Chapter 22 Belllit
Chu Cheng felt his eyes go dark after entering the room, and he stumbled and fell on the bed. He lay on the bed, his head sunk into the soft pillow, and soon the edge of the pillow was soaked. The long hair close to the skin was also wet by sweat, and strands of it stuck to his forehead. The coat that was originally for warmth has now become a furnace, wrapping Chu Cheng tightly and almost suffocating him
Chu Cheng used all his strength to pull down the scarf that was wrapped around him, took off his coat and threw it directly to the ground, and even the shirt was pulled open and half hung on his body. The back of the shirt was already soaked, and it stuck tightly to Chu Cheng's thin back. Chu Cheng was so burned that he was not completely unconscious. He knew that if he took off his coat, the wind might make it worse. He could only endure the sticky discomfort and let the shirt hang on his body.
[Check the whole house to make sure there is no possibility of surveillance]
[After the inspection, there is no magical fluctuation and surveillance in the room, the host can rest assured]
Before he completely fainted, Chu Cheng forced a thin layer of almost negligible frost to rise in the room to maintain his perception of the house, and then he fainted.
If someone broke into the room at this time, it is estimated that he would be stunned at the door for at least half a minute. This is a scene that is difficult to describe. To say it is voluptuous is too explicit. To say it is heart-breaking, perhaps it is difficult for the person who actually sees it to conceal the dirty desires in his heart
. Most of the face of the person on the bed is buried in the pillow, and only a little forehead and a tightly furrowed brow can be seen. The long silver hair is scattered behind him, the beautiful shoulder blades like butterfly wings are raised, the slightly transparent white shirt hangs at his elbows, and the waist that seems to be slender has bent into an amazing arc.
But the hands that tightly grasped the sheets and the shoulders that seemed to be shaking because of pain, it is not difficult to guess how much pain the person on the bed is in at this moment. The skin color that was originally considered pale now has a distinct light pink color, and he even gasps slightly because of the heart-piercing pain.
When Chu Cheng woke up again, it was almost evening. The system told him that no one had disturbed him during this time. The Golden Hat sent him a text message every hour, and meals were placed at the door.
Chu Cheng straightened up on the bed and rubbed his shoulders in pain. The long-term tension made his cervical spine a little uncomfortable. Now all the joints in his body were creaking, like old and dilapidated machinery.
"Damn..."
Chu Cheng's stable and even indifferent attitude after entering the Wanjie Continent caused a dramatic fluctuation today. In his previous life, he was half a medicine jar and needed to rely on medicine for a long time to stay alive, otherwise he would have trampled the Chu family under his feet long ago and would not give these idiots the opportunity to bite back and let him fall into the plane and come to another world.
Now, the system forced him to become a sickly person again, even worse than in his previous life. In his previous life, he just couldn't do strenuous exercise and couldn't eat many things, but now his body looks like it's about to die, and he gets a high fever at the slightest disturbance.
Chu Cheng looked down at the shirt hanging on his arm, and for a moment he didn't know what to wear. If he wore too much, he was afraid of heatstroke, and if he wore too little, he was afraid of catching a cold. His ability is still to control ice. If the affected area is too large, he will inevitably get seriously ill again.
Thinking of this, Chu Cheng's tongue tip rubbed across his canine teeth fiercely. After coming to the Wanjie Continent for so many days, he has his own considerations for every step. This is the first time that he has been severely tricked by a comic without his knowledge. Is the comic trying to intimidate him? Tell him not to consider the soft policy and gain more popularity faster?
But what is the purpose? Chu Cheng never understood this. The characters in this world are so bad that they need to drag someone from the real world to maintain the popularity. Could it be that he has already foreseen the bad ending? Chu Cheng lamented that he actually had the mind to make a cold joke.
After weighing the pros and cons, Chu Cheng still wore the black clothes that exposed more skin, spent some popularity points to add a constant temperature, and put on the scarf that looked very expensive. Since he had the debuff of sickness, Chu Cheng had to find a way to turn it into a weapon. He knew that many people liked this kind of weak-looking character, and wearing a scarf just neutralized his madness.
As for why he didn't buy a constant temperature prop at the beginning, he didn't plan to wear only one set of clothes. He thought that he would change clothes after a period of time to ensure freshness. It would be too wasteful to add a constant temperature device to each set of clothes. But now the money has to be spent.
Since he has slept for a day, Chu Cheng doesn't plan to waste time. He wants to go out and study the city of Bellit. At first, he just thought that the laws of the Wanjie Continent led to some strange-looking buildings and institutional systems in Bellit. But he checked it himself and found that it was not the case.
Bellit has human experiments, a curiosity auction house that kidnaps people, and a casino. All of these are public, and there is no intention to hide them. But other countries don't have these. Not to mention human trafficking, even going on a business trip requires strict household registration review. Many people on the Internet complain about this.
Bellit is like a melting pot. It has both magnificent natural scenery and dirty underground transactions. These lights and wine are intertwined and crisscrossed, weaving a huge net over the heads of tourists and residents, covering everyone's head. Chu Cheng is far from being able to touch the level of weaving the net. The source of the threads of weaving the net is complicated.
Chu Cheng's first step is to take over the gray area of Bellit. This is not an easy task. You must understand the rules here and join their network of relationships. If you are not careful, you will be easily attacked by the crowd and there is no way back. But Chu Cheng felt his blood boiling, this was a game with the future as the bet, and he was the only gambler in the field.
Chu Cheng did not choose to go out through the main door, but after observing for a while, he chose to climb out directly from the window. Before he figured out how to restrain the Golden Hat forcefully, he was not very willing to deal with the Golden Hat.
Originally, Chu Cheng wanted to disguise himself, after all, he was now half-stepping into the gray area, and there must be a lot of people eyeing this piece of fat meat of his. After two days, he didn't believe that the news of the change of ownership of the auction house had not spread, but he couldn't afford the disguise tools in the system mall now. If he still tied a bandage like on the train, it would not be impossible, but Chu Cheng didn't want to use this body as a lobster now, it was too unsafe.
Since you can't disguise yourself properly, you might as well show it openly. Your fearless attitude is also quite intimidating.
The auction house has been closed for the past few days. According to news, the next Chamber of Commerce will be on the first of next month. Chu Cheng still has more than 20 days to prepare, which is quite ample, so the auction house can be put aside for the time being. The next thing Chu Cheng has to do now is to find a way to get a casino, or an entertainment venue of a related nature.
Chu Cheng must now find a way to stretch his hands and reach out to various underground forces. The casino is a very special place. Ordinary people may rely on a game to turn over and cross the class, or they may lose their families and divorce their children. More importantly, you will come into contact with people of all kinds and levels in it.
The casino is not like an auction house. You can't enter without basic funds. But the casino is not like that. As long as you dare to play at the table, the price is not the same. From high-ranking officials to small merchants, everyone can have a try. And this kind of place is also one of the most developed areas for gray transactions. If Chu Cheng can do it, he will definitely be able to sit in the top three seats in the handover area.
But taking over the casino is not like taking over the Sobek Auction House. Most of the Sobek Auction House is a simple money flow, not involving interpersonal communication, and the people it contacts are also quite limited. If you like, you can buy it, and it has nothing to do with the owner of the auction house. Even if Chu Cheng blatantly changes the owner, it will not affect anyone's interests. Taxes should be paid, and no one should be delayed.
But the casino offers too many things, and the forces involved are even more complicated. Chu Cheng needs a legitimate reason, a reason that can show his ability and skills. Otherwise, if others look down on him and withdraw their people, his place will be ruined.
Unlike the last time he went to look for Willdon, this time Chu Cheng followed the system's map and took a shortcut, walking through the alleys and avoiding the crowds
[Host, 3 people at 4 o'clock, 2 people at 10 o'clock]
[Got it]
After Chu Cheng walked into a small alley, he slipped in at a corner, stepped on the ladder made of ice and jumped to the top of the building in no time. It was already dusk, and the dim sky became Chu Cheng's best protective color. He stood on the top of the house, looking coldly at the five people who followed him into the corner but missed.
Chu Cheng raised his hand, pretended to draw a bow, and condensed an ice bow in his hand. As the hand pulling the string loosened, the air seemed to be split by something. When the man heard the sound of breaking wind and raised his head
, a bloody hole appeared on his head in the next second, and a crystal made of blood, like a stalactite, stuck out from behind his head. The people around him immediately realized that they were in a bad situation, but it was too late. As Chu Cheng jumped down from the high building and stood up lightly, the five people behind him fell to the ground one by one, raising some dust. The
sudden increase of particles in the air made Chu Cheng, who was now extremely sensitive, feel a little uncomfortable. He could only pull up the scarf to cover his mouth and nose, frowned and coughed twice,
"This broken body..."
Chu Cheng rubbed his nose and complained.
[Host, are you okay?]
[A rebellious son who still cares about his father]
[It's not me who made the host like this... The host should work harder! ! Otherwise, what will I do if the buffs are stacked again next time?]
[Of course I know, you'd better bless me to be in the camera tonight]
