above the disease

Chapter 178: The Ghost and Snake Steam Car ([-])
With Fang Hui here, Zhou Zhi can always be on the front line.

God knows how many people Fang Hui parasitized in the steam train.

"what's the situation?"

Zhou Zhi was stunned.

……

NO.14 Carriage.

Epidemic control personnel arrived at the scene immediately.

At this moment, the interior of Car No. 14 was filled with panic. The silence maintained by the [narrow tunnel] that they just passed through still exists now.

It's just that the fear in those eyes cannot be eradicated no matter what.

What happened was very simple.

Just now, the steam train "Hope" traveled through a dark tunnel, an almost lightless place.

The original silence was suddenly broken by a scream.

It was the man's painful roar, and for a moment, the man's voice seemed to attract an unknown presence.

There was a sound of flesh being chewed and worn away. When I came out of the [narrow tunnel], I saw some light. What I also saw was the horrifying scene of the throat being completely hollowed out, forming a strange spiral cylindrical space.

And there was a knife stuck in the man's throat.

Death by cutting throat.

"The disease caused by the sound was not even complete. Under the blessing of the blade of external force, he died quickly."

Dong Qinghe arrived at the fourteenth carriage and looked at the corpse in front of him with a cold face.

The degree of disease in the [Narrow Tunnel] is based on the decibel of the sound. The man's scream just now was sharp, harsh, and heartbreaking, which also caused the corpse to be distorted.

"Mr. Epidemic Killer... Just now, this gentleman was still alive and well just now."

"After...after that tunnel, it's like this..."

On one side, the short man with colorfully dyed hair looked a little unhappy. He resisted retching and said to Dong Qinghe, while more eyes did not dare to focus on the corpse.

The [murder weapon] is right here.

Dong Qinghe scanned the passengers in the fourteen carriages, focusing on observing the reactions of the people around the corpse.

The [murderer] should be inside too.

"When traveling long distances, there is always a mixed bag of people on the train."

Dong Qinghe frowned.

As the leader of the train crew, Dong Qinghe has traveled the route to Dadu more than a dozen times. In fact, long-distance travel will indeed breed the ambitions of others. In a long-term closed environment, a lot of malice is also spread.

The key is that after boarding the train, the train crew had no way to quickly contact Pingchang Road, let alone find the identity of the deceased or determine the relationship.

"Which of you knows this guy?"

Dong Qinghe looked serious and asked.

Dong Qinghe's answer was only silence.

"He is a very taciturn gentleman. He basically doesn't talk much."

The short man took courage.

There was no objection around him, which proved that the short man was not lying.

"Using disease to kill people."

Dong Qinghe judged.

It's hard to do now.

"It would be nice if there was a forensic doctor here."

Dong Qinghe looked extremely serious. If the murderer is determined, as one of the leaders of the train, the epidemic exterminator even has the right to execute justice on the spot, but now...

"Mr. Epidemic Killer, what should we do?"

"There's a murderer on the train!"

"He is between us, catch him quickly."

The bustling sound made Dong Qinghe feel a little uncomfortable.

It would be easier to eliminate the disease.

"Now... what should we do?" Dong Qinghe is still very experienced in these things, and the best solution is to find a scapegoat.

As for whether it was a wrongful conviction or not, it has no particular significance to Dong Qinghe. Long-distance steam trains have certain death indicators.

But it is a bad idea after all.

Dong Qinghe still hopes that this matter can be resolved more appropriately.

……

"Using disease to kill people..."

Zhou Zhi listened to Fang Hui's retelling.

In a world where epidemics are rampant, the method of killing people through disease is quite common.

The murderer was sure that the train would pass through the [narrow tunnel] and only needed a knife to complete the murder.

"Dong Qinghe is in a hurry. There are nearly a hundred people in one carriage. If the murder case is left unsolved, problems will arise."

Zhou Zhi bowed his head slightly.

This closed train is a small society, and the passengers who spent a lot of money to buy tickets all have their own agendas.

"What should I do?"

"That plague exterminator doesn't look very smart, at least not as smart as the two of us."

Fang Hui said confidently.

"If it were me, the bottom line would be to find a random murderer and tell everyone that the murderer has been caught."

Zhou Zhi said: "But this is to stabilize the situation. I still don't want innocent people to suffer injustice. Life is very valuable."

Fang Hui has never quite understood Zhou Zhi's values: "My dear Zhou Zhi, when you were killing people, you were not in the same state as you are now."

"It's different. I'm willing to save others, and I'm also willing to kill others. There's no conflict."

"The people I want to save have the [value] of being saved by me. The people I want to kill, although they are worthless, at least have the [value] of being killed by me."

Fang Hui was stunned by Zhou Zhi's words.

"So, it's none of your business?"

Zhou Zhi looked out the window: "Just tell me who the murderer is."

Fang Hui blinked: "How do you know I know who the murderer is?"

Zhou Zhi looked away from Fang Hui and said, "Is there anything on this train that you don't know?"

When Fang Hui heard Zhou Zhi's words, he looked a little impressed. Then, he coughed slightly and cleared his throat: "This time, things are really not simple."

"I originally thought it was just an ordinary murder, but after I parasitized a few people, I realized that... it wasn't right."

Fang Hui became a little more serious: "There are many epidemic fighters on the [Hope] steam train."

"They are...organized and premeditated plague exterminators."

Zhou Zhi's expression moved slightly.

"how many people."

Zhou Zhi looked out the window.

"There are three to four full-level epidemic eradication officers, and ten trainee epidemic eradication officers, divided into each carriage."

Fang Hui whispered: "Actually, I have wanted to tell you for a long time, but these people have been very peaceful for the past ten days. I thought there would be no fun, but I didn't expect that a murder occurred today."

"The guy who died was just an ordinary passerby, but the person who took action was a member of that organization."

Why are you just sitting in a train with so many monsters and monsters on the train?

"Formal-level plague exterminators, I can parasitize at will, but now I am only a real body. Once parasitized, I will be discovered, so there is no way to determine how many formals there are, but I have a rough idea of ​​those trainees. They come from a group called The force of [Fireworks Crowd] should be a branch of the dark epidemic eradication world."

Zhou Zhi thinks the name is quite poetic: "Seller of fireworks, the dark epidemic eradication industry really has a wide range of businesses."

Fang Hui blinked: "Unfortunately, not really."

"[Fireworks] refers to something in our dark epidemic eradication world."

"[Huayan]... Of course, if it were in the Chengyun Dynasty, it would have a pretty cute name."

Fang Hui said with a smile.

"[Crows disperse]."
