Chapter 86: Behind the Scenes
The message in the vinyl record stopped as the phonograph rotated, and the sound that made people unable to distinguish between true and false was stunned. Ye Qi, who was sitting on the only chair in the room, shook his head with a wry smile. He picked up the vinyl record he had bought aside and sighed softly.
Be careless!
Ye Qi never expected that the other party would doubt his identity because of a vinyl record. At the same time, he did not expect that the two followers who he commented as unqualified would be so "detailed" - whether it was a coincidence or really capable, Ye Qi would not cover up his mistakes; you must know that an opportunity to correct mistakes must be cherished. After all, in the dark world, a mistake is often the price of death.
"This guy is that thousand-faced monster? What a big tone!"
Jacob, who was standing in front of the phonograph, immediately said after the sound of the phonograph stopped. After being discovered by the Thousand-faced Monster, Ye Qi used the witch hunter patrolling the street to send a message to Jacob. Jacob, who had been waiting, almost entered the soundproof room of the shop just before the phonograph started playing.
"This is the attitude that the 'victor' should have, and we can only accept it at this moment!"
Hearing Jacob's dissatisfied words, Ye Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly; then raised his hand to adjust the phonograph and replayed the vinyl record; and Jacob, who was about to speak, swallowed the words back and listened intently—
"Mr. Finger, the first time I talked to you was in this way! I'm so embarrassed; but you don't have to worry. Shadow did not betray you; everything he told you was true, and I chose to cooperate with Shadow because his honesty and credit in a certain salary face are enough to make people feel relieved! Therefore, my cooperation with Shadow needs to continue..."
"Of course, your disguise is also perfect. This time I was just my luck. It can be seen that you are not good at music. Maybe you don't think a vinyl record is of great significance. But the one in your hand is sought after by many people..."
There were not many messages on the vinyl record. A few minutes later, Ye Qi and Jacob finished listening to it again. But when he learned how he was discovered last time, Ye Qi focused on other places, and a keyword appeared in this message-
His cooperation with Shadow...
Kill the boss of the shuffle?!
Ye Qi pondered, and his fingers slightly hit the armrest beside the chair - through the shadow's self-confession, the goal of the two of them was naturally the boss of the shuffle fox. The shuffle fox himself was undoubtedly; however, after the other party led him away and took away the shadow, he actually had to continue? And he told him so openly, would they kill the boss of the shuffle fox without taking pictures, and were he stalked the cicada oriole behind him?
This situation made Ye Qi feel a little puzzled - perhaps the Thousand-Faced Monster didn't have too much contact. But Shadow, a killer-born person, has his own bottom line, but he will never take risks with his own life!
This is the most intuitive feeling that Ye Qi got after a short time with the other party; perhaps a little inappropriate, but the other party is based on fear of death, whether it is vigilance or response. Such a person should be able to escape from his clutches. As for completing his entrustment, Shadow may think very much, but once the crisis reaches his life, the killer is very clear about what he should do.
And the Thousand-Faced Monster must have a complete solution to convince such a shadow.
Or, Shadow was reluctant and kidnapped by the Thousand-faced Monster?
This idea appeared in Ye Qi's heart, and then was denied by Ye Qi the next moment; the shadow was staying at this shop, and there were many customers coming and going. If you want to kidnap the shadow without knowing it, it would be possible to take action by the Sun Yao level or the Sun Yao - and at this moment, the streets of Landingburg were full of military and police and demon hunters. The military and police's abilities need to be traded, but the ability of the witch hunters is certain; perhaps they cannot detect the existence above Sun Yao, but the power of the Sun Yao level with you is definitely like an incandescent lamp at night, and it cannot escape the eyes of these witch hunters.
When arranging the search mission, Jacob specially ordered these demon hunters to pay attention to the existence of the Sun Yao level, not only the Sun Yao level, but also the Moon Hui level. However, compared to the former, the latter is not so easy to discover - and Jacob did not deliberately remind him today; so, it is obvious that Shadow left the other party voluntarily; Ye Qi was not surprised by this choice, after all, if it were him, there would probably be such a choice.
Although the Thousand-Faced Monster is dangerous, it is still in the same camp; and his side is not only dangerous, but also in the opposing camp; even with active cooperation, the best ending will be imprisoned - the Tower of Thorns at the headquarters of the Witcher, which has a great reputation.
What method does the Thousand-Faced Monster use to persuade Shadow?
In Ye Qi's mind, this question began to keep going; however, there were no too many clues - although he now knew that the existence nicknamed Thousand-faced monster could not have been pretended by his ally; after all, if it were his ally, after "playing" with him like this, he would naturally show his pride and despise him.
However, apart from this confirmation, there is not much information left, and there are still some descriptions about this person from the quail and the shadow—
"Has that dark mercenary caught?"
Ye Qi stood up and walked towards Jacob beside him. After signaling to sit down, he continued to ask - Jacob was adjusting the phonograph at this time, obviously, he planned to listen to it for the third time and find more clues from it.
"Catched, I've been temporarily locked up in your bar. Tate and the others started the raid interrogation!"
Jacob answered while adjusting the chair and putting himself closer to the phonograph. Seeing Jacob listening carefully again, Ye Qi did not disturb the other party again; instead, he walked to the other end of the room, leaned against the wall, and continued to think about his own problems.
"I see!"
Suddenly, Jacob suddenly shouted, awakening Ye Qi who was thinking; looking at Ye Qi who was looking at him in surprise, Jacob immediately explained: "I know where this guy recorded this passage!"
"What?!"
Ye Qi looked at Jacob in surprise.
"You listen to his background sound, put aside all the voices of that guy. Listen to the background sound attentively! Isn't it a little slight noise?" Jacob said so, and immediately stopped the phonograph, then pointed to the surroundings and said, "In order to ensure the quality of the sound, the place where vinyl records are recorded will definitely be carried out in such a room; and it is silent here, obviously this thousand-faced monster is not recorded here!"
"But he chose a place that was very convenient for him; therefore, these subtle noises appeared in his message - although the tone of his speech was changed every time, deliberately attracting the attention of those who heard this vinyl record, this subtle noise was not so easy to cover up!"
"It's very regular, it seems to be... a printing factory?"
After Ye Qi heard Jacob's words, he also listened quietly. After a moment, he said with a guess.
"It's not a printing factory, but a newspaper! Only newspapers that publish these vinyl records can meet this person's requirements!" Jacob corrected the mistake in Ye Qi's words. He immediately chuckled: "Among the three newspapers in Landinburg, I seem to know that one of them prints newspapers and releases vinyl records!"
"If that guy didn't transfer! I think we can give him a surprise!"
"I prefer to give the other party a shock!"
Ye Qi replied with a smile.
...
“I think it’s stupid to stay here!”
Shadow looked at the thousand-faced monster in front of him, looking through a book, and continued to emphasize his opinions - although he had to admit that the other party had "save" him once before, this does not mean that Shadow would allow the other party to push him into another abyss just because he was rescued once!
"You don't know how terrible that guy is. The shuffle guy is like a half-aged child than that guy!" Shadow looked at the thousand-faced monster who ignored him, and his voice couldn't help but rise: "Although I was suppressed in front of the shuffle, I still had the determination to fight with the other party for life and death; but in front of that guy, I didn't even dare to move, as if I was back when I was stared at by that ferocious beast!"
"We should leave immediately!"
Shadow slapped the table in front of the Thousand-Faced Monster with a strong slap, and the sound was basically roaring.
"Don't worry, I have a way to get us out safely!"
The Thousand-Faced Monster was not angry at all when facing such a seemingly rude shadow. Instead, she smiled - she was deliberately making things difficult for a person's sincere dissuasion, and the Thousand-Faced Monster could still clearly distinguish it. As for the message he left to Ye Qi before, the reason why the Thousand-Faced Monster chose to choose from the shadow in front of her was because the other party was still a person with a bottom line and kept his promises; otherwise, in the shuffle, there were several people who were stronger than the shadow, and he could fully cooperate with the other party.
Moreover, the Thousand-Faced Monster is also sure to make these people obey him; however, he has to pay attention to being counterattacked by the other party at any time - it is obvious that what he wants to do cannot make him have the extra thought to pay attention to these things; therefore, Shadow became the best candidate for cooperation.
From before to now, his choice was very correct. Since leaving the shop he liked, the other party kept persuading him. This behavior was nothing more than to remind him of his strength and terror, and to repay his "life-saving" kindness.
My kindness is not so easy to repay!
Such thoughts emerged from the heart, and the thousand-faced monster's eyes were retracted and placed on the books in front of him; but when the shadows saw all this, they shouted in a muffled voice: "Do you think you can really use such a strategy to make that guy use as a killer? Haven't you ever thought about what would happen if that guy discovered us? Do you really think that guy is just an ordinary witch hunter!"
"Of course, no! Can an ordinary witch hunter scare our shadows into this shape?" The thousand-faced monster's eyes did not leave the book. He flipped the pages and said, "But that's the matter later; we can completely find a way out then!"
"You guy is such a lunatic!"
The shadow glared at his red eyes and gasped.
"Thank you for your praise! My teacher once said that a good scholar always starts with madness!"
The Qianmeng Monster smiled slightly and said without caring. However, before his smile could calm down, his whole body froze. He almost instantly put the books in his hand and put them under his armpits. He jumped out from behind the table.
"What's wrong?!"
The performance of the Thousand-Faced Monster made Shadow ask extremely nervously.
"The one you said is chasing you! Two blocks away, one of my magic guards was impacted by powerful energy and exploded!" A serious expression that had never been before appeared on the face of the Thousand-Faced Monster. He did not hesitate at all. He said to the shadow: "Let's go, we're exposed!"
After saying that, the Thousand-Faced Monster rushed towards the window of the room and jumped out straight out; and the shadow did not hesitate, and was tightly behind it—
"This is what you call a foolproof plan?!"
After coming to the ground, he looked at the Thousand-Faced Monster. After throwing a crystal ball that seemed to be used by an astrologer on the ground, Shadow couldn't help but ask.
"Any plan will have loopholes, and the backup plan is to make up for this loophole!"
After watching the crystals of the crystal ball turn into a pool of liquid and begin to evaporate quickly, the Qianmian Monster replied this time. Then, he said straight: "Now we are moving directly towards the nest where the shuffle fox is!"
"Is this what you call a backup plan? What's the difference between your previous plan?"
Although he was asking such a question, the shadow ran away without stopping.
"My previous plan will be more detailed and perfect, and the chances of success will be more than 90%; and the reserve plan can only reach 50% at most because of the hasty!"
Qianwei said truthfully, but such words made Shadow lament in his heart. He had seen that strength and did not think that this so-called reserve plan had a success rate of 50% as Qianwei said. Thinking about that person's speed, Shadow felt more and more that his life was once again in great danger.
Unlike the last time, if he was caught this time, Shadow could not think he could escape again. After all, no matter how kindly he existed, he would not have any compassion for the escaped prisoners; not to mention, judging from the performance of that person, that person was not a kind person; perhaps because he had his own bottom line or rules, he would not kill innocent people indiscriminately, but for those who violated his own rules and touched his bottom line, that person was absolutely cruel - and it was obvious that he had touched that person's bottom line now.
"Don't worry, what I broke just now was the fog of the fairy. Even with a keen perception, it is not useful in the fog of the fairy!" Obviously seeing the shadow's worry, the Thousand-faced Monster said in a consolation tone: "This is something I spent a considerable price to get from a rebel druid. The Holy Seen at that time was also because of the fog of these fogs that they had no choice but to end the pursuit of the druid!"
"The druids at that time were in Hailin, occupying the right time, place and harmony between people. We are now in Landingburg; not only during the day, but also the opponent's home court, and the number of people is even worse than that of the other party!" After looking at the military and police and witch hunters who had noticed their two people because of the rapid running, the shadow's voice almost brought despair.
“These are all created!”
With such words, the Thousand-Faced Monster reached into his arms, took out a handful of Kimpton, and scattered it straight into the sky.
Ding, Ding, Ding...
The crisp sound, coupled with the dazzling golden light, almost instantly, everyone's attention was attracted on the slightly quaint streets of Landingburg.
"Kimpton?!"
Countless people ran towards the golden flash on the ground with such a cry; the military police and witch hunters who had noticed the shadow and the thousand-faced monster were immediately intercepted and blocked by more people. When they came to their senses, the two seemingly suspicious guys had already disappeared without a trace.
However, the matter that made them even more troublesome has just begun. Because of the ownership of Kimpton, a "duel" broke out in the crowd. It was very obvious that when a local "duel" began, it was like a domino, triggering a chain effect. Countless people were stimulated to take action - in order to pick up an extra Kimpton.
When more people who heard the news joined in, the whole scene became even more chaotic. Even the uniforms of the military and police lacked the corresponding deterrent power at this time. People who were blinded by the golden light would not pay attention to the existence that was usually full of shock, especially when they felt that "their own people" were several times more than the other party.
"Leave it to me here!"
After rushing out of the fog of the fairy, Jacob made a gesture to Ye Qi. After Ye Qi continued to chase after him, he took out his gun without hesitation and shot several shots straight into the sky.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The crowd was stagnant amid the gunfire.
Chapter completed!
