"Twenty-one...twenty-one."
Soon, the statistical results came out. The captain named Zhao came back with a heavy face. When he reported to Zhan Jingyi, his voice was trembling slightly.
Before, one or two disappeared, sometimes only seven or eight, but now... twenty-one disappeared in an instant.
It can be seen that the number of people disappearing is increasing!
"I seem to understand a little bit."
Hearing this number, Zhan Jingyi showed a smile on his face, nodded, picked up a chair, and sat at the door of the restaurant.
He discovered that every time the pollution brought by this monster seemed to increase in value.
From three or five, to seven or eight, then to a dozen, and finally to twenty-one...
Although from a numerical point of view, there does not seem to be such an accurate value, maybe it is because the people who are not noticed are random?
Normally, the mental level of the mental monster is increasing, so it can capture more and more people, but it still needs to be able to capture people without the target being noticed.
"The commotion outside just now was caused by your companions deliberately to attract our attention?"
Zhan Jingyi thought silently, overturning a previous conclusion.
He had thought before that if he wanted to deal with this monster, he would have to do it unless someone had enough power to make people all over the world stare at him.
But now, he doesn't think so.
Because even if someone has so much power, that mental monster can keep catching people who stare at him.
Theoretically, everyone will disappear eventually, and no matter how powerful this person is, they will fall into the hands of this monster, and there is no way to stop it.
The same theory also made Zhan Jingyi think about himself. I had just waited for it in a separate room for so long. Why didn't this monster come to me?
Does this mean that it thinks I'm more difficult to deal with than others, so it doesn't dare to come to me?
Or is this monster a little afraid of me?
However, if its power can be superimposed and upward, then when everyone is caught by it, will the last one come to deal with me?
Thinking about it this way, this logic seems to be smooth and completely possible.
…
At this time, Zhan Jingyi's dissatisfaction with this monster was slowly increasing.
He could feel the worries, expectations, and questioning eyes of everyone in the room looking at him.
Perhaps these eyes also include a proud and greedy monster looking at him.
Originally, people here believed in themselves.
In particular, Vice President Bi and others regarded themselves as professionals and felt that they could handle all these matters. In order to help him properly, they even gave him a watch worth 100,000 yuan.
But now, he was helpless in front of this monster, as if he had become a laughing stock.
Moreover, this time, even Vice President Bi disappeared, which made Zhan Jingyi feel angry...
It’s also a bit embarrassing! So very angry!
And this anger also made his shadow under the light a little scattered.
…
"Okay, I've found a way to deal with it."
Zhan Jingyi sat on the chair at the door, leaning back slightly and leaning on the door frame.
Captain Zhao, Zhu Long and others, including the soldiers, crew members, etc., were all startled when they heard this, with expectant expressions on their faces.
"Now you don't have to stare at each other like before, because if you do that, you won't last until the end. Sooner or later you will be tired, and sooner or later you will be captured by that monster."
Zhan Jingyi spoke slowly, looking around the room. At this moment, the calmness in his eyes had reached its extreme.
And a person's eyes are extremely calm, showing indifference.
"Now my words are for you."
Zhan Jingyi's eyes were unfocused, as if he were looking at some non-existent monster in this room, and he said quietly: "I know you are in this room now, and you can hear me... Of course you can't. It doesn’t matter, I’ve decided to do it anyway.”
"Someone taught me that when faced with strange things, reason is the only advantage human beings have."
"Now I'll fight with you for your sanity!"
As he spoke, he took out a notebook from his bag, and then wrote it down one by one. After writing one line, he read: "First, through the previous analysis, and the fact that you took advantage of the commotion outside just now to disperse, The act of arresting so many of us because of our attention has confirmed my suspicion that you can only arrest those who are not noticed."
"This also proves that you have been in this room and observed everyone."
"Secondly, if you want to arrest the people on this ship, it stands to reason that you should arrest Zhong Qiang at the earliest, because if you arrest him, everyone here will become confused and panicked, which will make it easier for you to attack."
"Moreover, when you first started taking action, Zhong Qiang was also resting in the room, alone. It would be most convenient for you to arrest him, but you didn't. You even went into the toilet to arrest him..."
"Haha, a monster that gets into the toilet and catches people..."
"I originally thought it was because Zhong Qiang has some skills, so you didn't dare to capture him easily. But just now, you took this opportunity to capture him, even if he was sitting next to me..."
"So, from the beginning, it's not that you didn't want to catch him, but you didn't have the chance. Since he appeared, because he is the commander, everyone here has focused on him."
"He's the guy who gets the most attention here, and he's also the guy you'll have the most trouble catching."
"In that case, the question comes back, why didn't you go to his room and catch him in the first place?"
Having said this, Zhan Jingyi narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice: "It's because you can't do it."
"Because he is very vigilant when sleeping. He always locks the door and closes the windows, so you can't get in."
As he spoke, a smile appeared on Zhan Jingyi's face, and he raised his pen and wrote: "So, based on these analyses, it is inferred that you have an entity."
"You can just make people unable to see you, or even touch you? Can't touch you?"
"Hmm... I doubt that."
"But no matter what, this is different from disappearing into thin air. Even if no one can see you, you still have to avoid people when you go out, and then go through actions such as opening and closing doors, opening and closing windows..."
"After all, I have also received professional training in the area of mental pollution. Mental abilities can affect people, but they cannot change some laws of the real world."
"Thirdly, you spent time with me from afternoon to night, like a timid coward. And I just waited for you in my room for so long, but I didn't wait for you to come to me. Does this mean that, in fact, you Have you always been particularly afraid of me?"
"In that case, it's easy."
Having said this, he breathed a long sigh of relief, took out a black iron box from his pocket, took two cigarettes with golden filters from it, threw one to Captain Zhao, and then threw Give a candle to the dragon.
Then he smoked one and lit it slowly, blew out a smoke ring, and watched the smoke ring slowly dissipate. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised at a strange angle, and he said softly: "Why should I look for you? I know where you are?" You’re enough in this room.”
"I'm right here, guarding the door, not letting you have the chance to leave."
"Believe me."
"Whether you get out of my way or break a window to escape, I'm sure to find you."
Having said this, Zhan Jingyi paused for a moment, smiled brightly, and continued with a sinister voice: "The moment I catch you, I will make you regret coming to this world..."
"So, do you want to come out and surrender now? If you surrender now, you will be committing a crime at most. I can also ask the government for a lighter sentence on your behalf. At least you won't be as miserable as you were after I caught you!"
After finishing speaking, Zhan Jingyi looked around and waited for a while. When his cigarette was almost finished, the surroundings were still quiet and no mental monster appeared.
Seeing this scene, Zhan Jingyi sighed. It seemed that he wanted to scare it into coming out on its own, but failed!
