Chapter 43 promise each other by example
"Why is there another one who turned himself in?"
Wu Su put on his coat and hurried to the Bureau.
Last night's ghost night trip could not be covered up. The news was explosive and instantly caused a wave of chain reaction. The Internet collapsed one after another, and countless conspiracy theories and many conjectures were flooded. With the disclosure of folk images, the supernatural authority, as a secret organization of the government, was forced to be exposed to the public's vision.
All members were ordered not to make any comments on the Internet or the media until the official decision was made.
As the highest ranking member of the combat section in M City, Wu Su had to bear most of the pressure from superiors and subordinates.
Although last night's ghost night trip was over, his workload doubled.
After working hard day and night, Wu Su's eyes were full of red blood, and his beard became messy because he didn't take care of it. It was like a weed, but he still looked energetic.
"Is it about ace again?" He lit a cigarette and asked, "just like the previous Dong Gua?"
"Not this time." Ke Zheng replied.
After thinking for a while, he still didn't seem to find any suitable adjectives, and said with a complex expression:
"Well... Anyway, brother Wu, you'll know when you go."
Wu Su: "
He glanced suspiciously at his vice captain. Finally, he didn't ask anything, but walked in the direction of the other party's fingers.
As soon as he opened the door of the interrogation room, Wu Su gave a subconscious meal.
The interrogation room is not big. The light above is cold and dazzling. The pattern is very simple and has a monotonous cold and hard meaning.
In the middle of the room sat a tall man with simple clothes, loose and relaxed posture, extremely deep facial features, very aggressive, high eyebrows, dark eyes half narrowed, his hands on the table, and bright silver handcuffs on his pale wrists. Even though he was sitting behind the iron table with a special binding chain in his hand, he seemed to be in his own home. A disturbing sense of oppression emanated from his bones, which made people instinctively afraid.
In the other corner of the room, Wu Su recognized that the logistics department members who had helped him several times last time were sitting there.
The young man's light eyes drooped, and there was no expression on his handsome and pale face, which gave people a sense of indifference to refuse people thousands of miles away.
He seemed to deliberately choose this position in the room, neither far nor close to the man sitting behind the iron table, and always maintained a sense of vigilance.
The atmosphere in the room was so solemn that it seemed like a viscous liquid that people couldn't breathe.
I don't know why. Obviously, the two people don't have any line of sight communication, but Wu Su feels inexplicably that they should know each other.
Wu Su: "
So this weird atmosphere, what's the situation?
It seemed that he had noticed someone coming. The man sitting at the table raised his eyes. The dark pupils were as dark as an abyss and swept Wu Su carelessly.
For a moment, Wu Su felt a sense of fear from instinct hit his heart. A layer of cold sweat suddenly seeped from his back. The alarm bell rang loudly in his heart. The intuition he had struggled to cultivate for many years in the game screamed wildly in his mind.
The creepy feeling of looking directly into the abyss came, and every cell of the body was shouting to escape.
——Not people.
Obviously, the other party has no intention to converge, so that the inhuman characteristics of his body are clearly presented in front of his eyes, and he does not hide his strength and terror, just like a giant beast slowly stretching his body in a narrow room.
Wu Su suddenly sounded the alarm bell in his heart. Subconsciously, he reached out to touch the holster around his waist and asked fiercely, "who are you?"
In the face of his vigilance, the other party's response was particularly flat.
Ji Xuan raised his hand. The special shackles between his wrists made a crisp sound on the iron table. He smiled and said, "don't be nervous."
Wu Su seemed to react.
The other party's hands are shackles specially developed by the supernatural administration. They are specially designed to detain fierce ghosts who are powerful and can't be eliminated for the moment. As long as they are taken, the Yin Qi will be suppressed and will no longer have the power to harm others.
But even so, Wu Su still didn't feel at ease.
Perhaps it is because the other party's attitude is too relaxed and casual, which makes him subconsciously vigilant.
Wu Su was tense, narrowed his eyes and asked coldly:
"What's your purpose?"
Ji Xuan chuckled, "isn't my purpose obvious?"
At this time, Yezei, who was sitting in the distance, raised his eyes and set his eyes on him.
The young man's expression was still indifferent and calm, and his light eyes were as sharp as a knife. Under that line of sight, everything seemed to have nowhere to hide.
Seeing that he finally attracted the other party's attention, Ji Xuanwei imperceptibly hooked his lips and said:
"Cooperation."
"... cooperation?!" Wu Su repeated in surprise.
Ji Xuan leaned back relaxed and half narrowed his eyes: "of course."
"Are you curious about whether the ghost who escaped from the game has a leader and what is the purpose?" With a smile on his lips and deep eyes: "or... Don't you want to know the reason why ghosts walked at night last night?"
Under the man's sight, Wu Su felt cold on his back.
However, have to say that every question said by the other party is to the point.
Up to now, human beings have no idea what they are dealing with - who is their opponent? What do they want?
Those fierce ghosts who escaped from the game seem to have their own ways. Some are scattered and some are missing. Rampant supernatural events occur all over the country. There is no connection between the form and the victims, and there seems to be no law to follow. However, as a player with game experience, Wu Su always feels that there is an undercurrent surging under this situation, and there seems to be something behind it, But he had no evidence to prove his conjecture.
Now, a powerful high-level fierce ghost finally appeared in front of him, as if he knew the truth of everything.
This made Wu Su shudder - half excited and half frightened.
He took a deep breath, pulled a chair over, sat down opposite the man, and slowly asked:
"Let's start at the beginning - who is your leader?"
"Mother." Ji Xuan replied, "all fierce ghosts and monsters are the source and dominator."
His expression was especially magnanimous, as if he didn't care what shocking words he said.
Wu Su looked at him suspiciously: "when I was in the game, I never heard that the fierce ghosts had a mother."
"Low level fierce ghosts and monsters are just inferior creatures spawned by Yin Qi." Ji Xuan chuckled: "only high-level fierce ghosts will have the concept of mother and know the existence of their own source."
"What about Ji Xuan?" Wu Su frowned, "isn't he your king?"
Yezei: "
He could not bear to look straight away.
Ji Xuan said without changing his face, "yes, but the so-called king is just a substitute for his mother."
"Agent walker? Why? "
Ji Xuan's lips stirred up a smile, and a faint red flashed in the dark pupil. His voice was deep and eerie, which made people creepy:
"-- because she can't come to the world for the time being."
Wu Su's Adam's apple rolled up and down drily. He opened his mouth and asked slowly, "so, do you mean that the purpose of all these fierce ghosts is to let her come to the world? After she came to the world? What will happen? "
Ji Xuan did not answer.
He just casually knocked on the table with his fingertips and made a "aggressive" sound: "mother's domination over us comes from blood, which means that I can't and can't disclose some information to you - so you'd better choose the questions you want to ask carefully."
"All right." Wu Su took a deep breath and asked from a different angle, "you are also a high-level fierce ghost and your mother's people. Why do you choose to help mankind?"
Ji Xuan narrowed his eyes thoughtfully:
"Well... We have differences of opinion."
His eyes swept over Yezei sitting on the side without trace, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked: "she gave me an impossible task."
The atmosphere in the air became strange for a moment.
Wu Su wisely stopped questioning.
He thought for a moment and said, "the capital is closer to the core of the management than we are, and there are more capable and different people."
The branch of M city is just an insignificant part of the whole administration. It is reasonable to go to the capital to find the headquarters if you want to seek cooperation. Wu Su believes that for the man in front of him, geographical distance does not make much sense, but he came to the branch of M city for some reason, And deliberately came to the table of one of the members of the logistics department and announced "surrender".
That's strange.
Wu Su glanced vaguely at Yejia and asked in a roundabout way:
"Why do you want to cooperate with us?"
This time, Ji Xuan's smile deepened and said, "repay kindness."
The little black hand squats on Yezei's shoulder and hides under the hidden layer made by the other party for him - as the nearest ghost to Yezei, it can clearly feel the subtle changes in the other party's breath.
The cold senhan murderous spirit was almost the same as when he made up his mind to kill Ji Xuan.
The little black hand was so frightened that he didn't dare to go out. For fear of an impulse, Yejia came forward and stabbed the other party.
It wants to cry without tears.
——If I am guilty, please let the law punish me, not let me tremble between two big guys!!!
Ji Xuan looked at Yezei with a smile as if he hadn't noticed it. "I believe you humans have a saying that the grace of dripping water should be rewarded by Yongquan, not to mention the grace of saving lives."
——Of course, we have to promise each other to save our lives.
Yejia's expression became colder,
Seeing Wu Su's questioning eyes, he quietly raised his lips and replied:
"... just an accident."
Ye Jia's eyes were opposite Ji Xuan's, his eyes turned cold and dark, and slowly said, "if you give me another chance, I believe I won't make the same choice."
Wu Su: "
Wait, can you be so straightforward?
——Especially in the face of a high-level fierce ghost with unpredictable joy and anger, he can't be sure that the special shackles on the other party's hands can play a role in anger.
Wu Su looked in the direction of the man in fear, but found that the other party's rising radian of the lips expanded at the moment when ye Jia's voice fell, and a smile flashed in the depths of his dark eyes, which seemed to be in a good mood.
Wu Su: "?"
Huh? What's going on? Is my understanding of that sentence different from that of him?
He fell into doubt about his ability to understand.
However, Wu Su soon pulled himself back from his distraction. He coughed, broke some strange atmosphere in the air, and said, "in this way, I will report your demands to the superior. Before the superior makes a decision, you first..."
Ji Xuan interrupted him, "can I appoint someone to take care of me?"
"This......" Wu Su was stunned. He didn't seem to expect that the other party would make such a request.
Ji Xuan shook the shackles on his wrist, and the silver shackles jingled: "I will cooperate very much."
"I disagree." Yeka broke in without warning.
His eyes twinkled with inorganic cold light under the cold light above his head, and his voice was cold and hard, which seemed very inhumane: "he is obviously very dangerous. I think we should act in accordance with the rules and regulations, detain him in a special cell, and make a decision after confirming the accuracy of his information."
Wu Su: "
... it's so straightforward!!!!
His heart was raised again for fear that the other party would turn over, but what was more unexpected was that Ji xuansi had no sign of anger. He nodded: "good."
——Now it's Wu Su's turn to feel magic.
Are all the fierce ghosts in your game so talkative???
The door of the interrogation room was closed behind him, blocking the man's deep black eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
Wu Su stood in the corridor and felt a trance.
What happened just now was like a dream. Even now, he still felt a little incredible.
After a huge loss to all mankind, they suddenly made great progress without warning. A high-level fierce ghost who was willing to cooperate and spoke very well actually came to the door and was willing to disclose the valuable information that mankind had been looking for for for a long time, which could not appear even in his wildest imagination.
The logistics member turned to leave.
Wu Su quickly opened his mouth and shouted to him, "Yejia!"
The young man's step was a meal, half turned his face, and his cold white skin color seemed unreal in the dark. His voice was still calm: "what's the matter?"
Wu Su stepped forward, stood side by side with him, and asked curiously:
"So, how did you save this fierce ghost?"
Yejia: "... Everyone makes mistakes."
Wu Su: "?"
I don't know why, he heard a gnashing of teeth in each other's voice.
Yejia turned around, looked straight at Wu Su and said:
"Don't take him lightly. I don't think that shackle has much binding effect on him. Ghosts are good at lying, not to mention this powerful ghost. We should be alert to what he said about cooperation. He is more likely to have another plot."
Wu Su thought: "you're right. Especially now we don't know what his real purpose is. It's better to be vigilant."
"But his information is very important to us so far." He placidly patted Yejia on the shoulder: "I'll find an elder I trust to ask for advice."
Yezei: "
I seem to know who your predecessor is.
He himself is standing in front of you and giving you advice.
However, what Wu Su said is also reasonable - in the current state of mankind, the information provided by Ji Xuan is necessary.
He sighed silently.
It seems that this can only be for the time being.
However, this is not what Yejia is most concerned about now.
He turned and said, "team Wu, can you open a certificate for me?"
Wu Su: "huh?"
"I had an accident when I was dealing with the follow-up work this afternoon," Yejia said briefly to Wu Su about the shooting in the afternoon, and then added: "for a personal reason, I want to go to the police station to see the relevant report."
Although it is true that he can tear up the ghosts and go to the morgue, the police station and the morgue must be very chaotic due to the night trip of all ghosts last night. Yezei is not sure that he can find the body and relevant reports in a short time. Therefore, in order to save time and make a quick decision, it is better to go directly through the official channels.
Wu Su thought for a moment and said, "OK."
He said: "according to your description, it seems that there is something wrong with the murder. Take the instrument and remember to submit a report to me when you come back."
Yejia: "... OK."
The unexpected workload increased.
Morgue.
After last night, both the police and the forensic became extremely busy, and the morgue was overcrowded. Most of the bodies sent were sent to the freezer before they could be dissected. All the freezers were occupied, and even forced to rent the freezer to store the bodies.
The forensic intern led Yejia into one of the rented mobile refrigerators and pointed to one of the compartments: "there."
With that, she hurriedly turned and left, as if there were more work waiting for her.
Yejia was left alone in the freezer.
He walked slowly towards the body.
The clothes on the corpse had been removed, the two bullet holes on the shoulder and chest were no longer bleeding, showing a kind of frozen meat like cyan black at low temperature. His face was dead gray, his eyelids had drooped, covered the bloody turbid eyeballs, the corners of his mouth were still raised, and the stiff and crazy smile was fixed on his face.
The instrument in Yejia's hand was motionless - it was a prop he collected from the young man of the haunted house adventure, with enough accuracy.
Moreover, he did not smell the slightest Yin on this man.
It seems just... An ordinary body.
There was no trace of supernatural time on it, and even the Yin Qi fluctuation previously detected in the corridor seemed to have never appeared.
After all, after the night trip of ghosts, the residue of Yin Qi will be detected everywhere. The fluctuation may only be due to the rest of the ghosts in the building, not from the murder.
Yezei pondered for a long time and pulled out the little black hand:
"Do you smell anything?"
The little black hand shook his fingers blankly: "No."
Yezei lowered his eyes, slightly pursed his pale thin lips, and stretched them straight into a straight and cold line.
He didn't know what he was looking forward to finding.
He breathed out a mouthful of turbid air silently and turned to go out. However, before going out for a few steps, his sight suddenly fell on a nearby compartment.
By devils and gods, Yejia walked in that direction.
He reached out and pulled out a simple freezer from the compartment. With a crash, another body appeared in front of him.
The pale blood stained face and the expression of despair were cut into thin pieces.
——Thunderstorm night, bloody dress, broken pearl necklace.
As if to drive something away, Yejia closed his eyes.
The instrument in his hand made a faint drip.
Yezei was stunned, opened his eyes and looked down at the instrument in his hand.
The pointer on the dial shook, and then finally stopped at 0. It stopped ringing.
The little black hand said, "ah... Strange?"
It jumped off Yejia's shoulder and went into the vague wound on the chest and abdomen of the body. Two minutes later, it came out: "her heart is gone."
Yezei narrowed his eyes slightly, and a faint light flashed in the depths of his eyes: "do you smell anything?"
The little black hand thought for a moment and said, "well... A little, but now it seems to have dissipated."
"What is it?" Yejia asked.
The little black hand said, "it's a bit like... The taste of the soul I ate in that building?"
Yezei was stunned.
He stood by the bodies for a moment, then pushed them back and turned and walked out.
The door of the cold storage closed behind him.
The dark night once again enveloped the whole city.
Yejia's expression was very cold, like the ice cold snow that never melts all year round.
——He had never before linked his parents' experiences with games.
Less than a month ago, the game just collapsed, and the fierce ghosts and monsters hidden in it left the bondage of the game and came to the world.
He was eight when he lost his father and mother.
Fifteen years later, he entered the game.
Stepping into the night, Yejia returned to his apartment.
He walked into the door of the building, but when he was about to reach his own floor, he suddenly stopped his pace, and his voice was slightly cold: "who?"
With the sound of footsteps, the voice control light in the corridor lights up, and a tall figure appears.
It's Ji Xuan.
At the moment, he no longer covered up. His dark red eyes seemed to be slowly flowing blood under the corridor light. He slightly raised his lips and whispered:
"Good evening."
Ye Jia's men who hung on his side stroked consciously.
This was his instinctive gesture before the attack.
He narrowed his eyes and didn't answer.
Ji Xuan stepped forward with a low and gentle voice: "haven't you seen me for so long, do you miss me? Brother? "
——Previously in the residential area, the little boy turned into a smiling face and the man in front of him slowly coincided.
Yezei looked at him with an undisguised coldness in his tone:
"Get out of the way."
Ji Xuan winked at him and shook the portable shackles on his wrist. The chain in the middle had been removed and glowed with silver on his pale wrist, like two bracelets: "your superior agreed to cooperate."
Yejia repeated, "get out of the way."
Ji Xuan took out a piece of paper from his pocket as if by magic.
With a smile on his lips, a low voice and a long tail, he said, "look, they agreed to my request to appoint a guardian."
"Congratulations." Yezei hooked his lips, but there was no smile in his voice: "but I don't want to."
He had just returned from the morgue, and the previous impact had not disappeared, which made him particularly impatient.
Yezei calmly took out the key, bypassed Ji Xuan and continued to walk upstairs.
However, when they were about to pass by, Ji Xuan suddenly turned around and clasped Yezei's wrist without warning. His sudden turn trapped Yezei between himself and the wall of the corridor.
The distance between the two people narrowed in an instant, and the tip of the nose was opposite, almost only close at hand.
But yeka did not retreat.
Instead, he leaned closer and narrowed his eyes dangerously.
The tip of the sickle appeared in the palm of his hand, and the cold blade flashed a beautiful snow shimmer in the dark night, touching each other's heart.
His voice was cold: "I don't mind finishing what I didn't finish last time."
The next second, unexpectedly, the figure in front of me suddenly narrowed.
Yezei was stunned.
When he reacts, the other party has become the little boy in his memory.
He looked up with a pale and beautiful face, put his fragile neck on the blade in Yejia's hand, his Ruby eyes glittered in the light, and his lips smiled:
"Good."
The childish voice sounds a little hoarse and soft, almost like coquetry:
"... just be happy, brother."
