Shen Yan made a lot of noise, and the people in the warehouse also woke up.
Someone lit a kerosene lamp, walked toward the window with the lamp, and poked his head outside, but found nothing.
Even the locust cubs lay on the window in confusion and looked around.
Shen Yan: "..."
Can't anyone else see it? It's like it's just printed on Shen Yan's retina.
The scary-looking old man seemed to be afraid of the light and no longer leaned against the window, but he still did not leave and was floating outside.
Everyone looked at each other: "Is there really something nearby that we can't see?"
Confuse.
Zhao Kuo glanced at Shen Yan and said, "Maybe there really is."
Shen Yan couldn't help but froze, Gulu, the cold swooshing feeling came up again.
Zhao Kuo said: "You have seen the spirit race. In addition to their appearance being different from humans, their lifespan being longer than humans, and their movements being more agile than humans, they also have another characteristic."
"They have more inspiration than humans and can see things that normal people can't see."
Others also became interested: "I have had some contact with the spirit tribe before, and they sometimes become very strange. For example, when walking on the road, they will suddenly walk around inexplicably. There is nothing in front of them, and they look very strange. Weird.”
"Sometimes they talk into the air."
Someone said: "Aren't they communicating with nature? I heard that the Spirit Race is particularly close to nature."
Now it seems that he is not necessarily communicating with nature.
Zhao Kuo once fought side by side with the Spirit Tribe led by the White King Xiao Lingchen, and knew more about the Spirit Tribe. He said: "There are two professions in the Spirit Tribe, called the Psychic and the Corpse Whisperer. They have very magical abilities. Spirit masters and corpse whisperers are held by those with extraordinary inspiration from the spirit race."
Shen Yan's mind was buzzing: "Inspiration?"
He touched his ears and found that they had not become pointy or long: "But... I am a human being."
Zhao Kuo thought for a while and said: "Similar to the sequelae of the spirit clan's inspiration."
He was a little confused at the beginning. Shen Yan had experienced a revelation ceremony that was beyond his ability. Why was there no compensatory behavior? Now it seems that it is not that there is no compensation, but that it has not been discovered.
Shen Yan opened his mouth, not knowing what his expression should be for a moment.
At this time, the compartment in the warehouse was opened, and Jiang Yu revealed his head: "You have good side effects."
"Look at me." Jiang Yu shook his exaggerated chest.
The warehouse is a mixed dormitory for men and women, with only a partition separating them.
Shen Yan: "..."
He was really comforted. Compared to Jiang Yu's sequelae, this seemed to be nothing.
Sure enough, everything needs to be compared to know whether it is miserable or not.
Zhao Kuo said: "This is not necessarily a bad thing."
"Everyone has inspiration, but the intensity is different. Inspiration that exceeds that of ordinary people can not only see these things, but also the power of the soul."
After saying that, a tiger, a leopard and a vicious dog jumped out from Zhao Kuo's shadow.
"Do you see any difference between them?"
Shen Yan looked confused. These three beasts were no different from when they were basking in the sun at the door.
But something seemed different immediately.
Shen Yan: "Huh?"
Transparent waves suddenly rolled up on the bodies of the three beasts. How can I describe it, like the folding of flames under high temperature, like the ripples of flames.
Zhao Kuo: "This is the enchantment ritual among the three basic mercenary rituals. It attaches the power of the soul to the heroic spirit."
"Super high inspiration can directly see the strength of the attached soul power."
The Eldar take advantage of this trait to be able to perform and respond better during battle.
The damage caused by soul power is not only effective on contaminated monsters, it can also beat people into idiots. After all, people are composed of two parts: body and soul.
Shen Yan thought to himself that it was not entirely a bad thing. At least he could choose to escape in advance when he saw a heroic spirit with powerful soul power.
Seeking good luck and avoiding evil is of course not 100% accurate, because the mercenary can control the amount of power of the enchanted soul.
The warehouse became lively.
The relationship between Shen Yan and Jiang Yu has improved inexplicably. It is estimated that they are both people with sequelae?
The two of them were muttering in the corner.
Jiang Yu: "Let me tell you how I adapted to the sequelae."
Shen Yan thought to himself that he didn't want to know the psychological transformation process from male to female. He looked around and whispered: "Tell...be careful. Don't miss any details."
Then he asked curiously in a low voice: "Your good brother Ji Zhuo asked you to have a baby. How did you answer?"
He was most curious about this.
Jiang Yu was shocked. How did Shen Yan know that Ji Zhuo liked to say such flirtatious things to him in private when no one was around?
Although Ji Zhuo was usually very shy, when no one was around, he looked like a different person.
Jiang Yu thought to himself that giving birth to a child is nothing. It is the process that one has to go through to have a child. That is his good brother...
After being noisy for a while, everyone went back to sleep as they had to work tomorrow.
Shen Yan did not turn off the lights and placed the kerosene lamp on the window. The flames would scare away the scary ghosts outside.
I kept comforting myself in my heart. Ah Piao has nothing to be afraid of. He was there before, but he just couldn't see it. In essence, there was no change at all.
However, the coolness in my heart did not dissipate so easily.
After thinking about it, he quietly approached Zhao Kuo. He had to find something to talk about to dispel the fear in his heart.
A low-pitched voice said: "Don't tell others about what happened during the day."
It’s put rather euphemistically, but people who understand will understand.
Zhao Kuo turned his head and said in a low voice: "Is it really that exciting?"
He could overcome the mental pollution caused by old documents. Didn't he just kneel with his feet straight above the opponent's head.
Shen Yan wanted to cover the other person's mouth, not saying what should be said, and speaking vigorously about what should not be said. It was because he was infected and his twisted emotions were infinitely magnified, that... he felt particularly exciting.
I returned to my bed angrily, but now I had no time to think about what was going on outside.
…
The next day, when Shen Yan got up, the sun was shining brightly. The summer sun always rises so early.
The sunshine dispelled all the gloom, and no one could be seen.
Shen Yan also breathed a sigh of relief. In other words, he didn't have to worry about seeing those scary ghosts during the day. As for night, he could just stay in the warehouse and light the kerosene lamp.
After walking out of the warehouse, Zhao Kuo was planing wood outside.
Zhao Kuo's clothes are somewhat like marching clothes, smart and close-fitting. Like a burly soldier, the clothes seemed unable to hide the bulging and strong muscles.
Shen Yan muttered: "There is no sense of abstinence at all."
However, Zhao Kuo didn't go out today?
Shen Yan didn't ask any questions and just fetched water to wash himself.
Today, Shen Yan originally wanted to help plan some wood. Now the business in the shop is on the rise, and the demand for tables and stools is also much greater.
As a result, around eleven o'clock in the morning, Jiang Yu came back, taking Ji Zhuo with him.
Ji Zhuo: "The security station caught the murderer who caused the recent infections in the city."
Not only Shen Yan was stunned, but Zhao Kuo was also startled. Last night, he asked Jiang Yu to go to the security booth to find someone to keep an eye on the murderer. As a result, the murderer was caught today?
Ji Zhuo is a team leader within the Security Pavilion, so this news should not be false.
After Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, he directly picked up his sleeves. He wanted to see who the murderer was. He almost killed him, and his death was particularly miserable.
The Security Pavilion is in Shangcheng District, not too close.
They were riding in a patrol car driven by Ji Zhuo, which was specially designed for the security booth. It was buzzing with white steam.
Shen Yan couldn't help but look at Ji Zhuo and calculated the time. Jiang Yu went to Ji Zhuo early in the morning for help. Ji Zhuo brought the news at this time. He probably didn't stop running all the way.
I'm interested.
Jiang Yu glared at Shen Yan. Shen Yan's expression was that he was his brother. Although this brother wanted to have children with him when he had no one else, he also said that he liked to smell his fragrance, and... there was something even more disturbing. His face was so red that he was embarrassed to say it.
People cannot be judged by their appearance.
By the time Shen Yan and the others arrived at the security pavilion, it was already noon.
People who were not from the security booth were not allowed in, but with Ji Zhuo's help and avoiding everyone's sight, Shen Yan and the others successfully met the murderer.
He's a middle-aged man who looks...a bit plain?
Ji Zhuo brought a stack of documents: "This is the result of the interrogation."
Shen Yan looked at it and didn't recognize a single word of the common human language. He couldn't help but look at Zhao Kuo.
Zhao Kuo frowned slightly: "The murderer is a civilian from Xiacheng District. His name is Zhang Geng. He accidentally obtained a highly contagious aberration."
"Selling this aberration to a mercenary group could have yielded a good profit, but Zhang Geng suddenly had an evil thought that he had never thought of..."
"Selling a piece of aberration is just a profit, and the money will always be spent, so he thought, why not use the piece of aberration in his hand to create more infected people, so that he can continue to He sells the corpses of infected people in order to survive and live a good life, so this idea led him to create the recent deaths of infected people..."
This is roughly what the interrogation materials contain.
To put it bluntly, this is an extreme crime caused by extreme poverty and in order to survive.
It's both sad and hateful.
This is the result of the Sheriff's Office investigation.
Ji Zhuo said: "When we caught him, he was selling the bodies of infected people."
"Through interrogation, he also confessed that the recent tragedy was all caused by him."
Shen Yan looked at Zhao Kuo with some confusion.
Is the source of the pollution an aberration, not the old documents he saw?
The murderer suddenly came up with the idea that instead of selling the aberrations, he would use them to infect more people and make more money?
It seems to be consistent with recent events. The murderer has been found, the motive for the crime has been established, and the murderer has also admitted it.
A perfect ending.
But something seemed wrong.
Jiang Yu probably didn't tell Ji Zhuo how Shen Yan was infected, otherwise some of the problems would have been discovered.
Shen Yan asked Zhao Kuo in a low voice: "Didn't you say that the infected people who died in the city were very seriously infected? They are all guessing that they were caused by pollutants. Can such an aberration be convincing now?"
Zhao Kuo replied: "General aberrations naturally cannot do it, but corpses excavated from ruins, although they are also called aberrations, are very contagious."
"The number of aberrations from the ruins is rare, but there are one or two mixed in the mess of merchandise on the market. It is possible that someone accidentally obtained them."
Therefore, if this result is announced in this way, it will be acceptable to people who have nothing to do with it.
However, the real murderer may not have thought that one person infected by old documents could survive, and Shen Yan became the flaw in this scam.
Zhao Kuo said to Ji Zhuo: "Don't let others know that we were here today. The results of the investigation at the security booth will be released as usual."
Zhao Kuo said to Shen Yan again: "In the past few days, you have been hanging around in conspicuous places..."
The more Shen Yan listened, the more something seemed wrong.
The murderer asked someone to take the blame and arranged a deceptive scam to end the matter.
As soon as the investigation results of the security booth are released, the real murderer will definitely breathe a sigh of relief and lower his vigilance. But if at this time, Shen Yan, who is supposed to be dead and has experienced part of the truth, appears in the murderer's sight again, the murderer will How to do it?
It must be to avoid unnecessary complications and solve Shen Yan's flaw as quickly as possible.
I don't know why, besides being nervous, Shen Yan was also inexplicably excited.
First, he is the flaw in this incident, and the murderer will definitely find him. Instead of waiting for the murderer to attack him in the dark, it is better to take the initiative and draw the other party out, so as not to be worried every moment.
Second, there might be other old documents of the same type on the murderer's body.
The secret of the giant ruins on the mountain should be hidden in these diaries.
