Chapter 3 A burglar broke into the house?

Chapter 3 A burglar broke into the house?

Starlight City, Chaojiang Hospital.

Single ward No. 302, bathroom.

Ji Xiu looked at his unfamiliar self in the mirror with mixed emotions.

In the mirror, he was wearing a white hospital gown. He was about 1.78 meters tall, with short hair, healthy bronze skin, a tear mole under his left eye, and tiredness between his brows.

Just half a month ago, his identity was "Li Tan", a two-star killer of the Black Hole Organization.

Before his execution, he went through various tortures every day. The law enforcement department tried to obtain information about the Black Hole Killer organization from him through torture.

However, he knew nothing about the condition of the original owner of the body and had no way of answering. He could only grit his teeth and endure the physical torture until he was freed three days ago.

He thought this bizarre time-travel journey would come to an end, but he didn't expect something even more outrageous to happen.

After he was shot, his soul took over the body of the law enforcer who executed him.

A series of bizarre encounters made Ji Xiu realize that no matter who killed him, his soul would be transferred to the other person.

Now his name is Tong Wan. He is 32 years old. He is a member of the Starlight City Law Enforcement Department and the execution team. He is equivalent to the execution bailiff before time travel. His job is to execute death row prisoners.

But he still has no memory of inheriting the new body and cannot handle the interpersonal relationships with the original owner of the body.

Fortunately, he did not need to give any explanation. The sudden coma on the execution ground and the "amnesia" after waking up were considered to be traumatic memory loss after being stimulated. The superiors gave him a month's leave and arranged for him to Psychiatric treatment at Chaojiang Hospital.

Many people came to visit him these two days.

Through communication, I got to know something about Tong Wan's family situation.

Tong Wan's parents are still alive, and he has a younger brother who is still studying. He is single and has no partner.

This is not the point.

These days, he checks online information on his mobile phone and finds that the world is far more complicated than he imagined.

The place he was in was called Yu Jing Country, which was a theocratic country. The highest power was controlled by the Yu Jing Church. This included the law enforcement department where Tong Wan worked, which was also directly managed by the Yu Jing Church.

According to information on the Internet, the establishment of Yu Jingguo can be traced back to a small coastal fishing village 500 years ago.

At that time, the fishing villages made a living by fishing. When going to sea, they were most afraid of stormy weather or attacks by sea monsters, which would lead to shipwreck and death. Therefore, they would hold a sea festival before going to sea to pray for the blessing of the god "Yu Jing". This is how the Yu Jing Church came to be. Born from conception, the faith has been passed down to this day.

It can be said that this country has both modern technology and backward systems.

This all stems from the fact that Yu Jingguo's technological development was based on the exploration of prehistoric civilization, including mobile phones, computers, and other technological products used by modern people.

At the same time, there are a lot of people with super powers in this world.

They have special abilities to control nature or develop their bodies to the extreme, and are called saints or cursers.

The emergence of two different titles stems from the two attitudes of the Yujing Church towards people with super powers.

The early superpowers were all born in the Yujing Church and were considered to be human beings blessed by gods. They were called oracles or saints.

Since more than 100 years ago, people with super powers have appeared one after another among the people, and today there are more and more people.

No one knows why this phenomenon occurs.

It is precisely because of the emergence of a large number of forces beyond common sense among the people that it has seriously affected the Yujing Church's management of the country.

Hence the term "cursor" appeared.

In order to continue its power, the Church of Yujing adopts repressive measures against cursers and attempts to resolve these unstable factors through violence. The nominal explanation given is that this group of superpowers have stolen the power of the gods and are humans cursed by the gods. It will bring disaster to the country.

As the number of cursers increased, the Yu Jing Church's suppression gradually became ineffective.

In addition to Starlight City, where the headquarters is located, the current Yujing Church has far less control over the other four cities than before.

The Black Hole Killer Organization was born under the chaotic social order. In addition to ordinary people, it also gathered a large number of curse killers.

Mutual infiltration, assassinations, public opinion offensives... are staged in various cities every day.

In addition to this part of the information, Ji Xiu also looked up the sacrificial pictures he saw during his first time travel on the Internet. Unfortunately, he did not find any relevant information.

This made Ji Xiu feel very distressed.

The only way he could think of to return to Earth was to restart the sacrifice map.

What to do next, Ji Xiu's idea is to first collect information related to Han Yun.

Understand what Han Yun went through and why he sacrificed himself through a sacrificial ceremony.

After walking out of the bathroom and sitting on the hospital bed, Ji Xiu picked up the mobile phone placed on the bedside table, woke up the screen and began to check the work group information.

Although he serves in the Law Enforcement Department, his job is in the execution team and is not connected with the investigation team.

Therefore, it is impossible to obtain any information about Han Yun, and the information can only be obtained indirectly through questioning.

After asking the leader of the second execution team where he belonged, the latest news he received was that due to lack of clues, the investigation into why Han Yun was killed has ended, and Han Yun's funeral will be held in a week.

Ji Xiu decided to attend Han Yun's funeral and learn more information by contacting people around Han Yun.

……

A week later.

Terminus Cemetery.

It has been raining for several days, and puddles have accumulated in many places on the ground. Ji Xiu, who applied for discharge in advance, was wearing a black uniform and holding an umbrella. Together with Han Yun's colleagues and friends who came to express their condolences, they stood in front of the coffin and listened. The clergy of Yujing Church read Han Yun's life story to learn more about Han Yun.

Although Han Yun is an orphan, he has a good relationship with his colleagues and friends.

Dozens of people came to express their condolences.

"It's a pity Xiaoyun. The newly appointed dean originally planned to let him take over the position after Lao Huang retires and be the supervisor of our group. He didn't expect to encounter the killer of the Black Hole Organization."

"It's strange. Han Yun has never offended anyone, so why was he assassinated."

"Also, Han Yun died on a strange pattern. His wrists were cut open by himself before he died. It looked like he had sacrificed himself." "I also feel something is wrong. He was still asking questions a few days ago. I want to buy a house of my own near the housing estate near my research institute. Everything seems to be normal, but why did this happen all of a sudden."

"I just remembered one thing. Han Yun seemed to have participated in a confidential mission to investigate prehistoric ruins last month. I don't know the specific details. Did he discover some secret during this mission and was killed?"

……

Listening to the discussions around him, Ji Xiu caught an important piece of intelligence information.

A month ago, there was a confidential mission to study prehistoric ruins.

This may be a breakthrough.

But the problem now is that his identity does not allow him to access Han Yun's work unit, let alone get relevant information about this confidential mission.

At this moment, a black car drove up from a distance with the logo of the Department of Law Enforcement printed on its body and stopped behind the memorial crowd.

Ji Xiu turned around and saw that the car door opened and a beautiful woman in luxurious clothes walked out of the car. Her makeup was light and elegant, her lips were smeared with light lipstick, she had long curly hair, and a pair of slender legs wearing blue shoes. High heel.

Everyone consciously gave way.

The beautiful woman held a white bouquet in her hand, and followed the burly bodyguard holding an umbrella through the crowd to Han Yun's coffin, and placed the white bouquet on top of the flower pile.

After turning around and scanning the crowd, the beautiful woman returned to the car under the escort of her bodyguards. The car started and left.

Ji Xiu looked at the car going away and frowned slightly.

Just now, when his eyes were focused on the beautiful woman, he noticed a red halo floating above her head.

Ji Xiu silently observed the people around him, but found that no one else's eyes fell on the eye-catching red halo above the beautiful woman's head.

Although his understanding of this world is limited, Ji Xiu has been in contact with many people recently. This is the first time he has seen this phenomenon. Looking at the reactions of the people around him, it seems that they did not notice the red halo floating above the woman's head.

"Am I the only one who can see it?"

Just when Ji Xiu was wondering about the woman's identity, he heard the whispers of the people around him.

"This seems to be the wife of the law enforcement minister, right?"

"I felt familiar just now. When you said that, it seemed like he was really him. When did Han Yun know this big shot?"

……

Ji Xiu was thoughtful as he listened to the conversation in his ears.

Judging from the descriptions of people around Han Yun, Han Yun is usually very low-key and has never said that he knows any big shots.

But since he came to express his condolences, it proved that Han Yun had been in contact with the wife of the law enforcement minister and had a close relationship.

After the funeral, Ji Xiu pieced together the information he collected on his way back.

But the information was fragmented and it was impossible to piece together useful intelligence.

The owner of the new body, Tong Wan, rents an 80-square-meter apartment in the East District of Starlight City, five kilometers away from the Law Enforcement Department.

After taking a taxi home, Ji Xiu took out the ingredients from the refrigerator and started working on dinner.

Although I am confused about my situation and a little confused about the future, I still have to eat and live my life.

After dinner, he received a call from Tong Wan's parents, asking about his situation and wanting to come and take care of his daily life.

Ji Xiu had to say that he was fine, but his memory had not yet been restored and he could take care of himself.

Before hanging up the phone, Tong Wan's parents said that there was powerful tick poison on the shoe cabinet. Remember to unpack it and put it in the cabinet, in the corner, or near the refrigerator.

The tick rat mentioned on the phone is a species unique to this world.

It looks a bit like a mouse. It reproduces quickly and has tenacious vitality. It is difficult to kill with ordinary poisons.

Apparently Tong Wan had entrusted his parents to buy tick and rat poison.

After hanging up the phone, Ji Xiu put on disposable gloves and placed the powerful tick and rat poison in accordance with the requirements of Tong Wan's parents. Then he went to the study room, turned on the computer and started looking up information about the wife of the law enforcement minister.

Internet information shows that the law enforcement minister’s wife is named Zhong Yuanying. She graduated from Yujing Law Enforcement College. She was a classmate of the current law enforcement minister and also worked in the law enforcement department of Starlight City.

As for why Han Yun's friends know her, it is not difficult to understand.

She is very famous on the Internet. She has solved several major cases in Starlight City. Later, for unknown reasons, she voluntarily quit her job and chose to become a full-time housewife.

Judging from Zhong Yuanying's personal information, her life line does not have any intersection with Han Yun.

Ji Xiu didn't understand why and felt a little tired, he turned off his computer and returned to the bedroom.

Night fell outside the window, and Ji Xiu soon fell asleep while lying on the bed.

I don't know how long it took, but in a daze, Ji Xiu heard some movement outside the door, which seemed to be the "click" sound of the door lock being opened.

Someone has come in!
  I just had a phone call with Tong Wan's parents before going to bed. The people who arrived were definitely not Tong Wan's parents, let alone colleagues and friends. They would definitely contact him in advance when they came to visit.

Thinking of this, Ji Xiu suddenly became nervous.

Looking at the bedroom door, Ji Xiu's breathing slowed down. Through the dim light of the adjacent bathroom, he saw the door handle pressed down, the door was slowly pushed open, and a figure emerged from the darkness.

Realizing that he might have encountered a thief stealing his home, he immediately chose to pretend to be asleep.

It was time to steal, it was time to take. He didn't want to change his body again because he was killed, and the target was still a thief.

The most important thing is that Tong Wan's work will help him to find intelligence clues about the sacrifice formation.

As the black shadow approached, Ji Xiu decisively closed his eyes and listened to the thief's next move.

To his surprise, the thief seemed to leave, and there was no sound from around him.

Just when Ji Xiu wanted to squint his eyes to observe the thief's movements, moist breath mixed with the faint smell of tobacco hit his left cheek, and a hoarse man's voice sounded in his ears:

"Stop pretending, I know you're awake."
