Weird Live Broadcast: I Can Deduce Endlessly

Chapter 94: Arrest Operation

Gu Yi found the blurry contract from his backpack, and after he put on the mask, the writing on the contract became clear.

[Silas Dark Moon's Trading Contract]

[The contractor will gain the abilities of the Dark Moon Circus clown, at the cost of their lifespan. After the contract is established, the contractor will only have seven days left to live.]

[Contractor: Gu Yi]

"I see, no wonder this instance is so time-constrained.

The whole world exists relying on my sister's power. She created me to save her, to wake her up from her slumber. And our parents, the cat and rat, and all the residents of Huan Dao Town rely on her dream realm for their existence.

Naturally, they don't want me to awaken my sister, so our parents and the cat and rat will always try everything to kill me, and they can't even wait for just seven days.

If it weren't for my sister's subconscious protecting and guiding me to find clues, I'm afraid I would have been gone long ago."

He instinctively reached out into his pocket and indeed took out a balloon. He skillfully blew the balloon and folded it into the shape of a balloon sword.

Swoosh!

Gu Yi held the sword and swung it towards the chair.

The chair instantly shattered into pieces.

Excitedly, Gu Yi clenched his fist and noticed that his pants suddenly felt heavier. He reached into his pocket and found various strange props inside, including a piece of paper with rules written on it.

[Instructions for Using the Clown Mask]

[1. Never talk.]

[2. Always maintain a smile.]

[3. Always have an audience.]

[4. Always remember: No matter how sad or wronged you feel, save your tears for after the curtain falls.]

...

Back in the real world.

Qu Kangping, along with the strategy team and the police, arrived at their destination.

This place was called Huang Jia Town, a seaside town where all the residents made a living by fishing.

Three or four years ago, Huang Jia Town encountered a mysterious phenomenon, and the whole town was enveloped in thick fog. Without a local resident to guide you, you would be trapped in an endless maze until you starved to death in the fog.

Today.

The once calm town was no longer peaceful.

With the guidance of the local resident, the police stormed into the town and arrested nearly twenty key suspects overnight.

Their entire clan was suspected of human trafficking, smuggling, drug manufacturing, and trafficking. They were notorious criminals. The fog surrounding the town acted as a natural barrier protecting them. Without the Dragon Country Strategy Team's involvement, it would have been nearly impossible to find evidence against these people.

"Everyone surrender yourselves!"

"What did I do?"

"What did you do? Don't you know what you've done? Come with us!"

"How can you police just arrest people at will?"

"Brothers, get your weapons and fight back!"

"Don't let them leave the town!"

Seeing their members being arrested, all the town's residents took out their weapons. Some had harpoons, some had kitchen knives, and there were even villagers with homemade spears.

They blocked the town's only exit, trying to resist.

The village had nearly a thousand residents, while the police team was less than a hundred.

Chief Hu Chang stepped forward, picked up a loudspeaker, and shouted, "You are now suspected of obstructing official duties. I'll give you three chances to clear the road immediately, or else..."

Bang!

A gunshot rang out.

Chief Hu Chang was startled, almost losing his hat. He instinctively hid behind the police car, thinking that a villager from the other side had fired the shot.

But when he looked up, he found that the villager holding the homemade spear had been shot in the head.

"In the era of weird powers causing chaos, the fundamental principle is to ensure the smooth clearance of adventurers in 'Weird World'," Qu Kangping's gun emitted smoke. "Now you are suspected of endangering the lives of adventurers. According to the law, we can shoot on sight. If you don't want to die, then keep coming!"

The crowd hesitated for a moment, then raised their weapons and charged.

Qu Kangping's subordinates quickly loaded their guns and fired without hesitation.

The police, now aware of the situation, took out tear gas and stun guns.

In just a few minutes, the unruly crowd was suppressed.

Chief Hu Chang wiped the sweat from his forehead, roughly estimating that Qu Kangping alone had killed 20 residents.

"Team Leader Qu, why did you kill so many people all at once?"

"Is there a problem?" Qu Kangping put away his gun and didn't even look at Hu Chang. "These people deserved to die, and I would never kill the wrong person."

"Um... but how am I supposed to write about these things in the report?"

"You can write however you want."

"But, were those legal provisions you mentioned earlier real?"

"Of course not, I made them up." Qu Kangping lit a cigarette. "I just didn't want to waste time on these useless people. Sometimes, special situations require special handling. Those above will understand."

"Ah? Team Leader... Team Leader, wait!"

Hu Chang looked anxious as he watched Qu Kangping.

But Qu Kangping didn't pay him any attention and walked straight toward the center of the village.

As a former adventurer, Qu Kangping's intuition and mental power far exceeded that of an ordinary person. He had a faint feeling that there might be some Weird items in the center of the town. He loaded a fresh magazine and continued forward with Ah Jian.

"Team Leader, I think it might be the old house up ahead."

"Yeah, I think so too."

Qu Kangping arrived at the front of the old house and climbed over the fence.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, causing Qu Kangping to step back three steps.

Ah Jian quickly stepped forward and shielded Qu Kangping.

"Team Leader, is it a ghost?"

"Don't be afraid, the ghosts here are gone. I can't sense their presence anymore."

Qu Kangping pushed the door and entered.

The old house was in a dilapidated state, with a strong smell of decay everywhere.

Qu Kangping climbed the stairs, driven by intuition, and reached the third floor.

On the third-floor corridor, a black cat was gently licking a large rat, and the rat had its belly exposed, squinting its eyes in enjoyment.

Qu Kangping closed his eyes and shook his head, and the weird cat and rat disappeared immediately.

"Team Leader, what's wrong with you?"

"I saw some illusions."

"Is it mental contamination?"

"No, it's my intuition giving me hints." Qu Kangping closed his eyes and pondered for a moment. "A nest of cat and rat? Hmph... I understand now. When we get back, immediately assign people to investigate the leaders in the city. No one can escape the punishment of the law."

"Understood."

Qu Kangping pushed open the door to the third-floor room.

A man wearing a clown mask was staring at him slyly, and Qu Kangping instinctively raised his gun, only to realize that the clown was also an illusion.

"Damn it... why do these things keep happening today?"

"Team Leader, are you okay?"

"I haven't lost control of my intuition for a long time, but today I've had two consecutive hallucinations. Just now, I saw a clown appear here."

Qu Kangping shook his head and walked to where the clown disappeared.

There was a yellowed drawing paper on the floor, covered in dust.

He gently blew away the floating dust.

It was a child's drawing, depicting a family of four.

Father, mother, brother, and sister.

Ah Jian squatted beside Qu Kangping and also saw the drawing. His eyes widened when he noticed that the brother in the drawing was slowly fading away.

"Team Leader, what is this..."

"This is what Gu Yi mentioned, the weird world and the real world have a mapping relationship, right?"

The child's drawing gradually faded until it finally turned into a heap of black ashes.
