"Stop the car. What are you doing here?"
"Police officer, we are reinforcements from other places. We heard that there was a disaster here, so we came to provide support …"
Qin Ya was talking to someone. At that moment, Lin Yao understood why Qin Ya had only bought the supplies for the first half of the night. Obviously, this was not a place she was familiar with. Without someone to inform her, it would be very difficult to work outside after one o'clock in the morning.
Qin Ya was in charge of the conversation, and Lin Yao looked in the direction where the group of policemen was gathered. He watched in boredom as they interrogated a resident and wondered what he should do when he went back tonight.
'Should I meditate or study? '
'Forget it. I'll just rest. It's too slow to meditate on my own. I'll meditate after I find a cheat. '
Ordinary people would not think of using a cheat to take shortcuts, but Lin Yao was not ordinary.
There were angels on the Celestial Tree, but there were no spirit essences living on the Tree of Heaven Punishment yet. Lin Yao had been searching for clues about the Leize Dragon God or other thunder beasts in his spare time these days on the arcanist forum and the merit forum.
'If I can't find it, I can use other methods. Anyway, I've just started learning the Leize Dragon God Meditation Technique. It won't take much effort to change meditation techniques. '
Lin Yao was unwilling to waste time on ordinary meditation because of this shortcut, as it was not very efficient.
He did not need to meditate, and the physics teacher that Qin Ya had found for him had not arrived yet. Lin Yao decided to wait. He wanted to have a good rest tonight and prepare for the opening battle of the top 32 tomorrow.
By the time Lin Yao had thought about what he was going to do tonight, Qin Ya had already finished talking to him. After receiving some instructions from the interception police, Qin Ya was ready to drive away. Lin Yao also turned in the direction of the door surrounded by the police. The interrogation had also ended, and the homeowner had closed the door and gone home.
However, just three seconds after closing the door, Lin Yao trembled all over. He looked in the direction of the door as if he had been frightened and suddenly yelled, "Stop the car!"
The sudden roar startled Qin Ya, who was massaging her temples, and the police officers in the distance froze.
"Why are you yelling … What's wrong?"
Qin Ya, who had been complaining, soon saw Lin Yao break out in a cold sweat and stare at the door where he had been interrogated.
More than one person noticed Lin Yao's state. The officials who had not gone far also noticed that something was wrong with Lin Yao. A few of them immediately walked toward Lin Yao with their hands on their waists.
"Sir, what did you find?"
"Freak, there's a freak in the room."
Upon hearing the name of the freaks, the officials took a closer look at Lin Yao but didn\'t say anything. Although the freaks were kept secret from the public, they appeared too frequently and many people knew about them. However, they had been warned by the officials and had signed a contract, so they couldn\'t speak out loud.
Upon hearing Lin Yao's words, someone instinctively retorted, "We have already searched that room. We didn't ask …"
"Ask again."
Before the soldier could finish his words, the leader of the squad stepped forward and made a decision. He took the lead and went to the door. After the others were ready, he knocked on the door carefully.
Ten seconds later, there was the sound of the door opening. Seeing that it was still the police standing outside, the old man looked a little impatient. "Why is it still you guys? Didn't we just ask?"
"I'm sorry, sir. We have to check again. It's safer for you, don't you think?"
"If that's what you want, then let's do it …"
"Don't go in."
By then, Lin Yao had already gotten out of the car. Of course, he was separated by a group of police officers and Qin Ya. This was a form of protection. At the same time, the police officers were still guarding against Lin Yao.
He didn\'t care about this. He just looked ahead with a bitter expression on his face.
"Uncle, you were disturbed by the knocking on the door, right?"
"How did you know?"
Lin Yao\'s expression became even more bitter upon hearing this response.
"Do you remember what happened after the knocking on the door?"
"Of course I remember. I called the police and was protected for a few days. After that, there was no problem, and the police left."
"How did you spend the first day after you were protected?"
"Of course, I spent the day as usual. Who are you?"
"Think carefully about how you spent the day."
"There's no need to think about anything. I'm fine. Who are you? I don\'t want to answer your questions. You are not a police officer."
The old man in front of him looked a little annoyed when Lin Yao kept asking him about the details of that night.
Lin Yao wasn\'t angry. He just continued to ask.
"Think again."
"Don\'t make me think. I said I'm fine."
As if he was infuriated, the man\'s voice became more and more agitated, and he dug his face with his hands in frustration.
However, the irascible old man soon realized that something was wrong. The officials around him were moving away from him and reaching for the weapons at their waists.
"What are you doing? What are you afraid of? I said I\'m fine. The knocking on the door has stopped … Knock on the door, knock on the door … No, let me go. Don\'t come over, don\'t come over … "
The old man held his head and roared in panic. While he was afraid and terrified, a rancid smell emanated from his body. At the same time, his intact body began to rot, as if he had been dead for a week.
It was the rotting body and the stench that made the officials stay away. They had already sensed that something was wrong.
"Uncle Han, are you okay?"
"Don\'t be impulsive. Calm down, calm down."
"Calm down. How can I calm down? I\'ve already told you and called the police. Why didn\'t you save me? Why?
"You are the ones who harmed me. Die … Roar … You all deserve to die!"
Upon seeing the rotting, crazy, and irrational Uncle Han, the officials subdued the rotting monster as quickly as possible without needing Lin Yao to remind them.
In the end, the old man turned into smoke and dust and dissipated. Most of the officials were disappointed. It did not feel good to see an ordinary person turn into a monster in front of their eyes, especially when they discovered that the monster had been living in a human form for several days. Many junior police officers who had just joined the police felt immense pressure.
However, there were also those who were mentally weak and tough. The leader of the team immediately turned to look at Lin Yao with a solemn look in his eyes.
"Sir, please follow us to the police station to make a record."
"Of course, it is the duty of ordinary citizens and students to cooperate with the police. However, we have the right not to answer. Can you wait until my lawyer comes over?"
Qin Ya was the one who replied. She was also fighting for her rights in front of the officials and emphasized that Lin Yao was a student.
However, Lin Yao did not care about this. Immense fear remained in his heart, and even the Brave Heart could not eliminate this fear.
\ 'Why did the door-knocking freak appear here? Isn\'t it in Ninghai City?
\ 'How many people have been killed by it and continued to pretend to be ordinary people?\'
Qin Ya drove to the police station with Lin Yao. However, she soon noticed that there was something wrong with Lin Yao\'s expression. After patting Lin Yao on the shoulder, Lin Yao shuddered and reached for his weapon.
Fortunately, he came back to his senses in the end. He looked at the exhausted woman sitting next to him, the surrounding police cars, and the armed personnel in the car. Lin Yao felt a little embarrassed. "I\'ve caused you trouble."
"Trouble? This is not trouble at all. We didn\'t break the law. Instead, we helped the officials. We might even get a silk banner for being a Good Samaritan. By then, you will have promotional materials."
She was joking. However, Lin Yao\'s anxious mood improved a little when he heard her words.
"Don\'t be afraid. Freaks are scary, but you have to believe in the power of the government."
"Of course I believe that. I was not afraid just now. I just thought of some terrible things and felt bad for others."
His Brave Heart made it difficult for Lin Yao to feel fear for himself. Lin Yao was not frightened just now because he was timid. He had thought of some terrible things.
The door-knocking freak had affected two cities, and Lin Yao was terrified of how many humans had been harmed by the freak and turned into the living dead.
She would be truly heartless if she could still feel happy after knowing what Lin Yao was thinking.
\ 'Inhale … Inhale …\'
Lin Yao took a deep breath to calm the chaotic thoughts in his mind. After calming down a little, he took out his cell phone and made a call.
Click, click.
"What are you doing?"
Besides the two of them, there were three police officers sitting in the back row of Qin Ya\'s car, including the captain.
They were protecting Lin Yao and monitoring him at all times. His action of taking out his cell phone made all three of them wary.
"Don\'t get agitated. I\'m just making a call. It\'s from the police system."
After speaking, Lin Yao showed the contact information on his cell phone to the people behind him. The words\ 'Police Officer Wen\' were very clear.
After saying that, Lin Yao dialed the number and turned on the hands-free mode.
The phone rang a few times before it was picked up by a girl.
"Student Lin Yao, what\'s going on over there?"
When Wen Chang called in the middle of the night, her first thought was that Lin Yao was in trouble.
"No … Well, something\'s going on. I encountered the door-knocking freak again."
"What? Stay away from there. Don\'t go in. Wait for me to lead the team over. "
Upon hearing about the freak, Wen Chang immediately exhorted Lin Yao loudly, telling him to focus on protecting himself.
However, before she could finish speaking, Lin Yao said, "You can\'t come over. I\'m in Tianhai City. I encountered the freak in Tianhai City."
"Tianhai City? How could that be?"
Wen Chang was not a fool. In fact, as a competent policewoman, she had a very strong reasoning ability. Lin Yao merely said that the door-knocking freak had appeared in Tianhai City and created the living dead, and Wen Chang thought of many things in an instant.
For example, how many living dead had the freak created in Tianhai City? Or, did the freak only appear in Tianhai City and Ninghai City? Were there other surrounding cities affected by the freak?
After Lin Yao finished speaking, both of them fell silent. In the end, Qin Ya broke the silence.
"Wen Chang, get Mr. Lin out of the car first."
"Qin Ya, why are you here? Why are you with Student Lin?"
"You\'re still as stupid as before. Is this the time to ask these questions? Get Student Lin out of the car and let him return to where he belongs."
"You don\'t have to say that. Keep an eye on Student Lin and bring him back tomorrow … Get him out of the car? Is there an official next to you? "
Qin Ya did not answer. She merely motioned for Lin Yao to pass the phone to the captain.
"Hello, I\'m from Ninghai City …"
While the two captains were talking at the back, Lin Yao looked at Qin Ya strangely.
"Wen Chang is also your classmate."
"Of course, we are from the same cohort. In other words, some outstanding youths of similar age in the city are from our cohort." After saying that, Qin Ya glanced at Lin Yao. "I suggest you transfer to No. 1 High School after the arena competition."
