Chapter 264 You Still Have the Power to Give Up

Chapter 264 You Still Have the Power to Give Up
The next day, it was getting dark.

After Wu Wang prepared lunch for his second sister, he went out under the pretext that a friend had invited him to a party.

What happened at the welfare home last night has come to an end.

Xiezhi packed up at dawn and prepared to go to the headquarters.

Meet the so-called Director of the Verification Department.

If nothing unexpected happens, Wu Wang feels that he will join this department.

Then he may be transferred out of Mingyang City.

Fortunately, Xiezhi also said that the tentative acting head of Mingyang City is an acquaintance of his - [Beilang].

At least I don’t need to get back into the relationship with the Special Affairs Bureau.

Shutong and Yingluo also had their own things to do and left Mingyang City.

Of course, when he came out of the wine Taoist's gourd.

Yingluo also boasted to herself about how badly she beat that guy in Hululi Cangkong.

If nothing unexpected happens, there is no special treatment.

That idiot will have to stay in the hospital for at least a year or two.

Regardless of whether the subsequent physical injuries can be healed, at least the psychological trauma is not so easy to get over.

As for the problem with Spider.

This also made Wu Wang's expression a little unhappy when he went out.

When I woke up the sleeping Spider and put the note in front of him to question him.

There was only one answer -

"What old man in the dream? Did I ever tell you about this?"

When it comes to this.

He even looked at the psychiatrist in confusion.

Wu Wang naturally also looked at the other party with that cold gaze.

Under the gaze of the two, the psychologist who had seen countless people develop psychological problems due to playing dungeons.

I felt a little panic for no apparent reason.

She nodded frantically to indicate that this thing was definitely given to her by Spider before.

Regarding the contradictory words of these two people.

Wu Wang ultimately did not point out who was lying.

Because [Li Ran Zhou Wei] told him that both of them were telling the truth.

[Spider] really didn't know anything about the old man in the dream or even the note.

He even had no recollection of when the note was placed on him.

In addition, from this incident, Wu Wang personally experienced the subtlety of controlling other people's bodies.

It made him feel baffling.

The "Spider" who handed the note to the psychiatrist at that time was definitely not the 12-year-old child he is today.

His body might have been controlled by another being at that moment.

Is he a fortune teller?
The fall of Wu is uncertain.

But we still hold the idea of "if the enemy comes, we will stop him with our troops; if the water comes, we will block it with earth."

Since we have agreed to meet today.

Then he naturally won't retreat.

After leaving home, Wu Wang came to the door of E Secret Room Store with ease.

I took this class for a while.

It’s not a strange place, but it’s not that familiar either.

The existence of escape room stores basically targets young people as their consumer group.

Plus, the E-Secret Room where he works is a store with a horror theme.

Therefore, there are very few people over 35 years old who come here to play.

If the fortune teller really appeared.

The Taoist costume and white hair must be eye-catching.

Wu Wang also knew very well that this secret room store only opened for business at 1 p.m. and closed at 1 a.m.

The busiest time is usually around lunch time.

Today is the weekend again.

When he arrived at the store, as expected, he saw a large number of customers.

There were six young people in COS costumes playing with their mobile phones; seven high school students were carrying suitcases and chatting about school matters, probably preparing to return to school for evening self-study; five skinny and energetic young men and a little girl were smoking and talking nonsense by the window.

The coser produced the character images from the anime "Bungo Stray Dogs".

Among them, Wu Wang quite likes the character Dazai Osamu.

After all, the other person likes to commit suicide, and so does he.

"Hmm... not yet? You old man have no sense of time, do you?"

Unfortunately, none of these people saw the old Taoist priest that Wu Wang had imagined.

He looked at the clock on the wall.

The time has reached 17:59.

Outside the door, the evening glow also climbed up to the treetops, adding a warm yellow hue to the sky.

"Oh~ Isn't this our resigned Master Wu?"

"Why are you free to come and see the store today? You can't find a job and plan to go back to work, right? You can't be here to play in the escape room, right?"

A sarcastic voice came from behind the cash register.

Wu Wang glanced over.

I saw a young woman who was chewing gum and wearing light makeup and looked pretty.

He looks to be in his early twenties.

But Wu Wang knew that she was actually younger.

He should be nineteen years old. He dropped out of high school and went out to work.

There is no family problem. It's just his own fault. He refuses to study.

If I have to categorize her, the energetic young man and the little girl over there are quite suitable for her.

Don’t be fooled by her light makeup and delicate appearance now.

I guess after get off work, I will immediately put on some makeup, change my clothes and go to the bar or disco to dance.

Day after day, year after year.

This woman has always been unhappy with me.

Perhaps it was because on her first day at work, Wu Wang had sarcastically disparaged the young woman by saying, "Many people in life are 'mildly mentally retarded', but they can take care of themselves, so they haven't been discovered."

And he used his rich knowledge to attack her poor knowledge reserves from all angles.

After all, in Wu Wang's opinion, those who choose to drop out of school without any special reasons will still end up living a life of drunkenness and dreams every day.

It's hard not to describe it as slightly mentally retarded.

It's typical of giving up the long-term future for momentary pleasure.

It’s not that Wu Wang looked down on those uneducated people.

But he looked down on those people who had better options but chose to fall into depravity.

"Don't worry, I won't go back to the days of working with someone who's mildly mentally retarded." Wu Wang continued his venomous tone, "I just wish there was a white-bearded fortune teller here who could tell you if you'll be crowned emperor in the rest of your life."

"Hehe, wearing a yellow robe, do you think you are living in ancient times?" The woman rolled her eyes and retorted sarcastically.

Wu Wang just shook his head and said, "No, what I mean is - you can only deliver Meituan food."

"Of course, I don't mean to look down on the delivery guy here. I admire people who try their best to live. I just look down on you."

Anyway, I was bored before the fortune teller showed up.

It's okay to make someone angry and pass the time by teasing them.

When Wu Wang sat down on the sofa casually.

I thought that silly girl would be so angry that her teeth would gnash and curse at me.

But unexpectedly, she suddenly reached out and gently stroked his chin.

It was as if there should be a long beard there.

There was no anger in his tone as one might have imagined.

Instead, he said calmly with a hint of joking, "Mr. Wu's words hit the nail on the head."

"Indeed, if this little girl continues to study normally, she will have a future where she can get into university and find a job in a state-owned enterprise."

"Although she may not be destined to be rich and powerful, at least her life will be more stable and comfortable than her current life of drunkenness and debauchery."

"At least, if that were the case, she wouldn't have been killed in a car accident ten days later."

"Unfortunately, this is fate."

Wu Wang, who was about to peek in to chat about the hell jokes with the group of Cosers, was stunned.

Sit up straight and look towards the cashier counter.

The woman's eyes no longer had the clear stupidity of the past, but were instead filled with unfathomable cunning and indifference.

Fortune teller!

He is here!
"Oh, since you invited me here, you don't dare to show your true face?"

"Old man, I'll just call you old man for now. If I'm unhappy, I'll just be an old thing. What do you want to do?"

Wu Wang asked slowly.

This also fits with his speculation about the Spider yesterday.

The situation now is the same as when Spider handed the note to the psychiatrist.

The woman in front of him had been controlled.

Hearing his words, the other party laughed.

He shook his right hand and made a loose grip, as if he was holding something.

He raised his left hand slightly and placed the invisible object on it.

Wu Wang saw the clues at the first moment.

whisk.

He should be holding a whisk in his hand.

But now, the whisk cannot be seen through a woman's body.

"I don't want to do anything, I just want to see a clear future."

"By the way, let's talk to Wu Xiaoyou about his views on 'fate'."

"Since you call me old man, I will call you young friend. Do you mind?"

The scene now is quite strange.

Logically speaking, there are so many customers around, and many of them are even asking questions at the cashier.

I want to know when their sessions will start.

But the woman just talked to Wu Wang on her own.

Even the content of the conversation was confusing to others.

The others didn't show any signs of anger.

It was as if he was completely unaware of Wu Wang and her abnormal behavior.

In a trance, there was a sense that although there seemed to be many people in this room, there were actually only Wu Wang and the fortune teller.

"Fate? Sorry, I don't believe in that."

"I'm the kind of jerk who, if I find so-called life-borrowing money on the street, even if I don't spend it right away, I'll throw it into the merit box at the temple and let it touch the Buddha."

Wu Wang raised his eyebrows and said.

He even knew he was an asshole.

Because he actually did the latter thing.

What happened next was that my eldest sister pulled my ear and took me to apologize to the abbot of the temple.

After all, what is stuffed into the merit box is not only money for borrowing life, but also a letter asking the Buddha whether he believes in God.

His bad words did not make the fortune teller angry.

She just sat back in her chair calmly.

Start answering questions from the guests around you.

That's when.

A high school student walked to the water dispenser next to the sofa where Wu Wang was sitting to get some water.

He smiled and said, "The 'fate' I'm referring to isn't life or death, but destiny. You can understand it as destiny."

Someone changed! ?

This sudden voice sounded beside me.

It also made Wu Wang feel a little alert.

Because he didn't feel anything unusual from beginning to end.

It's as if these words were spoken by a high school student.

When did the fortune teller control him?
Can't tell at all.

For this reason, Wu Wang even quietly rolled up his sleeves.

Reveal the red vertical pupils.

Still no special markings were found.

Even when the high school student spoke in the tone of a fortune teller, the inner thoughts that surfaced on his forehead were still——

[When we enter the secret room later, will Cheng Siyu hide behind me if she gets scared?]

[I wonder if she will agree if I take out the flowers I hid in my schoolbag after playing in the secret room and confess my feelings to her?]

Obviously this is the student's own idea.

This means that the fortune teller's control method is completely different from the method used by the previous [Disaster Cult members].

There is absolutely no sign that the students' souls themselves have been marginalized.

"Or I might ask it in a different way."

"If there are two futures before you, my friend."

"One is to fight for the world, shouldering everything, yet not be remembered by the world, becoming a dedicated person in the shadows."

"One is to be indifferent to the world, to become an immortal alone, to break free from the shackles of the seven emotions and six desires, and to be free and eternal."

"Which one would you choose?"

The fortune teller's words seemed to have some magic power.

Wu Wang died when he heard the first half.

In a trance, I could see myself covered in scars, with a distorted expression of pain in the shadow of the city.

The surroundings are full of lights and wine, and the city is still decadent and decadent.

Amidst the hustle and bustle, no one was paying attention to him.

Wandering aimlessly like a ghost in the city.

Just want to find a home.

however.

When the second half is read out.

He saw himself again in a dark windbreaker, sitting on the scorched earth of a building.

Everywhere you look is dust.

The huge abandoned city is like a steel tomb, so quiet that it makes people shudder.

According to the degree of weathering of the surrounding environment and the coverage of vegetation.

Wu Wang immediately determined that this was a ruin that was at least several hundred years old.

It is almost impossible to distinguish the outline of the city.

It's like the scene after human extinction in some science fiction works.

The pool of water at my feet reflected my reflection in my windbreaker.

The appearance remains unchanged.

But his eyes were dull, as if he had lost his soul.

"Being a devotee in the shadows sounds great, but one suffers terribly; becoming an immortal sounds free and easy, but the price is becoming a lone life at the end of time."

"Oh, it sounds like neither of them has a good ending."

Wu Wang looked at the young face of the high school student.

I couldn't help but sneer, "Old man, it's like asking if I would save the cat or the painting if there was a fire in the museum."

"You deliberately placed completely unequal weights on both ends of the scale, so a one-sided picture is bound to appear."

"Then put morality on the lighter side and try to declare that the two are now of equal weight."

"As if that could be used to measure the depth of your morality."

His words sounded extremely sarcastic.

It seems that if you choose to keep yourself safe and ignore your dedication, the fortune teller will criticize your morality the next second.

That's not necessary. Wu Wang can answer right now with his hands on his hips - he has no moral concept.

The high school student had a puzzled expression on his face.

After getting the water, I went back and whispered something to my classmates.

His eyes would occasionally look towards Wu Wang.

It's like looking at a fool.

At this time, Dazai Osamu, one of the group of Cosers, also came over with a cup of water.

He said softly, "I'm not making a decision for you, nor am I criticizing you on a moral level. I just really want to know your opinion."

"You said both are tragedies, but there's always a bias towards one side. Which side can you accept?"

This sentence was said lightly.

It was as if the two of them were not talking about a tragic future.

It’s as simple as what to eat for lunch.

Wu Wang was too lazy to waste time with him.

He just said with a firm look, "I won't choose either. I don't believe in this bullshit destiny."

“Nothing is predetermined, and no future is certain.”

"If I just lie there and do nothing, then both of your so-called futures will be in vain, right?"

His toughness made the fortune teller laugh instead of getting angry.

He shook his head with a kind and gentle expression.

He raised an eyebrow and said, "But did you believe the future scene yesterday and help another friend out of trouble?"

"Didn't we criticize the cashier girl for her own depravity today?"

Before Wu Wang could continue to refute anything.

The old Taoist continued, using Dazai Osamu's words: "But you are right about one thing——"

"You can choose to lie down and do nothing."

"You still have the power to give up."

After saying that, Dazai Osamu took out an effervescent tablet from his pocket.

He took two glasses of water and placed them in front of Wu Wang.

Drop an effervescent tablet into one of the cups.

Watch as bubbles appear densely from the tablet and move rapidly upwards under the stimulation of the dissolving water molecules.

It's as intoxicating as the boiling dreamy lights and feasting.

"I have finished my fortune-telling for you."

"Drink this glass of medicated water, and all the power and attention you currently possess will be obscured in some reasonable way."

"I promise you a life of mediocrity, without ups and downs or waves."

"It's considered that you've chosen to give up."

"The other cup is when you think everything is okay, including the two tragedies in the future."

“It’s like you’ve chosen the future.”

"How about it? Do you want to get a taste of the future?"

Looking at the fortune teller's deep eyes.

Wu Wang unconsciously glanced at the mark of the Abyss God on his wrist again.

The other party did not respond.

It seemed as if everything that was happening now was extremely boring and not fun, so the Abyss God had no desire to observe.

But he had a strange feeling in his heart.

If I really drink this cup of water with effervescent tablets.

Maybe something will really change.

However, this is not Wu Wang's style.

It's neither giving up nor accepting your fate.

So, he slowly put his hand inside the clothes.

He pulled a glass bottle from his pocket.

The moment you unscrew it, a rich aroma of wine fills the air.

He raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, saying, "I choose this. A single drunk will dispel all my sorrows."

"Sure enough, you should drink while driving."

"This way I won't have any psychological burden when I hit you to death, even though I don't have any in the first place."

Of course, this is just pure venom.

At present, Wu Wang’s murderous intention towards the fortune teller is not strong, and it is almost non-existent.

But he felt uncomfortable with the feeling that the other person was spying on his life everywhere.

This kind of peeping is completely different from the feeling of Zhuge Yue trying to explore her own secrets. The latter is a distorted curiosity and thirst for knowledge. She will not stop until she has dug out all her secrets. She will do it at all costs and does not care about any consequences for herself and her second sister.

What Zhuge Yue wants is to satisfy herself.

But fortune tellers are different.

He seemed to know his own background.

And it’s not something that was known recently.

Perhaps many years ago this old guy was like a surveillance camera, watching his life clearly, but there was no sign of intervention at all.

Apart from asking his second sister to go to Yinyuan Village and giving her a talisman to exorcise evil spirits, it can be said that he completely does not exist in her life.

He gave Wu Wang the feeling of being more of an observer, similar to a photographer shooting documentaries about the animal world, just to record the real habits of animals.

But after Wu Wang, who was the subject of the photo, became aware of the photographer's presence, he obviously couldn't pretend that nothing had happened.

I didn't mean to kill the photographer.

I just want to get the truth from him.

At least you should know what the photographer wants to do. After all, the photographer is just not interfering in your life temporarily.

But he really does have this ability.

Therefore, Wu Wang had to find a way to break the deadlock.

Only by stepping out of the role of being observed and capturing the photographer himself can we discuss the truth with him on an equal footing.

It's like a quarrel on the Internet.

When the other party is able to open your box, you'd better be able to open his box as well, so that both parties can live in peace and achieve a delicate balance of threats.

Therefore, Wu Wang is still trying to find where the fortune teller's true body is hiding.

But there is still no clue.

The other party's method of controlling people is too weird.

Watching Wu Wang drinking.

The fortune teller nodded silently.

He looked a little lonely.

He sighed and said, "No wonder you were chosen by Him."

"Well, I hope that next time we meet, you won't regret your choice today."

After saying this, Dazai Osamu's eyes instantly became clear again.

He scratched his head and decided to find his friends to enter the escape room.

Wu Wang stood up suddenly.

He simply stretched out his right wrist and used the Abyss God Seal to scan everything around him, trying his best to see what the fortune teller was doing.

The other party made an appointment to meet with me today.

Is it really just to discuss these mysterious issues face to face?
Just then, a piece of paper slipped off him.

Before he hit the ground, Wu Wang reached out and caught him.

At this moment, he felt a palpitation.

This familiar feeling is the announcement of [Wrath Game].

[You will unlock the nightmare-level team dungeon - Smiling Sanctuary in three days]

[Please prepare in advance and find any clown-related costumes to wear on the day the dungeon opens]

May you find your own death.

This is the next copy announcement!

But this did not surprise Wu Wangduo at the moment.

He already knew that his next dungeon would be in the world created by [Hope].

The boss also gave me some tasks.
