In North America, you call this a coroner?

Chapter 4 Blood Moon

"Stop thinking!

This is an ordinary technological parallel world! "

Brian slapped himself twice and used the pain to suppress all the random thoughts in his mind.

Just made some sandwiches.

Fill the stomach.

Brian came to the balcony carrying the boiled Chinese medicine.

It's about six o'clock in the afternoon now.

It’s September in Los Angeles, and at this time, the sky is not completely dark yet.

The street lights in the community have been turned on.

Over at the public facilities, you can see some families playing in the community with their children.

On the road, there were also tired-looking office workers who had just come off work, but they kept smiling and greeted some passing residents enthusiastically.

Everyone here looks polite, neatly dressed, and has a standard smile. They all seem to be wearing the same style of mask, but they feel a little unnatural, like ordinary people with no background, trying their best to imitate the life of the upper class. A parody of ways.

the reason is simple.

The residents here, even if they are not tenants like Brian, are not very wealthy.

Really rich people don't live here.

Brian withdrew his gaze and looked at the sky.

At this time, the sky was dim and hazy at the junction of dusk and night. The afterglow of the sunset had not completely disappeared, and the bright moon had not yet risen, so it looked slightly gloomy.

It's a very strange feeling.

This kind of gloom is not the kind of gloom that makes the sky dim, but more like the sky being shrouded in an unknown layer of fine dust, causing the light to be scattered and unable to penetrate well into the hazy gloom that falls on the ground.

If you watch it for a long time, you will feel uncomfortable.

Brian looked at the sky for a few seconds and then looked away.

He frowned and drank the Chinese medicine in his hand. He waited until the hot soup surged in his intestines and stomach, dissipating hot air, expelled through the pores, and brought out some hot sweat. Then he let out a sigh of satisfaction and turned back to the living room.

Come to the computer.

Brian opened the control software for the hidden surveillance in the living room, pulled back the progress bar, dragged it to the moment when his uncle broke into the apartment, and started analyzing it frame by frame.

The scene in front of me came to mind again.

Uncle Billy, before entering the house, walked straight towards him and was not surprised at all that he was home.

This shows that the other party has always been in control of his own movements.

This is actually something Brian has always puzzled over.

Because he was almost buried alive since he resigned, which shows that the family has extra eyes in the forensic bureau.

Even if he didn't join the so-called 'criminal experiment team', the uncle would still have the ability to arrange for others to join.

There is no shortage of him!
The so-called excuse given to him to verify the password before was not logically justified!
The key is before Brian attempts to resign.

Uncle Billy has always been very friendly to Brian, and he values ​​and cares about him very much.

But after that time, the uncle's attitude changed vaguely.

For example, after Brian's adoptive parents became seriously ill, he asked his family for help, but was directly rejected by his uncle. In the end, he only got help from a cousin with whom he had a good relationship, who lent him some money to tide him over.

I guess that time.

The uncle then thought of using money to add a layer of shackles to Brian to prevent him from running away privately.

So, what is the uncle’s purpose?
As the progress on the surveillance screen progressed, it was soon time for Uncle Billy to prepare to leave.

Brian turned the playback speed down and braced himself.

Only seen in the screen.

The uncle stood up and was about to leave, but he seemed to think of something and turned back inadvertently, suggesting that Brian watch the blood moon phenomenon that only happens once in thirty years at night.

Brian looked it over and didn't feel anything was wrong. Screen progress, continue to the next.

When Brian casually brought up the part-time job and gave a perfunctory reply.

In the picture, uncle Billy appears obviously different.

Brian held his breath and stared at the changes in his uncle: Uncle Billy seemed to be stimulated by his words. His already majestic body like a wild bear actually expanded by three points in an instant, and then The moment the opponent turned his head, he returned to normal again!
"What the hell?"

If it weren't for the clear surveillance footage, Brian almost thought he was hallucinating again.

Subconsciously, he thought of his uncle's inhuman eyes from before.

It's not an illusion!

This is not an illusion!
Based on his understanding of the human body, Brian was extremely sure that that was definitely not a change that normal humans could make!
He felt that his world view was a little messed up.

I prepared more than ten kilograms of explosives.

Can you really handle such an uncle?

In addition, the purpose of the uncle's visit this time seems not to be the so-called three-year agreement and secret at all, but to let him admire the moon? ? ?

"My head feels so swollen!"

Brian scratched his head, feeling a little itchy.

CPU performance is limited.

No feature information.

This kind of thinking made him a little embarrassed.

Brian quickly washed his face, and after calming down again, he began his analysis:
According to what the uncle said.

He allowed himself to enter the Forensic Bureau in order to allow himself to enter the 'criminal experiment team' to verify the authenticity of the secret that gave the Camo family a chance to become great again.

But analyze it frame by frame based on monitoring.

This uncle, who does not look like a normal human being, seems to be more concerned about today's blood moon phenomenon.

Precisely.

Are you more concerned about being able to admire the moon on time?

For this reason, he went to the door specially to remind and threaten himself through the three-year agreement?
Although Brian felt that his speculation was outrageous.

But remove all the impossibilities.

there is only one truth!
That is, in the uncle's subconscious, he admires the moon = the so-called secret = the right path to make the Kamo family great again.

If so, this is the truth.

New doubts emerged in Brian's mind: What secrets are hidden in this blood moon celestial phenomenon that only occurs once in thirty years?
Brian is planning to stop working part-time today.

He wants to admire the moon!

11pm.

Brian yawned and sat on the balcony. He stared at the dim sky above his head. Under the light pollution, there were only a few scattered stars dotted above his head. A silver moon floated in the sky, and there was no trace of it. color.

It's almost twelve o'clock.

He had some doubts about whether the so-called blood moon celestial phenomenon would appear today.

Before that, he had searched the Internet for records of blood moon celestial phenomena that were completely different from the blood moon in the previous life, but he did not find anything strange. On the contrary, there were many cults among the people who used the blood moon vision to promote doomsday theories. , has caused many murders and made a mess.

Between random thoughts.

In the distance came the noise and exclamations of neighbors: "The moon is turning red! God, it's so shocking!"

A layer of faint blood quickly covered the originally scattered silver dust, making the surrounding environment full of evil and oppression. It was like Satan coming to the world, or like a vision of hell, spreading across the sky and raining down strips on the world. Tentacles like iron chains.
Almost at the same time.

Brian's body, covered by the bloody moonlight, froze.

He seemed to have lost consciousness. He raised his head sluggishly and looked at the top of his head, motionless, as if he wanted to imprint the strange bloody red moon into the deepest part of his eyes.
The blood moon has really arrived!
　After I finish editing and saving the manuscript in the past two days, I will try to update it at a fixed time.

　　Good night, brothers.
