"It's very similar, I remember when we met Jack, he said let's wait three more days and we'll see the 'Deep Blue Echoes', and we both deduced that the 'Deep Blue Echoes' represented the end of the mission, so we only had three days. To be precise, Jack said yesterday that we had three days left, and now it's past 12 a.m., which means we only have two days left. Lin Mo nodded, she carefully calculated the time of the mission, "Now it is the fourth night that we have entered the mission, plus two days, that is, six nights...... That's exactly seven days! ”

"In other words, our mission time and the information on this dial are correct, so this wall clock is actually reminding us of the mission time?" Ai Yu reacted, but she felt a little strange, and a gut told her that this wall clock was much more than that.

At this moment, the sound of music suddenly came from outside the inn, and the three of them glanced at each other, and then walked in the direction of the gate. Yin Weiyu pushed open the door of the hotel and looked to the right, the originally empty street park looked lively at this time, two tall balloon puppets swaying in the wind, flocks of black crows hovering over the park, music echoed over the entire park, and six children danced in the middle of the park.

"A ray of light shattered peace, a scepter saved the living, a crown led to revival, and the story has just begun. A conspiracy continues, the two brothers are unwilling to admit defeat, and the three goddesses make a bet and cannot see the way forward. Deceived and applauded, put into the abyss by greed, imprisoned by time, let her sleep forever. If you can follow the flower of purity, please don't worry about it, let her go...... If you can follow the flower of purity, please don't be greedy, let her go......"

The weird music was repeated over and over again, the children's bodies looked very stiff, as if they were controlled by invisible threads, this dance was really ugly, and there was a weird atmosphere, Yin Weiyu opened her eyes slightly, and focused on the stereo playing the music, "This music is too weird, right......?" Well, the music is coming out of these speakers, and don't you think the kids are being manipulated? I suspect this music is something that manipulates children, so it's better to ......"

Before Yin Weiyu could finish his thoughts, he was interrupted by Lin Mo beside him, "Wait, this music is not the same as what I heard before!" ”

"What do you mean? Momo: When have you ever heard music before? Ai Yu didn't understand what Lin Mo said, they only found out about the Midnight Sleep Spell yesterday, and the people who were awake last night were Xu Qingran, Shen Junyao and Jiang Xian, and there was no Lin Mo. Although Lin Mo has the ability of a psychic medium, Ai Yu has performed several missions with her, and she knows best what Lin Mo's psychic ability looks like, and it is impossible for her to know what happened at night through the psychic medium.

"Have you forgotten? The first night, the first time we were unconscious, I was the last to be unconscious, and before I fell unconscious I heard the sound of the sickle rubbing against the ground, the cry of a child, and the faint sound of singing. Lin Mo knew that what happened on the first night was a long time ago for them, after all, everyone hadn't figured out the situation at that time. Later, the mission gradually got on the right track, and there were more clues and doubts, so she naturally forgot about this little thing, so she explained, "I remember that the melody of the song I heard at that time was very eerie, and it was not quite the same as the song played in the park now. Although this song sounds weird, it is not so scary, especially the last two lines...... It's like a prayer. But the song I heard on the first night, although it was only a little bit, gave people a completely different feeling. ”

Yin Weiyu nodded, she seemed to have a little impression, Lin Mo did say that she heard the song at that time, "Then do you remember what the song you heard looked like?" ”

Lin Mo closed her eyes, as if she was trying to recall this distant memory, and after a while, she opened her eyes and hummed quietly, "Ding Dong, midnight magic has come." Oops, who's playing the game? When the bell rings twelve ......"

Lin Mo only hummed two or three sentences before stopping, after all, she only remembered so much, to be precise, she only heard so much that night.

"That's all there is to it?" Ai Yu let out an exclamation, and then she said, "But just from these few sentences, you can hear it, it is indeed the ...... that is put in the park now" Ai Yu stopped talking halfway through speaking, because she found something.

The music in the park stopped at some point.

So the three of them looked at the place where the children were dancing in the middle of the park, and saw that the six children were motionless as if they had pressed the pause button. Only the cool wind of midnight flows, and the sound of the wind whistles by, leading the atmosphere to a low point.

The three of them were speechless for a while, and then there was a sound of footsteps. Lin Mo's hearing was naturally excellent, she took the lead in turning her head to look in the direction where the footsteps came from, only to see a little girl with golden curly hair in a bright red dress walking over with cheerful steps. Her beautiful blue eyes met Lin Mo, and then bent into a crescent moon.

Alice.

The girl is the missing Alice.

Lin Mo took a step back without leaving a trace, this was a kind of code agreed upon by the three of them, when the situation was urgent and they couldn't speak out, they would take a step back to convey the current situation to others, and be prepared to defend.

"Hey, big sister, why are you here?" Alice didn't seem to have any intention of attacking them, she tilted her head as if she was very confused, Lin Mo smiled, but didn't answer her.

"Ah...... Are you like Alice? Alice said with a sudden realization.

Same as her? What do you mean?

Lin Mo frowned, so he asked, "What do you mean by being the same as you?" ”

Alice suddenly pursed her mouth, she seemed to be in a very bad mood, her little face was about to twist, and she took a few steps forward, "Alice, I can't find my way home." ”

Yin Weiyu suddenly squatted down, she looked at Alice with a smile, "Why can't you find your way home?" ”

Alice's eyes lit up, and she walked in the direction of Yin Weiyu after crossing Lin Mo, she stretched out her hands, as if to hug Yin Weiyu, "Alice can't remember where her home is...... Alice wants to go home...... Father is still waiting for Alice at home......"

Alice said and spoke, tears fell like pearls with broken threads, Yin Weiyu couldn't see children crying, especially a cute and beautiful child like Alice, so she reached out and stroked Alice's back and patted it gently.

Just for a moment, Yin Weiyu was stunned in place, and he didn't dare to make any other moves.

Alice left Yin Weiyu's embrace, she glanced back at the direction she came, and then looked at the children in the middle of the park, "The time is coming, he is coming, Alice must go first...... Big sister, will you find me and take me home? ”

Yin Weiyu came back to her senses and smiled a little awkwardly, she nodded and said, "I will." ”

"Then Alice is waiting for you, big sister!" Alice ran away in the direction of the Yongxing Grand Theater, and did not forget to wave her hand at Yin Weiyu as she left.

Alice's thin figure disappeared into the night, and Lin Mo asked, "Weiyu, have you found anything?" ”

Yin Weiyu looked at her hands in a daze, as if she had not completely recovered from the huge shock, she turned her head to look in the direction Alice left, frowned and swallowed her saliva, "Alice's back...... is empty. ”

The midnight bell rang on time, and Jun Yao saw that the red-lit room on the second floor of Arthur's house suddenly fell into darkness, and then he heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and the door of Arthur's house was suddenly opened. The light shone for a moment, and as the door closed, the light twisted into a slit, and the vision fell into darkness again.

Jiang Xian said softly, "Arthur is out." ”

Xu Qingran, who was squatting on the far left, nodded, "He wore a black cloak, and the whole person was hidden under the cloak." ”

Jun Yao stood on the far right, the farthest from the gate of Arthur's house, and the door just now opened from the left to the outside, just blocking her view, so she didn't see anyone coming out. However, since Jiang Xian and Xu Qingran have said it, there must be nothing wrong, Arthur should have gone out.

"Then let's keep up!" Jun Yao said, Jiang Xian took out the [Spirit Cat Statue] from her backpack and inserted it into the soil in front of her, patted the top of the statue with both hands, and then she smiled, "This can be regarded as a two-handed preparation." ”

Xu Qingran didn't speak, he had already stood up from the bushes, collapsed in two steps, sorted out the leaves on his body, looked back at Jun Yao and Jiang Xian who were still in the bushes, stretched out his hand to the two, and said while pulling them out, "Let's keep our distance, don't follow too closely, so as not to be detected." ”

After Arthur came out of the house, he walked to the right, as if he was going into the forest, and the three of them followed him, and when a large number of trees appeared in front of them, they were convinced that Arthur was really going to enter the forest of eternal night.

What did he want to do when he went into the forest?

The three of them couldn't figure it out for a while, but they didn't get entangled, they just had to keep up with him.

Arthur hid a kerosene lamp under his black cloak, and when he entered the forest, his right hand came out of the cloak, carrying the lamp to light the way. Arthur seems to have walked through this forest countless times, and he is familiar with the road, so he does not hesitate at all, and turns when it is time to turn, as if he has formed a body memory.

"This Arthur seems to be very familiar with the forest." Jiang Xian sighed.

"I had a hunch that he was looking for the god's castle, or rather not for it, and he knew where it was, and now he was just going there." Jun Yao said, Xu Qingran nodded, he also thought so, after all, Arthur went to the forest late at night, looking at the direction of the road, it seemed that it was not the same as what they walked two days ago. So Arthur must not be going to the garden of Avarice's roses, but to the castle where the gods live in seclusion as depicted in the frescoes of the legend.

"It's just that we didn't react just now, otherwise we could have left some markings, and we would have found the castle again tomorrow during the day." Xu Qingran sighed a little regretfully, and at this moment, Jiang Xian suddenly squatted down on the spot, and reached out to pull Jun Yao and Xu Qingran, who didn't react next to him, and the three of them squatted on the ground.

As soon as Jun Yao wanted to ask Jiang Xian what she was doing, she was dismissed by Jiang Xian's "shhhh Arthur stopped, and of course we couldn't go any further. ”

Arthur put the kerosene lamp in his hand at the foot of the statue on the right side of the castle gate, as if he had triggered some switch, only to hear a "squeak-" sound, the heavy door slowly opened inward, Arthur turned his head to look at the kerosene lamp on the ground, hesitated, did not take it back, but let it be placed on the ground. Arthur reached out and pushed the door that had leaked a crack, and the door opened wider, and he stepped on the bright red carpet and disappeared behind the door.

Jiang Xian stood up abruptly and was about to run towards the gate of the ancient castle, but fortunately, Jun Yao reacted quickly and grabbed her, "What are you doing?" ”

"Of course it's to keep up!" Jiang Xian replied that geography should be.

"He's just entered, and we don't even know what the structure inside looks like, so what if we take the liberty to follow him and pretend to be in the right position with him?"

Jiang Xian looked very anxious, "But he entered the castle, you look at the castle is so tall and big, if we don't hurry up and follow, we will lose it later." ”

Xu Qingran spoke at this time, "Let's go, let's go in and have a look, even if Arthur loses it, it doesn't matter, at least we found the ancient castle, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain." ”

Xu Qingran spoke, and Jun Yao no longer insisted, so the three of them walked in the direction of the gate of the ancient castle. Arthur didn't take the kerosene lamp with him, nor did he close the gate to the castle, so the three of them could easily get in.

Jun Yao stood in front of the door, but felt that all this in front of him was very familiar.

The statues on either side of the gate are huge skulls, a blood-red candle in the mouth of the blood basin, and a copper-plated gate......

Jun Yao finally remembered why it was so familiar.

It looks so much like the Wishing House from the previous mission!
