In a dark house, Liliat's clothes were soaked through. She looked around at a loss. The French windows not far away were half open, and a gust of cool wind came in and blew on the wet clothes, making her shiver uncontrollably.
It was raining heavily outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the wind was also strong. You could vaguely see the swaying branches of the trees not far away, and the rainwater poured into the house along the direction of the wind. Outside the house, there was even more dull thunder roaring, and occasional flashes of lightning illuminated the room brightly.
Liliat wrapped her clothes tightly, pulled up the floor-to-ceiling windows, and locked them.
Under several lightning strikes, she determined the position of the power switch in the room, walked over and pressed a button of unknown purpose, guessing that there should at least be a light inside.
After pressing all four buttons on the switch several times, the lights did not come on, nor did any other electrical appliances respond.
At this moment, she vaguely heard a strange sound coming from outside the door.
Liliat tiptoed and restrained her voice as much as possible, walked to the door, slowly pressed the door handle, and opened the door a crack. In the gap is a corridor. In the corridor, there was a huge bug walking towards the room he was in with eight long legs.
Liliat quickly locked the door, covered her mouth with one hand, and slowly backed away, trying not to let herself make a sound, her body was still shaking violently. This time it was not because of the cold, but because of fear.
The eight-legged bug was the spider she had feared and loathed since she was a child. Because she was bitten by this kind of creature when she was very young and almost died of poisoning, she has always had a psychological shadow.
But the spider outside is huge, nearly three meters high, with terrifying spikes on its eight feet, sharp sawtooths extending from its mouth, and the original eight eyes on its back have evolved into something weird. Twelve. It's a bit like the mutant beasts Gu Ding met on Korla. It can be said that she combined her two unpleasant experiences together.
The sound of something knocking on the door was heard outside the door. With just one impact, the spikes on the spider's leg pierced a hole in the wooden door. Then, the second time, the third time...
Liliat kept backing away, and suddenly staggered. He tripped over the stool that fell on the ground, and his eyes just fell under the bed.
At this time, a flash of lightning flashed across, and Liliat saw a little girl crawling under the bed, covering her mouth with her hands, sobbing softly.
The little girl had fiery red hair and looked only five or six years old. Liliat still remembered that she was bitten by a spider at about the same age.
It might be because of seeing this little girl. At this time, her sense of fear weakened a little. She walked to the side of the bed, lifted the drooping sheet, squatted down, and stretched out her hand towards the little girl. "Come out, I will take you away, you will be found if you hide here."
The little girl hesitated for a moment, then nodded after wiping away her tears, and crawled out from under the bed, holding a fluffy white bear toy in her hand.
Liliat vaguely felt that the toy looked familiar, but she didn't delve too deeply into it. She rubbed the little girl's head, "Tell me, what's your name?"
"My name is Lily." The little girl's nervousness seemed to have eased a little.
"What a coincidence? My name is Lily too." Liliat looked at the door, the lower part of the door was basically destroyed, but with the size of that spider, it shouldn't be able to squeeze in, but the door seems to be It can't last too long either.
Liliat took the little girl's hand and walked towards the French windows. After pushing open the floor-to-ceiling windows, a gust of cold wind blew in, and the heavy rain was still pouring, but at this time, I didn't care so much. The two walked to the balcony, Liliat looked down, she wanted to know the height of this room from the ground. Looking down, she despaired of the possibility of escaping from here, at least two or three hundred meters from the ground.
"Sister, there is a passage in the closet." Lily pointed to the closet in the room.
Liliat didn't have the time to think about why there was an aisle in the closet at the moment. She pulled Lily and rushed towards the closet, opened the closet, and there were many high-end brand clothes hanging inside, including men's clothing and women's clothing . Obviously, this room should be lived by a couple.
Pushing the clothes aside, Liliat saw a secret passage as expected. She picked up Lily and sent her inside, then stepped into it herself, closed the closet with her backhand, and even moved all the clothes back to their original positions. Then he led Lily along the secret passage.
The two walked for a long time, and just when Liliat was wondering whether the secret passage had an end, a fork appeared in front of her, and the secret passage led to two different directions, one left and one right.
She used her eyesight to the extreme, and couldn't see any difference between the two secret passages, so she immediately turned to look at Lily. "Lily, do you know where the two secret passages lead to?"
Lily shook her head, "I only know that there is a secret passage, but I've never entered it because it's too dark here."
Liliat is also a little speechless. Although she is not usually a tangled person, but now is the time to escape, and the accuracy of her choice is very important. After hesitating for a moment, she turned her gaze to the left, "Lily, shall we go to the left?"
"En." Lily nodded without raising any objections.
After receiving Lily's affirmative answer, Liliat's confidence rose a little, "Just go to the left, if it really doesn't work, then run back."
They chose the left side, and the two continued to walk forward. They didn't go far, and finally saw a door. Liliat squeezed Lily's hand with a little more force, and she made a silent movement towards Lily. Lily covered her mouth with the stuffed bear toy's head, and imitated Liliat's heels on the ground, trying not to make any noise.
Liliat gently opened the door, revealing a crack, and looked out through the crack.
Behind this door is another room, the room is quiet and seems to be safe.
Holding Lily, the two returned to the room. This room is a study room with a large area. There are bookcases with a height of more than three meters on both walls, and the top of the bookcases is almost completely level with the ceiling. Inside the bookcase, there are all kinds of paper books.
In the center of the room, there is a mahogany desk. These days, pure wooden things are quite expensive, and even paper is not affordable for ordinary people, let alone a pure wooden desk.
On the desk, the items were placed neatly and orderly. It was obvious that the owner of this study was a strict self-disciplined person. There was also a photo frame standing on the desk, but in this dark environment, Liliat could only vaguely see a couple and a little girl in the photo frame, but she couldn't see the faces clearly, so she didn't take a closer look.
Behind the desk is a black leather swivel sofa. The legs of the swivel chair are made of metal, reflecting a faint metallic luster in the night.
"Where are your parents?" Liliat finally took some time to ask this question.
"At work..." Lily seemed unhappy when talking about this matter.
After rushing to the desk, Liliat began to rummage through the cabinets and drawers to see if there were any weapons that could be used.
She rummaged through the first drawer on the left hand side, looking for them one by one, but the drawers were full of items like work disks.
All the drawers have been rummaged through, only one drawer cannot be opened.
Liliat found a metal card at random, carefully swipe along the position of the lock, and opened the drawer as well.
"Sister, are you a thief?" At this moment, Lily asked.
"My sister is not a thief. My sister just wants to find a weapon that can protect the two of us." Liliat searched the last drawer without looking up, but still found nothing.
"Is this okay?" Lily suddenly handed over a silver pistol.
"Where did you get it?" Liliat took the pistol.
"I just took it from my mother's bag when I was in the closet." Lily explained.
Liliat checked the gun case, it was full of bullets, and the gun had a capacity of twenty bullets. After getting the pistol, Liliat's sense of fear was instantly wiped away, and she was ready to take the initiative.
In the past, she would never have made such a choice. But after getting to know Gu Ding, she understood a truth, the chance of winning by taking the initiative is greater than passive defense.
"Follow me, don't get lost." Liliat whispered to Lily.
Lily nodded.
After opening the door, Liliat looked around. The spider monster was gone, but she saw the room where she and Lily were hiding before, which was less than 20 meters away from the current room. Liliat still clearly remembered how the door was damaged, and she could clearly see where she was standing now through the crack of the door.
She knew that the spider hadn't gone far, and at this moment, meaning slime dripped from the ceiling not far in front of Liliat. Liliat instantly raised her gun and fired, and the spider who was hiding on the ceiling and lowered its body was instantly hit in the eye by Liliat.
Stimulated by the pain, it rushed towards Liliat crazily, but Liliat had no fear at all at this moment, and each of her bullets repeatedly landed in the eye socket of the spider that burst just now, one after another. Five shots, just when the spider's serrated teeth were about to pinch his neck, the body of the huge monster collapsed.
Green blood instantly soaked the entire ground.
"It's over..." When Liliat looked back at Lily, she found that the little girl had disappeared at some point. "Lily?!"
When she turned around and looked around, she found that the environment in front of her had completely changed...
