"Knock knock-" Shen Junyao opened her eyes slightly, this time easily breaking free from her sleepiness and waking up from the chaos, she glanced up at the clock hanging in the room.

Twelve :05 a.m.

It's midnight!

Jun Yao realized that she had actually escaped the mysterious and unconscious midnight sleep, and she let out a long breath, but she was suddenly stunned.

Because she felt a person standing behind her.

Jun Yao pretended not to notice, and casually reached out to pick up the water cup on the table, as if she was thirsty and wanted to drink water, and at the moment when the quilt touched her lips, Jun Yao waved her hand violently, and most of the glass of water was splashed behind her.

"Ahh

"Jiang Xian?"

Fortunately, Jiang Xian's clothes were relatively waterproof, and the water droplets were shaken off with just a light pat, Jiang Xian looked at Jun Yao with a smile, "I just heard your movement here, so I wanted to see if you were the same as me." ”

"What is the same as you?" Jun Yao remained vigilant, Jiang Xian shook her head, and then took out the prop [Wood Vine] she had used in Lily's garden before from the inventory and showed it to Jun Yao, proving her identity in this way, Jun Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and then said apologetically, "I'm sorry...... After all, it was the first time I could be active at midnight, and I wasn't sure if everyone was like that, so I said, ......"

Jiang Xian shook her head, indicating that she didn't care about this, "I woke up two minutes before you, I have also seen it, Lin Mo, Chen Yang and Zhao Xiao cannot be woken up, they seem to be in the same state as we were at night before, unable to wake up by themselves or through others." You didn't react at the time, so I'm going to go out and see how the three of them are doing in the living room preparing to carry out the plan. I was just about to open the door, and I heard movement behind me, and I seemed to see you move a little, but I didn't know if I was looking at the flowers, so I wanted to get closer and confirm it......"

Jun Yao could only smile awkwardly, but fortunately, Jiang Xian didn't care too much about this, she pointed in the direction of the door, "Then let's go out together to see the situation, right?" ”

Jun Yao nodded, took out her own prop [Ghost Doll] from her bag and hugged it to her chest, Jiang Xian glanced at the doll, was stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything, and pushed the door open. The two men were walking slowly down the hallway, and when they were about to reach the hall, a burrower suddenly appeared around the corner and flew in their direction. The ghost doll in Jun Yao's arms did not move at all, did not cry, as if it was just a toy that a girl liked, but Jiang Xian moved at that moment, and the wooden stick in her hand pointed forward, and countless rattans grew on the ground, quickly weaving a net in front of the two.

The moment the rattan net disappeared, Jun Yao saw Xu Qingran standing not far away holding a paper dart.

After seeing each other clearly, the three of them invariably breathed a sigh of relief, and then put away their props.

"Only the two of you are awake?" Xu Qingran asked.

"Hmm." Jiang Xian nodded, and walked to Xu Qingran with Jun Yao, on the sofa in the hall, Ai Yu and Yin Weiyu leaned together, sleeping very sweetly, such a quiet appearance made people can't bear to wake them up.

"It's weird, we seem to be the exception." Xu Qingran sneered.

"It's not so much a special case, but a rule that we're breaking through?" Jun Yao frowned and thought about it seriously, "Did the three of us do anything special today?" ”

"I think about it...... The three of us have never formed a group and acted alone, have we? This morning, it was the two of you and Ai Yu who went to Adam's room to look for clues, while the rest of us were downstairs drinking tea. After leaving Adam's house, it was the two of you plus Lin Mo who went to the bell tower and Alice's house, and I went with Ai Yu to find out the news. After lunch, everyone acted together, and when we were grouped in the forest, I was in a group with Xu Qingran, Jun Yao and Ai Yu, until we went to the Rose Garden and got together again. We've never been together, let alone done anything like that, have we? ”

Jun Yao nodded, what Jiang Xian said made sense, the three of them were staggered, not parallel and overlapping. If they did the same thing when they were separated, then it should be more than the three of them who woke up, right? Lin Mo and Ai Yu, at least one of the two of them will wake up, or both of them should be awake.

What the hell is going on? Knowing that there is a commonality between them, and this is the key to breaking the midnight sleep curse, but the clue is in front of him, but Jun Yao can't grasp it. She was a little anxious, and her right hand kept opening and closing, as if she was using this way to ease her emotions and calm herself.

What's wrong? What exactly are commonalities?

The Rose Garden? Wait a minute! Rose Garden!

"We all have something in common!" Jun Yao suddenly realized, her words made Jiang Xian and Xu Qingran both stop, and the two looked at Shen Junyao intently, looking forward to her following, "We entered two different different spaces in the Rose Garden, and then saw Avarice. ”

"But isn't Ai Yu also ...... That's right, Ai Yu didn't see Avarice! You said that when Avarice was chatting with you, she made a point of emphasizing that she stopped time in Ai Yu's space. Jiang Xian clapped her palms, feeling that Jun Yao's words made sense, this was indeed a commonality that only the three of them had.

Xu Qingran shook his head slightly, and seemed to agree with this point of view, "But I think Avarice's appearance is a variable, and Lin Mo also said that when she discovered that the Ethereal Spirit had distorted space on us, she tried to stop the Ethereal Spirit's behavior. However, her strength was not equal compared to the power of this ethereal spirit, but Lin Mo was suppressed. But just when Lin Mo felt that he couldn't save everyone, this void spirit escaped. I'm guessing the reason for its sudden departure was because Avarice suddenly broke into its alternate dimension. ”

"That's right, the commonality I'm talking about isn't Avarice, it's something that happened after we met Avarice. You angered Avarice by breaking into her garden, and you got into a fight with her. I didn't fight Avarice, but after Avarice left, I met the Masked Man and got into a fight with him. ”

"There are three of us...... All hurt, aren't they? Jun Yao was obviously in an inquiring tone, but she was unusually sure, she was revealing the answer they desperately needed in this way.

"However, Lin Mo was also injured." Jiang Xian whispered, Xu Qingran glanced at her and shook her head, "No, we are indeed different from Lin Mo. Although Lin Mo said that she was injured, it was a backlash from the excessive use of her own psychic ability, and she could repair herself. But after the three of us were injured, we returned to the original space, and at that time, Ai Yu took her props to treat us. ”

"As far as I know, Ai Yu's healing item [Shennong Baicao] has an effect that is very useful, called 'Eliminate all negative effects'. Maybe we all had some kind of negative buff related to the Midnight Sleep spell on our bodies, but because we used this item after being injured, the negative buff disappeared as the wound healed. Xu Qingran said, he glanced at the clock hanging on the wall of the hall to confirm the time, and then he looked at the door of the inn.

Jun Yao and Jiang Xian understood what he meant, he wanted to continue this plan that should have been carried out by him, Ai Yu and Yin Weiyu at midnight, although it was now replaced by Jiang Xian and Jun Yao, but Xu Qingran felt that the opportunity could not be lost, and it would not come again.

No one knows what will happen tomorrow, and no one knows if they have a tomorrow.

The three of them walked out of the Eternal Sleep Hotel together, and as soon as they opened the door of the inn, they heard very cheerful music coming from the street park, the music was very loud, as if it had been artificially amplified by an electrical appliance such as a loudspeaker.

Xu Qingran took out the wrist arrow and put it on his hand, he shook his head at Jun Yao and Jiang Xian, signaling that the two of them didn't need to take out the props anymore, so the three of them cautiously walked towards the street park.

The music was loud, but it was also noisy, and it wasn't until the three of them were actually standing in the park that they could hear the music.

"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 children danced in the midst of such strange music, and their bodies were like manipulated marionettes, stuck in the nodes of the music, dancing strangely. Their expressions are yearning and cheerful, and although their eyes are open, they look extremely empty, but such expressions are like the bliss of death.

"This song is so weird." Jiang Xian sighed, she frowned, looking at the obsessed appearance of the children in front of her, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her back. In them, or not only on duty, but also in the townspeople, in these countless sleepless nights, in this street park, day after day, night after night.

It's horrible.

"Look there!" Just when everyone's attention was fully focused on the children in the carnival, three children suddenly stopped moving, they lowered their heads, looked at the ground, and did not move for a long time. Just when Jun Yao thought that the three of them were completely still and lost their vitality, the three children raised their heads suddenly, and there was a living life in their eyes—doubt, surprise, and horror, which were all vividly displayed in those pupils.

The three children broke free from the revelry, looking at each other and at the other companions in the park who were swinging to the music, all thinking the same thing.

- Escape.

The farther you run, the better!

So the three children scattered in a panic, and without prior agreement, they ran in three different directions, like arrows off the string, with the strength of breastfeeding.

Pursue!

Xu Qingran and the three of them understood their identities the moment they saw the three children who were out of control, and they were too sensitive to the number three, after all, it was the number of new blood handprints that appeared on the handrail of the bell tower stairs today.

They are the children who are about to disappear, follow them, catch up with them, maybe find the final boss, and also solve the final mystery.

Three people, in three directions, chasing three children.

Jun Yao was chasing a little girl, she looked thin and weak, but who knew that she could run so fast. But after all, this child should also realize that his situation is due to a very dangerous situation, so he will definitely do his best to escape from this strange place and go to a safe place, the sooner the better.

The little girl and Jun Yao kept a distance, Jun Yao's physical strength gradually ran out, and her speed slowed down, but the little girl didn't seem to have any intention of slowing down, so Jun Yao could only hold on to ensure that the little girl was still in her sight, and she didn't disappear or lose.

At this time, the little girl suddenly turned to the street on the right, Jun Yao had a bad heart, gritted her teeth and accelerated to catch up, but after following the turn, she slowed down and was stunned.

To her left and to her right, a man ran away.

Xu Qingran, Jiang Xian.

The three of them looked at each other in surprise, not missing the trace of doubt in each other's eyes.

So they all looked in the same direction.

Directly in front of it is a large reddish-brown building.

The glittering gate, the beautiful and dazzling lighting, and the huge clock stand in front of the gate.

The three of them involuntarily stepped back, they were on guard, they were afraid.

Because this building shouldn't have been here, or they shouldn't have been in front of this building.

Yongxing Grand Theatre.

Just as the three of them were about to turn around and flee, there was a huge sound like wings flapping in the sky, so Jun Yao looked towards the sky above, only to see a red full moon hanging high in the sky, and the black object gradually became clear from far and near in the blood moon.

The black crow fluttered its wings and stood in the middle of the roof of the Yongxing Grand Theater.

His large outstretched wings glowed red, and then those wings turned into human arms, and a huge scythe appeared behind him out of thin air, and the crow's face was hidden under a tawny mask in the next second.

His happy laughter echoed in the air, and for a moment it was messy, and I don't know why he was laughing.

The calm is only for a moment.

Countless white lines could be seen very clearly in the moonlight, they staggered and frantically drilled out of the ground, and attacked in the direction of the three people, Xu Qingran raised his right hand without hesitation, and was about to cover his right eye, but he felt a tingling pain in his abdomen, he lowered his head in disbelief, only to see a hideous claw stabbed into his abdomen, and then retracted it mercilessly.

Xu Qingran spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt straight on the ground, he raised his eyes and saw the owner of the claws, who was the masked man standing on the roof of the Yongxing Grand Theater.

"O heir to Thor, the same trick, once is enough."

The huge scythe and hideous claws struck at the three of them again, to be precise, their targets this time were Jun Yao and Jiang Xian behind Xu Qingran.
