Chapter 10
The sisters Lao Wang and Cui Yuxiang also stopped, folded their hands together, and said something devoutly to the statue of the Moonlight Goddess.
Lu Miao was closer to his aunt, and heard her praying in a low voice: "Please ask the Moonlight Goddess to protect her younger sister, so that there will be no accident. Otherwise, my sister really doesn't know what to do..."
Lu Miao's expression is a bit strange, sister?
The interpersonal relationship in "Ideal Town" is very simple. Aunt Cui's relatives only have such a far-reaching cousin. If this game is indeed derived from "Ideal Town", the only sister I mentioned should be Cui Yuxiang.
But as far as he saw and heard after entering the game, Cui Yuxiang was not as concerned about Wang Xiaomei as hers.
Wang Xiaomei's life and death seem to have little effect on Cui Yuxiang.
After the prayer of devout prayers, they entered the police station. After a process of verifying their identities, they were taken to the morgue.
The body bag was pulled open, and Lu Miao looked at the face exposed behind the fabric and his eyes narrowed.
Not because of fear of corpses.
Lu Miao stayed in the hospital for a long time. He was very common for birth, old age, sickness and death. He had seen several of his patients' bodies alone, so he would not be scared by such a scene.
The patients who had only been sober for a few minutes were still a little unfamiliar with the NPC who accompanied him almost all his teenage years in the game. Lu Miao watched the bodies of those people being dragged out of the ward by the nurse or disappeared directly in time he didn't know, and he was simply stunned. When facing such a Wang Xiaomei, his heart seemed to be hit hard by something.
This feeling is completely different from reading Wang Xiaomei’s diary.
He looked at the words on his diary and could clearly tell that this was a completely different game world. The person who wrote the diary was just an NPC with the same name and surname as Wang Xiaomei. When facing the corpse, he couldn't help but feel a trance.
The other three were also stunned when they saw the scene behind the zipper.
After a brief reaction, Cui Yuxiang and her aunt burst into tears, and when they softened, they pounced on the corpse, crying heart-wrenchingly: "Little sister!! My daughter——"
"Little sister! How could this happen...How could this happen!"
Even Lao Wang, who had always spoken harshly to his two children, was stunned when he saw the body, as if he had been greatly impacted. He looked at his stepdaughter in the body bag in disbelief and could not react for a long time.
[The main task progress update, looking for the truth about my sister's disappearance, mission progress: 50%]
[Congratulations on completing the main task: Go to the police station to claim the body. The mission reward has been issued, and you will get: 10 points.]
[Current points: 34, do you need to buy props?]
Lu Miao came to his senses, clicked "No", and his eyes returned to the body, and found that the zipper of the body bag was opened a little further, revealing Wang Xiaomei's neck and shoulders.
Both places were full of traces of bitten by sharp teeth, and the teeth marks of beastly teeth penetrated into the texture. The most serious injury was the neck, with bones visible in the deep wounds, and scratches were left on the bones of the cervical vertebrae, which looked particularly hideous and terrifying on the bodies that had been cleaned from the wounds.
A tragic scene of blood and blood.
Lu Miao frowned. Only then did he realize what the familiar smell he smelled from the beginning of entering the house was covered by the strong smell of disinfectant mixed with blood. It was the strange rotten smell he smelled at the old Wang family.
Was Wang Xiaomei attacked by that monster?
Lu Miao wanted to ask the police for more details, but when he looked up, he found that both Cui Yuxiang and Lao Wang had a very calm expression after crying.
Apart from the sadness of losing a loved one, they could not see any surprises or doubts about the attack on the body, as if they did not see the tragic wound on Wang Xiaomei's neck.
Lu Miao noticed a little strange.
This reminded him of the strange behavior of Lao Wang and the other two when he asked about the safety of the night market on the street.
Lu Miao had no doubt that if he asked any other questions that were different from ordinary people, the favorability of the three of them would immediately decrease.
Although the system has long said that any creature in this game may attack him, it is not a good thing for Lu Miao to casually arouse the suspicion of people around him. He moved his heart and immediately stopped asking.
Immediately afterwards, the police said something that confirmed his speculation: "Just confirm that it is your child. Since it is natural death, we will close the case directly, there is no objection, right?"
Lu Miao narrowed his eyes. Such obvious external scars can be regarded as "natural death"?
He glanced at the policeman who looked official, and there was no NPC card appearing above the other party's head, which showed that he was just an irrelevant ordinary passerby character.
There are only two possible situations.
First, the police were fooling them in order to close the case quickly, but it was impossible to tell from the expressions of Lao Wang and others.
Then there is only a second possibility - the death case of this kind of wound is indeed considered "natural death" in this copy.
Combined with Wang Xiaomei's wounds and when she was on the street, Lao Wang and the others said that it was safer at night than during the day. Lu Miao guessed that the monster he saw during the day might have existed for a long time, so long that everyone knows that there is such a creature that even classified the death it caused into the category of natural death.
But if that is the case, when he asked Cui Yuxiang in the evening if he had encountered something strange, why did Cui Yuxiang's expression become very strange?
Lu Miao looked at Cui Yuxiang crying with her face covering her face, and she had a guess in her heart, but she still needed a chance to verify it.
...
After completing the procedures, Lao Wang and the other two took Wang Xiaomei's body back, cleared the decorations in the living room, and arranged it into a mourning hall.
Neighbors nearby heard about Wang Xiaomei's death and came to comfort them. Lu Miao sat next to him and looked through the death certificate given by the police.
Even the death certificate is written as natural death. The cause of death does not even mention the teeth marks and bites on Wang Xiaomei's neck. Regardless of the cause of death, it is so inconsistent with the age of 17.
Lao Wang regained his previous irritable temper. When he greeted the guest, he caught a death certificate and saw him holding the death certificate. His eyebrows immediately stood up and snatched him: "Look, what's so good about it? No matter how long you look at it, can your sister be resurrected?! Go to the kitchen to help your mother make midnight snacks!"
Before he finished speaking, Cui Yuxiang had already walked out of the kitchen, holding a few plates of meat buns in her hand.
Seeing the two of them quarreling again, Cui Yuxiang's face changed slightly. She endured it and still couldn't hold it in. She put the plate heavily on the table and protected Lu Miao behind her: "Are you enough?! You were like this before your little sister died, and she would scold the child at any time. If you didn't scold her like this every day, she would be unable to think about it and run out during the day?!"
Her voice stopped abruptly, and her face said, "Isn't it enough for you to kill me a child?"
Lao Wang widened his eyes, as if he couldn't believe that his wife, who was usually submissive, would be so disobedient to him, especially in front of outsiders.
But for some reason, he did not defend himself.
The nose wings fluttered quickly, and Lao Wang suddenly turned his gaze away and was attracted by the hot buns on the table. Looking at the traces of oily broth on the top of the buns, his eyes gradually became straight, and he swallowed hard.
He threw down the sentence "I'm too lazy to tell you", and greedily threw himself on the plate, grabbed the meat bun and ate it in big mouthfuls.
The neighbors in the living room seemed to smell the smell, and stopped talking one by one, followed the smell, and looked at Cui Yuxiang with curious eyes that made her face unable to hold her face, so she had to smile again and go back to get more buns out.
There were more and more people in the room, and everyone fell in love with the buns made by Cui Yuxiang. Later, as soon as Cui Yuxiang brought out the plate, the meat buns on it were snatched away.
Lao Wang acted normally when facing his neighbors, deliberately restraining his overly irritable temper to make himself look gentler.
Unfortunately, he was too polite. He couldn't grab the buns to eat, and his face immediately twisted.
The strong appetite urged him to eat more buns to fill himself, but his hands were empty. The aroma of meat buns coming from beside him made him extremely irritated, and he looked at the neighbor next to him with a gloomy look.
The neighbor was holding a fresh big meat bun in his hand. Regardless of the hot temperature, he stuffed it directly into his throat, making his mouth so hot that it was so hot that it was so white smoke was coming out.
The atmosphere in the house gradually became weird, and everyone was quite polite to each other, but it was like a calm water with undercurrents hidden. No one knew when this balance would be broken.
Lao Wang's eyes became more and more gloomy when he looked at others. When he saw others eating buns, his internal organs seemed to be pulled together, and he could hardly control himself. He wanted to kill these people and steal their meat buns.
In the increasingly obvious danger, Lu Miao quietly retreated to the corner of the living room.
Seeing everyone fighting for meat bags regardless of their image and even sharing the same food, he inexplicably thought of the fish in the fish tank waiting to be fed.
It would be fine if it was a koi, but if it was a catfish...
Excessive hunger will only kill each other.
Lu Miao blinked his eyes and yawned.
Today, his exercise volume and thinking exceeded the standard. He is very sleepy now, and his upper and lower eyelids are like fighting, and he can't help but get together.
He stared at the people in the living room for a while, and his eyes slowly turned to the master bedroom.
In front of the live broadcast screen, players immediately gave excited advice: "Yes! Take this opportunity to go in and find clues!"
"Hurry up, there will be no chance after today!"
"I haven't collected the main plot but I can't get the level. I forgot to get clues in this place, but then I had to rack my brains to come back to get it... That's really tragic!"
One by one, they were even more anxious than Lu Miao who was playing games, and they wanted to go in and do this task for Lu Miao.
However, Lu Miao did not do what they wanted, and his eyes quickly turned away from the door of the master bedroom.
He turned around and went straight back to his room.
"Fuck!!" The players in front of the screen cursed on the spot, "What kind of dog do this newbie play with? I'm so angry! I won't watch it anymore!"
