Chapter 171: The Killer
"Hmm......"
The world of consciousness gradually woke up from the chaos, and Chen Xin struggled to squint his eyes open, but his head was enveloped by an overwhelming feeling of dizziness.
“…… Head...... It's dizzy...... I'm ...... What's wrong? ”
The fragmentary memories gradually connected, and at the moment when the memory broke, the figure of a man in an old military coat with a weird smile on his face suddenly broke into Chen Xin's mind.
"Ahh
Chen Xin opened her eyes suddenly, and in horror, she realized where she was.
The dim and cramped space, no windows, no skylight, a strange smell wafting in the air, only a dim lone lamp overhead, at this time I seem to be in a basement; The only thing in this basement is the old wooden table in front of it.
I saw that the paint on the surface of this wooden table was mottled and looked very broken, but there were four square wooden boxes neatly placed on the table, all of which were closed, and I didn't know what was inside.
However, Chen Xin was not in the mood to guess the contents of the box now, and she was thinking about leaving at this time.
"Where is this?? I......!! Chen Xin wanted to get up, but found that his body couldn't move at all, and then he realized that he was tied to an iron chair with five flowers.
"What's going on?! I was kidnapped? Chen Xin remembered the situation before he finally lost consciousness, and his heart was suddenly terrified, so he desperately tried to break free from the shackles on his body, but it was still in vain.
"Help! Anyone!! The frightened Chen Xin began to open his throat and shout for help, and after shouting a few times, he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening behind him, but what he summoned did not seem to be a savior.
"Hehehe...... You're quite energetic. A hoarse and shrill voice sounded from Chen Xin's side, and I saw a thin black man wrapped in an old military coat slowly walking to Chen Xin's side.
The man's voice sounded like that of a duck strangled around its neck, in stark contrast to the rugged and terrifying countenance of his face. However, Chen Xin didn't feel any funny, on the contrary, the cold feeling in his voice suddenly made Chen Xin cold to the bone.
"Who are you?? What do you want?! Chen Xin stared at the man in front of him who had attacked him in the park, and his body involuntarily began to tremble.
The man didn't speak, but looked at Chen Xin coldly, and smiled with a look that had always been extremely unnatural. I saw that this person's face was strangely distorted. His face was blue, his eye sockets were deep, and his whole face was almost only a layer of epidermis, like a walking skeleton, and his face was covered with many charred scars, which also made his whole person look extremely hideous.
Chen Xin didn't dare to look directly at this person's terrifying face, she begged while thinking of a way to escape: "Do you want money?" I can call my mom and dad for you. Please let me go! ”
"Want to go? I can let you go......" The man's voice came out of the man's throat again, and the man's expression became more and more distorted. "But...... Hehehe...... You've got to leave something here. ”
"What...... What is it? Chen Xin said tremblingly.
"Hmph......" The man didn't answer, but turned around with a smile and walked to the shabby wooden table in front of Chen Xin.
"You know what's in it...... What's in it? The man stretched out his hand and flicked the wooden boxes on the table, and suddenly asked Chen Xin.
Chen Xin didn't dare to say anything more, and shook his head in fear.
"Hehe, there's a ...... in here But what about my "work"? The man crooked his mouth and smiled again. There was a morbid smug look in his eyes. "Something mysterious, something unique."
The man carefully fiddled with the box on the table, as if he couldn't put it down. After being self-absorbed for a long time, he seemed to finally remember Chen Xin, turned to Chen Xin and smiled: "Do you want to see my 'work'?" ”
Chen Xin was stunned, and an extremely terrifying premonition suddenly surged in his heart.
"Don't be afraid, anyway...... You have to be one of them, too. The man sneered and picked up a wooden box. walked in front of Chen Xin.
"Look, you still know her." The man said to himself, pulling up one of the baffles of the wooden box, revealing its contents.
"Come on, say hello." The man smiled sickly. handed the box in his hand to Chen Xin.
The two half-open gray turbid holes looked at Chen Xin without a look, and their white and stiff faces were frozen in the moment of panic and despair, and that face belonged to the girl who was killed not long ago.
“…… Yes...... Yes...... Ahhhh!!h Chen Xin stared at Zhao Jie's head in the box, and was suddenly frightened.
"Help! Help me!!! Chen Xin roared with all his might, and his whole person was suddenly swallowed by a wave of fear.
"Hahahaha, I'm so excited when I just saw one, I received three of them recently, do you want to take a look too?" The man turned around and walked back to the wooden table, put the wooden box containing Zhao Jie's head back on the table, and at the same time reached out to pull the other three boxes on the table open, showing the "girls" in the box in front of Chen Xin one by one.
Cao Yan, Mo Li, Wang Tian...... As expected, the box contained the heads of the victims of the three recent headless female corpses.
"Ahhh Stimulated by such a terrifying picture, Chen Xin began to scream again with his eyes closed.
"Huh, hehehe...... Roar! Call it! Despair! The more memorable these memories, the more successful my "work" will be! The man smiled wickedly, and his words were full of smugness. And you, too, will soon become one of my "works"! ”
"Woooooooooo......oo Originally...... It turns out that you are the murderer......" Chen Xin cried with red eyes. "Why...... Why are you eyeing me......"
"Why? Because your 'here' contains something that shouldn't be pretended. The man leaned down, pointed his terrifying face full of scars at Chen Xin, and stretched out his finger to point at Chen Xin's head. You have an image of me in your memory, and you have seen my "former face". ”
"But I've never seen you...... Did you recognize the wrong person? Chen Xin shouted excitedly.
"They almost hit me, and they said they didn't see me?" The man snorted coldly and pointed to the heads of Zhao Jie and the others on the table. "That day, I finally escaped the pursuit and hid in the demolition ruins, but I was not only seen by a few of you, but also photographed."
"Demolition of the ruins? Zhao Jie, ......?? Don't!! Chen Xin instantly remembered the night that made him sleepless and regretful. And in that memory, Chen Xin vaguely remembered that she did seem to almost bump into a passer-by when she ran away, but she couldn't remember the face of the passer-by at that time, it stands to reason that the other party has such a terrible image, she should be impressed.
"You...... Are you wanted? Chen Xin said tremblingly. But even if I bumped into you at the time, I don't remember you at all! Why do you have to kill me?! ”
"Heh, the human brain is very mysterious and complex, and some memories that you may not even be aware of may be lurking in the depths of your mind, and you can evoke them with a little stimulation." The man looked at Chen Xin and said coldly. "I deliberately disfigured my face in order to avoid being tracked down, and you were the last to see my 'true face'...... I must leave no possibility of discovery, so I have to recycle your brains as a precaution. ”
"Recycle the brain? You're crazy! Chen Xin looked at the man in front of him unreasonably. You...... You cut off Zhao Jie's beheadings and put them in the box...... Just to ...... The so-called reclaiming the brain?? ”
"Hmph, although the brain no longer functions after death, what about the memories that have been stored in the brain before? Will it just go away? Nobody knows. If someone could read the memories in the deceased's brain somehow, they might know a lot of secrets...... So, it's better if I recycle it directly. The man stroked the wooden box on the table and said slowly.
"On the other hand, the human brain...... It's really fascinating, any experience and information can be stored in such a small space, and it feels like carrying a person's life. The man smiled, and the sickness in his eyes became more and more obvious. You see, if you put their heads in a box like me, it's like breaking out of the limitations of time and space to collect the lives of these girls, it's an incomparable "masterpiece"! ”
"Perverted...... You're a pervert!! Chen Xin was already speechless in surprise. And the brain of the deceased can be read?? How is this possible! ”
"Hehe, there are some things in this world that you can't understand, the human brain is the carrier of memory, since memory can be 'written', then why can't it be 'read'?" The man shrugged his shoulders and looked at Chen Xin with displeasure. "Well, I didn't expect you to understand, you just keep your head, and I can throw the rest for you."
"Nope! No!! Let me go! Let me go!! Chen Xin was anxious, and at the same time struggled more fiercely, she didn't want to be the object of this person's "collection", and the man opposite her ignored Chen Xin's roar, unhurriedly closed the open boxes on the table one by one, and carefully put them back in place.
"I'll leave this one to you." After the man finished fiddling with those boxes, he turned out a new wooden box out of nowhere and put it on the wooden table, after making these preparations, the man slowly turned around, suddenly had a saw in his hand, and looked at Chen Xin gloomily.
"Okay, do you have anything else to say at the end?" The man smirked and slowly walked towards Chen Xin, who was already blank in his mind.
"Goodbye." (To be continued.) )
