Chapter 5: Signs
The stinking garbage disposal site, the middle-aged man in the stained clothes didn't care about the pungent smell, munched on the lunch box in his hand, the TV in the hut was playing the noon news, and the host was broadcasting all kinds of news in K City in recent times, and the previous frequent disappearances seemed to have been solved, and there had been no news about those disappearances for several days.
After some light-hearted and interesting social news was broadcast, the host picked up a new draft, and the face on the screen changed slightly, but he still read the news with a standard accent.
"At nine o'clock this morning, the police station of Anliu District of our city received a call from the public that a murder occurred in Jiangyuan Community, Anliu District, and after rushing to the scene, according to the investigation, the victim, female, 21 years old, engaged in the bar service industry, surveillance video shows that at 11 o'clock last night, she returned to the rented house in Jiangyuan Community with a man, and then at two o'clock in the morning today, the man left Jiangyuan Community alone. ”
"At present, the police have listed him as the chief suspect, this is a photo of the suspect, the suspect is male, 1.8 meters, about 25 years old, the police cannot confirm his identity at present, this person's modus operandi is extremely cruel, I hope that all citizens will pay more attention, if you have clues, please provide them to the police. ”
Someone outside the hut was shouting: "Lao Li, hurry up and come out to work, this is too busy." ”
The middle-aged man named Lao Li finished the last few bites, threw the empty box aside, poured another saliva, wiped his mouth, got up and turned off the TV, and then walked out of the hut.
All kinds of garbage were piled up, exuding an unpleasant pungent smell, but even so, he could still smell the tempting aroma left in the pungent stench.
Lao Li, who had just eaten a large portion of the boxed lunch, swallowed his saliva unconsciously at this time, and it was a man surnamed Liu who was working together who just called him, and when he saw Lao Li coming out, he stood stunned, and he shouted again: "Hurry up, why don't you bring a mask." ”
Lao Li came back to his senses, smiled honestly, and didn't answer, so he got to work.
Few people can accept this kind of life, but as someone who has already died once, it is nothing.
Regarding the murder that happened this morning, it didn't take long for the news report, and it didn't take a few minutes to change to the next one, and Ye Lin, who was still a little pale, looked down at the information in his hand.
Just photos can give people a bloody and terrifying feeling, tearing, tearing, gnawing, wanton splattering blood, and lifeless bodies, showing everything that happened in life.
I'm afraid this is not something that ordinary police officers can deal with, but the strange thing is that the crime site is also within the scope of the office's monitoring, why was there no notification and alarm when this insect committed the crime? Could it be that this insect just killed her but didn't eat?
It's a very unreasonable phenomenon, but such a scene, only bloodthirsty and man-eating insects do it, before and after eating, I don't know how to avoid the monitoring equipment, maybe it's a newly transformed insect, and those who are recuperating here are going to have a problem, so let's release it.
On the other side, Chu Xu, who had just joined the firm, only came into contact with the introduction of the firm, and he also realized that the organization he joined was hiding in the dark to deal with what kind of enemies and how many things he had done.
The cannibal monster is transformed from a human after death, with a monster body that has speed and strength beyond ordinary people, and can turn back into a human body at any time and hide back in the dark, such a terrifying monster, no wonder they want to block the news.
If this is leaked out, and the world knows about the existence of the blind, then how much panic it will cause, no one knows if there will be such a man-eating monster around him, or even friends and relatives.
The most dangerous thing is not the extraordinary strength that Kou possesses, nor the need to eat people, but that it can fully blend into the crowd!
Fortunately, we humans still have organizations like the firm, and there are magical internal skills and high-tech.
The people who were recruited by the Maple Leaf Group have always had a good talent in martial arts, and Chu Xu has a talent that is not much different from Ye Lin, you must know that Ye Lin is the most outstanding genius in the history of the Ye family, and the half-grown boy already has the strength to catch up with the previous generation.
Chu Xu quickly mastered this most basic internal strength mental method, and it didn't take long to feel the subtle heat flow in his body, according to the mental method, this was considered to have entered the door.
The strength after entering is even worse than the lowest level of the newly transformed, because no matter what type of eye, even if it is the lowest seventh rank, it also has a much stronger defense ability than humans, and in layman's terms, a stronger body brings them extraordinary speed, strength and defense, and the internal strength can only strengthen the body a little.
So the most headache for the firm is those heavy armor eyes, although the strength and speed are slightly inferior, but the kind of copper wall general defense, make them extremely difficult, the firm has tried a few laser weapons, more powerful than thermal weapons but of little use for high-level heavy armor, but supplemented by internal strength of cold weapons can cause damage to it.
Because of these, the Maple Leaf Group, which is the main combat force of the firm, fights with cold weapons, and basically never uses hot weapons.
......
Chen Xi woke up hungry again this time, in fact, he had already felt hungry for a long time, but after knowing what he wanted to eat, he became very resistant to eating.
Although Su Xiaoxiao kept saying that what he was fed was not made of human flesh and blood, Chen Xi, who had tried ordinary food, still didn't believe it, after all, the difference between the two was indeed too big.
Outside, Su Xiaoxiao was calling him out, she didn't know what she was busy outside, she only heard the clanging sound. Chen Xi walked out of the room, but what Su Xiaoxiao did made him very puzzled.
Because she was actually busy in the kitchen, and she looked like she was cooking with ordinary ingredients, hearing Chen Xi's footsteps, Su Xiaoxiao turned around and smiled at him, and continued to cook.
Chen Xi entered the kitchen, Su Xiaoxiao's cooking was indeed an ordinary meal, it looked very tempting, if he was still a human, he would like it very much, after all, in the orphanage, all he ate was a simple big pot of dishes.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't work for too long, just made a few home-cooked dishes at random, and beckoned Chen Xi to prepare for dinner, and the meal was served on the table. Chen Xi didn't move his chopsticks, just looked at Su Xiaoxiao with an inquiring look.
She said with a relaxed expression: "Although these ordinary foods are useless, and we can't taste them, we must have the feeling of eating when we eat, and as for essentia, it's not too late to ingest it later." ”
After hesitating for a moment, Chen Xi grabbed his chopsticks, and when he was about to get started, the murder case in Jiangyuan Community was reported on TV, Su Xiaoxiao listened attentively and said, "Jiangyuan Community is not very far away from us, don't you have any induction?"
Chen Xi shook his head, Su Xiaoxiao didn't ask again, and said to himself: "Look at this, it looks like it's made of a dare, let's find it after eating." ”
Chen Xi nodded silently.
......
"Black, red, white, gray, which one do you like? purple, blue, green, yellow, which color do you think is the most beautiful?"
The gentle male voice asked, but she burst into tears, her sealed mouth could only make a helpless whining, and the rope tied up made her unable to break free.
Tears blurred her eyes, and she looked at the man with pleading eyes, and in her sight the man hummed softly and walked briskly towards her.
"I think the most beautiful colors are red, white and black, but they are always so incongruous together, I tried many times, many different things, but none of them satisfied me, so. ”
"This time you have to satisfy me, it must be a perfect work. ”
The man said in a steady tone, the steaming white mist obscuring his vision, and the ugly monster revealed its hideous nature.
It was a disgusting-looking slur, the skin was covered with strange mucus, slippery and disgusting, the arms had turned into tentacles, and there were a few more short tentacles on the side waist that were constantly writhing. All that remains of the face is the round eyeballs and the mouth that occupies half of the face.
"What, what is this?" the male voice, which was still in the stage of voice change, suddenly sounded, "Is it an octopus? ”
The man jerked and looked back.
A teenager in a strange uniform clasped his hands to his chest with a somewhat disdainful expression.
Saliva drooped from the huge mouth, and the strange voice snorted: "Obstructive guy, how did you get in?" without waiting for Ye Lin to reply. The dull voice sounded again, "It's okay, I'll make you into food." ”
"Food?" Ye Lin smiled, "I really don't know how many catties and taels I have." ”
The blade of the sword behind him was unsheathed, and the cold light flashed slightly, this one seemed to be stunned for a moment, in modern society, it has never seen anyone use this kind of cold weapon that only appears on TV, in fact, this is also very unlucky, with the strength it has just transformed, it does not need to be dealt with by Ye Lin, who is a member of the Maple Leaf Group.
It's just that Ye Lin has just recovered from his injury, and the elders in the family don't worry about letting him go to the task alone, if he is with others, he must not be able to fight to the fullest, so he can only find this kind of weak bully.
The young man subconsciously dodged the spilled mucus, and with a flip of his right hand, the sword light flashed, and he cut off a tentacle effortlessly.
Black-brown blood spurted out of the fracture, Ye Lin quickly avoided it, and when the slug was still trembling and distracted by the sudden pain, the bright sword stabbed through the big mouth, passed through the head, and the tip of the sword emerged from the back of the head.
This time, it directly cut off the vitality of the eyes, and it didn't take long for the gagging body to turn into a puddle of black slime.
Hey, it's still boring, this kind of thing, it's too weak, but unfortunately, those insects with a little stronger strength are very good at dodging, and they can't find it.
Ye Lin put away the sword and returned it to the sheath, and when he looked down, the woman who was bound in her body didn't know when she fainted.
It's still quite troublesome to act alone, and you have to wait for the aftermath personnel to come over, Ye Lin stretched his waist, contacted the personnel of the nearby office, and then sat aside, staring blankly at his sword, wandering out of the world.
At a certain moment, he suddenly tensed his body, and in an instant, he drew his sword and retracted it, and his movements were done in one go.
