On April 14, Qisi went to Ruidanshen Casino.
He is not there to gamble, but to kill people.
Redanshen Casino has a long history. It has stood in the gray area since the establishment of the Federation. It has forces in both black and white and all over the world. It has maintained a tacit peace with the Federation for a long time. As long as it is not If you play too outrageous, you won't be visited by the Public Security Bureau.
As a neutral force between the federal government and the resistance organizations, it truly treats the "Federal Charter" as a fart. It dares to guarantee bets of life and death, and it also dares to collect such bets. , throwing a body is a normal thing.
After Qisi came out of the game and found that he had lost his rich perception of the world, he wanted to try killing someone again to see if he could inspire his deep-seated emotions like he did ten years ago. endowment.
He has no interest in disposing of corpses or destroying traces for the time being. It would be a good choice to borrow Rui Danshen's venue and blame Rui Danshen for his life.
Zis held the compass that he pulled out from the bottom of the box, put his hands into his pockets, and wandered loosely into the alley behind the casino like an idle vagrant, and settled into a surveillance blind spot.
The streets that were accustomed to the night life became lonely during the day. Qis soon met a gambler who was alone. He lost all his principal and was kicked out.
It was a man in his forties or fifties, with a stooped back and dull eyes, looking like a walking corpse.
Killing such a person is the least likely to cause serious consequences.
On the one hand, it was common for him to stay away from home for ten and a half days at the casino. It would take a while for his family to notice him missing. By then, the best time for investigation would have passed, and the body might have been buried. Ruidanshen handled it smoothly.
On the other hand, he may have betrayed his family a long time ago because he emptied his family's wealth. Even if his family members find out that he is dead, they usually will not find out the real culprit. In most cases, they will relax in order to stop the loss in time. tone.
Of course, it’s not necessarily whether this kind of person has a family, maybe he’s just a lonely widower. Hundreds of thousands of such homeless people disappear from the city every year. The combined investigation cost is too high, so we simply give up.
Even if you are extremely unlucky and someone discovers this murder and investigates it in depth, the probability of finding Qiss is extremely low.
Unmotivated murder is the most difficult to detect. No matter which aspect of the investigation, Qisi does not exist in the social relations of the deceased.
In short, Ziss successfully used a pack of cigarettes to lure the target into the surveillance blind spot, and while he was lighting up the cigarette and recounting his tragic past, he inserted the needle tip of the compass into his carotid artery.
After struggling for a while, the target ended his miserable and failed life. Chiss released his hand covering the target's mouth and found that he did not feel anything special.
The color of the world in front of him was still as thin as a fog, and the touch of his fingertips and the sounds he heard still seemed to be separated from him by a thin film.
It seems that some methods can only be used once, and the negative effects imposed by the strange game are not so easy to remove.
Chiss didn’t feel much sadness or pain about this, but he still felt vaguely disappointed and irritated.
He took off his white shirt that was splattered with blood and used it as a rag to wipe all the blood-stained areas on his body. Then he took out a new set of white shirts from his backpack and put them on. He put the dirty compasses and shirt on Taken in.
He carried his bag and walked out of the alley at the same pace as when he came. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure coming out of the casino.
With his thin body covered in a gray T-shirt and a face that belonged to a drug addict, he looked like the son of the proprietress of a breakfast shop.
Did he see anything? Do you want to kill people and silence them? This is a question worth studying.
Qisi touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
...
On the morning of April 15, the Kyushu Guild issued an initiative on the forum, which roughly called on players to actively participate in the exploration and research of the dungeon, actively join or establish a guild, and work together in unity.
Some theoretical players have interpreted that "Jiuzhou is showing friendly attitude to the newly established unnamed guild"; some players believe that the unnamed guild is a branch established by Jiuzhou. Everyone understands it, but cannot explain it clearly. .
In the afternoon, a high-level account certified as "Vice President of Tingfeng Guild" forwarded Kyushu's initiative.
Players all know that the two guilds Jiuzhou and Tingfeng have an ambiguous relationship, so there is not much discussion about it.
Ziss spent early morning in his studio in the suburbs.
He spent a full six hours, using the "art of splicing frogs and human bodies" as the research topic, and created a specimen that would be terrible for normal people to look at.
Frogs of various colors are densely hanging on the surface of the corpse. From a distance, they look like a bunch of wheat ears full of seeds. They will sway lightly and dexterously at the slightest disturbance, which is enough to drive patients with trypophobia crazy. .
Zis put the new work together with the previous "fish-man" specimen as a commemoration of the replica experience.
He washed the knives and cleaned the tool table again. Suddenly he felt a little bored and wanted to stab himself.
So, he took out the newly purchased paper knife from the game space and stabbed his left arm.
Limited by the sharpness, the puncture was not deep, but a lot of blood flowed out, and a few drops fell on the screen of the mobile phone.
Qisi wiped the phone screen clean, tied his sleeve into a knot at the injured area, and stopped the bleeding in a short while.
It seems that the negative effect of the [Undead] being unable to heal itself will not take effect in reality, which is good news in a sense.
As for further attempts, such as cutting off his own kidneys and roasting them, Qiss has no plans for this yet.
He put the paper knife back into the game space, returned home, and sent Lin Chen a text message:
[Tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon, form a team to match a new copy. Decide on a pseudonym as soon as possible, and preferably change your appearance. Also, don’t broadcast live anymore. 】
……
At two o’clock in the afternoon on April 16, Jiangcheng University.
Lin Chen lay on the narrow bed in the dormitory, closed his eyes and entered the game space.
He saw the discussion about "Si Qi" in the forum before, and after digging deeper into the words of the players, he soon learned that in the copy of "Hopeless Sea", Qisi and Chang Xu met once and reached a cooperation. , and in the end Qisi almost killed Chang Xu under the control of the puppet master.
In the copy of "Red Maple Leaf Boarding School", the two met and cooperated again, and showed a familiarity and tacit understanding.
No one has uploaded the videos of the two dungeons. As for what happened in the dungeon, we can only piece together a rough idea based on the accounts of players who watched the live broadcast.
But Lin Chen still realized that the facts might be different from what he initially thought.
Chang Xu may not be a massacre player, but may even be a good person; in "Rose Manor", he listened to Qisi's words and misunderstood him.
However, Qiss did not deliberately conceal the copy of "Hopeless Sea" in his words. He probably did not intend to deceive him. What exactly is the situation?
Lin Chen couldn't figure it out, so he called Qisi. As a result, he called Qisi six times, but Qisi didn't answer.
He sent a few more text messages after careful consideration, but Qisi also didn’t reply.
Unexpectedly, before he could investigate clearly, Qisi took the initiative to send him a text message and agreed on a time to form a team to match the dungeon.
Well, asking some questions after meeting in person is more direct and clear than talking over the air.
The other requirements in the text message are not difficult to understand. Lin Chen knew that both he and Qisi had been posted on the forum, so they could no longer use their real names and appearances.
He picked around in the mall and finally spent 50,000 points to buy a prop called [Camera Filter].
[Name: Camera Filter]
[Type: Props]
[Effect: Based on the original appearance of the player's face, the appearance is slightly adjusted]
[Remarks: Are you ready to cheat? 】
As the name suggests, this prop can adjust the skin color, eye distance, tooth color and other factors of the face just like the camera that comes with the mobile phone, adding some strangeness and distortion to the player's appearance.
After the adjustment is completed, acquaintances can still recognize the original person, but strangers will definitely be confused when they see it for the first time.
Lin Chen couldn't afford props with better effects, so he had to make do with [camera filters].
He adjusted the factors in each dimension to the maximum extent before jumping into the bottomless rabbit hole in front of him.
Electronic Sound asked coldly: [You performed well in the last copy, and the live broadcast will receive additional streams. Are you willing to start the live broadcast in this copy? 】
Lin Chen shook his head: "No, if I don't turn it on this time, I won't turn it on in the future."
[The default settings have been saved for you]
[Now Randomly generate a copy...】
[The copy is loading...Loading completed]
...
On the other side, Qiss lay down on the bed on time, letting his consciousness sink into darkness.
He opened his eyes on the high-backed chair and turned his head to see his own image in the full-length mirror. The combination of his scarlet eyes and mottled bloody clothes made him look like he had crawled out of a ghost house. The devil came out.
The [Scarlet Priest] card has a greater impact on his appearance than the [Human Form Evil] card. When his face is expressionless, he no longer reveals the evil spirit as before, but instead reveals a deceptive aura. Sacred and compassionate.
The white shirt he was wearing was stained with blood and could no longer be seen.
Qisi spent a thousand points from the mall to buy a red suit and finally looked more pleasing to the eye.
In the temple, all matters are run in an orderly manner under the rules set by the Poseidon Scepter.
The villagers in Qijia Village have not yet entered the game, and they will probably have to wait until the seven-day countdown ends before they reluctantly match the new copy.
The newcomers who were infected with the insomnia germ went through the first dungeon, half of them died, and 78,000 points were provided.
Liu Yuhan was playing the dungeon alone, and she was playing a new dungeon. Her behavior was much more aggressive and rough than before, as if she was venting some emotions.
In reality, Dong Zixi was wrapped in a white robe and sitting in a heavily armed military truck. He was probably participating in an operation as a member of the Tianping Church.
Zhang Yiyu’s picture turned completely black. The soul blade is still there, which means she is still alive, but the signal was cut off somehow.
Well, everyone has a bright future.
Qisi reached out to touch the scarlet leaf that represented Lin Chen.
Lin Chen, dressed in a hospital gown, sat on a high-backed chair in a pure white palace, showing a frozen scene.
This means that the matching copy has started, but has not been officially loaded.
Qisi didn’t wait any longer, gathered up all the props, put on his hiking bag, stood up and stepped into the full-length mirror.
