Endless Debt

Boluogo felt that he had had an extremely long dream, so long that the sense of time was gradually diluted and meaningless under this huge scale.

Opening his eyes with difficulty, a huge feeling of fatigue seemed to have gripped every inch of his muscles, and even his breathing became extremely heavy. Boluogo tried to move his body, but such a simple movement consumed almost all of his energy. physical strength.

He reluctantly sat up on the bed, his lungs seemed to be weighed down by heavy stones, and breathing became a little difficult. Then Boluogo coughed painfully, and the memory returned like a tide. He remembered that he was running wildly on the Dawn, and in the Era With Wen's wish, he passed through the car doors one after another, and was finally shrouded in light...

Bologg raised his head nervously. He noticed that the place where he woke up was the room he was familiar with. In this weird game, it was not the first time that he woke up in his own home. Bologg struggled to walk. I got out of bed and opened the closed curtains with anxiety.

The warm sunshine hits the face evenly, as if a pair of gentle hands caressed Boluogo's body. Behind the floor-to-ceiling windows is no longer cold cement or strange scenery, but familiar buildings and crowded streets. The streets, and the silent obelisk-like buildings that stretch across the sky.

For the first time, Bologo realized how great it was to open the window and see the Bureau of Order.

Just as Bologg was immersed in seeing the beauty of the company he worked for at a glance, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and then Bologg saw Palmer wearing a pair of underpants and knocking open his door.

"Bo, Bo, Bologo!"

Bologg stammered nervously. After taking a few seconds to calm down, he screamed at Bologg, "We are back!"

"Irwin's wish came true!"

Palmer sat down slowly against the wall. After realizing the current situation, his mood was extremely complicated. Should he praise Asmode for unexpectedly keeping his word? Or thank Irvin for his fearlessness?

No, this has nothing to do with Asmodeus's trustworthiness. The devil himself is also bound by rules. Since she promised this, then the reality will inevitably develop like this.

"Get up, we need to identify the others."

Bologg reached out and pulled Palmer up. After a brief surprise, Bologg became serious again. He always felt that this incident would not end so easily.

To be precise, it ended simply like this, which made him feel uneasy.

After putting on his clothes, Boluogo dug into his pocket and took out the familiar Key to the Winding Path.

Asmodeus stripped them of all their belongings when they boarded the Garden, as if to fit into the story, and now that they have left the Garden, these things have returned.

The blue lines spread on Boluoge's arms, and the ether filled his body, bringing bursts of extraordinary satisfaction. The familiar silver-white snakes also crawled along the fingertips. The coldness of the metal made Boluoge feel a sense of relief. joy.

Palmer put on his clothes quickly, and Boluogo inserted the key of the winding path into the keyhole, turned the key, and opened the darkness.

Stepping into the darkness, Borogo and Palmer arrived at the Immortal Club a few seconds later. Strangely, the Immortal Club was unexpectedly deserted today, and not a single person could be seen in the bar.

Bologg guessed that the others were sleeping. Ever since Sere disappeared, the Undead Club had become quite deserted. Bologg did not stay here for too long, but borrowed the road directly from Palmer. He rushed towards the Order Bureau step by step.

When Boluogo arrived at Lebius's office in the field department, a commotion was going on in the office. When he opened the door, the small office was filled with people.

Lebius was sitting behind the desk as always, with Uriel standing beside him, Jeffrey sitting on the sofa, and next to him was Yas, the leader of the sixth team. It's Aimu Hart.

Seeing the arrival of Boluogo and Palmer, the heated conversation was quiet for a few seconds, and several pairs of eyes looked at each other back and forth. This didn't feel good until Boluogo took the lead to break the silence.

There was no joy of reunion or endless complaints. Everyone maintained their unique professional attitude and calmly analyzed the current situation.

"We... how many days have we been missing?"

Lebius looked at the calendar and said, "Two days."

Bologo said to himself, "It's only been two days?"

In the Happy Garden, he stayed for more than two days just in the rest period of the big library. Boluogo didn't know whether the Happy Garden distorted his perception of time, or whether the Happy Garden distorted the internal and external relationship. The flow rate of time in the outside world.

The devil's land seems to have the power to affect time, just like when he was forced to watch the movie by Belphegor.

Lebius looked worried and rubbed his temples vigorously. The missing team members suddenly returned and appeared in a sudden way. For Lebius, it was also a big shock.

Boluogo is an immortal, so there is no need to worry too much, but the others are different. If they are missing for a while longer, Lebius will have to consider whether to list them as martyred in the line of duty. After all, Happy Garden can be Not a gentle place.

"After you disappeared, we escorted the original thing and returned to the Bureau of Order first, and then sent other action teams to search and rescue you. However, in the past two days, there was no progress in the operation. It was like you evaporated out of thin air. "Lebius said and looked at Boluogo, "Then he suddenly returned."

"The original thing?"

Bologo noticed an important point, "In other words, didn't the original thing disappear with us?"

"No," Lebius shook his head, "Now the original thing is under the protection of the sublimation furnace core."

Jeffrey on the side said, "It's strange. I thought the attack on Happy Garden was to seize the original things, but it only took away a few of you."

This is the point that Jeffrey doesn't understand the most. For the original thing, the three parties of Zongge Band, Unbound Poetry Society, and Order Bureau are constantly fighting, and they have also involved the people of Xi Tao, leaving countless people behind. After finding Qing's body, when Happy Garden had the best chance to take away the original thing, it gave up and disappeared with these unlucky ghosts.

At this time, Hart said, "Actually, we have only arrived here not long ago, and we haven't had time to report yet."

The awakening process of Hart and Amu was not smooth. When the two suddenly appeared in the dormitory of the Bureau of Order, as if triggering some kind of alarm, the field staff quickly surrounded their rooms. In order to ensure safety, Liebi Us personally conducted a brief round of interrogation on the two men to determine the authenticity of their identities.

Immediately afterwards came the return of Bologna and Palmer. This may be because the two of them arrived at the room from outside the Order Bureau in a serious manner, but did not trigger any alarms. After all, logically speaking, their behavior is the same as... Same as usual at work.

Without any reminiscence or comfort, Boluogo sorted out his thoughts and immediately explained to Lebius their experience in the Happy Garden, from the encounter with Irwin, to Cinderella's mutation, and finally Irwin's death. wish card.

Bologna and Lebius narrated all the contents, but only concealed Belphegor's part. Most of the staff were unaware of Belphegor's existence. In order to avoid trouble, Bologna chose to go with Lebius. Bius concealed the matter together.

After integrating the information from several people, Hart, who had been in a coma before, realized what happened when he was in a coma. However, when Bologna and others asked him what he had experienced in his nightmare, Hart became He hesitated and hesitated.

Boluogo did not continue to ask further. From his previous discussion with Aimu, he could roughly guess what Hart had experienced. He did not like to do things that expose people's scars.

"In other words, that Irwin saved you?"

Even Lebius, who had experienced hundreds of battles, couldn't help but have a complicated expression after hearing the experiences of several people, especially after learning about Irwin and Asmodeus.

Dramas in which the devil seduces mortals are very common, and this kind of thing happens almost at any time, but this is the first time that Lebius has encountered a plot that can deceive the devil.

Lebius became slightly interested in Irwin, but he did not expect that the ordinary mortal on the train would have such willpower.

"Judging from the results, it's like this. He used the wishing card to release us."

After Boluogo finished speaking, he paused. He looked at Lebius suspiciously and asked, "Can you let the others leave first?"

"What's wrong?"

"I want to confirm something."

Lebius roughly understood what Boluogo meant, and he said, "Are you afraid that this is also part of the Happy Garden? You didn't really escape."

Boluogo nodded very frankly, "That's a devil with a wicked sense of humor. I'm not surprised by anything she does."

Lebius acquiesced to Bologo's behavior, and the others left in cooperation and closed the office door. Only Bologo and Lebius were left in the room.

"This incident is not that simple."

Bologo's words surprised Lebius. His distrust of Lebius was just a cover. What Bologo wanted to do was to create a scene in which he and Lebius had a private conversation.

"Belphegor is also in on the game."

Borlog recalled Irwin's words and deeds, "Belphegor seemed to have made a bet with Asmodeus, and Irwin was the core of the bet."

Hearing Belphegor's name, Lebius acted very calmly. His intervention had been expected by Lebius. After all, Lebius had already been in contact with Belphegor on the coast of the hulk. .

Belphegor and Asmodeus have been wrestling with each other for a long time, but this time the dispute between them was fully revealed.

Lebius asked, "What do they want to do?"

"I don't know," Bologo continued. "To be honest, it would be difficult to protect yourself in that situation, let alone explore the secrets of the devil."

"But you came back alive, from the Happy Garden."

There was a hint of admiration in Lebius' tone, "This is one of the great achievements. You must know that our records of the interior of Happy Garden are almost zero."

Boluogo sighed, "I understand. I will write a detailed report and give it to you later."

Sometimes, Lebius's ideas are easy to understand, simple and straightforward.

"I...I'm a little uneasy."

Boluogo was silent for a moment and told Lebius his feelings, "The devils are getting bigger and bigger, not to mention the bet between them."

Boluogo still remembered the identity of his chosen one and the disputes between the devils. Thinking of these, Boluogo began to wonder whether everything that happened in the Happy Garden was also a dispute between the devils.

"Compared to these, you might as well ask him yourself."

Bologo thought he had heard wrongly and looked at Lebius with surprise. Lebius was not kidding. He crossed his hands in front of him and proposed to Bologo in an extremely serious manner.

"Instead of thinking wildly, it's better to listen to what Belphegor said."

Burlogo questioned, "Are you sure?"

This feeling is so strange. Your boss recommended you to talk to potential enemies, but if you think about it carefully, Boluogo really has no qualifications to protest. He himself is the chosen one by the other devil.

"I'm sure, don't you also think that this incident will not end so simply?"

Lebius continued, "I don't like the devil, but when necessary, our interests do coincide."

Bologo took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and then asked, "How should I find him?"

Belphegor is hiding deep in the Bureau of Order, but under normal circumstances, he will not interfere with reality. In previous contacts, Belphegor took the initiative to contact himself.

"Maybe he's waiting for you outside the door."

Lebius said, "The Unbound Poetry Society has declined. He doesn't have much power at his disposal. Even if you don't go to him, he will take the initiative to come to you."

"It sounds like the devil is a little sad."

Boluogo murmured, "It has omnipotent power, but it requires mortals to execute it."

The devil is a prisoner, a slave to power.

Boluogo stood up and looked at Lebius, "To be honest, I don't like Belphegor."

"What's wrong?"

"I think he is a narcissist and has extremely bad taste."

Berlogo prayed that he would not be forced to watch the movie by Belphegor, who pressed his head on his head and told him that Belphegor should really go to film school to study and see how other people cut films.

Belphegor was never willing to cut out a single frame, just like his pursuit of "Endless Poems", he would collect all creations, no matter how bloated it became.

Lebius laughed, as if he had been forced to watch a movie by Belphegor. Bologger also laughed twice to himself. After the laughter, Lebius put away his smile.

"By the way, Boluogo, there is something else I want to inform you about."

"What's wrong."

Lebius picked up a document, which was information from the decision-making room, "You have done a good job, both now and before."

Borrogo asked, "What then?"

"The decision-making room has prepared materials for your next promotion. In other words, after a while, you may be able to start your promotion as a person in charge."

Lebius then added, "And from a personal perspective...welcome back."

I'll take a day off tomorrow to write and save the manuscript, and then I should be able to resume normal updates the day after tomorrow.
