Hidden Corners

Li Chengyi listened carefully, and at the same time took out his mobile phone to search for relevant qualifications, methods, and channels.

"Yiguo produces two types of special flying instruments, and three standard flying instruments for sea, land and air. Of course, you can only buy them after you have obtained qualifications from the Brainwave Calculation Center. I don't know exactly how to buy them. Maybe you can ask the boss," Song Ran replied.

"The boss is still busy investigating the matter of Ai Xi's real estate, go back and ask him." Li Chengyi saw that there was nothing to be squeezed out here, so he continued to return to the previous rhythm of fighting training.

What Song Ran taught was a popular fighting technique called Cross Orbital Fighting. The main point is that the body is stable and moves continuously in a cross-shaped trajectory to achieve the purpose of avoiding gunmen in a small range.

While dodging, it can quickly approach the shooter and fight in close quarters.

After some training, it was getting late, and it was almost six o'clock in the afternoon.

Li Chengyi asked Song Ran to eat at a nearby spicy hot pot, but they couldn't make an appointment, so he went downstairs by himself, planning to find a rice noodle shop in the New Century Building for food.

Soon, he found a Wuxi rice noodle shop in a row of facades beside the building.

In the deserted rice noodle shop, only two of the dozen or so tables were occupied.

Li Chengyi went in and sat down at a corner table, scanning codes with his mobile phone to order.

He glanced at the dining entrance at the deepest part of the store, and through the dining entrance, he could see the chef inside chatting with someone on his mobile phone, with an ambiguous smile on his face.

Li Chengyi was somewhat confused.

He just came to this world, this era, and before he had time to feel the life of ordinary people here, he was dragged into a desperate struggle by a dead end.

Sitting in his seat and ordering his food, he turned his face and looked at the reflection of the silver tiles on one side of the wall.

The tiles are like mirrors, clean and new, reflecting his face at this time.

It was a young man in his twenties who looked tired, exhausted, and somewhat decadent.

The figure wrapped in a black T-shirt looks a bit strong, healthier than most people.

The short black hair, which is slightly longer than the crew cut, also looks capable and streamlined.

'At least the spirit is much better than before. '

He thought so, comforting himself.

Inexplicably, he began to think about his previous life. In his previous life, he would often go out for supper alone at night.

Sometimes a person sits alone in a restaurant, and if he has nothing else to do, he can sit until the restaurant closes.

Maybe it's because the training is too tiring, or maybe it's because the nerves have been tense all this time, Li Chengyi was thinking about it, unconsciously lost in thought.

Time passed little by little.

He was still sitting on his seat, waiting for the rice noodles he ordered to be delivered.

'Why haven't you come after so long? ’ Vaguely he felt that time seemed to be a long time.

But there was still no movement from the food outlet behind him.

Li Chengyi frowned and turned his head. His back was facing the food collection port, so he could only see the situation there when he turned his head.

Just looking back.

He looked serious.

The restaurant was empty.

There was no one around the tables and chairs with white faces and black feet.

There were two tables of people just now, and now I don't know when they left.

The white eating opening is also empty inside, only an uncovered cauldron is seen, which contains a lot of soup for cooking rice noodles.

The spoon hangs over the side of the pot, but the cook is nowhere to be seen.

Li Chengyi felt something was wrong, slowly pushed away the chair and stood up.

He looks around.

In this small rice noodle shop with a dozen tables and chairs, there was an indescribably eerie quietness.

The rotating fan hanging on the wall is still turning, and the small white light on the ceiling is still clear and bright.

The menu board above the dining port was still lit with white light.

Li Chengyi walked to the dining opening, and looked in from the small semicircular opening.

Inside is the back kitchen, which is also empty and there is no one there.

Cutting boards and knives are randomly placed on the table, as if someone was using them last second.

A bucket of dark vegetable oil with the lid still unscrewed.

The range hood full of oily fumes is still on with its own lighting.

"Is anyone there?" Li Chengyi called softly.

No one answered.

His eyes became serious.

Withdrawing his head from the food intake, he turned around.

A pale face, facing his face, stood behind him!

"!!?"

Like a conditioned reflex, Li Chengyi took a few steps back, bent over, and drew his gun.

click.

The trigger was almost pulled, but there was nothing in sight.

The pale face just now seemed to disappear all of a sudden, as if it was just an illusion he saw by mistake.

Hoo. Hoo.

Li Chengyi's heart was beating rapidly, and his face was slightly congested and flushed.

‘Shouldn’t I still be in the corner of the Grius parking lot? How wrong! '

Suddenly he reacted.

Before that, he almost entered the mysterious corner of the university.

‘That is to say, if you enter a blind spot, you won’t enter another blind spot again’

Li Chengyi suddenly realized.

This is the detailed information that Syndra did not give him.

"No, it may be that they didn't find out at all. Syndra is just a private company, and it's normal to have incomplete information. If it's official, maybe"

Li Chengyi walked towards the gate of the restaurant vigilantly, while holding a gun, ready to strike at any time.

Fortunately, the pale face never appeared again.

Until he walked to the gate, the surroundings were still quiet.

call.

Li Chengyi exhaled lightly, stretched out his hand to hold the glass doorknob, and pushed it out.

squeak.

The hinges made a small noise and were pushed open.

Li Chengyi took a step forward.

In an instant, his eyes blurred, and his mind was spinning, as if he had completely lost his balance.

In a blink of an eye, he was already standing outside the rice noodle shop, surrounded by streets full of people coming and going.

On the side is the colorful neon signboard of the New Century Building.

"It's out!" Li Chengyi was sure.

‘It seems that it was just a false alarm before, and it should only be a temporary omen. '

Occasionally, people will have a temporary omen in the dead corner, but this omen does not mean that you will definitely enter.

This is also mentioned in the company's information.

Li Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief and looked back. The rice noodle shop from before was still there, and the people inside were still the same as the two tables just now.

It seemed that the empty rice noodle shop he had just seen was just a hallucination.

'But it seems to be coming soon. The omens are beginning to appear, which means that I may enter soon, and I must be prepared. '

With awe in his heart, he walked towards the hotel where he was staying.

Slap.

Take the second step.

There was a flash in front of his eyes, and the feeling of dizziness surged up again in an instant.

Wait until his vision is clear and his mind stabilizes.

There was already a dim white light in front of him.

On the black ground, rows of fuzzy white parking lines extended to the front.

'Grius.'

Li Chengyi was stiff all over, and quickly reacted, looking to both sides.

Boom.

On the side wall, the small red maintenance door slammed open.

A huge black and white human face rushed out with a bang, like a giant beast, it flew towards him with its mouth open.

'Flower scale clothes! ’ Li Chengyi’s heart was shocked, and his whole body was covered with purple and black flower scale clothes.

Countless wisteria petals were like spots of light, converging on his body, condensing into a ferocious armor, and at the same time, there were strands of fine black smoke mixed in.

In an instant, the human face rushed close.

Li Chengyi only had time to raise his hand and punch him.

boom! ! !

One person and one monster collided head-on.

Li Chengyi's body was knocked into the air, hit the wall hard, and rolled to the ground.

He only felt a sharp pain all over his body, and his arms and shoulders seemed to be numb. My right hand seemed to be gone, completely useless.

The monster with a black and white human face opposite, that is, the monster with a big face, was floating up from the other wall in a daze at this time, flying towards him again.

"Damn it!" Li Chengyi slapped the wall hard with his right hand, and the second stage of flower language ability was activated.

Just before the collision, he activated the flower language ability, the hand of intoxication.

The purpose of slapping the wall now is to forcibly control the big-faced monster, delay time, and test the escape method.

Sure enough, after Li Chengyi pressed his hand against the wall, the big-faced monster immediately changed its target and slammed into the wall he had photographed.

Boom.

It slammed into the wall hard, and stuck to the wall without moving.

Li Chengyi took the opportunity to get up and run away.

Wearing the flower scale clothes, his ability to use flower language will also be enhanced. So he wasn't worried that the Man-faced monster would break free from its restraints soon.

Taking advantage of this state, he ran at full speed and rushed towards the upward curve.

He hastily observed just now that this floor is the lowest floor of the Grius parking lot, and the higher floor is likely to be where there is a gap.

The location of the cracks is not regular, and Li Chengyi can only keep searching.

Soon, after rushing through the corner and going up to the first floor, Li Chengyi's mood stabilized a little after he couldn't see the scary figure of the big-faced monster, and his eyes kept scanning the sides.

No!

He didn't dare to stop, and rushed to a higher level at full speed.

Still no!

Then the third floor, still nothing!

Fourth, fifth, sixth!

No no no no! ! There are no gaps.

Li Chengyi began to feel anxious, Hualinyi still had a lot of physical exertion on him, and he couldn't find any more...

Until you reach the seventh floor.

found it!

A black gap clearly appeared on the right wall, behind a load-bearing column, it was blocked by shadows.

He was overjoyed and hurried over.

Boom! !

A burst of force slammed into his side, sending Li Chengyi flying.

The big-faced monster reappeared at some point, opened its mouth, and rushed towards him.

This bite missed, and Li Chengyi rolled to avoid it.

The big-faced monster turned around again, speeding towards him like a car.

But it stopped immediately after flying a few meters, and stuck down to the ground without moving.

It's the flower language ability again!

Li Chengyi turned over from the ground, without any hesitation, rushed towards the crack.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw another monster with a big face flying out of the corner and rushing towards this side.

‘Damn it actually has two ends! ! ’ He was impatient, and hurriedly squeezed sideways into the crack.

But the flower scale coat is too hard and too wide, it can't get in at all, and it gets stuck outside the gap.

Seeing the second big-faced monster approaching gradually, Li Chengyi's heart was ruthless, and he controlled his thoughts to disperse the scale clothes, and rushed sideways into the crack.

‘Live or die, just look at this! '

His body went inward along the gap until he was five or six meters deep. He stopped and followed the previous plan.

'What did Jagill do? '

'Close your eyes! '

Li Chengyi resisted the urge to look at the big-faced monster and closed his eyes.
