Chapter 8
Chapter 8
The classification situation was announced on Friday, and as expected, Nijiu was assigned to Class F.
Surprisingly, Ryan ranked No.14 in the bottom of his grade and was also assigned to Class F.When Nijiu and Ryan met at the door of Class F, Nijiu was too shocked to speak.
No matter what, it is impossible for people with spiritual power in Level.3 to be assigned to the last class.
"Ryan?" Nijiu couldn't believe it, "Why are you here?"
Ryan looked at Nijiu with empty eyes.He replied: "My defense test score yesterday was the bottom one, and my written test score was only 91."
"A score of 91 is not low." Nijiu asked, "What is the total score of the written test, 150?"
Ryan showed a relieved smile: "250, the passing line is 190 points."
Nijiu: "..."
There are not many classes on Friday, and it is time for school to end in a blink of an eye.
This is the first vacation of this semester. The teachers did not assign homework, and let the students use these two days to adjust their status and adapt to high school life.
Ryan is short on daily necessities, and Nezuto is preparing to hit the black market.The two hit it off and decided to go to Scarborough.
Scarborough, the financial center of the empire, is also the most prosperous business district.The black market that Samuel mentioned was located near Scarborough.
After arriving in Scarborough, Ryan received a notice from the class group: [The inter-school sports meeting will be held in the middle of next month, and the intra-school tryout will be held next Monday.Registration starts today and closes on Sunday. ]
"Xiaojiu!" He handed the optical brain to Nijiu, and asked, "The interschool sports meeting will be in a month, do you want to participate?"
Neito was looking at Scarborough's map, and replied casually, "I'm not good at sports."
"But this competition will be included in the next scheduling score. If you don't participate, the score will be recorded as 0 points."
Nijiu didn't hear Ryan's words clearly, his attention was attracted by a blank area on the map.Nijiu pointed to the area and asked Ryan, "Where is this?"
"Did you not listen to me at all..." Ryan glanced at the map and pointed to the southwest, "It's a black market over there. It's not included in the map because it's a legal gray area."
Nijiu's eyes lit up, and he asked again: "What is the black market?"
Nijiu's voice was not low, and the people around heard this sentence, and their eyes glanced at him vaguely.
Ryan was taken aback and lowered his voice: "Shh, keep your voice down... Everything sold on the black market is illegal. If we are found to have been to the black market, the school will punish us."
"Selling illegal goods? Won't the security team arrest them?"
The security team that Nijiu mentioned is the law enforcement organization of Emperor Star, which directly belongs to the ruler.
Ryan couldn't hide his words, and replied mysteriously: "Not only the security team, but even the imperial police and army are incapable of managing this place. The manager of the black market is someone else."
Nijiu's heart sank when he heard this.The black market is too dangerous. If you go to the black market with Ryan, I am afraid that he will be punished by the school.There must be a way to separate from Ryan.
Nijiu stopped and covered her forehead: "Ryan, I feel a little dizzy, I seem to have a fever."
Nijiu is not good at lying, he stuttered this sentence, and a discerning eye could tell it was not true.
Fortunately, Ryan is not a discerning person.
"Fever?" Ryan was convinced of Nijiu's nonsense, and reached out to touch Nijiu's forehead, "You go to the coffee shop to have a rest. There should be antipyretics here, what else do you need to buy? I'll help you."
After Ryan left, Nijiu immediately turned around and walked quickly towards the black market.
The black market is next to the Scarborough business district, separated only by a narrow street.From the outside, the black market is not much different from the ordinary market, except that it is a bit shabby, and there are dilapidated houses everywhere.
This place is more lively than Nijiu imagined.People hurried into the shop, most of them wore hoods to hide their appearance.
Nezuka put on her hat too, and looked around from under the brim.
In front of a shop, there are several pieces of strangely colored meat hanging.Nijiu took a closer look and found that it was a severed limb of the Zerg.
The Zerg has powerful power. After the spirit beast eats the Zerg's limbs, its spiritual power can be improved.Therefore, in the era of commercial intercommunication between humans and Zerg, many wealthy people would buy Zerg parts to feed spirit beasts.
However, humans and the Zerg had already cut off commercial ties, and a protective layer was erected to separate the wormholes on the border of the empire. How could the corpses of the Zerg appear on the Emperor Star?
Nijiu walked into a nearby bar with doubts.
He didn't know anything about this place. If he ran around like a headless chicken, he might not be able to find the old man in the early morning.
In order to make herself less conspicuous, Nijito bought a glass of wine.He came to the corner of the bar, intending to strike up a conversation with the bartender.
However, as soon as Nijiu sat down, a bearded man walked towards him, sat down beside him with a bang, and interrogated: "Boy, is this your first visit to the black market? What are you doing here?"
Nijiu shook her hands, and immediately uttered the lie that she had silently recited dozens of times: "I... I'm short of money recently, and I want to sell some jewelry at home."
Nijiu said this lie with a very unnatural expression, she fell off in a cold sweat, and even her voice was a little unsteady.
Fortunately, the light here is dim and the noise is loud, so Nijiu's poor acting skills are not exposed.
"You have it with you?" The bearded man heard the word "jewellery", his eyes lit up.
"No, it's still at home."
"Stealing things from home." The bearded man sighed disappointedly, "I tell you, boy, if you want to trade here, you must meet someone."
Nijiu suddenly became interested: "Who?"
"Here, let me show you." The bearded man tore off a dirty napkin, dipped his fingers in some cigarette ash, drew a route on the napkin, and pointed to a small house: "Here is his chassis." .You can only trade on the black market with his permission."
Nijiu pretended to be stupid and asked, "Who is he?"
"Our eldest brother, the manager of the black market. You don't need to inquire about his identity, the less you know, the better." Luhuhu said, copying a string of numbers on paper, "This is my contact information, all your things are sold Give it to me, no need to find someone else."
Nejito finally found a clue.He set off to find Big Brother, throwing the dirty napkin in the trash as he left the bar.
Nijiu found the location of the "big brother" according to the instructions of the beard.
It was a small, unremarkable house, tucked away among the clutter of illegal buildings in the black market.Nijiu stepped forward and knocked on the door, but found that the door was not locked.
Nijiu walked into the house: "Hello, is anyone there?"
There was only one old man in the house, he was sitting on a chair, he was in good spirits: "What's the matter with you?"
Nijiu immediately moved out of the previous set of excuses: "I'm in trouble, and I'm in a hurry to exchange some jewelry at home for cash..."
"Don't lie, you're not here to make a deal." The old man saw through Nijiu's lie at a glance, and exposed him mercilessly, "If you have anything to say, don't go around with me."
Nijiu: "..."
No face left.
Nijiu felt that he might be the old man Samuel mentioned, and asked tentatively, "Do you know Samuel?"
"Samuel?" The old man obviously knew Samuel, and when he heard the name, his mood suddenly sank.He walked to the window and carefully closed the bulletproof window: "Are you someone sent by Samuel?—Could something be wrong again?"
"No." Nijiu waved his hand, "Mr. Samuel said, you know the truth about the treason case of the witch clan."
"So it's this matter..." The old man sat down on the sofa with a heavy tone, and poured a cup of black tea for Nijiu, "It's been so long, I didn't expect anyone to remember it."
Nijiu picked up the teacup, he found a dead fly floating in the tea, and put down the teacup without saying a word.
"The witch clan is slandered. They did nothing wrong at all." The old man paused, "The king is not a qualified monarch, he is a complete moth."
Shouts suddenly sounded outside, deafening.Nijiu found an excuse not to drink tea, and stood up: "What's going on outside? I'll go and have a look."
The streets downstairs were crowded with people, and the traders put away their shops in a panic and fled in all directions carrying their goods.In the distance, several people with guns were driving away vendors, firing warning shots from time to time.
The old man was a little dissatisfied with the noise outside: "This is a parade, we have to come every few days, don't worry about it—"
Before the old man finished his sentence, Nijiu heard a muffled sound behind him.Nijiu turned her head and found that the old man was lying on the sofa with a bloody eye on his forehead.
The old man's body was a little stiff, and his breathing stopped.He stared at the ceiling with angry eyes, his face was full of resentment and resentment.
It was a special bullet that took his life.On the opposite roof, a figure flashed past. The man was holding a slender sniper rifle.
This house is no longer safe.
Nijiu felt his limbs go cold.He forced himself to move his stiff legs, stumbled down the stairs and out of the house.
There was chaos on the street, but it was not the parade that caused the riot, but the security team.The imperial security team, which had never set foot in the black market, suddenly appeared in the black market, smashing the doors of shops and shops everywhere under the pretext of ordering the law and order.
Nijiu heard light footsteps coming from behind, he looked back and found someone sneaking behind him.
Nijiu's back felt cold, he turned and ran towards another alley, and the stalker also quickened his pace.
After entering the alley, Nijiu realized that this choice was a bad idea.A dozen or so meters away, a three-to-four-meter-high wall blocked the way, and Nijiu had no way to escape.
He gritted his teeth: "Anyway, I will be caught sooner or later, so I just fight him!"
Just when Nijiu was about to pick up a brick and fight the opponent desperately, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out from behind the corner.
Those hands covered Nijiu's mouth, dragged him backwards, and dragged him into the blind spot.That man was very strong, he used his shoulders to tightly block Nijiu in the corner, and covered his mouth with his hand.
Nijiu felt that he was surrounded by the spiritual power of that person.His spiritual power was extremely cold, covering Nijiu's skin like an ice layer, making his whole body chill.
The young man leaned down and whispered to Nijiu, "Don't talk, hold your breath."
Nijiu tried her best to turn her head, barely seeing his face.
The man wears a mask, revealing only a pair of eyes.His eyes were black and gold, and his gaze was fierce, like a ferocious wolf.
