Starting from the Dragon Tribe

This characteristic and ability reminded Lu Chen of that anime, which was quite similar.

But in fact, the Death Note here is much scarier than the Death Note of the God of Death in the anime, because it has a certain degree of autonomy, and like the Lord of the Rings in The Lord of the Rings, it confuses everyone who comes into contact with it. To possess it.

Once a person has such an idea, he will become a tool of the Death Note, a killing tool.

It is difficult for the Death Note to actively activate its ability to kill people. Perhaps this is its setting and related to the origin of its birth, so someone needs to write a name on it and set a goal.

Once the target is determined, even high-risk night watchmen may be in danger.

But in fact, it is very easy for high-risk night watchmen to deal with the Death Note, as long as their true names are not revealed.

Due to the setting of Death Note, it needs the name and appearance of the opponent to activate that special strange power. If you don't know the name, half of it will be invalid.

This is the information provided by Hu En Province next door. He cannot believe it completely, but Lu Chen believes that it is at least 70% correct. The only thing he is not sure about is whether a puppet is really needed to kill people in the Death Note.

Yes, the most terrifying aspect of the Death Note is that it controls a puppet, which continuously curses and kills people. If the puppet is willing to cooperate, has an anti-social personality and has unusual ambitions, it will create a far greater threat than Generally, high-risk weird and stronger combinations.

Because they can hide in the shadows and kill without leaving any trace. If the puppets are highly intelligent beings and mingle in human society, their feet will not be exposed at all, and the harm they cause is likely to be greater than those weird things that cause brainless destruction.

You want to ask why?

The scariest thing is always... the human heart.

So why did Klin Messer die directly?

Because Klin is an ordinary, very low-class ordinary person, or in other words, a poor, honest man.

For such a person, after being initially bewitched by the Death Note, as Louise said, the first thing he thinks of is "possession". In his subconscious mind, the Death Note is an extremely valuable thing. .

In this situation, a simple and honest person wants to possess a notebook as his own possession. What is the thing he wants to do most?

Considering what Louise heard, it was an obvious answer.

Write your name.

So the tragedy happened. Colin Messer cursed himself to death with his own hands. From this perspective, it is not wrong to say that he committed suicide.

When he and Eri were watching the anime rerun, there was a comment on it saying that if the first time he picked up the notebook was to write his name on it, it would become a funny anime.

But this is not a funny cartoon, but something that actually happened before their eyes.

In fact, no one can laugh when faced with this kind of thing.

"Thank you for your information. We will track down the notebook and let your brother rest in peace."

Lu Chen thanked him and took out two banknotes from the storage space, totaling two pounds. "You should change into new clothes, eat something nutritious, and have a peaceful sleep."

After that, he motioned for Leng Yue and him to leave. There were no clues here.

Louise stared blankly at the two-pound note in her hand. This was a big sum for the Messer family, but that was not what she wanted.

When Lu Chen and the two walked to the door, Louise bent her fingers into her palms, clasped her hands on her chest, and asked boldly: "What is the real cause of my brother's death? Can you tell me?"

Lu Chen didn't look back, just waved his hand, "He was killed by the evil energy of the notes. As for the detailed process, you don't want to know."

Before closing the door, Leng Yue turned to Louise and said, "Someone will come to you in the afternoon to sign a confidentiality agreement. Don't panic."

The two walked along the river, jumped on the boat moored on the shore, untied the rope, and headed to the next location.

"I didn't expect Mr. Lu to be like this."

Leng Yue rowed her oars and spoke from behind Lu Chen.

"What?"

Lu Chen sat on the bow of the boat, with his legs half bent and stretched forward, looking at the scenery of this water city.

Leng Yue hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether her behavior was transgressive. After thinking about it, she finally said: "You were very gentle to her, and you also left her a consolation money, and... you didn't tell her the truth."

Lu Chen smiled, "Then what kind of person do you think I should be?"

Leng Yue was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

When she first met Lu Chen, she was in awe of his strength and frightened by his evil aura.

On her first impression, she thought he was a cruel, ruthless, and easy-to-kill person who would do anything for the sake of efficiency.

But he didn't expect that Lu Chen would be more patient with Louise than he was. It was obvious that she was just a weak "NPC" in the mission world and would not be of any help to their space missions and interests.

The afternoon sun gradually moved, and the river shimmered, as if the city was dyed with a layer of dense light, a beautiful dream.

Lu Chen breathed naturally, and the water mist he exhaled slowly rose on a cold winter day. He looked at the floating clouds on the horizon, "It's a human."

Leng Yue was a little confused and did not answer.

"I mean, she is a person. She is a girl who lives a difficult life, but still works hard, struggles to live, and longs for a better tomorrow. She is a living person, not a background in the game."

Lu Chen's voice was calm, and Leng Yue couldn't see his expression.

Leng Yue was silent for a moment, "...I understand, this is respect for her, as a complete living being, and as a human being."

Or... pity?

However, Lu Chen shook his head, "No... you don't understand."

Under Leng Yue's confused gaze, Lu Chen was silent for a moment, "I mean... I am a human being."

In the quiet city, the boat slowly made waves, and these waves... might turn into a raging tide.

………………

"It's very troublesome. The Death Note may have found its favorite 'owner'"

As night falls, the lights are reflected in Hanoi, as if there are thousands of eyes looking up at the sky.

Lu Chen and Leng Yue were standing on the west side of Defias City Cathedral, next to the river, looking at the night sky and talking.

"The risk factor of this mission is not high. Of course, there is no danger to us, but it is troublesome to find it."

Lu Chen thought, his spiritual thoughts were enough to cover the entire Defias City, but the Death Note obviously had a way of concealing its mysterious aura. Only when it activated its ability to kill people would there be obvious fluctuations.

Coupled with the repressive power of the world, even if his internal power in the Zhetian World is almost as strong as that of the Saint King, a blanket search is still a laborious task.

Meticulous work and destroying an entire city with one knife are two different concepts.

Regarding how to find the Death Note, Lu Chen consulted Chu Zihang, and Chu Zihang gave two methods.

One is that Lu Chen and Leng Yue can go outside Defia City to do other things, and then come back in a few days to check the death list in Defia City. According to the character relationship diagram of the deceased, as long as the number of deaths exceeds three People can roughly lock in the scope of the "owner" of the Death Note.

This is a traditional criminal investigation technique, but Lu Chen rejected it.

People of his strength have come over. Wouldn't it be very shameful to continue to sit back and watch Death Note kill people?

The second method mentioned by Chu Zihang requires more effort, and that is the stupid method. Lu Chen covered the whole process with his spiritual thoughts, monitoring every corner at all times. As long as there were special fluctuations, he would rush there immediately.

"Perhaps we can wait for new information and deal with this task. It is just a matter of time for us."

Leng Yue suggested that she was not worried about wasting her stay time.

Rather, they can't even return before the main mission starts.

As a judge, she knows that in this kind of wasteland world, space usually allows people like them to stay longer, especially monsters like the one around her.

No, maybe he shouldn’t be called a monster. To be respectful, he should be called a very strong person.

"That's not necessary. Trust me, this mission will end soon. I asked the local night watchman and there are no new Death Note victims yet. This shows that the new 'owner' of the Death Note has not completely eroded his mind. , has a cautious character.”

Lu Chen paused for a moment and continued: "...But I don't think he will be able to endure it for too long. In complex social life, people will always have one or two people who have the urge to kill. When he fully understands Once we understand the role of the Death Note and have a detailed safety plan, we will start killing people. We just need to wait for him to reveal his tricks."

The Death Note is a special mysterious item. It has no weird fluctuations when its special ability is not activated. However, in the dark night, there are always some "little weirdness"

"Mr. Lu seems to be very analytical."

Leng Yue nodded, she didn't expect Lu Chen to be so clever.

"generally."

Lu Chen nodded humbly. This was actually something Chu Zihang had analyzed for him.

"Do we need to do anything now? For example, I saw two explorers of the fairy space in the Defias Holy See."

Leng Yue held the dagger in her hand, looking bored.

"It's only the sixth level. If you're interested, you can go by yourself. Make it clean and don't cause unnecessary complications."

Lu Chen was not very interested. Although in this large open native world, the probability of killing explorers and dropping dead treasure chests would increase a lot, he would probably have no output.

He has no illusions about the Dead Man's Chest now.

He got one in the last battle for the world, and Eriyi helped open it, but only 100,000 origin coins and a "magic wand" came out.

Is this Eri's action? If he did it by himself, he might get toilet paper?

By the way, the "Magic Wand" used the recycling function of space to directly sell it at a low price (commonly known as a store), selling it for 300,000 origin coins. After all, it was an epic item, and I don't know which female explorer was so good at it.

Sure enough, women are always cruel enough to spend money on themselves.

"No, I only have one goal in this world, and they are not worth my while."

Leng Yue shook her head. She had her own judgment task and was a sixth-level violator in the origin space.

In fact, the biggest reason why it was "not worth it" was that she felt that there were only two people who could not deliver goods, regardless of whether they could explode the deceased's treasure chest or not, and the goods they produced were sometimes very ugly.

Both sides were silent for a while, obviously thinking on their own.

Lu Chen noticed the "target" mentioned in Leng Yue's words. It seems that space will never let the arbiter and pioneer idle.

"Excuse me, you two. Is there any new progress in the investigation?"

A clear male voice sounded, and from the west gate outside the church, a man wearing a black suit came over. There was also a faint strange aura lingering on his body, and his temperament was a bit chilly. At first glance, he looked like a man who had experienced many lives and deaths.

This is a white man, who looks to be in his thirties, over 1.8 meters tall, handsome, with long hair tied back in a ponytail. If he hadn't been as serious as a soldier and attended social occasions, he might have been considered a an artist.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Clementine, but I have no idea at the moment."

Lu Chen turned around and responded.

The man in front of him was Clementine Aston, a dangerous night watchman of the Morning Embrace Church in Defias City, who was responsible for receiving the two special commissioners from the provincial capital.

"Is there any new information or information?"

Leng Yue asked. From the church's transfer and dispatch documents, she was Lu Chen's "supervisor". She still had to speak when she should speak, and she could not appear to be following Lu Chen's lead.

Clementine was the original night watchman here who was responsible for investigating the Death Note incident. Although he was somewhat reluctant when he was assigned to investigate, it was difficult to disobey the orders of the church's upper echelons.

The Death Note is a high-risk item. He lives in this city, and some people still know him. If his name is written on it, as a dangerous night watchman, he will most likely die.

But this is what the night watchman does. He usually has nothing to do and receives a high-tech subsidy. If a strange incident occurs in the city, no matter whether he is capable or not, he must first intervene in the investigation, otherwise the church in Defias City will appear to be too incompetent. .

"Two people died in the city yesterday, but one was a homicide and the other was an accidental drowning. I led a team to investigate. It is a normal event that there is no smell of those things."

Clementine sighed and smiled bitterly: "You know, I want to change my name now, but I don't know if it will work."

Lu Chen patted the other party's shoulder, "Don't worry, this city is very big, with a population of 1.2 million. As a night watchman in the church, you are a secretive person. There should not be many people who know your real name."

Clementine shrugged her shoulders, "But I love attending social events, and there are many people who know me in the city."

Lu Chen looked at the other person's pigtails and then at the other person's charm attributes. He didn't expect that there were more than seventy, which made him feel uncomfortable.

He is obviously a person with a weird aura and a chilling temperament, but his charm attribute is actually so high.

"You two have been busy all day, and I have arranged a place for you..."

At this point, Clementine paused, "Do you need to separate?"

Leng Yue glanced at Lu Chen, "Is it difficult for the church in Defias City to arrange two houses?"

Clementine waved her hand quickly, "Miss Leng is joking, I thought you needed to supervise Mr. Lu's promotion task."

Lu Chen glanced at the brightly lit pedestrian street on the other side of the river, "Before we go back, we should do something."

Leng Yue and Clementine were puzzled. Among them, Leng Yue became even more serious, thinking that Lu Chen had discovered something, so she started to enter a fighting state.

However, the next moment, Lu Chen pointed to the opposite side and said, "The direction of the river wind is really bad. It brought some delicious smells and made me a little hungry."

Leng Yue and Clementine were stunned. They didn't expect that the other party was going to the pedestrian street to raid food.

Lu Chen hung up the call with Hui Liyi's team at this time. No, Hui Liyi's description of the royal menu was too appetizing.

Under the two bright moons, the night becomes darker and darker. This water town is like a cradle, gestating something.
