Chapter 22 Tragedy Doll

"???"

The amount of information was a bit overwhelming, and the superintendents were stunned. Weren't we talking about child abuse just now? Why was the steering wheel suddenly out of control?

"Ahem!" Xia Ren didn't expect that she would suddenly self-destruct, so she quickly stepped on the brakes and continued: "It's not that kind of disease, but MSBP, Munchausen Syndrome. Patients usually make it up, or do it through deliberate harm. To create the child's illness in exchange for medical attention, and then take good care of it, giving a caring impression, or gaining sympathy from outsiders. In essence, it is just to satisfy one's own desires. Li Xin was not frail and sick since she was a child, she was injured It’s not an accident, it’s caused by your intentional injury.”

"What evidence do you have?"

Sun Aihong's face turned pale and she was already panicking.

"Of course there is evidence. The watermelon you served this morning was mixed with other things, and your daughter started to have diarrhea after eating it. I can testify to this, and we can also find out through surveillance. This is only one aspect. The most important thing is your daughter's own mouth. Telling testimony!”

"Xinxin has had bad gastrointestinal problems since she was a child. It was because she pestered me to eat watermelon that I gave it to her. Xinxin, do you think that's right?"

She looked at her daughter on the hospital bed for help, but she didn't obey as expected.

The daughter shook her head firmly this time.

"Mom is a bad person."

Sun Aihong was confused and her thoughts went blank.

How could her daughter who had never resisted her...

Xia Ren then added: "And you abused not only Li Xin, but also another adopted child, Li Xuan. Regarding what you did to Li Xuan, I think I can just ask around in your community. clear."

"If you still don't admit it, go to a psychiatrist and see a doctor. They can also find out whether you have this disease."

This sentence is purely bluffing. Munchausen syndrome is difficult to detect, and a diagnosis requires a long period of observation. It cannot be known by just visiting a psychiatrist.

But Sun Aihong didn't know.

"I have no choice... I really love Xinxin, you have to believe me."

At this point, the truth is clear.

Several superintendents present looked at Xia Ren quite speechless.

This guy accidentally stole all their lines.

Still, quite handsome.

The superintendents took Sun Aihong away for further investigation. Before leaving, they asked for Xia Ren's phone number.

"Mr. Gao Le, if we have any questions later, we will contact you. Please keep the phone open."

No problem, Xia Ren nodded very politely and gave them Ping Shiqing's number.

After everyone left, Xia Ren turned to look at the hospital bed.

Li Xin was unconscious, and instead, the infected Li Xuan was standing beside the bed, looking at him quietly.

"There's nothing left to miss, right?"

"No more, thank you."

The little boy took one last look at his sister next to him, and then bowed to him.

[The infected body has weak resistance and can be sealed. Should it be sealed? 】

【yes! 】

At the sure moment, several tentacles stretched out and wrapped around Li Xuan. The latter disappeared before he could resist.

Looking at the air in front of him, Xia Ren's heart was slightly touched.

Like Mrs. Liu last time, Li Xuan didn't know the identity of his infected body. From an emotional point of view, he was no different from the real Li Xuan.

"This is the first type of infectious body, but what about the second type? There are also the following three types and aberrations..."

Xia Ren feels that his understanding of pollutants is slowly changing.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully sealing a type of infected body. The task has been completed. 】

[Sequestration level: a type of infected body. Optional redemption items:

Increase pollution resistance*1

Eliminate 5/100 of own pollution value

Increase own pollution value by 5/100

Earn 50 achievement points, which can be exchanged for important items in the store. 】

"Is the option to increase one's own pollution value by 5/100 serious? This is the second time it has appeared."

Xia Ren doesn't understand the purpose of the system. Is it to make up the word count?

During this mission, he was contaminated. The infection value was currently 2/100. It would be too extravagant to consume a system reward for this infection value. Without much hesitation, he chose to redeem 50 achievement points.

[Congratulations to the host for receiving 50 achievement points. Current achievement points: 50. 】

He was about to call up the store page when the system suddenly gave a series of prompts:

[This mission is judged to be extremely dangerous and can threaten the life of the host, so a special reward will be given: the Mask of the Faceless Man. 】

[Mask of the Faceless Man, Category: Contained Object.

Item introduction: A mask that deprives the target of its existence, made by the Apostle of the Abyss, the Faceless One.

Ability: When used, the wearer will be able to have an identity that is not his or her own. Note that if you wear it for too long, you will be contaminated. 】

[Warning, clues to the contained object have been found: Tragedy Doll.

Known information: "From the moment I was born, everything I saw was tragedy. I don't know whether my existence brought misfortune to people, or whether the unfortunate people took the initiative to accept me. In order to find the answer, I kept turning around in people's hands. , verified one by one, but the result always ends in tragedy."]

"Holy shit, the doll is actually a containment object?"

Xia Ren turned his head sharply and found that at some point, the prince-like puppet disappeared together with Li Xuan.

Only then did he remember the reminder that the system had given him before. The sentence "In order to protect the host, information related to this mission is not available for the time being." It turned out to be information about the containment objects, but didn't the system encourage him to obtain more containment objects? How could it really be true? Did you get scared when you met?

[Sometimes, the less you know, the longer you can live. 】

"..." Xia Ren.

Okay, you have the final say on the system.

Xia Ren's ability to adapt is getting stronger and stronger now. Since he said it was for his own good, he accepted it calmly.

The tragic doll disappeared, and he could only wait for the next time he met the other party. However, thanks to it, Xia Ren got an additional containment object in addition to achievement points this time. It was an unexpected surprise. You know His biggest headache now is his identity.

Since the Mask of the Faceless Man did not appear in his hands immediately, it meant that he was at home, and he had to digest the harvest slowly. The hospital was obviously not a suitable place. He was about to leave when he suddenly realized another problem.

Looking at Li Xin sleeping soundly on the hospital bed, Xia Ren hesitated.

She has been staying with the tragic dolls and infected bodies for a long time, and she must have been contaminated.

"System, can you check her pollution value for me?"

【Can. 】

Before the text faded, Xia Ren saw two tentacles extending from the back of his head again, reaching towards Li Xin on the hospital bed.

[Target pollution value: 7/100, pollution resistance: 0, sanity slightly distorted. 】

Xia Ren gritted his teeth and felt a little painful.

"Use anti-pollution fluid."

As soon as he finished speaking, a transparent bottle the size of a fingertip appeared in the palm of his hand. Inside the bottle were a few drops of suspicious light green liquid, which exuded a faint fluorescence in the dark environment.

He uncorked the bottle and when he was about to pour it, he hesitated and poured only a drop on Li Xin's lips.

After all, I only have this bottle, so I have to find a way to use it sparingly.

[Target contamination has been eliminated. 】

"It really works."

Xia Ren breathed a sigh of relief.

He then struggled for a while between himself and the bottle with only two drops of anti-pollution liquid left, but still couldn't give up.

"The pollution value is only 2/100, and there are no negative effects. Let's use it together when we save more."

As for whether Sun Aihong was contaminated or not, it was not within his scope of consideration.

The sky outside had begun to get dark, and Xia Ren couldn't wait to rush home. Sure enough, he found something extra in the study.

This is a pure white, oval-shaped object similar to a plate. One side of it is deeply sunken, and the other side looks extremely smooth. Not to mention the openings for the eyes, there is not even a hole the size of a pinhole.

"Is this the Faceless Mask?"

If it weren't for the special feel, he would have thought it was a unique fruit bowl.

Xia Ren tried to pick up the mask and put it on, and sure enough, his entire face was covered tightly, and his vision was dark.

"Wait, this feeling is so strange."

He found that his body became much lighter, as if he was about to float.

He wanted to take off the mask, but found that it was firmly attached to his face, and he couldn't pull it off no matter how hard he tried!

In an instant, he felt many spike-like things protruding from the edge of the mask, and they were piercing into his head along his cheeks!

"Ouch! It hurts, it hurts! Ah - it hurts, it hurts."

He screamed in pain, and at the same time he stepped back and fell down on the chair. Unspeakable pain surged up, and his vision went dark and he passed out.

Do I have to stop being a human being? JOJO!

This was his last thought before he passed out.

…

…

"hiss--"

Taking a deep breath, Xia Ren woke up and opened his eyes at the same time.

He found that he was standing, and his shoulders seemed to be weighed down by something, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

This is not the point.

He raised his head slightly. In front of him was a man slumped on a chair. He seemed to be unconscious or dead.

This man's face was wearing a pure white, integrated mask.

It seems like he did it on his own.

However, this is not the point.

Xia Ren stretched out his hand and lowered his head, the first thing his eyes saw.

He rubbed his eyes dully to make sure he saw it correctly.

but,

The issue is,

Isn’t this thing only for women? ? ?

Don't worry, it's not a transfiguration article.
