Chapter 21: A Confusing Night
Han Zheng stood in the crowd, secretly looking at the chubby villagers in the corner from time to time.
At this time, the chubby villagers look very different from during the day.
During the day, the villager seemed to be at a loss and at a loss for what was going on around him.
Now, he looks much more normal, and he can't see anything wrong with his body; He sat in the corner, occasionally echoing the angry crowd, looking no different from other ordinary villagers.
After a day, have you adapted to the situation and integrated into the "role"?
Or is he just an ordinary villager? His panicked performance before was only a little out of fear of the Red Ribbon Army?
Han Zheng thought about it, and still regarded him as the number one suspect in his heart.
At this time, the elderly villagers were very satisfied when they saw that everyone had responded to their call.
He proposed to gather the strong and courageous men of the village, and at noon tomorrow, while the guards were eating, raid them, seize their weapons, and then attack Masruta to rescue the village chief.
Although there are still some skepticism, most of the villagers have been stirred up by the moment and have expressed their willingness to participate.
Han Zheng was also mixed in, and he didn't want to look too conspicuous, so he also joined the crowd to show his participation.
The villagers negotiated and set the time and code, and agreed that the short-haired villagers would be responsible for contacting everyone tomorrow.
But just then, the door suddenly opened, and a man ran in.
With a solemn face, he approached the older villager and whispered a few words to him.
Some people around heard the content of the conversation, and their faces immediately turned strange and they started to talk about it.
Han Zheng followed behind, and after listening to a few words, he also understood the whole story.
It turned out that a male villager suddenly disappeared from his home, and disappeared out of thin air.
Some people began to wonder if this was the Red Ribbon Legion's ghost, and some even speculated whether this would mean that the Red Ribbon Legion knew about their rebellion plan and was ready to take action against them!
"Don't panic, everyone!" Seeing this, the elderly villagers hurriedly reassured everyone: "Don't worry, the missing villagers don't know our plan, don't worry about the leakage of the plan; As for whether this matter has anything to do with the Red Ribbon Army, it's still unclear, but if it's really the Red Ribbon Army who did it, then we should resist earlier, if it's too late, I'm afraid everyone will be poisoned! β
Everyone gradually quieted down, and the older villagers reiterated the importance of rebellion, and told the time several times; After that, everyone dispersed and went home to rest and prepare for tomorrow's "struggle".
Everyone walked towards their homes one after another, and Han Zheng walked behind the crowd, observing the chubby villagers at all times.
There were no incidents along the way, and after saying goodbye to several villagers around him, the chubby young man walked back to his house alone.
Han Zheng decided to seize this opportunity!
Since the chubby villager's home was not far from Han Zheng's home, Han Zheng also pretended to go home; But then, he found an opportunity when there was no one around, and immediately transformed into a guinea pig, and quietly went to the house of a chubby villager under the cover of white snow.
However, just as Han Zheng rushed to the wall of the chubby villager's house and was about to sneak in, a sudden change occurred.
"Ahββ!h
A scream came from the room, followed by a "plop" that seemed to have someone fall to the ground, and then there was no movement.
Han Zheng was taken aback, someone was the first to strike?
He hurried up and leaned out of the window to investigate the room.
In the middle of the house, the chubby villager fell to the ground, his head tilted to the side, obviously his neck broken.
What made Han Zheng puzzled was that there was no one else in the room except for the corpse.
Not to mention people, not even a single bug has been seen!
Han Zheng was outside the house when the scream happened, and he immediately ran out of the window, but even so, he still didn't find the person who killed him.
There is no movement in the doors and windows, so where is the murderer?
How could it suddenly disappear in such a short period of time?
Could it be that Transfiguration was used? After killing someone, you immediately turned into furniture or something else and hid?
Han Zhengxin believes that after cultivating, his eyesight has been greatly improved, and if the murderer turns into a small animal or bug and sneaks out of the house after killing someone, he will not go unnoticed.
Also, it doesn't make sense to use Transfiguration to turn into an object and hide it, there was no one outside the house before, isn't it a good time to flee the scene after the killing, there is no reason to stay in the house!
The more Han Zheng thought about it, the more incredible he felt.
At this time, other villagers who heard the shouts also came one after another.
The first to be housed were the parents of the chubby villagers, who fell to the ground crying when they saw their son's body.
Han Zheng also took the opportunity to change back into his human form and blend in with the crowd of onlookers.
The house of the chubby villager is very large, but there is not much furniture in the house, Han Zheng glanced around, and did not see anything.
The parents of the deceased cried very sadly, and the people around them hurriedly comforted them.
Basically, everyone thought that this must have been done by the Red Ribbon Legion, but because of fear, everyone could only comfort and dare not mention anything else.
After comforting for a while, everyone couldn't do anything, and they all dispersed one after another......
Nighttime.
Han was lying on the bed, thinking so much that he couldn't sleep.
What's going on with these people who incite rebellion?
It stands to reason that combatants should not behave so flamboyantly, but ...... There are no absolutes in everything.
Is it possible that some combatants are secretly playing tricks on other villagers with the intention of causing chaos?
Andβ
How did the killer of the chubby villager disappear so suddenly?
After the incident, the parents of the deceased remained at home and nothing happened.
Han Zheng instinctively felt that it shouldn't be as simple as using Transfiguration.
Could it be a combatant who is so fast that he kills and evacuates in an instant, so fast that it is impossible to detect?
Or does the killer simply use [teleportation]?
This thought made Han Zheng shudder a little, but when he thought about it, it was indeed too fantastical.
It's just a copy with an average combat power of 17.6, how could there be such a perverted master.
Han Zheng couldn't help frowning......
Early the next morning, the door of Han Zheng's house was smashed.
Han Zheng thought that the short-haired villager in charge of liaison was coming, but when he opened the door, he found that it was the organizer of the rebellion, and the older villagers were standing outside the door.
The older villagers looked nervous, as if something bad was happening.
"Did you hear that?" The elder villager pulled Han Zheng aside and asked in a low voice.
"Not only did I hear that, but I also went to their house last night to see it, and it was very miserable, and my neck was broken."
ββ¦β¦ Neck? Kindness? β¦β¦ Hi! That's not what I'm talking about......"
The older villagers hurriedly explained.
Only then did Han Zheng realize that it was the short-haired villager who was responsible for contacting the resistance, and this morning, he was found to have suddenly disappeared.
Many people couldn't find him, not even his home, as if the world had evaporated and suddenly disappeared.
Another one who can't see anyone alive or dead, can't see a corpse!
Han Zheng couldn't help but lick his tight lips.
Less than 24 hours after entering the dungeon, two villagers are known to have disappeared and one killed, and the situation is all confusing.
"Do you still act today?" Han Zheng asked tentatively.
"Action!" The elder villager replied categorically: "It's better to follow last night's plan, wait until lunchtime, and as soon as I give the signal, I will do it immediately, don't hesitate!" β
