Please charm this NPC

After bidding farewell to the well-dressed doctor, Abler led the investigators through the streets of the town again, and came to a mansion with an extraordinarily solemn appearance.

"Ah, it's that black cat..." Liang Yu whispered, and everyone looked up following the sound, only to see the black cat with yellow eyes lying on the iron gate of the mansion. The cat is flicking its tail lazily.

"...Is that the mayor's cat?" Ran Wenyu tried to ask.

Abler can ignore other people's problems, but for Ran Wenyu, he can't do this for no reason.

"It's not the mayor's cat." He replied in a low voice, "It's a wild cat, it just often comes to the mayor's house to beg for food." Others are worthy of trust."

The investigators' eyes lit up, and they immediately kept this clue in their hearts.

Abler ignored the black cat, stepped forward, and rang the doorbell.Soon, the gate opened automatically, and Abler continued to move forward without any abnormalities, and pushed open the main entrance of the mansion.

The mayor who received the notice from the visitor had already been waiting at the door. Seeing that Abler came in with four—oh, no, five strangers, the mayor showed a friendly smile, as if he had already understood the purpose of the group.

The mayor is in his forties, with elegant and handsome features, and a hint of majesty in his elegant demeanor. Some crow's feet have appeared in the corners of his eyes, and his temples are gray, but he does not look old at all, but has a mature charm.

"Hello, strangers, I'm Ge Zongnian, the mayor here." Ge Zongnian smiled and greeted Ran Wenyu with a pair of gentle eyes, with some genuine concern, "Are you injured? Is it serious?"

"It's okay." Ran Wenyu found out that the mayor was also his "old friend", and immediately relaxed, and replied softly, unconsciously revealing a bit of intimacy, "Abu Le has taken me to the hospital for treatment, the doctor said It's okay, just rest for a few days."

"That's good." Ge Zongnian nodded, motioned for Abler to put Ran Wenyu on the sofa in the living room, and then invited the other four investigators to sit down.

The investigators have long been accustomed to being treated differently, and they are too lazy to have any strange emotions.After sitting down, Augustus immediately spoke and honestly explained how several people lost their memories and appeared in the forest flower garden outside the town inexplicably.

Ge Zongnian listened quietly to Augustus' narration, with a soft expression, like a loving and wise elder.After a while, he sighed softly: "I have no clue about your situation, and I can't help, but I did read records of people with amnesia suddenly appearing in the town."

It was a surprise to the investigators to get this news.Augustus' eyes lit up: "Really? Which book is it? Can we take a look?"

Ge Zongnian frowned slightly: "I have read too many books, so I can't clearly remember which one it is, but it should be in my library, I can help you find it." After a pause, looking at the excited investigators, he had no choice but to speak out, "But it's just a record of this matter, maybe it won't be of much help."

"It's okay, we want to take a look." Augustus replied sincerely, "Knowing that someone has encountered the same situation as us, and we are not the only ones, this can give us a lot of peace of mind."

"Excuse me, if we need to find a book, can we help?" Liu Qianqian asked, "If there are many people, it should be faster to find it?"

Ge Zongnian understood their eagerness and did not refuse: "Of course, you can come to the study to help me at any time. It's in the corner room on the first floor." After talking about looking for books, Ge Zongnian changed the topic, "In addition, what do you want? If you stay here with me, there is no problem. The five rooms on the second floor are all vacant guest rooms, and they have been cleaned all the time, so you can allocate them yourself."

Speaking of this, Ge Zongnian looked at Ran Wenyu and pondered for a moment: "However, Mr. Ran, because of his ankle injury and limited mobility, I suggest staying on the first floor. There is another room next to my bedroom."

Of course, Ran Wenyu would not refuse Ge Zongnian's friendly suggestion. Although his teacher no longer remembered him, he still had [-]% trust in Ge Zongnian.

Hearing Ran Wenyu's straightforward and unhesitating promise, Ge Zongnian couldn't help showing a softer smile. Obviously, his favorability with him had increased a lot, but Augustus's expression turned weird for a moment.

According to the general rules, the next door to the male master's bedroom is the female master's bedroom, and there will be a small door connecting the two bedrooms.Augustus originally wanted to remind Ran Wenyu of this problem, but unexpectedly, Ran Wenyu didn't give him any chance at all, so he agreed directly.

Now that he had agreed, he might offend the NPC if he went back on his word. Augustus had no choice but to swallow his words of admonition, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to Ran Wenyu.

—Maybe, maybe he was thinking too much?Maybe the NPC in front of him named Ge Zongnian is really just out of kindness, wanting to take care of Ran Wenyu's foot injury?

So secretly relieved, Augustus put the matter aside.The investigators walked around the second floor and quickly decided on their own room.

Seeing that the investigators had settled down at the mayor's house, Abler got up to leave. Before leaving, at Ran Wenyu's request, he marked his residence on Liang Yu's map.

Next, it's free to explore.Liang Yu and Liu Qianqian decided to go to Ge Zongnian's study to look for books recording the amnesia of foreigners, while Augustus and Liu Maojin discussed going outside to get acquainted with the town and look for other clues.

As for Ran Wenyu, he also decided to go out, but he was stopped by Ge Zongnian because of his "unhealed foot injury".

"The doctor said that I can move, as long as I pay attention." Ran Wenyu looked at Ge Zongnian pitifully, and even stood up and took two steps.

——Because of the privileges given to players by KP, Ran Wenyu's foot injury healed after receiving the doctor's treatment. He still pretended that he hadn't recovered, but he just wanted to stay in the town as a matter of course.

However, even if he pretended to be injured, he must not hinder his investigation!To be honest, Ran Wenyu is still 12 curious about this town full of his boyfriends.

In the face of Ran Wenyu's soft-spoken, coquettish and shameless behavior, Ge Zongnian could only retreat steadily. He sighed a long time, and looked at Ran Wenyu as if he was looking at a spoiled brat: "Okay, Well, you can go out if you want, but I need to find someone I trust to accompany you."

After speaking, he motioned to Ran Wenyu to be calm, and he walked to the side and picked up the receiver of the old-fashioned rotary phone.

About 10 minutes later, the doorbell rang again. Ge Zongnian opened the door, and saw Cui Zheng, who was wearing a leather jacket, a peaked cap, and a camera hanging around his neck, walked in briskly.

Cui Zheng greeted Ge Zongnian, and the relationship seemed to be still quite friendly: "Hey, old man, do you know what I saw on the street today?"

He squinted his eyes and smiled brightly. While speaking, he glanced casually in the living room, and saw five investigators sitting on the sofa.Cui Zheng was stunned for a moment, then immediately left Ge Zongnian and strode towards Ran Wenyu.

"Hello, we met on the street, do you remember?" Cui Zheng stood in front of Ran Wenyu, leaned slightly, holding his precious camera in one hand, and propped the other on the back of the sofa where Ran Wenyu was sitting, With great scheming, he completely enveloped Ran Wenyu under his body.

Ran Wenyu, who is well aware of Cui Zheng's face-controlling attributes, is very used to Cui Zheng's enthusiasm for beauties. He also has a good impression of this "boy friend". He looked up at Cui Zheng and smiled: "I remember. You still Take a picture of me."

"Yes! That's really a great photo!" Cui Zheng's smile widened a bit, "You are so beautiful. When I saw you, I was deeply attracted by you. Originally, I wanted to greet you at that time, but seeing that you were being carried by Abel, it seemed that there was something urgent, and I was worried about disturbing you, so I didn't go forward."

Ran Wenyu was stunned. Although he was "love at first sight" by Cui Zheng twice because of his appearance, Ran Wenyu never thought that Cui Zheng would still like him so much in this small town with a per capita APP of more than 80.

——On the one hand, this is due to my own 90 APP, and on the other hand, it may also be due to KP.

"Hello, my name is Cui Zheng, can I get to know you?" Cui Zheng observed Ran Wenyu's expression and found that he did not resist himself, so he stretched out his hand to him and introduced himself.

"Hello, my name is Ran Wenyu." Ran Wenyu raised his hand and shook Cui Zheng politely.

Seeing Ran Wenyu withdraw his hand, Cui Zheng's eyes flashed with reluctance, but he didn't make any overly intimate moves.Seeing that the two had finished introducing each other, Ge Zongnian walked up to them and coughed lightly.

Cui Zheng raised his head, looked at Ge Zongnian, and then stood up straight: "You said you have something to ask me, is it about Wen Yu?"

——Obviously, although he restrained a little in manner, but in terms of address, Cui Zheng chose the more intimate one quite obediently.

Ge Zongnian also knew what kind of urine his old friend was. After signaling him not to scare the children with his eyes, he explained the reason and process of the investigator and his party coming to the town.

Listening to Ge Zongnian's narration, Cui Zheng's eyes flashed brightly, and he finally divided his gaze to the other four investigators, looking them up and down carefully.

"This is really interesting." He smiled and fiddled with his camera casually, "I haven't encountered such an interesting thing for a long time~"

"Now, some ladies and gentlemen want to stay at my house temporarily. Firstly, they want to heal Mr. Ran's injuries, and secondly, they want to investigate the strange things that happened to him." Ge Zongnian smiled. This should also be of interest."

"Of course!" Cui Zheng said without hesitation, "I'm very interested!"

"Then please help them." Ge Zongnian nodded slightly, "Mr. Ran, Mr. Tang, and Mr. Liu want to walk around the town. You know the town better than anyone else, so you will act as their guide." Guide. In addition, Mr. Ran has injured his left ankle, you need to pay more attention, and you must not let his injury worsen."

Cui Zheng raised his hand and made an "OK" gesture.

With the addition of Cui Zheng, a local, the investigators immediately gained a lot of confidence.The crowd repeatedly expressed their gratitude to Ge Zongnian and Cui Zheng, and then the girls followed Ge Zongnian to the study, while the men followed Cui Zheng and walked into this mysterious town with Liang Yu's hand-drawn map.

Cui Zheng is obviously a good communicator. All the townspeople who come and go on the street know him and have a good relationship. They can greet him friendly when they meet.

However, for Ran Wenyu's three foreigners, their reactions were much colder. None of them would take the initiative to ask the identities of the three. The only reaction was probably to observe Ran Wenyu with puzzled and curious eyes——Yes, Only Ran Wenyu.

And Cui Zheng didn't mean to introduce the two parties. He walked beside Ran Wenyu, slowing down his pace in cooperation with him, as if strolling in a courtyard, introducing them from time to time, such as the hospital or the bar.

"I opened that bar." Pointing to a very personal building on the corner of the street, Cui Zheng said with a smile, "The bar is only open at night. If you want to find me, you can come to the bar at night. As for the daytime , That’s my free time.” Shrugging his shoulders, Cui Zheng said half-jokingly, “I will appear in all places in the town from time to time, if you want to find me, I’m afraid you can only go through our wise town. Your Excellency—he can always accurately grasp my whereabouts, which is really puzzling."

Liu Maojin held the map in his hand, and wrote down the location of the bar and the way to find Cui Zheng on it, while Augustus frowned slightly, sensitively noticing the weirdness hidden in Cui Zheng's exclamation that seemed to be a joke.At the same time, Ran Wenyu also had a connection with Augustus.

"Really? The mayor is really amazing." He tentatively asked in the same joking tone, "How did he manage to do this?"

"I don't know." Cui Zheng shrugged his shoulders, "I suspect it's because of that black cat, which is more elusive than me. Or because of some other way. Ge Zongnian is a good man, and I'm his most sincere friend. But to be honest, being able to secure the position of mayor in this small town also means that he has extraordinary means."

On this point, the investigators agree.This small town seems ordinary, but there is a subtle sense of disobedience everywhere. This feeling is not strong, but it seems to be a gangrene, which cannot be ignored, let alone shaken off.

"Abel—the Mr. Hunter who brought us to the town said that the town is dangerous. Let us leave as soon as possible and not have too much contact with the people in the town. Why?" Ran Wenyu asked further.

Cui Zheng showed a surprised expression: "This is what Abler told you? His enthusiasm is not common at all." With such emotion, Cui Zheng's expression was a little serious, and his voice was lowered a little, "Yes, he I didn’t deceive you, many townspeople—or rather, the vast majority of townspeople are not easy to get along with. Fortunately, they seldom meddle in other people’s affairs. As long as you don’t take the initiative to approach them or provoke them, they will be fine. It will turn a blind eye to you, which is a good thing for you."

Ran Wenyu raised his eyes and looked directly at Cui Zheng: "Are you also like this?"

Cui Zheng was slightly startled, then chuckled, "I'm also a good person."

Investigators: “………………………”

——I always feel that I don’t really believe in this “good guy”’s rhetoric.
