Chapter 227 Old acquaintance



"Send someone here, quickly...something's wrong here!"

"Okay, we are transferring the call. Please describe the current situation in detail. Have you read the relevant tips we distributed? Please be sure to remain calm when encountering such a situation. Many alien species want to see panic and pain."

"I know, I know...that's why I called."

"Okay, we have sent someone out. Please describe the current situation briefly and make sure you are in a safe environment. If the other party has special intentions towards you, please stay calm, make sure you are in an area with a lot of people, and wait for rescue. We will arrive as soon as possible, don't be afraid."

"I know... I am safe now. The man hasn't found me yet. I am hiding in my own cellar now. He doesn't know this place..."

"Excellent, please describe your current situation."

"Okay, okay..."

There was a pause on the other end of the phone, as if he was adjusting his breathing.

Soon, the voice came again: "I went out last night, went to the bar... to drink. Then I met that man. He was very nice to me, ordered a lot for me, and looked pretty good. I thought he was a rich young man, but then he asked me to take him home. I was drunk at the time, so I took him back..."

"When I woke up this morning, I found that man standing in front of the mirror. I thought he was looking in the mirror, but then I followed the mirror and saw his movements. He was not looking in the mirror at all, he was... he was..."

There was another burst of rapid breathing on the other end of the phone.

Operator: "Please calm down, don't rush, stay rational."

"Okay, okay... I noticed that he wasn't wiping his face, but picking his eyeballs, digging them out of his head..."

"If that was all, I would have thought he was a flawed person. But later, I found that he seemed to be smearing something on himself. As he smeared, his face melted like a candle, and the flesh and skin flowed out little by little, revealing what was inside."

"I saw it. It was wood, khaki wood! He's not a person, he's a puppet!"

Accompanied by this slightly panicked voice.

Bai Ling sat in the passenger seat and pressed the record button on his phone.

He is currently using Luo Hongzhe's mobile phone.

Next to him, Luo Hongzhe was driving, but his attention was focused on the back seat of the car.

In the rearview mirror, Red Spider was nibbling on Lan Kong's fingers bit by bit, as if he was chewing a dried radish.

Noticing Luo Hongzhe's gaze, Red Spider laughed.

She put Lan Kong's arm down, tilted her head towards Luo Hongzhe and said, "Do you want to eat too?"

As she spoke, she grabbed Lan Kong's arm and handed him to Luo Hongzhe in front of the giant monster whose face was twisted with pain.

This action scared Luo Hongzhe so much that the steering wheel in his hand became unstable and he almost crashed the car into a car next to him.

"No, no, no, no, thanks!" he said loudly. "Thank you, thank you for your kindness!"

Beling next to him glanced at Starscream.

The mist spread and condensed into a "slap" and hit Starscream on the head: "Stop playing."

Starscream's head was slapped down by Bering, and he nodded on the chair in front of him: "Oh."

She sat back down bored and started thinking about how to deal with Lan Kong next.

Bai Ling pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Luo Hongzhe: "What do you think?"

Luo Hongzhe was attracted by Bai Ling's voice and subconsciously said, "Ah? Oh, are you talking about this mission?"

As if his professional field was mentioned, Luo Hongzhe couldn't help but frowned: "To be honest, I can't tell anything. But I guess the people stationed here are probably not employees of the Countermeasures Bureau headquarters. Although she has been emphasizing calmness, under normal circumstances, our people in the Countermeasures Bureau would not say so much, and we should not let the parties go to areas with large traffic flow..."

You have to know that abnormal events are not normal alarms or dispute resolutions, they are truly life-threatening things.

Under such circumstances, if the person involved brings the monster into a complex area with a large flow of people, the original "normal" level may be upgraded to the "dangerous" level...

Therefore, Luo Hongzhe concluded that this person was probably not someone sent by the headquarters, but a half-baked one.

Bai Ling was playing with his phone and said calmly, "Yes, this is not someone from our headquarters."

"After all, these recordings were found from the phone in the house, and the results of the previous investigation on this phone have also appeared," Bai Ling looked at the screen, "All the signals sent by this phone were intercepted, and it was also connected to a special number. This means that no matter who she calls, it actually leads to only one place in the end."

Hearing this, Luo Hongzhe was stunned for a moment.

Then he was horrified: "In other words, the monster even modified the victim's phone so that it could only dial its own phone number? And the operator before was actually the monster calling the victim?!"

Thinking of this, Luo Hongzhe couldn't help but put himself in the other person's shoes.

I thought it was a safe call for help, but later I found that help was not coming. At this time, the operator on the phone needed the person to provide more detailed information and guarantee that help would arrive immediately...

And that might just be a way for the monster to play a trick on the poor person? !

There was no emotion in Bai Ling's voice: "Yes, our enemy this time is quite smart. Moreover, he is probably an 'artist' - compared to other alien species, his methods are undoubtedly more complicated and twisted."

"In my opinion, there is only one person who would do this."

Seeing the car parked somewhere, Bai Ling rolled down the window and looked at the apartment in front of him: "We're here."

Luo Hongzhe subconsciously locked the car and said, "Is this the location of the crime?"

Bai Ling tapped his phone: "If the message I sent you is correct, then this is it."

Throwing the phone to Luo Hongzhe, Bai Ling opened the back door and then picked up Red Spider, who was shaking with his hands on his knees.

Red Spider didn't struggle in the air, but just frowned and looked at the apartment: "It smells familiar."

Putting Red Spider on the ground, Bai Ling said unhappily, "You must be familiar with it. If you are not familiar with it, then I will be more suspicious."

After brushing off the non-existent dust on himself, Starscream turned his head to look at the rear driving position: "What about that guy?"

She was talking about Lankong.

Bai Ling hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Whatever you like."

You can eat it or play with it.

Bering had no mercy on the crazy monster.

Starscream put his hands behind his back to support the back of his head. "Alright, I had some ideas to experiment with alien species. Now it's not bad to have an experimental sample. Anyway, that guy is tough."

Luo Hongzhe, who was standing next to them, listened to the conversation between the two people, but remained silent, watching their conversation with his eyes and nose.

Soon, several people walked into the apartment.

Soon, someone stopped them at the door of the apartment: "What are you doing? There was a case here not long ago, and no one is allowed to enter now!"

Facing the person who intercepted them, Luo Hongzhe took out a small notebook from his pocket before Bai Ling and handed it to the man.

After the man took a look, his face suddenly changed. "So you are from the Countermeasures Bureau. Sorry to trouble you. Please come in. We have been waiting for you for a long time."

As he said this, he led the three people into the apartment. As they walked, he said, "We still need your help in this case. Hey, we are all ordinary people here. We really don't have any experience in handling special cases..."

Luo Hongzhe quickly said, "No, no."

Then the two of them walked to the front and began to check the details of this mission and record the files.

Bai Ling and Red Spider stood behind and walked forward slowly.

When passing by a house, Bai Ling paused slightly.

Starscream next to him almost bumped into Bai Ling: "What are you doing?"

Bai Ling ignored Red Spider who was slapping his arm, just glanced at the house number, and then continued walking forward.

After thinking for a while, he asked Starscream: "Tell me, as a detective, if you knew who the murderer was in advance, and now you need to start a thrilling deduction, which may even turn into a secret room similar to 'Snowstorm Manor', what would you think?"

Starscream was a little confused: "What's a 'snowstorm' or something? A villa? Are we going to a villa? Is it fun there? Is there an 'origin' there?"

Bai Ling ignored her.

In fact, the person he was asking was not Starscream.

And in the empty air beside.

After a moment, the witch's voice was thoughtful: "You mean, it may soon become an isolated island of 'Snowstorm Manor'?"

Bai Ling nodded slightly.

After getting Bai Ling's affirmation, the witch subconsciously rubbed her chin: "To be honest, if it were me, I would probably just wait and see what happens. After all, someone is going to die in Snowstorm Manor. If no case happens, then there is no point in establishing this self-enclosed island."

"But that's from my perspective. After all, I'm not human, and my perspective is very different from humans. Not to mention, I used to be more inclined to observe the emotions that erupt when humans face crises and the pain they suffer when they are entangled, so I guess I will join the ranks of murderers."

The witch said it very calmly.

Because she knew that as long as the oath was not completely broken, the relationship between her and Bai Ling would be peaceful.

Of course, to be more precise, it is actually "subordinate"...

But this also made her feel a little more relaxed when she spoke.

Bai Ling nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, if they are monsters, they probably want to see more of the ugliness of humans, or the despair and pain of conflicts."

"But that would be a bit too troublesome," Bai Ling sighed. "After all, it's better to keep things simple. Not to mention, if someone dies because of someone's bad taste, I'd still feel a bit uncomfortable."

As he spoke, Bai Ling stopped in front of a room.

Luo Hongzhe in front also subconsciously stopped and looked back at Bai Ling.

Bai Ling didn't hesitate for a moment and kicked open the white door in front of him.

Behind the door is a house that looks quite bright.

As the door fell to the ground with a bang, the people in the room stood blankly at the entrance, looking at Bai Ling in confusion.

"Who... who are you?" the man said stupidly, "What do you want to do?"

Bering walked right past the man and said to Starscream, "Go guard the window."

"This is necessary to ensure that our friend does not escape through the window."

The words fell.

Red Spider put on a slightly ferocious smile: "Haha."

She jumped up lightly and suddenly stepped on the ground, creating a huge hole, revealing the cement underground. At the same time, her whole body fell straight into the hall behind the entrance like a cannonball!

Amidst a flurry of noise, Red Spider leaped onto the wall next to him, and finally landed heavily next to the window using the force of inertia: "Hey!"

When Starscream's feet touched the windowsill, a pale-faced woman was looking at her stupidly.

Then the next second, the pale-faced woman was suddenly grabbed by the arm by Red Spider: "Caught!"

Um?!

The woman's face changed drastically when she heard that! Without even a moment's hesitation, she twisted her limbs into a circle like a twist, and it looked like she was going to break her arm!

And Starscream simply stretched out his hand and went straight for her chest.

The five white fingers were like a knife cutting into butter, piercing through the woman's chest without any hesitation, directly grabbing the woman's most precious "heart" and holding it tightly in her hand! Seeing that her "heart" was being pinched, the woman finally couldn't bear it anymore and knelt down on the ground.

Then, Bai Ling stepped into the hall.

The black windbreaker swept past the pit where Red Spider was standing, like a crow's feather streaking across the sky, a flock of crows covering the sky and spreading their wings, casting their shadows on the ground and covering the woman's eyes.

When I noticed there was someone standing in front of me.

The woman raised her head subconsciously.

The moment when her and Bai Ling's eyes met.

The next second, the woman screamed: "It's you?!"

Bai Ling put his hands in his pockets and said with a smile: "Hello again, 'woodcarver' Zou Ye."

"It seems that you have completely fallen into your female identity?"

As he spoke, Bai Ling glanced at the mess on the bed next to him, and said with a hint of teasing, "At least, you seem to be enjoying it?"

The words fell.

The woman...or rather Zou Ye suddenly raised her head and stared at Bai Ling.

There seemed to be flames of hatred in her eyes.

With the feeling of powerlessness as his heart was being squeezed, Zou Ye's voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth: "I thought you were dead... I didn't expect that you would be so lucky..."

Hearing this, Bai Ling just smiled and said, "It seems quite regrettable that I didn't die. However, I originally thought that you would fall to Tartarus and listen to the call of your heart."

"Now it seems that someone has tampered with your mind?" Bai Ling raised his eyebrows. "Otherwise, with your strength, you can't resist the spiritual imprint I left behind. You know, even Red Spider can't do this."

"Now I'm beginning to wonder who did this."

Grabbing Zou Ye's cheek, Bai Ling said calmly: "Why don't you reveal everything, and I will let you enjoy the happiness of being a woman. This is also a happy ending, isn't it?"

In his voice.
