Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 250 Not a Predestined Meeting

"Damn it, if you raise an unfamiliar beast, eat and drink from me, you won't recognize me when you get ashore."

Although Chen Yan cursed like this, she didn't feel any resentment towards the white cat in her heart.

He thought to himself, it's just a beast, I tossed it so much on the boat, it's normal for it to go ashore and run away from me.

Besides, what do I care about with a beast?
Instead, he was a little worried about the white cat.

He vaguely "remembered" that the material resources of the empire in this era were still relatively scarce, and the hunting of cats and dogs in the city had never stopped, and the dried cat meat could even be sold at a good price in the market.

If the white cat is caught by a very hungry man...

"Huh? How do I know this? Isn't it my first time in the Empire?"

Chen Yan couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it.

"The road is facing the sky, let's go on each side, and ask for blessings."

He looked at the busy Quay Street, felt the cold raindrops falling on his head, and knew that it was going to rain, so he carried his suitcase, walked across the cinder-paved street, and came to the eaves of a building across the street. Down.

As soon as he stood up, the rain began to fall.

In any case, hide from the rain first, and then look for a place to live.

Chen Yan met an old Luke hooligan when he was on the ship, and learned from the chat with him that the society in the empire has been chaotic in recent years, especially after the start of industrialization and the arrival of a large number of new immigrants, the original social order has almost disappeared. no deposit.

Housing prices skyrocketed due to the influx of people in cities. There is no such thing as saving money and living in a safe neighborhood.

Chen Yan rubbed his frozen face, thinking of the "Byron Wiss Zoo Entry Notice" in the suitcase, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

When the ferry was about to dock, he spent a lot of money to borrow the telegraph on the ship, and sent resumes to various companies in the empire.

After dozens of resumes fell into the sea, the dawn finally appeared——

A zoo owned by a listed company actually sent him a job invitation!
This means that as long as he works hard, he can survive in the empire without having to eat his own money!
And now...

Now, he needs to escape the rain first.

It was almost winter in the empire, and the mist that permeated the city was also stained with the freezing cold from the winter. Chen Yan was only wearing an autumn suit, and the mist that was made colder by the rain penetrated into his chest along his collar, freezing him to death. Shivering.

"Little brother, do you need a break?"

The girl with heavy makeup came to strike up a conversation, Chen Yan subconsciously glanced at her cool attire, shook her head and rejected her suggestion with a smile.

The rickshaw driver wearing an umbrella hat stepped forward to ask him if he needed a ride, but the accent from a remote part of the empire was so thick that Chen Yan couldn't understand a single word.

In order to avoid being dragged into a dark corner, Chen Yan still smiled and shook his head.

The cute little girl with a shopping basket strapped to her chest came to him, exchanged his sympathy with a pitiful gesture, and after he refused a hot dog for a penny, she showed a disgusted expression and scolded some of the bottom of the empire Chen Yan couldn't understand the strange phrases compiled by people for scolding.

"This is the fucking empire..."

Chen Yan felt a little cold in his heart.

"It's different from what I imagined..."

All kinds of faces came and went on the street in front of him. Although there were also Asians among them, under the background of the dense crowd, Chen Yan could hardly find faces similar to himself.

Unfamiliar with the place of life, Chen Yan felt a huge sense of alienation in his heart, and a thought that had already arisen in his heart quickly fermented:
This is no longer home.

This thought fermented loneliness, confusion, and an inexplicable sense of loss, and that sense of loss caused an inexplicable melancholy in his heart.

"Alone in a foreign land as a stranger..."

Chen Yan's melancholy mood lasted until a yellow face hurried past him.

Chen Yan looked up at him, and he also turned to look at Chen Yan telepathically.

The eyes of the two met, and the man frowned.

"Hello! Are you from mainland China?"

Although Chen Yan couldn't understand, she was still very excited.

"Ah! Me, me! Uncle! I'm going to the city!"

The middle-aged Asian man in a black suit grinned.

When he spoke again, he had changed words that Chen Yan could understand.

"Good boy, you are lucky to meet me! I am an immigration agency, if you are not afraid of being scammed, come with me!"

He waved to the other side of the pier, and a rickshaw puller ran over.

He got into the car and motioned for Chen Yan to sit next to him.

Chen Yan thought about it, maybe he had to pay some price for the poor information caused by the unfamiliar place.

So he got in the car.

The middle-aged Asian man in a black suit smiled knowingly.

"Everyone on the road calls me third uncle, young man, I have an apartment in my hand, the location is good, the quality is good and the price is cheap, but it is a bit old, do you want to invest?"

……

Wish's vision began to blur.

She only saw that Chen Yan nodded hesitantly after Third Uncle finished saying that.

'The next thing is after he entered the empire. '

Before the vision in front of him completely disappeared, Wish looked to the other side of the pier.

In the pattering rain, a thick black carriage that looked like a cleaning car in a zoo was quietly standing in the middle of the street.

The compartment that can accommodate six people sitting opposite to each other is obviously very large, but pedestrians turn a blind eye to it, and even if they are about to hit it, they will unconsciously change direction. A small part of the space is almost a vacuum.

'You have to use Spirit Vision to see that car. '

'Spiritual vision... is actually not a very special thing, it's just that the gods of this world have made rules, and if you want to get in touch with the deeper things in this world, you must act according to those rules—and [spiritual vision] is is a kind of rule. '

There was a dull sound of "bang bang" in the carriage, which was the sound produced by the little white tiger hitting the carriage.

Wishing to see himself exuding "extreme fear" in the carriage, his heart gradually sank.

'At that time, I just woke up in the stupid tiger's body, and I didn't know that William Master had so many tricks. '

"I just thought that when I got on the carriage, I could meet William Master, and with his help, I would have a normal life and experience everything in the world..."

'But from the moment the carriage door closed, I have been cut off from the world. '

Wishing to look at the heavy carriage, memories of the past emerged in his heart.

'At that time... I just remember that when the door of the carriage was closed, the space inside the carriage and the space outside the carriage completely became two worlds. '

'The world inside the carriage is cold and gloomy, like an independent [soul cage], like... the zoo itself. '

' But it's not the same as a normal zoo. '

'Zoos look like normal animal breeding institutions on the surface, but that's just the appearance seen by [human eyes]. "
