......

After dinner, after Jieluo returned to the room to review her homework, Roland came to the door of 0827 as agreed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After a few taps on the door, the door creaked open.

Garcia still had that cold expression, "Come in." ”

Walking into the house, Roland found that her decoration was much better than her apartment, the floor was replaced with a solid wood floor, a special shoe cabinet was placed at the door, a crystal chandelier was installed on the top of her head, and even the white paint on the wall was repainted. Just look at the finish, you can know that it is by no means the original paint that was pre-painted in the early days of the tube building.

"I don't have any extra slippers, you can wear mine first," she said, gesturing to a pair of fluffy rabbit-eared slippers at the bottom of the shoe cabinet, "I like to wear large ones, and they shouldn't be too small for you." ”

Roland tried to put his feet in the shoes, which were not small, but these were winter slippers, and he felt hot when he put them on, and the two fluffy rabbit ears on the slippers were ...... He couldn't imagine what Garcia would look like in these slippers.

It's not good for her indifference to rejecting people thousands of miles away, okay?

He walked over to the couch and sat down, "By the way, do you have any water to drink here? ”

Garcia frowned and glanced at him, "Only the ice ones." ”

"Let's be icy, then. ”

Taking advantage of her turn to go to the kitchen, Roland looked into the back room—all the units in the building were basically the same, except that the two adjacent units were symmetrical. 0827 is next door to the next door, so this passage directly facing the gate must lead to the utility room.

Sure enough, he saw a similarly sized compartment at the end of the passage, though Garcia had apparently renovated it and replaced it with a sliding shutter. The good news is that this sliding door is generally not locked, and the bad news is that she will tear down the iron door and rebuild the exterior wall during the renovation?

By the time Garcia returned to the living room with the water, Roland had pretended to be nothing, leaning back on the couch and enjoying the TV show.

"Thank you," he picked up his glass, "You live here alone?During the parent-teacher meeting in the morning, they all said that you were the ...... of the Sanye family."

"I'm not," Garcia interrupted coldly, "Sanye has nothing to do with me, and can even be said to be an enemy. ”

"Enemy?" Roland was stunned, "what about your cousin......"

"They just saw this and wanted my cousin to persuade me to go back," she looked a little depressed, "If I leave, the group will be able to let go of the building." ”

"So the mall expansion plan next door is a project of the Shamrock Group?"

"Otherwise, who would dare to openly demolish these cultural relics?" Garcia wondered, "Why don't you even know about this when you live in a tube building?"

To be bad...... The other party is not Jieluo, but an adult with a mature mind, if he inherits the character of the three princesses, it will be even more difficult to bluff.

"Ahem...... I rarely care about things in the streets, and I lost my job a while ago, and I haven't been out for almost half a year," Roland quickly changed the subject, "The martial artist you said has other jobs besides participating in competitions?"

"That's right, the competition is equivalent to a competition and a trial, and promoting martial arts to the audience and winning prize money is not the most important thing, but fighting the erosion of the outside world is our first priority. ”

"What erosion?" he wondered.

"You know the Fallen Demons, they are one of them, and the most common of them - not those who have awakened the forces of nature and lose control of their powers, but the erosion of the outside world that has turned them into another creature. Garcia said in a deep voice, "Ordinary force can do very little damage to the Fallen Demons, so we need to stand up against them. ”

Roland couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and a faint uneasy premonition rose in his heart...... The dream world is eroded?

"What exactly does the outside world mean?"

"I can't tell you too much about this unless you join the Martial Arts Association and get a hunting license. ”

"Why?"

"Because not all those who have awakened the power of nature will be on the side of the martial artists. Garcia said word by word, "There are many people who even want outside forces to enter our world, and they are hostile to all of humanity, so the hunting license not only allows to fight against the degenerate, but also allows the martial artists to kill those awakened people who try to disturb the stability of society." ”

That's why it's called a hunting license, Roland suddenly felt a little creepy. In other words, if you are confirmed to have awakened the forces of nature, and you are unwilling to join the association, will you not be regarded by them as a natural enemy?

As if seeing his concern, Garcia shook her head, "It is true that there are some people who are neither willing to join the Martial Arts Association nor want to serve those who are extremely vicious, and such people are called centrists. The Guild wouldn't do anything to them, but the Fallen are different...... Since most centrists prefer to act alone, they are often attacked by the enemy. So if you don't plan to join the association, it's best to never expose your power. ”

Looking at the "Three Princesses" who talked a lot, Roland couldn't help but feel a little strange, she always looked indifferent, but in fact it was not so difficult to communicate. Thinking back to the scene when he first met, he even thought that the other party was a proud lady who usually didn't like to look at people squarely.

After he euphemistically expressed his doubts, what he got was the other party's ruthless eyes, "Your first reaction when you see me is to touch the weapon behind your back, do I still want to give you a good look? Fortunately, you didn't take out the weapon, otherwise you would have to go to the hospital to get a plaster." ”

Just then, Garcia's cell phone rang. She glanced at the screen and couldn't help frowning, "I'll answer the phone." ”

After saying that, she picked up her phone and walked into the bedroom, and closed the door with her hand.

Apparently she didn't want Roland to hear what was going on.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Roland immediately stood up, took off his rabbit-eared slippers, and walked briskly to the end of the aisle barefoot.

Through the cracks in the shutters, he could already see what was stored in the cubicle - Garcia had actually converted it into a cloakroom! In addition to all kinds of dresses, there were also a lot of women's underwear.

However, nothing stopped him from seeking the truth of the world.

Without hesitation, Roland pushed open the shutter door and walked in with the fragrance of clothes.

After stepping past the layers of clothing, an iron-blue door appeared in front of him! and he noticed that there was no padlock on the door, but the handle was covered with a layer of dust, which contrasted sharply with the clean walls around him.

Had Garcia never been in or out of this door of memory?

But now was not the time to dwell on this, Roland took a deep breath and gently opened the door open a gap.

The salty smell of sea water instantly poured into his nostrils, and the sound of splashing across the beach could be heard in the distance, and the turquoise sea was like a vast and boundless curtain, slowly unfolding in front of his eyes.
