NOVEL NEXT Chapter 86: Missionary "Butcher"
Chapter 86 Missionary “Butcher”
Something happened at home!
Five simple words, but Qi Sui's heart was shocked. He didn't care whether the cleaning aunt could complete the work with high quality. After settling the salary in advance, he rushed out of the manor.
“Mom, what happened?”
Qi Sui took three steps at a time and rushed up to the sixth floor. The security door was ajar, so he walked straight in.
At this time, there were several crying middle-aged women sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Mother Zhang Fen was also crying, hugging and crying together with one of the women.
Father Qi Hewei stood there and could only whisper relief. After seeing Qi Sui come in, he seemed to have seen a savior and hurriedly pulled Qi Sui over.
"Xiao Sui, this is your aunt. Do you remember that when you were a child in the village, your aunt took you under your wing for a while?"
“Dad, what happened?” Qi Sui asked in a low voice.
After seeing that his parents were fine, his worried heart finally relaxed.
As for the impression of my aunt, I have some but it is very vague.
Their family lived in the village for a while when Qi Sui was very young. Later, when Qi Sui was in primary school, the family moved to Qinhai City.
And my aunt and her family have always lived in the village.
Because the old man at home passed away early, the relationship between the two families gradually weakened, and they had no contact for a long time. Unexpectedly, today they suddenly came to visit.
"Sister Fang, you must help me. The man in my family died early, and the orphans and widowed mothers struggled to make a living. It was not easy for them to raise their children. You said that if he had any shortcomings, I wouldn't be able to survive!" Aunt Qisui! His face was full of tears and he was wailing miserably.
Zhang Fen kept patting the woman's trembling body and comforted her with choked sobs: "Sister, our family doesn't speak the same language. As long as we can help, I will definitely help. I also watched Yi Ming's child grow up." , we can’t just watch something happen to them!”
Gradually, Qi Sui finally got a general idea from the conversation between the two.
My aunt's son, my cousin, suddenly disappeared from the village a few days ago.
Also disappearing together were several other young adults in the village.
Afterwards, everyone went to the police station to report the crime. The police simply made some notes and asked them to go home and wait for news. However, the solemn and tired expressions of the police made everyone feel strongly uneasy.
With desperation, Qi Sui's aunt thought of her relatives far away in Qinhai City, so she led everyone over and the scene that started today happened.
“Xiao Sui, aunt kneels down to you. Aunt has no ability, but she only knows you as a big shot. You must help find out the news about your cousin.”
The woman cried and fell in front of Qi Sui.
Qi Sui was startled by her actions. He quickly helped her up and said with a wry smile: "Aunt, you are really embarrassing me. I am a high school graduate and I am not a big shot."
"But I will help everyone pay attention to my cousin's affairs."
"Then Auntie, I'd like to thank you first. This is some money that Auntie and you aunties have collected together, so you won't let your work go in vain." The woman took out a thick stack of coins wrapped in a cloth from her arms. A rough estimate is tens of thousands of dollars.
Tens of thousands of yuan is already considered a huge sum of money for a rural family.
"No, aunt, please don't. You can take the money back. I will definitely help my cousin with their affairs. But to be honest, I am not a big shot. I just know a few uncles from the National Security Bureau. As for whether I can I can't guarantee the result." Qi Sui quickly declined.
After barely stabilizing the emotions of several women, he said directly: "Aunt, do you have anything that my cousin used before? You can give me one, maybe it will come in handy."
“Can you use a mobile phone? This is the mobile phone your cousin has been using.”
The woman took out an old mobile phone from her pocket and handed it over.
Qi Sui sniffed it on the tip of his nose, nodded and said: "Auntie, that's okay, but during this period, you can stay at our house first. Don't be too anxious about your cousin's affairs. He might just go out with his girlfriend... "
He himself didn’t have much confidence to say the next words.
At this time, her mother Zhang Fen secretly tugged on Qisui's clothes, took him to the relatively soundproof kitchen, and lowered her voice: "Xiao Sui, tell me, have you heard anything recently? Is the matter with your cousin serious? "
“Mom, it must be quite serious. You may not know that the entire Yun’an Province has recently entered a level three state of martial law.”
Qi Sui had a serious expression and also lowered his voice: "Because the forces active behind this time may be related to a religious cult, I heard news that in the past half month, more than 1,000 people have disappeared in our province!"
“It’s just because most of the missing people are concentrated in remote villages and towns that it doesn’t cause much commotion in society.”
Zhang Fen took a breath and said nervously: "It's true that your aunt wants to push her children into the fire pit. Don't worry about it. Mom, find a reason to send them away!"
"Mom, aunt may not know the specific reason, but the missing person is my cousin after all. I will try my best to help find Uncle He and ask. I won't act carelessly." Qi Sui smiled helplessly.
Even if he wanted to help, he could not even be considered a dish in front of a divine sect with his strength, which was not even that of a martial artist.
He still has this bit of self-awareness.
After a brief exchange, the mother returned to the living room to comfort the aunts. In the end, only the aunts stayed at home temporarily, and the other women from the same village were sent back.
Qi Sui returned to the bedroom and asked He Jing'an for detailed information on the recent activities of the Flesh Cult.
In He Jing'an's words, the rat hiding under the gutter has jumped onto the table again. It is not a bad thing to take precautions in advance.
The Cult of Flesh and Blood has clear internal hierarchies and strict hierarchies.
Standing at the top is the **** of flesh and blood, Amaemon, who is rumored to have extraordinary or extraordinary strength.
Next are the powerful oracles, the weakest of which have top master combat power.
Further down are the missionaries, who are the backbone of the religion.
Martial arts master is one of the thresholds for selection to become a missionary.
The "butcher" who was able to cause such a big stir in the entire Yun'an Province this time was an extremely senior missionary of the Divine Sect.
At the end of the information, a map of Yunan Province pops up.
It is spread across the north and south, and across the east and west.
Nearly a hundred rural towns, large and small, are marked with red dots to indicate where missing persons have occurred.
"This butcher is really cautious. He only works in remote areas and does not touch developed cities in the second tier and above." Qi Sui frowned.
Although the population density in cities is much higher than that in rural areas, rural development is lagging behind and monitoring equipment in many places is imperfect, which can minimize the risk of detection.
“It seems that what Uncle He said makes sense. The case at Longtan Guifu was probably not committed by the butcher. He just made a fuss at such a critical juncture. The perpetrator may be trying to divert attention.”
Qi Sui took a deep breath and closed the information.
There was still a doubt in his mind.
The ultimate purpose of the Flesh God Cult's actions is to sacrifice blood.
The blood sacrifice has extremely strict requirements on the venue, utensils, etc.
Even in the last era, when the Flesh Cult was at its peak, it could only support the establishment of one blood altar in each province.
The missing people spread over an entire province. What methods did the "butcher" use to transport them to the blood sacrifice site under the surveillance of the National Security Bureau?
If you knew this, maybe your unlucky cousin... might be rescued.
…
Three days passed in a row.
The Yun'an Provincial Department of National Security has still been unable to find any trace of the Flesh Cult.
Not only that, the number of missing people in various towns and villages is increasing, reaching a total of 3,000, and the entire Yun'an Province is shrouded in the shadow of fear.
Everyone is in danger, and no one knows whether the fanatic followers of the Cult of Flesh and Blood will come to their door.
“Senior Brother Qi, do you have any relatives in nearby villages and towns? Please call them to the city as soon as possible.” He Jing’an called, his voice full of tiredness.
Qi Sui had just taken a hot shower, turned the air conditioner to "18℃", lay down on the bed, and asked: "Uncle He, is the situation serious enough now?"
"Today the provincial government has just raised the martial law from Level 3 to Level 2, and the army has been stationed in every village and town, but there is still nothing we can do. People keep disappearing, and no one knows how they are transported." He Jing'an I can’t figure it out either. Logically speaking, at the second level of martial law, there will be layers of checkpoints for sea, land and air transportation.
But the more than 3,000 missing people seemed to have evaporated out of thin air, and no one has ever seen a trace of them again.
"Is there really nothing we can do? Can we just watch them perform blood sacrifices?" Qi Sui asked.
"There is always a way. If the population continues to disappear, it will definitely alarm Tianfu in the capital, and secret forces will naturally be sent there. As long as they are willing to take action, these stinky rats will be dug out even if they are hidden 100,000 meters underground. "
It can be heard that He Jing'an is extremely confident in the power of Tianfu.
After all, it is the capital of Daxia. It has the most cutting-edge technology and the most powerful warriors, and it is where the fate of suppressing a country lies.
“By the way, Uncle He, do you have any clues about the case at Longtan’s mansion?” Qi Sui asked.
“No, the murderer’s modus operandi was very sophisticated and left no traces, and the surveillance cameras in the entire mansion broke down that day. Do you think it’s strange?”
He Jing'an complained feebly: "Now we can only use the most primitive means to investigate the victim's interpersonal relationship, but I always feel that this should be a random case. With the difficulty of solving a random case... there is a high probability that it will become an unsolved case!"
Hearing this, Qi Sui felt a little heavy.
A family that was originally happy suddenly suffered a disaster, but in the end even the murderer may not be caught.
“Uncle He, what you’re saying is that this case has nothing to do with the Flesh Cult, right?”
"There is absolutely no way they are related. Only a fool like Cheng Feiteng, who is full of money and lust, would combine the two cases for investigation. In fact, the investigation by the Flesh God Cult some time ago has already revealed some clues. Now, let's talk about it. It’s too late for anything…”
He Jing'an sighed.
If the Blood Sacrifice of the Flesh God Cult is really caught out by him, then he will probably advance further in his position, and he will never have to look at Cheng Feiteng's face again.
After chatting with He Jingan for a few more words, Qi Sui hung up the phone.
They, Lao Qi, have a small family. They don’t have any very important relatives, and their relationship is weak. Except for their parents, their grandparents died early if they went up further, so they don’t have to worry too much about the threat of the Flesh Cult.
“A strong country is the strongest backing for the people. If it were the last era, the Flesh God Cult would have gone on a killing spree in Qinhai City.”
Qi Sui sighed and noticed a message popping up in the chat box.
“Qi Sui, our class is holding a teacher appreciation banquet tonight. It will be held at the Sun and Moon Hotel. Remember to come early!”
This is news from Liu Haoyun.
He clicked on the class group chat and took a look.
This teacher appreciation banquet was organized by the class monitor, and teachers from various subjects were invited. It was regarded as a formal farewell to the three years of high school.
After all, after this summer vacation, it will be almost impossible for more than 50 people in a class to get together again.
【Lin Chao】：Qi Sui, are you there?
A private chat message pops up.
Lin Chao was their class monitor for three years in high school. He was usually pretty good at what he did and was a social worker. He was warm-hearted and could get along well with many people in his class.
It’s a pity that because of Qi Sui’s rather social-phobic temperament, the relationship with him only stayed at the stage of ordinary classmates.
“Lin Chao, is something wrong?”
[Lin Chao]: That’s right. My idea for this teacher-appreciation banquet is to allow everyone to come as much as possible. Now most of the students have responded in the affirmative. Only Gu Xiyue, I sent her a message, but I haven’t been able to. Get a reply.
ded over through\|
“Okay, but I can’t guarantee that Gu Xiyue will definitely come.”
After finishing the chat, Qi Sui thought for a moment and sent a message to Gu Xiyue.
Just waited for a long time, still no reply.
“Isn’t that woman really obsessed with cultivation?”
Qi Sui was startled and quickly called. After waiting for half a minute, the call was connected, and a cold and tired voice came from the phone.
“Qi Sui, what’s the matter?”
“There’s a class party tonight, let’s go together!”
“Don’t go!”
Seeing that the call was about to be hung up, Qi Sui hurriedly said: "Isn't there someone who hasn't grasped the situation after so many days? Isn't it?"
“You’re looking for a beating!”
Hearing the mean tone on the phone, Gu Xiyue raised her eyebrows and suppressed the anger in her heart.
This guy knew that she was in a bottleneck. Could it be that he called her on purpose to annoy her?
Qi Sui immediately changed his tone and said with a smile: "Senior sister, the understanding of potential should also pay attention to the degree of relaxation and balance between work and rest. If your spirit is tense all the time, the effect of comprehending the visualization chart will become worse and worse."
"Ah…"
Gu Xiyue just wanted to say something.
But he was directly interrupted by Qi Sui: "And it's time to settle the account for those white lotus seeds I gave you before, and the batch of ore in the cave. I have brought people back, and I also need you to deal with it. "
“There is also the extraordinary thing that I promised you before. Senior sister, you have to give me confirmation. You can’t keep hanging on me, right?”
“That’s okay.”
Gu Xiyue hesitated for a moment and responded softly: "I will go tonight and finish all the things you just mentioned. You are not allowed to disturb me again after that. I must rush to get the situation ready before school starts." Come to realize it.”
“Okay, okay!”
Qi Sui couldn't help but smile. He knew that the girl was competing with him.
After hanging up the phone, Qi Sui jumped up from the bed and ran to the closet to find a set of very slim and handsome clothes.
Having already taken a shower, he stood in front of the mirror again and briefly styled his hair.
The young man in the mirror has an upright posture, tall and strong, with red lips and white teeth, and a face like a crown jewel. He has not only a good skin, but also a good frame.
“Getting more and more handsome!”
Qi Sui still values her own appearance.
He opened the door and walked out, and happened to see his aunt coming back carrying several plastic bags.
When Auntie saw him, she forced a smile and said, "Xiao Sui, Auntie just went out to buy some fruits, vegetables and pork, and will cook for you tonight."
“The price of pork in the city has increased dramatically. It’s almost 30r per pound. I remember the pork in our village is only 9r per pound. Alas, everything is expensive in big cities!”
Staying in someone else's home for a long time.
Even though they were relatives, the woman was a little embarrassed. Seeing that Zhang Fang refused to accept her money, she took the initiative to buy meat and vegetables.
“Auntie, we have all these things at home, but you are spending money on them again!”
Qi Sui enthusiastically took the things and put them in the kitchen, and then said: "Auntie, tell my mother that there is a class reunion tonight, so there is no need to leave any food!"
"Hey, Xiao Sui, it's not safe outside recently. The police are patrolling the streets. You should come back early." The woman advised in a low voice.
“It’s okay, I know it in my heart!”
Qi Sui waved his hand, turned and left.
There are surveillance eyes and checkpoints everywhere in the city, but the Flesh God Cult is not so bold to extend its hand into Qinhai City.
