Deep in the Living

Chapter 228 Friend Application
Looking at the street below which he could no longer follow, Rody rubbed his nose.

“It should be the same person that you perceived during lunch in the afternoon.

Could it be the staff of the 4hs website? Because I will accept and complete an offline task every day, and the uploaded videos have certain editing, so they sent someone to follow and observe my situation?
Or is there some special pseudo-human organization that has set its sights on me?"

Since the tracking failed, he returned to the teaching building and tried to search for any clues left by the other party, but found nothing. Even the remaining scent in the air completely dissipated over time.

Obviously, the other party is very good at hiding and tracking.

Back to the rental house.

After Luo Di uploaded the video and passed the verification and received 50 fear beans as a reward, he did not start shopping but clicked on the manual service in the lower right corner of the website.

Soon, a night shift customer service representative contacted Luo Di, and the other party's response was very strange.

"You have not committed any violations on the website. Our staff will never follow you offline, and no leakage of your offline activity information has been detected.

If you are sure that you are being followed by an outsider during an event, please prioritize the incident and pay attention to your personal safety.

Please leave Moon City if necessary. 』

After receiving a positive response from customer service, although Luo Di did not completely rule out the suspicion of the website, he began to suspect that a special pseudo-person or organization was targeting him, which might be related to an offline event.

"If there is any stalking again, take it seriously."

Luo Di did not feel any sense of crisis, or rather, this level of tracking was not enough to affect his life. He continued to shop in the mall late at night and went to bed when he felt sleepy.

When I woke up, it was already the next afternoon.

The goods purchased online have arrived and are piled up at the door, with only an ordinary khaki package sandwiched between the black packages from the 4hs website.

After making sure that there was no one around, a slender gray tentacle emerged from Rody's palm, rolled up the strange package and tore it open.

There was no dangerous goods as expected, nor was there any product of a prank, but rather a limited edition killer postcard that was extremely rare on the market.

On the back of the postcard, pieces of bloody nails, as if they had just been plucked off, were used to create a big peach heart.

"..."

As the arms exerted force, the gray tentacles also began to exert force, squeezing the postcard and crushing it completely.

He did not let trivial matters interrupt his peaceful daily life. He continued to enjoy the pleasure of unpacking the express packages. He filled the entire rental house with murderous elements, creating a dream house that belonged to Rody alone.

Even the toothbrush used for rinsing the mouth was shaped like a dagger, and the towel looked like a murder item stained with blood.

Tonight's offline event, Luo Di needs to go to the car rental company, find the car with the last three digits of the license plate number as [666], and drive along the navigation route set in the car.

He seemed quite serious about this activity.
Not only does he focus on the incident itself, but he also keeps an eye on the "stalker" who may be lurking in the dark while driving.

As Rody completely killed the pseudo-people hiding inside the car and moving around in the car seats and trunk like meat paste, the risk of offline activities was eliminated.

It took an hour and a half to complete the entire journey.

This time it was strange.
It didn't seem like he was being followed, and his tongue didn't even click once.

"After I found you at the elementary school last night, did you realize the risk and give up? I hope so."

Rody's current location is quite far from the rental house, almost requiring half a month's journey across the city, so he had to take a late-night taxi.

The driver was a man with an untidy beard and a fierce look. A machete and a pistol could even be seen next to the driver's seat.

When I got in the car, I said coldly:

"There are only about thirty people in the city who dare to drive a taxi in the city center at night, and the price is tripled. No matter if you are a human or a pseudo-human, don't even think about attacking me.

If you agree, get in the car."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Luo Di got on the bus, he transferred more than three times the fare.

It was the first time that the driver had met such a straightforward passenger. When he looked through the rearview mirror, he saw a pair of red eyes. The tough driver immediately became honest.

Arrived at the rental house at 2:30 in the morning.

click!
Unlock the door and enter.
Put on slippers,

As soon as he returned to the bedroom and sat in front of his laptop, Rody suddenly realized something.

It's not tongue flicking,
Instead, he noticed at a glance that the limited edition figurine placed on the desk had a slight shift of less than 5°.

After discovering this, I carefully looked around the house and found that many things had been touched, but there was no residual smell.

"Someone came, but left..."

Immediately activate the camera function of the coat, confirm that nothing is missing, and return to the bedroom without any eavesdropping equipment installed. Currently, there is only one area left to check - the bed.

Check under the bed first.
Roddy did not bend down to check. Instead, he used the ability of the camera coat to move the button camera to the top of the shoe, and the captured image under the bed could be uploaded directly to his brain.

There was no one under the bed.

In that case, all that was left was the bed covered with bedding.

Rody made a chopping gesture with his right hand and pinched the edge of the quilt with his left hand... He guessed that there might be a petite fake person who was good at hiding lying inside.

Wow~ the quilt was lifted up.

nobody,
But under the quilt and on top of the sheets, there was something and a slight smell covered by the quilt, a somewhat disgusting smell.

The first thing you see is a postcard, exactly the same as it was during the day.

Just to be on the safe side,

Roddy still used his tentacles to roll it up, and at the same time he could practice his tentacle control.

however,
This time, there was nothing on the back of the postcard, no heart made of fingernails... but the postcard concealed something that made Rody feel physically uncomfortable and even made him show a disgusted expression.

Under the postcard,

Just above the mattress that was blocked,

Leave a "heart".

It is not made of objects.
Rather, it is a peach heart formed by liquid, and the smell comes from this liquid, a liquid that is only secreted when interested.

The other party is very good at hiding, but he deliberately left something like this behind.

Instead of washing it, Roddy threw the entire mattress and bedding into the garbage station downstairs.

When I went upstairs again, I took a special look at the elderly couple who rented the house to make sure they were okay.

I returned to the bedroom again, opened all the windows and turned on the fan. Although the smell was very faint, I always felt that it could not be eliminated. As long as I stayed in the bedroom, I could vaguely smell a similar smell.

Back to the laptop again,

I plan to submit today's offline activities.

The notebook is just in closed state, and you can return to the website interface as soon as you open it.

Just about to reply,
Drop drop!
A message alert sound came from the laptop speaker, which was extremely harsh in the quiet night.

You know, before using the laptop, Rody would turn the volume to the minimum, but now it was turned to the maximum.

The computer was also touched.

Moreover, the message notification sound comes from the friend reply function that comes with the website.

It was the female friend whom Rody had chosen to ignore before, whose profile picture was a smiling face with a dark background, [Wendy].

The friend column also changed from 0/0 to 1/1.

【Wendy】has been added as a friend.

I clicked on the other person's constantly jumping avatar, and a conversation box popped up.

The four simplest Chinese characters appear above.

"I like you."

Then another conversation popped up, as if the other party had calculated the time when Rody would return home.

"I believe you have received the "heart". This is the taste I reserved for you. Your tongue seems to be very special. Perhaps you can lick this taste to hunt me."

It doesn’t matter if you throw it in the trash can. I drained a lot of water on purpose, so the smell won’t go away even if you leave it there until tomorrow morning.”

Just when Luo Di was about to click to delete the friend, beep!
Another message popped up:
"But don't ever think about moving out of this rental house, otherwise they might not be able to find you, and then they might get so upset and depressed that they might kill everyone in this rental house.

What a pity. From what I have observed, you have neither a lover nor relatives, otherwise it would be easier to get you.

If you see this, please reply. I am also a fan of murder, and I hope to have a chance to communicate with you in depth. "

Looking at the conversation information on the computer screen,

Rody had a rare feeling deep in his brain, a strong sense of discomfort and disgust, and his fingers began to twitch slightly.
