Chapter 322 December 1st
1 Black Street.
Shi Qi, Simmons, and Charles sat opposite to Qin Ran, while Ellie Jones, Lauer and his wife stood on one side.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Ran who looked calm.
The atmosphere is slightly dignified.
Shi Qi couldn't bear it at first.
"2567, are you really not aware of the immediate crisis?"
"Or do you have other plans?"
"The outsider has already left, can you tell us?"
Shi Qi asked again and again.
"I found it, but I have no other plans."
Qin Ran did not deny the 'outsider' statement.
Compared to those who are still alive, Rosd Lanci is an outsider.
"What do you mean having no other plans?"
Shi Qi looked at Qin Ran puzzled.
"Simmons, faced with such an invitation, would you refuse?"
Kieran didn't answer directly, but asked the potion master.
"of course not!"
"Although I don't have much use now, I'm not a coward. What's more, if I don't go, the last trace of tradition will only be lost!"
Simmons said with certainty.
"Oh my God!"
"Simmons, tell me what you said is not true!"
"How can this be a tradition? This is stubbornness! Moreover, it is still stubborn to die!"
Shi Qi covered his forehead and exclaimed.
"It's a tradition, the last tradition on the mysterious side of the West Coast - not to be afraid of any East Coast invitation, dangerous or safe."
"After Lei was honored as the 'God of the Earth', it was the only tradition on the West Coast."
Simmons emphasized, but his tone was calm.
None of the people around showed surprise.
Everything seems to be as it should be.
The alchemist even nodded with a smile.
Qin Ran was no exception.
He was initially unaware of such a tradition.
But when Simmons accepted the invitation letter, the solemnity on his face gave Qin Ran some guesses.
After all, as far as he knew, the shepherd would not do useless things.
What Simmons said in front of him only confirmed his guess.
"Damn it!"
Rubbing his temples vigorously, Shi Qi frowned and asked in a low voice.
Facing the calm tone of Simmons, he knew that the other party would not intend to change his mind.
And the rest of them are just like pot pharmacists.
Shi Qi didn't intend to try to persuade him any more.
As for Qin Ran?
That eager look.
Totally looking forward to this invitation.
Although Qin Ran covered it up, Shi Qi could still tell.
"Then what are we going to do?"
In the current situation, it is no longer possible to choose not to do it, so we can only think about how to deal with it on the premise of doing it.
Shi Qi never intends to get out of it.
Don't say that he has already got an invitation letter, even if he didn't, with his temper, he will not refuse to go when he knows other people are going.
"Rest, prepare, and..."
"Waiting for the arrival of December 1st."
"And now?"
"I hope to find some delicious food. You know, I have eaten instant food and canned food for nearly two weeks. Although I can't hate the taste of food, if I can change the taste, I will be grateful!"
After speaking, Qin Ran stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
Elle Jones hesitated for a moment, then followed quickly.
"It's nice to be young!"
Simmons and Charles sighed at the same time.
The Lauer couple looked at each other and smiled, showing the tacit understanding of only husband and wife.
Only Shi Qi stood there in a daze.
"Hello? Hello?"
"Are we discussing a matter of life and death?"
"Are you really okay with this?"
Our sheriff protested loudly.
However, it does not help.
The same goes for the days that followed.
Qin Ran, Elle Jones, Simmons, Charles and Raul didn't feel any sense of urgency.
business as usual.
Shi Qi became more and more impatient.
Finally, the impatient Simmons pushed out the door.
"Aren't you looking for trouble with that black market businessman?"
"Now is the time!"
The potion master's words were still echoing in his ears, Shi Qi looked at the closed door, and shook his head slightly self-deprecating.
"Alright alright!"
"Who made me an unqualified mysterious side person?"
Shi Qi muttered to himself, and quickly left No. 1 Black Street.
Of course he could see that everyone seemed to rely on something to be able to be so calm.
But the more this happened, the more irritable he became.
because……
He didn't have a hole card he could hold.
"Damn it!"
"Is it true that I'm going to order a bazooka from that guy?"
"But even if I can own a bazooka, I have no chance of winning if I face those people head-on!"
Shi Qi was thinking as he walked towards the black market where the merchants were.
But the more Shi Qi thought about it, the less confident he became.
This made our sheriff feel powerless for a while.
But he still noticed the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him.
"who?"
Shi Qi asked vigilantly, while holding the handle of the gun with his right hand.
"I have no ill intentions!"
"I'm just a messenger."
"Please forgive me for not being able to send the client's letter directly to the 'Suicide Bird'. It is too dangerous for you."
The figure waved his hand as he spoke.
A letter with a white cover just fell into the pocket of Shi Qi's coat.
But before Shi Qi could appreciate the opponent's technique, the figure disappeared in a flash.
"A letter to 2567?"
Shi Qi picked up the letter and looked at the unsigned envelope.
He didn't know what the other party was going to do.
But he knew that he would hand over this letter to Qin Ran.
However, after only two steps, Shi Qi was stopped again.
Look at the person in front of you.
Shi Qi opened his mouth wide in surprise, with an unbelievable expression on his face.
"Long time no see, Shi Qi!"
The other party said hello.
...
Time passed day by day.
On the day of December 1st, a heavy snow fell suddenly.
From dawn to sunset.
The evening sky did not clear up.
The lead-colored, gloomy, black sky naturally presents a sense of oppression, making it hard to breathe.
Coupled with the snow on the ground, the number of pedestrians on the street decreased rapidly.
Before 6 o'clock, there were only a few scattered people left.
But even these few people were in a hurry.
They also don't want to stay in the cold wind and snow-covered streets for a long time,
jingle!
A burst of crisp bells suddenly appeared on the street.
It's like the most pleasing music, attracting people's attention.
Pedestrians watched in amazement as two carriages with four horses roared past the street.
Even the heavy snow on the ground could not slow down the two carriages.
Seeing the fast and smooth driving, the pedestrians immediately admired the driver's skillful driving.
But the sharp-eyed people found that the horses pulling the cart and the carriage itself seemed unusual.
However, they couldn't tell what was unusual.
Under the watchful eyes of the pedestrians, the carriage disappeared at the end of the street and drove into No. 1 Black Street.
Two coachmen parked the carriage in front of the iron gate.
Then they jumped out of the carriage, rang the doorbell, and stood aside with bowed heads.
After about two minutes—
Click!
The door of the distant dwelling opened.
