Chapter 59 Hongmen Banquet

In the hospital in Hesai Town, Zhu Jue was sitting in a wheelchair. His injured right leg had just been bandaged. He was tilting his head to study the intelligent operating system loaded on the wheelchair and strolling around the hospital corridor with Olivia.

The raincoat is downstairs, and naturally there is no reason to bring it up when bandaging the wound.

After a while, it was dusk, and the increasing rainfall could be felt from the dense water droplets hanging from the corridor windows and the dull sound coming into my ears. It made me feel depressed involuntarily, and even there seemed to be a lot of fewer patients in the hospital.

"Why did you suddenly think of coming to the hospital?"

Olivi asked in confusion, holding jelly pudding in her hand, sitting on the plastic chair on the side of the corridor.

"Hey, what are you saying? I was injured and I couldn't bandage the wound?"

Take out the handbag that was originally placed in your backpack and stuffed it into your arms. Zhu Jue continued,

"To be honest, it's time to tell the police station about my injury, right?"

With Zhu Jue's physique, this level of gunshot wound is actually nothing. The ability to gain by eating ghoul evolutionary meat could allow Zhu Jue to recover easily through food supplements. Since he came to this hospital, he naturally had other considerations.

"Well, I told them that they will send you back to Shuguang City to recuperate tomorrow, but is this really effective?"

Although he was a little strange about Zhu Jue's thoughts, Olivi still notified the police station in Hosai Town in advance according to his statement.

"What do you think we can do with just the confession of a mutant of a spiritual pollution source?"

What West said before, Zhu Jue actually tends to believe that it was the truth. After all, although West was conspiring at that time, there was no need for him to deceive Zhu Jue on such things. It was just that some things were never useful if he thought they were real.

Zhu Jue can use various means without any scruples about the monsters from the source of spiritual pollution, but this is a small town within the jurisdiction of the federal government. If he wants to conduct a large-scale search, he will have to come up with clear evidence. Even the Archaeological Association cannot trust the monsters from the source of spiritual pollution, let alone the government.

The reason for throwing West directly into the Hosai Town Police Station is very simple. Zhu Jue wants to hand over the choice to the Hosai Town police.

Whether they have any problems will be found tonight.

"What happened to you by the lake before? I have never seen you have that kind of situation... Don't say that you are stupid when reading books, I don't believe it."

While speaking, Olivi was still deliberately bringing the topic to what had just happened.

"Reading is just an inducement. The guy in the swamp lake wants to control my spirit and turn me into its believer... Without your shot, you probably might see me in the cult camp now."

Zhu Jue stretched and told the "terrifying incident" that almost happened just now in a plain tone.

This was an accident that he didn't even expect. Although the bear monster had a similar state when his will was still there, it only restricted his actions. There was still self-consciousness and thinking, but this time it was an exception.

Of course, there are also reasons why Zhu Jue was not prepared in advance. After all, the police station in Hesai Town is at least a few hundred meters away from the swamp lake.

"Are you the two leaders from the Archaeology Association?"

Olivi was about to speak, but the sound from behind them made them all stop. The nurse in a white dress trotted over from the other side of the corridor and asked.

"Yes, it's us, is there anything wrong?"

"Just just now, the mayor knew about the two...the gentleman was injured and asked us about the situation. Then he told us that we wanted to invite two to participate in a festival party in the town and express our gratitude to you in person. After all, the two will leave the town tomorrow."

The nurse's eyes kept browsing back and forth on the faces of the two, as if she was trying to find some clues from their expressions.

“Tonight?”

Zhu Jue frowned and asked, obviously he replied with some displeasure.

"Everyone knows that I was injured and asked me to attend a cocktail party. It was raining rain again... Olivia, why don't you be alone?"

"How can I go alone? You probably can't sleep tonight anyway. What's the point of going there? Drinking two glasses of wine may relieve your leg injury."

Olivi naturally understood what Zhu Jue meant, and cooperated with him to look embarrassed and looked at the nurse and asked.

"Can we just go for a while? We will come back after the mayor's thanks."

"I think this should be OK. The call has not been hung up yet, so why don't you guys now..."

"No, just go and say it."

After saying that, Olivi pushed Zhu Jue's wheelchair and turned away. The nurse stayed there for a while, and then looked at the two of them leaving, and ran back to reply as if she was thinking of something.

"I didn't expect that I could not hold back so quickly... They were not afraid that we would know the situation in the town from West's mouth and then be alert to them?"

The night before leaving, I expressed my gratitude at a small cocktail party. This behavior was not surprising in normal times, but it was a bit intriguing when they knew there was something wrong with the town.

"What you should think of is that it is precisely because we may have some special information from West's mouth that they have to solve us before we leave."

He took the remaining half of the pudding in Olivi's hand, and without taking her spoon, he swallowed it with his neck, smacked his lips twice, and continued,

"One of us is a disabled person. We have just suffered a thigh injury. There are so many people in the hospital who can't do it. In the eyes of others, I am a waste now, and the rest is you. You must know that this is their base camp. If they don't even dare to do this, their life in occupying Hesai Town for so many years has been wasted?"

After all, those guys hiding in the shadow of Hesai Town cannot afford to bet on that if Zhu Jue and Olivi had their evidence, they chose to let the two leave Hesai Town, and the result was that they could not bear it.

"This cocktail party is just the two of us, you are in this state..."

After listening to Zhu Jue's words, Olivi was a little worried. No matter what, Zhu Jue's injuries did exist.

"Before you go in later, you have to find a place to escape or hide. Once a conflict breaks out, you have to leave the room as fast as possible, and you don't have to worry about the rest."

Since he has made up his mind to take risks, he must communicate in advance. Zhu Jue is not afraid. As long as Olivi can ensure his safety, even if the other party does have some special means, he can find a way to run out.

"Are you going to fight them alone?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it's enough."

Zhu Jue turned the pudding box in his hand, and the translucent box shone with a strange light under the illumination of the hospital incandescent lamp.

......

The gentle and melodious saxophone music was played in the tavern, and light brown notes drifted around the beams in a holographic projection.

Beige chandeliers hang in several corners, with a large number, but the light is not very bright. There are shadows in some places, leaving blank space for the whispering people.

The amber wine swayed in the glass, and the ice swayed and jingled in the collision between the glasses.

"Is there really a problem with these people?"

Olivi sat on a wooden barrel-style chair, looking at the hot atmosphere ahead, and began to doubt whether his guess was correct.

In total, couples over 100 years old communicate in a low voice. Middle-aged people gathered together in groups, holding their wine glasses high, and occasionally laughing lightly. Young men and women swaying beautiful bodies on the dance floor, and everyone's face was filled with joy.

This is quite different from what the two of them had imagined before.

"Let's wait and see."

Zhu Jue gave the wind chime to the hair in one hand, and held the snacks on the table in the other hand, glanced at Olivia and continued,

"Add to add, when I let you go, you follow the wind chime."

"Okay, I'll protect the wind chime."

Olivi knew the importance of wind chimes to Zhujue, so he nodded immediately.

"What do you think? I'm letting it protect you..."

"ah!"

Although she knew that the wind chime was not simple, Olivi was still angry about Zhu Jue's naked contempt.

"Let us extend the warmest applause and cheers for the two leaders of the Archaeological Associations who have come from Dawn City to help us from Hesai Town!!!"

Not far away, the mayor of Hesai Town grabbed the old-fashioned loudspeaker hanging from the beams and sent his voice to every corner of the tavern.

The subsequent applause and cheers made Zhu Jue and Olivi both raise their hands and wave them awkwardly. Neither of them like to show off their talents, and even the seats were deliberately leaning against the wall closer to the door.

Of course, there are also many considerations that will be easy to run later.

Fortunately, there was no part of expressing my thoughts, and everyone started to play with their own things, completely like a holiday party.

"Have you discovered weapons or ritual props or something?"

Although Zhu Jue said he didn't have to worry, Olivi could not help but use the corner of her eyes to observe everything around her while siping wine, paying attention to any place where the killer objects might be hidden. Even this glass of wine came from the unsealed wine she took from the wine cabinet when she entered the door, ensuring that it would not be drugged in advance.

"Don't think about it, their weapons are not here... The plan has changed. Don't go out of the door later, and go through the windows on the inside of the tavern. Now you can find a way to touch it, and the potion is ready to be used at any time."

Zhu Jue leaned back on the wall of the tavern and whispered.

In front of him, the people in the tavern sang and danced peacefully, and the atmosphere was warm.

Behind him, in the heavy rain outside the tavern, a large number of figures were walking out in the bushes.
