Beauty Comprehensive 1999

Chapter 188 Ghost?

The group of people drove to the area near Todd's home, which is in the south area of ​​Pasadena.

There is a bar here called Dragon and Knight, and the name sounds like a board game.

In fact, the boss is also a board game enthusiast, so the bar not only provides drinks and snacks, but also special running tables and private rooms.

Xie Zihao remembered that he had been here with Todd several times before, and he knew that the group running games in this world were actually more developed than the other world. Although there was no familiar DND, the mainstream ones were also fantasy adventure-style board games.

, there are dragons and braves, dungeons, fantasy versions of city-state hegemony, etc., as well as adapted games based on graphic novels. These have a larger audience because they have fans of the original works.

And Cthulhu-style group running games are also very popular among some niche enthusiasts.

However, the latter seems to be a prohibited publication in the federation. Generally, game enthusiasts who want to play it need to be as secretive as extensive reading transactions. They will definitely not dare to violate federal regulations in such public places.

Here Xie Zihao thought of what was introduced in the Extraordinary Manual of the Special Investigation Bureau. Some beings from outside the world like to use such weird and bizarre games, novels, legends and other carriers to spread their pollution. Many extraordinary events

This is not because monsters appear on their own initiative, but because ignorant people actively cause trouble out of curiosity.

After all, you can't expect some teenagers who are still in their second year of middle school to find an interesting game or novel and not try some summoning rituals, magic rituals and the like.

So it's no surprise that this weird style of game is banned.

Even Xie Zihao quite agrees, because in this world where extraordinary power exists, people's thinking can sometimes bring dangers and cause disasters, so they have to be on guard.

When a group of people arrived at the Dragon and Knight Bar, they attracted a lot of attention because of their style that was incompatible with the bar.

Most of the people in this bar are nerds and nerds. After all, most people who like this kind of role-playing games are this type. Sophia and Tracey, two women with two strong bodyguards in black suits, one is cold and noble.

, a sexy and beautiful woman who doesn’t look like the type who often comes to places like board game stores and comic shops.

On the contrary, the two men looked familiar to them, especially Todd, although he was a social bastard, but he didn't feel out of place among the nerds. He was acquainted with many people here. He kept saying hello as soon as he came in.

In comparison, Xie Zihao, who is more handsome and handsome, has been here a few times, but he is obviously more rejected by the men, because he attracts the attention of the girls every time he comes.

So these otaku groups are privately launching a boycott campaign against handsome men.

But the ladies here are different, because Xie Zihao's appearance is so outstanding, and also has an exotic style. When he came here several times in the past, the women always arranged for him to be with elf, prince, noble young master, etc.

Play characters with outstanding charm, and then interact with elves or princes to fulfill your fantasies one by one.

It turned out that I was annoyed by these women, so I rarely came here. Even if I came, it was just to drink a drink with Todd that I secretly added, after all, they were not of legal drinking age at that time.

The two of them greeted acquaintances along the way and soon found Mika sitting at the bar.

This is a young man in his early twenties with thick eyebrows and big eyes, with Southwest European and Latino features. He cannot be said to be a handsome guy, but he can also be called a handsome man. However, he looks a little haggard.

This is Mika Schneider, who was a classmate of Todd and NTU at NTU. He just graduated from the photography department and is a relatively promising young photographer. Otherwise, he would not have bought a house less than a year after graduation. Although

It's a loan.

"Mika, long time no see!"

"Long time no see Lance, how are you doing?"

"It's still the same, what about you?"

The two met briefly for a long time.

Mika Schneider smiled and shook his head with some bitterness and happiness:

"It's not good. I was already planning to live together with Shelly and paid off a loan to buy a big house in the suburbs. But since we moved into the new house, a lot of weird things have happened around us!"

Todd also stepped forward and expressed concern:

"How are you now, Mika? Are you feeling unwell? I see you are more haggard than yesterday."

Mika did not continue to complain, but explained:

"It's okay, I'm just tired from not sleeping well these past two days. My dad thought I was drinking too much. As you know, I always try to stop drinking in moderation."

Mika used to work at the Dragon and Knight Bar as a bartender and tally clerk. So he often drank secretly, and Todd's original private goods also came from him.

The relationship between the two is second only to Xie Zihao's friends on Todd's side.

Seeing this, Xie Zihao also asked:

"So have you encountered anything unusual recently?"

"Is it unusual? There are some weird or weird things, but Shelly has already planned to find someone for help, so you better not get involved."

Regarding his friend's kindness, Todd said directly:

"Who else can you ask for help? You don't know that the ancestors of Lance's family are clergy from the East. He has inherited the family business and is a very powerful exorcist. If you have any questions, just take him to your new home and take a look.

Everything is understood."

Mika asked with surprise when he heard this:

"Lance, are you really an exorcist? Why haven't I heard you say that before?"

Xie Zihao explained briefly:

"Of course, you know that we Tang people like to be modest and don't like to show off. I never thought about inheriting the family business before, but now I have opened a firm in partnership with a psychic to deal with these problems. Mika, do you have any

If there is trouble, Todd and I will certainly not sit idly by and watch!"

Mika didn't even suspect that Xie Zihao was telling lies. After all, Westerners' impressions of Dongguo people, apart from the distorted reports in the media, were that Dongguo was a relatively mysterious place. Some people still think that Dongguo people are all the same.

Two-handed witchcraft.

As for being good at Kung Fu, that is a well-known impression.

Todd said matter-of-factly:

"Yes, Mica, do you remember my neighbor, old Julio?"

Mika blurted out after hearing this:

"That old Julio who dresses very frugally all day long and only orders a glass of beer when he comes to the bar and brings his own fried beans so he can sit down and drink slowly for an hour?"

Todd nodded and said exaggeratedly:

"Is that right? I thought he was very poor at first. For the sake of my neighbors, I would occasionally treat him to a beer. Who knew that the last time his son was hospitalized in a car accident, I happened to meet Billy at the end of the street and helped take him there.

Hospital, you know? The old guy actually took out a lot of cash from the biscuit box. My God, that's at least tens of thousands of pounds, enough for him to buy another apartment instead of living in that small apartment.

…”

Regarding Old Julio, because of Todd's big mouth, Xie Zihao has a more profound impression in his memory. He was an old man from Tang Dynasty who often came to this bar to drink, or the correct name should be Lao Hu.

But as the locals do, you should always give him a name that foreigners can understand. This will make life more convenient, so Lao Hu and his family all have the surname Julio.

The Tang people's habit of saving and hiding cash is basically a common impression here in the Federation, so many petty thieves and house robbers like to target such targets.

This was not surprising to him, but what happened to Mika reminded him of the plot of a movie in his previous life, but he would not know until he went to see it in person.

I bought it, the 2022 version of Redmi
