Chapter 177 Another Mythical Anecdote, Arriving in London (Thanks to Chocolate Flavor Ding for the reward)
Cold lights filled the prison cell, and several children sat in front of the TV, discussing something. Their faces were pale in the light.
Finally, after discussion among everyone, they decided not to have any slogans.
Ji Minghuan didn't seem to have expected that even Kong Youling did not support the slogan he proposed, so he hung his head like a deflated balloon, buried his attention in picking up the discs on the ground, and no longer paid attention to the three people behind him.
After a moment, he suddenly asked: "By the way... do you know what the last sixth child is called?"
"The sixth child?" Firion murmured in confusion.
Ji Minghuan nodded: "Didn't the instructor tell you that there is another kid imprisoned here who is bound to a 'mythical anecdote'? Among all of you, is there anyone who knows his name, or what the anecdote he has?"
Hearing this, the three children in front of the TV looked at each other.
"It should be Zhu Bajie," Sun Changkong hugged his shoulders and snorted twice, "Then I will have a junior brother."
"Big sister, you already have a lot of little brothers, so you don't need a pig, right?" Ji Minghuan said, "Besides... I feel that Zhu Bajie is at most a 'generational' curiosity, not even as good as Tang Monk."
"What's so great about Tang Monk?" Sun Changkong crossed his legs, blinked his eyes and looked at him curiously.
"Tang Seng is really amazing," Ji Minghuan snorted, "We can divide up his meat and eat it. Then we can become immortal and live together until the end of the world."
Firion's ears stood up high, and he shuddered all over. "Ji Minghuan, I don't eat humans. I don't eat humans... I really don't eat humans."
He murmured softly, curled up, hugged his tail, and looked at the ground tremblingly.
Ji Minghuan was stunned, thinking that he seemed to have accidentally touched the little werewolf's sore spot.
"Okay, okay, I'm just joking. I won't let you eat people." He touched Firion's wolf ears, thinking that you are even worse than the glutton Shark, who eats everything.
In order to change the subject, he turned his head to look at Mario sitting on the chair and continued to ask:
"Mario, do you know what another mythical story here is?"
"I seem to have heard my instructor mention it..." Mario said, "that it is a foreign myth, but I forgot which country it was from."
"Greek mythology?" Ji Minghuan was stunned.
Mario played the game console for a while with an expressionless face, then nodded.
Ji Minghuan withdrew his gaze from his face, raised his eyebrows curiously, and thought in his heart:
"Wow... fragments from Greek mythology, right? Could it be something like Poseidon, Hades, or Athena, the goddess of wisdom?"
In fact, he knew very little about Greek mythology. He learned these majestic-sounding names when he was watching "Saint Seiya" with Kong Youling in the computer room.
With a "click", the dark disc player swallowed the disc and the picture began to play on the TV.
Ji Minghuan looked up at the TV screen, scratched his hair, and suddenly thought: "Wait a minute, the last child's mythical fragment must not be 'Zeus'... After that, the Salvation Society copy will be really hellish for me."
"What are you thinking about?" Kong Youling pulled his sleeve and raised the notebook and asked.
"Nothing. I'm going to London tomorrow. Are you happy?" He turned around and curled the corners of his lips at her.
“Happy, first time traveling!”
"Yeah, after we finish our tour of London, we'll escape on the Penguin spaceship. Those idiots from the Savior Society will definitely not be able to catch up with us."
"Really?"
"real."
Sun Changkong suddenly looked away from the TV screen, glanced at the two of them, then hugged his knees and silently looked at the TV. His fiery red pupils reflected the screen, shining brightly.
Not long after, when the movie was only halfway through, the instructor's voice rang out from above their heads: "It's time to rest, kids. We have to go to London tomorrow, so you need to recuperate."
As soon as the words fell, the metal door rumbled open, and the figures of the white-robed experimenters were already lined up side by side under the light curtain of the corridor.
Sun Changkong was the first to stand up. He walked out of the cell without saying a word and without even saying hello.
Mario was the second one to stand up. He looked down at the game console and walked into the corridor with an expressionless face.
Ji Minghuan glanced at Sun Changkong's back, then pressed the pause button on the remote control, turned his head to look at Kong Youling and Firio, and said to them: "You two should go back to bed quickly, otherwise you will be scolded by the instructor again."
Firion nodded and said, "Goodbye, Ji Minghuan. I will definitely protect you tomorrow."
"I feel relieved when you say that, big dog."
After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Kong Youling, "Tomorrow...see you in London."
A moment later, the children all walked out of the cell. The door closed. The lights went out.
In the darkness, Ji Minghuan sat motionless in the chair for a while, then lay down on the bed.
At this moment, his pupils shrank slightly, and he suddenly felt a subtle tingling sensation on his neck, as if a small needle had grown inside the collar.
Then, his consciousness suddenly became groggy, as if his mind was covered with fog. He couldn't think clearly and was about to fall asleep.
"Sedatives..."
Thinking of this, while he was still unconscious, Ji Minghuan used all his strength to split his mind, dispersing it and synchronizing it with the perspectives of several game consoles in his mind.
At this moment, it was already late at night in Lijing, China, and the plane that Xia Pingzhou and Ayase Origami were on had just arrived at London International Airport in the UK.
The time difference between London and Lijing is seven hours, and it is sunset here.
The plane slowly descended with a rumbling sound. Looking down from the plane, you could see the Thames River sparkling in the sunset. Birds flew over the Millennium Bridge, whose two ends connected St. Paul's Cathedral and the Tate Gallery.
There was a drizzle in the sky, and the hazy Gothic spires could be seen through the rain.
Ayase Origami gently reached out her hand and woke up Xia Pingzhou who was resting on her shoulder. He slowly opened his heavy eyelids, opened his eyes, and looked up. The remaining red of the sunset was reflected on the girl's white cheeks.
Staring at her profile for a while, Xia Pingzhou thought, "How cruel... The instructor must have injected a fast-acting sedative into my body, and it wasn't just an ordinary sedative... I almost fell into a deep sleep."
"Are we there yet?" he asked.
"Here we are," she said.
"So fast..." Xia Ping Zhou yawned and raised his head from Ayase Origami's shoulder.
"London and Venice are close, and it only takes two hours by plane." Jack the Ripper hugged their shoulders and asked them, "What are you going to do next?"
"Let's go to a hotel and sleep." "Sleep."
Xia Ping Zhu and Ayase Origami said in unison, the former was shaky and seemed not to have woken up yet, so he rested his head on the shoulder of the kimono girl and closed his eyes.
The Ripper passed by his seat and said coldly, "I wouldn't mind slicing you into pieces and putting you in a bag and taking you to the hotel."
Xia Pingzhou didn't say anything, and Ayase Origami just lowered her head and looked at the haiku collection. She didn't seem to have any intention of waking Xia Pingzhou up. Anyway, there were still two or three minutes before the cabin door closed.
Ji Minghuan synchronized his consciousness to body No. 1.
Now that Xia Pingzhou has arrived in London, it's time to get busy with Hei Pupa's affairs.
At the same time, in a residential building in Guyimai Street, Lijing, China.
In the dim room, Gu Wenyu stood up from the bed, raised his right arm, stretched out the restraints and pressed it against the wall. He glanced at the time on the wall in the moonlight: "01:30".
He scratched his messy hair, took out the mobile phone under the pillow, and took a look at it with drooping eyelids.
[Ke Qirui: At 2:30 in the morning, I am waiting for you at the abandoned train station near Guyimai Street.]
[Black Pupa: Got it, Miss Ke.]
[Ke Qirui: Hurry up, we have to arrive in London tonight and make plans in advance. The red light should be on the way to London.]
[Black Pupa: I have always been a punctual person, please rest assured.]
[Ke Qirui: Speaking of which, Mr. Black Pupa, who knows everything, wouldn't get lost, right? Do you need me to send you a location? ]
[Black Pupa: It's okay, Ms. Ke Zinan will lead the way for me. ]
[Ke Qirui: You really have a bad taste. Do you like stalking little girls so much? ]
[Black Pupa: Wrong, I was just protecting her personal safety. Letting a little girl walk alone at night is not what a gentleman should do.]
[Ke Qirui: If she knew there was a big fluttering moth following her, she would be even more scared, right?]
[Black Pupa: Not really. I just gave her a gift a few days ago. She should be deeply in love with me now.]
[Ke Qirui: Let’s stop talking for now. See you at the train station.]
Gu Wenyu put down his phone, stretched out a restraint belt and pressed it against the wall. The restraint belt penetrated the wall and took a look at his sister's room for him.
Under the moonlight, a white nightgown was lying on the floor. Su Zimai had changed into a smart black suit, put on a human face mask, and tied a high ponytail. His whole temperament suddenly looked more capable and heroic.
Su Zimai was looking at his reflection in the mirror with a determined look in his eyes, as if he had made a great decision.
"She's dressed the same as at the auction, and she has this determined look in her eyes. Damn, the diaper demon is about to strike again..."
Gu Wenyu rubbed his dark circles, thinking unhappily in his heart, then he groaned and slowly stood up from the bed.
He extended another restraint from his sleeve, pulled out the cardboard box from the bottom of the closet, and took out a black swallowtail windbreaker and a dark red mask.
After changing into Black Pupa's uniform, he then wrapped his entire body with restraints, turned into a transparent form, opened the window, jumped up under the moonlight, and disappeared into the darkness.
