Star Trace Gate

Chapter 27

This small theater is not big, and the interior decoration is very old and simple, but the dressing room is still clean and tidy, and there is no peculiar smell.

Mr. He was sitting at the dressing table, holding an eyebrow pencil and carefully outlining his makeup.

Judging from his appearance, he should be singing the role of Tsing Yi in Peking Opera.

After a while, two young men, a man and a woman, walked into the dressing room and shouted respectfully: "Mr. He."

The boy standing on the left is about 25 or 26 years old, with a strong build and strong cheek lines, and is very handsome.

Next to him, there was a slim, pretty girl, wearing a pure black dress, her pretty face was gloomy, and her eyes were a little hollow.

This pair of men and women who look very similar to each other, one is named Xing Tao and the other is named Guo Caier, both are members of the Bell Club.

In addition, Guo Caier is also the daughter of Wang Hong. She and Xing Tao are also secret players of the Qingliang Mansion Star Gate.

Previously, the two real-life teammates that Wang Hong could not betray were these two. As we all know, before the Qingliang Mansion Star Gate was opened, there were two star gates that were "paving the way" for its preliminary tasks. It was during these two preliminary tasks that the Bell Club obtained three entry tokens and selected them. These three people entered.

But what I didn't expect was that in the first act, Wang Hong, who was responsible for collecting team information, was killed directly.

"My mother is dead, that King Huai must be a player." Guo Caier stood on the right and said in a low tone, but there was not much sadness on her cheeks.

"My condolences...!" Mr. He replied calmly: "You should prepare for the next entry. I will take care of the rest."

"In reality, if you find a player who plays King Huai, just kill him." Xing Tao interjected very bluntly: "I will take a few people to do it, and I will ensure that his death is worse than that of the president who pulled his pants... …!”

Mr. He turned back slowly and looked at him calmly: "The first priority for you and Cai'er is to successfully pass Qingliang Mansion and obtain the extremely rare inheritance there. This is more important than your lives, do you understand?"

Xing Tao looked at the other party's eyes, swallowed unconsciously, and nodded slightly.

"Mr. He, what do you want to do?" Guo Caier asked softly.

"According to your description, the perspective of the character King Huai is too high, and he has a strong identity and ability, and he is definitely not in the court camp. Now that we have lost a dark player, you will not be able to control the overall situation in the future." Mr. He turned Turning around, with his face facing the mirror, he tapped the lipstick box with his index finger and began to apply it evenly on his lips: "If players kill each other, they can get each other's entry token. If this person is killed by us , then next time we open the door, we can enter four people, and one of them is King Huai... This way the situation will be much more stable."

"I don't know yet whether Star Gate players who are not from Qingliang Mansion will get the opponent's token after killing 'King Huai'." Guo Caier reminded.

"Then bring him back and let you kill him." Mr. He shrugged and said, "It's safer this way..."

"Can you find him in reality?" Guo Caier asked clearly.

"In the two preliminary missions of the Star Gate, we killed three New Year's Watchers and tricked one to death." Mr. He chuckled and replied: "In the end, the person who was tricked to death actually used a corpse to lead the way. He left with the token, and the token... was a pen."

Guo Caier made it clear: "After I entered the house, I received a task from the court. I am currently helping Emperor Jing in Kyoto to lay out the tomb of the princess of the previous dynasty. From my perspective, the old emperor did give Zhu Zigui an imperial pen..."

"Yes, I have read the report you wrote." Mr. He put on his crown and stood up slowly: "The imperial pen is the entry token of King Huai, so King Huai must be played by the old man. I sent someone to inquire, This player should be in Shanghai... you go, I will take eight copper bells with me."

Guo Caier was silent for a long time: "Please, we must capture 'King Huai'."

Mr. He turned around, held his orchid finger, and asked in a playful tone: "The pain of killing one's mother is irreconcilable?"

"Ha." Guo Caier sneered: "We have severed the relationship between mother and daughter. What I want to say is...if we can successfully kill King Huai, then no one in the star gate of Qingliang Mansion can compete with us."

"Hey, yeah, yeah...!"

Mr. He hummed in a playful tone, flicked his sleeves, and walked towards the door with small steps: "I am pregnant in ten months, and how should I repay my family for the kindness of raising me?"

Guo Caier stood there blankly, saying nothing.

Xing Tao was silent for a long time and then said decisively: "Cai'er, please forgive me... If you feel uncomfortable, just beat me and give me two slaps..."

"Let's go." Guo Caier walked away.

Five minutes later, the theater curtain slowly opened, and a sporadic middle-aged and elderly audience ate fruit plates and looked towards the stage.

Mr. He wore a green robe, opened up his posture, and sang eloquently: "Dear readers, the show is about to begin...!"

Outside the door, the sly-eyed guy who was in charge of serving Mr. He took the phone and said: "Have you contacted the player who sells information about the Daqian Dynasty? Oh, okay, you can tell him, he can set the price as he pleases, cash , or Xingyuan. Yes, we will go to the Shanghai Stock Exchange tonight and trade face to face..."

……

The next morning.

Ren Ye woke up faintly, still very tired and lacking in energy. It wasn't until he drank two bowls of the leftover turtle soup from yesterday that he felt much better.

It seems that the sequelae of the princess's ultimate move will continue for some time. Isn’t my lifespan really going to be shortened if I ride a horse?

Ren also stayed at home alone, feeling a little uneasy.

"Dip Lingling!"

A phone rang.

"Hello?" Ren also answered the call smoothly: "Who is this?"

"I'm Xu Peng from yesterday, do you remember?" A slow voice sounded.

"Oh, remember. What's wrong, brother?" Ren also instantly remembered the other person's dull expression.

"I'm downstairs at your house. The boss asked me to pick you up." Xu Peng replied: "Today I am responsible for telling you some knowledge about the Star Gate."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll be right away." Ren also put down the soup bowl and went straight to the bedroom.

……

In the morning, around nine o'clock, in an ordinary office at No. 88 Lianhu Road.

Xu Peng sat on a chair with a large pile of information and asked politely: "You look very bad. Do you want some medicine?"

"...No, thank you." Huang Wei specifically told Ren Ye last night not to eat whatever Xu Peng gave him.

The two sat opposite each other. Xu Peng scratched his chicken coop-like head, took out a bag of Chinese medicine from under the table, and drank it in front of Ren Ye.

"What are you drinking?" Ren Ye asked curiously.

"I made a homemade decoction that nourishes yin and nourishes the kidneys." Xu Peng chirped and said with unfinished meaning, "I added too little fire centipede, and the taste is a bit bland...!"

When Ren heard this, his stomach churns: "Is this thing really useful?"

When Xu Peng heard this, he felt that his professionalism was being questioned, and his face turned ugly: "No one can make medicine more targeted than mine. Before, the boss drank a bag of decoction and stayed in a club in the south of the city for two full days. sky."
