Chapter 10, Changhong Street
Wu Xiaode followed the attendant and walked deep into the bar, entering a private room in the depths of the establishment
Wu Xiaode walked in
Changhong Street is brightly lit, bustling with crowds
The scene shifts
An identity
The bald man snorted coldly and scolded, "A bunch of little brats, only now do you know fear, not a hint of awareness at all, now get out and get to work!"
"If I choose this fat man, is there any way for me to disguise myself as him?" Wu Xiaode pointed at a bald fat man and said
He stood up, walked to the side of that wall, and said in a low voice
Brother, it's difficult to get a gun. If we had that thing, it would be a real problem, the bald man said sincerely
Wu Xiaode stood up
The bald man instructed the girls to step back, personally poured a glass of wine, and handed it to Wu Xiaode, before asking: "Brother, what would you like?"
Wu Xiaode intends to use it up
Wu Xiaode got out of the car, adjusted the clown mask on his face, and hurriedly walked along, bypassing the front of the street, before knocking on a small side door of a bar.
The bald man clicked his tongue twice and blew out a smoke ring, saying, "This platinum card hasn't been used—there must still be quite a bit of money in your account—how about spending some money? Brother will take you out for a good all-night fun today"
"The identity is innocent," said the bald man
Now, let us connect with the frontline reporter
"Mr. Joker, you seem rather unfamiliar." said the attendant in charge of reception.
"Very well, I want this person's identity," said Wu Xiaode
Wu Xiaode gazed at those figures.
Wu Xiaode walked slowly along the street and suddenly gazed at the display window of a shop
Vision
Zhang Chen is a farmer from the suburbs, with an unblemished identity, and appears utterly ordinary among the crowd, hardly attracting anyone's attention
The bald man tilted his head back and gulped down the drink in a frenzy, finishing the entire bottle of wine, and only then did his face gain a bit of color.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense
I indeed come here infrequently, " said Wu Xiaode.
The bald man spoke, extending his hand and gently tapping next to the handprint.
Because the massive sight on the sea surface gradually became clear
The thugs were completely convinced this time, each one bowing their heads as they exited the private room
Of course, because you, my brother, hold card number 3057, which makes you one of our platinum clients, you are entitled to such services—the price naturally reflects the quality of the service provided
I am soon to go to the Death Abyss
Seven days
He pointed at a slender young man
Conducting official business
The previous handprint has disappeared
Are you here for amusement, or to attend to serious matters
It was a vast complex of palaces shrouded in ice and snow
I am certain
The thugs shook their heads in confusion
Please find a remote, quiet, and uninhabited place to facilitate the posting of the commission for this book on the wish wall
The girls laughed, surrounding Wu Xiaode on both sides
His voice suddenly came to an abrupt halt
"Alright, I understand now. Thank you this time." said Wu Xiaode
Suddenly, the clown reached out and gently pressed his hand against the wall
The bald man emphasized, "Anything that happens on this day will be held against them, even murder"
Waited for a few moments
Then let's go there
The beautiful girls rose one after another and walked towards the box door
Only a line of icy small characters reappeared on the Book of the Dead
It is only a little past 8 PM, and there are not many people in the venue, with the music playing softly.
The clown withdrew his hand, remaining silent, sitting there quietly as if nothing had ever happened
The other subordinates nodded in agreement, all of them in accord.
Welcome
Absolutely reliable, these individuals are all here with me. Once you make your selection, they will disappear for a day, and you will appear on the streets in their identities
At this moment, Wu Xiaode's appearance had transformed into that of a person named Zhang Chen
The camera on the door was aimed at him
Seven days
The dignified and elegant female host appeared serious as she addressed the camera: "The methods of the perpetrator are extremely brutal. The two victims were tied to chairs and burned alive... The name of the perpetrator is Wu Xiaode, wanted for arson and murder. He is currently at large. We urge the public to remain vigilant. A special task force has already been deployed..."
"You sound like you haven't turned eighteen yet. Tsk, being able to obtain this card means you can spend the money on it freely—come, let me show you the truly prosperous side of the world, how about it?" The bald man grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellowed and decayed teeth.
Under the nightfall
Wu Xiaode took out the card and waved it casually
Wu Xiaode's gaze flickered as he looked towards the void
Wu Xiaode silently thought to himself
The bald man was about to say a few more harsh words, but suddenly stopped mid-sentence
Damn, you scared me to death
If it can ensure that Xia Huilan remains safe and sound, it will also alleviate one concern from my heart
It looks as if it is made of paper
One of the subordinates, puzzled, said: "Boss, it's just a matter of pressing a handprint on the wall. Although this skill is quite impressive, it doesn't warrant such courtesy from you."
The thugs surrounded Wu Xiaode.
This is a bar street, bustling with a mix of people and activities, with a constant flow of traffic. Every evening, the music is deafening, creating an extraordinary lively atmosphere
A bald man wearing sunglasses sits on the sofa, smoking a cigar while raising a glass towards Wu Xiaode.
Wu Xiaode grasped his hand and opened his mouth to say: "Do you have guns for sale?"
Yes, my time is very precious, seven days... is about enough
You group of oblivious girls, what are you still standing there for? Feifei, Xiaoxiao, and Lili, attend to the esteemed guests together
Changhong Street
The steel decorative panel was also pressed into the wall
"Go away, all of you, get out." The bald man waved his hand irritably at those around him
The bald man took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, murmuring softly
Are you sure you want to publish a commission
"It's quite professional, not bad, but how do we address the height issue?" Wu Xiaode said.
After he left, the bald man let out a huge sigh of relief, sat down on the sofa, grabbed a bottle of liquor, and gulped it down, murmuring softly:
You rascal
No problem, go ahead and choose
On the walls of the palace complex, stood one black skeleton after another, wielding various weapons, with dim ghostly flames flickering in their eye sockets, gazing towards the coastline
How long will it take
On the distant horizon of the sea, many massive shadows silently rise, spreading in all directions
A giant handprint, measuring over one meter in length and several meters in depth, has appeared on the wall
The door of the private room is closed
Alright, alright, I will listen to you
The bald man also stood up, laughing heartily as he extended his hand and said: "Brother, welcome to the underground world. You are truly remarkable; I can already see a new star rising.
The large screen in the display window is broadcasting the news
Boss, what kind of trick is this? Just looking at it makes my legs tremble...
He held the microphone and said: "Dear audience, I am currently standing by the coast, but the tsunami has not arrived as expected. As you can see, the sea is calm... Wait a moment, that is a mirage!"
The opportunity to publish the commission was obtained from https://www.hetushu.com upon the completion of that ancestor's spirit
The thick book with a black cover quietly opened, revealing a line of icy crystal-like small characters
Two police officers in black uniforms walked past him without casting a glance in his direction
The bald man paid no attention to the astonished shouts of his subordinates, taking a few steps back and gazing at the enormous and menacing handprint.
In the private room, a flurry of light and shadow suddenly emerged, coalescing into the images of various men, each with distinct appearances
Customer No. 3057, Platinum Card, Years of Use: Four Years, Non-nominal
The host stated: "The earthquake in the Western Ocean has just passed, yet the coastal cities have not experienced any tsunami, which is quite fortunate, but it also leaves us feeling perplexed"
The area covered by this handprint, in addition to the cement, happens to have a steel decorative panel.
A few men walked in and looked at Wu Xiaode, saying: "Guest, please come with us to complete the modeling."
... ...
The bald man casually gestured a few times in the void before him, and a soft female voice immediately resonated in the private room
On the sofa sat five or six alluringly beautiful women
The middle-aged journalist spoke incessantly: "It is truly spectacular. As everyone knows, a mirage is an optical illusion formed by the refraction of light from objects through the atmosphere..."
"Qianqian, retrieve the data," said the bald man
We have specialized martial arts experts offering a one-time bone contraction service, which can be somewhat painful, but a painless package is available to choose from, the bald man shrugged
The bald man snapped his fingers and said, "Qianqian, Category 21 services, providing holographic images for customers to choose from"
He was about to take a step when a news item on the large screen suddenly caught his attention
He turned his body slightly and pointed towards the direction of the sea
Do you know why I am the boss and you are not
The previously defiant subordinate trembled and said
Chunks of bricks and stones continuously fell, causing the entire wall, several meters high, to cave inward.
A middle-aged man was seen standing on the long pier by the coast, with a helicopter parked beside him
Wu Xiaode pondered for a moment and recalled that in this urban area, there were several zones undergoing demolition, where the houses were only partially torn down and were already uninhabited
The bald man paused for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said: "Come, come, come, good brother, it's our first meeting, come over and sit down, let's have a drink together"
Bang
The sound of rushing water
Wu Xiaode stood still in place
I said no need. "Wu Xiaode said.
Injections accelerate cellular metabolism, temporarily presenting an aging physique. There are also specialized modelers who will apply fat gel to your body, and facial modeling will certainly not pose any issues, as it can directly generate a facial mask. As for the pupils, there are specialized optical contact lenses made with 3D printing, so you can rest assured
The bald man smiled and said, "You are welcome at any time"
The door opens
A handprint, several inches deep, quietly appeared
Wu Xiaode looked at these images and asked, "Is it reliable?"
"I don't need these, I'm in a hurry, I need to buy something soon," came the voice of Wu Xiaode from behind the clown mask.
"Yes, that's the one." said Wu Xiaode.
No need for that," Wu Xiaode said calmly
Yes, the female voice began to read: "Name: Zhang Chen, a farmer from the first suburban area of the capital, has been farming at Plantation No. 51 to this day"
I suspect this expenditure is not inexpensive said Wu Xiaode
I need to purchase some items, said Wu Xiaode
The door of the private room opened
These individuals vary in height, weight, and age.
Wu Xiaode followed those few individuals out of the private room
Damn it, this is truly unbelievable, it almost scared me to death
"Please follow me," the waiter said with a smile
Several burly men, either standing or sitting, guard the entrance, their faces filled with fierce and defiant expressions
