Chapter 157 Secret Meeting
When I approached the secret base, I saw a figure sitting upright on a high-backed chair, holding a bunch of inexplicable parts in his hands, and was assembling them seriously.
He was not surprised when he noticed my footsteps, nor did he raise his head, nor was there a trace of hesitation in his voice.
"I knew you would come."
He stood up from the chair, and the dim light of the fluorescent mushrooms in the room illuminated the room, dyeing his outline into a halo of half-light and half-darkness, and his whole person was about to melt into the space.
"Boss, you came too late."
But then, his words revealed his identity, that is...
...Who is this pig head?!!!
Through the dim light, I saw that although the man in front of me was young, he had an overly unrestrained face. Not to mention his face was swollen, and there were only slits left for his eyes. The whole person looked like a humanoid pig head.
It was like being kicked by a deadly scholar more than thirty times until he was completely disfigured. He was beaten so hard that he didn't even recognize his mother.
"I'm Gray! Gray!"
He looked at me dissatisfied. Because his face was deformed and his speech was slurred, he expressed his dissatisfaction with a swollen face.
"Green, your disguise method won't work. Others won't be able to recognize you, but you can't see the road either, right?"
I patted his shoulder sincerely.
The pig-headed Gray sat down bitterly and muttered: "Grandpa didn't beat me, but he hit me in the face. If I hadn't run fast and hid in the secret base, I would still be getting beaten now."
"
I glanced at him and said, "Can you be as miserable as me? I went to jail for real. Didn't you just turn into a pig head? What I lost was my freedom!"
"...Boss, I don't know why, your words sound very hateful. And can you stop laughing while talking?"
I couldn't hold back my joy, and I patted the table for a while before recovering, and threw him a bottle of ointment.
"Use sparingly. This is a wound medicine developed by Doctor Dote. Just apply it on the skin and the wound will be healed in half an hour."
When Gray heard this, he smeared all the evil in this world with it as if he had found a treasure. The black ointment was applied to his face, and his swollen purple-black face became much more pleasing to the eye, leaving only a black face.
If he didn't speak, I wouldn't be able to find him in the dark cave.
"Gray, I've been locked up in the police station and I don't know. How is the situation in the town now?" I asked the topic that I was most concerned about, and I was most afraid of hearing about the gossip in the town. If such a problem arises, it will explain the situation.
Out of control.
Gray sat on the chair and said seriously: "It's not good. There is nothing wrong with the people in the town, but Dr. Dot, who has been in contact with Gotz more, has lost his memory. I went to the hospital to visit Gotz, and Dr. Dot insisted that Gotz was
It rolled down the mountain, and Gotz has left the hospital and I don’t know where he went,”
"Gots is awake?" I asked in shock. After suffering such a serious injury, Gots was able to regain his mobility in only one day? Such a speed of self-healing is too amazing?
Gray shook his head: "I'm not sure. Because Harris also disappeared at the same time. It's also possible that Harris took Gotz away and hid somewhere in the town."
"Have you ever been to Goetz's house?"
Gray nodded: "I went to Goetz's house as soon as possible, but it remained uninhabited, and the tables and chairs were covered with a layer of dust. I guess the problem can no longer be solved from him.
.”
I punched the table in frustration.
This was a mistake on my part. I originally thought that as long as I watched Goetz in the hospital, Harris would never disappear without a trace. He would have to continue to play the role of the police chief so that everything could be arranged reasonably.
Unexpectedly, Harris would take Goetz away, and both men would disappear at the same time. In that case, their trajectory would be elusive.
What’s even more embarrassing is that Dr. Dot is also suspected of having his memory wiped. So there is one less person who is close to the truth and can stand with us. In the eyes of the people in the town, Gray and I are just thieves.
No one will believe our identification of thieves who cut down trees and steal grandpa's collection.
"How is your grandpa?"
I asked Gray. As his grandfather, if he was angry, should he believe his description? After all, he came to the police station to tell about his encounter with the monster, so he would not care at all?
Gray lowered his head, his eyes full of disappointment: "After hearing what I said, grandpa gave me a severe beating and told me not to mention it and not to go up this mountain again. I guess he knew
What..."
"That's it..."
I probably guessed that Sebala, like Boss Dart, was vaguely aware of some of the problems, but he didn't delve into them, so he just succeeded and ignored them. It wasn't until Gray and I got involved that we reluctantly revealed some information.
I looked at Gray solemnly and said.
"This matter may be more complicated than we thought. It is no longer the story of Harris and Goetz, but a magma that has spread for decades, throughout the entire history of the town, and hidden under the ground of Ore Town.
undercurrent."
"If we intervene rashly, we may get into some irreversible problems. You have to think carefully. You can leave now."
The strange thing is that Gray did not get angry as I imagined, nor did he show dissatisfaction because of my slighting. Instead, he entered the same calm state as me and asked.
"Then boss, why are you involved in this matter?"
me?
I stood up, looked at this dark cave, and organized my words. There were thousands of words I wanted to express, but in the end there was only one sentence that came to my lips.
"I have realized it a long time ago."
At that moment, the darkness in my heart exploded infinitely, absorbing all the light and gravity, almost collapsing into a black hole in my heart, swallowing up all my emotions.
I didn't feel anything strange about me, but if I take a careful look at the attribute panel of the colonist system, I will find that the "god of death" characteristic is shining like a black light, almost breaking out of the panel and existing independently in the real world.
.
"The moment I came to Ore Town, I already had an awakening. This was my last chance to enjoy leisure time, and it was also my first step towards a free future. My wasted years in Glittering City made me understand
There is a truth.”
"What's the point?" Gray asked appropriately.
I said firmly.
"No matter what stands in the way of my goal, I will crush it. No matter what evil intentions, disasters, weirdness, or conspiracies, I will crush them all!"
"This town is my country. If anyone wants to take this place away, then come and do it. I will eliminate all threats from macro to micro, whether it is the army or the country!"
