Start Cthulhu with priest - Chapter 292
c290 289. Wedding dress?
From An Le’s point of view, the layout of the venue seemed a bit strange?
Specifically, he couldn’t tell what was so strange.
If I have to say it, it should be that the venue is… too beautiful?
Even if Anle is definitely not a good aesthetic, it can be seen that the venue is very careful in terms of aesthetics.
Various colors and layouts make people feel very comfortable, and even have a sense of magnificent dream.
It is like the handwriting of a venue expert in professional design.
There are even a lot of bright and beautiful flowers prepared, and the lighting arrangement is very particular, creating an atmosphere with a bit of beauty.
An Le would not be surprised if it was placed on some other celebration.
Everyone likes to be pretty!
But you must know that this is the succession ceremony of Miki Montenegro.
It is a fairly formal occasion to openly face the entire abandoned city.
In An Le’s vision, it should be more solemn and upright.
It was as if, on the occasion of someone publicly announcing his succession, there were lights and festoons, making it look like a school garden tour, not solemn or solemn at all.
No matter how you think about it, it’s weird.
However, An Le didn’t understand the culture of the abandoned capital at all, she thought to herself.
‘It may be some peculiar custom. ‘
In addition, Anle also heard that this was an order personally issued by Heishan Meiji.
Miki Montenegro should only care more about this succession ceremony than he does. Maybe it’s because of her only teenage heart attack, so she wants to make it look better?
An Le soon stopped caring.
Apart from the guests who hadn’t arrived yet, there was a group of people, like sharks who smelled blood, scrambling to get near the venue.
This group of people are reporters from various media.
The importance of today’s succession ceremony can be imagined, the top executives of the three major companies will come forward, and may even decide the future of the waste capital.
This means that it attracts the attention of the whole city.
Not to mention, it’s still about the Miki Montenegro who is full of topicality and attention.
If they don’t get a share of this traffic feast, what kind of journalists are they still doing, they just resign and quit!
It is different from the unscrupulous media reporters in many countries on the earth.
Many of the media outlets in the waste capital more or less have the background of the three major companies, or in other words, they were the ones who supported them.
Naturally, it is impossible to say whatever you want, or add embellishments to fabricate sensational news.
Relatively honest.
Of course, the struggle between the three major companies will have to be decided according to the owner behind each media.
In the abandoned city, there will never be a phenomenon where reporters need to be treated carefully to prevent them from reporting indiscriminately.
On the contrary, the reporters, who were extremely well-behaved, lined up to enter the arena obediently like little quails, and had no courage to violate the order of the venue.
Without the permission of the Montenegro security company, I dare not take pictures or record at all, which can be described as very conscientious.
Think about it too.
Most journalists on the planet are protected by law and their personal safety is guaranteed.
But in the waste capital, the three major companies never cared about that kind of thing.
It made them unhappy, and it was like crushing an ant, ending the life of those who dared to offend.
Is money more important than life?
These reporters are still very clear.
However, among this group of people, An Le saw a slightly familiar figure.
The man had a pair of furry cat ears on top of his head, and looked around nervously, with a timid and cautious expression.
She looked very timid, destroying the beauty of that pretty face.
This person is called Kano.
It was the cat-human youth that An Le had come into contact with when he first entered the abandoned city.
If An Le hadn’t recruited him into the church and accepted him as an employee of the company, I’m afraid he really wouldn’t have recognized him.
Kano’s changes are not insignificant.
When he was in the bullet group, he acted very young and frivolous.
——It’s not that there is something wrong with his personality, it’s just that he is young and ignorant.
Kano seemed to have a certain amount of hostility towards Anle before, but Anle didn’t care, and didn’t even take him to heart.
An Le has always been quite tolerant towards her employees.
Those who can earn him sanity are good employees!
Besides, young people, it’s normal to make some mistakes.
What Anle is curious about is, didn’t Kano previously served as a sniper in the bullet regiment?
Why did he change jobs so much, and became a reporter directly?
Moreover, his personality now is very different from that at that time, like two different people, he looks cautious and careful, for fear of offending others.
——This is a change that most people who live in the abandoned capital will have.
What made Anle’s expression weird the most was that Kano still had a faint aura of loss, and he had a high probability of becoming a member of the Misty Cultists.
This identity change is a bit fast!
An Le complained silently in her heart.
I always feel that Kano’s experience during this period must be very exciting, and it may be regarded as a novella when written.
Tucao return to Tucao, An Le has no plans to go up to talk to him, reminiscing about the old days.
I only met two or three times in total, how can there be any old things to recount?
And now, the two are no longer on the same level.
What’s the point of even talking?
As if aware of the gaze from this side, Kano in the crowd of reporters turned his head and happened to meet Anle’s gaze.
Immediately, he froze on the spot, his eyes widened slightly, and fell into shock and confusion.
Kano had seen An Le without the mask.
His indescribable unique temperament, his beautiful appearance, and the early warning produced by biological instinct are enough for Kano to recognize him at a glance.
‘But why is he here? ‘
Kano’s experience these days is indeed very exciting, but for him, perhaps “miserable” is a more appropriate description.
Their Gunball Corps was originally “doing business” as honestly as in the past.
Relying on his fairly good strength, the rational and cold leader Dao Ba, and the internal atmosphere of relative solidarity and mutual assistance.
Not to mention the fact that the bullet group is flourishing, at least it is no problem to maintain a basic survival, and perhaps it may continue to grow by chance and coincidence.
It’s just that an indiscriminate disaster soon fell on them.
The cause of this incident has something to do with Anle.
At the beginning, the Gunball Squad and Anle accepted the commission to attack the Gray Wolf Gang, and then brought out the experimental subjects from Infinite Biotechnology Company.
——At that time, Anle fought hard and finally won.
It was precisely because of this incident that An Le officially entered the sight of Miki Heishan and began to cooperate and contact her.
It can be regarded as a small turning point for An Le in Wasted City.
But that’s not the case for the Bullets.
When gods fight, mortals suffer.
This small conflict, on the surface, was a mercenary attack on the Gray Wolf Gang, but in fact it was a secret struggle between Black Mountain Security and Infinite Technology.
Exactly what that sentence says——
If I can’t teach Black Mountain Company a lesson, can’t I teach you a lesson?
The mercenaries, including the Bullet Corps, innocently became the targets of infinite biological revenge.
For a giant like the Big Three, there are thousands of ways to deal with a small group like the Bullets.
The final result was that the whole group fell apart, the head of the group, Dao Ba, died unfortunately, and the members of the group scattered and died.
Kano wanted to take revenge, but he was powerless.
He could only change careers and become a reporter. Due to his strong strength and keen eyesight, and some special reasons, he quickly climbed to this position.
But he never expected that he would meet An Le here.
Kano thought he would have died in the hands of Infinite Biotechnology Company long ago!
Moreover, Kano looked at Anle’s appearance at this time.
The clothes he was wearing were high-end and well-fitting—they were custom-made for him by Miji Heishan, and An Le was too embarrassed to refuse.
His eyes are sharp and gloomy, and his aura is becoming more and more unfathomable. Those who are swept by his gaze will even tremble slightly, as if they are being targeted by some kind of terrible predator——An Le is checking out suspicious people. Natural gentleness can’t go anywhere.
Even the blind eye was healed—Kano was referring to the eye patch An Le originally wore to protect Xiao Ganxiang’s boarding eye. In fact, it was still covered by a blindfold, but An Le used An An’s illusion to make it impossible for outsiders to notice.
From Kano’s point of view, no matter what, the other party has become a high-ranking person, and seems to have sneaked into the high-level security of Montenegro.
The employees next to him who obeyed his orders and showed awe were the naked evidence.
But Kano really couldn’t figure it out, this “doctor” came to the abandoned capital for a shorter time than him, how did he climb to such a height so quickly and become a big man among ordinary people?
This is no longer a situation that can be explained by “accident”, it is almost “magic”!
Thinking about himself, not only has he lost the senior he admired, but his former high spirits have completely dissipated. He can only do this kind of extremely dangerous dirty work, and he is also forced to have sex with that kind of woman…
Thinking of some bad memories, Kano’s stomach churned, and his face became even paler.
His luck in surviving the reckoning of Infinity Biotech was only a small part of luck.
More importantly, a high-ranking female cadre prefers handsome men of the cat-human race like him.
So, as a deal, he was sheltered.
However, not all high-ranking women have such superior conditions as Miki Montenegro.
Especially infinite creatures, a force that is keen on biological transformation.
Her figure… Kano can no longer use normal rhetoric to evaluate.
In addition, the usual stimulation can no longer satisfy female cadres…
Simply put, it’s a big game.
One can imagine what kind of life Kano has been living these days.
Coincidentally, that woman was also a believer in the mist, so she dragged him into the sect by the way.
In fact, to some extent, Kano and Anle are somewhat similar.
They are also young talents, and they have not been here for a long time, and they all hide their strengths.
He also had an in-depth exchange with a woman of high status.
Quite a “how can they be so similar?” taste.
However, the current situation is quite different.
It can only make people sigh, good fortune tricks people.
In other words, a person’s success depends not only on personal efforts, but also on the process of history.
Kano, not far away, obviously didn’t realize this.
He just sighed, why is the gap between people so big?
Although Mao Renzhu thought so much in his heart, he didn’t dare to show it on the surface.
Kano is no longer the reckless and ignorant young man he was when he first arrived, but has become a restrained and cautious character like Tobachi.
Dao Ba is dead, and he has become Dao Ba.
I have to say, this is really quite ironic.
Kano didn’t even dare to look at An Le, for fear of causing some unnecessary misunderstandings, he decided to beautify his image in the collected press releases.
For this cat person who had met a few times, An Le just took a second look, and stopped paying attention to him, and didn’t care about his thoughts.
Instead, continue to examine everyone who seems suspicious.
Until the guests entered the arena one after another, An Le frowned silently, and her mentality gradually changed.
The reason for the change was not that the black-eyed people had sneaked in too much and couldn’t be caught.
Rather… no black-eyed people entered the venue at all!
This time, An Le checked the people who entered the venue one by one, and he was even more enthusiastic about the manpower of the other two major companies.
He can be sure that nothing slipped through the net.
But even so, not even a black-eyed person was found.
On the contrary, it was the Misty Cultist. Several of them were found, and there were not many believers who clearly believed in the bloody and cruel sect.
Logically speaking, it should be a good thing that no black-eyed person was found.
Ke Anle doesn’t think so.
He felt that either his own inspection methods were flawed.
Or, the black-eyed person is hiding in the dark, ready to do something big.
Both of these situations are troublesome no matter what they are.
The unknown is always more terrifying.
A poisonous snake hidden in the dark is more frightening than a vicious dog with its teeth and claws.
The dark-eyed person who is hiding is undoubtedly this kind of poisonous snake.
However, An Le really had no choice but to passively defend and wait in this situation.
At the same time, there was some ominous premonition in his heart, which once again proved his conjecture.
For a moment, An Le even wanted to suggest that Heishan Meiji cancel the original succession ceremony directly and hold it again on another day.
But he himself quickly dismissed the idea.
Not to mention, the temporary cancellation will cause a devastating blow to the reputation of Black Mountain Company and Black Mountain Miki.
And by doing so, it seemed that he was afraid of black-eyed people.
Soldiers come to block, water comes and soil floods.
Even if the black-eyed people really came prepared, wouldn’t Anle have a way to deal with it?
It’s impossible to hide like this for a lifetime!
So in the end, An Le still denied this impulse.
That being said, however, precautions are still indispensable.
An Le wanted to find Meiji Heishan, and talk to her first.
It’s just that he didn’t expect to be stopped at the door of the dressing room by accident.
The maid stepped out and sent a message: “Master Meiji said that she is making final preparations, so don’t disturb her.”
An Le was a little puzzled again.
Isn’t this succession ceremony for outsiders to see?
Why does it feel like Meiji attaches so much importance to it, that she doesn’t even want to meet her face to face?
But thinking about it, it might not be impossible for Miki Montenegro to think of her father’s appearance back then, feeling emotional and touching the scene.
Afterwards, An Le left with empathy.
In fact, Miki Heishan in the dressing room was wearing a costume, looking at herself in the mirror with a complicated expression on her face.
The gorgeousness of this dress is definitely something An Le has never heard of or seen before.
Comparable to formal attire for political occasions.
It’s more like a…
Wedding dress?
