Chapter 124 The Agreement at Dusk (Seven)
The basement where the group of crazy believers gathered was in the deepest part of the room. When they pushed open an old wooden door, they came to the scene with a strong and pungent smell of blood and the smell of burnt meat. Two completely different smells mixed together, causing a spasm in their stomachs.
Ning Zhou took them down. The original staircase broke in the earthquake and battle just now. They jumped down, and blood splashed in wet their trouser legs, making them sticky and cold.
Qi Leren almost stepped on two broken fingers, and there was a beautiful wedding ring on his finger. He couldn't bear to look at it anymore, so he forced himself to look away.
"It's too dark, just light the light." Fu Yue's eyesight was not that good, so he turned on the light that was equipped with it.
Everyone turned on the lighting lamps one after another, and there was finally light in the huge basement. But not only did these lights not dispel the horror here, but instead aggravated the intoxicating chill - there were corpses everywhere, and they were scattered throughout the basement as if they were torn apart by some monster. In the depths of the basement, the altar that was originally built with stones had been destroyed in the battle and was soaked in blood.
Standing in this inhuman bloody place, Qile people no longer felt disgusted when they first saw it, and could even calmly analyze the situation here: several crazy believers launched sacrifices in this basement in advance, and the projection of monsters summoned was far less powerful than those who had seen before, and the number of victims should be more than ten.
Fu Yue assigned tasks to everyone, some dealing with dismembered corpses, and some dealing with the relics of these victims.
Qi Leren remembered the two pieces of fingers he almost stepped on just now, put on gloves and picked them up. This should be a woman's hand, and the ring was a diamond ring.
There were discarded cloth bags nearby. Qi Leren squatted on the ground and opened them. There were three lunch boxes, and there was half a cold and hard roast duck in the top one.
He suddenly became stunned and stared at them in a daze, but a woman appeared in his mind.
"What's wrong?" Ning Zhou noticed his strangeness and walked over and asked.
"Remember this?" Qi Leren asked in a low voice.
Ning Zhou looked at the cloth bag and nodded.
"It's really her? I didn't expect..." Qi Leren seemed to swallow a large piece of stone, which was heavy in her stomach.
He had met the owner of the cloth bag, and the evening before yesterday. He went home with Ning Zhou and ran into this woman on the way. He helped her pick up the lunch box, smelled the roast duck inside, and went with Ning Zhou to buy a copy.
This moment of encounter turned out to be his last face with a stranger.
"What have you found?" Fu Yue noticed the two people talking in a low voice and walked over and asked.
At this moment, Miaoli, who was dealing with the corpse, suddenly screamed. Qi Leren turned around to see Miaoli, but Fu Yue stood there, staring at the thing in his hand in horror.
Miaoli sat down in a pool of blood, looking at the woman's head in the pool of blood and cried bitterly.
"Axue!!!"
&&&
"How are you thinking?"
Si Lin's voice woke Qi Leren up and called back his thoughts immersed in memories.
In that dark and terrifying basement, Fu Yue, who was kneeling in a pool of blood, hugged his wife's head and cried loudly. This scene was imprinted in Qi Leren's mind for a long time. He never knew that people could make such crying sounds, as if they had torn apart their souls alive and were extremely sad.
Because love is so deep that one can feel pain.
Qi Leren looked at his shoes and said hesitantly: "This is a bit sudden. I don't know much about this work, so it may be difficult to be competent."
Today, Si Lin suddenly came to him and asked him if he was willing to work in the trial office for a long time. His position was the acting deputy director of the Heretic Trial Court, mainly taking over Fu Yue's work.
"You already have half of the field, so it's impossible for you to do the job of an ordinary executive. Just get started. Miaoli can introduce you to specific matters," said Si Lin.
Qi Leren thought for a while, but still couldn't nod and agreed.
"I want to think about it again," said Qi Leren.
"You can think about it again. I will take you to see the prophet later. He said he wanted to see you." Si Lin said.
After leaving Si Lin's office, Qi Leren was thinking about this question: Should he join the court?
Speaking of which, he and the trial office were very destined to get rid of parasitic killing seeds. At first, he became an undercover agent in the trial office. After the matter was completed, the trial office also fulfilled the agreement. Oh, under Ning Zhou's interference, the trial office still owed him a favor. Now because of Chen Baiqi's relationship, he was recommended to the trial office for help...
In fact, there are many benefits to joining the court. All the executives of the court have "salaries", yes, it is survival time.
The transaction time contract handled by the trial will take a certain percentage of the time, just like paying taxes. These times are rewarded to the staff of the trial.
Moreover, the training tutorials of the trial office are very complete, and the development direction can be customized according to different personal abilities. Some skill cards and props can even be rented or purchased at a low price.
On the terrace at the end of the corridor, Fu Yue stood there smoking, took out the matches but found that he had run out of them.
Qi Leren hesitated for a moment and stepped forward to light a cigarette for him.
Fu Yue said nothing and threw a cigarette as a thank you gift.
The beloved wife and the unborn child left him in such a tragic way. The man collapsed in an instant. Now standing here, he was covered in blood and looked haggard. The capable spirit of the past disappeared without a trace on him.
"I have had a long vacation with Si Lin and I won't be back for the time being." He said.
"……I am sorry for your loss."
Fu Yue took a deep breath, and the power of nicotine made him slightly relieved by Ling Chi's pain until now. The cigarette quickly turned into ashes in the wind. He threw down the cigarette butts and let it mix with the pile of cigarette butts and match sticks under his feet.
He took a deep breath and said to himself, "No one will ask me to quit smoking again."
Qi Leren's nose felt sour, and his extremely calm tone even made him sad than Fu Yue's cry at that time.
"She likes cooking. I praise her for cooking well. I love eating. When she works overtime, she brings me dinner, saying that she is afraid that I will get tired of eating. In fact, the dishes she cooks are much harder than the canteen. It is so salty that I have to cook a few bites of rice for one bite of food. If I told her earlier, maybe she wouldn't have come to deliver food to me." Fu Yue's eyes burst into tears. He rubbed his nose and suppressed the trembling in his voice with his breath. "We agreed before we got married that the two of us would quarrel for more than three days, and we must make up on the fourth day. Even if we were cold wars, she would deliver food to me every day. She wanted to have a good talk with me, but I never came home once... On the fourth day, she did not come, and she would never come again."
Fu Yue wiped his face and patted Qi Leren on the shoulder: "In this world, it's too luxurious forever. Cherish every day."
Fu Yue left, his back was lonely and depressed. In this dim sunset, he looked like a hunched old man.
On the day of the establishment of this year, he and his lover could no longer watch the same fireworks. The previous agreement could not be realized.
It was at this dusk that he wanted to walk the rest of the road alone, but he didn't know where the road was.
