Chapter 3 Murder in the Dark

"There are two rewards, you can choose one. There is no need to worry about anything, just choose the talent..."

Chen Yuan looked at the reward list, stopped, and thought to himself.

As for the Fiery Knife Technique, as long as you know which day a fight will take place and you have a little luck, you should be able to find it out of the corpse.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you can't get the Fiery Knife Technique in the next simulation. The value of a Fiery Knife Technique is far less than the continuous development ability brought by the white talent Big Stomach King.

"System, I choose ②. White talent·Big Eater."

Chen Yuan made a choice and said in his heart.

"Ding, the reward selection was successful and is being distributed..."

The system voice sounded.

Then, Chen Yuan felt that some changes had occurred in his body. He felt inexplicably hungry and wanted to eat.

In response, Chen Yuan quickly quickened his pace and walked towards his home.

After returning to his home, Chen Yuan began to cook for himself. This development was exactly the same as the previous life simulation.

"Speaking of which, what does location simulation look like? It seems like you can summon a map..."

While Chen Yuan was cooking, he was thoughtful and tried to summon a map.

Then, a flat map appeared in front of him.

"This map seems to be able to zoom in and out, which is a bit interesting. However, it seems that there are only maps of Chen County at present, and no maps of other regions."

"Does the scope of this map change based on my location or my strength? It seems that there are still many places that need to be explored."

Chen Yuan was curious and used two fingers to operate on the map, with many thoughts flashing through his mind.

"Hey, there are two places to sign in."

At this time, Chen Yuan found two question marks on the map, and his eyes couldn't help but brighten.

He zoomed in on the map, trying to find the specific location to sign in.

"It's a coincidence. One is not far from my door; the other is at the Yulan Market in the east of the city. It's a bit far. Let's wait until tomorrow. We can just buy some fish to eat."

Chen Yuan looked at the two sign-in locations with a smile on his face.

There is a large river near Chen County and the fishery is prosperous.

For this reason, fish in Chen County is quite cheap. Eating more fish to replenish the body seems to be more cost-effective than pork.

Afterwards, Chen Yuan looked at his big pot and felt that it would take some time for the rice to be cooked, so he chose to go to a nearby place to check in first.

After Chen Yuan went out, he walked for three minutes and arrived at the check-in location.

The sign-in location was in a dark alleyway, with no moonlight coming in, and it looked eerie in the deserted environment.

"No, it smells like blood."

Just as Chen Yuan was about to turn around and walk into the alleyway, he smelled some blood. His expression changed slightly, and he continued to walk forward as if nothing happened.

Knowing that there is a problem in the alleyway and still walking in it is the behavior of a fool.

Anyway, if you sign in, you won’t run away, and it will be the same if you sign in tomorrow.

After Chen Yuan left, a man in black robe walked out of the alleyway. He looked at Chen Yuan's leaving figure and wanted to take action, but when he saw the official uniform Chen Yuan was wearing and the saber at his waist, he suppressed it. thought.

Killing common people and killing officials are completely different in nature.

Even if this is just a servant, this is the case.

If Chen Yuan had just walked into the alleyway, he would definitely take action against Chen Yuan in order to prevent the incident from leaking out. But if Chen Yuan was just passing by or found something unusual and pretended not to see it, then there was no need for him to take action.

Soon, the man in black robe disappeared into the darkness and quickly left here.

After the man in black robe left, Chen Yuan's feeling like a light on his back gradually disappeared, and he broke into a cold sweat.

He knew very well that he almost died.

"Fuck, I still underestimated the chaotic times in the last years of this dynasty. Every time you go out, you will encounter a murder. It seems that it is best not to go out at night in the future, otherwise you will die without knowing how."

Chen Yuan took a deep breath and secretly made up his mind. If he didn't have enough strength, he'd better not go out at night, lest he die suddenly.

If you have a cheat like a life simulator and cannot survive for three days, you will become the most shameful time traveler.

Next, Chen Yuan changed his path and quickly returned to his home.

In order to dispel the fear in his heart and fill his stomach, Chen Yuan cooked like crazy.

At this time, Chen Yuan experienced firsthand how big his appetite was. It was enough to feed two grown men. He actually finished it all by himself, and he still felt like he was still full of food.

Soon, Chen Yuan felt warm all over his body and seemed to become stronger.

This is not an illusion, this is what is really happening.

....

The next day, when the sun was shining high, Chen Yuan passed by that street and saw a large number of people gathered around, exclaiming something.

After Chen Yuan came over, the people around him instantly moved out of the way and stared at Chen Yuan with fear on their faces.

After Chen Yuan walked into the alleyway, he saw the corpse of a female. The cause of death was that her neck was wiped.

"System, sign in."

Chen Yuan looked at the female corpse with a calm mood. He didn't feel any nausea at all. Instead, he was still in the mood to look at the sign-in question mark next to the dead body and sign in in his heart.

Chen Yuan had seen too many dead bodies in his previous life, and Chen Yuan, who had inherited his memory, was naturally used to the appearance of corpses.

"Ding, the sign-in is successful. Congratulations to the host for getting a free simulation opportunity."

The system's voice rang.

Listening to the sound of the system, the corners of Chen Yuan's mouth raised slightly.

Then, Chen Yuan pretended to be ferocious and dispersed the people, telling them not to watch the fun here.

Because of Chen Yuan's evil reputation, the people did not dare to surround him. They all withdrew from the alley and dared to wait outside.

After the people left, Chen Yuan began to skillfully touch the female corpse, hoping to find some money or secrets from her clothes.

Unfortunately, Chen Yuan only found a flat red pebble after searching for a long time.

This made Chen Yuan quite disappointed. He knew that after the murderer finished killing the people, he had already licked them all, leaving only a useless pebble.

Chen Yuan looked at the flat pebble and thought it was quite beautiful, so he put it in his pocket.

Next, Chen Yuan skillfully carried the body and walked towards the Yamen.

"Brother Chen, we have found another pretty girl. Look..."

On the way to the Yamen, three losers came over and winked at Chen Yuan.

"Don't rush to do it. I have something to do now. You can help me move the body to the Yamen first."

Chen Yuan gasped and said to the three henchmen.

"Okay."

The three losers looked at each other and took the body skillfully.

Chen Yuan came to the Yamen and after delivering the body, he began his daily patrol.

As for whether the county magistrate chose to investigate the case or just deal with it casually and bury the body, that was none of his business.
