Chapter 891 Shadow on the Pier

Xu Cheng left without looking back.

On the streets, law enforcement drones quickly rose, demanding Xu Cheng pay the credits for living in the urban area.

"Quack!" Xu Cheng glared at it. Both her and Paopao's credit points were only in single digits, which was not enough to live in a safe and beautiful garden center. They had to leave immediately.

"Low-quality personnel detected, please leave as soon as possible." The drone lifted the small electric shock cannon and aimed it at Xu Cheng.

Low quality? Low quality! I don’t want to stay here anyway! Xu Cheng ran out angrily. She vaguely heard Qianshu chanting Xu Cheng’s name behind her. She didn’t care. Qianshu, Qianshu, you are her biological child.

, enjoy it!

Xu Cheng walked away, and Paopao hurriedly ran to keep up with Xu Cheng.

They entered the garden center on a shuttle, but were kicked out all the way due to insufficient credit points. There were sirens everywhere, asking people to stay away from the low-quality Xu Cheng and Bubbles.

Citizens keep their eyes on the roads along the way and strictly control the number of turns they make in accordance with the law.

Xu Cheng walked through them and wondered which of these citizens were real and which had been replaced.

Jialongpo used secret means to replace people in society to minimize panic. The most advanced synthetic human technology was used here, and he also cleverly gave synthetic humans some automatic programs that were illegal and morally corrupt to facilitate them.

Play characters with flaws and perform negative actions probabilistically.

Xu Cheng felt that most of the city was filled with robots, playing the roles of law-abiding citizens, public servants, actors, singers, businessmen and white-collar workers. They were designed to have extremely high consumption needs and spent most of their earned wages on purchasing goods to make up for the loss.

business cycle.

She realized that the others were all acting masters who accompanied and performed. Just like the NPCs in the game, they were all scripts. They acted to entertain the Kojima family, decorate Qianshu and their colorful lives, and satisfy their vanity.

heart and sense of superiority.

Every day and everything that happens in the city is for them to watch like a drama. Xu Cheng realizes that she is just a grain of sand in Jialongpo and just one of the actors, making jokes for Xiaodao Yezi. She has to leave.

, otherwise it will fall sooner or later.

She walked through the streets of Jialongpo and came to the door of the telescreen panting.

Law enforcers turned on the telescreen, urged them to leave, and put a negative number on their credit records.

Next time he ventures into the city center he will be arrested, and maybe he will be replaced by a robot. Xu Cheng turned around and saw that Paopao was weak and was following him painfully across the street.

"Wait for me -" Bubble's voice was soft and weak.

Xu Cheng stretched out his hand and pulled Bubbles out of the urban boundary.

Behind them, law enforcement officers re-energized the high-voltage power grid to prevent people from entering or exiting without authorization.

Bubbles were held in Xu Cheng's arms, looking at the sizzling electric wall behind them in horror. They gasped for air, sweat dripping from their bodies.

The high wall separates the inside and outside, the beautiful and bright streets, the bustling business district and the high-rise buildings are all gone, leaving only the dirty Jialongpo Port to keep her company.

Sisters Lianhua and Shahua stood on the old gray street. When they saw them coming out, they waved to them. Lianhua's eyes almost glowed with bloodthirsty: "Good baby!" She raised her hands and ran towards Xu Cheng.

"Hey! No money!" Xu Cheng slapped Lianhua's hand away, still angry.

Lianhua realized that she was small but very powerful, so she couldn't help but step aside.

"What's wrong with her?" Lianhua looked at Xu Cheng's back.

"Hey..." Paopao said sadly, "...if you are patient, follow her with me, otherwise just wait for another day or two."

Xu Cheng lost her will. She clasped her hands behind her head and wandered on the embankment of Jialongpo Port with her mind empty.

She walked until dusk, when the port area became silent, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and an ominous and cracked moon rose into the sky.

Xu Cheng was very surprised when she heard the footsteps of Paopao and the others following her. They would actually tolerate her willfulness?

"Huh?" She turned her head.

After following Xu Cheng's back for 4 hours, Paopao was so tired that his lips were pale and his hands and feet were weak, but he still showed a smile.

"I'm still here!" Paopao said weakly.

Xu Cheng's mind began to fill with energy again. She turned around and leaned on the wooden railing. At her feet was an artificial coast where garbage was piled up. The fog had begun to approach, and colorful stars were emanating from it.

Her heart was heavy, her calves were heavy and sore, mist wrapped around her ankles, and the sound of leaves echoed in Xu Cheng's mind.

"Quack." Xu Cheng didn't know why Ye Zi was so harsh.

Paopao patted Xu Cheng's shoulder with his thin little hand: "Don't listen to her. Let's go our own way and leave Jialongpo far away."

Bubble's words made Xu Cheng feel a little relieved, like gently stroking Xu Cheng's soul.

"Where are you?" Xu Cheng turned around and saw sisters Lianhua and Shahua following him.

"The commission of 100 million bonuses is right in front of us. We can't give up at this time. We can't, we can't..." Lianhua's tongue almost fell out when she spoke, and the fake gems and broken jewelry on her body jingled. She needed to really

Money to buy real jewelry.

"Fu...fu..." Shahua just followed his sister desperately, having no other thoughts.

Xu Cheng saw a huge silhouette appearing in the mist. It was approaching like a ghost and approached the trestle stretching into the sea.

At this time, some people had gathered on the bridge. It stretched out its tentacle-like black tongue and rolled up one of them, then swallowed it into the mist and disappeared.

The others were waiting numbly for their turn, with no intention of fighting the mist!

"Quaa?" Xu Cheng pointed to the trestle stretching toward the sea.

"That - that's a cheap device." Lianhua glanced at it, "Since the fog approached Jialongpo, people would come to the trestle every day. The monster is a meat-tipped prophet who will give them a simple and cheap way to end it.

pain."

The Meat Willow Prophet is like a pale figure with dark eyes and weird long hair. Tentacles with eyeballs extend from the back, as if scanning and examining the hearts of intelligent beings.

Many people on the trestle have disappeared. They are all waiting silently for their turn. Some people can't bear the huge pressure and cry because they don't want to return to Jialongpo. Some people want to leave Jialongpo forever.

.

Xu Cheng opened his mouth, looking dazed, and walked over without saying a word.

She stepped onto the cement bricks, climbed onto the trestle, and walked towards the black fog.

Bubble let out an almost choked cry, lowered his head and followed Xu Cheng.

Xu Cheng breathed in a daze and moved forward stiffly. Bubble cried beside her and repeatedly said "I will accompany you", "I will accompany you"...

Lianhua and Shahua stood at the starting point of the trestle.

"We, won't we stop?" Shahua looked at everything in front of him tremblingly.

"It's human nature." Lianhua put his hands in his pockets, "It's just that the money he got is going to fly away."

The tactile eyeball of the Meat Willow Prophet observed Xu Cheng, it let out a strange scream, penetrated the fog, and then grabbed Xu Cheng.

boom!

A ball of golden energy hit the Meat Willow Prophet, melting its appearance quite a bit.

It retreated into the mist, and its body quickly recovered in the starry mist, but it was more cautious.

A swift figure crossed Lianhua and Shahua, lifted Xu Cheng and Paopao away from the trestle, and pulled them back to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the figure quickly and steadily shot at the Meat Willow Prophet in the fog, firing continuously with a semi-automatic rifle in his hand until it was completely driven away.

Xu Cheng turned around to look, and what came out of the blue was a robot woman!

Her synthetic skin is pale and flawless, her eyes are big, and she wears a beautiful hairstyle in a Jifa style, that is to say, she has long hair at the back, her bangs are at the height of her eyebrows, and the hair hanging down in front of her ears on both sides reaches her chin, which is quite beautiful.

.

"Netherworld Qiao, entrusted by Miss Qianshu, came to protect you." The robot girl said meticulously.

Paopao hugged Xu Cheng tightly and rested his head on Xu Cheng's shoulder.

Xu Cheng patted Paopao on the shoulder blankly, not having recovered from what just happened.

She didn't know why she walked onto the trestle. She might have been taken advantage of by the prophet. The monsters in the restricted area were full of dangers. She should have been prepared and stayed away from the fog.

Xu Cheng calmed down and looked at Ming Gongqiao again. He saw that she was wearing a gun-gray combat uniform, made of strong and lightweight fabrics. There was a black triangle carved on her cheek, and below it was the robot identification number two uniformly stipulated by Jialongpo.

QR code can reveal part of the file.

"Come with me." Ming Gong Qiao turned around and said, "Miss Qianshu wants to see you."

"Porphyrin." Xu Cheng hates Ye Zi, and also hates Qian Shu and her entire family.

"Miss Qianshu said that there is something you can't refuse - news about your father." Ming Gongqiao said coldly.

News about Xu Yang.

Xu Cheng raised his head and glanced at the dark and distorted sky, took a deep breath, and decided to follow Ming Gongqiao.
