Five headless corpses lay sprawled at his feet, their dark red blood spreading rapidly across the filthy ground.
Just moments ago, my companion was shouting about "foreign meat" and "perfect food," but in the blink of an eye, all that remained was his twitching torso.
Further away, at the edge of the streetlight's glow, two figures stood silently in the darkness.
Only four eyes, like refined gold, radiated a cold, inhuman light in the darkness!
"Ugh—!" His stomach churned instantly, and the food and drink he had just eaten and drunk, mixed with bile, sprayed out of the gold-chained, tattooed man's mouth.
He knelt down, clutching his stomach, and vomit splashed onto his foot.
A bone-chilling cold shot up from the tailbone all the way to the top of the head.
"Who sent you?" A voice belonging to a young boy, yet filled with rage, rang out from the darkness, each word as cold as a knife.
The man with the gold chain and tattoos had been involved in the underworld for many years and had even committed acts of violence and bloodshed.
But the scene before my eyes is something no human could possibly do!
Those golden pupils in the darkness indicated that the other party was definitely not human!
He was terrified and his body was trembling uncontrollably.
“3……2……” The boy began to count down, the cold numbers like a death countdown.
"Brother Fu! It's Brother Fu!" The tattooed man with the gold chain cried out in despair, tears and snot mixed with blood streaming down his face. "Brother Fu sent us to cause you trouble! I'm just doing this for money, please spare me..."
Who is Brother Fu?
"He's...he's the local bigwig in this area, everyone in the underworld calls him Brother Fu, he has connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds..."
Why is he causing me trouble?
"I don't know! I really don't know! I'm just a lowly clerk who gets paid to do things, please let me go..."
“A group of people should be all together,” the voice in the darkness interrupted his pleas, carrying a chilling sarcasm. “How could you beg for mercy?”
The moment the words left his mouth, the last thing the man with the gold chain and tattoo saw was a headless body slumped in his own vomit.
Lu Mingfei stood there, looking at the six corpses lying in the alley, their blood, which had suddenly boiled, was rapidly cooling down.
He looked down at his hands, which were stained with dark red, and a wave of unreal dizziness washed over him.
He actually killed someone like that?
Just because of a few lewd words from the other party to Zero, the raging rage in his heart completely overwhelmed him, and he killed six people in one fell swoop.
And the methods used were so...
Before he could fully recover from the shock and slight confusion, a cold, mechanical voice suddenly rang out from the depths of his mind:
[System notification: You have received an email. Please check it as soon as possible.]
Chapter 63 Post-event processing
As the system's cold, mechanical voice faded, Lu Mingfei jolted awake, fully waking up.
Without the slightest hesitation, he instantly activated the "Forced Calm" skill.
Like an invisible chill washing over my thoughts, all fear and panic vanished swiftly, replaced by the high-speed operation of absolute rationality.
Now is not the time to be afraid; we must immediately address the immediate "aftermath."
Anyone who has committed murder knows that killing is not difficult; the difficulty lies in how to dispose of the body.
The biggest challenge at hand is how to make the six corpses, the bloodstains on the ground, and the evidence on the two men disappear without a trace.
Otherwise, what awaits him is not tomorrow's sunrise, but armed men breaking down his door, pointing guns at his head, and saying:
"Lu Mingfei, you're under arrest!"
Countless conventional solutions were listed in the rapidly processing mind, only to be quickly rejected.
Bury it? Not enough time, not the right place.
Throwing it into the sea? That would be too noisy and too risky.
Burning? The tools and traces are all problematic.
No, all conventional methods are not working.
Almost the instant this conclusion was reached, he immediately turned to the only shortcut—the system store!
Since the system has so many strange and wonderful items, solving the "cleaning" problem shouldn't be difficult, right?
He focused his mind and gave the order: find a solution to dispose of the body and remove the bloodstains.
The semi-transparent system interface in front of me changes instantly at my command.
Four small icons, each emitting a different faint glow, appeared:
Blood cleansing agents
Corpse cleaning agent
[Clothing Cleaning Card]
[Body Cleaning Card]
Each item is marked with the same number on the bottom: 2 points.
Lu Mingfei's lips, which were taut from forced composure, twitched slightly.
Wow, the supporting services are quite comprehensive! This is truly a godsend!
The moment the thought crossed his mind, he released the "forced calm" and forcefully suppressed the intense dizziness.
Without any hesitation, he immediately used his points to redeem the four items.
With his hands, which were loosely clenched, he raised them upwards, and two things instantly appeared in his palms:
In his left hand was a slender blue reagent bottle, its material as transparent as crystal, containing a liquid that emitted pale blue specks;
In his right hand was a heavy black vial, its walls adorned with tiny silver specks of light, giving it a cold and mysterious appearance.
Zero's gaze fell on these suddenly appearing items, a pure curiosity flashing in her clear eyes.
She knew that Lu Mingfei had the secret of the "system," but she didn't know much about the specific details of the props.
She didn't ask any questions, she just watched quietly.
Lu Mingfei first pulled out the stopper from the black vial in his right hand—[Corpse Cleaning Agent].
He strode over to the scattered corpses and tilted the bottle slightly without hesitation.
A thick, black liquid, like tar, dripped onto the mangled body, glistening with silvery light.
An incredible sight has occurred!
The moment the drug came into contact with the corpse, it was like scalding hot oil being poured onto ice. With an extremely slight "hissing" sound, the corpse instantly began to vaporize violently!
They don't burn; instead, they decompose directly into almost transparent smoke and dust, which quickly blends into the night.
The entire process was silent and efficient. In just a few seconds, the six heavy corpses, along with fragments of clothing on the ground, vanished completely as if they had never existed.
All that remained on the ground were pools of shocking dark red blood.
Lu Mingfei deftly put the stopper back on the black reagent bottle, leaving about half a bottle of reagent remaining.
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately retrieved the horrible cleaning agent from his personal system account.
Immediately afterwards, he uncorked the blue reagent bottle in his left hand—[blood cleansing agent].
He crouched down and carefully dripped the liquid, which emitted faint blue specks, onto the nearest pool of blood.
A miracle has happened again!
The thick, rusty-smelling blood, like water droplets falling into the desert, was rapidly "absorbed" by the cement floor and eventually disappeared without a trace.
Soon, apart from the existing dust and grime, no trace of blood could be found on the ground of the alley.
The blue bottle was then capped and put away.
Then, Lu Mingfei reached out again and gently pinched the air—two thin, white cards appeared out of thin air between his fingers.
The card's material is as smooth and warm as jade, and the front is printed with an extremely exquisite pattern:
A young elven girl with pointed ears and wearing a loose robe was pouting and reluctantly handing over the magic book in her hand.
The patterns are so lifelike, they seem to possess some kind of strange power.
The number of times it has been used is marked below the image: 3/3.
"Huh, there are elves too?" Lu Mingfei thought to himself, but his actions didn't stop at all.
He pointed the two cards face up at Zero, who was not far away, and whispered clearly, "Activate!"
"Whoosh!" The two cards emitted fine white, sand-like particles of light, gently and swiftly enveloping Zero's entire body.
These light particles swept past Zero's clothes, hair, and bare skin at extremely high speeds.
In less than three seconds, the light particles quietly dissipated.
Zero looks completely refreshed!
Not only did all the bloodstains disappear without a trace, but even the dust on the corners of her clothes vanished completely. Her body seemed to be enveloped in an invisible cleaning field, becoming bright and clean as new, even with an unreal, crystalline quality.
"Holy crap, awesome!" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, the direct and thorough effect was truly shocking.
He immediately turned the card towards himself: "Activate!"
The same white dust particles instantly enveloped him.
The light spots dispersed the next second, and Lu Mingfei looked down to examine them:
The clothes were so clean they looked like they had just been taken out of a professional dry cleaner; even the dust stains that had rubbed against the corners of the wall and the dirt that might have been between the fingers had completely disappeared!
I felt as refreshed as if I had just taken a hot bath.
"This is simply a miracle!" Lu Mingfei exclaimed sincerely again, carefully putting the card back into his account.
Golden eyes swept sharply across every corner of the dimly lit alleyway.
"Thank goodness, there are no security cameras!" He breathed a sigh of relief.
As for surveillance cameras, there should only be ones on the streets they just passed, but that doesn't matter.
