Chapter VII. Dagger and set (ask for collection!!!)
"I'm just kidding." Kitagawa Temple casually dispelled Kamiya's future concerns, and at the same time squinted his gaze and looked at the humble hut behind Kamiya Miku:
"You see what's inside?"
"I said that if I didn't see Kitagawa, I wouldn't believe it." Kamiya will simply admit it in the future.
"Really?" Kitagawa Temple took a deep look at the future of the valley, and in order to avoid misunderstanding, he simply laid out the conclusion:
"I didn't kill anyone."
"Hehe, I also vaguely guessed this, if Beichuan-san was a murderer, he wouldn't talk to me so calmly, after all, the mouth of the dead is the tightest." Kamiya Mirai smiled.
After the conversation just now, Kamiya Future can basically determine that the possibility that Kitagawa Temple is the murderer is extremely low.
Would a murderer with so much blood on his hands care about another life in his hands?
Moreover, Kitagawa Temple looked at her very calmly, neither worried about her escaping nor afraid that she would call the police.
It's justβ
"I still want to ask, why did Kitagawa-san make it like this?"
Kitagawa Temple is still covered in blood, and he carries a bag of arm meat that has been forcibly glued with quicklime in his hand.
To be honest, if it weren't for Kamiya Miku, who was so scared that her legs were weak and she couldn't run, she would have opened her legs and ran away as soon as she saw Kitagawa Temple.
"I found these things in the bushes on the other side of the embankment, and it took a lot of time to dig them out of the mud." Beichuan Temple said lightly.
In fact, the whole process is not as easy as Kitagawa Temple says.
This is a place where the resentful spirits are concentrated, and the resentment in the air merges, and finally forms a multi-armed resentful spirit.
Even in Beichuan Temple, it took a lot of effort to deal with that resentful spirit.
But the results were encouraging.
A cold message came.
'Recover the ghost hand by the lake, one of the primary and advanced resentful spirits, and gain skill points 2. 5 Skill Points remaining. β
'System prompt: Chain quest in progress (2). β
'In this city may be hidden a mad and tyrannical murderer, who is skillful, cunning, and skilled in surgery. He has caused pain to countless women, and he is everywhere. It could be the little girl you're talking to, or it could be a police officer you trust. β
'Completion Condition: Find this mad murderer, capture him, or kill him. β
'Quest Completion Reward: Dagger and Spirit'.
Beichuan Temple didn't expect that this simple forest hut turned out to be the follow-up to the chain of tasks that he had started at the beginning of the crossing.
Not only did it bring him two skill points, but it also opened the second ring of missions.
Beichuan Temple groaned.
If he can get the weapon rewarded by the mission, he won't have to rush up and tear the other party every time he faces the resentful spirits in the future - of course, it is more convenient to have more things in his hands, and the 5 skill points he has deliberately accumulated are enough for him to light up the dagger as a skill branch.
As mentioned earlier, the skill tree is as vast as the sea, densely packed and dazzling, and it takes skill points to light up the skills on it.
However, this does not mean that you can only use skill points to light up skills.
The primary skills that have been lit up will continue to climb above the skill tree and branch after repeated use to a certain level of proficiency. For example, Kitagawa Temple's 'Bajiquan' is a branch skill that evolved after the skill proficiency of 'hand-to-hand combat' reached perfection, so the skill of 'Bajiquan' did not cost Kitagawa Temple's skill points.
And this kind of new skills obtained by repeatedly using oneself through proficiency is also more mellow and natural than the skills that you light up.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, Kitagawa Temple will not invest skill points to upgrade skills that have been lit.
But nowβ
2 skill points for basic equipment, 3 points for branch military dagger skills...
Beichuan Temple's skill points are reserved for him to open skills when he needs them, but this mission is rare to give weapon rewards, and it would be a pity if he didn't match the skills to win.
Just as Kitagawa Temple was thinking, the phone he had just dialed was finally connected.
Under the curious gaze of Kamiya Future, Kitagawa Temple picked up the phone with a flat expression:
"Is it the Gangye Police? Well, I'm Kitagawa, and the location is Lake Park a little below the shrine in Nerima Ward, where a large number of female corpses have been found. Well, by the way, when you come over, please take a change of clothes with the police. β
He didn't say anything that couldn't be heard, and he certainly wouldn't be afraid of Kamiya's curious gaze.
When he hung up the phone, Kamiya Mirai approached Kitagawa Temple with great interest.
"Beichuan-san, you really make me more and more curious, what else do you have? Police assistants? A detective hidden on campus? Or do you-"
"I'm just an ordinary student at Keihoku High School, just like you."
Kitagawa Temple glanced at this little girl whose mind was full of fantasies.
Ordinary?
Kamiya Mirai pouted: "Kitagawa-san really gave me a new definition of ordinary."
Kitagawa Temple didn't pay much attention to Kamiya Mirai, only to see him come to the hut and raise a kick and kick it the lock of the blue steel plate.
With a crisp click, the lock fell, and Kitagawa Temple slipped into the hut, followed by Kamiya Mirai.
When Kamiya Mirai saw the tragic scene, she couldn't help but cover her mouth.
"It's really..."
The stomach pouch was twitching, and something was tumbling in it.
If it weren't for the fact that Beichuan Temple was by her side, she would probably have begun to vomit.
Not only the women who had just died on the ground, but also several bodies on the neat wooden frame.
The musculature of Bai Huahua and the blood spots that had long since coagulated created a bleak and tragic scene.
Most of the women had cracked heads, signs of blunt blows, and blank eyes.
Kamiya Miku only felt cold and shivering all over.
For some reason, she felt that the eyes of the female corpses seemed to be focused on her.
A chill escaped from the bottom of her heart, and her palms sweated.
Compared to the appearance of Kamiya Future, Beichuan Temple's expression was much calmer, he was a medical student before he crossed over, and he had been 'all kinds of edification' by the system in the past ten days, so his expression did not change much when he saw the corpse.
It's just that when he saw the face of the girl on the ground, he also showed a hint of surprise.
He didn't expect to meet Nana Hoshino in this way.
The culottes of the deceased were wet, the bare arms of the upper body had long been missing, and the cut was unexpectedly beautiful, but the wound was pasted with quicklime, probably because the other party was trying to prevent blood from flowing sideways after removing the arm.
The plasma had been mixed with the mud and frozen. The killer seems to have had an extraordinary interest in women's arms, and the bodies of women whose arms were removed were simply stored in huts and were not subjected to inhuman insults after death.
It was also cold now, so there was no obvious smell of the many corpses piled up.
But spring is just around the corner, and it is estimated that this place will be abandoned by the murderers soon.
Beichuan Temple just came in and glanced at it briefly, and then walked out again.
His phone rang again.
