Section 26 Changes
That night, when the monster rushed over, there were probably only three people who saw her up close...... No, it's just two people. One is Li Ze, and the other is Lao Ma (there is also a colleague who was hit by a monster at the beginning, so he doesn't know anything about monsters). Now Lao Ma is unconscious, and now Li Ze is the only one who knows about this matter.
Li Ze knew very well that no one would believe this kind of thing when he said it -- the performance of the previous squadron leader was the best example. People will only think of this as the after-effect of a concussion. In fact, it is normal for a concussion to have a short-term memory gap, and even medical books clearly record such phenomena.
In fact, if he hadn't seen the other party's glowing red eyes with his own eyes, Li Ze himself wouldn't believe that it was a monster. Because, at least on the surface, it looks no different from a human, and even uses a pistol to fight.
In fact, Li Ze can do nothing, anyway, he now has sick leave because of a concussion. Just leave everything to the leaders. But deep down in his heart, there was a strong sense of humiliation and unwillingness.
It was the power of the subconscious deep inside him, the pride of his instincts. This pride did not allow him to choose to flee or retreat after such a humiliating defeat. It is not allowed that after a comrade-in-arms is injured to protect himself, he can't do anything.
Some people feel sorry for themselves after failure and give up on this path. Some people are always unwilling after failure, and they try to get revenge and want to make a comeback. And Li Ze is the latter.
That night, if he had taken the right action and replaced the bullets in time instead of standing there stupidly holding on to the trigger, he should have been able to hit the monster, or at least provide cover for the old horse so that he could avoid it. After all, the firepower of a shot by one person and two people is completely different. Or even further...... If he can restrain his inner fear and take measures calmly, then perhaps victory will be on his side.
He had to do something, but the only clue he had now was the mysterious whistleblower. Li Ze was sure that the mysterious whistleblower must know something about the monster.
Why...... What kind of monsters are there on Earth? Is it really an experiment by some mad scientist? And why do the eyes glow?
The white Camry sedan stopped on the side of the road, and Li Ze got out of the car and came to the side of the shop.
The business of IP phones is definitely not very good, because Li Ze has been observing the roadside for so long, and he has not seen anyone coming to call. Of course, this is normal, in fact, unless there is another picture, or it is really a very accidental situation such as the phone is out of battery or the phone is not brought, no one will come here to make IP calls. From this point of view, maybe the proprietress can remember who made the call.
"Hostess, this call ......"
"One dollar at a time. The woman said bluntly, and pointed a finger at the sign on the glass counter. But she never took her eyes off her phone. I don't know what game fascinates him so much.
"There was a guy who just came here a while ago to call...... Does the lady remember who he is?"
"I don't know, the old lady is very busy. The woman didn't bother to pay attention to Li Ze.
Li Ze actually wanted to ask as a police officer, but it seemed that there would be a possibility of startling the snake, so he endured it.
According to the results of the investigation conducted by the technical department, both calls came from here...... Well, there should be a third time, and with enough patience, he will wait.
β¦β¦
γβ¦β¦ Very repulsive...... Must be ...... Human flesh and blood...... But you can't let the humans on this plane ...... Become aware of...... Judgment...... Must hide your identity ......]
It's half past nine in the evening, and this time point is a dividing line for the nightlife of W City. Most shops close before this point, and only bars, dance halls, karaoke, and late-night snacks will remain open.
A trolley slowly walks through the street.
Although W City is a modern city, supermarkets and online shopping have long become the mainstream of public shopping. But this kind of stall on a trolley still exists, and it still exists well. The stall is divided into two parts, mainly some miscellaneous cheap cotton sweaters and shorts, but there are also some sunglasses, nail clippers, scissors, nutcrackers and other miscellaneous goods that I don't know where they are made.
The stall owner, an old man in his sixties, was pushing a cart on his way home. At this time, the streets were silent, and not a single passerby was seen for a long time. However, although there is no one, the neat and bright light of the street lights along the way gives people a sense of psychological security.
The old man pulled the cart, humming a local folk tune in his mouth, and suddenly, he felt that the car seemed to be hanging in the way, because all of a sudden, the originally light and flexible car could not be pulled at all.
He didn't pay much attention to it at first, but when he turned his head, he saw a figure behind the car...... And it looks like a woman dressed in black?
One of the woman's hands was pressed against the back of the cart.
The initial surprise was quickly replaced by the instinct of a businessman. The old man stopped the car because he thought the customer was probably looking for something.
However, when he wanted to get closer and ask, he suddenly saw the other party's hand...... With a pistol?!
This is...... Is this a robbery?
Although logic can't explain why a man with a pistol would come to rob a small vendor like him who can't squeeze much oil, it's not logic that makes the decision in the brain at this time, but instinct. A strong sense of crisis suddenly came to his heart, and just when he was at a loss, the other party had already raised his pistol.
"Ahhhh......h Instinctively, he covered his hand in front of his face, as if he could block the bullet. "Don't kill me, don't kill me! I don't have any money!"
After a few seconds, when he came back to his senses, he realized that nothing had happened.
He looked closely at the female robbers with guns. There was silence all around, except for the still-cold lights that seemed to mock his nervousness.
"What the hell am I?" he got up and looked around again, but there was no one around. As mentioned earlier, although it was already dark at this time, with the neat and bright street lamps on this side, it was not a problem for people to see things within 100 meters.
"What the hell......" he muttered softly, and came to the stall. But in an instant, he sensed that something was wrong.
The stack of sunglasses in the corner of the stall was one missing.
Originally, there were a dozen pairs of sunglasses hereβhe remembered well, twelve, but now, there were only eleven left.
X's, it turns out that it's not a robber, it's a thief!
The fury of the theft made him forget the horror just now, and he just opened his mouth to let out a few classic national curses, but he saw a stack of small red papers on the side of the stack of glasses.
A small piece of paper that is incomparably familiar to all Chinese, with several famous Chinese characters printed on it.
It is impossible for the renminbi to fall from the sky, so there is only one explanation for it - it was left by the woman just now, and the hidden meaning of leaving so much money is self-evident: collect the money, and then do nothing and see nothing.
Faced with such a situation, normal people know what to do. The old man collects the money. He looked nervously back and forth, and after making sure that there was no one around, he pulled up his car and left the scene as fast as he could.
One o'clock in the morning is the end of the day for the nightlife of W City. Most karaoke establishments close during this time β maybe not at all, but the vast majority of customers leave during this time.
This is also the time when there is a high incidence of cases - half of which are victims of such guests, and the perpetrators of the other half of the cases are such guests.
At the corner of a side street, several young men were dragging a young woman. The men smelled of alcohol, but it was unclear whether they were pretending to be crazy or drunk.
"Don't do it! I'm going home!" the woman struggled.
ββ¦β¦ Why, it's not okay to play with a few brothers...... If it doesn't work, it has to work!"
Originally, it was just tugging, but one of the young men quickly escalated the situation by taking the woman's hand and forcibly pulling her into a dark alley.
The environment has a great influence on people, and if there were some scruples about the actions of a few men just now, now this scruples have disappeared. Several people violently pressed the woman against the wall and made her unable to move!"
"You have sinned, and I will accuse you...... Ah......h
"Sue! Okay, I'll wait for you to sue! My uncle is the judge! Look at your sue to heaven, and someone will pay attention to it...... Ah......h
The woman screamed in pain as a man reached into her chest, pinched and began to squeeze. But the man made a sound of surprise as someone grabbed him by the shoulder from behind.
I don't know when, a woman came up behind them. It was she who intervened to stop it just now.
"You ......" The appearance of the third person immediately made the man stunned. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the woman broke free and ran quickly towards the alley.
Several men tried to chase after them, but the woman who suddenly appeared out of nowhere stood in front of them.
"Oh, you want to get ahead...... Okay, then I'll change you to accompany my brother a few times......" The man in the lead, the one who claimed to be the judge's nephew, looked up and down at the woman who suddenly came out - the other party was wearing a black dress that he had never seen before, and he had sunglasses on his face, but he could see that he was very well-proportioned and a little material. Seeing that the original prey had fled, he immediately focused his attention on this one and reached out to pull it.
The woman didn't move, and he immediately grabbed the other man's arm. I thought it was a white and tender arm, but I didn't expect to find it very slippery when I grabbed it in my hand. No, not slippery, he grabbed something from the woman with such a grab.
Only then did a few people realize...... With such a grasp, he actually grabbed a large piece of the woman's arm, as if it was not a human body, but plasticine. Although several people were drunk, they were all stunned this time.
