Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 548

Just when Lin Sanjiu turned around and jumped up, her eyes went dark, and the two headlights disappeared instantly.Amidst the sound of rumbling rain, there was still a pitch-black road ahead, with no people and naturally no cars.

"Phantom... hallucination?"

Or a copy setting?
She couldn't remember exactly: when was the car built? At the end of the 19th century, were there any cars?
Panting for breath, Lin Sanjiu wiped the water off her face again—the rain was so heavy that even though she kept wiping her face, she still couldn't keep her eyes open.

Just when she was full of doubts, a "click" sound from stepping on the water immediately shocked her back to her senses.As soon as Lin Sanjiu looked up, she found that when she stood up, she immediately fell into the eyes of the killer; at this time, the black figure was striding towards her, even in the dark rainy night, the long knife in his hand was too big. A flash of cold light flashed across.

She immediately ran away—the wound on Lin Sanjiu's shoulder was doused by the rain, and it became hotter and hotter in the cold, as if it was about to be infected.She didn't dare to get entangled with Jack the Ripper with injuries, so she ran and shouted, hoping to alarm the nearby residents.

She wasn't slow, and Jack the Ripper had never been able to catch up with her; however, after running for a while, Lin Sanjiu gradually realized something was wrong.

She had been running wildly on the street for nearly seven or eight minutes, and the heavy footsteps behind her were still following her, as if the black shadow was not afraid of being discovered at all.But that's not the worst part.

Lin Sanjiu could hear footsteps tens of meters away, so why was she shouting at the top of her throat, but no one heard her?

The surrounding area is getting darker and darker, and the buildings are submerged in the pitch black, as if they have melted away.A few minutes ago, there were obviously still a few dim lights of street lamps, but now they have all receded into the darkness.Lin Sanjiu couldn't see anything clearly, only the small section of road under his feet was in front of him, and his ears were filled with the sound of rain, footsteps, panting, water splashing...

She could feel the man behind her getting closer—the hair on the back of her neck seemed to stand up following his hot breath—

Not knowing whether she was slow or the man was fast, Lin Sanjiu turned around abruptly, turned around and rushed into a nearby alley.The blood exploded in the muscles, and she felt that she had burst out with great strength, but she didn't run very far - only heard a hoarse laugh behind her, and a big hand attacked her shoulder.

For some reason, he did not use the knife in his hand.

Lin Sanjiu's speed was fast and her reaction was quick. Originally, she couldn't touch her at all; however, the hand suddenly landed on her shoulder, and with a heavy pull, her foot slipped, and she was immediately thrown to the ground .Lin San hit his head on the ground after drinking, his vision faltered and blurred, he slowly turned sideways, and it took him a few seconds to regain his senses.

The black shadow was already blocking her like an iron tower, and it looked even taller.The tip of the knife in his hand glowed silver in the rain, and the blood stained when he stabbed Lin Sanjiu just now had been washed away long ago.

The black shadow seemed to say something vaguely, bent down and pressed her shoulder, and immediately pressed her face into the puddle on the ground.

Lin Sanjiu twisted his neck to the limit, trying to see the face behind him clearly from the corner of his eye—but the killer was still wearing the same hat, which was drenched by the rain and hung down low, completely blocking his face in the shadow .

"The fifth one," he said hoarsely, his breath still heavy amidst the sound of the rain; the knife in his right hand was raised—but at this moment, Lin Sanjiu suddenly turned his head back, and immediately slammed the back of his head It hit him on the chin.As soon as it hurt, the black figure couldn't help but let out a low cry, and loosened his hands slightly, leaving a precious gap for her; taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Sanjiu struggled hard, propping himself up on the ground and flipping over.

She obviously used all her strength to feed her, but the blow just now only caused Soi Ying a pain.

Not only that, all of Lin Sanjiu's struggles and resistance seemed to be put into an invisible cover and restrained; she was still able to punch and kick out, but when it landed on that person, somehow Changed taste -

... She looked like an ordinary woman with little strength.

The rain was still falling heavily, blackening everything in sight, and there were no people or buildings nearby; it seemed that at this moment, Lin Sanjiu and her life were trapped in this dark, uninhabited corner , facing a tall and burly killer alone.

When Lin Sanjiu was severely punched in the lower abdomen, Lin Sanjiu felt blood rushing up all over her body, as if her eyeballs were about to burst out—if the victims back then could talk, they would have told her that they had also experienced It's the same pain that finally dies, right?
Will she die likewise?

As soon as this idea came to her mind, there was a sudden bright light in front of her; Lin Sanjiu couldn't help squinting her eyes when she was suddenly hit by a strong light, and her eyes were blurred for a moment—then the sound of the engine roared, and the black figure suddenly Startled, he immediately stepped back a few steps.

"Hurry up and get in the car!"

The young man's anxious roar came from behind the two beams of bright white light.Lin Sanjiu barely opened his eyes, and could only barely see the two dazzling headlights and the raindrops in the lights in this pitch-black world.

It turned out that it wasn't a hallucination just now, it was him who drove the car——

"Hurry up, it's too late!"

The young man yelled again, and Lin Sanjiu reacted immediately; she quickly glanced at the black figure, and seeing that the man seemed to be charging up again, she hurriedly turned around and rushed towards the old-fashioned car, opened the door and drilled it. went in.

Amidst the sharp sound of the engine, the car backed all the way and exited the narrow path.As soon as the young man turned the steering wheel, the car immediately turned almost ninety degrees in a hurry, so that the driver's position was aligned with the alley - but the young man did not step on it, but just stared blankly at the alley, staring at the alley. people in the alley.

"Let's go, what are you doing?" Lin Sanjiu felt pain all over her body, her muscles were trembling, as if she had degenerated back to before the doomsday—no, even at that time, her physical fitness was much better than now many.

"Ah, oh," the young man shuddered, and then he remembered to step on the gas pedal, his voice full of uncontrollable excitement: "I, I saw him, I saw him! I know who Jack the Ripper is! "

Lin Sanjiu was taken aback, and quickly turned her head—but at this time the car had already driven far away, and she only vaguely saw a figure pounced in the alley behind, but she couldn't see the appearance clearly.

"Who the hell is he?" As soon as she relaxed, her throat suddenly became hoarse: "Is it someone we have met?"

The young man ignored her, as if he was still immersed in excitement.Lin Sanjiu asked him again, but seeing that he still didn't answer, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked, "Where did you find this car? There were already cars at the end of the 19th century?"

"Yes," the young man replied this time, his voice still trembling because of excitement: "It seems that cars were manufactured during this period of time."

Lin Sanjiu didn't remember this at all, she just bit her lip and was stunned for a few seconds; she thought for a while, then sighed: "It seems that knowing who the killer is is not enough, the game is not over yet—you go now Where should I go?"

While they were talking, the car kept whizzing forward. Except for the road ahead illuminated by the headlights, the darkness outside just now gradually faded away, and the buildings on both sides of the road reappeared in the rainy night. out of outline.When the field of vision changed from thick darkness to dimness, the young man said, "I'm going to the intersection of Chatham Road and Princess Road."

Lin Sanjiu was startled.

She had never heard of these two place names, but it did not prevent her fingertips from trembling suddenly.

...Under the slightly brighter light, she saw many familiar things: fuel gauge, odometer, hand brake——

In front of the car window, there was a dangling statue of Bodhisattva and a sign that read "Entry and Exit Safe"; she was sitting in the co-pilot, and a taxi driver's work card with a photo was placed opposite her.The words on the work card are blurred, but the face can still be discerned in the black and white photo - Danfeng eyes, double eyelids, it is the young man beside him.

Lin Sanjiu turned around sharply, and happened to meet the pair of red phoenix eyes in the photo.

"We've known each other for so long, it seems like we haven't exchanged names yet." The young man grinned at her, "Let's get to know each other. My surname is Lin, and my name is Lin Guoyu."

The car door was locked with a "click".

"...But later, I changed my name. My name is now Lin Guoyun. Life is just passing by." The young man turned his head and smiled: "...in Hong Kong, they also call me 'Rainy Night Butcher'. "
