Third-rate Thriller Novelist

Chapter 23: The Vanishing Portrait (final)

Views:

The moment he saw the human bite mark, Shen Yu couldn't help but look at Yue Ze.

The two had a tacit understanding, and ran towards the cemetery next to the villa at the same time. Only three girls remained in place with puzzled faces.

The soil in the cemetery is very damp.

Shen Yu stood in a dirt pit, bending over and throwing out the fresh dirt that had been shoveled down.

Outside the tomb, a heavy cross tombstone fell askew on the ground.

[All Bud's love and dreams are buried here.]

It's where Bud's love lives...and where those poor girls are buried.

"He really buried all his 'love' in it." Shen Yu dug deep and said with a complex expression.

In this wet and muddy pit, he dug up a dozen corpses.

Most of them have already turned into a pair of bones. And only one corpse was fresh, thin and small, without skin, and the bright red muscles on its body had not had time to rot, as if it had just been buried yesterday.

"The skeleton of a man has a narrower pelvis, resembling an upside-down round platform, and a denser bone. However, the pelvis of these corpses is wider, cylindrical, lighter, and the bones of the upper and lower limbs are shorter, obviously belonging to women's bones." .”

Through the identification of the bones, Yue Ze said with certainty: "All the girls buried here are definitely the victims."

As for the only fresh corpse, the skin on its body had already been peeled off. It looked pitiful and terrifying, and its original appearance could not be recognized at all.

"Is she Zhang Keke who disappeared last night?" Shen Yu asked to himself, looking at the body that was obviously buried last night.

But immediately, he shook his head and vetoed his statement: "No, it's not."

According to the plot in the black book, only six of the seven remained, and Zhang Keke did not die last night.

Bud's diary may be false, but novelists' black books, cheap as they are, never deceive them.

Zhang Keke is still alive, and she is a tall, muscular woman.

But the skinned corpse in front of him was thin and small, withered and emaciated, with many bruises on the muscles, more like the result of acquired hunger and abuse.

The most important thing is that the eyes of this female corpse are blind, the eyeballs have been necrotic long ago, and the pus flowing out of the eye sockets sticks to the cheeks.

What is even more bizarre is that all the corpses here have no hand bones or foot bones.

Even this corpse that had just been buried last night had its palms and feet cut off, and its limbs were bare, which was particularly eerie and terrifying.

Yue Ze stepped forward, opened the lower jaw of the female corpse, and said with a gloomy face: "Her tongue was also cut off."

Shen Yu frowned deeply.

What happens when hands and feet are chopped off, eyes are scalded, and tongues are cut off

Blind, the victim can't see the escape path clearly and can't judge the direction to leave.

Without hands and feet, the victim has no chance to escape, and can no longer even stand up, and can only lie on the ground and move his limbs like a dog.

After the tongue was cut, the victim could not make a sound. Even if an outsider passed by, she could not call for help, and could only make a vague roar from her throat.

At this time, Bud peeled off the skins of these girls, glued black dog skins on them, tied them to his feet, raised them as real dogs, and affectionately called them "Alice"...

Shen Yu suddenly wanted to vomit.

No wonder when they first entered this story, the "big black dog" looked sick and dying.

Because that is an innocent girl. After being mutilated for a long time, her body, dignity and spirit have long been destroyed, and she has been tortured by inhuman means to the point of dying.

Bud yelled "Dear Alice", but his actions towards the black dog were very rough, either strangling the neck or kicking hard, all of his actions were taming and demonstrating his authority .

No one could understand her ambiguous cry for help. This poor girl was walking towards death little by little in front of everyone's eyes, swallowing her last breath.

Others didn't even know she was dead, and still suspected that the big black dog was the legendary ghoul.

Shen Yu lowered his head to cover his face, and after a long silence, he raised his head and took a deep breath, and continued calmly: "The latest victim in the tomb should have died last night."

"Last night, Xie Junfei died and Zhang Keke disappeared, but just this morning, the 'big black dog' who had been sluggish all the time suddenly became manic, and his size also increased."

"And Zhang Keke is just a tall woman."

Here's another frightening inference!

According to the book, Zhang Keke did not die, but obviously it was not because she successfully escaped danger, but because that pervert Bud liked to torture women.

The previous victim couldn't bear it anymore and died of weakness. Just at this moment, a strong woman was sent to him.

So the dead girl was buried, Zhang Keke was imprisoned, her hands and feet were cut off, her eyes were scalded, her tongue was cut off, her skin was peeled off, and her dog skin was glued on... becoming Bard's new "Alice".

A group of them went to the hut by the lake this morning, and the "black dog" barked and pounced on them, not because they wanted to attack, but because Zhang Keke was screaming for help after hearing their voices.

Bud said at the time that Alice could understand human language.

So when Lin Miaomiao said "kill that dog", Zhang Keke, who felt that his life was seriously threatened, bit her wrist fiercely under extreme fear.

They always thought that the "black dog" was blind and blunt due to old age, but in fact it was just because, that is, human teeth, of course not as sharp as real canine teeth.

After deducing the above conclusions, Shen Yu said solemnly: "Zhang Keke's current situation is very... terrible!"

No matter what kind of person she was before, what kind of small thoughts she hid, but a real person, a normal woman, shouldn't be treated like this!

Even death row prisoners can get a painless release.

Looking at Shen Yu with a gloomy face, Yue Ze secretly sighed, stepped forward and patted him on the back reassuringly.

"Now we and Bud have completely torn our skins. I will go to the lakeside hut now, looking for an opportunity to save Zhang Keke. You take this opportunity to return to the villa and bring the three girls out."

Yue Ze said: "The story is coming to an end, and now the villa is no longer safe."

He is stronger, so he is naturally more suitable to face Bard than Shen Yu.

Now is not the time to be hypocritical, Shen Yu did not refute, and acquiesced to Yue Ze's assignment, and the two immediately split up.

Yue Ze headed east all the way, while Shen Yu returned to the villa right in front of him.

It was only when he stepped into the gate of the villa that he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The girls who were still chattering before going out were all sitting in the living room tensely, their faces were pale, their lips were trembling, and beads of sweat were rolling down their foreheads. They didn't dare to move or speak, they were all extremely nervous look.

Shen Yu frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Miaomiao, who was the most courageous, had tears in her eyes, her bloodless lips slightly opened and closed, and tremblingly made an extremely small sound.

"Quick... run..."

Before she finished speaking, there was a slow burst of applause behind Shen Yu.

He looked back and saw the well-dressed Bud walking down the stairs, clapping his hands without sincerity, with a fake smile on his face: "Dear Mr. Detective, welcome back."

Shen Yu's face couldn't help but darken.

Miscalculation, I didn't expect Bud to move so fast, he rushed back to the villa ahead of them, and instead missed the most powerful Yue Ze.

At this time, Bud had already walked gracefully to the living room, and turned his emotionless eyes to the three girls sitting: "These three Miss Detectives don't seem to be in a good condition."

The girls, who had been tense all the time, were swept away by his gaze, screamed suddenly, jumped up tumbling, and staggered to hide behind Shen Yu.

"Are you scared? Sure enough, young and beautiful girls are such cute and interesting creatures." He stroked his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said in admiration, "It's a pity that none of you are perfect Alice."

He turned his gaze back to Shen Yu again: "Mr. Detective, have you found my lost Alice?"

Shen Yu stretched out an arm to protect the shivering girl behind him, but still said politely: "Mr. Bard, hasn't your Alice been here all the time?"

Bud's face froze, and his tone became cold: "Mr. Detective, I hope you are not joking. After all, I am a person who can't take jokes."

Shen Yu raised his chin at him: "Why don't you look back?"

Bud's face became even more rigid, but he just stared at Shen Yu in front of him coldly, without looking back.

Of course he knew what was behind him.

Whenever he made a portrait of a girl, and then tortured the girl to death, the mold on the walls would reveal the face of a girl before she died.

The cheeks of more than a dozen people almost covered the entire wall.

His hand holding the glasses trembled slightly, but he still tried to maintain his false decency: "Mr. Detective, you do have a talent for telling jokes."

Shen Yu gently pushed back with his arm, hinting to the girls behind him to find the right time to run away, and said: "Mr. Bard, you have a talent for telling nonsense with your eyes open."

"On the wall behind you, those painful and hideous cheeks, each one is your Alice!"

There has never been "Alice", let alone "A Portrait of Alice", because truly perfect things simply do not exist in this world.

The "Alice" Bud pursued was nothing more than a madman's raving when he was mad, and it was created to satisfy his perverted fantasy needs.

However, such a blatant revelation of the truth is obviously unacceptable to some people who pretend to be affectionate.

As if irritated by this sentence, Bud's expression suddenly became agitated, the veins on his forehead twitched violently, his face flushed, and he screamed almost sharply: "These imperfect women are not worthy of being my Alice—"

"A truly perfect Alice exists!"

He roared almost crazily, his limbs twitched strangely, his body gradually leaned forward, and his original face was distorting.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Yu pushed back hard and shouted, "Run!"

The girls, who were so frightened that their hands and feet went limp, finally held their breath and fled desperately to the villa.

Before Shen Yu could leave in the future, a gust of wind approached behind his head.

He hurriedly rolled over on the spot, narrowly dodging a sharp claw.

Just where he was standing, a monster was crawling on the ground, its face was flushed, and it was panting heavily.

Bud's appearance has completely changed at this time. His body has exploded, and his thick and abrupt muscles have torn the well-made clothing. There are fangs in his mouth, sharp claws protruding from his hands, and his face has become like a dog. generally.

He stood up staggeringly, standing like a human being, but his body was leaning forward, his eyes were full of filth and evil, and he let out a sharp bark from his mouth.

Barking like a dog.

The exit of the villa was blocked, and Shen Yu, who was trapped in the house, had to look him up and down: "So you are the legendary ghoul!"

He still remembered the records in the book.

[In taboo legends, humans can transform into ghouls after a long period of time. ] No wonder Bud would write in his diary every time he killed those girls: "The ghouls are coming!"

It is filth in itself!

The ghoul after Bud's transformation stared at the human in front of him maliciously, with sticky saliva oozing from his mouth, drooping from the corner of his mouth.

Shen Yu turned towards the second floor without moving his expression.

Bud couldn't wait any longer, and with a bark, he rushed towards him suddenly.

It's just that its figure jumped into the air, and it unexpectedly stagnated strangely.

Strands of blood-red hair, like spider webs, entangled it tightly.

Shen Yu closed the page of [Ghost's Thank You Gift], and then ran to the second floor without looking back.

Three seconds, this skill can only last for three seconds!

But it was enough for him to avoid the danger in front of him.

Time was fleeting, and Bard, who was only briefly dragged, quickly broke free from his shackles, and then chased to the second floor with red eyes.

Shen Yu's figure has disappeared in several rooms.

Where is it hidden

As if playing hide-and-seek, Bud pouted the tip of his nose maliciously, and smashed the doors into pieces full of malice.

When it finds that damned detective, it must tear out his guts...

Wait, I found it!

It suddenly pricked up its ears, listening to the subtle movements around it.

An extremely faint sound of music is looming.

It was his favorite "Fur Elise".

The sound of music floated from the direction of its bedroom.

Bud chased after him with great excitement, and he saw the broken bed and the open iron door under the bed.

Behind the iron gate, the music of "Fur Elise" became clearer and clearer, and it was obvious that the source of the sound was in the cellar.

That stupid detective lost his head and asked for his own death in order to avoid it!

Bud almost didn't think about it, so he rushed in ecstatically, and plunged into the deep ground.

Right in the middle of the dark cellar, on the iron workbench, a small music box was placed on it. The lid was opened, and the wooden figurine turned slowly, making out-of-tune tunes.

But there is no one!

Bud's pupils shrank sharply, and just when he was about to turn around, the heavy iron door above his head suddenly closed with a "bang".

Shen Yu outside the door inserted the engineering shovel into the doorknob and locked the door completely.

From the cellar came the sound of angry, high-pitched barking, and the sound of banging on the iron door.

This iron door built by Bud himself was very strong, even if it was knocked out of shape, it still stood still.

Only now Shen Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that he breathed a sigh of relief too early...

Under the continuous violent impact, Bud behind the door probably knew that it was useless, so he was eerily quiet for a few seconds.

Before Shen Yu's doubts arose in his heart, suddenly a piercing sound of a chainsaw sounded from behind the door.

He almost forgot that among the messy tools in the cellar, there was a dangerous chainsaw.

At this time, the chainsaw protruded from the gap in the iron door, and sawed fiercely on the engineer shovel that served as the door bolt. The sound was harsh and noisy, metal collided with metal, and sparks flew everywhere.

Seeing that the engineer shovel is about to be sawn open!

It was too late, Shen Yu's eyes trembled, and then he jumped out from the window on the second floor without hesitation, a roll to buffer the force of falling to the second floor.

The moment he jumped out of the window, the military shovel was sawed open, and the iron door was overturned with a "bang". Bud, holding a chainsaw, suddenly rushed out from behind the iron door, staring out the window with red eyes.

Shen Yu didn't stop at all, and ran towards the cemetery without looking back.

Behind him, even more dangerous ghouls also jumped out of the window, chasing after him.

The cemetery was so close that Shen Yu could even smell the fresh soil.

But the ghoul, who was chasing after him, was only a few feet away from him, and the sharp canine teeth were getting closer and closer, and the stench from the monster's mouth hit his face.

"Get down!"

I heard a clear drink in my ear!

Hearing this familiar voice, Shen Yu didn't even think about it. He instinctively chose to believe that even if there was a deadly ghoul chasing after him, his body would crawl on the ground without hesitation.

Several sharp cold lights passed over his head.

The ghoul behind him suddenly wailed, and its huge body fell to the ground.

Shen Yu took the opportunity to get up and face the person in front of him.

Yue Ze, who had rushed back from the hut by the lake, had a serious expression on his face, with a big dirty dog on his shoulder, sick and lifeless.

Behind him, the three girls who had escaped from the villa before also huddled together tremblingly, staring at the ghoul in front of them.

Yue Ze went to the hut by the lake just now, but found that Bud was not there, only Zhang Keke, who was about to be tortured to death, felt bad at the time, and immediately rushed back with the rescue target, and picked up three by the way. personal.

Fortunately, he was not late.

Three bright scalpels were sharply inserted into the body of the ghoul. Bud rolled on the ground for a long time, howling in pain, and then stumbled up again. Gouged out.

The bloody piece of meat was thrown on the ground, and Bud staggered and continued to approach the crowd, holding the chainsaw tightly with his clawed palms, his eyes became more and more fierce, with a distorted expression of death.

Yue Ze stepped forward, stretched out his arm to protect Shen Yu behind him, and pressed the other hand on the black book again.

The familiar bass vibration sounded again.

Bud was shocked by the sound skill and took three steps back, his mouth and nose were bleeding, obviously in pain.

But this aroused its ferocity even more!

There was a sharp barking sound, and Bud's facial features were bloodshot. Holding a chainsaw in his hand, he rushed over against the impact of the sound, and the chainsaw slammed down on the heads of the two men.

Shen Yu and Yue Ze dodged in time, and the "buzzing" saw blade rotated at high speed, brushing against a strand of Shen Yu's hair.

The hair fell in response to the sound, and fluttered to the ground.

Yue Ze held the black book horizontally in front of him again, flipped the pages in his hands quickly, and stopped his fingers on one of the pages.

[cure, block]

When the skill was activated, he abruptly solidified and condensed the air around the ghoul into bulletproof glass.

Bud continued to rush towards Shen Yu, but he slammed into a glass wall so hard that his dog-like nose almost bled.

But without the slightest hesitation, he directly raised the chainsaw in his hand and slammed it on the glass in front of him.

Like cutting tofu, the rotating saw blade shattered the glass, and the crumbs and debris splashed everywhere.

Both Shen Yu and Yue Ze were slightly taken aback.

After all, it's bulletproof glass, bullets can't pierce it!

After thinking about it, Yue Ze instantly understood that the chainsaw in Bard's hand was definitely a very useful prop.

He turned around again to avoid Bud's angry attack, and shouted to Shen Yu: "The chainsaw is a good prop, I took it from the hands of the ghoul and gave it to you?"

Shen Yu: "...Let's think about how to save our lives first!"

This thing is simply invincible, it is too difficult to deal with!

The girls on the side were watching the battle nervously and fearfully, while Zhang Keke, who was wrapped in dog fur, was dying, and it seemed that he would not live long.

Lin Miaomiao couldn't help backing away because she was afraid of the increasingly vicious ghouls, but accidentally stepped on something.

When she looked back, she saw a gloomy skull being stepped under her feet, and beside her feet, there were countless pale human bones.

Lin Miaomiao was startled, almost instinctively screaming.

But when she realized it, she tightly covered her mouth, stopping the scream that almost blurted out.

Now that the others were fighting the ghouls, she couldn't afford to be a distraction.

She lifted her foot cautiously, and shivered and moved the bone aside.

I don't know if it's her illusion, these pale bones seem to be... trembling slightly

On the other side, the ghoul's attack became more and more ferocious.

Shen Yu dodged the chainsaw again, so he had to activate the only skill he could use at this time.

[Gift of the female ghost]

The bloodshot spread again, temporarily trapping the crazy ghoul, along with the chainsaw.

This chainsaw seemed to be able to saw through any physical defense, but it was not very effective for supernatural skills, so it was always trapped by Shen Yu.

It's a pity that the restraint time is only three seconds.

Seeing that the short three seconds were about to pass, Shen Yu made up his mind and tried to use his willpower to manipulate the blood threads to absorb the blood of the ghoul, so as to prolong the restraint time.

The flexible blood thread was immediately strangled hard, and it was cut into the flesh and blood of the prey, and the color became darker.

But Bud was still barking and struggling as if he didn't feel any pain at all.

Then, the bloodshot that was sucking blood suddenly trembled, and then quickly faded away.

Shen Yu: "???"

In his book, such a sentence emerged.

[Gift from the Female Ghost] Says to you: "I have never sucked such rotten blood!"

"Pooh!"

Shen Yu: "..."

Ancestors! Don't be so picky, okay? !

Just before the bloodshots gradually faded and the ghoul was about to gain the ability to move, Yue Ze suddenly rushed forward, with a sharp scalpel between his fingers, and slashed at Bud's wrist with the chainsaw!

"Plop!"

A palm flew out, along with the chainsaw.

Shen Yu got the timing right, hurried forward to pick up the chainsaw, pointed it at Bud's thick neck, and saw it hard

Bud's neck was bleeding suddenly, his huge body couldn't stand upright, he staggered to and fro, and stumbled everywhere.

The girls hurriedly ran away, away from the ghoul.

Only Zhang Keke, who was half dead, finally gathered some strength and was getting up from the ground. Although he could not see his pus-filled eyes, he was listening attentively to the movement around him.

Although her face was covered with fur, her expression was still full of vicious vengeful anger.

Bard, who was already dying, stumbled to the vicinity of the tomb at this time, his body lying low and his limbs on the ground, as if he wanted to escape desperately.

But what was even more unexpected was that the moment Bud approached Zhang Keke, Zhang Keke, who had already been blind, recognized the enemy's footsteps by virtue of his hearing.

She let out a sharp howl from her tongueless mouth. Although she couldn't stand without her limbs, she pounced like a real dog, bit the ghoul's neck fiercely, and tore it fiercely. .

Bud, who was already at the end of his strength, was bumped by her, his huge body swayed, and he fell straight into the grave that was dug behind him.

At this time, the tomb was filled with the corpses of the victims.

To everyone's surprise, as Bud fell into the tomb, the bones that were originally motionless all trembled slightly.

This is a trembling of excitement, excitement, and uncontrollable hatred, just like Zhang Keke who took revenge just now.

Under everyone's horrifying gazes, these bones began to deform and distort. Among them, the face of the human skull became longer and the teeth became sharper, like a dog.

All the bones swarmed up, piercing Bud's flesh and blood fiercely, surrounding the culprit in the middle, those canine skulls rushed over, biting Bud's body fiercely, as if to tear him to pieces.

Shen Yu looked at the scene in front of him, and recalled the records he had read in the book before.

[Humans can transform into ghouls after a long period of time. ] Bud, the filthy thing, turned into a ghoul, and harmed countless girls.

The girls he killed were randomly buried in the cold and damp cemetery, the place closest to the ghoul, Bard. After an unknown amount of time, the girl's corpse was finally transformed into a new ghoul driven by hatred.

There are more than a dozen ghouls with only bones left!

Under the siege of these skeletal remains, Bard, who was already seriously injured, had no power to resist, and could only scream and be torn to pieces by the skulls.

Zhang Keke had just fallen into the tomb with Bud, and under the siege of the corpses, he was inevitably accidentally injured and let out a weak scream.

Shen Yu hurried to the grave and dragged Zhang Keke out of the chaotic and bloody revenge.

She was tortured to the point where she had only one breath left, but now she was injured more and more, and she had already fallen into a semi-conscious state, and could die at any time!

Shen Yu looked at the woman who was mutilated into a dog in front of him, and couldn't help frowning: "With such a serious injury, can she survive after going out?"

Even if she can survive, she has no hands, no feet, blind eyes, dumb speech, and is doomed to be permanently disabled. I don't know if she can survive the rest of her life

Yue Ze saw his worry, and comforted him: "Don't worry, the injury you suffered in the story, as long as you survive and return to the real world, it will heal naturally without leaving any disabilities."

Shen Yu was overjoyed: "Really?"

Yue Ze: "Yes, but only if you can get out alive."

While the two were talking, the original screams in the tomb gradually subsided.

Shen Yu looked out curiously, and saw a piece of intertwined white bones at the bottom of the pit, but Bud was no longer there, only flesh with blood oozing between the bones remained.

Bud was torn apart!

This long-delayed revenge was finally completed.

At this time, the tomb began to change, the bottom of the pit continued to sink, and finally turned into a black hole of nothingness.

The exit linking to the real world appeared.

And Shen Yu touched the tip of the injured man's nose, feeling that he still had his last breath left.

He and Yue Ze looked at each other and smiled, leading the unconscious Zhang Keke and three anxious girls into the exit.

After a short while, the exit to leave was sealed, and the tomb returned to its original state.

More than a dozen female corpses intertwined with each other surrounded a crushed male corpse, which was exposed in the open-air grave. The scene was extremely horrifying.

It was as if everything had returned to dead silence.

But at this time, footsteps came from afar.

One after another, figures came to this cemetery where a tragic battle had just taken place.

They were all residents of the town who had been invisible for a long time, and they finally appeared at this time, all of them were expressionless, with an extremely indifferent look on their faces, turning a blind eye to the horrifying scene in front of them.

A tall and thin priest stepped out of the church, standing at the forefront of the crowd.

Everyone held a shovel in their hands, and indifferently scooped up the excavated soil and refilled the tomb, burying the skeletons that had turned into ghouls.

After the tomb was filled, everyone left without saying a word.

Only the priest sighed before leaving, "There is one less person in the town."

The tone was flat, as if talking about the weather today.

The crowd dispersed, but the tombstone still fell to the ground, and no one lifted it up again.

The town of Rice regained its calm again.

real world.

"ah

A woman who was lying on the table as if she was taking a nap suddenly woke up and sat up suddenly with cold sweat on her forehead.

Zhang Keke clutched his heart, stared blankly at the window in front of him, panting heavily.

She, she is still alive, she survived... her hands and feet are still there, her eyes are not blind, and she is not wearing dog skin...

The wound and pain in the story seemed to be vivid in her memory. She touched her limbs and face almost frantically, and finally covered her face, letting out a little cry as if to vent.

These are tears of joy for the rest of my life.

For a moment, she really thought that she would be turned into a black dog and stay in the story forever until she was tortured to death.

But fortunately, she came back alive.

"Beep beep!"

The piercing cell phone rang.

There was only one person who would call her at such a time.

Zhang Keke's expression froze, not daring to be negligent, hurriedly wiped off the tears on his face, picked up the phone, and said in the calmest tone possible: "President!"

A processed voice came from the other end, with an inorganic tone like a robot: "Have you entered the novel before?"

Zhang Keke replied cautiously: "Yes."

"Where's Xie Junfei?"

"He died in the story." When mentioning his partner, Zhang Keke only felt uncomfortable, "but his subordinates are lucky to come back alive."

But the person on the other end didn't seem to care about her life or death, and just continued to ask: "Have you seen this person in the story?"

The phone "buzzed" and a photo was sent.

The man in the photo is young and handsome, the sun is refreshing, the black eyes are like the sparkling lake water in the warm sun, and he is smiling.

As soon as Zhang Keke's gaze came into contact with the photo, his pupils trembled.

The person in the photo is one of the people who saved her in the story, and his pseudonym is "Peppermint".

"This person is an extremely important sacrifice of our Black Dragon Association. Any believer in the meeting who encounters this person in the story must report to the higher authorities in time." The president's voice continued, "Did you meet this person this time?"

Sacrifice

Zhang Keke trembled even more. She knew what would happen to those who were targeted by the organization in the past.

But this person in the photo, this person... has just saved her in the story, saved her from the incomparable torment and pain...

Belief in the Black Dragon Society and personal conscience collided fiercely in his mind, and Zhang Keke's hand holding the phone was trembling.

Finally, before she stagnated to the point where the president became suspicious, Zhang Keke cleared her throat, and said in a low voice to the phone: "I haven't seen it before."

"Yeah." Probably didn't report any hope at all, the president just said routinely: "From now on, no matter whether it is in the real world or in the story, any clues about this person must be reported in time."

The president hung up the call, leaving Zhang Keke sitting there, staring at the phone in a daze.

After a while, she covered her head, howled in pain, raised her hands weakly, and confessed to the illusory god: "The great Black Dragon God..."

"Please forgive my deceit."

Opening his eyes, a face full of mist appeared in front of him.

Zhang Cuihua held a cigarette in her mouth, exhaled a smoke ring, and greeted him, "Are you back?"

Shen Yu rubbed between his eyebrows weakly, and sat up from the bed: "Don't enter my dormitory at will... Also, I want to report to the minister that you smoke secretly."

The cigarette in Comrade Cuihua's mouth was almost frightened: "No way! Are you so inhumane? I just went to accompany you on a mission, so I dared to hide in your room for a smoke... Why did you come back so quickly? "

"It's hard to explain in one word. The big boss in the horror novel this time is too cruel and perverted, so the storyline progresses very quickly." Shen Yu had just left the horror story and was in a bad mood, so he scratched his hair irritably.

He picked up his black book and flipped through it.

"The Vanishing Portrait"

[Congratulations to novelist Peppermint for completing his second horror novel.][Acquired props: plain engineering shovel]

[Girls appreciate you for giving them a chance to get revenge, so I present you with a truncated sapper shovel.][The use of props, the engineer shovel can be used unlimited times, it can be used to chop people, dig soil, chop firewood, open beer bottles... You can even use it to fry eggs!][ps: A sapper shovel that was sawed off and then repaired, tsk tsk! Really picky! !][Skill acquired: Emily's Music Box]

[The kind Emily especially thanks you for preventing the tragedy from spreading, so I will give you a music box.][Skill use, the music box that appears anytime and anywhere will attract the attention of all the characters in the book. It lasts for more than five seconds, has a very mocking effect, and can be used unlimited times.][ps: Be careful, the sound of this music box is out of tune, it's terrible!][Acquired Skill: Killer Chainsaw]

[Mr. Bard hates what you did. He didn't want to give you the chainsaw at all, but you snatched it away.][The use of skills, the indestructible chainsaw, any physical defense and barrier, is a piece of cake in front of this chainsaw, but it cannot destroy the supernatural object. It can be used five times, and the time is not limited each time. ][ps: Hehe! The least stingy gift this time came from the villain? Although Mr. Bard is not voluntary, but who cares! Anyway, he has been broken into a puddle of meat. ] After obtaining three skill props in a row, the expression on Shen Yu's face finally relaxed a little.

At this time, Zhang Cuihua only had a little cigarette butt left in her mouth.

She continued with a cigarette butt in her mouth, "I'm waiting for you to come back this time, but there is actually one more important thing."

"There was a tourist bus traveling out of the province. When it was driving on the road, the whole vehicle of tourists suddenly disappeared, together with the driver and the tour guide. The vehicle lost control and rushed into the field on the side of the road and turned off. It was only discovered the next day."

"We suspect that this is yet another case of missing persons due to horror fiction, and we've locked down the fictional stories most of them are likely to enter."

"Travel bus out of the province?" Shen Yu suddenly remembered the three girls he met in the last story. The three of them were drawn into the novel world on the coach.

"Among these tourists, are there three names, Lin Miaomiao, Li Qingqing, and Wang Tongtong?" he asked.

Zhang Cuihua raised her eyebrows: "How do you know? Among the tourists in the car, only these three girls have been found. They just appeared suddenly. The police immediately called our department."

At this time, a deep voice sounded from behind her: "We met them in the story."

Hearing this sound, Zhang Cuihua suddenly felt struck by lightning, and looked behind her, her voice faltered: "Head...you, when did you come back?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she immediately realized that she had asked a stupid question.

When can I come back? He went with Peppermint, so naturally he came back together!

Yue Ze looked at the anxious Zhang Cuihua, and gave a rare gentle smile: "Comrade Zhang Cuihua, how many cigarettes did you smoke today?"

Zhang Cuihua immediately jumped up, threw the cigarette butt in her mouth on the ground and stamped it out: "I said that I just picked up the cigarette butts thrown on the ground for fun, do you always believe it?"

"Believe it, why don't you believe it?" Yue Ze smiled more meaningfully, "From tomorrow on, you will also stop drinking alcohol."

"No-"

In the courtyard, Zhang Cuihua's shrill screams could be heard.

After the scream, even though she was unwilling, Comrade Zhang got into the mood instantly when it came to business.

She pulled out a note.

"hide and seek"

"What is this?" Shen Yu asked curiously.

Zhang Cuihua: "The information obtained from the black market outside is most likely the name of the story that the tourists entered, and I and the first two need to enter the rescue."

"Especially, this large-scale disappearance of people, judging from the above analysis, the Black Dragon Society may be involved." She added.

Black Dragon Society

Mentioning the Black Dragon Society, Shen Yu's expression slowly changed.

"Count me in." He stared at the note and said.

Yue Ze frowned slightly: "The story this time is too dangerous, your qualifications are not old enough, it's best not to enter rashly. And you just finished a novel, you need a period of training..."

Shen Yu raised his hand and grabbed his sleeve, looked up at him, his dark eyes quivered slightly: "Count me in."

He softened his tone, almost pleading.

Yue Ze looked at him for a long time, finally looked away, sighed softly, and replied in a low voice: "Okay."

Shen Yu immediately raised the corners of his mouth in surprise, his night eyes seemed to be filled with starlight.

Zhang Cuihua who was watching: "..."

Head, what about your past principles

Tsk! The color makes the mind faint.
