The door of the brain pulled out the sticky glue and tilted forward silently, revealing the darkness behind it.
Even in the pitch blackness of the underground, that arch of darkness stood out.
It is very strange, so dark that it loses its depth of field, like a faint silhouette. But it also makes people subconsciously tense up, as if thousands of eyes are looking out through the darkness. As long as the viewer's eyes move slightly, it always seems that something flashes by in the depths of the darkness, and the sense of existence makes people feel startled.
The members of the Sunken Society all took a few steps back. Whether they believed in metaphysics or not, they all held their breath, their eyes drawn to the door-shaped darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, three light-colored balls appeared in the depths of darkness.
The man standing in the middle looked to be about 30 years old. He was handsome, but there was a sense of carelessness and frivolity in his eyes, which made people stay away from him. He was sturdy and wore a moist and tight flesh-pink leather jacket. He was holding two naked bodies, a man and a woman, with his two hands and pulling them out.
Although there is no light in the darkness, the colors on his body are very bright, and the details of his facial features and clothes are like flowers in the mist, giving a sense of absurd dislocation as if the pictures were spliced together.
The director of the Technical Department, Shen Mo.
The strange thing is that when they first saw him, all the members of the Sunken Society were at a loss, as if he was a complete stranger. As the man gradually walked out of the darkness, the young leader of the Sunken Society suddenly came to his senses and walked forward to meet him.
Shen Mo smiled and opened his arms. Another group of people quickly stepped forward and started to take off his flesh-pink leather jacket.
The scarred leader smiled and said nothing. His small eyes were fixed on the ground, not daring to look at Shen Mo's face.
They were still breathing, but the things on their bodies were not in the right place. Their bodies were hunched, their limbs seemed to have been torn off and inserted back randomly, and the women even had a thigh attached under their shoulders.
As he spoke, the scar-faced young leader couldn't help but feel depressed.
The man and woman only had human figures.
"Ah...ah..." The leather jacket was finally stripped off, revealing a deformed human mouth at the collar.
"Hey, Minister Shen! You're back! Is everything going well over there?" The young leader had a scary scar on his face, but he tried hard to smile like a spring breeze in March.
The style of this garment was like a loose coat, but when it was taken off, it made a sticky sound like tearing a plaster. Shen Mo was wearing nothing under the leather jacket, and when the jacket was taken off, the soft leather inside kept peeling off, oozing out blood.
"The artificially catalyzed 'Charon' is still not very useful, and the reaction is slow." Shen Moli ignored the groaning leather jacket. He glanced at the man and woman who were about to be transported away. "It's far from the safe Jiao Lian and Fu Wuya. It can only be used as a record book."
"Why are you so nervous? You are not even qualified to get in."
"Take it and deal with it." Shen Mo said briskly.
The young leader suppressed a shiver and made a gesture. The staff behind him immediately stepped forward, carrying packages and people, and hurriedly transported the items out.
Shen Mo loosened his hands, and the unconscious man and woman fell to the ground like sacks. The young leader's eyes slid downward, and the smile on his face slanted for a moment.
Shen Mo continued to laugh and straightened the collar of his formal suit.
"It's said that our mysterious supplier is fighting among themselves. You know, they usually don't tell us too much. This matter has nothing to do with Zhi'an. Fu Xingchuan almost died in this matter. Now Zhi'an's people are still sniffing around in the space we gave up."
"I've been gone for a few months. Tell me what happened with Shi'an."
How could the young leader dare to neglect it? He took a deep breath and talked about the failure of Feng Qige's investigation and Bai Yongji's recruitment, all the way to the research on hot springs in Gengsheng Town and the "tragic experience" of the Haigu branch of the association which sank not long ago.
The two naked bodies were moved, and their exposed skin was covered with wounds. A closer look revealed that they were all words and numbers written with a carving knife, just like a record. As the staff moved, the two bodies hung limply, and sticky flesh threads were pulled out between them, mixing with the stretcher.
"I was wondering why the other side was acting strangely. It turns out that something went wrong in the transition space... How do you describe the 'thing' that broke into the headquarters?"
"It's a real pain not being able to take dead things 'over there'."
The two men had heads that were larger than normal, with facial features that were randomly placed on their heads. The man's eyes had moved to the back of his head, one on the back of his neck, and the other the size of a palm, covering his crown. Both black pupils looked at Shen Mo, with the same distraction in their eyeballs of different sizes.
Shen Mo: "Oh, then it's no big deal."
The young leader swallowed his saliva and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Since July, the Sinking Club has been suffering losses in various ways. Not only does the big boss not take it seriously, but this department director actually thinks it is "no big deal" - no matter how high or low their positions are, they have all made wishes to the Sinking Club. Who among them doesn't live their lives with their heads hanging on the waistband of their pants
Other people may only think of safety and performance in relation to their year-end bonuses, but their performance in class is a matter of life and death.
But he didn't dare to speak nonsense.
Technical Department 1 is the most special one among all technical departments. Compared with other "assistant directors", Director Shen Mo has no special academic qualifications, but he is a well-deserved "Charon".
As long as he has this precious ability, even if the Shenming Society has something on him, Shen Mo can still walk around in the Shenming Society with his head held high. The Shenming Society did not want to find another "Charon" to check and balance him, but unfortunately nothing happened.
Shen Mo slowly put on his socks, put the bloody socks into his leather shoes, and tapped his toes twice. After tidying up his clothes, Shen Mo ignored the bloody smell on his body and tidied his messy hair.
Although he had been gone for several months without food or water, he looked like he had just had a morning business trip and still had some energy left.
"Take me to see Wei Huaqian." Shen Mo said lightly.
"Have you discovered anything new?"
"I guess so. Shi An won't be making trouble for long." Shen Mo smiled again and didn't say much.
After getting the phone, the message he sent to Wei Huaqian was another story—
[The search for the Yuanwu was fruitless, but a strange phenomenon related to the evil spirit was discovered. If used properly, it can "detonate" the evil spirit hiding underground.]
Haigu People's Hospital.
Ge Tingting opened her eyes dazedly. Her body seemed to be crushed by a meat grinder and then hastily put together. Just the movement made her want to scream, but her throat was so dry that she couldn't make a sound.
A strange pain was constantly lingering on her, her head was swollen, and it felt like... it felt just like when she was with Feng Qi before. Now Ge Tingting could judge that this symptom came from the contamination of evil power.
She had apparently survived the previous crisis, and her abilities seemed to have been enhanced. More obscure, strange-sounding whispers occasionally entered her ears.
Ge Tingting frowned, she felt as if she had turned into a broken radio.
The little girl tried hard to move her body. She endured the severe pain and barely reached the small bag on the bedside. She took out the set of headphones that were given to her when she joined the company. Zhong Cheng said that it was a good choice. It has excellent noise reduction performance and is specially designed to deal with various inhuman mutterings of unknown origin.
Thinking of the dead Zhong Chengshuo and Yin Ren, Ge Tingting froze in mid-air with his headphones on.
She bit her lower lip and her eyes slowly turned red.
The world of metaphysics is much more cruel than she imagined. Yin Ren and Zhong Cheng were both the most powerful people she had ever seen, but even so, they both died in just a few months. As expected, she must surpass those two people and climb to Class B, Class A, or even higher to ensure her own safety. She must study hard and work harder.
If she had studied harder, could she have helped more? Would Zhong Chengshuo and Yin Ren have survived
Ge Tingting forgot the pain in his limbs and slowly curled up his body.
She sniffed, took out her cell phone with difficulty, and opened the Zhian working group.
[Ear Man: Let's go to that barbecue restaurant again, just to commemorate Brother Yin and Brother Zhong. I can treat you.]
[Ear Man: TT]
Ge Tingting looked at the avatars of Yin Ren and Zhong Chengshuo in the group, tears falling down and wetting the screen of her phone. She was in a single ward and had never missed the public ward of Group 9 so much.
[Galaxy: Yeah]Lu Xiaohe replied very quickly.
[Wan Liang: [Smile]]
[Ear person:? ]
[Wan Liang: It’s nothing, it’s great, I will definitely go. But don’t rush to pay, someone else will pay when the time comes.]
[fruit knife:?]
[Ear man:]
Ge Tingting lost his balance and nearly dropped his phone to the ground—Yin Ren had changed his WeChat profile picture, and when he spoke just now, Ge Tingting almost didn't recognize him.
Yin Ren's avatar changed from a shark with its belly turned upside down to a shark holding an apple.
Was the number stolen? ... Probably not. Zhian's confidentiality measures were very good, and Yin Ren brought his phone with him when he entered the room, so there was no possibility that the phone was stolen.
Could it be that Yin Ren was too obsessed with the human world and turned into a fierce ghost? Ge Tingting thought in a daze.
[Fruit Knife: This is what happened. I had a fight with the attacker, and then it died completely. I also passed out. My... well, there was a problem with the communication method, and Fu Xingchuan thought I was dead.]
[Fruit Knife: It was all a misunderstanding. I was just slightly hurt.]
[Galaxy: Then why didn't you contact us before? !]
[Fruit Knife: I have been making the high-precision meat figurines that Zhong Cheng mentioned. Sorry.]
The group fell into a long silence.
[Fruit knife: To ensure that Zhong Chengshuo's parents would not notice anything unusual, and also to remind people of him when seeing the object.]
He typed this sentence particularly quickly.
Ge Tingting looked at the words "high-precision flesh figurines" in shock, his hands trembling a little. Now she knew what it was, but now she wasn't sure whether she knew it or not.
Although her life experience was limited, she had never seen such a unique way of cherishing someone.
Is it that urgent? She didn't understand.
[Galaxy: I'm glad everything is alright.]
[Wan Liang: Yes, I'm glad everything is alright [smile]]
[Ear Man: Then let’s go to that barbecue restaurant to commemorate Brother Zhong.]
[Fruit Knife: I'll treat you. By the way, Sister Xiaohe and Xiaoge, you can start thinking about the wishes you want to make.]
Ge Tingting paused as she was about to type. She thought carefully and said, "Then let Brother Yin pay for this meal."
[fruit knife:…]
[Wan Liang: ??? Think about it before making a wish!]
[Galaxy: Why are you so excited?]
[Manryo: You don’t understand…! Making a wish carefully is one thing, wasting it is another!]
[Fruit Knife: Well, let’s talk about it when we meet. By the way, I will bring Brother Zhong’s meat figurine with me, please don’t mind.]
The group fell silent again.
[Galaxy: It's okay, we understand.] Lu Xiaohe, who has an amazing hand speed, typed this sentence with a hint of doubt.
[Fruit Knife: I will also bring Fu Xingchuan with me, if you don’t mind.]
[Ear person:? ]
This question mark is the only remaining emotion for Ge Tingting now.
[Fruit Knife: It’s like this. In the previous actions, I believe everyone is very interested in my identity, so I want to talk to you in person.]
In fact, more than that.
Yin Ren put down his phone, glanced at Zhong Cheng beside him and said.
He has already found the next task for the nine groups. It is a task that is not very dangerous but can bring achievements. Once the competition is over, the procedure can begin.
The mysteries of the evil power are piling up, and they don't have time to investigate slowly. The sniper's strength is shocking. If it weren't for the grief over losing Zhong Chengshuo, Yin Ren would not have the confidence to win if he were to fight the sniper again.
We might as well take advantage of the gathering of experts here and take action on the most essential and direct clues of this matter.
The two of them, and the evil spirit lurking underground.
The author has something to say:
Shenmohui: It's okay, we'll sneak attack the underground evil spirit! Haha, you never expected that.
Be strong, and you will sink.
