The originally translucent pale yellow water of the river became dark and invisible under the illumination of the road lights.

On the black surface of the river, three pairs of shoe prints appeared, from the bank to the center of the river.

Since the flame of the road guide lamp could only illuminate the surrounding things three meters, Chen Xi could not see the shoe prints three meters away, so he asked Xiao Ash to walk forward.

Ash tried to touch the black river with his chain-like tail, but the tail did not melt when it touched the black river, and only used it as a two-dimensional gesture to go up and down the water surface.

However, the black water of the river is too dark, and the little gray becomes completely invisible when it touches the river, and its own color is completely covered by the black of the river.

Chen Xi looked at the dark river, and even the strong light of the flash could not be broken, so he tried to probe the water with his fingers.

Poof, the nails poked into the water, and there was no sharp pain, only a cold touch.

Then Chen Xi found that he couldn't float on the surface and swim like Ash, he could only watch Ash hold the road light high, shining the green flame into the middle of the river.

In the middle of the river, the light yellow color becomes dark and invisible, and the light green shoe prints extend from the bank to the middle of the river, continuing to the road ahead.

Ash continued to walk away, and the road light that had been held high moved with Ash, disappearing into thin air in the middle of the river.

Chen Xi's heart jumped, and he immediately called Xiao Ash back through the shallow consciousness of the summoning contract.

In the next second, the road guide light suddenly appeared in the middle of the river, and Xiao Ash carried it back to Chen Xi's feet.

Seeing Xiao Ash come back safely, Chen Xi's tense heartstrings became relaxed.

It turned out that Xiao Ash did not disappear when he poked into the darkness just now, but went to another world.

The world is exactly the same as here, except that the main color scheme is gray, white and black.

Hearing this answer, Chen Xi's heart moved.

Maybe Zhou Wenbin and Luo Mang are in that gray world.

It's a pity that he can't walk across this river, although he can swim, but let him throw his whole body into this black river to swim, it is too insecure, he doesn't want to do that.

"If only there was a boat here." Chen Xixin said.

As he thought so, the light shook slightly, making a wind-chime-like jingle sound.

"Jingle bells."

The wind chimes rang three times in a row, and the bells rang very far.

Chen Xi listened to it in his ears and did not stop the movement of the road guide light.

Because when the road light is shaking, it means that it can attract an extradite boat, and if Chen Xi dares to get on the boat, it dares to shake.

So there was this scene, and the wind chimes were heard into the darkness.

After a while, Chen Xi heard the sound of the oars pulling the water, and it was slamming and slamming, wave after wave.

Seeing that in the middle of the river, half of the hull of the boat appeared.

With a bang, the paper oars on the paper boat rode the waves and slowly stopped in front of Chen Xi.

The paper boat is not a small origami boat, depending on the size of the hull, it can accommodate six or seven people.

Ash stepped onto the hull of the ship, and the road lights were placed in the bow of the boat, and the green fire lit up the front.

Three lines of light green shoe prints immediately appeared on the surface of the black river, passing through the darkness.

Chen Xi hesitated for three seconds, gritted his teeth, and stepped onto the paper boat, which looked very fragile.

After getting on the paper boat, Chen Xi seemed to be sitting on the air, very unrealistic.

Jingle bells.

The road guide light swayed gently, and once again emitted a bell-like bell like a wind chime, which shook in Chen Xi's brain and touched a certain heartstring.

After the paper boat chimes from the road light, the paddle automatically rattles when no one is around, and the hull of the boat immediately moves forward on the black river.

The flame also moved with the ship's hull, always illuminating the darkness ahead.

Chen Xi turned around and saw that the river behind him was getting blurred and blurred.

There was a mist ahead, and as Chen Xi plunged into the fog, the color of the world in his eyes changed completely.

Gray, endless gray.

Chen Xi saw a completely different city, the city buildings in the distance should be colorful, but the neon signs of various colors lost their color, and only gray, black, and white remained.

It was as if black and white was shining in front of his eyes, covering the whole world.

Except for the wrong color, the cityscape here is exactly the same as Yongcheng, and you can't find any different places, like a parallel world.

By the way, Chen Xi himself is colored, and Xiao Ash and the road guide light are also colored.

With a bang, the paper boat landed.

Chen Xi took Xiao Ash off the boat, and Xiao Ash continued to hold the road guide lamp high, and the green light illuminated the distance of three meters in front of him, revealing three lines of shoe prints.

Three lines of light green shoe prints lead into the distance, and the steps look a little messy, as if there are terrifying creatures chasing them behind them, making them run chaotically.

Chen Xi worries about them, how long has it been since his roommate disappeared?

I took out my phone to check the time, 11:50 a.m., a full day.

But at this point in time, where did he seem to have seen it, was it last night?

Chen Xi frowned, the same sense of coincidence appeared once when he played the midnight murder pen for the second time, and what was the reason this time.

He fell silent and followed the shoe prints on the ground to the side of an asphalt road.

On the sidewalk, three rows of shoe prints disappeared, turning into traces of three bicycle wheels.

Seeing these three traces, Chen Xi looked around sharply.

Familiar streets, familiar bus stop signs, familiar shop doors, and street lights next to them.

This is the place where they get on the bike.

It's just that these traces lack one person - Chen Xi!

He also rode a shared bicycle to escape, and he should not be left alone.

Or is it that Chen Xi was not arrested, so there is no trace of him in this gray parallel world?

Chen Xi squatted down to look at the three car marks, his expression gradually became solemn, and he saw the clues.

The position of the three car marks is not close to each other, and there is a free space next to it, which seems to be a bicycle space for the fourth person.

That space happened to be where Chen Xi was riding his bicycle at that time.

That is, at that time they were foursomes.

Chen Xi's face changed when he stood there, and he felt that the disappearance of his roommate was becoming more and more confusing.

What happened the night Chen Xi and his three roommates fled the river and rushed to the dormitory.

Why did Hu Jing return smoothly?

What happened to Zhou Wenbin and Luo Mang?

He looked around, he didn't hear anything except his own breathing, heartbeat, etc., and the street was eerily quiet.

Coupled with the fact that there are only three colors in this world: gray, white, and black, Chen Xi always feels that this gray world is not as calm as it seems.

Maybe those beings in the dark are peeking at Chen Xi's arrival in some invisible corner.

Chen Xi thought about it for a while, it was more appropriate to take Xiao Ash back.

Now he doesn't have the strength to investigate, when his mental state is better, play summoning to increase enough strength, and then come back to investigate.

Chen Xi turned around and tried to get back to the shore to make way for the light to summon another extradite boat.

It was also at this turn that Chen Xi happened to see a faint corpse of a woman in a red dress a hundred meters away.

She had no head, blood gushing frantically from her neck, and her skirt was stained red with her blood.

Holding her head, the female ghost silently sat on the paper boat on the shore, put her head on the bow of the paper boat, and supported the boat with both hands, gently rattling the waves.

Rushing.

The paper boat carried the female ghost to the middle of the river, where the fog was particularly hazy.
