Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin
#201 - Temporary events
Zhang Jingtian rarely saw Teacher Li with such an anxious expression. At that moment, his heart was in his throat.
He felt that whatever could make an experienced person like Teacher Li so nervous must be quite serious.
Could it be that the seal door in the Third District had also been breached?
But that didn't make sense. If it were something of that level, sending him, a student, with two other students would be suicide!
"Teacher, what exactly happened?" Ding Xiaoyu asked anxiously.
Teacher Li on the other side said softly:
"It's a cultist incident. The opponent's strength should be slightly stronger than yours. The school thinks it's a good opportunity for you to gain experience."
In the past, such matters would have been handled directly by the teachers.
However, now that everyone knows that the Scourge Legion is becoming increasingly rampant, they have begun to consciously cultivate students.
Teacher Li knew that in the new year, they would send students out for experience more often, instead of staying in school and being reclusive.
Zhang Jingtian nodded, it wasn't that serious.
However, he really hated this cultist thing, because they simply couldn't be described as human beings.
They were clearly human, but they had to stand on the side of the Scourge Legion.
And they didn't do anything good, only knew how to harm people.
Now that the situation is becoming more and more chaotic, Zhang Jingtian has no doubt that the Scourge Legion will definitely become more rampant.
Thinking of this, Zhang Jingtian felt a headache.
In the end, he called on Ding Xiaoyu and Wei Yingyue.
A day later, Zhang Jingtian and his two classmates had arrived in the Third District.
"Are you familiar with the Third District?"
Zhang Jingtian looked at Wei Yingyue and Ding Xiaoyu beside him and asked softly.
Both of them shook their heads at the same time. They had never been to the Third District, but they knew that this district was famous for its food.
So, after the three of them arrived in the Third District, the first thing they did was to check out several famous local internet celebrity restaurants.
Unsurprisingly, in such a crowded place, many people were discussing the accident.
"Have you heard? Several people have mysteriously disappeared in the past few days."
"I know, are you talking about the disappearance of several receptionists? Alas, girls really shouldn't work the night shift now, it's too dangerous! It's not good for your health, and accidents can happen!"
"You probably don't know, the murderer isn't an ordinary person, right?"
"What, you know the inside story! Tell me!"
"Hehe, I have a friend who is a card maker, and he said that the murderer this time is a cultist, which you can understand as an evil card maker."
"There's such a thing? Heavens, how come our world has suddenly become so unsafe after the incident in the Fifth District? Is the world going to end soon!"
"I don't know about that, but we must be careful, that's a card maker, it's too easy to kill us."
Zhang Jingtian clicked his tongue: "I didn't expect everyone to know what a cultist is now."
Wei Yingyue sighed, "Yeah, I only realized how much the Fifth District incident affected things when I went back this time. Many ordinary people in our area don't dare to go out anymore, and the supermarkets have been emptied. The peaceful and prosperous scenes of the past will never return."
Zhang Jingtian didn't say much at this time, because he knew that what the other party said was correct.
Once trust collapses, it will be much more difficult to rebuild it.
Zhang Jingtian deeply understood this.
"So, we should wait for that person to come at night."
Cultists like this are not so much about strength, but they are very cunning.
To catch them, you need to use your brain.
This cultist's behavior is indeed like a perverted killer in a movie, specializing in targeting women, and all of them are women who work the night shift.
After succeeding, he would hollow out the other party's entire internal organs and fill them with withered roses.
It can be said to be quite perverted.
However, the shops where the several women who had accidents worked were all in the same block, so Zhang Jingtian felt that he could let Wei Yingyue be the bait.
"Is it really useful?" Wei Yingyue wasn't afraid. After hearing about the murderer's deeds, she wanted to tear the murderer into pieces more than anyone else.
"Definitely," Zhang Jingtian nodded and said with a smile, "You have to trust me."
Wei Yingyue touched her nose and said, "Well, but is he really that stupid? Will he still take action? Doesn't he know that he's being targeted?"
The latest and most complete novels are available at Liu 9 Shu Ba! First issue!
"Have you forgotten?" Ding Xiaoyu said, "What these cultists need most is the attention of the public. They just want to be noticed! So now that they know that so many people are paying attention to their every move, they will only become more unscrupulous.
As for whether they will be caught, they don't care. Seriously, don't try to understand these lunatics with the thinking of normal people."
And applying for the front desk job was even simpler.
Because of these incidents, many 24-hour shops had night shift workers quitting.
Wei Yingyue successfully became a receptionist at a hotel.
I have to say, at first, Zhang Jingtian and Ding Xiaoyu were chatting and laughing next to her, and Wei Yingyue didn't feel anything.
But when night fell, in order to lure the other party, Zhang Jingtian and Ding Xiaoyu hid, leaving only Wei Yingyue alone here.
She suddenly felt a burst of discomfort. She could only comfort herself that she was at least a card maker, and it wouldn't be so easy to be killed.
Until three in the morning, there was no one on the streets outside.
Wei Yingyue stood alone at the front desk, yawning several times in a row.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, someone suddenly pushed the door open.
It was a very tall man, at least six feet three.
His appearance was very ordinary, the kind of appearance that is difficult to describe after you see it.
And in his hand, he was carrying a black garbage bag.
To be honest, the moment she saw this man, Wei Yingyue felt that this was the person she was waiting for.
"Does sir have a reservation?" Wei Yingyue asked innocently.
The man looked Wei Yingyue up and down, seemingly not expecting the front desk of this hotel to be so beautiful.
He then curled the corner of his mouth and said to Wei Yingyue:
"No hurry, do you have a knife here?"
Wei Yingyue frowned, and she was surprised to find that her legs couldn't move.
This, could it be the ability of the man in front of her?
But where was his Heroic Spirit? She didn't even see it.
"No, we are a hotel, we don't, sell knives."
