Hidden Corner

 Chapter 273 One of the 273 candidates

At this time, Catherine was in a private room in the bar.

Several young men and women were chatting together, and little blue light spots like dust were floating and flying around them.

A few people randomly clicked on these light spots with their fingers from time to time.

This seems to be a game to see who can react faster.

  Before being hit, the blue light point will suddenly change direction and accelerate to dodge.

Whoever clicks on it first will get one of the others to drink a small glass of wine immediately.

These people were playing games, and there was a short-haired girl wearing a long striped sweater sitting in one corner.

The girl's clothes are one black and one white. The hem of her sweater can reach her knees. She is kicking forward with two short legs. She is lying on the sofa, watching the games of her friends not far away with some boredom.

“Dazhuang, why do you feel you are in a bad mood today?”

 A girl playing games quietly approached and asked in a low voice.

 “It’s okay, it’s just a bit boring.” The short-haired girl said lazily.

 “What’s not interesting?”

“It’s not interesting here, at home, or at school.” Da Zhuang waved his hand, as if he wanted to get rid of the unhappy and depressed mood in his mind.

 Although she knew that this would not help, at least she had some resistance. The depression in my heart can be relieved to some extent.

“Then let’s go out and sing. There’s a handsome new bartender, maybe he’s your type?” the friend laughed softly.

 “Does it make sense?” Da Zhuang’s expression remained unchanged.

 “It’s meaningless, but wouldn’t it be nice to feel comfortable for a while?” My friend was very free and easy.

 “I’m not interested in these.” Da Zhuang refused.

Just because she is depressed doesn't mean she is willing to indulge herself. Although she has average looks, average figure, and no beauty, she is too lazy to have plastic surgery.

So be it.

  She was ignored at home anyway, and her brothers and sisters were competing for their own dazzling achievements and success.

For a child like her who has no talent, is not liked by her family, and has no resources, nothing can be changed by her hard work.

　　It’s better to leave it in ruins.

 “You really don’t want to go? If you don’t want to go, why don’t I go?” the friend said with a smile.

 “Go ahead, go ahead, I’ll pay for it.” DaZhuang touched the glass with her and drank it down in one gulp.

 Money, her monthly quota cannot be used up at all, she can spend it as she likes. Compared with ordinary young people from small families, she is chic, relaxed, happy and contented.

 But it makes no sense.

She would rather not have so much money, she just wants freedom.

 Complete freedom.

 Drinking wine, a trace of mist filled his eyes unconsciously.

She looked through the outer wall of the soap bubble at the flow of people passing in and out, and seemed to be in a daze.

Huh! ?

 Suddenly her eyes became fixed.

'that is'

She was a little unsure and squinted her eyes. Three red focused light spots automatically appeared in her eyeballs. The high-precision camera implanted in her eyeballs began to adjust the clarity.

 She saw in front of the bar next to the bar door.

A girl with a gray hat wearing a gray trench coat and her hair dyed bright red is wearing a mask and looking around excitedly.

 This is a young child, probably one who has only been to this kind of venue a few times.

 You can find chicks in bars anytime, anywhere, but this one looks familiar to her.

 Especially those eyes.

 ‘Wait, it can’t be.’ Da Zhuang suddenly thought of something, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

The girl in the gray hat has beautiful eyes, curved, as if she is always smiling, bright and happy, with a little bit of curiosity and innocence.

 ‘Could it be Zhao Xianrou? ’ The more Da Zhuang looked at him, the more he felt like it.

 She exchanged a few words with her friend, got up and walked out of the private room, walking towards the girl.

Snapped.

On the bar table, a cup of honey and wolfberry milk was placed in front of Li Chengyi.

 “Thank you.” He replied quietly.

Here, his burly and muscular body was inconspicuous among the young people around him who wore exoskeletons as clothes.

Once covered with clothes, no one knows whether he is a real muscle or an exoskeleton.

 Having entered this bar for half an hour. He carefully observed many people, but none of them met his requirements for choosing the Holy Infant.

 So he simply sat at the door and waited.

 In this way, he can feel everyone who comes in and out at close range.

 Taking a sip of honey milk, Li Chengyi exhaled and looked at the other people around him.

On the bar stool to his left, there sat a blond young man spinning around. He had earrings, a nose ring, a chin ring, and all kinds of rings. His two eyes were changed to one red and one blue, and his lips were painted dark red. There are also two fangs exposed.

I can’t tell what he’s looking like. Maybe he’s a vampire?

Li Chengyi glanced at the blond man who was talking on his cell phone, and then turned his eyes to the other side.

To his right is a young girl wearing a gray windbreaker and a gray round hat.

 Also wearing a mask, her eyes look good.

There was a handsome man next to her, and he was actively chatting with her, obviously trying to flirt with her.

 The two of them looked very happy chatting. The girl was teased to the point where she kept letting out muffled laughter.

During the chat, the handsome man's arm naturally brushed the glass of wine in front of the girl.

 In an instant, a gap opened in the skin under his arm.

A drop of transparent liquid dripped from a device in the gap, fell into the wine, and instantly dissolved invisibly.

 The whole process takes less than half a second.

 Under the chaotic light, no one around noticed this.

 Except Li Chengyi.

 He watched the girl pick up the drink and pour it into her mouth.

Snapped.

Out of a good person with good intentions and conscience, he reached out and patted him.

 The girl was knocked to the wrong side of her arm, and the drink in her hand spilled all over the table. "Sorry, I accidentally bumped into you. I'll buy you another drink." Li Chengyi took out the tissue and handed it over in a dignified manner.

ˆ “.”

The girl blinked and looked at him.

"Are you the legendary good person?" Her voice was very nice and thin, like some kind of musical instrument singing softly.

 Even if it is a normal question, it gives people a cute feeling of being coquettish.

 “Why do you say that?” Li Chengyi asked.

 But the girl had no time to answer.

The handsome man beside her looked cold, angry that he had ruined her good deeds. He immediately came down, walked towards Li Chengyi, and reached out to grab him.

 “What do you mean? On purpose?”

The man grabbed Li Chengyi's shoulders and pulled him hard, trying to pull him off the stool.

 But not pulled

 His complexion changed slightly and he wanted to call for help.

 But when his shoulder hurt, the man's whole body was embraced by a big and generous hand.

 His whole body was pressed tightly against Li Chengyi's side, unable to move.

"you!?"

“I recorded the process of administering the medicine to you just now.” Li Chengyi said softly.

"!?" The handsome man's expression changed slightly. "What do you want?"

 “Does your family have money?”

  “?There are. Not many.”

 “Is there ten million?”

".No."

“Then you must be very popular in the surrounding area?” Li Chengyi asked again.

"I'm just average." The handsome man intuitively felt that something was wrong, and his vigilance in his eyes increased significantly.

“Let me tell you, I have a good thing here that will change your destiny, change your life, and allow you to reach the top of your life from now on.”

 “Wait, I’ll give you money! Thank you, I don’t need it, don’t contact me, bye!”

The face of the handsome man changed drastically. He immediately took out a handful of money from his trouser pocket, shrank his head, turned around and ran away like a loach.

 Only one coat was left in Li Chengyi's hand.

Li Chengyi looked confused. Don't know what happened.

 But the fear +1 fed back by the Flower of Evil truly showed that the handsome man was really scared and ran away.

The girl in the gray hat who was drugged just now was also laughing so hard.

More than that, people who were close to Li Chengyi unconsciously moved away from him.

 As if afraid of what he might do.

 “What do you mean?” Li Chengyi was a little confused.

“Good brother, they thought you were a missionary.” The girl in the gray hat laughed for a while, covering her chest with her hands and gasping for breath.

 “You know?” Li Chengyi was surprised.

“Yes, that person wanted to drug me, I saw it.” The girl nodded.

 “Then why aren’t you afraid?” Li Chengyi asked doubtfully.

"Because it's not necessary. Anyway, I just want to tease him." The girl laughed.

 “Okay. I’m just meddling in other people’s business.”

"No, I'm different. If it were someone else, he might have succeeded. You did nothing wrong, good brother. This society needs more positive energy like you." The girl in the gray hat said seriously.

 “You are a bit strange.” Li Chengyi smiled.

“Brother, is this your first time here?”

“Well, I have never been to Chaoyu before. This is my first time in this city.” Li Chengyi said frankly.

"No wonder you don't know. There are usually many people who preach the Haisha Cult here. Many of them use the excuse of preaching to find good-looking men and bring them to brainwash and violate them. It is said that when many people were rescued, they were I was brainwashed and stupid," the girl explained in a low voice.

 “Haisha Cult?” Li Chengyi was speechless. "Why do they only lie to men?"

“I don’t know, but it may have something to do with their teachings, which say that the two sexes are only for reproduction, and same-sex is true love...” The girl in the gray hat shook her head.

She felt it was very interesting. On her fourth day out, she encountered something interesting.

 This is not the first time she has been drugged. To be precise, this is the sixth time she has been drugged in a bar.

 But among so many times, this was the only time that someone stopped him. In the rest, everyone around him looked like he was watching the fun.

 The only good person is actually the big brother next to him with black hair and glasses.

 She went out to play without telling her family, just to find some excitement and a different life.

 Now, it seems that I have found it.

 “Good guy, what’s your name?” the girl asked, “My name is Zhao Xiaoli.”

 “Li Zhenchun.” Li Chengyi made up a name at random.

 “Brother Li came to Korea on a business trip?”

“I’ve never seen a big city before. I came from Circular City and came here to gain some knowledge. I don’t have any specific purpose.”

 The two of them started chatting awkwardly, exchanging words with each other.

 The two of them used pseudonyms, and there was no intention of exchanging contact information. Just passing the time lazily.

 Time passes slowly.

Li Chengyi said goodbye to Zhao Xiaoli and came out of the bar. Today was another day of nothing.

 Although several targets have been identified, they all require follow-up in-depth investigation.

 Just walked out of the bar, not far away.

 Suddenly, a small painful wail came from the alley on one side.

He had a vague impression that he had heard this voice somewhere.

 Turn around and walk into the alley.

Without walking a hundred meters, he turned a corner and saw a man lying on the ground in the dark alley with only his torso and head left.
