Chapter 165 The Sound of Chains

"What were you thinking about just now?"

Chen Fu looked Lin Jue up and down and asked, "Why are you so sneaky?"

"I'm so tired from pedaling my bike, my legs are weak." Lin Jue pretended to rub his calf and looked at Zhuang Kai who was treating his wound. "That guy is quite impressive. This friend is so seriously injured."

Zhuang Kai just stared at him and then looked away without saying anything.

Instead, Chen Fu responded, "What are you doing here?"

"Just a stroll." Lin Jue looked around and noticed the surveillance cameras outside the circus. He asked, "Are there any surveillance cameras inside the circus?"

"Yes, it's facing the center of the stage. Our investigators are checking it out." Chen Fu guessed Lin Jue's thoughts: "But I'm afraid you don't have the authority to see it."

The captain is really something. Even though we are such familiar people, why does he still act so businesslike?

Lin Jue curled his lips: "Is it okay for me to go in and take a look?"

"Okay, as long as you don't destroy the scene, there's no problem." Chen Fu gave him a green light on this matter.

After obtaining consent, Lin Jue directly lifted the curtain of the circus and walked in. He stopped at the wall of photos for a while. Sun Jiankang in the photo still had a terrifying smile on his face. He should no longer be suffering from the disease.

"Eh? What is this?"

He suddenly noticed that there were a few drops of black stains in the corner of the photo wall, as if ink had been accidentally spilled there.

He put his nose close to it and smelled it, and a foul and pungent smell hit his nose.

This is a bloodstain left by something strange.

Did a ghost come into the circus? Or was it something left behind when Sun Jiankang became a ghost?

Lin Jue took a picture of the bloodstain with his mobile phone and continued walking towards the stage.

Several people from the Inspection Department were investigating around the stage. The circus's director, Brother Wang, was hiding in a corner wiping away tears. It was obvious that Sun Jiankang's sudden death made this kind middle-aged man very sad.

He leaned towards the other person and handed him a cigarette.

Brother Wang raised his head. He recognized Lin Jue and quickly wiped the tears from his face. He took the cigarette and forced a stiff smile: "Thank you."

He lit the cigarette, took a long drag, and said as he exhaled the smoke, "Do you think death means relief for Sun Jiankang?"

"I don't know." Lin Jue shook his head: "But I know that even though he was tortured by the disease, he was always trying to live, even though everything made him very unhappy."

Brother Wang smiled bitterly and didn't say anything else. He just lowered his head and smoked in silence.

After the other party finished smoking, Lin Jue picked up the topic again: "Did Sun Jiankang behave in any strange way before the accident?"

Brother Wang put out his cigarette on the floor and sighed, "No, he's no different than before. He goes to work on time and completes his work meticulously. Even though there are fewer and fewer people visiting the amusement park now, maybe he's very sad. After all, this is the only memory his father left him, and now it's going bankrupt."

It seems that he really died suddenly due to illness.

Lin Jue thought of the few drops of strange blood he saw on the photo wall and asked, "Has anything strange happened in the amusement park these days?"

"For example, pranks." Pranks?

Brother Wang's face froze when he heard this. "No, I only know that Sun Jiankang has become a ghost. It was someone from your Inspection Department who told me."

It seems that he mistook Lin Jue for someone from the Audit Department, so his answers were very detailed.

As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to think of something else: "Wait a minute, I heard the cleaning lady say yesterday that when she was cleaning the men's restroom in the afternoon, she seemed to hear the faint sound of chains shaking, but when we went to check, there was nothing unusual."

The sound of rattling chains?
Lin Jue thought of the chains that had appeared on Bi Zheng. Could it be that Bi Zheng had been to this amusement park? Could it be that he had returned from the fog?
It is possible that Sun Jiankang is the Son of the Mist, and Bi Zheng is also the Son of the Mist, and there is a connection between the two.

But if it really is Bi Zheng, then what is the purpose of coming to this amusement park?

Was he looking to see his own kind, or was there some other reason? And since he had returned from the fog, did that mean there was a chance he could get into the raincoat?

If that key requires all the Mistborn to be gathered together, then if he stuffs a few Mistborn into his raincoat first, will that prevent the lock in the foggy area from opening?
Countless thoughts emerged in his mind. Lin Jue comforted Brother Wang and went to the men's restroom that Brother Wang mentioned.

In the last cubicle of the toilet, he found a few drops of black blood on the wall. It was obvious that a ghost had stayed there.

Considering the sound of the chains, he was basically certain that the monster that had sneaked into the amusement park was Bi Zheng.

After walking around the circus a few more times and not seeing anything else unusual, Lin Jue said hello to Chen Fu, got on his bike and slowly walked back.

Things are basically done. I will take over the script of "Prayer" when I get back.

He thought for a while and decided not to call Xiao Ming back. The child had just reunited with his grandfather, so he should let him spend more time with the old man.

After returning home, he filled half a tube of blood for the old man and said solemnly: "Uncle, drink this quickly. We are going out for a trip tomorrow morning."

Without Xiao Ming, he has to improve the old man's strength as soon as possible.

"No, why would you drink this when traveling?" The old man stared at the tube of murderous blood in doubt. Being a weirdo, he knew even more clearly how terrifying this thing was. The resentment pierced his skin and penetrated into his bone marrow like needles.

Lin Jue replied in a serious tone, "It might be a little dangerous, but I assure you, it's definitely not as dangerous as that school. We're going to a resort, so there might be one or two weirdos. We'll just eliminate them while we're there. The ultimate goal is to travel."

"Can you tell the truth, kid?" The old man was too lazy to argue with Lin Jue. He took the blood directly, hesitated for a few seconds, and swallowed it in one gulp.

This kid is not just courting death, he's on the way to death. If you follow him, you have to improve your own strength. After all, one day you might be inexplicably killed by the enemies provoked by this kid.

As the murderous blood entered his body, raging black flames suddenly burst out from the old man's body, as if the black flames from hell completely devoured the old man. His facial features suddenly wrinkled together, and his body was covered with hideous wounds. He let out a pig-slaughtering scream.

Obviously, although fierce blood can improve strength, the process must be very painful.

"Boy, what the hell is this thing? I feel like countless wronged souls are tearing me apart!"

Lin Jue also realized that the degree of distortion of his mind was slowly increasing, and his rationality was fighting against the resentment of the murderous blood.

However, the old man still has his sanity, which means that the amount of murderous blood is within an acceptable range and he just needs to rely on his sanity to slowly suppress it.

"There are plenty of specially prepared drinks, and they will all be given to you from now on." Lin Jue replied, and before the old man could start cursing, he put him into his raincoat.
