Chapter Forty-Six: Return to Dongxiang Village
"Is there a specific reason?"
"Not yet. ”
"Then it's just instincts, huh?"
The lieutenant was silent again.
A few low sneers rang out from the surrounding soldiers.
The captain looked around him solemnly, and the sneer disappeared immediately.
I thought that the captain would reprimand her, but the captain said: "Your intuition may be reasonable, in fact, I also think that there must be something else in this matter." The captain paused, then raised his eyes to stare at her: "But we are not police, our 99th Regiment exists for the purpose of arresting capable people." The focus of our analysis is on the suspect's ability type and behavior patterns, which are studied in order to be able to better apprehend him. So don't get the focus wrong. ”
"Yes!" the lieutenant saluted and withdrew.
The Ninety-Nine Regiment is also a little-known unit in the Snow Country's army, this unit is very mysterious, according to legend, all the officers are capable and have a wealth of experience in fighting against the able.
At this time, the man with glasses spoke: "There is still a doubt about their death, that is, why their binding marks are different, some have many binding marks on the surface of their bodies, some have only one, and this ......" The glasses man walked to the other side of the barn, pointed to a corpse leaning against the corner and said: "The binding marks of this corpse appear on the neck. ”
He raised his glasses again: "Figuring out the cause of their death helps us understand the type of ability of the suspect." ”
"Besides, where did these ropes come from, and where are they hidden? This thick rope must not be too light, and he is only a fifteen-year-old boy, can he carry it in such a short time?"
"So...... It's possible that this is his ability. Captain Captain said.
"The ability is so powerful, but he is only fifteen years old, even if he awakens, he can't reach this strength, can produce this level of destruction, this must be D-class, right?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out. It cannot be ruled out that he has a helper. Is the suspect's mother locked up?"
"Yes, in makeshift cells. ”
"Arraignment. ”
"Yes!"
I don't know how long it took, but Snow Marks woke up.
The first feeling was a headache, a dull ache in my whole brain, like a hangover.
Snow Scar is not very old, but he has actually drunk, and he was once drunk by a hunter friend at a neighbor's wedding party, and he was drunk unconscious. The farmer's home-brewed wine was mellow and easy to get drunk, and Xueji deeply experienced the feeling of hangover that time, and he slept for a day and a night before he was completely awake. The feeling at this time is somewhat similar to that time.
What you feel afterwards is a warm, hard touch behind you, which makes the snow marks feel familiar.
This is the earthen kang of my own home.
Snow Scar sat up, rubbed his eyes, and looked around, it was his empty home.
The Snow Mark House is a row of thatched bungalows, one large house and two huts arranged symmetrically. Now he is lying on the kang of the hut.
It's not a dream, is it? After getting off the kang, I rushed out of the bedroom and came to the big house, where the pot stove was still hot and the food was still hot.
If you touch the wound on your abdomen again, where is the wound?
It looked like a calm afternoon, and he came back from school in the town's small school and slept on the kang for an afternoon. It seems that the previous escape, injury, and thrilling encounters such as the crash of an airship were all nightmares.
Was it a dream before, or was it a dream now? It hurts.
So, was it really a dream before?
At this time, Xue Zhen thought of something important, he hurriedly pushed the door out, and came to the yard, where flowers were blooming, which were planted by his mother, but there was no figure of his mother.
"Mom!"
"Mom, where are you?"
Snow Scar's mother suffers from tuberculosis-like illness, and she coughs when she is overtired or walks too much, so she usually doesn't leave the house too far.
Snow Scar hurriedly pushed open the courtyard door and came out into the street.
Familiar streets, familiar villages, but at this time they are empty. Snowmark cautiously moved along the corner, unsure if it was real or a dream. Considering that he might still be a wanted criminal, he didn't dare to go on the road openly, so he could only grope on the path.
After walking around the house a few times, I didn't see my mother or any villagers.
Snowmarks began to get confused.
He sat on a large rock outside the courtyard wall and pondered it.
How did he end up at home? Could it be that the girl sent her back? What happened in between? Where did everyone in the village go?
"Is the shadow there?" Snowmark tried to call a few times, but the shadow didn't respond.
Could it be that the shadow is also part of the dream, and is everything that came before a dream?
Is that foreign girl also part of the fantasy?
Thinking of this, Xue Zhen couldn't help but feel a sense of loss in his heart, although the half day of getting along was not pleasant, but knowing that she was not real, there was still some indescribable feeling in his heart, as if something important was missing. The strange feeling that far exceeded the sense of loss was fleeting, and Snow Scar didn't care, and quickly turned his mind to other places.
After thinking about it for a while, she really didn't have a clue, so she decided to continue to look at other parts of the village.
With infinite doubts, Snow Scar cautiously continued to explore.
The village was empty.
And what he didn't notice was that he was followed by a person, a girl, in the distance.
Violin.
Qin was like a transparent person at this time, her figure was fluttering, her footsteps were silent, and she couldn't even feel her breath. Snowmark was completely unaware of her presence.
Jean followed him all the time.
She held a sharp knife tightly in her hand.
Instead of taking the main road, Snow Mark took a little-known path - he walked through the cracks in the complex pipes of the water purification plant to the central threshing floor.
The threshing floor is basically the center of the village, with the elders' meeting hall on one side and the boiler room for heating in winter on the other. Whenever there is an important matter to be voted on, the villagers gather here. If the village is empty, then the greatest possibility is that everyone gathers here to discuss the matter, and with this in mind, Snowmark arrives at the threshing floor.
At this time, it was also empty.
It was late afternoon, and night had just fallen. And all the houses in the village have no lights, and the whole village is dead silent, like a ghost town.
At this time, Snowmark's eyes were drawn to a building near the threshing floor.
It was the only barn in the village.
The barn and the stables were next to each other, and the mules and horses in the stables were gone, but in the barn, the lights were on.
Half a month ago, it was in this barn that something happened that changed the fate of Snow Marks. Snow Scar had to leave his hometown, escape to the jungle, bear the notoriety of being the son of the devil, and hide from the villagers.
