Trying to pretend to be human today

Chapter 348 Rent
Bai Su stood on the street.

He came out to look at the house today.

At least in name, the excuse was to look at the house, and he declined the curly-haired young man's attentive companionship.

Just kidding, if he brings out humans, An Xiangwen will have to follow him wherever he goes. I have never seen such a clingy human being.

A few days ago, Bai Sudu was wandering around the city with the appearance of a monk. Since his face was better concealed and he even found a hat to put on his head, he did not attract the attention of the special department until an accident. Exposed to surveillance.

Face recognition is a magical function.

The special department suddenly became alert. The impression of the monk frequently appearing in several black sludge active locations on the eve of the doppelganger incident was still vivid in his mind. It was unclear what the other party's intentions were, so the special department couldn't help but send some people to trace the existence of the monk's appearance.

However, what does the human pursuit of the monk have to do with him?
After being chased by humans several times, the monster gave up its appearance as a monk and took on the appearance of Baisu and went out openly.

The house needs to be viewed, and other things need to be done.

In order to find the best value for money in his new residence, the black-haired young man considered it over and over again. During the chat introduced by the housing agent, he pulled the person aside and asked in a low voice: "Is there a house like that?"

The agent didn't understand it at first, so he blinked twice: "What's it like?"

"That's it -" the black-haired young man drawled out two words slowly, "Haunted house."

After saying these two words, what he wanted to say became much smoother. Bai Su said that he wanted to see some low-priced and cheap houses, even if they were a little unclean, that would be no problem.

In other words, the more aggressive the better, but for fear of scaring away the human intermediary, Bai Su didn't say the last half of the sentence.

Perhaps it was the first time I met such a straightforward client. The agent's eyes flickered, and he responded hesitantly: "Ah? Are you...are you serious?"

"Yes." Bai Su nodded, with a serious look in his black eyes, "If there is any suitable house, please recommend it."

The agent was eerily silent.

There is such a house... there is.

Moreover, it was so vicious that all the surrounding residents who could move were moved away, leaving only three or two kittens, all of whom had no conditions to move out.

When seeing customers with special requirements, the intermediary confirmed it again and again before taking out the housing information that met Baisu's conditions.

"In this family, a family of three was once attacked and killed."

Considering that the topic was a bit dangerous, the agent took Bai Su to another place to talk.

Bai Su listened to the initial introduction and nodded slightly.

He was familiar with the idea of ​​annihilating the family. Something similar happened to the villa where he was invited to live broadcast before. The people who lived there all died tragically inexplicably. After tracing the source, they found that the basement was somewhat mysterious.

But now this is an ordinary murder. According to the agent, the murderer was mentally ill. The murder scene was bloody, which made the people who cleaned the house collapse for a long time.

The ceiling, walls, floor gaps... there was red solidified liquid everywhere.

Later residents said that they saw red human figures seeping out from the walls in various places in the house, two large and one small, which happened to be the three members of the family who died that year.

After scaring away two or three subsequent residents, the house became notoriously sinister. Others said that the dead family of three turned into earthbound spirits and stayed in the house. They wanted to seek revenge on the murderer.

The agent spoke vividly and occasionally used exaggerated body language to describe the situation.

Bai Su listened as if listening to a story, then he touched his chin.

It feels like... there is a high probability that there is something wrong with the house, but it is just a bit of a problem.

After all, you see, none of the subsequent residents had any accidents. At most, they were frightened to the point of losing their minds. After a short rest, they would have the sequelae of insomnia.

Bai Su flipped through the information and settled on the next time to go see the house with the agent.

It's not that the agent didn't want to take Bai Su to see it, the agent seemed to want to sell it quickly. The house had been listed with them for so long, but Bai Su, who wanted to rent a house, had something to do in the afternoon.

"Then...are you okay with this date?" The agent looked at the calendar.

Bai Su thinks it's okay. He should be free tomorrow.

It's still too early to leave the real estate agency's small street store.

The black-haired young man studied the driving distance, arrived at the branch door more than half an hour later, swiped the access card and walked in.

He was put on leave for a long time after the last mission to Wenjiacun.

In fact, it was mainly to give other humans traveling together a vacation, adjust their condition, and repair the physical or psychological damage suffered by the group in Wenjia Village. Bai Su was just there by the way.

Of course, monsters don't need to recuperate.

After passing the window where the policeman on duty was sitting, Bai Su walked straight towards the archives room. When passing by the civilian staff's office, he bumped into someone walking out of it.

Coincidentally, that was a human woman that Bai Su could name.

The human woman who tied her tail into a ponytail was stunned for a moment and shouted: "Baisu?"

Bai Su blinked and nodded in response: "Hello."

Qi Zhuyue looked left and right and found that other colleagues were still busy, and there seemed to be nothing urgent.

So, why does Baisu appear here?

In Qi Zhuyue's impression, the black-haired young man has the characteristic of not going to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Ever since he returned from Wenjia Village, except for the day when he heard that the other party's house was burned down, he came to the bureau for a formality. Tian Tian moved out of the dormitory arranged by the bureau.

It was said that they were staying at a friend's house. Only a few of Bai Su's friends were listed on the list, and the result was quickly ruled out - it was An Xiangwen.

An Xiangwen's resume, which was searched in the police station's system, was ordinary. He seemed to have been unlucky a while ago. Whenever he stayed with Bai Su, he was mostly involved in supernatural incidents.

Who is more unlucky?After looking at Baisu’s superior experience, it may be Baisu.

"Why are you here?" Qi Zhuyue took a step outside and closed the office door behind her back, blocking out their voices. "Do you have a job? I rarely see you here. …”

Bai Su tilted his head and asked, "You are the one, aren't you on vacation recently?"

He has not been to humans since he received the news. He originally thought that humans were similar to him, but now it seems that is not the case.

Qi Zhuyue looked away and said, "I can't take any time off."

Not only was she unable to take time off, she was also unable to take time off like Xia Chengyin and Tang Nuo. After a few days of rest, she returned to work. However, she could not go out to the field and spent most of her time in the bureau, doing remote command work.

However, Qi Zhuyue is slightly different.

She would always have random thoughts when she was quiet, and as she kept thinking, she felt that it would be better to use work to numb herself. When her brain was occupied, she would naturally not think of some possibilities that she shouldn't think about.

Bai Su looked at Qi Zhuyue with strange eyes, which seemed to say that he didn't expect human beings to love work so much.

Qi Zhuyue seemed to understand, but did not defend herself. She thought it would be good to let the misunderstanding continue like this.

Then it was Bai Su's turn to answer. He said he was here to check the information.

"material?"

"Yes, it's related to Tuochuan." Bai Su said it bluntly without concealing his intention, which made Qi Zhuyue look twice.

The human female remembered that Bai Su seemed to have looked through this kind of information in their bureau before, and it was still in her name.

She was so confused, so she asked: "Didn't you read them all?"

"Huh? Are those all there?" Bai Su asked in confusion, "Are there no new things?"

Qi Zhuyue was confused: "What's new?"

Bai Su pointed out something: "It's about the recent fire, don't you know?"

Question marks almost appeared on the human woman's head. She was so busy working to stop herself from thinking about the "culprit" in front of her that she had no time to pay attention to other things.

"That's it -" Bai Su said about the place he rented that was exploded and burned to the ground, "there is a shadow of Tuochuan in it, don't you know?"

Qi Zhuyue doesn't know.

When the human female returned to work, the fire incident had almost been handed over to other departments. She had not had much contact with it, and no one took the initiative to inform her or go out of her way to find out.

How could she know that the fire that burned down Baisu's residence was related to a cult.

"Anyway, that's pretty much the situation. I want to look through the information again." After starting, the black-haired young man did not go on to say everything, but ended directly, "I am about to go to the archives room."

"Uh... I think there is a high chance that you won't be able to find new ones when you go." Qi Zhuyue said, "The archived information will not be handed over until very late. The most recent ones should not be available yet."

After hearing this, Bai Su stopped there and made a gesture to let others continue talking.

"That is to say..." Qi Zhuyue took a deep breath, "Um, do you remember the team leader who asked you to go to the auto repair shop in the next province before?"

The black-haired young man raised his knuckles against his chin, pretending to think.

After a long while, Bai Su replied: "I remember."

In fact, he didn't have many encounters with the team leader. Instead, it was the human male who drove him there that impressed him most.

Counting the days, his recent life should no longer be unlucky, right?

Qi Zhuyue nodded, shook her head, and finally sighed and continued: "Well, that squad leader is a bit at odds with our Gu team, and you are on our side..." Teams and factions are really different. Very complicated situation.

The black-haired young man nodded in understanding: "That means I'm going to find him now..."

Qi Zhuyue suddenly interrupted: "Wait a minute, what I mean is that you will definitely be embarrassed if you go to find him!"

The black-haired young man tilted his head and replied: "Oh?"

A gentle sound struck the heart of a human woman, making all the surrounding sounds go away from her. For such a short moment, Qi Zhuyue blinked. She was still standing in this corridor, and the noise resumed. enveloped her.

"Ah..." Qi Zhuyue, who always felt that something had just happened but couldn't remember it, opened her mouth. After a few seconds, she suggested, "If you really want to find out, why don't you go to the headquarters... Why are you staring? I read?"

Halfway through her words, the human woman couldn't help but take a half step back under the scorching gaze from the opposite party, and her heels touched the door panel.

Bai Su stared at the human directly, as if he was considering something.

Qi Zhuyue is right. It seems more convenient to go to the human headquarters, but in terms of time... it may be a bit late...

After much thought, Bai Su decided on human women.

"Qi Zhuyue." The black-haired young man suddenly shouted, "Can you drive?"

"Ah? Ah... yes." Qi Zhuyue responded reflexively, "But I -"

The black-haired young man clapped his hands crisply, with a smile on his face: "Can you please send me there?"

"Eh? Wait... wait a minute!"

"So, since you are a regular employee, your authority must be higher than mine, right? Then I'll trouble you."

"Wait..." Don't talk to yourself!

Ten minutes later, Qi Zhuyue touched the steering wheel with both hands, sat in the bureau's car, waited in front of a red light, and fell into deep thought.

Why did things become like this?

The human woman deeply reflected on herself. She had no idea why she was being led away by the nose. The black-haired young man clapped his hands and walked forward on his own. Qi Zhuyue couldn't care about anything else and went back to the office to get it. If you get something, stop someone.

Then, with a few words of advice, she followed the others downstairs and looked at Bai Su and... Qiao Jiang?After chatting with the inhumanly beautiful woman for a few words, the latter ran to the staff on duty to borrow the car keys.

With his magical appearance, he borrowed the car keys easily, and it was even a difficult car to borrow in the bureau.

Qi Zhuyue took the key with a dull face and sat on the driver's seat. She just inserted the key and stepped on the accelerator. After driving far away, she came to her senses.

The car stopped at a red light.

Qi Zhuyue couldn't help but look sideways at the black-haired young man sitting beside her.

Bai Su didn't sit in the back seat this time. He sat down directly in the passenger seat and fiddled with his phone with his head down.

From Qi Zhuyue's perspective, he couldn't see clearly what was displayed on the phone screen. Judging from the frequency of tapping the screen, he should be chatting with someone.

The car started and stopped along the way, and Qi Zhuyue often hesitated to speak, but in the end she didn't say anything and sent the person to the headquarters.

After swiping Qi Zhuyue's card and filling in Qi Zhuyue's name, Bai Su followed the human woman with a swaying ponytail, just like an ordinary follower.

But after entering the archives, he changed his mind and regarded himself as the owner of the archives. He flipped through the relevant shelves one by one at a speed that would make humans stunned.

Did he understand?Did he remember it?Onlookers couldn't help but think.

There was only so much time left to enter the archives. Just when Qi Zhuyue felt that Bai Su couldn't finish it, he turned the last moment for a few seconds and closed the last page.

Then the black-haired young man put down the book and turned around, walking back to the human woman and motioning to return the things.

Qi Zhuyue was urged to leave, and she returned the borrowed files in a daze. When she walked outside the headquarters again, the sky was still quite bright.

It seemed...it seemed like it was enough for her to go back and return the car and go out for a meal.

Just when Qi Zhuyue looked towards Bai Su, she found that the black-haired young man had no intention of following her and was walking away alone.

It took a long time to walk outside from the remote place of the headquarters. Qi Zhuyue was about to say hello when Bai Su waved his hand and said he was waiting for someone to pick him up.

Who, who's coming to pick him up?
This question was quickly answered.

Qi Zhuyue stayed at the headquarters for a while. Her boss asked her to do something. After she drove away from the territory belonging to the special department headquarters, she saw a black-haired young man on the roadside who should have left on foot a long time ago and got into a car. car.

Before he bent down to get into the car, he glanced upward with his black eyelashes, and happened to catch the probing gaze of the human woman.

Then, his black eyes bent and he smiled.
