Chapter 32 Children
"What happened?" The puppeteer moved quickly from Room [-] to Room [-]. It didn't take a few minutes for her to help the fallen woman, but she caught a glimpse of the scene in the room from the corner of her eye.
This is... the couple who called the police?
The puppeteer's eyes were fixed, and he quickly moved to the corpse, ignoring the crying woman and child.
"The rope was tied casually, as if in a hurry," she squatted down, and first checked the thick rope tied on the men and women, "but it was tied very tightly, with many knots tied, it didn't seem like it was tied up after struggling. , I may have done it while they were asleep, but I was afraid that they would wake up and struggle halfway, so their movements were a little flustered."
The puppeteer didn't know if Su Mingxuan was nearby, but just to be on the safe side, she whispered what she saw.
"The wound on the body should be a knife wound. The length of the wound is about three centimeters. It is not a small knife." The girl stretched out her hand, opened the wound on the corpse, and pressed her fingers on it, "The depth is not deep, and the murderer is not strong enough The appearance, combined with the fact that he was tied up in his sleep, does not rule out that it was a woman who killed the victim."
She checked carefully: "There are not many incisions, but most of them are pierced into arteries. There is a high probability that they died of blood loss."
The puppeteer raised his head, looked at the blood splattered around him, and continued: "In terms of height, the first cut should be on the carotid artery."
"It feels like a man-made crime." She lowered her head in thought. "But it's also possible that it was a ghost. After all, they called the so-called 'police' not long ago."
"Why do I feel that she is suspicious of me as a 'ghost'?" The fraudster patted Su Mingxuan's shoulder, put his hand on it familiarly, and pointed at himself with one hand.
"God knows if you did it." Su Mingxuan moved his shoulders and shook off the opponent's hand, "In the darkness, only you know what you did."
"Isn't it?" The young man tilted his head and 'looked' at the fraud master, "Does your mouth not tell a lot of lies? I'm afraid you don't even know which words you say are true."
"Hey——I'm really honored to be so feared by the famous Lai." The fraudster said, and changed the subject, "Speaking of which, do you want your little follower to drive people out like last time? Take a look in your room."
"I don't need it this time." Su Mingxuan replied lightly, "There are no clues in this room."
"You know again?"
"The voices I heard are not just the voices of children." Su Mingxuan paused, "There are also various dragging and collision sounds. But the puppeteer only mentioned the problems on the corpse, but did not mention the problems in the room, that is, Say, the room is tidy now."
"Whether what I heard and saw is true remains to be considered."
While they were communicating, several more residents arrived one after another.
Zhou Cheng followed behind the puppeteer, and now he is comforting women and children.After that came the old landlord with the dog in his arms.
"I said, you can't call the police, you can't call the police." The old man looked at the dead body without any surprise, but angrily knocked on the floor with his crutches a few times, "Really, I haven't even paid the rent, so I'm dead. unlucky."
"I've lived here for so many days, and I only paid for two days, and said that I'm a white-collar or something rich, and I'm in arrears with the rent." The old man spat twice in the direction of the corpse, "Bah" twice, About to turn around and leave.
"Wait, old man." The puppeteer stopped him, "How many days do you think they lived here?"
"I've lived here for many days." The old man looked down at the girl, "I just paid the rent for these two days."
two days?
The puppeteer quickly asked, "What day is it now?"
It's just that the old man didn't answer her question anymore, and left quickly, his legs and feet were so agile that he didn't look like an old man in his seventies.
"I'll follow up and take a look." The fraud master volunteered, "This old man looks very interesting. You and your little follower are here, and ask the residents for news."
"Bye bye~" Before Su Mingxuan could speak, this guy said hello and slipped away, followed behind the old man, and quickly disappeared at the end of the curve.
Forget it.
Su Mingxuan withdrew his short-term thoughts of chasing after him, and compared to exploring the landlord's secrets, the immediate matter was more important.
"Did you find any clues?" Seeing the puppeteer standing there, Zhou Cheng stepped forward and asked, "The two days that the old man said just now mean... we have been in the dungeon for two days?"
His expression was a little confused: "But, we haven't been here for a while, how come it's only been two days."
Ok?
Su Mingxuan's heart skipped a beat.
If it is said that two days have passed since they entered the dungeon, doesn't that mean that the darkness represents night time?
"The dungeon name is [Early Morning Apartment]... If the dark period represents night, then when the light is on is morning, every morning, will there be dead people?"
So what did these dead people die for?
Just as Su Mingxuan was about to approach the room, he heard the puppeteer speak.
"Can I ask you, why did you leave the room?" The girl who checked the corpse approached the woman, "Obviously...yesterday, it must be yesterday. People died yesterday, didn't they?"
"You brought the child..." She glanced at the little boy, "If you don't stay in the room, what are you doing?"
"I don't know." After being comforted by Zhou Cheng, the woman's emotions calmed down a lot. She sat by the wall with her child, lowered her head, and said softly, "It's just that suddenly, I really want to go out, and I really want to go out." Come here. A voice has been talking, and I feel inexplicably annoyed."
"So I came out with the baby."
"What did that voice say?" The puppet master narrowed his eyes and asked.
She really thinks that the residents here are very strange, and the first person who finds the dead body may be very scared, but——
The girl glanced at the child who had quieted down.
But it won't take long for them to regain their calm.
The female student said that the bloody scene in her memory hadn't been erased, but in her opinion, the pale acting skills were not as good as her own, it might as well be that Zhou Cheng's acting skills were better.
And the other residents are even more outrageous, not afraid at all.
"It said—" the woman slowly raised her head, her eyes were foggy, and she hesitated to recall, "It said that I did heinous things, I did acts of kindness, and I did..."
"The right choice."
"Woo..." When the woman said this, the child she was holding burst into tears, and the child's muffled voice sounded again in the corridor that had just quieted down. He seemed to have something stuck in his throat, choking He stuck out his tongue with difficulty, desperately trying to vomit out the contents, struggling to get out of the woman's arms, and fell to the ground, his eyes turned white in pain.
"What's going on?!" The puppeteer didn't care to think about the meaning of that sentence, his face changed, and he was about to bump into the child two steps forward.
"No...no, don't touch him, don't touch him!" The woman threw herself on the child, picked him up in a panic, stood up from the ground, and ran forward, so fast that the puppeteer couldn't catch her clothes corner.
"Damn it." The puppeteer ran away, stomped his feet, and chased after him angrily.
Su Mingxuan who heard the movement was faster than her, and followed up the moment the woman picked up the child, but the speed of the other party was astonishingly fast, and Su Mingxuan almost failed to keep up.
The child's distressed whimpers became louder, and the extent of the struggle in her mother's arms also increased, causing the woman's running speed to slow down. Just when Su Mingxuan was about to touch the woman's arm, the boy broke free from his embrace, fell to the ground.
"Om-"
A huge roar pierced through Su Mingxuan's eardrums, stinging the nerves in his brain.
After the buzzing sound, all kinds of sounds were stuffed into his brain in a chaotic and forceful manner, as if someone had cut open the skull bit by bit with a knife, poured water into it, and closed every gap in his brain. It was filled to the brim, and a heavy, swollen feeling that was about to explode filled Su Mingxuan's senses.
"Oh!" Su Mingxuan covered his head and staggered.
The child's sobs were still in his ears, and his mind was filled with indistinct ravings, distracting all his attention.
Su Mingxuan closed his eyes forcefully, his brows were almost knit together, he propped one hand on the wall, trying hard to drive out the voice in his head, but it was useless.
He had no choice but to open his eyes with difficulty, trying to see the scene in front of him clearly.
But what caught his eyes was not that corridor—it couldn't be said that it wasn't, but what Su Mingxuan saw now was the corridor covered by that pitch-black, viscous liquid.
Familiar and unfamiliar stench rushed into his nostrils, full of nameless liquid wriggling on the wall, like fresh maggots, clinging to the human intestines, greedily sucking nutrients, unsatisfied to push forward, smashing the walls of the corridor , Most of the floor corroded.
This is……
Su Mingxuan's eyes widened.
The pain in his head was still going on, but he had already gotten used to it, Su Mingxuan lifted his foot and shook off the liquid stuck to his shoes.
This thing... looks familiar.
Su Mingxuan dipped a bit of viscous liquid in his hand, watched it solidify rapidly in his palm, and turned into a slightly sticky jelly substance, tightened his hands, and the squeezed jelly melted little by little It turned into powder and floated to the ground.
He remembered - this was the one he had seen in the Lost City of Mechanisms, the thing he used to open the door.
Before he could think about why the things that appeared in the previous dungeon appeared here, the child's sobs sounded again. Su Mingxuan looked up, and saw the woman falling asleep, half of her body submerged in the liquid, being trapped The worm-like thing swallowed it.
And the child was twitching crazily at the side, his widened eyes were bloodshot, he squeezed out a little pain from his throat, scratched his neck with both hands, the black and disgusting liquid flowed from the child's wide open mouth The overflow stopped, and soon submerged the lower half of the child|body.
Su Mingxuan's expression changed, he stepped on the liquid, reached out, and grabbed the child's arm.
……
The puppeteer who hadn't chased for a few steps watched the woman and the child disappear in front of her, and she was forced to stop, with a gloomy expression on her face.
"Disappeared again... It seems that it's not that the resident is elusive, but that there is a space problem in this dungeon."
The girl looked at the No. [-] room next to her, and decided to go back to investigate the couple's corpse first.
Just as he was about to lift his foot, the door of room ten opened.
The room was pitch black, two pairs of eyes peeped out through the crack of the door, no light could be reflected in the cloudy pupils, a small hand was clinging to the door, and the voices of two little girls sounded at the same time.
"Sister...have you seen our parents?"
This is... the couple who called the police?
The puppeteer's eyes were fixed, and he quickly moved to the corpse, ignoring the crying woman and child.
"The rope was tied casually, as if in a hurry," she squatted down, and first checked the thick rope tied on the men and women, "but it was tied very tightly, with many knots tied, it didn't seem like it was tied up after struggling. , I may have done it while they were asleep, but I was afraid that they would wake up and struggle halfway, so their movements were a little flustered."
