Chapter 12: Meals
It was completely dark.
The rain was getting heavier, and the wind was blowing through the bushes.
The mist distorts the light from afar.
In the dimness, a black shadow was rapidly shuttling through the winding paths and trees.
Dressed in a dark poncho, wearing a wide mask that covered most of his face, and holding the crowbar in his hand, Yeming's appearance was terrifying enough to make anyone who saw him at this time think that he had met a butcher on a rainy night.
Lumine's eyes scanned a corner like searchlights, and his brain quickly analyzed the scene that matched the two obvious features of the red wall and the four-meter-tall camphor tree.
This is already the fourth suspicious point.
The girls who disappeared definitely did not go out of the villa hotel area.
With the dormitory as the center, the distance within a quarter of an hour's radius is not more than 2,500 meters.
This distance range is locked because of the notice of garden maintenance on the work board hanging next to the door of the utility room.
When Nightlight was teleported, he had flipped through the contents. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, just glanced at it in a hurry.
In fact, the details that hide the answer are laid out in front of you from the beginning.
At that time, without connecting the whole event and combing and analyzing it, it is impossible to reason to this extent, let alone notice the seemingly meaningless detail.
The notice was accompanied by a concise and easy-to-understand drawing, which indicated that more than 40 days ago, the Ministry of Parks and Parks carried out autumn maintenance of the green seedlings in the entire park, and the first area to carry out work was around the dormitory.
Kang and Xia disappeared 29 days ago. At this time, the maintenance of the gardens around the dormitory has been completed, and the workers have moved to the next area.
So, in the past month, a strange flower can grow quietly without being noticed by the garden workers, and it can only be near the dormitory where the autumn care work is completed early.
Although yet, Ye Ming has not connected the two of [Flower] and [Disappeared Girl Team Player], but he firmly believes that his judgment is correct, as long as he finds that strange flower, he will definitely be able to solve this strange mystery.
In addition, he also confirmed that he is definitely a pure man.
Although he couldn't see his expression at this time wearing an oversized mask, in good conscience, he maintained a sincere smile throughout the whole process.
Sure enough, the boy's luck has nothing to do with whether he likes to laugh or not.
The fourth suspicious point, nothing was found.
The Luminous Cat paced back and forth on a piece of turf that matched the characteristics of a red wall and a tall camphor tree, but found no signs of soft soil that resembled a hidden passage or a possible burial of a corpse.
There is only one last suspicious point left, and if it is not found again...
Ye Ming glanced down at his phone, and it took nearly an hour to find out, and there were only 45 minutes left for his task.
At this time, the wind and rain are heavier than before.
In such weather, almost no one goes out, especially the wealthy people who live in the villa hotel area.
This gives Lumin more convenience, and he doesn't have to worry about whether he will run into guests, and he can just trot along the cobblestone path.
Ten minutes later, he walked to the end of the trail.
On the left and right are tall camphor trees and low shrubs, and between the trees hang countless intertwined vines, like a dense curtain.
Luminous took a flashlight out of his trouser pocket and turned it on, poked out the crowbar from under the poncho, and lifted the vine curtain.
The terrain inside the curtain was obviously lower than the position he was standing at this time.
The branches of the vines dangled everywhere in the wind, and the camphor tree was covered with a thick layer of moss at the base of the camphor tree to half a man's height. The ground is a grass thicker than moss, lush and green, and it has a completely out-of-season appearance.
On the left, a five- or six-meter-tall sculpture is fan-shaped, and it seems to be dotted with something that looks like clouds.
After sweeping the light of the flashlight back and forth three times, Yeming realized that the sculpture was a rainbow bridge. It's just that after a long time, the wind and sun have faded a little.
There are a number of camphor trees on both sides of the Rainbow Bridge, moss vines climb and hang, and there seem to be some red flowers the size of rice grains.
Aside from the chilly colors of a rainy night, this place is used to shoot Alice in Wonderland without another set.
Luminous walked cautiously and slowly towards the sculpture.
When I walked about ten meters closer to the Rainbow Bridge, the touch under my feet changed significantly.
This foot feeling can't be compared to a professional football field, as if stepping on a very elastic mattress.
Yeming frowned, and before he had time to think about it, he noticed that his feet moved slightly.
"Huh?"
Nightlight bounced away alertly, looking left and right, and there was nothing to use with gravel or anything like that.
Immediately, he quickly used a crowbar to dig out a palm-sized piece of mud on the ground behind him, and threw it vigorously at the position he had just stepped on.
Under the light of the flashlight, the night was clear and clear, and the grass was slightly raised, shaking the mud inward.
Later, he took a few more tests and the grass bulge became more pronounced each time.
"Didn't you say that animals were not allowed to become sperm after the founding of the People's Republic of China?"
Ye Ming secretly doubted in his heart, raised his hand and threw a mud block, and when the grass rose again, he stabbed the crowbar into the bulge.
'Poof'.
Like a popping cake that has been popped, a stream of slime with a strange smell sprays more than a meter high.
Although he was defenseless, fortunately, Yeming reacted quickly and dodged to avoid it. Still, a small amount of spills were found on the cuffs and uppers.
In an instant, the sweatpants and uppers were corroded.
Nightlight immediately pulled out the crowbar, took two steps back, and quickly glanced at his pants and shoes.
The degree of corrosion is not very serious, but if it is sprayed on his face just now, it will be enough for him to be disfigured.
Just as Yeming was engrossed in shining a flashlight ahead, two tentacle-like vines silently reached into his feet, spinning several times around his ankles to form a spring-like shape.
'Whoosh'
Two 'springs' are contracted at the same time.
By the time Yeming noticed that his feet were entangled, it was already too late. A great force dragged him forward and lifted him, and the thick vine branches wrapped around him like two pythons that wanted to strangle their prey.
At the same time, under the camphor tree in front of the Rainbow Bridge sculpture and like an umbrella cover, the thick grass with a good foot feeling that makes people feel like stepping on soft cushions begins to surge and rise and fall like waves.
In just three or four seconds, the grass cracked.
Surrounded by several thick vines, Yeming, which hangs upside down in mid-air, looks down from the top and witnesses the whole process of 'grass becoming essence' with your own eyes.
I saw that the grass that had been torn apart from the center was like a torn mango skin, spreading out in all directions, revealing the huge jade strange flower in the middle.
At this time, the strange flowers that grow amazingly have grown to a diameter of about two meters; The color is no longer the jade white in the selfies of Kang Tian, Xia Zi Zi Zi, and Dorothy.
From the perspective of the night, it is not so much a flower as a deep-sea octopus with furious tentacles.
The eight petals are a crimson to creamy gradient, covered with a layer of clear, smooth slime and shimmering like a jellyfish;
The gradient petals are covered with dense crimson holes, and what makes the scalp tingle is that there are countless jagged objects growing in those small holes, one by one, as if chewing something.
Immediately afterwards, the stamens rose slightly and slowly opened.
Lumine's eyes widened.
In the stamens of the slightly opened, the upper body of a human body appeared.
The man's head was drooped to the side, his eyes were closed, and only the upper half of his body was covered in red liquid and slime. At first glance, it looks like a newborn who has just been stripped from the placenta, shocking and weird.
The bloody man's body from the neck down was covered with thin red threads that looked like catheters, and the other end of the thin threads was connected to the stamens.
Obviously, the stamens are drawing blood to nourish themselves.
Cannibal flowers?!
There really is such a disgusting species as man-eating flowers!
The bloody man below and the night light suspended upside down in mid-air, although there is a height of more than two meters in the middle, it is equivalent to facing each other.
Ye Ming's brows furrowed, and the bloody man who was being devoured by the man-eating flower underneath turned out to be...
She?!
Chloe, the girl band player who gave up on herself in the rehearsal room.
Without thinking too much, Yeming clearly felt that he was being transported down slowly.
This is, one is not enough to eat, ready to use him to add food!
The crowbar was in his hand, but it was a pity that at this time, he was tied into a dumpling by the thick vines, and he couldn't exert his strength at all.
What to do?
You can't really be eaten as a meat dumpling!
Pit, god pit.
I'm just a rookie player in LV1.,To equip or not.,To have experience or not.,The first single-player mission encountered this style of painting.。
system, you must have done it on purpose.
Nightlight could feel that countless thin threads in the vine branches were breaking through his clothes and pants and digging into his skin.
Five seconds ago, a small patch of exposed skin on the ankle was partially unconscious after a slight tingling sensation.
Paralyzing neurotoxins? Or is it similar to the anesthetic and anticoagulant substances in the mouthparts of mosquitoes?
Whatever it is, it won't be long before the area below the waist loses sensation.
Even if the upper body and arms are protected by [Li Sizhen's skin], the inability to move the legs must not be a death.
"Paralysis! What a broken system, a rotten system, a stupid system, I'll fuck your system uncle, fuck your system grandma..."
