I heard that I’m super fierce - Chapter 80
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
“It’s like this.”
The strange man was sitting on the upholstered sofa that was cleared out of the office, and the materials that had been scattered there were gathered together randomly and stacked on the small round table next to the armrest. He continued with the same open and unhurried smile on his face as he had when he was outside the door.
“I am supported by Mr. Victor, just like you,” He said naturally. “He said that he had handed over the investigation of the dagger to this firm. He also heard that I was very knowledgeable about Egypt, so he asked me to come see if I can help you.”
Lin You exchanged glances with the two teammates.
Victor Norton, Gu Heng’s client who inherited his uncle’s estate.
The man introduced himself as “Waksi”, an archaeologist who specialized in Egypt. Of course, she knew a little bit, but Lin You did not show her true doubts, and the reaction of opening the door pretended to be normal—surprised and a little confused, just like treating anyone who would make trouble on the street. It was like a passerby who knocked on this door after such a mess.
She hadn’t had time to sidebar with the two of them, but she felt Gu Heng guess something.
Geng Qinghe…Geng Qinghe must have believed it, but it was a little strange that the other party came to the door at this moment.
Lin You sometimes felt that although this silly sweetie often believed what others said, he still had a way to obscure the facts. Moreover, precisely because he was a true believer, most of the time, letting him follow the question would not cause the other party’s suspicion.
Just like now.
“I saw all the passers-by hiding.”
Geng Qinghe said: “You actually came here on your own initiative…”
“Waksi” had obviously prepared the corresponding rhetoric.
“I am mentally prepared.”
He smiled.
“Mr. Victor told me about the dangers. I saw it from a distance—to be honest, I investigated this and knew what a group of people were doing underground. It was not surprising.”
“Right,” he leaned forward and asked with interest, “Is the dagger still in your hands?”
Finally, it arrived at the topic.
His forward posture showed that he was eager to know the answer to this question. The look on his face was quite ordinary, just watching them intently with his eyes, and that look—Lin You faintly felt that there was a light that was not like a human being.
“Yes.”
She replied with a smile, and the skull hanging on her waist was consciously silent.
“But we are about to find Victor again,” Lin You said, “I have something to ask him.”
“Oh? I’ll go with you.”
Waksi spoke as naturally as flowing water. He smiled and got up from the sofa.
“I came here by bus. Is the car on the road yours? I don’t know if it will be enough for me.”
Although he didn’t doubt his words much, Geng Qinghe still hesitated whether he should let him act with them. While everyone was going downstairs one by one, he quietly approached Lin You and whispered: “Sister You—”
“I know what you want to ask, it’s okay.” Lin You didn’t explain much. After all, she didn’t know how much Nyarlathotep—or, Nyah—could hear. “Just do it.”
She was very curious about what he was selling. The only thing she was sure of was that he was most likely thinking of how to get the dagger from them, and was worried that they would be suspicious, so they would stab him with the blade.
She didn’t want to step into the other party’s trap, nor did she want to tear him up so quickly. At the same time, she was a little bit angry at them being chased by the so-called “falcons” for a long time, so she said she might as well find a chance to get revenge.
There was no longer any shadow of the Terror Hunters whirling in the sky, and they walked to the car. The roof of the car was scratched by the claws of those monsters, and it almost turned into a convertible without them realizing. Fortunately, it didn’t seem to have much influence on the function.
Gu Heng was about to drive, and unexpectedly someone grabbed the door handle first.
His fingers stopped in the air and he looked at Lin You. The latter met his gaze and glanced vaguely at the man who called himself Waksi.
Knowing what she was suggesting, Gu Heng looked away and coughed to cover up his smile. He let go of his hand as if nothing was wrong, and silently changed positions with Lin You—she sat in the driver’s seat, and he turned to open the rear door. Geng Qinghe was a little confused, but he decided to get in with the latter.
With that experience in Silent Hill, Lin You became much more familiar with it. She spun the steering wheel and slid into the highway. There were no cars on the road, but it may be because of the storm just now, and occasional pedestrians can be seen pointing and talking about something. Of course, they didn’t care about this either.
Gu Heng occasionally pointed at the road. Generally speaking, the car was still driving smoothly on the road.
For now.
“Bang!”
The sudden brake came so unexpectedly that Geng Qinghe was driven forward by inertia. He rushed straight to the back of the seat in front of him. Even with a cushion, the sudden impact made him a little dizzy. He looked to the side in horror but found that Gu Heng seemed to have been prepared and grabbed the armrest above the window ahead of time to stabilize his body.
Geng Qinghe: “…?????”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
Fortunately, he was not the worst.
That loud “bang” was exactly the sound of someone’s head hitting the glass.
The man sitting in the front passenger’s seat still kept his head forward.
He lowered his head. His body was trembling slightly, and no one could see his expression clearly.
Waksi—No, Nyah, was on the verge of an explosion.
Damn human beings! If it weren’t for the dagger in their hands, he wouldn’t be playing any identity-concealing games here now, let alone bearing the anger. And this body—
He gritted his teeth and thought.
Maybe something went wrong during the summoning, or maybe it was because the seal was not completely lifted. Although the form of the true body can exert considerable power, it appeared in a human form but not as agile as before. And he didn’t like to use abilities in the human body unless he had to, so—
A round, red mark was knocked on his forehead.
“Hey, sorry, sorry,” the guy who made his forehead hit the front glass of the car said hurriedly, “I’m not very skilled, there is a puddle ahead.”
—There really was a puddle, but she deliberately waited for the time to come and hurriedly stepped on the brake.
“…It’s okay.”
Nyah slowly raised his head and forced a smile, “I don’t mind at all.”
It’s all fake if you don’t mind.
When he got the dagger, she would be the first to die.
In fact, a certain unknown Mr. Nyarlathotep could not bear it either. The timing of the brakes was always unexpected. When his forehead kissed the windshield for the third time, he finally protested intolerably.
“Let me drive,” he smiled.
Lin You felt a bit of regret that she couldn’t find a reason to retaliate against him with goodbye stitches. She said she didn’t know whether to be surprised that the ancient gods could actually drive or to have the opportunity to let Nyarlathotep drive them in a lifetime. It was really an honor.
The two changed seats, and Lin You was about to sit in when she suddenly saw a shop not far away.
“Wait,” she said immediately, “Wait a moment, I’ll be back soon.”
……what?
Geng Qinghe watched her walk into the store, and when she came out, she was holding something bulging in her arms. It wasn’t until she got closer that they saw that the big bag was covered with a small bag. She bought a pile of paper bags.
Geng Qinghe: “Sister You, you…”
“I promised it before.” Lin You said, “I have a place where I can buy things normally. If I can’t put it in my backpack, I will put it in the car first, and talk about it later.”
She had her own plans.
They were not far from the client’s house, and within ten minutes, they had already reached the gate.
The car came to a halt slowly—his driving skills turned out to be pretty good.
It’s just that the wrought iron gate was open, and the lock hung slantingly on the side, looking like traces of forced entry.
Everyone’s heart sank.
“It looks like someone has attacked Mr. Victor,” someone took the initiative to speak in the next second, and Waksi sighed, “I’ll stay and watch the car. Go and see. If the situation is not right, come back.”
—Rather, isn’t it you who is most likely to attack him?
Lin You glanced at him with a faint smile and drew the card from the cardholder.
It’s not known what kind of plan Nyah had to blame his actions on others. She always felt that his purpose of coming here was not simple, staying beside their only means of action, the intention was even more…
Maybe she should hold it back.
“I have a way to call for help,” she raised the card between her fingers, “Come on.”
The thin and tall pale white figure appeared in place.
Waksi raised his eyebrows imperceptibly.
Lin You picked up the pile of paper bags and stuffed them into 096’s hands.
“These are for you. You stay here to help watch the car.” She turned to Wax and deliberately said, “Be careful, don’t let its paper bag fall, or it will be very sad.”
Before she finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the villa in the inner courtyard with the other two.
They walked away.
Nyarlathotep, disguised as Waksi, put his smile away.
He turned to SCP-096, who was still standing blankly on the spot, looking towards the direction where Lin You and others had left. It held large and small paper bags tightly in its arms, with one on its head, and it seemed that it would not resist no matter what was done.
Nyah evoked a slight arc of a smirk. He didn’t plan to let them go back alive. He was waiting for them to go in one by one. And before that, the guy in front of him was the first target.
Since this guy didn’t have a dagger, he could do it at any time. But what Lin You said before leaving was like a feather, spurring his curiosity vigorously.
The favorite hobby of Nyarlathotep, the foreign god, was to see how humans fall into fear and despair. SCP-096, two meters in height…can be regarded as a humanoid creature, well, it is still within his range. If you just take off this thing, you can make it sad…
He was looking forward to it.
So, before killing it—
“Come on.” He sneered.
“Let me see what you look—”
He tore off the paper bag wrapped around SCP-096’s head.
