Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 177 A Dignity (First Update)
"We have arrived at Hongxiang Village. Passengers who are getting off please move to the back door. The next stop is Laoguai Street."

As the car drove into the road Xiao Ran was familiar with again, he could see from afar that the fire was still burning under the forest.

"Isn't this the mysterious city that was discovered not long ago? How did it become like this?"

Apple looked at the fire in the distance and couldn't help muttering.

Xiao Ran was sitting in the back seat at the moment. When he heard what Ping Guo said, he didn't dare to say anything. After all, the tiger and the spirit snake both died in there. No one else knew about this, but the Changchun Association would definitely investigate it.

If I leak any information, I believe Changchun will investigate it soon.

But as he looked at the fire outside, he couldn't help but think of Mo Ju.

Thinking of the sorrow that unintentionally flashed in her eyes when she looked back at me when she sent me out that day, I couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in my heart.

"durian!"

At this time Xigua suddenly turned his head to look at Xiao Ran: "What are you going to do with that guy?"

Xigua pointed at Shen Kuaidao behind him.

"I am a corpse receiver, so I will handle it as a corpse receiver."

Although everyone had expected this result, after hearing Xiao Ran's words, they still silently mourned for Shen Kuaidao for three seconds.
To fall into the hands of a corpse receiver is worse than to fall into the hands of a robber.

After all, robbers can directly plunder items in the space. There is no need to torture you, snatch your things, and then turn around and kill you with a knife.

But once you fall into the hands of the corpse receiver, life is worse than death, and you can't expect to feel comfortable even after death.

"Well, this guy is a wanted criminal of the company. When you go back, you can ask the company for the reward. It seems that his reward is quite high."

Watermelon reminded kindly.

At this time, Apple beside him added: "The bounty is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that you have completed the company's wanted mission. The company will give you a special score. This score is useless, but it is related to all aspects of your life in reality. The higher the score, the higher the policy points you will get."

"I'm not an official, so this thing doesn't seem to be of any use, right?"

"Who says it's useless? Take the newcomers for example. If your score is high, the supervision period will be shortened. It will take you one month instead of three months for others. In addition, the higher your score is, the more rewards your supervisor will receive. If your supervisor is rewarded, you will also get extra benefits. When you run into trouble, you can ask your supervisor to protect you."

Speaking of supervisors, Xigua couldn't help but ask, "Which district are you from? I have the strength information of supervisors in various districts. Do you want me to check it for you?"

"I roughly know who my supervisor is, so there's no need to check that."

As they were talking, the car had stopped at the station. It was here that Xiao Ran met four beggars, so he couldn't help but stick his head out to take a look.

However, to Xiao Ran's disappointment, there were no passengers at this stop.

As the car started again, Apple reminded, "You'd better get rid of this guy as soon as possible. He must have someone to pick him up at the mountain temple. If you take him out of the car directly, it will probably cause a lot of trouble."

"understood!"

Xiao Ran nodded to show that he understood.

He turned around and walked to the back row, took out a few silver needles from the space, and quickly stabbed them into Shen Kuaidao's body.

After a few injections, Shen Kuaidao's breathing gradually became steady and his consciousness recovered after a moment. He coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood. When he opened his eyes, he saw Xiao Ran sitting next to him and he couldn't help but want to attack.

However, as soon as he moved, he was hit by a piercing pain.

"Oh!!"

The pain surged throughout his body, and at this moment, Shen Kuaidao could not help but scream. Seeing this, the other people in the car pretended not to hear anything. Some put on headphones, some silently picked up their phones to watch TV series, and some were so bored that they just got together to play poker.

"It hurts a lot."

Xiao Ran observed Shen Kuaidao's injuries calmly, "It's terrible. Unless you are sent to the emergency room of a tertiary hospital immediately, it may be difficult to save you."

"you……"

Shen Kuaidao was in so much pain that he couldn't even speak. As soon as he opened his mouth he could feel his lungs vibrating at the sound of his own voice.

"Don't get excited, we still have a business to discuss."

Xiao Ran signaled Shen Kuaidao to calm down and continued to give him acupuncture: "There are two ways. One is that I kill you and give you a quick and decent death, but the price is that I need those cursed objects and ghost money in your space. The other way is that I will kill you, make your life worse than death, and finally destroy your soul, so that you will never be reborn." Shen Kuaidao looked ashen, and he was not so excited at this time. He knew that he would not survive today no matter what.

Shen Kuaidao didn't want to choose either of the two paths Xiao Ran gave him, but Xiao Ran didn't give him a third choice:

"Don't think about committing suicide. You've also read the Changchun Society's professional scoring manual, right? Do you remember what the best combination of corpse receivers is? Pharmacist, you don't think I'll give you the right to commit suicide, do you?"

Of course Xiao Ran is not a pharmacist, but that doesn't stop him from trying to scare Shen Kuaidao.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Shen Kuaidao's pupils shrank slightly, and he looked at Xiao Ran as if he was looking at an evil ghost.

"It's getting late. If you haven't decided on your next stop, I'll have to choose for you."

Xiao Ran did not intend to give Shen Kuaidao the opportunity to delay time. Once they arrived at Guaizi Village, the Shenxian Temple was behind them. A one-stop distance was enough for him.

Maybe due to excessive blood loss, Shen Kuaidao's face turned extremely pale. He stared at Xiao Ran for a long time before closing his eyes and shaking out everything in his space.

There weren't many things but they were a mess, such as several large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, and no one knew where this guy had stolen them from, two spell scrolls, four cursed objects, five 100-dollar ghost banknotes, and a bag of miscellaneous ghost banknotes. These were certainly not all of Shen Kuaidao's belongings, and I believed that there were many more things that were hidden by Shen Kuaidao.

But these were indeed all the items he had on him.

Xiao Ran stuffed all these things into his own space. Fortunately, all the things in his space had been vacated and the number of these things was not too many, otherwise he would have been unable to fit them all.

Apple and the others could only stare with envy at this, but since Xiao Ran had severely injured Shen Kuaidao on his own, they had no participation and no effort, so naturally they had no right to share.

"Anything else you want to say? Or any last wishes?"

After collecting the things, Xiao Ran turned around and asked Shen Kuaidao. Shen Kuaidao didn't expect Xiao Ran to ask him another question. He couldn't help but sneer sarcastically, and said while enduring the great pain: "The mercy of the victor?"

"You can understand it that way, or you can say that I'm giving you some respect. We don't actually have any big grudges, but I prefer to root out the problem."

If it were in real life, the conflict between the two might be just a question like "what are you worried about?"

But it doesn't work here. After the archer tried to kill him but was dodged, Xiao Ran realized that his idea of keeping a low profile this time had failed.

Since we are going to take action, we must not give the other party a chance to breathe.

There is no such thing as legitimate defense or excessive defense for Xiao Ran.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Hearing this, Shen Kuaidao couldn't help laughing, tears flashing in the corners of his eyes, looking at Xiao Ran: "I actually want to be friends with you when I'm about to die."

After saying that, Shen Kuaidao used all his strength to sit up straight: "Give me a sip of the beheading wine."

"some!"

Xiao Ran took out a bottle of white wine from the space. He didn’t know what brand it was, but it was a gift from Jiucai anyway.

Shen Kuaidao opened his mouth and Xiao Ran poured the white wine directly into it.

"Gu dong... gu dong..."

Shen Kuaidao drank half a bottle of 52° liquor with tears in his eyes. After a moment, his whole face turned red and his body didn't seem to hurt so much.

“It’s awesome!!”

Xiao Ran raised the white wine in his hand and took a sip: "Have a safe journey!"

As he said this, he raised his hand and inserted a silver needle straight into Shen Kuaidao's forehead.

Xiao Ran didn't know whether it hurt or not, but Shen Kuaidao's pupils just tightened for a moment, and then he completely stopped breathing.

Xiao Ran was not in a hurry to put the corpse away. He waited patiently for a while, and then he pierced the sky gate with a needle. The soul would soon flow out of the body.

After a while, Shen Kuaidao's hand fell to the ground without warning, and a wisp of green smoke floated out from Shen Kuaidao's forehead and drifted out through the gap in the car window.

Xiao Ran stood up and looked behind the car through the rear window, and saw Shen Kuaidao's back gradually moving away...
