Chapter 110 Overlapping clues

The warrior holding a pitch-black sword rushed over, and within a few seconds entered Chen Yan's blind spot - that was most of the area outside the window and behind the door.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar neighing sound sounded. Chen Yan had heard this sound at night in the zoo. He was so impressed by it that for many nights after that, this sound became his midnight dream recall.

A nightmare that never goes away.

Chen Yan remembered that then and now, the third uncle was outside the door and he was inside the door. There was always a thin door between them.

The neighing sound produced by the mutated human mouth sounded extremely harsh. Just by the sound invading the eardrums, I felt that my spirit could not bear it, and my consciousness seemed to go crazy with the strange sound.

What rang out along with it was the sharp clang of metal meeting each other, and the low roar of a human male trying his best.

Marina subconsciously protected her belly with her left hand, and took out a fruit knife from under the pillow with her right hand. She retreated to the bed near the corner and stared at the door of the room warily, like a frightened female animal.

Moments after the sound of fighting, a wailing sound accompanied by a neighing sound was heard.

Third uncle is injured!

After a while, the indistinguishable voice of male and female appeared again with a hissing sound.

"Mom, I will come back to see you!"

The hatred in that voice made people feel heartbroken.

"You'd better stay here forever!"

The third uncle's voice was so abnormal that it was outrageous.

Chen Yan realized that the [corruption] that happened to his third uncle made him gradually lose his mind, just like he did at night in the zoo. The half-human, half-snake monster outside the door had become the same as the usual third uncle.

Completely different.

Chen Yan could probably imagine what the third uncle had gone through, and he could even imagine how the third uncle had fallen to this point:

It must have been an evening when the setting sun was fading. The third uncle who had survived the chaos was holding on to the wall, his eyes wandering over the people in the shadows. There might be only one thought left in his head: no matter what he became, he wanted to live.

Go down...

In the dark alley, blood representing vitality flowed out of the incurable wound. The blood had been flowing uncontrollably for half an afternoon, which meant that his life as a human being was about to come to an end.

In order to survive, he mobilized the blood of demi-humans and used extraordinary power, and paid the price of becoming a snake.

His skin began to degenerate, the cuticles all over his body hardened into scales, and his round pupils gradually became twisted and hideous, turning into inhuman vertical pupils.

But even if he transforms into a demihuman form, the incurable wounds are still there.

In order to fight against the continuous passage of life, it chose to take the initiative to [corrupt] in order to obtain more powerful vitality to fight against the approaching shadow of death...

While Chen Yan was filling up a few scenes in his mind, he heard the sound of his third uncle's hurried and staggering footsteps gradually disappearing.

Immediately afterwards, a man's worried voice sounded from behind the door.

"Marlena, are you okay?"

The woman inside the door did not relax her vigilance, and held the knife in her hand tighter.

"Jack, I told you not to hit this kid's attention."

Marlena has always been puzzled by the man's enthusiasm. Even though they have been together for several months, she still thinks that he has other agendas.

The man's name is Jack...

Chen Yan had a bad feeling in her heart.

Jack explained awkwardly: "Marlena, you misunderstood. I just happened to get off work at this time, and I happened to see the monster just now... When you see others in danger, you should help within your ability. You

Say yes?"

Marina sneered silently.

She had heard all kinds of lies told by men countless times over the course of her bad career.

Compared to the men's "sincere" lies, the words of the guy outside the door seemed very low-level in comparison.

He just wants my child.

Marina thought.

He just wants my child to work in a factory when he grows up and earn two pence a day as his cigarette money.

Or... he wants my child to be like me and use his blood to light cigarettes to prolong his life.

Marina gently stroked her belly and made a sound that only she could hear.

"Don't be afraid, baby, mommy will protect you."

The sense of security generated by the touch flowed through Chen Yan's body. This feeling was amazing. The woman was obviously very thin and malnourished, and even the knife might not be able to stab it out stably. How could she protect her child?

"Jack." Her tone was slightly softer, as if she had realized the reality. "Jack, go back. I can't do anything for you. My child is about to be born. I can't light your cigarette with blood anymore."

Already..."

Light a cigarette with blood...

Chen Yan opened his eyes wide.

The Jack outside the door is Jack Baldo, who used a blood-stained cigarette to escape from the state of a living corpse!

So, this Malina is the corner girl from the Powder Keg Gang in the story told by Geralt Siff in Night at the Zoo!

Malina is also the third uncle's target, which shows that Malina is also the "corner girl whose blood has the unique ability to recover" as Quentin "The Brain" said.

this……

Hearing Marina say this, Jack outside the door made a shocked sound.

"I didn't mean to do anything! I just wanted to make sure you were safe!"

The shock was mixed with a little concealed grievance.

"I don't have to use blood-stained cigarettes to survive..."

"I'm leaving now..."

Footsteps sounded.

The woman let out a gentle breath, as if relieved, and put down the fruit knife in her hand.

"Oh, right."

Jack's sudden voice made Marina raise the fruit knife again as if she was in a hurry.

"He will definitely come back... He is the one who wants the child in your belly."

Marina was frightened by his words, and she cursed fiercely:

"I'll be moving soon!"

Jack Bardo whispered: "Marlena, don't get excited, you may not be able to move. It's been very chaotic outside recently...even more chaotic and dangerous than the dirty streets."

This news reached Marina's ears and became the most deadly threat.

"Jack Baldo, if I die, you will become a living corpse forever!"

Jack Baldo outside the door sighed: "Hey, Marina, it is my fate to become a living corpse. There is only a little flame left in the fire in my chest. When the flame goes out, I will completely become a living corpse."

...It’s you, Marina, I’m worried about you.”

Marina didn't understand what he did at all.

Where in the world can there be help that is so generous that it does not require any compensation?

If he didn't have other intentions, why would he help me like this?!

The confusion in her heart was driving her crazy. The hormones that were already active during pregnancy made her emotionally unstable and her blood pressure increased under such stimulation. She screamed frantically: "Why are you worried about me!"

A confused voice came from outside the door: "You are obviously in danger... Isn't it a just thing to help a person in danger?

Upholding justice is what we should do!"

These words reached Marlena's ears, and turned into a sinister excuse and a more deadly threat.

"Jack Baldo, I will never use blood to light cigarettes for you again, even after my child is born." Marina said through gritted teeth.

"Oh, it's okay." Jack Baldo's understatement caused Marina's fragile nerves to completely collapse.
