Abstraction for a bad world

Chapter 55: Low-end prey often disguises itself as hunters

"Can you use a gun?"

Millie whispered through her thick hair.

He doesn't care at all about the fact that he has lost his ability to move.

Because there is no need to worry at all.

——Marina, she never had even a little bit of malice towards him from the beginning to the end.

“Oh, ah… yes.” Marina blinked in confusion, “Why are you asking this now?”

"Are you stupid? Of course she wants to kill the landlord of this trench with you. She would be afraid when she's alone, but there's nothing to be afraid of when there's two of us."

Yuan Qingzhuo stood by the windowsill, looking at the stuffed dolls one after another: "You can guess this without even thinking about it."

"Is that right?"

Marina was shocked.

"who are you talking to?"

Millie turned her eyes but found no trace of the third person.

The possibility of a powerful psychic or a modified human with invisible genes can be ruled out. If there really is such a person accompanying him, it would be too embarrassing to have fallen to this state.

So there is only one possibility left.

Millie suddenly felt a little regretful for being so soft-hearted just now.

——She is mentally ill.

In the City of Sun, the most terrifying things are not the gangsters with blood on their hands, nor the capitalists who are dressed in luxurious clothes and suck human blood.

But those cyber maniacs.

Because you never know when the other person will get sick.

They might be toasting each other and calling each other brothers one moment, and then pull out a machine gun and shoot all their good brothers the next.

In the eyes of cyber maniacs, these may just be entertainment and laughter among friends.

"They are my good friends, Xiao Yuan and Lao Lang!"

Marina let go of Millie, put her hands on her hips proudly, and pointed at the old wolf who was leaning against the wall unhappily and Yuan Qingzhuo who was quite interested in the doll.

Millie looked in the direction of her finger, but saw nothing.

This guy... is indeed a psychopath.

"Have you undergone prosthetic modification?"

Millie asked.

——If someone undergoes prosthetic modification, not to mention looking like a good person, even if he is the ultimate compassionate saint, he may shoot all the people he should save in the process of "saving people".

If Marina answered "yes", Millie would jump out the window and leave without hesitation.

It doesn't matter even if I'm the one who suffers the loss.

This isn't about good guys or bad guys.

In the City of Sun, no normal carbon-based creature would want to stay with a cyber madman.

"How can I have that kind of money?"

Marina hung her head in disappointment. "I still want to be reformed. With an iron arm, I won't be wandering around anymore. But the fact is that I have never been to a black clinic."

Because just stitching up a wound would cost a huge sum of money, which is enough for her food money for a week. God knows how expensive it would be to replace the prosthesis.

Millie breathed a sigh of relief, but she was still on guard - if Marina became abnormal, she would immediately point the gun at her.

"As for why I asked you if you could use a gun, it was because I wanted to kill the landlord with you."

Lori glanced at Marina, picked up the revolver, and took the bullet out of the stuffed bear.

"Hey, why so sudden?"

"If you don't kill her, she will come to kill you in an hour. She might even take advantage of the situation to get rid of me as a threat. Don't think I'd be stupid enough to risk my life to save you."

Millie loaded the bullets into the cylinder one by one.

"Either get out of here and I'll pretend nothing happened, or come with me to kill her - if you want something, you have to pay for it. There's no such thing as getting something for nothing with me." Millie turned on the safety, put the heavy revolver in front of Marina, and said coldly; "Do it or not?"

"The choice is now yours, Marina."

Yuan Qingzhuo squatted beside her and said nonchalantly, "You won't run away with your tail between your legs this time, will you? The enemy is in the open and we are in the dark, and it's two against one in a small space. I can't imagine how I can lose."

Marina lowered her eyes, trying not to see the revolver. She took several deep breaths and suddenly asked, "Why did you say that the landlord would come to kill me in an hour?"

She was waiting for the answer that Yuan Qingzhuo had guessed long ago.

"To be precise, I was the one who killed you. She was just here to collect your body and divide the spoils."

Millie's voice was emotionless. "But I think you're a better partner, that's all."

"Is that why?"

Marina still didn't take the revolver.

Yuan Qingzhuo suddenly blinked, stood up and walked to the other side of the door, and looked at the old wolf who was complaining constantly.

"Since when does it take so many reasons to kill someone in the City of Sun?"

Millie said coldly,
"If you don't even dare to do this...then get out of my sight right now."

After a short silence, Marina suddenly grinned, took out a black pistol from her pocket, and laughed happily: "To be honest! When I first saw that old Deng, I wanted to blow her head off!"

"That smile doesn't show that he's a good person. He's so sinister."

She brandished the pistol and loaded the magazine expertly. Her eyes were sharp and fierce, just like a high-end hunter who had experienced hundreds of battles. "Kill him instantly or injure him and interrogate him? My interrogation skills are already very advanced!"

No, you don't have that skill...

Similar thoughts emerged in Yuan Qingzhuo and Laolang's minds at the same time.

Yuan Qingzhuo could clearly see the stiffness in Marina's smile - she was simply trying to be brave.

"Is that so?"

Millie calmly retracted the revolver, turned off the safety and put it on her waist: "Then you hide in the bathroom, come out when you hear the door open, try to save her life, and we will split the stuff 50-50."

"Okay, OK, leave it to me! This kind of thing is easy for me!"

Marina patted her chest confidently, turned around and strode towards the toilet not far from the door.

Yuan Qingzhuo followed her in and soon discovered that Marina's hand holding the gun was shaking like Parkinson's disease, and it was almost leaving an afterimage.

"You are just a fool!"

Yuan Qingzhuo laughed loudly, causing his trembling ears to stand up straight: "Who, who said that!"

Marina frowned fiercely with an expression that looked like she was about to cry, and whispered in Yuan Qingzhuo's ear: "I just don't want to cause trouble. If something really happens, I won't back down."

"Do not."

Yuan Qingzhuo pointed at her index finger which she could not help raising from time to time and said bluntly,

"You are clearly a coward, Old Wolf can testify to that."

Marina gritted her teeth, gripped the gun tightly, and said nothing more.

About an hour later.

First there were light footsteps at the door, followed by four rhythmic knocks on the door.

"Is everything resolved?"

It was the landlord's shrill voice.

Millie placed the bear beside her where she could be seen from the door, and glanced at the revolver in the corner, which she could reach by taking a step forward.

She responded calmly,

"Well, as usual, a fat sheep with no vigilance."

There was a creaking sound of rollers turning at the door.

Marina placed her index finger on the trigger.
