Chapter 20: There Can Be No Peace!
"Nope."
Mu You glanced at the photo and shook his head blankly.
His tone and expression were natural, and there was nothing unusual to see.
But in fact, the moment he saw the photo, his heart almost couldn't stop beating.
Because, the figure in the photo is the one he changed into last night!
The photo appears to be a screenshot of the surveillance, and the time is a silhouette of him taken from a distance when he first entered the park last night.
Mu You thought that his movements last night were hidden enough, but he was still photographed, it seems that he still doesn't know enough about the layout of the surrounding surveillance......
Fortunately, yesterday's strengthened mental power helped him stabilize his heartbeat and breathing, and did not let him show his flaws.
The policeman seemed to ask casually, and after Mu You shook his head, he didn't ask any more.
"Try not to go out at night lately, there may be criminals in your neighborhood."
After leaving this advice, the police turned and left.
"Uncle policeman walks slowly."
closed the door, but Mu You did not go back to the house, but immediately put his ear on the wall behind the door and stole it.
His enhanced hearing allowed him to clearly hear the sound coming from the street outside the door.
A female policeman walked towards the policeman with a national character face and reported to him: "Team Zhang, the forensic examination has been examined, and the dog is indeed a wolf's tooth marks...... But there's one case that's weird. ”
"What?"
"According to the forensic doctor's judgment, it seems that the dog was first artificially broken and then disemboweled!"
"In other words, like the previous two homicides, it is another case of 'arson and arson'?"
"Yes, based on the current clues, it is highly likely that the same murderer did it...... But why did the murderer go out of his way to kill a dog? ”
"What about surveillance?"
"The surrounding surveillance was disturbed, and nothing was filmed......"
……
The two voices outside the door faded away, and all that was left was some unnutritious conversation.
"That werewolf has committed other crimes before?" Mu You was a little surprised.
The two policemen obviously did not know about the existence of the werewolves, so they could only infer that someone had 'set the wolf on the attack'.
What he didn't expect was that the werewolf seemed to have done something similar before, and it was a homigre!
Mu You hurriedly turned on his phone and searched for the recent cases that had occurred nearby.
And it turned out to be true!
Three months ago, two homicides occurred in a row in a nearby community, and the deceased were two young people who lived alone without each other. Because the methods of killing were similar, the police highly suspected that the same person was responsible, and it was finally defined as a serial murder case......
"Are these two dead young people also players?"
After reading the case report released by the police, Mu You can already guess a rough idea.
This werewolf has obviously been a 'player' for a long time.
And these two young people, most likely new players who just registered for the game three months ago, were chased and killed by werewolf players because they touched the interests of werewolves in the game, and were finally discovered by werewolves who were their identities in reality and died tragically in their respective homes......
"And what about today?"
Mu You remembered the dog corpse today.
This werewolf ran out in the middle of the night to kill a dog, and deliberately left the dog's corpse in such a conspicuous public place, for what...... Is it just to demonstrate to him?
The more Mu You thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.
There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, not to mention that werewolves and civilians in the game are originally two camps.
Werewolves make a living by hunting civilians in the game, and when other players join the village, it will inevitably make werewolf hunting more difficult, and may even kill werewolves. Then it is understandable that werewolves do not allow other players to exist nearby.
"In this way, I have become the third target of this werewolf......" Mu You frowned.
The only good news is that at the moment the other party does not know his identity and location.
However, this is only temporary, as a player, unless you don't touch the game at all, you will more or less show some differences from ordinary people.
Of course, this is also the case for werewolves, whose actions are so high-profile that it is impossible to be completely flawless.
If Mu You can find the true body of this werewolf in reality, even if he can't hit the other party head-on, he can still sneak attack, and no matter how bad it is, he can use the power of the police to directly arrest the other party.
But if he was found by the werewolf first...... That's over, what happened to those two players three months ago is what happened to him.
In short, now it's up to both of them to find who comes first.
Whoever can confirm the identity of the other party first will have the initiative!
Thinking of this, Mu You also suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
"You can't herd sheep like this in the game anymore, you have to improve your strength as soon as possible!"
In the game, you can get a lot of attribute points by leveling up, and that werewolf is now level seven, and the attributes increased by upgrading alone have already crushed him several times.
Therefore, he must also raise the level as soon as possible, at least until the next time he encounters a werewolf, he can't lag behind the other party too much in attributes.
"Boss!"
A familiar voice came, Mu You turned his head to see that Xiaoya walked into the pet store with a cup of milk tea.
"Boss, is there something going on in the community? I saw a lot of cops outside! "Xiaoya's rented house is in the neighborhood next door, and the pet store is ten minutes away.
"Nothing...... By the way, it's best not to go out at night lately, there may be criminals in the neighborhood. Mu You relayed the words of the police officer just now to her.
"Oh......" Xiaoya nodded a little blankly.
"Also, I have something to do today, I may not have time to help, you take care of the store more." Mu lobbied.
"Oh, okay......"
Xiao Ya looked at Mu You's serious face a little strangely, and always felt that he had something on his mind, but at this time, she didn't ask much, and nodded in agreement.
On the other side, Mu You went straight back to the second floor and locked himself in his room.
Take out your phone and "The Fool" starts!
Entering the game, the first thing is to use the little action power left from yesterday.
Mu You manipulated the characters and walked to the front of the Iron Fort on the south side of the village.
You came to Ironforge. The chimney on the top of the blacksmith was steaming hot, and the sound of clanging iron could be heard inside. 】
[It seems that the dwarven blacksmith has started today's business, is it going to enter immediately?] 】
Two options, yes and no.
Mu You chose 'yes'.
[You entered the Ironforge Castle, and the dwarven blacksmith welcomed you warmly and asked about your forging needs. 】
[You show the dwarven blacksmith 'Mithril.' 】
["A piece of Mithril. The dwarven blacksmith looks at you in surprise, as if he didn't expect you to get your hands on this high-grade material: "Mithril is an excellent magic casting material, suitable for most equipment crafting, you can choose to use it to create an armor to protect your fragile little body; Or you can also build a weapon, as an adventurer, how can you do it unarmed? Or do you want to use it to create something special? ”】
There are three options: [Crafting Armor], [Crafting Weapons], and [Crafting Accessories].
This option doesn't need to be entangled, Mu You now urgently needs to fight monsters to gain experience to upgrade, and what he needs most is definitely weapons, and it is best to have long-range shooting weapons such as bows and arrows, muskets, and crossbows.
Ranged strikes that reduce the risk of injury and deliver the spell effect of '100 shots'.
Mu You clicked on 'Build a Weapon'.
