Chapter 9: The urgency of the struggle

Zhao Yijiu woke up from the clinic. It was already dawn outside. The pale white sky was covered with layers of clouds, and the sun was invisible.

He only slept for three hours, from 5 a.m. to 8 a.m. This is a good sleep quality since the progress of the process. The surrounding factor infection has been resisted once, and the safety factor is good.

And for some reason, he had a premonition that something good would happen today.

This is a feeling he has never experienced before, it is so mysterious, just like when he listens to his brother saying "It is not suitable to travel today" and "It is best not to go west today" and so on. He is always curious about how this is done.

He pulled off the jacket covered by his body and touched the position of his heart. He did not feel any difference. He could only attribute it to the mysterious sixth sense.

He casually tidied his slightly raised hair, washed his face at the sink in the small clinic, put on his hairband, then packed his luggage, and prepared to set off.

He has to go and see how to do the third phase of the task today.

Speaking of this third phase task, it literally exudes malicious intentions without any concealment. The task gives him two options, one is to be infected by himself - which means that he has to take the initiative to fail when experiencing mental pollution and become a corpse reserve with chaos in his mind and ready to commit suicide.

Another option is to kill ten polluters.

Zhao Yijiu: “…”

There are uncertain numbers of deducers lurking in the city now. According to his experience, the deducers who choose to be in the city have the same task.

Almost everyone will choose the second option to fight for the quota to kill the infected.

But at the same time, are there really so many infected people who can appear in the city?

Infected people refer to dying people who have not resisted pollution, have been successfully eroded by vengeful spirit factors and have changed from an invisible state to a normal state. They are usually not numb, but are given various chaotic ideas by spiritual pollution, such as how to burn to death in a high-profile manner, and how to make more people appreciate their performance of jumping off the building...

Such a person can no longer be called an individual.

Zhao Yijiu was not embarrassed to send them home in advance. He had never killed anyone, but he was not very empathetic. Killing polluters who had been polluted would at most make them angry at the failure to realize their own perverted minds.

The only difficulty in this task is in the competition.

Because the system reminded at the beginning that tasks at each stage must be completed, and if they fail, they will face extremely terrifying punishment.

No one wants to accept unknown dangers. Once the tasks in the first two stages are completed, starting from the third stage, the deducer must race against time. When he sees a polluter, he must kill him quickly. Otherwise, when the polluter runs away, he will have to become someone else's task quota.

He silently sorted out his items and equipment. In order to prevent killing and facilitate the acquisition, he did not put it in his personality mask, but carried it with him.

At this moment, he heard the sound of a truck driving from the always quiet street. Zhao Yijiu immediately squatted down, leaving himself covered by the pillar, and only one eye was exposed to look.

I saw a truck with half a door driving smoothly on the empty street, with the driver's seat and the passenger's window open, revealing two young faces.

One of the young people was driving and the other was holding the tester and fiddling with something. When they arrived at a certain location, the person holding the tester would look up and shout at the streets that looked like they were not afraid of hiding: "This is the Base No. 51 team! All uninfected people are welcome to return to the base with us!"

After shouting, the truck rushed over the gravel on the road and left in the distance, leaving a mediocre back.

This is the second time Zhao Yijiu saw this truck in the city. The last time was seven days ago, there were two people in the driver's seat, and they also attracted uninfected people with this process. However, the last time Zhao Yijiu was still wary of the existence and purpose of the car, and this time he became much calmer.

He learned about the existence of the cleaning team from Carlos, and knew that the cleaning team at the base had at least two categories: one was to rescue survivors and the other was to clean up the vengeful spirit virus.

However, he just received news that the actors joined the cleaning team a few hours ago, and he thought that the people on the truck would become actors this time, and he used this to find other deducers, but the result was not.

Could it be that the actors join the team that searches for survivors, but the team that cleans up the virus?

Zhao Yijiu stood up from behind the cover, squinted his eyes and stared at the truck's exhaust, always feeling a little concerned.

He carries the map of the city and can be judged by the direction of the truck. The truck has already circled around the city. As long as the inspection of this area is completed, the car will drive to the low mountains in the suburbs and return to the base to report.

Zhao Yijiu told himself that since there are no actors, this is just an ordinary inspection and there is no need to pay too much attention. What he should do now is to compete with others for the progress of the mission.

Withdrew his gaze, he turned around and disappeared among the tall buildings.

...

"Are you sure it's here for the Rushu?"

Just after the sound of the truck disappeared completely, two people came out from a high-end office building in the city center, one man and one woman. The man was very thin, with a hideous leather mask imitating a ghost-faced face on his face, and the woman was small and had a bun.

The girl was walking in front, holding a string of jingling copper coins in her hand, and the boy walked behind her. His obedient behavior was completely different from the cold feeling that he exuded all over his body.

When they passed through the bustling commercial street, bypassed high-end office buildings, and finally stopped at the entrance of an alley dedicated to nearby merchants taking out garbage, the boy couldn't help but ask questions.

Zhao Ruru squatted down on the spot, sprinkled a handful of copper coins on the ground, and after observing for a while, he clapped his hands and said in a relaxed tone: "Xu Shu, I can't do anything else, it's okay to divinate and find people. Can you trust me, a professional?"

"So, people are really inside?" Xu Shu looked into the alley. Just standing at the entrance of the alley, the smell of the wind blew. "What is this infected person going to do? Will he be so angry?"
