Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 24 The hunter is the receptionist of the night

Chen Yan stared at the little girl whose figure became clearer.

The [corruption] on the girl intensified.

Her flesh seemed to melt and drip down.

The limbs were gradually deformed, the arms could not support the weight of the body, the spine could not support the weight of the head, and everything on her body was becoming more distorted.

She is developing in a more terrifying direction.

What kind of thing turned a normal little girl into such a ghost.

Lawrence seemed to know what Chen Yan was thinking.

"Mr. Chen, you don't need to ask me, because I don't know what [that matter] is."

"All I know is that [that incident] was so bad that it could induce [corruption] in her [poisonous blood]."

"[Foul blood] is not clean in the first place, otherwise how can it be called dirty blood?"

"For the family members of the gods, if the power in [Foul Blood] is not used excessively, [Corruption] will generally not happen."

"Of course, besides the excessive use of the power of the foul blood, there are many other reasons that induce the [corruption] of the [fouled blood]."

After Chen Yan listened, a question filled her mind.

"Lawrence, tell me, why did she get an invitation to the zoo after [something very bad] happened?"

Chen Yan realized that he hadn't asked the question clearly.

"I'll put it another way."

"Zoo, why invite such a man who is about to rot?"

"There must be a causal relationship."

In the microphone, Lawrence let out a long breath, and his tone was more relaxed.

"You're on point, Mr. Chen, and it touches on one of the most important rules of the zoo.

It's the rules you're supposed to follow, but for some reason, you don't. "

Chen Yan said almost as soon as the voice fell: "It's a certain rule in the "Entry Notice"... It's the time to go to work!"

Lawrence sighed and stopped praising him.

"Yes, Mr. Chen, you met her because you didn't enter the zoo 13 minutes before work."

Chen Yan thought of something, and his whole body gradually became stiff.

"More precisely, this is your punishment for violating the rule [entering the zoo 13 minutes before work]."

"As punishment, you saw her, you saw them, and that's something you weren't supposed to see...."

Chen Yan stumbled and asked: "Why are they things? Are they not human anymore?"

The answer in the microphone is intriguing.

"Aha."

Lawrence did not give a definite answer.

"Why can't you guess this time, Mr. Chen?"

His hateful tone aroused Chen Yan's anger.

This Lawrence Argent, seems to enjoy playing tricks.

"Let's get back to your question, Mr. Chen.

Zoo, why invite such a soon-to-be-rotten man? "

"Because such tourists are not received by employees like you."

"The night at Byron Weiss Zoo belongs to the hunter, Mr Chen.

Hunters are their receptionists.

They are the hunter's prey.

And you are just an irrelevant intruder.

A poor wretch who broke the rules and got punished. "

The man in the microphone yawned lazily.

Chen Yan asked suspiciously: "Night? The sky is already bright..."

A soft ridicule came from the microphone: "The street lights are still on before sunrise, aren't they?"

Chen Yan raised his head suddenly, and saw the street lamps on both sides of the gravel road covered by snow.

The street lights were still on, providing poor light for the dim environment.

Chen Yan realized one thing—Wardfalk State is at the northernmost point of the empire, and the sunrise time in winter is already late. Looking at it now, although the sky is slightly bright, the dawn has not yet arrived—not yet moment of sunrise.

In other words, it is still night.

The voice in the microphone was tired.

"It's night now, and it's the hunting time for hunters. Please don't disturb the reception work of hunters, okay?"

"Otherwise, we will be looking for a new intern..."

The yawn sounded again.

"It's time for me to rest. I have to go to work in another hour. I'm very busy during the day..."

"Live well, Mr. Chen, remember not to violate the rules, and don't look into the eyes of hunters.

As long as you are obedient, you will survive.

After all... you are already an employee of Byron Weiss. "

Chen Yan heard this and knew that Lawrence was about to hang up the phone.

The doubts in his heart have basically been answered, and where there are doubts, he just waits for himself to verify.

So he didn't continue to question Lawrence.

On the contrary, Lawrence seemed worried, and said again in a tired voice:
"By the way, Mr. Chen, by the way, as an employee of Byron Weiss, you are protected by the rules of the Byron Weiss Zoo and have [unrestricted] rights."

"That is, you are not subject to the [no left turn] rule."

Hearing this sentence, Chen Yan was really startled.

"This is the privilege of being an employee in the park, and it is also a protection of the company's personal safety for employees."

Lawrence yawned again, and the sleepiness in his voice was quite strong.

"Last and last, is the rule I tell every newcomer——

[The formation of all phenomena must have its root cause.

Knowing the causal relationship between causes and phenomena can solve all mysteries. 】”

Chen Yan thought about it: "This is not a rule, it is obviously a truth."

Lawrence: "No, Mr. Chen, this is the most essential general rule for interpreting all extraordinary powers."

He didn't give Chen Yan a chance to continue talking.

"Finally, good morning, Mr. Chen, I believe we will meet soon."

"Beep beep..."

There is the sound of a lost signal coming from the microphone.

Lawrence had hung up the phone.

Chen Yan put the microphone back on the public phone in silence, and turned his gaze to the gravel road in front of the public phone booth.

The little girl has come to him.

The little girl's speed was much slower than before, and her bloodshot eyes gleamed crimson under the dim streetlight.

The human skin on her face had faded away, revealing a metallic carapace-like thing.

The four arms on her body became very long, but one of them was almost broken, and it was connected to her body, dragging in the snow.

Chen Yan's head was a little short-circuited, because he found one thing——

After talking to Lawrence for a long time and knowing so much information, I still couldn't solve the current predicament.

Knowing that the girl became like this because of something terrible, Chen Yan didn't have the ability to help her return to normal, or the way to solve her...

The corruption of the girl's body continued to intensify, and body parts fell off one after another.

When she passed the phone booth, a round thing fell out of her stomach.

The thing rolled a few times on the snow, and some of the blood was washed away by the snow, revealing its original appearance——

That's a head.

It's the head of the girl's father.

When Chen Yan saw the head clearly, there was a "boom" in his head.

The eyes on that head are blinking!

That brain is still "alive"!
When Chen Yan fell into the weird and terrifying scene in front of him, the girl had already walked a long distance, and was about to disappear out of sight, completely unaware that many things had fallen out of her body.

The face on the man's head, facing the direction of the phone booth.

Chen Yan could even see the despair on that face.
