Chapter 926: Rumors
Wearing a black tuxedo, the 'man' almost blended into the night without stopping, turning his body synchronously, watching Obi pull the car around him, and finally disappeared into the night , just said to myself He said to himself: "What a poor guy, he dare not resist until death."
But no one answered his words, and he didn't care, striding towards the silent road. I walked forward without being affected by the darkness at all.
Obik, who was running in the opposite direction to him, pulled the car and ran at a speed comparable to a car. From time to time, he turned his head and glanced behind him. Only when he found that no one was catching up did he feel relieved and slowed down. , parking the noodle stall on the side of the road that is not messy from running fast.
"What on earth is that guy?" Obik said to himself with confusion. Although they were both dark creatures, he could feel that the guy was filled with anger, hatred, etc. , even though they are so far apart, they feel uncomfortable.
That guy has appeared many times before, and each time he used words to encourage him to launch revenge against humans. He is simply a lunatic. He is afraid that the world will not be chaotic. Obik does not want to meet such an evil guy. He will do it every time. Leave immediately and the guy won't chase him, but he will pop up from time to time.
“You don’t look like a good person,” the shadow in the pot poked its head out and said in a sweet voice: “But I think what he said makes sense. We have always lived here, for many, many years. Why should we be expelled? Why should we make way for them?”
“Shadow,” Obik’s voice suddenly became louder, and he said to the shadow: “We no longer belong to this land. ,only Lai refuses to leave here, it’s time to leave now.”
“But.”
“Okay, don’t say any more,” Obik interrupted the shadow and looked. Looking at the high-rise buildings under construction or completed, he shook his head and said: "Even if these are destroyed, what's the point? The previous village has disappeared, and the people who left will not come back."< br>
Shadow lowered his head and retracted into the pot: "But...but we have always lived here."
"Yes, we have always lived here," Obik squatted on the roadside. He folded his arms, shrank his body, and said in a low voice: "Look Watching the young people leave the village one by one and never come back; watching the thatched houses being demolished and replaced by brick and stone buildings; watching the lotus root pond being filled in and turned into a spacious road; watching the low The watchtower was demolished and replaced with a tall iron tower
We can only watch like this, and there is nothing we can do to stop it, but what can we do now to let everyone know about us, at least before we leave, someone will remember us."
"Then we will. Let’s make a scene.”
"Okay, it's time to make a big fuss." Obik said, his eyes became firm, and a wisp of dark red flashed across his black pupils, then he pulled up the noodle stall and ran on the road, Go find the next late night wanderer and let them know: Obik is back.
The next day, when the sun had just risen and people had just woken up, Hikono had already exploded. Many people's mobile phones were bombarded with messages, all kinds of strange little compositions accompanied by pictures that they didn't know where to find, but they were all... They're saying the same thing: Obik eats people. Hitting people and biting dogs are not uncommon these days, but cannibalism makes headlines. I don’t know how many people who have just woken up have opened the short essays circulated in social circles with a curious mentality. After reading a sentence, it is better than reading a sentence. When I found out what the real content was, I just knew that Obik was eating people, and immediately forwarded it to the next person, then got up, yawned and went to work.
But on the way to work, I heard more news about Obik’s cannibalism:
It is said that the police station found Obik’s lair. Countless skeletons were found; some say surveillance video captured Obik’s cannibalism. , extremely bloody; they even swore that all the people who had disappeared over the years were actually dragged away and eaten by Obik
Many people said that they did not know where they heard the news. But every one of them swears by it, as if they have seen it with their own eyes.
True and false news were flying all over the place, so Hikono's official department had no choice but to refute the rumors and inform the public that there was no discovery of Obi's lair, and there was no video of Obi's eating people. Only a few people claimed to have met Obi at night. Grams, please don't panic, let alone believe the rumors. Everything will be based on actual investigation, and we will do our best to ensure everyone's safety.
Just such a statement with a strong official meaning did not alleviate the panic of the people. They were still paying attention to the news about Obik. When meeting and chatting with acquaintances, they would always say a few words, "Have you heard about Obik?" , many people in Yanye received calls from relatives and friends, asking them with concern about the situation there and giving advice on whether to leave.
Media reporters rushed over like sharks smelling blood, conducting interviews everywhere. The interview transcript and their own wild imagination turned into a brand new press release, which was sent out immediately. It is not true. Regardless, seizing the traffic brought by hot spots is the most important. If you make a mistake, just bow and apologize.
Those rural policemen patrolling at night suddenly became popular. Countless media repeatedly asked them about the whole process of discovering people in the wild. Where were the people who claimed to have met Obik? The hospital also became very lively. A large number of reporters came in and out with guns and cannons, interviewing doctors and nurses, eager to put a microphone into the mouth of everyone they met.
Looking at his "comrades" jumping up and down, Chiba Makoto felt that this farce was ridiculous and a little sad. No one cared about the lives of the people who were rumored to be eaten, only their lives. Experience, no one pays attention to Obik, they just want to know why he 'eats people'.
Obik's original intention was to attract attention so that everyone would remember him, but as he was already behind the times, he probably didn't know that people nowadays don't care about the truth of the matter and the secrets behind it. They just want to eat melons and quickly forget about them. .
While sighing, a familiar voice came from behind: "Chiba!"
Chiba Cheng looked back and saw that his hair was neatly combed and his clothes were clean. Takehiko Onoda was striding over and said as he walked : "You have also heard of 'Obik'. I didn't expect that there is a monster hiding in this place."
"Monster? How did you know it was a monster?" Chiba Cheng was surprised. Uncle Onoda has also seen or heard the legend of Obik.
"What is a man-eating monster if it's not a monster?" Onoda asked back, then pulled Chiba Makoto aside and whispered: "Although the news is good, safety is more important. Don't go out at night, otherwise you will There’s a problem, no matter how beautiful your girlfriend is, she’s not yours.”
