Chapter 84: Eyes, Don't Deceive
γHaunted house panicγ
Five words, shocking.
It's a picture.
In the picture, under the gloomy light, there is an extremely terrifying old mansion.
At the entrance of the villa, there are two rows of very vague figures, which seem to be men, women and children, but this is not a photograph, but a strange crayon drawing full of Gothic style.
This is an event card, not a practice that has already been uploaded to your computer for backup.
So, there is no specific description of this event.
There is only the sign of two stars in the upper left corner of this card.
Although there is no description, when Qin Fangzhou tried to observe everyone in this picture, he felt an indescribable sense of fear, as if those vague and distorted faces were trying to pull themselves into the picture, dragging them into the eerie mansion.
"So, senior, as long as this incident is closed, you are willing to tell the secret about that pattern, right?"
Qin Fangzhou confirmed again.
The old man smiled and nodded: "Yes." However, there is one requirement, this incident cannot be handled by your master, but needs to be handled by you. β
ββ¦β¦β
Seriously.
Even if the old man didn't say this, Qin Fangzhou could only deal with it himself.
After all, the matter of investigating the truth about Li Wanru has nothing to do with others.
Although Ji Wotou once said that he would be willing to help Qin Fangzhou investigate the truth of Li Wanru's disappearance, he ......
Before many things were clarified, Qin Fangzhou still needed to solve some doubts in his heart first.
But......
The old man suddenly emphasized this point, which made Qin Fangzhou a little puzzled.
"Why, let me deal with it? I'm just an apprentice. β
Intuition told Qin Fangzhou that there was probably something greasy in this.
The old man glanced at Qin Fangzhou playfully: "Little doll, although you keep saying that you are just an apprentice, in fact, you are much more motivated than Liu Xiaolong. If the old man is not mistaken, you should have gotten rid of the puppet status by now, successfully awakened, and become an aphasia, right? β
Qin Fangzhou was not surprised by the old man's penetration.
This level of old fritters, if you can't even see through this, it would be too much of a loss of identity.
"What? Boat Boat ...... You, you've awakened?? β
At this time, Liu Xiaolong, who realized it later, suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Qin Fangzhou with a surprised face: "Are you so powerful?" How did you wake up? Isn't it particularly difficult? Also, how did you awaken your character card? What's your character card? Isn't it amazing?? β
ββ¦β¦β
Faced with Liu Xiaolong's series of inquiries, Qin Fangzhou had three black lines on his forehead.
Let's go.
At this moment, the old man took a sharp puff of the old dry cigarette and made a crackling sound.
As soon as he heard this voice, Liu Xiaolong was like a conditioned reflex, and he quickly shook his head and hurriedly closed his voice.
"Bruce Liu, how many times has the old man said, don't be interested in anyone's character cards, role cards are the lifeblood of every legally awakened person. Your consciousness is too low, and it is precisely because of this that the old man has not taught you to awaken for a long time. β
"What the master taught."
Liu Xiaolong lowered his head stupidly.
The old man put his gaze back on Qin Fangzhou: "Didn't your master tell you that there are some incredible events, will there be restrictions on permission?" β
Oh?
I really don't know.
Qin Fangzhou asked, "Are you saying that there are some incredible events that require a specific level of authority to be completed?" - The senior mentioned it just now, and I saw that I was an aphasia. In other words, this two-star event, only the aphasia of Clearance 1 is qualified to deal with it? β
"Not necessarily."
The old man let out a puff of smoke: "Theoretically, any incredible event, all the Awakened with Authority, as long as they want, can deal with it. However, some events will have different special rewards for handlers with different permissions. β
Special bonus?
Qin Fangzhou looked puzzled.
The old man continued, "This event needs to be completed by the aphasia in order to trigger that special reward. And the old man's request is that you are responsible for handling the closing of the case, and then give the special reward of this event to the old man's hands. Questions? β
No problem.
Absolutely.
Qin Fangzhou is now determined to fight to the end.
Thinking back carefully, the half-star incident in the past, although the whole process was full of suspense, actually ...... And didn't put himself too much in absolute danger and despair.
Therefore, he guessed that now as an aphasia, he is probably able to independently compete for an incredible event of one star, or even a half-star.
Plus.
I still have an R-level quark card from Feng Warm, and now I can count the time, and I should be able to bind it to myself.
He went back and researched it, and maybe there was a way to put this R-rank blue quark card to good use.
Generally.
This two-star incident, although the premonition will be more dangerous, and the feeling of looking at the picture is indeed quite infiltrating.
But wealth is in danger.
In order to investigate the truth, Qin Fangzhou is determined to fight!
"So, this incredible event, although you can also deal with it seniors, you can't get a specific special reward. But if it's up to me to close the case, that's okay? β
The old man nodded.
"Excuse me, what is the special reward?"
The old man took a slow puff of dry cigarette: "When you go back and upload this event card for the record, you will know." However, it doesn't matter to you what the special reward is. Because, at the end of the day, you need to give that special reward to the old man. β
Qin Fangzhou asked again: "Why me?" - I mean, with the seniority and identity of the seniors, I want to find an aphasia to ...... for you."
As soon as he said this, Qin Fangzhou suddenly realized something.
Liu Xiaolong, who was on the side, also happened to say the problem that Qin Fangzhou suddenly realized at this moment: "Xiao Zhouzhou, this is a two-star incident, theoretically, this requires at least one Authority 2, or even Authority 3 Awakened Person, to be able to successfully close the case." Aphasia...... It's basically the same as sending people to death. β
Yes, that's the most important reason.
"Little doll, you have shown a good amount of courage. Didn't you say that you don't want to be muddy, but want to live vigorously? Old man, give you this opportunity. β
The old man's kind smile, in Qin Fangzhou's opinion, became more and more ill-intentioned: "And the reason why the old man chose you is another important reason. Even if other people with aphasia are willing to take this risk, the old man can't believe him. But you're different. β
"You want to get secret information about that pattern from the old man. Therefore, after you get a special reward, you will definitely give it to the old man by hand, and you will not keep it privately. β
"Old man, I can see the longing in your eyes."
"This longing look tells me that even if there is nine deaths ahead, you will not hesitate."
"Of course, the old man doesn't care about the true origin of the compass."
"What the old man cares about is to make the best use of things."
"So ......"
"Can this deal be done?"
ββ¦β¦β
Qin Fangzhou narrowed his eyes.
He suddenly felt that the old man in front of him seemed to have seen through everything from the beginning.
But......
At this moment, none of that matters.
Because the old man was right.
He, Qin Fangzhou, in order to get information about Li Wanru's disappearance, has long been prepared without hesitation!
"Deal!"
Taking a deep breath, Qin Fangzhou put the incident card in his pocket, his eyes firm.
