Chapter 32 Victoria City (for further reading)
"Someone fell into the water!"

"Don't look there, it's a corpse that died on the street, it was thrown in by the corpse collection team, it has nothing to do with us."

In the dark river, Gu Xi was heaved by the river, and there were rustling discussions in the distance.

Although the voice was not loud, Gu Xi could hear it clearly, which made Gu Xi understand that he had escaped from the cell where he was buried somewhere.

"Fortunately, I wasn't sent back to the cell again."

Gu Xi moved his body, raised his head to look in the direction, and started to swim towards the shore.

Along the way, Gu Xi found various things in the river.

There are rotting corpses, sewage from sewers, and sewage from various factories upstream.

Anyway, the whole river Isis is black.

Gu Xi didn't want to soak in this river at all, he swam harder and harder in the water.

But before he got close to the shore, several beams of light hit his face.

Gu Xi tilted his head, blocked the direct light from his eyes with his hands, and squinted to see the situation on the shore clearly.

On the shore, three patrolmen in black high-collared police uniforms, black silver-rimmed helmets, and small searchlights the size of human heads were staring at him.

Gu Xi noticed that all three of them had their hands on their waists, as if there was any movement, they would immediately draw out their weapons and launch an attack.

Seeing that Gu Xi had no intention of rushing down, the leader shouted loudly.

"Are you still alive?"

Is not this nonsensical?

Gu Xi rolled his eyes in his heart, and raised his hands at the same time, "Alive, still alive."

In fact, Gu Xi didn't know that from time to time there were strange and undead bodies in the Isis River who were thrown into the river, and they wanted to use their bodies to sneak into Victoria City.

The shore patrols like them are arranged for these weird or dead ghosts possessed by the dead.

Usually they only need to use the searchlights in their hands to shine a light, and those who do not respond are living people, and they are usually released ashore.

It's just that the leader today is a little free, so he asked a few more questions.

"Brother, what's the matter, I didn't see the way clearly after drinking too much, and fell into the river by myself?"

As he spoke, this man commanded his subordinates to drag Gu Xi up the rock with a long wooden stick.

When Gu Xi came out from Alidovi, he had already thought about his origin.

When he first entered Victoria City, the system arranged for him an identity.

Coupled with the fact that he had obtained Joseph's land purchase order, Gu Xi had already figured out what to say.

"Don't mention it, I found a land purchase decree at home that I don't know which generation of ancestors left behind. It can be exchanged for a piece of land in Camden District. When I went to ask someone about it, I was released directly. Turn it over and throw it into the river."

Gu Xi grabbed the stick and climbed up the bank.

These patrolmen were also people on the outside. As soon as they heard Gu Xi's explanation, they had already made up all kinds of conspiracies in their minds.

The leading patrolman even laughed and said, "Brother, it is your fate that you can live. You dare to take out something from more than 100 years ago, and it is still from Camden District.

You don’t know that it’s all uptown now, where rich people live. Look at you, you’re so thin, it’s like the cinders in that factory. Even if you take the land, they’ll have a way to take it back .

I advise you, find an intermediary and sell this land purchase order, maybe you can exchange it for a piece of land in Kamlai District. "

"That's right, Camden and Camley sound similar, just a little bit of meaning is enough, and they are both in the city of Victoria anyway."

"That can't be done. My land purchase order was originally a large farm near Kamlai. If I go there now, I will definitely not be able to get such a large land. I can't lose this money."

As soon as Gu Xi heard it, he acted quickly, and a character who wanted money and life quickly stood up.

The three patrolmen quickly made up their minds, and they all believed in Gu Xi's identity, so they didn't kill him as a weird possessed guy.

With this brain supplement, the actions of the three patrolmen are also faster.

After Gu Xi was pulled ashore, the three patrols checked Gu Xi's situation.

Because Gu Xi was more decent when he spoke just now, they didn't make it too difficult for Gu Xi, they just checked roughly and waved him away.

"Okay, it's okay, don't stay by the Isis River, if you don't want to be caught as cinders in a black factory, don't wander around the downtown area in the middle of the night, there are many fewer people in the downtown area during this time.

As for the matter over there in Camden, I won't advise you, you can handle it yourself. "

After speaking, the patrolman patted Gu Xi on the shoulder, raised his eyelids, and gave Gu Xi a look that you can control yourself.

Gu Xi thanked them, and then, regardless of his dirty and smelly body, he quickly left the vicinity of the Isis River and walked to the street.

However, Gu Xi's luck this time was pretty good, he could tell from his appearance that he had just climbed up from the Isis River, and no one noticed the traces left by Gu Xi being locked up in the dungeon.

On the street, Gu Xi looked around, and found with some helplessness that there were no large bathrooms or bathing centers in Victoria City.

And with his appearance, he couldn't go to the upper city or other relatively clean areas.

He could only follow the carriage and walk out along the street. In a small alley three blocks away from the Isis River, Gu Xi found a tavern that looked a little old.

There is also a sign made of wood hanging in front of the tavern, with a huge wine glass painted on it.

Over the years, the wooden signboards have changed color, but the store is still hanging.

The reason why Gu Xi chose this place was not because the girls in red dresses pulling customers by the roadside were prettier than other places, but because Gu Xi had seen the same signboard in the city of Alydovi.

Gu Xi clearly remembered that under the wine glass, there was a small compass painted in a color invisible to ordinary people.

The same sign can explain that the store in front of you is a centuries-old store that moved out of the old town of Victoria.

Generally, in an old store that has existed for so long, there are always some unknown things.

And the most important thing for a hotel is safety, if you can find an old hotel that has been around for hundreds of years, Gu Xi will naturally not go to a black shop that you are not sure about.

Pushing open the door of the tavern, Gu Xi heard a crisp voice.

"What do the guests want?"

"Give me a room. I want to take a shower and change clothes. By the way, is there anything I can eat? My stomach is not very good, so I can't eat too hard."

Gu Xi spoke casually, and at the same time, he casually threw a shilling onto the bar table of the pub.

"that's it?"

ah?Gu Xi glanced at the deep white groove exposed in the red dress, and immediately reacted, "Sorry, don't do it now, I just fell into the Isis River, and now I want to take a quick shower and give my clothes to Changed."

"Bah, who told you this, I mean..."

"Shaya." At this time, a waiter stood up to prevent any possible conflicts, "I'm sorry, she is a newcomer and doesn't understand anything, I will take you up now."
