Doomsday Wonderland

When the lights came on, Kakada slowly approached the woman who had just been subdued on the ground, and stopped when she was still a step away.

Lin Sanjiu fell to the ground, was pressed to the ground by a tooling worker, and was panting lowly. The disguise on her body disappeared and her original appearance was restored; the bandages, racer vest, field pants and short boots on her body were all the same clothes that had appeared many times in the terminal casino - now the "correct version" of Lin Sanjiu finally appeared, but the person who wanted to take her away was not Kiyotura.

"Don't blame me." Jia Jiatian shook his head and said, "Don't forget, you offered to join the job yourself. You wanted to use me to get to the end, but you didn't think that you might have to pay for it. Since you asked for the job , I have to do my share... Don't worry, after you join, you will have many years of opportunity to slowly reflect on regrets."

Lin Sanjiu bit his lips so hard that he couldn't see any blood. She struggled violently, but still couldn't shake the dungeon employee who grabbed her hands firmly; the only thing she could do was to barely lift her neck and glance back.

At this moment, the neighborhood has been surrounded by the dungeon employees brought by Jia Jiatian. In addition to the human wall formed by the employees, there are also some bold and lively evolutionaries; from the faces staring at her, In the meantime, Kiyotaka separated the crowd and silently approached.

He gave up the "role" he had performed before, and just stood there without saying a word, and it was impossible to notice him - Jia Jiatian turned his head and smiled at him: "Oh, you too coming?"

Kiyotaka didn't make a sound, took out a crumpled cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth.

He touched his body a few times and found a lighter.

Lowering his eyes, he blocked the lighter with one hand, and lit the fire with a clatter—a small clump of red flames lit up from his palm, illuminating his eyelashes and the tip of his nose; restrained, holding back The blood-red color faded from his cheeks, returning to his usual cool and lazy appearance.

Jia Jiatian didn't seem to get used to throwing his own voice out, but he landed on the ground empty, without even a single echo. He coughed and said without embarrassment, "I'm here to bring a new employee..."

Kiyomiku took a puff of cigarette, his eyes still on the cigarette between his fingers, as if it didn't do his job well enough to make him unsatisfied.

"It's very similar to the person I'm looking for," he said after exhaling a breath of smoke.

"It looks like it, there are too many here." Jia Jiatian's face froze unconsciously, but he still maintained a bit of courtesy. After thinking about it, he suddenly tilted his head and asked, "...She is not?"

Qing Jiuruu paused, frowned, lowered his head and took a breath of cigarette.

This question is really hard to answer. If he admits that Lin Sanjiu is his target, then the dungeon will undoubtedly know immediately, and they will leave next; if not, then there is no reason to stop Jia Jiatian from taking people away.

"I haven't seen it for many years, and I'm not too sure." Kiyotaka said slowly, "Would you mind letting me take a closer look?"

"Of course I don't mind," Jia Jiatian cooperated very well, "I'm willing to try my best to help you see clearly."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kiyotaka raised his head abruptly—however, Jia Jiatian was too close, and his movements were extremely fast, leaving no room for anyone to react at all; in the blink of an eye, Lin Sanjiu He was grabbed by the neck and pulled up.

Even though Jiajiatian is much shorter than Lin Sanjiu, at this moment, after he stretched his arms and pulled Lin Sanjiu up, the latter seemed to be a piece of bacon hanging on a hook; her body was heavy and drooping, weak and straight. It fell straight into Ka Jiatian's hand, unable to even blink an eyelid.

"Is that okay?" Jia Jiatian laughed, "Is that the person you're looking for?"

Qing Jiuliu took a step in front of Lin Sanjiu, another step, and stopped.

"It's so close, you should see it clearly, right?" Jia Jiatian asked, "What's the matter, isn't it?"

Falling into the hands of an employee like Jia Jiatian, and being restrained by his ability, I am afraid it not only means that Lin Sanjiu has lost all the ability to resist - the copy will naturally never allow fighting between employees to cause internal friction. ; after all, human employees are a very valuable asset to replicas.

Even if you haven't joined the company or inquired about the rules from the copy, you can imagine what means it will use to stop infighting: punishment after the event may also mean that assets will be damaged; if the direct attack between employees cannot be effective, Wouldn't it be foolproof?

Although Qing Jiuliu was motionless at the moment, there was not much expression on his face, but it seemed to confirm this guess; in the depths of his silence, there seemed to be a vague anxiety and unwillingness that could not be concealed by the tumbling-obviously, he All his thoughts were focused on how to rescue Lin Sanjiu, so that he didn't even have the thought to cover up his emotions.

Jia Jiatian narrowed his eyes slightly, not knowing what he was thinking, he suddenly turned his head and whispered to the people around him, "Take her away."

"But..." One of them looked up at Qing Kuyu, and seemed to be somewhat taboo.

"Obviously, this new colleague is not the person he is looking for," Jia Jiatian said in a relaxed tone, "Besides, even if it is, it can't hinder the entry of new employees of the copy. And it's a good thing, the person who has been looking for, next For several years, it is impossible to be separated again, why is it not a good thing? Okay, hurry up and take people away."

After he let go, Lin Sanjiu regained her mobility; however, being handed over from one dungeon employee to another dungeon employee did not give her much chance to resist and escape—the two of them were alone They held Lin Sanjiu down on one side, even if she didn't cooperate or was unwilling, they just pushed her back and stumbled back out, and involuntarily walked out with her.

"and many more!"

Qing Jiulu suddenly gave a low drink, took a few steps to grab it, stretched out his arms, and grabbed Lin Sanjiu's wrist.

Jia Jiatian took a step forward, stood between the two of them, and asked coldly, "Is there any problem?"

Kiyukuru didn't seem to even be aware of his existence.

When he doesn't need to perform, I'm afraid he rarely gets emotional like this: it seems that Lin Sanjiu is trapped in quicksand, being quickly swallowed into the depths of quicksand, but he can't pull her out. Kiyotaka stared at her without blinking, and the anxiety that was born was almost despair - as if he could see nothing but Lin Sanjiu at the moment; as if he wanted to sacrifice all his eyes to her alone, in order to resist everything The fate of the outside world changed, because other than that, Qing Jiuru had no choice.

"As I said," Jia Jiatian said again, "if she is your target, you should thank me before it's too late..."

At this moment, Lin Sanjiu suddenly smiled at Qing Jiulu.

"It's okay," she reassured softly, "it really doesn't matter..."

Although the dungeon staff was still pressing his shoulders, Lin Sanjiu leaned forward as best he could, and whispered a word beside Qingkuyu. Kiyotaka lowered his eyes almost immediately, and glanced at the ground—Jia Jiatian also noticed this detail, he glanced hard at the ground several times, and waved his hand quickly, causing the dungeon staff to drag Lin Sanjiu away, away from It seemed that he was afraid of what would happen on the ground.

"Okay, let's go, everyone, let's go back and play," Jia Jiatian waved his hand, motioning for the evolutionaries in a circle to disperse, "There's nothing to see."

Lin Sanjiu turned her head, her eyes bright as morning stars, and met Qing Jiuliu's gaze from a distance; after that glance, she turned her head and said to the person beside her, "Don't pull me, I will go by myself."

After she was taken away by the dungeon staff and completely disappeared from the casino, the gamblers had long since dispersed; only Kiyotaka was still standing there, dazed.

It is not quite right to say that he is the only person left: because the tooling employee who caught Lin Sanjiu is also standing not far from him at the moment, covering his mouth with one hand, as if he is Contemplative; the two were four or five paces apart, neither looking at the other - so as long as they didn't come closer, no one would have thought, they were talking in a low voice.

"...When is it?" Kiyotaka's lips were barely noticeable.

"Being pressed to the ground, before the lights were turned on in the casino." The tooling worker whispered from the palm of his hand covering his mouth.

"After turning on the light, you already held her down?"

"Yes."

Kiyotaka let out a long sigh of relief.

"That's really the only way..." He still looked at the direction Lin Sanjiu left, and said in a low voice. "I actually didn't notice such a conspicuous clue..."

"clue?"

"Boots," Kiyotaka glanced at the ground and said, "I should have realized when I saw those boots... Lin Sanjiu threw the boots away in the VIP room and didn't have time to put on new ones. , I was wearing a pair of short boots when I was caught... But I was so anxious at the time, I saw it, but I didn't notice it."

"Oh yes, it turned out to be this, but fortunately Jia Jiatian didn't notice it." The tooling employee was silent for half a second and asked, "What she told you just now..."

Kiyotaka lowered his head, and seemed to realize that the cigarette in his hand disappeared at some point.

With a wry smile, he replied without turning his eyes: "She told me just now... 'The minute I want, the minute you are willing to fly into the flames and forget the world, I have already got it'."

"...I didn't expect that she would never leave, and had been waiting for an opportunity in the casino."

After a while, the tooling employee also sighed and said, "How many times has Pan Cui been to the terminal casino for you? She has even met the conditions of disguising as a copy employee."

"I don't know either." Qing Jiuru was still a little stunned. "Did she tell you anything else?"

"She said a few words, but I couldn't understand it." The tooling employee - or should be said, Lin Sanjiu - tilted his head slightly and recalled: "She said, because we are all recruited employees by Jiajiatian. , so she became like me, but instead saved 'Pan Cui'... But now she was taken away in my place, I really can't think of how 'Pan Cui' could be saved."

Qing Jiuruu thought for a while, and suddenly laughed lowly—as if the long wind blew through the cloud and stretched it over the sea wave again.

"I guessed it, I didn't expect her to know so much about dungeons." He said this, glanced sideways at a very slight angle, and said in a low voice, "Hey, the effect of the items on your body has disappeared."

Lin Sanjiu looked down, and sure enough, he saw his two bare feet again.
