Chapter 30 Night Market

After the rain.

Midnight, Long Street.

The street lights are dim and warm.

Occasionally there are cars speeding by on the street.

Some people with rich nightlife are laughing and walking slowly on the street.

Flicker.

Three silhouettes emerge from the street.

Wu Xiaode leaned against the wall and let out a long breath.

“Back,” he murmured.

“Finally back.” Xia Huilan said with lingering fears.

“Elder sister, I need a break.” Xia Salamander said.

“Let’s go to the alley, I’ll put you back in the suitcase, and wait until I find a place with an outlet to charge you.” Xia Huilan said.

“Charging? Xia Salamander is actually charging?” Wu Xiaode said strangely.

“She’s compatible with a lot of energy supplements, from solar to electric to nuclear—to be honest, she’s playing a baby with me,” says Xia Huilan.

After he finished speaking, he dragged Xia Salaman into a small alley.

Wu Xiaode remembered something, jumped up the fence and looked towards the big tree.

Before leaving, he put the suitcase full of money on the tree.

– the box is still there!

Wu Xiaode took off the suitcase, feeling a little more secure in his heart.

My house and Sister Lan’s house were burned down.

If there is no money, even room and board will be a problem.

Now that I have this money, I am not afraid.

He shook his head and took a look at his phone.

A group message popped up:

“@All members came back alive with a squeak.”

This is the message just sent by the club boss.

There are sporadic responses below.

Wu Xiaode was just about to reply when he suddenly remembered that in this S-Rank club group, he is a Martial Arts expert and has a very high Soul Power.

——How can you come back so soon?

The club boss should be very strong, so come back after killing it.

Is it myself, or wait for more people to respond, let’s just mix in and respond together.

Thinking about this, he put down the phone again.

Waited for a while.

Xia Huilan came out of the alley, dragged a suitcase, and smiled at him: “Finally passed the first night safely, now where are we going?”

” I’m so hungry, I want something to eat.”

“Me too.”

 …

Night market.

Wu Xiaode slumped in his chair, Xia Huilan sat aside, ticking off the menu.

It was 6 o’clock in the evening when I returned from the death cave, and now it is about 1 o’clock in the middle of the night.

From driving away the gangsters, confessing to Zhao Junyu, talking to the female corpse in the burning building, saving Xia Huilan, killing three people in a row, joining the S-Rank club, going to the underground passage to fight the human-headed basilisk, and completing the undead Tasks, dealing with the one-horned three-eyed giant snake, and guessing the devil—

This is what happened in just 7 hours!

Wu Xiaode thought it was incredible.

—I’m tired and hungry now.

It just so happened that Xia Huilan didn’t have dinner either, so it’s better to have a late-night snack first.

“What do you want to order?” Xia Huilan handed Wu Xiaode the menu.

Wu Xiaode glanced at it and shouted: “Boss, order, just these dishes, hurry up!”

“Good!”

The Boss responded from a distance and hurried over to take the menu away.

“Is there a power strip?” Xia Huilan asked.

“Yes, it’s over there.” The Boss pointed.

Xia Huilan pulled a plug from the trunk, pulled it, and plugged it into the power strip.

Wu Xiaode suddenly heard a soft laughter coming from the suitcase.

“She’s smiling?” Wu Xiaode asked.

“No, she’s sleeping, this is her charging reminder tone.” Xia Huilan shrugged.

She poured a cup of hot water for Wu Xiaode, and said with concern: “I saw a lot of corpses fighting with you through remote monitoring, are you not injured?”

“You Help me see what’s on my back.” Wu Xiaode opened his clothes and turned his back.

“It’s nothing.” Xia Huilan said after reading it several times.

“Strange…” Wu Xiaode muttered.

When I faced the one-horned three-eyed snake before, there was a piercing pain in my back, which woke me up on the spot.

Otherwise, whether I can come back alive remains to be seen.

No, this time is too much.

– I must never make such a mistake again in the future.

“What else is uncomfortable?” Xia Huilan asked.

“My wrist hurts a bit.” Wu Xiaode said.

Xia Huilan took his hand and squeezed it slowly.

Wu Xiaode let her squeeze for him, squinted his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slowly drew an arc.

When I was in junior high school, I once rolled down the stairs with others and broke my arm. It was also Xia Huilan who was taking care of herself.

Xia Huilan had been ill for a while after she went to university and had a high fever and was resting in bed at home.

That time, Wu Xiaode took leave to take care of her for a few days.

The two have a tacit understanding on this kind of thing, and both feel that as it should be by rights.

After all.

No one else can take care of them.

“Next midnight, I’ll accompany you.” Xia Huilan whispered.

“No, it’s too dangerous.” Wu Xiaode said.

Xia Huilan stared at him with her beautiful eyes wide open.

“Let’s talk about it.” Wu Xiaode said carelessly.

Although the soft rice is very fragrant, I must not let Sister Lan go next time.

Sister Lan didn’t see the snake.

That sharp horn three-eyed snake is too terrifying and can manipulate people’s thoughts.

It must have many powerful abilities.

I’m really worried.

Wu Xiaode was thinking about it when he suddenly saw a familiar face talking to Boss not far away.

The man spoke for a while, and the Boss nodded again and again.

After finishing speaking, the man walked over slowly and sat down at the table of the two.

“This is the elder sister of Xia Huilan, I’m glad to meet, I’m Zhao Junyu.”

Zhao Junyu said.

“What did you tell Boss?” Wu Xiaode asked.

“I added a few dishes—don’t you introduce me?” Zhao Junyu asked.

“Oh,” Wu Xiaode took his hand out of Xia Huilan’s hand, moved a chair for Zhao Junyu, and said, “Sit.”

“This is a friend of mine named My name is Zhao Junyu, and hobby is a public confession—this is Xia Huilan, a scientist.” Wu Xiaode introduced them to the two.

“Hello, Miss Xia.” Zhao Junyu’s mouth twitched as he greeted politely.

“Hello.” Xia Huilan laughed.

——Wu Xiaode introduced it so casually, at first glance, he regarded the other party as his own, so don’t be too vigilant.

“Miss Xia, I’m here tonight mainly for you.” Zhao Junyu said.

“Me?” Xia Huilan asked in confusion.

“Yes, my family owns shares of Bright United Manufacturing Technology Co., Ltd. and has a certain right to speak. It happened that Little Wu told me about your situation. I would like to invite you to return to the company and continue to work. “Zhao Junyu said.

Xia Huilan looked at Wu Xiaode.

“You decide.” Wu Xiaode said.

Xia Huilan said: “I have already written my resignation–”

Zhao Junyu interrupted her and said, “Don’t worry, all the middle and senior management will be replaced, as long as you go back, the company’s scientific research direction You are responsible.”

Xia Huilan was startled.

Bright United Manufacturing Technology Co., Ltd. is a huge monster. Is it crazy that this college student can say such a thing?

“Are you sure?” Wu Xiaode asked.

“Of course, we have studied the past scientific and technological achievements, and talked with many middle-level scientific research personnel overnight, searched the company’s R&D line patent catalog, and found that the real leader should be Miss Xia Huilan.” Zhao Junyu said.

“He shouldn’t be bragging.” Wu Xiaode pointed at Xia Huilan.

“If I’m really in charge…what about my mentor?” Xia Huilan asked.

“This is what happened tonight. The police have already experienced the corpse and came to the conclusion that he had hallucinated from a drug overdose and jumped off the building and fell to his death.” Zhao Junyu said.

Xia Huilan was stunned, pulled out her phone, and started looking for messages.

“Drug use? I really don’t know about this…”

She flipped through the messages on the phone screen and muttered softly.

Wu Xiaode and Zhao Junyu looked at each other and didn’t say a word.

At this time, a few side dishes were served.

Wu Xiaode grabbed the bowl and went to put a few bowls of rice, and the three of them started eating.

Zhao Junyu didn’t eat much, but after using chopsticks a few times, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, and started drinking the tea in his own cup.

“I need to finish that…” Xia Huilan murmured after reading the message.

Wu Xiaode subconsciously looked up at her.

Yes.

According to Xia Huilan’s original words, the Xia Salamander is a 92024-type combat robot, and a more terrifying model has not been completed.

– Type 92025.

Xia Huilan clapped her hands and said determinedly, “Little Wu, I’m going to create a stronger girl for you to use at night.”

Zhao Junyu subconsciously looked up at Wu Xiaode.

“You? At night? With?” he asked in an incomprehensible tone.

“I can do it myself.” Wu Xiaode shook his head.

Although…

But I can’t let Sister Lan take another risk.

“Little Wu, don’t be too big in the face of danger. You really need something to help you, otherwise your consumption will be too fast.” Xia Huilan said in a positive tone.

Zhao Junyu looked at Wu Xiaode and Xia Huilan.

Both looked serious.

Zhao Junyu’s eyebrows moved, and he began to think about the specific meaning of these words.

Wu Xiaode was defeated by Xia Huilan’s eyes, and he said:

“Maybe the place I teleported is extremely dangerous. Elsewhere, there are not so scary monsters.”

“That’s a good excuse, but the world is full of unknowns, and you have to prepare for the worst.” Xia Huilan insisted.

Wu Xiaode lowered his head, suddenly remembering the group announcement of the S-Rank club.

“Life-saving is the first principle.”

Since life-saving is the first principle, it proves that no matter where you go, there will be danger.

According to the undead man-

It was the age of mythology.

There are only demons, no gods.

The devils are gods, they destroy everything and eat people for pleasure.

So it’s already obvious how dangerous that world is.

But this kind of thing doesn’t need to be said to make Xia Huilan worry.

He put away his phone and said resolutely: “Sister Lan, I won’t have a problem. As for you – you have already left that technology company, so there is no need to go back.”

Xia Huilan did not speak for a while.

Zhao Junyu said: “To be honest, that company is the strongest mecha research company in the country, and only it is worthy of Miss Xia Huilan’s research and development capabilities.”

“It’s too tired, it’s unnecessary, she doesn’t want to do it herself, don’t force her.” Wu Xiaode glared at him and said.

“Little Wu, you are making progress, and others will also make progress. What if one day that world merges with our world?” Zhao Junyu said seriously.

Wu Xiaode was shocked.

I really didn’t think about this angle.

Is it true?

He gave Zhao Junyu a serious questioning look.

Zhao Junyu was nodded with worry and sighed: “This is the most popular guess at the moment.”

“I have to think about it again.” Xia Huilan hesitated.

The sound of a crow suddenly sounded in Wu Xiaode’s ear.

The Raven Spirit had been quietly resting on his shoulders, and then he flapped his wings and said, “Hey, Little Wu, I’m exhausted, I’m going back to draw Soul Power, and these Soul Powers will be given to you first. .”

The Book of Undead opens.

Wu Xiaode appeared in front of Wu Xiaode with lines of small words of ice crystals exuding cold air:

“The Spirit of the Crow has distributed some of the accumulated Soul Power to you.”

“Your Soul Power limit has been raised.”

“Current Soul Power: 7/7.”

The crow yawned, flapping its wings and said: “10 points Soul Power is a dividing line, let’s try to spend the night together tomorrow night and get more Soul Power upgrades.”

“Okay, you can go back to rest – how can I find you tomorrow night?” Wu Xiaode asked.

“There’s a wall on your Book of Undead, and I’ll leave you a contact on that wall – it’s your only connection to Spirit World,” Crow said.

That’s Wishwall.

“Okay, keep in touch.” Wu Xiaode said.

“See you soon!”

The crow spirit flapped its wings, flew high into the sky and disappeared.
