Chapter 10 Yellow Card(1/2)

The rain outside the rain shelter kept falling from the dome in the sky, and the ground seemed to be covered with a layer of mirror smoothness. As the raindrops fell, ripples appeared layer by layer on the mirror surface.

At this time, the noise in the rain shelter had lasted for more than three minutes. The collision of hard objects and the painful groans also stopped immediately. Old Henry, who was dressed in some messy clothes, dragged his bruised hands to Xia Xiu.

In front of him, he bowed deeply to him.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Holmes."

"You're welcome."

The blond young man replied with a warm smile. At the same time, he looked at Hughes Robin, who was no longer a human being. He was still breathing heavily.

Looking at the dying Hughes Robin, he decided to use his helpful spirit.

"Mr. Henry, can you come with me to the opposite corner for a while?" Xia Xiu pointed to another far away rain shelter in the opposite corner and said to old Henry.

"he······"

Old Henry looked at the dying Hughes with a very troubled expression. Even if he went to jail for murder, he would never let Hughes Robin go. Now he was just wondering whether his actions would implicate...

The respectable detective in front of me.

"Mr. Henry, please come with me first. The show is about to begin."

Seeing the sincere expression on the blond young man's face, old Henry could only follow him towards the rain shelter far away on the opposite side. While walking with him, he once again confirmed that the other person was not an ordinary person.

It was obvious that the two of them were walking in the rain, but the rain could not soak the two of them. It was as if they were surrounded by an invisible barrier.

Soon, old Henry and Xia Xiu arrived at the opposite side.

After arriving at the rain shelter, Xia Xiu calculated the time and found that it was almost time.

Xia Xiu smiled at the somewhat absent-minded old Henry:

"It's time for the good show to begin. You can look back at the rain shelter opposite."

"What·······"

Old Henry looked back at the rain shelter where Hughes Robin was with a blank look on his face. In the dark rain curtain, a bright light suddenly appeared, followed by a rapid friction sound, and a rampaging dump truck lost control.

Like rushing out of the rain curtain.

bump--

There was a loud noise, and the out-of-control dump truck crashed into the rain shelter. Then the entire rain shelter suddenly collapsed, and Hughes Robin's whole body was directly turned into a pulp by the dump truck.

"Ouch——"

A large hunting dog with white fur and red eyes floated over from the direction of the dump truck like smoke.

Jiam quickly arrived in front of Xia Xiu, and then looked at his boss with a flattering expression.

"Well, your driving skills are pretty good." Xia Xiu rubbed Jiam's dog head with satisfaction.

That's right, the dump truck just now was driven by Jiamu. He followed his boss's instructions and "smoothed" one over from the construction site where the dump truck was parked in the distance. Although it was his first time driving, he

It drove pretty well.

Don't ask why a dog can drive a car. You already have three heads, so what's the point of driving a car?

At this time, old Henry was looking in shock at Hughes Roger who was killed by a dump truck in front of him. Facing this sudden scene, his brain had not turned around for a while.

"Destiny..."

The blond young man's sigh sounded in Old Henry's ears, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at him.

"Mr. Henry, it's time to settle the reward."

Looking at the blond young man with a warm smile on his face, Old Henry took a deep breath and said to him with determination:

"Even if you want my soul, I will give it to you without hesitation!"

Xia Xiu was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to understand something. He shook his head at Old Henry and smiled:

"I'm not a devil, why do I want your soul?"

Xia Xiu had already felt the disturbance of EVE particles at this time. He turned his attention to old Henry's watch that was stained with the blood of the enemy. The watch was turning into an abnormal object.

"Then what do you want?"

Old Henry looked at the blond young man with a puzzled tone, and then he saw the other person pointing at the watch he was holding in his right hand.

"I want the watch in your hand."

"Are you sure..."

Old Henry raised his right hand with some uncertainty. This watch was just a cheap watch with rough manufacturing. At this time, the mirror of the watch was already stained with the blood of the enemy.

"I just need the watch in your hand."

"If this is what you want..."

Old Henry glanced at the blond young man with complicated eyes, then he held the watch in both hands, bent down and handed the watch to the other person with a bow.

Xia Xiu took the watch, smiled at old Henry and said:

"I have completed your commission and received the reward. By the way, you'd better not tell anyone about this matter, otherwise it may cause unnecessary trouble."

Listening to the instructions of the blond young man, the bent old Henry subconsciously straightened his back and wanted to say something more to the other party.

"Mr. Holmes..."

Unfortunately, when old Henry looked up again, there was no one in front of him.

········

Inside a hotel near Stockholm.

Xia Xiu played with the cheap watch in his hand. He could feel that the watch had completely turned into an abnormal object, and this was the ticket that the [Crimson King] had given him.

"Everything is empty, everything is the same, everything is the past."

Xia Xiu slowly recited these words, and as he finished speaking, the pocket watch in his hand began to gradually rust and decay. Reddish-brown rust soon covered the entire watch, and then became stained with rust.

The watch began to disappear, and a yellow card appeared in his hand.

"Whoever can climb the highest mountain has the right to laugh at all the sad games and bleak solemnity."

A line of text flashed across the card, and then new words appeared on the card again.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! [Welcome to join "Ensemble Performance"!]

[The jester in yellow clothes lies high on the throne of thorns; he looks down and gently plucks the puppet strings; the unintentional beings also follow the chaotic music; they dance the blind dance steps together, obsessed for a long time; in the blood and fire

They are sinking, killing and laughing crazily; the noose is getting tighter and tighter, suffocating in ignorance!]

[Current camp: Not selected]

[Remaining number of betrayals: 1 (only allowed to be used once per performance)]

[Defection]: After the camp is selected, you can use [Defection] to reselect the camp. After [Defection], the reward will be further reduced by one-half. (Loyalty and betrayal are enduring narrative themes!)

Looking at the yellow card representing [Jester in Yellow] in his hand, a deep luster flashed in the blond young man's eyes. He could feel that this yellow card had been bound to him, and he could now keep the yellow card in his own possession.

inside the body.

"Conduct a deductive query."

Xia Xiu spoke to Huang Card, and after he finished speaking, Huang Card immediately projected a holographic projection interface.

[First performance: "Dragon Slayer"]

[Second performance: "Alice's Game"]

[The third performance: unannounced]

[The fourth performance: unannounced]

[The fifth performance: "The Fall of Icarus"]

[The sixth performance: unannounced]

Sure enough, the performances other than the first, second and fifth performances have not yet been announced.

Xia Xiu was not surprised by this result. The order of the "Encore Performance" was that the first and fifth performances were held at the same time, then the second and third performances.

For the unannounced performance, [Crimson King] felt that it was not time yet, so he stopped the performance.

Xia Xiu began to think about the information about the deduction in his mind.

"Dragon Slayer" ended too quickly in his previous life, and he didn't know the specific details, but Mr. Ye didn't get the [Holy Sword of Barumuk] this time, so the opponent shouldn't be able to find the destined Dragon Slayer through the holy sword, and Wu

There is a high probability that the smog incident will not happen in the city, so the white card is safe now.

There were some traces of "Alice's Game" that could be found earlier. The six rabbits representing [Mr. White Rabbit Module] had been found missing in the Deer Park earlier. They may have been stolen by Seven Alice.

One of them, Agur, has been recalled, which also means that the Alices are gradually waking up.

Xia Xiu does know what the next three unannounced performances will be, especially the third performance. He has made a lot of preparations for the third performance earlier.

The third performance will be a big gamble for Xia Xiu. If he wins the bet, then the [Great Deeds] he needs for Stage Four [Crown] will be gathered in advance, and [Great Deeds] are [Deeds]

Terra's most famous [Great Deeds] and [Deeds Spread] are [The Twelve Trials of Hercules]. The powers represented by this [Deeds Spread] are [Twelve Resurrections from the Dead] and [Twelve Arms]
