What this old man did was really terrifying.

I didn't see it clearly at first, but I hid behind the tree, and when I looked closely, Hitomi noticed that there was a person lying in front of the old man, a girl, who looked about the same age as her. His face was pale, and his lips were black and purple, as if he were ...... It's dead!

At night, it was pitch black all around, and Xiao Hitomi could only see a small area shrouded in candlelight, and it was very blurry a little farther away, faintly, she seemed to see something next to the old man, but she couldn't see clearly, it seemed to be a shelf or something.

The old man looked at the corpse of the girl lying flat in front of him, his face was solemn, and after a long while, he sighed slightly, sat down cross-legged, untied the clothes of the female corpse, and exposed his chest.

Just when Hitomi was about to despise it, she finally saw what the shelf was, it was a simple and simple scale, with a wooden rod and a thick linen string hanging from two copper trays.

The old man put the scales to his side, and then took out a small cloth bag. The old man cautiously opened it and took out a knife from inside. Putting the cloth bag aside, the old man looked solemn and his movements were dignified, giving people a sense of sacredness like a religious ceremony.

With a knife in his right hand, the old man stabbed the girl's body in the chest, cutting out her heart and placing it on a tray on the scale. After completing this action, the old man wiped the knife clean, put it back in the cloth bag, and then took out a long black feather and placed it on another tray on the scale.

On one side was a bloody heart, and on the other side was a feather, but the balance could barely reach balance, up and down, and there was no way to determine whether it was a heart or a feather.

Anubis! Seeing this, Hitomi shouted in horror in her heart. Is there really an Anubis in this high school called "Anubis"? The god of death in Egyptian mythology?

In Egyptian mythology and legend, Anubis is the god of death, and one of his most important duties is to perform the "heart weighing" judgment after death. During the heart weighing ceremony, Anubis weighed the heart, which was compared to the ostrich feathers of Marth, the goddess of truth and justice. If the heart is lighter than a feather, or equal in weight, it means that the deceased did not commit a sin during his lifetime; If the heart is heavier than a feather, then the heart will be devoured by Amit, a monster with a crocodile's head, a lion's upper body, and a hippopotamus's lower body.

Now, that old man is performing a heart weighing ritual, and he is Anubis? Or just a fanatical religious believer? What's going on with that feather?

That feather doesn't look like it's made of any special material! When a gust of wind blows, the feathers will sway back and forth, and there is no weight at all, how does it balance a heart?

Soon, the scales stabilized, and the girl's heart was heavier than a feather. The old man didn't have any special expression on this result. He took out a large glass bottle, put the heart in it, then put away the feathers and the cloth bag, folded the scales, and put them all into an old-fashioned canvas bag, and stood up with some difficulty on crutches, and picked up the candle for the light. Looks like it's leaving.

Before leaving, the old man glanced back in the direction where Hitomi was hiding, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then turned to leave.

Because it was only a momentary thing, Xiao Hitomi didn't see clearly for a while, whether the old man's laughter was ridicule, laughter, or sneering.

"He's taking pity on you." A voice came from directly above.

A person hiding in the canopy?! Hitomi slammed down the tree trunk with her hand, and with the help of the reaction force, her entire body smashed to the ground. Although it was quite embarrassing, it finally escaped the fatal blow.

A guy in a tight black tracksuit with a black explosion-proof hood on his head jumped from a tree, holding a dogleg knife in his hand, and pounced on Hitomi.

Xiao Tong scolded secretly, this is to meet a peer. With such a sharp skill and strong explosive power, it may be an elite special forces in the army, or a high-end bodyguard, but in this case, the biggest possibility is that the other party is also a trialist.

Hitomi pulled out a spring dagger, feeling a little weak. This thing is small and stealthy, which is very suitable for carrying around, but compared to real military daggers, it is not a level of strength in terms of strength.

But this is the only one you have on hand, and if you can survive, you must buy a better weapon.

I'm sure I'll survive! With this belief, Hitomi swooped back.

……

"Recently, everyone has really come out." It was another day of evening self-study, Ye Chen looked at the information report sent by Tianyu, the key supervisors, and said softly.

Sitting next to Yechen was still Mu Xi, she was lying on the table playing with her mobile phone, hearing Yechen say this, she casually responded: "Is anyone mischievous?" Just clean it up and you're good to go. ”

Yechen put down a document and said with a smile: "You have no taboos and no fear. ”

"That's what it was!" Mu Xi put down his phone, leaned over to look at the documents on Yechen's desk, and said, "Rena? Is this person more troublesome? ”

"It's a bit of a hassle, but it's been solved now." Yechen picked up another document and said, "But this person, are you interested in playing with her?" ”

Mu Xi looked at the information on the document and said, "An Ruo? The name is very ordinary! What do you want me to do? ”

"Scare scare, scare scare." Yechen said.

If you make a mistake in your judgment, it will be a big trouble to kill someone who is not the trialist, so Yechen tends to adopt a more conservative attitude and try her details first. As a trialist, regardless of whether the strength is suppressed or not, the psychological quality is definitely much stronger than that of the average student. Every practitioner crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood, and it was easy to tell if they tried it a little.

"Okay." Mu Xi happily accepted this task, "I'll start arranging it." ”

Yechen said: "There is no need to make any special arrangements, she has already come to the door." As he spoke, he handed a piece of paper to Mu Xi.

"Student Council Application Form?" Mu Xi laughed, "She wants to apply to join the student committee?" Okay, I'll take a good test to see if she has the qualifications. ”

Yechen nodded, and handed these things to Mu Xi, she was very relieved.

Mu Xi put away the application form, changed it to a pitiful expression in the blink of an eye, and said: "This matter will take up a lot of my time, and I don't have time to do my homework, you let me refer to it!" ”

"This homework is just a paper!" Yechen was a little surprised, surprised by this guy's laziness.

"Isn't it a matter of brains to make a roll?" Mu Xi said that in her opinion, it is not a question of how much, but a question of whether to do it.

"Okay." Yechen was very helpless about this.

PS: Everyone knows this old man who imitates Anubis, don't worry too much, this is a foreshadowing, but it is not supposed to be in this task, there will be other tasks later, and this old man will appear again.
