211 Old Western-style Pavilion

Braving the rain through the trap-covered garden, the trio soon came to the door of the abandoned villa.

With the lesson of the "ground gun" last time, Christine was also much more cautious this time, and did not push the door directly, but leaned against the wall next to the door, raised her right hand and made a military tactical gesture of "go in" to Zhao Nuo.

After twisting the doorknob lightly and making sure that the door was not locked, Zhao Nuo used the previous branch to slowly push the door of the villa open.

With the sound of "squeak", the two doors of the villa slowly opened inward. After confirming that there were no traps at the door, Zhao Nuo motioned for Zhou Yan and Christine to follow, and the three of them slowly walked into the hall.

The view is a dimly lit hall, with a staircase leading up to the second floor, flanked by a few sparse doors.

"It's so familiar...... Christine said with Chinese.

"It's like a Western-style house in the original Resident Evil game." Zhou Yan commented in a whisper.

"That's true." Zhao Nuo nodded.

――The plot of the original game of "Resident Evil" begins with the three members of the S.T.A.R.S team being attacked by zombie dogs in the wild and hiding in a western-style hotel. If memory serves, the people who came in at that time were Captain Wesker, Barry. Barton, as well as one of the "goddesses" of the Resident Evil series, Jill. Valentine.

And now there are three people on my side, and it feels like I have set up some kind of bad flag......

"Let's stay in the hall."

After entering the house, Zhao Nuo had no intention of "exploring" in this house at all. I just want to wait quietly for the rain to stop.

If I had been curious about a qiē thing a long time ago, I would have taken the lead. But Zhao Nuo felt that he was past that age - unlike the crazy game nerd in the past, he was much more stable now than before. Of course, being very angry or drinking alcohol does not count.

"Are there zombies here? It's just so cool! Christine seemed to have forgotten what had almost been killed by a shotgun buried in the earth just now, and regained her usual energetic state.

"If there were zombies, I'd leave you here and run away on your own." Zhao Nuo said with a smile.

Of course, he is not worried about the zombies in the house, but he is more worried about the traps set by the hunters and the "aborigines" hiding in the house.

It's dirty, but from the perspective of this hall, it shouldn't be uninhabited. It felt like someone was there. But who will it be?

Come to think of it. Zhao Nuo asked Zhou Yan: "Do you know the history of this house?" ”

"I also found this place when I occasionally went up the mountain to look for inspiration, there is very little information about this place, I looked it up on the Internet, and I only saw someone say that this is a house left by a wealthy merchant. It was also said that the man was missing. The pale-faced girl told what she had.

"Yes......" Zhao Nuo stared at the smooth ground. A sense of foreboding loomed in my heart.

-- If no one really lives. The floor should be covered with dust, but there is nothing on the floor here, as if someone had cleaned it.

Could it be some kind of maid or something that comes over regularly? Zhao Nuo immediately realized that it was impossible: if it was a servant, he should enter through the main entrance. Then he was shot directly by that "ground gun" trap.

The person cleaning this room is likely to be the one who has been living in it all along. Is it a homeless or a fugitive?

"Uh......"

A sound similar to hiccups suddenly came from the left side of the hall, interrupting Zhao Nuo's thoughts.

The three of them looked at the location where the sound came from almost at the same time, but they saw no one, only a dark wooden door that suddenly closed with a "bang".

"Someone!"

Realizing that his guess had been confirmed, Zhao Nuo's heart tightened, and he clenched the thick branch in his hand.

"......" Zhou Yan stared at the closed wooden door with a gloomy face, and remained silent.

"Ahh Christine asked excitedly, without the slightest hint of fear.

"If it's a zombie, it's obviously not a zombie." Zhao Nuo frowned slightly, and looked at the slightly smaller rain curtain outside the door: "It's too late to leave now." ”

I don't know who is hiding here, but it sounds like a woman, and it shouldn't be as simple as a homeless person - if it's an ordinary homeless person, when he sees three young people entering his "territory", he will probably question out loud instead of turning and running away, which is completely unreasonable.

Although it may also be a "hermit" who is very afraid of life, Zhao Nuo always feels that there is another mystery in the matter, if he continues to investigate, he may encounter some danger, so it is better to leave quickly.

It doesn't matter if it's just me, but now with two weak "drag oil bottles", it's very stupid to rush in.

However, Zhou Yan obviously didn't think so.

"Hey!"

When she came back to her senses and saw that the pale-skinned girl had already walked in front of the black wooden door, Zhao Nuo called her helplessly, and then walked over quickly.

"It's not good for us to disturb the residents here, right?" Zhao Nuo looked at Zhou Yan, who was holding the spherical doorknob.

"It's locked, can you open it?" Zhou Yan answered the question.

"Yes, yes, but I don't think it's a good idea, the guy was weird." Zhao Nuo sighed.

"Let's go inside!" Christine said happily.

……

Looking at the two "bold" girls, Zhao Nuo smiled helplessly.

――With the way they are now, they would have gone on an expedition alone even if they weren't there, right? It seems that they can only be accompanied, and if there is danger, they can only protect them with their own hands.

After confronting the killer with his hands stained with blood, Zhao Nuo felt that there was nothing to do, and he could still make himself very scared.

The door lock of the black wooden door looks old-fashioned, and with your own lockpicking skills, it should not take you a few clicks to get it. Thinking of this, Zhao Nuo took out his ID card from his pocket, borrowed a card from Zhou Yan, and began to unlock the lock.

He didn't learn his lockpicking skills from games, but trained them to play games - in middle school, his parents moved their computers to their bedrooms and locked them every day when they weren't at home. also cut off Zhao Nuo's pocket money "supply", so that he couldn't even go to the Internet café.

So, in order to play with the computer at home, he practiced superb lockpicking skills. It only takes less than ten seconds to unlock the door of your parents' bedroom, enter the house and turn on the computer to play games.

- "Ha, I was so naïve at the time. ”

Recalling the experience of secretly playing games back then, Zhao Nuo smiled, and then felt a familiar feel.

"Click!"

The door lock made an uplifting sound, Zhao Nuo put away his ID card and hairpin, twisted the doorknob, and then opened the black wooden door.

"Don't go in, let me come first."

Raising his right arm to signal Christine, who was about to walk in, to stop, Zhao Nuo took out his mobile phone, used the screen to illuminate the dark room, and looked inside.

It looked like it was supposed to be a storage room, and there were many wooden boxes piled up in the room, and I don't know what was inside. And there is no sign that there is anyone hiding.

The guy who lives here must have gone to another house. It is possible to continue the investigation, but-

"I think it's better for us to leave." Zhao Nuo raised his right hand and pointed to the red text on the opposite wall.

It looked like text painted in dark red paint, and the content was as striking as the color:

"Help! Save me! (To be continued......) R1292
