Mysterious Hunting Ground

Chapter 110 110. Unlimited events, buy a gun
After Dean's parents disappeared.

Paque called the police, conducted extensive investigations in private, and even hired private investigators.

It's a pity that information was extremely underdeveloped in that era. The only clue he found was that his sister and brother-in-law had entered Hawkins Town.

As for whether he disappeared in the town, or disappeared during a certain journey east after leaving the town, there is no conclusion.

Paque's investigation has continued intermittently until now, and there has been no progress.

……

After listening to these words, a prompt flashed before Dean's eyes——

You trigger a new event - Bloodline

From Paqui, you learned about the past of the parents who disappeared eight years ago and where they were last before they disappeared.

With so few clues and so little hope, if you want to investigate, you can only follow the footsteps they left years ago, all the way forward.

This is destined to be an extremely long and difficult investigation with a huge span.

Event Difficulty: Unknown (key information lacking)

Progress (0/100)

Duration: unlimited

Rewards: Accumulate gradually
Penalty: None…

You can choose to accept or reject the event.

……

It was the first time that Dean had received such an uncertain event. Judging by the description, it would be difficult to achieve results in months or even years, but the rewards must be extremely rich.

In addition, after the last upgrade, he obtained an additional event slot. After accepting this long-term event, he also has a spare slot left to receive the event.

"Accept." Dean said silently.

0/2 becomes 1/2 in the event field.

"This is the route they traveled in the first place," Paque handed over a map of the United States marked eastward from Las Vegas, "You can try to find it later when you have time."

"Hmm." Dean thought that he could drive around the route after graduation in a few months.

"Okay, everyone, it's getting late, go and rest."

……

One night passed, the next morning.

Dean awoke from meditation and descended the creaking old stairs to the hall.

Paque, wearing an apron, put the well-arranged breakfast on the dining table, and sat opposite Dean, manipulating small knives and forks with calloused hands, cutting fried eggs and bacon, quite funny like a big bear playing with embroidery needles feel,

"I used to ignore you too much. From today until I move back to Hawkins Town, I will prepare a nutritious and delicious breakfast for you every day..."

"Nutritious and delicious? Are you using me as your culinary experiment?" Dean glanced at the black and yellow unidentified object on the plate, his face full of question marks, but when he took a bite, he found that the taste was okay.

His face softened, and he began to look at the tattered vest that was covered with putty on the big man.

"I'll go to the shopping mall with me later, buy a few sets of suits and casual clothes, and return to my hometown in the most perfect state to meet my old classmates. By then, you may be able to rekindle a few old loves with your first love."

"What's wrong with my body?" Paque put his fists on both sides of the dinner plate and said proudly, "This is the most natural and real state, and there is no need to dress up like a gentle scum."

"No woman likes a man who is sloppy and doesn't like cleanliness." Dean glanced at his gray ponytail, "You still have to get a haircut, your hair hasn't been washed in a month, right? It's getting lice, oh , no, I've seen lice jumping in it."

Paque's face darkened,
"It's getting worse and worse. You used to be so in awe of uncle, but now you keep making fun of me."

"I'm young, but I know how to take care of myself better than you. I have more girlfriends than you, and I have more experience than you. Listen to me and you're right!"

After breakfast, Dean took Paqui to the commercial street for a haircut and bought a blue suit.

After the makeover, this vicious, slovenly middle-aged man finally had some masculine charm.

With a tall and straight figure of 1.9 meters, the muscles under the suit are high and bulging. Although the skin is rough and the face is full of flesh, it looks fierce, but it is very masculine and masculine.

"That's right, now you have finally never been liked by a woman, and you have upgraded to have a little relationship with the opposite sex!"

The big man stared at his brand-new self in the full-length mirror, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he shook his head stiffly, "No matter how ugly a man puts on such a suit and leather shoes worth two thousand dollars, he will be full of 'charm'."

"Then I'll make you more handsome." Dean took out the credit card he had made not long ago and swiped it, and put on a few packaging bags, "Go, continue shopping!"

"What else to buy?"

"How can a successful man live without a watch?"

……

The two of them went through a big purchase and were busy until three o'clock in the afternoon. They lay paralyzed on the sofa of the car in the same posture, panting heavily.

Paque touched the suit on his body, and said painfully, "I changed this outfit because I worked hard for a month's income."

"There are always a few extravagances in life." A flash of aftertaste flashed in Dean's eyes. The moment when he swiped his credit card was quite enjoyable. No wonder Americans are crazy about this gadget and consume it in advance. "It's a bit late today, and I'll give it to you tomorrow." Buy a car for transportation."

"What car to buy, my old buddy is strong."

"If you continue to drive a motorcycle back to your hometown, that's equivalent to writing a pauper on your face. That won't work, you have to go back decently, buy a house, meet old classmates, and get married."

"You even planned the rest of my life without permission?" Paqui expressed a gratified expression with a trace of helplessness, "Are you an uncle, or am I?"

"Actually, I don't mind exchanging seniority with you."

"Go home and go to the yard, and I'll let you know who has the final say." Paqui clenched his fists and said harshly, then his face froze, realizing that he could no longer beat this nephew. "Forget it, let's go to the shooting range tomorrow to let you see and see."

"Don't go tomorrow, go now, and help me and Andre buy some weapons and equipment." Dean took advantage of the situation and made a request, "Well, some special items."

"Why do you buy those as a high school student? Can you use them?"

"A detective walks in a gray area. If he is not careful, he will offend people and be hunted down. These powerful weapons can give me a sense of security."

"You just talk nonsense."

……

Although Paque complained, he still supported Dean in action.

Combat field shooting range.

"I haven't seen you in half a year, buddy, welcome back intact," Andre laughed and walked towards the side of the shooting road, opened his hands and gave Paque a bear hug, and looked at him in a black suit in surprise, "You are more energetic , but how did your dressing style change, did you get married?"

"Haha, it's not that boy Dean, who made some money and insisted on buying me new clothes. This outfit is worth my monthly income." Paque complained and brought the sleeve of his suit to Andre's nose. On the face, every wrinkle on the rough face is full of joy and pride, the corners of the mouth are grinning, "He also said that he would support me to buy a car and go back to my hometown to buy a house..."

"Stop! I understand now, you are deliberately showing off in front of me, a widowed old man, today? I must get you drunk tonight!"

"Wait a minute, Dean wants to buy some weapons from you. For the sake of being an old friend of more than ten years, let us see your collection and give us some discounts?"

"That won't work. Friendship is friendship, and business is business."

Dean looked at the two big men who were arguing in the distance, and quietly summoned a shadow, staring at its illusory and fogged face,
"Dude, I spent a lot of money for the happiness of your relatives. Should you repay me? Can you grow faster in the future?"

"En." Ying's dull gaze quietly became firm.

……

Next, under Paque's lobbying, the range owner Andre completely opened up his personal arsenal to Dean.

Dean was dazzled by the cornbush-like array of weapons.

After much consideration, he bought a handy fully automatic AR-15,

以及MP5冲锋枪、雷明顿M870霰弹枪、最重要的一把大杀器——明亮的橙黄色涂装的、长度1448mm，重11.8kg的麦克米兰TAC-50反器材狙击枪。

加上共计两千发的.45ACP，5.56毫米子弹、9毫米巴拉贝鲁姆手枪弹、12号口径霰弹，.50BMG弹。

Additional magazines, night vision scopes and other accessories.

5 oval M26 grenades.

A Kevlar body armor.

Dean spent nearly $11 in cash in total, and his cash deposit dropped to $[-].

Because it is a private transaction, the price has risen compared to public channels, but everything is worth it. With these weapons and equipment, Dean's combat effectiveness has soared.

Then he tried the gun like crazy, and the two big men poured whiskey.

……

Until the moon rose, the contented Dean left the range in a car with Paque, who was drunk.

Paque sat on the co-pilot and said abruptly,
"Boy, have you chosen your target?"

"What target?"

"A bank? Why do you buy so many arms if you don't rob a bank?"

"I use it to protect myself." Dean said sincerely,
"Don't lie... Hiccup... After I came back this time, I found that you have changed so much that I almost don't know each other." Paque suddenly became sober with his drunken eyes, "But like you once said, we are family , you should support each other, if you encounter any danger or trouble, please tell me."

"Don't worry, I will tell you if you have any difficulties. But now, you should think about it, what kind of car will you buy tomorrow?"

……

Plans don't always keep up with changes.

Early the next morning, Dean got a call, and the smile on his face turned sour.

"Sorry Paqui, I can't accompany you to buy a car today." He apologized to his uncle who was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, "Go and pick one yourself, I'll give you the card."

"Don't mention that fucking car, what's going on?" Paque put down the dark breakfast with a worried expression on his face.
Dean took a deep breath.

"My good friend...Last's mother, Grace, is missing."
