Mountains and seas close at hand

In the early morning, Nanjing City has receded from the hustle and bustle of the day, showing the tranquility and desolation of a thousand-year-old capital.

On the bright street, the speeding vehicles and scattered pedestrians are all in such a hurry.The sycamore trees standing on both sides of the road for decades have long been accustomed to this day-to-day scene. They chat leisurely in the wind and occasionally shake off a fallen leaf.

The withered and yellow leaves happened to fall on the windshield, and before the wipers were activated, they disappeared without a trace in an instant.On the dashboard of the car, the seconds on the digital screen jumped up and down, and finally came up with a whole number.

"Twenty past one." Song Banyan glanced at the timetable and looked forward, "Time is like the wind, but tonight is so long."

"En." Bai Xunhua shrank back on the seat, and responded softly.The effect of the painkiller gradually faded, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

Song Banyan noticed this keenly, her lips moved slightly, but she didn't say anything.

Human pride is a strange thing.It is proud, it is humble, it is sometimes indestructible, and sometimes fragile.

Words of comfort were on the tip of his tongue, but Song Banyan chose to shut up.A voice in her heart told her: don't say, don't say, act as if you don't know.

Song Banyan picked the steering wheel, and said as if nothing had happened: "There is surveillance in the pharmacy, and Pan Xiaohong leaves work at 08:30. If it was me, I would definitely not wait until midnight to deliver the goods."

Bai Xunhua unscrewed the mineral water bottle, and quietly put the painkiller into his mouth.She swallowed the medicine, and seeing that Song Banyan didn't notice it, she immediately said with peace of mind: "Yes, as long as you avoid Pan Xiaohong. Even if you start from the suburbs, you should arrive at the pharmacy in two or three hours."

Song Banyan's back molars were clenched together fiercely, as if to vent some emotion.

Bai Xunhua didn't know that her heart was overwhelmed, and continued to analyze: "Departure at nine o'clock must arrive at twelve o'clock. But if the other party has more than one store, but only one warehouse, and only one car is sent along the way to deliver goods at a time, then the time I can’t say for sure.”

Song Banyan stepped on the brakes and stopped at the opposite side of the alley.The entrance to the deep alley is lonely and crowded among a row of shops.During the day, it is quiet amidst the hustle and bustle, but at night it looks a little gloomy.

The alley on the opposite side of the street is like a mysterious entrance often accompanied by adventures in anime, leading to an unknown, fantasy and dangerous world.The old wall lamp on the wall exudes a dim light, as if luring the flying butterflies to the fire.

Song Banyan pulled up the handbrake, and said with a light smile, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch a tiger's cub."

The carved red lacquered door was closed tightly, and the room was pitch black except for the gloomy light of the tablet computer.The little green dot was getting closer and closer, and finally stopped at the street at the entrance of the alley.

Zhu Yan squeezed his fist and said in a low voice, "They're here."

The other three also looked tense, and the man in the suit pointed to the left and right: "You two lie in ambush behind the door, and when they come in, they will be caught immediately."

"Yes."

The man in the suit picked up the tablet on the ground, and was about to turn off the screen, but saw the little green dot staying where it was, motionless.The gloomy green light emitted by the tablet made the man in the suit even more terrifying than Zhu Yan, and he had a puzzled expression on his smiling Buddha-like face.

Zhu Yan had already stood up, and asked in displeasure, "What's wrong?"

The man in the suit swiped his finger to zoom in on the map, looked at the solid green dot and said, "They didn't get out of the car."

Zhu Yanman waved his hand indifferently: "If they don't come, we will go."

The man in the suit hurriedly stopped him: "No, this is a downtown area, and the road outside is full of surveillance cameras. It's impossible for them to know that we are here, or they would have fled away long ago. There are only two possibilities, one is that there is a sudden delay, and the other is Watch and wait. Now only three minutes and 41 seconds have passed. If you wait for more than 15 minutes, people will tend to get anxious or even collapse, so they will definitely come over after a while."

As the minutes passed, Zhu Yan hit the ground more and more frequently.He frowned, as if two sarcoma had grown on his forehead, and after a short while, he asked again irritably, "They haven't moved yet? How long has it been!"

The man in the suit squeezed the tablet, pretending to be calm and said: "17 minutes and [-] seconds, wait a little longer."

Zhu Yan said angrily: "Wait until your grandpa is a ghost, I will go out and catch them now, those surveillance guys have a way anyway!"

The man in the suit said impatiently: "Mr. Bai reminded me ten thousand times, keep a low profile, keep a low profile... move!"

The four people in the pharmacy were all overjoyed, and saw that the little green dot that everyone was looking at finally moved slowly on the tablet that seemed to be dead.The man in the suit immediately ordered the left and right to ambush, and Zhu Yan also quickly walked into the back room.

The delivery box was pushed into the middle of the hall, and the concentrate canister lay quietly inside.The man in the suit held the spray can controller and carefully hid behind the counter.

The turned off tablet lay quietly on the ground, and the sound of footsteps outside the door gradually became clear.

"—Clatter!"

There was a sudden loud noise from the carved antique door, but the light-transmitting squares on the door showed that there was no one outside at the moment.

The people squatting on both sides of the corner trembled at the same time, only feeling a chill coming in from outside the door.There was obviously no wind, but the room suddenly dropped several degrees.

Zhu Yan in the back room kicked his eyes and rushed out with a punch. The man in the suit had no time to stop him before he broke through the door.

"Boom!" The two antique doors crashed to the ground.

Pan Xiaohong turned his head in surprise, and saw a huge monster rushing out like a tiger. He didn't care about hiding the movement, threw the phone away, and ran wildly.

"Help! Help! Help!"

Song Banyan only heard a "bang" from the phone, and just about to say something was wrong, Pan Xiaohong's howls of crying for his father and mother came from his ears.She immediately lifted her foot to release the brake, and Bai Xunhua leaned forward to open the rear door.

Before the two could speak, Pan Xiaohong had already rushed to the entrance of the alley.

"I'll go!" Song Banyan caught a glimpse of the huge black shadow behind him, and immediately shouted, "Get in the car!"

It's a matter of life and death, how can she tell.Pan Xiaohong didn't work so hard in the 400-meter college entrance examination, his face flushed, he rushed up and hugged the car door, and shouted, "Hurry up and drive!"

Zhu Yan took two or three steps in one step, and Pan Xiaohong chased him to the entrance of the alley, the distance between the two was only one meter.With a wave of Zhu Yan's long arm, he caught Pan Xiaohong——

"thorn"

Pan Xiaohong's T-shirt was torn into two pieces.

Song Banyan stepped on the gas pedal to the bottom, and the poor scooter seemed to have been kicked.With a wailing roar of the engine, he staggered forward and flew past Zhu Yan with a whoosh.

Pan Xiaohong hugged the car door tightly, the horrible scene just now was still in his mind.

Song Banyan didn't slow down the gas pedal, turned right immediately when he saw the red light ahead, and closed the rear door, Pan Xiaohong almost turned into a roujiamo with a "bang".

Pan Xiaohong came back to his senses from the pain, and when he took a closer look, he saw the scene in front of him like an afterimage. He was so frightened that he hung on the car window frame with his hands and feet in a hurry: "First...let me down first..."

Song Banyan was not willing to take risks, he just pretended not to hear, and drove forward without slowing down.Bai Xunhua saw that Pan Xiaohong was too unsafe, and said to him: "There is a handrail on the rear roof, try to grab it."

Trembling, Pan Xiaohong let go of one hand, and before he touched the handrail, he heard a scream from the side of the road - "There is a pervert!"

The speed of the car was too fast, and the words behind were blurred in the wind.Pan Xiaohong's head froze for two seconds before he could react, and then screamed: "My clothes! Clothes!"

Song Banyan dug his ears, couldn't take it anymore, and said angrily: "Isn't it just a piece of clothing, I'll give you one later."

Pan Xiaohong, who managed to get into the car with great difficulty, his buttocks were still unsteady, as if a gunpowder barrel had exploded, he grabbed the back of Song Banyan's chair and roared: "What kind of clothes, that's my goddess' ten-year-like anniversary limited luxury Edition Symphony Standing Painting T-shirt! Limited! Limited!"

Song Banyan thought in his heart: If I had known earlier, I would have threatened him with a T-shirt.Hey, what a waste of words.

Seeing that Pan Xiaohong's mood was unstable, Bai Xunhua quickly changed the subject: "That person just now was too scary, have you seen him before?"

Pan Xiaohong's facial features wrinkled into a ball: "If I had seen it, I would not have done it there!"

Pan Xiaohong's tone was too aggressive, and Song Banyan was immediately displeased: "Tsk, you are also a child raiser, so you have a lot of promise."

Pan Xiaohong rolled his eyes: "I'm the protagonist in other games."①

Song Banyan immediately sneered: "Stop dreaming, your little ghost has only a sliver of soul left. If it didn't match your horoscope, that pharmacy would have been annihilated long ago."

Pan Xiaohong is very defensive, he can dislike him, but Song Banyan is not allowed to talk about his little ghost, poking his head on the car seat and saying: "Don't forget, if it wasn't for my little ghost to remind you, you would have sent him home to make snacks for that King Kong .”

Song Banyan smiled slightly, pointed to the yellow paper frog on the instrument panel and said, "That has nothing to do with you, it is in awe of me."

Pan Xiaohong leaned forward and grabbed the yellow paper frog, looked and looked over and over in his hand, but didn't see anything special, so he finally took it apart.

"Fuck, it's just a piece of empty yellow paper, you're fooling me!" Pan Xiaohong shook the yellow paper excitedly, with an excited expression on his face, "Look at you stupid, there is nothing."

Song Banyan asked with a half-smile: "If that group of people had guns, would they kill your kid?"

Pan Xiaohong was enjoying the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and said without thinking, "You are stupid, a ghost doesn't even have a body, how can you be afraid of bullets!"

Bai Xunhua realized something, and glanced sideways at the creased yellow paper.

Guns are very dangerous weapons for humans.But ghosts don't have flesh and blood, and the bullets shoot out like hitting the air.And this yellow paper frog, which Pan Xiaohong sees as harmless, is probably as terrifying to his little devil as bombs are to humans.

Bai Xunhua's thoughts were quick, and she immediately figured out the connection. At this moment, she couldn't help being full of strange curiosity about this familiar world.

Bai Xunhua couldn't help looking at Song Banyan. Song Banyan felt something, and tilted his head to show her a smile: "Mystery is always very charming, and she belongs to you now."

Bai Xunhua pursed her lips and smiled, reserved and proud.

Pan Xiaohong nestled in the back seat, unfolded the crumpled yellow paper, and muttered, "Where did you say that monster came from? Why is it in my shop?"

The expressions of Bai Xunhua and Song Banyan changed, and their expressions were serious.

The author has something to say: ① "I am the protagonist in other games." Ezreal's lines in the game "League of Legends".

(Song Banyan doesn't know)
