Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 37 No. Middle School
"We have arrived at the Fifth Hospital. Passengers getting off please move to the back door..."

"Pfft!"

The car door opened and shadows walked out from the back door.

"Oh my god, you are so shameless, you are bullying me, an old woman!"

As soon as I got off the car, I saw the old lady with a sad face standing under the car window, crying and angrily denounced the injustice she felt.

It's bad enough that they fined us, but they also checked our tickets. That's totally unjust.

As he said this, he glared at Xiao Ran behind the car window viciously, wishing he could tear this bastard into pieces.

Seeing this, the other passengers who got off the bus all looked at the old lady with sympathy.

Especially the middle-aged man who got off the bus after the old lady.

With the old lady as an example, when Xiao Ran checked the ticket for the second time, the middle-aged man immediately became scared and paid the fine quickly and efficiently. Although it was three times the ticket price, compared with the old lady's result, it was already a huge profit.

The old lady cursed through the window, not satisfied yet. Her other hand reached for her waist and said, "You bastard, come down if you have the guts. Look at me... me... um? Where's my knife?"

The old lady fumbled for a while, even lifting up her belt, but she couldn't find the machete on her waist.

When I looked up, I saw Xiao Ran standing behind the car window, waving a strangely shaped machete in his hand.

"My knife!!"

The old lady's voice suddenly rose an octave and she jumped up and rushed to the car.

But I didn't expect that at this moment, the door closed with a "click".

"Bang bang bang..."

"Open the door, open the door! Thief, robber, open the door or I will fight you!!"

The old lady banged on the door frantically.

Huang Le heard the noise and leaned against the window to look at the crazy old lady. He turned around and looked at Xiao Ran who was sitting back in the chair: "What's wrong with her?"

"You lost something." Xiao Ran said nonchalantly, playing with the machete he had just obtained. "But it shouldn't be something important. My grandfather said that anything you put on your waist or in your butt pocket is worthless garbage."

The old lady's banging on the door didn't last long. The driver had no intention of opening the door for her and just stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.

"Robber, thief!!"

Looking at the bus that quickly disappeared from her sight, the old lady howled weakly for a while, then sat down on the ground with a sad face and burst into tears.

"What a knife!"

Xiao Ran looked at the machete in his hand. The knife was not long and was shaped more like a meat cleaver. It was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. There was a deep blood groove on the blade and no one knew what material the black blade was forged from.

It looks heavy, but it feels very light in the hand.

The only regret is that this knife is not a cursed object.

After putting the knife away, Xiao Ran thought for a moment and handed the knife in his hand to Huang Le.

"You will get off at the next stop. This knife is for your self-defense."

"Oh, thanks bro."

Huang Le was overjoyed when he saw this. Although knives were not rare, it was better to have a knife for self-defense in this place than to be unarmed.

"No, there's nothing else to teach you. Just be careful and don't trust anyone easily."

Xiao Ran had a pretty good impression of Huang Le, at least the cooperation was good just now. But there were some things he couldn't explain too much to him. After all, he had to face the problems in the trial by himself, and he didn't know the content of the trial.

As for the cursed objects and spell patterns, there is no way to explain them. We can only wait until Huang Le passes this level himself.

There were still a few passengers on the bus. Xiao Ran could see clearly who had no tickets and who had them, but he did not continue checking tickets.

After all, Huang Le will get off at the next stop, and he will also have to get off at the next stop.

There's no need to offend all of these people.

People can't do anything to you when you're in the car, but that may not be the case once you get off the car.

Besides, I have indeed made a lot of money along the way.

The fine plus the fare supplement was five dollars for the old man, eight dollars for the old lady, and three dollars for an honest middle-aged passenger, plus an F-level cursed lighter and the knife that had just been purchased.

After deducting the five dollars of paper money that he would give to the driver later, he made a net profit of eleven dollars. Adding the three dollars of paper money he originally had in his hand, Xiao Ran instantly felt like his pockets were bulging.

But the biggest gain was that he had forcibly taken the Kong Kong Miao Shou from Mei San.

It’s simply a magical skill for earning foreign exchange.

If he wasn't about to reach his station, Xiao Ran estimated that he could have made a fortune directly by being a ticket inspector.

"Ding! We have arrived at [Jiao Mu Village], passengers getting off the bus are ready to move to the back door."

The car soon arrived at a village. Looking through the window, it was pitch black outside. Houses stood there with no lights on. The air was filled with a smell like coke.

"Brother, I'm getting off the bus now. Thank you for taking care of me along the way. If I survive, I'll definitely have a drink with you." "Okay!"

Xiao Ran nodded, left his contact information for Huang Le, and watched Huang Le get off the car.

Huang Le stepped out of the car, and his figure became blurred and disappeared in front of Xiao Ran as if he had entered another world.

"Ding, next stop, No. 7 Middle School. Passengers getting off please move to the back door."

No one got on the bus at this stop, so the driver closed the door early and started the car moving forward.

Xiao Ran stood up from his seat, walked to the driver, and placed the red armband and seven paper money on the cup holder next to the driver.

The driver took a look at the amount of money on it, took the money in one hand and weighed it a few times, listening to the crisp sound of the paper money colliding, and a smile like licking honey appeared on his bear-like face.

"Five dollars, what do you mean by giving me seven dollars?"

"The success of this project is also due to your prestige. I would feel bad if you don't accept it, big brother."

"Hey!" The driver curled his lips. He knew that Xiao Ran was trying to gain advantage by taking advantage of the situation, but he was still happy in his heart. After all, who would feel bad about money?

He put the money away and gave the red armband to Xiao Ran. "Come often when you have the chance. I'm always losing money on this line and I need someone to help me sort it out. If you're free, come and help me."

"okay."

Xiao Ran put away the red armband with a smile.

This cursed object is small, the key is to get on the driver's good side. If you get into trouble in the future, the worst that can happen is to hide in the car, at worst you can save your life.

"【Side Quest: Temporary Ticket Inspector】 has been completed. The reward will be settled after this maze is over."

When the driver took the money, Xiao Ran also received a prompt sound.

According to the prompts when he entered the mystery city, he only needed to complete three side quests to leave the mystery city. Now he had already completed one of them before he even reached the quest location. Xiao Ran was naturally in a very good mood.

"Seventh Middle School, right?"

At this time, the driver glanced at Xiao Ran and said, "That's not a good place."

Hearing this, Xiao Ran knew that the driver was reminding him, so he quickly asked, "Brother, this is my first time here. If I don't understand something, please give me some pointers so that I can learn more."

Xiao Ran said this, and calmly took out two coins and placed them on the cup holder.

"I don't know either." The driver glanced at the ghost money before continuing, "I only heard that the rules there are scary, but the real danger is those ghost stories. If you encounter something you don't understand when you go to school, you can go to the dormitory building to find Sister Li, the dormitory manager, and give this to her. She will help you."

As the driver spoke, he took out a small box from the storage box next to him and handed it to Xiao Ran.

When Xiao Ran opened the box, he found a pair of reading glasses inside.

"She got in my car last time and accidentally left it here."

"Lost?"

Xiao Ran was skeptical about the word, but still put the things away: "Thank you, brother."

The driver nodded and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran tactfully sat back in his seat.

It was only about five or six minutes' walk before the outline of a campus appeared in the distance.

"Ding, we've arrived at No. 7 Middle School. Passengers getting off please move to the back door."

As the horn sounded in the car, Xiao Ran also stood up and walked to the back door. Seeing this, the other passengers in the car also stayed in their seats and had no intention of getting up and getting off.

Just wait for the vehicle to slowly pull over and then with a "click" the door opens.

Xiao Ran stood in front of the car door and looked outside for a while. He saw an empty street in front of him. The school gate across the street was covered with rust, and the entire campus was shrouded in a layer of black shadow.

Just wait for him to get out of the car and walk towards the school gate across the street.

"Hey!"

Xiao Ran turned around and saw the driver shouting at him through the car window: "Remember to check your ticket."

As he spoke, he started the car and quickly disappeared from Xiao Ran's sight.
"ticket?"

He reached into his pocket and found that the original ticket was gone, replaced by a blood-stained student ID.

The blood stains had blurred the photo on the student ID card.

At this time, the bloodstains on it seemed to come alive, and a line of bloody words began to appear on it in a twisted manner.
