Chapter 1634: chain

Views:

"News Evening News, confirmed by the police, the number of missing women has risen to five."

"The missing women are understood to be young and single."

"Now let's find out the details from Sergeant Teddy."

Glancing at the TV in the tea room, Amy, carrying the latest bag of the season, walked out of the company like a proud peacock.

As the youngest female executive in the company who just arrived by air, Amy has her own proud capital, not just her beautiful appearance.

Still capable!

However, it seems that she is too beautiful, and this ability is concealed instead.

At first, Emmy had an argument.

later

It's natural to get used to it.

Because, Amy found that no matter how she explained, everyone would believe what they saw with what they thought.

And under such a premise, some gossip just appeared.

From her beauty, to going out to 'earn pocket money' when she was in high school, and her parents divorced in the early years because her mother had an affair and so on.

Everything seems to want to obliterate her efforts, to prove that she is the kind of woman who relies on abnormal means to get to the top.

Now is no exception.

Amy could clearly hear the whispers of the people behind her.

But she ignored it and just said something before entering the elevator.

"I need to see details of this proposal by tomorrow morning, including but not limited to details of each competitor."

The elevator doors closed slowly.

The moment it was closed, Amy clearly heard the complaints and wailing of those people.

snort!

If you have time to gossip, you will naturally have time to work overtime.

Putting on her high shoes, Amy walked into the underground parking lot.

A brand-new red car was parked around the corner. This was her new car, a year later than the newly bought apartment, with a stylish appearance and good security.

Therefore, many people will be attracted.

Especially when Amy walked to the side of the car, the effect was doubled.

Several men who got off work at the same time looked here involuntarily.

Subtle, smiling.

Bold, look up and down.

No matter which one she was looking at, Amy glared at her.

Men are feel-good narcissists!

Don't be polite at this time!

Once you are polite, you will really get entangled!

Emmy had had enough of the gossip in the parking lot at her old company, and she didn't want to do it again at her new company.

The reserved men looked away awkwardly, got in the car and left.

The bold men shrugged and wanted to stay for a while, but they were greeted with Amy's middle finger. In the end, they had to choose to leave.

Not everyone left, though.

There was a man standing on the side of Amy's car, talking on the phone all the time, as if discussing something important.

When Amy's eyes swept over, the man gave an apologetic smile.

"Can you lend me a pen?"

the man asked.

"good."

Amy readily agreed, took out the pen and handed it over. When the man's hand was about to touch her wrist with the pen, Amy kicked it out.

The strong, sharp high-heeled shoes kicked the man's knee hard.

"ah!"

With a scream, the man hugged his knees.

Amy mercilessly rounded up the bag in her hand and smashed it on the man's face.

Why did she choose this bag

In addition to being the new season, it is also because the rivet design on this bag is pointed, not the sharp point, but rounded.

But as long as you put two bottles of water in the bag, and choose a good enough angle, it is almost like a small flail when you swing it and hit people.

Amy tried it on the can.

As a result, I am very satisfied.

The shriveled cans proved the power of this blow.

Just like the face of the man in front of him.

Not only was blood flowing, but the whole person lost the ability to resist.

But Amy didn't stop, she raised her foot again, and kicked the man's vitals accurately and ruthlessly with the heel of her shoe.

No mercy at all.

He also ignored the other party's begging for mercy.

To be soft-hearted at this time is to cause trouble for yourself.

Soon, the security guards of the building who saw all this through the surveillance came running.

The three security guards looked at the man covered in blood and looked at each other.

"Catch him and call the police!"

Amy looked at the three security guards and said directly.

"Ms. Amy, this man has done nothing wrong, has he?"

An older security guard asked hesitantly.

"Did nothing wrong?"

"A stranger pretended to make a phone call and approached me with an electric baton on his body. You tell me he didn't mean any harm?"

"Or… "

"You're with him."

"Are you responsible for the recent disappearances?"

Amy sneered.

The face of the older security guard changed.

But a young security guard beside him was not convinced.

"How do you know he belongs to a stranger?"

"Before I came here to work, I remembered everyone's faces and names. There are only more than two hundred people, so it is not difficult."

Amy said calmly.

The young security guard was taken aback.

He didn't know if what Amy said was true or not, so he subconsciously looked at the older security guard.

"Go to the police."

The older security guard said very simply.

No matter what Amy said was true or not, he needed to call the police, because he really found the electric baton in the man's pocket.

and…

This man's face is indeed very strange.

Soon, Sheriff Teddy appeared.

When he saw the man lying on the ground, the short and thin sheriff grabbed him by the hair, picked him up, and threw him into the police car.

"Miss Amy, go and take a statement with my subordinates."

After saying this bluntly, Sheriff Teddy drove the police car back to the police station.

To interrogate the prisoner, it is naturally better to go back to the interrogation room.

"Is this how he treats taxpayers?"

"I want to sue him!"

Facing the police car leaving in the dust, Amy couldn't help but said.

"Miss Amy, please forgive me."

"A lot has happened lately..."

"No amount of things can change his bad attitude just now. I want to complain to him!"

Amy's toughness made the policeman smile wryly, while the three security guards on the side became more and more silent.

Such a woman is too scary!

intolerable!

Gotta break the news to those guys in the company!

Don't mess with such a tigress!

Otherwise, life would be worse than death!

The three security guards exchanged glances quickly.

And Amy, who saw all this in her eyes, sneered again in her heart.

See, it's always like that.

A group of males ruled by hormones.

Heh, man.

The statement was recorded faster than Amy imagined. In other words, in the face of her tough attitude, unyielding, and persistent complaint, the police officers also sent her away quickly like a plague god.

"Although it was unpleasant, it was very helpful for me to enter the new company."

"Those guys, in the short term, will be much more honest."

Thinking of this, Amy's mood improved a lot.

She has long passed the age of reckless behavior. If it is not helpful for her future work, she will not spend a lot of time fighting with a man.

"Reward yourself!"

Amy couldn't help changing her direction.

She knows a very intimate bar.

Very good.

"Sure enough, it's better there, you are too deserted here."

"If I hadn't hit the boss on the head with a wine bottle, I wouldn't have been kicked out."

"rest assured."

"I won't hit you."

"You look like the kind of cold, abstinent guy."

Drunk Amy climbed onto the bar half kneeling, muttering non-stop.

Qin Ran frowned, really wanting to throw him out.

However, the chain that followed did not give Kieran a chance.

The translucent, index-finger-thick chain crawled like a snake, appeared in the restaurant, and then entrenched at the restaurant's entrance.

They piled up half a person's height, which should be the head part, and aimed at the drunk Amy first.

But, immediately, it turned to the direction of the back kitchen.

Even, the entire chain kept shaking.

It seems to have found a more delicious prey.

Qin Ran's face darkened.

Undoubtedly, this thing is changing the target.

From Emmy, to Mimosa.

If it's the former, Kieran will consider whether it's worth a shot.

Could it be the latter

Woo!

[Sharp Standard Sword] Appeared above the chain in the next moment, and slashed straight down.

Hurrah!

It was supposed to be the chains of dead things, and I was shocked.

It seems like it never occurred to anyone that someone would be able to see it in general.

But the movement of this chain is not slow, its head shakes continuously, and then the entangled body flies up round and round, enveloping Kieran.

Then, the head of the chain was pulled back.

The chains surrounding Kieran suddenly tightened.

But Qin Ran completely ignored it.

[Sharp Standard Sword] Slashed down as before.

Whether it was the tightened chains or the chains that looked like heads, they were all broken by a single sword.

The broken chain fell to the ground, and after making a metal-like sound, it began to melt, as if being burned by an invisible flame.

[Burning]!

The blade causes extra damage to the dead, whether it is tangible or intangible, it is in this category.

This strange but ordinary chain is undoubtedly an invisible thing.

Relying on the invisible body to gain an advantage, once it is cracked, it basically has to be beheaded.

However, Kieran's frown did not loosen as he watched the melting and disappearing chains.

He can see that this chain is controlled, rather than generating ideas on its own.

The kind of creature that can generate thoughts on its own is completely different from the breath of this chain, and it will not be so weak.

Of course, more importantly, the other party seems to be eyeing Mimosa.

Although the opponent's initial goal was not the mimosa.

Thinking of this, Qin Ran turned around and looked at the drunk woman who caused him trouble.

"A guy like you can't afford it in this society."

"You must have no friends?"

"Has anyone ever cried secretly at night?"

"It's okay, come and tell big sister."

"Big sister won't tell others."

The drunken Amy lost her usual calmness and clarity of purpose, she was talking nonsense to herself, and while she was talking, she smiled foolishly at Qin Ran.

The next moment, the drunk Amy wanted to stand up and walk towards Qin Ran.

But a hand grabbed her from behind.

Amy, who was struggling to stand up, crawled on the bar again.

She raised her head and looked at the person who grabbed her drunkenly.

"What a handsome little brother."

"Want to make friends with big sister?"

Looking at Mimosa standing aside, Amy smiled foolishly, and raised her hand to touch Mimosa's face.

Snapped!

Qin Ran slapped the opponent's palm away, grabbed the opponent by the nape of the neck, and was about to throw him out.

"Brother, wait."

"It's not safe at night."

Mimosa pleaded softly.

Although according to Mimosa's truest thinking, he should be thrown out immediately, without waiting, but the kindness in Mimosa's heart stopped him.

If the other party has an accident because of this, it will be difficult for Mimosa to forgive herself.

Qin Ran nodded.

He picked up the drunk woman, threw her in the corner, and left her to fend for herself.

As for how hard it is

I'm sorry, not throwing the other party out was already the biggest concession Qin Ran made after Mimosa interceded.

"Did you see that thing just now?"

Qin Ran who walked back to the bar asked in a low voice.

"Not before."

"Brother, I saw it when you chopped it down."

Mimosa answered seriously.

He knew very well that Qin Ran habitually collected information from these side details, so naturally he would not be careless.

"You didn't see it."

"The drunk woman didn't respond either."

"That is to say, this thing can only be discovered when the spirit exceeds the limit of ordinary people! In addition, it should be manipulated by people..."

Qin Ran was talking to himself, narrowing his eyes slightly.

Inferred from the existing clues, the guy manipulating this chain should be a guy whose spirit has exceeded the limit of ordinary people.

As the 'Chosen One', Kieran is well aware of the frightening power of spirit.

A silent attack is completely impossible to guard against.

Even from a certain point of view, it is pervasive.

Moreover, you never imagine what form such an attack will take.

The only good news now is that although the guy who manipulates the chain has a mental attribute beyond the limit of ordinary people, it should not be much.

Otherwise, he didn't smash that chain just now, but was strangled by that chain.

But even so, Kieran, who was habitually cautious, still walked towards a corner.

Snapped!

Under the cover of the shadow, Kieran snapped his fingers.

"At your service, my boss."

An almost transparent high-ranking evil spirit appeared beside Kieran and bowed slightly to salute.

No need to explain, through the power of the contract, the higher level evil spirit already knows everything.

"Leave it to me, boss."

"Although I am not suitable for fighting now, there is no problem at all in scouting and vigilance."

After the upper evil spirit finished speaking, it merged into the wall beside it.

What it needs is to assist its own boss and stare at the abnormalities that may appear around.

After watching the upper evil spirit disappear into the wall, Qin Ran walked slowly to the bar, picked up the phone, and dialed the number Ed Wang left before he left.

Under the premise of being extremely weak in front of him, facing an unknown enemy, Kieran didn't mind having multiple helpers.

But the receiver rang several times in a row, but no one answered.

Qin Ran put down the phone and dialed again, but the result was the same.

Judging from yesterday's conversation, Ed Wang is definitely not a person who breaks his promise.

For such a result to appear, something important must have happened.

"It's a bit of a coincidence."

Qin Ran whispered to himself.

At this time, the closed restaurant door was pushed open.
