The ground of the fountain is very high, and if you don't jump up, you can't really see the situation in the pool. With a support from Angel, Angel jumped directly into the air and observed the details in the pool from a height.
There is not much water in the pool, only a shallow layer, dense with a touch of water vapor. The "urine" of the peeing child fell into the pool, splashing a few white flowers, rippling like waves.
At first glance, Angel found nothing unusual. The water looks like ordinary water, and the bottom of the pool is white and clean, so you can see the bottom at a glance. It wasn't until Angel turned around the pool to the other side that he suddenly realized something was wrong.
On the side facing away from the Manneken Pis statue, there is something similar to a doorknob at the extension of the statue's base. Angel thought to himself, could it be that something is in the base of the statue
With this question, Angel flew to the base of the statue and gently pulled the doorknob-like protrusion.
As the door handle was pulled open, a hole slightly higher than the water surface, about 1.5 meters or so, appeared in front of Anger... The hole was dark and dark. Anger turned on the flashlight and swept inside, and found that it was unexpectedly dark. It's a staircase.
Suddenly, Angel's eyes widened suddenly!
The stairs are true, but the direction of the stairs is not down, but up!
Imagine that there is a staircase at the base of a small statue, and the direction of the staircase is upward, which means that there should be a way up. But Angel flew around the statue several times, and it was all empty, not even a single obstacle. This is strange, this road seems to be built out of thin air and spreads into the unknown space. Just like the legendary road to the sky, there is no relying on the appearance, directly to the other side of the kingdom of God.
If it was Angel, who was taught by Jon and believed in science before, he would probably be stunned at this time. But after being nurtured in Sanders' library, Ingres also has his own insights into some mysterious events.
"Perhaps, this is also a space technology, similar to the passage between planes?" Angel thought.
Angel looked at this unknown passage, a little hesitant whether he should go in—
After finally finding a passage, Angel naturally wanted to go in and find out. But he is just a person now, who knows if this passage is an exit to the outside world. If he stepped in, he might miss his encounter with his mentor.
But if he doesn't step in, Angel feels itchy again. In the nightmare world, he has gained a lot in these days. If there is a place to put the guidance method, he can also use a holographic tablet to record a template in advance. After all, Sanders once said that this guide method is extremely special. If you remember it, you may not really remember it. If you leave the nightmare world, you will forget the content of the guide method. If you are the first to use the holographic tablet to record it first, even if you return to the real world and forget it, you don't have to worry too much.
If he waited for Sanders to go in here, he wouldn't dare to reveal the existence of the holographic tablet, and naturally he couldn't record it. Of course, the premise of everything is that behind this door, there is the guidance method that Sanders has been thinking about for hundreds of years.
If behind this door is actually the exit of the sewer maze, then when Angel steps in, he will face missing with Sanders.
It was for this reason that Angel hesitated. To go in or not to go in, that is the difficult question.
In the end, Angel gritted his teeth. In the cruel and realistic wizarding world, if he didn't fight hard and didn't have an indomitable drive, he would never make it out. The big waves wash away the sand, either you die on the front beach, or I drown in the back waves. Only the tide-goers who are not afraid of the waves and struggle at the peak of the waves can find a way out.
Thinking of this, Angel no longer hesitated in his eyes. With a hint of decisiveness, he bowed and got into the wooden door at the base of the statue.
The wooden door is not high, and Angel thought that the passage inside would also be cramped, but unexpectedly, when he stepped on the stairs, he could no longer feel the narrowness.
He couldn't even feel the distance to the top, and both sides of the stairs were boundless darkness, and even a flashlight couldn't illuminate the dark fog, like a chaotic space. Only the stairs at the foot are proclaiming a sense of existence.
After walking for about ten minutes, there is still no end. Angel silently counted the distance. If the height of the stairs is the same as the distance in the outside world, then his current position should have left the maze of the sewer.
After walking for another two minutes, a light suddenly flashed in front of him. Angel squinted and looked up, and saw an equally narrow wooden door. The door was open, and the light was shining from inside.
Angel walked quickly to the door, and did not step into the wooden door immediately, but looked to the other side suspiciously.
He thought the wooden door was the exit, but it didn't seem to be. Because the stairs did not come to an end, through the light emitted from the door, it could be clearly seen that the stairs were still spiraling upwards, and the end was unknown. And this wooden door is just the middle station of this staircase.
Angel lowered his head and looked inside the door.
Inside the door is a small room with a light source tube similar to a sewer labyrinth overhead, which illuminates the entire room brightly. Angel looked at it at a glance, and there were quite a lot of things in it. There were beds, tables and cabinets. It seemed that someone once lived in the room.
Because of the angle of view, Angel didn't see it realistically, but he didn't see any traces of monsters in the room. So, he decided to go in and have a look, maybe the guidance method the teacher said was in it.
After Angel bowed and stepped into the wooden door, he deliberately looked out the door. He was worried that after entering the room, the stairs outside the door would disappear.
Obviously, his worries are superfluous. There was no change inside or outside the door, the stairs still existed, and the wooden door was not closed.
Only then did Angel feel relieved, and rummaged through the small room to search.
The room is not big, the table, chairs and bed take up a lot of space, and the furniture is hollowed out of wood, so Angel can see at a glance whether there is anything tricky in it.
The only place to hide things in the entire room was the bedside table, but there was a lock on it, but Angel was very fortunate to have taken the young Sanders' dagger at this time, otherwise he would not be able to open the cabinet with his bare hands.
With a dagger in hand, Angel didn't spend much effort to pick the lock on the cabinet.
As soon as the cabinet door was opened, a rotten smell that had not seen the sun for a long time came from inside. Angel frowned and looked inside. There was a piece of clothing and a green book in it.
As soon as Angel touched that piece of clothing, it turned into fly ash and disappeared.
The books with green covers, although there are traces of beetles, are not serious. Angel carefully took it out and gently placed it on the table.
The cover of the book was written in a line of fonts that he did not recognize.
When I opened the inside, it was still the same font. Angel had never seen this type of font, but after turning over several pages, Angel had guessed from some dates and labels: this book is probably a diary. s things.
Because each page was written somewhat differently, and the headers of each page had the same footnotes, Angel guessed that it might be the date.
Since it was a diary that he could not understand, it should not be the bizarre guidance method mentioned by the tutor. Thinking of this, Angel recorded the book which was not too thick. Although he could not understand it at present, when he returned to the wizarding world, he might have a chance to decipher the text inside.
There may be something strange about the content inside, after all, it is something in the nightmare world.
After the recording, Angel did not put the book back in its original place, but left the wooden door directly.
Not long after he stepped back up the stairs, the green book on the table suddenly disappeared, and the pried lock on the nightstand was restored. If someone opens the bedside table at this time, they will find that the inside has returned to what Angel had seen at the beginning. The clothes have not been turned into ashes, and the books have been kept in their original places. Everything here seems to be frozen by time.
