Lu Jiamu has a condition: he was born lacking the emotions of ordinary people.

So when his best friend had a mental breakdown, died mysteriously, and left him a diary filled with bizarre garb...

Chapter 126

Chapter 126

Lu Jiamu was sitting close to the gate, and he ran out directly after he shouted. The Internet cafe was instantly in an uproar, and many people stopped playing games and watched vigilantly.

His behavior was so realistic and confusing that other people in the Internet cafe didn't have time to think about why he, an adult, was afraid of having his ID checked.

Yu Leng was sitting at the counter, staring at the computer and spreadsheets in a daze, but after hearing Lu Jiamu's voice, he immediately caught up with his thoughts. He stood up and said solemnly, "Don't play around, the Internet police are really here! Those who don't have ID cards should get out quickly and come back after the Internet police leave! If you are caught, you will be sent to school and your parents will be asked to come! Don't play around, don't play around! The seats are reserved for you. If you are caught, no one can play anymore!"

There were bursts of joyful whistles in the Internet cafe, and many adults laughed with glee.

As soon as Yu Leng started to shout at people, all the minors in the Internet cafe stood up. When they heard that there were still places reserved for them, they no longer had any concerns and immediately scattered and ran out.

However, in the corner of the Internet cafe, a boy just looked up at them, then raised one corner of his mouth, unmoved.

He was different from those rabble. Although he was not yet an adult, he came to the Internet cafe by stealing his brother's ID card and was not afraid of being checked at all.

This ranked match has reached a critical moment, so I must let down my teammates no matter what!

The boy spat the gum in his mouth onto the table and continued to concentrate on the game.

Lu Jiamu just finished yelling and took the lead to run out. After walking around outside for a short circle, he ran back to the Internet cafe through the back door. He stood at the door and winked at Yu Leng inside.

Yu Leng shouted at the minors to hurry up and looked at each seat with a frown.

In front of the computer in the corner, the boy's character was quickly besieged and beaten to a low health, with his life hanging by a thread. The boy nervously gripped the mouse.

But at this critical moment, the computer screen seemed to have an unstable electric current, and layers of color ripples spread out, affecting his vision.

The boy was about to get angry when suddenly there was another "ding dong" sound and a dialog box popped up on the desktop: [Do you know that playful children will be punished?]

With this incident, the boy’s role is game over.

He angrily clicked the small fork to close the conversation: "Network Admin, what a crappy monitor you have!"

He just clicked on the dialog box, and a new dialog box popped up: [Do you know that children who play too much will be punished? ]

The boy ordered the fork again.

But the computer quickly popped up many new dialog boxes:

[Do you know that children who play too much will be punished?]

[Do you know that children who play too much will be punished?]

[Do you know that children who play too much will be punished?]

New dialog boxes kept popping up, piling up on top of each other like flies that couldn't be driven away.

Soon the entire computer desktop was filled with messages, and he could see nothing but these dialog boxes, making him unable to even see his fallen character, let alone apologize to his teammates and start the next game.

The boy wanted to delete all these damn dialog boxes, but he couldn't delete them all at once.

He was extremely angry and shook his mouse trying to shout at the network administrator.

But he didn't shout out.

He suddenly felt as if something stung the hand holding the mouse, and he cried out in pain.

The boy subconsciously wanted to take his hand off the mouse immediately, but he found that his hand was firmly stuck to the mouse by some invisible thing and could not be pulled off.

What's going on? What happened?

But he didn't have time to figure out the answers to all this. The pain was much faster than his thoughts, and it spread throughout his body in an instant. He felt like he was going to explode.

Before the shout for the network administrator could even form, the sound got stuck in the throat and turned into a sharp scream: "Wa ...

So painful... so painful...

The boy had only one thought in his mind at this moment: something was on the mouse! It was causing him pain!

He heard an old and eerie voice whispering in his ear: [Do you know that playful children will be punished? Hehehe.]

The boy felt intense pain tearing at every nerve and piece of flesh.

It hurts so much, so much... my whole body is cramping...

His eyes were bloodshot and he tried hard to turn his head to look at other people, but he couldn't even do it.

Who will save me?! Who will save me!

The netizens in the internet cafe nearby heard the screams and looked over. They saw the boy twitching all over, his pants were wet, and his expression was extremely painful, but his hand was pressed tightly on the mouse, not letting go. They were all stunned for a moment.

No one knew whether he was joking or what he was doing.

Lu Jiamu and Yu Leng also followed the screams and saw his strange behavior.

The Wheel of Time gave a hint that the Electromagnetic King was on his way to attack. Could it be...

A young man next to the boy reached out his hand and wanted to pat him: "Little brother, why are you..."

"Get out of the way! Don't touch him!"

But the young man's hand had already reached the boy's shoulder, and then suddenly it stuck to it strangely, or was sucked to the boy's shoulder.

The young man whimpered before he could finish his words, and began to convulse, with such force that he knocked over the paper cup in front of him.

The strange thing was that his whole body was convulsing and shaking violently, but he couldn't move the hand that was patting the boy away.

"Don't touch them! Don't touch them! They're getting electrocuted!"

The people in the Internet cafe were so frightened by the scene that they quickly hid far away.

Although they didn't understand how electric shock happened, they knew from common sense that they shouldn't touch someone who was electrocuted.

Lu Jiamu rushed towards the boy and the young man, picking up a swivel chair along the way: "Turn on the power!"

Yu Leng nodded, picked up all the keys he could see and ran out.

Lu Jiamu took two steps forward and used all his strength to smash the swivel chair in his hand at the two men.

The chair hit the boy's leg accurately, and the boy's body tilted down, but his hand still did not leave the mouse.

The chair also stuck to him.

Lu Jiamu picked up another chair and threw it over, but it still failed to knock the man away.

The two men had already been foaming at the mouth and were silent, and a burnt smell was spreading in the air.

The mouse held by the boy had also been deformed, as if it had melted.

All the computer screens started to go haywire, some went black, and the lights started to shake and flicker.

Tiny snake-like electric currents crawled in the air, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

The old and cold laughter spread out in layers: [Hehe, hehe, hehe, hehe~ Bad boy, there will be punishment~]

The light tube began to explode in all directions with the boy as the center.

Its invisible claws seemed to be reaching out from the computer, and laughter lingered in the Internet cafe: [Hehehe, hahaha~]

Seeing this scene, Lu Jiamu turned around and ran out of the Internet cafe.

Yu Leng has found the electrical box, but he doesn't know which one is the key. He is trying one by one, but has not yet opened the box.

Lu Jiamu was afraid that he would be electrocuted when he turned on the switch, so he patted him and said, "There's no hope for him."

Yu Leng was sweating profusely, but his hands didn't stop moving: "Then, what should we do?"

"Let's go outside and wait for it to leave." Lu Jiamu patted Yu Leng again, "The person is already dead. Are you insulated?"

Yu Leng shook his head stupidly: "I'm not insulated."

Lu Jiamu had already started running upstairs, wanting to leave this underground black internet cafe: "Since you are not insulated, why don't you leave quickly?"

Yu Leng also figured it out, so he collected all the keys and ran upstairs with Lu Jiamu.

That thing looks pretty impressive. Both its name and the weirdness it exhibits are related to electromagnetism.

Although we still don’t know what it is, if it is powerful enough, it might be dangerous even if we just stand next to it.

Suddenly, all the lights in the corridor went out at the same time, leaving only darkness.

The other Internet cafe guests who came out later were in a very bad mood and started cursing loudly.

But other than that, there was no other sound. The old voice that had been laughing sinisterly before suddenly stopped when the lights were turned off.

In the underground passage, only the emergency escape sign was still emitting a bright green light.

Could it be that... the circuit breaker finally tripped automatically?

After Yu Leng caught up with Lu Jiamu, he stopped and asked breathlessly: "Did the circuit breaker finally trip?"

Lu Jiamu pressed his fingertips against the wall, stared at the sign and shook his head: "Not like it."

If the Internet cafe could have automatically tripped the circuit breaker, it would have done so when the two people were electrocuted.

Moreover, the monster's arrogance didn't seem like it could be stopped so easily.

"Let's go out first."

They walked along the emergency escape signs for a while, and when they were about to reach the ground, they saw several flashlights. Someone was waiting up there.

The other party discovered them and shone a flashlight on each person's face one by one.

Soon, a voice from the intercom buzzed in: "What's the situation? Report the situation."

The man on the other side shone the flashlight in their faces again, seeming a little rude, and then said, "Survivors found, over."

"very good."

This arrogant attitude is very annoying.

One of the customers in the Internet cafe snorted and turned to go back, but found that the way back was blocked by another group of people: "There is no one downstairs anymore."

The flashlight was shone on the face of the person who wanted to leave: "Don't leave, please cooperate with our investigation."

The flashlight once again deliberately shone back and forth on their faces, making it impossible for them to open their eyes.

Lu Jiamu moved aside calmly, avoiding the impolite light.

After getting used to the darkness, he saw a group of people coming down from above wearing black overalls, their pockets were bulging, as if something was stuffed in them. Some of them even had some random items like walkie-talkies hanging on them.

The leader was a man in black, holding something in his hand. Judging from his movements, it looked like some unknown weapon.

As if she noticed that he was looking at them, she immediately shone a flashlight in his face: "No one is allowed to leave."

Lu Jiamu stretched out his hand to block the light, indicating that he didn't want to leave.

The man walking in front asked slowly, "Did you see anything unusual or strange just now?"

"Yes." A customer of the Internet cafe immediately responded, "Two people were electrocuted just now. I didn't understand what happened. You guys should go and check it out!"

"Electric shock? How did it happen?"

"I don't know! I just saw a guy sitting there quietly, and then he started to twitch. Then someone else tried to touch him, and he got the twitch as soon as he was touched."

The man in black seemed to be interested and asked, "Then how do you know it was an electric shock? And not epilepsy?"

The Internet cafe customer who was speaking said hesitantly, "No, someone else shouted."

The man in black immediately asked, "Who shouted?"

"How should I know?"

The man in black who was walking in front waved his flashlight and said, "Let's go and take a look."

The group of people came over quickly and surrounded the entrance of the Internet cafe in a well-trained manner. Then two of them entered the Internet cafe cautiously.

The Internet cafe was dead silent at this time, except for the strong smell of something burning that had not yet dissipated.

The two people who entered quickly saw two charred bodies lying in the corner of the Internet cafe.

The two men showed no discomfort when facing the charred corpses. They turned around expressionlessly before walking out: "Only two dead bodies were found, and the cause of death was consistent with expectations."

Someone sighed quietly, "Luckily our power went out quickly."

The man in black nodded, and then spoke slowly and clearly: "In order to protect the safety of everyone's life and property, I hope you can cooperate with our investigation, come with us, and tell us what happened today. Don't worry, we are a formal and legal organization. As long as you cooperate with the investigation, you will receive a subsidy of 100 yuan afterwards."
