Overturned Tower

Before Russell entered the Hive Nightclub, he was still worried about Xiao Liuli's current situation.

——To be precise, when Russell heard from the bad guy that "Xiao Liuli was in the nightclub", he could not help but feel worried and indignant about her.

In the Tianen Group, which is the king of the entertainment industry, Xiao Liuli transformed more than half of her body into a beautifying prosthesis. This was probably not just for the sake of working as a reporter, but because she came here with the goal of becoming an "idol" from the beginning.

Considering the huge cost of prosthetic transformation and the cyberpsychosis that may be caused by high-intensity cyber transformation, it was probably not her who transformed herself... but someone behind her who was silently supporting her with funds.

This support certainly cannot be free.

Then she might be a plaything of some big shot... or a prop.

Her prosthetic eye, which can secretly photograph with extremely high definition, may have been funded by the big shot behind her. The purpose is to infiltrate other big shots and use your body to secretly photograph or steal some criminal evidence or important information to bring down someone.

After all, business wars on TV and in novels are all played out like this - otherwise, if it is just for "beauty", there is no need to install such expensive prosthetic eyes.

It's impossible for the rich man behind her to help her transform with the concept of "expensive is beautiful", right?

However, such worries completely dissipated immediately after Russell entered the Beehive Nightclub——

In Russell's impression, the nightclub should be a place for drinking and singing that looks magnificent and solemn, with either gold bricks or marble pasted on it. However, his first impression of the Honeycomb Nightclub was more like a dark Internet cafe and an underground game arcade.

After entering the venue, it is a bright color scheme that has a very cybernetic feel. Amidst the interweaving and flashing lights of blue, red, green, and purple, there is a very long corridor.

A giant doll with an exaggerated smile suddenly popped up on the right side of the door, holding a box and bowing and waving to him.

It's like the kind of giant, slow-moving and clumsy cute creature that often appears in shopping malls for promotions. But the difference is that this thing is not cute at all - it is roughly the position of the head, with a lot of curly hair forming a strange Mediterranean hairstyle, ugly facial features, and a fat body. The facial features tried hard to form a flattering and ugly smile, and the wide-open mouth reminded people of a clown.

When he saw Russell coming in from the door, he immediately jumped over. Holding the box in his hand, he blocked Russell's way.

When Russell walked in and saw such an ugly thing, he was frightened and trembled all over.

He looked at it for a while before he realized it was a living person wearing a puppet suit.

... Absolutely, whose mascot is so hellish?

Generally speaking, aren’t these puppet costumes cute? This one is so good, it looks like it was just dug out of the dressing room of the Tokyo Olympics...

Russell was shocked, and when he looked carefully, he noticed that the box he was holding was filled with white masks.

There are two kinds of masks in the box, one is a crying face mask and the other is a smiling face mask.

"Shall I choose one to wear?"

Russell endured the nausea in his heart and asked politely.

The clumsy and ugly Mediterranean doll bowed to itself in an exaggerated way. Russell guessed that it wanted to nod in agreement, but the neck of the puppet was very short, making it difficult to nod.

Russell observed that there were not many Crying Masks left, but there were many Smiling Masks left.

Is this because many people choose crying face masks...or are there just not many crying face masks?

Considering that the bad guy seems to be a very reliable person. He didn't explain clearly to himself the precautions involved, so it probably didn't matter what he chose.

So Russell put on a smiling mask for himself based on what is pleasing to the eye.

The short, fat puppet jumped up and down happily and danced funny dances.

Russell tried not to look at him and politely thanked him.

After all, everyone is a laborer, and it’s not easy for you, brother...

After Russell put on the mask, he continued walking forward.

He just reached the end of the long corridor and turned around. He heard the door creak open again behind him.

He was a little curious and had a little bad taste, wanting to see the new guests be frightened. So Russell looked back with a smile.

--boom!

As a result, he directly heard a very clear muffled sound.

Entering the door were two girls who looked very young. Judging by his attire, he looks like a high school student.

After they entered, a girl with brown curly hair and bear ears punched the ugly doll costume at the door.

"Good morning, Mr. Bengbeng!"

After she punched him, she said hello with a smile. It was a voice that sounded very sunny and enthusiastic.

The ugly and funny Mediterranean fat man doll immediately made a very exaggerated move and fell heavily to the ground with the help of force.

His puppet suit seemed to contain something like a sandbag - the sound when he hit it didn't sound like it was hitting someone, but more like punching a sandbag. Moreover, the sandbag has been specially treated to make it make a louder sound to increase the "hit".

When the doll fell to the ground, he was careful not to let the masks fall to the ground. Instead, he put the box holding the mask on the ground next to him.

Of course you can't talk while wearing a Muppet costume, that's an industry rule. So the Mediterranean puppet with an exaggerated smile on his face used rich body movements to express begging for mercy with a comic effect, making the two girls laugh.

The other girl who didn't punch was significantly smaller and thinner than the girl with bear ears next to her.

There are a few dark blue scales scattered on her body, and she has a long, lizard-like tail. Seeing that the doll was still on the ground begging for mercy but not getting up, she picked up her skirt, ran over and lightly kicked the Mediterranean doll kneeling on the ground.

"Mr. Bengbeng, get up and get us masks!"

The lizard girl was obviously well-educated, so she didn't raise her legs too high when kicking someone in a miniskirt. Probably only knee height was mentioned.

The puppet was kicked and made a loud sound. He also fell back in an exaggerated way, hit the wall in an exaggerated way and then bounced back in an exaggerated way, with that exaggerated smile still on his face.

Then it knelt on the ground and raised the box containing the mask for the two of them to choose.

Russell looked at this scene and shrank his neck in discomfort.

...It turns out that the puppet pretended to be so annoying because it was specially placed at the door to be beaten.

No wonder the corridor is so empty. Probably to prevent breaking or breaking something.

Mr. "Bengbeng"'s puppet suit even has protection inside, which should be to prevent the heavyweight boxing of guests equipped with power-type prosthetic hands; and its "sound-enhancing" effect is to increase the impact. , so that teenagers and girls who have no strength and no equipped fighting prosthetics can play more enjoyable.

This is the...daily entertainment of the residents of Happy Island?

Russell's mood was a little complicated.

The two girls seemed to see Russell.

They looked up. Russell noticed that they were all wearing crying face masks, which were different from him.

"Yo!"

The taller girl waved to Russell warmly.

Russell was so frightened that he turned around and ran back. Although it felt like they probably wouldn't rush over and punch him, Russell still retreated subconsciously.

Mainly because I didn't dare to stay and talk to them...

After seeing the scene of them beating people, Russell felt a little guilty for no reason. It’s like the feeling I had when I was a kid when I checked out information at an Internet bar for the first time. I heard that “they were all bad kids” there, so I felt a little frightened as soon as I entered the door, and I felt a little unspeakable excitement and anxiety. I didn’t dare to talk to anyone, and I just Dare to shake your head and nod.

After walking around the corner, the two thick leather curtains in front reminded Russell of the memory of that time.

Curtains made of this material have quite good sound and light insulation effects.

After lifting the thick curtain, Russell saw an even more exciting scene than before——
