Chapter 325 Gluttonous (Silver update)
A carriage slowly drove into the city limits of Byron.
"We are back again."
Julie looked at the familiar outline of the city and felt very emotional.
"Calm has returned here, and there are too many things that we can't let go of..." Jasmine also sighed.
Even though the Lake family she was loyal to has been destroyed, the relationship between this city and her is more than just a gang.
The shadow of the coachman was silent.
He has dark skin and an expressionless face with ordinary features, and it seems that nothing can move him.
"Shadow, why don't you say anything?" Jasmine asked with a chuckle.
"I am a wanderer, and I have no particular attachment to a certain city." Shadow answered in a voice without any emotion.
But his eyes seemed to glance at Julie inadvertently.
"Actually, we can come back a little earlier..." Jasmine complained: "Also, when are you going to restart the party? I need to buy some materials, um, and advanced knowledge. Maybe I can start making preparations... …”
"All of this is fate."
Julie was not very excited, but took out a newspaper, which published news of the death of two men.
"The old drunkard and the clockmaker are dead... I came back this time mainly to investigate this matter."
Julie said: "Remember... after entering this city, no one can be trusted except the three of us! It's best not to start the party."
"you mean?"
Jasmine covered her mouth in horror: "Do you suspect that the murderer came from inside the party?"
The figures of Jazz, White Cat, Detective, Painter and others flashed across her eyes quickly, and she guessed: "Could it be the butcher who did it? He has always been very violent!"
"As a patron of ouroboros, I occasionally have certain precognitions...in the form of dreams, that is the revelation given to me by ouroboros. Although it is very vague and abstract...but I can feel it. A powerful darkness has been continuously invading Byron..."
Julie shook her head: "Also...he is not a butcher. His ferocious appearance is just his disguise. In fact, he has a gentle and kind heart."
Shadow and Jasmine couldn't help but fell silent. After a long time, Shadow finally spoke: "If that's the case, why do we come back?"
"Because it's inevitable, this is fate!"
Julie replied with a wry smile on her lips.
…
Whisperer Bar.
Jong Shin-soo, holding a glass of martini, wandered around like a lion king patrolling his territory.
It has to be said that in such a place where people gather, all kinds of information and intelligence exchanges are also very frequent.
Although drinkers brag a lot, if you look carefully, you can still understand the specific situation in Byron City.
For example, at this time, he heard a somewhat strange rumor:
"It is said that a glutton appeared in the East District today and destroyed three restaurants and two dim sum shops in a row..."
one drinker boasted.
"I've heard it too. It's said that the big eater has the same appetite as a whale. No matter how much food he fills, he will never be satisfied..."
"That big eater must be very fat, right?" Another middle-aged woman held a wine glass and looked at her figure with some resentment.
"No...it's said that it's just a little girl wearing a black gothic dress!"
"How can this be?"
Many people laughed at this man for drinking too much.
But Zhong Shenxiu did not laugh. His spiritual intuition told him that the other party was not lying.
'A glutton loli? interesting! ’
Zhong Shenxiu shook the wine and slowly put it into his mouth: 'It seems... I came back at the right time this time! ’
…
In the sky, a bright moon hangs high.
Wuhen Bookstore.
Julie casually took out her keys and opened the door.
"Jasmine?"
Holding the food she bought and various cleaning tools, she looked at the darkness in the room with some doubts and turned on the gas lamp.
Da da!
Footsteps sounded, and a girl who looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old walked slowly down the stairs holding a black skirt. She seemed to be chewing something in her mouth, her cheeks bulging like a little baby. hamster.
"Thanks for the treat."
After walking down the stairs, she elegantly pulled out a white napkin and wiped her delicate mouth with a pleasant smile on her face.
"Who are you?"
Julie took a step back and quickly traced a ritual pattern on her back with her fingers.
"My name is Daly!"
The little girl replied with a smile.
"'Glutton' Daley!" Julie's voice changed a little.
This is a well-known ferocious figure in the mysterious world. It is said that he began to contact the spirit world at a very young age, which led to mental madness. Moreover, due to several dangerous experiments, he could never grow up and maintained the appearance of a little girl.
Her real age is probably upwards of fifty. What is even more shocking is her brutal methods.
"Jasmine, where are you and Shadow?"
Julie asked insistently with a hint of crying in her voice.
"Didn't you already guess it?" A more cheerful smile appeared on the corner of Dai Li's mouth: "Would you like to guess who betrayed you?"
There are not many people, or even none, who know the identity and secret base of Julie's group.
"It's the people at the party! Why did they betray me? Why did they kill the old drunkard and the clockmaker?"
Julie asked shakily.
"Because... I'm hungry!"
Dai Li's expression became very sincere: "Worldly people are ignorant and chase mansions, gold, and status... But how can this external desire compare to the most essential desire of human beings... hunger! Because I am very hungry. Ah... Ordinary people can no longer satisfy me. Only the flesh and blood of extraordinary people can make me feel a sense of fullness and pleasure!"
"Now, I beg you, please give me something to eat!"
As soon as Dai Li finished speaking, an indescribable danger suddenly came.
There seemed to be a giant mouth in the void that bit down hard, creating a huge half-moon-shaped gap in the door behind Julie.
However, Julie has disappeared.
"Is it a chase and escape game? Chasing and enjoying the prey is also the will of primitive nature..."
A fanatical expression appeared on Dai Li's face, and her whole body seemed to turn into a wild beast. Her nostrils trembled, and she immediately jumped into the darkness and chased after him quickly.
…
Whisperer Bar.
"It turns out that the sign of a 'perfect person' is that the body and spirit body are completely integrated into one and can transform into each other. In other words...can the true body enter the spirit world?"
Zhong Shenxiu was thoughtful as he held a piece of information sent by Gross.
Such a mysterious person can also switch between reality and reality in the real world. After reaching this point, ordinary firearms and artillery fire are no longer a threat at all.
"No wonder he is called the 'perfect one' with no weaknesses!"
While he was thinking, he felt something, and he rushed out of the bar and came to a remote alley.
Julie, who had horrific injuries, fell into a pool of blood.
Behind her, stood a strange little girl in a black dress: "Jie Jie... After frightening the prey, it will subconsciously flee to a safe nest or look for companions... I deliberately let her go three times, and then she I came here subconsciously, and it seems that this woman still trusts this place."
At this moment, she also saw Zhong Shenxiu, and the smile on her face became more joyful: "A new prey has appeared!"
