Chapter 518 City of Darkness
When Lorena learned that the evil spirit occupying the haunted house had been eliminated, she did not hide her disappointment at all. After all, she originally wanted to eliminate demons, but unfortunately...
"Huh? So fast?"
"I didn't expect that these two idiots would be so stupid to do it the day we moved in."
Facing the lost Lorena, Duanmu Huai also helplessly spread his hands. After all, he didn't expect that it wasn't like this. It wasn't like this according to the general routine of ghost movies, but it's a pity...the evil spirit here doesn't follow the routine.
"Speaking of which, what have you gained?"
"Absolutely not."
Lorena shook her head.
"Although this is a good place for a night run, I haven't encountered anything at all."
"Why………"
Although he had expected it, Duanmu Huai was somewhat disappointed when he heard this answer. After all, judging from the files, the date of the victim's murder in the past few months has not been regular, it is completely random—the most annoying thing is this Kind of a random crime.
This reminded Duanmuhuai of the shocking serial strong-arming case a long time ago. At that time, the perpetrator's time was irregular, and the police were so angry. The criminal suspect's time of committing crimes also varied quite a bit. Sometimes the police would guard him for several months without moving, and he would start committing crimes as soon as the police evacuated.
At that time, many policemen even wondered if this guy was deliberately contradicting the police.
It wasn’t until the suspect was caught that he found out that the law of his crimes was like this—as long as he quarreled with his wife at home, he would go out to commit crimes that night, and he would go if he didn’t quarrel.
Faced with this kind of logic, no one can do anything, right?
If the prisoner is like this this time, only going out to commit crimes after arguing with his wife, then he will be desperate.
Even the time when the auntie visits is fixed. Who can calculate the time when the husband and wife quarrel!
Isn't that half immortal?
All in all, there is no other good way but to wait for the rabbit.
After waking up and having breakfast, Lorena went out to continue shopping and fishing, while Duanmu Huai went on to stay at the Royal Master's College. Among other things, let's take a look at the young and beautiful girls in the Master's College. It's all a treat. But it's a pity that although this is a school, the students here don't wear miniskirts that are as short as the thighs in anime, but almost wear long dresses...
Well, it has a special flavor.
After a few days of unannounced visits, Duanmuhuai has almost searched the information of the teachers in the entire Royal Master Academy, and then he will deal with people one by one according to the information, for example...
coming.
At this moment, a man in a brown suit with a leather bag in his arms entered Duanmu Huai's field of vision. This man looks ordinary, and looks a little wretched. Other than that, the most striking thing is that he always holds his handbag like a baby, looks like a thief, and walks forward while looking around.
Remember he is... Joseph Capek.
Staring at the man in front of him, Duanmu Huai quickly found out the information. This teacher is not well-reviewed among the students, which is a matter of course. Just look at his timid and timid appearance like a thief. Even after the female students, he has the nickname of the leather bag teacher.
Hmm... To be honest, he is at the top of Duanmuhuai's suspicion list.
As for why? The reason is very simple.
After all, among the animations that Duanmuhuai has watched before, don’t there often be such characters? The unpopular teacher suddenly obtained hypnotic ability or some kind of equipment, and then in order to counter the students' ridicule and vent their dissatisfaction, he began to act recklessly against the students by relying on his special ability, turning them into obedient students. slaves, and finally ruled over the entire academy, becoming the ruler of the shadows of the school or something...
Isn't this kind of development in works like "After School - Wet X's Uniform" or "Cui O Academy" or "X Work"?
Judging from the rich experience of Duanmuhuai reading group O, there must be something wrong with this teacher!
Absolutely can't run away!
As if to verify Duanmuhuai's conjecture, I saw that Professor Capek just walked across the square, then hugged the leather bag, and chatted with the trio of beautiful girls not far away with a smile. Facing his accusation, the three girls looked a bit surprised, and then the blond girl in the lead started talking to him, while the other two stood beside them with anxious and nervous expressions.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that although Capek is very enthusiastic, the expression of the blond girl opposite is not very good-looking, and even a little depressed. Coupled with the nervous look of the two girls next to him, no matter how you look at it It's like being forced to strike up a conversation...huh?
At this moment, Duanmu Huai saw the dazzling golden eyes of another girl beside him, and was taken aback for a moment.
Isn’t this the girl who fell into the river that day? I didn’t expect to meet here again.
Duanmuhuai was somewhat surprised and curious about this, and didn't take it too seriously, but what he didn't expect was that the girl seemed to be aware of his gaze, looking towards this side, when she saw Duanmuhuai , obviously showing a surprised expression.
"???"
what happened? Can she see me?
Seeing the girl's expression, Duanmu Huai was stunned for a moment, joking, he is now using the Raven Guard's hidden skills to avoid it, logically speaking, not to mention ordinary people, it is also difficult for extraordinary people to see him , but his hidden skills are completely useless to that girl?
Wait, is this the power of the golden pupil?
so scary?
Duanmuhuai didn't really understand the power of the golden pupil. Even if he was a player, he mainly went for [Illusion Immunity] and [Magic Resistance +80%]. As for the vagueness of [Eye of Truth] You can't see the characteristics of Mingtang at all, unless someone uses it, you can't explain it at all.
But now it looks... This golden pupil is really amazing!
I can be regarded as hiding in the subspace, and can be seen by the other party at a glance?
Although Duanmuhuai wanted to say if it was a coincidence, the girl was staring at him obviously, and he had no choice but to bite the bullet and nodded at the latter, who also gave him a slight salute. Fortunately, the class bell rang at this time, and the girl was hurriedly dragged to the classroom by her companions, otherwise Duanmuhuai really didn't know how to explain it.
It's one thing to peek, it's another to be caught peeking.
Fortunately, he just stood in the shadows and didn't do any weird actions—well, it's like in a certain cartoon, the protagonist can act as time stops as he likes, so relying on himself being able to stop time, Lifting girls' skirts all over the classroom, and then being seen by another person who can also move in time stop...
That's simply social death.
Fortunately, Duanmuhuai didn't rely on his own invisibility, so he really followed the girl into the dressing room, or wandered around the street wearing nothing, otherwise, if he was seen by the other party, he would have a hundred mouths to explain clearly .
Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai also shivered.
It was so dangerous that I almost capsized in the gutter.
Now he doesn't dare to wander around in the school dormitory anymore. It's fine if no one can see him before, but now that someone can see him, he doesn't dare to wander around anymore. If the car overturns, it's over.
slipped away.
Duanmu Huai didn't dare to go out for a stroll because he was accidentally seen through. Instead, he returned to the apartment and called Arkham City. However, what made him depressed was that the message from the maid The news is still not good. According to the maid, quite a few people came to the shop below to buy some town houses or exorcism items, but almost no one wanted to entrust Duanmuhuai...
Even a few days ago, a professor came and bought several pieces of exorcism accessories, saying that they were used when going out for archaeology...
Damn, the University of Michigan is really capable of killing people!
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai also gritted his teeth angrily. He had forgotten the death-defying nature of the group of people in the University of Michigan. When encountering any trouble, this group of people would not go to any detectives or policemen, basically they would do it by themselves. In the past, this group of people could do it by themselves without weapons, but now that they bought exorcism accessories from Duanmuhuai's shop, they naturally had to do it by themselves again!
Although as long as the customer uses the holy relic of the Inquisition Chamber, he becomes a believer in the Inquisition Chamber, but this still makes Duanmuhuai very unhappy.
You are stealing my business!
But after thinking about it, forget it, the group of people at the University of Michigan can handle it, and they are probably not particularly strong guys. When they encounter something they can't handle, they can come to themselves.
Late at night, Duanmu Huai also left the apartment with Lorena, and continued to walk around aimlessly, trying to find the legendary murderer.
The foggy city in the middle of the night is as deadly as ever.
On the dark road, only the gas lamps on both sides of the street shone with a dim yellow light. The street was full of fog, and even the buildings tens of meters away seemed to disappear. Duanmuhuai held a walking stick in one hand and Staring around, he walked slowly through the shadows.
Since coming to Wudu, he has done this every night.
However, today seems a little different.
Duanmu Huai could feel that the lack of people on the streets today was not normal.
Looking at the pocket watch in his hand, it was almost twelve o'clock. Indeed, generally speaking, this time is the time to go home, rest and sleep. But even if there are no ordinary pedestrians, the police will patrol here, but in the half an hour from just now, the whole street is empty, and Duanmuhuai can't even see a patrol of policemen, which makes him secretly Lifted the spirit.
As the saying goes, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Tonight, maybe I can make big news by myself!
"ah---!!"
At this moment, suddenly, a girl's shrill scream came from a distance.
Hearing this voice, Duanmuhuai was taken aback for a moment, then raised his head hastily.
found it!
The next moment, Duanmuhuai's figure flashed, and he just jumped up and ran towards the place where the screams came from!
During the gallop, Duanmu Huai felt it.
City changed.
The windows that were supposed to be lit with lights all around became pitch black. The foggy city right now is like a dark city without people, only the Big Ben at the highest point is still shining with golden light.
No, this is not Fog City, this is more like subspace.
Duanmuhuai clenched his cane tightly and rushed forward in big strides. Unfortunately, his speed was not fast, but Duanmuhuai was not helpless.
"drink!"
Accompanied by a loud shout, Duanmu Huai jumped up, jumped onto the roof, and then moved forward along the roof. Soon, his ears keenly caught the sound of panting and running. .
over there!
Duanmu Huai turned his head, quickly locked the direction, and then flew to the other side.
Then, he finally found it.
Passing through a block again, Duanmuhuai soon saw a figure running on the street, and behind that figure, followed a strange and terrifying monster. It has a huge stature, a man who looks like a corpse is bound in the steel ribs, and on both sides of the steel ribs are sharp, blade-like giant claws. Countless bright red eyes emerged from it, staring fixedly ahead.
finally found you!
Seeing this, Duanmu Huai's face sank, then he jumped up and fell heavily!
Only a loud "bang!" was heard, and he just fell from the sky, landing between that figure and the steel monster.
"Why?"
Seeing Duanmu Huai who suddenly appeared, that figure was also taken aback for a moment, stopped, and looked over in surprise.
"It's you?"
"oh?"
Hearing this voice, Duanmu Huai turned his head and saw a blond girl in a black dress looking at him in surprise, and her right eye was emitting golden light.
Is it her again?
Well, it's not surprising... Now that you have the ability of Golden Eyes, it seems normal to be involved in weird things.
“………!”
However, at the same time, the monster in front also roared. It stared at Duanmu Huai fiercely, without concealing its anger and greed at all. The two giant minions formed by sharp steel blades kept waving, as if they wanted to tear everything into pieces. At the same time, the bright red eyes located on the steel monster's body also exuded an ugly and disgusting light.
"...Golden pupil...give me...put it...!"
So that's the case, this monster is coming for the golden pupil.
"That depends on whether you have the ability!"
Hearing the words of the steel monster opposite, Duanmuhuai's face sank, and then he clenched his cane tightly, and black flames burst out from his body.
"Die, monster!"
