Chapter 54 Rope

In a trance.

It's like the old days are coming back.

She is an employee of this supermarket. Because of her family background, she is introverted, taciturn and very unpopular... Not only is she not as good as her articulate colleagues at work, but her relationship with her colleagues is not very good. Many people say that she is very gloomy. Her only advantage is that she is beautiful.

And this only advantage that others mentioned actually harmed her.

One day, the supermarket manager who had been harassing her asked her to go to the basement to find something...

Roaring, crying, screaming.

After the violence.

The girl was left alone in the dark and cramped room.

The reason why the manager was so bold was that he thought her personality...would not tell such a thing to others.

When you hear these words from the abuser.

The girl stood up silently and found the rope.

And before death.

Her only thought was - she really wanted to exchange her life with someone else's.

...This way, I should be able to live a more exciting life.

"..."

The scene freezes at the moment when the girl stops struggling... and dies in pain.

then.

Chen Lusi suddenly came to his senses and stumbled to the ground.

"what happened?"

Wu You and others had already followed in at this time.

But they did not see the girl's body.

The body has disappeared.

All they saw was a thick white hemp rope covered with dark red stains falling from mid-air.

After Chen Lusi stabilized his body, he did not respond in a hurry. Instead, he slowly raised his head and looked at the thin thread that he had cut.

After the thin thread was cut, it shook for a moment, and then, as if being controlled by someone, it began to retract upwards... and gradually disappeared into the void.

at the same time.

A few kilometers away.

The thin line extending from the palm of Sun Rensheng's right hand suddenly loosened, as if the force at the other end had disappeared.

"...Was the recovery this time so smooth?"

Sun Rensheng completely retracted the thin thread, then lowered his head and looked at the palm of his hand with some confusion.

In general.

After the Five-Power Authority strengthens the dead person's strong thoughts into legends and activates them, he, the controller, will suffer a certain degree of backlash if he wants to withdraw.

After all, he is controlling the strongest thoughts of the dead before they die... After losing control, the dead will have extremely strong resentment.

But soon, Sun Rensheng put this matter behind him.

After all, the authority was successfully recovered and nothing went wrong.

And in his opinion, the deceased this time was a bitch who couldn't even struggle... It was normal to recover it easily.

of course.

the most important reason.

He still felt angry.

He was already looking for the next victim.

This time, he decided to find a deceased person whose desires before death were even stronger, in order to completely scare that idiot named Chen Lusi out of his wits!

"Wait!"

Sun Rensheng stood up and spat fiercely.

[The first-level authority of the folk system - Wutong.]

……

Chen Lusi witnessed the thin line disappear with his own eyes, and then he lowered his head again.

Can't say why.

He still felt that someone was controlling the girl.

If that's true... then I have to say, the person on the other end of the line is really bad.

Playing with the dead.

Even in Chen Lusi's opinion... this was the kind of bad thing that couldn't be laughed off.

"Chen Lusi."

Seeing that Chen Lusi hadn't said anything, Wu You held his shoulders and shook him gently.

"I wasn't switched."

Chen Lusi turned around and looked at Wu You and the others who had followed him in, and explained, "I just saw something that concerned me."

"Something you care about?"

Wu You was a little confused.

Chen Lusi explained the whole story.

Everyone was silent when they heard this.

"A thin line... What is that? And why can your knife cut through the thin line?"

Jin Yi was the first to react and asked curiously.

"I don't know."

Chen Lu thought about it and shook his head slightly.

Jin Yi was slightly stunned, then looked at Wu You and Xia Panqiu, thinking that this was an internal secret among them, so he closed his mouth and did not ask any further questions.

Wu You and Xia Panqiu knew the truth.

Chen Lusi was telling the truth, he really didn't know...

Even Ayue and Xiaoxiao haven't figured out what Chen Lusi's authority is.

but.

Neither of them explained.

Wu You looked at the thick white hemp rope lying quietly on the ground, covered with dark red stains. He hesitated for a moment and suddenly asked, "So... is this the source of all this? The culprit who made us switch with the counterfeit?"

"Ah."

Jin Yi nodded upon hearing this. "Based on the last scene the girl showed Chen Lusi, I'm guessing... this should be the source. The effect is probably still preserved, so it can barely be considered an antique."

Xia Panqiu pursed her red lips and whispered, "So, this was her last wish before she died..."

The others fell silent again after hearing this.

Although everyone was almost hanged because of this thing...but we are all ordinary people and it is impossible to be absolutely rational when looking at things.

Everyone was silent.

"Want to exchange lives with someone else..."

Chen Lusi also cast his gaze at the thick white hemp rope on the ground, muttered to himself, then walked over, bent down and picked up the rope.

Although the body was gone, the dark red flesh and blood still remained.

Chen Lusi reached out and patted it, but the dark red stain had already soaked into the fibers and could not be removed at all.

He quickly gave up, took the rope, and returned to the group. He then handed it to Peng Wanyong and asked, "Do you know about this, Officer Peng?"

Peng Wanyong looked at Chen Lusi's face and said seriously, "I'll check it out."

"Thank you."

Chen Lusi thanked them and then looked at the other four people: "Now what are you going to do with this rope that has been used to hang people?"

Jin Yi said softly, "This is an antique. Although I don't know how much use it can have outside without the deceased, it obviously can't be left here. Let's put it away.

You saved my life... I can't bring myself to ask you to take it back. You, the Third Battalion, should keep it. I will omit the relevant information from my report."

Chen Lusi was stunned when he heard this, then he reacted and handed the rope to Wu You and Xia Panqiu.

"..."

Wu You scratched his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Put it in your bag. Take it back first, and then let Xiaoxiao decide."

"Row."

Chen Lusi nodded, then unzipped the bag, folded the rope and put it into the bag.

"gone."

Wu You watched Chen Lusi put away the rope and patted him on the shoulder. "It should be done. Go out and get some fresh air...Officer Peng, I'll leave this to you. It should be fine. If you have any questions, please contact us."

Peng Wanyong nodded: "Okay."

Chen Lusi did not object after confirming that everything was normal.

Everyone began to leave.

Chen Lusi was still at the end of the team.

And before going out.

He suddenly sensed something and looked back.

But there was nothing behind him.

Chapter 55 Sunbathing

The beginning of summer has passed.

The temperature is gradually rising.

The weather has become hot.

This is not obvious inside the supermarket because of the air conditioning.

But when you walk out into the sun-baked area, it’s a different story.

It's really hot.

of course.

No one felt hot at the moment, after all, their lives were hanging by a thread... Being able to see the sunlight alive was a great blessing.

Peng Wanyong had just come out of Shangchao, said goodbye to everyone, and went to busy himself with finishing work.

Jin Yi and Tian Wencheng were similar. As soon as they came out, they said goodbye to Chen Lusi and others and prepared to go back to report.

They did not belong to the Third Brigade, and members of different brigades did not seem to have a tradition of visiting each other... Wu You said goodbye naturally, and the six people separated.

Wu You took Xia Panqiu and Chen Lusi to the parking lot.

Because nothing happened and the expected explosive scenes did not appear, there were fewer onlookers near the supermarket.
