Chapter 158 Puppet on Strings

Perhaps it is because after he was promoted to the third stage of the Insight, the side effects of being paranoid became stronger?

When making these arrangements, Xiao Xiao himself did not even have a clear purpose.

He also couldn't figure it out:

If this city is false, then all the behaviors of the indigenous people, even if they have some autonomy, are generally moving in a certain direction. Then this city has given its "father" such a mysterious behavioral logic, and it is

What kind of emotional impact do you want him to bring to you? Or, what kind of purpose do you want him to help you complete?

But let’s find it first and then talk about it!

But before he finished talking about all this and hung up the phone, Yang Jiadu just drove the car silently.

It wasn't until the phone hung up that he said calmly: "Who is it?"

"Our boss."

Xiao Xiao hurriedly explained: "As you know, the boss of the Pink Girl Gang, I am also a member of the Tao now."

"Heard something."

Yang Jia smiled and said, "It sounds like we are still very familiar with each other?"

"Feeling weird?"

Xiao Xiao thought silently and said with a smile: "I'm not that familiar, it's just her..."

"No need to explain it to me."

Yang Jia smiled and said softly: "Where should I send you?"

Xiao Xiao was helpless. After a while, he smiled and said: "Go to the hospital. I haven't seen my mother today."

Yang Jia, who was already familiar with Xiao Xiao and was accustomed to staying close to his family even though he was a stranger, didn't say anything, just smiled and turned the car around. The Ten Commandments for Strangers left behind by the old president

There is also a lesson in letting strangers learn to enjoy reality in this fake city. Yang Jia has always done this, but Xiao Xiao is closer to him.

However, this time she did not follow Xiao Xiao upstairs, but just placed him at the door of the hospital.

"A lot has happened in the past few days."

She said softly: "But no matter what, Black Gate City is no longer in the scattered state it was before. We also learned some things about the old president, so no matter what happens, we just need to remember that we still have

The same kind of people are in this city."

"Just like the old president's plan, building a big ship to take everyone away requires everyone's efforts, doesn't it?"

"Have a good rest and remember to come to me if you need anything."

"..."

She had a smile on her face when she said these words.

Xiao Xiao could feel that she meant something, but she was still very honest in her heart.

Thinking of the things she had been concerned about before, Xiao Xiao just paused slightly and then said with a smile:

"I will."

"..."

After watching Yang Jia's car drive away, he turned and walked into the hospital.

It was past the time to visit the patient, but Xiao Xiao didn't pay too much attention. He just walked slowly towards the hospital. The three eyes of the clairvoyant overlapped slightly. The surrounding scene, the positions of the security guards, doctors, and nurses were all visible.

With everything in mind, he gently opened the door to the inpatient area, walked in before the security guard who was hiding and smoking turned around, and then walked all the way to the ward.

"Why are you coming here so late?"

Mom was still awake at this time and was chatting happily with the little nurse.

However, when Xiao Xiao came in, the little nurse was slightly surprised, then suddenly shook her head and left angrily.

"..."

Xiao Xiao suddenly had a strange expression on his face. He obviously hadn't done anything, so why did he feel guilty?

"I just finished handling some work matters and came to see you."

Xiao Xiao sat down by the bed, picked up an apple, and began to peel it slowly. He was feeling the most confused now, so he subconsciously came to the hospital to see his mother, but he didn't know what to say.

What, it seems like just sitting like this is enough.

Seeing him like this, his mother couldn't help but said, "You've been very busy at work recently?"

"right."

Xiao Xiao nodded and said: "I just got promoted, but the situation is chaotic and I'm a little overwhelmed."

"You actually got promoted?"

When her mother heard this, she was overjoyed. She touched Xiao Xiao's head distressedly and said, "I know that in business, you are no worse than your father. No, I should say you are much better than him.

Don't look at the five or six others, they were just making small fuss back then. If I hadn't inherited the little things your grandfather left back then, how could I have such a prosperous industry later..."

Xiao Xiao slowed down in peeling the apple, and was slightly curious: "Didn't dad's business be very successful back then?"

"success?"

Mom curled her lips disdainfully and said, "What is success?"

"Have you forgotten that when you were in high school, you were messing around with real estate and how much money you lost?"

"If it weren't for later, I somehow got connected with a big company like Black Forest, and I would have turned around earlier..."

"..."

"Black Forest?"

Xiao Xiao's hand peeling the apple paused for a moment, and then he continued, but the corners of his mouth pursed slightly.

It turns out that my father had already interacted with people from the Black Forest when he was in high school!

After slowly peeling the apple, he and his mother chatted about some more things intentionally or unintentionally, and then Xiao Xiao left the hospital.

When he returned to the dark alley where his home was, he was still thinking about what he had experienced that day.

In his heart, there was a feeling of gratitude that Yang Jia didn't act too eagerly because of the contents of the old president's safe or the so-called Noah plan, and kept forcing himself, because he was also trying to digest it along the way.

Despite these repressed emotions, I really felt an indescribable irritability in my heart, and a feeling that every move I made was being designed and manipulated by others.

He didn't like the feeling of being treated like a puppet.

Even, very disgusted.

Because I am used to seeing these aborigines who are manipulated by others from the inside out, this feeling of disgust is even stronger.

Even on an instinctive level, he began to feel anxious.

However, while trying hard to digest these emotions, he advised himself not to be anxious or nervous.

The more this happens, the more you need to calm down and see more clearly.

Anyway...

...While thinking about it, his steps became slower and slower. When his figure was about to disappear completely into the darkness in the alley, he suddenly stood still, then with an expressionless face, he pulled out the silver pistol behind him and pointed it.

He looked up into the night sky and pulled the trigger fiercely.

"Bah, bah, bah..."

He fired one after another and vented his anger.

Even the corners of his mouth were slightly clenched, making his expression look vaguely cruel.

"No matter how honest I am, I can't let you manipulate me like this..."

"After enduring the pain and torture of those four years, I returned to the outside world not just to be bullied by you..."

"..."

"..."

Xiao Xiao also made up his mind. When he returned home, Yang Jia, who was driving in the night, also received a call.

"The new president of Black Gate City has appeared, so the forbidden item should also be found, right?"

There was a man's voice on the phone, which seemed very calm, with an unquestionable majesty: "The time is already later than we expected. I hope you can come back with that thing as soon as possible. Dante needs it to

Conduct new research.”

"I should be on leave now?"

Yang Jia listened, frowned slightly, and then said softly: "In addition, I think something may have happened unexpectedly. We did elect a new lord of Black Gate City, and we did see the legacy of the old president, but

, the safe is empty, maybe the old president did find that thing, but obviously, unlike what we guessed, he did not put it in the safe."

"How can it be?"

The voice on the phone was a little surprised, and then asked in a deep voice: "Did you see it with your own eyes?"

Yang Jia was silent for a long time and said: "No."

"I didn't become the president, so naturally I wouldn't be the first person to see the legacy of the old president."

"..."

"You would believe such a clumsy lie?"

The voice on the phone immediately became aggravated and said coldly: "Tell those people not to be too greedy. They cannot keep such things. Just like in Black Gate City before, if they find such things, they will

It will cause trouble..."

Yang Jia frowned: "I said, I didn't come back for this thing."

"What you think is your business."

The voice on the phone was unceremonious: "But you should understand the dangers of leaving this thing outside."

"We also know how important it is to us!"

"..."

"..."

Similarly, outside the city, there are twisted flesh and blood intertwined everywhere, and in the dark red mist that is too thick to be dissolved, the huge skeleton ship, like a silent ghost, slowly passes between the wriggling tentacles, everywhere

It was deathly silent. Only when the skeleton ship passed by did loud music suddenly come from above, and excited laughter burst out from time to time.

"The Silver Bullet family was wiped out?"

"So what's the situation in Black Gate City now? Is there a new president?"

"..."

On the deck, a group of people were huddled together playing poker, and their faces were all covered with notes. Facing the crowd's inquiries, a guy in white clothes slammed the four cards in his hand onto the small table.

On the table, he said: "Then who can know?"

"The eyeliner has been pulled out, why are you going to ask ghosts?"

"..."

"Fuck..."

Someone nearby shouted: "We are a world-famous hell organization. Shouldn't we do things one by one? They pulled out one group, but in fact there is still another group? You won't really just keep them?"

Are the Silver Bullet Family members working as spies?"

"As soon as the silver bullet dies, your eyes will become black?"

"..."

"Fuck..."

The man in white clothes threw another one to four, and said with a smile: "Our hell organization does not work in the old Yin coin style..."

"If you want to know what it's like there, why don't you just go and have a look?"

"Haha, another four, gone..."
