I made myself the protagonist

Chapter 97
In a dark alley.

"boom"

The young boy in the black shirt fell to the ground, and not far from him lay two crooked boys who were also covered in scars.

The pale-skinned black-haired boy was panting heavily, his fair face was bruised and purple, and there were striking scratches on his arms and sides of his cheeks.

The young man tightly held the rusty steel pipe in his hand, the sharp blade cut the skin of his palm, blood was dripping down the weapon, but as if he could not feel the pain, he stood up staggeringly, and came to the black shirt. in front of the boy.

After kicking the opponent several times, the boy raised the steel pipe and aimed at the opponent's head.

But in the next second, the weapon that was about to be swung down was suddenly grabbed by a hand.

"It's you?"

The moment he saw the face of the person coming, the boy raised his elbow and subconsciously wanted to attack the person, but the person sideways dodged it.

"Stop it, this is the real world, not space." Ling Yun squeezed Ren Yao's arm, staring at him and said in a deep voice, "Murder will be punished by law."

"If this was a space, I would have crushed them into mud long ago, saving me the trouble of doing it myself."

Ren Yao broke free from Ling Yun's shackles, and there was a hint of hostility in his eyes: "This is my private matter, you get out of here quickly. Otherwise, I will clean up with you."

As he spoke, he took out a pocket knife from his back waist.The young man's gloomy eyes fixed on himself, Ling Yun looked at the weapon in the opponent's hand, saw that he didn't make a move, but just wanted to scare himself to leave, so he had some idea in his mind.

"Who are these two people? If they were just ordinary people, you wouldn't do it, right? Could it be that they are players like us?" Ling Yun threw away the steel pipe in his hand, raised his hands and took two steps back, expressing that he was not hostile .

"What are you going to do?" Ren Yao said in a deep voice.

"It's the players... because you can't deal with them in the usual missions, you only think of killing your opponents in the real world." Ling Yun said intentionally.

Ren Yao sneered, and glanced at the three lying on the ground: "Even in the treasure hunt, the three of them join forces, they are not my opponents. I advise you to leave as soon as possible, otherwise..."

Just when Ren Yao was about to do something, the siren of a police car came from the road not far away from the alley.

Fortunately... finally caught up.

Ling Yun breathed a sigh of relief, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and said to the boy in front of him, "I'm sorry, I have already called the police before I came here, saying that there was a vicious injury happening nearby. If you don't want to be arrested now, you can Choose to escape with me. You are suspected of intentionally hurting others. Once you are caught and detained by the police, you will temporarily lose the ability to move freely. If the space issues missions during this period, you will not be able to return to the base, and you will be obliterated."

"you……"

Ren Yao knew that if he killed those three people now, he might not be able to escape the police's pursuit.After some weighing, he gritted his teeth and stuffed the knife back into his pocket.

"I actually have other purposes for looking for you this time, which is related to the treasure hunt game. It's not convenient to talk here, so follow me."

Without waiting for Ren Yao to refuse, after Ling Yun finished speaking, he led him in the opposite direction to avoid the main road.After the two turned around and walked out of the alley, they went straight to Ling Yun's house.

Although Ren Yao wanted to do something to Ling Yun along the way, but considering that there were many people outside, and the other party mentioned the treasure hunt just now.Therefore, he decided to follow up temporarily to see what the other party was planning.

After Ren Yao came back with him, he sat on the chair without saying a word, staring at him with sharp eyes all the time.That vigilant look is very much like the wild cats I picked up from the garbage dump before, full of aggression.

Seeing the blood stains on the floor that he wiped clean just before he left, Ling Yun sighed, then went back to the bedroom and found the medicine box.

When he came out of the room, a small knife with a cold light was pressed against his neck.

Ling Yun took a few steps back subconsciously, while Ren Yao gritted his teeth and approached aggressively, staring at Ling Yun with his dark eyes, and said in a low voice, "What are you going to do?"

"I'll give you the medicine." Ling Yun showed the medicine box in his hand, but felt the knife on his neck was a few inches closer.

"I'm asking you, what's the purpose?! Why do you want to hinder me?"

From the very beginning, Ren Yao felt that the young man in front of him was full of weirdness.

He seems to know himself very well, whether it is the weakness of the ability or the purpose of entering the space.

Every time what he said seemed unintentional, but he hit the key point impartially.And the other party seems to have known about his actions today.

Thinking of this, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he continued to add: "It's fine if you don't say anything. I'll kill you now, and I'll save you trouble in the future."

"Don't, I said. I do know about your past, and I have been investigating you for the past few days. As for where the news came from...Of course I bought it from Lin Yuanqi." Ling Yun thought silently, Seventh Brother , I will trouble you to carry this pot for me first.

"It turned out to be that guy." Ren Yao frowned: "What are you investigating me for?"

Recalling what he had said to Ling Yun and others in the base, Ren Yao increased his strength: "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, I can kill you first, and then I will settle the score with Lin Yuanqi."

"If I really wanted to harm you, I had so many opportunities before, I would have done it long ago. Besides, after you killed someone just now, I will cooperate with the police to catch the stolen goods and get them. You don't have to do it yourself. You are dead. I I said, I came to you today because I wanted to discuss cooperation with you."

Seeing the blood dripping from the young man's arm staining the floor he had finally cleaned, Ling Yun became more anxious.

He pushed away the knife on his neck, went straight to the sofa and moved a small bench, pointed to it and said to Ren Yao: "You are still bleeding, don't make my sofa dirty, just sit here !"

Ren Yao looked at the weird young man who was talking to himself, and was troubled by the other party's bewildering behavior for a while, and even hesitated whether he should do it now.

Seeing that Ren Yao was staring at him, but did not respond for a long time, Ling Yun simply pulled him over and pressed him down, and said, "You better be honest. I sent a message to Shen Tinglan and Tang Yao before I went out today. Let’s come to dinner at 07:30 in the evening. Oh yes, there is surveillance at the entrance of this community. If I die, they will soon find out that you are the murderer and call the police. At that time, you will be involved in a murder case and will be wanted by the police. Operations in reality will also be affected."

After he finished speaking, Ren Yao glanced at the time on the wall, it was already six o'clock in the evening.

Ren Yao looked at the young man who took care of his wound in surprise, but he didn't expect that the other party was so meticulous in doing things, and he always left a way out for him.

Ling Yun pulled Ren Yao's coat away, looked at the hideous wound on the other's arm, and couldn't help frowning: "Be patient, the disinfection will hurt a little..."

"What on earth are you going to do? What are you cooperating with and not cooperating with? What is your purpose in opposing me again and again!" Ren Yao instinctively wanted to struggle, but he never thought that the opponent's strength was stronger than his own.

After all, this is the real world. After leaving the base, all players will return to the status of ordinary people.He is a 17-year-old boy, and he was injured again. Now he is going head-to-head, so he may not be Ling Yun's opponent.

"Eight months ago, a junior high school student named Ren Xuming unfortunately stumbled and fell off an overpass on his way home from school and died. However, according to the police investigation and evidence collection, the child's death does not seem to be that simple."

In the next second, Ling Yun's words made Ren Yao completely quiet.

While applying medicine for the other party, Ling Yun said: "Although his family is poor, Ren Xuming is a child with good character and learning. According to his classmates, Ren Xuming has a cheerful personality, and he doesn't seem to be a person who suddenly thinks about committing suicide. A suicide note was found in the pocket, but an eyewitness at the scene of the accident said that he saw four boys of similar age appearing nearby at the time when Ren Xuming fell from the bridge..."

However, when the police filed a case and came to the door again, the witnesses overturned their previous testimony, swearing that Ren Xuming committed suicide, and that he was wrong that night.

"Because the person who took the lead in bullying Xu Ming, his father is a big man here who can take both black and white. Relying on his family background, he committed crimes. How could there be more than one murder case related to him? If it weren't for this bastard, he would have died of illness half a year ago. , I will kill him with my own hands.”

Ren Yao suddenly became quiet. While talking about this, Ling Yun noticed that the other party's body was trembling slightly, and his eyes were full of anger.

"After my brother died, they bought witnesses with money and paid my father a lot of compensation. Heh, I still remember how happy that trash was when he collected the money."

Ling Yun quietly watched the young man tell about his past, and the movements of his hands unconsciously relaxed a little.

Ren Yao's family is somewhat special: his mother died early, his father was addicted to alcohol and gambling, and he didn't care about his two sons at all.

Although Ren Yao is only 17 years old this year, he dropped out of school a long time ago to work outside.And the living expenses he earned, on the one hand, have to go to his father, and the rest are all used for the education of his younger brother who is both excellent in academics.

"I promised my mother to take good care of my younger brother; Xuming said that when he is admitted to university, the two of us will move out together, work outside to depend on each other, and stay away from the blood-sucking bug at home... But what happened later?"

Ren Yao clenched his fists, and his body couldn't help shaking because of anger: "The day Xu Ming died was my birthday. When he went out in the morning, he also said that he told me to get off work early, and he would give me a surprise. But I'll see you later." By the time he got there, he was a dead body in the funeral home."

Ren Yao looked at Ling Yun, gritted his teeth, and his voice was almost squeezed out: "I only found out afterward that my brother was killed by those scumbags. And the person in charge, not long after Xu Ming's accident, I went abroad for medical treatment due to physical reasons. I couldn't swallow this breath. After investigating the background of the other three guys, I rushed into the school and stabbed them to death. I wanted to die together like this. But who knows, Afterwards, I was resurrected by Ark. The space erased everything I did before committing suicide, and the three trash I killed originally survived unharmed and became players."

Ren Yao glanced at Ling Yun who lowered his head to help him bandage, and stretched out his left hand to the fruit knife on the table again: "After being revived by the space, I investigated. The bastard who took the lead in killing Xu Ming died abroad due to the failure of the operation and the deterioration of his condition. "

"As for the other three guys who have been hiding in the space since they entered the space, they have never participated in treasure hunting games. They are afraid of meeting me in the mission. Not long ago, I bought information from Lin Yuanqi, and finally went to the base when the other party blocked them on the way. But I didn't expect that you would jump out to obstruct me at a critical moment..."

After Ren Yao finished speaking, he grabbed the fruit knife and stabbed Ling Yun.
