Volume 1 Chapter 29 The Death of Zhong You
A cramped cell, a single bed, a toilet, an old table, a cupboard, and nothing else.
Zhong You's body was lying on the bed facing the wall, wearing a prison uniform with a string of numbers on the back.
The guards outside the cell did not follow, and the special operations team just waved their hands, and they habitually moved away slightly.
Liu Xiao did not touch the corpse directly, but slowly paced around the cell, looking around.
In addition to the fact that Su Gu is not suitable for his mission today, there is another reason, that is, his own requirements.
Two days ago, he told Ye Qu that he was willing to share the pressure for the team members, as long as his extraordinary ability was suitable, anyone who could help could be arranged.
Because he feels that only by having more contact with transcendent events can he understand more about the world.
Raised his hand and gently touched the table and the edge of the bed, but found no suspicion.
Ye Qu walked over with light steps: "There are no external injuries, and there are no traces of divinity around, it looks like sudden death, but the real cause of death is vitality failure." β
This should be the result of the inspection of the third group leader Jiu Mingjun, so that Yue Fei doesn't have to run again.
But life force failure?
This statement came out of the mouth of a physician with a strong transcendent taste, let alone a transcendent physician.
Liu Xiao gently touched Zhong You's corpse, ready to straighten him.
The hand was heavy, and the whole corpse shook slightly with the exertion.
Frightened, he immediately retracted his hand.
After death, the corpse stiffened, and it was impossible to change its posture at this time, which was also the reason why the corpse still remained in this shape after the Nine Lives Monarch came, and Liu Xiao didn't think of this when he first came into contact.
Taking two deep breaths, he put his hand directly on Zhong You's shoulder, which felt like he was pressed against a stone, cold and stiff.
It was an old corpse, emaciated and wrinkled, with the marks of time and the wind and frost left by suffering.
Liu Xiao until, in fact, this world is not as beautiful as she imagined.
I only saw the prosperous Jinluo City, but I didn't see the surrounding small villages; I only saw the closed welfare home, but I didn't know the reason for the closure; I only know that there are no beggars in the city, but I don't know where the beggars have gone.
Holding back his heart, he closed his eyes.
The world without color is covered down.
The first to appear was black.
Bottomless darkness.
It's as pure as the bottomless bottom of the world of Yequ's "Water Mirror".
Then in the depths of darkness appeared a weather-beaten human face, covered with ravines.
That's Zhong You's face.
However, this face is so thin, and the gap is so big that Liu Xiao almost didn't recognize it when she first saw it.
The face kept changing expressions, sometimes painful, sometimes joyful, sometimes crying, sometimes laughing, the expression changed quickly, but it was too far away to see clearly.
At the same time, there are some other images that also appear in Liu Xiao's field of vision.
The various images were mixed together and flickered incessantly, which not only distracted him, but also made him dizzy, unsteady on his feet, and a little nauseous.
He closed his eyes and didn't open them, but he pressed his other hand against the edge of the bed to keep himself balanced.
Cheer up and try to move the perspective to get closer to yourself, hoping to see Zhong You's situation clearly.
The field of view is smoothly pulled in.
He saw Zhong You lying on the bed with a distorted expression on his face, and what happiness and joy there was all an illusion caused by the distortion of the muscles on his face.
I saw Zhong You constantly rolling on the bed, making various distorted and weird expressions on his face uncontrollably, and at the same time, his body was also twitching, and the muscles under his skin were beating abnormally.
Liu Xiao turned her perspective to look around.
The table, the cupboard, the toilet, all of them are out of the ordinary.
The leader of the Nine Lives Monarch checked that there were no traces of divinity, so what caused him to become like this?
The surroundings are dim, it should be night, it seems that Zhong You experienced a lot of pain before he died, if it was not caused in prison, then it could only be brought in from outside the prison.
It's only now that it's attacked.
That should make sense.
No wonder the third group wants to hand the case back.
Liu Xiao thought about it, turned her vision around and returned to the bed, only to see Zhong You sitting up.
His heart pounded.
Scared the hell out of me!
But what did he sit up for?
The next moment, he found that Zhong You's skinny face was abnormally close, his skin was sallow and bloodless, and his cloudy and lifeless eyes were shining a miserable green, staring at him.
Liu Xiao subconsciously wanted to retreat, but the perspective suddenly couldn't move, and he broke free a little hard, but it still had no effect.
Then he realized that he was moving his body in reality, and the picture in history did not move.
He hurried to move time and prepare to pull away.
"Roarβ"
Zhong You suddenly grinned at his mouth, which was so thin that he almost had no lips, revealing a mouthful of black and yellow teeth, and biting down on Liu Xiao's face.
"Ahh
Liu Xiao exclaimed in surprise and bounced away, and at the same time his eyes opened, and all the pictures disappeared, only to see Zhong You's corpse still curled up on the bed face in.
Then he felt that he had hit something soft, and when he looked back, he found that it was Ye Qu senior who stabilized himself.
He breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart was still beating fast, and his breathing was a little heavy, so he reached out and stroked his heaving chest.
"Are there any injuries? I saw you had been breaking free just now, and I thought you were stuck with a corpse and trying to wake you up. β
Liu Xiao shook her head and thanked her, saying:
"No, it's just too close, and I'm scared by his expression."
"What expression, is there anything unusual?"
"Yes, Zhong You was in great pain before he died, and I saw green eyes again."
Ye Qu fell into deep thought, rubbing the bracelet on his left wrist with his right hand, and said with doubts: "I didn't find out, Su Gu didn't ask, Huiheng couldn't see it, and Yue Fei didn't check out the abnormality, what the hell is this?" β
Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, his eyes lit up, and he said to Liu Xiao: "It's not completely unconnected, the result of the inspection of the leader of the Nine Lives Monarch is that his vitality has failed, and Yue Fei has also said casually, saying that he is extremely weak and looks older than his actual age." β
Liu Xiao guessed: "This is ...... Something that provides supernatural abilities, but is consumed and overdrawn? Is there such a thing? β
"I haven't seen it, but I can't say it's completely impossible. Everything has divinity, everything is created by the gods, and the same is true of human vitality, if there is something that can transform the vitality into divinity, then it is not impossible to have extraordinary abilities
"It seems that this case is not as simple as imagined."
Liu Xiao said: "What should I do now?" β
"Inform the temple, report all the information, and you can also write what you just saw."
"Okay."
Outside the cell, Ye Qu said to the leader of the special operations team, "Notify the temple to recover the body." β
The temple needed to recover the body, indicating that it was not an ordinary case, the captain nodded and agreed, and immediately arranged it, and the prison guards were also stopped around and not allowed to approach.
The trivial matters will be handed over to the special operations team, Liu Xiao and Ye Qu walked out side by side, passing by the prisoner who humiliated Liu Xiao.
I saw that the cell door had been opened, and there was no difference in the layout inside, but the prisoner was missing, and there was a pool of blood on the floor in the cell.
Ye Qu's eyes lit up, and he looked at Liu Xiao with some surprise: "It's quite ruthless?" β
Liu Xiao keenly captured Ye Qu's expression.
Well, the prison family, people with extraordinary abilities in prison are responsible for torture, are they all psychologically like this?
He smiled and didn't speak.
"What did you do?" Ye Qu asked again.
Liu Xiao saw that his eyes were shining, and decided to tell the truth, so he pointed his finger down to the ground, and then made a downward cutting motion.
Ye Qu couldn't help but look down at the lower half of his body and said, "Why is it so heavy?" β
"Senior Ye Qu, didn't you say that almost all of the people in this prison are people who have no chance to get out again in this life? Their sins are unforgivable, and they are to blame. β
"It's lightening your load, isn't it?"
Liu Xiao didn't know what Ye Qu meant, so she didn't speak, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.
Ye Qu didn't blame, but just reminded: "Pay attention to the change of your own thinking, don't really regard yourself as a god just because you have stepped into the path of God, and thus despise ordinary people." β
"I ...... Overdone? β
Ye Qu thought for a while, and did not answer directly, but said another thing:
"Su Gu also came, and he was also this prisoner, and after going back, Su Gu cried for a week before slowly relieving himself.
"Actually, I would rather tell Su Gu: 'The prisoner who insulted you last time was punished' instead of 'That prisoner stayed in prison for the rest of his life'."
He didn't say what happened at that time, just whispered, but what Liu Xiao could imagine might be more excessive than what he encountered today.
Ye Qu continued: "All offenders should be punished, and those who repent may not necessarily have their punishment reduced, but those who do not repent must be punished severely. Ordinary people who insult others will only be punished by education and compensation, while the insult of a condemned prisoner should make him feel pain. β
Liu Xiao understood Ye Qu's predecessor's point of view, and at the same time felt that this point of view was not extreme, and his argument was based on the premise that the other party had many evil deeds.
"So I don't think it's too much, it's very much to my liking."
Liu Xiao nodded, in fact, he knew that if he looked at it in person, he might not have such a heavy hand, but in the mental picture, everything seemed to have become false, so he directly made a dead hand.
It's like a person who is usually kind and kills people like hemp in the game, and there is a feeling of "not the real world".
If it weren't for Ye Qu's seniors to stop him, he might have tortured him again, and if he knew about Su Gu in advance, he might have killed him, right?
Liu Xiao wasn't sure, but he thought he would do it.
The Special Operations Team sent the body to the temple, and the cell was sealed and no longer activated unless it was unsealed.
The case seemed to be open to the question again, and the suspicions were difficult to explain, and it was, and until the next day, the dissection of the temple provided no further clues.
However, Su Gu was very happy after knowing that the prisoner who humiliated her was castrated by Liu Xiao, of course, she was a little surprised at first.
Yue Fei was also surprised, she thought that Liu Xiao was an elegant and gentle person, but she didn't expect to do such a thing.
Liu Xiao smiled and said: "Repay virtue with virtue and repay grievances with straightforwardness." I quite agree with Ye Qu's predecessors. β
Ye Qu hurriedly shook his head: "I have never said or heard these eight words of yours, I can't afford the name of this kind of 'Great Confucian'." β
Liu Xiao smiled embarrassedly.
I copied it, too.
