Chapter 292 The Mighty Monster, A Close Call!
Chapter 292 The Mighty Monster, A Close Call!
Zhu Chongjiu ran with his daughter in his arms, looking back as he went. He saw that a rockery at the end of the park seemed to have been broken apart by someone using some unknown method.
As Zhu Chongjiu looked back, the person burst out from the flying rubble and ran into the distance.
Moreover, several uniformed personnel were following behind this person, suggesting a chase or escape relationship.
Coincidentally, when Zhu Chongjiu turned around and saw this scene, the eyes of the person being chased met Zhu Chongjiu's.
Due to the distance and the limited time, Zhu Chongjiu was unable to clearly see the person's face.
He could only vaguely sense that the person looked at him for a fleeting moment, then gave him a sinister smile.
Then something happened that made Zhu Chongjiu believe he was doomed.
Amidst the shattered and scattered artificial hill, the man leaped and swept his leg, sending a rock the size of a washbasin flying towards him.
From the moment Zhu Chongjiu turned his head to the moment the man kicked a stone at him, only a blink of an eye had passed.
Seeing the bullet-like stones flying towards him, all Zhu Chongjiu could do was to hold onto his daughter tightly and fall forward.
At that moment, Zhu Chongjiu's only thought was that the man's aim was a little off, and the stones hit his sides.
Or the rocks could be higher, flying over one's head.
If such a large rock were to hit you at such a high speed, and it were to hit your arm or leg, it would be equivalent to amputation.
If it hits your own body, it's no different from a shell that won't explode.
Just as Zhu Chongjiu collapsed to the ground, lost in thought, besides the sound of his daughter crying in his arms, he also felt a sudden warmth on his back.
Nothing else happened.
Oh, and at the same time that person kicked the stone at him, there was also a sharp, delicate shout!
"Where are the stones?"
Even if it doesn't hit you, it will still create a dent in the road next to you, right?
Besides, not a single sound was made!
Two seconds later, Zhu Chongjiu slightly raised his head and turned to look, but there was nothing there.
There were only four people in uniform who were about to arrive at my side.
Zhu Chongjiu had just stood up, and before he could even think about carefully searching for the stone that had flown towards him, the woman among the four people—three men and one woman—who had already reached his side asked him with a strange look and tone:
"Are you a mutant?"
Upon hearing the woman's question, Zhu Chongjiu gave up the idea of searching for that stone.
He quickly comforted his daughter, who was still sobbing in his arms, and replied:
"What alienation or alienation? I don't know what you're talking about!"
After saying that, Zhu Chongjiu led the child toward the building where he was.
As Zhu Chongjiu walked back, he noticed that the group didn't bother him much; they just stood there watching him leave with unnatural expressions.
Zhu Chongjiu was filled with questions about what had just happened.
What exactly happened just now?
Why did those people call me a mutant?
As soon as they went upstairs, Zhu Chongjiu took out some toys and let his daughter play by herself.
He then took out his phone and started searching to see if anyone had uploaded a video of what had just happened.
Logically speaking, in this era where people post something on social media before they die, he didn't believe that such a big thing hadn't been recorded.
To Zhu Chongjiu's surprise, he searched online for a long time but found no information about what had just happened.
Through this incident, Zhu Chongjiu came to completely believe one thing.
In this era of global mutation, there isn't a single video about mutations available online. It seems the government is intentionally blocking this kind of information.
After a moment of contemplation, Zhu Chongjiu suddenly remembered that since he couldn't find it online, the community's surveillance cameras must have captured it.
After the child's mother gets off work, she can go to the property management office and check the surveillance footage herself, right?
It's just unclear whether some departments will monitor this kind of information and order its immediate deletion.
What Zhu Chongjiu didn't know was that after he turned and left, one of the four men said to the only woman:
"Team leader, what should we do?"
Do you need to take it back with you?
The woman, who was also the group leader, looked at Zhu Chongjiu's back and replied, "No need for now. It seems he doesn't know about his transformation."
He was just an ordinary citizen.
I will report this to the organization later.
Let's go hunt down the "Mighty Monster" first!
We finally managed to catch him, and if he gets away again, our group will lose face big time.
"It's alright, team leader. The third brother has already cast a curse on this powerful monster."
He can't escape this time, no matter where he is.
"Alright, second brother, hurry up and chase after them."
Also, we must be careful this time.
This time they've encountered a mutant. If it were an ordinary person, that attack from the superhuman would have been fatal.
Furthermore, the fourth brother immediately notified headquarters to send someone to handle the aftermath.
Delete all related video and audio recordings of what just happened.
At the group leader's closing remarks, the four of them quickly got up and chased after the fleeing person.
4:30!
Zhu Chongjiu checked the time every three to five minutes. He had already put on his shoes and was waiting at the door.
The moment his wife arrived home, Zhu Chongjiu immediately said:
"Honey, you watch the baby for a bit, I'm going downstairs!"
Without waiting for his wife to ask him anything, he hurriedly took the elevator downstairs, just as she had come up.
The moment Zhu Chongjiu stepped into the elevator, his wife hurriedly asked, "Honey, what's wrong with your clothes?"
But before he could utter the next few words, the elevator doors had already closed.
Although Zhu Chongjiu heard his wife asking about his clothes.
But why did he not change his clothes and instead go downstairs in his pajamas?
In fact, Zhu Chongjiu wore home clothes all day, including taking the children downstairs to sunbathe in the morning.
Men, as long as the temperature is suitable, rarely change their clothes every time they go out.
Especially those who go downstairs for a stroll.
After Zhu Chongjiu went downstairs, he rushed to the property management office.
He was afraid that some people would delete what happened that morning.
During this time, he also considered taking the child to the property management office to check the surveillance footage.
But because of what happened that morning, he was a little hesitant to take his child out for a stroll.
Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance that something like what happened this morning will happen again.
Upon arriving at the property, things unfolded exactly as Zhu Chongjiu had predicted.
After he identified himself as a resident of the community and the victim of the incident that morning, requesting to view the surveillance footage, the property management staff replied with a distressed expression to Zhu Chongjiu:
"Just over an hour after what happened this morning, people from above came."
They demanded that all surveillance videos from today's events in the community be deleted.
In addition to the property management's surveillance, the authorities also instructed the property management to conduct visits to some homeowners.
If any of these events were recorded, they must all be deleted.
Otherwise, they will face imprisonment.
The property management staff member then whispered to Zhu Chongjiu, "I've heard it's not just in our community."
People from several residential communities in the county came and did the same thing.
"Okay, thank you!"
After hearing this, Zhu Chongjiu thanked him and turned to walk back.
However, as Zhu Chongjiu turned around, the property management staff asked him in surprise, "Sir, what happened to your clothes?"
"clothing?
What's wrong with my clothes?
"I just changed into these new ones today. Did they get dirty because of what happened this morning?"
As Zhu Chongjiu spoke, he looked left and right, but couldn't figure it out.
Upon seeing this, the property management staff member stammered and finally said, "Sir, you should take it off and check it again when you get home!"
Amidst the surprised looks of the property staff, Zhu Chongjiu returned home from the property management office.
Upon arriving home, the moment he stepped inside, he saw his wife, carrying the child, quickly approach Zhu Chongjiu.
While Zhu Chongjiu was changing his shoes, his wife looked at his back in surprise and said, "Honey, are you playing with fire?"
