Chapter 279: The Man Behind the Scenes

Previous Chapter

The bizarre events that have been happening on this day and even during this period of time have almost made Lechen schizophrenic, and he feels more and more as if he is being targeted by something.

After dinner, Lechen returned to his room, turned on his computer and began to search for the special events that had happened in Crescent City recently.

Entering the webpage, Lechen's eyes were quickly attracted by a hot search forum post at the top, and the number of shares and replies has exceeded more than five million.

The title was "Let's take a look at some of the recent anecdotes in Yanyue City".

As soon as Lechen moved his mouse, he clicked in and found that there were still people in the comment area who were discussing it enthusiastically.

The most discussed topic is the bizarre death of a person on the side of the road on Diyue Street this morning.

According to the description of the original post, from the scene at that time, the victim's death was extremely miserable, there was almost no good meat on the whole body, and the whole person was almost minced meat, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.

At that time, the crowd of onlookers did not have time to leave, and they were all escorted away by a strange armored car or two that arrived and a large number of black-clothed soldiers rushed down from above.

Covered between the text, there are several relatively clear photos of the scene at that time, including strange corpses and black-clad soldiers who got out of armored vehicles.

Lechen observed the photos while browsing the comments of netizens.

Netizens who found that when discussing the bizarre death incident on the side of the road on Diyue Street, netizens in the comment area will always frequently mention another bizarre death incident.

First floor: 'Hurry up and hide the photos, I guess this post will be targeted by the administrator immediately, don't forget that those similar posts three days ago were just posted, and they were quickly cut in half.' ’

2nd floor: 'Discussing these things at night, not to mention that it is really exciting, I always feel that the incident three days ago is similar to what happened on the road of Diyue Street this morning. ’

3rd Floor: 'I think the murderer in the alley of East Street should be the same person as the killer on Diyue Street. ’

Fourth floor: 'I agree with the upstairs, the method is just the same, just as miserable and inhumane!'

Fifth floor: 'Weakly ask, is this really done by people?'

Sixth Floor: 'Nonsense, or it's a ghost?'

Seventh Floor: 'Brother on the fifth floor, don't take that bullshit 'Apocalypse' seriously. ’

Eighth floor: 'Yes, what the upstairs says, what gods and demons, if there are really any, why have I never seen them when I am so old?'

......

After browsing for a while, Lechen got a general understanding of the bizarre death incident that netizens talked about three days ago in the alley of East Street.

Three days ago, there was also a dead incident in the alley of East Street in the center of the city, and the victim died almost in the same way as the deceased on the side of the road on Diyue Street, but because it was forcibly covered up by a special department, not many people saw it with their own eyes.

After browsing the Internet for more than two hours in a row, Lechen looked at the time, it was already 22:45, and he should also go to that place to take a look.

In the dark, he vaguely felt that only by going to No. 144 Diyue Street written on the paper at twelve o'clock could he unravel the bizarre events that happened during this time on his body.

Turning off the computer, Lechen walked into the bathroom, came to the mirror, and looked at himself in the mirror, the slightly long and slightly messy black broken hair covered half of his eyes, Lechen gently lifted it, there was a thick layer of dark circles around the eyes in the mirror, and his originally handsome and handsome face looked very listless under the background of this pair of dark circles.

washed his face and rinsed his mouth, and Lechen didn't bother to comb the long black hair that looked messy on his head.

He was about to walk out of the room, but suddenly stopped, walked slowly to the head of the bed, and lowered down to take out a square, rectangular black box from the cabinet.

The box was gently opened, and there was also a small purple square box in the box, as well as a black pistol placed inside the recess of the box.

Le Chen hesitated slightly, but still opened the small purple box, and when the box opened, he saw a lilac diamond-shaped jade pendant with a hanging chain in it.

Le Chen picked it up lightly, only to see the diamond-shaped jade pendant, the whole body was crystal clear, shining with a strange luster, it seemed to be made of a special jade material, and it was also engraved with various strange and exquisite patterns, which looked quite mysterious.

Le Chen put down the jade pendant, and looked at the black pistol in the box, the black pistol was different from the other firearms that Le Chen had seen, the shape was quite weird, and the pistol body was also carved with an extremely strange skull, and the body of the pistol was much larger than an ordinary pistol, and the magazine of the gun was full of bullets.

These things were left to him by his real father, he was not surnamed Le, as for the original surname, he didn't know, at a very young age for some special reasons, he was fostered in Lejia.

He has always thought that he is a person from Lejia, Le Yan's own brother, but since he met that person, he has been told his true background, but only because he knows that he is not a person from Lejia.

After he found out, he was forced by the false brother-sister relationship between the two, and since then he has consciously or unintentionally begun to keep a distance from his sister Le Yan, and the relationship between the two is not as close as before.

Le Chen didn't know if Le Yan knew that he was not her own brother, and he didn't want to hurt her in the end, so he could only keep a suitable distance from her silently through indifference.

Putting the purple jade on his neck, and taking out the strangely shaped black pistol from the groove, pinning it to the belt around his waist, Lechen walked out of the room.

His instincts told him that these things might be of some use tonight.

Originally, Le Chen was going to go out directly to Diyue Street, but after thinking about it, he walked to Le Yan's door.

"Knock-knock-knock!"

With three slight pauses, the door opened a diagonal slit, revealing half of its small head.

"Brother?"

The girl's big eyes looked at Lechen in front of the door strangely, I don't know why my brother came to knock on the door so late.

"Let me in, I have something to say to you. ”

Lechen lightly pointed to the room and said calmly.

"Uh-huh!"

The girl was obviously stunned by Le Chen's words, but she still slowly opened the door, but a faint flush crept up on her pretty face unconsciously, after all, it was a bit of something to let a boy into her room in the middle of the night, although the other party was her brother.

Walking into the girl's room, Lechen couldn't help but smell a faint fragrance from the girl's room, and saw that there was an unclosed book next to the lamp on the desk in front of the girl's bed.

"Come here. ”

Le Chen sat on the edge of the bed casually, observed the situation in the room, but nothing abnormal happened, so he pointed to his side and called Le Yan not far away.

"Hmm. ”

The girl lowered her head, looked slightly at Lechen who was looking at her room by the bed, and actually blushed, nodded as thin as a mosquito, and then sat beside him very restrainedly.

"Le Yan. ”

"Hmm?"

Le Chen's voice suddenly came from his ears, which made Le Yan, who was constantly twisting his fingers and not knowing what he was thinking, his body trembled, and he quickly raised his head and sat down to look at Le Chen beside him.

"You... Why is your face so red?"

Lechen took a closer look and asked with confusion.

"I... Blushing?

The girl hurriedly covered her little face, and covered it up with a flustered and embarrassed smile.

"By the way, I want to ask you something important. ”

Lechen put his hands tightly on the girl's shoulders, and suddenly showed a solemn face, staring at her tightly.

"Huh? I ......"

Le Yan was obviously taken aback by Le Chen's sudden move.

"When am I going back to work this afternoon?"

"Huh, you came back in the first class in the afternoon. ”

When the girl heard Lechen ask, she hesitated a little but quickly answered truthfully.

"That's... When I got back to the classroom, did you notice anything strange about me?"

Lechen stared at the girl tightly, and then asked seriously.

Le Yan saw that it was rare for his brother to show such a serious appearance, so he carefully recalled what happened when he saw Le Chen in the afternoon.

"At that time, you seemed to walk in with your head down, and I wanted to call you when I passed by, but you didn't seem to hear at all, and walked back to your seat slowly. ”

Le Yan looked at Le Chen, and recalled carefully bit by bit.

At that time, Le Yan was secretly sulking because Le Chen ignored her, and now seeing Le Chen like this, there may be a reason at that time.

"So, did you see the expression on my face at that time?"

Lechen then asked.

"I remember...... Huh?"

"Although you had your head down at the time, I saw your face when I passed by my seat, so it stands to reason that I shouldn't have forgotten it so quickly?"

"But I'm ...... I don't seem to remember it at all, and I don't have the slightest impression. ”

When the girl thought of this, her face was suddenly full of consternation, and she felt that something seemed to be wrong.

"Brother......

"At that time, after I returned to my seat, that Ye Xi... Have you spoken to me?"

Just felt that things were a little weird, and wanted to ask Le Yan, who had doubts in his heart, but was suddenly asked again by Le Chen.

"You said that Ye Xi, you didn't say a word after you returned to your seat, she seems... I haven't spoken to you for an afternoon since you returned to your seat. ”

"Also, she doesn't seem to have looked at you all afternoon. ”

Le Yan blinked his eyes wide, and said while recalling, and quietly noticed how Le Chen's expression changed in front of him after speaking, but unfortunately he couldn't see any suspicion at all.

Lechen lowered her head and pondered for a while, the more she thought about it, the more strange she felt, after Ye Xi saw "herself" come back, she didn't say a word to her, and she didn't even look at "herself" again, so it can be speculated that she should know that "herself" is an impostor.

And the thousand-word review she wrote for herself, it may ...... She knew all of this, or she might be one of them, or maybe even the one behind it.

As soon as he thought of this, Le Chen felt even more puzzled, he really didn't understand what Ye Xi was for, he was just an ordinary person, if he wanted to kill himself or had some other intentions, it seemed that there was no need to go through such a big effort, he could have done it while he was asleep under the big tree in the school garden.

Le Chen could conclude that Ye Xi was by no means an ordinary person, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that she suddenly transferred to her own class for some special reason, and then she was quickly transferred to her with herself.

You must know that in Lechen's class at that time, although he had excellent academic performance, he had never listened well to the teacher's class, so he had always sat alone, and the teacher was afraid that he would affect other students, so he was never ready to arrange a table for him.

A female classmate who had just transferred to her own class, who was beautiful, good at studying, and had a cold personality, could have chosen to sit in a higher position, but she inexplicably became her own tablemate, although Lechen thought that she deserved to be the face of the school, but she didn't think that a girl like Ye Xi would rush to this and become her tablemate.

After thinking for a while, Le Chen couldn't think of a reason, he looked up at Le Yan in front of him, stared at her cheeks for a long time, until the girl's cheeks were red by his strange gaze, and then he slowly spoke.

"Do you usually pay that attention to me in the classroom?"

Faced with Lechen's sudden question, the girl hesitated slightly, and her face was suddenly full of astonishment.

Looking at the girl with her head lowered and her face flushed, Lechen sighed slightly, stood up and looked at her phone, and then looked out of the moonlit window.

Before he knew it, it was 11 o'clock, and it was time for him to go to that place.

"I'll be out later, I'm not coming back tonight, and I don't have the keys with me. ”

"You lock the door, don't go out, even if I'm knocking on the door, you have to make sure twice before you can open the door. ”

Lechen walked to the door and whispered to the girl behind him.

"Before 12 o'clock, you called... Your uncle, let him send someone to protect you. ”

"What if... You still treat me as your brother, and you don't want me to worry about you, so you do what I say. ”

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon. ”

As if seeing the worry and doubts gradually emerging on the girl's face, Lechen hesitated slightly, but said softly.

After a few words, Le Chen regained his calmness, glanced at Le Yan, who had not yet reacted, and quickly left the house without looking back.
