"What?" He hadn't heard what Lu Huaizhou said on the fifth day, but the expression on his face wasn't too surprising.He knew that he was working in an unreasonable place, and it was normal to be exposed to strange things.This is also related to his childhood experience, which made him calmer when faced with many scenes that would cause huge emotional fluctuations in ordinary people.

Lu Huaizhou didn't want to show off, but just wanted to ask.He hadn't heard of it on the fifth day, so he explained in more detail: "A monster with a very vague appearance can take the appearance of anyone, somewhat like a 'shadow', but it can also help people hide their whereabouts, so It's called 'Trace'."

After speaking, he began to rummage in the living room, and finally found an old book under the cushion of the loveseat, and handed it to the fifth day.

You don't even need to turn over the inside pages to see the year of publication, you know that this book should be old, and it has not been carefully collected.

Half of the cover was torn off, and the rest was the lower half. Fortunately, the title of the book remained intact. On the fifth day, he read out the title of the book with doubts—""Records of Demon Crimes"? "What kind of book would have such a name?

Lu Huaizhou nodded briskly, signaling for Wu Tian to turn to the inside page.

On the next page of the cover of this book, its year of publication is printed on the left.The time is not as early as the fifth day imagined, but it is only more than forty years ago.If it weren't for this proof, just looking at the poor state of this book, I would have to guess on the fifth day whether it was an antique from the late Qing Dynasty, and Lu Huaizhou was going to be the next treasure to be sent to auction.

The printing habits of 40 years ago are the same as they are now. Except for the blurred handwriting caused by the age, there is no other reading obstacle for the fifth day.

The first page was written about a monster named "Xi", saying that it frequently stole the personal belongings of humans and monsters in a certain year, which caused panic at one time, and was sentenced to 50 years not to leave the territory, not to contact humans, and Confiscate all illegal gains.

The second page is the Tianqi Mountain Demon. Because he was dissatisfied with the excessive cutting down of forests and trees by humans, he cast a spell and caused three deaths and five injuries to the loggers who entered the mountain. Several people were frightened and became insane. They were sentenced to prison and deprived of their identity as the mountain owner for 100 years. To observe the aftereffect.

On the next few pages, on the fifth day, I glanced at the title and flipped through it quickly, until I saw the name of "Trace" when I read about halfway through.

Xing had assumed the identity of a person who had left his hometown decades ago, continued to live on his behalf, and developed an intimate relationship with the person's relatives and friends.Later, when I returned to my own life, I had a conflict with it. In a fit of anger, that person gave up his life and ran away again, and lived with its identity for more than [-] years.

Because Zong is a demon and will not grow old, the people around him gradually became suspicious, which exposed his whereabouts and attracted the attention of the demon world, and he was arrested and brought to justice.

In the end, it was convicted of disturbing the normal life of human beings, and its punishment was 20 years of surveillance, and it was not allowed to leave the place where demons gather.

Compared with the previous ones, what Zing did seems not so unforgivable. The person replaced by it also gave up his own life, so that it can continue to stay in the human world as someone else, without hurting anyone. , nor stealing, not some heinous monster.

Probably because of this, Lu Huaizhou was suddenly not so eager to find Miao Ao.

"Boss, do you think you have hidden Miao Ao and want to replace her?"

On the fifth day, I thought that my speculation was the same one that all normal people would make after seeing the "deeds" of the trace, but Lu Huaizhou was very surprised when he didn't realize it, as if he had heard something very reasonable.

Lu Huaizhou chewed the nuts he found from under the coffee table, and said vaguely, "No, why do you think so?"

Day Five opened his mouth trying to explain, and after two seconds he gave up.There must be something wrong with Lu Huaizhou, his thinking is not wrong.Talking too much to people with mental problems will also get contagious, so he wisely chose to shut up.

This time Lu Huaizhou quit. He sat next to Wu Tian with a box of nuts in his hand, insisting on telling him about this strange monster.

In Lu Huaizhou's eyes, he could be regarded as a strange monster. On the fifth day, he was so excited that he quietly rested his chin on one hand, looked at Lu Huaizhou and listened to him.

"No one knows what Zong looks like, and no one knows whether it is a male or a female. Everyone says it is the same as Shadow, but both of them scoff at this statement. Zong likes humans very much, and it looks like a human. It's just wanting to live with people, and for people, it's pretty much harmless."

On the fifth day, he suddenly wanted to ask what kind of monster Ying was. He flipped through the old book in his hand, and he saw Ying's criminal record.He didn't read it right away, he still had to prick up his ears to listen to what Lu Huaizhou had to say, and he couldn't focus on it at the same time.

"When Qianzheng was arrested decades ago, the management of the demon world organized an interrogation, and my boss was fortunate enough to participate in the audition. She told me that although I don't know what happened to the trace before, it is obsessed with saving human beings. This should be It's not the first time it's done this, but it's the first time it's been caught."

On the fifth day, I discovered the puzzling part of these sentences: "What is saving mankind?"

"Similar to a psychiatrist?" Lu Huaizhou replied while thinking, "It seems inaccurate to say so, but it will indeed attract those with psychological problems, and then approach them to guide them."

"Because the person's parents left home without leaving a word, they haven't given any news to the family for many years. The parents have been living in a very depressed life. The trace is to alleviate their lovesickness."

"Really," the fifth day said briefly, "Great ideal. Boss, do you think that Miao Ao's current mental state is very unhealthy, attracted Tsing, Tsing took her away, helped her hide her whereabouts, and enlightened her by the way? "

Lu Huaizhou threw another peanut into his mouth and chewed it comfortably: "Almost."

On the fifth day, I thought about what Lu Huaizhou said. According to this, Zong is really a strange monster.

"Boss, how did you know that Miao Ao was taken away?" The fifth day carefully recalled the route they took tonight, the people they met, and the content of the conversation with them. There was no trace at all. The place.From his point of view, Miao Ao just couldn't bear the bullying from the girl in the dormitory and ran away by himself.At worst, they have been unable to get in touch. It is very likely that she has committed suicide, but there is no sign of a demon at all.

Lu Huaizhou played with useless little thoughts, and said to Fifth Day: "You go and pour me a glass of milk, and I'll tell you."

Even if Lu Huaizhou didn't make it a condition, as long as he said he wanted a glass of milk, he would go and pour him a glass on the fifth day.

It may be that Lu Huaizhou felt ashamed of always calling on his assistants, so he thought of such a reason.

On the fifth day, when he came back after pouring the milk, Lu Huaizhou was lying on his back on the sofa, with his long legs draped over the back of the chair, holding the mint green notebook belonging to the fifth day in his arm, reading it perfunctorily—he simply took the notebook fall down.

Hearing the footsteps coming back from the fifth day, Lu Huaizhou turned around half a circle, sat on the sofa with his buttocks, held the book in his left hand and did not intend to return it to the fifth day, and took a drink from the cup in his right hand.

Lu Huaizhou casually raised his arm to wipe off the milk stains on his lips, fulfilled his promise just now, and told the fifth day how he learned that Miao Ao's disappearance was related to her disappearance: "There are traces left on Zhong Jinghan's body. "

They were obviously talking about Miao Ao, so why did they talk about Zhong Jinghan?Fortunately, the fifth day is not stupid, and straightened out these seemingly inaccessible things, and figured out what Lu Huaizhou wanted to express: "You mean, you tracked Zhong Jinghan, imitated him, and tricked Miao Ao away ,right?"

Lu Huaizhou snapped his fingers habitually: "That's right."

On the fifth day, I closed my eyes and opened them reflexively, telling myself that this habit was bad and I had to change it.

Snacks and milk filled Lu Huaizhou's stomach, and he began to tell the fifth day his speculation about Miao Ao's disappearance.

He has probably been following Miao Ao for some time.Miao Aohui appeared at the door of the Strange News Club, probably because he noticed some abnormalities around him.

She doesn't have any friends, and telling her classmates about such supernatural things is not only difficult to get their enlightenment, but it can easily become another reason for her to be hated by others, so she walked out of the Strange News Club under the guidance of her heart.

They couldn't guess what happened to Miao Ao, but it was neither life-threatening nor dangerous. Otherwise, she should have rushed into the Strange News Agency for help as early as the first day, instead of coming many times without taking a step .

During this period of time, Zong ran into Miao Ao and Zhong Jinghan, and felt that this boy had an unusual meaning to Miao Ao, so he chose Zhong Jinghan as a disguise target, quietly followed behind and studied for a few days, and successfully captured him. Miao Ao abducted.

According to the habit of tracking, it will not take its target away from the fixed living area, and will not harm the target.In addition to unraveling the knot of the target, we will try our best to listen to the target's thoughts.In other words, if Miao Ao wanted to come back, she could come back anytime.

With the current situation, Miao Ao probably wants to disappear from this place where no one likes her.

All Lu Huaizhou and the others can do is to wait for the time when Miao Ao's problem is cured, and he will come back.

This was Lu Huaizhou's wishful thinking, and the fifth day was noncommittal.

Although he has been able to see all kinds of monsters since he was a child, he is not afraid of them, but he has never established a close relationship with them. He is not as good as Lu Huaizhou in understanding the world of monsters.He couldn't refute what Lu Huaizhou said, but he always felt that things might not go so smoothly.

As if to suppress the uneasiness in his heart, he read the "Records of Monster Crimes" again on the fifth day, and saw the penultimate page, which was the "shadow" mentioned by Lu Huaizhou.

Although people are used to talking about shadow and trace together, judging from this record, the temperaments of these two are totally different.

The crimes committed by Shadow are far worse.

It chooses a target like Trace, but it's not for persuasion, it's just for replacement.For this it will kill the person it chooses and replace it completely.

Because the traces were erased very cleanly, it would change its identity every once in a while, and even killed dozens of people in human society without being discovered.

After being arrested, it still doesn't know how to repent, thinking that it is just playing games.The lives of these people are so short and meaningless.Given that it was this attitude, he was sentenced to lifelong rape.

On the fifth day, I noticed that many demons will be sentenced after being caught, but these demons are full of tricks, what kind of place can they be locked up, and who can supervise them?

On the fifth day, I asked Lu Huaizhou who was looking at his phone with a pen in his mouth: "Boss, where are these monsters who have committed crimes and been imprisoned? Are there special prisons for monsters?"

Just as Lu Huaizhou was about to answer, the phone on the fifth day suddenly rang non-stop.He opened it and saw that it was the class group that exploded.

The author has something to say:

Day [-]: The boss ate a lot of nuts, so I went to get a glass of milk.

Lu Huaizhou: Add two cubes of ice for me!

Day [-]: You can't drink milk like whiskey!

Lu Huaizhou: I am healthy!I want you to manage!
