Chapter 126: "I Follow the Light"
Thick curtains were drawn in the room, and the air conditioning temperature was just right.
The handcuffed girl lowered her head and sat in her seat. The angle of her seat had been specially adjusted so that she could lean back and relax.
She lowered her head, bent her back, and remained silent.
“Da da da…”
There were footsteps outside, and a man and a woman wearing clothes with silver star emblems walked in.
"No., Su Shi." The female police officer spoke and sat opposite her. Su Shi's face appeared on the screen and the recording had begun.
Su Shi raised his head slightly, and his eyes, like dried-up springs, were staring at the female police officer in front of him.
The female police officer is called Zhang Qing. She was previously a policewoman from the Long Guohui Department. After the world game started, she heard that the United Group was recruiting players, so she went to Server No. 1 to sign up without hesitation and was successfully entered into the United Group's Mental Health Committee.
Members of the joint youth league organization also receive salaries and points are distributed every week.
As for where these points came from and how the people above got them, she had no idea.
The points are not many and can only serve as a consolation at best.
But this does not affect her desire to become a member of the United Group. The world needs people like her.
On the streets now, people have all hidden in their homes, and the more timid ones have gone straight to the cramped and small personal spaces.
...And the fuse of everything was this seemingly ordinary girl in front of him.
Zhang Qing could see that the girl was very nervous and scared.
Like many murderers who kill on impulse, when the pleasure of revenge fades, endless fear will surge up. After the heat in their brains fades, they will start to think about everything about themselves... family, friends, career.
…and then regret it.
The Su Shi in front of him looked quiet and peaceful. According to her profile, she was just an ordinary female college student from Longguo. The only special thing about her was her forum identity - she was an avid believer in the Lighthouse System, and she also served as the manager of the First Player Super Topic. Her fan art was also very popular.
But who could have thought that a girl like this... would suddenly commit such a horrific act of suicide attack in her own home?
Judging from the serial number, Su Shi is not the first person to be so crazy.
Before her, there were many people who relied on their own strength to show off their power and used area damage to create many casualties - but no case was as sensational as Su's incident.
After the world game started, humans really went crazy.
Zhang Qing was glad that she was one of the relatively sober members of the human race and had not become like those crazy people.
Today's case did not cause any deaths, only injuries, which is the greatest blessing.
"No., Su style." A transparent keyboard appeared in Zhang Qing's hand: "What caused you to behave like this today?"
Normally, one shouldn't interrogate such a criminal so politely.
Use threats and intimidation, and fight a war of attrition... until the prisoner finishes recording his confession.
But the Su Shi in front of him... judging from the screen recording saved at the scene, her mental state is no longer normal.
Tends towards a patient, a mentally ill person.
And perhaps because she and the first player were acquainted before, the people above also advised her to try not to take coercive actions.
They are worried that the number one player who has not yet taken sides will become enemies with the United Group.
Su Shi's eyelids lifted slightly, and her eyes gradually became warmer, as if her whole body suddenly warmed up.
"..." She opened her mouth and seemed to be saying something, but her voice was so soft that Zhang Qing couldn't even hear it clearly.
Zhang Qing leaned forward slightly, but Su Shi suddenly straightened up, and the noise alarmed the male police officer next to him.
Su Shi looked at them with dull eyes.
"...I finally..." She whispered as if she was mumbling to herself, "I killed those demons that have been causing me pain."
"They have no self-awareness, they are useless."
"They thought they could deceive my eyes by disguising themselves as the people around me."
"impossible."
"I end their lives, I follow the light."
"I……"
The handcuffs made a sound, and Su Shi's eyes were bright:
“…It’s the Light Chaser.”
“Squeak—”
The door made a sound of opening.
A dark-skinned man with a gold star on his shoulder pushed the door open and walked in, his expression serious.
"Let go of Miss Sushi first." He commanded.
Zhang Qing and Li Ke looked at the stars on his shoulders and stood up to remove the Soviet-style handcuffs.
The man walked up to Su Shi and said earnestly:
"Ms. Su Shi, thankfully, with the help of the healing players, your mother is safe and sound."
Su Shi raised her head slightly, and the handcuffs on her hands were removed, revealing a circle of glaring red marks on her wrists.
"We are willing to forgive you and find a way to clear your name." The man continued, and he seemed to show a card with a line of small names on it.
"You and your mother will also be taken to a safe place, and we will provide you with excellent equipment."
"If you want to join the game, we can also help you." The man continued.
Su Shi's eyes brightened slightly.
Zhang Qing and Li Ke looked at each other, with some disapproval in their expressions.
But the man's voice remained steady: "...We even have items that can locate the location of the dungeon. As long as you can get the ID number of the first player, you can enter the same dungeon as the first player—"
