Returning from the abyss

Chapter 186 Drunken Dream Red Makeup
The Seventh District and the Eighth District have always been the two major commercial and entertainment areas that go hand in hand. If the Eighth District is extremely developed in terms of commerce, trade and financial industries, then the Seventh District has gone to the extreme in terms of entertainment and gold sales.The biggest feature of the entire Seventh District is that it is active 24 hours a day. There will always be lively crowds on the streets at any time, especially around the iconic building Zuimenghongzhuang Building in the Seventh District. It can be said that there is no distinction between day and night, and there will always be countless of people squandering their money and their lives on nearby entertainment venues.

But on the other hand, if you are just a person, even your own parents will never be able to find you if you hide in the seventh district.

You can find a professional stylist to change your look at any roadside store, and provide cheap plastic surgery if necessary.As for tattoos and piercings, it is also easy to find, and it is guaranteed to come out in half an hour to change your face and start a new life.

Even so, Lu Ning didn't really need to do this.

She bought two sets of fancy clothes that didn't match her style at all from an avant-garde clothing store, as well as a blond wig and colored contact lenses, and then she found a bathhouse and asked for a cubicle at a very low price. someone.

This bathhouse is on a street behind Zuimeng Hongzhuang, and it is quite noisy outside at night.Perhaps because she was really tired this day, Lu Ning slowly fell asleep, and didn't wake up until the next day when the sky was getting dark.

At this time, the outside is still as lively as last night.Five forty--quite a bit early.Lu Ning took out the outfit she had prepared and changed into herself, then picked up her bag and left without attracting many people's attention.

The time to see Jiangshan Network is at 09:30 in the morning, and the location is a sports vocational college in the second district. It takes about four to ten minutes to take the bus from here.Lu Ning was not particularly anxious, so she went to the famous building of Zuimenghongzhuang first.

If it is said that the queen's golden crown corresponds to money, then drunk dream red makeup here is desire.

There are no exciting activities such as gambling here, but a gentle town that provides pleasure with thoughtful service.As long as you pay, you can buy all the services that can make you comfortable here. Even though everyone knows that this is an illusion, they would rather enjoy a moment of tranquility in this illusion.

When Lu Ning walked in with the current appearance, two handsome young men with a straight figure immediately stepped forward and smiled decently at her.

"Does this lady need the services of a guide?"

Lu Ning looked at the hall where people were coming and going, nodded, and asked, "Why are you only asking me?"

"Because you are a guest here for the first time." The man on the left bowed, "Then what kind of guide do you need? What are the requirements for age, gender and appearance?"

"You can do it." Lu Ning pointed at him, "How about introducing this place to me first?"

"Of course, your wish." The man chuckled, "My number is 2128, and I am very happy to serve you."

The height of Zuimenghongzhuang is 29 floors, which is the same as the Queen's Golden Crown. Every floor here provides a variety of considerate services. Anyone with a number plate will answer all your doubts about this place carefully. And don't ask who it is.

"The first floor is our front desk service floor, responsible for all project liaison arrangements, overall planning, guest reception, emergency and other things. This floor does not set up any entertainment items, because we think an open environment is not particularly suitable for guests who like privacy .”

"It is said that you don't provide any competitive game services here?"

"We don't think competition is suitable for a place designed to provide a sense of tranquility. People get motivated by competition, but we don't need customers to get motivated here, but to relax." The man explained with a smile, "please come with me to the elevator How about coming?"

Lu Ning nodded and walked towards the elevator.

"If you feel that life is too stressful, you might as well book a worry-free holiday service here, which is suitable for girls of your age and can let you enjoy a period of time without worrying about anything."

The elevator went to the sixth floor under his control.

"No matter what kind of life you want, you can customize it here. You can become a princess who is full of stars, and you can also enjoy a romantic relationship like in the game, or a dream that you want to fulfill from the bottom of your heart. We can do it For you."

"But it's all fake, right?"

"Although it is said that we can let you experience it at any time as long as you keep paying... But yes, we will not provide real life, and this is the only thing we can't." The male waiter turned his head and showed a somewhat apologetic look, " Because once the fakes become real, some people will take falsehoods as reality and pursue more unrealistic things. We don’t mind being a safe haven for customers when they encounter hardships in their lives, but Gentle Township is also a tomb of heroes. .”

"I understand."

Lu Ning looked up and found that the decoration colors here are mild green and clear blue. The air is soaked with a sweet smell, but it is not too strong.From time to time, there are couples passing by in pairs in the wide corridor. Lu Ning can easily tell which of them is the staff here through the badge, but everyone here is full of real happiness and joy.

Going further inside, the green carpet on the ground has turned into a real grass, and a small but delicate and elegant small park appears in front of you.In addition to couples, there are more people of all kinds gathered here. There are middle-aged couples with their student-like daughters here, young men pushing old people in wheelchairs to enjoy the shade under the trees, and others. Children climbed up and down the tree, while some adults under the tree looked at the children with concern and encouragement.

Among these people, the daughter, the young man, and the adult who looked after the child all wore badges.

"here it is……"

"Simulation community, the price here is not very expensive. Our people will form a family with you to live in this community. You can be in any capacity. This is a place for every person whose family is not healthy."

As soon as the male waiter finished explaining, the young man pushed the old man over.

"Good morning." The man greeted.

"Morning, is the old man tired?"

The old man nodded with a smile.

"Then go back to sleep. It's a good thing to be able to sleep when you are old." The male waiter let the two of them pass, and patted the man's shoulder, "Saxiu, let the old man come over after he falls asleep."

After the person left, Lu Ning asked: "Just now..."

"The old man who lost his own son to an attack at the Sacrifice Club, was overstimulated to a mental disorder and affected his memory, paid us for a lifetime service while his memory was still there .” The male waiter explained.

"Get someone to pretend to be your son?"

"Yes, this service will continue until his death. From this perspective, he has also become a real resident here."

"You just said you can't confuse the fake with the real."

"If your money could buy back a lifetime of happiness, would you make this deal?"

"..."

"If a lie can persist for a lifetime, can it be called truth?"

Lu Ning couldn't answer the male waiter's two consecutive questions.

"I'm sorry, but for a young man like you, the original life will be rich and colorful enough."

After finishing speaking, the male waiter took Lu Ning for a walk around the park, and not long after, the man named Saxiu hurried back.

"what's up?"

Saxiu tidied up the clothes that were a little wrinkled from running, and asked the male waiter.

"I want to take this guest to A10, come here and grant permission."

"This girl? Well, please follow me."

Lu Ning got up and followed Sa Xiu, and the male waiter followed behind.After walking for a while, Lu Ning asked, "Your name is Saxiu? Why does this room need permission?"

"It's not the room, but the area." Saxiu turned his head and showed a polite smile. This person's appearance is also very high in a building full of handsome men and beautiful women. His temperament is also very clear and comfortable, and his voice is very gentle.

"area?"

"A10 is an area that provides certain types of makeup, because it is a relatively special work area, and generally not many customers will go there, but we let the makeup artist come to the door." Saxiu explained, "But you keep it like this The appearance of the man coming in, the fatigue on his face, and the smell of blood on his body all indicate that you need a covert disguise, so he asked me to take you there."

For a moment, Lu Ning touched the button of the sword cart.

"Don't panic, we will keep the customer's private information confidential, unless the customer allows us to say a part of it." Saxiu immediately added, "This is a service-oriented area, and you don't need to worry about the reputation of any staff member. The dressing rooms are all independent and closed structures, if you are not satisfied with the service there, you can leave directly, and we will never stop you."

Lu Ning then slowly let go of her hand.

A10 This is a small wing room. Saxiu led Lu Ning into a room with a green light on. As soon as she entered, Lu Ning was shocked by the dazzling array of cosmetics and clothing decorations inside.

Since the ingredients in most cosmetics may affect her own condition, Lu Ning has never had much contact with this in her life, and she has no time to study these things after entering the distribution center. The only knowledge she has is some light makeup and dressing techniques. The battle in front of me?
"Do you want me to do your makeup for you, or find a makeup artist who suits you?"

"...female makeup artist, thank you."

Sa Xiu smiled, nodded and left the room.

Lu Ning sat on a chair and looked at herself in the mirror.The blond wig was scattered behind his head, and his face looked a little listless. The clothes on his body also looked quite cheap at the moment, and he looked even more disheveled when set off by the clothes behind him.

Yao thought that he was complained about not being able to dress up in a certain scene, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it.

Soon, a 30-year-old woman walked into the dressing room, asked Lu Ning kindly what she wanted to dress up, and then began to smear her face. Chatting with Lu Ning, she found that she was almost After knowing nothing, he began to impart experience.

When Lu Ning opened her eyes again to look at herself in the mirror, she only saw a blond, blue-eyed, charming mixed-race beauty staring at her.

"How? Your face shape is very malleable, and it suits you well with a variety of makeup looks, but since you want to look like a mixed race, it's not bad, let's choose a suit of clothes, so that people will believe you when you go out and say which princess of a small country you are from." Makeup artist Smiling, he helped Lu Ning up, and led her to the rear closet, and entered a series of numbers on a small operation panel. Suddenly, the closet flowed like a conveyor belt, and the clothes inside quickly switched to European-style dresses.

"Skirt? Or casual?"

"Casual clothes." Lu Ning swept her gaze, and quickly settled on a lady's windbreaker that was very similar to the one Mo La wore before. She reached out and took it off. The dark blue color and slim fit made her feel very suitable. Own.

"Did you fancy this one? Let's pick out what to wear underneath, your temperament...it's suitable for a more neat one..."

Lu Ning didn't plan to waste too much time on this, the makeup artist picked out two and she confirmed them.

The whole set of services did not cost her too much including the clothes. The props and costumes of Zuimeng Hongzhuang are all used many times, even if they are bought, they are not very expensive. A shoulder bag for this outfit.

In this way, it seems that I have to do some work for the website to make money again.

Lu Ning bought a pair of sunglasses when she walked out of Zuimenghongzhuang, and then went straight to the second district by car, looking for Jiang Shanluo to ask about the past few days.

Second District, University City.

Said to be a university town, there is only one university in the entire Sin City, surrounded by various vocational high schools and schools built around the university, which slightly strengthens the academic atmosphere here.

It's a little tricky to go from the busiest place to the dullest place.According to the information Lu Ning found on the Internet, there are many professors who don’t care about character but have outstanding knowledge. There are some dangerous people who like to conduct high-risk experiments. The two most famous ones are "Professor Zombie" Remington And "Demon Mentor" Pfister.

Remington is proficient in biology and pharmacology, and has published many professional papers on genetic evolution and gene variation. One of his most famous things is that he cultivated "zombie viruses" privately in the laboratory. As a fan of doomsday movies, this It has actually taken the most important step from theory to practice.After the first zombie dog he infected with the virus ran out of the laboratory and collapsed before it could bite someone, the experiment was also exposed. He was expelled from the laboratory and prosecuted for crimes against humanity. When I arrived in Vice City, I continued my research.

Pfister is a double-genius scientist in physics and electronic engineering. His title of "Professor Demon" comes from his most famous "Laplace's Demon" experiment.Although the final result of that experiment was a failure, the "demon" at that moment caused a quantum collapse within a radius of [-] square meters, and all things were "observed" and ushered in the doomed future in advance, half Because of the interference of high-dimensional space, a research team became molecular blocks in that area. This terrible result, which is no less than the annihilation of antimatter, caused Pfister to encounter resistance from many parties, so he had to bring the rest of the team. To this place where there is no taboo.
