2672 The suspect (1)
Tang Zhen stretched his body and sized up his surroundings.
It was a simple and crude room with almost no other furniture except for a bed.
There were some messy items piled on the ground, and the house was filled with a stinky smell, as if it had not been cleaned for a long time.
There was a basin on the floor, and there were water stains on the floor. The remaining dirty water had seeped away along the broken floor.
It was this thing that took Hawk’s life.
After occupying a new body, he needed a little time to adapt. Therefore, Tang Zhen’s posture was very awkward. He looked like a puppet with rusty joints.
Fortunately, it didn’t take long for his body to move freely, but the expression on his face was slightly stiff.
However, it didn’t matter. Tang Zhen didn’t need to smile apologetically to anyone in this cheap rental house.
According to the information he had read, the young man named Hawk was just an ordinary person. Because of the extreme resentment and dissatisfaction in his heart, he had formed a consciousness projection in his sleep.
Tang Zhen, who stayed in the void, directly controlled Hawk’s consciousness projection and then controlled the sleeping Hawk to drown himself.
The consciousness doppelganger penetrated the crystal wall of the plane and directly descended into the small world, then controlled Hawk’s body.
In the process of descending, Tang Zhen was always careful to avoid being discovered by the law consciousness and native cultivators.
If he could complete this step, it was equivalent to having a legal identity, and it would be much easier to do things in the future.
In the following time, he might have to deal with the detection of the native cultivators, because the fluctuations of the descent would definitely be detected.
When Tang Zhen thought of this, he immediately bent over and lowered his head to keep the basin. After which, he lay back on the bed.
He closed his eyes tightly and continued to sleep.
In the end, he had only laid down for a few dozen breaths when a special mental power swept through the house and finally stopped on Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen seemed to know nothing and was almost sleeping. The snoring in the room was like thunder.
That force was like a snake as it continuously revolved around Tang Zhen, as if it was searching for something.
From the gap in the roof, a translucent figure appeared and ” squeezed ” in.
Its eyes were as red as blood, and its mouth was full of wriggling tentacles, as if it was holding a large octopus in its mouth.
The monster simply floated in the air and stared at Tang Zhen face to face. It did not move an inch during this period of time.
The tentacle in its mouth brushed past Tang Zhen’s face. It seemed to be dripping a sticky liquid. However, when one looked carefully, there was nothing.
Tang Zhen continued to sleep. Perhaps it was because he was uncomfortable, but his body kept on wriggling.
At that moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside, followed by the angry roar of the landlord.
you damn bastards, how dare you break into my house! I’ll report this to the sheriff immediately!
As soon as he finished speaking, he let out a muffled groan, his voice filled with suppressed pain.
“The demon subduing troop is handling a case. If you want to enter The Fiend prison, I can give you a free quota!”
I don’t dare, I don’t dare. It’s my fault. My Lord, please forgive me!
The landlord, who had always been arrogant, was now trembling in fear. He only dared to bully the poor tenants, but he would never dare to provoke the members of the demon subduing troop.
The members of the demon subduing troop were qualified to kill anyone who hindered their mission, and he didn’t want to lose his life in vain.
“Idiot, who’s living in this room?”
Hawk, a worker, a poor boy!
“Yes, get lost.”
There was another sound of footsteps, and the tightly shut door was opened. Three Men in Black trench coats squeezed in.
It was unknown what material their windbreakers were made of, but the surface was covered with metal nameplates, and the nameplates were densely covered with runes.
Under the windbreaker was a tight combat suit with a gun-like weapon, a long sword, and a tool bag.
In a large number of narrow houses, three men had looks of disgust on their faces. The silver-haired man in the lead even gently covered his nose.
The monster that was floating on Tang Zhen’s body earlier flew over in a wobbly manner and stopped beside the silver-haired man.
“How is it?”
The silver-haired man in the lead asked. His dark and cold eyes looked at Tang Zhen as traces of disdain and disgust flashed past.
The monster said something, and the silver-haired man nodded. Without turning his head, he said, ” “Wake him up and confirm the next step.”
The two men behind him immediately rushed to the front of Tang Zhen’s bed when they heard this. One of the men directly lifted him from the bed and ruthlessly threw him onto the ground.
The other man raised his leg and directly kicked Tang Zhen’s body. It was as though he had a deep hatred as the corner of his mouth carried a sinister smile.
Dunn, who was sleeping, screamed in shock. His eyes widened in horror as he looked at the three men who had suddenly appeared in the room.
His thin and Haggard face was filled with surprise and unconcealable fear.
“Who are you? why are you here?”
Tang Zhen had only spoken half of his sentence when a man beside him pulled out a pistol and aimed it at his temple.
from now on, you’ll answer whatever I ask you. If you say one more word of nonsense, I’ll smash your head, you bastard!
The man holding the gun gritted his teeth and said. His eyes were filled with ridicule and ridicule as he pointed the gun barrel at Tang Zhen’s temple.
The brass barrel rotated, stirring up the skin and hair, which would cause great pain.
Tang Zhen cooperated and let out a painful groan. He had an appearance of wanting to hide but not daring to hide. He looked extremely helpless.
The man laughed happily as if he enjoyed seeing Dunn in pain and panic, but he did not continue his entertainment.
Tang Zhen tightly shut his mouth. His body was continuously trembling due to fear.
“What happened in the house before we arrived?”
The silver-haired man covered his nose with a handkerchief and asked in a cold voice.
“I didn’t do anything. I was sleeping until you came in.”
Tang Zhen’s trembling voice proved that he was extremely terrified at this moment. It was as if he was afraid that the man beside him would shoot.
There was also the humbleness of the poor in front of the upper class, because a casual word from these people could make him lose his job.
you didn’t do anything. Are you sure you didn’t remember wrongly? ”
The silver-haired man stared at Tang Zhen and spoke in a cold voice. A cold glint flashed across his eyes.
“Oh, I was thirsty, so I drank the water in the basin, but I accidentally knocked it over.”
Tang Zhen seemed to have thought of something as he hurriedly said to the silver-haired man. At the same time, he deliberately put on a fawning smile.
“I see. Then why didn’t you say so earlier?”
The silver-haired man said expressionlessly. The other man beside him raised his hand and slapped him hard.
“Pa!”
A crisp sound was heard. The corner of his mouth was cracked, and blood slowly oozed out.
“Lowly commoner!”
The man who hit him cursed. At the same time, he took out a handkerchief, wiped his gloves, and threw it on the ground.
“Hawk, right? if you find anything unusual, report to the Department of exorcism immediately.
If you know anything and try to hide it, I’ll make you wish you were dead!”
The silver-haired man walked in front of Tang Zhen. He bent over and stared at him for a moment before standing up and walking out of the door.
The other two men followed closely behind. They didn’t want to stay in such a dirty and stinky place for a moment.
After the footsteps gradually faded away, Hawk, who was sitting on the ground, slowly raised his head, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips.
Just as the three members of the demon subduing troop left, the law consciousness that enveloped them had also quietly retreated.
This was the reason why Tang Zhen had been enduring silently from the beginning. As long as he dared to fight back, he would immediately be discovered by the law consciousness, and his infiltration would completely fail.
It would be extremely difficult to sneak in again.
Fortunately, there was no danger. These three self-righteous fools did not discover any abnormalities on Tang Zhen’s body.
Never in their dreams would they have thought that they had already made a trip to the gates of hell. If it wasn’t for the monitoring of the consciousness of the law, the three of them could forget about leaving this room alive.
Even if they managed to leave the house, they would only live for a little longer because their lives had already entered the countdown.
