The red moon returns

Chapter 100 Imprisonment

The light and shadow changed, and Lin Qi appeared in the underground cave of Thorn Flower. He immediately took off the ring and returned to his human form.

And Maya was screaming and crawling out of the quilt, beating her body hard, as if her body was on fire. After beating for a while, she gradually stopped, looking at Lin Qi blankly, her lips trembling, but she couldn't say a word. Can't tell.

Frowning, Lin Qi asked softly: "Are you awake?"

"I seemed to have had that strange nightmare again just now. I dreamed that you turned into a burning man, and then a ball of fire suddenly fell on me and ignited me. I woke up with a fright."

Lynch sighed: "Do you often have that dream these days?"

"It's not that often, but I did have that nightmare the day before yesterday." The female reporter curled up into a ball, holding her head and whispered, "Is there something wrong with my dream? I always feel something is wrong."

"Why do you think so?"

"I had this dream the night before yesterday, and I also dreamed about the homeless people who were in the same carriage as me. I thought I just dreamed about it when I saw them before going to bed, but I just dreamed about you again, and you also Just happened to be with me. I always thought it was a little weird."

As expected of a reporter, his intuition is so sensitive that he discovered the problem at a glance. Lin Qi did not explain immediately and asked: "What about yesterday? Didn't you dream about it?"

"The dream the day before yesterday scared me, so I didn't dare to sleep yesterday. I lingered at the station entrance for a long time and checked the message board several times."

"Well, I see, what did those people you dreamed about do?"

"I don't know. I just saw them in my dream. Then I went to the temple just like the first dream. I don't know what they did after that."

After listening to Maya's addition, Lynch gradually figured out the general context of the incident.

It seemed that it was because of the dream in the cave that she was targeted by Mordiggian. Although she escaped in time, the connection had been established and there was no point in escaping further. She gradually began to transform into a ghoul. At the same time, she had not escaped from the day before yesterday. At first, you can pull people around you into dreams while sleeping.

At this time, the female reporter was nervously hugging the quilt, her fingers tearing at the fabric unconsciously. Lin Qi looked at the female reporter's cloudy and bloody eyes under the light, and suddenly remembered the same fearful and helpless mood he had felt a few days ago, and he felt a surge in his heart. soft:

"Actually, I shouldn't tell you the truth. I already understand Officer Natalie's original concerns, but you must cooperate in the following matters. It will cause unnecessary trouble, so let's make it clear."

The female reporter's breathing became a little rapid, and she tore the fabric with more force, quietly waiting for Lynch to pronounce her fate.

Lynch shook his head and told the female reporter most of the information he knew about Maya, Downey and the ghouls. Contrary to Lynch's expectation, the female reporter did not have any overreaction and just listened blankly until Lin Qi After Qi finished speaking for a long time, she sighed faintly:

"So, it's not just a matter of me turning into a monster, I'm now a walking disaster? And I've killed twelve people?"

"It's not certain yet, it's just my guess. And it wasn't you who killed him. Theoretically, you were just a medium."

The female reporter wiped the corners of her eyes and said mockingly: "So you didn't refute the description of the source of the disaster, right? Hehe, I myself feel that I am very dangerous. The safest way at this time is to shoot me on the spot." "

"It's not that simple in the mysterious world. No one knows what will happen to your condition after death. It may become more dangerous. It will be impossible to remedy it by then."

The female reporter smiled bitterly and nodded: "So what do you want me to cooperate with you for?"

"Stay here and don't run around. Except for going to the bathroom, try not to go up there." Lynch explained, "The scope of your influence after you fall asleep cannot be determined, but the janitor above was not pulled into the dream, which means that The radius of influence is smaller than the depth of this underground cave. Your staying here will not cause a greater disaster, and it will be good for you and others."

"How long will I be in self-imprisonment?" "I'm not sure, but I will seize the opportunity to find out what happened to you and help you return to a normal life. You don't have to wonder why I want to help you, first I accepted a copy Entrusted, you can teach Mordiggian a lesson. Secondly, I heard that Mordiggian usurped the divine power of death. I just need to do an experiment, so helping you is helping myself. Thirdly, rejecting others may need to find There are countless reasons, but often only one reason is enough to help others.”

"what?"

"I'm happy."

"Ha..." The monster-like mouth actually showed a human smile. The female reporter relaxed a lot, hummed softly, hugged her knees and stared at Lynch, "Okay, I am willing to cooperate, but what do you want? investigation?"

"Actually, I have found a breakthrough, but it will take enough time, so please be patient."

"I understand, then I'll be waiting for your good news. Thank you, sir." The female reporter was silent for a moment, then sighed faintly: "Actually, there are two things I concealed."

"Ok?"

"On the last night in the cave, after drinking the wine of the mountain people, I was not only sleeping, but my consciousness seemed to be wandering around, going deeper and deeper. After a long time, I arrived at the entrance of a huge cave, just like I It was like in the dream, and then something I didn’t know what it was got into my body through the hole.”

It seems that his frankness has won her complete trust, and it will be much easier to deal with in the future. Lynch breathed a sigh of relief and asked: "Where is the other one?"

"I actually heard what happened between Grant and those homeless monsters. They conspired, and Grant helped the homeless achieve his goals, while the homeless provided him with workers who didn't need to pay. Their cooperation should have started a long time ago, We know each other very well.”

Hiss, is this big capitalist going crazy? He even cooperates with monsters for money?

Lynch felt that his fists were hardened, but now his anger was just incompetent rage. He made another mental note to Grant, and then stood up.

"Officer Natalie and I will deliver meals to you every day, but to be on the safe side, we won't come down. If you have any requests, write them down on a note and put them in the elevator, and we will try our best to accommodate you."

"Okay, tell me if you have anything I can do, even though I can't do anything except write press releases. By the way, what's the reason you brought Martha to me?"

Um? Lin Qi's eyes suddenly lit up and he showed a sinister smile. Maya moved back and huddled in horror.

"No, no, no, don't be nervous. Do you want to take advantage of this period to make a big news? It is related to the conflict between the royal family and the city council, hundreds of people died, big factory owners ignored the lives of workers, and factory executives died tragically in the factory. , Speaker Grant cut off his tail to survive and separate himself from the relationship..."

Before he finished speaking, a ferocious ghoul had already rushed in front of him, holding his shoulders tightly with his hands, and his red eyes flashed fiercely with excitement.

"Quickly, tell me the details." Maya's fighting spirit almost materialized on her body. "Go get me all the newspapers from the past five days. I smell hot spots. Also tell Martha for me, Let her men be active, and I will write to them every day from now on to tell them what they are investigating, and to work hard for me, and no one is allowed to be lazy."

Lin Qi took a step back and rubbed his arms, feeling as if he had released a terrifying beast.

　It's over, it's over, this dream will be of great use later on, but I can't help it, it will be more troublesome if I don't write about it now.
