Johnny's gaze was fixed on Bruce's face throughout, capturing the subtle changes in Bruce's face.

When he mentioned the rainforest, although Old Man Bruce behaved very normally, a slight twitch of his eyelids still made Johnny confirm his guess.

"According to our investigation, the day after the incident in the rainforest, there were people who followed the local residents and left the scene, and this is a suburb, the number of residents is not large, and the closest residential area to the place where the rainforest incident occurred is here, so I came here."

Johnny looked a little embarrassed, his brown hair was soaked in sweat and he looked pale and emaciated, especially in comparison to Bruce, the big fat man.

But his gaze was very deep, and his blue pupils were like the unfathomable surface of a lake, calm, but exuding a faint oppression.

Bruce knew that the young man in front of him, who looked very weak on the outside, was not simple, and he must know something.

However, while lamenting the efficiency of the police in his heart, Bruce did not intend to hide anything.

"Of course, the main reason is that I found traces of your activities in the rainforest, and the approximate trajectory of the drive out of the rainforest...... Well, and the guy you're walking with. ”

Johnny added calmly.

Old Man Bruce nodded, reached out to help the frame of his glasses, and said to Johnny: "I see what you mean, I did fish in the rainforest that day, and then I met a child, who should have been lost in the rainforest, so I drove him back." ”

"Kid?"

Johnny asked.

"Uh...... Yes, son, he looks young, much younger than you, about sixteen or seventeen years old, the same age as my grandson. Bruce nodded.

"I see." Johnny's eyebrows moved slightly, but his expression remained as calm as before, and he continued to ask Bruce:

"What does he look like, is he Asian?"

"Hey, how do you know? It was indeed an Asian kid who was not wrong, with black hair and yellow skin. Bruce replied.

"Looks like I'm not looking for the wrong person."

A very kind smile appeared on Johnny's face.

"Do you know his name? The Asian kid. ”

"Oh, I didn't ask about this, and he didn't take the initiative to mention it to me, you may not believe me, I'm probably confused, and I forgot to introduce myself after meeting him......"

Bruce scoffed.

"Can you tell us more about the whole process of your encounter with that Asian child?"

"Of course, well, yes, I was fishing in the creek on the outskirts of the rainforest, and the kid suddenly came out of nowhere, and scared me at the time, but he told me that he was from the rainforest expedition team, and he got lost in the rainforest, so I didn't think much about it, and drove him back here, and then he stayed with me until it got dark, and he didn't do anything special during the period, except for a lunch cooked by my lover, and contacted his friends through the Internet, and then left alone."

Bruce thought back earnestly, recounting what Rowe had done that day.

"Do you know where he went?" Johnny asked.

"I wish I knew that would help you, but unfortunately I really don't know where that kid is, I'm sorry." Bruce said, spreading his hands.

"It's okay, you've provided enough useful information." Johnny waved his hand.

"But then again, aren't you curious about who that kid is? Or do you really believe that he is from the expedition team? Johnny asked Bruce.

"Of course, since a police investigator came to inquire, at least it can show that things are not as simple as I originally thought, but to be honest, I'm old, and I don't bother to waste too many brain cells to delve into some problems, right?" Bruce said with a smile.

"Yes, yes." Johnny said thoughtfully.

……

Just as Johnny was about to ask something, Mrs. Bruce's voice came from the kitchen.

"Bruce, can you come and help me?"

"Just come, come!"

Bruce smiled and said to Johnny:

"Wait two minutes, maybe some appliance in the kitchen has been broken by my wife again."

"It's okay, you get busy first."

Johnny nodded.

……

After Bruce leaves, Johnny is left alone in the living room.

He leaned back on the couch and touched the stubble on his chin in deep thought.

……

Johnny didn't expect Bruce to be so cooperative, and it seemed that the old and kind old man really had nothing to hide.

But not knowing the whereabouts of the Asian teenager caused some trouble for Johnny.

He began to recall every word Bruce had said before, looking for some clues to exploit......

Johnny's five fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrests of the couch.

From the kitchen there was a discussion between Bruce and his wife about why the coffee machine burned out all of a sudden.

Johnny didn't show any impatience, though.

He was very flat throughout.

"Where are you going......

Johnny muttered quietly.

……

And at this very time.

Lost in thought, Johnny noticed something suddenly change in the back of his hand.

The fingers that were rhythmically tapping on the armrests of the sofa suddenly became stiff, and the phalanges under the skin and the metacarpal bones on the back of the hands actually squirmed!

In just a few seconds, the skin of his palm also began to show some strange changes.

The pores on the skin are starting to get rough and the color is gradually changing from white to tan!

"Gurgling ......"

The bones were constantly expanding and wriggling, like something was burrowing back and forth in the arm, making a creepy sound!

Johnny's bones began to grow, his fingers grew longer, and white bone pierced through the flesh under his nails!!

The palm of a normal human for the first ten seconds has now turned into a beast-like claw step by step!

……

"Oh no, not at this time."

For the strange transformation that happened to him, Johnny didn't seem to be a little flustered.

He looked at his changing palms, but his face was a little annoyed.

……

…

As the palm of his hand changed, his arms, shoulders, torso, and head also rapidly changed strangely, and the bones on his body were squeezing and expanding each other, as if they were about to break through his skin and prick it out at any moment.

The originally thin physique began to skyrocket!

Johnny was still sitting on the couch and quietly experiencing the terrible process.

……

…

Just then, Bruce and his wife came out of the kitchen with coffee......

It is probably hard for them to imagine that the young man who had been talking to them a minute ago would suddenly become the behemoth in front of them......

……

The crisp sound of a coffee cup breaking and a woman's scream could be heard from the villa.

Unfortunately, this is a suburb, and several villas in the neighborhood are also uninhabited.

So no one was aware of the cries and screams of horror coming from here.

……

However, the noise did not last long, and the villa soon returned to its original quiet range.

It's just that compared with before, there is an extremely thick bloody atmosphere.
