Huan Meng Lie Ren

Chapter 122 The Down-and-Out Clown

Unconvinced, Wen Wen observed the exhibits again and again until the museum was about to close, but still found no clues.

However, there should still be a turn of events. Wen Wen planned to come again at night. There were too many people during the day, and some of his methods were inconvenient to use.

He would not have so many scruples at night.

Wen Wen prepared to touch the exhibits one by one with the Disaster Gloves. As long as the containment object was here, no matter how well it was hidden, as soon as it was touched by the Disaster Gloves, there would definitely be a reaction.

But he had no chance to touch the exhibits with his hands during the day.

When leaving, Wen Wen still looked at the exhibits with reluctance. He was very unwilling to fail to find his target.

This scene, when seen by Liao Jiaxin, changed her impression of Wen Wen.

"Perhaps he is not such a rude person, but is too obsessed with these exhibits. He said he was a great writer, and it is understandable for writers to have some quirks..."

If she met Wen Wen a few more times, perhaps she would have completed her self-suggestion.

After leaving the museum, Liao Jiaxin analyzed Wen Wen's strengths and weaknesses in her mind, planning to investigate Wen Wen's situation after returning home.

She was really eager to marry herself off. She was already 35 years old this year, and her mother nagged her every day to hurry up and get married. The gazes of those around her also made her increasingly unbearable.

It wasn't that she was desperate, but that the options she could choose from were really not many.

"Is that a person?"

Liao Jiaxin stopped her car and looked to the side of the road. A man covered in black cloth was curled up by the roadside, looking somewhat pitiful.

Normally, she would not care about people like beggars on the roadside.

Setting aside compassion, as a single woman, she had to pay attention to safety.

But this time, she looked at the figure lying on the ground, and her heart seemed to be struck. Her eyes became hazy.

It was as if the person lying on the ground was the most important person in her life.

She walked out of the car blankly, walked to the person, and reached out to help him up.

Just as she was about to touch the person, she suddenly pinched her arm, and then her expression became clear, with only panic in her eyes.

"You... what are you?"

The man used his hands to support himself, his palms covered in dark green patterns, and something seemed to be wriggling under his skin.

Then, Liao Jiaxin saw the man's face clearly. His face was covered with thick white oil paint, but this oil paint seemed to have been soaked in water, revealing large areas of skin.

From the exposed parts, this should be a very delicate man.

"What am I... I don't know. I don't even know what's wrong with me."

The man struggled to stand up and staggered towards the corner.

Liao Jiaxin, who was originally terrified, became hazy again. She walked forward, hooked her arm around the man's arm, and pulled him towards her car.

"You can't be like this, something bad will happen. Why don't you stay at my place for a while..."

As soon as she said it, Liao Jiaxin covered her mouth again. In that instant, she had lost control again.

What exactly was going on?

"I advise you to stay away from me, or I don't know what will happen."

This man was the蛊惑小丑 (Gu Hu Xiao Chou - Bewitching Clown) Grandy, who had escaped earlier. If it were in the past, an ordinary human woman like Liao Jiaxin touching him might even lead to him abusing and killing her.

But now, he had long lost such thoughts, and was even persuading Liao Jiaxin to stay away from him.

From the moment he left the sewer, he had become somewhat abnormal.

At first, only green patterns appeared on his body, which did not affect him. He could still trade with the vampire Galil and ask him to kill Wen Wen.

But later, even though he mobilized all his superpowers to fight against the green patterns, he could not hold on, which led to his current plight of lying on the street.

He knew that once he stopped resisting, he would turn into something else. This was not a change caused by a failed attempt to advance to the Assimilation Realm.

Instead, some powerful existence was remodeling him. Once the remodeling was completed, he would become something that could be controlled at will and had no self-will.

He knew what that powerful existence was.

The Great Mother!

That was what the former loss of mother, Godo, called that existence. Godo wanted Grandy to become a subordinate of that being. Grandy thought he had successfully escaped, but now it seemed he had not escaped at all.

"But... you!" For some reason, Liao Jiaxin wanted to help Grandy.

"No 'buts', you idiot, you have no idea what you are facing!" Grandy reprimanded.

Grandy knew that if he continued to resist, he would die, but this would be a release for him.

But now, the thing inside him had tempted this woman, making her help him.

Once he received her care, Grandy's situation might change unexpectedly, and then it would not be something Grandy could control.

But the current situation was that in order to resist the green patterns in his body, he was so weak that he didn't even have the strength to resist this woman!

With Grandy's reminder, Liao Jiaxin also realized that something was wrong. She let go of Grandy's hand and hurried to leave.

But at that moment, Grandy fell to the ground. He actually fainted at this time!

And the green patterns on his body flashed with a strange brilliance. Liao Jiaxin's rising vigilance instantly disappeared, and was replaced by inexplicable pity for Grandy.

The green patterns did not want Grandy to die, so Grandy could not die!

Until his mission was completed.

...

As night fell, dark clouds covered the moon, and the cold wind was bleak.

A person wearing a black robe, with dark energy burning like flames coiled around his body, stood outside the museum and watched.

He was naturally Wen Wen. For this theft operation, he planned to use this appearance, which could clear his name.

When he left, he would leave the aura of other monsters in a hidden place, so as long as Wen Wen did not court death and reveal himself, no one would think it was him.

He did not intend to wear the Disaster Prison Lord's robe in a proper occasion, but to use this form as his disguise when doing bad things.

He would do anything shameful with this identity.

He first scouted around the museum and then stood on top of a streetlight, pondering as he looked at the museum.

The entire museum had only one security guard, and this security guard was dozing off in the guardhouse, not even patrolling the museum.

"Hmm... this is a bit strange. This museum is so valuable, and it's only guarded by one security guard?"

If this security guard were diligent, it could still be explained, but the fact that he was always sitting in the guardhouse was definitely suspicious.

Wen Wen had personally investigated during the day, and there were no high-tech security measures inside the museum. It was even inferior to ordinary museums.

"Let's go in and check the situation first. If it's not right, we'll retreat immediately."
