Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 2071 The price of completing this section of the road

It wasn't until the door lock made a "click" sound from the skinny hand, and a widening skylight gradually opened in the crack of the door, that Lin Sanjiu finally had a sense of reality: this is not a dungeon. A trick, she was really able to leave the barber shop.

"Let's go," the barber creature stepped back, as if he didn't like being exposed to the sunlight from the doorway. "You can come back another day when I go to work."

Who will come again?

Lin Sanjiu didn't even want to nod in response to the story, and approached the door stiffly, and suddenly remembered something, and quickly turned to look at his forehead in the mirror—the barber creature seemed to understand what she meant, and felt very He waved his hands boringly and said, "The haircut is not finished, it won't stick well, and it will fall off automatically in a few minutes."

Only then did Lin Sanjiu release the breath that had been pent up in his chest.She didn't want to see the thick black hair on her forehead every time she looked in the mirror for the rest of her life.

She stepped into the bright and warm sunshine outside, and couldn't help squinting her eyes; behind her, the door of the barber shop slammed shut, bringing the shop into darkness again.

Compared with more than half an hour ago, nothing in the alley has changed.The bed sheets and clothes on the clothesline in the distance were still fluttering slightly in the sun, occasionally revealing the figure of a mime, and then covering him again—Lin Sanjiu's heart fell back into his stomach : Great, he didn't disappear or lie down, which probably means that she came out in time.

"It's strange," Teacher Yi said in a low voice, "You have already left the barber shop, but your body movements are still limited by the mime's fifteen movements... You still can't do other movements."

Maybe we have to wait until we have "traveled" this road before we can return to normal?
Just when Lin Sanjiu was about to walk towards the mime performers, the wooden door of the grocery store opposite the alley was suddenly knocked open; In the dimly lit storefront, I saw the back of a familiar head.

At this time, Pan Cui was facing the door with her back, holding a broom in front of her with both hands, and while quickly sweeping the ground, she stepped back, while she seemed to be staring at something on the ground in the depths of the store, even looking back. There is no time to see how far you are from the door.

Even if she couldn't make a sound, Lin Sanjiu could see how nervous Pan Cui was just from the back.

I really don't know what kind of weird situation she encountered in the grocery store, so she had to step back while sweeping the floor... But since the doors of the grocery store are all open, it means that Pan Cui can also leave successfully in all likelihood Bar?

Lin Sanjiu could feel the warm joy in her heart, and when it floated on her cheeks, it turned into a mime's ridiculously exaggerated smile; in order not to scare Pan Cui, she quickly stopped laughing , quickened a few steps and walked towards the grocery store.

Because of the light and distance, she couldn't see clearly what was in the grocery store, so she firmly grasped Pan Cui's attention on the floor deep in the store; but after she walked up a few steps, Lin Sanjiu suddenly realized On to another thing.

Grocery stores are different from barbershops, and there is a shelf outside the door, which is full of listless and wilted fruits and vegetables.When Pan Cui came out of the door backwards, she would definitely have passed the fruit and vegetable shelf, which wasn't a problem in the first place—if the wrinkled orange didn't move suddenly.

Lin Sanjiu almost suspected that he had misread it, and quietly took a step towards the fruit and vegetable shelf.

The orange tilted slightly, as if something had protruded from the bottom, and then fell back to its original position.Before she could see exactly what had jostled the orange, more oranges, cucumbers, bananas, and vegetables nearby were all shaking slightly, like a small, silent earthquake that only affected the vegetable shelf. .

"What the hell...?" Teacher Yi couldn't use the [Consciousness Scanning], and was at a loss at this time, "Just now on the fruit and vegetable shelf——"

When Pan Cui backed out of the door and happened to approach the fruit and vegetable shelf, Lin Sanjiu finally understood what was wrong.

Because Pan Cui kept her head down, she seemed to be focusing all her attention on the ground, so she also lowered her gaze subconsciously—then she discovered the "bulges" rolling towards Pan Cui on the ground.

It is said to be "bulges", but they are almost invisible and colorless. When they rush over the fruit and vegetable shelf, it is like the wooden board of the fruit and vegetable shelf has been scalded, and there are pieces of bulging and raised pits; they are like waves. It continued to pour down, and when it flowed to the ground, it looked like a skin disease on the stone road.

In any case, their target was very clear: it was Pan Cui, whose back was defenseless against them.

"No. 12 movements," Teacher Yi yelled in his mind suddenly: "You have never used No. 12 movements in the barber shop!"

Lin Sanjiu had already tore off his boots, and before he could make a sound, he grabbed his boots and slapped desperately on the "skin disease" on the ground.

She didn't know whether hitting with the soles of the shoes could restrain this weird thing; it's just that those "bulges" seemed to hate being hit by boots very much, and every time they landed on the ground, they would deter a small piece of the ground. blank.

Pan Cui had already turned her head when she heard the voice; she had experienced the grocery store herself, and she understood it with a glance at this moment, and immediately threw away the broom and turned vigorously towards the direction of the mime Eyeball, ran over with a straight leg.

Although the two of them could not speak, Lin Sanjiu understood what she meant at this moment, and before he even had time to put on his shoes, he simply followed her with one boot and one sock, and rushed into the clothesline together— The mime was slowly letting go of a yawn when the two jumped in front of him.

He looked at the two of them, raised his hands, and slowly clapped their hands.

Is this...congratulations to them for completing the zero-meter road?

Lin Sanjiu's thoughts just came up when he saw the mime actor pointing at the bottom of the notice board.She almost forgot that she still had chips to take, so she quickly touched the sign and picked up the chips she had returned and deserved from the ground.

"Ah, I can talk." After Pan Cui also took the chips, she seemed a little surprised, and gasped, "It was really thanks to you just now! If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been in that grocery store." mile, let alone finish the road."

Lin Sanjiu waved his hand, replied "No no no" in embarrassment, and looked back.They successfully ran in front of the mime, which seemed to mean "stop". At this time, the grocery store closed its doors again, and there was silence on the floor and on the fruit and vegetable shelves.

"The things on this road are so annoying," Pan Cui wiped the sweat from her brow, her face still pale. "In that grocery store...it's disgusting..."

"I came out of the barber shop." Lin Sanjiu shivered with deep empathy, "Really, it's also disgusting."

"Hey, don't say that."

When the voice sounded, both of them froze.They blinked at each other twice, then slowly turned their heads towards the direction of the source of the sound.

While massaging his facial muscles, the mime said absently: "These neighbors who do business are very diligent. Besides, didn't you succeed in the end?"

"You...you can talk?" Lin Sanjiu still couldn't believe it.

"I can leave work when I feel tired, and I can talk after get off work. I'm not born dumb." The mime said and yawned again. "Since you have completed the road, I will send you to the next section now, and then rest."

"Wait," Lin Sanjiu reacted with a jolt, "Where's Pina? Is she here?"

The mime shrugged. "She's still at the neighbor's house and hasn't come out yet."

"Where is it?" Lin Sanjiu's heart tightened, and he asked urgently, "She came with us, we have to go together."

"How can there be such a reason?" The mime actor raised his eyelids, looked at her, turned the notice board over, tapped the explanatory text, and reprimanded: "The prompts and conditions are clearly stated. People, you may not be able to go out at the same time. You can stay if you want, I will take her away, and you will wait for that girl alone. Make it clear in advance that my next work time will be 24 hours later."

No wonder the evolutionaries failed as soon as the staff got tired—Lin Sanjiu choked on his words, and Pan Cui hurriedly grabbed her wrist.

"Don't argue with him, we can't compete with the dungeon NPC." Pan Cui whispered, "As long as Pina doesn't get caught by the dungeon, as long as she can walk back to this road, she should be fine... But, She will definitely not be able to leave this road for 24 hours, and she will be sent back to the rooftop."

"That's right," said the mime, nodding his head. "Listen, that's what a reasonable man would say."

Although emotionally, it is uncomfortable to give up a companion who has not caught up, but intellectually, Lin Sanjiu also knows that she has no choice.As if she suddenly lost a lot of strength, she bent down, put her hands on her knees, and let out a long sigh.

Pan Cui stretched out her arms, gently wrapped her shoulders around her, and stroked her shoulders comfortingly a few times.

"Pina has good observation skills and quick reactions, so she will be fine." She said softly, "Let's go together for the rest of the journey."

"En." Lin Sanjiu was grateful for her kindness in his heart. He was about to straighten up, but when he raised his head, he accidentally hung his hair on Pan Cui's cuff; Just like a child, he was busy and flustered and yelled a few times before finally freeing Lin Sanjiu's head - after this little episode, Lin Sanjiu also somewhat recovered his composure.

The mime had grown impatient for a long time, and urged the two to follow his footsteps, twisting and turning in the alley, and when they finally walked out of the alley, they found that the mime led them to the side of a wide road superior.

"Here," the mime pointed to the bus stop on the side of the road, "this is the stop where the next section of the road begins."

　When I was looking for the content of the anti-theft chapter, I opened the early chapters of the end and looked at it. It felt like it was written by another person... Among other things, people were dying every day in the plot at that time. Why did I just write it casually? Write down so many people to death.

The longer I write about the end of the day, the more I seem to realize the weight of human life. Now I won’t write murder plots lightly... Especially the protagonist group, I think unless the plot is forced to that point, the protagonist group seems to be real. You can't/should raise your hand and kill.Puppeteer, what about you?
