  Chapter 154 Exchanging clues

  When people who are newcomers hear those horror stories passed down by word of mouth in the streets and alleys, they usually have two reactions.

   There is another kind of belief, like those two strong men, Wang Qiao, and Gao Baimei, who are too scared to stay in the hotel.

  Sun Jirou is the former, so when Xu Huo said seriously about the restaurant, she didn't take it seriously.

   Judging by his attitude now, she wasn't quite sure that he really believed the locals and avoided the Bear Claw Restaurant just by luck.

   "Aren't we on the same boat now?" Wang Qiao said: "What good is hiding the clues for you? In such a big fairy tale city, can you complete the task by yourself?"

   "That's right." Xu De waved his fingers in satisfaction, "Even without you, I can complete the task. I just came here to give you a chance to hitch a ride."

  He glanced at Sun Jirou while he was speaking, "It depends on whether you are on the right track."

  Although he had ulterior motives, Sun Jirou was not angry, "The terms can be negotiated."

   The rest of the people looked at each other and had to compromise.

  Wang Qiao said unwillingly: "The premise is that you have to ensure that your clues are useful."

   "Of course," Xu Huo pointed to the notice board, and then said to Sun Jiju, "Go over there and have a look, and you will know that I didn't cheat you yesterday."

   "Isn't it just the bulletin board?" Gao Baimei glanced at it, not understanding what he meant.

  Shen Tai beside Sun Jirou walked over and walked half a circle around the bulletin board before discovering the articles inside. He turned around and said, "All behind this are rewards for missing persons."

  Sun Jirou and the others hurried over, only to find that the back of the bulletin board was densely covered with small palm-sized pieces of paper, all of which were different missing person notices, and there were nearly a hundred of them after a rough calculation.

   "So many locals are missing?" Tao Chengxin frowned.

   "How do you know they are locals?" Gao Baimei asked subconsciously.

   "Who will offer a reward for finding tourists from other places?" Wang Qiao said impatiently: "The ones who will find someone must be locals."

   "That's right." Sun Jirou also saw the problem, "These people all disappeared near the accommodation area."

  She looked at Xu Huo, "You found out yesterday?"

  Xu Huo snapped his fingers, "How is it? Is my sincerity enough?"

   Several people came back here and sat down to talk again.

   "What do you want?" Sun Jirou cut to the point.

"You can exchange things, or spend money to buy them." Xu Huo said: "I am a very talkative person. If the clues I provide are useless, I can return the things to you after the task is over. The premise is that if anyone completes the task , you have to take me with you."

   "How do you ensure that someone will tell you how to clear the level after completing the task?" Tao Chengxin said: "This dungeon may not be a collective dungeon. Someone must leave the dungeon as soon as they clear the level. Why tell you?"

   "I'm not sure." Xu Huoman said indifferently: "That's why I have to collect a little benefit in advance."

   "However, if this dungeon is a collective dungeon, one person clears the customs and all members clear the customs. Wouldn't this save us a lot of time?"

   "It seems to make sense. The task time is only three days. It has been almost a day now, and we haven't found anything." Tang Yuan thought for a while.

  Sun Jirou didn't care about money, "How much white money do you want?"

   "Look at it." Xu Huo chuckled, "If you give more, I will say more, if you give less, I will say less."

   "Don't go too far." Wang Qiao said dissatisfied: "We also have some clues."

   "You can also sell it to me, or exchange it." Xu Huo said: "But whether to buy it or not is my business."

   The first person to pay was Tao Chengxin. She called a car and turned on the sunshade mode as soon as she got in the car to block the outside view.

   "You can make a total price." She said: "If the money is not enough, I can exchange it with you with other information."

   "Five thousand." Xu Huo said.

Tao Chengxin hesitated for a moment and gave Sanqian, "I got some news from the government office. It turns out that all the government personnel in Fairy Tale City have been replaced except for the highest level. The replacement personnel are players from other districts. They all belong to a company. .”

"what company?"

   "I didn't find out about this," she said: "People from the government office almost never come to Fairy Tale City except for transporting and receiving supplies."

  Xu Huo thought for a while and said, "Two thousand for you."

   "I have two clues. One, the mission should be related to the pollution incident twenty years ago. Two, the storyteller must be at least thirty-five years old."

  Tao Chengxin was not surprised by the first clue, but she was surprised by the second one, "Why thirty-five years old?"

   "I can't tell you that." Xu Huo smiled and said, "Or you can trade other clues."

  Tao Chengxin hesitated for a moment before saying: "You should be more specific. I have a characteristic that can identify the authenticity of words. Even if I finally find the person who tells the story, someone needs to identify whether the other person is telling the truth."

  Xu Huo became a little interested, "How far can it go?"

   "More than 20% will be judged as a lie." So Tao Chengxin knows that he is not lying.

  Xu Huo thought for a few seconds and said, "Okay, I can tell you about it."

   "The pollution incident 20 years ago can be pushed back at least two or three years. People over thirty-five may know the whole picture of this incident. The story required by the mission should cover this scope."

  Tao Chengxin glanced at him thoughtfully, and got out of the car after a few seconds of silence.

  The second person to come was Sun Jirou. Before she could speak, Xu Huo said directly: "Ten thousand white bills, no bargaining."

  Sun Jirou didn't counter the price at all, and paid the money directly.

  Xu Huo told the two clues as usual, and said with a smile: "For the sake of our journey together, I can tell you an additional piece of news."

  Sun Jirou stared at him.

   "This time, there are more than nine players."

   Crap.

  Sun Jirou pulled the corner of his mouth and left.

  The latter three only had two half-bought clues. They agreed on a time and place to meet again, and Wang Qiao and Gao Baimei left cursing.

   "Thank you for your patronage." Xu Huoxi saw them off with a smile on his face, and then took a taxi to the largest shopping mall in the center of Fairy Tale City.

   He stayed inside for about half an hour before he came out and contacted the explainer who gave him his business card before.

   The two met in True Love Square, and Xu Huo spent some money to ask the girl in a white skirt to be a tour guide for him, introducing the history and culture of Fairy Tale City.

  The whole afternoon, the two of them wandered around the Fairy Tale City. In the afternoon, it rained petals in the Fairy Tale City.

   Artificial rain of petals.

  Several oval-shaped spaceships hover over Fairy Tale City, releasing some small aircraft from time to time. They carry water and flower petals and throw them evenly towards the ground. The whole city is filled with the scent of flowers within ten minutes.

  The girl in the white dress reached out to pick up a few petals with water and chewed them in her mouth. Seeing Xu Huo looking at her, she explained: "This is also a regular program in Fairy Tale City. These rainwater are specially made sweet water, which can be eaten."

   "The customs of Fairy Tale City are well preserved." Xu Huo said.

  The girl in the white dress shook her head, "It's just a formality, not as good as before. I heard the old man say what the Fairy Tale City looked like before, and that is the real Fairy Tale City."

  Xu Huo had a smile on his face, and said casually: "Shouldn't people in fairy tales not be old? I haven't seen an old man on the street."
