Red Moon Returns

It seemed that there was just a pile of rocks and dead branches, but after observing carefully for a few seconds, Lynch finally discovered that there was something really inside.

There were several lizards lying on the rocks, almost motionless, their colors blending into the rocks.

The eyes of those around them were also focused on these lazy creatures, their eyes full of fanaticism.

"What are you doing, selling lizards?"

"What do you think?" Officer Natalie raised the corners of her mouth, with a hint of joking in her tone.

The enthusiastic eyes and crazy shouts around him reminded him of the racecourse in his previous life. Lynch said thoughtfully: "Betting on lizards?"

"Hey." Officer Natalie curled her lips regretfully, "It's just betting on lizards. It's a very complicated method. I won't remind you not to participate. I'm still very relieved about you."

Um. Lynch nodded. It seemed that the police officer was very discerning.

"You don't have any money to gamble anyway."

Why is this woman suddenly swearing at others, and even exposing her shortcomings when she curses?

"Linda, get him a beer."

The police officer waved to the bar, and then another bartender dressed in men's clothing came out with a beer.

"I brought him, please help me take care of him." Natalie patted Lynch on the shoulder.

"Good afternoon, Officer Angel. Are you bringing someone new here?"

The police officer's voice alarmed several drinkers around, and some raised their glasses in welcome.

"Natalie, I heard that you destroyed a cultist's sacrifice last night. Is this kid a survivor? How many days can this guy live? Hehe, kid, did you pee your pants last night? Don't worry, this is just now. Start, hahahaha.”

There was a short bearded man whose face was red from drinking, pointing at Lynch and bursting into laughter.

No matter what nonsense you say, there are drunken lunatics everywhere.

Lin Qi secretly sighed, not bothering to behave like a drunkard.

However, he immediately felt that Natalie's hand still on his shoulder suddenly tightened, squeezing his shoulder painfully. When he looked up, he saw Officer Natalie raising her eyebrows with a gloomy expression.

He grabbed the beer glass that Lynch was about to pick up and poured the entire glass of wine on the other person's head.

He was holding the wine glass with a look of astonishment on his face. The bearded man had not yet sobered up from the wine and was a little dazed for a moment. Natalie had already taken a step forward, grabbed his collar and pointed at his nose, and said with a stern face:

"If you can't control what you say, go find a survivor and make fun of him. Lynch is the friend I brought here. No matter how many days he can live, it's not your turn to make fun of him. Now apologize to him. "

"Are you crazy, Natalie, are you planning to start a war?" The bearded man gradually woke up and his eyes widened, "I didn't say anything wrong. What's wrong with you?"

"I don't care whether you are right or not. Lynch is my comrade who fights side by side, not a drag. If you dare to mock him like this, you must apologize today, otherwise I will make you pay the price."

Lin Qi on the side only felt warm in his heart. Looking at the angry eyes of the bearded man, he was also a little worried for Natalie, so he touched his nose and said: "Well... I thought that glass of wine was for me. "

"Shut up, too." Officer Natalie stared coldly into the bearded eyes without turning her head.

The bearded man's face turned red and white, and his expression turned ferocious several times, but Officer Natalie always held his collar tightly and never wavered from his gaze.

"Okay, okay, I apologize." The bearded man finally looked away and muttered angrily, "I didn't know you considered him a comrade."

"Hmph." Officer Natalie let go of her hand and returned to Lynch, "I'm going to see if that person is free, don't run around."

"Well, I won't move around here." Lin Qi grabbed his hand twice in the air, "Thanks, comrade, but is this..."

"Whatever you want to drink, just bear with it." Officer Natalie chuckled, then straightened her face and strode away angrily, leaving Lynch alone by the bar.

Gee, this woman is so irritable.

"Hahahaha, you are so pathetic, beautiful Linda. Give him another drink and it's mine." Someone next to him raised his glass and laughed, "What a pity, Trin, Natalie didn't beat up you idiot. "

"I'm not afraid of her. I wasn't afraid when her father was alive." The bearded man beside him was not embarrassed at all. He shook his hair and beard like a dog and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, kid. I was just joking, but You are very powerful. This is the first time I have seen that violent female orangutan being so angry for ordinary people. What did you do?"

"Hey, thanks, bro, you're quite a nice person."

Lin Qi raised his glass to the passers-by who were treating him. He finally drank the beer of this world. It tasted more exciting than the beer in his previous life, but it was not as delicious as he imagined. However, he still drank half the cup in one go and had it for lunch. But, Bearded, you said she was a female orangutan? Lin Qi raised his eyebrows and said loudly with a smile:

"Actually, I didn't do much. I just identified the strange object in one second, found the mysterious source at a glance, went deep into the strange object that was out of control, and read the deep memories of the strange object for forty-five minutes. By the way, I made a big fuss inside. Worth mentioning, not worth mentioning.”

Lynch's expression was quite exaggerated, not only the beard, but Lynch's attitude and words made the surrounding atmosphere suffocate, and then the whole room burst into laughter, especially Cui En, the bearded man, who laughed the loudest:

"Hahahaha, you dare to brag. Yes, I like you. To tell you the truth, I am still His Majesty Rudolf. I came out in casual clothes today, haha."

"Oh, what I said is obviously the truth, why don't you believe it?"

"Hahaha, if you can do this, I will kneel down and lick your boots on the spot." The bearded man smiled and wiped his beard, "Forget it if you don't want to say it, haha, it doesn't matter, pretty girl, Linda, give him another drink , He tells good jokes, I’ll treat him.”

For a moment, the bar was filled with a happy atmosphere, and most people even turned their attention from the glass cover to Lynch. However, a few bells suddenly sounded from the bar, and a group of drinkers immediately leaned back to the bar, looking at each other. Staring closely at the lizard in the glass dome, no one paid any attention to Lynch anymore.

Lynch shrugged, took the beer from the pretty female bartender, and raised his glass to her: "Thank you, is this your Watcher's stronghold?"

"Well." Linda, the bartender, was wiping her wine glass at the bar. "You should say 'them' watchers. We ordinary people are peripheral members."

"I think it's about the same, but you are really ordinary people. I thought there were all soul-shifters here."

Linda rolled her eyes at him: "There are so many soul-shifters. Most of them are ordinary people who survived mysterious events. Once you are exposed to mysterious events, it is easy to establish a connection with the mystery and you will never be a normal person again." Those survivors who had some ability simply became mystery hunters, and occasionally accepted some less dangerous commissions from the watchers. It was also a win-win result. If they encountered dangerous mysterious incidents, they would also have the opportunity to solve them nearby. As for the survivors who are incompetent, just rely on the watchers to do some clerical work, like us, just live one day longer. "

"How can you say you don't have the ability? I don't believe those people can clean the cup quickly and cleanly. Everyone has their own specialties."

"Tsk, there's no point in trying to please me. I won't buy you a drink." Linda smiled and rolled her eyes at Lynch, "But there are also some soul-shifters among them. The bearded Cui En who fought with Natalie is one of them. , I just saw you angry when he said what Natalie said, please be careful, he is also a Level 2 soul changer, don’t mess with him.”

"Well, thanks for reminding me, I never cause trouble."

Lynch had actually been reminded by the female voice that there were at least five soul-shifters in the bar, especially one who was staring at the crystal ball and gently stroking it, one who had his head buried and his hands hanging on the tarot cards hesitantly, and one who was kneeling on one knee. Kneeling in front of the bar, clasping his hands and fingers against his forehead, he muttered something. He looked like he was occupying... Huh?

Look up at the blackboard above, and then look at these three soul-shifters dancing around with demons. Could it be that they are cheating by divining the outcome of the gambling game?

"It's not cheating. It's allowed to use power to predict. This is also part of the bet." Linda explained, "It's just that their bet is not public and is a secret bet. Ah, it's about to start, fifteen minutes It’s time to prepare.”

The bar fell into silence, and even Linda lowered her voice subconsciously.

The three fortune tellers had already handed in a piece of paper one after another, especially the one who played tarot cards, and he revised it twice.

A bartender walked around the bar holding a glass test tube.

Lynch saw clearly that there was a swarm of...mosquitoes trapped in the test tube.

Chameleon, mosquito. Lin Qi's expression was a little strange, and he realized what these people were betting on.

"Well, there are a total of twenty mosquitoes, including seven lizards, including the first three lizards that have eaten mosquitoes, and how many of these three have eaten each. We have special sensing equipment to determine the number of remaining mosquitoes. No. Wrong. In fact, it is similar to horse racing, except that it does not require such a large venue and players, and it is not suitable for ordinary people. I have never seen it in the world of ordinary people before. "

Ordinary people don't play such a weird game. No one with a sound mind plays this way. Betting on horses is at least better than betting on mosquitoes.

Lin Qi was thinking, the bartender had already opened the small hole in the glass cover and inserted the test tube, but he had not yet opened the seal of the test tube.

"After a while, you can use your power to influence the gambling situation. Until the result is announced, it depends on who has a higher level."

"Hiss..." Lin Qi felt as if he had traveled through time in a Thousand Arts movie, watching a group of masters from thousands of arts show off their magical powers, "So, is this a competition between the lizards or the soul-shifters outside?"

"In front of the money, is there any essential difference between humans and lizards?" Linda smiled, "That's what the boss here said."

Lin Qi was stunned for a moment, savoring these words carefully, and slowly smiled: "It makes sense, but if they interfere, what will happen to the previous divination results?"

"If their actions cannot be taken into account, then it is not a divination."

It makes sense and is completely irrefutable.

Bang bang, someone behind him patted him, and when he looked back, it was Officer Natalie who was back.

"Come with me. He has time. What happened just now? Nothing happened."

"It's nothing." Lin Qi smiled strangely, "Mr. Cui En bought me a drink just now. I told him about last night's experience, and he even praised me for telling him well."

"Hahaha, yes, Natalie, you are a good friend. You can brag better than me. Just now you said you can identify strange objects in one second and read the deep memories of strange objects in forty-five minutes. I can't even do that, haha Ha ha……"

"What he said was indeed inaccurate. To be precise, it was forty-three minutes and fifty seconds." Officer Natalie nodded seriously. "I have also reported the situation to Victor and am preparing to take him to see Wei. Here’s Kedo. Let’s go, Lynch, I’ll take you somewhere else later.”

The laughter in the bar stopped suddenly, and everyone's eyes wandered repeatedly between the bearded Cui En and Lynch.

Troyen opened his mouth and stared at Lynch and Natalie blankly. His throat gurgled. He wanted to say something but couldn't say a word. His face became redder and redder.

"I said that I was telling the truth. Why don't you believe it? Then, His Majesty Rudolf II, I'm leaving first. Thank you for the beer."

As he said that, Lynch raised his hat and bowed, and followed Officer Natalie away.

The moment he left, there was a violent laugh behind him, which lasted for a long time.
