Chapter 2568 Assassination Tradition
The security in District 001 is very good. You don’t have to worry about safety issues when you go out at night. However, most residents are very particular about health, so when it gets dark, there are fewer people on the streets. Most of those who are still hanging around the streets and shops are from
Tourists come from other places, but there are fewer shops open at night, so the flow of people is concentrated in a few more prosperous places in the city.
By the time Xu Huo and the others arrived near the Yongxing Hotel, the hustle and bustle was far away from them. There was not even a single person doing anything wrong on the quiet street.
After checking in, Xu Huo and Hua Nu went to the suite upstairs. There was no one outside, but there were a lot of players in the hotel. It seemed like there was some kind of party. There were many players sitting in the lounge next to the hotel lobby.
When they went upstairs, two people also came out of the lounge, discussing the matter of visiting the watchmaker as they walked.
It sounds like they want to buy props from the watch master, but because there are very few reception places for the other party, and there is a long-term resident of Yongxing Hotel who has the connections, they are here to wait for that person, but the distance is the agreed distance.
Two hours have passed and many players have lost their patience.
The master watchmaker is also a very famous maker.
This made Xu Huo think about the origin of "Three Seconds of Life". The pocket watch, which was made by the skilled craftsman Master Nisei, after some changes, naturally became a prop, and it was also a super prop.
Naturally produced props can be obtained in newly opened dungeons, but the more players enter the dungeon, the lower the possibility of picking up the props. After a while, there will be no ready-made props in the dungeon.
The natural formation of props also seems to depend on a bit of luck.
However, many naturally evolved props are also related to craftsmen. Many of them are the work of painstaking efforts. I don’t know if this is some kind of strange change caused by the pinnacle of human achievement, but the watch master in Area 001 sounds like he is also a top-notch person.
Craftsman, otherwise there would not be so many players looking for ways to meet him.
After entering the room, the painting girl ran to the terrace first, took a photo of the sky, and invited Xu Huo to look at the stars.
The starry sky in area 001 is slightly different from that in area 014. The stars are not randomly distributed in the night sky, but concentrated in a certain area. There is no moon here, but there is a planet similar to the moon, which looks larger and brighter.
, and it is surrounded by a field of luminous stars arranged from large to small, spontaneously forming several rings, which is particularly eye-catching.
In other places in the night sky, there are a few clusters of similar stars, and the rest is a dark blue night sky, stretching as far as the eye can see.
The painting girl pointed to the nearest and largest planet, "There are people on it."
It is not difficult to develop some uninhabited planets in many partitions in the current game, but they are mostly used for mining resources. After all, it will cost a lot to move there. If you really can’t live in one partition, grab other ready-made small ones.
Partitioning is also more convenient.
"Go to bed early." Xu Huo said to her, and then went into his room to wash up. After washing up, he first sent the set of bookmarks to Xiao Yuan and Tan Qi through the dimension, and then looked at the clock making for a while.
After reading the book, I lay down to rest.
The nights in District 001 were relatively long, and he slept very comfortably. He woke up naturally before dawn. After getting up energetically, he looked at the empty streets and washed up.
At this time, most people in the area have not yet come out for activities. Only some people doing morning work are walking around the streets. The floor-to-ceiling windows of the bathroom face a commercial area. At seven o'clock in the morning, a man wearing a suit with "Deliver quickly" printed on it
The man in literary clothes rode a low-altitude aircraft to the opposite side. He stopped in front of a beauty shop, rang the doorbell, and after chatting with the people in the shop, the automatic door of the shop opened.
"Send it to me quickly" picked up a bag and walked in. After a while, he only heard two dull sounds of falling to the ground. "Send it to me quickly" came out of the automatic door again. When the other person raised his head, it happened to meet the one who lowered his head.
Xu Huo met his gaze.
The floor of Yongxing Hotel is not low, but unfortunately the player's eyesight is too good. Xu Huo took out the toothbrush from his mouth, said "hurry up", pulled up the mask, and waved to him.
In this district, at least there are no poor people in this city, and the residents are self-disciplined and have closed their shops early. In such an environment, few people regard shops as their homes, so before they open, there are no people inside the shops in the commercial street.
The man and woman who were killed were a special case.
After the sky fully opened, the robot in the shop called the police. Law enforcement teams and people from the hospital came. They only took a glance and gave the cause of death of the two people. They killed them with one blow and cut their throats.
As for why he was killed, the murderer also left a clue, a bed photo with the words "adulterer and adulteress" written on it.
The nearby merchants looked at the novelty for a while, and after learning about the photo of the "adulterer and adulteress", they all showed expressions that it was indeed the case.
People around here probably knew what happened to the two people who were killed. Instead of panicking, they thought that this would happen sooner or later.
When Xu Huo took the painting girl out to eat special breakfast, he also heard players from other areas discussing this matter.
"Buying a murderer to kill is an old tradition in Area 001." A player knew a lot about it. He pointed to some projection advertisements that occasionally appeared in the corners outside and said, "Those shops are opened by players. They pay to kill people. What do you think?"
Whoever you want to kill, contact the people from the killing company in advance. After submitting the information, if the company thinks it is feasible, it will take the order."
"For example, in the murder case this morning, it turns out that the man's wife paid for the murder, but there is no evidence. Legally speaking, not only will his wife be fine, but she will also inherit all the property."
"As for that man, it is morally untenable. The law cannot punish him, but lynching can."
"Doesn't this mean that we can kill whoever we want?" Someone said after hearing this: "Isn't Area 001 in chaos?"
"You don't know the history of Area 001," said the previous player: "It is said that our ancestors made their fortune by doing chivalry, robbing the rich and giving to the poor. Most countries in the entire area have assassination organizations. If nothing happens, you and I will kill each other.
Go, it’s a shame that no one was a player at that time, otherwise I don’t know how many people would have died!”
This emotion made everyone laugh. The painting girl turned around long ago, holding up the communication device and asked impatiently: "Is the assassination organization still there?"
"Of course there are, aren't those companies?" The man said: "On the surface, they are people doing small businesses. They have business licenses, pay taxes legally, and are protected by the government. Behind the scenes, you all know."
