Chapter 445: Chapter 285: The Exquisite Butcher Carves... a Person?

When a store appeared in the middle of nowhere.

Most people probably wouldn’t venture in unless absolutely necessary.

In such a place, far removed from the ordinary world, moral and legal constraints were somewhat diminished, and entering recklessly could make it difficult to ensure one’s own safety.

Moreover, it was now the middle of the night.

What might happen was even more unpredictable.

However, for Chen Yun, there was really no need to consider all this.

Unless the repair shop was crammed with a hundred heavy infantry brigades and a Tsar Bomb, with space-based kinetic weapons aimed at it from above.

Otherwise, the chances of encountering danger were slim.

Naturally, such defenses were impossible here.

In Chen Yun’s Transparent World Perception, the three people here didn’t carry any weapons.

It was just an auto repair shop with some common pneumatic tools, welding tools, wrenches, physics crowbars, and the like.

Without even an intercontinental missile.

What could be a threat?

So, Chen Yun arrived at the front of the repair shop, holding his dog with curiosity.

The open door of the shop.

The dim light spilled over him, but the busy man apparently hadn’t noticed his arrival yet.

Chen Yun stood silently at the doorway, observing this strange scene.

The busy figure was immersed in his work, completely unaware that Chen Yun was standing at the doorway watching him.

The man’s fingers deftly manipulated the mechanical parts in his hands, occasionally looking up at an old wall clock in a corner before continuing his work.

Chen Yun noticed that whenever the sound of metal clashing arose, the man would pause slightly, as if listening to see if the noises met his expectations.

Under the 700-meter range of his Transparent World Perception.

Even though it was now dark.

Chen Yun could still see everything in the repair shop clearly.

Besides the busy man.

The other two men were fast asleep in the room next door.

In the room next to the repair shop where the two were sleeping.

It seemed stocked with a fair amount of water and food, clearly also serving as a convenience store.

It didn’t take much thought to realize.

That the water and food here, even the car repairs, were likely to be expensive.

But considering the cost and scarcity of setting up a shop here, as long as it wasn’t outrageously expensive, it would be within the realm of normal.

For now, it couldn’t be said to be a black shop.

As he pondered.

Finally.

After an inadvertent glance at the reflection on a tool in hand, the man in front of him suddenly turned around.

A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes.

He saw Chen Yun standing at the doorway, obviously surprised by the unexpected visit.

The middle of the night, in a deserted area, a suddenly appearing man.

When these elements came together, even he was instinctively startled.

"Ah... when did you get here?"

The man stood up in surprise, gripping the wrench in his hand tightly.

Clearly, it gave him a greater sense of security.

At the same time, he emitted an intense aura of vigilance.

Chen Yun smiled slightly and did not immediately respond.

He walked into the shop with his dog, looking around at the rather worn equipment and scattered parts.

"I just got here."

Chen Yun said calmly after approaching the man.

This caused the man to involuntarily swallow.

In this remote, deserted area, encountering a stranger in the middle of the night was indeed enough to make anyone uneasy.

But looking at Chen Yun in front of him and the dog in his arms, and remembering he was not alone but had two people with him, he became a bit bolder.

Perhaps... another big, easy target?

The man pulled up a smile, seeming somewhat relaxed.

He extended his hand to introduce himself:

"I’m Li Ming, the owner of this place."

"Do you need any help?"

While feigning politeness outwardly, Li Ming did not hesitate to covertly press a hidden button on the table behind him.

Chen Yun was not deceived.

With his Transparent World Perception, he not only saw the man’s slight movement but also noticed the two men in the next room being awakened by the quiet alarm the button triggered.

But he didn’t call it out.

Instead, he said with curiosity, "I didn’t expect to find a car repair shop here. Do you often have customers?"

Unlike Li Ming’s self-introduction.

He didn’t offer his own name in return.

Because after looking around, he had already noticed some unusual aspects of the place.

If he used his extra-dimensional sense of smell.

He would notice a scent of human blood on the wrench in Li Ming’s hand.

According to the specific smell.

The traces of blood that had been left did not belong to any of the three people here.

Considering the intensity of the blood’s odor.

It was unlikely to be from a few drops spilled from a minor wound; more likely, the entire wrench had been drenched in blood.

This wrench must have been used as a weapon.

The most important thing was.

The deadly amount of blood odor on this wrench did not belong to just one person.

Clearly, the soul ring on this wrench was not singular.

Thus, this place was very likely a black shop.

It did indeed fit Chen Yun’s stereotype of an outpost in the middle of nowhere.

What could be a better way to pass some time?

Chen Yun pondered.

The man in front of him, Li Ming, also began to reply:

"Not often, especially not this late."

"But we always keep the light on for those who need help."
