Chapter Twenty-Four: Ma Gan's Next Step
July 13, 2045 at 2:20 a.m. "What about when you notice that monster looking at you from under the bed? Did you run away? Ma Qian asked Zhang Guang.
"No, actually, ah, I, I fainted." Hearing Zhang Guang's answer, Ma Gan paused for a moment, and then asked more bluntly: "Then have you ever thought about how you survived later?" ”
Zhang Guang shook his head: "No, I fainted in fear after seeing the monster find me." When I woke up again, the sun was already shining through the window, and it should have been early the next morning. I lay under the bed, looked around, and saw that the monster was no longer in the room. I thought, let it go. He quickly crawled out from under the bed, opened the door, and rushed out of the pet store. Then he went all the way back home. ”
Ma Gan then asked, "So, why haven't you told others in detail about what you saw that night in the past few days?" ”
Zhang Guang, sitting there, curled up slightly: "Because, because they all think I'm a coward, saying that when I see a charging pile, I will imagine it as an alien disguise." Especially my colleague, who lives in the same room, often laughs at me. If I tell him that the boss is a monster, he won't believe it and will mock me, so ......"
Zhang Yang sent the two mecha team members to the door, and closed the door after saying goodbye to each other. After Ma Qian and Ma Long turned around, they went downstairs.
"That boss must be the evil Blue Movie Star in disguise, and the hairless dog skin he prepared was accidentally discovered by Zhang Guang, so he became angry, and he was directly angry, and he lost his disguise......" Ma Long analyzed according to Zhang Guang's description.
"Do you think what the man named Zhang Guang said can be trusted?" Ma Gan looked at Ma Long with a sly eye.
Ma Long was puzzled: "Isn't what he said wrong?" This is exactly what we have speculated based on the clues. ”
"There are a few things that are very strange in what he said, but let's start with three big doubts."
Ma Gan stretched out the index finger of his right hand: "First, when I went to the soul companion pet store last night, I went into his boss's room, and the things in it were very clean and neatly arranged. There are also no hairless dog skins, or fragments of dog skins. It's not at all what he said. ”
Ma Gan stretched out his right middle finger again: "Second, he hasn't told anyone what happened to him that night in the past few days, but when we came to investigate, he said it in such detail. Do you really believe in mecha squads that way? Just because he was afraid of ridicule, didn't he tell his colleagues? What if his co-workers were caught off guard and attacked by their boss? Won't he feel guilty? ”
Ma Gan then stretched out his right ring finger: "Third, he himself couldn't understand why the monster found him but didn't kill him. I didn't understand this, if it was really the Blue Shadow Star lurking there, why didn't he kill him to hide his identity after being broken by this person? ”
Ma Long looked at Ma Gan, who had three fingers up, patted his head and asked, "Then you mean, we can't believe his words?" ”
"There are three possibilities." Ma Gan stretched out the index finger of his left hand: "First, he is lying, every word he says is for the same purpose. To cover up something or to induce us to do something. If so, then he is completely untrustworthy and may well be our enemy. ”
Ma Gan's left hand was placed on the index finger that had been extended: "Second, he was too frightened at that time, and he missed or misread something. As a result, what he is telling us now is very different from what is actually happening. ”
"It's possible, looking at his appearance, I'm still feeling palpitations."
Ma Gan put the ring finger of his left hand on the first two fingers: "Third, what he saw was real, and he told us everything he saw. It's just that there are some pictures that he says he didn't see, and those pictures that he didn't see are the final answer to all questions. ”
"You've told all the possibilities, and we're still not making any progress?" After listening to Ma Gan's tricky words for a long time, Ma Long hurriedly sarcastically mocked him.
"No, we've made a lot of progress. The identity of a hairless dog is difficult to check, but a person's is different. If we assume that his boss is really a blue movie star, isn't it the pet store that opened half a year ago? ”
"Let's find out what he did before he opened the pet shop. Or is it that he just opened this pet store disguised as a human, and how did he get his false information? In my opinion, it is likely that some accomplices helped it to lurk. So this time, it is exposed, will it still find its accomplices, change to a human skin, and appear in this world as another identity? ”
Malone nodded: "Yes, except for the one at the space base and the pet store owner." If there are other Blue Shadow Stars lurking around us, then we are even more dangerous. They must be served in one go. However, there is another possibility you said, Zhang Guang's kid is lying to us, what should we do? ”
Ma Gan suddenly smiled: "Don't worry too much about this, I have already thought of a way, and soon we will be able to know if he is really cowardly, or if he is hiding something." ”
Ma Gan quickly put away his brief smile again, and said solemnly to Ma Long: "In short, we will never let this ugly creature endanger the safety of our human beings, we must find out all the Blue Shadow Star people and find the Kade Spring Water." ”
Ma Long patted Ma Gan on the shoulder: "Don't worry, no matter where they hide, we will find them, because no matter how real the disguise is, it can't be concealed-" Ma Long raised his head and said confidently: "They are a group of ugly and evil creatures." ”
"They're a beautiful and friendly bunch of creatures." At the bottom of a bridge, a girl with a single ponytail and blue eyes was saying to a little boy who looked like five or six years old: "The Blue Movie Star will protect the children who get lost at night, of course, my sister and I can too." Can't find your way home? ”
The little boy's eyes were red, and there were some traces of snot under his nose. Apparently he had just cried, but he kept licking a lollipop in his mouth, as if he could only comfort his helpless heart by relying on it.
"Then, let my sister take you home. What street is your home on, or what's nearby? ”
"Hmph, I don't believe you, you're a bad person." The little boy said to the big sister while retreating: "You are a bad person, I saw it when I had dinner with my mother at night, you left without giving money after eating, and my father said that you are a bad person." ”
"Ah, this ......" the single ponytail girl scratched her hair, "this is a misunderstanding, my sister has a monthly pass." Later we all explained it. The only reason that a single ponytail girl's IQ allowed her to think of was this, but it seemed to be enough for a little boy.
The little boy licked the lollipop in his hand and asked, "Then why didn't my sister come home so late, did she get lost too?" ”
"How could I get lost, I'm being chased, ah, I'm here to enjoy the moonlight, yes, to appreciate the moonlight." She said as she pointed to the cloudy sky. The little boy nodded trustingly.
"Since you can't tell where to live, I'd like to think about it. Then you must be near that barbecue restaurant. Because you said you saw you there, no, misunderstood me to eat ......"
"I saw it at a hot pot restaurant." The little boy didn't seem to understand why his sister had forgotten what he had eaten at night.
"Ah, yes, I'm talking about hot pot restaurants. Let's go that way and look at the things on the road, and maybe you'll remember. With that, the girl with a single ponytail walked towards the hot pot restaurant with the little boy.
"Sister, you are really a nice person, helpful, well, that idiom is called, well, don't ask for anything in return."
As soon as the little boy finished speaking, the eldest sister suddenly stopped, turned her head, leaned over, and the smile on her face disappeared, replaced by an extremely strange look, "Who said I don't ask for anything in return." ”
