Free Web NovelThe moment she confirmed Gu Xinian's identity, countless thoughts surfaced in Lu Yibei's mind.
Although whether it was going to Half-Mountain Apartment or coming to Hua City Library to look up the hua city urban and rural construction local chronicle to find the abandoned factory in her dream, her ultimate goal was to find members of the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society.
However, according to her original plan, she hadn't intended to contact the Xunzhen Mutual Aid so early.
After all, the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society still carried the name of a cult gang.
Before she had enough information, she couldn't judge whether they were a group of clear-headed "lunatics" or a group of vicious, evil, anti-social 24K pure perverts.
But now...
The strange behavior of the girl on the bus and the librarian, the eyes secretly peeping, and Gu Xinian suddenly appearing before her, everything indicated that the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society had already set their sights on her.
This sudden situation made her feel very insecure.
Heaven knows what Gu Xinian's intentions were?
Maybe behind those rows of book shelfs, three hundred axemen were hiding, just waiting for Gu Xinian's command, and they would jump out from the dark corners and chop me into meat paste.
Even if I mastered Water Heater Explosion Technique, if three hundred people really rushed out, I probably still wouldn't be a match. Lu Yibei thought.
So, she made a bold decision.
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em!
When you can't tell if the other party is friend or foe, wouldn't actively becoming their friend eliminate the possibility of becoming an enemy?
A beautiful girl eager to join the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society, secretly investigating them, isn't that reasonable?
If she could gain their approval, not only would there be no danger, but she could ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) also obtain information about the real world from them.
At that time, depending on the situation, she could decide whether to follow them and cause trouble, or send their base coordinates to the Uncle Police and report them with a flick of her wrist.
This move, ah, this move is killing three birds with one stone! Lu Yibei thought.
"You said you want to join us?" Gu Xinian asked with a serious expression, "Why?"
Lu Yibei nodded and said seriously, "I've long heard of your deeds, and I've admired you since I was a child!"
"Our deeds?" Gu Xinian tilted his head, full of doubt.
Since the last failed attempt, the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society had not had any other actions for nearly twenty years, apart from secretly accumulating resources and developing members to wait for a new opportunity to appear.
Where did she hear about our deeds? Gu Xinian thought.
Noticing the change in Gu Xinian's expression, Lu Yibei's heart tightened slightly.
Did I say something wrong?
No way? For so many years, haven't you done anything bad at all?
Can't you be a little more self-aware, fit the description, and not force me to act?
"Exactly! Didn't the internet say it all? The Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society is a brutal and vicious cult gang, doing everything from burning, killing, looting, and human trafficking at the top, to cornering elementary school students and beating Grandmas at the bottom!"
"I've done it!" Lu Yibei said, patting her chest.
As she spoke, a fervent and excited light flickered in her eyes, as if she couldn't wait to rush onto the street and randomly kill two unsuspecting passersby with a toilet plunger.
As for how to kill them... she hadn't thought about that in detail.
And the things she mentioned were indeed circulating online, concerning the atrocities of the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society, but there was hardly any concrete evidence for any of them.
Although it felt like any bad deed for which the culprit couldn't be found could be attributed to the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society.
But this didn't affect the image of the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society, which was gradually being demonized in the public's mind.
When Lu Yibei searched for news about the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society online and looked at the comments, she sometimes even felt that they had become an outlet for some netizens to vent their negative emotions.
Gu Xinian, "..." No, Miss, please be clear, what have you done? Was it burning, killing, and looting, or beating Grandmas? Why do I feel like you're a bit dangerous?
"Miss, I think you might have misunderstood something? We might not be what you imagine!"
At least the scope I'm responsible for is like this, I can't guarantee the scope my second uncle is responsible for... he added in his heart.
In fact, every year there would be some not-so-normal people who felt that members of the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society were their kind, and then came knocking on the door wanting to join. Gu Xinian was already used to it.
"I understand, I understand!" Lu Yibei said seriously, "Don't you think this world is fake and there's another real world?"
"I actually think so too. The Doctor also said I have delusions plus split personality."
Gu Xinian, "..."
Although in the eyes of ordinary people, members of the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society are a bunch of lunatics, lunatics also come in different types!
Your kind, with professional hospital certification, is probably not the same type as us, really.
Gu Xinian thought, preparing to politely refuse Lu Yibei's request to join the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society and advise her to go back and see a doctor properly.
Just then, Lu Yibei suddenly spoke, "Actually, I also know I'm not quite normal like this. I don't have any special ideals in finding you. I just want to confirm that this world is fake, so it's normal for me to feel disgusted by it. Can you help me?"
As she spoke, although there was no expression on her face, her eyes perfectly interpreted what it meant to be lonely and helpless, hesitant and at a loss.
This should count as highlighting the main idea, right? Lu Yibei muttered inwardly.
Highlighting the main idea, plus a beautiful girl making a request, plus the unconsciously released faint Charm ability, she instantly achieved a perfect kill.
Looking at Lu Yibei's pitiful appearance, Gu Xinian was startled for a moment, and a feeling of sudden clarity arose in his heart.
I see, so that's how it is?
Because she feels that everything in this world is fake, she dislikes this world, and therefore has no psychological burden doing those terrible things.
It seems like a member that can be recruited! freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Gu Xinian thought, nodding, "Miss, I understand. I'm very happy to help you, but joining the Mutual Aid Society is not something I can decide on my own. Before that..."
"I understand, I understand!" Lu Yibei interrupted, making a throat-slitting gesture as she spoke, "You need a letter of submission, right?"
Gu Xinian, "..." What do you understand again? Can't you wait for someone to finish speaking? What the heck is a letter of submission?!
"It's not what you think, and we don't need any letter of submission," he explained with a helpless expression.
"Then what do you need me to do?" Lu Yibei interrupted.
"..." Gu Xinian was silent for a moment before saying, "There are many things you need to do, but it's not clear in a few words. I will send someone to find you later and explain it to you slowly."
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked, Miss, your name is..."
"Wang Bu Liu Xing!" Lu Yibei blurted out.
Wang Bu Liu Xing? What a unique name... Gu Xinian was startled for a moment, then smiled, "Congratulations, Miss Wang, you are now a provisional member of the Mutual Aid Society."
"It's getting late today, so I'll head back first. For subsequent matters, I will contact you when the time is right."
After speaking, Gu Xinian stood up and was about to leave.
Just then, Lu Yibei suddenly raised a hand and called out softly in a lowered voice, "Wait a moment!"
"Is there anything else?" Gu Xinian turned and asked.
"Really don't need..." Lu Yibei made the throat-slitting gesture again, "Don't need to do this?"
Why are you so fixated on that thing? Gu Xinian's mouth twitched, "No, no need..."
"Oh..." Lu Yibei nodded thoughtfully, pondered for a moment, and just as Gu Xinian was about to leave again, she called out softly once more, "Wait a moment!"
Gu Xinian, "..."
"Is there anything else?"
Lu Yibei pointed to the hua city urban and rural construction local chronicle on the table and frowned, "Are the pages inside torn out by you? Can I take a look?"
Although she had contacted members of the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society in advance, Lu Yibei was still curious about the abandoned factory in her dream.
"This... I'm afraid I can't." Gu Xinian said with a wry smile, "You'll naturally know when you become a formal member."
"Oh..." Lu Yibei nodded.
It seems that abandoned factory is an extremely important place for the Xunzhen Mutual Aid Society. Lu Yibei thought.
"Is there anything else?" Gu Xinian asked.
Knowing you talk a lot, I'll wait until you're finished before leaving, okay?
"No more," Lu Yibei shook her head expressionlessly.
"Then I'm leaving?"
"Mhm."
Immediately after, as soon as Gu Xinian turned around, he heard Lu Yibei's voice from behind.
"Wait a moment!"
Gu Xinian, "..." Can't you just say everything at once?
----
Hua City, Yun Kang Mental Hospital, Jin Jiao's temporary office.
Jin Jiao sat in front of the computer, browsing the intelligence constantly sent by informants and subordinates, intercepting or marking it from time to time, in order to obtain clues about the whereabouts of the Invasion Beast.
Just then, a rapid knocking sound rang out.
"Knock, knock, knock—!" freewebnøvel.coɱ
"Come in!"
As Jin Jiao called out softly, a Special Operations Team member with a panicked expression walked in.
"N-no good, Adult Secretary! S-something big has happened!"
"Something big has happened?" Jin Jiao was startled for a moment and looked up at the Special Operations Team member, "What happened? Don't rush, speak slowly and clearly."
"Gulp—!" The Special Operations Team member swallowed, adjusted his breathing slightly, and said, "The prisoner in B2016 is dead."
"What? Dead?!" Jin Jiao was shocked and sprang up from his seat, "Let's go, hurry over and see!"
----
A moment later, inside cell B2016.
Berses, wearing a straitjacket, lay on his side on the single bed, his back towards Jin Jiao, motionless.
Jin Jiao walked up, gently turned Berses over, and his body flopped over limply.
Just as the Special Operations Team member had said, he was dead.
Jin Jiao opened Berses' eyelids, pried open his lips to look at his tongue coating, then pulled off the upper part of his straitjacket, examined his body, and frowned.
There were no signs of poisoning, no traces of struggle before death, but there were some symptoms of excessive blood loss. Could it be... suicide?
