Chapter 63: The Devil's Vine
"This is a human organ trafficking organization called Dios." Eva settled down and said slowly, "Specializing in killing martial artists with no background on various remote planets, preferring prey with strength above and below the level of amethyst, after killing, they will seize the corresponding organs that meet the requirements." ”
"My father was killed by the group many years ago, and I've been tracking the group ever since, hoping to one day avenge my father."
"I've been wandering the border systems for thirty years, only to find this group elusive and tight-lipped. A few months ago, I captured one of their members on the planet Dawa and handed it over to the magistrate, only to see that the member left a message of Dios eternal and then killed himself on the spot. ”
"But from that member's residence, I still found some useful information, and I followed the clues to Hill Star, hoping to gain something, but it seems to have been reversed."
"To be able to catch such a murderer with your own hands, and dare to come to Hill Star alone, sister, you shouldn't just be a mid-level martial artist, right?" Chen Mengmeng raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Not really." Eva readily admitted, "I'm a Blue Crystal Warrior, but I'm better at using poison. ”
Hearing the word poison, Sam on one side quietly moved a little to the other side.
Eva glanced at him with a pair of beautiful eyes, and turned her head to look at Chen Mengmeng: "I have a question, why didn't you think I was the murderer when you saw me?" We hadn't been close friends before, had we? ”
Chen Mengmeng didn't expect her to notice this, and smiled: "I met Doudou and them, and they said that there was a young woman they had never met to help them heal, and when I was helping Doudou fix his elbows, I smelled the same perfume on your body." I just don't believe that a person who is willing to treat a group of refugees who have never known anything else can be a murderer. ”
"It turned out to be a scent... You mean the little boy? I didn't know his name was Doudou. Eva nodded thoughtfully, "It's me, but I think I've already drugged his hand?" ”
"There's also misalignment and cracked bones inside, and it's swollen when I see it."
"That's it." Eva's face was scornful, "I'm not like my father, I'm not good at medicine, I'm only good at mixing poisons. It's strange to say, no matter what medicine I mix according to my medical skills, I will eventually make a poison in my hand. ”
This is the real Breaking Bad, Doudou's survival is a big fate.
Chen Mengmeng comforted with difficulty: "That's also... It's kind of a talent. ”
"Did you find any clues about the murderer when you came to this Hill Star?"
"Not only did I not find any clues about him, but he even provoked me and specifically picked on people who had contact with me, and the first patrol soldier to die was one of the guys who came to pick us up on the shuttle, and we had an appointment that night, the adult kind, you know." Eva blinked.
Chen Mengmeng: Just, I don't really want to understand...
"As for Captain Yang, he is a good man and sincerely wants to be friends with me, but I won't stay here for long, so I refuse him. On the night of rejecting him, I found a sneaky figure, I followed him all the way, but I was too anxious, I lost my vigilance in the pursuit, and the night was dark, and he was introduced into the devil's vine forest in this no-man's land, so I met you here. Eva smiled wryly and shrugged.
"When did you track that figure?"
"It's about one o'clock in the middle of the night, and I just separated from Captain Yang."
"But the time of death announced by Captain Yang was almost one or two o'clock in the morning." Chen Mengmeng felt a little puzzled, "According to what you said, the person you tracked down was the killer this time, how could he trick you into this mountain again, and kill Captain Yang at the same time?" ”
"Why?" When Eva heard this, her face changed, "There is more than one murderer this time?" ”
"Oops!" A rough wail next to him interrupted the two of them's contemplation, "What murderer is not a murderer, you don't care about a few of them, we are all going to die here, and it doesn't matter if there are a hundred people with you?" ”
Lying on the ground, Sam clutched his stomach, which had begun to growl, and cried out in pain.
Eva's face changed, but she couldn't say anything to refute, after all, she had been trapped here for three days, and in the past three days, she had tried many ways to fight against these overwhelming vines, but with little success, even the supplies she carried with her were gone.
If you continue to be trapped here, it will be a matter of time before you die.
"This is the devil vine, I heard about it in the early years, it is a very rare plant, but I have only heard that it will branch out of the body, and the range of spreading out stretches for more than ten miles, when the creature breaks into its range it will not have any reaction, but once the creature wants to escape from the area of the vine, the vine will be like a living thing, quickly wrap around it, and when it loses the ability to resist, it will be sent to the main body to devour."
"In the past three days, I have tried many methods, and I have tried in all directions, but I can't get out. There are too many vines, even if you can break three or four, there are dozens or hundreds of them that will pounce on you, not even in the air, I tried to go up before, and the back wings of the mecha were broken. ”
"This vine is afraid of fire, but it can't be burned by fire, the humidity here is too heavy for ordinary fire to ignite. Even if the engine oil I carried all over my body was poured out, I wouldn't be able to burn the vines for more than ten miles. What's more, if the grass and trees all over the mountains really burn, I can't escape it myself. ”
Listening to Eva's words, the three people present fell silent again.
Chen Mengmeng got up and walked around the area where the body was located, and indeed as Eva said, there were vines of this devil vine in all directions, and there were no gaps.
When she saw the lake where the body was located, Chen Mengmeng was thoughtful.
"If you can't go to heaven, what about going down to earth?"
"Down to the ground," Eva was stunned, "You mean the lake?" ”
"It's not a low-lying area, and there's no water around it, but suddenly there's a small lake, and I suspect there's an underground current at the bottom, and if it is, then we can get out of here along the undercurrent."
"yes, I didn't think of that!" Eva's face was pleasantly surprised, but then her face fell again: "But what if we enter the lake and these vines come in?" ”
"Then pour oil on the surface of the lake and light a fire to stop them! I bet that its body in the water can't move, that's why it needs to evolve so many branches for itself to hunt. ”
"Okay, then let's try, I'm my sister here, I'll go down and have a look first." Eva readily agreed.
