Chapter 174: The Task is Detailed

Anyway, when Bai Zhimo was talking to Zhao Yan 'cordially and friendly', the old ghost suddenly interjected into the conversation between them, took the conversation from Bai Zhimo, and chatted with Zhao Yan.

The old ghost and Zhao Yan have known each other for a long time, and Zhao Yan seems to know the identity of the old ghost, at this moment he got the hint of the old ghost, so he let his city guards continue to patrol, while he stayed.

The three of them helped up the table and bench that had been knocked down by the strength of Bai Zhimo and Chen Nan just now and put them in position, and then the three of them sat down together.

The old ghost shouted to the shop, "Old Yangtou, come to a pot of tea, we have to talk about something!"

Then, the old ghost quietly asked Zhao Yan, who was sitting opposite him,

"What's the matter? Don't take a break for the New Year?"

And at this time, Zhao Yan finally came back to his senses from the old ghost's words just now, he didn't expect that Bai Zhimo actually joined the Extreme Freezer, and he joined as a second-order sequencer!

Zhao Yan, who knew something about the Extreme Freeze, knew that the recruitment requirements for the Extreme Freeze were extremely strict, and each member must be a senior third-order sequencer, and he also needed to have a skill, but he didn't expect to make an exception for Bai Zhimo now.

Therefore, on the premise of knowing Bai Zhimo's identity as a blood chef, Zhao Yan is also more and more determined in his heart to befriend Bai Zhimo, this kid's absolute future is limitless!

At this moment, Zhao Yan was sitting opposite the old ghost and was in good spirits, ready to deal with the conversation with the next person, but when he heard the old ghost's question, he couldn't help but have a bitter face, and said helplessly,

"Mr. Ghost Knife, you don't know! Recently, something strange happened in this part of Nancheng, and more than fifty people have died one after another!"

"Isn't it normal for dead people to be dead!" asked the old ghost casually.

"It's not just the dead people, but they all die weirdly!" Zhao Yan's voice was a little low, as if he was afraid of being listened to by others!

Bai Zhimo's attention couldn't help but shift to Zhao Yan, and when he heard what they said, Bai Zhimo immediately knew that he was talking about something strange, that is, the dead man incident he was going to investigate on this mission.

Before that, he only knew that this mission involved a series of dead events, and as for how they died, he really didn't know.

"Those who died did not have a single wound on their bodies, and their skin was pale without a trace of blood, and after examination, it was found that there was not a drop of blood in their bodies, not a single drop ......" Zhao Yan's voice seemed to be deliberately low and hoarse.

Under the accent of his tone, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became a little more eerie and terrifying, Bai Zhimo even felt that the air around him was a little colder, and the cold hairs behind him stood up unconsciously.

But the old ghost was not affected in the slightest, he reached out and lifted the teapot sent by Lao Yangtou, and then placed a tea bowl in front of Zhao Yan, Bai Zhimo and himself, and poured tea.

The old ghost poured the tea while looking at the tea flowing out of the pot, and asked casually,

"After your investigation, did you gain anything?"

"I can't talk about the harvest, but there are indeed some discoveries, the first point is that the dead are all zero and first order, which shows that the strength of the perpetrator is definitely not high, and it should be around the first order!"

"The second point is that we have investigated all the crime scenes in detail and found no traces of fighting, which means that the deceased did not fight with the perpetrator before he died, which may be that they did not find the perpetrator, or it is possible that they have lost their ability to act when they found the perpetrator!"

"In response to these two points, we speculate that there are two outcomes, one is that a human commits a crime, he first uses some means to incapacitate the deceased, and then uses some special means to extract the blood of the deceased's whole body

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The suspected perpetrator may be out of control!"

"Runaway ......"

The old ghost chewed these three words in his mouth, and did not express his opinion, and then asked,

"And what's your other speculation?"

"Another of our speculations is that the god-blood creature committed the crime, this is a god-blood creature that we don't know, it can silently suck the blood from the human body, and when the human reacts and wants to resist, it finds that it has lost the ability to move!"

"Reasonable assumption, and then that's all?" the old ghost asked faintly, taking a sip of tea.

"Mr. Ghost Knife, it's not that we don't act, but there is nothing to be done, there is no way to investigate, there is no law at all in the location of the perpetrator's crime, we often only find corpses, and the number of city guards is limited, we can't protect everyone, so we can only strengthen patrols!" Zhao Yan said helplessly.

"This matter has already alarmed the Grand Commander, he has also seen the body of the deceased, and he only asked us to strengthen the inspection, but two days ago he said that this matter will soon be dealt with by someone special......"

Speaking of this, Zhao Yan's voice paused slightly, his eyes widened, and he said with some surprise,

"Ghost, Mr. Ghost Knife, you, you're not here to deal with this, are you?"

"Hmph, even if you still have some brains, of course I'm here to deal with this matter, otherwise do you think I'm so idle, I don't stay at my house for the New Year, but I'm going to run out, and ask you such a bunch of boring questions?" the old ghost snorted.

Zhao Yan was full of surprise, "Mr. Ghost Knife, it's best that you can deal with this matter, with you coming out of the horse, the murderer will definitely be captured in a few days!"

"Okay, the old man wants to hear more than that, I have basically understood the situation, what is the latest news?"

The old ghost waved his hand, he was really a little uninterested in Zhao Yan's compliment, and he was really a little indifferent to hearing such a black-faced man pat himself on the back.

"Don't say it, we have indeed made a new discovery recently, the strength of the deceased is gradually getting stronger with time, which means that the strength of the perpetrator is gradually increasing, just this morning, we have discovered the first case of the death of a second-order sequencer!"

"I've heard about it, but it seems that the situation of this second-order sequencer is a bit special?" the old ghost remembered what Old Yang Tou hadn't finished saying just now, and couldn't help but ask.

Zhao Yan didn't expect the old ghost to ask such a question, so he couldn't help but be stunned, and thought for a moment before slowly explaining,

"The case you mentioned should be the one that was discovered two days ago, the second-order sequencer was injured while hunting outside, and he is recuperating at home, and his strength is only thirty percent left, so we didn't merge him into the second-order sequencer!"

Zhao Yan glanced at the old ghost when he said this, and then continued,

"The case I mentioned this morning is a genuine second-order sequencer, who died in the backyard of his own house, he seemed to be aware of it before he died, and the traces left by him when he struggled can be seen on the ground!"

"I see!" the old ghost stroked his beard, nodded and whispered to himself.

The old ghost suddenly stopped talking, he gently took a sip of the tea in his hand, his eyes were a little drifting, as if he was thinking about something.

And Zhao Yan naturally didn't dare to disturb, he had been overwhelmed by this matter recently, and now that the Extremely Frozen One came to deal with this matter, he couldn't ask for it!

Bai Zhimo was digesting what Zhao Yan had just said, and at the same time, he couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart, he didn't expect to encounter such a strange case when he was on a mission for the first time.

The perpetrators can silently suck the blood of the human body completely without harming the slightest flesh and skin, and these people have no power to resist, just think about it

People shudder!

"It's better to see than to hear, if you have time, why don't you take the old man to see the first second-order deceased, how about it?" The old ghost didn't know when he ended his contemplation, and said to Zhao Yan with a deep groan.

Zhao Yan immediately replied loudly, "Of course there is no problem, I have cooperated with your old actions more than once before, and there will naturally be no problem this time, please come with me!"

As he spoke, Zhao Yan had already stood up and made a gesture of invitation to the old ghost and Bai Zhimo.

The old ghost also stood up with Zhao Yan, and he shouted loudly into the door of the store, "Old Yangtou, let's go first!"

As he spoke, he walked out in the direction led by Zhao Yan, and Bai Zhimo naturally followed behind him, looking at the old ghost standing up and leaving directly, Bai Zhimo pouted slightly,

Why invite yourself to breakfast, you don't pay for him at all, but the words are quite beautiful!

Suddenly, as if the old ghost remembered something, he turned his head and said to Bai Zhimo with a smile,

"I'll spare you kid once today, otherwise the old man will definitely watch how you ate the five oil cakes and three pea flowers, hehe~"

Listening to the old ghost's words, Bai Zhimo's face suddenly darkened, because he thought that he couldn't eat so much, after all, he ordered so many things just to take revenge on the old ghost!

The old ghost didn't pay attention to Bai Zhimo's reaction at all, and in the laughter, he had already strode forward, and Zhao Yan immediately followed, showing him the way behind him.

Bai Zhimo glanced at the oil cake and bean curd behind him that were thrown out and landed on the ground in the battle just now, and couldn't help but pout, and took two steps to keep up with the old ghost and Zhao Yan in front.

Under the guidance of Zhao Yan, about a quarter of an hour later, they came to a mansion facing the street, and there were two city guards standing guard in front of the door.

"Zhao Dutong!"

Zhao Yan replied, and then led the old ghost into the mansion under the suspicious gazes of the two city guards.

Walking into this mansion, Bai Zhimo immediately heard a poignant cry of a woman, and immediately reacted that it should be the relatives of the deceased.

"This guy who looks dead has a good family!" said the old ghost with a smile as he looked at the decoration of the house.

"What I do outside is a desperate livelihood, so I earn a little more, but once something happens, these things outside my body will come to naught!" Zhao Yu sighed with a little feeling.

The old ghost glanced at Zhao Yan with some surprise, but did not answer his words.

Passing through the main hall, they came directly to the backyard of the mansion, and then they saw a corpse in the middle of the courtyard, he was wearing a plain white clothes, neatly tied, and seemed to be practicing martial arts in the courtyard when he died!

"Have you asked his family? Can you determine the specific time of the crime?" the old ghost turned his head to Zhao Yan next to him and asked.

"The deceased's name is Li Tianlai, we have asked his wife, he came to the backyard to practice martial arts at the fifth watch, this is a habit he has developed for many years, and when his wife called him to eat at dawn, he found that he had died in the backyard, the body was not stiff, and he should not have died for too long!"

Zhao Yan responded to the old ghost's words perfectly, and he had obviously interrogated these questions carefully.

"Did you hear any strange noises coming from the backyard in the middle of this?"

"No, but when his wife got up to cook, he didn't hear Li Tianlai's shouts in the backyard practicing martial arts, he must have been killed at that time!"

The old ghost nodded and stopped asking, but slowly paced to the deceased, and looked around his corpse carefully......
