this is not a joke

"left!?"

The scavenger girl felt that threat suddenly disappeared, and could no longer find a trace in her own city.

Surprised, she also took out the bowl she had placed in her arms, and threw it upside down on the ground.

Not long after, the bowl shattered, and Lin Rui's shadow appeared on the ground, lying flat and motionless.

After a while, the shadow struggled a bit, and gradually became real, which was Lin Rui's real body.

At this moment, at the gate of the community where Lin Rui lived, Lin Rui, who was curled up on the ground and seemed to be dead, disappeared bit by bit, and turned into an illusion.

However, Lin Rui's girlfriend, Shen Lu, who was unconscious at the gate of the community, was real, but the scavenger girl could only protect one at the critical moment just now, so she ignored Shen Lu's life and death.

Fortunately, the grandfather is not interested in Shen Lu, and he is not even disgusted with Shen Lu, because if it were not for the previous contact between Shen Lu and Lin Rui, he would not have known that the pawn he had planted had grown to such a powerful level.

It's just that when he thought of destroying this chess piece with his own hands, his father felt sorry.

It's just that this kind of heartache is nothing compared to his own plan.

After confirming that there was no longer any threat in the city, the scavenger girl didn't let the strange talk she set up go away, but still stood ready.

Because the Zongfu's appearance just now was too sudden, and there was no sign before, which shows that the opponent's strength is so strong that he has the means to make himself undetectable, so this has to be guarded against.

"Are you okay?" The scavenger girl looked into Lin Rui's eyes.

Lin Rui came to his senses, rubbed his forehead, shook his head and said, "It's okay, thank you!"

At this time, life in the entire black and white city returned to normal again, everyone was doing their own things, and they didn't notice the sudden suspension of all staff just now.

When the scavenger girl remembered her grandfather's face, she asked Lin Rui: "I can clearly feel that the man is a human being, but why do I feel like I have encountered a great horror in the world of ghost stories? Also, he looks very similar to you Very similar."

Lin Rui was silent.

He didn't know how to answer, he was not only confused, but also confused and uncontrollable frustrated that he was just a pawn.

After living for so long, from the time his parents were killed, to growing up in a daze, and being trapped in his childhood because of his mental confusion, if he hadn't met Wei An, he might have been trapped in that mentality forever.

This made Lin Rui suspect that this was done intentionally by his father, in order to trap himself in the greenhouse, waiting for him to harvest.

Not only am I not considered a human being, I am not even considered an ordinary resident in this strange world and this black and white city. At least the ordinary residents here can live a normal life most of the time and can control their own lives.

"I'll notify Wei'an immediately." The scavenger girl could see Lin Rui's confusion, she stopped asking, but changed her words: "Before he arrives, you are always with me, and you can't leave half a step."

"You suspect that man...hasn't left yet?" Lin Rui became worried again.

The scavenger girl nodded: "I have to guard against it. Because that man gives me a feeling that I can't kill him!"

"Hurry up and notify Uncle Wei, as long as Uncle Wei comes..." Lin Rui was startled when he said this, "Where's Shen Lu?"

"Don't worry, she's just in a coma," said the scavenger girl.

The whole black and white city was temporarily quiet.

All the strange stories that were dispatched have also returned to calm, but the strange stories in the entire city are no longer in operation for the time being, and they no longer absorb humans as usual to maintain energy absorption.

Lin Rui and Shen Lu, who had woken up, waited by the scavenger girl all day long, staying with her in the dilapidated three-story building.

On the third day, the scavenger girl suddenly asked, "Did you smell a strange smell?"

Lin Rui and Shen Lu shook their heads at the same time.

The scavenger girl said: "It's not a smell, but a... feeling, similar to a smell."

Shen Lu was still sniffing around, while Lin Rui activated her powerful sensory ability.

But after sensing for a while, his feeling was the same as that of the scavenger girl, or even worse. He could feel a strangeness, but he couldn't tell what it was.

If the scavenger girl hadn't brought it up, Lin Rui believed she wouldn't have noticed this subtle feeling.

"There are oddities, but not too obvious."

The scavenger girl shook her head: "This is my city, I know every speck of dust here, this weird feeling doesn't belong to Black and White City, it should be from outside... um, no!"

Speaking of this, the scavenger girl frowned tightly: "Could it be... my city is rotting!?"

She raised her head slightly, and suddenly she frowned, and said, "Here we are, Wei An is here."

At this time, in the black-and-white city at night, on the road outside the three-storey old building, a silver-gray car was parked beside it. Scavengers, Lin Rui, and Shen Lu.

"They found out?" Wei An looked serious.

Not long after leaving the old house of the Tale Boy, he received a message from the scavenger girl, which was sensed by his father.

I have to say that the current father, Wei Zhengdong, is getting stronger and stronger, and his sensitivity to ghost stories is unrivaled. Even if he is asked to search for ghost stories within a certain range, he doesn't need to rely on any detectors anymore. Regardless of the type, level, or degree of danger of ghost stories, he can almost recognize them.

After Wei An and Pei Na entered the room, Lin Rui simply told Wei An and Pei Na what happened here.

After learning that not only Menno's avatar from Hell's Gate appeared, but also the real body of the paternal father, Wei'an and Pei Na were surprised, and they also felt fear in their hearts.

It is mainly based on their understanding of the patriarch, knowing that this person is extremely extraordinary, and he is able to plant chess pieces like Lin Rui in the world of ghost stories, and I don't know how many other methods have not been discovered.

Just based on his plan to plant chess pieces, the strength of the patriarch gives people a sense of unpredictability.

The scavenger girl also told about the abnormality she had just discovered. Wei An nodded, closed his eyes and sensed it, but he couldn't feel anything.

In terms of sensing ability alone, he can't even compare with Lin Rui, let alone the scavenger girl who controls the city.

But Wei An pondered for a while, walked out of the corridor on the third floor, and looked up at the night sky.

The others didn't know what he was doing, they just followed him to the corridor, and the scavenger girl also looked up at the night sky.

She suddenly paused slightly, and said in surprise: "How do I feel that there is power stopping me?!"

Having said that, in fact, the scavenger girl at this moment can still look up at the sky completely without any obvious restrictions. What she is talking about is just a feeling of sudden discovery.

Lin Rui also looked up at the night sky, his neck visibly paused, and he was able to wait and see normally.

Shen Lu, on the other hand, only lifted her head halfway, but couldn't lift it up again, and she was surprised.

"We, or this city and you, have been exposed!" Wei An said slowly. (end of this chapter)
