latent syndrome

Chapter 4 4. Mutation
The night sky in Los Angeles is covered with dusty rain. Under the pollution of building exterior glass and neon lights, the puddles on the ground reflect various muddy colors.

I don't know if it was a moment, or it was as long as eternity.

The head was in excruciating pain, and the strong puncture sensation was like an awl piercing the skull, and the severe pain went straight to Tianling.

Inside a convenience store.

Ke Lin's consciousness was blurred, and the surrounding scene seemed like a world away, and the display cabinet in front of him was piled up with a variety of spirits.

He felt something strange on his lips, stretched out his hand, and there was a warm touch on his fingers. When he lowered his head and stared, it turned out to be black and red blood.

Followed.

clap clap clap...

Blood flowed like a column, pouring all over the floor tiles.

[Today at [-]:[-], an explosion occurred in the central business district of Los Angeles. 】

[The number of casualties has been counted at 27, and the police are investigating further. 】

The voice of the cashier's mobile phone is disturbing.

Colin wiped away the nosebleed with the sleeve of his coat, and looked at the cashier in surprise.

It's so familiar, I've experienced what happened just now.

Colin was like having a nightmare, dreaming that he was being burned by the fire, and he was in great pain.

But it didn't look like a dream. What I experienced was too real, and I even remembered many details clearly.

A long-haired man in a black leather jacket was stealing, stuffing beer and snacks into his arms.

Colin just felt like hell, did he foresee the future, or something else?
After stealing the things, Di Yu stood up straight and scanned the surroundings, and saw the embarrassed Ke Lin, with blood on his sleeves and around his mouth.

"Thinking about something unhealthy, friend."

"I do that a lot too, usually I'll find a good place...you know."

Di Kuo clasped his hands, shaking them up and down in an indecent gesture, and added: "You can go to the bathroom at the back, there is still my masterpiece on the doorknob."

After saying that, Di Yu left straight away, and when he paid the bill at the counter, he only paid for a box of chewing gum.

Ke Lin was shocked, and washed away the weirdness he was experiencing. He was such a mysterious man.

In order to verify his conjecture, Ke Lin walked to the door of the convenience store.

really.

Di Yu opened the door of the orange convertible sports car, sat in the driving seat, and put down all the stolen things. Next to him was a sexy girl in a blue deep V dress.

After seeing these things, the girl worshiped Di Yu very much, her beautiful eyes were full of little stars, and she kissed him on the cheek.

"This is your share."

When Di Kuo saw Ke Lin coming out, he threw a can of beer, and Ke Lin caught it firmly.

After doing all this, Di Yu stepped on the accelerator and walked away.

Leaving Colin in a mess in the wind, I somehow became an accomplice, and out of nowhere, I was divided up. You are driving a multi-million dollar sports car, sitting next to an elegant and sexy Eastern European fashion model, and stealing beer from a convenience store. Are you out of your mind? What's wrong?
the most important is.

"Go back in time?"

Colin recalled what the one-eyed woman said, that patients with abyssalism will fall into the indescribable real world, and if they can withstand its spiritual impact, they can gain supernatural special abilities.

All that is true!
He suffered from submerged disease, and turned into a monster and ran away trying to kill Grey, but was slaughtered by the powerful Grey in turn, turned into ashes, and returned to the present moment after death.

Di Kuo’s behavior was different from before because he had made a different choice. He didn’t stop him from stealing things, and he didn’t pay him, but all the other details were exactly the same.

impossible!How could such a thing happen!
Ke Lin still couldn't believe it, thinking that there was something wrong with his brain. Since the incident happened next door to the apartment, his mental state has been very bad.

Ding.

A message came from the mobile phone, which was sent to the police officer who made the record for him, saying that there was a particularly urgent matter and he was asked to rush to the police station immediately.

The police had told him three days ago that although he was not listed as a suspect, he would try not to leave the city within a month. If there was a situation, he would be summoned immediately and he must report to the police before leaving the city, otherwise he would bear the corresponding consequences.

boom!
Colin gave the empowerment like thunder, even if he doubted it, he had to believe it at this moment.

I am a patient with submerged disease, and time travel is my special ability.

monster……

Just yourself.

He took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it in his lips with trembling fingers, lit it with a lighter, and hissed several times.

What's next?
Ignore it?

But he must not be able to hide for long. After a long time, he will definitely be found by them.

Or just run away and fly away?
If you want to withdraw a large amount of cash at the bank, you need to make an appointment in advance, but tens of thousands of dollars can be withdrawn directly. This money is only enough to live on for a year and a half. What will you do in the future?
I still have two properties in Los Angeles. Although it is a loan, I have paid 60.00% of the amount from the beginning to now. Could it be that I just burned it?
A cigarette was quickly finished by him.

The phone rang, and the caller ID was the Los Angeles Police Department, not the police officer's private number, but an official number.

Cold sweat oozes from Colin's back.

How to do?Do you want to pick it up?
The woman said that she wanted to test her controllability and asked some questions. God knows what the correct answer is, and if she answered wrongly, she would be killed.

Can I go back in time by then?Maybe there is only one chance, and if you die this time, you will die.

run away!

Colin made a decision. The crazy woman's attitude towards patients with submerged disease was obvious. She regarded people like herself as outright monsters and criminals. The conclusion had already been made, and the probability of her surviving was very small.

He didn't dare to procrastinate any longer, and immediately went to the ATM to withdraw money, and went home to dig out all the cash reserves, and then found a wild car to go out of the city.

The wild ones are cars that do not have a business license but still carry passengers for a fee.

Because of the economic depression, the fares of taxi companies have risen instead of falling, and wild ones are becoming more and more popular.

After negotiating the price with the driver, set off immediately.

……

……

Inside the Los Angeles Police Department.

"Detective Gray, his phone can't be connected." The police officer was a little puzzled, and added: "And he just withdrew 8 yuan in cash from the bank card."

Gray's unchanging poker face didn't seem to be surprised.

"It's good news that he's not out of town yet."

Gray just received the test report today. The pollution source of the female corpse came from Colin, and the preparations were still insufficient in a short period of time.

She looked at Ke Lin's background check for a while. He was 26 years old and had just resigned from a securities firm. She didn't expect him to be divorced once at such a young age.

If I were Colin, I would never run away aimlessly. The best way is to find someone to meet him, hide from the wind and find another way out, otherwise, under the overwhelming notice, he will be found by the official staff soon , or be reported by the public.

But Colin's relationships are simple, so let's try his ex-wife.

"Where does Colin's ex-wife live?"

Gray asked coldly.

"Let me check." The police officer searched the police database, "His ex-wife lives in the villa complex on Bay Avenue in Liberty City, No. 101."

Gray pondered for a while. If he were Colin, he would definitely go to the ATM first, and then go home to get important items. After all, it is unreasonable to bring a large bag of items to withdraw money.

If you are careful, you will not choose the station that is closest to your home, but considering the concept of time, if you pursue extreme speed, you may not choose it.

"I have something to do. You arrange random inspections at all the checkpoints leading to Liberty City. If you find Colin, report to me immediately. If I don't come back before 12 o'clock, please tell my colleagues and issue a warrant, Colin A murderer who killed more than twenty people."

Gray had to do this considering the danger of Colin. Only extremely powerful patients with submerged disease have the possibility of infecting others.

Colin is quite dangerous and has to be vigilant.

The police officer was stunned when he heard the words, how could this be related to a serial killer, and said, "But he can't..."

He was interrupted by Gray before he finished speaking.

"I have all authority, you just have to do as I say."

After finishing speaking, Gray left the police station and went to the parking lot.

It was a top-level motorcycle for racing, with a black linear silhouette like a beast.

Gray's oppressive tall figure made it easy for her to ride on it, and the restless sound of the engine rang through the surrounding streets.

The road with a 50-yard speed limit was turned into a championship by her.

At high speed, she was extremely skilled, dodging one car after another without even wearing a helmet.

Others can only see the bright light of the red taillights passing by quickly, and a gust of wind is blowing.

……

……

Los Angeles exit.

Colin rolled his car window and poked his head out. Why is there such a traffic jam today?It stands to reason that today is a working day, so there shouldn't be so many cars leaving the city.

Ke Lin had a premonition that something was wrong. It wasn't the problem of too many cars, but was there a car accident ahead?

Impossible, get out sooner or later, but at this time.

Then there is only one reason for the blockage, and there is a temporary inspection ahead.

"Damn."

Ke Lin stuffed a hundred yuan into the driver, and hurried out of the car door.

Gray was waiting at the checkpoint. Judging from Colin's work experience, he is a smarter person and quite alert.

So when Gray was waiting in the checkpoint, he didn't forget to pay attention to the cars behind him.

I saw a man in a brown woolen coat get out of the car, carrying a travel bag, walking slowly towards the side woods.

Gray took out the sniper rifle that had already been assembled and filled it with special ammunition.

The sniper distance exceeded 100 meters, even Gray set up a gun, and the only remaining one-eyed sight searched for Colin's vitals to ensure the accuracy of the sniper.

When Colin was about to step into the woods.

boom!
Colin's head exploded directly.

boom!
Even two shots were fired accurately, and the remaining bullet hit Colin's torso, which was directly pierced and opened a big hole, burning raging fire.

In the blue firelight, Colin let out a mournful howl.

Since ancient times, burning has been the cruelest method of death.

Gray didn't let up, and rushed over like an athlete with the pursuit of extreme speed, and made up several more shots.

Until Colin's ashes are gone, drifting with the wind until nothingness.

With a blank expression on her face, Gray took out her mobile phone and typed quickly with her fingers.

[Number S-2, has been killed. 】
