The legend of Tiga

Chapter 1843 Lies and Deception

clatter! clatter!
One step, two steps!
The soles of the shoes stepped on the cracked asphalt road due to long disrepair, bringing up a light dust, flying around the trouser legs, and then dissipated quietly.

Chiba Cheng looked at it while walking. The poor infrastructure here was quite shocking.

Not to mention the narrow roads. After all, the land area is limited, and most of them are mountains and volcanoes. There are very few plains available. Just like the cattle and horses with only steel coins in their wallets, naturally they can only go to the club to communicate with young models. Go to some music to watch the visual feast.

But the problem is that visual enjoyment has also become a hunger for food.

Chiba Cheng has been to so many worlds, and it is the same everywhere. There are no roads that are too spacious. In Rabbit, the main thoroughfares in the county are all standard two-way six-lanes, but it is extremely rare in this country, even if it is There are only a few bustling metropolises.

There are more single lanes that can be called small alleys between buildings for people and vehicles to pass. These capillary-like roads are spread throughout the city, but such narrow roads are destined to not receive much attention and need to be rebuilt. The future is promising, and the car returning to China next week is more likely to sell well than this.

Not only that, there are also billboards of different sizes, shapes, and colors hanging on the buildings on both sides of these narrow roads. They are stacked on top of each other, making the already narrow airspace even smaller. , blocking the sunlight, making it look very dim even during the day.

And Qianye Cheng, Daichi and Taiga, walked through such a small alley that could almost be said to block out the sky. Not to mention it was shabby, but it was also repaired.

On the side of the road where only one car can pass, telegraph poles pop up from time to time, occupying the already small space. People often have to stop temporarily to wait for cars on the road to pass before going around. Telegraph pole, then move on.

"This road is broken!"

Chiba Cheng didn't know how many times he complained. It was really hard to accept. On this road, even Spider-Man couldn't think of going very fast.

"Not here yet?"

Dadi looked at the Aix Terminal in his hand. In one night, he was able to operate it skillfully. He opened the electronic map in a few seconds and said: "We are already in Black Star Town. There is 1-chome ahead. The road is on the right. Turn left and you’ll reach Lingbanji, where the cafe is.”

".Sounds like it's almost there."

Anyway, just leave.

As for cars
After taking a look at the map before setting off, Chiba Makoto decisively gave up the idea.

With this road condition and congestion, walking is faster than driving.

This is indeed the case. I witnessed too many sausages and loudspeakers along the way.

A developed economy does not mean high quality, and high quality does not mean the absence of road rage. Once there is road rage, the whole world will look like a ghost.

"The cafe is open in such a deep place. Are there really any customers?" Taiga said doubtfully. Along the way, there were fewer and fewer people and cars, and the surrounding buildings also changed from new to old. When we stepped inside After 1-chome, there are even more old houses, which are definitely more than thirty years old.

And such a place belongs to a forgotten place.

Once young people have the opportunity to leave, they will never come back, and the city's decision-makers will not invest any financial resources here. The residents are basically middle-aged and elderly people, and they may drink coffee, but the frequency will never be high. This is probably why coffee shops sell alcohol.

“It just seems normal because it’s abnormal.”

"what?"

"What do you mean?"

Chiba Makoto's words made the other two people have question marks on their foreheads. They understood every word, but even one sentence was confusing.

"It means that if you are in a place like this and see a young man staying here happily, then there is a high probability that he is not normal."

As soon as Qianye Cheng finished speaking, Taiga raised his hand and pointed forward, saying, "Is it like that?"

The two of them looked in the direction Taiga pointed, and saw a well-dressed man walking leisurely on a street that was called historical at best and dilapidated at worst, holding a bottle of bubbles in his hand. He was pouring water into his mouth with his head raised.

Then he heard Taiga's voice, turned his head subconsciously, saw the three people standing on the road at a glance, and immediately recognized the one at the front——

Chiba Makoto!
His lazy expression instantly turned to panic, then he dropped the sparkling water he had just taken a sip from, turned around and ran away, as if he had seen something scary.

"."

Taiga's hand was still pointing, but the person being pointed at flew away. Taiga blinked, and then looked at Chiba Cheng innocently, as if he was saying: "I will I pointed at him once, really just pointed at him, and didn’t do anything else.”

Chiba Cheng shrugged and said, "Let's go, we're here."

Yes, we've arrived.

Not only Chiba Makoto and the others were there, but the man who was so frightened by Taiga's finger that he ran away was also there. He ran with all his strength and opened the coffee shop called 'Black Star' almost in a collision. He opened the door and shouted breathlessly: "No, no, okay, he's coming after me."

The loud bang of the door made a man with a bright head and a beard on his lips who was standing at the bar grinding coffee turn his head and said with a smile: "Kai, don't be impatient, speak slowly. The sky won’t fall for now. Come on, let’s have a cup of coffee. It’s freshly brewed and tastes just right.”

call!call!call!
The man named Kai was breathing heavily, sweat dripping from his forehead, but he didn't bother to take the coffee cup that was handed to him, and said anxiously: "Blake, I just saw that guy."

Seeing that Kai didn't take the coffee cup, the man named Blake drank it himself and said slowly and logically: "Who is it?"

"The one who snatched the Palaji gem from my hand."

Before Kai could finish his words, Blake suddenly turned his head, his face that had been smiling just now turned extremely serious, and said, "Are you sure?"

"Well, that's him." Kai nodded, and then added: "I won't forget it."

"Great." Blake grinned, showing what could be considered a ferocious smile, and said to himself, "I can finally get this key."

"Ok?"

A question mark appeared on Kai's head, and he looked at the somewhat unfamiliar Blake in confusion. The store manager had always been amiable and always smiling, so why did he suddenly become like a villain?

But immediately the store manager's expression returned, and the smile took over his face again, but the smile looked a little cold, and a little...
"Fake!"

This very rude word came to Kai's mind.

How could it be fake?
I have been with the store manager for so long. The store manager has always been very nice and definitely a kind person. How could this happen?
What about fake?

Kai didn't understand, and before he could figure it out, the store manager had already put down the coffee cup in his hand, grinded the coffee again, and said while grinding: "Kai, come to the door to greet the guest."

"Huh?" Kai was stunned for a moment, and then he realized who it was and said worriedly: "The store manager!"

"it's okay no problem!"

The store manager continued to grind coffee slowly and methodically, with a smile on his face. As usual, he was calm and peaceful, unhurried, unhurried and unhurried. Although he didn't know where the store manager's confidence came from, Kai still chose to obey because of his trust, so he got up and went to the door. Before he reached it, the door was dark, with one person in front and two people behind. Already walked in.

"welcome!"

The store manager skillfully said this sentence that he repeated many times every day, and said with a gentle smile: "Do you need anything?"

"."

accident!

I thought it was a shabby place, but the decoration inside was unexpectedly exquisite. Although it had nothing to do with luxury, it looked like it had been carefully decorated and quite aesthetically pleasing.

"Very good."

"I didn't expect that there is such a treasure shop hidden in this place."

Dadi and Taiga admired sincerely, and in exchange, the shop owner smiled happily at being recognized and appreciated.

"Yes, every bit here is carefully arranged by me, and everything is made by myself." The store manager has ground the coffee, poured it into the copper pot, put it on the stove and roasted it. During this process, he kept saying: "You are very discerning, do you want to try our most popular Noba coffee?"

"It smells good."

"Then have a drink."

Dadi and Taiga smelled the aroma emanating from the copper pot. It was the delicious taste of caffeine, which stimulated their taste buds. They couldn't help but swallow their saliva. Affected by this, their brains issued the command of 'desire', so their hands He stretched out his hand to catch the coffee cup that was handed to him.

Then--

A not-so-white hand waved over from the side, fanned the two cups of coffee that were about to be handed over, and poured them on the ground, stirring up the smoke.

But it no longer has the fragrance.

"Ok?"

Daichi and Taiga still maintained their stretched-out postures, but they all turned to look at Chiba Makoto, who knocked over two cups of coffee with a slap. There was doubt in their eyes, and they didn't understand why Chiba Makoto did this.

It's just coffee, why aren't you allowed to drink it?
Chiba Makoto did not explain. After the coffee cup fell to the ground and broke with a crisp sound, he looked directly at the store manager with a frozen smile on his face and said, "Put away your tricks."

The smile on the store manager's face completely disappeared, and his tone also changed, saying: "It seems that you are not here to taste the delicious food."

"Delicious? I can't bear it." Chiba Cheng sat down and faced the store manager, with a distance of less than half a meter, and said: "I don't want to be your Noba's delicacy yet."

"Oh, I was actually discovered by you."

"You are too obvious. It seems that no one has exposed you for a long time, so it is so false."

"Yes, you are still the first."

"There is no way, there are always few smart people."

"."

"???"

If this was a comic book, then the three people, including Kai, would definitely have question marks on their foreheads like crazy. They knew what every word in this conversation meant, but when put together it was incomprehensible.

At this moment, the three people's thoughts resonated, and they all came up with the same thought: What does it mean?
"It means that this store manager opened the cafe in such a remote place not because the rent is cheap or other reasons, but because it is convenient." Chiba Cheng kept turning a handful of fruit on the bar. Dao looked at the store manager but said to the three people behind him: "This guy's coffee can make people fall into a deep sleep. Even the people from the universe can't resist it. After falling asleep, it will be devoured."

When the last syllable fell, Chiba Cheng also caught the fruit knife that was thrown up and then dropped, and then his wrist was swung to one side under the pull of his muscles. The strong force gave the flying knife super speed, like a silver ray. The light instantly crossed a distance of more than ten meters and came to a very common and inconspicuous red sunny doll hanging on the window.

If everything is normal, this knife can definitely tear open the cloth easily, pierce the sunny doll, and scatter into several pieces falling from the air.

However, this sunny day doll itself is not normal.

When the flying knife was about to hit it, it opened its mouth strangely, allowing the flying knife to sink into it and disappear.

It's obviously only three or four centimeters in diameter, but a flying knife that's 10 to 20 centimeters long has disappeared.

this.
It's so abnormal.

Taiga and Dadi's eyes widened, and then they realized something was wrong. The regrets about spilling the coffee before suddenly turned into vigilance.

The store manager's expression became distorted and his expression became ferocious. He glared at Chiba Cheng with vicious eyes and said, "You succeeded in irritating me."

"Uh-huh, I did it on purpose." Chiba Cheng had already stood up, but no longer looked at the store manager. Instead, he turned his head and looked at the window.

The red Sunny Doll, which was originally suspended by a thin thread, was now floating out of thin air. The red cloth under the round head seemed to be blown by a blower, floating up and down, and the eyes that were originally empty were now filled with blood. A red light like that swallowed up the fruit knife's mouth, opened wide, and made sharp noises from it.

Daichi, Kai and even Taiga couldn't help but raise their hands to cover their ears to block the increasingly intense noise. Their faces also showed pain, but Chiba Makoto, who was standing at the front, had no expression on his face. Not only was the change not affected at all, he even raised his hand to pick up the stool he was just sitting on, and then smashed it towards the sunny doll.

The Sunny Day doll floated to one side, avoiding the stool, and let the wooden stool hit the window. With a "crash" sound, the glass shattered, and the Sunny Day doll also flew out from the broken window.

"It ran away!"

Taiga blurted out.

"No, it just doesn't want to destroy this cafe." Chiba Makoto said, turned and walked towards the door. Daichi and Taiga quickly followed, while Kai looked at the empty bar with dull eyes.

The store manager is missing.

Under his gaze, he suddenly disappeared.

That situation is like turning off the lights and the projection will disappear naturally.

what is the problem?

Why is this happening?

Questions echoed in Kai's mind and set off huge waves, leaving Kai at a loss.
