Zhang Heng wrote down the addresses of former SEALs and psychiatrists before the power went out.
Whether it is the United States or Greenland, they are quite far away from the city where he is located, and further investigation will be done after going there. It will be difficult to get any results within a week or two.
And now that school has just started, Zhang Heng has already been recorded as skipping classes. His good luck has finally run out. In order to solve the problem of [Death Dream], he was also recorded as absent from class twice, and he is temporarily unable to leave. Therefore, I can only postpone the trip to the summer vacation.
Zhang Heng came to the Sex and the City bar again at the end of the month.
The bartender lady did not make cocktails behind the bar this time. Instead, she stood outside the door of the lounge, lit a cigarette, and looked coldly at the men and women at her feet who were twisting their bodies to the melody.
Seeing Zhang Heng walking up, he said, "The matter you entrusted me with has come to an end."
"Huh?" The music was too loud, and Zhang Heng had to take two steps forward.
"I found someone who can help you repair that katana. He is the most powerful blacksmith I have ever seen. He once forged weapons for the gods. With his help, not only can your katana be restored to its original state, but he can even help You take the original and make some upgrades.”
"but?"
"But... you need to pay 2,000 game points. In addition, you have to find the lower part of the knife and bring it to him together with the upper part."
"He just helped me put the two parts together, and then he charged 2,000 points? This is not a small amount. Such a large amount of game points can already buy a C-level prop, which is quite popular. That kind of thing." Zhang Heng still remembered that the final transaction price of the popular [Escape Dagger] at the previous auction was only 2050 game points.
After a pause, he added, "Besides, you haven't told me what quality of game prop this is."
"Unfortunately, I can't authenticate it before recasting it," the bartender said.
"So this is like a gamble?" Zhang Heng frowned
This samurai sword he got from the woman in red in the last round of the game. After returning to the real world, Zhang Heng gave it to the bartender lady along with the USB flash drive and the copper ring, and commissioned She looked into the possibility of restoration, but he didn't expect the final price to be so high.
Using 2,000 points to repair a prop of unknown quality is too risky no matter how you look at it. Even a C-level prop may not be able to achieve such value, and if it is a D-level or E-level or even F-level prop, that Heng will suffer a big loss.
"Anyway, I've found the person for you. The decision is up to you." The bartender said.
"Let me think about it after I find the lower half of the broken sword." Zhang Heng said.
If nothing else goes wrong, the remaining part should still be in the hands of the woman in red. It is not easy to get it, so Zhang Heng does not need to worry about this matter for the time being.
He pushed open the door to the lounge, walked to the empty booth with ease, took out the alarm clock under the seat, set the time, and started his seventh round of the game.

When Zhang Heng saw the names of this round of dungeons, he already thought of a famous name in the detective world and thought it couldn't be such a coincidence.
And when he opened his eyes and saw the road sign in front of him, it finally further confirmed his previous suspicion.
--Baker Street.
Zhang Heng moved his eyes to the house across the road, and as expected, saw the house number 221B.
The famous 221B Baker Street is the residence of the author of "A Practical Handbook of Beekeeping with Research on the Isolation of Queen Bees". Of course, he wrote this great book after his retirement.
Zhang Heng stepped forward and walked through the muddy road mixed with horse manure. The sky in London was as gloomy as ever, and the gray mist shrouded the city like the face of a typhoid patient.
A man wearing a bowler hat drove a carriage past Zhang Heng. The mud splashed by the wheels splashed onto Zhang Heng's trouser legs, but before the latter could speak, the carriage quickly disappeared on the street. .
Zhang Heng reached out and knocked on the door.
After a while, the door opened and a middle-aged woman's face popped out. She smiled and said, "Oh, you must be the new tenant here."
"Mrs. Hudson?" Zhang Heng asked.
Mrs. Hudson is the landlady of 221B Baker Street in the original work. She also works part-time as a cook and cleaner. These expenses are included in the rent. However, she looks younger than the original work, less than forty. Year old.
"That's right, Mr. Zhang Heng, where is your luggage?" Mrs. Hudson said enthusiastically while looking behind Zhang Heng.
The latter was stunned for a moment, "Uh... I left my luggage with my friend. I'll pick it up later, but there aren't many things. Can I go and see my room first?"
"Of course." Mrs. Hudson said, "Come in quickly, this will be your home from now on. The furniture and everything are well-equipped, and the light is good. When you open the curtains, you can see the street below..." However, At this point, she hesitated to speak.
Zhang Heng asked, "What's wrong?"
"...He is your roommate. His personality may be a little weird, but I can assure you that he is a decent person. He just has some minor problems. No one is perfect," Mrs. Hudson sighed, "Anyway, you're welcome to stay."
Zhang Heng raised his eyebrows, "My roommate, where is he now?"
"He went out to attend a concert in the afternoon, but counting the time, he should be back by now." As soon as Mrs. Hudson finished speaking, there was another knock on the door.
Mrs. Hudson turned back and opened the door again. This time, standing outside the door was a hook-nosed man who was more than six feet tall, thin and with wandering eyes. He seemed to be still wandering in the ocean of music, until he noticed Hard. Zhang Heng behind Mrs. Sen.
"Oh, it seems that my roommate has arrived. Nice to meet you. I am Sherlock Holmes. You can just call me Holmes." He said as he stretched out a palm with traces of ink and reagents.
