Chapter 257 Taxi Driver

Chapter 257 Taxi Driver

It was already light at around six in the morning, but because of the cloudy sky, it was still dim.

Luo Xi looked at the torn clothes.

"Eat a large amount in advance and store the energy. You can release this energy when needed, allowing your body to temporarily reach the level of elite C-grade (-). At the same time, it increases the self-healing ability when injured by 078% and reduces the pain. This is the special ability of No. [Gourmet]."

The [Level 1 Severance] that Liu Baosheng used before was not without effect.

It was just that Luo Xi predicted it in advance and offset it with the ability of [Gourmet].

This is considered to be taking advantage of a loophole in the scene rules.

Luo Xi had been eating a lot in the scene before, and he was slowly accumulating the ability of [Gourmet].

The effect is obvious.

"This is a trap, very clever. Although many tricks are used, it cannot fool the sense of smell of the [Gourmet]. A horse should have the smell of a horse, not a mixture of human smell." Luo Xi looked at the cuts on his body.

The self-healing ability took effect.

The bleeding has stopped a long time ago, and I think the scar will heal slowly after a while.

But you can't make big movements or do strenuous exercise, otherwise it will easily break again.

"I should find a needle and thread to sew up the wound." He muttered, then hailed a taxi that happened to pass by.

"Hello, where are you going?"

"The intersection of Dalong Ring Road and Shushu West Road."

"Ok!"

The vehicle started steadily.

The phone vibrates.

Luo Xi took a look and picked up the phone.

"Qiqi, where are you? Yes, I was on the set before. Oh, did she contact you? I see. I plan to go there too. Let's talk when we get there." After just a few words, Luo Xi hung up the phone.

Soon, there was another call.

"Wu Rui, it's good that you have picked up the person. You can meet up with Brother Mao and the others. If you have anything to say, talk to the group. Can't contact Ke Lan? That's normal. He should still be working."

After hanging up, Luo Xi opened their group chat and took a look. Fatty Qian was the most active one. He said that he encountered a certain level scene on the road, but he thought about it and did not participate.

"I always play it safe, so I'll wait outside that level. If someone comes out, I can get information."

This is indeed in line with Fatty Qian's style of doing things.

From time to time, Luo Xi would look out the window and look at the city shrouded in dark clouds.

Look at the pedestrians and vehicles on the road.

The road was not congested at this time, and vehicles quickly got onto the viaduct at a very high speed.

At this moment, the broadcast sound in the car radio was suddenly affected by a harsh noise and a crackling sound of electric current. I thought it was just some kind of occasional interference and would soon disappear, but the electric current noise did not decrease but increased and continued.

Luo Xi raised his eyelids and looked at the driver.

The driver was also looking at him through the rearview mirror.

Originally, the driver was a kind middle-aged man, but at this moment, his face was expressionless, his eyes were cold, and there was a faint light in his pupils.

Apart from the noise of the electrical current, the carriage was eerily quiet.

"Why do you always cause trouble? I really don't understand."

The driver's voice changed.

It's like another soul is stuffed into a body.

"What's your name?" Luo Xi was not surprised, he changed his sitting position.

"The name is not important. You will lose your memory sooner or later anyway and won't be able to remember it." The driver's tone was condescending, with a sense of superiority that a higher creature looking down on lower ones.

"If you don't tell me, I'll take one and call you driver. So, Mr. Driver, what's the matter with you coming here in this way?"

"Oh, you are really annoying. I feel annoyed when I see your calm face. You are like a stink bug. No matter how hard I try to crush you, you will still appear." The driver did not hide his disgust for someone at all.

Luo Xi crossed his legs and stretched out on the back seat: "So, you came here specifically to scold me?"

"Put away your self-righteousness. You and I are not in the same dimension at all, let alone the same level. In my eyes, you are just a bug. I only need one finger to kill you." The driver said, and then laughed: "It is indeed a waste of time to talk to you about this. So, let's get straight to the point, Luo Xi, what exactly do you want to do?"

Luo Xi was stunned: "What?"

"What exactly is your plan?" the driver continued, "Don't tell me you don't know what happened in the last cycle, or to be more direct, is that incident related to you? This shouldn't be, it shouldn't be, it must be, it must be you who did it, what exactly is your purpose?"

The driver's face was grim as he said the last sentence. It was obvious that he was in a very bad mood. Even the weather outside changed suddenly in an instant, and there were even bursts of thunder. A few seconds later, raindrops fell like beans falling from the sky. Luo Xi showed a surprised look, first looking at the sudden change in the weather outside the car window, and then looking at the driver in front.

The other party had already turned his head, but the vehicle was still driving steadily on the road.

It seems that there is no need for the other party to specifically control it.

"You mean, the last cycle that suddenly stopped and restarted? And the explosion?"

"nonsense."

"To be honest, I also want to know. Even the destination I'm going to now is to find out the secret of this matter." Luo Xi spread his hands: "I want to find out what happened more than you do, Mr. Driver."

"You're lying." The driver frowned.

"No, although I can lie, but I didn't. I understand." Luo Xi thought for a moment and looked over seriously: "Mr. Driver, you think this matter is related to me, and even mentioned some kind of plan. But you should be very clear that even if your assumption is true, it is my plan, and I came up with it, but it is not me now. I have lost my memory, and this time I became a memory restorer, and I have only reincarnated for a single digit. To be precise, this is only my fourth cycle day."

It can be seen that there is helplessness and grievance on Luo Xi's face.

He was very sure that the other party must be very clear about what he was saying.

Because it's true.

In addition, this guy who can arbitrarily "possess" a person with amnesia must be very special. He might be a senior executive in the company, or someone of the same level. Moreover, the other party and some high-ranking guys have been monitoring him all the time.

So even if you don't say it, the other party will know this information.

After all, this time when he became a memory collector, from the moment he knew that there was Xu Lin pretending to be his mother around him, Luo Xi knew that someone was "monitoring" him.

Some of these are arranged by myself, while others are not.

This is now completely confirmed.

Wait, could the arrival of this 'driver' also be part of the plan?

In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Luo Xi's mind.

"What are you thinking about?" the driver suddenly asked.

"I'm curious." Luo Xi did not show any abnormality. He smoothly transitioned from his previous fleeting thoughts to a state of confusion.

"Curious? What are you curious about?" The driver stared at Luo Xi. There was a faint halo in the other's eyes, which seemed particularly bright because the sky was darker.

It was as if there were tiny light rings installed in the eyes.

"Why do you think those things have anything to do with me? As far as I know, there are tens of thousands of people who have regained their memories during the days of confinement, and there are some real masters among them. Some people have even saved thousands of memories. Their memories have not been interrupted, and they have not become amnesiacs. Compared to me who has only experienced four cycles of days, why do you think it was me who did it, and not them?" Luo Xi asked seriously, and added: "This is what I'm curious about. To be honest, I'm very curious about what I have done, or who I was. If you know, you can tell me."

"Haha, hahaha!" Unexpectedly, the driver on the opposite side couldn't help laughing wildly after hearing it, as if he had heard a very funny joke: "Luo Xi, you are like a cunning fox. Do you plan to use this method to get information? Do you think I am a fool? I will never tell you those things. I will never let you know who you are and what you have done. I will eliminate all the clues, and you won't find anything, let alone get back your past memories. Yes, this is right, this is the normal reaction. Even if this matter is indeed related to you, it was done by you in the past, and now, you are just a person who has experienced four cycles of memory, that's all."

As the laughter continued, the weather outside the car window improved again. Although it was still cloudy, there were no more strong winds and heavy rain, and no more lightning and thunder.

If there weren't traces of rain still on the car windows, everything that just happened would have seemed like a dream.

Looking at the driver again, he had already returned to normal driving posture.

The electrical noise in the car radio also disappeared, and the original morning broadcast returned.

As if noticing Luo Xi looking at him, the driver glanced in the rearview mirror.

"Is there something I can do for you?" His voice returned to normal, along with his expression and eyes.

"No!" Luo Xi shook his head, then slowly lowered the car window a little.

A cool and humid breeze blew in, instantly dispelling the stuffiness in the car.

"Nietzsche once said, 'When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you!'"

Luo Xi murmured to himself in an inaudible voice.

A few minutes later, the vehicle arrived at the destination, and Luo Xi paid the fare and got off.

There was still some rain water left on the ground, not much, and in a few hours, there would be another rain as per the daily routine.

It’s just that the thunderstorm just now has never appeared before.

At the intersection ahead, the figures of Lin Qiqi and An Zhiyan were like two beautiful landscapes.

As for women, they are definitely outstanding in all aspects. When they stand at the intersection waiting for someone, the rate of turning heads and paying attention is extremely high.

When they saw Luo Xi, the two of them immediately came over. A delivery man riding an electric bike passing by saw him and started cursing, his teeth almost breaking.

Luo Xi nodded to Lin Qiqi first, then looked at An Zhiyan: "I'm sorry, I didn't bring the person with me, so our previous transaction is cancelled, and I don't want your two cards anymore."

An Zhiyan was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "Luo Xi, that's not important. Qiqi told you what happened in Yongge Supermarket after you left last time, right?"
