily available. On the contrary, it is the perseverance to persevere in the worst life and the courage to still pursue beauty that is beautiful,"
As if enjoying Zhen Cheng's confused expression, Qu Yun glanced at her with a hint of pride: "She reminds me of a close friend from long ago.
A girl's resilience is a great thing. No matter what kind of person she is in your eyes before, as long as there is a slight opportunity, she may be able to burst out with a breathtaking charm.
In fact, the beauty of a woman, whether she is six years old, sixty years old, six hundred years old... so what, what do you think?"
Zhen Cheng scratched her head, unable to continue. She had never seen a 600-year-old goblin with any kind of virtue. As for beauty...
She wanted to be an actress, and she just enjoyed showing off herself to attract the world's attention, but she never thought about relying on her looks to make her debut. To put it bluntly, she was just a layman.
No, no, no, the most important thing is that she didn’t even intend to talk about these useless things when she came here! Life is at stake!
Pulling back from her thoughts of being led away by the guy across from her, Zhen Cheng tried her best to put on a sweet and sweet smile: "So what, so what exactly is all this going on? Can you tell me?"
How did I become a "savior"? Why are "saviors" being hunted? Why does the world need to perish? What exactly do you want from your position and purpose? How can I live well? It's best to be saved along the way.
world……
There were a lot of things she wanted to ask, but they finally converged into that general and simple question. She knew that this guy must understand it, and as for whether she would say it or not, it was not something she could control.
The silver-haired witch opposite seemed to be struggling with something, repeatedly twirling her long hair in her hands: "Hmm... I don't know."
"ha?"
Qu Yun shook a pair of jade feet that were so white that they could break at a touch without touching the ground, and said with a smile: "I thought about it carefully, and most of the things I know clearly are things you don't need to know now, and there is no benefit in knowing them.
.
As for what you need to know, I don’t know. If I knew it, I wouldn’t stay here looking for answers.”
