Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 80
Where the Spirit Vision camera focused, two figures appeared on the originally empty window.

Chen Yan paid special attention to it, and confirmed that it was two "human" shadows, not shadows of other weird things.

The outside wind and snow blown into the corridor, causing the picture on the phone to be a little blurred, as if it was covered with a layer of snowflake mosaic-like foreground.

The courtyard in the snowstorm was originally quiet, until the next second after the camera focused, the voice of two people talking came from the microphone of the mobile phone.

"Master Xanth...is this injury really incurable?"

The voice sounded hoarse and weak, obviously lacking in strength.

And in the language of Asians, not Imperial.

"As I said, this is not a normal wound."

The second voice is upright and peaceful, like soft water, it sounds very comfortable.

Chen Yan thought, the second voice should be the cocklebur.

The voice of cocklebur came out again from the microphone of the mobile phone:

"This is the weirdest wound I've ever seen in my life. It's not serious, but it can't heal."

"This wound has no toxins, no chemicals, no herbs for invigorating blood, and no ordinary supernatural power...but it just can't heal."

The first voice was crying:

"What exactly is this?"

Cocklebur was silent for a moment before replying:
"I'm not sure yet."

There was obvious desperation in the first voice:
"Even you can't..."

Cocklebur didn't respond immediately.

Chen Yan saw in the screen of the spirit vision camera that Xanthium lowered his head, as if he was checking another person's wound.

After a while, the voice of Xanthium resounded again, with doubts and thoughts in that voice:

"Please describe the appearance of the person who stabbed you... and the time, place and general scene of your injury."

After a brief silence, the man began to describe the scene when he was injured.

"You must also know that it happened yesterday afternoon.

The downtown area was very chaotic, many people went there, and even some legendary existences showed up one by one.

I have never seen such a big scene in my life. "

He couldn't get to the point in his three sentences, but Xanthium didn't interrupt him, but continued to listen.

"The chants, the families of the gods, the descendants of demihumans, the violent spirits of the William Adams family... and Byron Weiss who is like a carrion vulture, you know, every time there is a dispute, they are indispensable. "

Chen Yan realized that the "they" referred to the Byron Weiss Zoo—the person the voice spoke of was probably the first agent of the Byron Weiss Zoo, Lawrence Argent.

"Everyone gathered together, um...you know, that's almost all the extraordinary forces in Yanan City."

"They gathered in the corner alley in the lower city, in a bar called Butterfly Feifei, patting each other's shoulders, looking like old friends for many years.

I understand why they are so eager - although everyone is secretly conflicting, but there are many business contacts.

In business, what is important is to make money with harmony.

Extraordinary people also have to eat, let alone them, who have to raise a big family.

They are like ordinary drunkards, sitting on the bar counter of Butterfly Feifei Bar, or on the broken sofa in the corner, talking about the old things that don't know how many years ago, telling unsavory color jokes, and chatting about these days How many people have you messed with.

Not even a bishop in the choir! "

When he said the next sentence, his voice changed obviously.

"Until that guy walks into the bar."

His voice started to sound wrong.

"That's... an Asian with the same yellow skin as us, a native of Sakura."

Chen Yan's heart skipped a beat, subconsciously thinking, is that person Ogami?
He quickly dismissed the idea.

Chen Yan once heard from his third uncle that the ninjas of Ying Country had gathered together to form a detective club on the surface, but in fact it was a hiring organization for a killer group.

The third uncle also hinted to him at that time that if he didn't like anyone, the third uncle could help contact the ninja killer guild in Yingguo.

Guaranteed to live well and cheaply, leaving no hidden dangers.

Ogami is not the only ninja in Yanan City.

There was still sound coming from the phone's microphone.

"The man was carrying two knives."

fuck...

It's really Ogami!

Chen Yan shook his head vigorously.

No, he remembered that there seems to be a saying in Ying Country that the more powerful a ninja or samurai is, the more knives he can control. There are two-sword style and three-sword style.

The ninja of the two swords style is not so rare!

Subconsciously, Chen Yan was unwilling to believe that Ogami was involved in the dispute in the lower city.

Since Ohgami lived in his apartment, he couldn't get Ohgami away.

This means that if Ogami is really involved in the disputes between the superhumans, it will definitely affect Chen Yan's life to some extent.

"He still has one hand...a prosthetic hand."

Chen Yan's eyes darkened.

"That prosthetic hand is very strange, it can be seen at a glance that it is an ordinary item, without any extraordinary aura...

But it feels dangerous.

I feel like I can't take my eyes off that prosthetic hand for a moment, once I leave, that thing will kill me..."

Xanthium interrupted him for the first time:

"Please describe in detail, what does that prosthetic hand look like?"

The man thought:
"It's bony."

His tone is sure.

"The bone prosthetic hand is hollow, and the precise mechanism can be clearly seen in it... Well, you know, it is the kind of mechanism that is used to 'fire arrows' similar to hand crossbows."

"In addition to the machine extension, there is also an obvious gear transmission, which is very similar to a small structure in a steam engine."

The cocklebur in the picture nodded.

"You know a lot."

The man let out a hoarse sneer:

"Ashamed to say, I'm studying engineering at Miskatonic University on High Street... I've seen the structure of the prosthetic hand in a book."

Xanthium said: "Please continue."

The man nodded:

"After the ninja came in, everyone looked at him.

He also scanned everyone.

With a surprised and stunned expression on his face, he turned his head and glanced at the door—I bet he wanted to leave at that moment.

But for some reason, he ended up staying. "

The man's voice became panicked.

"The big guys didn't talk, and he didn't talk.

The atmosphere in the Butterfly Feifei bar is even heavier than the public cemetery in Nan City.

The surprise and astonishment on his face gradually disappeared.

Then he drew his knife. "

Xanthium was surprised: "He drew the knife without even saying a word?

How is this possible?
Since he was here, he must know who was sitting in the bar.

Is he courting death? "

The man wanted to answer, but the cocklebur didn't have the patience to continue listening.

"Needless to say, I'll see for myself."

In the spirit vision camera, on the window, the shadow of cocklebur suddenly stood up.

He casually picked up a sickle or something like that from his side, waved his hand and stabbed it into the man's head.
