Chapter 196: Don't Believe Me
Chapter 196 [Don't Believe Me]
"The person chasing the resentful spirit in the subway station is Dr. Mu? Why is this happening?" called the spare tire, "He...... No...... And he's a clue to the system.
Maybe it was because he touched the body of the deceased, the first to do so, who appeared at the scene of the murder and was hated by the spirits?
It doesn't make sense. β
The spare tire yelled.
"I have a guess. Tire said unhurriedly as he reached out and pressed his brother's shoulder: "The crux of the matter is not just why that resentful spirit in the subway station attacked Dr. Mu. But...... Why did that Black Annie's resentful spirit that appeared in the apartment also attack Dr. Mu?"
Tire's expression was solemn: "If you want to come here like that...... Perhaps our previous guess was wrong. In the apartment, the resentful spirit attacked in the living room and toilet at the same time, in fact, to distract everyone, and her target was actually Dr. Mu?
But why did Black Anne attack Dr. Mu? She was killed in another place, and it stands to reason that she has nothing to do with Dr. Mu. β
Chen Xiaolian frowned: "Maybe it's just a guess on our part, maybe we guessed wrong......"
"Maybe he's Jack the Ripper!"
It is the dagger that speaks!
And when this sentence was spoken, everyone fell silent.
"Forgotten? We came to the conclusion that Jack the Ripper was a man familiar with medicine and surgery! This guy was a doctor in the first place! Moreover, he was the first person to show up at the scene of the first murder in the subway station! He was next to the corpse when we arrived! Maybe he killed the man!"
"No way. Chen Xiaolian shook his head: "Because when Hei Annie died, Dr. Mu was not present, he was in the apartment!"
"That's right. We can all testify that Dr. Mu never left the apartment. "The tires too.
"Maybe he can do magic, maybe he can do sorcery, maybe he can doppelganger, maybe he'll go out of his body!" the dagger shouted, "Isn't it obvious enough? It's just a copy of the trick!"
As he spoke, the dagger suddenly drew a short knife. With a murderous face, he walked towards Dr. Mu.
Chen Xiaolian immediately stopped in front of him, with a calm face: "What are you doing!"
"Kill him!" the dagger raised his eyebrows: "Maybe kill him, and the mission will be done!
"Are you sure?" Chen Xiaolian sneered.
"......" dagger gritted his teeth: "Get out of the way!"
"Idiot. Tire said coldly on the side: "Forget the explanation of the system? Doctor Mu is a clue person! His survival must be protected! If he dies, it is equivalent to the failure of the mission!"
β...... Then don't kill him, torture him first!Hmph!" The dagger gritted his teeth and said: "Destroy his hands and feet! Just don't let him die! Look at what effect he will have on the future without his hands and feet!"
"If you touch him, I'll take away your hands and feet first. Chen Xiaolian pushed the dagger hard, pushing him back a few steps.
"How fucking dare you touch me!" the dagger's face turned murderously and he stepped forward with a thrust. The dagger drilled into Chen Xiaolian's throat!
Bite!
Chen Xiaolian had already quickly summoned a dreadnought battle axe in his hand, the axe blade blocked the dagger, and then it was a vertical slash!
The dagger quickly retreated, and the flying body flashed a few steps, and was about to twist and recoil......
"Enough!
The figure of the phoenix appeared behind the dagger, reached out and pressed his shoulder, his fingers bent, grabbed the dagger and took a few steps back: "Dagger." You're too impulsive!"
"I'm ......" Dagger squinted at the phoenix: "Commander, why do you always help outsiders talk?"
The phoenix narrowed his eyes and looked at the dagger. said lightly: "Are you accusing me, the head of the regiment, of doing things unfairly?"
β...... I didn't say that!" The dagger was straight to his neck, but his face turned red: "Isn't my speculation reasonable? It's just an ordinary person, and the system doesn't let him be killed, so he will be left alive." Abolish him, not die! As for our suspicions, just abolish him. At least he wouldn't be a threat! Am I wrong?"
Phoenix frowned, looked at the dagger, and then at Chen Xiaolian.
Chen Xiaolian said lightly: "He is an ordinary person to you, but I know him. He's helped my friend, so I'm not going to let you touch him!"
One way or another. Chen Xiaolian believes that the doctor he knows is a good person, and he has dealt with him - his philosophy does not allow him to look at such a good person, and he will be hurt just because he guesses.
Or in other words, he couldn't do it like a dagger yet...... As an Awakened One, you can treat other ordinary people as lambs and can be slaughtered at will!
This kind of mentality is unacceptable to Chen Xiaolian at present.
The phoenix lowered her eyes, didn't look at Chen Xiaolian's eyes, and took a deep breath: "Then let's make a compromise." β
"How?"
Dr. Muk...... You can not hurt him, but he must be closely guarded. Phoenix said in a deep voice: "Although the dagger is a little impulsive, but his speculation, I think there is some truth."
Head Chen Xiaolian, maybe this Dr. Mu is your friend.
But you have to understand...... He is not our friend.
It's a task that everyone does together, and if you go on a business trip, you might be willing to bear the consequences. But we are not obligated to accompany you to bear the consequences. β
"I understand. Chen Xiaolian exhaled and groaned slightly: "Tire spare tire, find a way to wake up Dr. Mu...... Then, for the rest of the day, the two of you will be in charge of protecting him!
The tires are the most delicate, and I immediately understood what Chen Xiaolian meant.
There are two layers of personal protection: first, monitor Dr. Mu for any abnormalities. Second, it is natural to prevent someone from wanting to hurt him.
"Okay, leave it to us. β
Seeing that Chen Xiaolian had already said this, the phoenix smiled: "That's good...... Let's do it first. β
The dagger took a step back, he stood at the door, glared at Chen Xiaolian coldly, and then suddenly raised his hand and made a throat-slitting motion on his neck with a finger.
Chen Xiaolian glared back fearlessly. Dagger turned, walked out the door of the lounge and went out.
"Can you talk about it alone? Phoenix looked at Chen Xiaolian.
β...... OK. β
......
On the roof of the warehouse, Chen Xiaolian and Phoenix found a clean place to sit.
Phoenix actually took out a bottle of wine from the storage belt, shook it, and handed it to Chen Xiaolian: "Take a sip?"
Chen Xiaolian glanced at it, not depressed. He took a big sip of the bottle.
"Aren't you afraid that I will poison or do anything?" Phoenix smiled and looked at Chen Xiaolian.
"Captain Phoenix, I have a lot of respect for you. Chen Xiaolian looked at her: "Past experiences have proved the sincerity of your cooperation, so I believe in you." β
Speaking of this, Chen Xiaolian smiled deliberately and pointed to the position under the roof: "It's just that some of your team members don't seem to be very friendly to us." β
Phoenix sighed softly, she took the wine bottle back from Chen Xiaolian's hand and gently wiped the mouth of the bottle. Then he actually poured a little wine into the bottle.
The wine entered his throat, Phoenix took a breath, and after swallowing it, he frowned and smiled bitterly: "I really don't understand, why do you men like to drink, such a spicy thing." β
"It's not just men who like to drink. Chen Xiaolian glanced at her: "Didn't you say that you are a good girl and don't drink?"
"Good girls sometimes have times when they want to drink. The phoenix shrugged.
She looked into the distance...... It was already morning, and the sun had come out and hung in the sky.
"It's rare to see such beautiful weather in London. The phoenix stared at the sky in the distance. Suddenly, he said, "The dagger is actually ...... Not against you. β
"Huh?"
"He's targeting me. Phoenix said lightly: "In the previous dungeon, my team experienced some things. β
Chen Xiaolian didn't say anything...... He felt as if he was not fit to inquire about the internal affairs of others.
But the phoenix didn't seem to stop. Still looking at the sky in the distance, she spoke in a calm and slow tone:
"In a previous dungeon, our team lost three of our companions. Two of them were close to Dagger, one was his brother and the other was his...... Woman. Phoenix smiled bitterly: "And the last one to die is our regiment leader...... Well. The former head of the regiment, to be precise. β
Chen Xiaolian was stunned.
"So, I, the head of the regiment, am the new one. Phoenix smiled slightly: "I guess, this should be similar to your situation." It won't be long since you took over the team after Fallfall's death. β
Chen Xiaolian didn't speak.
"Maybe it's because my friend and woman died, and the dagger blames me...... Because of that copy. He thinks it was some of my command and strategy mistakes that caused the loss of people...... Although I don't think so myself. But...... I can't argue with it. Human emotions are often not measured by reason. Phoenix said lightly: "Perhaps, another reason is that after the old head died, he was not convinced that I would become the new head of the group." Of course, his qualifications are also very old. Maybe there's something in that. β
Chen Xiaolian still didn't speak.
Phoenix suddenly asked, "Has anyone died in your team...... I mean, after you became the leader of the regiment?"
"......" Chen Xiaolian hesitated.
Isn't Nicole counted? She's only a temporary co-op, but ...... Sort of.
"Dead. Chen Xiaolian said slowly: "In the previous dungeon, we lost an outstanding team member, it can be said that she used her life to save all of us in the end and kill the strong enemy. β
"Your team members...... Didn't you question your leadership skills because of this?" Phoenix looked at Chen Xiaolian, "You're really lucky. We are all young and new leaders...... Your teammates didn't suspect you? You're in a much better position than I am. β
"Everybody has their own situation. Chen Xiaolian said vaguely.
"Our old head of the regiment has always taken good care of me before. Phoenix said lightly: "Therefore, the other members of the team may have always had some opinions about me, but some people choose to come out, such as daggers." Some people choose not to come out......
The old leader is an elder I know, and a few years ago, I got involved with him in a copy and became an Awakened One. I kept calling him uncle, but he was actually one of my division commanders...... I studied fine arts, and he was a very famous painter.
When I worshipped him as a teacher. Only fifteen years old. Later, he studied painting with him.
After becoming an Awakened One, he took good care of me, and this kind of care, in the eyes of the other team members, may be a kind of injustice. β
"I think that's fair...... People are close and distant ......" Chen Xiaolian tried to comfort the other party a few words.
β...... Hahahahahaha!!" Phoenix burst out laughing, and she smiled as brightly as the sun. It's just that in his eyes, there seems to be a strange light.
"What are you laughing at?, are you kidding me?" Chen Xiaolian frowned.
"You're naΓ―ve. Phoenix suddenly picked up the bottle and took another big sip, probably because she drank so violently that she choked and coughed so hard that her delicate face turned crimson.
Suddenly, the phoenix threw the bottle off the roof with all its might, slamming it on the ground and shattering.
"Chen Xiaolian, you are too naΓ―ve. You're so kind that you don't look like a person in a survival game!"
Phoenix's eyes suddenly became cold!
"I'll sue you, my old master, my teacher...... The reason why he looks at me differently is because he has been beating my mind all the time!
I was fifteen years old at the time, and he was older than my father!
There were many times when he tried to take advantage of me! At first, I could only resist and run away...... And I'm scared, he's strong. I knew that if I resisted by force, I would not be his opponent at all. It will only provoke him and drive him crazy.
I can only pretend to be very simple, pretend that I am too young to understand his hints...... I use this way to circumvent, to dodge, to resist. Protect yourself this way!
Luckily, he seemed to enjoy the fun of teasing his prey, too, so I was able to protect myself for a long time and didn't let him get his way.
You know? I even hide a knife under my pillow every night when I go to bed!
Although he seems to take care of me on the surface, in fact, he has been suppressing me. Don't give me a chance to improve my strength...... He took care of me and just treated me like a private confinement, a pet!
Oh no, in fact, he's been suppressing everyone else in the team!
I could only quietly, exhaust all the methods, and try my best to secretly strengthen my strength under his nose.
I've always lived like a frightened mouse!!In the face of a cat that has always wanted to eat him, I can only carefully protect myself, and quietly accumulate and improve my strength little by little......
Later, as he gradually lost his patience, he became more and more annoyed with my resistance and rejection.
Do you know how he ended up?"
Chen Xiaolian was stunned.
Phoenix took a deep breath, her eyes getting colder and colder!
"He finally ran out of patience. Just in one of the previous copies, during a break, after a hint that I rejected, he finally got angry and he tried to ...... Rake me!"
"......" Chen Xiaolian was stunned and looked at the phoenix.
The phoenix suddenly conjured a dagger from the palm of his hand, a dagger that was almost translucent.
"I pretended to be scared, pretended not to resist, and paralyzed his guard...... Then, while he was undressing himself, I stabbed him in the neck with this dagger and slit his throat!!"
When Phoenix said this, she sneered, "That guy, until he died, he couldn't get me! I made a false impression that everyone thought he was dead at the hands of the monster in the copy.
By the end of that dungeon, I was the strongest on the team!
You know what? When I got home after the dungeon, the first thing I did was shut myself in the shower and I bathed myself a dozen times!
Chen Xiaolian couldn't say a word!
The phoenix slammed the dagger between the two!
"You...... What are you doing with me?" Chen Xiaolian stared at the girl's eyes.
"It's to tell you, don't be so naΓ―ve and kind. Phoenix sneered, "Don't trust anyone too much - if you want to live long in this game." β
......
[Let's put it this way, I know that when this chapter is issued, there may be some old readers who don't like it.]
Because this may have ruined the good image of the character of Phoenix in the hearts of some old readers.
I can only say that this image may not be in line with the phoenix in "The Heavenly King".
Because, the phoenix here is the phoenix of "The Gate of the Apocalypse".
Well, that's it. γ
