[Day 3]

Night.

After Han Dong met with [Chen Li of the Evil One] during the twilight, he continued to go back to his room without leaving.

The rest of the team also returned to their rooms by eleven o'clock.

The power was still cut off at 11 p.m....... Only the red lantern was still lit.

This will be the last night of this event, and the two girls in the team will take out all the candles in their backpacks and light them in various corners of the room to dispel their fears through light.

As for Edward, who is familiar with the 'hidden rules', he fell asleep peacefully after checking the steam prosthetic.

Han Dong was also resting...... Even though he had rested all day during the day.

…………

The third night was different.

No more awakened by the sound of footsteps wandering down the aisle.

Han Dong slept until he woke up naturally.

The first time he opened his eyes, Han Dong quickly turned his head to look at the clockwork mechanism on his wrist.

"There are 9 hours left until the 'end of the event.'"

"Strange...... Is there a problem with time or is there a problem with the environment? ”

Outside the window, the full moon is in the sky, it is pitch black, and no matter how you look at it, it is night.

However, the standard time for Han Dong and the others to come to the villa is six o'clock in the afternoon, so the end of the time limit should also be six o'clock in the afternoon three days later...... Nine hours after the callback, then the current time should be 9 a.m.

Outside the window, there was no sign of 'dawn'.

"Is it possible...... Edward's so-called 'shifting' has begun. ”

That's when it happened.

Knock knock!

Han Dong's bedroom door was knocked continuously.

Standing outside the door was a panicked Edward. Murray, as well as two women with deep dark circles.

At the very least, no one was killed last night.

"Friend Nicholas, it's fine if you're okay...... The [Shift] I told you about yesterday should already be here. ”

Han Dong looked at a loss, and asked eagerly: "Captain!" What should we do? ”

Edward proposed, "Meet up with the people of the event first, and maybe you can get help from them."

It is rumored that the former leader of the Black Rose Knight was able to carry a large part of the newcomers of the team out of the destiny space alive. One of the things is with the help of the people of the event. ”

"Okay."

The four of them walked together, with Edward leading the way.

Unfortunately, things changed beyond Edward's predictions......

When the 'crunch' pushes open the wooden door of the hall on the first floor.

When everyone's flashlights shine on the hall scene, Monica, the blonde woman in the team, is so frightened that she sits on the ground.

Even Captain Edward, who had always been calm, had a little sweat on his forehead.

The believer, Akkaman, fell to his knees, clutched the cross, and muttered strange verses in an attempt to dispel his fears.

In the hall, it was indeed the same as in the early morning, and the two siblings had made breakfast and waited for everyone to come and eat.

However, today's siblings have become paper figures.

It is the paper figure used in the previous 'return ceremony' - a man and a woman, and the workmanship is crude.

But in the eyes of the four of them, this is Chen Li and Daqing's sisters and brothers.

As for breakfast, there are six bowls of fragrant rice on the table.

Even Han Dong was taken aback by this strange scene, and thought that something had really happened to Chen Li's sister and brother.

However, relying on the connection at the 'prison level', he knew that Chen Li was still alive and not the paper man in front of him.

"Ah!!h

Suddenly, a scream came from Akkman's mouth.

In the direction of her flashlight, a 'van' belonging to Wang Po and his wife was parked on the path outside the bungalow.

Although Han Dong knew that Wang Po and his wife had been killed...... But the rest of the team didn't know, including Edward, that after the return ceremony was successful, the princess and his wife would return on their own.

Edward led the group, slowly leaning towards the somewhat rough 'van'.

Take a closer look and see it's a large paper hearse.

Mrs. Wang Po, who are also 'paper people', are sitting on the hearse, and the face of the paper man is pasted with a red sticker with a weird smile.

"Is there no way back? I didn't ask for help from the people of the incident at all, and this road can be ......"

Just as Edward was lost in thought.

Swish!

The few large red lanterns that had been hanging in the aisle were all extinguished...... The bungalow, which was supposed to be a 'light source', was completely darkened.

Everyone reflexively shined their flashlights on the corridor on the second floor of the building.

Crunch!

In the silence of the night, the sound of such an old wooden door opening is particularly crisp.

Room 6.

It was also in the room of [Chen Li, the Evil One], that a woman with black hair covering her face slowly walked out...... She just stood quietly in the hallway, staring through her black hair at the team members next to the hearse.

The two messages of 'Chen Li is the evil spirit' and 'the bungalow cannot be returned' are deeply imprinted in Edward's mind.

Edward stabilized his mind, took out the map of the 500-meter range drawn by the newsboy a few days ago, and quickly formulated a response plan:

"It's worse than you think! There is only one dead end to go back to the bungalow...... Now the only way to survive is to use the range of movement within a radius of 500 meters to avoid the pursuit of evil spirits.

The four of us walked together, and once we ran into the evil spirit, we would all be destroyed.

I suggest everyone divide into two groups and go their separate ways!

This will increase the chances of some of them surviving...... I'm sorry, but I'm limited in my abilities. I may not be able to survive with everyone. ”

"I'm on a team with you!!"

The blonde Monica is bound to cling to this life-saving straw.

In her eyes.

Nicholas, who was weak and squatted in his room every day to rest, and Akaman, a believer who knew only prayer at every turn, could not and did not deserve to live.

At this time, the woman in red standing in the passage on the second floor had already begun to move, and there was not much discussion about how to divide the team at all.

"Let's group it like that...... I was on a team with Miss Akaman. Han Dong said with a bitter face.

Edward smiled knowingly and handed Han Dong a map, "Everyone flees separately, you and Akaman flee to the mountains to the south...... I must survive!! ”

Edward seemed to care, but he pointed out the most difficult path for Han Dong.

Han Dong and Akaman's health is not good, and if they flee in the direction of the high slope, their physical strength will be consumed a lot...... Once you encounter an evil spirit, you don't even have a chance to escape.

It's just that Han Dong has no objection.

"Run...... I hope you can meet again in the Holy City. ”

Split into two-person squads and flee in both north and south directions...... Edward's escape was downhill, and there was an abandoned building to hide in the bottom of the hill.

After the team members fled, Chen Li, who walked slowly to the first floor of the bungalow, smiled weirdly.

At this time, his younger brother Daqing, who was holding an oil lamp, walked over from the direction of the thatched house.

"Sister...... Do you really want to help the foreigner who can speak Kyushu? We don't really have to take any chances. ”

"Help!"

Chen Li, whose black hair is scattered, has entered a state of 'falling into evil'.

Just one word scared his younger brother Daqing's body trembling...... Don't dare to have any objections.

That's right.

Although the setting of the paper figure has nothing to do with Han Dong, Chen Li's appearance was arranged by Han Dong......
