Chapter 223 "The End of the Hungry Ghost" Snake Scales and Green Feathers(1/2)

Jiang Qian inside the door examined Monat who suddenly arrived. His subtle expressions and reactions gradually formed a logical circuit under his insight:

The other party had something to ask for, and it was probably very urgent, otherwise he wouldn't have come here at night to invite me.

Therefore, Jiang Qian changed the way he communicated with the female militiamen and directly broke it:

"Sorry, I'm so hungry that I can't work."

He swallowed his saliva and took two steps back, sitting down against the legs of the chair, resting his wrists on his knees and raising his chin, as if "I don't have the energy to care about you".

Monat looked at Jiang Qian, who was unwilling to cooperate, with a hint of suspicion in his sharp eagle eyes, and at the same time dismissed the concern that this man was preparing to escape from prison.

Jiang Qian and Xue Yang's physical condition on the bench confirmed what he said was true.

Camille next to her said sensitively: "You eat so much every day, how can you still be hungry?!"

Her panicked tone attracted the attention of both Jiang Qian and Monat.

"What did they eat today?" Monat said coldly.

"Mihu, ham, pickles... pointed bread." Camille's eyes wandered, and her tone revealed her guilty conscience.

Jiang Qian chuckled: "How can you be convicted of stealing food in Ideal Town?"

"Nonsense! Don't accuse a good person unjustly!" Camille suddenly jumped up, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

"I didn't even say it was you."

"You~!"

At this point, anyone with a brain can guess what's going on. Besides, Kamil's city is not enough, and all emotions and thoughts are written on his face, which is impossible to hide from experienced drivers like Jiang Qian and Monat.

"stop fighting!"

Monat sternly stopped Camille's argument and gave her a sharp look.

Then he turned to the militiamen behind him and ordered: "Now go to the kitchen to apply for food, and use my share to keep them full!"

The situation was urgent and he had to seize the time to meet Jiang Qian's needs. Kamil's dereliction of duty could be dealt with later.

In Ideal Town, when supplies are extremely scarce, stealing is the second most serious sin after betrayal, even if it is just two pieces of pointed bread.

"Yes!" The militiamen took the order and ran away.

Camille swayed in despair, and then he grasped the gun handle and stood still.

But no one pays attention to her performance anymore.

Monat walked closer to the door and patiently explained to Jiang Qian: "I'm so sorry! The food is already being prepared. I'll make sure you're full."

Seeing that Monat was still on the right track, Jiang Qian took advantage of the situation and asked about the motive: "What happened? What do you need me to do?"

"readily!"

Monat praised it and began to briefly describe the abnormal infection situation currently occurring.

When he mentioned the names of the task team and the three injured people, Camille suddenly gasped and her face turned pale with shock: "It's my brother-in-law's team..."

She looked at Jiang Qian, who was expressionless, and at Monat, who was glaring at her with annoyance. Her mind was buzzing, and she was experiencing the double torment of panic and guilt.

At this time, sufficient food was brought in.

Jiang Qian called Xue Yang, brought the bread and soup to his mouth, fed him, and then began to eat on his own.

Monat watched Jiang Qian eat and drink enough, then tactfully urged:

"What can you do? As you said, those players may choose to become the opposite of humans. Will they cause an infection similar to that of crawlers to humans?"

Jiang Qian methodically swallowed the last piece of bread and answered Monat's question:

"It's possible. What you call 'infection' has a very similar concept in our world, called 'mutation', which is a deformed development method among super-species players. This situation has not yet occurred in our world.

Discover effective cures.”

"But whether the three people you mentioned were poisoned or infected by factors other than crawlers, I have to see them first before I can judge. If they are just poisoned, I am still somewhat sure of taking action."

With that said, Jiang Qian stood up, and the chain on his right hand clattered.

Monat's men had quickly untied the other end of the chain and held it tightly.

Jiang Qian's right hand was still chained, although at the moment, the chain could no longer restrain him.

At the same time, Monat's mind was still echoing with the "incurable mutation" mentioned by Jiang Qian, and the sentence "If it's just poisoning, I'm still somewhat sure of taking action."

Two sentences, a huge amount of information.

These are all things Jiang Qian has not mentioned before.

"Let's go? Aren't you in a hurry?" Jiang Qian approached the door.

He was in a relaxed and carefree state, as if the chains on his hands and the gun aimed at his back were not noticed by him.

Monat was stunned for a moment, then turned around in silence to clear the way.



Near the gate.

After leader Yin Lisabai intervened to mediate, the two sides of the dispute have ceased.

But the family members are still worried because their relatives have begun to show symptoms of high fever, and one young man who was poisoned has been foaming at the mouth.

The medical team next to them also had sad faces! They were unable to deal with this situation, and they were always worried that the three people lying on the ground would mutate at any time and kill people indiscriminately...

The militiamen maintained order among the surrounding crowds: many nearby residents had come after hearing the news and gathered around to wait for the results.

Facing the same kind of people lying in the grass about to be abandoned, everyone felt inexplicably heavy, as if they had seen their possible future endings.

Until Monat and his party and Jiang Qian appeared!

Seeing Jiang Qian, who was labeled as a "new mutant", appear here, the crowd suddenly exclaimed:

"Look! It's that guy, he's been released?!"

"Please take a look clearly. That guy's hands are handcuffed with chains. Besides, we have guns. What are we afraid of?"

"Oh my God, I'll never forget how greedy they looked!"

"To be on the safe side, it's better to stay away..."



The current attitude of the residents of Ideal Town towards Jiang Qian is: full of curiosity and fear, and fear is far greater than curiosity!

Therefore, when Jiang Qian approached the scene with Monat and his party, the surrounding residents quickly backed away.

There was a certain degree of agitation in the scene, and even Lisa Bai's skirt was stepped on several times!

"Monat!"

Leader Yin Lisabai called in a low voice, and at the same time looked at Jiang Qian with one hand cuffed in a chain with vigilance.

Jiang Qian walked straight towards the three people lying in the grass.

"Everyone get out of the way!"

Monat walked aside with a cold face, while not daring to look away from Jiang Qian for a second. He didn't even pay attention to Yin Lisabai's greetings.

Jiang Qian squatted down next to one of the injured, his eyes swept over the symptoms of his body, and settled on the arm wrapped in thick gauze.

He reached out and removed the gauze, revealing the clear bite marks inside.

Comes from snakes.

Jiang Qian stretched out his fingers to touch the festering and blackened wound.

The family members next to him were about to say something to stop him, but were frightened by Monat's glare and didn't dare to say anything.

It was poisonous and similar to the guy who killed little Allen's companions. It was the work of Black Windbreaker... Jiang Qian then turned on his spiritual vision and observed the injured person more carefully.

A miniature energy structure with a flat but distorted outline immediately appeared in front of his eyes!

"?"

Jiang Qian frowned slightly: How could humans show an energy structure shadow that only super-species players can possess?

He continued to observe this phantom, which appeared as a "mutator" in the one-state cognitive body stage.

But obviously, this injured person, who has relatives and a wife, is unlikely to be a super-species player pretending to be among them.

He must be a human aborigine and was infected by the attack by Black Windbreaker: He did not die or be eaten on the spot. Maybe it was luck, but the greater possibility is that Black Windbreaker did it deliberately for some unfathomable reason.

The purpose of informing others caused the three humans to return to the settlement in an injured state...

To be precise, he returned to the settlement as an "infected person".

Why do this?

Jiang Qian was silent, connecting the details he observed with the chain of clues he had obtained through observation and reasoning over the past few days.

Since then, a bold guess has emerged: super-species players may be able to create their own group by infecting humans just like creepers.

Just as this idea came to mind, the injured person beneath him suddenly began to twitch violently and his eyes turned white!

The poisoned and blackened skin cracked rapidly, instantly exposing the astonishing "snake scales" inside...
To be continued...
