The twisted figure stood outside, staring intently at the group of people busying around in the house.
"Everyone, be careful! Leave as soon as we're done checking!" Having completed so many missions, how could they not know that this was a sign of strange events to come
"Hurry up, hurry up!"
The men moved faster and faster, flipping through the files with a clattering sound. The man sitting at the computer also sped up his progress, his fingertips flying across the keyboard.
quick…
Faster!
A cold wind blew in, and a pile of files that had been placed high up and covered with thick dust suddenly fell to the ground without warning, making a loud noise that startled everyone.
Shen Zhu was also flipping through a stack of files in his hands, his whole body tense.
She knew that she was the most dangerous person in the group. Who made her promise a ghost? She became restless when she thought of it. Her tense state was suddenly startled. She immediately turned her head to look for it. Seeing that it was just a pile of books falling, she relaxed a little and focused her attention on the documents again.
In the flickering lights, the photo on the file in her hand suddenly turned into Yan Haoyue's face, and that face smiled at her.
With a "click".
The document in Shen Zhu's hand fell to the ground, attracting everyone's attention again.
"Sister Shen Zhu, what's wrong?"
Shen Zhu knew that his behavior would easily draw attention, so he immediately shook his head and said, "It's okay, my hand slipped." After that, regardless of whether others believed it or not, he tiptoed to put the cover of the document back on, hiding the photos that were about to be exposed by the wind.
The light flickered even more violently, and there was no doubt that it would go out in the next second.
"Hurry! Go! Come back later."
In order to avoid the situation where the door was locked and no one could get out, a member of the team guarded the door and pressed against the door. As soon as he shouted into the door, the flickering lights dimmed instantly and the room was plunged into darkness.
No one dared to stay any longer and everyone ran towards the door desperately. Shen Zhu was among the crowd and also ran out.
The top of her head ached slightly, but she couldn't feel anything.
Books fell off the shelf one after another, and the bookshelf shook as if something was shaking it violently. This only made everyone more certain that there was something fishy in the police station!
The man running behind Shen Zhu stepped out smoothly. He grabbed the man blocking the door and said, "Quick! Run quickly."
He just issued a warning, but why did he not move at all
He loosened his grip on the man's hand and pulled down one of his arms. Before he could react, the man seemed to have cut off all the joints, and Shen Zhu's face was shattered into a pile of broken limbs, scattered all over the ground.
Thick, fishy, and hot blood splashed all over his head and body. Shen Zhu didn't bother to wipe it off and rushed out.
The lights in the entire corridor were broken and could not be turned on. It was only evening, but the night was so dark that it was difficult to clearly see the faces of my companions at close range. The only thing I could perceive was a few hazy shadows running around and the sound of chaotic footsteps.
So, I came to the police station to find Yan Haoyue, right? Shen Zhu thought.
During the day, she had walked through the corridors and turns, but now it seemed like a maze, and no matter how she walked, she could not reach the end. Shen Zhu was getting more and more panicked, and she tried to calm herself down, but her heart was beating faster and faster, almost jumping out of her throat.
Something... is following her!
There is no mistake, it must be Yan Haoyue. I promised to come to find her, so is she the one who came to find me
Shen Zhu continued to run outside following the people behind her. She did not notice that the figure behind her... was just a shadow.
She just followed those shadows and ran deeper into the space.
As for whether this space is a police station, who knows
Why
Why haven’t you gotten out after running for so long
Where is the big house? Wait, who are those people here? Are they really my companions
As soon as this thought came to her mind, Shen Zhu realized something was wrong. The shadows behind her began to look strange in her eyes.
No matter what, he doesn't look like anyone I know.
What to do? Which direction should she run
Logically, she had been running for so long, long enough to walk back and forth between the police station and her residence, but now she was still trapped...
What should I do
If she calmed down, she would find that she was in a state of abnormal confusion. But at this moment, she had almost lost the ability to think calmly after being in the darkness for so long, and immediately said, "Haoyue, is that you? I did come to find you. I didn't break my promise, can you let me go?"
The taskers have emphasized countless times, including herself and the newcomers: ghosts have no emotions and no logic. People cannot negotiate with ghosts, nor can they communicate with ghosts.
If you encounter a ghost, you have no choice but to run! Run fast. You still have a chance to survive. Begging for mercy, negotiating, or playing the emotional card are useless. Of course, if you can figure out the rules of the task, you may be able to kill the ghost.
Because, the mission is not only for them to do, but also for the ghosts to complete.
Unfortunately, Shen Zhu was too flustered, and the pain from her head made her forget the last rule, and she begged desperately in the dark space.
"I really came to find you, and now I want to go back. Please don't look for me anymore, okay?"
She doesn't want to die, she wants to live...
"Please! Let me go. Please let me go for the sake of our former friendship."
Just after she finished speaking, a light bulb hanging above the corridor seemed to flash with electricity, and then it lit up.
It was as if a switch was pressed, and the cold wind, the faint whispers of people, and the shadowy eyes that were previously perceived in the darkness disappeared, leaving only an old light bulb emitting a dim light.
Shen Zhu could hardly believe her eyes. She stopped and found herself still standing in the middle of the corridor, except that everyone else had run away. The corridor and the open rooms on both sides were all empty.
"Thank you, thank you Haoyue, I will burn incense and paper money for you when I go back, and I will take good care of your family." Shen Zhu didn't want to stay any longer and ran quickly to the exit.
It was not until the moment she rushed out of the street and bathed in the moonlight that she finally let go.
She actually survived
Yan Haoyue let her go
"Are you sure she's really a traitor?" Fang Tu grabbed Lin Chu's hair and pulled it back hard. Seeing Lin Chu whimpering in pain, he reached out and patted her face. "Do you want to talk to me yourself, or should I make you talk?"
His voice was very soft, but it made the other taskers tremble in unison, and they tacitly moved a few steps away from him.
Even though people who survived multiple missions basically won't have mercy on others, they have killed many people. But... people who are as cruel as Fang Tu are still rare. He seems to be born without any fear. He has been interested in blood, bones and other things since he was a child, but he can't be a doctor. Due to the law, he can only suppress his hobbies.
Until he became a tasker.
Almost every time, he would use some NPCs to perform live dissections, without any hesitation. Once, he even scared a newcomer crazy, but he didn't care. There was no difference between a crazy teammate and an NPC, and he just got rid of him.
This was a message posted by one of the few teammates who survived his hands. Most people were afraid of his personality, but some people thought that they could use him for their own benefit.
If the case needs to be interrogated, would it be inappropriate to send him to the scene
Lin Chu sat in the middle of the living room, her hands and feet tied. She cried and shook her head, tears flying: "I really don't know, I'm not a traitor... What do I want? I will do it even if I can't complete the task..."
She had a cute face, and when she cried with fear on her face she looked like a carefree child.
Yuan crossed his arms and stared at her coldly: "Yeah, what do you want?"
"I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, from now on... I will never look at those NPCs again... I really just think he looks good..." Lin Chu burst into tears again, his face full of tears.
"Shh, don't make noise." Fang Tu had a knife in his hand. The tip of the knife gently scratched Lin Chu's cheek. The cold air made her shiver and she dared not move. She stiffened her neck and looked at him in fear.
"Even though you're crying, why do I always feel like you're lying to me?"
Lin Chu suppressed his fear and tried to shrink his neck: "I didn't... Please, I really didn't..."
Yu Huaiyao couldn't help but stand up: "I also think it's not her. She has no reason to interfere with our mission."
Fang Tu paused, turned around, and moved his sinister eyes to Yu Huaiyao, moving them up and down with interest, as if observing which place would be better to cut.
"Yu Huaiyao, right? We are handling the matter, it is inappropriate for you, a newcomer, to interfere." Ling Tong drove him away rudely.
The two taskers understood what was happening and tried to pull him away.
Yu Huaiyao refused to leave and stood there stubbornly. He had been repairing cultural relics for many years and often went to construction sites, so he was quite strong, so the two men failed to drag him away.
"She's already done. There's no need for her to betray. Everyone has the same mission. She has to give up even if she can't complete it." Yu Huaiyao struggled to defend her. "Chuchu is just a newcomer. She was indeed not vigilant enough this time, but you can't label her a traitor because of this, right?"
"Chu Chu? Your voice sounds so beautiful. What is your relationship?" Fang Tu retracted his gaze and took a deep sniff into Lin Chu's hair frivolously.
Lin Chu continued to sob. She also wondered why Yu Huaiyao wanted to help her. It would be fine if it was for other people, but Yu Huaiyao witnessed with his own eyes that she had injured An Ru. What was his purpose
Yu Huaiyao said: "I have nothing to do with her, I just can't stand you bullying others like this."
At first glance, they really looked like a pair of young lovers who were forced to separate because of the bully's coercion.
"Besides, the man she stopped might not be Lu Yanli. If you suspect he is, why don't you just monitor him? Why would you do that to a girl?"
Lin Chu smiled and said: "No need for you to remind us, we have already sent people there." While speaking, his eyes were looking at Lin Chu intentionally or unintentionally.
Lin Chu didn't reveal any flaws and nodded frantically: "Yes, yes, yes, if you want to investigate, just check him. I really didn't do anything. I, I won't be stupid again."
"That's enough. Let's go home today." Jiang Yu, who had been silent, said, "Lin Chu's suspicion is still difficult to clear, so you must accept our supervision and never be alone."
He didn't even glance at Lin Chu: "Lin Chu, do you accept this condition?"
“Okay, okay, please don’t kill me. I will never do anything stupid again.” Lin Chu nodded hurriedly.
Jiang Yu hummed, "Then, Fang Tu, please stop."
Fang Tu's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and his gaze lingered on Lin Chu for a long time before he angrily put away the scalpel. Before leaving, he did not forget to give Lin Chu a sinister smile, which frightened the latter so much that he screamed again and trembled.
Yu Huaiyao walked over to untie the rope for her. Lin Chu wiped away her tears and thanked Jiang Yu and Yu Huaiyao in a low voice.
On the surface, she still looked pitiful and fragile, and anyone would think she was just an ordinary little girl.
Jiang Yu quietly watched the backs of Yu Huaiyao and her as they walked away together, and suddenly called Yu Huaiyao.
"Wait, Mr. Yu Huaiyao, let me ask you a question."
Yu Huaiyao stopped and turned away.
"What's your job?"
"Archaeologists will do some work to restore cultural relics."
Jiang Yu nodded to show that he understood, and waved goodbye to let them leave.
Lin Chu was puzzled. Although Jiang Yu had a lot of say among these people, it seemed that he firmly held the right to speak. Was it because of something special about him
After he left, he asked from afar: "What happened?"
Jiang Yu: "That Lin Chu is not that simple."
"There are a total of 22 newcomers in this mission, including veterans, senior executives of listed companies, provincial athletes, etc. Yu Huaiyao just now is also an archaeologist. The quality of each newcomer is incomparable to those in the past. It's like they were specially selected."
"So, do you think that the person who can be compared with these people is an ordinary girl who is prone to being infatuated with women?"
Xiao Yuan tacitly agreed with his statement. Ling Tong said, "Now, let's see what she will do."
Lin Chu and Yu Huaiyao walked side by side in the yard, and Yu Huaiyao whispered to comfort her.
If the two of them didn't have their own ulterior motives, this scene would have looked really beautiful.
"So you really know Lu Yanli, right?" Yu Huaiyao suddenly asked.
He put his hand into his pocket and took out the eavesdropping device that Jiang Yuzhi had given him, in order to make the machine more sensitive.
Lin Chu shook her head: "I really don't know him. Besides, the man is gone. His name is Jiang Bai. I'm just... Oh, it's embarrassing to talk about it. I'm just a fangirl. What's wrong with that?"
"Since his name is Jiang Bai, why did he come out of the library? He doesn't look like a person from a small town." Yu Huaiyao said sincerely, "You know, I always want to help you, I won't hurt you. So if you have any other way to survive, please tell me, okay?"
Jiang Yu was sitting in the room, and the voices of a man and a woman came from the headphones.
Lin Chu sounded devastated: "I already knew I didn't know, why do you all think I knew? If I knew he was Lu Yanli, I should have gone up and killed him to complete the mission and go back."
Yu Huaiyao saw that Lin Chu was angry, so he lowered his head to coax her. The two talked for a while and then went back to their rooms.
Lin Chu's performance was impeccable, but... Jiang Yu still found it difficult to let go of his guard against her.
The first time he saw the other person, the alarm in Jiang Yu's heart rang. His intuition told him that he was definitely not an ordinary person.
Yu Huaiyao returned to the room, took out the bug in his hand and placed it on the table.
Just now, he followed Jiang Yu's instructions and asked Lin Chu a question, and then he used his eyes to signal him not to answer. With Lin Chu's intelligence, he quickly guessed what he meant.
I hope I didn't give myself away just now.
Lin Chu also returned to the room and closed the door while sobbing.
She took off her coat and put it beside the bed. From the eavesdropping device far away, Jiang Yu and her husband could hear the rustling sound of someone taking off their clothes. Then, she went to the bathroom to wash up.
There are no flaws.
Lin Chu glanced at the clothes she had placed beside the bed and turned to get on the bed.
She knew that someone had planted a bug on her when she was brought back from custody, but now... she just pretended not to know.
In a hurry, she knew her behavior aroused suspicion, but there was nothing she could do. In order to prevent Lu Yanli from being exposed in a short period of time, she had no choice but to do this.
The reason why Yu Huaiyao listened to her was because she claimed that she had poisoned Yu Huaiyao in this life.
It sounded incredible, but considering the example of how she used the scent of perfume on her body to make An Ru unconscious, Yu Huaiyao dared not disobey.
Lu Yanli’s secret... The mission is to kill him, he must know something.
How can I avoid those people and meet Lu Yanli
All the taskers who were looking for clues outside came back except those who went out. Shen Zhu was the last one. Her face was still a little pale. When she came back, she did not disturb anyone. She just said hello casually and went into the room.
Not until he lay on the bed did Shen Zhu feel like he had been saved.
She still couldn't believe it now, Yan Haoyue actually let her go. She was clearly dead and turned into a fierce ghost, but she didn't kill anyone.
Why
She was not in a good state today, feeling groggy and drowsy. Not only was her brain unable to think normally, but she was also a little irritable. But she didn't notice... or maybe she subconsciously ignored her abnormality, and after a quick wash, she lay down to rest.
She didn't realize that she didn't even look at the mirror when she was washing.
Because whenever she raised her head, she would discover that a piece of skull had been shaved off the top of her head in the mirror, and dense white insects were crawling on it, sucking her brain.
Strange... My head hurts more and more.
Shen Zhu had such a bad headache that he couldn't sleep.
Not only did I have a headache, but I also felt cold all over.
It’s so cold…
Shen Zhu wrapped his underwear tightly, his body trembling.
Why is it so cold? Although it is winter now, the blanket she is wearing is clearly a thick cotton blanket…
Wait! Thick cotton
Shen Zhu touched the thin white cloth covering her body in astonishment. She also realized that she was suddenly in a cramped space.
Where is it? She was clearly lying on the bed sleeping!
In panic, Shen Zhu wanted to sit up, but found that she couldn't. She was trapped in a small, cold space. The touch of her fingertips reminded her of a square coffin.
Where is it
Shen Zhu was lying on her left side. She wanted to start from the other side, but just as she turned over with difficulty, she suddenly stopped.
In front of her eyes… In front of her eyes was Yan Haoyue’s pale face, a pair of out-of-focus eyes that were wide open, with crooked eyeballs, staring at her intently.
She was lying with Yan Haoyue! She was lying with Yan Haoyue!
She knew where she was lying.
“Ahh—”
From the morgue on the third floor underground, a woman's scream was heard.
Lu Yanli hadn't closed his eyes for a long time.
It's not that he doesn't want to sleep, but as soon as he closes his eyes, the sense of crisis will make him subconsciously open his eyes and run away. Even if he has quietly sneaked into the nearby residential building where the tasker is, according to the past rules, the ghosts will attack the tasker first, so he can't fall asleep.
He sat in the room and closed his eyes tentatively.
His eyes, which should have been filled with emptiness and darkness, were instead filled with an overwhelming blood-red color. He immediately opened his eyes again and looked out the window.
What he didn't see was that in his dark pupils, there was a faint blood-red figure. But he guessed it.
Don't let yourself see the mirror image, just close your eyes and you will see it...
Because it is hidden in its own eyes, so when it sees the mirror image, it will also see itself through the mirror image.
Closing your eyes and looking at it for a while will also let it sense its position.
Lu Yanli stared out the window, quietly thinking about when that thing came into his sight. After recalling, he determined a date.
It was when he had just entered the psychic town and found a residential building to rest. At that time, he didn't know why the sleep paralysis suddenly disappeared. Now it seems that it has been hiding in his eyes since then, right
But what exactly is it? If it is a ghost, whose ghost is it
My ears moved slightly, and I heard a slight explosion in the distance.
Later, explosions occurred in other parts of the town.
The first explosion took place in a small residential area with densely populated residential buildings. Most people had already fallen asleep. Suddenly, an explosion sounded, and a small mushroom cloud exploded in the night sky. Everyone lost their lives silently.
"Who the hell is that? He's setting off bombs all day long." Policeman Xiao Li was furious. "If I catch him, I'll shoot him to death."
"Don't worry, hurry up and rescue the wounded!"
Ambulances, police cars, and fire trucks were all dispatched, but the fire was too big. After the firefighters finally put out the fire, the community was already in ruins.
No one survived.
Even though their weird thoughts did not seem lifelike, the method of taking away hundreds or thousands of people at once still made them feel terrified.
Who is it
A figure walked out of a tall building. He looked at the noisy scene a few streets away and slowly walked into the shadows.
In his hand, he was still playing with a barrel of gunpowder that he had not used, and on his back was a saw axe.
It was Lu Yanli's appearance.
He was walking on the street, seemingly trying to avoid something. Suddenly, he dodged a small dagger from behind, which stabbed fiercely into the wall beside him.
Sure enough! It's here again!
He ran away.
