Chapter 226 Little Red Riding Hood’s Potential

Xia Shou returned to the guest room and saw a huge spider hanging from the ceiling as soon as he entered the room. Its plump abdomen and back were covered with black compound eyes, and brown-yellow saliva kept dripping from its ferocious mouthparts, dripping onto the bed.

Alice's hands on her neck exerted a little force, reminding Xia Shou that this was just an illusion caused by delusion.

"La la, la la la~" Xia Shou hummed a little tune, turned around and went into the bathroom, washing up as if nothing had happened.

Alice tore open the packaging of a disposable toothbrush, squeezed toothpaste into Xia Shou's mouth, and used the Bass brushing method to deep clean it.

Xia Shou heard the rustling sound of a spider crawling behind him. He saw through the mirror that the spider squeezed sideways along the door frame into the toilet. The movement of avoiding obstacles was as if it had a real entity.

The spider lay on the wall behind it, and more and smaller spiders spread out from under it along the wall, like a punctured cocoon.

Many spiders crawled onto the mirror that Xia Shou was facing, and Xia Shou's heart skipped a beat.

He suddenly realized a potential risk.

People have instinctive reactions. If a cockroach flies towards them, most people will subconsciously dodge and make various reactions. So now if this group of spiders rushes towards it, can they control themselves and not move?

Just as Xia Shou hesitated, his perspective suddenly became pitch black.

After a moment's thought, Xia Shou knew that Alice had used her ability to deprive him of his perspective.

As expected of Alice, she is so thoughtful.

After a while, when Xia Shou regained his vision, the spider on the mirror had disappeared, but the big spider behind him was still lying in the original position. Xia Shou wiped his face with a hot towel, walked out of the bathroom, then nonchalantly lifted the quilt covered with brown and yellow mucus, lay down comfortably, and closed his eyes.

Xia Shou gradually felt the risks brought by delusion.

Although he had Alice's help in predicting the future, some instinctive reactions of the human body would still expose the facts that he could see when he was unprepared.

This time Alice helped him block his vision, but what if the next time it happens more suddenly? Or maybe the hallucination whispers in his ear in the middle of the night when he is asleep, and he may be exposed for being able to hear it while he is asleep.

Xia Shou sighed tiredly, temporarily putting aside these unsolvable problems, emptying his mind so that he could fall asleep.

It was another process of gradually becoming drowsy and his consciousness slowly blurring. Then in the next moment, he suddenly woke up. The cold sea water had surrounded him, and the floating feeling was like a cradle wrapping him.

Entering the sea of ​​roots.

Depth, 1535 meters.

As usual, Xia Shou habitually looked towards the deep water around him. Strange and mottled shadows were still in the depths in the distance. There was nothing strange floating around, and it was no different from every time he went to sleep.

Then, Xia Shou took out the choir badge, entered the pale space, pushed open the door and walked into the club.

Little Red Riding Hood's double-door refrigerator figure is as conspicuous as ever, chatting with a group of people together with Sparrow.

Among a group of people wearing plaster masks, Sparrow, a VIP member with a specific pirate image, is particularly conspicuous.

"Hmm~ Look who's here?" Sparrow walked towards Xia Shou with a staggering step, raised his orchid finger, and leaned his upper body back slightly to circle around Xia Shou, looking at him as if Xia Shou was some kind of rare animal or alien. "I heard that you haven't paid off the epic fragment you owed to Little Red Riding Hood yet, hehe."

He grinned, revealing his dirty teeth and the golden canine, and a strong smell of alcohol emanated from his mouth.

"Faust! I thought you were dead!" Little Red Riding Hood opened her strong arms and tried to hug Xia Shou, but Xia Shou dodged her easily with a side step.

"Hey, don't be so cold. I didn't ask you to pay back the debt. You really hurt my heart." Little Red Riding Hood joked, shrugging her shoulders nonchalantly. Then she changed the subject and lowered her voice, "How is it? Is there any progress on that matter?"

"Yes, I understand everything about Yuezhuo Village." Xia Shou said.

These words slipped into Sparrow's ears, and he immediately put away his smile, tilted his head and tilted his ear, and moved closer in an obscene manner, trying to eavesdrop.

Little Red Riding Hood put her arm around Xia Shou's shoulders and pushed Sparrow away with her other hand. She said sarcastically, "The famous Captain Sparrow wouldn't eavesdrop, would he?"

"Ha! Of course! You guys chat...you guys chat." Sparrow touched the smoky makeup on his eyes, grinned, turned around, and seemed to be about to walk away, but he circled and began to whistle slowly around Xia Shou and Little Red Riding Hood.

Little Red Riding Hood pulled Xia Shou directly into a private room on the first floor and slammed the door shut, blocking Sparrow who was following quickly outside the door.

"So, what kind of place is Yuezhuo Village?" Little Red Riding Hood asked excitedly, staring at Xia Shou with her plaster head, and picked up the whiskey on the booth and poured him a glass.

Xia Shou told Little Red Riding Hood some information about Yuezhuo Village, especially the rules of Yuezhuo Village.

Now that Yuezhuo Village has disappeared, these rules are naturally useless, but pointing out the danger of Yuezhuo Village can make the other party pay more attention to their "fruits of labor."

"It's such a dangerous place. Then the information about the midnight radio station..." Little Red Riding Hood hinted cautiously.

"The debt I owe."

"Well, although the information you brought back is indeed valuable, there is no threat to Moonburn Village now, so the information cannot be sold at a high price. It is difficult for me to do this."

"I went to investigate Yue Zhuo Village as you asked. Now that Yue Zhuo Village has been resolved, you don't want to admit it, right?

Aren't those people going to deal with Yue Zhuo Village after getting the intelligence? Isn't it good that someone helped you solve it?
In this case, next time you ask me to do something, I won’t be able to do it even if I can. I will just bring the intelligence to you in exchange for the scraps and let you find someone to do it yourself.”

"Oh, don't be angry. My, my, it's my fault that I didn't figure it out. Let me cancel out the incomplete pieces you owe me! In addition, I would like to ask you to continue investigating the matter of Midnight Radio. Since Yuezhuo Village and Midnight Radio are so closely connected, you will definitely be able to find something by following the clues." Little Red Riding Hood humbly tested Xia Shou's attitude.

Although Xia Shou did not say it explicitly, if he still couldn't guess who solved the problem of Yuezhuo Village, then he wouldn't have to work as an intelligence agent. Who could know so much about the strange phenomena of anti-memes?
Of course, only this weird person can be solved! Others can't remember it at all!

Combined with the conversation between Ximen Qing and Faust that he overheard last time, he can conclude that Xia Shou is the main person to deal with Yuezhuo Village!

"As expected of you, little brother. You can actually break into such a dangerous place. You are a real hidden talent." Little Red Riding Hood praised.

Xia Shou raised his finger and pointed at the other person's nose, sternly warning him: "Don't talk nonsense, I just heard it from others."

"I understand, I understand. The rule of this club is that reputation comes first. Just relax, I will keep it absolutely confidential!" Little Red Riding Hood laughed, feeling happy in her heart.

He made the right bet this time. Faust is definitely a potential stock and might even be the next Sparrow.

Fortunately, I acted as a guarantor for Xia Shou last time, and now, this favor has paid off greatly.

We must maintain this relationship well in the future. We cannot let the relationship that we have fought so hard for be replaced by others.

Thinking of this, Little Red Riding Hood remembered what Xia Shou had asked him to do last time, so he volunteered, "Brother, didn't you ask about the Blood God's relics last time? We were supposed to meet tomorrow night, but that person happened to be here today, how about we meet? I have a pretty good relationship with that person, so it's absolutely no problem for me to help you get a few discounts, and I won't charge you for my service!"

Xia Shou thought for a moment and nodded: "Then let's meet. I will keep the matter of the midnight radio station in mind."

Although he had not been in contact with Little Red Riding Hood for a long time, Xia Shou had a general idea of ​​what kind of person she was. Although she had some shortcomings, overall, she was a sensible and reasonable person with strong business capabilities, and they could be used for long-term cooperation.

"Then let's go?"

"Let's go."

"Oh, by the way, if you have any information you want to sell in the future, you can tell me first and I will help you sell it. You will definitely make more money than if you sell it yourself! It can also help you save time. The club intelligence store is my main business... hehe."

Little Red Riding Hood let out a happy macho laugh and gave Xia Shou a thumbs-up.

The two men pushed the door open and walked out of the box, startling Sparrow who was waiting outside.

Before Sparrow could come up to talk, Little Red Riding Hood stepped in front of Xia Shou and politely announced, "Spyro, I am now the spokesperson for Brother Faust. I have a lot of information about the radio station and Moonburn Village that you want to know... But now we have to discuss another business. I will talk to you alone later?"

"Hehehe...So wait for good news?"

Sparrow narrowed his eyes and gave an exaggerated smirk, then he took off his tricorn hat and raised it as a farewell, then turned and walked away.
