Chapter 7 7. What? am I a criminal? (Ask for a monthly pass!)
‘Little hobby? ’
"interesting story?"
‘Some trivial gadgets? ’
Looking at the mysterious man in front of him and listening to what he said, Wang Hao was stunned for a moment, and then his heartbeat began to speed up slowly.
He seemed to have thought of something.
a silent call; a room of dazzling luxury; a catastrophe creature as docile as a pet; a simple but strange little request; a small "unremarkable" gift.
Isn't this the same as the "adventure" in novels and radio?
In such adventures, "trivial gadgets" are definitely not really "trivial".
After all, for a character of this level, what is exposed in the fingers may be a supreme treasure for ordinary people.
And if there is something in it that can give you the ability to awaken and become an awakened person
Thinking of this, Wang Hao's body that had been relaxed couldn't help but tensed up again.
So, he tried his best to calm down his mind, then raised his head and asked with a simple face, "Your Excellency. Excuse me, are there any gadgets you mentioned that can help me become an Awakened?"
Listening to Wang Hao's inner thoughts, the expression on the "mysterious man" Fang Ze's face became extraordinarily interesting.
He knew that his roommate was innocent and easy to fool.
But I never thought my roommate would be so foolish.
He just said a few words, and he actually believed it? And it's more perfect than what I designed myself. In this way, it should not be a problem to obtain high-value information and obtain good rewards.
As for what your roommate wants.
Fang Ze thinks it's great, and he wants it too.
Of course, after thinking about it, as a "big man", Fang Ze definitely couldn't say that.
So he figured out Wang Hao's "positioning" in his heart, sat on the sofa relaxed, and gently stroked the "young dragon" under his feet a few times.
"Young Dragon" raised his slender neck, made a comfortable "woo~", and then spurted a few sparks from his nostrils.
Then Fang Ze said in a relaxed tone,
"certainly."
"As long as your story is interesting enough."
was affirmed by the "mysterious man", and Wang Hao was instantly filled with fighting spirit.
He felt that this might be an opportunity to change his destiny.
So, he used his eloquence, which he was not good at, and stumblingly said, "Ge, Your Excellency. I do have an interesting story here."
"Things have to start twelve years ago."
"There is a place called Linshan County, there."
His story had just started, and before he had time to tell it, the mysterious man shook his head slightly, and said in a disappointed tone,
"You may have misunderstood what I meant."
"The story I want to hear is what you experienced firsthand."
"Not this hearsay."
The voice of the mysterious man gradually became distant, ethereal and mysterious.
"You have to understand."
"The story told by the witnesses of the story is like a mellow cake, full of tempting aroma and full of appetite."
"And like the story you said that has been passed down and processed by countless people, its own taste has long since dissipated, and it is even full of rotten and musty odors!"
"Do you understand it?"
He may have never seen the "Mysterious Man" take such a serious attitude, and Wang Hao was stunned for a while.
The original confidence was full, but it also became a little panic.
‘Your own story? ’
‘But I don’t seem to have anything interesting about myself’
'My family background is ordinary, my studies are ordinary, and my job is ordinary. The most extraordinary thing is that I don't know why I was assigned to a high-end city, and as a result, I was pushed to be in charge of the red light district.'
‘Does your Excellency want to hear this kind of story? ’
Thinking like this, Wang Hao began to have no confidence and stumbled about his life.
This time, the mysterious person in front of him did not interrupt him. But it doesn't seem to be of much interest.
Even in the narration, Wang Hao clearly felt that the other party was getting more and more disappointed.
This also made Wang Hao feel more and more depressed.
What else would you be interested in?
Thinking, thinking, Wang Hao couldn't help thinking of two things that the other party might be interested in.
One is the past that is buried deep in my heart and has never been mentioned to others.
The other is about his roommate's bizarre crime as a detective.
Wang Hao actually didn't want to talk about these two things: one is his own secret, and the other is the secret of the task force.
But facing such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Wang Hao just gave up, he was really unwilling.
Of the two things, at least one of them should be taken for a gamble, right?
So, he hesitated for a long time.
finally.
He gritted his teeth and said,
"Your Excellency, I do actually have a story that may be of interest to you."
The mysterious man made a noncommittal "Huh?"
Wang Hao sighed slightly and said, "Actually. I once had a very beautiful love, but it was destroyed by my own hands."
Having said this, his eyes were full of memories,
"She is a girl I met when I was working and studying outside in college. She is as beautiful as an angel, and has an optimistic and cheerful personality. It seems that all the beautiful words in the world can be used for her."
"But she's not a human, or an ordinary human."
"She is an awakener, and her awakening ability comes from the bloodline of her family: withered bones"
"Mysterious Man" sat upright slightly, obviously interested.
But Wang Hao didn't care about the attitude of the other party at this time. He was completely immersed in the past events of the year and began to talk about himself.
It is said to be telling a story, but in fact it is more like a kind of confession from him.
It was obvious that this matter had been in his heart for a long time. He wanted to vent for a long time.
This state of also made Fang Ze extraordinarily comfortable.
He never imagined that a small plan he made temporarily would actually succeed in snooping on such a secret past of his roommate, and he also learned about such an interesting ability.
【Withered Bones: With the awakening of power, the flesh and bones will be completely separated, the soul will be stored on the bones, but the body can be discarded at will, or just like changing clothes, it can be changed at will. 】
So gender, race means nothing to the Awakened with this ability
They collect the flesh of various creatures as their "clothes" and exert different powers.
is one of the awakening abilities best at camouflage and detection
That's it, one of the two talked and the other listened until the end of the story.
Fang Ze listened with relish the whole time, and he also understood why his roommate broke up with that woman.
After all, the ghost knows whether the other party is a real woman!
Even if the gender can be judged by the bones, but. Who knows if the body of the skin is hers, or how many years it has been passed down by their family.
However, although he is very satisfied with his roommate's story, Fang Ze still needs to play the full set.
He couldn't really help his roommate wake up, so although he listened to it, he kept shaking his head slightly, paving the way for his rejection later.
After talking about it later, Wang Hao gradually came back to his senses, and also found that the "mysterious man" in front of him did not think highly of his story.
He didn't feel that the "mysterious man" in front of him was deliberately embarrassing himself. After all, for such a big man, there is no need to make fun of himself.
He just thought that the other party might have heard too many similar stories, or knew too many similar awakening abilities, so he didn't think that what happened to him was so strange.
What I think is wonderful, maybe just because I am in it and put my feelings into it. For others, it may just be a **** emotional story.
However, thinking of such a secret experience, he failed to gain the approval of the mysterious person in front of him. Wang Hao couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
So he sighed slightly and stopped slowly.
He gave up.
He bowed slightly to the mysterious man in frustration and said, "Your Excellency. I'm really sorry. My life may not be exciting enough to meet your requirements. If I go on, I may just waste your precious time."
"So, can you let me go back?"
Actually, Fang Ze thinks the love life of his roommate is very exciting.
But the story of prostituting for nothing, he was really tired.
So he gave a faint "um" and said, "Of course you can."
Speaking of this, he added in a flat voice, "Actually, your story is not bad, but it's just a little bit worse." There was no pity in his tone, as if the host was politely complimenting him when he was leaving.
After , Fang Ze was ready to send Wang Hao back.
And right now.
I don't know if the words of "mysterious man" stimulated Wang Hao.
Wang Hao had a hesitant look on his face.
‘Only a little off? ’
‘I have two stories, one failed, but there is another one, do you want to gamble again? ’
hesitant, hesitant
After a moment, he finally made up his mind, and then he hurriedly shouted, "Your Excellency! Please wait! Please give me another chance!"
Suddenly seeing his roommate behave like this, Fang Ze couldn't help but stunned for a moment, and then conditioned reflex to stop the movement in his hand.
However, right after that, he remembered his "identity", so he resumed his disguise, sat there, looked at Wang Hao with a cold face, and said nothing.
At this time, Wang Hao also discovered his gaffe.
Because the terrifying disaster creature at the foot of the mysterious man has turned his head to stare at him coldly, his vertical pupils are full of dangerous rays of light, and flames overflow between the opening and closing of the giant mouth.
So he hurried to make amends, he said, "Your Excellency. Please forgive my rudeness. It's just that I suddenly thought of a story that must be of interest to you!"
"It's about my roommate!"
"Mysterious Man" Fang Ze was stunned for a moment.
Then he calmly said "Huh?"
Seeing that the mysterious person in front of him was not angry, Wang Hao breathed a sigh of relief. But he also knew how valuable the opportunity was, so he quickly said briefly,
"That's right. I'm a detective, but my roommate is a criminal."
"He and his accomplices planned and executed a case of extermination of a wealthy businessman."
"And when they were retreating, they seemed to be attacked by a certain force."
"His accomplice escaped, he was injured and comatose, and was found by the Detective Agency who came from behind."
"After waking up, he lost his memory. After research by the Investigation Agency and the Security Bureau, they decided to forge his identity and make him mistakenly think that he was a detective to help solve the case. And lure his accomplices to show up."
"And I was also given a secret mission to be his roommate and keep an eye on him!"
“.”
“.”
At the same time, the "mysterious man" Fang Ze:
? ? ?
‘The sack of the bridge. ’
'Wait a moment. ’
‘What did I hear? ’
‘Am I a criminal? ? ? ’
At that moment, Fang Ze, who realized it later, suspected that something was wrong with his ears.
