Chapter 20 Chapter 20
"Eh? Is there something wrong with the village chief?"
Li Ke felt a little embarrassed because he was the only one who didn't notice it.
"Ahem, my attention was focused on Master Huang, so I didn't listen carefully. Tell me what's going on."
Xi Siling glanced at Lan Yi and Liu Huaqi.
"Come one by one? See what you have found?"
Lan Yi nodded and told his discovery first.
"For farmers, crops are everything. It's strange that the village chief didn't say a word about the strange fact that corn was growing well but didn't bear fruit."
Li Kezuo suddenly realized, "It's true! What about you, 77."
Liu Huaqi smiled and pointed at Xi Siling, "It was the last question from the senior that made me realize something was wrong. This village is not that big, right? As the village chief, how could he not know who died? He hesitated for a moment before confirming the death of Shen Ling's son. He said that he had a bad memory? Anyway, I don't believe it."
This is just the most basic, Liuhuaqi continued to make his own guesses.
"I guess the reason why the village chief Li hesitated is because of the question raised by the senior student. The answer is no. Shen Ling's son was not the last person to die, and he wanted to conceal the existence of this deceased person."
Xi Siling clapped his hands twice in satisfaction, "Indeed, I asked this question just to confirm, 77 you are amazing."
This compliment was so sincere that Liu Huaqi smiled awkwardly, "It's still the senior who asked the best question. How did the senior find out that the village chief was lying?"
Xi Siling's judgment is actually the simplest and crudest.
"77 probably hasn't come into contact with the living dead yet, 11, Xiao Ke, we have both killed the living dead before."
A hint of coldness flashed across the young man's deep green eyes, which coincided with the solemn expressions on Lan Yi and Li Ke's faces.
"If the living dead really appeared, the pig farmer and their neighbors would have been dead."
Xi Siling pointed out the cruel truth.
Is the biggest obstacle to the continuation of human civilization the existence of cats and dogs? As long as they appear, they will definitely go to harm people, whether it is stealing pigs or hitting people, this kind of behavior is something that only humans can do.
"Is that village chief Li teasing us? His professionalism is being questioned, damn it!" Li Ke finally reacted. What pigs and humans? It seemed more like some guy who didn't understand the living dead was playing tricks.
As for breaking the car window, if it wasn't a speed-type zombie, there was a possibility of escape.
Lan Yi frowned, "What is his purpose in doing this? Could it be that there are actually no living dead here?"
The living dead cannot suppress their own nature. Village Chief Li knew that doing so would attract investigation from the Institute of Supernatural Management, but he still chose the most stupid deception. No matter what his purpose is, it must not be simple.
"Be careful next time and don't eat any food or water in the village." Xi Siling knew that there was an old thief outside preparing to cause trouble, so naturally he had to be fully alert and vigilant to deal with it.
The three of them nodded in agreement at the same time. Lan Yi even took out the alcohol from his bag to disinfect himself and the Liuhuacui cup after peeling the garlic.
As Li Ke got closer, he smelled the garlic again and quickly took a few steps to the side.
"So what are we going to do now? No one in the village can be trusted."
There are too few clues, but it seems that the problem cannot be solved in a short time. The most important thing is not to alert the enemy.
"Let's go to the pig farm first, just as Village Chief Li wishes, and take a look."
——
"This kid is really thoughtful and perceptive. He has been working since he got into the taxi."
More than a dozen teachers were sitting in the large conference room, with a surveillance screen in front of them broadcasting the students' exams in real time.
On the left and right are the first and second graders respectively, and the screen basically also shows the first grade groups.
But the invigilators were not just from the first and second grades. After all, there were at least a hundred live or recorded exams, and Xishan directly pulled many third-grade teachers over as well.
The person who was speaking had an even more special identity.
She is the teacher of Lingyan class, Si Sisina, a super S-level (S++) supernatural power.
It is not obvious on the fan, but I am still proud of it in my heart.
Haha, that’s his most valued student. If he doesn’t perform well, he will kick him out.
“Compared with other students, their performance is indeed outstanding.”
The person speaking now is Lelis, the head teacher of Class 1, Grade 3. To become a qualified psychic, it is not enough to just rely on the power of the psychic.
Most of them, especially the new first-year students, are still confused. Even the information given by the management is extremely vague, and everyone needs to find the truth of the commission by themselves.
This is a completely different experience from fighting with classmates or enemies.
Add to that the fact that it's related to the living dead, and it becomes even more heavyweight.
"Sha Yin, who came up with this idea?" Si Sixina actually wanted to have some fun, so he agreed to be the invigilator.
The other teachers also looked at Sha Yin secretly, wanting to know the answer.
Killing the living dead, even the most devilish Xishan would not arrange such a task during the rebirth period.
Sha Yin's expression did not change. "It was jointly drafted by Principal Mu Wu Ren and us. After all, there are more first-year students after the expansion, so the training method must naturally change."
Si Sisina laughed cheerfully twice and looked at Xishan meaningfully.
She was indeed invited by Xishan, but she also came with the intention of observing things.
The mid-year competition will be held in two months, and she wants to come and see if there are any outstanding children worth recruiting.
Si Sisina continued to watch the live broadcast on the screen, staring at those outstanding young people with shining eyes.
Especially the child named Xi Siling. I heard that his superpowers have evolved recently, making up for the last shortcoming. She is even more fond of him.
If I had known earlier, I should have forced him into Lingyan's class when he was in the first grade. That way, maybe I could have tricked Xishan into coming over as well.
Fortunately, it is not too late now, and his teammates are pretty good. Sisina decided to observe further.
Anyway, no matter what, we have to get Xi Siling into the Lingyan class this year.
"Oh, it's so youthful, I like it so much~"
Xishan suddenly felt a chill on his back and subconsciously looked in that direction. It turned out to be that woman Sisixina who was going crazy.
I feel uncomfortable when I think about working with this woman if I go to Lingyan Class.
Si Sisina was not in a hurry when her gaze was discovered, "Teacher Xishan, to be honest, I really miss working with you~"
Fan Analysis:......
"I'm going to the bathroom, everyone continue watching, continue, haha."
If you can't afford to provoke someone, you can afford to avoid him.
——
Xi Siling sneezed.
Who is thinking about him? A chill ran down my spine. Could it be the old thief?
"Senior? Are you okay?"
"It's okay, my nose just itches a little."
It's not like she would catch a cold in this weather, but Xi Siling felt more like someone was thinking about her.
It must have rained here two days ago. The mud on the path was soft, and my trouser legs got dirty as I walked.
Especially Li Ke, who had no experience walking on such muddy roads, and soon the edges of his two pairs of sneakers were covered with mud.
"Why don't you let 11 carry you? Xiao Ke, do you have any change of clothes?"
"That's 40 too much! What do you mean by carrying me away?"
But Lan Yi can really do it. He can just lift all three people up and run easily.
"It's very uncomfortable to get mud in your shoes, so be careful." Lan Yi kindly reminded, "Walk behind me, and walk where I walk, so you won't step into the mud easily."
"Woo woo, Brother Lan, you really care about me!"
If you want to walk on this kind of road, you have to rely on bricks, slates and other things thrown by villagers on the road to pass through. It's like stepping on a blind box. If you step on empty air, you may be covered in mud.
Lan Yi still has experience.
After much difficulty, they finally reached the west side of Louli Village. They saw a few scattered houses and a faint smell of animal manure in the wind.
“The corn here doesn’t bear fruit either.”
Lan Yi's attention is still on this.
The lack of corn fruit is not an isolated case; this situation exists throughout Louli Village.
Xi Siling thought for a moment and looked at Liuhuaqi, "77, check if there is anyone else around."
The boy shook his head, "No one."
Liu Huaqi has become accustomed to using his supernatural power mist as a passive function. Since his rebirth, he has been practicing his supernatural power hard and has been able to achieve 24-hour coverage.
Xi Siling gave his full trust as he said, so he jumped down from the road next to him, pulled up a corn plant at the edge by its roots, and then jumped back.
Li Ke pulled him and said, "Wow, you are so powerful that you can beat the corn."
Xi Siling laughed twice, "Tomorrow we will go to the next village to see how their corn is, and then send it to the Management Institute to see if it is affected by the supernatural power."
Lan Yi gave a thumbs up, "That makes sense."
The few of them continued walking forward, and it was getting dark.
This is usually the time when free-range chickens and ducks return home, but the area in front of the dam is particularly quiet and the gate is closed.
Xi Siling knocked on the door, but there was no sound from inside.
"Not back yet?"
"It shouldn't be this late already." Lan Yi even checked the time on his phone.
Li Ke didn't think there was anything wrong, "Maybe he went to visit someone else's house."
It's not impossible.
"Then let's first..."
Liu Huaqi suddenly coughed a few times, so the three of them looked at him.
"It's a little late, let's come back tomorrow."
Although the young man said this, he pointed outside, signaling everyone to go out first.
Liu Huaqi spoke only after they had walked about two hundred meters.
"They are indeed not in the house, but there is a little thing at the door that is eavesdropping on us." Liu Huaqi spread his hands, "I also checked the pigpen, there is nothing, but the footprints are very fresh."
Li Ke snorted, "It seems that they are not very welcoming to our arrival."
Lan Yi propped up his chin and said, "Now it can be proved that Village Chief Li was deceiving us. I suggest that we make a surprise attack and secretly go to the village chief's house to take a look. How about that?"
