Chapter 185 The Birth of a Strange Demon (Part 2) The first update asks for a monthly pass

Under the gloomy sky, even though the warm yellow sun like a boiled egg that just rose in the morning has just revealed half of its face from the distant eastern sky, it seems that there is no vitality at all, and the listless light is even more so. It makes people feel no warmth at all.

   Higashinohara turned up the collar of his windbreaker, trying to keep himself warm.

   But in the end it's just futile.

  Thinking about it carefully, it’s no wonder that the people in the Judgment Department call the world behind the [Boundary] gate “hell”.

   I don’t know if I read some depressing records in that diary. At this time, even Higashinohara, who had lived in this world for more than 20 years in his previous life, felt that everything around him was very "underworld".

   Can't feel the slightest breath of the world.

  At this time, a gust of morning wind came out with a chill from the gaps between the leaning tall buildings not far away, blowing back and forth on the empty street, and the sobbing sound like a devil's cry came in through the gaps in everyone's necklines.

  For a while, many people in the investigation team who were superhumans of the non-meat system couldn't help shivering, and a fine layer of goosebumps arose on the surface of the skin.

  At this moment, most of the investigation team members in the temporary station on the street have all woken up, and their gaze drifts from time to time to Gray Mane, who is sitting not far away and is sleeping with his eyes closed.

   Now there are two roads before them,

   Or there is only one way!

  Because they want to go back alive, they have to gamble their luck and go back to the residential building in the community where they were frightened at midnight last night to get back the supplies that they didn't have time to pack when they retreated in a hurry.

   You know, if there are no such supplies in seven days, then even if they didn't die in the hands of those weird and unpredictable strange monsters, I'm afraid they will starve to death by themselves.

   So that's their only option.

  But at this moment, everyone was still silent, and no one took the initiative to raise this issue.

  Such a terrifying thing happened in that residential building last night, especially thinking that there might be more than one terrifying strange monster in the building, everyone's eyes couldn't help drifting to the wounded numbers that were hit by the strange monster in the dark last night.

  At that time, except for Ji Yuanwen, the fifth-order flesh system superpower, who protected himself with his fists in time, the others had almost a dozen broken ribs, and some bone spurs had penetrated into their lung lobes. They have been coughing up blood since midnight last night.

   For a moment, everyone couldn't bear a chill in their hearts.

  The investigation team is divided into two factions, one is the black-robed executive team of the Judgment Department, and the other is hired people like Higashinohara and Hela.

   Obviously, the two parties do not enjoy any equal treatment.

  Although the conscious people cared about the supplies left in that building to keep them alive, they also didn’t want to be the ones who came out to find the way for others, lest they die when they didn’t know how to die.

  For a while, everyone raised their heads to look at me and I looked at you from time to time, and their eyes drifted to the group of people in the Judgment Department twice, and the atmosphere in the morning suddenly became a little subtle.

   Higashinohara also seemed to have noticed something.

   But he is different from others.

   On the one hand, no one knows where this so-called "hell" is better than him, and on the other hand, it is the diary he just read in the morning light this morning.

  Although the diary is only half, after the woman named Ma Baoli found out that her husband was having an affair with the butcher's wife upstairs, she tied her hands and gagged her and smashed her face on the floor crazily.

  According to Higashinohara's analysis, he probably guessed that Ma Baoli should not have committed suicide and died on the bed, otherwise there would be no diary on May 22.

  The possibility of others writing for you is too low, and it is difficult to write the content and mental activities of this day in such detail.

In connection with the strange situation that Ma Baoli showed last night, Higashinohara speculated that the poor woman named Ma Baoli might have suddenly become alienated into that appearance under the influence of an unknown "tide". It seemed that she should belong to The "unconscious" strange demon that Gray Mane said last night.

   As for hitting the floor in the middle of the night and repeating words like "liars, all men are liars", these two are more like the performance of "unconscious" approaching instinct.

  At this time, the only doubtful point in Higashinohara's mind is to sort out according to the timeline.

   What if Ma Baoli was knocked unconscious by her scumbag husband who had been married for more than half a year and stuffed under the bed and tried to commit suicide after waking up, but it coincided with the "tide" coming, and finally became an unconscious strange monster.

  Then who recorded the diary for that day?

   Can keep a diary without being conscious?

  In other words, she may not have lost consciousness immediately at that time, but her consciousness may have been gradually lost in the process of continuous "alienation", so she was able to record those contents in the diary.

   This seems to be a reasonable explanation.

  Then the question now is, since Ma Baoli alienated and became a strange demon when the unknown "tide" came, what about her husband and the woman who had an affair?

   Was the alienated Ma Baoli killed in revenge?

   Are they also alienated by the tides?

   Or in other words, the tide is just the alienation of the people at that time, a necessary and insufficient condition for becoming a strange monster, just like the relationship between "wet ground" and "rain".

  The wetness of the ground is not necessarily caused by rain, but the rain will definitely make the ground wet.

Similarly, the world that Higashinohara was familiar with in his previous life has become the "hell" in the eyes of people in the world he lives in now. The alienation of human beings into "strange demons" must be related to the tide, but the tide may not necessarily make everyone become "hell". Strange Demon".

   So what are the "necessary conditions" for alienation to occur?

  Thinking of this, Higashinohara couldn't help but fell into deep thought, as if he had grasped something vaguely in his mind.

   It's a pity that half of the diary was torn off by someone, otherwise Higashinohara might be able to analyze and restore the so-called "tide" from the content behind it. What kind of impact did it have on human beings? What is the essence of the several different levels of different demons that Gray Mane said?

   These are all a fog.

  However, if he wants to go back to the residential building in that community to investigate again, Higashinohara has an advantage that no one else has, and that is the diary in his hand.

From the perspective of a newly-married woman who just moved to this community, they are connected day by day to record the general situation of each household in that residential building. Now, I don’t know how many years later, when the world has fallen into silence and strange monsters are rampant. , to some extent, this diary can almost be regarded as the "Explanatory Guide to the Illustrated Book of Strange Demons" for this community.

If Higashinohara returns to the residential building in the community again, walk into a random family, and combine the records in Ma Baoli's diary, Higashinohara can roughly recall what kind of people lived in that family who did not know how many years ago .

   It’s not like knowing yourself and your enemy.

   But at least it can prevent him from being so passive when encountering everything.

  In the temporary camp on the street, Gray Mane, who had been resting with his eyes closed all this time, finally opened his closed eyes and meditated. His eyes swept across the crowd gathered around him, and he said in a calm voice:

"Presumably you all know that we must retrieve the supplies left in that building. I don't need to say more about this. What I want to say is another point. We must investigate the movements of those strange demons. We have clearly checked the community, but at night the strange demons reappeared without warning, where are they hiding? Do they have a fixed activity pattern?"

  Hearing Gray Mane's words, everyone's faces showed thoughtful expressions.

  That’s right, if the residential buildings in that neighborhood are really full of strange demons, why is there no movement during the day or even in the evening, and the demons immediately dance around in the middle of the night.

   Does this mean that strange demons only act at night?

   Is the day in **** limiting them?

   It's just that strange demons prefer to act at night.

   It is very important for the group of them to understand this point, and it is related to how they can safely spend the next six days.

Having said that, Gray Mane paused, and continued, "Until these things are clarified, it is impossible for all the people behind us to approach rashly, so I will name the people next, your task is very important, Responsible for sneaking into the community to re-investigate, and the rest of us will all support outside at any time."

  Hearing Gray Mane's words, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

  Some of the hired people even feel bitter in their hearts. Gray Mane will definitely select them from the hired people when he rolls the name next. Is this the purpose of the Judiciary for hiring us?

   Support?

Do not make jokes.

   If something really happened, I would run faster than anyone else.

   Sure enough, all the gifts of fate have already been secretly priced.

If he had known earlier that he was going to come to such a spooky place this time, he would not be able to go back until he had to wait for seven days like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, then no matter how generous the conditions offered by the adjudication department, they would not sign up for this social recruitment if they were killed. Taking dead flowers is simply the greatest tragedy.

   "Seven seas built."

   Just when everyone was so tense that the air froze a little, Gray Mane spoke, and in his voice, he mentioned Nanami Kenjiro's pseudonym.

  At this moment, Nanami Kenjiro once again erected the common pair of sunglasses on the bridge of his nose to block his pair of silent dead fish eyes, and also blocked the expression in his eyes at this time.

   It’s just the other people around who didn’t name them. While they breathed a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced, they looked at Nanami Kenjiro in the crowd who was fluttering in the wind with his empty right arm, and his eyes couldn’t help being filled with sympathy.

   Sure enough, no one can hate the superior, otherwise sooner or later I will give you little shoes to wear.

Last night, when Manchu evacuated that kind of residential building, everyone guessed that the adjudication department must have concealed information from them in this operation. They all swallowed their anger and dared not speak out, but only this man stood up. This time Was sent to such a dangerous place to scout the way?

  Not to mention the third-level strange monsters with blue high-risk, even the strange monsters with strange abilities last night who used their heads as big hammers to smash people, I am afraid it is not so easy to deal with.

   Alas. I can only wish him good luck in my heart.

  Everyone was thinking like this with lingering fear.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Gray Mane stroked his chin, and his eyes swept over the people around him again, "But one person may not be enough, I think one more person should follow, in case something happens after entering There can also be a follow-up."

   Still want to send someone there?

You must know that among the seven people hired by the investigation team, two were injured in the battle with the alienated Ma Baoli, and they are still lying on the ground miserable, with a look of exhaling too much gas and not breathing in, and they may let go at any time In this hell.

  Therefore, if Gray Mane wanted to send additional investigators, he could only choose from the remaining four people, and the members of the Judgment Division in the investigation team were automatically ignored in this task.

  No one dared to refute anything.

   They could only unconsciously lower their gazes when Gray Mane glanced over.

  Grey Mane couldn't help but laugh in his heart when he saw this.

  In fact, he already has a candidate in his heart, but he enjoys this kind of control and **** of other people's lives, and gets all kinds of awe-inspiring pleasure from it.

   What a group of cowardly and weak humans.

   A moment later, Gray Mane gave a dry cough and was about to announce the second candidate.

   Unexpectedly, at this moment, two voices suddenly came from in front of him and behind him.

"I go."

   "Let me go!"

  The voice fell, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

  I have seen PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.

  But no one has ever seen someone who actively "asked for death".

  The lurking investigation is said to be a wayfinding, but if you walk into the eerie residential building, one mistake may really kill you.

   Among the two people who took the initiative to "not be afraid of death", one was naturally Higashi Nohara.

   Higashinohara looked past Gray Mane, but was surprised to land on Hela who applied at the same time as him.

  Hela, with light blue shoulder-length hair, glanced at Higashinohara with light in her eyes, with a look of surprise on her face.

   Higashinohara smiled wryly and shook his head in his heart. He had some things to investigate and verify. But why is this guy here to join in the fun?

However, for Gray Mane, who enjoys the sense of superiority in controlling the fate of others in his heart, he said that although the second person he wants to send out is Higashi Nohara, the boy who also contradicted him last night, using a trick to "kill chickens to make an example to monkeys" To warn those hired humans.

  The result seems to be somewhat counterproductive.

   Taking a deep breath, Gray Mane's face suddenly turned cold, and he said, "Since you want to go, then go, but Hela stays and replaces Camilla. The three of you set off to investigate together."

   There will be a second update later~

   Ask for a ticket, huh, huh, it’s almost 100 months away and the 600 plus change line is over~
