I'm not a theatre god

"Do you want to get off the car?" The driver was stunned and asked cautiously,

"Do you have somewhere else to go? You can tell me and I will take you there..."

"No need." Chen Ling said calmly, "I want to walk around in this city."

"...Yes, then I will have your belongings delivered to you first. Don't worry."

The car passed through a street and finally stopped slowly at an intersection. Chen Ling got out of the car and watched the motorcade full of banknotes go away.

It was late at night, and there was no one on the street. Only the uncertain street lights cast dark yellow light and shadow on the road. Chen Ling put her hands in the pockets of her windbreaker, stepped into nothingness, and walked step by step towards the narrow path behind her.

…

"Damn, they're catching up!!"

Jian Changsheng looked back and saw a few black shadows passing through the deserted streets, gritted his teeth and spoke.

At this moment, both he and the 9 of Hearts have their skills blocked, and can only rely on pure physical fitness to escape, but the few behind him obviously possess the divine way. If this continues, it is almost inevitable that they will be caught!

"Eahahahahahaha!!"

"Can you stop laughing?!" Jian Changsheng slapped the 9 of hearts with his backhand, and suddenly felt a little pain in his hand.

Is this guy... so tough-skinned?

The 9 of Hearts finally stopped laughing wildly. Not only was there no fear in his eyes, but he became more and more excited, "If they chase us, then we will run! If we are caught up, we will die with them at worst!"

"Now that we can't use our Shinto, why should we die together with them?!"

Jian Changsheng quickly scanned the surroundings with his peripheral vision and locked onto a complicated old alleyway. He grabbed the 9 of hearts next to him and said, "Follow me!"

The two of them dived into the alleyway.

Five figures rushed to the entrance of the alley one after another. They were all bodyguards of the two major consortiums, Dinglu and Beidou. At this moment, they met head-on. They looked at each other coldly, as if they were hesitating whether to kill each other.

There are often frictions between the five major consortiums. As Shinto owners who have been trained by their respective consortiums for several years, they have had some disputes before. Some people were defeated by the people on the opposite side, and some of their companions were secretly killed by the people on the opposite side... Even though Now that they are temporarily freed from the control of the consortium, they will never join forces easily, let alone be willing to share the bounty with each other.

"Whoever kills first will count." Finally, an older bodyguard spoke coldly, breaking the deadlock.

"Huh, let's do it according to our abilities."

As soon as the words fell, the five people immediately divided into a group of two and a group of three. They entered the alleyway from two different directions and followed the direction where Jian Changsheng and the two escaped just now.

This seems to be an almost abandoned slum. The gaps between the walls are very narrow. Basically, each road can only accommodate one person. The roads are complicated and most of the street lights cannot light up. Under the dark night sky, it looks like a huge building. maze.

After everyone got into this neighborhood, no one noticed that under the dark night sky, a black windbreaker was standing silently in the void.

Chen Ling stood above the block, as if his whole person was integrated into the night. Even if someone deliberately looked in this direction, it would be extremely difficult to distinguish his presence... But from his angle, he could clearly overlook the block. Everything that happened.

A faint blue light fainted from his pupils. Under the urging of the [Secret Eye], Chen Ling locked onto Jian Changsheng and the two who were running away frantically, as well as several bodyguards who were gradually approaching them.

"...It's really going to cause trouble." Chen Ling sighed.

He took out a stack of sticky notes from his pocket, took out a pen he carried with him, and gently took off the pen cap...

The tip of the pen touched the surface of the note, and the ink as deep as night spread silently along the fibers of the paper. With a thought, a line of small words was written on the note like a flowing stream.

[At dawn, the mist gradually rises]

…

"It's getting foggy?"

Jian Changsheng, who was walking quickly through the narrow street, felt the faint mist floating in front of his eyes, and a touch of joy appeared in his eyes.

Fog means that the vision is blocked, and coupled with the dim sky, it will become more difficult for the group of people to track them. It seems that his luck is not irreversibly bad, at least God is still helping him.

As the two of them continued to go deeper, a tall gray-black wall stood in front of them, like the outer wall of an abandoned steel factory, completely blocking their way, leaving only two narrow intersections to the left and right.

"A fork in the road?" Jian Changsheng was stunned and subconsciously pointed to the left, "Shall we go left?"

"Okay! Then go to the right!" The 9 of Hearts firmly pulled Jian Changsheng and got into the narrow road on the right without saying a word.

"Why???"

"I can see that your luck is really bad. Just being close to you will make you unlucky." 9 of Hearts cursed, "Anyway, just do the opposite of what you said!"

Jian Changsheng:......

Although helpless, Jian Changsheng seemed unable to refute. His luck had always been terrible.

The two of them left for only ten seconds before a group of people followed them to this fork in the road. They were the three people from the Beidou Consortium. They glanced left and right, seeming to hesitate:

"Why are these two guys running so fast..."

"They don't seem to have any Shinto. They are just ordinary people. As long as they catch up, they will definitely be able to defeat them easily."

"But none of us are good at tracking... We'll have to rely on intuition this time."

"Which way are we going?"

"Go to the right, I don't like that side."

"Okay, then on the right."

Just when the three of them were about to go to the right, a black shadow in the sky gently tore off a note.

[△An old bolt fell off from the rotten equipment. The unbalanced force of the equipment gradually collapsed the bracket, and finally fell from mid-air, making a crisp sound on the ground, which immediately attracted the attention of the pursuer]

boom--!

A loud noise suddenly came from the street on the left.

"No, over there!" One of the bodyguards immediately turned around and rushed straight to the street on the left, and the other two quickly followed.

Seeing the three people being attracted in the opposite direction, Chen Ling in the air was extremely calm, as if he had expected all this. He crumpled the scrap paper in his hand into a ball and looked in another direction.

Between the dilapidated buildings, two figures were seen leaping swiftly over the top of the building, approaching Jian Changsheng and the others at an alarming speed...

"I'm going to be caught up..." Chen Ling narrowed her eyes and started writing on the note quickly again.
