Jingle bell bell~

The vintage copper bell hanging on the door beam swayed from side to side when the store door was pushed open, and the sound of the bell could still be clearly heard in the store despite the sound of wind and snow.

A middle-aged man wearing a long white trench coat draped over his shoulders, with long hair that was only reserved for "nobles" in the old days, and a hint of slutty green hair, entered the door with two men dressed in similar styles.

The parts needed for various types of mechanical dolls are neatly placed on the shelves in the hall. The limbs are divided into left and right, with one column for each length, and one column for the facial features. The torso occupies a separate shelf and is hung with iron hooks. Both men and women have.

In addition to these parts, there is an open space on the right side of the store, which is like a finished product display area. There are several exquisitely shaped dolls. There are pink floor lamps around the heels, which are darker than the lighting in other areas of the store. , this is considered a bright spot.

It's just that they are all in a dormant state, so they stand in a specific posture.

There is no doubt that this is a doll store.

"You watch the wind, only I can speak, do you understand?"

The middle-aged nobleman adjusted the position of the pistol on his waist to ensure that the manager of the store could see it later. If he was lucky, he might be able to make a fortune without having to draw his gun.

"Okay, big brother!"

"No problem, big brother!"

The two young men, whose hands were shaking due to nervousness and whose faces were pale, leaned together and responded with a trembling voice.

"gentlemen."

"who!"

The sudden sound startled the three of them. They turned around hurriedly and saw a female robot doll for reception standing on one side of the shelf.

"I am a waiter in the store. I am honored to serve the three of you. What do you need?"

Folding his hands on his waist and abdomen, the doll bowed and asked.

Her body looked particularly pale against the incandescent lights in the store, and some meshing parts and interlaced lines could be vaguely seen in the gaps between the joints of her limbs. It was obvious that this was just a low-level service doll, and judging from the wear and tear on her shell , the second-hand price on the black market can only be about 2,000 federal coins.

"Where's your boss?"

He held up his clothes to hide the handle of the gun at his waist, and asked in a muffled voice.

"The store manager is not in the store today. I am acting as my agent. Is there anything you need?"

Keeping his original movements, he turned his gaze to the middle-aged nobleman, completely unaware of the repetition of his words.

The repeater seems to be more than just a part of human nature.

"Impossible, there's no reason to let a low-level guy like you check the store. Your store manager must be inside."

The middle-aged nobleman stepped forward and reached out to grab the neck of the mechanical doll to continue questioning. Unexpectedly, as soon as he raised his hand, his wrist was caught by the other party.

The lights in the room dimmed suddenly, and the action of the mechanical doll froze in place. Only its palms were still tightly grasping the middle-aged wrist.

"Hey, what the hell, a piece of trash dares to start a fight with a human being."

In the darkness, the middle-aged nobleman turned his arms reluctantly, touched the handle of the gun at his waist with his right hand, turned to look at the two younger brothers behind him and shouted,

"What are you waiting for? Go find the store manager quickly!"

Just as the two boys were drawing their guns and preparing to approach the inside of the store, a few light beams suddenly lit up in the open space where the dolls were placed, and as expected, attracted the attention of the three of them.

A male mechanical puppet looked up in the aperture, twisted his neck slightly stiffly, and his eyes stayed on the three of them: "Please stop this meaningless temptation, there is indeed a cooperative relationship between us, but this is not you The reason for testing in this way is that it is 23:21 at night and I can only give you 39 minutes."

Bang! Bang!

Two gunshots were fired.

Gray smoke rose from the muzzle of the gun, and among the splashing sparks, two blood flowers bloomed.

The body overturned, and red and white goo flowed all over the ground under the broken head.

two

"How did you find it? I think this disguise is pretty good. These two people are supporting actors who spent a lot of time in the area."

Effortlessly, he took his hand out of the palm of the mechanical doll, pressed his index finger somewhere between the neck, and the skin above the neck expanded as if it were inflated. He then turned it upside down, grabbed the lower jaw, and lifted it up. When he put it down again, his hand There is an extra human skin mask.

"The next time you disguise yourself, I suggest you go for facial modification. It might be more effective. Elaine, thank you."

The doll had already stood up, walked to the middle-aged man, turned to the waiter next to him and said.

"It is an honor to serve you, Mr. Connor."

The stagnant machine resumed operation, bypassed the two people, fetched the cleaning equipment in the store, and began to create dirt on the ground.

"Facial modification is not allowed. I am very satisfied with my body. If a great being chooses me, then I will no longer belong to me. Any private modification is blasphemy and an unforgivable betrayal."

Her short and medium brown hair hung down to her shoulders. She took out a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and put them on the bridge of her nose. She looked at the doll in front of her and continued,

"Mr. Connor, don't you think this kind of conversation is very insincere? I came here in person, but you used a robot as a microphone to prevaricate. Could it be that your organization doesn't even have the most basic trust in us?"

"No, Mr. Benjamin, for us, this is enough sincerity. I have appeared in front of you. Its thinking and all actions come from my own will, so it is me."

"Is this the philosophy of top hackers like you?"

Benjamin smiled naturally, but there was no warmth in the expression on his face.

"You can think so."

Connor's voice paused for a moment and then said,

"There are still 37 minutes and 26 seconds left. Time is precious, Mr. Benjamin."

His expression froze, and Benjamin's originally somewhat wandering eyes suddenly focused on the eyes of the mechanical doll. Behind him, the obscure darkness was so thick that it was difficult to dissolve it!

"Mr. Connor should still remember the basis of our cooperation. The plan is about to begin, and we want to know the extent of your preparations."

After a long time, Benjamin took the initiative to speak. This was also one of the main purposes of his coming here today.

There is no doubt about the power of the Ouroboros organization, but what they are about to face is a super city. Regardless of other things, the Heavenly Intelligence Brain of Thousand Sails City is undoubtedly a great obstacle to the implementation of their plan. It works in certain specific environments. Even they must face up to the existence of the great existence before it arrives.

Shujie, who has a group of top hackers, can be said to be a trump card in their hand against Heaven.

The attempts of the bottom community are enough to prove that this mysterious organization has a power that cannot be ignored on the Internet. In the next plan, the performance of Shujie will be a key part.

"Any plan that attempts to destroy the brain in heaven through violence is a meaningless and stupid conjecture. The goal we need to focus on is by no means destruction, but temporary closure. And Xiacheng District is different from the lower-class communities. We want to achieve this There is only one target method, Fire pattern, which is the fire pattern of Heaven Intelligent Brain. Regarding the meaning of this special pattern, please allow me to temporarily conceal it. This time you seek a meeting, it seems to me that you want to do more than just ask about our The progress is more about showing us your strength to ensure that we will not back down."

Since it is cooperation, it is naturally impossible to agree on anything with a few words. Compared with empty promises, showing strength is the best way to maintain stability. Connor has already guessed the meaning of this step of the Ouroboros organization. With the help of mechanical coldness voice, then said,

"If you can't meet the requirements, then no matter what we prepare, it will be meaningless, so please start performing and we will wait and see!"

"You are very smart."

Benjamin looked at Connor, and his words of praise were simple yet meaningful.

He raised his hand and took out a metal ball from his right pocket and threw it in front of him.

Before it landed, the bottom of the metal ball activated the floating device and floated between Connor and Benjamin. Immediately, the middle section cracked, revealing a soybean-sized lens. Lines of light extended from it, eventually forming a ray of light. Light curtain.

There is falling snow on it, a central empty building and a sign representing the airship docking station.

There will be an update later.

I would like to recommend a friend's new book "The City God Arrives", which takes the path of spiritual energy recovery. If you are interested, you can read it.
