Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 456 The Information Source of Alcohol Smell

Ji Shanqing made an appointment with her at the meeting place, which was in a commercial building not far from Harry's Farm. It would take less than 10 minutes to walk slowly from the "Weed Gate"——

However, Lin Sanjiu had been walking around under the night for almost two hours, passing by the gate of Harry Farm more than ten times back and forth, but he still didn't see the original building.

"Am I remembering wrong?"

She muttered to herself.

The building was probably newly built before the end of the day, so although it looked dirty and dilapidated, the overall condition was not bad; what's more, she herself stayed in the building for a week, and she clearly remembered that the building was it's here.However, at the original location of the building at this time, there is only a dark and dirty storefront with broken doors and windows; behind the store is a parking lot covered in thick black ash, no matter how you look at it, there is no evidence that the building ever existed .

If it wasn't for the symptoms of schizophrenia that had almost disappeared, Lin Sanjiu would really think that what he saw were hallucinations.

...Is there anything wrong with it?

After thinking about it, she gritted her teeth and decided to take a risk.

"Ji Shanqing—!" She raised her voice and shouted loudly, "Ji Shanqing, where are you!"

The female's long and clear voice echoed among the tall buildings and ruins, echoing faintly like the words "Ji Shanqing" on the walls of each building; but Lin Sanjiu listened carefully for a while , until her own voice completely disappeared, and there was no response from the night sky.

... Ji Shanqing seems to have disappeared suddenly.

If it is said that she is already used to "separation", then the separation from Ji Shanqing can be said to be completely unexpected by Lin Sanjiu - he is obviously her own gift bag!
What's more, he is cautious and smart, and he will never leave the building during the waiting process unless necessary.

"In all senses, he should be an item..." Lin Sanjiu tried to organize his thoughts: "What accident might happen to him?"

More importantly, when she teleports away from this world, will Ji Shanqing still go with her?
The existence of Ji Shanqing itself is a very strange thing, so she doesn't know if she can use common sense to deduce it; if he is completely equivalent to an item, then it is better to turn him into a card and forget it... Straightening up a little anxiously, Lin Sanjiu searched around the buildings a few more times, but still saw no one.

I don't know if it's consolation, but among the old broken wood, bricks, garbage and dust, she didn't see any fresh blood, or clean pieces of clothes - and Lin Sanjiu didn't get any "rewards" .

...But of course, this may also be because she "lost" the gift bag.

********.

After cursing a foul word in his heart, Lin Sanjiu found himself walking back to the shop again unknowingly.

Because there was a deep crack in the wall, the signboard hanging on the wall had fallen off, and half of it was smashed to the ground, blocking the gate, and everything that could be seen was covered with thick dirt It's gray, and you can't even tell what it's for sale.

After staring at the store and hesitating for a while, Lin Sanjiu took a few steps forward and lifted the signboard—half of the signboard slammed on the ground with a bang, stirring up dust all over the sky; With a sigh of relief, she stepped into the store.

The situation inside looks worse than outside.Half of the roof collapsed, covering the only window, preventing even a little moonlight from coming in, leaving only darkness inside the store.Amid a thick, familiar stench, Lin Sanjiu called out [Ability Polishing Agent]; the bright silver light filled half the room, and she immediately sighed inwardly in disappointment.

Although she didn't know what she was expecting, it was obvious that the rows of shelves with tobacco, wine and tea in sight were meaningless to her.

Resisting the anxiety that rose up for a moment, Lin Sanjiu turned around and walked away—but she stopped suddenly after taking half a step.

...Because the store stinks too much.

She turned around and walked slowly towards the counter in front of her.

Unopened cigarettes and alcohol will not give off this kind of smell; this smell is clearly like that emitted from every pore of a person after drinking too much alcohol and smoking too much, Thick and pungent stench...

Lin Sanjiu leaned on the counter, looked behind the counter while lowering her head, and raised the [Ability Polishing Agent] in her hand——

Probably because the eyelids were suddenly illuminated by a bright light, the unkempt, dirty, and almost dead homeless man on the ground suddenly let out a "huh", frowned tightly, and did not open his eyes. He turned his face sideways.

And the source of the stench in this store is obviously this homeless man who hasn't cleaned himself up for an unknown amount of time—a variety of empty wine bottles and cigarette cases are thrown around him, all of which seem to be fresh. It was retrieved from the store, leaving several rows of empty shelves.

Lin Sanjiu was overjoyed, moved the light closer, and hurriedly called out: "Hey! Wake up!"

The bum grunted again, scratching his ass and rolling over.

Such a carefree and undefended person can still survive in the doomsday world. This really makes Lin Sanjiu, who lives in combat alert every day and is still always on the verge of death, a little jealous—she raised her voice, pointing at The man yelled, "Wake up! Your wine is here!"

"Ah, what, what wine?" The drunk immediately raised his head, his eyelids were half closed, and his head was shaking, as if the vision in front of him was still spinning: "Give it to me."

It's hard to imagine that someone would make himself drunk like this in a dangerous place.Cursing softly, Lin Sanjiu wrapped his hands with [Protective Force Field], bent down, grabbed the man by the neck, and dragged him out from behind the counter.

"You, what are you doing!" After being dragged outside, the man suddenly remembered that he should be angry, and waved his arm, intending to pat Lin Sanjiu's hand: "... let me go!"

This amount of force hit Lin Sanjiu's hand, probably not as hard as a fly.

Just when she raised her eyebrows indifferently and was about to drag him out of the store, Lin Sanjiu felt the [Defensive Force Field] in her hand tremble a few times; Like a flashlight, the [Protective Force Field] flickered a few times with all its strength, and then went out with a snap—with its disappearance, her right hand was instantly engulfed by a cold sense of weakness.

Lin Sanjiu reflexively gave the drunk man a hard push, and immediately withdrew her hand—looking carefully with a bit of shock and anger, she found that her right hand was obviously pale compared to other parts of her body; At this time, there were blue veins on the back of his hand, as if he was screaming because he couldn't get nourishment from blood.

"One, one, huh?" The drunk tried several times before he could pronounce a questioning tone: "...didn't you get much? Ah, forget it, forget it," he waved his hand, and fell down again. After turning back, part of her voice was drowned out: "...I'm amazing, so don't bother me, your right hand will soon be filled with blood again..."

What he said was true—Lin Sanjiu could feel that the blood rushing to her right hand was rushing through her veins at this moment; in her slightly terrified eyes, her right hand gradually regained its blood color.

The ability of this person...

Lin Sanjiu glanced warily at the man lying on the ground like a bug, and then scanned around.

Just now, she was so happy because she found a living clue that she didn't realize that none of the empty wine bottles on the ground had been opened.

Her behavior just now seemed to be a bit abrupt.

Lin Sanjiu took two steps back, squatted down far away, and slowed down his tone towards the drunk man: "...I don't want to hurt you, I just want to ask you about something."

The limp man raised his head, revealing a pair of blurred and unfocused eyes—the eyes and nose were probably the only things she could see clearly. The rest of his face was covered with dirty, long, thick and tangled hair. The hair and beard are completely hidden.

"How long have you been in this store? Do you remember when you came in?" Lin Sanjiu spoke quickly, but the more he spoke, the less sure he understood her, "...you came in At that time, was there a dark blue building near here? This is very important to me."

The drunk man hiccupped and touched his pockets; under her expectant eyes, he took out a crumpled cigarette, stuck it in his bushy beard, and lit it up Lighter.

"I said," he took a deep breath of the cigarette, and then blew a smoke ring straight in her direction, with some slurred words. "...this, uh, you're the lady; before answering your questions, I'd rather accomplish another life goal of mine—it seems more likely to happen after all."

"What, what?" Lin Sanjiu was taken aback.

"...died of alcohol poisoning."

As soon as he finished speaking, the drunk man fell backwards on his back and hit the floor with a slam—as if he didn't feel any pain at all, and he slowly exhaled another puff of smoke.

Lin Sanjiu stood up vigorously, a fire had already ignited in her heart.

The drunk man lay on the floor with a cigarette in his mouth and raised his hand, waving at her: "...Oh, are you leaving now? Bye."

For such a person, I am afraid that anyone who looks at it will have a headache.

Sure enough, the tall woman paused for a few seconds, and then the sound of her footsteps could be heard; in the sound of gradually walking away, the drunk took a cigarette lazily, but didn't wait to put it in his mouth. When the smoke came out, he frowned.

The sound of footsteps was a bit strange - not only did the woman not leave directly, but instead stopped after a few steps, it was accompanied by some inexplicable noise...

The drunk smacked his lips, reluctantly raised his heavy head, and then froze.

"You, what are you doing...?"

In his alcohol-drenched gaze, Lin Sanjiu, who was standing not far away, showed his white teeth.

"What do you mean?" Lin Sanjiu tilted his head, as if he didn't quite understand what he meant.It's just that her movements didn't slow down at all, she took two steps forward, and she put her hand on a cabinet—almost like an illusion, the cabinet that reached the ceiling and was filled with all kinds of foreign wine It suddenly disappeared into the air.

Even dropping the cigarette from his mouth, the drunk got up with all his hands and feet, his bloodshot eyes widened before: "Ah...you, you..."

"As enthusiastic as you are," Lin Sanjiu gritted his teeth, said with a smile, and put his hand on another cabinet: "Sir, you are so helpful, I can't bear to let you die of alcoholism. These things will be kept by me.”

"No, don't," the drunk staggered and rushed up—not for Lin Sanjiu, but for the wine cabinet: "At least don't take my bourbon!"

"What is bourbon?"

Lin Sanjiu tilted his head, moved his hand, and the wine cabinet disappeared in an instant; the drunk couldn't hold back, and hit the wall with a "bang".Before the other party got up from the wall, she had already sped up her movements. In the blink of an eye, she had already cleared out the entire store and quickly retreated to the door.

"Ah?" The drunk stared around in a daze. Even with only one pair of eyes, he showed his grief: "Tea? You left me tea?"

"Oh, it seems so."

"You, you...you don't smoke or drink at all!"

"That's right," Lin Sanjiu shrugged, "I'm going to pour the wine out and use the bottle for other things; the cigarettes... just throw it into any river."

Her words seemed to be more painful than whipping, the drunk man bent down, "ho ho" took a few breaths, and then waved his hands as if admitting defeat: "... okay, okay, what do you want to ask?"

This attitude is quite satisfactory——Lin Sanjiu nodded, and walked out the door: "Come out and talk."

As if hating the fresh air, as soon as he walked out the door, the moment the moonlight fell on his shoulders, the drunk suddenly let out a sound of disgust; but the next second, he suddenly froze for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Lin Sanjiu, who had been observing him with his arms folded, couldn't help but mention it in his heart.

The drunk man didn't answer, but looked around first.

"I... Where am I?" He scratched his beard vigorously, and then sighed sullenly. "...Why don't I remember that it's like this around here... Could it be that I really drank too much wine?"

"The piece of green in the distance is a copy——Harry's farm, do you have any impression?" Lin Sanjiu asked softly, holding back her heartbeat that was getting faster and faster.

"Impossible," the drunk immediately shook his head, "I swear by Qing Jiuliu's name, when I entered this store, there was absolutely no copy around here."

Lin Sanjiu's heart sank.

...The location of the building and the smoking hotel have been switched.
