Chapter 102 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou consciously walked around the community park for a long time, and finally saw a patch of lawn that was clearly different from the surrounding lawns.
It's a circular mark, and the grass within this area is flattened. You can tell at a glance that something was placed here before, and this must be the spot.
Apart from this place, he didn't see any other similar traces in the entire park. In that case, he would go and move the sculpture back later to try it out.
I wandered around the neighborhood for a long time, but there was nothing unusual. I didn't see any evil spirits, and no residents were causing trouble. And those players I saw in the square earlier...
He hasn't seen any of them yet, not even Yao Mo and Lian Yushan. Is he planning to hide until the dungeon automatically ends, and he gets kicked out of the dungeon for failing to clear it?
He stood on the road, looked around, and surveyed the area within his sight, but found nothing.
Somewhat disappointed, Lin Leyou walked towards the gate. The captain was yawning as always. Looking at the gate, the mist outside looked light and harmless.
But... once you go inside, you'll probably know what's going on.
Lin Leyou suddenly wondered if the evil spirits outside would attack him if he went out and entered the mist.
If he catches one or two of them, can he kill them to get points and item cards?
The captain noticed his odd behavior and glanced at the time. "You're still on duty? Is something the matter?"
Lin Leyou said, "I walked around the neighborhood several times, and nothing happened. I was thinking about the sculpture that was moved outside the neighborhood, and I wanted to bring it back to take a look. I was a little curious."
The captain waved his hand, "Go on, go on, the evil spirits outside can't hurt you."
Lin Leyou: "What if I fight them?"
The captain was silent for a moment, then said, "As long as you can hit them, even killing one is good; every one you kill is one less to kill."
Lin Leyou nodded, "Then I'll go out and give it a try."
He walked to the gate, slowly approached the trash can, and then plunged into the fog.
Visibility in the fog was only about half a meter, but fortunately he could still see the trash can clearly. He slowly took two steps forward and saw the statue, which was said to be made of steel plates, faintly visible in the fog. It was very beautiful, but not very big.
At first glance, it looks like some kind of performance art. Upon closer inspection, it is a decent work of art. But upon even closer inspection, you can see that it is a human-shaped sculpture, and it is in the shape of a girl.
Not many people can tell from its appearance, and even if most people see that it is humanoid, they won't think too much about it.
Everyone probably thinks this is just a sculpture with an artistic flair, but...
Regardless of what others think, Fan Qing should be able to see it, after all, this is the daughter she was extremely jealous of who stole all of her husband's affection.
Lin Leyou had previously thought that Liu Rongping might have realized something was wrong with his wife, which was why he was being extra nice to his daughter. But after seeing this sculpture, he had some other thoughts.
Could Liu Rongping really have strange thoughts about his daughter? If so, he can be a little harsher when he takes action later.
He looked at the sculpture carefully and found that it was indeed broken, and the head was broken. He looked around the sculpture and searched in the trash can.
Sure enough, we found the sculpture's head inside. It wasn't dirty at all, and the trash can was clean with no other trash in it.
He took the head out and slowly reassembled the damaged sculpture in the mist.
However, to actually fix it, some tools are needed; he can only place it on by hand, not actually fix it.
Moreover, although the sculpture doesn't look very big, it's made entirely of steel plates, so it still has some weight to it.
He tried to move it, but could only move it at a snail's pace. It seemed that he really couldn't bring it back by himself. In that case, he would just take the head back with him.
The statue is strangely damaged. Even if someone vandalized it, it shouldn't be at the top, right? Could it have been secretly vandalized by that jealous mother of her daughter?
He carried the head back to the security room.
The captain glanced at it, "What you're holding..."
Lin Leyou said, "It's the part that fell off the sculpture. Can we put it in the security room first? The rest is too big; I can't move it by myself."
Captain, "Leaving it here is fine, but no one will follow you out to move the statue. What are you going to do?"
Lin Leyou handed the things to the captain, and after a moment of silence, asked, "Captain, can't you come out with me? It's just by the gate of the residential area, there shouldn't be any problems."
The captain pondered for a moment, then shook his head. "Just in case, I can't go out."
Lin Leyou suddenly thought of something, "Then... will the community hire temporary security guards?"
The captain was taken aback. "Temporary security guard?"
Lin Leyou: "Yes, the situation is very critical now, and Captain, you haven't slept in a long time, have you? If this continues, you might not be able to hold on..."
"Besides... there are only two patrolling security guards. If something happens to another one... we'll have to add some of our own personnel."
The captain stroked his chin. "I support hiring temporary security guards, but you can't completely trust everyone in the neighborhood. Can you find someone you can trust?"
Lin Leyou was taken aback. "Why?"
The captain touched his hair. "What else could it be? Of course, it's because all the residents in the neighborhood could be evil spirits in disguise."
"Some evil spirits don't become residents; they hide and wait for an opportunity to kill. But some of the more cunning ones become residents and stay in the community. They are very good at acting, and you can't tell they're different at all. There have been cases before where evil spirits became security guards, and the result was..."
Lin Leyou: "I see... What if I could find someone I can trust?"
Captain, "If you can vouch for me, of course you can."
Lin Leyou said, "Okay, I'll go talk to him about it later. If there are no problems, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."
Captain: "No problem."
As Lin Leyou was about to go on patrol, the captain suddenly asked, "Are you going to repair the statue?"
"yes."
He was taken aback, not expecting the captain to bring this up on his own initiative.
Lin Leyou, "Captain, you..."
Captain, "The security room has a full range of tools. You can use these tools after the statue is moved in."
you……
Lin Leyou blinked and nodded casually, "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Captain."
He continued walking into the residential area without making a sound. When it was time to get off work, he did not linger outside or go to the supermarket to buy anything. Instead, he quickly went home.
When he got home, he saw that Xue Rui was still sleeping, so he didn't wake him. After washing up, he went back to his room to sleep. He was very tired and decided to wait until he woke up before dealing with anything else.
When he groggily woke up, he subconsciously sniffed and smelled the aroma wafting in from outside. Although it was just the smell of simple food, he still couldn't help but wake up.
I checked the time; it was 6:30.
I slept pretty well.
Yawning, I walked into the living room. "Cooking?"
Xue Rui poked his head out from the kitchen, "Brother Lin is awake?"
Lin Leyou sat down in the restaurant to wait for her meal. "Hmm, I'm awake."
Xue Rui quickly brought the freshly prepared food to the table. "You can eat now. Brother Lin woke up at just the right time."
Lin Leyou rubbed his stomach, which was quite rumbling with hunger, and said, "Let's eat and talk."
Xue Rui quickly sat down.
“I’ve heard some things that are related to a mother and son living in Building 1.”
He told Xue Rui in detail about the family of three, including the deceased Liu Rongping, his wife Fan Qing, and their daughter Liu Wenwen, which he had previously collected information about.
Xue Rui: "Then we can confirm that Liu Rongping is the evil spirit BOSS, right?"
Lin Leyou nodded, but he still seemed a little hesitant. "I feel like something's not right, but I can't quite put my finger on it. What about you?"
"Perhaps it's because everyone knows the identity of the evil boss, but they haven't found his last general yet?"
"That's also a problem, but my gut feeling tells me that's not the reason."
Xue Rui thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "Brother Lin, it seems like a lot of the things you know were told to you by the security captain. He knows so much..."
Lin Leyou nodded, "Yes, I also think the captain knows a lot, but he is the captain, so it's normal for him to know a lot. I'm just a little curious why he didn't tell the other security guards before."
“He emphasized several times that he would have forgotten if you hadn’t brought it up, and that you reminded him of it.”
Xue Rui subconsciously wondered, "The captain must be very strong, so why didn't he have the other security guards watch the gate and instead went into the neighborhood to search for and kill the evil spirits?"
Lin Leyou shook his head, "It's probably because the task of opening the gate is quite important, so we can only..."
Xue Rui said, "But there should have been more than one security guard in the guard booth at the beginning, right? That means the captain wasn't watching the gate 24 hours a day. It feels like the captain is hiding something from us."
Lin Leyou, "You're right, but I can't think of anything either..."
Xue Rui: "The security captain said he encountered that evil boss, but he only hit it three times with a stun baton. He was momentarily stunned by the evil boss's scream and then it escaped?"
Lin Leyou: "Yes, this shows that this evil ghost BOSS is still very strong. At least all the evil ghosts I have encountered so far have only needed one hit to knock them out."
Xue Rui: "Then we need to make preparations."
Lin Leyou suddenly said, "I told the captain that we need to recruit temporary security guards. Would you like to give it a try? If you pass, you can get a uniform and a stun gun."
