Trying to pretend to be human today

Chapter 294

What Bai Su said about not going far means that he himself didn't go very far.

After all, there are still fish-like villagers walking in the rain, and he has no plans to start monsters yet.

It's not that he can't fight, but if there are a few people in the village for no reason, it will cause commotion.

He can avoid it, but there are too many "red monsters" scattered in the village. If he avoids them all, he can only float in mid-air or walk from the roofs where humans live.

The black-haired young man who hadn't walked far was bathed in the rain. He squatted on the roof of an unknown house, listening to the raindrops and the ticking sound of bricks and tiles.

Excluding the wandering fisheye villagers and the subtle smell from the wind and rain, the white noise brought by the rainy day is actually quite suitable for sleeping.

The black-haired young man squeezed the water from the end of his hair, wiped his face casually, hooked his feet to a corner of the eaves, and leaned upside down to the window.

There is no road facing the outside where he hangs. If he doesn't make some noise, the patrolling fish-eyed villagers will not approach.

The windows of modern humans are not made of the material that can be broken with a poke in ancient times, but for Baisu, cutting the glass is just a matter of moving a finger.

However, he did not choose to cut a bowl-sized opening for the window.

He didn't want the village to be noisy tomorrow because someone was missing, but instead to be targeted by the villagers because of a non-existent thief, the most suspicious outsider.

He's fine, but if human beings are tied up, won't there be no one to solve the riddle for him?
The black-haired young man who didn't want to take a shortcut to break the ground with violence touched the window frame.

He put his fingertips there, and after a few seconds, he grabbed the window and opened it with force, letting hot air pour out from inside.

A corner of the curtain was lifted, and an eyeball sneaked in from behind.

The white line behind the eyeballs stretched as far as possible, as if patrolling the territory, the eyeballs surveyed the room from a height.

There were two people sleeping in the room, an adult woman and a five or six-year-old male child. They should be a mother-child relationship.

The two were covered with thick quilts, and the electrical appliances in the corner of the room were blowing warm air slowly. It was actually a little early to turn on the air conditioner this season, but some people couldn't help it because they were afraid of the cold and wanted to enjoy it in advance.

But this is not the reason why Baisu stays in this room.

He stayed because of the smell.

Amongst the fishy smell pouring down from the rainwater, there were just a few wisps of sweet and edible smell, so Baisu picked the nearest one and leaned over.

The one big and one small in the room gave Baisu a sense similar to that of Gao Tianyi's round-faced classmate, specifically referring to the individual found in the hospital building.

It can be eaten, but it is no longer human anyway.

Sniffing the delicious smell on the tip of his nose, the black-haired young man hung upside down without looking back. He opened his palms back and let the black shadow emerging from the tree crown hit his palm.

Then the hands were retracted, squeezed, and the black mud was caught like this. After struggling in vain, it ended up in Baisu's mouth.

The black-haired young man retracted his eyes, helped the human to close the window, and sat back on the top of the eaves.

He licked the tips of his teeth that still had the taste of food after eating, his eyes darting back and forth from left to right.

On the left is a dense forest that looks extremely deep at night. The place where the inhuman mother and son live is the edge of the village.

On the right is the small path in the village, and the shaking flashlight is slowly moving from the door.

Where to go next?The black-haired young man thought with some distress.

Just as he had pondered whether to go outside in the human yard before, he sat on the roof and drenched in the rain for a while, then jumped down.

The direction of the jump is towards the side of the forest, and it lands on the ground as lightly as a cat. The adult body less than 1.8 meters is so light that it seems to be weightless.

The black-haired youth stepped on the ground, and it could be said to be floating there.

Not a single footprint was left on the muddy ground, and the man just disappeared into the woods.

When Baisu reappeared, he stood by the side of the road.

The bright sky shone on him, taking away the little bit of moisture, but his hair was still wet, and his clothes would not be far from drying after a while in the sun.

There are bits of grass clippings and mud on the shoes and trouser legs. If you don't look carefully, you can't tell the difference.

He pretended to be an early riser and chatted with passing villagers before returning to his place of residence.

All the above itineraries were summarized in a few words in Baisu's mouth. He didn't run far, but just walked around the place where he lived.

"It's raining too much." The black-haired young man said, "I braved the rain and walked for a while, and I could see many lights in the village looming and moving."

It was not difficult to deduce that those were all villagers with flashlights, Baisu followed suit, because the lights in the village were too dense, he retreated.

Afterwards, I lingered under the shade of the trees near the yard. I wanted to see if the next villager came over. Unexpectedly, not only were there no villagers, but even the black mud disappeared.

——There are people patrolling the village at night.

Humanity immediately came to this conclusion.

As for other parts of what Baisu said, human beings have reservations, such as the point of only staying around the village.

If they were all standing under the tree, where would the humidity be in the clothes?

Humidity...Speaking of it...the young man wearing glasses remembered something and gestured to his companion.

Baisu slightly corrected his lazily sitting posture with his head propped up, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

In the next second, with an ominous premonition test, the inch-headed police officer received instructions from his companion, moved his wrist twice, and hooked his hand at Baisu.

"It's cold from the rain for so long." The human male showed a kind smile, "Come on, let me boil the water for you, go take a hot bath."

This house is good for living everywhere, but the water heater is a little bit faulty.

Baisu always felt that the human beings didn't care about that, but he followed the other party's words and stood up.

Xia Chengyin, who said that he would boil water for him, just fiddled with the water heater quietly, and didn't know where to press it. It seemed that he had learned the craft from that master Zhang, and soon the water heater was fiddled with.

"Okay, you go in, remember to close the doors and windows, don't be like Qi Zhuyue did yesterday."

The policeman with an inch-length watch watched the black-haired young man walk in, making sure he could hear the sound of water. After seeing the white mist rising from the glass window, the human turned around and left.

Back in the previous room, Xia Chengyin and Tang Nuo quickly communicated.

"Do you believe it?"

"Believe it, I didn't lie."

"I see...but I think it's kind of weird."

The inch-headed policeman was lost in thought and memory. He rummaged through his memory and asked his companion as if to prove it: "Did Baisu...have never been judged as a liar by you?"

Tang Nuo followed Xia Chengyin's wishes, as if that was the case.

He has been working as a lie detector since he first met Baisu, and he also worked as a lie detector several times due to supernatural events. After Baisu entered a special department to work part-time, he was still working as a polygraph Lie instrument.

People always tell white lies.

On weekdays, during his working hours, Tang Nuo would occasionally receive feedback from his colleagues about their innocuous lies. Those feedbacks often stinged him, and he got used to it over time.

Now that he was pointed out by Xia Chengyin, he opened the feedback of the ability that was neglected in daily life.

The past cannot be traced, because it is too far away, and it is more convenient to compare the present.

Even though he was a fool like Xia Chengyin, he lied when chatting with the people in the village after entering the village, not to mention that they came in with false identities.

Their itinerary is full of lies.

The young man wearing glasses was silent for a moment, and then said: "Since Baisu entered the village..." Is what he said must be a lie?

The term "caifeng" is very ambiguous, maybe Baisu really thinks so in his heart?
Regarding everything about the whole fish feast last night...human beings think, based on their little understanding of Baisu, they may be speaking from their hearts.

He really felt that yesterday's meal was delicious.

After thinking about it for a while, Baisu's only story about traveling in the rain at night was more suspicious, but they were still in their sleep, so they couldn't confirm it.

After thinking about it, the answer is that there is no conclusion.

"Then—" Gao Tianyi, who was listening to the exchange between the two, interjected, "For the time being, I think what I said is the truth, anyway, the video must be true."

The technical requirements for counterfeiting are too high and it is meaningless.

The young man raised his hand: "Is it time to discuss our dreams next?"

He had a bunch of things he wanted to say, and it suffocated him to death.

……

The black-haired youth exhaled melancholy under the hot water.

Humans are really hard to deal with.

The monster didn't take off his clothes, just squatted in the bathroom, hugging his knees, thinking that he really didn't have a few truths to tell humans.

Tang Nuo had long expected that Tang Nuo's polygraph-like ability would arouse suspicion from humans, but he did not expect it to be exposed as soon as he entered the village.

Who knew that human beings were so... weak.

The black-haired young man sighed again, the temperature of the spray pouring down from his head gradually became colder, and it was obvious that the water heater outside was out of order again.

I didn't call humans to come and repair it, so the monster wouldn't catch a cold anyway.

Whether it is raining or soaking in hot water, at most the external skin will change a little.

Even if it is soaking in magma - well, this possibility is relatively small.

Baisu plucked the hair covering his eyes twice, then he stood up and decided to pay more attention to communication with humans in the future.

Truth and lies or something, as long as it is not proven.

The naked skin was exposed to the cold water, and the completely soaked clothes were taken off and thrown aside. According to human beings, they wanted to study whether the rainwater was polluted.

But after soaking in ordinary water... the black-haired young man blinked, pretending nothing happened, and closed the clothes basket.

The water connected to the left and right villages is not ordinary tap water, but it is not as sudden as rain.

After turning off the faucet, he casually wiped his body with the towel placed on the counter. During this process, he also pressed down a few of his naughty exposed eyeballs.

In any case, a human body crawling over eyeballs in inappropriate areas in the mirror is a nasty sight, but luckily no one in the bathroom saw it.

Perhaps because he felt that the drying efficiency was too slow, the human appearance used by the black-haired youth melted like water, and the whole person transformed into a white model.

The blank body trembled slightly, and honeycomb-shaped holes were about to bulge out, and the appearance of "White Su" was covering it in the next moment.

The black-haired young man who reappeared blinked in the mirror, opened his mouth again, and checked the distribution of his teeth to make sure that none of them were crooked.

In the end, Baisu put on a change of clothes, and went to the humans with a refreshing appearance.

When he walked into the room, he happened to see Gao Tianyi slapping the table and stepping on it.

The position was a bit uncomfortable for a teenager of his height, so he jumped onto the chair first, then stepped on the table.

"So - we must go to that lake to see!" Gao Tianyi said loudly, "That lake must be the key clue."

"Lake, what lake?" The later Baisu didn't hear the first half of the story.

"It's just..." Qi Zhuyue's complexion recovered a lot, "We had a dream last night."

Qi Zhuyue, Tang Nuo and Gao Tianyi were all in the same dream.

Baisu nodded. He had heard of this when he first came back, but then humans began to watch the videos he took, and the topic of dreams was put aside for the time being.

Now that the topic is back on, Qi Zhuyue and Tang Nuo couldn't get out of the gate of the courtyard in their dream, so they explored in the house and found a huge fish tank in the room where the sundries were placed.

Human beings have just checked that although the utility room in reality does not have the glass panels for splicing fish tanks, there are indeed traces of disassembly on the door frame.

And Gao Tianyi—as a young Wen Tao in the dream—talked about his experience after going out with Wen Tao's friends in the dream.

From the trail leading from the village to the woods to the lake, with nearly 20 years of time difference, the marks on the trees should have been difficult to recognize.

But it doesn't matter, Gao Tianyi claimed that he wrote down the path from the village, as long as the structure of the village doesn't change much, he can—

"There must have been changes." Xia Chengyin interrupted Gao Tianyi, put away the food on the table in front of them, and spread out a map, "According to your last description, the village must have experienced a disaster that nearly destroyed the village." torrents."

Along with the map, the two clipped newspapers were set aside.

Calculating the age of Wen Tao's little friend in the dream, the time seems to be right.

"As for what you glimpsed in the lake... maybe it's what we need to find."

Gao Tianyi nodded in agreement. It was not in vain that he followed up in a skirt in his dream, and even dived into the lake that was so deep that a person could drown, and finally obtained useful information.

The other three people also started to discuss, Xia Chengyin who was the only one who was not dreaming was also thinking, when it was a little brighter, the people in the village would get up and move around, they could look for the way.

Find the way to the lake.

"I said." Baisu, who was studying the map with his head down, pointed to a place, and suddenly interrupted the discussion of the humans, and also attracted the attention of the humans, "There is no lake in the mountains."

"what?"

"Can't you see it?" Baisu asked strangely, once again he wondered what he saw from the human perspective.

They looked at the map many times on the way here, and even marked the different places with the latest online map.

Now, the black-haired young man picked up a pen and drew a circle around the village, and tapped the inside of the circle with the tip of the pen: "In such a large area, there is no lake at all."

"At least not on this map."

"Do you think... there is a lake here?"
