Chapter 192 Accommodation
The three fishermen were stooped, wearing worn and shabby short jackets, and they were surprisingly dirty, as if they hadn't washed their clothes for many years.

And their faces are the most surprising. The fishermen's heads are very flat, their eyeballs are bulging and protruding, and their pupils are gray and dim. At this time, they are staring at Mu Lan motionlessly. Their noses are very flat, and they seem to ignore this organ when viewed from the side. In addition, they also have a pair of underdeveloped ears. Such a pair of weird facial features squeezed on one face makes people feel physiologically uncomfortable. comfortability.

It's not just the facial features that are weird, their hands are big, but the fingers are short compared to the rest of the palm, which is a bit eye-catching. After a fisherman glanced at Mu Lan and the others, he turned his back again. Noticed that the soles of his feet were also big, and the shoes were flat and long, surprisingly awkward.

As the distance continued to approach, Lin Yiyi could also see their appearance clearly. She just wanted to exclaim and forcibly endured it. She hurriedly asked Mu Lan with a soul link:

"Deformed? Or not human?"

Mu Lan didn't answer, and she didn't know how to answer.

After entering the town of Herzros, the buildings on both sides became clear. It was not as dead as imagined. Except for the abandoned houses that had collapsed on the outside, the internal roads of the town were clear, and the duplex buildings on both sides had vague kerosene. Lights, a few wisps of black smoke rising from the chimney, and there are actually several shops in the center of the town in front of the road. The lights are on at this time, giving a feeling of bright lights.

Using the detection technique, there are people living in the houses on both sides, some are eating, some are drinking heavily, but they don't speak, which is why the small town that is clearly inhabited is so quiet.

Mu Lan continued to walk forward. Within the detection range, she roughly outlined the structure of Hezros Town. This is a small town with a main road, which is the road they are walking on. Several small roads are also divided into several blocks, with grocery stores, hotels, restaurants and clinics, and there is a small church in the center of the town.

A few children playing occasionally appeared on the main road, as well as townspeople who looked at the seaside and said nothing. After Mu Lan and his party appeared, they all turned their eyes over.

It was a strange feeling to be watched by such strange-looking human beings. Mu Lan was also looking at them at the same time. She found that the children looked normal, while the adults were similar to those three fishermen. Human appearance.

Looking back, an unspeakable sense of familiarity suddenly appeared. Mu Lan sniffed the damp and salty air, which was very similar to the place she had been to in her dreams. She unconsciously looked at the sea level. Calm, as the sun has just set, the sea is flushed red, and the rugged islands and reefs in the distance have turned black.

"Will this be the place in the dream?"

"What?" Lin Yiyi didn't hear Mu Lan's self-talk, she asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Mu Lan shook her head, throwing away those uncomfortable feelings, and then said to Leonard: "Let's find a hotel to stay in first, and then visit the one where Dr. Bourne is visiting tomorrow."

"Okay!" Leonard gripped the suitcase tightly, and led the group towards the hotel in the center of the town.

The signboard of the hotel says "Good Times", and it is covered with spider webs, as if it has not been cleaned for a long time. The wooden door is very clean, but the carpet in front of the door is old but not messy, indicating that someone has lived there recently .

Ah Feng pushed open the heavy wooden door, and the bell rang.

The environment inside is a bit gloomy, there is only one lamp placed on the counter, and the interior furnishings are all hidden in the darkness.

There was a musty smell in the hotel, and Mu Lan sniffed, a little unaccustomed to the air here.

"Is anyone there?" Lin Yiyi shouted inside.

No one responded, Lin Yiyi's voice echoed in the corridor, making the atmosphere extremely quiet.

Mu Lan looked at the glass display window behind the cashier. There were some old photo frames with a sense of age. They were all black and white photos. The person who appeared the most was probably the boss here. These were photos of him with different people.

Most of these photos were taken in the town of Hedros, including the pier we passed just now, and the white church. What is surprising is that the people in the photos are not so weird, or some are weird and some are not.

The first photo is obviously the youth of the innkeeper. He looks like an ordinary person, with a deep face and a green stubble, smiling at the camera.

The rest of the photos were taken when he became an adult, and the appearance of the innkeeper began to change. His eyes became bigger, his high cheekbones seemed to be unable to hide, his expression was lifeless and dull, and his face was covered with whiskers.

The last photo should be a recent photo of him, and it is also the oldest one. When he reached middle age, he began to show a typical "Hezros Town-style appearance", developing towards a non-human state, with a flat head, nose bridge, and about to protrude Big eyes came out and fell to the ground, while his whiskers disappeared.

When Mu Lan was observing the photos, footsteps could be heard from the depths of the corridor, and a person with a large bunch of keys pinned to his waist slowly walked over with a ledger in his hand.

"Are you staying?"

The voice was hoarse like the noise of an old radio, and the face of the innkeeper suddenly appeared from the darkness. The light shone on half of his face, and the looming flame hit that ugly face, making the atmosphere even more eerie.

Mu Lan tried hard to observe his face. He was a bit older than the last photo, and his image was also more difficult to describe. There were a few sparse hairs on the bald flat head, and his pupils were pale and unfocused. Although he was old, Even though he showed off his skin, his skin was surprisingly good, with no wrinkles visible.

I always felt that the people in Herzros Town looked like an animal. Mu Lan thought about it, but she couldn't figure it out.

"Of course I'll stay in the hotel!" Lin Yiyi said carelessly, without any fear.

"You don't have a reservation and it costs three pounds to stay a night."

Needing to pay, Lin Yiyi immediately looked at Leonard.

"It's too expensive, the same price as a hotel in London." Professor Leonard muttered, a little dissatisfied.

The innkeeper didn't answer, but just kept looking in the direction of several people. His eyes without pupils made it hard for Mu Lan to tell who he was looking at.

"Okay." Professor Leonard also knew that it was not time to bargain. In this remote town where he was unfamiliar, it would be nice if he could not sleep on the streets. He muttered and took out the six-star list from his pocket, and patted it on the counter. .

"Find two better rooms."

The innkeeper looked at the banknotes by the light, then flipped through the ledger for a while, ticked somewhere, and then took out the two keys.

There were two keys lying on the innkeeper's wide and flat palms. Leonard hesitated for a moment, and took them carefully, for fear of being tightly grasped by those two inhuman hands.

"212 and 213 on the second floor." The innkeeper stuffed the banknotes into his pocket, and then walked back into the darkness, his hoarse voice echoing in the corridor.

"Outsiders, remember not to stay outside at night, I wish you good night."

"Pretty polite!" Lin Yiyi curled her lips after seeing the innkeeper leave.

Stepping on the creaking stairs, Mu Lan recalled every detail of entering Hezros Town, where there was a strange feeling everywhere, and she looked at the silent A Feng.

"What do you think about the town of Hezros?"

"The people here are a bit weird." Afeng said thoughtfully.

"You don't have to say it!" Lin Yiyi rolled her eyes, "I believe the people here are alien visitors."

"Since we've arrived in Hedros Town, let's investigate tonight." Mu Lan thought of the innkeeper's advice, no matter if it was good intentions or inducements, she must find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible.

If you want to solve the puzzle, you must dispel the haze that hangs over the town.
