Chapter 6: The Divine Stick
Soros Hotel, one hundred and fifty-eighth floor, room Z1581, the bathroom smelled of blood, and the body of a man floated quietly on the water of the bathtub, his eyes closed as if he was asleep.
And there were deep stab wounds on his wrists, and blood spilled from his wrists and stained the entire bathtub red.
As time passed, his skin began to turn white, with extreme morbidity and dead silence, and the corpse spots that were about to emerge could be faintly seen.
Next to the corpse, a man dressed in black and wearing a black mask was cleaning up footprints, fingerprints, and possible DNA leftovers, and he moved skillfully, cleanly, and without the slightest panic.
After cleaning up all the traces in the room, the man in black slowly closed the door with special gloves, as if closing the arranged gift box, and left satisfied.
And just as the man in black exited the guest room, a scarlet glow lit up in the bathroom, and wisps of light rose from the dead corpse, entangled in the air, and finally formed a person who was exactly like the dead man.
Fang Xiu fell from mid-air, raised his head to look at the corpse that had turned into dust in front of him, stretched out his hand to turn on the automatic cleaning function of the bathtub, and then the dust dissolved in water was quickly washed into the sewer.
With all the dust cleaned up, Fang Xiu completely replaced the identity of this dead man.
After looking in the mirror and tidying up the collar on his body, Fang Xiu walked out of the room.
The second life-stealing was finally successful, and after cleaning up the people who had been replaced by him, Fang Xiu sat on the sofa and began to sort out the memories he had obtained.
As the Warlock's Book said, even if Fang Xiu used a third-level growth spell on his own amplification through the Warlock's Book, Lifeframe Steal, it was probably impossible to gain any memories because he was not strong enough and this spell was not stable enough.
But maybe Fang Xiu was lucky, these two life steals, he gained a lot of memories.
"It's a bit of a hassle!"
Rubbing his temples, Fang Xiu muttered to himself.
The dead man who was replaced by Fang Xiu was called Wu Qiming, forty-five years old, born on Mars, both parents died at an early age, and came to settle on Ganymede with his uncle at the age of fourteen.
His uncle is a very powerful business fraudster, before Wu Qiming was thirty years old, his uncle was mixed in the top circle of Jupiter all the year round, Wu Qiming admired his uncle since he was a child, he thought that if it wasn't for the death of his uncle in an accident, those who were deceived by his uncle would never find out that they had been deceived in their lives.
Under this extreme emotion, after the age of thirty, Wu Qiming gradually followed the old path of his uncle.
His uncle said that he was very talented, and even admitted that his deception skills far surpassed his own, but he thought that he had a fatal flaw and did not have the courage to control the overall situation, so he advised him that if he wanted to take this road one day, then never deceive the real top elite of society.
Wu Qiming always remembered this until he was forty years old, he pretended to be a god, but he never deceived the upper class, but after the age of forty, he was a little carried away, he forgot his uncle's advice, and deceived the high-level of a small consortium.
It didn't take too long for the top management of that small consortium to recognize him, which made Wu Qiming very frightened.
But the top management of the consortium did not directly kill Wu Qiming after knowing that he had deceived himself, but asked him to deceive civilians in exchange for votes, and even fabricated votes.
And he Fang Xiu took the place of Wu Qiming's identity after being killed, and according to memory, soon the federal police of this world, LBJC, will come to arrest him.
Of course, it was not this that gave Fang Xiu a headache, but that this world was the same as the other world, also in the midst of war, the humans of the previous world faced the crazy expansion of the Zerg on the opposite side of the galaxy, and in this world, the human race was facing another mad civilization that wanted to sublimate the entire universe.
Proxima Centauri is the third star of the South Gate 2 (α Centauri) triad, also known as α Centauri C according to the Bayer nomenclature.
It is the closest star to the solar system (4.22 light-years), and hundreds of years ago, Proxima Centauri's third planet civilization completed its own sublimation of the machine realm, and then began to expand wildly, just as they were about to break out of their own star system, they collided with the human civilization that also rushed out of the earth.
As a result, an extreme war broke out between humans and machines, and the interstellar war put both races in a state of discomfort, but the machine race firmly held the advantage.
Although it is said that the madman civilization sublimated by this machine world has not reached the height of the Zerg civilization, but compared to the war with the Zerg, the war here has fallen into a greater decline, if it is not for the distance limit, it is estimated that the home planet defense war will be fought now.
It is precisely because of this huge external pressure that the entire human race began to degenerate madly after a hundred years of crazy war oppression, and various sects, consortia, and warlords began to expand wildly.
In short, in this era, the power of the Federation has begun to crumble, and it is the various conglomerates and fleet warlords who are in no mood to save the world, they are just thinking about the final madness.
It's also the madness of the last twenty years.
Finishing here, Fang Xiu, who was sitting on the sofa, frowned, this is obviously not a good choice world.
But......... If you can really sit on the identity, maybe you can try to leave a useful identity, since it is a god stick leader, then the request for sacrifice should also exist, right?
An interesting plan suddenly popped into Fang Xiu's mind.
………
"Boom!"
The main door of the hotel room was directly slammed open, and a group of heavily armed federal police officers rushed into the guest room, and a firearm with infrared automatic aiming was instantly aimed at "Wu Qiming" who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa and meditating, and red dots dangled on his forehead.
But in the face of such a big movement, "Wu Qiming" did not react at all, he was still calm, he didn't even open his eyes, just closed his eyes and said:
"Actually, there's no need to be so violent, won't you ask the hotel for a key?"
Captain Li Muhua walked in, looking at the "Wu Qiming" who was still immortal in front of him, even he had to admit that it was no wonder that so many people believed that this person was really about to become an immortal and save the world, if he hadn't read the information, he might really be deceived by this performance.
"You're really calm."
Li Muhua reached out and touched the tea on the table, it was still hot.
This shows that even if the other party's apprentice told "Wu Qiming" the news that they were about to arrest him, this guy still did not have the slightest impatience, and even had the heart to make tea and meditate.
Li Muhua found another reason why those people were deceived, just this calmness of "the Tianshan Mountains collapsed in front of you, and the complexion did not change" is not something that ordinary people can have.
"Or else?"
"Wu Qiming" calmly opened his eyes and looked at Li Muhua, who realized that the other party's eyes were extremely clear, Shenhua was introverted, and there was no fatigue in the world.
Li Muhua has seen the eyes of many prisoners, most of them are bloodshot and tired, but the people in front of him are not half a point.
"Most people who see us are scared to death." Li Muhua pointed to himself.
"I was killed just once before you came, and you didn't have the violence that killed me, so why should I panic?" "Wu Qiming" said with a smile.
"Has anyone been here? Killed you? Li Muhua's face changed.
"Wu Qiming" put down his crossed legs, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea: "Just left, if you come an hour earlier, you should still be able to have a cup of tea with him, at that time he just cut my wrist and bled me to fake the suicide scene, that is a serious person, and the dagger is quite good." ”
Li Muhua frowned, looked at "Wu Qiming's" wrist, the wrist was smooth and traceless, but listening to "Wu Qiming's" serious tone, he suddenly didn't know whether what "Wu Qiming" said was true or false, but he still ordered: "Go and adjust the hotel monitoring." ”
"If I were you, I wouldn't have gone through the surveillance, and since they wanted to kill them, they wouldn't leave evidence." "Wu Qiming" stood up and said.
With "Wu Qiming" getting up, all the firearms immediately moved with his body, but "Wu Qiming" didn't mind at all.
"But you're still alive, I really can't tell you're going to die." Li Muhua glanced at him and said.
"Yes, but I'm still alive, and I guess the other party can't imagine that I'm still alive."
Speaking of this, "Wu Qiming" raised his head and said, "Do you want to be handcuffed?" ”
Li Muhua was stunned when he heard this, he found that the guy in front of him was really not at all different from the criminals he had seen before, and he really didn't seem to be afraid at all.
Frowning, Li Muhua finally asked people to handcuff "Wu Qiming" and take it to the Federal Executive Division, but he did not immediately go to see "Wu Qiming", but let people check the surveillance and the entire guest room, and finally the forensic doctor extracted Wu Qiming's blood in the bathtub.
According to the medical examiner, although the blood stains in the bathtub had been diluted and processed, at least half of the blood of a living person had been placed, but the slightest container containing the blood was not found at the scene.
This is contrary to the words of "Wu Qiming", but Li Muhua did not see anyone entering and leaving during the surveillance, but it is indeed possible that as "Wu Qiming" said, all the evidence has been processed.
But if someone really cut his wrists and bleed, then how did "Wu Qiming" survive?
Li Muhua didn't figure it out in the end, so he was going to ask "Wu Qiming".
Li Muhua is an old man in the new federal executive department, and he understands that this investigation is not because Wu Qiming violated the rules, but because Wu Qiming has violated the interests of certain consortiums, and Wu Qiming's arrest is just a counterattack by the consortium.
The most important thing in this case is whether or not you can catch the forces behind Wu Qiming, and the rest is not important.
When Li Muhua arrived at the interrogation room, it had already begun, and as soon as he walked into the next door of the interrogation room, Li Muhua heard the roar of the interrogation room next door in the listening room.
"Do you think this is your home? You're addicted to pretending to be a ghost, isn't it? Do you think you're really the savior of some immortal? ”
Li Muhua didn't even need to look at the one-way soundproof glass to know that it must be Luda who roared inside, and no one in the entire executive division would roar like this except Luda, and others generally like to do it directly, so they are generally called prisoners.
In the face of Luda's questioning, "Wu Qiming" still seemed calm, and Li Muhua even saw the other party raise his head and look at him, and then said: "How do you know that what I said is false?" ”
It's just ......... glanced at me......... Li Muhua frowned, through the one-way glass, how did the other party see him, perhaps......... It's an illusion.
In the interrogation room, Ruda's roar was still there, and spit was flying.
"Say you're fat, you're still panting, do you think we're going to be as easy to deceive as your brainless believers?"
"Wu Qiming" closed his eyes and didn't even look at Luda Dao: "How do you know that they have been deceived?" ”
"You haven't thought that if what I said is true, and you haven't thought that my people have not been deceived, and you try the case with the mentality that I must be a criminal, then what you get must be the answer that I am guilty."
"You don't talk about your own prejudices, in fact, you have already confirmed your psychological prejudices, if you change your mentality, maybe you will understand why those people believe me, everything is not necessarily fake, haven't you thought that I may really be the savior?"
"Or, if I put the other way, don't you have any hope that there really will be a savior?"
Ruda was stunned when he heard this, and a deep sadness appeared in the depths of his eyes.
How can anyone in this day and age not want a savior, but does that really exist?
And at this time, Li Muhua pushed open the door and walked in, the sadness in Luda's eyes quickly disappeared, he turned to look at Li Muhua and said: "No wonder this guy can deceive so many people, it does seem that there are two brushes." ”
"No criminal like him is simple, their demagogic methods are often beyond your imagination, otherwise there would not be so many people deceived." Li Muhua replied, but he himself knew that "Wu Qiming" would only be more difficult than the person he said.
After speaking, Li Muhua turned his head to look at "Wu Qiming" and said, "If I were you, I wouldn't say this to try to confuse us." ”
"Bewitched? What makes you think I'm going to bewitch you? Wu Qiming said with a smile.
Ruda said angrily: "This guy is too arrogant. ”
As he spoke, he wanted to do it, which is also a characteristic of the post-mechanical war degenerate era, the original war era order gradually collapsed, although the Alliance Executive Division did not allow it on the surface, but most people would use this kind of interrogation behavior in private.
This method is simple and crude, but it is extremely effective.
As soon as Ruda stood up, "Wu Qiming" flicked his wrist, and the handcuffs on his wrist had already come to his hand, and the chain straightened and pulled Luda back to the seat.
Even Li Muhua didn't see what was going on, and he couldn't help but glance at "Wu Qiming" again.
Li Muhua didn't know if it was his own delusion, he always felt that the person in front of him seemed to be caught by them on purpose.
"Wu Qiming" took a deep look at Lu Dadao and said: "Young people must be patient. ”
Ruda then became even more angry and scolded, "Do you think this little trick is of any use? Wait for me to untie it, and you will receive it. ”
Li Muhua shook his head, took the key to untie Luda's handcuffs, and then patted Luda on the shoulder and said, "I'll talk to him." ”
Hearing this, Luda took a deep look at "Wu Qiming", and before leaving, he didn't forget to threaten "Wu Qiming" with his eyes.
After Luda left, Li Muhua slowly spoke: "Please prove to me, how can you save this world?" ”
