Chapter 36 The artifact appears!
"who?"
Xia Ren pushed open the study door and came to the living room, but no one was there.
But the door was open, and he had clearly seen someone sneak in, where did he run?
A sense of alertness arose in his heart. He held the ear-digging spoon in his hand tightly and searched around him.
Someone must have come in and hid in the living room.
"Is it the wanted middle-aged man?"
However, no one should know that I live here.
"Who are you? What about that woman?"
Suddenly, the sound of someone talking came from behind.
Xia Ren turned around and found that it was the young man at noon, holding a kitchen knife in both hands and walking out of the kitchen.
"You are breaking into my house now, so I should ask you this."
Xia Ren glanced at the knife in his hand and frowned: "What are you going to do?"
The young man couldn't find Zhao Mingyue everywhere, and looked at Xia Ren who was two taller than him, and his words were a little unsightly:
"At noon, the woman promised me not to call the police, but then I saw the police coming and she lied to me!"
Xia Ren subconsciously rubbed his temples: "What about?"
"I want to ask her in person why she lied to me. I clearly did everything according to her requirements."
The expression on the young man's face was a little anxious: "Tell me quickly, where is she?"
"You need to hold a knife when you find someone?"
Xia Ren didn't dare to relax: "Stop pretending, you are not afraid at all, why bother to show off like this?"
"You can see it so soon."
The young man was stunned for a moment, scratching his head as if embarrassed, throwing the knife to the ground, making a "bang".
Xia Ren saw a trace that was knocked out on the floor and raised his eyebrows: "I want to pay for it."
"How did you find out?"
The young man selectively ignored his words and said, "I shouldn't have revealed any flaws."
"I also want to ask how you found this place."
Seeing that the other party seemed to have no hostility, Xia Ren pointed to the sofa next to him and said, "Sit down and say?"
He could feel that the other party's strength was probably the same as a type of infected body, which was much weaker than Fang Bin, so he was not very concerned about it.
But the system is getting lazy and lazy. After I have the ability to perceive, I don’t even give me a prompt.
The young man sat on the sofa calmly, looking curious: "What is your relationship with that woman, and how did you see me?"
"Let's talk about your own situation first."
The young man smiled awkwardly, rubbed his hands, and said, "Since I came out at noon, everyone outside turned a blind eye to me. I was so scared that I thought to go to the hospital to see if I had any mental problems. As a result, I happened to see her coming out of the hospital, and there was a person covered in black smoke behind me. I followed him from afar, and saw them entering the room, and then heard a quarrel inside, so I didn't dare to come in for a while. I didn't dare to come over until the sound disappeared. I happened to find that you could see me, so I was a little nervous..."
"Stop lying, okay?" Xia Ren was a little bored.
As an infected person, he should at least understand the fact that he was dead. How could he run to the hospital and encounter him so by chance.
Suddenly, he realized that his emotions were not right.
When did I become so impatient?
"Sorry, I can't change it for a while."
The young man no longer laughed intentionally: "I just wanted to call the police with that woman's hand and let the police superintendent find my body. There was no malice. Later, I wanted her to help me do something, so I followed her and planned to find an opportunity to tell her. I didn't expect that she would encounter so many troubles later. And I watched her enter the house, but it disappeared after I came in. I really wanted to find her, and I wanted to protect myself with a kitchen knife. These are the truth, you have to believe me."
"So, how long have you been in the house where the killer you?"
There was also a suspect who had seen Zhao Mingyue's appearance escaped. Xia Ren did not find that the young man was infected at that time, so when he finally reminded the other party that the thief had entered the family, it must have attracted their attention. Maybe he could find this place. He should take the opportunity to learn more about the other party's situation. After all, there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. If the escaped man was not arrested and brought to justice, he would have to bear a great risk if he wanted to use the mask of a faceless person in the future.
"My memories before my death are a little blurry and I can't remember them, and I just woke up yesterday."
"How did they kill you and why did they kill you? I can't remember this?"
"I really don't remember."
The young man looked dim: "However, it's not hard to guess. Maybe I was caught when I went to his house to steal something. There was an accident. Strangely, I didn't hate them at all when I woke up. Maybe it was really wrong for me."
Xia Ren thinks that things are not that simple. If he really thinks what he said, the couple killed him by mistake. Why did her husband rush out with a knife when facing the police?
It seems that if you continue to ask, you won’t get any useful clues. He said, “What is your wish? I’ll hear if I can help you.”
After all, the achievement point that comes to your door is in vain.
The young man hesitated for a long time and said, "I have dropped out of school and stayed at home since early on. I have been idle and have gradually become accustomed to stealing things with people. My mother passed away early and my father never married me again. I pulled me up alone. I went back yesterday, but no matter how I did, I didn't do it. He liked to play cards and often lost money, but every time I asked for money, he could always take out some of them for me. I have never thought about these before, but I just understood it too late. Not only did he not save his worries, but he couldn't even do filial piety. I think, let you help me go back and see him and say to him... sorry."
Xia Ren didn't speak for a long time. Just when the young man thought he was going to refuse, he heard him say:
"I don't think he needs your apology."
"What?"
Xia Ren sighed and said, "Give me the address, I will help you see it tomorrow if I have time."
He took out paper and pen from the coffee table and unexpectedly found that the note that remembered the phone number of Mrs. Liu's son was still there.
Some people live until they die, and some people only want to go back after they die. The infected bodies they meet are all things that carry the deceased's wishes during their lifetime.
The young man was ecstatic: "Thank you so much!"
He lay on the coffee table, wrote most of the pictures in crooked handwriting, and then handed them to Xia Ren.
"If possible, please tear off the last paragraph and give it to my dad."
"I will."
Xia Ren glanced at it and put the note into the drawer.
"Then now, please die."
"ah?"
The young man grew up and saw a tentacle as thick as a forearm growing out from behind Xia Ren's head and extending to the ceiling. The tentacles obscured the light. In the dim dark, he saw the dense suction cups on it, squirming constantly, eager to eat.
Distorted, weird, incomprehensible.
How could humans grow this thing?
Xia Ren, who was sitting in front of him, was like a monster in the abyss, making him feel scared from the bottom of his heart.
In an instant, the tentacles entangled him at an extremely fast speed, and he had no time to resist and completely lost consciousness.
[Congratulations to the host for receiving a reward of 50 achievement points, current achievement points: 350.]
"I'm a killer who is not emotional."
Xia Ren licked his lips and was very satisfied with the gain this time.
"But if I remember correctly, I was not so straightforward or indifferent in the past."
He called out his personal page, which item is polluted, 20/100 (sane distortion) is very conspicuous.
"I'm going to buy a bottle of medicine."
Xia Ren opened the store page and found that in addition to anti-pollution liquid and coin exchange, there were two more things:
Old Seal (500 Achievement Points): The marks from ancient times can avoid pollutants to a certain extent, can be redeemed repeatedly, and can be upgraded (note that the current level avoidance effect is limited to Class II infected bodies and below.)
Physics Holy Sword (500 Achievement Point): The containment, although it is a crowbar, contains mysterious power, which can cause huge damage to pollutants and can be upgraded (the current level applies to: Class I infectious bodies.)
Xia Ren watched it repeatedly for a long time, and finally looked at his achievement points of 350 in the lower right corner, and murmured:
"Save points, don't change the medicine."
If he could know the consequences, he would definitely regret this seemingly rational decision.
Chapter completed!
