Chapter Forty-Eight: The Past of Heishui Village (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
"Oops!"
It was the patient's scream, Chu Ge picked up the crowbar and smashed it on his arm, and with a miserable howl of pain, the hand immediately retracted and let go of Wang Yingjun.
"It's good to have you here. ”
Chubby breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't dare to pull aside, and instead walked along the middle of the road, making sure that the hands that came out of the cell couldn't catch him.
On the contrary, Chu Ge was still walking close to the cell all the way, and he originally wanted to arrest him, but when he was electrocuted with an electric baton, those patients were directly electrocuted to the point of foaming at the mouth, lying on the ground and twitching.
"You are electricity, you are light~"
Chu Ge hummed a little song while pressing the button of the electric baton, this way was like sparks and lightning, and after that, no one even dared to stretch out his hand to him, and every patient was frightened away from him.
"What are we going to do next?" Fatty asked.
A smile appeared on Chu Ge's face and said, "Let's go meet an old friend." ”
They said they were old friends, but they were actually the patients they had met on the second floor before.
The patients on the second floor of Arkham Asylum are not all patients with strange scales, and some of them are normal psychopaths.
Of course, compared to this illness that will make people become non-human and non-fish monsters, even if it is mentally ill, it can be regarded as a normal person.
For example, William Liszt, who claimed to be from time travel, what he talked about every day was to repeat that he was really a normal person, and he just slept and crossed over.
Emmm...... Sure enough, crazy people like to say that they are normal people.
And then there's Jack Johnson, who fantasizes about himself as a fictional character who thinks he's Batman's nemesis, the Joker, the underground king of Gotham City.
However, it was precisely because of his help that Chu Ge and Wang Yingjun could know how to escape from the madhouse.
In the list of patients in the file folder just now, Chu Ge did not find the names of William and Jack, and he did not see them in the underground prison.
Perhaps, Jack escaped with William?
And if he's not mistaken, there must have been a few Monster Scaly Sick on the second floor, and they might have been transferred to the underground prison as well.
"Chu Ge. Just as he was thinking nonsense, Wang Yingjun patted him on the shoulder, and the little fat hand pointed to a cell not far away, and there was a familiar name on the sign at the door of the cell.
James Grant.
Chu Ge still remembers this patient, James has a severe perceptual impairment, often has auditory hallucinations, and it is difficult to communicate with him normally.
Now that there were not many clues to go, Chu Ge decided to try to talk to him.
"Mr. Grant......"
Chu Ge stood outside James's cell and called the other party's name softly, but no one paid attention to him, as if there was no one in the cell.
But Chu Ge could faintly see a figure sitting in the corner of the cell in the dark, so he screamed again.
"Mr. Grant!"
This time, the man in the cell finally moved, and he saw the figure stand up and slowly come to the baring of the cell door, and in the light of the underground prison he finally saw the other person's appearance.
The previous James had tired eyes, his eyes were full of bloodshots, and the dark circles under his eyes were very thick, and he looked like he had cultivated too many immortals.
But James now looks even more terrifying than in the past.
He had entered the late stage of the seizure phase, and only half of his face was normal, and the other half of his face was covered with yellow, cloudy scales.
These scales are all over his body, and the eye covered in scales even looks like a bulging fisheye!
"!" Wang Yingjun was taken aback by the appearance of this non-human and non-fish.
"Who are you......" James' voice was low, the fish-like eyes staring at them.
"We've met. Chu Ge pursed his lips, "But I guess you don't remember, we asked you about the way to get out of the madhouse." ”
The last time Chu Ge saw James was in the first floor of the lunatic asylum, and he wasn't sure if this NPC still recognized them in the current copy.
"It's you ......," James' voice was a little surprised, "you've already escaped, why are you coming back?"
Chu Ge's eyes lit up, and sure enough, he still remembered us......
It's going to be a good break.
"In order to investigate the truth about the skemp, we ventured back here. Chu Ge thought for a while and said, "The last time I saw you, you were still delirious. You seem to be much more energetic this time. ”
"Huh. James smiled self-deprecatingly, covering half of his mutated face with his hands.
Chu Ge found that the hand he had lifted was also covered with scales, and translucent webbing grew at the junction of each finger.
This guy has entered a transition period!
"My auditory hallucinations have ended since my transformation began, and yet look at me, I've become like this......"
"What the hell is going on with the strange scale disease, and how did you get it?" Chu Ge asked, "If you can tell me some clues, maybe you can solve the secret of the strange scale disease." ”
"Impossible, it's a curse, a terrible curse. James's tone became low, "This curse comes from a place called Blackwater Village. ”
"Heishui Village?" Chu Ge's brows furrowed, as the name had appeared in the report on the Strange Scale Disease, the first case of which had appeared in Heishui Village ten years ago.
It seems that the origin of the strange scale disease must be related to the mysterious Blackwater Village.
"Do you know anything about this Blackwater Village?" asked Chu Ge.
"It all started with the locals...... James' voice was low, and he began to tell the story of Blackwater.
"Heishui Village used to be just an ordinary small fishing village, and the people in the village have been fishing for generations, and although life there is not rich, the people's life is relatively stable. ”
Chu Ge clasped his hands on his shoulders, and the expression on his face became serious.
"Until that stormy night......"
"The fishermen who sailed did not come back as usual, and people were very worried. The fishermen didn't come back until the next day, but there were only two people left in the boat......"
"The fishing boat looked bad, as if it had been attacked by something very terrible. ”
"The two survivors told the villagers that they had encountered a storm, that the boat had almost capsized, that many people had fallen into the water, and that only the two of them had survived......
"Some say it's the punishment of the sea, these fishermen disturb the sleep of the gods of the sea!"
Hearing this, Chu Ge's eyes narrowed, and he knew that this was not the punishment of the sea.
Something terrible absolutely happened on that stormy night!
