It's a pity that Bai Liang didn't "attack Liu Xing and others at night".

Early the next morning, Liu Xing and the three were called up by Dior.

Looking at Dior in front of him, Liu Xing said a little speechlessly: "So, Dior, why do you have the key to my house?!" ”

Dior said to him, "Well, I heard that Mak Yuqiang got a tuna today, so let's go to Mak Yuqiang's house for dinner at noon." ”

Looking at Dior, who was pretending to be stupid, Liu Xing could only say helplessly: "Okay, let's go to Mai Yuqiang's house for dinner at noon, but you have to tell me why you came over early and what's the matter?" Don't say you're just here for us to eat. ”

Dio smiled, took out a black stone from his pocket and said, "This is the advance payment given to you by the Duwang Town Protection Association for today's patrol." ”

"So what's the use of this stone?" Liu Xing said indifferently: "Or you just say that there are any restrictions or disadvantages about the use of this stone." ”

After getting the short sword from yesterday, Liu Xing knew that he didn't expect the Duwang Town Protection Association to pay the three of them well.

It was obvious that Liu Xing had guessed correctly again.

Dio said a little embarrassed: "Then let's talk about the advantages of this stone first, first of all, this stone is from the moon in the dream realm, so it has some unusual abilities, among which the biggest feature of this stone is that it can absorb water, just such a small one can absorb all the water in a standard swimming pool." ”

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, looking at the small stone in Dior's hand with some surprise, he didn't expect that such a small stone could hold so much water.

If I'm not mistaken, the water in a standard swimming pool should add up to more than a hundred tons.

However, this also made Liu Xing suddenly think of the Cross Lake, and I don't know if the "Watanabe Meteor" went to "take" all the things in the Cross Lake.

Of course, at this time, Liu Xing had already guessed what shortcomings this stone would have.

"Well, this stone must still have some flaws, otherwise those mythical creatures in the dream realm can use these stones to play with flooding the Seventh Army, first of all, how much water this stone absorbs, then its own weight will also increase the corresponding weight, so of course there is no water in this stone in my hand; Then the water absorption speed and drainage speed of this stone are very slow, and it can only absorb or drain about ten catties in an hour... ”

In the end, Dior's voice became quieter and quieter.

One ton is equal to two thousand catties... This means that it will take more than two years for the stone to fill up with water.

Liu Xing sighed and said helplessly: "So the question is, what is the use of this stone for me?" You can't just use it as a carry-on kettle, right? ”

Dior laughed dryly, and then said: "Actually, the best way to use this stone is to use it to filter everything in the water, and you can get real pure water with just one in and one out!" ”

Liu Xing nodded, this effect sounds pretty good, and he can use it when he encounters a situation where he needs to filter water.

But one thing to say, Liu Xing has not encountered the need to filter water since entering the Cthulhu Run game hall... Therefore, Liu Xing felt that after the battle of Gongwu, he could bring this stone back to the real world to his parents to use as a water purifier, which could be regarded as making the best use of things.

Liu Xing took the stone and said with a smile: "So I still want to ask Dior you a question, that is, you are inevitably too picky, just give us such a stone." ”

Dio shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "The landlord's family also has no surplus food, you must know that although this kind of stone is relatively common on the moon in the dream realm, but the moon in the dream realm is not a place where ordinary people can go, there are all kinds of mythical creatures all over the mountains, such as the moon beast, which is very unfriendly to human beings, mythical creatures can be said to be countless, so it is not easy for us to get this kind of stone... Besides, there really isn't anyone who wants to get their hands on this kind of stone. ”

After some gags, Liu Xing and the others drove to the city of Duwang Town after eating the buns brought by Dior.

However, Liu Xing was called into his car by Dior.

On the way, Dior mentioned yesterday's fire, "We investigated the fire scene more deeply overnight, and then we found a very strange thing, that is, there were some strange transparent crystals at the fire scene, of course, these transparent crystals do not look like glass formed by sand and gravel after high temperature burning, so we have now entrusted Nagoya University to analyze their composition, but we all think that this crystal should be related to the arsonist." ”

Dior pointed to the storage box in the passenger seat, and Liu Xing took out a photo from the storage box.

There are a few irregular transparent crystals in the photo, but this kind of crystals makes Liu Xing have an indescribable weirdness, and he always feels that something is wrong. ”

At this time, Dio continued: "Liu Xing, if you take a closer look, you will feel that these crystals can be put together.

After Dior said this, Liu Xing found that although these crystals looked irregular, if you put these crystals in the photo together, you can still find that the corners of these crystals are traceable.

"You mean, these crystals could have been one piece?" Liu Xing said with a frown.

Dio nodded and replied seriously: "That's right, at least that's what I think, but we can't prove this possibility yet, because at present, we have found dozens of such crystals in the forest, and these crystals do seem to be able to be put together, but those dozens of crystals can't be put together with each other." ”

As soon as Dior's words fell, the car radio in his car rang, "Everyone, please note, we found a damaged wooden boat on the beach, this wooden boat has no special features, but the incident happened suddenly, we suspect that there may be something wrong with this wooden boat, so we hope that friends nearby will come to support as soon as possible, the coordinates are d22." ”

Dio frowned, and said to Liu Xing: "Liu Xing, you call Li Hanxing and them now and ask them to follow my car." ”

Clearly, Dio wanted to see the ship.

After Liu Xing finished the call, Dior said: "I also told Liu Xing yesterday that sometimes the swollen daughter will give us some hints, and sometimes there will be some killers who will abandon their vehicles after entering Duwang Town, for example, some time ago, there was a killer who left the car he brought in the parking lot after coming to Duwang Town, and we got a lot of information from that car." ”

"So you suspect that the killer came by boat?" Liu Xing asked rhetorically.

Dior turned the car onto a small road and said seriously: "That's right, you must know that the coastline of Duwang Town is not short, and because the quality of the beach here in Duwang Town is very low, except for a small area, there are dense large particles of stones in other places, so the residents of Duwang Town usually only go to that beach to play, and the beaches in other places are naturally idle, and few people usually care about them... But the most important thing is that there are many reef areas along the coastline of Tsuoo Town, where it is easy to hide things. ”

"Therefore, after the establishment of Duwang Town, you can see a ship docked on the coastline every once in a while, and some of the ships are the kind of abandoned abandoned ships, which have been washed up here because of the current, and of course, there are many ships that are really related to those killers, so every time we find this kind of ship, we will go over to take a look, but the problem now is that if it is confirmed that this ship is owned by the killer, then this may mean that there are two killers in Duwang Town."

Looking at Liu Xing, who was a little puzzled, Dio continued: "The situation is like this, these killers sent by the swollen daughter are very road-oriented, if they come to Duwang Town from the waterway, then their style of action is basically related to water, for example, a killer who came to Duwang Town from the waterway before, his way of committing the crime is to drown the person who is bathing, and the previous killer used ice blades as a tool to commit crimes, so it is impossible for this fireproof killer to come to Duwang Town by boat." ”

Liu Xing nodded, he didn't expect the killer sent by the swollen daughter to talk so well.

At this time, Dio sighed and said: "Although that is the case, but now the brains of these killers are really getting bigger and bigger, so it is still too difficult for us to guess how they do it, and I don't know how the killers will play with the water this time." ”

As soon as Dior's words were finished, Liu Xing saw that several cars had been parked not far away, and a cordon had been raised.

After getting out of the car, Liu Xing looked at the five members of the Duwang Town Protection Association who were present... I found that I didn't know any of them.

However, those members all knew Liu Xing and the three of them, because Dior had already made the photos of Liu Xing and the three of them public when they helped Liu Xing and the three apply for temporary worker status.

As the "courtesan" of the Duwang Town Protection Association, Dior and the five people seemed to have a good relationship, so after talking for a few words, he took Liu Xing and the three to the wooden boat.

The wooden boat was stuck between two huge reefs, so Liu Xing and the others wanted to go down to the boat to either swim over or jump directly off the reef... The height is about four meters.

It didn't look like a tall man, but it didn't look too sturdy, because it was really a wooden ship, a wooden ship that looked a little old.

Today's ships are basically covered with a layer of iron sheet to ensure that they are strong and durable and corrosion-resistant, so pure wooden boats are basically only suitable for use in inland lakes and rivers, and are basically rare to see at the seaside, after all, the life of wooden boats in the sea is too short.

However, the wooden boat in front of Liu Xing and the others was a wooden boat that looked like it had been corroded by seawater, and Liu Xing felt that he couldn't say that he had jumped down, just stepping on it might break the boat.

Therefore, after Liu Xing and the others looked at each other for a while, they didn't know whether they should go down or not.

So, Liu Xing patted Dior on the shoulder and said seriously: "Mr. Dior, I remember that you should be able to swim, so why don't you swim over now to see if this boat is sturdy, and if you can, use your mobile phone to start a live broadcast for us?" ”

Dio immediately shook his head and refused: "That's impossible, Liu Xing, have you ever seen that ghoul swim in the sea?" We ghouls are four times weaker. ”

"Dior, you're not an ironclad rhinoceros, how can you be four times weaker? And I really haven't heard of you mythical creatures with attribute restraint. Li Hanxing couldn't help but complain.

Dio sighed, took off his coat and leaped off, then transformed into a ghoul and climbed onto the wooden ship with his claws.

To Liu Xing's surprise, the wooden ship was much stronger than they had imagined, and it was able to withstand the ghoul's claws.

However, when he stepped on the deck of the wooden ship, he had not yet taken a few steps before he stepped on a piece of the plank.

Looking at Dior, who was a little embarrassed, Liu Xing and the three laughed out loud without conscience.

After pulling out his leg, Dior unceremoniously raised his middle finger at Liu Xing and the others, and then entered the cabin to check.

As a result, within two minutes, Dio came out and said: "If nothing else, the owner of this wooden ship is indeed a killer, because there are many food packages in this wooden ship that have not been opened for a long time, and there are obvious traces of human activity." ”

After Dior finished speaking, he hooked the rock wall of the reef with his claws, trying to climb up directly.

But halfway through the climb, Dio suddenly said: "There are new scratches on this reef, it seems that the killer also walked here to go ashore." ”

Liu Xing lay down and looked down, and found that there were indeed several deep scratches on the rock wall, and it seemed that this killer was carrying weapons such as a mountaineering pickaxe.

At this moment, several more members of the Too Town Conservation Association walked over.

"Isabella?!"

Liu Xing looked at the visitor with a surprised expression.

That's right, Isabella is right in front of Liu Xing's eyes.

Isabella also looked at Liu Xing with a surprised expression, and said, "Liu Xing, how did you join the Duwang Town Protection Association?" ”

Hearing Isabella say this, Liu Xing knew that she was not a member of the Duwang Town Protection Association.

After some exchanges, Liu Xing learned that Isabella had only come to Duwangcho for a few days, and as for why Isabella suddenly left England and came to Duwangcho, it was because she had a friend missing.

Isabella's friend is naturally a member of the Du Wang Town Protection Association, and left Du Wang Town after completing three indicators in the first two years, and then suddenly there was no news some time ago, so Isabella checked all the way to Du Wang Town.
