Chapter 36 Terrible Guy

Jiang Yu looked inside the barbed wire fence, then looked at Nagihiko.

"core?"

"right."

Nagi nodded, a slight smile playing on her lips, revealing an expression that said, "I knew it."

"This clumsy tactic of trying to cover up the truth is a typical trick used by Level 3.1 anomalies."

"Look, they've put up a 'Construction Ahead' sign on the wasteland, then strung up a barbed wire fence, and installed a bunch of security cameras..."

"When a normal person sees this, they would think, 'Oh, there's construction going on here, and the barbed wire is electrified,' and then they would go around it."

She paused, then turned to look at Jiang Yu.

His eyes held a confident, unwavering composure.

"But that's exactly the effect we wanted."

"It doesn't want to be discovered, so it deliberately creates the illusion that 'there's nothing to see here, don't come in.'"

"The more this is the case, the more it indicates that there is a problem."

Jiang Yu listened with a look of bewilderment.

WTF?

Isn't this just normal operation on a construction site?

Every legitimate tourist attraction will have areas that are not open to the public.

It could be a power distribution station, an equipment room, or facilities under maintenance...

To prevent tourists from wandering around and getting into danger, isn't it only natural for scenic spots to put up barbed wire fences and warning signs?

It would be strange if a scenic area didn't even have a place like this.

But Nagi's expression didn't seem like she was joking.

When she said this, her tone was as certain as that of an old detective who had seen through all the deceptions in the world.

Jiang Yu was internally ranting and raving when Nagi started to take action.

She took two steps back...

The wind blew the hem of her trench coat up to the sides, revealing her shapely calves.

She lowered herself slightly, bent her knees, and swung her arms behind her...

That posture resembled a young cheetah about to pounce on its prey.

Immediately afterwards…

She used her legs to propel herself up and jumped on the spot.

No running start, no acceleration...

It's like having an invisible super spring under your feet.

She leaped into the air, transforming into a brown blur, and flew over the barbed wire fence, which was more than five meters high.

The trench coat spread out completely in the air, like a pair of giant wings.

Then she landed steadily.

The grass swayed slightly, making a very faint rustling sound.

The whole process was smooth and seamless.

It was as silent as a kitten jumping down from the wall.

Jiang Yu stood outside the barbed wire fence, his mouth agape, wide enough to fit an egg.

This is...

How did she just jump over the five-meter-high barbed wire fence so easily?

No running start, no acceleration...

Just jump?

Jiang Yu looked down at the spot where Nagi had just stood, then looked up at the ring of snake-belly-shaped bayonets at the top of the barbed wire...

He swallowed hard.

If it were him, he wouldn't even be able to jump over it.

He couldn't even hook the knife.

Nagi stood in the waist-high weeds and looked back at Jiang Yu.

"Come here."

"How...how do I get there?" Jiang Yu's voice was a little weak.

"Of course I'll hop over," Nagi said calmly.

"..."

Jiang Yu fell silent.

Jump over?

These three words echoed in his mind several times.

He recalled that during the physical exam yesterday, Wan Jiayu was propelled more than ten meters by Ideal Creation and got up as if nothing had happened.

At that time, he already felt that this world was outrageous.

Nagi taught him another lesson today.

Nagi made him realize that in this city planning bureau, "outrageous" was just the beginning.

The real ceiling is "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Just as he was immersed in a renewed understanding of the limits of human jumping ability…

"Shhh!"

A rustling sound came from behind me.

The sound was very soft, but very dense.

It looked like there were many, many things moving quickly through the grass.

Jiang Yu turned his head subconsciously.

Then his eyes widened suddenly.

A group of tourists was rushing towards him from all directions!

There was no warning, no transition.

One second ago, the surrounding area was a peaceful and serene scenic spot.

In the distance, the sounds of children laughing and playing could be heard, while nearby, a few tourists strolled by leisurely, discussing whether to go to the waterfall or the cable car next…

The next second, it was as if an invisible switch had been pressed for everyone.

The tourists' expressions were no longer as relaxed and carefree as before.

Their eyes were wide open, their pupils contracted to pinpoints, their lips were tightly pressed together, and the muscles in their faces were taut.

Everyone went completely insane!

Their facial expressions were exactly the same.

Twisted, excited, restless... like zombies that have smelled fresh flesh and blood.

More like a marionette!

Zombies are all menacing and aggressive, but they aren't.

Everyone's arms were raised high, close to their ears, as if they were being suspended by invisible threads in the air.

Invisible "lines" pull on their mouths, their arms, and rhythmically pull on their legs to make them run...

That posture was extremely strange, as if he were possessed.

It's comparable to the scene at the end of "The Grudge 2" where the female protagonist is possessed and runs straight towards you from a distance.

That's really fucking scary!

Those running at the very front...

A security guard in a fluorescent yellow vest had his mouth wide open, revealing every tooth and his dark throat.

A middle-aged woman wearing a floral dress had white streaks on her face from the sunscreen being washed away by sweat, making her look like a Peking Opera mask.

There was also a little girl with a mushroom-shaped haircut.

Jiang Yu saw her when he came in.

She was just holding her mother's hand, obediently pointing at those cartoon helium balloons.

Now she's grinning like a puffed-up kitten, yelling and screaming.

White foam kept dribbling from the corners of his mouth, like a mad dog about to bite someone.

Those big, innocent eyes were filled with a chilling...malice!

"Yay! Yay ...

"Come out, ahhh!"

"Get out here!"

The shouts of the tourists mingled together, growing closer and louder.

The noise surged in from all directions like a tide, one wave higher than the next.

The ground beneath my feet was shaking!

The sounds of footsteps, shouts, and clothes rubbing together were all mixed together.

Looking around, a dense crowd of people surged in like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

Twenty?

Thirty?

Fifty?

Perhaps more!

Moreover, even more people are rushing out from every corner of the scenic area to join this crazy "zombie horde".

Jiang Yu felt that even breathing had become difficult.

Holy crap!

He instinctively took a step back.

It's really scary to see a large group of people running towards you with their mouths agape and their arms in slings.

"Sister Guang! Sister Guang!" He turned his head and called for help into the barbed wire fence.

Nagi stood in the weeds, tilting her head to look at Jiang Yu.

There was no tension, no worry, and no emotion one would expect when seeing their disciple in danger in those peach blossom eyes.

All I felt was confusion.

"Wait... what are you doing here, a trainee clerk from the patrol section? Are you out of your mind?!"

"..."

Jiang Yu felt his blood pressure instantly spike to 180.

Didn't you bring me here?!

How did it turn out that I came here on my own?!

You're a terrible guy, you're really terrible!
