Chapter 0072 Appearance!
The bustling streets gradually became deserted.
The boy walked silently down the road, heading in the direction of leaving the town.
Liu Bai and Chen Keke followed closely behind.
The situation is now quite clear.
It was at this moment that Fan Zhi went out and met Fan Datong, who had returned.
After learning of Fan Zhi's plight, Fan Datong launched a massacre in the town.
This explains why Fan Datong made the deal and took over the town.
Da da da.
Liu Bai kept a distance of more than ten meters from the boy as he weaved through the crowd.
soon.
The boy came alone to a large rock near the town's exit.
He skillfully climbed up, then looked at the dark road in the distance, his lips moving as if he were talking to himself.
Liu Bai stopped in front of a shop about ten meters behind the boy, looked at Chen Keke and whispered:
Give me the mini gun.
"Give."
Chen Keke deftly handed over the small white gun, and then pulled out an X-shaped short knife from her pocket.
Liu Bai gripped his pistol tightly, his gaze sharply fixed on the boy's direction.
Next, we'll see if Fan Datong comes!
Huff... huff huff...
Xiao Chen caught up, panting, but when he saw the two men with serious expressions, he paused for a moment.
"Boss, what... what's going on here?"
"Our target, Fan Datong, might appear. You just need to watch from the sidelines."
Liu Bai gave a brief reply, his gaze still fixed on the boy.
Xiao Chen nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he went to Liu Bai's side and looked at the boy.
Time passed slowly.
While waiting, Liu Bai would occasionally glance at the time on his phone.
【23:45】
"Fifteen minutes left..."
Liu Bai squinted at the boy.
The boy remained seated on the stone, staring blankly at the dark road.
"He's waiting for someone. Does he know Fan Datong will be back early?"
Chen Keke was puzzled when she saw this.
"no."
Xiao Chen then shook his head and said:
"This child is waiting for his parents."
"But didn't his parents come back?" Chen Keke frowned.
"He's waiting for his imaginary parents."
Xiao Chen gave a wry smile and explained:
"You don't know this, but this child's only hope was to wait here for his parents to come home, but as you can see, his parents have just returned..."
Chen Keke understood instantly.
They said they came back, but it's as if they never came back.
Liu Bai ignored their conversation, his gaze remaining fixed on the boy.
Time passed once more.
【23:55】
Liu Bai had stopped checking the time.
Fan Datong has not yet appeared.
The boy continued to stare at the road in the distance, making no move.
Fan Datong is a second-generation spirit. If he is not dealt with in advance, he will most likely escape once the Security Bureau enters the scene!
Just as Liu Bai was pondering, five minutes slowly passed.
【12:00】
The boy remained seated on the large rock.
However, the main street where they were located was deserted as night deepened.
"Liu Bai, we've lost internet here too," Chen Keke suddenly said.
"Let's go to the park first!"
Liu Bai turned around decisively.
But just then, he caught a glimpse of the boy sitting on the rock moving out of the corner of his eye!
The boy suddenly stood up! His walking posture was extremely strange, swaying as if his limbs were uncoordinated!
The next second, a white, transparent figure emerged from behind the boy and, like a puppeteer, guided him toward them.
Liu Bai paused for a moment, then quickly aimed the mini gun at the boy.
Fan Datong may not have come back at all!
He left pictures or audio recordings on the boy, so he can come back anytime he wants!
The boy was sitting there muttering to himself; he was probably chatting with Fan Datong!
and so……
"What should we do now?"
If he had shot the boy before the spirit appeared, the spirit would most likely have been destroyed.
But now it has left the human body...
"Ah!!! There's a monster!"
"Quick! Protect the children first!"
"Run!"
Suddenly, a series of piercing screams and shouts rang out in the street.
As soon as Liu Bai and his two companions turned their heads, they saw tall figures appearing on the street at some unknown time.
Its body has extremely long limbs and moves at an incredible speed.
They are constantly grabbing passersby and peeling off their skin, bit by bit.
Blood mist filled the streets.
Chen Keke and Xiao Chen both stood there stunned.
Neither of them had ever experienced anything like this before.
Liu Bai immediately pulled out a signal gun.
But just then, a kind and honest voice resounded in his heart:
"Human, if you call for help, I'll kill you and leave this place immediately!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Bai looked at the transparent creature on the boy's body.
The transparent creature controlled the boy as he walked down the street, its gaze fixed on him.
The honest voice continued:
"I know you are the seventh savior, and the town is already surrounded."
"However, you pose no threat to me right now. You can't even touch me, but I can directly influence you. So your life is in my hands right now!"
"so……"
Liu Bai narrowed his eyes and slowly lowered the signal gun:
"You want to make a deal with me?"
"Forehead?"
The transparent creature paused noticeably for a moment, then said:
"You're so smart, you knew before I even told you..."
After speaking, the transparent creature slowly guided Fan Zhi toward Liu Bai.
Upon seeing this, Chen Keke instinctively wanted to grab the X-knife and slash, but Liu Bai grabbed her and held her down.
Xiao Chen remained where he was, glancing at the composed Liu Bai and then at the approaching monster.
He had realized that this leader was no ordinary person; he was very likely from the Federation's secret department that dealt with monsters...
The transparent creature stopped in front of Liu Bai and then explained the terms of the transaction.
The transaction details are exactly the same as last week's.
After saying that, he said in a simple and honest voice:
"How about this deal? I just need to give my benefactor a perfect town, and after I reproduce and replace everyone else tomorrow, the town will be back to normal."
"Okay, I agree!"
Liu Bai immediately nodded in agreement.
In this situation, it would be pointless for him to call in the security agency, since he would be killed as soon as he fired the signal flare.
It would be better to escape safely now, and then time it perfectly in the next playthrough to shoot Fan Zhi dead.
Fan Datong was taken aback when he heard Liu Bai agree so readily.
He never expected that this person would agree without even discussing conditions...
Could it be that this person is trying to scam him?
Thinking of this, Fan Datong looked at Liu Bai again and said:
"The deal is done, but you can only leave after I've dealt with everyone in this town!"
"no problem."
Liu Bai readily agreed.
He is now in a relaxed state of mind.
In this playthrough, all you need to do is leave the town safely.
Fan Datong was satisfied to see that Liu Bai was still so decisive:
"Then you can stay with me for now. I'll let you go once I get busy with important business. As for now... let's just forget about it."
Let's just forget about it.
This time it was Liu Bai's turn to be stunned.
What does this sentence mean?
Liu Bai's brain was working frantically.
Just then, a 'snap' sound came from behind him.
Chen Keke suddenly dropped the X-shaped dagger in her hand, her clear eyes dimmed, and she slowly lowered her head, sighing softly:
"The world is about to end, and I'm just an ordinary person, useless in any way, how could I possibly save the world..."
A self-deprecating smile appeared on her delicate face:
"Let's forget about it..."
Behind them, Xiao Chen's eyes dimmed, and he slowly lowered his head, muttering to himself:
"I'm already twenty-eight and still just a clerk... I have no skills whatsoever, all I can do is report people and write reports, I'm so useless! I even thought about reporting that old bastard mayor and taking his place..."
"Sigh... I'm so useless, how could I possibly be fit for the job of mayor... I guess I'll just give up..."
The two were dejected and kept doubting themselves.
"?"
Liu Bai immediately narrowed his eyes.
Is this cognitive distortion?
So, that last sentence was the medium?
After glancing at the two of them, Liu Bai immediately pointed his mini-gun at Fan Datong and questioned him:
"What do you mean by that?"
"Um...why are you alright?"
A hint of surprise appeared on Fan Datong's blurred face.
