Just a few steps away, the Eight-Headed Druid slowly pulled the chair over and climbed onto it. In his eyes, he was the only one in the empty city, and he could only hear his own breathing. He looked around and finally, his eyes fell on the ground in front of the chair.
What he did not know was that in the alternate dimension, Lin Sanjiu, Dreadlocks, and the bearded man were all looking at the same spot.
"I told him that even though I know where the item is, I can't help him mark it since I'm trapped here. So, when he sees the chair, he can't take another step forward. If he takes another step forward, he might also step into this dimension. "
Lin Sanjiu spoke as if she was talking to a friend. If one were to close their eyes and listen, they would think that she was holding a cup of tea in her hand.
"When I shot the flashlight, I realized that this dimension intercepted our sound but not our light," Lin Sanjiu said with a chuckle. She smiled softly and said, "This is also inevitable. If the light and shadow are blocked, isolated, or altered, it will inevitably cause the scene to change … If it doesn't look right, who would still walk forward? So, I used a Special Item to distort the light from the outside and make you deliver the item to me. "
It was easy to say, but when Lin Sanjiu used [How to]
While she was adjusting the light and shadow, she could not help but sweat. She knew that she did not have much time. She had to distort and refract the light and shadow of the Eight-Headed Druid a few steps away within a few seconds. It was not an easy task. If not for the dim light in the city, the bearded man would not have been fooled so easily.
The bearded man's lips moved slightly before he pursed them tightly again.
Ever since he stepped into this dimension and was caught by Lin Sanjiu, all he could say was, "What Zong Qing? I have nothing to do with him, "he had been holding back his words. He didn't even make a nasal sound to signal Lin Sanjiu.
Lin Sanjiu looked at his expression and said, "So, you see, it doesn't matter whether you deny it or not. Just like how I use this dimensional item, I can only proceed to the next step when I have confidence in my conjecture."
She pinched the back of Beardy's neck with one hand and pressed both his arteries under her fingers. Beardy's face was red and swollen in pain, but he did not struggle much. His feet only kicked the ground a few times. Bohemia was the one who told Lin Sanjiu about this trick after Puppeteer used it on her. Lin Sanjiu had no intention of torturing Beardy with it. She just wanted to cut off his mobility.
Lin Sanjiu didn't know what method he used, but even at this point in time, she still felt like she was strangling an ordinary person.
'Dreadlocks, 'she said, without looking round,' you search him. '
A body search carried a hint of ownership, and Dirty Dreadlocks had probably never had such an opportunity. He hesitated for a few seconds. He was afraid and excited at the same time. Then, he carefully lifted the bearded man's coat.
"Why didn't you use your ability?" While Filthy Dreadlock was busy, Lin Sanjiu asked, "Does the effect that makes people believe what you say is the truth come from your ability or your item? No matter which one it is, since the effect is so powerful, it must have a lot of limitations. "
Beardy's eyes suddenly turned to Filthy Dreadlock. Apparently, he had figured out where he had given himself away.
"However, even if you have the item to disguise yourself as an ordinary person and the effect of telling the truth, it is still too difficult to disguise yourself as an innocent person."
Lin Sanjiu watched as Filthy Dreadlock touched and patted Beardy's body. She wasn't in a hurry to wait for Beardy to speak, so she continued, "As one of the initiators, you should know very well what kind of effect a person who is about to mutate will have, right? So, when the middle-aged woman patted her arm to show that she wasn't a mutated person, I really can't imagine what you were thinking at that time. It was too coincidental and ironic, right? "
She paused for a moment, and the smile on the middle-aged woman's face surfaced in her mind. At that time, the middle-aged woman probably didn't know that she was about to mutate. After all, who would willingly become a splattering of limbs?
"You couldn't help but look at her arm a few times, and I noticed it. At that time, I found it strange. Her arm looked normal, so why were you looking at it? It wasn't until later that I remembered that her arm started to mutate … You already knew that. " Lin Sanjiu sighed softly, "But, it's human nature. If I were in your shoes, I would also look at her arm."
Even though Beardy gritted his teeth and refused to say anything, he couldn't suppress the expression on his face. When Lin Sanjiu saw the skin under his eyes quivering slightly, she continued, "Also, even though you used some kind of item to create the illusion that you haven't mutated, your combat ability and skills are still there. No matter how hard you try to disguise yourself, or how you purposely walk with heavy footsteps, you will still behave like a normal person when you're not paying attention."
Filthy Dreadlock had already pulled out his belt, and he was swinging it on the ground. When he heard Lin Sanjiu's words, he turned around and asked in a daze, "Huh? Did I? "
"When we jumped off the suspension bridge and walked down the slope," Lin Sanjiu replied, "You and Ba Toude didn't notice any movement in front of us. The only one who noticed it was me, right? If he was really a normal person, why didn't you two posthumans notice him? "
Filthy Dreadlock thought for a moment and suddenly understood. "You're right … If he was a normal person, you wouldn't have to do anything to notice him."
Lin Sanjiu waved Beardy in her hand. "Why? I've already said so much. Are you still not going to admit it? Are you going to call Zhong Qing for help?"
"I … I did … cause a normal person to mutate," Beardy finally said in a hoarse voice, "You're right … But Zhong Qing and I have nothing to do with each other …"
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help being shocked. It wasn't that surprising that Beardy had admitted to it. What was surprising was that he actually took all the blame. It seemed like he was trying to throw Zhong Qing out of the picture.
Zhong Qing was the only one who knew that she was looking for Dreadlocks tonight and had the opportunity to set up a trap ahead of time. He was the only one who knew that she was looking for Dreadlocks. He had followed Eight-Headed Druid closely for a small reward, which was very suspicious. However, in this apocalyptic world, it was hard for Lin Sanjiu to imagine that a posthuman would be willing to sacrifice himself for someone else. Could it be that she had guessed wrongly?
"How's the search going?" she asked as she looked at Filthy Dreadlock.
Around the Eight Headed Deity, no ordinary communication device could guarantee his privacy. If the bearded man and Zhong Qing were really related, they must have used some kind of special communication device to communicate with each other. If they could find such a device, they might be able to follow the clues to verify whether the person on the other end was Zhong Qing.
Dreadlocks did not move quickly, but he made a lot of progress. In his eyes, Beardy had probably turned from a human into a Christmas tree. Every piece of clothing hanging on his body that looked like it might hide something had been taken off and rummaged through. At this moment, there was a small flannelette bag on the ground, a few boxes of food and medicine, and a bundle of long, thin metal pieces that seemed to be some kind of weapon.
"This bag should be his storage device," Filthy Dreadlock showed Lin Sanjiu the bag and said, "But I can't open it … I think he added a lock to the device."
Lin Sanjiu raised her head. Just when she was about to ask Beardy again, she suddenly froze.
The alternate dimension isolated the sound, the airflow, the noise, and the tremors that came from the real world. If she had not turned her head to look, she would not have realized that a person had appeared in the shadows of the city road. He was standing next to the unconscious Ba Tou De and seemed to be looking down at the latter's injury.
The man took a few steps forward and crouched down. He reached his hand into the gap between the tiles and picked up a small, blue object. Lin Sanjiu didn't expect that the man would remove the dimension space without even looking at it.
Wasn't he afraid that she would kill him on the spot?
"Lin Sanjiu," Zhong Qing's head was still lowered. Half of his neck was exposed through his collar. His tone changed as if he wanted to laugh and sigh at the same time. He muttered, "I don't understand you. Don't you hate people who kill indiscriminately? Why are you still unwilling to leave Octopus even after I told you everything about him? In the end, you ruined my plan again. "
Lin Sanjiu's body froze. She was a hundred percent sure that she didn't know Zhong Qing before this. In other words …
"It's been so many years, and I'm wearing a mask. You still can't recognize me, right?"
