This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 358

  Chapter 358 After the storm

  There is no shadow on the corpse. From this point of view, the shadow may be the person's body.

  The person's appearance changed, and the text in the game when Granny Tang became a shadow ghost first changed the appearance into a shadow shape, and then prompted to become a shadow ghost.

  This form of transformation reminded Mu You of 'skin'.

Players enter the Astral World by betting a virtual mind avatar into the Astral World. If the mind avatar can find the corpses of the aborigines in the Astral World, whether it is the remains of those who died in the past or temporarily killed, they can 'Wear' is the skin, which exists instead of the corresponding aborigines.

  Since players can enter the Astral Realm in the form of game characters, is it possible for people from the Astral Realm to invade Earth in a similar way?

If the shadow is regarded as the skin, the people in the astral world obtain the shadow of the earth person through some method, and through the shadow, they can change their appearance into the appearance of the corresponding earth person, thus hiding on the earth without anyone noticing, mixing in Normal work and life among human beings.

  The reason for this guess is that when Mu You was investigating the young man with glasses, the other party did not give back the game ID.

  If this person is from the astral world, and the young man with glasses he sees is just a "game character" of the other party, then everything makes sense.

  The muscular man that Lin Xue killed in front of him was just one of the opponent's 'skins'. By abandoning this skin and the car to keep him handsome, the main body, the shadow, escaped.

   "I'll go to the beach to have a look." Lin Xue said, and ran towards the beach with a sickle in hand.

  The direction the other party wanted to escape just now was obviously going to the beach. If the other party used the shadow to escape, the most likely way was to run to the beach.

   Mu You didn't stop her, but he didn't hold out too much hope. In this kind of wilderness with no lights, it's too easy for a shadow to escape.

  After Lin Xue left, Mu You turned his head and looked at the two shadow ghosts not far ahead.

  At this time, the two shadow ghosts were still fiercely fighting each other, but after the initial stage of fighting, the gap between the two sides had been quickly manifested.

The later shadow ghost was obviously not the opponent of the box shadow ghost. After the initial violent aura dissipated, all that was left was to be beaten. It became shorter and shorter, and the strength gap between the two sides became wider and wider.

   Tens of seconds later, the box shadow ghost finally made up for the final blow, tearing the extremely weak shadow ghost in two with one claw.

  Shadow Ghost fell to the ground in an unwilling wail, and the black air quickly dissipated, leaving only the body of a man in black with round eyes and an extremely frightened expression. He was already dead and could not die again.

   While Mu You was at hand, the little girl had woken up at some point, and was standing behind Mu You, staring blankly at the shadow ghost in front of her, the confusion in her eyes gradually dissipating.

   Mu You didn't have time to pay attention to her, so he quickly took the shadow ghost box in his hand, and the pocket watch in the other hand.

  The next question is how to seal up this shadow ghost...

  Mu You was able to release the shadow ghost so decisively just now, one is because the shadow ghost reacted to the little girl, and the other is that the shadow ghost showed signs of being able to communicate before.

   But even so, Mu You didn't think that the other party was finally released and would go back obediently.

  In the distance, after killing the opponent, the shadow ghost's eyes continued to frenzy, and he immediately began to look for the next target.

   Turning his gaze, he saw Ye Rumeng in the distance.

  Seeing that the little girl was blocked by another person, the shadow ghost immediately screamed angrily, dropped the body of the man in black under his feet, and rushed towards the two of them.

   Shadow Ghost arrived in the blink of an eye, raised his sharp claws towards Mu You, and was about to swing it down.

  Mu You had already hidden the box behind him at this time, waiting for the shadow ghost to take it out in a flash.

"don't want!"

  However, just as the shadow ghost was about to slap it with sharp claws, Ye Rumeng, who was behind him, suddenly stepped forward and shouted instinctively.

   Mu You was taken aback, and subconsciously pulled the little girl behind her to protect her, and was about to press the pocket watch immediately.

   Unexpectedly, at this time, after hearing the little girl's voice, the shadow ghost suddenly stopped, and instead of continuing to attack, it floated backwards.

  Shadow Ghost floated in mid-air, looking at the girl protected by Mu You, wanting to get close but dared not, not knowing where to place her claws, like a child who did something wrong.

   After a pause for a few seconds, the shadow ghost rushed towards the two of them again, but this time it didn't attack, but plunged into the box in Mu You's hand.

  The box closed automatically, and there was no movement.

  Mu You looked at the Shadow Ghost's box in surprise, and then at the little girl. Unexpectedly, under the little girl's words, the Shadow Ghost actually went back by himself...

   "Woooooooooooo..."

  At this moment, he noticed that Ye Rumeng behind him suddenly started to cry, looking very sad.

   "Mengmeng, what did you remember?" Mu You hurriedly asked her.

"No…"

  The little girl shook her head, tears were still welling up in her eyes, she raised the back of her hand to wipe, but the tears grew more and more.

   "I just suddenly feel... so sad..."

  After crying for a long time, she raised her head, looked at Mu You with tears in her eyes and asked, "Mu You, my sister...is she really alive?"

"certainly."

   Mu You nodded towards her, although he also had some doubts whether the shadow ghost in the box was the little girl's sister.

   But the conclusion that her sister is still alive is the result of what divination told him at the beginning, and it is said that there will be no mistakes...

   At this time, footsteps sounded in the distance.

  The two turned their heads to look, and it was Lin Xue who walked out of the darkness.

   "How is it?" Mu You asked.

   "I didn't find it." Lin Xue shook her head.

   "Forget it, you can take her back first, I will deal with it here."

   Mu You raised his head and looked into the distance. At this moment, the sound of sirens around him had gathered from all directions, and soon the police and people from the Dissonance Bureau would arrive at the scene.

   "Okay, then be careful."

  Lin Xue nodded, took the little girl and left first, and quickly disappeared into the night.

  After Lin Xue left, Mu You didn't leave the scene, but changed his skin, and sat down on a rock next to the muscular man's body.

  A moment later, the sound of large footsteps sounded from a distance, and then the beams of various flashlights shone on him.

   "Muyou?"

  In the distance, a familiar voice sounded first.

   "Don't shoot, you guys!"

  Accompanied by this shout, a group of armed police officers ran from a distance, led by Zhang Yang.

   "Here we come." Mu You raised his hand in greeting.

"Mu You, what's going on here? Where's the shadow ghost?" Zhang Yang looked at the mess on the ground in surprise. The trees on the scene were crumbling, the ground was cracked, and there were big and small pits everywhere on the ground. It was obvious that the place had just experienced A pretty brutal battle.

   "You guys are one step late, the battle is over." Mu You said.

   "Did you solve it?"

   Zhang Yang looked at him in shock, and then at the corpse not far away. The news he just received said that a shadow ghost appeared in the urban area of ​​K City, and it destroyed a block in an instant.

   Fortunately, someone seemed to have appeared at the scene, who led the shadow ghost away in time and led them all the way to the outskirts of the city.

  After they received the police, they drove towards the crime scene as soon as possible, but it was a step too late, and what they didn't expect was that they saw Mu You first when they arrived at the scene.

  Instinctively, he thought that Mu You was the one who distracted and solved the shadow ghost.

   "How can I have such a great ability." Mu You shook his head and smiled.

   "Then this is?"

   "It's the ghost captain, and the red sickle girl."

  This is half true and half false, anyway, just push everything to another identity.

"ah…"

   Zhang Yang didn't expect that these two mysterious bosses would be involved.

   "What's going on specifically? Tell me!" Zhang Yang hurriedly asked.

"I came here a little earlier than you guys. When I rushed over, the battle had come to an end. Those two big bosses solved the shadow ghost, but there seemed to be a hidden culprit behind it. The two big bosses showed me At the scene, they chased the murderer."

   "Where did you go?"

   "Over there." Mu You pointed to the direction of the beach.

   "Quick, you guys, go over and help."

  Zhang Yang hurriedly assigned a group of people to go in the direction Mu You pointed, while the rest immediately blocked the scene.

  Until the support troops arrived and everything settled down, Zhang Yang breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Fortunately, nothing major happened...but then you have to go back with me to make a record."

   "I understand." Mu You nodded.

   Next, Mu You followed Zhang Yang back to the Bureau of Disorders by car, and described his experience tonight with half-truths and half-fakes.

  Everything he said perfectly matched the situation on the scene, so no one doubted it.

  However, Mu You also knows that it is impossible to rely on his explanation alone to determine the nature of this matter, and he will definitely find another party, Captain Ghost, to verify it.

   After Mu You came home late at night, he turned on his phone and checked. Sure enough, Jiuyou had received a private chat on the forum, asking him politely about what happened tonight.

   "I solved the shadow ghost, but the mastermind behind it was not caught, and was run away by that thing..."

  Mu You and the other party briefly talked about what happened, which happened to confirm his record at the police station.

   By the way, he also specifically mentioned the other party's means of escape.

"You mean, this person might not be a human being, but a...'something' from the astral world?" Jiuyou was very surprised, of course he could hear Captain Ghost's hint, and if it was true, It means that creatures in the star spirit world can pretend to be human beings through some means, and stir up wind and rain on the earth.

  There are too many problems that can be involved...

   "It's just a guess. I'm not sure about the details. It's up to you to investigate." Mu You replied.

   "Okay, leave it to us, and we will inform you of the investigation results in time. Anyway, today is really thanks to your timely action, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." Jiuyou replied.

   "It's nothing, it's just a matter of convenience..."

  Then the two exchanged a few more simple greetings before hanging up the private chat.

   After finishing the work, Mu You breathed a sigh of relief and sat back on the sofa, only then did he have time to take out the Shadow Ghost Box and have a look.

  In the box, Shadow Ghost was quietly curling up in a corner, as if taking a rest, noticing Mu You's gaze, but ignoring his intentions.

   Mu You tried to communicate with it, such as asking it if it knew the little girl, if she was the little girl's sister, etc., but the other party didn't respond. He talked for a long time as if he was playing the piano to a cow.

  Just as Mu You was patiently preparing to continue trying, a mobile phone rang, and it came from the old-fashioned mobile phone given by Lu Yao.

   "You asked me to check the identities of the two people, and I found them." When the phone was connected, Lu Yao said this.

   "Oh? Who is it?" Mu You asked.

   "Both of them are from the book, a force called 'Fengleimen', and the young one should be the default heir of Fengleimen, equivalent to the head of the family."

   "Wind Thunder Gate?" Mu You recalled for a while, and confirmed that he had no impression of this name at all.

   "It's a mafia organization with mediocre strength and a low reputation in Japan. It's normal if you don't know." Lu Yao said, "However, there is something very strange about that young man wearing glasses."

"What?"

"It is said that this man used to be a very perverted dude. He would fight, fight, eat, drink, prostitute and gamble. It was commonplace to get involved in the game. He was not the heir in Fengleimen... But since five years ago From a certain day, this person's personality suddenly underwent a huge change. He became calm, studious, unsmiling, and extremely self-disciplined overnight. In just three months, he was completely recognized as the heir of Fengleimen. Mastered the real power of the family..." Lu Yao said.

"five years ago…"

  Mu You rubbed his chin. This time is a bit familiar. In the game before, it seems that the time when Granny Tang appeared in the Cook Islands was also five years ago...

Coupled with the sudden change in this person's personality, his previous guess is more likely to come true: this person was probably replaced by another person five years ago. The power of the door, secretly doing something...

   This also explains why this person does not have a game ID. If this guy is from the Astral Realm, he cannot be accepted by the game of fools.

  However, since this information can be easily found by Lu Yao within a day, it is supposed to be easier for the country to find out.

   It is estimated that there should be news before tomorrow morning.

   Next, Mu You continued to hang up the game, continued to search for clues in the meeting of the undead, and secretly followed the news on the forum.

  The next morning at around five o'clock, Mu You did receive a call from Zhang Yang.

   "The identities of the two corpses have been found out. They are both Japanese. The muscular man among them is said to have disappeared more than four years ago and has not been heard from since. I didn't expect that he would appear here in the form of a corpse yesterday."

   "What about the other one?"

   "The other one is also a Japanese. He has lived in China for a long time. He appears to be a businessman. However, after we investigated his identity, we found that he belongs to a Japanese faction called 'Fengleimen'."

Zhang Yang paused, and then continued: "In addition, regarding this Fengleimen, a few days ago, the person in charge of this faction, a young man named Tetsuya Kusanagi, just arrived in K City by plane, and we checked it overnight last night. No, there is no one in the place where they registered to live, and no clues of these people have been found in other places in K City. It is very likely that they have fled the country... We are now speculating that this person may be behind this incident Mastermind!"

   "What about the casualties?" Mu You asked.

"It has been counted. Five people died, more than two hundred were injured, and countless buildings were damaged... Of course, the wounded buildings are easy to say. There are healing spells and repair spells. It is not difficult to restore and rebuild. Fortunately, all the people are now Players, physical fitness has improved a lot, which has greatly reduced the death rate."

   Zhang Yang sighed after finishing speaking: "However, the impact of this incident is still very bad! The leaders above are said to be very angry. They discussed it all night and have decided to investigate to the end!"

   "So?" Mu You heard that Zhang Yang had something to say.

"So, there is a matter now." Zhang Yang said awkwardly: "The higher-ups decided to send a group of experts from various places to form an 'exchange team' to go to Japan to investigate this matter in detail. This has already been approved by the Japanese government. gone."

   "After all, this happened in our city K. It would be a bit unreasonable if our branch didn't send people there, but we have too few masters here..." Zhang Yang was very embarrassed.

  Mu You naturally understood, Zhang Yang hoped that he could go to Japan with a group on behalf of City K.

   "Of course, this is not compulsory. If you don't want to go, I completely understand..." Hearing that Mu You hadn't moved, Zhang Yang quickly said again.

   "Go, of course I will go." Mu You said suddenly.

   "Ah, are you really going?"

   "Why don't you go on a public tour. Besides, I'm one of the witnesses at the scene, so it's best for me to go." Mu You said with a smile.

   Not to mention that the matter of Shadow Ghost and Fengleimen are all related to him, on the other hand, he has long wanted to go to Japan to investigate the little girl's life experience. It's just that he suddenly ran to Japan alone, which was somewhat abrupt and his identity was a little sensitive. Now that he went with the group, he could conduct an investigation openly.
