Xingtie, my life is like walking on thin ice

Seeing how cautious Zhu Qing answered, he obviously knew that the other party's identity was not someone to be trifled with.

"How does that person's fighting ability compare to yours?"

"Let's open Sanqi."

Zhu Qing knocked on the table, "She got three cuts, I got seven."

"..."

"No more joking around. Let's end this issue here. I can only advise you not to provoke her easily. Many powerful people have weaknesses and may be afraid to act rashly due to certain circumstances, but she is different."

It can be said that Huang Quan has almost no weaknesses. As long as she wants, no one can influence her stay or departure except Tongxie himself.

"It's really hard for you to get to know these weird people."

Gold Sand tutted his words twice. "An envoy whose identity is unknown, this Pinocchio trip is becoming increasingly confusing."

There are baits and traps everywhere. The seemingly peaceful Pinocchio is actually a man-eating beast. If you are not careful, you will be swallowed up.

"If it were that easy to handle, you wouldn't come to me for cooperation."

"Same, if it were that easy to handle, you wouldn't agree to cooperate with me."

......

The two of them had a pleasant meal together, chatting about old times and recent developments.

However, the sharing was not very detailed. He just gave a general account of the recent situation. After dinner, Sha Jin left.

It won't take long for these old friends to reminisce about the past, and given their current situation, there is a high probability that they will go further and further apart in the future, and may never have any contact except when they help each other.

The journey of life is always like this. Even companions who are traveling together will drift apart when they reach a fork in life.

They all have their own paths to follow, and separation is the most insignificant thing.

Most of the farewells are usually the last ones in life.

After leaving the restaurant, Zhu Qing also returned to the hotel.

Instead of staying in reality and doing nothing, it is better to go to dreams.

At least now he has one thing confirmed, Huang Quan has at least come to Pinocchio.

No matter what, it is a happy thing that she can find her way to Pinocchio.

He was aimlessly choosing when to go.

Golden moment.

Zhu Qing was not in a hurry to meet Latio. Although he was smart, he could not collect any useful information in the short time since he arrived here.

At this moment, Zhu Qing at least had a little goal.

family.

Zhu Qing didn't know who the traitor in the family was, but as the situation had evolved to this point, the conflict between the family and the watchmaker had become a secondary matter. The traitor in the family was probably the main cause of all these events.

The watchmaker was one of the pioneers of this dreamland, and in some ways, it was no different from his home.

If it weren't for his passion, he wouldn't have been able to transform this former frontier prison into the Pinocchio that countless people yearned for. But what on earth happened that made the watchmaker not only disrupt the Pinocchio but also let so many outsiders in?

Layer upon layer of mysteries gave Zhuqing a headache. There were many clues, but almost no connecting lines. It was like a tree diagram. The more it was divided, the more clues there were, and the more chaotic it became.

"Adoptive father?"

The raccoon's voice sounded from behind, and Zhuqing came to his senses and looked behind him.

The little raccoon was looking at Zhu Qing with curiosity.

"Why are you here?"

"Just wandering around and thinking about the problem, what about you?"

"I'm just strolling around."

Xing scratched his head, "I didn't expect to see you here."

"I didn't expect that. Did you have fun these days?"

"Not bad, there are more trash cans at Pinocchio than I thought."

"There are bronze ones, silver ones, gold ones, and even ones that can hit people."

"..."

Could it be that my silly adopted daughter is suffering from hysteria?

However, it didn't seem strange what happened in the dream, but her hobby...

It's still a bit unbearable. Her hobby of rummaging through trash cans can only mean that her mental state is far beyond that of ordinary people.

"But now I have taken them all down, and I am on my way to becoming the king of the trash can."

"..."

"Godfather, why don't you speak?"

Xing's expression became even more curious.

How should he respond? You're too abstract, I can't find anything to say?

"It's pretty good, keep up the good work."

Xing gave a thumbs-up and said, "From now on, godfather, you are the godfather of the King of the Trash Can, or the Godfather of the Trash Can for short!"

"No, I didn't teach you anything."

Zhu Qing quickly waved his hands and said that he was repaying the favor and that he should just not mention his name when people called him in the future.

He couldn't afford to lose this man.

Xing put her hands on her hips, her expression a bit mysterious.

She paused, then suddenly said, "By the way, what was godfather thinking about just now?"

"Remember the invitation to the Gala Star?"

"Yeah, remember."

"It's the sentence above, [Why does life sleep]."

Star scratched his head.

she does not know.

She is just a star core spirit and cannot think about such philosophical questions.

"Why do people sleep in Pinocchio?"

"Because it's expensive, why not just sleep here and waste credits?"

"..."

That's also a reason.

Xing looked at Zhu Qing, "Godfather, can't you think of the answer to this question?"

"If it were just a question, everyone would have their own answer, but it's a puzzle, and your answer needs to fit within the puzzle."

Zhu Qing shook his head.

"Godfather, are you worried about our trip to Pinocchio?"

"That's it."

Xing pondered for a few seconds, then looked up again.

"I remember the invitation had two sentences at the beginning: 'See the impossible in your dreams, and seek the legacy left by the father of Pinocchio, the watchmaker...'"

The impossible in dreams...

"Godfather, do you know what is impossible in dreams?"

"One cannot dream of things one cannot imagine, and there are simply too many of them."

Zhu Qing also fell into deep thought. An encrypted invitation letter, at least it wouldn't give out completely useless information. Something impossible in a dream...

Suddenly, Zhu Qing thought of the family’s slogan when he came to Pinocchio.

The family promised that death would not happen in dreams. Even in the previous Sulada incident, the guests would only return to reality at the moment of drowning.

On the one hand, it is the self-protection mechanism of the dream, and on the other hand, the family is also blessed by harmony.

But if someone can skip these two, death is not impossible.

Does this mean that I have to find that lost girl and ask her to stab me to test whether it's real or not?

"Forget it. Instead of thinking about this here, I might as well walk around a bit more. Maybe I can gain more."

Zhu Qing shook his head, "Where are you going next?"

Xing also shook her head. She didn't know and she was wandering around aimlessly.

"Then help me keep an eye on someone."

Zhu Qing took out his cell phone, searched for the Robin advertisement, and sent it to Xing.

"Miss Robin is missing?"

?

Zhu Qing slowly typed a question mark.

"She just went back to rehearse. That person's makeup is somewhat similar to Robin's. You can recognize her at a glance. If you see her, remember to send me a message."

"Ah."

Xing nodded and agreed.

As for why Zhu Qing asked Xing to help him keep an eye out?

Of course it’s because Xing is the protagonist of Elio’s script. As long as Huang Quan is involved in this matter, he will most likely know Xing.

As long as Huang Quan is in Pinocchio, the day will come when the two of them will meet again.

"Do you need me to tell her the name of her adoptive father?"

"No, just report Sea Ranger. She won't remember anything else."

Zhu Qing looked at Xing's confused expression and smiled.

"Okay, you continue playing. I'll go somewhere else. If you encounter anything, remember to contact me and I'll get there as soon as possible."

"it is good!"

Xing nodded vigorously, she recognized her adoptive father's ability.

Her adoptive father is invincible!

......

Not long after parting with Xing, before Zhu Qing had time to go anywhere else, he met an unexpected person.

Of course, this person is not surprising, it's just her identity...

"Mr. Zhuqing, the head of the family wants to invite you to a gathering on Sunday."

Looking at the messenger in front of him, Zhu Qing frowned. He had met Sunday a few days ago, and Sunday's attitude towards him was not very good at that time.

Apart from the relationship with Sunday through the robin, he and Sunday did not even know each other. It could only be said that they had met twice.

At this time, while the robin is away, invite yourself over...

No matter how you look at it, it looks like the Hongmen Banquet.

"Can you tell me what it is?"

"I'm sorry, the owner of the family didn't tell me the details. He just asked me to invite you over."

This whole thing is really getting more and more interesting.

"Please lead the way."

Zhu Qing did not refuse. He also wanted to see what Zhou Li wanted to say.
