Chapter 211: Scavenger (7) A regular job
Gao Mengtang and Inari look exactly the same? ?
Wei Wei, He Lun, and Lin Li cast inquiring glances at him, but Gao Mengtang couldn't see clearly now.
"Well, but I really don't know Inari." Gao Mengtang rubbed his stinging eyeballs, "I have a guess that Inari and I just look alike."
Gao Mengtang himself didn't believe this guess.
As soon as he entered Chen Yuan's house, the group of people stared at him as if they had seen a ghost. If they just looked similar, they would not be so surprised.
But how can there be two people who look exactly the same?
"Let's put this matter aside for now," Wei Wei said, "let's leave here first."
They pushed open the window, looking for a chance to jump out, but the sudden explosion of fireworks startled them. The coming-of-age ceremony began.
The courtyard was crowded with guests.
"How do we get out?" He Lun was so anxious that he scratched his head. "The front and back yards are full of people, and there's no way out... How about I take you out by flying?"
As he spoke, he spread his wings and hugged Gao Mengtang's ribs.
Wei Wei glanced at him and said nothing. This villa only has three floors at the highest. If a 1.8-meter-long "big bird" flew out of the window, the people in the yard would definitely find them unless they were all blind.
"Avi, how did you come back?" Gao Mengtang asked.
"I followed the footprints in the forest and found a cave, which led to the secret passage here," Wei Wei said, "but soon after I entered the cave, I saw that Chen Yuan had sent people to seal the cave, and more than 20 people were sent outside to guard it."
He Lun was so anxious that he scratched his head and said, "What should I do?"
"I have made arrangements. If you cannot escape through the window, you can return the same way you came. Wolanbei will be a sniper and ambush from a distance," Wei Wei led them back to the secret passage. "Tu Cheng and Bai Jie will wait outside the cave. Bai Jie will steal their weapons, and Tu Cheng will use his skills to assist us. We will rush out directly."
The four of them were walking through the secret passage, with He Luo leading the way in front. He had an amazing sense of direction, and he felt like he was in an empty space in the winding, maze-like secret passage.
On the other side of the wall, there were sporadic conversations. Gao Mengtang and the others slowed down their pace.
"Where is Ji Tian? Who has seen him?" one of them asked. Ji Tian was the man who was severely interrogated by Wei Wei.
"I don't know. I'm more concerned about whether Inari can come tonight. I haven't met him yet. I heard that he is very very very handsome."
"Speaking of Inari, among those people sent by Thunder God to deliver gifts, one of them, codenamed the Blind Man, actually looks exactly like Inari!" The man was so surprised that his voice changed, "I can't believe my eyes!"
"Yeah, I stared at the blind man's face for five minutes like I was looking for differences, but I couldn't see any difference between him and Inari!"
"Where did he come from? Why did he look like that?"
Gao Mengtang:?
What do you mean by "that look"? Doesn't it just look the same as Inari? Why use such an unpleasant term!
"Have you really never seen Inari?" Wei Wei asked quietly.
Gao Mengtang raised three fingers: "No. I don't want to look exactly like others."
The conversation outside came in again: "Could the blind man be a clone created by Lei Gong? We all know that Lei Gong worships Inari to the extreme. Lei Gong's dream is to have plastic surgery to become a beauty like Inari."
Hearing this, Gao Mengtang became even more unhappy.
Calculating the time, Inari died in 343 AD. 20 years later, a wealthy old man spent 20 million to let Wei Wei revive Inari. It can be seen that Inari has a particularly important position in the hearts of some people.
In the same year that Inari died, Gao Mengtang was born.
"Am I really a clone of Inari?" Gao Mengtang was very hurt. "I, I am his replacement?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Brother Mengtang is one-of-a-kind!" He Lun was inexplicably angry, "20 million is nothing, Brother Mengtang, if you die, I, Duan Song, Brother Wei, Lin Li, and everyone at Yue Fan will pool together 200 million to summon your soul!"
Lin Li pushed up his glasses and said seriously, "The prophet is immortal."
Gao Mengtang's misty eyes brightened a little: "Really? You care about me so much?"
"Of course!" He Lun said confidently, "Right, Brother Wei?"
Wei Wei frowned disapprovingly: "You are cursing the Blind Man by saying this. Besides, it is not easy for me to make money..."
Before he finished speaking, Wei Wei saw Gao Mengtang turned his face and looked in his direction. Gao Mengtang's eyes, which were blind, were large and lifeless, but one could see a heart-warming expectation in those dark pupils.
"…It's not easy to make money, so we have to spend it wisely," Wei Wei sighed silently, "I will also collect money to call back your soul. No, my resurrection technique, to be honest, is unique. Why should I spend money to ask others to call back my soul?"
Gao Mengtang smiled suddenly and held their arms tightly.
Inari is very respected, but so what? Gao Mengtang also has many people who respect him!
"But the prophet is immortal." Lin Li repeated stubbornly.

"Has Lao Wei replied?" Wolanbei pressed the intercom in his ear.
Tu Cheng: "No. There is no signal in the villa."
"Tsk." Wolanbei lay in the grass three hundred meters away, one eye pressed against the sniper scope, the crosshairs aimed at the head of one of the men in black suits.
His body stiffened for a moment, and he turned the muzzle of the gun and aimed it at the mountain path blocked by branches and leaves.
"A car is coming." said Wolanbei.
In the sniper scope, a row of black cars appeared. Just as Wo Lanbei was wondering about the origins of those cars, he saw more than 30 people get out of the black cars, including Yin Mingwu.
Yin Mingwu is an undercover agent planted by the police. Then the identities of these people are... plainclothes policemen.
System: "Friendly reminder, as [Scavengers], the players' duty is to help Thunder God deal with all troubles. 'Troubles' also include the police."
"Be careful when using your powers in front of NPC police. Once the police become suspicious of your identity, Thunder God will most likely execute you all."
Tu Cheng cursed, and Wolanbei was so angry that he wanted to blow up all these NPCs with a grenade.
"What should we do?" Bai Jie's heart was pounding. Their plan was that when they were about to reach the entrance of the cave, Wei Wei, He Luo, Pei Jiana, Gao Mengtang and others would attack together to take the initiative.
By then, octopus monsters were crawling all over the ground, a colorful furry ball was barking, black mud emerged from the soil, and people with wings were flying in the sky.
It is known that the police have eyes and will definitely discover that they have special identities.
"Damn it, the police are guarding the entrance to the cave." Wolanbei said, "Hurry up and contact Lao Wei and tell him not to use his skills!"
"I can't get through!" Tu Cheng punched the phone angrily.
In the sniper scope, Yin Mingwu talked with several other plainclothes policemen for a few words, then made a gesture and asked them to hide in the woods and wait. He shook his suit, leaned on his crutches, and limped towards the villa.

"Hurry, hurry, get out now!" He Lun ran forward impatiently, and Wei Wei suddenly grabbed his sleeve.
The pair of scarlet fox eyes narrowed, stared in one direction, and slowly moved their gaze horizontally.
"No," Wei Wei said, "There are 32 more hostiles, and another hostile is moving quickly towards the villa."
There were only 12 players in total, and suddenly there were 32 more hostiles. They must be NPCs.
The key point is, what are the identities of those NPCs?
Gao Mengtang and others did not see the police directly, nor did they receive any reminders from the system about the police. They could only guess.
"32 more guests?" He Lun asked.
Wei Wei loosened his sleeves, thought for a few seconds, and shook his head: "Guests are not hostile NPCs. They will only light up red after we actively attack them. These 30-plus people are not guests."
Who else could it be?
Wei Wei glanced in the direction of the exit, and after a brief ideological confrontation, he said, "The situation has changed. For the sake of caution, we should not go out yet."
"Maybe it's the police." Gao Mengtang said casually.
Wei Wei: "How do you know?"
"The NPCs here are divided into three camps: Wuyun, Chen Yuan's people, and the police. Excluding the other two, the police are the only ones left." Gao Mengtang said, "Let's not rush out and observe for a while."
Wei Wei stared at the fast-moving red fluorescence for a moment and said, "Let's go and take a look."
He found a secret door, put his ear to it, and listened to the footsteps outside.
There was only one person's footsteps. Heavy and slow, he was a fat man.
Wei Wei opened the door.
*
In the hall, Yin Mingwu suddenly appeared, attracting everyone's attention.
Most of the guests at the coming-of-age ceremony were employees of Tanhualing. They knew each other, but had never seen Yin Mingwu. After looking at him for a while, they began to whisper in the language of the other world.
"Who is that cripple?"
"I don't know him. Chen Yuan's university teacher?"
"I'm Chen Yuan's friend." Yin Mingwu also answered in Esperanto, walking over with his crutches, and enthusiastically trying to shake hands with them. "Nice to meet you."
Everyone stopped talking and stared at him suspiciously.
There is absolutely no such person in Tanhualing and its related organizations.
But he can also speak the language of the Other World, at least, he is related to the Black Tower.
"Hello." A fat, bald man took the lead in shaking hands with Yin Mingwu, smiling kindly, "You look familiar. What's your name?"
Yin Mingwu glanced at the bald man and paused for a few seconds: "Xiao Ming."
"Brother Li, do you know each other?" someone asked in a low voice.
"Now we know each other." Brother Li was fat, sitting awkwardly in a chair, leaning back, "Xiao Ming, just call me Brother Li."
Yin Mingwu smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes: "Brother Li."
The two chatted for a while, and Yin Mingwu got to the point: "Brother, I heard that there is a man called the Blind Man who sent a gift. He is very handsome?"
Brother Li suddenly clenched his hand around the wine glass. He raised his thick eyelids and looked at Yin Mingwu: "Yeah, don't you think his identity is a little special? Ask him..."
"Shh," Yin Mingwu raised a finger, signaling him to be quiet. He rolled his eyes and lowered his voice, "Brother Li, I have something to tell you. It's about the blind. Come with me."
After saying that, Yin Mingwu helped Brother Li to stand up, and the two of them entered an empty study room.
The door closed, and Brother Li narrowed his eyes: "Are you looking for the blind man? What's the matter?"
"Brother, I want to ask you for a favor." Yin Mingwu whispered in Brother Li's ear, his voice getting lower and lower, "But, can you bear it if I call you brother?"
Caught off guard, Yin Mingwu grabbed "Brother Li"'s neck tightly, and his fat and swollen body struggled violently.
The five fingers almost pierced through the flesh, and "Brother Li"'s body shrank rapidly. It was not the greasy bald man at all, but clearly Wei Wei!
Wei Wei didn't expect his transformation to be discovered, and was completely unprepared. Yin Mingwu's attack had the effect of [Soul Out of Body], and even a light blow would make the opponent lose the ability to counterattack.
Wei Wei couldn't pry his hands apart, and the strong feeling of suffocation made his eyes go blank...
"I'll spare your life." Yin Mingwu suddenly let go of his hand. Wei Wei fell to the ground with a thud, covering his throat and coughing for a long time.
After a while, Wei Wei stood up shakily and distanced himself from Yin Mingwu without leaving any trace.
It's so weird. When Wei Wei's ID card was still [101 Purification Master], Yin Mingwu couldn't see through his disguise. Why, after he evolved into [101 Nine Thousand Years Old], Yin Mingwu could recognize him?
He stared at Yin Mingwu coldly, with undisguised murderous intent, and at the same time, a little doubtful.
Wei Wei originally thought that Yin Mingwu would strangle him to death...
As if seeing Wei Wei's confusion, Yin Mingwu chuckled: "Linyuan Haunted House, thank you for reminding me that the mask of the rabbit mask craftsman cannot be touched. I can tell the good from the bad."
You are wrong, Wei Wei thought. In the Linyuan Haunted House, when contacting Yin Mingwu through the chat software, Wei Wei wanted to instigate Yin Mingwu to touch the mask, but Gao Mengtang snatched the phone away and reminded them that the mask could not be touched.
"What do you want to do with Mr. Blind?" Wei Wei rubbed the dark blue finger marks on his neck, "Are those people outside the police?"
"Yeah." Yin Mingwu leaned on the table and snorted, "I'm an undercover policeman, you already know that. Bai Jie will definitely steal my little secret."
The fact that he said it so calmly made it even more shocking.
After all, as the player ranked first on the honor list, Yin Mingwu is always more perceptive than others.
"My second task is to capture the blind man and bring him to the police station for interrogation," said Yin Mingwu.
Hearing the word "interrogation", Wei Wei's shoulders trembled slightly, and he quickly lowered his eyes: "Would you be so kind as to tell us the mission directly?"
"So what?" Yin Mingwu shrugged. "Old Kui, don't think too badly of me. I don't care whether the decomposed tasks can be completed or not."
Wei Wei: "In a Level 1 difficulty instance, if you fail to complete the decomposition task, you will also face a death penalty."
Yin Mingwu: "That's you, not me."
As he spoke, Yin Mingwu actually shared his task panel with Wei Wei calmly.
Decomposition task 2: Capture a [Scavenger] and send him to the police station for interrogation.
Tip 1: If the mission fails, your reward will be greatly reduced.
Tip 2: If the captured [Scavenger] is a [000 Blind Man], you will get double the reward.
If there is no prompt for "death penalty", it means the mission has failed and there is no danger to life.
The reduction in mission rewards had almost zero impact on Yin Mingwu, as he already had everything he deserved.
"You are lucky." Wei Wei sneered, "They are all level 1 copies, but you don't have a death penalty."
Yin Mingwu smiled a bit scoundrelly: "Who made me a policeman? I have a regular job, a stable job. The benefits are better than those of you outside the system."
