Chapter 115 I probably want to help her get revenge
In fact, by now, Xu Le has already based on the existing information.
Guess the ins and outs of some things.
This kind of pill that can help warriors break through is most likely the work of an alchemist.
Coupled with the divination that was countered today, Xu Le knew that this matter was most likely related to Gu Jianuo and even the team behind her.
District Chief Xiong Ze Mo...
That is no longer an existence that can be touched by oneself.
She now extended an olive branch to herself, and this was what really made Xu Le hesitate.
Do you want to continue the investigation? Or join if you can’t beat me?
But if he really joins Xiong Zemo's camp, then what's the point of investigating these things?
Joined a larger force, then investigated the criminal information of this force, and then reported it to him?
This behavior sounds stupid.
"Forget it, let's go back and talk about it first."
…
When Xu Le returned to the Night Watch branch, it was already evening.
Wang Shu, who was concerned about Bai Jing, came to the evidence department and asked about the test results of the pills.
But the laboratory technician here said with a surprised look:
"It's just an ordinary antihypertensive drug. Captain Wang Shu, where did you get it?"
"Gu Beichen brought it back."
"Don't think too much about ordinary things."
Wang Shu nodded expressionlessly and then returned to the captain's room. He happened to meet Xu Le who was about to clock out and pulled him aside.
"The evidence department said that the pills are just ordinary antihypertensive drugs. What do you say?"
"Do you believe it?" Xu Le asked back.
"I don't believe it, but what happens next?"
"Check it, isn't there any clue?"
"What did Wu Shanna say?"
"There is a problem, but I don't know exactly what it is. Tomorrow I will start taking them to handle internal tasks and observe her by the way."
"Okay, do we need to try again in terms of evidence?"
"I guess it won't work if I take the test."
"Did it break again?"
"Don't be so impatient, Brother Shu. After the captain died, you are not as calm as before.
You are now the new captain of Night Watch Team 6. If you can't calm down yourself, then the team members will be confused."
After hearing Xu Le's reminder, Wang Shu suddenly calmed down.
Yes! After the captain left, he became a lot more impetuous during this period, and even his cultivation fell behind a bit.
The captain asked him to listen more to Xu Le, maybe he expected this.
"Thank you, Xu Le."
"You're welcome, Brother Shu."
In Team 6, apart from Bai Jing, Xu Le and Wang Shu have the best relationship, so naturally they don't want to see him sink like this.
Sign in at the door of the Night Watch branch when you leave.
Meow! Ding Ke called.
When Xu Le heard about the reputation, he happened to see Wu Shana who was about to go back. Xu Le walked over and asked:
"Ready to get off work?"
"Um? Get off work? Yeah, I'm getting ready to get off work."
Although Wu Shana is one year older than Xu Le, she obviously has little experience in work and does not have the greasy feeling of Xu Le.
This feeling of youthfulness belongs to a college student who has just left school.
He is the kind of young man who is nervous when he goes to a new company or attends a new dinner party.
In other words, although Wu Shana caused him to have a wrong divination about the pills before, he fell into an alchemical counterattack.
But her identity as a student should be true.
This gives Xu Le a lot of room, and the warlock's game is not that simple.
Whoever wins first is paper, and whoever laughs last is the winner.
"You haven't eaten, have you? As your boss, come on, I'll treat you to a meal and give you some rules about the night watchman."
Faced with Xu Le's proactive invitation, Wu Shana subconsciously wanted to refuse.
Because she always refused invitations from male classmates in school.
"I, I still won't go..."
"If your boss refuses your invitation to dinner for the first time, it will be difficult for you to gain a foothold in the company in the future.
If I ask you to die during the next mission, wouldn't you be doomed as a rookie?"
"Senior, you can't, right?"
"Do you think I can? I'm a very cautious person."
Wu Shana looked at Xu Le with a suspicious look on her face, but she was slightly surprised when she saw the black cat on Xu Le's shoulder.
"Does the team leader actually have a black cat?"
"Yeah, the kind no one wants."
Meow! Ding Ke was a little dissatisfied, but Wu Shanna stepped forward and touched Ding Ke.
"I also like cats, but it's a pity that I wasn't allowed to keep them at home before."
"Why do you always bring up these sad things? Let's go and treat you to hot pot."
Wu Shana was stunned. She liked hot pot very much, but after her parents died, she hadn't eaten hot pot for a long time.
"good."
"Hey, wait a minute, I'll buy some fruit."
Xu Le took Wu Shana to the street stall across the road from the branch, where an old aunt selling strawberries squatted.
"Young man, can you buy some strawberries?"
"How to sell it, Auntie."
"7 cents a pound."
When Xu Le heard the price, the corners of his mouth twitched. The meal they had for lunch only cost 6 cents.
However, the main purpose of this trip is to have some exchanges with Wu Shana and see if there is any chance to obtain information.
So Xu Le still reluctantly bought 2 yuan worth of strawberries because he had seen Wu Shanna looking in this direction several times before.
While walking on the road, Xu Le took out the strawberries and ate them without washing them.
When it was handed to Wu Shana, Wu Shana hesitated for a moment, but in the end she didn't refuse and started eating too.
Xu Le could see that she was not that defensive about him.
So was there someone who guided her in her previous approach?
After I performed that divination, I fell into Gu Jianuo's trick.
Did she have any contact with Gu Jianuo?
If so, how should you counteract it?
This was the first time Xu Le encountered a situation where divination was countered, and the opponent he countered was a level 3 alchemist.
So for Xu Le, this is more than just a simple game.
It was also a very good experimental subject.
After ending his thoughts in an ethereal state, only a few seconds passed. Xu Le looked at Wu Shana with a smile.
"We should really thank these aunties who set up stalls selling fruits at the entrance of the branch."
"Ah? Why?"
"Because they could obviously go and rob, but they didn't do it, which saved a lot of human resources. They really did it for the sake of us night watchmen."
"Hahaha."
When Wu Shana heard Xu Le's joking remarks, she finally couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, don't keep a straight face every day. In this dark age, death is actually a very normal thing.
There will be a Kuroshio in one month, so train yourself well and try your best to survive the next Kuroshio."
"The next Kuroshio...will it be as difficult as last time?"
Wu Shanna was a little hesitant, because in the past, the black tide was blocked outside the city wall by guards and night watchmen.
In her 21 years of memory, only the last black tide had an accident.
But she actually thinks like most people.
A black tide of that magnitude was just an accident, and it probably won't happen again next time.
Looking at Wu Shana's expectant eyes, Xu Le knew what she was thinking.
However, as a ruthless warlock who can kill girls to achieve enlightenment, he directly extinguished Wu Shanna's beautiful vision.
"If you were not a night watchman, I would probably tell you that the last black tide was just an accident.
But you have become a reserve night watchman today, so now I have to tell you the truth.
In the future, the Kuroshio will be affected by the power of Gu Yinduo, and I am afraid it will become more and more difficult, and the weirdness will become more and more powerful.
But this time, the lighthouse should be prepared."
"So that's what it is..."
"So, temporary hatred is meaningless, killing weirdos will accompany us throughout our lives.
You have to live as long as possible, so that you can kill more weirdos."
"Live longer..." Wu Shana's face looked a little uncertain.
Xu Le sighed with emotion as he walked:
"I know you have some painful memories and sad stories. In fact, I also have some similar ones.
I felt like those things were all in my stomach, things like rotten wood, rubble, dull blades, lots and lots of them.
They accumulate over time, and my flesh and blood are trying hard to digest them, but they can't.
They scratched my stomach, leaving me rotten and smelly, and occasionally smelled like blood.
But don’t always tell others about your pain, because 20% of people will not take it seriously after hearing your pain.”
Wu Shana savored Xu Le's words and suddenly asked:
"What about 80%?"
"The remaining 80% will treat your pain as a joke and tell it to others."
"Um, is that so?"
"Yes, the joys and sorrows between people are not the same."
During the conversation, the two of them had arrived at the door of a hot pot restaurant with the words "Big Fat Goose Hot Pot" written on it.
“You’re not picky about your taste, are you?”
"You don't have to choose, just spicy."
"Okay, I won't pick either." Xu Le calmed down.
An hour later.
Xu Le looked at the pot in front of him and fell into deep thought.
At that time, Xu Le's attention was completely focused on the big pot. The shape of the pot was indescribably weird. Xu Le had never seen such an utensil before.
A hexagonal metal pot was filled with a dark red, viscous liquid that exuded a pungent smell.
There are also particles like seeds slowly floating on it.
Some broken pieces of meat with bones reminded Xu Le of weird minced meat.
When he stared at the pot with the ancient sound multi-view, only this prompt appeared.
【Red oil pot】
"Why don't you eat it, senior? Don't you like the taste?"
"The main reason is that I'm not hungry." Xu Le was still stubborn.
He actually took a few bites secretly just now, but he really couldn't do it, it was too spicy.
If he had to use adjectives to describe his feelings at that time, it would probably be that he, a taboo warlock, instantly learned the fire breath of a disaster warlock.
"Senior, are you afraid of spicy food?"
"No, how can I, a man, be afraid of spicy food?"
"Ha!" Wu Shana laughed.
One thing said, Xu Le felt that she was just average-looking, but now she looked even uglier when she smiled.
Especially her smile seemed to have some meaning of making fun of herself.
"Huh, it's not a sin if you can't eat spicy food."
"No, no, I just think the seniors are very nice people. I was rude."
"Forget it, let's have a good meal."
Seeing Xu Le waving his hands to show that he didn't care, Wu Shana asked tentatively:
"Um...Senior, can I have a cigarette?"
Xu Le was stunned when he heard this request. As a warlock, he had been very self-disciplined during this period. He almost never drank alcohol or had any habits like smoking.
But Xu Le feels that self-discipline is the same as morality. It is used to restrain oneself and should not interfere with others.
In that case, it's called moral kidnapping.
"Smoke it, smoke it, it doesn't matter."
"good."
Wu Shanna took out a pack of cigarettes that were not very expensive, just normal mass cigarettes, not women's cigarettes.
I lit one and took a pleasant puff.
Perhaps it was because he was under too much psychological pressure before, so he was enlightened by Xu Le again.
So she was unusually relaxed in front of Xu Le.
Especially the way she smoked reminded Xu Le of Bai Jing.
Although compared to a young student like Wu Shana, Bai Jing is simply the oiliest of oils, the kind of oil king.
But Xu Le still felt that their smoking postures were very similar.
It's like a demeanor.
"The way you smoke looks very similar to a friend of mine."
"Senior, this way of talking to girls is not very popular anymore."
"She's dead."
"Uh, I'm sorry."
"I'm not using this to chat with you. Her name was Bai Jing. She died in the last mission. You joined the team because of their deaths."
"Senior, do you care about that friend?" Wu Shana suddenly asked.
"Yes, I care a lot. In fact, I couldn't figure out some things clearly before, but when I saw you smoking, I suddenly figured it out again."
What Xu Le said was a bit confusing, at least Wu Shana didn't understand what he meant.
"As long as you figure it out, um, what did you figure out, senior?"
Xu Le, who hadn't drank for a long time, poured himself a glass of wine and drank it.
"Because I have a better place to go and I am invited by a bigger force, so I have always been in a state of confusion in my heart. I don't know if I should go."
"Wouldn't it be nice to have a better place to go?" Wu Shana also told the truth.
Xu Le nodded and acknowledged this.
"Yes, a better place and greater power would definitely be better than what we are now, but I always hesitated and subconsciously refused.
I wasn’t quite sure why I refused before. Why should I stay here when there is already a better place.”
"Senior, are you leaving the Night Watch?"
"I did waver and have this idea before, but I don't think about it anymore."
"Why?"
Under Wu Shanna's gaze, Xu Le seemed to feel a sense of relief at this time.
"Now that I think about it, I was probably stupid, and I was just carried away by my so-called friendship.
Although she and I have not known each other for a long time, only 2 months in total.
But she really takes good care of me and guides me so that I don't die outside or get lost on the road of life.
I have probably figured out what I want, and I want to know the truth.
If she really died peacefully, I would burn more paper for her.
If she was murdered, I want to avenge her.
This is probably what I’m thinking now.”
Xu Le was extremely calm when he said these words, but in Wu Shana's perception, this calmness was like the calm before the storm, particularly depressing.
"Senior, are you okay?"
"Very good, have you finished eating?"
"Well, I'm done eating."
"Let's go after eating."
"good."
After leaving this hot pot restaurant that Xu Le would probably never come to again, Xu Le sent Wu Shana back to the female members' dormitory.
He had no intention of going up, so he stood downstairs and waved goodbye to Wu Shanna, with no intention of looking back.
But Wu Shana stopped Xu Le when he left.
"senior."
"Hmm? Is something wrong?"
"Thank you for your advice."
"You're welcome. If you do a good deed every day, you will avoid a calamity every month."
"Uh, senior, go to bed early."
"The same to you."
Xu Le saw the way Wu Shanna hesitated to speak. By this time, he became more and more sure that Wu Shanna had something to hide about the pills, but he did not ask further questions and returned directly to his dormitory.
Now that we have an idea and a relationship established, we can't rush it.
Compared with this matter, the matter of promotion is more urgent. After all, the Red Moon Tribulation only lasts for a little more than a month.
"Ding Ke, watch it for me."
Meow! Ding Ke nodded.
Xu Le knew that Ding Ke could detect the appearance of peeps.
If you want to practice with peace of mind at this time, Ding Ke's help is indispensable.
Xu Le took out the Guyinduo card and drew out the [Black Card-Black Sheep Girl]
The second condition for becoming a fortune teller is to unlock an ancient Yinduo card.
Xu Le considered many options, [Four-leaf clover] [Coin] [Clown] [Angel].
But he finally chose [Black Sheep Girl]
After all, [Black Sheep Girl] was the first card he came into contact with.
It may not be the card that has appeared the most, but the meaning of this card is extraordinary to him.
He always felt that he had some extraordinary connection with this card.
So Xu Le's attempt to unlock it was this card.
Although he still hasn't figured out what unlocking means, and this situation has lasted for 10 days, he still has to study it because he is not clear!
Various divination attempts were made during the 10 days he was hospitalized, but none of them worked.
So Xu Le is going to do the opposite this time.
Be clean, be pure.
A simple touch.
This time, Xu Le did not perform any advance divination, but simply turned on the ethereal state and the ancient sound multi-vision.
Then mobilize your psychic energy to pinch the card and try to enter the state of Guyin's multi-destiny.
Unfortunately, there is still no response.
Xu Le was not discouraged. After thinking for a while, he came up with the conditions for promotion 1.
[The spiritual energy is upgraded to the perfect state of LV1 stage, and the mark extends out of the branch of Guyinduo-Shi.]
If there is a linkage between promotion conditions, is it possible that condition 1 is the prerequisite of condition 2?
After having this idea, Xu Le immediately started to take action.
He concentrated his attention, and the branch of ancient sound extended from his seventh spine.
Xu Le held the card with both hands and clumsily manipulated the solid branch.
When the branch of Gu Yin Duo Shi touched the black sheep girl, the touch that Xu Le expected did not appear.
The branch of ancient sound has actually entered the card!
This scene is very similar to how Xu Le himself fell into the whirlpool of fate before.
But last time he was the feeler, this time he is the observer.
The branch of truth sank deeper and deeper. In order to maintain its stability, Xu Le had consumed a huge amount of spiritual energy.
But even now, this process has no intention of stopping. He can't stop it.
"It's over! No more psychic powers."
When Xu Le's own spiritual energy was completely drained, the branch of Gu Yin Duo Shi dragged his body into this [Black Sheep Girl].
Xu Le opened his eyes, surrounded by endless darkness.
Far, far away, there seemed to be another small yellow light spot.
Xu Le looked around and after confirming that there was no light except there, he walked towards the light spot.
But this time, it was completely different from the previous feeling of entering various soul worlds.
This world is materialized.
Touch, temperature, and substantial air are all things that Xu Le can feel personally.
