At this time, it was already two o'clock in the morning. Xiao Feng took a look at his friend list. The brothers Nicholas Tiezhu and Nicholas Zhaosi were both online. He was about to invite them to upgrade together. However, Xiao Feng's figure suddenly appeared here. He paused for a moment and then went offline.
In the dark night, there is no moonlight, only the dim light of the street lamp lights up the world.
Xiao Feng, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, took off his gaming helmet, and disappeared from the room in a flash. He could only see the curtains at the window suddenly swinging up.
The old apartment building is located in the old city. It lacks the rich nightlife in the new city. There is no noise of feasting and feasting, and it is very quiet at night.
However, outside the apartment building where Xiao Feng rented, there was a dark Buick business car parked on the street corner. The temperature emitting from the car indicated that the car had just stalled.
In this Buick business car, which has a large internal space, it has been modified. In the hollowed out space, a sweaty middle-aged man was playing with a computer whose screen suddenly went dark.
"Boom!"
At this moment, the window of the Buick was suddenly knocked twice. The middle-aged man in the car was so frightened by this sudden shock that he sat down on the ground and looked out the window in panic.
"who is it!"
The single-sided light-transmitting car window, under the dim street lights on the street corner, looks out into almost darkness, with no visible objects. Anyone who knocks on the car window twice in this late night will be frightened to the point of running cold down the back.
The middle-aged man put his eyes on the car window and looked out, but he couldn't see anything in the pitch black.
"Who is it! Who is there?"
He asked again with a trembling voice, but no one answered.
The streets in the old city were very quiet, and there was only a slight buzzing of insects in the middle of the night. The middle-aged people wondered whether they heard it wrong just now, or maybe it was just the malfunction sound coming from the drone camera.
He swallowed his throat and bravely opened the car door. Under the dim light of the street lights, there was no quiet shadow around him.
The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, closed the door and returned to the car, ready to continue checking the surveillance drone that suddenly malfunctioned. However, he suddenly discovered that there was an additional figure where he had just been sitting.
And he should be the only one in this car.
"Ah! Ghost!"
The middle-aged man immediately shouted in horror, and his head hit the roof of the car with a thud. However, this collision also made him sober up.
"Yes, it's you..."
But even so, the panic in his eyes did not diminish by half after he woke up, and his heart was beating wildly as he looked at the young man who suddenly appeared in the car.
"You know me. It seems that the investigation on me took more than a day or two."
The person who suddenly appeared was Xiao Feng. He was playing with a drone he had caught above the apartment and spoke with an indifferent expression.
"You...who are you..."
The middle-aged man looked at the drone in Xiao Feng's hand and became even more panicked. Cold sweat broke out on his head. He had just been controlling the drone to approach the apartment building. Unexpectedly, the drone suddenly malfunctioned, and One of his surveillance targets was actually sitting in his car at this moment.
"It seems that you don't quite understand the current situation. Next, what will I ask and what will you answer? Do you understand?"
Xiao Feng's face was expressionless, neither angry nor cold, just an ordinary calm. With a gentle squeeze, the surveillance drone in his hand turned into crumbs.
"I don't understand what you are talking about..."
The middle-aged man still wanted to quibble, but the next moment, tearing pain came from his right hand.
"ah……"
He immediately let out a miserable scream, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Xiao Feng covered him.
The unbearable pain made his whole body convulse. He raised his right hand in horror, only to find that one of his fingers had been torn off!
The bone stubble is clearly visible, and blood donations are pouring out like crazy! He almost fainted as soon as he rolled his eyes!
"I don't want to say the same thing a second time. Next, whatever I ask, you answer. Do you understand? If you answer wrong once, I will cut off one of your fingers."
But how could Xiao Feng make him faint so easily? He loosened his mouth and spoke in a calm voice. The smell of bloody rust filled the small space inside the Buick, but it did not change Xiao Feng's expression at all.
"I understand, I understand..."
The middle-aged man spoke hurriedly, quickly pulled a handkerchief and pressed it on the severed finger to stop the bleeding. The severe pain and blood loss made his face as pale as paper, but he did not dare to let out a scream and looked at the person in front of him with fear. youth.
"Who sent you?"
"I am……"
The middle-aged man only hesitated for a moment, but did not see any movement from Xiao Feng, and another severed finger flew out.
"Ah!!! I said! I said!"
The middle-aged man screamed, and now a finger was torn off on both hands. A handkerchief could not stop the blood at all, and soon the whole handkerchief looked like it had been soaked in blood.
"My patience is limited, but you may not be able to insist on going to the hospital."
The calmness and indifference in Xiao Feng's eyes made the middle-aged man shiver all over, and he no longer dared to hesitate at all.
A wound that is torn apart alive is no better than one cut by a knife. The pain and difficulty of stopping the bleeding are not at the same level.
"I was hired by the chairman of Shengxia Group! To investigate the former chairman's only daughter!" The middle-aged man turned pale and spoke hurriedly, not forgetting to add, "I'm just a private detective, please, please let me go." !”
"Shengxia Group? Didn't the former chairman commit suicide in a mysterious way? Is there a new chairman?"
Xiao Feng's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Yes, yes, the shares of Shengxia Group were inherited by his wife as the legacy of the former chairman, and then bought by the new chairman!"
The middle-aged man said hurriedly and glanced at Xiao Feng secretly. The news of the mysterious death of the former chairman of Shengxia Group was not even reported in the news. How could this person know?
At the same time, the middle-aged man felt extremely regretful. The young man in front of him was obviously someone he couldn't mess with. Why did he accept this order?
"How long have you been working for Shengxia Group?"
Xiao Feng nodded slightly and asked again.
"Shengxia Group is a regular customer of mine and often comes to me for business... for a few years..."
I didn't understand what Xiao Feng meant by asking this question, but the middle-aged man still answered honestly.
"Then do you know who is the controller behind Shengxia Group?"
Xiao Feng looked deeply at the middle-aged man, and for the first time he lost his composure, "In other words, do you know that during the Sports Cup Global Finals 5 years ago, the Shengxia Group, as the sponsor of the Chinese team, conspired to murder the people at that time? Who is the black hand of Captain Fengshen of China?"
"you……"
The middle-aged man looked at Xiao Feng in shock. The shock in his eyes was not fake, but this time Xiao Feng did not urge him.
Rather, Xiao Feng was looking forward to this answer, and even made Xiao Feng clenched his fists involuntarily.
"There is a person behind the scenes of Shengxia Group. I vaguely felt it through my professional sense of smell, but I really don't know who it is. No private detective will turn around and investigate his own sponsor..."
The middle-aged man looked at Xiao Feng cautiously, fearing that this answer would dissatisfy Xiao Feng, "But the black hand from five years ago should not exist, right? The Chinese captain Fengshen at that time was carrying the hope and heavy responsibility of the entire country, how could he be Domestic sponsors are plotting to murder...wait..."
The middle-aged man had been sizing up Xiao Feng. Until then, he was suddenly startled and looked at Xiao Feng in disbelief.
"Are you the one who has disappeared for 5 years..."
But before he finished speaking, a blood hole appeared between his eyebrows. Looking carefully, it turned out that the remains of a drone penetrated his skull.
And he kept the shocked expression he had before his death, and fell down with his eyes widened.
"Using Shengxia Group as bait, it seems that the mastermind behind the scenes has taken the bait. Let me see how big the fish caught is."
Coming out of the Buick that smelled of blood, Xiao Feng whispered to himself.
Is the new chairman this fish?
With a flick of his finger, the drone's fragments shot out silently, and the power of the camera in the old street was disconnected. Then Xiao Feng got into the driving seat of the Buick, started the Buick and left the old city.
Clean up the scene.
By the time Xiao Feng returned to the apartment building, it was already 5 o'clock in the morning. He set an alarm clock for 7 o'clock, and then continued playing the game.
The Nicholas brothers were still there, and Xiao Feng sent them a message. After knowing the location, he would team up with them to upgrade, but before that, Xiao Feng had to empty his backpack.
The backpack in the novice stage only has 20 spaces, and the contents of Xiao Feng's backpack already account for more than half. In the trial dungeon alone, there are 6 pieces of level 10 equipment. There are also props that cannot be thrown away, such as trial certificates, and The key to the seal and some low-level equipment were picked up by Xiao Feng while killing wild monsters and a group of people from the Doomsday Alliance. They were all green equipment of the lowest quality, and Xiao Feng did not pick them up.
It is definitely unrealistic to go out for leveling with a backpack of equipment, not to mention bringing several bags of potions for the Nicholas brothers, so Xiao Feng decided to get rid of the backpack first and headed towards the square of Novice Village.
"Collect all kinds of furs, 10 copper coins each, boss in large quantities!"
"Please buy Bai Linghua! 1 silver coin per piece! Only 10 pieces, first come, first served!"
"Come and take a look! A green quality level 5 one-handed sword! Excellent attributes! Only 10 gold coins! Or exchange it for a staff of the same quality!"
"Can this level 6 longbow be cheaper? The price of 20 silver coins for the whiteboard is too expensive. Trade it immediately for 15 silver coins!"
"The War Soul Hall Guild will collect game currency at a ratio of 1 to 4. No matter how much it is, friends are welcome to come and sell it."
…
The Novice Village Square should be the place with the most players at this stage. Because it is a wide area and a safe area, it is directly regarded as a trading area by many players. At a glance, countless players are setting up stalls and browsing in front of the major stalls. There is also an endless stream of players and bargaining players, and there is a lot of noise from all kinds of hawking.
Xiao Feng also passed by some stalls selling equipment and took a look, but the levels were very low. The highest level equipment was only level 6, and the quality was mostly whiteboard. Occasionally, there was a green equipment, but it was either astronomically expensive or replaced with other items of the same quality. Professional equipment.
This puts Xiao Feng in a difficult position. The highest player level at this stage is level 8. The level 10 equipment in his backpack cannot be valued at all because players cannot use it now. However, Xiao Feng would feel a loss if he sells it at a low price. After all, the lowest level is It's green.
