In a crossover anime, do you believe that a machine spirit can defeat a fake human?

"The videotape fell out of my pocket and was found under the bed." Miao Mu took a small box out of his pocket and placed it in Chen Yi's hand.

"The videotape holder showed extreme terror before his death, just like the case I handled last night."

"If we could wake up the person in the bed, we might be able to find out how the holder died."

Miao Mu leaned against the window and couldn't resist taking out a cigarette from his pocket and smoking it as if no one else was around.

Chen Yi turned his head and glanced at the electrocardiogram, which showed a straight line.

He looked down at the videotape again and roughly counted six pencil marks.

Just like the case Miao Mu had handled before, the person died from six pencil marks.

The deceased were in almost identical condition.

This is no coincidence.

“This…” Chen Yi couldn’t help but want to ask Officer Miao Mu.

"I don't know much, so far..."

"You could say you know nothing at all."

Chen Yi fell silent.

"However, I do have a guess... Ladies, would you mind leaving for a moment?" Miao Mu stubbed out his half-smoked cigarette, turned around to face Chen Yi, and put his hands in his pockets.

"It's okay, they won't bother you."

Chen Yi's lips curled up slightly for a moment, then he suppressed it again.

“Uh…” Miao Mu was momentarily stumped.

"Can't keep making this up?"

Chen Yi placed his thumb on the label on the videotape and rubbed it hard a few times.

When I raised my hand again, the two pencil marks had blurred.

"You don't really think you can fool me with clues that are only half true, do you?"

Don't make your brother Chen Yi laugh.

Now it was 'saplings' that fell silent.

“I know you’re not human, I knew from the beginning. But I do have a question for you. If you answer it well, I can let you go.”

"Commander!" Kroos cried out anxiously.

"I know what I'm doing," Chen Yi waved his hand.

The classic red and white cop look.

"...Then ask away."

After a long, suffocating silence, 'Sapling' hesitated for a moment before glancing at Kroos and finally spoke.

"I'm curious, now that you have a human appearance, is your thought process more like that of a pseudo-human or a human? I think your schemes are quite similar to those in TV dramas, but they are more about identity fraud, like in spy movies."

Chen Yi sat on another empty chair next to the hospital bed, placed the rifle on the ground, and crossed his legs.

"...Humans are easier to understand because they start from human thinking, which makes it easier to set traps. But obviously, I've fallen for it this time."

'Sapling' sighed.

"That makes me even more curious. Since you're using human thinking, why are you only thinking about killing? Shouldn't you be able to discover more than just killing from a human perspective?"

"..."

'Saplings' fell silent again.

"You wouldn't understand." That was all it could say.

"I really do want to learn about race warfare?"

Chen Yi changed his posture and asked with great interest.

He only knew the concept.

"More or less, but there are others... but I won't tell you."

"I see... That's a pity."

Klukka suddenly raised her gun and pierced 'Saigi's' knee.

"You! Didn't you say you'd let me go through the spirit medium?!" 'Miao Mu' cried out in pain and uncontrollably knelt down on the ground.

"Hey, that's hilarious. You weren't thinking about killing me the whole time we were chatting? Then why were you tapping on the windowsill with your fingers every now and then?"

Chen Yi stood up, placed his hand on the head of the patient's corpse on the hospital bed, and turned his head towards the 'seedling'.

"Do you think I can't see the sutures on the corpse's head?"

Chen Yi released his grip, and a pistol instantly appeared in his hand.

"Guess why that tentacle dummy didn't respond to your hints and cooperate with you?" Chen Yi walked around the hospital bed and pressed the pistol against 'Sapling's' forehead.

"..." 'Sapling' fell silent at this moment, as if its previous pleas for mercy were just an illusion.

How much cunning can beasts possess?

Chen Yi tilted his head slightly.

"boom!"

Stop increasing laughter.

Day Seven: Chapter 273 Burned Out

Chapter 273

"The fifth floor hasn't been evacuated yet... Mr. Chen?"

Miao Mu was directing the evacuation of the people at the west stairwell on the fourth floor of Building 4, holding a rifle and a radio. Beside him were the Alfa team that had already joined up with him, as well as two or three Delta team members who were still capable of carrying out combat missions.

Suddenly, she spotted Chen Yi coming from the other side of the corridor and instinctively loosened her grip on the walkie-talkie.

"Miaomu, have you had any contact with fake people before?"

Chen Yi immediately asked the question upon arriving.

"?...When I was directing the evacuation next to the orthopedics department, Alfa and I repelled a fake human, but unfortunately we couldn't kill it. What happened?" Naegi paused for a moment, but still answered truthfully.

“Imitator, you impersonated me and tricked me into a trap.” Chen Yi handed the videotape to the other party.

“I followed the overpass from Building 2 all the way here. You didn’t give me a radio, so we can’t contact each other,” Chen Yi said, shrugging.

Fortunately, Kroc can directly track the movement of seedlings through monitoring; otherwise, it would be impossible to find someone in such a large hospital.

"I'm sorry, that was my oversight... So what do we do next?"

"The matter should be nearing its end. The other person who possessed the videotape is also dead. He was in the cardiology ward, room number three, on the east side of building number two. He was a patient's family member."

"...So the trail has gone cold again?"

"From the current perspective... you could say that," Chen Yi said helplessly.

Everything has returned to square one; we'll just have to take it one step at a time.

"At least I took care of the tentacle dummy for you, so it can't be considered a complete loss."

Thank you.

This is a personal thank you.

"I'll help you find clues about the videotape, I promise."

"Officer Naegi, you should rest for now," Chen Yi said, glancing at him and unable to resist making a comment.

He now understands how others perceive him; this guy really looks like he could die at any moment.

As for Chen Yi himself, three days is enough time to get through it; he'll be fine.

He thought the videotape had escalated the intensity of the battle, but after thinking it over tonight, he realized it was all a setup by the tentacle imposter.

Could this videotape possibly summon two Thunder Crocodiles on the road? Obviously not, so there's nothing to worry about.

Moreover, now that the tentacle dummy is dead, no other dummy has appeared that can attack him during the day, so he no longer needs to be on edge all the time.

Of course, this relaxation will probably only last until the next time the fake person comes knocking.

"...Phew, you're right."

Miao Mu paused for a moment, then reluctantly admitted the truth.

The large amount of drugs that hadn't been metabolized earlier did indeed help him withstand the mental attacks from the tentacle pseudo-humans, but the cost was enormous.

He was supposed to go to the emergency room before midnight.

As for now...

"The fact that I'm still standing means I'm fine for now. We'll talk about it later. But Mr. Chen, you look like you haven't had a good rest."

Miao Mu was slightly worried about her organs, but then she immediately remembered that there were still a lot of things to deal with, so she had to put the thought aside for the time being.

"So I plan to go back and rest now."

"But the body of the person who owned the videotape hasn't been disposed of yet, so I think we might still be able to find some clues."

Sigh, this is never going to end.

"There were no external injuries to the exposed skin, no bloodstains or bodily fluids, and the person was lying face down when they died. That's all. I guess it was a normal, non-accidental death, like being poisoned by that imitator... I didn't see anything else, I was too busy finishing off the imitator... Also, Officer Naegi, you'd better go and rest for a while... I'm going back now, there's nothing else for me here."

"Phew... In that case, we'll have to call in a forensic doctor..."

Miao Mu watched Chen Yi gradually disappear into the distance, then leaned against the wall to rest for a while, her body stretched to its limit.

"The fifth floor has been evacuated. Bravo team, what's the situation on your end?"

The members of Alfa's team heard a heavy thud and turned around to find Miao Muwu lying unconscious in the corridor.

......

It's not that it can't, what I mean is... if this videotape had self-awareness, its life's ambition would definitely be to kill me, and it would be doing everything in its power at all times.

After getting back into the car and starting the engine, before they had even left the hospital by more than a kilometer, a fake man had already caught up with them.

Among them were a few old friends, Spider-Men, whom I had met many times before.

Of course, there are not only spider-men, but also all sorts of colorful monsters. However, thanks to the uncoordinated nature of their limbs during growth, they can't even get their hands on exhaust fumes.

"Da da da da..."

With half his body leaning out of the car, Chen Yiyi used bullets to suppress the spider-men.

"Was this the same when you came over?"

As Chen Yi pulled back to reload, he asked Lorelei next door.

Lorelei drove when we arrived, so naturally Kroos drove when we returned.

"It's a bit more dangerous than it is now."

It's even more dangerous than it is now...

Oh, so that's the guy who works even harder than Spider-Man, right?

Chen Yi roughly understood.

It was truly a gathering of wise men and women, young and old alike.

"Oh!"

While Chen Yi was changing magazines, Lorelei leaned out and casually headshot one of the Spider-Men who was chasing her closely.

After the three shots were fired, Lorelei got back into the car and tidied her hair, which had been flying wildly in the wind.

Chen Yi looked back and saw the spider-man struggling in the flames, shrinking in his field of vision.

"Kroos, how far is it from home?"

"There are about two more intersections."

It's very close.

"Speed ​​up and leave them behind."
