Pollution throughout the territory

Qin Yun stood next to Xia Ren, frowning as she looked at the girl's obviously malnourished body and the scars on her arms.

Xia Ren was silent for a moment and asked, "How did you know that I came to see your mother?"

The girl replied: "Every uncle who comes to my house is looking for her."

"Then do you know where your mother went when she left for the last time?"

"Probably know."

The girl paused, probably because her mouth was a little dry, and she wanted to swallow, but her body couldn't secrete too much water, so she choked and coughed a few times.

Finally calming her breathing, she said: "She probably went to the casino. She always goes there. Sometimes she goes for a day, and sometimes she doesn't come back for two or three days."

"How long have you been here this time?"

"Five or six days...I can't remember clearly."

Xia Ren asked, and the girl answered, very cooperatively.

"Where is the casino?"

"On Jinsha Street, at the end, there is a dead end. There is a door on the left inside, and that is the casino."

Xia Ren never entered the bedroom from beginning to end. Since he had gotten the news he wanted, there was no point in staying here.

But before leaving, he couldn't help but look back and asked: "Why don't you go outside?"

This question seemed a bit confusing, but he believed that the girl could understand the meaning.

The door to the room is not locked. Although a key is required to enter from the outside, from inside the house, you only need to turn the door handle slightly to get out.

Just take a few steps, get out, and be saved.

The girl raised her head and hit the back of her head on the wooden board at the head of the bed, as if she didn't answer the question: "My mother always said that when we are gone, she will be able to be relieved, and we will be able to be relieved. There will be no pain, no need to think about anything, and no need to worry."

"so……"

So even if she starved herself to death in the room, she was unwilling to go out.

No, she didn't go out because she wanted to starve herself to death.

"I remember, you have a younger brother."

Xia Ren said, looking at the girl's legs, the motionless silhouette under the quilt.

In response to this sentence, the girl just lowered her head and did not respond.

Xia Ren hesitated and said, "If you are willing, you can come with us."

The girl raised her head and smiled at them reluctantly: "Brother is a good person. But thank you."

It could be seen that she was a little moved, but still refused.

Xia Ren didn't say anything and left the room with Qin Yun.

They couldn't save the girl. The other girl had already decided to give up on the world, and no one could change it.

In the dark corridor, the only sound was the sound of two people going downstairs.

Although Qin Yun also wanted to help the little girl, she also knew her situation. Although her body could save her, it was difficult to change her mind.

Besides, they still have many troublesome things to deal with and don't have much time to worry about other things.

"Fuck you!"

Xia Ren suddenly cursed in a low voice and then returned upstairs.

If he was asked to turn a blind eye, he couldn't do it.

Qin Yun was stunned and quickly followed.

The two returned to the room on the sixth floor and reopened the bedroom door, only to see that the girl was missing from the bed.

The curtains on the balcony were opened by the cold night wind. Xia Ren walked to the balcony in a few steps and saw the window of the balcony open. The skinny girl was struggling to pick up the edge of the window, trying to turn over.

If it had been a step later, she might have jumped.

But now, she would never get another chance to find relief.

Xia Ren grabbed the clothes on her back, forced her back, and threw her to Qin Yun.

Then, he turned around and lifted the quilt off the bed, but the little boy had long since stopped breathing and was now a corpse.

Covering the quilt again, Xia Ren stared into the little girl's eyes.

"I saved you, so your life now belongs to me."

The little girl pursed her lips. There was no anger or other emotions in her eyes, and she looked as honest as a newborn lamb.

Xia Ren knew exactly what he was doing.

He never thinks that he is doing a good deed, nor does he think that he has saved anyone by doing so.

He just used violence to forcefully interfere with other people's choices to satisfy his own selfish ideas.

Twenty minutes later, the logistics department sent someone to pick up the little girl. As for the body of the girl’s brother, the police station would later handle it.

As for the girl's subsequent fate and whether she would commit suicide, Xia Ren didn't care.

"As long as you don't die in front of me."

he thinks.

…

…

Jinsha Street is an old street, so old that there are only a few households left in the entire street.

Most of the people who grew up here have aged, and the young people who have some ability have already moved to the city.

However, although it was already eleven o'clock in the evening, there were rows of luxury cars parked deep in the street, which was incompatible with the surrounding environment.

Qin Yun also parked the car on the side of the road, then got out of the car with Xia Ren, and walked forward according to the address the girl said.

"I always feel a little quiet."

Qin Yun looked around and said: "There are no casino people on the street looking out for the wind. The difference between what I feel and what I imagined is huge."

"It's normal."

Xia Ren explained: "If a casino is opened in a place like this, it is probably not afraid of being discovered by the police station. Moreover, if you look at these luxury cars, people without status cannot afford to drive them. So many people come here to play Landlords, which shows that the casino itself There is also a background. In fact, the biggest reason for opening a casino in a place like this is not the fear of being discovered by the police station, but to isolate it from the sight of ordinary people."

Before Qin Yun met Xia Ren, she had been obsessed with research. Although she was good at thinking, she still lacked a lot of social experience.

When they reached the end of the street, they saw a dead end. The entrance of this alley was very small, and there was no light inside. It was dark and seemed to blend into the surrounding walls. If you didn't pay special attention, you would easily miss it.

Xia Ren and Qin Yun looked at each other and walked into the alley.

There is actually a wooden door in the left wall.

The wooden door seemed a little thin and was not locked. Its surface was painted black, making it look very low-key.

Through the crack in the door, Xia Ren could hear the noisy atmosphere coming from inside.

The two of them opened the door, and the first thing they faced was an attendant in a suit and leather shoes. The other person is not tall, but there is a shrewd look in his eyes. He should be responsible for guiding the guests.

Two unfamiliar faces appeared outside the door. The attendant was not nervous. If it were an ordinary person, he would have kicked the other person out unceremoniously. However, the appearance and behavior of this man and woman were extraordinary, and their temperament had an indescribable quality. Being calm made the attendants keep an extra eye on themselves.

He made sure there was no one else behind these two people, so he stepped forward and asked proactively: "Do you have a membership card or any member recommendations?"

This kind of negotiation with ordinary people usually comes from Qin Yun.

She smiled and said, "No."

"It's just Mr. James who asked us to come. He's inside."

James is a person Qin Yun made up casually. I don’t know if there is a member with this name in the casino.

The waiter also felt that the name James was a bit unfamiliar, but he always felt that he had heard it somewhere.

Before he could think carefully, Qin Yun continued to ask: "Excuse me, can we go in?"

The attendant nodded repeatedly: "Of course."

In this way, the two simply sneaked into the casino.

Qin Yun's ability to confuse is almost always unfavorable when faced with ordinary people, and she rarely fails.

Xia Ren looked around the casino: "Then, the problem now is to find where the boss is."

Finding the boss directly is the most efficient way, but the boss is rarely on site, especially at this time.

If he wanted to save himself some trouble, Xia Ren could control everyone at the scene. Someone would always know the answer he wanted, but that would be particularly troublesome for the logistics department to deal with the aftermath.

At this moment, a man who rolled up his sleeves and exposed tattoos on both arms entered Xia Ren's sight.

The man walked out of the room inside the casino with a cigarette in his mouth. He walked casually and looked very familiar with the people in the casino. He talked to people everywhere as he walked.

"Hey, Tom, I see you here again. If you don't pay off your gambling debt this time, I promise to stuff a one-meter-two mortar barrel into your ass!"

"Oh, beautiful Miss White, it is such a pleasure to see you."

"God, damn Torres, look at the chips in front of you, it seems you want to put all everyone's money in your own pocket tonight."

Hall was in a good mood tonight. As the boss's most trusted subordinate, he is now in charge of running the casino.

He had just walked around his territory, and it seemed that today was a relaxing day, with nothing unusual happening.

"Do you want to play two games?"

Xia Ren asked Qin Yun beside him.

The latter's tone was a little helpless: "It's now time, it's better to get down to business first. Aren't you still feeling uncomfortable?"

"That's okay."

This is Xia Ren's first time entering a casino, and he is inevitably a little curious about the surrounding environment, but since Qin Yun is not willing, there is no point in playing alone.

Hall discovered that there were two new young faces in the casino, but they were both talented and good-looking, and they looked very high-class at first glance. He did not doubt their identities, he only thought that they should be new members introduced by others.

"The introducer didn't even say hello to me first. I wonder which old friend is so rude."

Hall thought, and was about to take the initiative to exchange a few words with the two people, but he did not expect that the other party glanced at him and then walked over.

"It's your first time here. I don't know who introduced us. I felt at first sight that we are destined to be together."

Hall greeted Xia Ren with a smile and patted Xia Ren on the shoulder familiarly, acting like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.

"Really? I also think we are very destined."

Xia Ren also smiled back and said, "Since we are so destined, then I must ask you for help, and you will definitely not refuse, right?"

Hall was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Hahaha, young people today really have a sense of humor."

"Not."

Xia Ren kept a smile on his face and said word for word: "You must help me with this, otherwise the consequences will be very serious."

"oh?"

Hall stopped his smile and his eyes became cold: "I would rather..."

Before he finished speaking, his expression changed again.

Hall's eyes widened, his brows were knitted together, his teeth were clenched, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his face was full of pain and disbelief.

Just now, Xia Ren broke the wrist of his right hand without hesitation!

But the strange thing is that Hall found that even though he tried his best, he could not make a sound from his throat, and his whole body did not obey his orders. Only the neck and above could move.

"What's going on! Who are these two guys!"

Hall yelled in his heart.

There were people bustling around him, but he couldn't call them for help.

Severe physical pain and fear from the unknown continued to erode Hall's mind, but in just a few seconds, he seemed to have experienced a century.

But this was just the beginning. He was forced to raise his head and meet Xia Ren's gaze.

In Hall's eyes, this young man's face was so perfect, so perfect that it seemed as if it should not exist in this world. But as he looked more carefully, Hall was horrified to find that this young man seemed to have become a complete stranger. With his appearance, the impression he had left in his mind was rapidly collapsing, as if every second, he was appearing in front of him with a brand new image.

That face that is so perfect that even men would be obsessed with it has made Hall feel scared. Every detail on the other person's face is full of a strong sense of disobedience, just like a carefully carved wax figure. No matter how similar it is to a human being, it is After all, they are two completely different species from humans.

Hall had collapsed to the point where he wanted to scream loudly to vent the tremendous pressure he was feeling. He realized that the person standing in front of him was definitely not a human being, but a terrifying creature disguised as a human being. It shows a false shell, and every pore on it exudes an unknown dangerous atmosphere.

Hall suspected that he had seen an illusion. At the edge of his vision, the free colored light twisted and turned into dancing soft tentacles, wrapping and devouring him. However, the gamblers around him turned a blind eye to this, or even did not notice it. Not knowing that the danger has arrived...

Just when his sanity was about to collapse, a voice brought him back to reality.

"Where is your boss?"

Xia Ren asked.

Hall came back to his senses and found that his whole body was soaked in cold sweat, his teeth kept chattering, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

He turned his neck stiffly and looked at Qin Yun beside Xia Ren, and found that she was looking at him with a smile, obviously knowing what happened just now.

These two people, no, these two, demons.

"I……"

Hall opened his mouth and couldn't help but swallow. His heartbeat was still difficult to calm down.

"I haven't seen the boss in several days."

"Um?"

Xia Ren narrowed his eyes.

He has released the control of Rootless Water. With the threat just now, the other party should have lost the ability to resist and dare not lie.

Hall was afraid that Xia Ren wouldn't believe him, so he quickly continued: "But I can call the boss. He shouldn't be asleep at this time, so I said something happened at the casino. He is very concerned about the casino. He must be Will come!"

Hall took out his mobile phone and made a call with trembling hands.

After two seconds, he looked at Xia Ren with deep fear in his eyes.

"Boss, he... turned off his phone."

"It's really not that simple..."

Xia Ren rubbed his head.

Although the infection on the tentacles had just been cleaned not long ago, the physical discomfort continued to worsen. If this continued, he and Lily didn't know how long they could last.

"Where do you think your boss usually is at this time?"

He planned to try to find it first. If it didn't work, it wouldn't be too late to contact the logistics department at that time.

And the logistics department can’t help with everything. Some simple information recorded by the government can be easily found by them, but others are like the involvement of the boss behind this casino. Even the logistics department needs to spend time investigating information about the dark side.

Hall frowned and thought hard, and replied cautiously: "Our boss usually pays great attention to the routine of work and rest. At this time, he should be at home getting ready to rest."

Xia Ren said directly: "Then take us there."

Hall hesitated for a moment, struggling in his heart. If he betrayed his boss, he might die after tonight, but if he refused the order of the young man in front of him, he could guarantee that he would not survive tonight.

Whether you die later or die now, you don’t need to consider this multiple-choice question. Who doesn’t want to live longer? Even if it's just for a few hours.

Under the leadership of Hall, Xia Ren and the others walked out of the casino.

Qin Yun was still driving, and Hall was responsible for guiding the way. Xia Ren sat in the passenger seat, sorting out what he had experienced today. The car was very quiet.

"Has your boss done anything strange recently?"

Xia Ren suddenly asked.

Hall quickly cheered up, recalled it carefully, and replied vaguely: "When you said that, I remembered that the boss has been a little different recently, but I can't tell clearly..."

Xia Ren asked: "Has he come into contact with any strange people?"

"weirdo……"

Hall replied: "There should be no strange people, but three days ago, when I last saw the boss, I found him talking to himself against the wall alone."

"say something?"

"this……"

Such a long time had passed, and Hall didn't pay much attention at the time. How could he possibly answer this question when he was suddenly asked about it.

But looking at the other person's expression, if you can't tell the truth, the consequences may be very serious.

In fact, this is also the case. Xia Ren is already considering whether to use ice slaves. After all, the ice slaves are 100% obedient to him and inherit all the memories of the deceased without any mistakes.

Dead people are more obedient than living people and cannot lie.

Hall racked his brains and finally remembered some of the details at that time and said, "I remember it!"

He raised his head slightly, showing an expression of recollection, and said: "What I heard the boss talking about at that time was something transcendent...the quality that passes through time and space...the great Holy Spirit...and so on, the boss's mental state at the time It seems a bit strange, giving people a...vaguely crazy feeling."

"Something beyond?"

Xia Ren grasped the key points keenly.

Sure enough, there is a causal relationship between this unknown sect and the aberrant body in the morning!

"Do you know a woman named Jenny?"

Xia Ren continued to ask, while handing Jenny's photo to Hall.

When the latter saw the photo, his expression changed a little, and he subconsciously denied it: "No, I don't know him."

"You'd better tell the truth."

Xia Ren's tone was calm, no emotion could be heard, but it was full of threats.

Hall shrank his neck, not daring to hide any more, and said: "Jenny, she has been in our casino for a long time. At first, it seemed that she had just given birth and was tricked by her boyfriend to pay off her debt. But gambling is something that once Ordinary people simply can't control themselves.

At that time, Jenny was still young and good-looking, so although she often played Landlord and lost a lot of money, she could always pay it back. However, in recent years, she had lost more and more money and owed a large debt. By the way, she has two children, the eldest is a daughter and the younger is a boy. I saw her eldest daughter when she came to the casino to see her a few years ago, but I haven’t seen her in the past two years, and the younger son has never met her even once. never seen it. "

"anything else?"

Xia Ren asked.

Hall was still a little hesitant, but the fear that Xia Ren brought to him was so profound that he still told the truth: "During this time, the boss suddenly told me to find a group of gambling worms with little background and ability. It would be best to Even if the seeds disappear, they won’t attract too much attention. It seems that they are going to use them to make a business. I knew roughly what was going on when I heard it, but I didn’t dare to ask in detail, so..."

"Just tie up those people and hand them over to the boss?"

Xia Ren sneered.

Hall lowered his head and dared not speak.

"Qin Yun, speed up a little bit."

"OK."

As the words fell, Qin Yun also stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, the engine roared, and the car raced on the street at a faster speed.

Xia Ren always felt a little uneasy. What happened this time made him feel a little familiar.

A heretic organization once appeared in Dongpu City. Although it was quickly eliminated, the negative impact they brought is still threatening the safety of all mankind to this day, that is - atypical insect phobia.

The aberrant body appeared in the morning at the entrance of a densely populated hospital. The blue powder released by the aberrant body was only a little bit contaminated by his tentacles, and it turned into what it is now. Even Xiu Even Guts' powerful body could not completely digest the aberration, and was instead eroded by it.

This powerful contagion...

Xia Ren looked out the window. The street lights at night kept flying back. In the invisible darkness, danger might have quietly arrived.

"I hope I'm worrying too much."

Atypical entomophobia has not yet been resolved. If a new type of plague emerges, even the Foundation and the Superman Association may not be able to resist it.

With chaotic thoughts, they arrived at their destination.

This is a high-end community located in the center of Soli. The greening around the community is very good. Even in the bustling downtown, it is difficult to attract the attention of ordinary people. From a distance, it looks like a park. Same.

Hall often comes here to help the main boss handle affairs, so he has an access card, and the three of them went in without any effort.

The environment in the community is completely different from where Jenny lives. Even at night, walking on the cobblestone paths inside the community and smelling the faint fragrance of flowers in the air can bring people a little comfort.

Hall led the two of them straight inside. Xia Ren and Qin Yun were surprised to find that in the city center where land is at a premium, this community was so luxurious that they could allocate such a large space to build a two- or three-story building. villa.

Even though it's connected, it's still incredible.

Xia Ren realized that if you want to live here, you definitely need more than just money.

"Who is your boss?"
