Chapter 6: When Law Meets Morality
The appearance of bone spurs overturned some of Zhang Yang's previous judgments.
Before, he thought that the chance of mutants appearing would not be too high, but he forgot one thing, this is in Huaxia.
The population of the United States in 2004 was about 290 million, and it will not exceed 300 million, while China, the most populous country on Shijie, has a population of 1.3 billion.
Even if there is one mutant in 10,000 people, this ratio is an extremely large number in Huaxia, reaching 13W people, such a huge mutant army is enough to easily overthrow and destroy any small country.
What's more, the actual proportion is not limited to this, as the world passes, more and more mutants appear, and gradually break away from normal society, and begin to confront government agencies, on the one hand, they join an anti-human organization similar to the Brotherhood, which belongs to the hawks, and on the other hand, the doves led by Professor X.
This small village is just the most inconspicuous place in China, and a mutant has already appeared, which is indeed beyond Zhang Yang's expectations.
"Perhaps, I really underestimated this shijie."
This thought crossed Zhang Yang's mind, this is good and bad news, maybe when he goes to the restaurant to eat, the cook is a fire control guy, maybe the boxing is a mutant with a strengthened body, maybe he picks up rags, he is a mind control ......
This means that in any place, mutants who have not yet been exposed may appear, but in Huaxia, because of the strong legal control of the government, these mutants are afraid of their own liliang and dare not tell others, so they have not formed an organization.
"Now that the government knows about the mutants, it will definitely respond, maybe there really is a paranormal organization like the Chinese Dragon Group?"
Zhang Yang believed. In this Shijie Huaxia country, the government should have mastered the information of mutants, and has already responded, and there may even be quite a few mutants who have been recruited by the state to work for the government, if they are caught, although they don't know whether they are hunted or imprisoned, or recruited, this is not the result that Zhang Yang wants to see.
Beetles fluttering on their fingertips remained in the yard, monitoring the situation outside. Zhang Yang walked into the house, it was a mess, clothes and sundries were turned over everywhere, and the old village chief, who was still drinking with himself during the day, was lying on the bed with his eyes open. When he had been breathing for a long time, he had a shocking wound on his neck. The old lady next to her was also no longer breathing.
Seeing familiar faces have frozen. The warmth in Zhang Yang's heart was completely cold.
"Bone spurs!"
Zhang Yang's hand was clenched into a fist, and the green tendons on it burst out, showing how angry Zhang Yang was in his heart.
Closing his eyes, a picture came to mind, with a pitch-black cornfield below, through the faint moonlight. A panicked figure can be seen running frantically, and the owner of the picture is above the cornfield, following the figure closely.
While outside the wall, Zhang Yangbian summoned two scarabs. One quietly followed the bone spur away, and the other stayed by his side, showing him the way.
Suddenly, the scarab beetle in the courtyard came out with a warning, and someone was coming.
Through the eyes of the scarab beetle, you can see that a group of people wearing vests and slippers, holding flashlights and farm tools, are hurrying forward, there are old and young inside, and several young people with shovels rush to the front.
"Hurry up, I heard a shout there just now, maybe the old village chief's house has been robbed!"
"Damn, the old village chief dares to steal everything at home, don't send it to the police station when you catch the thief, and beat him up!"
"The others outflank, don't let the thief escape!"
When the old village chief was killed by a bone spur, the movement was heard by the surrounding villagers, who thought that the old village chief had a thief in his house, for fear of startling the snake, and then quickly found someone, and rushed over with a flashlight, and also held a shovel and iron rod in his hand.
I knew that there could be no delay here, and if it was blocked by the villagers, it would take a lot of effort to explain, and the bone spurs had already run away at that time.
Even if the villagers knew that they were innocent, when the police came to investigate the matter here, they belonged to the first witness, and they would definitely have to stay to make a record, and counting the funeral of the old village chief, etc., Zhang Yang had no time to scratch the bone spurs.
However, once he goes to chase the bone spur, the villagers who find out that the old village chief has been killed will definitely notify him, but as a result, he is no longer at home, no one can find him, and maybe he will be regarded as a suspect.
What's more, the bone spur Zhang Yang must be killed, and this guy must not be allowed to escape, even if he comes back, he will be charged with being a murderer, and the tone is so troublesome, he simply leaves, and then thinks of another way to leave afterwards.
"Old village chief, rest in peace, I will definitely kill that guy for you!"
Zhang Yang stepped forward and asked the old village chief to close his eyes, and then walked out of the house, heard a commotion outside, and suddenly did not dare to stay for a long time, climbed up the wall a few times, and got into the cornfield.
Almost as soon as he entered, the villagers arrived in the courtyard, and when they entered the door, they found the miserable situation of the old couple, and immediately let out a burst of exclamation, and all the villagers were enraged.
"That bastard did it! I'm going to kill him! ”
"Evil, how did Lao He end up like this with such a good person?"
"Damn thieves! It must be that vase that beckoned the thief! ”
The old village chief has been the village chief for more than ten years, and he has a good reputation in the village, but now he has fallen into such a tragic situation, these simple villagers were angry on the spot, and they returned to their homes to call people, and also dialed 120 and 110.
In the crowd, a thin young man's eyes flickered a little, it was Xiao Liu, who delivered food to Brother Hei (bone spur) during the day!
"He really killed someone, what should I do?"
Brother Hei's jihua he knows, standing in the courtyard at the moment he didn't dare to come out, his eyes kept flashing, suddenly, a person patted him on the shoulder, Xiao Liu was taken aback, turned his head and saw that it was a young man from the same village.
"Xiao Liu, what are you doing coldly? Let's get out of here, I've seen it on TV, it's called protecting the crime scene, and you have to wait until the police come to the scene to solve the crime. ”
"Oh, it's okay, I'll get out."
The villagers surrounded the courtyard tightly, and no one was allowed to enter, only the village doctor and the village chief, and some respected elderly people went in to check on the situation and wait for the arrival of the police.
The scarab faithfully transmitted these images, Zhang Yang sighed, and had decided to leave.
The boss had already followed the figure of the bone spur, and the one who stayed by his side was Xiao Hei, the two scarabs could sense each other's positions, and Zhang Yang then determined the direction of the bone spur's escape.
"Due west, more than 3,000 meters away, running quite fast!"
With a movement in his heart, eight spiritual power tentacles quickly formed behind Zhang Yang, forming the shape of a spider, and then the tentacles bent and jumped lightly, and left here in a few jumps.
"If you want to catch up with bone spurs in a cornfield, using tentacles is the fastest way."
In the cornfield, the dense stalks block people's vision and forward speed, and there is no car for Zhang Yang to drive, the bone spur is very thoughtful, if Zhang Yang does not have the means of tracking, it is very likely that the bone spur escaped on the spot.
"Up, down!"
With Zhang Yang's mind, the eight tentacles kept jumping and left here, following Xiao Hei's guidance, and quickly moved towards the west.
"Huhuhu......"
The bone spur ran desperately, glanced at the luminous watch, he had been running for several minutes, according to his speed, he had probably run a distance of more than three thousand meters, and if he walked a little further, he could reach another village.
When the time comes, you can steal a car from the village, or find a way to sneak into the city and leave.
His pace slowed down and he walked out of a path in front of him, and at the end of the path, he could see a huge sand pit, about two hundred meters in diameter and about ten meters deep, an abandoned sand field.
In the rivers and fields in the north, because there is a large amount of high-quality fine sand hidden under the surface soil, it can be used for engineering construction, compared with the river sand and sea sand mined in the bottom, it is more convenient to mine.
An ordinary sand field can be mined only by contracting a piece of land, and dozens of truckloads of sand can be mined every day, which will be coarsely screened, and then used a special machine, similar to a large magnet, to suck out the iron filings in the sand, which can be sold separately as iron powder, and then the sand is poured with water and sold, and a truck of fine sand can be sold for hundreds, so many people mine illegally.
The profit of a day in the field is amazing, so it attracts many people to mine, a large amount of fertile farmland has been abandoned, the state has ordered a ban, but there are still people who are illegally mining, and moved to the middle of the farmland as a cover, most of the people in the battlefield have an underworld background, in order to fight for the battlefield will even have a fight, and it is normal for dead people to die.
The sand site looked to have been abandoned for a long time, with two simple small houses on the edge of the entrance, the windows on which were smashed, the walls inside burned black, and garbage and bird droppings everywhere.
"To the bunker? Well, that means I'm in the right direction, there's a path ahead of the bunker, and you can leave here. ”
Seeing the appearance of the abandoned sand pit, the eyes of the bone spurs suddenly lit up, because the area of the sand pit was too large, the bone spurs could only go around in a big circle, and just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly a ghostly voice sounded.
"Are you waiting for me?"
The bone spur turned around stiffly, and saw Zhang Yang suspended in mid-air, as if it was supported by something transparent, and his face was suddenly full of incredulity, and he lost his voice.
"You, you, you...... What kind of monster the hell are you! How can you catch up with me? That's impossible! (To be continued......)
