Trickster Hunter

Chapter 30 Tattoo

"You...what did you say..." The girl's face turned pale and she shook her head repeatedly, "I don't understand what you mean, what...they?"

"The acting is too bad." Sun Hang walked forward, holding the gun against the girl's chin with his right hand, and used his left hand to pull up the sleeve of the girl's left arm.

There was a red tattoo at the position corresponding to the ulcer on the right arm.

Ordinary people would think that this tattoo seemed to be a mess of ink, and even mistakenly thought it was a bruise. But if you look closely, you will find that these seemingly messy patterns are actually very cleverly designed - it overlaps more than 20 characters in a skin area with a side length of less than two centimeters, but the stroke trajectory of each character is clearly discernible...

A pattern like this is definitely not something that a cheap tattoo workshop can design.

These characters are words and symbols that have never been used by any civilization in human history. They are connected and nested with each other, and seem to form a string of strange spells that can never be finished...

When Sun Hang pulled up the girl's left sleeve, she obviously wanted to resist, but at this time Sun Hang had already raised one leg and hit her lower abdomen with his knee. In pain, she immediately lost the strength to resist.

"When you were pulling the sleeve of your right arm just now, you glanced at the other arm twice with the corner of your eye. You don't think I didn't notice it?" Sun Hang moved the muzzle of the gun and hit the other's ribs hard with his elbow. The girl screamed immediately, and the whole person slid down slowly against the door frame and collapsed on the ground.

But her left arm was still held by Sun Hang, raised high above her head.

Sun Hang put the pistol back into the holster behind his waist, took out his mobile phone, aimed the camera at the tattoo, and pressed the shooting button.

Then, he entered the photo into the search engine of the investigation bureau's intranet.

After a while, a lot of files popped up on the search page.

Just as Sun Hang expected, this tattoo pattern was filed in the investigation bureau.

In a case uncovered seven years ago, a cult organization located in Jiangkou District of Tianfu City was wiped out.

This cult organization worshiped strange creatures and secretly cultivated strange creature larvae in Tianfu City. Fortunately, it was reported by citizens in time. The entire cult, including the leader, had 148 people. Except for the nine people who were shot and killed for violent resistance during the arrest operation, the remaining 139 people were all arrested.

These people should still be imprisoned in the "Special Prison for Abnormal Related Events" located in the northwest corner of Tianfu City.

The prison was built on a solitary mountain more than 200 meters high, surrounded by cliffs on all sides, and there was only one elevator for people to go up and down the mountain. In addition, there were regular military troops of the Xiazhou Federation guarding inside and outside the prison, and the possibility of jailbreak was basically zero.

Sun Hang held the girl's left arm with one hand, and stepped on her right arm, which was abnormally ulcerated. The girl's head drooped softly on her chest, obviously she had not recovered from the heavy blow just now.

Sun Hang gently slid the screen with his thumb. Below the text file, there were photos taken by the case handlers at that time.

The cult members all had tattoos exactly like this girl, and the location of the tattoo was determined by the status of the believer in the cult - the higher the status, the closer the tattoo was to the heart.

As for the "leader" who was nearly 80 years old, his tattoo was located on the left chest, just above the heart.

The strange creature larvae cultivated by this group of cultists also left video data - it was a huge meat mass with no limbs and organs to distinguish. When the investigators found it, the meat mass was soaked in the huge ornamental fish tank in the "leader's" home.

At the bottom of the fish tank, there were still some fragments of human bones.

At the end of the file, there is also a photo attached. In the photo, a large pit was dug, and the pit was full of corpses. It is roughly estimated that there are at least one or two hundred dead people.

There are also a few lines of text notes next to the photo-this large pit is located directly below the newly built gathering place of the cult. In four years, they killed nearly five hundred people to feed the young monster. The remains eaten by the monster were directly buried in the foundation and poured with concrete... In addition to the remains in the pit, a large number of human skeletons integrated with concrete were also found in the foundations of the houses of several major leaders of the cult.

In the past four years, most of the missing population cases in Tianfu City were finally attributed to this group of cultists. The leader and the main leaders were executed immediately, and the remaining believers were all sentenced to life imprisonment, without exception.

And the young monster was transported away and destroyed by the Tianfu City Weird Research Institute.

Behind this sentence, there is a line of text in a smaller font - Note: The temporary serial number of the juvenile of this strange creature is Wu-179, but because it was destroyed before it matured, the serial number was later cancelled.

"Type Wu... a fungus-like strange creature?" Sun Hang took another look at the photo. The pixel of the photo was very low. If you don't distinguish it carefully, it is easy to mistake this thing for a huge meat ball... But in fact, this "meat ball" is actually made up of countless hyphae. There are also some broken hyphae attached to the bones at the bottom of the fish tank.

Sun Hang entered the number Wu-179 strange creature in the search bar, and the result of the search was a giant fungus with extremely bright colors that grew in the dense forests of the Yunnan-Yunnan Plateau. Obviously, it is not the same thing as the fish tank of the cult leader.

"It seems that the operation back then did not eradicate this evil cult completely..." Sun Hang thought to himself, "Not only did they not catch all the people, but they didn't even kill all the monsters they raised..."

The most crucial point is that during the arrest operation that year, the sheriff and investigators checked every cult believer, and no one infected by the monster was found - it was for this reason that the big meat ball was identified as an immature monster larva.

But the girl in front of him was a real infected person.

"If this news is reported to the Investigation Bureau... they will be busy."

Sun Hang squatted down, clamped the girl's cheek with his index finger and thumb, lifted her head, and asked: "If you don't want to die, take me to find your 'fellow believers'... and the thing you are raising."

The girl looked at him and nodded weakly: "Okay..."

Sun Hang glanced at the gunshot wound on the girl's leg. He was a little surprised to find that the wound was no longer bleeding. The copper bullet had been squeezed out of the wound and fell to the ground.

He pulled out a knife and cut open the bullet hole on his jeans. He saw that the place where the bullet should have hit was now filled with new flesh and blood, leaving only a coin-sized scar.
