"I volunteered." Shen Lanzhou said with a smile, "Don't worry, Miss Helan, I'll be fine. Also, please help take care of Lily. I'll be back soon."
"Okay, I will definitely live up to your trust."
Helan stopped trying to dissuade him. She nodded, indicating that she would accept the commission.
She has a lot of experience in taking care of children.
On the other side, Shen Lanzhou instructed Lily through the encrypted channel of the contract:
[Remember to keep an eye on the "pig head" in the refrigerator and don't let her escape. If she doesn't behave, put her in a bag and spin her 365 degrees a hundred times. If she still doesn't behave, just find a cesspool and throw her away.]
"No problem, leave it to Lily! But sister, based on the plot of the novel Lily has read, if you follow along, even if you didn't kill the person, you'll eventually be blamed due to various coincidences and accidents."
Lily blinked her eyes. Having watched countless movies, she could almost predict how the plot would develop.
“Hmph…”
Shen Lanzhou smiled, but did not answer Lily's words. Instead, he said to her, "Lily, help me get the buttons on the table. This dress keeps falling down without buttons."
"Oh~" Lily walked out of the house with her short legs and took out a button and handed it to Shen Lanzhou.
The girl took it, pinned it to her chest, and looked at Li Kexin: "Lead the way."
Although the base officials have set rules prohibiting fighting and killing in order to maintain stability, due to the fact that the officials do not have strong people who can suppress the others, there are still people who are unwilling to accept the rules and commit crimes against the wind. Those who are really capable will still be beaten and killed.
But right now, this incident has such a huge impact that it has affected most of the people who are the cornerstone of the base. Whether it is the base officials, mercenary groups, or gang forces, they are all keeping an eye on the cannibalism case.
Shen Lanzhou slowly followed a group of alert guards out of the rented building, and what caught his eyes were pairs of eyes with different emotions.
Terror, anger, fear, resentment, malice...
"She is the murderer, right?!" someone in the crowd asked.
Shen Lanzhou nodded silently.
He was a murderer for sure, but he just accidentally blew up a thief's head and didn't eat anyone.
"He's just a suspect, not the confirmed murderer," Li Kexin said.
Although he really wanted to put the blame on Shen Lanzhou, due to his identity and responsibilities, he finally told the truth.
Having said that, the dense malice in the crowd pierced Shen Lanzhou like needles.
Da...da...
The sheep's hooves hit the wet cement floor, making a crisp sound.
Shen Lanzhou savored the various glances directed at him thoughtfully.
It seems that the murderer is not in the crowd.
Sadly, it seems the rule that “the murderer will always return to the crime scene to check his work” doesn’t apply to this case.
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking air behind my head.
Shen Lanzhou turned her head to avoid the stones thrown by the crowd behind her. Before she could say anything, a group of people silently threw stones at her.
This time, she didn't hide.
He allowed all kinds of stones to hit him, even overly heavy bricks, and let them hit his forehead, breaking the black robe covering his body and revealing his alien body.
A strange creature with two horns on its head and a long and wide snout, looking like both a scaly dragon and a black goat, appeared in everyone's sight.
His eyes were tightly closed, his expression was peaceful, and his body was covered with dense black seams... those were his tightly closed eyelids.
Suddenly, an eyelid on one side of the monster's cheek opened, revealing an eye with horizontal pupils.
What kind of eye was that? Looking down from above, the monster's mouth opened wide, revealing a mocking smile.
As they looked into that eye, screams were heard from the crowd. Some people covered their eyes and trembled in pain, as if they had been hit by a flash bomb, and tears flowed uncontrollably through their fingers.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Shen Lanzhou opened his mouth and smiled, his mouth full of sharp teeth and his eyelids tightly closed.
I just wanted to try to control an eye to scare these troublemakers, but I didn't expect it to be successful.
As for what would happen if she couldn't control herself and opened her eyes completely? Well... maybe the crowd would explode into beautiful fireworks, just like the thief who bumped into her earlier.
Just kidding~
Shen Lanzhou was still somewhat confident in his ability to control himself.
She casually covered herself with her hood and urged Li Kexin, who was standing motionless in front of her, in a brisk tone: "What are you doing here? Lead the way. Didn't you say you would take me back to investigate? Don't waste time."
“…”
The man didn't answer her, but walked forward. If you looked closely, you could see that his legs were shaking unnaturally.
He was terrified.
"Is it Emu?"
When passing a corner, a hoarse voice caught Shen Lanzhou's attention.
She ignored Li Kexin who was leading the way and squatted in front of the ragged old man leaning against the wall: "Uncle, do you know Am?"
The old man, his face covered in wrinkles and dust, opened his gray eyes and said, "Of course I know Am. Actually, I grew up under Am's watchful eye. Later, when I grew up, I left the village to make a living..."
Shen Lanzhou showed an interested expression: "Can you tell me in detail?"
“…”
The old man looked at her dazedly and didn't answer.
Shen Lanzhou suddenly had a sudden inspiration and mentally told Lily, "Throw down a bag of food."
Lily took out a bag of bread and threw it down from upstairs with her short legs.
Shen Lanzhou raised her hand, and the shadow turned into a silk thread that wrapped around the bread and returned it to her palm.
