I'm not a drama god

Hearing this, the boss's brows raised slightly.

goo-dong-

The big black dog beside him let go of the cup in his mouth, licked his lips contentedly, and barked at the boss, as if to thank him for his hospitality.

"Okay, we've finished the wine, you should go." The boss said slowly,

"Recently, the human realm has been requisitioning manpower everywhere to expand infrastructure teams and rebuild the realm. Some places have even begun forcibly requisitioning personnel... Be careful when you move around. Don't walk around openly on the streets. It's very dangerous."

"I know, I know." The red-haired girl didn't care. She waved her hand at the boss.

"If there's any news from the Red King, please alert me immediately~"

"it is good."

As the man and the dog disappeared outside the door, the old tavern fell silent again.

In the dim light, the boss slowly withdrew his gaze, a deep look appearing in his eyes...

He raised his fingertips and gently scratched his cheek.

A face disappeared silently in the air.

"This girl is quite sincere." A young girl in a black dress walked out silently from the dark corner of the tavern.

A red robe with black patterns fluttered in the darkness. Chen Ling's fingertips gently grasped a crystal-clear wine glass. The next second, the glass transformed into a thin playing card...

[10 of Hearts].

"This kind of personality is indeed rare in our Twilight Club," Chen Ling said calmly, "but compared to the Ten of Hearts, the Ten of Spades is more interesting... It seems to have discovered me."

"It? It can actually find you?"

"The intuition of disaster is always more sensitive than one can imagine." Chen Ling glanced at the wine glass that had been licked clean, with a helpless look on his face.

"Or maybe... the drink I made was too unpalatable, and it noticed it."

Chen Ling took out a [10 of Spades] from somewhere, stacked it with the original [10 of Hearts], and mixed it into the many playing cards in her other hand.

He walked straight to the bar's warehouse and opened the door. The real "owner" of the bar who had been knocked unconscious, who was also the contact person of the Dusk Society, was lying quietly on the table.

Chen Ling raised her fingertips lightly, and the [Heart Python] that had stolen the other's memory crawled back onto the boss, biting his head and returning the memory...

"Let's go." Chen Ling said calmly.

"We have already touched the number cards secretly. Next, are we going to touch the letter cards?" Liu Qingyan followed behind him.

"No need." Chen Ling shook her head. "J and Q are not ordinary people. If they find us red-handed, it will have the opposite effect..."

"That……"

"Maybe we should try a different approach."

Chen Ling walked to the bar and picked up the newspaper that was dropped by the 10 of Hearts. He looked at the page that reported on his killing of Si Zai, and seemed to be thinking about something.

"interesting……"

……

“——Woof!”

On the streets of the Tianshu Realm, a red-haired girl was startled by the sudden barking of a dog beside her. She slapped Spade Ten and said angrily:

"What are you yelling for?"

The big black dog stuck out its tongue and panted heavily, with the corners of its mouth stretched out as if it was smiling.

"silly dog!"

"Wang!"

"Still screaming!"

"Woof!!"

The red-haired girl was too lazy to pay attention to it. She was about to say something when she suddenly seemed to sense something and pulled the Ten of Spades into the alley next to her.

A few seconds later, several figures hurried past.

"How about it?"

"We've verified that there are indeed no young and middle-aged people left among the survivors in these two blocks... The three rounds of conscription in the Lingxu Realm have already transferred away most of the able-bodied people."

"I don't understand. There's no war going on in the Lingxu Realm, and there's no need to rebuild. Why does he need so many people?"

"I don't know...it seems like they're going to build something."

"But our own reconstruction team doesn't even have enough manpower! He's transferred our young and strong people away. Who will rebuild our homes? This is too much!"

"At the current rate, rebuilding the Tianshu Realm will probably take twenty years..."

"Oh, stop talking, let's go back and report the truth to Lord Hongchen."

"Fine……"

After these people left, the Ten of Hearts cautiously poked its head out from the corner.

She blinked, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

……

"There's no one left?"

Su Zhiwei looked at the reporting staff in surprise.

"Yeah..." the staff member said bitterly, "We formed our own reconstruction team and recruited one round, and then the Lingxu Realm recruited two more rounds... Now there are only women, the elderly, and children left in the city. It's impossible for us to form another reconstruction team."

Su Zhiwei frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

"Lord Hongchen, even if our Tianshu Realm has a large population, we can't withstand the looting from the Lingxu Realm, right? Those survivors were saved by Mr. Han with his life. This..."

The conscription in the past few days has made the government workers feel bitter, but before they could start to complain, Su Zhiwei waved his hand:

"I'm going to discuss this matter with Lord Lingxu... How is the situation with the plague?"

When the word "plague" was mentioned, the staff's faces suddenly became serious:

"This is not good... The Kite Rescue Association has thoroughly investigated the source of this plague, but can't find any... It's not a disease spread by the calamity, nor is it spread by humans. We suspect that the emergence of these diseases may be related to... Red Star."

"Can you control it?"

"...It's very difficult. There's more than one virus currently circulating in the realm. According to incomplete statistics, there are already twelve... Even the medical gods of the Kite Rescue Society have fallen ill."

"Can't even they be cured?"

"Not all medical gods are good at dealing with viruses. Only a small number of them are capable of curing viruses... and even this small number, faced with so many complex and diverse viruses, requires a lot of time to study."

"……I see."

Su Zhiwei waved her hand to let the staff go back first. Her face became serious only after they left.

She immediately walked out of the makeshift office and headed towards the ruins of the Tower of Babel not far away. Although the surface part of the Tower of Babel was completely destroyed, the Tianshu base below was not seriously damaged.

She walked through corridors and finally came to a small room.

This is the radio wave room of the Tianshu base. The Tianshu realm has always relied on the radio waves here to transmit messages with other realms.

At this moment, several staff members inside saw Su Zhiwei coming and stood up:

"Lord Hongchen, do you have any instructions?"

Su Zhiwei spoke without hesitation:

"Connect me to Lord Lingxu."
