The paper crane flew away, and "that guy" went to catch the escaped paper man, but no news came back yet. Lin Mo was a little worried now, and he no longer had the mood to study the art of making paper figures behind closed doors.

Moreover, Lin Mo had already read Chang Zhou's origami knowledge, and what remained was to integrate it and create something of his own.

In fact, there are already results.

Paper crane is one of them.

The group of running away little paper figures are the second one.

As for the combination of playing musical instruments and singing that Lin Mo cares most about, he can do it, but this thing is like a novel toy in the hands of other children in the eyes of a child.

When I don't have this thing, I think about it day and night, and I really want to have one myself.

But when you really own it, you will find it a bit boring.

I didn't understand that feeling when I was a child. But when I grew up and started to think, I realized that it was just a kind of "jealousy" because others have something that I don't have, because most of the things you envy others for having may not be suitable for you.

Chang Zhou's paper figurine duo that plays musical instruments and sings can go out and make money, but what's the point of making one yourself?

Speaking of paper figures, there was one thing Lin Mo couldn't figure out.

He had seen Old Man Wang's paper figures before, and they had no spirituality at all; Chang Zhou's paper figures were very powerful, and could be regarded as very powerful assistants to help the owner complete some tasks, but there was one characteristic that might be a shortcoming, but it might also be a strength.

That's dull.

Paper figures are dead objects.

Muna is the characteristic of dead things.

It's like a robot, working completely according to certain instructions, without any other emotions or thoughts.

But why is the paper figure I made different? It can actually run away by itself.

Moreover, they all talk nonsense and each of them has their own ideas. Even 'that guy' knows how to negotiate conditions and even volunteers himself.

Like a human! Lin Mo didn't quite understand why it was like this.

"I stayed in my room for more than ten days, and all I came up with is these unreliable little paper figures?"

Touching his chin, Lin Mo fell into self-doubt.

The main reason was that this was not entirely different from his original purpose, but it was also completely unrelated. What he wanted was an indestructible and extremely powerful 'battle sword'.

The result was a bunch of cowardly, fleeing losers.

Relying on these little paper figures to deal with powerful nightmares? Lin Mo was deeply skeptical about this.

He sighed, feeling a little helpless.

Lin Mo didn’t feel like continuing to fold paper right now, he had to go out and take a look.

If those hundreds of little paper figures run away and cause any trouble, it will be my fault.

“At worst I can just deny it and say I have nothing to do with those damn little paper figures. Yes, let’s do it.” Lin Mo thought of a way out for himself.

So if the little paper people scare the children or do something out of line next time, it has nothing to do with me.

Anyway, I definitely can't admit it.

Although I think so, I am also worried.

Lin Mo planned to go to Wang Dalong and others to ask.

Now Xiyan City has gradually become more regular. The local security bureau has formed a security team and added more than a hundred people. Although there is still a shortage of manpower, it is much better than at the beginning.

In addition, the General Administration has also shipped some supplies over. Now, Wang Dalong and his team can handle general security incidents on their own.

Lin Mo ran to the Security Bureau, but came up empty-handed.

No one.

After much difficulty, an intern was found. The intern might have just arrived and didn't know Lin Mo. He ignored Lin Mo at first. After Lin Mo's persuasion, the intern finally believed Lin Mo and told him the situation.

"I don't know what's going on. Now, many strange incidents have suddenly occurred in the safe area designated by Xiyan City. Captain Wang has already led the team out. Now three squadrons and fifteen teams have been sent out. I also want to go, but they won't take me."

The intern was a little angry.

You are still young.

Lin Mo asked him if he had ever experienced any strange events or nightmares before.

The intern said he had never experienced it, but had seen nightmares.

“I took a look from a distance at the time and felt that it was nothing big,” said the intern.

Lin Mo was happy.

He knew why Wang Dalong and his team didn't take the intern with them when they went out.

This guy is just a cucumber.

The type who is not good at anything but brags about being the best.

However, Lin Mo also learned about the current situation from this intern.

Those paper figures must have caused trouble for him.

Otherwise, so many strange events wouldn’t suddenly appear.

This makes it even more unacceptable.

"Okay, go ahead and do your work. I won't bother you anymore."

Lin Mo planned to go out and take a look by himself.

If I have the chance, I will bring back a few paper figures for myself.

I hope no one gets killed.

There are very few people outside.

The internal roads of the ancient county town were also empty.

Lin Mo knew that this was a kind of emergency mechanism. If a large-scale strange incident occurred, people in the real world would play the alarm bell.

The sound is harsh and will wake up those who are sleeping.

Although it is a little troublesome, it is safer.

However, Lin Mo also knew that the group of paper figures must have caused quite a bit of noise, otherwise, this emergency mechanism would not have been activated.

Of course, alarm bells don't work for everyone.

Some people sleep very deeply and are difficult to wake up.

This includes Lin Mo.

He could actually vaguely hear the alarm, but the sound was very small and distant, like the radio exercises played in a school that he would occasionally hear while walking on the road.

Will this sound affect his sleep?

Obviously not.

This only made him sleep better.

On the way, Lin Mo saw a big brother slapping himself in the face, and the sound was so loud and clear.

Curiosity prompted Lin Mo to go over and ask.

Maybe some weirdness or nightmare has affected this big brother.

That wasn't the result.

"I want to wake up, but I can't. I'm scared."

The eldest brother was so scared that his face turned pale.

He said he could hear the sirens, but they didn't wake him up.

"Next time, connect a separate speaker next to your bed. This way the effect will be more obvious."

Lin Mo made a suggestion.

Then I saw that the big brother was almost scared to tears. After all, as the alarm continued, there were fewer and fewer people on the road, and they disappeared one by one, which meant that they all woke up.

This is how this person is. Nothing would have happened originally, but when he sees everyone else leaving and he is left alone, he becomes very panicked and scared.

Lin Moxin said that meeting was fate, and he would help if he could.

So I gave this big brother a bean for escape.

"Remember, connect a tweeter next to the bed."

The eldest brother ate the beans and left.

Lin Mo looked again and found that the street was empty except for himself.

Because the little paper figures were folded one by one by Lin Mo himself, Lin Mo could actually sense the breath of the paper figures.

Especially within a certain range, this induction will be more obvious.

There is one in this place.

And it’s not far away, just in front, at the corner, in a small alley.

Lin Mo walked over.

Turn the corner, walk to the entrance of the third alley, and stop.

Looking inside, it was pitch black.

Two figures can be vaguely seen.

Lin Mo walked in, took out a brick hammer and shook it.

Green flames immediately appeared, illuminating the narrow alley.

This is a dead end alley, so narrow that only one person can pass through.

The woman should be an ordinary person. She was so scared that she pissed her pants. Her face was horrified, but she couldn't scream.

Because her mouth was covered.

The ears were also covered by the ghost's hands.

The body was grabbed by hands.

Lin Mo stretched out his hands and counted them. Wow, six hands.

"Are you a spider?"

Lin Mo asked.

Maybe she saw someone coming, the woman who was held hostage by the ghost had a dramatic look in her eyes, tears were streaming down her face, and it was obvious that she was asking for help.

But she also knew that ordinary people would never be able to defeat such a terrifying monster.

So she actually wanted the other person to run away.

As a result, the person on the opposite side continued to walk forward, neither fast nor slow, as if he was strolling leisurely.

Instead, the ghost that was holding her kept retreating, and then hit the wall behind her, with no way to retreat.

The woman felt the hands covering her mouth and ears moved away, but the hands strangling her neck were still there, and she still couldn't run away.

"You, don't come over here!"

The woman heard a terrified scream from the ghost behind her.

Huh? She was a little stunned.

You must be mistaken.

Something feels wrong.

This ghost looked very scary, with three heads and six arms. When she met it, she was immediately grabbed by it and dragged into the alley.

She knew at that time that she was doomed.

No one can save her.

But at this time, the ghost actually made that kind of screaming sound, just like a mouse meeting a cat.

The woman didn't understand.

But Lin Mo knew why.

This ghost was transformed from his own paper man.

Lin Mo was curious about how the paper man turned into this horrible appearance.

Wait a moment.

Lin Mo thought of something. He stopped, took a few steps back, exited the alley, and found the answer on a wooden door outside.

There is a picture of a door god pasted on a wooden door.

The painting shows a creature with three heads and six arms, looking like a furious King Kong.

Lin Mo didn’t quite understand.

Anyway, this doesn't look like the door god he usually sees.

I reached out and touched it, and there was still a hint of strangeness on the picture.

As expected, this paper figure used some method to replicate the appearance of this door god.

The question is, is this possible? Could it be that this is the new ability of the paper man after my research and improvement?

Go back into the alley.

The paper replica of the three-headed, six-armed door god was leaning against the wall, holding the woman hostage, looking a little nervous.

"Don't be nervous, I'm not a bad person." Lin Mo's opening remarks really made the woman on the other end unable to react for a long time.

"Come on, let her go first. Why did you catch her? Do you want to eat her or kill her?"

"Neither eat nor kill." The paper man said bravely.

"Then why did you arrest her?"

“Inhale a little fear.”

Lin Mo thought about it and suddenly understood something.

"Wait a minute, how did you become like this?"

"There is fear in that painting. Everyone is afraid of this painting, so I can get into it and become what everyone is afraid of."

"So you can feed on fear?"

"right!"

“What happens if you inhale fear?”

“It will become stronger.”

"What do you want to do after you become stronger?"

"run."

"Why are you running?"

"Hiding from you!"

"Am I so scary?" Lin Mo opened his hands to show that he was innocent.

This time, the three heads of the paper man nodded at the same time.

That means you are just that terrible.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. Just let the person go first." Lin Mo said. He felt that it was not good to keep the stalemate like this.

"You promise, you swear."

"Okay, I swear, I won't tear you apart."

Seeing that Lin Mo really swore, the paper man let go of the woman doubtfully.

The woman was confused throughout the whole process.

She suddenly felt that the terrifying three-headed ghost behind her was not so scary.

On the contrary, the man in front seemed a little dangerous.

She didn't move, staring at Lin Mo vigilantly.

It was like the other person was a horrible monster in human skin.

On the contrary, the ghost who had just kidnapped her seemed like a kind and simple person.

Lin Mo knew from the look in this woman's eyes that this idiot was out of his mind. He didn't know who had given her such a wild idea that she actually doubted himself.

"Get out of here!" Lin Mo didn't bother to explain and just cursed, then added: "If you don't get out of here, I'll tear you apart!"

The woman looked terrified and ran out screaming.

Lin Mo stepped aside and let the idiot leave.

This time, it was finally quiet.

The paper man transformed into a ghost with three heads and six arms and huddled in the corner. When he saw Lin Mo coming in, he became very nervous and uneasy. He pinched the corner of his clothes with his big hands, leaned sideways, and pressed his body tightly against the wall behind him, as if he was going to sink into it.

Like a child living under the intimidation of a violent parent.

Lin Mo was patient and tried his best to persuade the paper man, and only then did he convince him that he would not tear it up.

After that, the communication went much smoother.

Lin Mo also figured out some things, for example, these little paper figures can move on their own and have their own consciousness. As for how this consciousness was born, no one knows.

Lin Mo suspected that when he was conducting research behind closed doors, he was in a special state, which allowed the little paper man to gain consciousness.

Next is their capabilities.

It can move freely, devour fear to strengthen itself, and change its form again according to the fear of others.

It feels pretty awesome.

Lin Mo didn’t know how effective it would be in actual combat, but it was undoubtedly an improvement.

However, if the paper man has already changed its shape, it cannot return to its original state of the small white paper man, but it can be transformed into a corresponding paper man based on its current shape.

Lin Mo asked the other party to show it.

Then the monster with three heads and six arms suddenly shrank rapidly like a deflated ball, and finally a small paper man with three heads and six arms fell from the sky.

Lin Mo picked it up and put it in his pocket.

This thing can be activated again when needed.

It is equivalent to having a group of "Pokemon" with different abilities and forms.

Next time you get into a group fight, just throw out a handful and see who has more brothers.

At this time, the streets were empty.

Lin Mo thought it over and quickly caught the paper men that had escaped. He didn't know how many "that guy" had caught.

As for when SHI, JU and Wang Dalong ask about it in the future, Lin Mo will definitely not admit it. After all, this matter is so serious that even the first-level emergency mechanism has been activated.
