Chapter 128: Prayer
Fingers pressed the button outside the vending machine, picked up the citizen card and swept the payment instrument on the side, a slight vibration, and the bottom sounded the rolling sound of "Gollum~".
Gu Yinxing bent down to pick up three bottles of drinks from the outlet, turned around and walked past two girls in translucent plastic clothes, and walked towards the fence on the other side of the street, where Su Zi and Zhu Jue were waiting by the advertising light sign over there.
"What do the Ranger guys say?"
Took a box of juice and inserted the straw sealed on the surface of the box into the small opening at the top, and handed it to the wind chimes squatting on his shoulders like a squirrel, and Zhu Jue himself opened the can of cold carbonated water with gray skulls painted horizontally and vertically.
Puff~
A few seconds later, an empty shell was slapped into a garbage bin a few meters away by a wind chime, causing many people to stop and watch.
"Because of what we're doing in Community 40, coupled with the fact that the Oroboros terrorist activities threaten the lower classes, the Rangers are clearly willing to help, so I've provided them with some information about the Ouroboros, but they don't have a clear goal...... There is no guarantee that useful information will be found in a short period of time. ”
Gu Yinxing pulled down her hood and covered the small half of her cheeks with her hair.
"Aren't we here to find a target, maybe there will be new clues soon. ”
Zhu Jue looked at the brightly lit Gravitational Tavern not far away, this time was just the beginning of the nightlife, and the street was full of people and noisy.
"Where are the people who attacked me?"
Thinking of what happened in the No. 17 community at that time, Gu Yinxing recalled the figures of those people as much as possible.
"Well, right here. ”
Pouting and snuggling the house behind him, Zhu Jue turned his back to it, his eyes drifting on the few girls walking in front of him,
"There were six people in there, and I had to wait for someone to come out and ask if it was them...... Later, you'll be in charge of searching the electronic devices in the house, and I'll take care of the rest. ”
"Are we really waiting at their door?"
Looking at the main entrance of the house less than 3 meters away from them, Gu Yinxing tried this form of stalking for the first time.
Drinking drinks and chatting, still at each other's doorstep?
"You don't understand, this is called surprise, Suzi, is it hacked?"
I took two steps to the left and came to Suko, who was leaning against the fence with his hands in his pockets.
"After the phone, computer, and audio-visual stick are locked, do I need to download the database?"
Suzi's voice was clear when she answered, and the light on the overhead sign reflected on her side face with a cold glow, which made Zhu Jue a little strange for a while.
This is the state she would only have when she was highly functioning in an electronic brain.
"Of course, it's always going to be done...... It's coming!"
Sensing that someone in the house was approaching the door, Zhu Jue walked to the door first, and retreated sideways to the door.
Crunch~
The man with the colored cloth on his head stepped out with a calm face, muttering some slang that Zhu Jue couldn't understand.
Seeing Zhu Jue, who was leaning his neck and drinking a drink by the door, he was stunned for a moment, then didn't say anything, and walked to the street by himself.
This is the No. 28 community, and there are many drunkards, and people like this kind of drinking and casually looking for a place to lean or lie down can be seen everywhere.
"Hey, friend. ”
Zhu Jue took the initiative to step forward and grab the other party's shoulders and asked in a low voice,
"Is the siren of Community Patrol 17 good?"
When a normal person heard this question, he must have looked back with a strange face, but the man Zhu Jue was holding was touching his waist with his right hand at the same time as he said "Community 17".
It's a pity that Zhu Jue's movements are too fast for him.
Before his fingers touched the gun, his wrist had already been turned into a strange angle, and he wanted to open his mouth to call, but the palm that was originally on his shoulder was choked in advance, and in the end he could only make some sporadic whimpering.
"It's them, do it!"
The sand and gravel sealed his mouth, dragged him into the house with the back of his neck in one hand, and waited for Su Zi and Gu Yinxing to follow, and the door of the house slammed shut again.
Crossing the corridor at the entrance, Zhu Jue could sense that the other five people were in the living room.
I thought that the people in the house would quickly notice someone intruding and let the wind chimes rush in advance, preparing to settle the battle as quickly as possible.
Anyone who wanted to walk to the door of the living room did not hear any strange sound, but the wind chimes paced out from inside and called.
"What's going on......"
Gu Yinxing stood at the door, looking at the scene in the living room, and put down the pistol with a stunned expression.
An old-fashioned chandelier hangs in the middle of a dirty, cracked ceiling, casting a dim brownish-yellow light.
In the center of the aperture is a wooden table with a strange metal incense niche on the top, and a grayish-black mist rises from the tiny holes in the top.
There were six chairs around the wooden table, the one against the living room door was empty, and the other five were seated people, their postures surprisingly consistent, leaning forward, their chests pressed against the edge of the table, their arms on the table, their elbows against each other, their forearms about 100 degrees diagonally upwards from the tabletop, their fingers crossed, and their heads in the center of their arms.
They seemed to be praying, but this posture was extremely awkward to outsiders, and they did not react to the arrival of the three Zhu Jue.
"Don't go in yet, they're in this state...... There may be something wrong with the fog wafting from the metal box in the middle. ”
Stopping Gu Yinxing, who was about to go inside, and asked her to step back, Zhu Jue glanced at the plastic bags and various takeaway boxes piled up behind the chairs of the five people.
Judging by the amount of this pile, it is very likely that these people in front of him have not left this room in the past few days, and the guy he is carrying now is probably going out to buy food and water for them.
Throw the man in his hand in the hallway, raise his foot and step on his chest, untying the sand.
"The great thing is coming, you mortals, will finally die in despair in this vain earthly world, and I will ...... the kingdom of God."
With bloodshot eyes open, the man's face flushed sickly, and his hands tried to grab Zhu Jue's calves.
Click~
"It's a cultist again, so I don't think I need to ask. ”
Retracted his feet and no longer looked at the corpse on the ground, for this kind of guy, Zhu Jue didn't even have the slightest interest in interrogation.
It's just a waste of time.
"It's like they're in deep hypnosis...... I have seen similar phenomena in Rong Xia City, most of them come from some small cults, in order to achieve the desired effect as soon as possible, they rely on special drugs to confuse the minds of believers, so that they have hallucinations, which are used to enhance thought control, Zhu Jue is right, there is a problem with the metal incense niche on the table. ”
Suzi walked into the living room while speaking, her nose has been specially modified, she can completely stop breathing if necessary, and rely on other devices on her body to supply oxygen to the biological brain, so she is not afraid of this fog.
"Your body has been modified by Ouroboros tissue, it's best not to come in, go to the entrance to help us watch the wind, so as not to be affected. ”
Gu Yinxing was obviously not suitable to stay here, Zhu Jue instructed, and the former also knew the severity, so he immediately turned around and left.
"Help me restrain these people, I'm going to check their mental state, you take out their electronics, and the incense niche on the table...... You can seal it up, and then analyze the composition at the epidemic prevention center, and you may be able to find something. ”
Suzi, who had dealt with similar situations before, quickly gave a plan, and Zhu Jue had no intention of refuting it, he unconditionally trusted Suzi's ability to deal with it in this regard.
Raising his hand and waving it down, several sand ropes formed by gravel wrapped around the ankles and wrists of the men.
