A voice came leisurely to Angel's ears. When he heard the sound, he looked up and saw a gangster wearing sunglasses and exuding a runny air running towards him in a hurry with small steps.
This person was the young man in the flowered shirt who had sold his place in the queue to Angel. He smiled and waved cheerfully, and walked quickly to Angel's side.
When the distance between the two was only one body, he slowly put away the smile on his face, and then lowered his voice and said in Angel's ear: "Sir, why did you come out with the packaging box so blatantly?
Why didn't you ask the security team to send it directly to your home before..." At this point, his voice lowered again, "There are many pairs of eyes staring at the model you exchanged, so you have to be careful.
ah."
After he finished speaking, he looked around cautiously, "Uncle Leili asked me to come and pick you up..."
As he spoke, he gently tapped his chin toward the distance.
Angel looked in the direction he was pointing and saw the previous vendor waving to him vigorously from behind the crowd.
Angel didn't originally intend to trouble them, but... Angel noticed that Com was actually standing next to the vendor, and he and the vendor seemed to be whispering something.
Angel originally planned to go find Com, so he nodded decisively without any hesitation: "Let's go."
Angel followed him and walked outside.
As they walked along, there were mutants around them who kept looking at Angel... and the sealing box he was carrying.
Their eyes were filled with greed and covetousness.
Even though the staff at the prize redemption office had already said that what Angel redeemed was a model of the Green Giant, but... it was still worth a lot of money.
Coupled with the fact that Angel was carrying a large packaging box, only a few people noticed him at first. But as they moved around, more and more people looked over.
Seeing this, the young man in the flower shirt sighed.
Then, he put away his helplessness, showed an extremely arrogant and domineering expression, kept making weird faces at the mutants around him, and even made some indecent gestures.
This seemingly rogue move actually caused the surrounding mutants to retreat.
Some mutants thought for a moment and even turned around and left.
Angel naturally understood that the young man in the flowered shirt used this method to help him avoid disaster.
It's just that Angel didn't expect that this gangster who looked like a gangster had quite a great reputation among mutants.
Most of these mutants, who clearly had evil intentions towards the model, retreated under his silent threats.
The only two or three people left, compared to the naked greed in their eyes before, are now much more restrained.
Soon, they arrived at the merchant.
"Uncle Rayleigh!" After bringing Angel, the young man in the flowered shirt greeted him and continued to maintain his "fighting posture", looking back and forth at the people around him.
Angel looked at the vendor. Angel didn't know his name before, but now he knew that his name was Rayleigh.
When he saw Angel, Rayleigh immediately came up to him.
First there was a burst of congratulations and greetings, and then Lei Li whispered: "Why did you exchange the model of the Green Giant? It's hard to sell this thing? Oh, forget it, if you really like it, you'd better keep it. Yes.
Yes, let me introduce you to someone."
Under Angel's gaze, Reilly pointed to Come next to him, "This is a model collector, his name is Come."
Com also took off his hat and smiled at Angel at the right time.
"Comm is very interested in the Green Giant model that Mr. just redeemed and wants to see it."
When Reilly said this, he deliberately approached Angel and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Com came to see me just now..."
Following Reilly's narration, Angel also roughly understood the situation.
Comb probably saw Angel and Rayleigh standing together before, so he thought of contacting him through Rayleigh.
As for the reason...it's naturally for the Green Giant model.
And why did Reilly agree to Comb's request?
Because Comb said this: "I just want to see the Green Giant model. If possible, he is willing to pay two hundred modern coins for it."
In Reilly's opinion, Comb was just here to take a look, not to take anything by force.
In addition, Come's reputation was pretty good in the Eighth Town, so Reilly agreed to help.
"You just need to lend it to him and he will give you two hundred modern coins." Reilly: "This transaction is definitely not a loss."
Angel knew very well what Comb was thinking, so he knew very well that Comb was not "looking" at the Green Lantern Giant, he wanted to check whether there were legend pages inside the model.
Combs had a good idea. He didn't have to spend money to buy the Green Light Giant to determine whether there was anything in the model...
Angel clicked his tongue twice in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.
Seeing that Reilly had finished speaking, Comb also came over: "Sir, he chose the Green Giant model. There is no doubt that he is a real collector."
"Although I also like the Green Giant model very much, facing a collector like my husband, I will never do anything to win love..."
"So, I just wanted to borrow it for a look."
"Sir, please rest assured that the entire process will be witnessed by you. There will be no damage to the model."
Comb said it sincerely, and his expression was full of sincerity.
Angel laughed heartily, but he still showed surprise on his face: "I didn't expect to meet a friend here."
"Since we are friends, I am naturally willing to share it with Mr. Comb. But..."
Angel looked around and looked confused.
"This model is quite big. It doesn't seem appropriate to be here in broad daylight."
Com immediately said: "You can go to my house!"
As he finished speaking, Comb suddenly thought that he had several Green Giant models at home. If he really took Angel to his home, his lie would be exposed.
He quickly added: "Ahem, but my home is a bit far from here. How about we find a refreshment shop nearby? I'll treat you to a cup of tea by the way."
Angel didn't speak, but Reilly next to him said: "There are many exquisite refreshment shops on the surface. But here, there is only one, and it is still far away from here."
Speaking of this, Rayleigh suddenly pointed in the direction of the wishing tree: "The warehouse where I sell my goods is over there. If you don't mind the clutter, you can go to my warehouse."
Reilly paused and winked at Angel: "There is a back door to the warehouse. When you open it, you will find the nearby Red Alley. Sir, you can leave from there and no one will find out."
Rayleigh also secretly pointed at several mutants nearby.
Although they no longer stared directly at Angel under the intimidation of the young man in the flowered shirt, their hidden eyes still drifted towards him from time to time.
Obviously, they still haven't given up.
Angel: "I don't care, it just depends on whether Mr. Comb is willing?"
"Of course." Of course, Kang wouldn't refuse. As long as Angel didn't go to his house, he could go anywhere.
After reaching an agreement, Rayleigh took Angel and Comb and walked towards the wishing tree.
As they left, several mutants around them immediately followed.
However, before they could catch up, they were stopped by the young man in the flowered shirt. He was not the only one, but there were several similarly arrogant gangsters around him.
These people were the same gangsters who appeared at the gate when Angel came to the Eighth Town.
If there was only the young man in the flowered shirt, the mutants around him might not take him seriously.
But now that a group of people are coming, the mutants finally gave up tracking.
…
On the other side, Rayleigh took them to the back of the wishing tree.
Behind the wishing tree is the wall of the cave. At first glance, there is nothing there, it is a dead end.
However, Rayleigh touched something in a familiar way, and the originally gray and lifeless cave wall suddenly turned into a narrow door.
As the door was gently pushed open, a dark and deep passage appeared in front of them.
This passage snaked downwards, and after walking a few steps, they entered an underground corridor full of holographic light and shadow.
This promenade is not quiet, there are a lot of people staying here. There are even many people setting up stalls here, it seems like a... long and narrow street hidden underground?
Angel looked at it from God's perspective. This corridor was very long, with many forks and exits. There was even an exit that led directly to the Wandering House headquarters.
The cave wall behind the wishing tree is also one of the exits.
Perhaps seeing that Angel and Com were both here for the first time, Reilly introduced: "This is Tomb Street."
"Tomb Street?" Comb frowned: "This name sounds very unlucky."
Lei Li smiled: "Because this place was originally a tomb."
Comb: "???"
Lei Li smiled and didn't show off, and explained the situation here in detail in a few words.
Tomb Street was originally a large underground tomb that was renovated...but there were no bones in this tomb.
This large tomb was built by a previous new king on the earth. It was originally intended to be a resting place for himself a hundred years later. But later, the owner of the tomb left the modern city with the Lucky King and never came back.
And the tomb fell into disuse.
Later, the Eighth Town was opened up and the Wandering House headquarters moved here. It was discovered that the underground tomb passage was extremely wide and there was a lot of space, so it was requisitioned and turned into a warehouse.
As time went by, the original warehouse was slowly transformed into Tomb Street, and more people moved in, giving it what it is today.
It is said to be a "tomb" street, but in fact there is nothing dull about it.
Because the tomb passage is narrow, there are many people setting up stalls, and there are many people living here. They rub shoulders while walking, which makes this place full of fireworks and popularity.
Reilly rented a warehouse on Tomb Street to store the goods he usually used to set up a stall. And this warehouse was not far from them.
Just around the corner a hundred meters away.
After a difficult and crowded journey, they finally entered the warehouse.
As soon as the door is closed, not only does the air immediately become fresher, but the noisy and noisy sounds outside disappear instantly.
"This is my warehouse." Rayleigh came to the side and pressed a hole in the metal wall. The dark warehouse was immediately illuminated by a ceiling light.
The warehouse is not big, but there are a lot of boxes piled up, classified into categories, containing the goods used by Leili to set up the stall. Most of the boxes are covered with plastic sheets, and only the boxes marked "Prayer" have been opened.
Angel saw a lot of things for blessing in the box, including the transport props he bought before, magic incense candles, lucky coins, red ropes... everything.
Looking at the goods inside, Angel could figure it out: Haman brought him to the Eighth Town, and the young gangster learned that he was going to the wishing tree to pray, so he went to find Rayleigh, who immediately arranged the goods for blessing.
Then set up a stall in front of the wishing tree...
Completely one-stop service.
Reilly: "I don't have a stool here, so you can sit directly in the cargo box. Don't worry, the box is solid enough and there will definitely be no chance of it falling over."
After a pause: "Even if I overturn it, I won't blackmail you."
Kang smiled dryly and said nothing.
Angel said: "It doesn't matter, I brought my own stool."
Reilly and Com were startled, and both turned to look at Angel.
Seeing this, they were all stunned for two seconds. Angel conjured a chair out of nowhere and sat on it.
Not only the chairs, but also the tables were transformed.
At the same time, opposite the table, which happened to be opposite Angel, there were two more chairs, which seemed to be waiting for the two of them to take a seat.
Rayleigh was about to ask how this chair appeared? However, the next second, his eyes became confused and he sat down unconsciously.
Like Raleigh, Comb's eyes flashed with confusion, and a large number of nightmare nodes poured into his eyebrows from the outside world.
Soon, he also sat down.
There is no doubt that they have been controlled by the nightmare.
…
"Introduce yourself." Angel looked at Comb.
Although Angel already knew something about Com through NPC information, he still had to ask questions in order to trigger the side mission.
Comb's personal experience is similar to the NPC information. However, he also added a lot of information that is not included in the NPC information.
For example, Com actually has a legal status, and he even has his own villa on the surface.
But he was afraid that he would meet his former colleagues from the Wanzhao Group and that the secret of "the legendary book pages had been stolen by him" would be exposed, so he has been living in an underground neighborhood.
Also, he also told in detail how he obtained the legendary book pages.
In the NPC information, the process of obtaining the legendary page was condensed into one sentence: "By chance, he obtained the legendary page."
But the real situation is actually quite confusing.
Originally, the owner of the legendary book page - "Prologue: Spectrum" was a high-level magician of the Wanzhao Group. Because this prologue did not match his magic book, he planned to take out the page and exchange it for his own
The desired prologue.
But the chance of the prologue appearing is very small. The magician has had the prologue for many years but has not successfully exchanged it. For safety, he can only lock it in the company's cabinet.
Then...Wanzhao Group was stolen.
A thief stole this prologue and was not caught.
A week passed and there was still no news from the thief.
Everyone thought that this legendary page had been completely lost, even Com guessed the same. However, not long after, he found the stolen page in a bud in the small garden.
I guess the thief hid it here...
As for why he wasn't taken away, Comb didn't know.
But since he saw it, he secretly took the page out.
This is the story behind the model hidden inside...
