Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Black-Brown Skeleton
The black shadow man looked at Zhang Ze tremblingly in the cabinet, he was like a dying carp on the board at this time, trying to escape but unable to do anything. Zhang Ze took the rag from his mouth and said.
"I'll let you out, but you won't run, you won't shout, you know?"
The black shadow man nodded timidly, and Zhang Ze immediately turned a tune and continued.
"Speak, know or not."
The black shadow man hurriedly said tremblingly.
"Yes, yes."
"I'm so cowardly and learn to steal."
After that, Zhang Ze put the photo back into a brown paper bag, and then threw it in front of the black shadow man, and said.
"Where is your agreed place of delivery?"
"They told me to find the photos and put them in the locker at the supermarket, and then give me the rest of the money after they confirmed that it was correct."
"Very well, you take us to that supermarket, you don't want to play tricks."
The next day, the black shadow man took Zhang Ze and Su Kang to the supermarket, although it was just eight o'clock in the morning, the supermarket was already overcrowded, and it was not the home of office workers and young people at this time, most of them were elderly people who came for the specials. The black shadow man walked in front, Zhang Ze and Su Kang followed behind, and the two sides kept a distance. The black shadow man looked around, and Su Kang was about to step forward to check the situation, but was stopped by Zhang Ze. After a while, the Black Shadow Man suddenly disappeared into the crowd, Zhang Ze and Su Kang were a little flustered, and they began to look for the Black Shadow Man's (shēn) shadow in the crowd.
After looking for a long time, he didn't find the black shadow man, just when Zhang Ze was at a loss, a hand grabbed his shoulder, Zhang Ze looked behind him and saw the black shadow man standing behind him (shēn), Zhang Ze asked.
"Where did you go?"
The black shadow man didn't speak, and gave Zhang Ze a look, and Zhang Ze followed the black shadow man to the self-service bag storage and notified Su Kang to gather there. At this time, Zhang Ze saw a staff member wearing a peaked cap at the self-service bag storage desk. When there was still some distance away from the staff, the black shadow man said to Zhang Ze.
"He was the one who gave me the key."
Zhang Ze looked at the black shadow man and didn't seem to be lying, and even if the black shadow man ran away in that situation just now, Zhang Ze couldn't help it, but he didn't expect him to take the initiative to come back again. It shows that this kid can be trusted, so he said.
"You go and tell him that you plan to hand over the things to your employer in person tomorrow, and if he doesn't agree, you turn around and leave."
The shadow man nodded, and walked over. Zhang Ze watched the two of them discussing on the side, and after a while, the black shadow man came back and said.
He readily agreed.
"Let's go back."
It was all over by the time Su Kang arrived, he asked.
"How's it going?"
Zhang Ze smiled and said.
"Tomorrow is the main event."
"What the hell are you up to?"
After returning to the (chūn) flavor, the shadow man asked in a low voice.
"Isn't it tomorrow that after the transaction, I'll be free."
Zhang Ze motioned for him to sit down and asked.
"What do you usually do?"
"There's nothing to do, and when you don't have money, find a place to do odd jobs."
"Where's your family?"
"I'm an orphan and I don't have any relatives."
Zhang Ze thought to himself that the questioner was looking for people with no background to do these things, which showed that the questioner was still very cautious. Zhang Ze continued.
"Since you don't have any background, how did they find you?"
"I don't know, but once when I was coming home from playing mahjong with my friends, I saw a black shadow jumping out of the window of my house, and I was about to chase it, but I found that the black shadow was soon gone. When I entered the house, I found that not only had nothing missing, but also a wad of bills and a note on the table. ”
"What's on the note?"
"Let me go to the self-service locker at the supermarket the next day."
"That means you've never seen your employer from start to finish."
The shadow man nodded vigorously and continued.
"Not only have I never seen it, but I haven't even heard a voice."
Guo Jianyue walked over with a capsule and said to the black shadow man.
"Eat this."
The black shadow man took the capsule, his face was full of sadness, and his eyes gradually turned red, and then he said aggrievedly.
"You can let me do anything, just don't kill me."
Zhang Ze was amused by his embarrassed appearance and said.
"What do you think? This is the tracker, with it I can grasp the other party's location when you go tomorrow, and when you get there, you have to pay attention to self-protection, and Sukang will also protect you in secret. ”
The shadow man let out a sigh and said.
"Just don't kill me."
In the early morning of the second (rì), the black shadow man came to the supermarket's self-locker with a tracker, and yesterday's staff was still there, and he said when he looked at the brown paper bag in the black shadow man's hand.
"Follow me."
The black shadow man followed the staff to the back door of the supermarket, and after a while, a black business car came, and someone covered the black shadow man's eyes with a cloth after getting into the car. After a bumpy ride, they arrived at a barren mountain on the outskirts of Zhonghai City, and the moment the cloth was torn off the face of the black shadow man, he looked at the big pit in front of him and the uninhabited wasteland in the distance, and said.
"Big brother, what kind of place did you bring me here?"
The staff tossed the cap aside and threw a steady and powerful side kick into the pit. The shadow man was upset and was about to run out of the pit, but was kicked back by the other party several times. The staff picked up the shovel next to him and began to shovel the soil, but at the last moment, Su Kang kicked the staff down from nowhere, and then quickly dragged the black shadow man out of the pit. The shadow man hurriedly ran to a safe place.
The staff member got up from the ground, and the moment he took off his shirt, Su Kang almost didn't throw up, only to see that the left half of his upper half (shēn) had begun to fester, and he could even see what was behind him (shēn) through the hole in his shoulder, but the strange thing was that even though it was so badly ulcerated, he couldn't smell any peculiar smell. Su Kang shouted.
"Who are you?"
After finishing speaking, Su Kang realized that he was a little stupid, he had never seen a single person who could speak human words when he encountered so many monsters, but something unexpected happened, and the person disguised as a staff member actually opened his mouth to say something.
"You don't deserve to know."
With that, he rushed towards Su Kang, who jumped back nimbly to avoid the opponent's attack. Immediately adjusted the strength of the robotic arm to 50%, and then Zhang Ze suddenly said on the walkie-talkie.
"Su Kang, catch it alive."
After hearing Zhang Ze's words, Su Kang lowered the strength of the mechanical arm a little, and the two fought together in an instant, this battle was the most disgusting one in Su Kang's history. Su Kang was surprised to see that as the man kept changing his movements, the (ròu) blocks on the (shēn) kept falling to the ground, revealing black-brown bones.
Su Kang still underestimated his opponent, and when all the (ròu) on his opponent's (shēn) fell, his movement and attack speed had climbed to the top, and Su Kang's (ròu) eyes could not accurately capture the opponent's movements. As a result, he was beaten passively all the time, and Su Kang used his arm to protect (xiōng) in front of him to withstand the opponent's attack, and staggered backwards. After about a few minutes, the opponent's attack stopped, and Su Kang was about to catch his breath and rest when he suddenly felt as if something was being restrained at his ankle. He looked down and saw a black-brown leg bone firmly wrapped around his ankle, and then the whole black-brown skeleton was firmly entangled around Su Kang like a snake, and the black-brown skull appeared on top of Su Kang's head, no matter how hard he struggled, it was to no avail. At this time, a long spike appeared from the mouth of the black and brown skeleton, and just as he pierced the spike into Su Kang's neck, a sudden gust of wind blew, and he saw that the spike in the mouth of the black skeleton was actually broken.
The black-brown skeleton that wrapped around Su Kang also loosened, and Su Kang stepped aside and breathed heavily. I wasn't stabbed to death just now, but I almost strangled myself to death by that thing. He looked around and saw a figure flash in the woods beside him. The black-brown skeleton was writhing in pain from the severed spikes, and Su Kang took the opportunity to immediately tie it up and take it back to the chūn bar.
After returning to the bar, Su Kang handed the skeleton to Guo Jianyue, and then told Guo Jianyue and Zhang Ze about the fight. Zhang Ze said.
"You kid life (tǐng) is big. But do you really think a gust of wind can break the other person's spikes? ”
Su Kang thought for a moment and said.
"I was also (tǐng) at first, but then I saw a mysterious figure in the woods. It must have exploded the character I had accumulated through my usual good deeds, so I was rescued by the gods in the mountains, hahaha. ”
Zhang Ze gave him a blank look, and then Guo Jianyue came out of the laboratory and said.
"It's still SG-01."
Su Kang suddenly thought of something and said.
"That thing can talk."
Zhang Ze said in surprise.
"Huh? Can talk? ”
Guo Jianyue immediately returned to the laboratory, and he extracted some bone marrow. When he observed that the cells were not only active, but also constantly dividing, it meant that the skeleton was alive. Faced with this kind of scene, Guo Jianyue almost went crazy, and he couldn't explain the reason. Zhang Ze and Su Kang were drinking in the outhouse, when suddenly there was a sound of equipment falling in the laboratory, and the two hurriedly ran in when they heard the sound, only to see Guo Jianyue sitting on the ground looking at the black-brown skeleton in horror, and the skeleton was making a sound that seemed to be laughing but not laughing. Su Kang stepped forward to pull Guo Jianyue away first, and Zhang Ze looked at the skeleton and asked.
"Don't pretend to be a ghost, just say what you have to say."
Just listen to the skeleton speak faintly.
"Can you save me?"
After Su Kang settled Guo Jianyue, he walked over and said to the skeleton.
"Oh, how can this be so gentle, why don't you see how powerful you were just now."
I saw that the skeleton shook its eyeballs that were not covered by eyelids, and Zhang Ze guessed that if there were eyelids, this look must have rolled at Su Kang. Zhang Ze asked.
"Who are you?"
After finishing speaking, Zhang Ze felt a little inaccurate, and asked again.
"What are you?"
"I don't know if I'm a human or a ghost or something else."
Zhang Ze sighed and said.
"Then tell me what happened (qíng)."
"Two weeks ago, I was coming home from the night shift, and it happened that the train broke down that day, so I had to take the subway home. My family lives in Wutong Lane, I was already timid, and I had to go through a very dark road to get home, and I vividly remember that someone knocked me unconscious from behind. When I woke up, I found myself tied to a piece of sick (chuáng), and then I passed out again after being stamped with something. I don't know how long later, when I woke up again to find myself in the garbage heap near the supermarket, my first reaction was to be happy, but what happened next was the most terrifying. ”
Suconna jotted down the address the skeleton had said and asked.
"You said your family lives in Sycamore Lane?"
"Yes."
"Are there only two buildings there?"
"That's right."
Su Kang showed the map on his phone to Zhang Ze, and Zhang Ze immediately recognized this place, which was Zhu Jianfeng's home. Zhang Ze asked Su Kang to write these down, and then said to the skeleton.
"You go on."
The skeleton continued.
"I can hear voices coming from my head every day, and they give me orders at regular intervals, and if I don't do that, I get a headache. In desperation, I had no choice but to do as they said, but then I found that my (shēn) body began to fester, and I didn't feel the slightest pain. I don't know what happened to me, I wanted to kill myself, but every time I was close to death, I was forcibly stopped by the voice. ”
Zhang Ze asked.
"Answering the shadow man in the supermarket is also the order given to you by that voice?"
"That's right."
Zhang Ze pointed at Su Kang and asked.
"Fighting with him was also ordered to do it?"
"Well, I have an iron directive to destroy anyone who stands in the way of my mission."
Zhang Ze thought to himself, it seems that the questioner and Qiman not only developed SG-01, but also used the corpse control technique on living people (shēn), and Zhang Ze hated the roots of his teeth when he thought of how they used such inhumane methods against an ordinary person. But now was not the time to lose his mind, and he shifted the focus of his questioning to the skeleton's quarters. Zhang Ze asked.
"You lived in Wutong Lane, was you the only one living there at the time?"
"No, it's not. At that time, there were many residents living there, but then the land there was bought by a company at a high price, and each resident received a considerable amount of compensation, but there were still some insatiable people who wanted more compensation, so they stayed there, but then disappeared mysteriously. ”
Zhang Ze said in surprise.
"Missing? Do you know what 内 (qíng) is? ”
"I don't know."
Zhang Ze asked with a little disappointment.
"Then why do you still live there?"
"Didn't have time to move."
"Are you renting a room there?"
"Yes."
Zhang Ze and Su Kang exchanged glances and said.
"It seems that he was treated as a nail household because he didn't relocate, so he was knocked unconscious and taken away, and then he became a ghost. In this way, it seems that the company that acquired this land is likely to have a relationship with Longyue Bioscience Research Company. ”
After a long while, Zhang Ze looked at the skeleton and asked.
"How do you want me to save you?"
"Kill me. It's not interesting for me to live like this now. ”
Zhang Ze glanced at Guo Jianyue and said.
"Send him on his way."
The skeleton said thank you and lay down calmly on the operating table. Guo Jianyue drained the bone marrow of the skeleton, and after a while, his eyes became dull. Zhang Ze asked.
"Could it be that a person who has injected (shè) SG-01 can survive without relying on internal organs?"
Guo Jianyue put down the instrument in his hand, shook his head and said.
"I think as long as the brain survives, SG-01 can sustain a ** life. But in terms of the skeleton's qíng, their research has not yet been successful. **The ulceration phenomenon is caused by the excessive phagocytosis of the mutant cells, but they have not had time to assimilate more ordinary cells. ”
Su Kang slapped the table and stood up, scolding.
"These people are beasts, beasts that disregard human life."
Zhang Ze looked at the god-killing spear standing in the corner, if Fang Fan was here at this time, he must know what to do next. Zhang Ze sighed and said.
"The clue now is that the place where Zhu Jianfeng lived before his death is the same as where this skeleton lived, and there are still some missing people there, so let's first determine which company is buying the land."
The frightened shadow man asked.
"Can I go?"
Zhang Ze looked at him and said.
"Go out and die? The questioner's men must be looking for you and the brown paper bag in your hand right now. If you want me to say, you might as well just hide here. ”
The black shadow man didn't know what to do, he originally thought that it was good, a simple task, and he could receive a large sum of money after it was over, but it turned out to be so troublesome. Zhang Ze and Su Kang came to the front from the warehouse, each asked for a bottle of beer, sat on the bar stool and listened to Toyoya Yu singing on the stage, and the originally noisy sound in the bar was quiet the moment Toyoya Yu came on stage. The magnetic (xìng) voice is the most healing, and every customer looks at Yu Toyoya on the stage in fascination, and she is the focus of the entire bar at this time.
Wanli stood beside Zhang Ze (shēn) with a glass of water, and she leaned her head on Zhang Ze's shoulder, who also leaned over to him. Wanli said.
"It's been hard lately, don't be too tired."
Zhang Ze raised his head to look at Wanli, then hugged her hard in his arms, and said in her ear.
"It's nice to have you here."
Su Kang on the side looked at the sweet two and said.
"You two are still there."
It's okay not to say it, after finishing speaking, Zhang Ze and Wanli kissed as if no one was around. Su Kang put down the wine bottle and threw the outer (tào) on the heads of the two, and then went to the booth to flirt with the girl.
In the dimly lit office, a slender (shēn) figure sank into the swivel chair, and inadvertently soot fell to the side, as if the sky was cracking. The person in the swivel chair looked at the test subject in the experimental cabinet outside the window and said faintly.
"With these, I have the world."
Qiman, who was standing aside, said.
"If one day you don't need necrosis control, will I be one of the labs below?"
As soon as the words fell, I saw the person in the swivel chair pull Qiman towards him, and Qiman sat on the person's lap. 绮蔓 (jiāo) said angrily.
"Nasty, scare me."
With that, the person in the swivel chair bit Qiman's lip hard and said.
"Small-mouthed nonsense will be punished."
Qiman enjoyed the pain and pleasure as the man in the swivel chair pushed Qiman away and continued.
"There can be no more mistakes in what follows."
"Don't worry. They won't be caught again like they are today. ”
"You go out first."
After Qiman left, the man turned on his computer and looked at a list. Most of them are homeless homeless people or disabled orphans who have no one to adopt in an orphanage. The man rhythmically tapped on the keyboard and jotted down the information of several people, then closed his eyes and fell back into the swivel chair.
