Leaving the forest, the secretary came to a nearby small town to rest.

Walking to a small restaurant, he ordered some food and ate.

Just after eating for a while, a big man suddenly walked in from the outside.

After getting the consent of the shopkeeper, he stood in the middle of the hall and shouted loudly.

"Excuse me, everyone, please listen to me."

"I'm from Faye Village. There has been a strange theft in the village recently. I hope you can help us solve it."

However, after he finished speaking, none of the people sitting there were willing to talk to him.

In this era where people die all the time, it is no longer easy to take care of yourself, let alone worry about others.

Originally, the secretary didn't care about this kind of thing.

But then, a few words came into his ears.

From the chats at the tables next to him, the Secretary heard some rumors about the strange things in Faye Village.

Someone said that he once saw a figure running across the wasteland holding a cow's leg.

It is also said that his cousin's eldest cousin's third uncle once met a beautiful woman in the fields near the village.

What's more, he said that he once saw patterns in the night sky that he had never seen before.

Everyone's story is different, and dozens of rumors are intertwined, making it difficult to tell the truth.

But the secretary found several key points from it.

Beautiful women, food, strange patterns.

According to his deduction, the woman was probably a ghost.

It's just that she doesn't know why, she doesn't feed on living people, but instead does this kind of thing.

Stealing corpses?

A possibility appeared in his mind, and the secretary couldn't believe it.

"It can't be such a coincidence."

With a mutter in his heart, he then stood up and walked towards the big man.

Seeing that someone was interested in this matter, the big man's dark face was full of joy, and he immediately told the secretary all the strange things.

It's basically similar to what I heard before, in general, many people found that their dead animals had been stolen by others.

Whenever they wanted to chase, they always felt sleepy for a while, and then passed out.

A few days later, in the nearby wasteland, the bones of some stolen animals were found.

After telling the secretary about the matter, the big man hurriedly asked if he would like to help them.

While thinking, the voice of the system suddenly entered the secretary's mind.

"Drip, the villagers have sent you a request, do you accept it?"

"accept."

After accepting it, the Secretary also received the specific information of the mission.

Task: Go to Faye Village and uncover the true face of the Thieves.

Upon receiving this news, the secretary narrowed his eyes slightly.

Somewhat different from previous missions, this mission did not clearly state that he needed to kill the ghost.

The premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger, and after paying the bill, he set off towards the village.

After spending half a day, the secretary came to the village that the strong man had mentioned.

From the mouth of a villager, I learned the approximate location of the strange incident.

On the wasteland in the northwest of the village, near a cemetery.

As the distance continued to shorten, the Secretary felt that the surrounding temperature had dropped a little.

There seemed to be a unique smell in the air.

Although the smell is very light, the Secretary still firmly remembers its unique fragrance.

In his memory, there seems to be only one ghost who uses fragrance as his ability.

But in order to prevent another possibility, the secretary was still prepared.

If the other party showed hostility towards him, he would cut off the other party's head in an instant.

After a while, he arrived at the wasteland next to the cemetery.

The first thing I saw was the animal bones that could be seen everywhere on the ground.

Skull, leg bones, sternum, forearm bones.

It seemed that the situation was a little more serious than what the brawny man said.

After a little inspection, the Secretary found some information from a bone.

Although very subtle, some bite marks were found from above.

Picked up a ball of mud, and then paste it on the bone.

In this way, the secretary made a relatively simple model of tooth marks.

From this dental impression model, he got a lot of useful information.

First of all, the area of ​​this tooth mark is relatively small, and there is a high probability that it is a woman's tooth.

Secondly, among these tooth marks, there are four darker tooth marks.

Ordinary people may be confused when they see this place, and even wonder if they have made a mistake.

But for the secretary, it was something that he was not familiar with.

There is no doubt that this is the tooth mark of a ghost.

Moreover, she is also a female ghost.

Consistent with his previous guess, the secretary's sixth sense told him that he was very close to the truth.

After judging that the thief was a female ghost, the secretary carefully looked at the degree of bite on each bone.

According to the depth, location, and lingering smell, he found that the time when these bones were discarded was regular.

Every once in a while, a few extra bones pop out.

This time is about seven days.

Counting the time, five days have passed since the last theft.

In other words, in about two days, that female ghost who stole will come here again!

"Two days, let me see if it's you."

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, the secretary returned to the village and settled down temporarily.

At dusk the next day, he quietly came here again.

After jumping onto a tree and choosing a suitable location, he hid his figure in the darkness.

There is only one pair of eyes, silently watching every move of the outside world.

The sun was slowly setting, and the moon began to move in the black clothes.

Soon, there was a sound of discovery in the village.

Listen carefully, there are human shouts, rapid panting, and the sound of various metals colliding with each other.

Just at this time, the wonderful fragrance in the air suddenly became stronger.

In the sky above the village, some strange patterns appeared faintly.

Soon, the noise in the village disappeared.

Not long after, there was the sound of walking from that direction.

One step, two steps, three steps...

Judging from the sound, the weight of the visitor was not too heavy, so that he hardly made much noise.

But to the secretary's ears, these sounds were no different from beating gongs and drums.

Soon, the visitor came to the tree where the secretary was hiding, and seemed to be resting.

Just when the other party thought he was safe, the secretary did a backflip and jumped off the tree.

The moment he landed, the opponent's appearance was clearly imprinted in his eyes.

At this moment, he knew that the guess in his heart was correct.

With a slight smile, the secretary said.

"Long time no see, Miss Zhushi."
