H City, a sub-provincial city, a transportation, political, economic, cultural and financial center, is also a mega-city with the largest land jurisdiction and large registered population among the provincial cities in China.
Compared to K City, the temperature here is much cooler.
At noon, there is cloudy and cold.
Nebula Internet Cafe.
The little girl leaned on the sofa, dazed.
This is a petite, long and straight black little girl. Under the flowing sea is a pair of large dark eyes, her face is covered by a black mask, but the outline of her face can be seen. Looking down, the upper body wore a black tunic, through which her bulging chest could be seen.
Although the face is covered, but anyone who sees her, will think that this is a beauty, right? Even if the looks are average, the luscious body is attractive enough.
At this moment, she was very scared.
After completing three system missions in a row, the fourth one failed because she did not scare the mission target.
The penalty for mission failure - unknown danger.
"The host may be killed by someone whose identity is unknown."
--These were the original words of the intimidation system.
What to do? Go far away? Leave the city?
The girl shook her head and shrunk her body into the couch, glancing around apprehensively.
It is better not to do this, if you do, but will actively towards the danger, right?
There were many students from nearby schools. With the sound of dense keyboard tapping, from time to time someone yells out, fully concentrated on the game.
This place should be very safe, right? There are so many people, no one should ......
"Find-you-now!!!"
An unfamiliar male voice suddenly sounded behind her. The voice concealed murder and joy, as if a hunter who had been hungry for countless days had finally found his prey.
She jerked back, only to find nothing behind her, just a wall.
Hallucinations? Impossible.
Run! Run!!!
She jumped off the couch and ran out of the cafe in a frenzy. She looked around in fear, everything was normal, no one of suspicious shape was chasing her.
"System, what should I do? Is that person invisible?" Fear made her voice tremble.
The system was silent, I don't know if it was because of the delay, or because it didn't want to speak.
The system was always so unreliable, and it disappeared without a trace at critical moments.
the masked girl stopped a cab.
"Where to?" The driver asked.
"To the business district next to University of H!"
She planned to go to a crowded place so that maybe that unknown danger would disappear.
The cab started up and the scenery outside the window flew by. Her hanging heart let go. She should be safe now. ......
Wait, she seemed to have overlooked something important.
Something didn't seem right.
What was it exactly? ...... She thought about it, and her eyes darted to the driver driving in front of her ......
driver!
The driver's "where to go" ......
driver's voice is exactly the same as that terrible voice!
As if to verify her suspicions, the driver turned his head one hundred and eighty degrees and looked at her with a grin ......
Her eyes were wide open and her consciousness was overwhelmed with endless fear.
---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --
The masked girl collapsed in front of the computer, her eyes tightly closed as if she were asleep, but if anyone had probed her nostrils they would have found that she had stopped breathing.
Behind the sofa where the girl was sitting, stood a "transparent person".
Ye Huai slowly pulled out the knife inserted in the girl's back, the strange thing is that until the knife left, the girl's body did not bleed a drop of blood, and there was no wound.
This knife is a prop that Ye Huai got in Horror Novel Web - Soul Eater Dagger.
According to Horror Novel Web, this is a dagger full of curses, sealed with countless spirits, wounded by the dagger will see extremely horrible visions, and gradually stop heartbeat.
The most powerful thing about this dagger is that it kills without blood and leaves no traces. Even if the body is dissected, it can only be defined as sudden death.
As for why Ye Huai killed in public but was not discovered by others, because he was wearing a "cloak of invisibility". It is also a prop of Horror Novel Web, but he seized it from the authors of other novels.
The clothes can be invisible for one hour, and can be used once a day.
Ye Huai came to H City from just to kill this masked girl. She was the protagonist of Intimidation System, and the creatation under Xu Fang's wrtting.
Looking down at the girl's corpse, a hint of pleasure flashed across Ye Huai's eyes. The first time he killed someone with his own hands in the real world, he didn't feel any mental discomfort at all, as if he had gotten used to the act. He had already killed hundreds of people at the keyboard, perhaps his mind had long since turned into a cold-blooded demon. It is also possible that because this girl is also a character he indirectly created, it is no different from a pile of data.
--Killing a person is as common as deleting a paragraph of text.
He went through the girl's pockets and found a wallet, a cell phone and a card. The wallet and the phone he did not see, but the strange card attracted his attention.
The card was palm-sized, pale gold in color, emitting a faint glow. Three big words were written on the front - a death-free card.
"Death-free card? Active use? A bit interesting."
Ye Huai put the card away in his pocket, and then he took out his phone and logged into Horror Novel Web.
After seeing the message box that popped up, Ye Huai was first stunned, and then his face showed a wildly happy look.
"I killed the host of the Intimidation System? Is this guy so big? It rewards 20,000 points? The authority is raised to E level? Hahahahaha, I'm rich!!!"
The unconcealed maniacal laughter startled the people playing games in the Internet cafe, they raised their heads and looked at the direction of the sound in amazement
-- nothing.
Maybe it was the sound of someone else's computer. They thought darkly and continued their own games.
Ye Huai left the Nebula Internet Cafe, walked to a sparsely populated area, and lifted his invisibility, revealing his thin and yellow cheeks. He raised his head to the sky and sneered heatedly.
"How will you respond to this?"
---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- --
Through a spiritual connection, Xu Fang's consciousness attached itself to Gussy. He blinked his eyes and the world turned gray. By rights, Gussy should be lying in the box under the bed at this time, however, the box was now opened.
The air smelled like a "human".
Xu Fang got up and looked to the side.
There was a man lying not far from the box, his eyes were wide open, his pupils were dilated, his expression was frightened, his body was swollen, and his crotch was wet.
Xu Fang quickly recognized this as the working tenant whom Xiaoming had hired away for 20,000 yuan. How did he appear in his room? How did he get in?
"Gussy ...... gussy ......!" (Hey! Are you okay?)
There was no response.
Xu Fang's heart gradually sank.
He reached out his small pale hand and probed the man's nostrils.
The breathing stopped.
He placed his hand on the man's chest again, and his heart stopped beating as well.
On top of that, as far as the demon's eye could see, there were far fewer points of energy light on the man's body.
It was obvious what had happened.
Xu Fang slapped his head hard.
It was over, Gussyhad killed someone.
I thought nothing would happen if Gussy was hidden, even if Gussy wanted to act on its own, it would have to go through Xu Fang's consent - for example, when Gussy wanted to kill, it would send a request to Xu Fang through the physical connection end, and Xu Fang could agree or refuse.
Xu Fang didn't even have time to read the content of the message.
From the traces of the scene, Gussy should have killed the man instantly. When it came into contact with the man, it drained his bio-energy.
Xu Fang clenched his fist in chagrin.
(Ugh ...... what use do you have?)
He also blamed himself, being too conservative and not using the spiritual connection. Otherwise, this tragedy could have been completely avoided.
Now that it has happened, there is no use regretting it, let's find a way to deal with the aftermath.
First, Xu Fang entered Horror Novel Web and asked the customer service if there was a way to revive this person.
He got a clear answer - no.
As expected, the man's death had become an inevitable event, and it was almost impossible to revive him unless the system store was opened.
Then, in the end, there are only two ways left.
One, call the police and put all the blame on Gussy.
Two, dispose of the body, and then pretend that nothing has happened.
If you call the police, Xu Fang will face a dilemma: he can't explain that a handicraft not only moves, but also kills people. Whether the police believe it or not, this is not a good thing, and eventually Gussy will be taken away by the police.
If the body is disposed of, it is a question of what to do with it. The surrounding area is a busy street with tall buildings and high population density. And every road has cameras, throwing the body such behavior is undoubtedly in the death.
What should be done in the end?
Xu Fang was in deep thought.
