Arknights, reincarnated as a cat

Lapland drove to a small town seventy kilometers away from Tremont.

In an era when countries are scrambling to build mobile cities, such large-scale settlement towns are no longer common.

This type of town is often wiped out in the long history of mankind due to a sudden natural disaster, leaving only the survivors longing for their former hometown.

If there are enough good scholars, such annihilated towns may still leave a detectable ripple in history.

The architecture of this town is not that old, but its style is relatively old. At first glance, it gives people the illusion that this town has existed for a long time.

But if you look twice, you will find that this town is full of hotels, casinos, and bathing centers.

On the streets, you can still see some luxury cars passing by from time to time.

It seems that this place is also popular among wealthy people.

Lapland drove the car into an alley, took off his coat, took out a set of waiter's clothes from the glove compartment of the car and put them on.

She touched Li Xia's head, pointed to a building not far away and said, "Little guy, you can't stay on my shoulder anymore. I'm going to get something from them. You wait here for me." ,How about it?"

Li Xia first looked up at the building she was pointing to, then nimbly jumped on Lapland's head and lay down, and soon turned into a pile.

Lapland also felt a cool gel texture on his head, and it seemed that he was still holding his hair.

After a while, there was no movement above.

"brat?"

She asked tentatively and received a "meow" in reply.

Lapland reached out and touched his hair, then turned the motorcycle's rearview mirror over and looked at himself in the rearview mirror.

Maomao turned into a black bow, and she was tied into a neat single ponytail.

She straightened her bangs again and nodded to herself in the rearview mirror.

"Well, not bad."

Then he walked to a small door behind the building with the same pace as 2,580,000 and pushed the door open.

"Aren't the cold dishes for the VIP table ready yet?"

"Why hasn't Mr. Simon ordered the feathered animal liver and sent it over?"

"The smoked pork belly is ready! Who will deliver it to you?"

The shouts of the waiters and chefs, the sizzling of hot oil and ingredients, and the clinking of tableware all reflect the busyness of the kitchen.

Lapland, who opened the door and walked in, took a look at the busy and slightly chaotic kitchen, and his eyes fell on a table knife.

Recently, she felt that table knives were quite handy as weapons, and when she was about to pick one up, she was suddenly grabbed by a man wearing the uniform of a sergeant.

"Hey! You! Send this smoked beef to Mr. Simon's guest room! Mr. Simon's guest room is on the third floor, the first room on the right! When you get to the banquet hall, you can see the stairs leading upstairs."

The room that the attendant mentioned was exactly where Lapland wanted to go.

Lapland's ears twitched, and when she reached halfway, she naturally turned her hand to take the dinner plate and nodded towards this person.

"Ok sir."

From the moment Lapland received the dinner plate, he entered the state of playing waiter.

Holding the dinner plate in one hand, she avoided the other waiters who came to take the meal in the kitchen, left the kitchen, and went straight to the banquet hall.

Along the way, Li Xia saw that there were city dwellers with bright clothes and trendy tastes, as well as robust pioneers with dusty clothes.

The two distinct types of people from Weijing are enjoying themselves here, which seems a little weird.

"Here is a banquet held by some wealthy people who invested in the pioneer team. Did you see those people dressed like pioneers?"

Lapland pointed with his chin at the pioneers who were drinking and eating meat.

"They all have a fairly low status in their respective pioneering teams. They have reached cooperation with the rich and will inform these rich people of the information gained by the team during the development, in order to earn some profits, and the rich will Will use this information to earn more benefits, which can be said to be a win-win situation.

And although these pioneer teams nominally belong to Colombian companies, in essence, they are labor dispatch.

When they die outside, these companies will refuse to pay compensation on the grounds that they are dispatched laborers and not employees of the company.

It is also difficult for labor service companies to pay compensation, and they often leave a mess after declaring bankruptcy.

As a result, these pioneer teams made more profits by cooperating with these rich people.

Most people know that there is no essential difference between working in the pioneer team and being a mercenary or killer. Moreover, for most people, the wilderness is more terrifying than the same kind. In order to increase the chance of survival, you need to purchase better equipment. Protective equipment, so this behavior of eating both ends is very common among pioneer teams. "

After listening to Lapland's explanation, Li Xia understood why the two groups were mixed together.

But why does LaPland know so much about the Pioneers?

Li Xia suddenly remembered that after returning from Syracuse, Lapland lost contact for several months.

Even if Li Xia secretly used the name of Texas to send a message to a courier in Rhode Island, she was not contacted.

It now appears that she has been wandering around in the wilderness for a while.

One person and one cat chatted quietly and came to the door of Mr. Simon's room on the third floor.

Just when she was about to knock on the door, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her body, causing her to stumble and the smoked beef in her hand almost fell to the ground.

She held on to the wall, took a few breaths, and forced a twisted smile on her face covered in cold sweat.

"Huh...heh, at this time..."

"What's wrong?"

A line of text composed of water vapor appeared before her eyes.

She took a deep breath, took out her handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat on her face, and then gently touched Li Xia, whose head turned into a bow.

"It's a small problem. It's okay. By the way, little guy, can you help me get the sweat off my face?"

After Li Xia made her face dry again, Lapland knocked on the door.

After waiting for a few seconds and the person inside answered, she opened the door and walked in.

"Hello, Mr. Simon, this is the smoked pork belly you ordered."

Mr. Simon looked as if he had just gone through some exercise. His expensive clothes were full of wrinkles and looked a little ill-fitting.

And there was an expression on his face that he didn't expect a waiter to come to deliver the food at this time.

"Uh...Okay, let's put it on the table first."

After saying that, he took out a few folded banknotes with some curled edges from his pocket and placed them on the dinner plate.

"you can go now."

But Lapland stood motionless, looking at Simon with a smile on his face.

"Huh? Why aren't you leaving yet?"

Simon saw Lapland looking at him with a professional smile, and was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

"Does this waiter think I paid too little?"

He hurriedly touched his pockets, took out a few banknotes from the inner pocket of his clothes, and placed them on Lapland's plate with some pain.

"Why do the waiters here require such high tips? And they refuse to leave even if they don't tip well enough?"

At this time, "Simon" was very angry. He once again experienced personally that the life of the rich was a luxury that he could not imagine at all.

And if you look closely, you can see that the waitress is also quite good-looking.

In his poor and not long life, this was the only beauty he had seen up close.

"Forget it, just think of it as spending money to see beautiful women. It's really unlucky. An accident happened before we even started searching!"

After the second tip was placed on the waiter's plate, the waitress in front of him said something that made him feel chills.

"Where is the real Mr. Simon?"

"Simon" trembled and immediately stepped back toward the window.

But after he blinked, he found that the waitress was gone, and then everything went dark.

puff.

"Simon" fell to the ground.

Lapland wiped the sweat from his forehead, squatted down with some confusion, touched his face, and then pinched hard under his earlobe, which immediately turned out a layer of skin.

After tearing along the skin, a human skin mask with a small amount of silicone filling was torn off.

"Hey, a human skin mask?"

Throwing the mask on the ground, she stood up and pushed the bedroom door open a crack.

I saw the real Mr. Simon stripped naked, tied up and thrown on the bed, with tape still on his mouth.

Around his neck hung a metal pendant.

This pendant is exactly what Lapland needs to bring back during this trip.

When a man dressed as a waiter opened the door, the subdued Mr. Simon immediately began to scream.

"Mr. Simon, right?"

Lapland stood outside the door and asked, enduring the pain in his body.

The gagged Mr. Simon nodded at first, but then began to shake his head desperately.

Because he saw the waitress outside the door, with an indescribable twisted smile on her face.
