Chapter 111 Different Ways(1/2)
Hearing Jiang Baimian's answer, Shang Jianyao withdrew his gaze with regret.
Fortunately, he did not insist on his own actions this time... Long Yuehong quietly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this.
In fact, he also knew that Shang Jianyao was still obedient to the people and obeyed the arrangements most of the time.
At this time, Wang Fugui saw that Jiang Baimian was still staring at the decaying corpses that were either vague or fragmented, and couldn't help but raise his hand to press his nose and said:
"There will be clues in them?"
"Unsure." Jiang Baimian replied casually, "The main reason is that there is no camera now and I can't take pictures. I have to remember various details and wait for further analysis later."
At this moment, there was no time or condition for her to do an in-depth autopsy.
Jiang Baimian immediately put on gloves and joined Bai Chen to quickly check the condition of the body and the items they carried with him to see if they could find some valuable information.
Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong stared at Wang Fugui and others, and the other was on guard against attacks.
During this process, Long Yuehong smelled the disgusting stench of corpse and inexplicably felt like he had entered a ghost story by himself:
The ruins hunters were "charming" by the white wolf and led them into the city ruins at the other end of the cave, and they jumped off the building one by one and died!
This is both weird and mysterious, and terrifying.
And this is just a part of the people brought here by the White Wolf...what are the others? How are they in their current situation? Long Yuehong looked around alertly, feeling desolate and quiet. The city square covered with green plants seemed to be brewing unknown things.
The unknown often represents horror.
Jiang Baimian did not waste much time and quickly completed the preliminary autopsy.
She said as she removed the gloves and put them in a special plastic bag:
"It seems that they died of falling to death, but it is unknown what changes in their spirit or body before they jumped off the building. Alas, there is no detailed dissection here."
She actually knew about autopsy... Wang Fugui was stunned.
For him, even the word "automy" was learned through some old world books found when exploring other ruins.
Of course, as ruin hunters, they also contact corpses, check marks, and judge the cause of death in their daily adventures, but this is very superficial and does not form a systematic science. It is purely supported by experience. Therefore, they can only confirm whether the target is a gun, sharp weapon, or a wild beast, whether it dies after fierce battles, or is attacked by someone behind the scenes.
As for the items found on the corpse, Jiang Baimian collected them all and prepared to study them carefully after going back.
Waite and others did not stop it, nor did they try to get a piece of the pie. After all, most of the missing ruins hunters and wilderness wanderers lived a hard life. The valuable ones were weapons and organs.
"Their guns are gone." Wang Fugui said this obvious fact.
"Before entering the ruins of the city, I was disarmed by the white wolf, or I left my weapons somewhere before jumping off the building and committing suicide?" Jiang Baimian looked up at the majestic black building.
She breathed slowly and said:
"We don't go in, just walk around to see if there are any clues."
"Okay." Waite was the first to respond.
He just wanted to take the opportunity to make a fortune, and he was faster than Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen, the three members of the "old tuner group" who agreed with Jiang Baimian faster.
This made Long Yuehong feel sympathetic.
Gray and Fars had no idea of finding the secrets of the old world, so he expressed his support after pondering for a moment.
For them, looking for the secrets of the old world is to make money and exchange the materials they need. Now that there are other ways to harvest valuable items, there is no need to take risks.
Except for a very small number, most humans choose whatever they want easily and safely. Of course, the premise is that the wealth gained by those options is not much different in current cognition.
"Okay." Wang Fugui took his eyes back from the black building.
The two teams immediately bypassed the place and walked to the side.
"Wow! Wow! Wow!"
A crow flew past in the air, causing many birds to sing.
"It seems that there are no creatures here." Shang Jianyao looked disappointed.
But in this environment, the crow's screams were more terrifying than nothing... Long Yuehong retorted in his heart.
As he walked, Jiang Baimian suddenly stopped.
Following her gaze, Bai Chen saw a leather shoe with simple workmanship and rough style.
It has a lot of soil on the upper part of the shoe, and the surface is marked by rain after drying.
Compared with the shoes on the feet of some nearby corpses, it looks very "new".
Long Yuehong slowly raised her gaze and looked at the corresponding air of the leather shoes.
Then, he saw a highly decayed corpse on the street tree, with its tongue sticking out slightly swaying with the breeze.
The corpse was bare on one foot and was wearing leather shoes on the other.
The leather shoes are the same as the ones on the ground.
Wang Fugui's expression was slightly condensed and he said in a deep voice:
"The leather used in this shoe is a kind of distorted creature, and it must have not been before the destruction of the old world."
He means that the body hanging on the street trees belongs to a ruin hunter or wilderness wanderer who had disappeared before.
There was a suicide by jumping off the building, and here was a suicide by hanging himself? Long Yuehong felt a chill coming out of her heart.
Jiang Baimian nodded slowly, indicating that this looked exactly like this.
Shang Jianyao asked curiously:
"What kind of aberrant creature?"
"I don't know what the major forces call it. Anyway, it is a distorted electric eel. Its skin is closer to snakes, and it is like a giant python. It also retains the ability to release high-voltage currents. It is very suitable for lakes and rivers. It is called the "Dragon King" by many wanderers of gray and earth blood. Some people even sacrifice them and give them tributes." Wang Fugui briefly introduced, "The smaller ones among them are not that difficult to kill."
When he said this, he did not associate this aberrant creature with Jiang Baimian's special abilities at all.
In his mind, it should be a hidden special discharge device.
After Shang Jianyao got the answer, he looked up at the street tree:
"Do you want to put it down?"
"You can give it a try." Jiang Baimian nodded slightly.
Shang Jianyao put on gloves and volunteered. Wang Fugui's team of four hunters and Long Yuehong looked alert, as if he was afraid of corpses or other horrible things.
Soon, the body was put on the ground, and Jiang Baimian started a simple inspection.
Waite and others took the opportunity to search the surrounding vehicles and corpses to find valuable items.
"It was hanged." Not long after, Jiang Baimian stood up.
Seeing this, Shang Jianyao dragged it over the Old World plastic canopy on the street and covered it on the body.
"You're still, that's right..." Wang Fugui didn't know how to describe it for a moment.
"Normal?" Shang Jianyao commented on himself.
"..." Wang Fugui couldn't accept it.
They each collected some supplies, and the two teams turned into a residential area next to them.
This is the closest settlement to the black building.
"I don't know if anyone who works in that building lives here..." Jiang Baimian whispered to the group members.
Shang Jianyao shook his head with a heavy face:
"According to the various entertainment materials in the Old World, housing prices in the core areas of the city are unaffordable for ordinary employees."
"There are all high-level managers who can bear it, which is more valuable." Jiang Baimian nodded, "There is also the possibility of renting a house. It is very convenient to live near the workplace."
While speaking, they carried weapons and carefully entered the residential area.
Although they have not encountered any danger yet, the weirdness here has made the air tight.
As soon as they passed the entrance, the eight people's eyes turned to the landscape pond in front of them at the same time.
There was a corpse floating there, swollen, rotten, and soaked in water.
"One of those people brought here by the white wolf?" With the previous experience, Long Yuehong made a guess directly.
This man drowned himself in a landscape pond?
Those people who were brought into the ruins of Wasteland No. 13 committed suicide in various ways in different places in the ruins of the city?
Hiss... Long Yuehong heard Waite's sound of gasping in the cold air.
To be honest, he almost did this, just a little slower.
The strangeness of this matter was almost beyond his psychological endurance.
Wang Fugui stared for a moment and said:
"I'm really afraid that if I stay here for a long time, I will commit suicide like them inexplicably without warning..."
"This possibility is not ruled out." Jiang Baimian replied seriously.
Weiter's pupils dilated slightly and he said anxiously:
"Why go back?"
To be continued...
