The inferior whispered: "In fact, before you appeared, the elves were deliberately supporting [heroes]. Almost every high-ranking elf has a corresponding hero... In other words, every hero has a hero for them.
An elf director who endorses his actions. For example, you can be regarded as a hero supported by Amyrus."
In other words, the elves are trying to expand their power?
and……
"Amyrus?"
Russell was a little surprised: "But I didn't even know him before that."
"I only found out later. Who would have known that as an elf director, he would elect an unknown person as a hero."
The inferior sighed and came to Russell's side: "So at first I thought you were also one of the elves' pawns. But after contacting you, I realized that you are different from the other heroes."
"...how different are they?"
Russell couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart and leaned over: "Speaking of which, I haven't investigated the heroes of Happy Island... After all, since you said so, the news on the Internet must not be reliable.
"So, why don't you tell me, who are they? Thugs? Celebrities? Narcissists? Liars? Or despicable people?"
"No. Just thinking of the word 'hero' makes me want to vomit."
The inferior refused without hesitation.
He suddenly turned around and came closer, staring at Russell with his cold light blue eyes: "Compared with that, let the minister apply, and I will take you to see the devil in a few days - this is business."
"The bad guy is right, this is indeed business."
Delphinium nodded.
She glanced at the bad guy again, and there seemed to be a hidden warning and rebuke in her eyes.
This is obviously because the inferior person lost control of his emotions at that moment.
Then, the gentle and steady voice sounded from her little body: "It cannot be said that all demons are evil. But there are very few who have no desire to attack or prey on humans, but you did see it, and only
I have seen such a case.
"If you can't understand the devil's distortions, you might be tempted to believe other devils' tricks to beg for mercy."
As much as Russell wanted to argue, he was born with the gift of seeing through other people's lies - not in this life, but in the previous one.
But it seems too arrogant to say this. And others will not believe it easily.
So Russell nodded and agreed.
Delphinium looked over with a smile: "But, Russell, before that... you have to go to the Beehive Nightclub again today."
"Eh? Why?"
Russell was suddenly shocked: "Has someone been kidnapped again? Or is there another suspected demon?"
"No. It's the owner of the Honeycomb Nightclub who wants to thank you. I want to thank you by name."
"...to socialize."
Russell grimaced.
He asked a little warily: "Can I ask, is that boss... male or female? How old is he?"
"Ah, don't worry. It's just a normal social interaction."
Delphinium smiled, with a clear and gentle voice, reminiscent of the fragrant and translucent black tea: "Although the Honeycomb Nightclub focuses on female-oriented entertainment, its boss is a man. And his sexual orientation is normal.
"The man's code name is 'Hei Gu'. He is a middle-aged man who looks a little vulgar, but has a straightforward personality and says whatever comes to his mind. This type of boss is relatively easy to get in touch with...compared to the smiling tiger.
Much easier to understand.
"Not just the Honeycomb Nightclub - one-third of the hot springs, nightclubs, KTV and other entertainment facilities on Happy Island are all under his name.
"Many suspected demons will haunt this facility. If nothing else happens, sooner or later we will demolish a building or blow up a house during the mission. There is no harm in getting to know the boss in advance."
... If you become familiar with him in advance, you will be scolded less when you blow up his building later?
"But, Delphinium...were you not familiar with this big boss before?"
Why do you have to let me, a newcomer, come?
"You also know the bad guy's character. If he goes there, there might be a fight. After all, I heard that guy also has a bad character."
Delphinium crossed the fingers of her hands and put them on her chin, tilting her head and looking at Russell.
She showed the angelic smile that is unique to Samoyeds, and made her voice crisp, as if she had turned into a teenage girl: "As for me...I don't want to say it, but I feel like I have grown up."
It's quite cute.
"I don't want to be harassed by him. It was originally intended to reduce trouble, but that might make things more troublesome in the end.
"I can't go, and neither can the bad guys. It's difficult for us to maintain relationships with many big bosses... But now that we have a newcomer like you, it's really great -"
So Russell finally went.
On the one hand, he couldn't stand the delphinium's smile, and on the other hand, Russell was really worried that the bad guy would mess things up.
But when Russell saw the "black skeleton", he was a little surprised.
Because he had actually seen this man before... the man on the airship who wanted to give Russell a villa and a floating car, along with a maid driver.
His skin is slightly dark, which is the trace of sunbathing. Even when he is indoors, he always wears brown sunglasses - this is because his eyes are rarely afraid of light.
Because his spiritual relative is a bat, but his characteristics are not obvious. Almost all of them are negative characteristics.
But it is true that as Delphinium said, he is a carefree and vulgar man. He has no scruples in his words and even dares to directly curse the directors of the head office.
Apart from the greasy and boring joke, he really wanted to sincerely thank Russell for saving his two lives - because he happened to be at the Beehive Nightclub yesterday. I heard that it was Russell who took the decisive action, and I immediately made arrangements to thank him.
There were no surprises in this meeting.
However, after having dinner with Russell, Hei Gu invited Russell to take a bath and relax in the hot spring hotel he owned...but Russell declined politely.
Taking a bath or something with someone you don't know... is fine.
Mainly because of Hei Ku's business, Russell was always worried that if he came out after taking a bath, Hei Ku would be loyal enough to arrange some beautiful sisters for him...
...This possibility is even quite high.
Russell is still somewhat reserved in this regard.
After finishing his meal, Hei Gu personally escorted him out of the Beehive Nightclub, and directly called the driver to drive Russell home in a float car.
After Russell got in the car, he felt that the female driver in front of him looked familiar.
Long black hair, erect horse ears...
——Isn’t this the person who played with his tail in the elevator before!?
Although the other party took off her smiling mask, Russell still recognized her directly.
It turns out that she is the driver hired by the boss of Heigu?
But for some reason, Russell actually saw a sense of threat in her back.
"About Xiao Liuli..."
Suddenly, she spoke.
Russell subconsciously tensed up his body.
"……Thank you."
"What?"
Russell was stunned for a moment.
"Thank you for choosing to preserve the reputation of 'Xiao Liuli'..."
She said softly without looking back.
Russell's eyes slowly widened.
During the previous resonance, the memory obtained from Blue Gebi's mind emerged in front of Russell's eyes.
Black hair, horse ears...
Could it be said——
"Actually, I have never forgotten what happened at that time. I remember everything in my mind."
She said softly: "He likes to drink iced Coke and eat spicy crayfish. It's obviously not good for his throat, but he insists on eating it... He likes to eat it but he doesn't know how to cut it.
"Later...she fell in love with beer. But she didn't dare to get drunk. If she doesn't get drunk, it's not as good as Coca-Cola."
"...He doesn't drink Coke, maybe he just doesn't want to recall the past."
Russell said softly.
He was already sure.
This black-haired eldest sister with pony ears is none other than Lan Geyu's former girlfriend.
Although she once said that "knowledge changes destiny"... it seems that she did not change her destiny "a little" by becoming a white-collar worker as she thought back then.
Even though she seems to be just a driver now, to be able to make Russell, who has a third-level red shift, feel a sense of crisis, she is definitely not an ordinary person.
Xiao Liuli may not know...
His girlfriend also stepped into the dark world just like him. And she sank deeper than him.
…Maybe it’s best not to know.
"yes."
She sighed: "He is avoiding me. I am also avoiding him."
After a moment of silence, she continued to murmur: "Looking back in the end, it was indeed different.
"The drinks I like to drink, the work I do, my dreams for the future. Everything has changed."
"So, what about the love between you?"
"Love never changes, it only dries up and fades. It's like flower petals or old photos. At least now, it's still as fresh as new in my heart."
She smiled and said: "Whether it's Lan Gegui or Xiao Liuli, no matter what he becomes... I like him."
The aerial vehicle has begun to slowly slow down and land.
She turned back and looked at Russell: "Here we are, hero."
It was indeed a gentle face that matched her voice.
But on her left cheek, there was also an etching pattern similar to Bad Sun's, like a scar.
Her left eye is a cold prosthetic eye, and there is a barcode of unknown meaning under the eyelid.
Looking at her, Russell felt a little distracted for a moment.
He thought of a lot at that moment. It was as if he had finished reading a book and felt lost.
It changes every day. But many days later, when I look back, nothing seems to have changed.
People are in this cycle of reincarnation, life and death, over and over again.
The huge floating island is like a huge millstone suspended between heaven and earth.
He suddenly understood something.
What do you want to do...what can you do.
"Would you like to add a friend?"
After lowering the float vehicle to a height where she could get off the vehicle, she turned back and asked with a smile: "My code name is Morgan. Morgan #011203."
But Morgan quickly reacted: "Oh, by the way, you don't have a code name yet... forget it. After all, physical links are not very secure."
"...No, actually I have already thought of a code name."
Russell shook his head.
This may be an inheritance, or it may be just a commemoration.
but……
Russell believed that he needed to remember his thoughts at this moment.
Morgan asked with interest: "Oh? It's pretty good. What's your name?"
"--ultramarine."
Russell replied: "Ultramarine ultramarine."
"...the color of the sea."
Morgan sighed softly and sighed in a low voice: "It's pretty good, it's a calming color."
Russell heard this and shook his head.
"When you look at me, do you think of the sky or the sea?"
"...the sky."
Morgan smiled: "You are a hero born in the sky. No matter how you think about it, you can never think of the sea."
"yes."
Russell nodded.
He subconsciously raised his head and looked at the sky under the night sky.
Whether it's a gray sky or a blue sky... at night, it's just as dark.
It's just that unlike the other world, there are no "stars" in the night sky of this world.
Under the darkness of night, Russell looked up at the sky, his pupils as bright as the morning sun.
Those were the traces of many streams of light flowing through the bottom of his pupils under the night.
"One day, I will make people think... ultramarine should be the color of the sky."
That's the color of the sky that allows birds to fly freely.
Even in this world, there has never been an ultramarine sky.
