Chapter 443: Back to the top
"It's nearby!"
Xia Ren instantly perked up.
Following the direction of the small piece of tissue in the bottle, Xia Ren drove to an unfamiliar street.
Compared to the rest of the city, it is noticeably more prosperous, and the buildings lining the roads are more elaborate, but they are not residential houses, but one- or two-storey shops, no more than three storeys. The reason why they all maintain such a height may also be related to their architectural style.
Qin Yun observed left and right and said, "It seems that this is a commercial street, for tourists who come to travel." ”
But now that there are no tourists in the city of Aeera, the streets are relatively empty, no one passes by for half a day, only a few shops are still open, but there are almost no customers, and the rest of the shops have long since closed.
This shopping street is less than two kilometers away from Jack's house, and the other side is exactly in the direction of the bar.
The tissue in the bottle was creeping more and more intensely, indicating that the remaining aberrations they were looking for might be not far away.
In order not to miss out, the car did not drive fast on the street, and the direction of the tissue in the bottle slowly changed, and finally pointed straight to one of the shops.
Xia Ren and Qin Yun glanced at each other, turned off the car, and walked down, Lu Yi also hugged Lily and followed behind, after such a long time together, the little guy gradually began to get used to Lu Yi's soft chest lying on his stomach.
The shop, like its peers around it, has also closed down, and judging from the signboard, it is supposed to sell mainly tourist souvenirs, but there is a lot of dust on the glass door of the store, and it seems that the owner has not been to the store for a while.
The door was locked as expected, and Xia Ren was about to habitually take out the ear picker, only to remember that it had worked a few times today.
Xia Ren thought for a while, turned back to Qin Yun and Lu Yi and said, "You stay outside the door, and I'll go in with Lily." ”
Lu Yi didn't have combat power, and Qin Yun didn't have a lot of experience, so if they startled the snake and let the deviant escape, their efforts would be in vain.
Xia Ren took Lily in his arms, broke the chain on the glass door with one hand, and walked in slowly.
The decoration of the store is not bad, quite artistic style, and the small goods on the shelves on both sides are also very old, if the price is not expensive, there will be many people willing to pay for it.
Natsuhito observed his surroundings as he walked deeper in the direction indicated by the small part of the tissue in the bottle.
Passing through the counter, there is a narrow and dimly lit corridor behind it, and the corridor is lined with cardboard boxes piled up, which are supposed to be the small goods outside. The air here is cloudy, filled with cheap aromas of goods, and the smell is a little superior.
The hallway is less than five meters long, followed by the wall and the staircase that leads to the second floor.
It was at this time that the direction indicated by the bottle changed to the second floor.
Xia Ren looked up, and the staircase was extremely dim, and there was no light, as if the light had been swallowed up.
As he was watching, there were several strange noises from above, as if something was knocking on the floor, accompanied by a terrible call that drew him forward.
Xia Ren raised his eyebrows, the wooden staircase couldn't hide the sound of footsteps, and it squeaked when he stepped on it, he simply quickened his pace and rushed to the second floor, while pulling out a crowbar, ready to respond to the other party's expectations.
Lily grabbed his clothes with both hands, and stuck tightly to his chest like an octopus, not only did she not have to worry about falling off, but she could also use it as a bulletproof vest at critical moments.
Xia Ren kicked towards the door, and the wooden door cracked with a loud sound, and then hit the wall behind it, completely scattered.
The foul air was accompanied by a strong smell of pollution, and it was like a garbage heap that had been piled up in the heat for a week, and all kinds of leftovers and rotten flesh in it began to melt, plus bacteria and fungi breeded, bursting through the garbage bags, and then gathered together.
Rao is Xia Ren, he took a sip unexpectedly, he was also a little dizzy, and he almost fell down the stairs when he stood unsteadily, if ordinary people smelled it, they would have to stay in bed for half a month if it was serious.
But fortunately, he stabilized his body in time, coughed twice and held his breath to check the scene in front of him.
The second floor is different from the first floor, this is supposed to be where the shopkeeper lives, behind the door is the living room, all kinds of furniture are placed, but the inside has long been messy, almost no small object is intact, all kinds of broken wine bottles and glasses on the ground, can not be settled at all.
The curtains of the balcony were blown by the wind, and a few gaps were revealed from time to time during the shaking, revealing the light and shadow.
Xia Ren saw that some floors and furniture surfaces had a few light white marks, a bit similar to scale, similar to the marks found on Jack's cat's eye. That is, there have been mucus aberrations that have been active here.
His heart sank, and he couldn't help frowning.
Looking at the scene in front of you, it is by no means just like this, but it has happened for a while, and it is very likely that the owner of this store has encountered an accident, or even become an aberration.
This means that there is not a single monster like Jack in Aceira, and this monster has not been born in the last two days!
Lily buried her head in Natsuin's chest, looking disgusted by it.
The air was silent for a second, and the sound of the knock on the floor just now, and the sound of the flickering distance, seemed to suddenly disappear, and never sounded again.
After thinking for a while, Xia Ren stood at the door and shouted, "Is there anyone?" No one, I just came in. ”
This is clearly nonsense, and he certainly doesn't expect anyone to respond.
When he arrived at the house, Xia Ren wanted to use the bottle in his hand to find out the aberration hidden here, but that small part of the tissue seemed to be ineffective, and he searched around in the bottle in confusion, and could no longer point out the direction.
"How so? Is it simply attracted by the smell of the house? ”
Shaking the bottle, the mucus inside was still the same, Xia Ren sighed, and could only put this temporarily ineffective prop into his pocket first.
It is impossible for the aberrant to still be in this room, and the surrounding environment is worse than the garbage dump, Xia Ren wanted to leave quickly, but in the dark, there seemed to be a voice saying:
It's all here......
There was no way, if he walked out like this without any gain, he was obviously not very willing, so he could only search the house and try to find some useful information.
After looking around in the living room, there was nothing worth paying attention to, and Xia Ren went directly to the bedroom.
This side is also too messy to look at, and the pig shakes his head when he sees it.
He opened the bedside table drawer in his bedroom, and sure enough, he found something good.
A few boxes of Cialis and Bilijin, as well as some latex safety barriers.
"It's a pity I don't need it."
Xia Ren shook his head and pulled open another drawer, which contained a wallet.
He took out his ID card and looked at it, and the photo showed a slightly chubby man, a little thankful.
The key is his name.
Allan. Bart.
