Chapter 3: Captured

aged man.The middle-aged man let out a cold snort and walked towards Wang Lin, thinking to himself, “This kid won’t think I’m an idiot, will he He’s made such a fool of himself.”"Grass! No way, I have...The next morning, Wang Lin was woken up promptly at 6:30 by the alarm clock. After freshening up, he set off for work.

After arriving at the destination, I played on my phone and slept wherever I could find a place. After everyone else arrived, we started the morning meeting.

It's still the old-fashioned way of taking attendance, assigning tasks. Wang Lin was bored out of his mind, staring blankly. "Alright, that's the arrangement for today, go unload the truck," the supervisor waved to everyone and turned to leave.

The unloading of goods, the carrying of boxes (needs to carry express boxes onto the truck, unloading picks up express from the truck and puts it in the box, then carries the box to the sorting area), sorting is sorted, everyone does their own job.

Wang Lin was in charge of sorting today. A few people formed a circle, chatting as they sorted. Suddenly, Lao Liu, from the adjacent area, poked Wang Lin and whispered, "Hey hey, Wood, did you hear Someone died at our neighboring station yesterday. Emma, that's terrible."

"I haven't heard about it. When did he die yesterday What was the cause of death" The other colleagues also looked at Lao Liu with a puzzled expression, waiting for him to explain.

When Lao Liu saw that everyone didn't know, he immediately perked up. He used his fist to cover his mouth and pretended to cough, then sat up straight.

Yesterday afternoon, someone at the neighboring station was delivering packages. Suddenly, they seemed to have seen something, their expression turned terrified, and their eyes were fixed on a certain direction.

Lao Liu looked around at everyone, finding that they were all listening to him, which made him even more comfortable. Then he continued, "And although the person was terrified, he didn't run away. He just stared straight ahead and didn't make a sound."

And his hands were constantly choking himself, until he choked himself to death. None of the onlookers dared to step forward, and it was finally the neighborhood security guard who called 120 (emergency services) and took him away. They say he died before reaching the hospital.

"Grass, no way This is too evil You're messing with us in broad daylight" Another colleague said incredulously.

"It shouldn't be a ghost, right It's broad daylight, and it's the middle of the afternoon when the yang energy is strongest. Plus, there are plenty of people around. If it were a ghost, wouldn't that be a bit too bold"

"Suddenly, Da Yao, who was beside us, interjected, 'It's the 21st century, we should believe in science. Ghosts and monsters don't exist at all. By the way, do you think it could be the Awakened Ones who did this'"

What you're saying is contradictory. Can science explain the existence of awakened beings

“Well, I don't know. After all, ghosts and monsters have never been confirmed to exist, but Awakened beings have already been proven to be real.”

Lao Liu, who had always been bold, suddenly said, "Why don't we go and have a look" He looked around and continued, "Maybe if we go, we might be able to awaken unexpectedly."

Hearing this, Wang Lin's heart moved. Yes, perhaps if he went there, he could use the remaining energy to induce my awakening ability.

The big Yao beside him shook his head at Lao Liu, "If you want to go, go ahead. Maybe the murderer is still there, waiting for the next victim to take the bait. I'm not going, I haven't lived enough yet."

Some people agreed, some disagreed. In the end, a few who wanted to go arranged a time and place. Old Liu wanted to bring more people and started persuading them, "Let's go together! In this world, brave people survive while cowards perish. Let's take a gamble, maybe we can turn bicycles into motorcycles!"

Dayao scoffed, "A bicycle doesn't necessarily become a motorcycle, it could even turn into an hearse. Anyway, I wouldn't go even if you paid me."

Lao Liu smiled wryly and ignored him, continuing to brag with the people beside him.

Half an hour later, the sorting was finished and everyone returned to their respective areas to begin a second round of sorting (putting items from the same place together, and arranging office supplies from top to bottom).

Then, scanning, packing, and loading the truck. Lao Liu finished loading his truck the fastest because he had the fewest packages.

As he was leaving, he reminded me again, “Don't forget 11:50 AM,” and without waiting for a response, he slammed the gas pedal and sped off.

At half past eleven in the morning, Wang Lin arrived at the scene of the incident early. He parked his car at the entrance of the residential building and walked inside. He reached the downstairs of Building No. 7.

He looked around, making sure no one was nearby, then immediately closed his eyes and tried to sense his surroundings. Unfortunately, besides feeling the wind, he sensed nothing else.

"Grass, what's the situation here I just barely woke up, and I don't even have any powers. Ah ah, so annoying! I refuse to believe it, I'll keep going."

Two minutes later, Wang Lin sat on the steps staring blankly, like a wilted eggplant. "Oh no, could it be that I'm really incapable"

He got up, turned his head and walked away. At that moment, someone in the shadows picked up a walkie-talkie and said, "Stop him!"

Then a figure on the third floor jumped directly down, "Stop! Don't move, put your hands on your head."

Wang Lin was taken aback and, turning his head, saw a man with a scar holding something strange and pointed it at him. Based on over twenty years of life experience, Wang Lin judged that this thing could kill him.

He didn't dare to make any other movements, very cooperatively holding his head with both hands and squatting down. There was no way around it. It took so much effort to wake up, but life hadn't improved yet. He liked eating meat, but he didn't like eating peanuts.

Wang Lin lowered his head, listening to the footsteps quickly approaching. "I'm from the Awakener Association. What brings you here"

Wang Lin was so scared that his whole body trembled, he didn't hear what the man said at all, "That... I just came to take a look."

"Liar! I noticed you the moment you arrived. You were acting shifty, with suspicious eyes. One minute you were closing your eyes and enjoying yourself, the next you were sighing dramatically. You said you just came to take a look"

"Now I suspect you're involved in the murder, come with me!" He pressed a gun to her head with one hand and placed a silver bracelet on Wang Lin's wrist with the other.

Wang Lin was even more panicked now, shouting in terror, "No, no, uncle, I really just came to take a look. I only just woke up yesterday, but I've been clueless about my abilities."

"I heard this morning about a very strange murder here, so I came to try my luck, see if any lingering energy could help me discover my abilities."

“Uncle, please don't grab me, please don't grab me! I'm just a delivery guy, I won't come again, never again! Please don't grab me, I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child at home, the whole family relies on me. Please spare me this time.”

Even Lian Wanglin himself didn't realize it, his speech was incredibly fast, yet clear and logical. The man before him was completely dumbfounded.

After a moment's pause, he looked at Wang Lin and smiled, "Don't be nervous, young man. You just look suspicious. If you're truly innocent, we would never wrongly accuse you. Rest assured."

Wang Lin looked at the ferocious smile squeezed out by Scarface and couldn't help but panic even more. "I'm screwed! Falling into the hands of such a ferocious big man, what good can come of this"

But the situation was beyond his control, the bracelet was already on, he had no room to resist.

"I'll walk with you, don't pull on my bracelet, it hurts!" Wang Lin grinned and said.

You go ahead, I'll follow you.

"Alright then." This person didn't give Wang Lin any chance to escape. At this moment, he had accepted his fate and shuffled towards the entrance of the building.

"Come on! Don't play games." Just be innocent, and I promise you won't have any trouble.

Perhaps the words really worked. Hearing this, Wang Lin no longer hesitated and cooperated by getting into the car with the big man.ently, "Boy, how's your cultivation going recently Cultivation of martial arts can be done slowly, the most important thing is the refinement of willpower and inner path.""Don't worry, I know. As for...
