Card Room

【Chapter 361, The Purpose of the Sofa】

Hearing Yu Hanjiang's words, the teammates immediately went back to pack their things. They only brought a set of clothes for a change of clothes, as well as their mobile phones and ID cards. They packed lightly, each with a backpack, and soon assembled downstairs.

The car couldn't fit eight people, so Lao Mo simply drove the tour bus he bought out of the garage, his teammates got on the bus one by one and sat down, Lao Mo started the car and galloped all the way to the railway station of Moon City.

On the way, looking at Yu Hanjiang's serious face, Shao Qingge asked suspiciously: "What's so urgent that you have to go to Sun City overnight?"

"I don't know the specific situation." Yu Hanjiang explained, "Mr. Tang from the Intelligence Bureau gave the news, saying that the Hunter will make a big move in Sun City in the past few days. Let us go and join him."

"Intelligence Bureau?" Hearing this word, Liu Qiao couldn't help clenching her fists tightly. At first, she asked the Intelligence Bureau to help find out her sister's whereabouts, but the other party said, "There is no such person", her sister has never been to the main city, It is very likely that they will be eliminated in the first four rounds. She had always had a glimmer of hope in her heart, wanting the Intelligence Agency to confirm the accuracy of the information, maybe it was just missed?

"Xiao Liu, Mr. Tang, the director of the Intelligence Bureau, is also Brother Jiu's former teammate. We will join him when we arrive in Sun City." Xiao Lou saw through Liu Qiao's thoughts at a glance, looked at Liu Qiao, and said warmly Said, "About your sister, you can ask Mr. Tang personally when the time comes, even if there is no news, don't be discouraged, as long as we can go back, your sister can also be saved."

"Well, I know." Liu Qiao nodded, let go of his hands, and looked a lot more relaxed.

"By the way, if we go to Sun City by train, how long will it take?" Ye Qi asked suddenly.

"72 hours." Shao Qingge just checked the train ticket with his mobile phone, so he knows the arrival time of the bullet train. Hearing Ye Qi's question, he responded, then looked at Yu Hanjiang and said, "It will take three days on the road, is there time? How about we take a plane instead?"

"When is the nearest flight?" Yu Hanjiang asked.

"Let me take a look." Shao Qingge turned on the laptop, connected to the mobile hotspot, and searched for the flight from Moon City to Sun City. However, to his surprise, the nearest flight was at noon two days later, and the time to arrive at Sun City was about the same as taking the train now. For today's and tomorrow's flights, the tickets are all displayed as "sold out", and there is a note in small print: "Universal tickets cannot be used."

"It's sold out, which means that all the seats are sold out. The plane can't sell standing tickets, so we can't let us stand in the cabin." Shao Qingge squeezed the space between his brows with a headache, and said, "The train, let's take [ Universal ticket】Jump in line, I guess there will be no seat after getting on the bus, all eight are standing tickets, are we allowed to stand for 72 hours?"

"You don't have to worry about the seats. I remember that there are a few stops on the way, and a group of people will go down. They will rest after paying for their tickets," Xiao Lou said.

"Then take the train." Shao Qingge shrugged helplessly, turned off the computer, and said, "Currently, this is the only means of transportation that can go to Sun City."

Yu Hanjiang nodded resolutely: "Okay, go to the train station and take the bullet train at 1:30 in the morning."

Every seat on the plane corresponds to a ticket, which has been sold out, and they can't get on with a common ticket. The bullet train can stand in the aisle or at the junction of the carriages. After a hard night, they may be able to get a ticket after someone gets off the train tomorrow.

Regarding the "standing ticket", Liu Qiao and Ye Qi had no objection. They were students, and they had bought standing tickets when they couldn't afford train tickets when they went home during the holidays. It's just that Shao Qingge, the big boss, suffered from this kind of crime.

Ye Qi happened to be sitting in the same row with Shao Qingge, leaned close to his ear and whispered: "If you can't stand it, you can borrow Lao Mo's lazy sofa to sleep. I remember that card does not restrict the use of secret rooms, the main city The world should be able to use it too."

Shao Qingge didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Lao Mo's card is quite timely, and it will come in handy as soon as he draws it. It seems that everyone can only take turns using [Lazy Sofa] to rest tonight."

They just came back from the tenth level, and they are mentally exhausted at this time, especially at the end of the tenth level, they experienced a collective escape in the underground secret room, but they returned to the main city before they had time to rest, and they had to go to the train again, or eight cards standing ticket...

Standing in the aisle all night is definitely unbearable, and Lao Mo's [Lazy Sofa] card is indeed timely.

***

Lao Mo drove the bus and took the airport expressway, and arrived at the railway station in Moon City in half an hour. He parked the car in the underground parking lot and paid a week's parking fee in advance, and the eight of them took their luggage and walked quickly to security checkpoint.

Yu Hanjiang took the lead to take out the [Universal Ticket] card. When passing through the security check, this card automatically became a ticket for the No. KP-0714 bullet train departing from Moon City to Sun City at 01:30 in the morning.

The eight people passed the security check in turn and entered the waiting hall.

As soon as I walked into the hall, I heard the soft voice of the female announcer: "Everyone, the bullet train No. KP-0714 from Moon City to Sun City is now starting to check tickets. Please take your belongings with you. Check in at the A10 ticket gate and B10 ticket gate."

The entrance of the waiting hall is the A1 ticket gate, and it takes a long distance to walk to the A10. Yu Hanjiang glanced at his watch, and strode forward, and his teammates quickly followed.

When we walked to the A10 ticket gate, there was already a long queue here.

Shao Qingge was puzzled: "There are still so many people on the bus in the early morning, is there usually so much passenger traffic between the two main cities?"

Ye Qi scratched his head: "

I don't know, we have never been to the City of the Sun. Does Uncle Mo know? "

Everyone turned their attention to Lao Mo, who knew the main city better, and the latter explained: "These two cities are the central cities of the card world. They can be understood as Beijing and Shanghai in our reality. The bullet trains are basically full, and there are many locals and foreigners coming and going for business and tourism, every day.”

Xiao Lou looked around and found that everyone was busy queuing up and no one was paying attention to them, so he asked softly, "What are the challengers doing as they go back and forth between the two main cities?" Since then, I have been busy challenging the secret room, and have never thought about traveling to another main city. Are the other challengers so free?

Lao Mo smiled wryly and shook his head: "Not all challengers insist on going back like us." He lowered his voice and asked his teammates to come over, and then continued: "Remember? I told everyone , Some challengers decide to live in the card world. As long as they have powerful cards, they are not afraid of the weekly secret room every week, and they can live a good life in this world. Moon City and Sun City are rich in products, and they Traveling between the two cities, you can do some buying and selling business, for example, transport the seafood from Sun City to sell here, and then send the delicacies here to sell at a high price there."

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other.

Those challengers who are unwilling to return to the real world actually start a business seriously in the card world?

Sun City is a seaside city, seafood is of course cheap, and things like fish, shrimp and crab are naturally cheap. The City of the Moon is located between the mountains and forests, and the production of exotic flowers and plants is abundant, and the meat of beef and mutton is delicious. Buying and selling to earn the price difference is indeed a good way to make money.

Some challengers have no relatives worth caring about in reality, and their lives are very unsatisfactory. It is their personal choice to stay here. Yu Hanjiang does not comment on these people's choices. He only knows that he and his teammates will go back.

Seeing that it was their turn soon, Yu Hanjiang gave his teammates a wink, stopped the discussion, and queued up to check tickets and enter the station one by one.

Their ticket shows carriage 3.

After entering the station, everyone walked to the No. 3 compartment, got on the train, and found that the compartment was full of people. The eight of them boarded the train with [universal tickets] when the tickets were sold out, but they could only be converted into standing tickets. Poor Xixi stood in the aisle.

Yu Hanjiang glanced at the carriage, probably because he got on the train at 1:30 in the morning. The passengers looked very tired. After putting away their luggage, the carriage quickly became quiet, and most of the passengers fell asleep leaning on their seats.

Yu Hanjiang led everyone to the junction of carriages 3 and 4.

The space here is relatively spacious. Everyone put their backpacks on the ground and looked at the exhaustion on the faces of their teammates. Yu Hanjiang felt very sorry. If he hadn't been in a hurry to find Brother Nine, he wouldn't have rushed all night just after he came out of the tenth level.

He looked at Lao Mo and asked in a low voice: "Can the lazy sofa be used?"

Lao Mo nodded his head and activated the S card he had just drawn. Everyone saw a dark brown beanbag suddenly appearing in the open space at the junction of the carriages. The material was soft and comfortable at first glance.

Old Mo said: "The sofa cools down once every 3 hours. Lying on it can relieve fatigue and restore full energy. Which one of you will come first?"

Yu Hanjiang looked at Liu Qiao and Qu Wanyue, and said, "Ladies first, the two girls will try first."

Liu Qiao dragged her body with severe blood disease in the tenth level, and ran wildly to find a safe zone in the rainy night. Although she never complained of being tired, Yu Hanjiang could see the obvious dark circles under her eyelids. Not to mention, Teacher Qu was pregnant and ran around with everyone, so she hadn't had a good rest for two days.

The two girls looked at each other, Qu Wanyue smiled and said, "Xiaoqiao comes first."

Liu Qiao didn't refuse, turned around and sat on it.

As soon as she sat on it, her body seemed to be wrapped in a layer of soft feathers. The warm and comfortable feeling was countless times better than the bed at home. She only sat for a few seconds, and she felt full of energy all over her body, as refreshed as when she woke up from a peaceful sleep. Liu Qiao looked at Lao Mo in surprise: "Uncle Mo, this sofa is really easy to use!"

Mo Xuemin said cheerfully, "Can it really relieve fatigue?"

Liu Qiao nodded vigorously: "I'm full of energy now, it's okay to get out of the car and run 10,000 meters." She stood up, pulled Qu Wanyue and said, "Sister Yue, just sit and watch."

After sitting down, Qu Wanyue also sighed: "It's really amazing. If only there is such a lazy sofa in reality, I want to buy it no matter how expensive it is... It's a hundred times more comfortable than a massage chair."

Hearing this, Ye Qi couldn't help but said: "Remove fatigue? I remember that my suona can also remove negative states, so it should also be able to temporarily relieve fatigue."

Xiao Lou looked at him and said, "Are you sure, you want to play the suona on the train in the dead of night?"

Everyone: "..."

If Ye Qi really blew the suona, it is estimated that all the passengers in the car would jump over and beat him up together.

Ye Qi scratched his hair with a dry smile: "I'll just say it casually. Ahem, it's enough for everyone to sit on the sofa. Come on, take turns."

Everyone sat on the lazy sofa in turn, and the physical fatigue disappeared, and they became energetic instead. It's just that the cooling time of sofas is 3 hours, and their energy can only last for 3 hours.

But it's better than working all night.

Lao Mo put away the card and said: "This card seems to be quite useful? In the future, if you encounter a situation of being chased and killed, and you are tired from running, you can sit down and rest for a while before continuing on the road?"

Xiao Lou nodded: "It is worthy of the strength of an S-level card. Is there a limit to the number of times it can be used?"

Old Mo said: "After using the sofa, the energetic state will last for 3 hours, and the lazy sofa can only be used once in 24 hours. So after 3 hours, everyone may feel tired again."

Ye Qi asked: "Where is Professor Xiao's Lu Yu? Can you summon him to drink tea?"

Xiao Lou said helplessly: "Lu Yu is an ancient character, and he cannot be summoned in the main city environment."

Ye Qi; "..."

It's 1:30, everyone can be full of energy until 4:30, he can't play the suona in the carriage at 4:30 in the morning, can he? Fortunately, after 4:30, it will be dawn after a few more hours of patience.

Yu Hanjiang said: "Everyone, let's have a rest."

Xiao Lou looked back at the compartment with the lights off. This familiar scene suddenly made some memory fragments pop up in his mind. Once, he and Yu Hanjiang were on the high-speed train as flight attendants. They saw a tourist group, two couples, and a group of girlfriends.

When he woke up in the morning, an old man named Li Zhemin died peacefully in his sleep in the sleeper car. The next morning, another young boy named Zhou Quan fell down on the toilet in the bathroom in an extremely tragic death, and a certain part of the man was cut off.

Xiao Lou took a deep breath, looked at Yu Hanjiang and asked softly, "Do you remember the speed train?"

Yu Hanjiang nodded: "Well, in the two murder cases, there was a picture in the mobile phone of the deceased, called the train to hell."

Xiao Lou looked out of the window and said, "At the beginning, the bus we boarded was KP-0713, from Sun City to Moon City; today's bus is KP-0714, from Moon City to Sun City. Reverse train...I always have a bad feeling."

Yu Hanjiang walked up to him and looked out the window side by side.

It was pitch black outside, and the projections of the two of them were clearly reflected on the window. Xiao Lou's head was just at the tip of Yu Hanjiang's nose, with a perfect height difference. Xiao Lou's heart jumped slightly, and he changed the subject: "Will there be another train?" Homicide case?"

Yu Hanjiang gently stopped his shoulders, and there was a hint of tenderness in his deep voice: "Don't think too much, it's not the world of secret rooms, we also suddenly decided to take this bus to Sun City, there should be no murders. .”

Xiao Lou nodded and said, "Well, I hope we can reach the finish line this time, so let's join Mr. Tang."

*****

【Chapter 362, Unexpected Reunion】

At 7:30 the next morning, passengers in the carriage gradually woke up to wash up.

This train is the same as the one encountered in Heart 4, still has 9 carriages.

Among them, the last car No. 9 is the residence of the train staff.

Cars 1-4 are hard-seat cars, Cars 6-8 are soft-sleeper cars, and car 5 in the middle is a dining car. Xiao Lou's eight people were at the junction of carriages 3-4, and they happened to see someone coming to the dining car for breakfast.

In order to stagger the rush hour for washing in the morning, they had already washed their faces and brushed their teeth before seven o'clock while no one was there. At this time, there were people coming and going in the aisle, and it would be inconvenient for them to stay at the junction, so Xiao Lou suggested: "Why don't we go to the dining car to have breakfast, and check to see if there are any suspicious people in the car."

Everyone followed Xiao Lou to the dining car, and simply ordered some milk, soy milk, and buns for breakfast.

While eating, I saw a few young women walking in the direction of carriage No. 6.

They dressed very stylishly and chatted as they walked. The one walking in the front has big curly hair and a bright appearance. She should be the eldest sister among them. The girl next to her has a delicate and gentle appearance, wearing a light blue dress, a delicate diamond necklace around her neck, and a bracelet on her hand.

The four girls who followed behind had different appearances.

But the clothes they wear are all blue and white, with different styles and similar colors. It looks like a group of girlfriends.

Shao Qingge squinted his eyes and glanced at the jade bracelet on the girl's hand, and said: "This bracelet should be a high-quality pure natural ice jadeite, which is priceless. It seems that this woman is quite rich."

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other.

The two originally picked up a bun and were about to eat it, but after looking at each other, they put the bun down tacitly.

Xiao Lou said softly, "The one wearing the bracelet is Shu Xiaomeng?"

Yu Hanjiang nodded: "The one in the front with wine-red hair should be Liu Xiaoyan."

Xiao Loudao: "There are also Zhang Xiaoning, Wu Xiaofei, Cheng Xiaoli, and Song Xiaoyu."

Listening to their conversation, the other teammates were at a loss. Ye Qi was even more confused by the name "X Xiao X", and looked at Xiao Lou in confusion: "What are you talking about? Do you know these girls? ?"

At this moment, the group of six girlfriends sat down at a dining table not far away.

Liu Xiaoyan said bluntly, "Will Xiaomeng treat you to breakfast today?"

Shu Xiaomeng nodded: "Alright Sister Yan, you can order whatever you want."

Zhang Xiaoning, a short-haired girl next to her, joked, "Mrs. Li has a lot of money. According to me, you guys are really serious. If you want to take a bullet train, how convenient is it to fly? It only takes one day, and it takes three full days by bullet train!"

A long-haired girl beside her said weakly: "This is Sister Yan's idea. When we went to the concert, Xiaomeng couldn't go together due to health reasons. Later, something happened in the car... ... Cough, we didn't see it as well. After all, this year the goddess is going to hold a concert in the city of the sun again, and everyone will take the bullet train together, which can be regarded as a dream come true."

Shu Xiaomeng agreed: "Yes, no one will be absent this time, the six of us will take the bullet train and go slowly, as if it were a trip to relax."

listen to their conversation

, the other teammates finally reacted.

Ye Qi couldn't believe it and said: "The girlfriend group of the speed train case appeared here again?!"

Shao Qingge glanced at Shu Xiaomeng thoughtfully, and said: "The group of girlfriends Xiaoye and I met back then were not called by these names, but Cheng Xuening, Qin Xuefei and the like...these are The group of girlfriends that Professor Xiao and Team Yu met?"

The plot of the low-level secret room is similar, but there are many versions. Lao Mo also said at the time that it is like an examination paper with A, B, and C papers, which are randomly generated. Therefore, the group of girlfriends Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang met on the speed train, and Shao What the two of Ye encountered was not the same.

Perhaps what Lao Mo, Liu Qiao, and Long Qu encountered was different.

Every time they enter a secret room, that secret room is the only copy generated, and the "NPC" in the secret room also exists independently. It couldn't be Li Zhemin—Li Zhemin wouldn't die and die, twice in a row.

Xiao Lou said softly: "These six are the group of girlfriends that Team Yu and I met on Heart 4. They went to the Moon City to watch a concert, and on the way they killed the scumbag Zhou Quan together, but the murderer wasn't among them. It was Cheng Mu who got on the bus halfway. After arriving in Moon City, they were taken by the police to make a record, so it was not regarded as a concert."

Ye Qi was stunned for a moment, and his spine couldn't help but feel a slight chill: "So, after many years, they got together again to take this train to go to the city of the sun to see the concert in order to realize their dreams? It turned out that they were at different times. Meet us again?"

Xiao Lou nodded: "Well, Shu Xiaomeng is already Li Mo's wife at this time, and her girlfriends called her Mrs. Li just now. The priceless bracelet in her hand should be bought by Li Mo."

Shao Qingge's complexion changed, and he lowered his voice and said, "I remember the theme of Heart 4 is the train to hell."

The hairs on Ye Qi's back stood on end: "These girls, don't they want to make trouble again? A murder case will send people to hell?"

Yu Hanjiang didn't speak, he frowned, looking thoughtfully at the scenery passing by outside the car window.

Hearts 4 Chamber of Secrets happened when Li Mo and Shu Xiaomeng were not together. Shu Xiaomeng had a miscarriage and did not go to the concert with her girlfriends. Li Mo planned a tour group for the elderly and killed his father Li Zhemin, and two of Shu Xiaomeng's girlfriends were let down by scumbags. Seven girlfriends got together and sent away the scumbag surnamed Zhou on that train .

This is in line with what they said just now, "I didn't see it as a concert back then, this time we went to realize our dream together."

Not long ago, you met Li Mo in the Plum Blossom Chamber. At that time, Li Mo was about 35 years old, and the time flow in the main city should be the same. Therefore, Li Mo’s wife, Shu Xiaomeng, is about 32 years old now.

It can be deduced that the current time is 10 years after the "Extreme Train" secret room case occurred.

Is it just a coincidence to meet this girlfriend group again?

Shao Qingge took out his mobile phone and quickly searched the news, and quickly came to a conclusion: "Sun City does have a concert, and Luo Yan, the queen of music, will hold her debut 20 days later in the biggest gymnasium in Sun City Anniversary concert."

Xiao Lou remembered the name: "That's right, when they went to Moon City, they also went to see the concert of the goddess Luo Yan."

At the beginning, it was called watching a concert, but it was actually to solve the scumbag on the train, but it didn't work out in the end.

The girlfriends all like the queen of the music scene. In order to realize their dreams, it makes sense to form a group to go to the concert after ten years.

However, when they met again on the same train, the feeling of crossing time and space still made Xiao Lou feel messy, as if the 18-year-old girl he met a few days ago suddenly turned into a 30-year-old young woman when he met today?

After thinking about it for a while, Yu Hanjiang said to Xiao Lou in a low voice: "It's still not sure if it's a coincidence, just ask Bureau Tang."

Xiao Lou took out his mobile phone and sent Tang Ci a message: "Mr. Tang, what's the matter with the concert?"

Tang Ci replied: "Luo Yan is a female singer with strong appeal in this world. She debuted for 20 years and left countless classic songs. She only holds a concert every five years. This time it happens to be the 20th anniversary of her debut. Fans will flock to Sun City from various places, and the concert tickets are on sale, and they are sold out in less than five minutes."

It sounds normal, it's just a super popular singer holding a commemorative concert, and fans from all over the world go to Sun City to support her. But Xiao Lou was still a little uneasy: "Is this related to the hunter organization?"

Tang Ci said: "I don't know, we are still investigating. There are a lot of activities in Sun City recently. Within a week, large-scale concerts, awards ceremonies, celebrity signings, and ball games are held one after another. The hotels in the entire city are fast. It’s full, and the traffic is very congested. When you arrive, go directly to the New Century Hotel to check in, and I’ll book a room for you.”

Xiao Lou had no choice but to say, "Understood, it's time to get in touch."

He showed the phone conversation to Yu Hanjiang, shook his head and said, "Mr. Tang is not sure, maybe, this is just a star concert, are we thinking too much?"

Yu Hanjiang frowned: "I hope so."

He looked up at the dining table not far away. Shu Xiaomeng and her girlfriends were having breakfast happily. The young woman had a warm smile on her face. Extremely doted on, she left her husband and a few best friends to go out to watch the concert. It seems that the relationship between these girls is as good as ever.

Does Li Mo know about this? Is it really just a commemorative concert held in Sun City Stadium?

I'm afraid we can only know when we arrive at the scene.

Thinking of this, Yu Hanjiang said: "Mr. Shao, find a way to buy a few tickets for the concert. I want to go and see it."

Shao Qingge searched the Internet and said: "The official channels have long been sold out, so you can only buy high-priced scalper tickets... Let me see, scalper tickets are also very popular, and this goddess must have too many fans."

Ye Qi thought enviously, it would be great if he had so many fans when he held a concert in the future...

Shao Qingge said: "You can only buy 2 tickets. Three days later, the show will start at 8 pm, VIP seats, and the time is just in time."

Yu Hanjiang glanced at Xiao Lou and said, "I'll go with Xiao Lou. The others will check in at the hotel first and wait for our news."

He had a strange intuition that he reunited with his girlfriends on the same train, and this time there was an extra Shu Xiaomeng...

It must not be that simple.
