The comic books in his hand were what Anna, Qingyi and the others had read before... Anna had asked him a question about why there were no elite and perfect high school students that impressed him deeply.
Now that there is no entertainment for the spirit behind it, Gon Lai uses it as entertainment.
"When I get home, will Mr. Ghost come back with me?"
She raised her head and looked at him. Inexplicably, this middle-class loli's words contained a little expectation.
"In The Wizard of Oz, the Tin Woodman and the Scarecrow didn't go back with Dorothy, did they?"
Pouting his lips, Bai Zhi opened a new page in the comic book in his hand.
"There are some things that I can't say too much, and you won't understand if I do. You are still young now, and when you grow up, you will... huh?"
Frowning slightly, Bai Zhi suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky.
I don't know when, a full moon appeared quietly above the ink-stained sky.
… moon
At this time, Li Shiqi also noticed something appearing above the night sky, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange at the moment.
In the past few days, she had stayed in the circus and had no idea that the moon would appear outside during curfew hours.
But before she could react, under her gaze, an extra moon suddenly appeared in the night sky.
"...two moons?"
The trace of disappointment in his heart quietly subsided, and he rubbed his eyes with his hands in a little shock. Li Shiqi raised his head and looked over again with some disbelief.
This time, there were three moons in the sky.
… No, more than three.
Three, four, five, six, seven... Under Li Shiqi's blank gaze, more and more moons appeared over the city that never sleeps.
"Close your eyes, lower your head, and don't look."
At this time, the slightly serious voice of Mr. Ghost came from the side.
"oh… "
Li Shiqi nodded slightly blankly, then obediently lowered his head and closed his eyes.
Although she is very curious, she still knows what can and cannot be done.
—She has absolute trust in Mr. Ghost, who has been accompanying her from the beginning until now.
And even if she lowered her head and stopped looking, the growth rate of the moon in the sky did not decrease, but became more and more numerous, and finally even completely occupied the sky of the entire city that never sleeps.
By this time, Bai Zhi's face had become ugly after seeing the scenery above his head clearly.
…Those things in the night sky, where is the moon
What was clearly visible was the densely opened eyes of some incredibly large monster above the city that never sleeps! !
Do monsters of this size still exist in this world
And something even more unexpected to Bai Zhi was still to come.
Just when those eyes opened densely and were about to completely occupy the night sky of the Evernight City, the Evernight City, which had fallen into a dead silence, finally had its own reaction.
From the very center of Evernight City, where the two dancing houses were located, hundreds of tentacles as huge as spider limbs grew densely.
With its tentacles covering the sky and the sun, it emerged from the center of the town and quickly covered the entire city. It seemed as if it was going to wrap up the entire city that never sleeps.
The earth shook and the sky was erratic.
The "moon" in the sky, which originally illuminated the entire city that never sleeps like daylight, returned to darkness with the movement of touching feet.
Looking at the scene in front of him, what didn't Bai Zhi understand
—The entire city that never sleeps is clearly a living creature! !
Or it can be said that the entire city that never sleeps is just an extremely huge giant spider. Those monsters, including them, all live on the body of this giant spider! !
Above the sky, the battle between two huge monsters continued.
Under that kind of battle scene that was completely unimaginable to ordinary people, the entire city was trembling slightly.
Bai Zhi finally figured out why the entire city would tremble slightly at this time before.
They didn't feel it at all in the circus before, but now outside, the true face of the entire city that never sleeps was finally revealed in front of them.
But compared to the past, the trembling this time was even more intense.
It used to be a slight tremor, as if lying in a hammock, and it would automatically return to calm after a while.
But now, as time goes by, the tremors in the city are getting bigger and bigger.
Not only that, at a certain moment, perhaps the battle fell into a bad situation, and the ground silently opened small openings, and one after another the sleeping monsters were mercilessly devoured by the city itself.
Almost in the blink of an eye, this middle-aged lolita fell into a second crisis.
"What's going on? Is there an earthquake?"
His body tilted and he almost fell to the ground. Li Shiqi opened his eyes in a daze.
Then when she opened her eyes, she saw a small hole opened on the ground of the street not far away, and a monster sleeping on the street was directly swallowed by the small hole.
Vaguely, she could see that the small hole was full of tiny, disturbing tentacles...
But before she could take a closer look, Mr. Ghost's figure appeared in front of her.
"That's right, there's an earthquake, run away."
Bai Zhi squinted his eyes and glanced at the back of this middle-class lolita, and nodded.
"If you want to get home safely, hurry up and run to the dancing house."
Perhaps it was because the behemoth in the Evernight City finally moved, so at this moment, he saw the reality that he had never been able to see before.
Everyone in the Evernight City, including the middle-class lolita in front of them, had one or more tiny white spider threads stuck to their bodies.
The spider silk is extremely thin, connecting upwards to the tentacles above the head that cover the sky and the sun.
-This is also an important basis for his judgment that the Evernight City is actually a huge spider.
In fact, the situation of the middle-aged lolita in front of me is not bad, and there is only a spider thread stuck on its back. However, some of the monsters on the roadside are even covered in white spider threads all over their bodies. Tightly wound.
Most of those who were swallowed by the holes that suddenly opened in the ground were these guys who were almost wrapped into a white cocoon.
So in theory, the middle-aged lolita in front of me is actually safe.
…but be afraid of anything unexpected.
By now, he had begun to doubt his own judgment.
—Is it really the old dean who dominates this living city that never sleeps
Volume 2 The Miracle of Improbable Probability: Chapter 1445 Chapter 523 The So-called "Fairy Tale" (4k)
The earth is shaking and the city is shaking.
The duel between the two behemoths directly affected the overall environment of the entire city that never sleeps.
Perhaps because of being at a disadvantage in the battle, in Bai Zhi's sight, the entire Evernight City had completely turned into a spider nest at this moment.
Tiny white spider threads were floating everywhere, and everyone in the city was reduced to a small insect in this huge spider nest.
In such an environment, Li Shiqi spent nearly an hour before reaching the dancing house with difficulty.
"... Go in directly?"
Looking up at the house that was twisting like seaweed in front of him, and wiping the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, Li Shiqi swallowed unconsciously.
The previous hour was extremely thrilling for her.
If it weren't for Mr. Ghost's lighting and early warning, and if she also liked sports on weekdays, she estimated that she would have to account for the dozens of pounds she had today.
Coupled with the incredibly huge spider tentacles crawling in the sky that she had seen along the way, although she was not so scared that she couldn't walk or anything, there was definitely some fear in her heart.
"... You should cover your eyes first, and then plug your ears and nose with cotton."
With a slightly subtle look on his face, Bai Zhi glanced at the dozens of snow-white spider threads wrapped around the opponent's hands. After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi responded.
In fact, for the sake of safety, the best way is to dig out the eyes and prick the deaf ears. This way, the danger can be eliminated to the greatest extent.
But even adults need a lot of courage to do this kind of thing, let alone a primary school student. For the sake of the other party's psychological safety, Bai Zhi had no choice but to settle for the next best thing.
"Um... okay."
After a little hesitation, Li Shiqi nodded.
The Dancing House is a landmark building in the city that never sleeps. Its external form is two tall buildings facing each other and constantly twisting.
The high-rise building has no doors or windows, only two black doors facing each other. The doors are not locked and anyone can enter.
But correspondingly, all the beings who entered it never came out from it.
Looking at the black door frame that was constantly changing shape as the building twisted in front of him, Li Shiqi took a deep breath and covered his eyes.
Generally speaking, there are three main ways for humans to obtain external information.
Sight, hearing, touch.
With his vision and hearing blocked, Li Shiqi suddenly felt boundless fear.
She had had this kind of experience in the past, such as covering her eyes with a red scarf and letting her classmates pull her from the school gate to the classroom.
-That feeling will be unforgettable once you experience it once.
But now, not only her eyes, but also her ears were blocked with cotton prepared in advance, so she was naturally even more panicked.
Her imagination was already rich. In this state of being unable to see or hear anything, almost in an instant, she imagined countless weird and terrifying scenes in her mind. .
And just when she couldn't help but want to pull off the cloth covering her face, a rather gentle voice quietly sounded in her heart.
… Mr. Ghost
When she heard that voice, almost instantly, her panic was calmed down.
To be honest, this was the first time she heard Mr. Ghost speak in such a gentle tone. The natural intimacy in his tone even made her indulge in it unconsciously.
After gathering herself and following Mr. Ghost's instructions, she reached out and pushed open the door in front of her, then walked into the building in front of her.
Although she can't see anything with her eyes and can't hear anything with her ears, she can still feel the surrounding situation.
After stepping into the door, the first thing she felt was a sense of heat. It felt a bit like walking into a mist-filled bathhouse, with water vapor permeating around her.
At the same time, the explanation from Mr. Ghost also sounded in her heart at the right time.
[Well... you have now entered a bathhouse. There are many things bathing in the bathhouse... Fortunately, you covered your eyes, otherwise this scene may not be too harsh on the eyes. Now take three steps to the left, and then walk forward...]
… Is it really a bathhouse
While muttering secretly in his heart, Li Shiqi moved his body honestly according to Mr. Ghost's instructions.
She is not a fool. On the contrary, she is quite smart. She has long been aware of Mr. Ghost's protection of her in words and actions.
Or to be precise, when the circus party strictly prohibited her from watching other circus performances, she already had some guesses in her mind.
Some things cannot be deceived.
… For example, the few humans in the circus have almost become madmen.
Although I don’t know what those people went through at the circus to become like that, but I guess it’s not a good thing.
—Mr. Ghost, has been protecting her silently in his own way.
It was like that before, and it is like that now.
The other party said that the place he was in now was a bathhouse, but maybe the real situation outside was a gloomy and strange place. The water vapor on the skin might be blood or something...
[Congratulations, you have left the last bathhouse that was extremely eye-catching, and now you have come to a brand new scene... Okay, let me take back my congratulations, this scene is also very weird, there are all cats in it, some Cats are doing backflips, and some cats are tied to a piece of bread to become a perpetual motion machine...]
…a cat that can do backflips
Hmm... Mr. Ghost is making up a scene to lie to me again. He is indeed a good person...
[... Well, here are a lot of mice with paintbrushes in their hands and hats on their heads, drawing... Take three steps to the side and try not to touch the paintings drawn by the mice... ]
…After the cat who could do backflips, he became a mouse who could draw
Although Li Shiqi did not think that what Mr. Ghost said was a real scene, this did not prevent her from sketching those scenes in her mind based on what he said.
For a moment, she was thinking about it in her mind.
