As the pool of blood spread, pale and frightened corpses appeared in front of Lin Qiye's eyes.
Corpses, which are not living things, can be recorded by the black-eyed [Secret Peeper].
After everyone in the mansion was slaughtered, the three-fingered footprints walked out of the door and walked around the house, seemingly looking for something.
Finally, it found Li Jianbai lying beside the ditch and instantly chopped his neck into pieces. The next moment, Li Jianbai's body was outlined in front of Lin Qiye's eyes.
After doing all this, the footprints sank slightly and never moved again.
Lin Qiye frowned and looked up at the sky.
That monster has the ability to fly. Once it rises into the sky, it will leave no trace. Even the black eye cannot track its whereabouts.
Lin Qiye sighed and sent Heitong back to the hospital, and the current scene returned to his eyes.
"How is it?" Baili Pangpang and others saw Lin Qiye opening his eyes and asked.
"It's not a human being. It's a 'mysterious' creature with three fingers on its feet and the ability to fly. It flew from the sky. After killing people, it also flew away. I can't track it." Lin Qiye said truthfully.
"'mystery'?"
Hearing these two words, Shi Wenxuan frowned.
"Is there any problem?" Lin Qiye asked.
After Shi Wenxuan pondered for a moment, he sighed and said: "To be honest, we have not had a 'mystery' in Linjiang City for nearly four years..."
"Four years?" An Qingyu said in surprise, "How is this possible? The arrival of 'mystery' is related to the density of people. Even in remote Anta County, there will be a 'mysterious' invasion every year. Linjiang City is a second-tier city.
How can a city not have ‘mystery’?”
"I don't know either." Shi Wenxuan smiled bitterly, "I have been here as a night watchman for more than three years, and I really haven't seen even a 'mysterious' shadow.
Sometimes I wonder to myself, since there is no 'mystery' in this city, what is the meaning of the existence of us night watchmen? I have applied to my superiors to be transferred out of here several times, but the superiors have always asked me to stay, just in case.
just in case."
"Is this what Commander Zuo said is strange about Linjiang City?" Lin Qiye said thoughtfully, "It is indeed suspicious that a 'mysterious' has not appeared for four years."
Four years...
Why is this time so familiar?
Lin Qiye recalled the fire that the children mentioned last night at Hanshan Orphanage. It seemed that it was four years ago?
Is it a coincidence? Or...
"Then what should we do now?" Jiang Er asked floating in the air, "I only know that the one who destroyed the Li family is a flying 'mystery', but how should we find it?"
"Now, the only way is a blanket search." Cao Yuan said, "The 'mysterious' one was the Li family manor that was slaughtered last night. It should not have left Linjiang City yet. With Qiye's mental perception, there is also
Qingyu’s rat tide, it’s only a matter of time before we find it.”
"In this case, let's search separately to see if there are any other clues."
After some discussion, they split up to look for the "mysterious" whereabouts in Linjiang City. An Qingyu was about to leave to spread the "fish seeds", but found that Lin Qiye was still standing there in a daze.
"What are you thinking about?" An Qingyu stepped forward.
Lin Qiye looked at the ditch where Li Jianbai's body was, and pondered for a moment:
"I think...this incident may not be as simple as a 'mysterious' invasion."
"Why?"
"Because, the 'mysterious' one is looking for him." Lin Qiye stretched out his hand and pointed at the ditch.
"Li Jianbai?" An Qingyu was stunned, "What do you mean?"
"After the 'mysterious' bird fell from the sky, it killed everyone in the mansion. After that, it did not leave immediately. Instead, it wandered around the mansion, as if it was looking for something...
It waited until it found Li Jianbai and killed him before flying away from the scene.
In other words, Li Jianbai was its target from the beginning?
But this doesn't make sense. If it was just a randomly appearing 'mystery', why did it have to find Li Jianbai and then kill him? If we look into it more carefully, why did this 'mystery' land at Li's manor and kill him?
Rather than somewhere else?"
Lin Qiye's words directly made An Qingyu frown.
"You mean...there is someone behind this 'mysterious' one? His target was originally Li Jianbai and the Li family manor?"
"It's possible." Lin Qiye thought for a moment,
"Anyway, you first arrange a rat tide in Linjiang City and try to search for that 'mysterious' one. I'll go out."
"Where are you going?"
"Hanshan Orphanage."
…
Hanshan Orphanage.
Squeak——!
The old iron door was slowly pushed open, and a young man wearing a blue and white school uniform and carrying a schoolbag walked in from the door.
The rain was so heavy that there was a fog between heaven and earth, but the boy did not hold an umbrella. The rain dripped down the tips of his black hair and onto the soaked school uniform, but his expression did not change at all, and his deep eyes were like
Calm as the abyss.
He walked through the yard and stood in front of Old Man Liu's office. Water droplets fell on the gray-black ground along his clothes and quickly condensed into a water stain.
At this moment, Old Man Liu was sitting at the table with his back to him, looking at the five bank cards on the table in a daze.
"Grandpa Liu." The young man suddenly spoke in a deep voice.
In the dim office, Old Man Liu looked back suddenly as if he was startled.
When he saw the wet Wuquan at the door, he stood up immediately and hurriedly walked towards him: "Xiaoquan? Why are you so wet? Didn't I put an umbrella in your schoolbag this morning?"
Old Man Liu quickly helped him take off his soaked school uniform jacket, fearing that he would catch a cold, but Wu Quan didn't seem to care about this at all. He just looked into Old Man Liu's eyes quietly,
"Grandpa Liu, we don't need to move, the Li Group has disappeared, and no one will come to make trouble in the future.
We can live here peacefully until brother Qingzhu comes back...
Never separate."
"Disappeared?" Old Liu was startled, then nodded, "I knew it this morning, and we won't move away."
After hearing this, Wu Quan finally relaxed a little, and his eyes fell on the five bank cards on the table.
"Where did these cards come from?"
"Oh, it was given to you by your comrades in arms of Brother Qingzhu before they left."
"Them?" Wu Quan was stunned, and the faces of Lin Qiye and others appeared in his mind, "Why do they give these things?"
"……have no idea."
Old Man Liu sighed.
In the dim office, only the sound of rain hitting the window was silent. After a long time, Old Man Liu still murmured:
"Boy Shen...there won't be any accidents, right?"
Wu Quan's eyes suddenly shrank.
Click——!!!
A ferocious thunder flashed across the sky in an instant.
"Impossible!!" Wu Quan subconsciously took half a step back, his silent black eyes showed unprecedented emotional fluctuations, "Brother Qingzhu will be fine... He will be fine!"
