Chapter Seventy-Eight: Appearance
A wordless silence permeated the three of them.
When I left Xinlong Hotel, the sky had already become transparent. The experience of not sleeping all night made the three of them more or less tired, but they knew that this was not the time to rest.
The pre-requisites haven't been completed yet, and I'm afraid they don't need to wait for the "beast" to kill them, and they will die in the rules.
This sense of urgency was like a boulder slamming down on the hearts of the three of them, and they almost lost their breath.
"Where are we going now?"
Wan Hongyu suddenly asked, taking the initiative to break the silence.
The early winter morning is a little inexplicably cold, looking up into the distance, there is no sunlight.
Wan Hongyu wrapped the coat on her body and wiped her face with the back of her hand, she knew that she shouldn't be so good-looking at the moment, so she followed behind the two people without hurrying, but her gaze never shifted half a point from Zhuo Xuan.
If Zhuo Xuan turned around, he would definitely be able to meet her eyes full of complexity.
What kind of feelings are there?
Gentle and gentle, just like the feeling she brought to Zhuo Xuan when they first met.
But the apology in that look made people fall into the clouds.
"Let's go to ...... first Come to the hotel where Xu Shilin and I stayed temporarily," Zhuo Xuan pondered for a moment, looked back at Wan Hongyu, and made this decision.
The latter lowered his head, carefully avoiding his gaze and responding with silence.
Zhou Xueqiu had no objections.
If nothing else, the Chosen One who is still alive in this mission should be Zhuo Xuan and the only three left.
No matter how much assumptions are made, the real rule is still the one set by the black watch, and the investigation into Xu Shilin's death must be revealed, so he still intends to start with Xu Shilin himself.
Is the man who was sentenced to death by a black watch still anxiously waiting for him in the hotel?
Just as Zhuo Xuan was in thought, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly trembled, disturbing his uneasy mind. With the piercing ringing of the bell, the tired nerves of the three of them trembled violently, and their heads were buzzing.
"Who's going to call at this time?"
This is a strange phone call from Tinglin City.
Zhuo Xuan frowned and connected it, but the voice on the other side of the phone did not ring as he expected, but a sizzling electric current continued, shaking his eardrums.
It's like there's a huge magnetic field covering the area over there, interfering with communication equipment.
The voice on the phone gave Zhuo Xuan an inexplicable familiarity, however, before he could call out the other party's name, the eager, desperate cry seemed to break through the phone!
"Help, save me! Whoever you are, please save me! ”
"Dr. Xu?"
Zhuo Xuan's heart jumped suddenly, and he immediately recognized the other party's voice.
The person who called him was none other than Xu Shilin!
"Dr. Xu, where are you now?" Zhuo Xuan hurriedly responded, he held his phone tightly to his ear, for fear that he had missed a little useful information by mistake.
On the phone, Xu Shilin's voice was filled with fear, and the sound of electricity was blurred: "I don't know, I really don't know...... I'm in the hospital, I don't know why I called you, by the way, I found a note! It has your phone number written on it...... Come and save me! There's a monster here, and it's eating people! ”
"Calm down, we-"
Before Zhuo Xuan's reply fell, he heard a "beep" and the call was cut off.
The mobile phone screen returned to the desktop, Zhuo Xuan sighed and slowly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at Zhuo Xuan's extremely ugly face, Zhou Xueqiu couldn't help but ask.
Wan Hongyu also had a vague bad premonition, she walked forward quickly and walked to Zhuo Xuan's side.
"Xu Shilin is not in the hotel, he is back in the central hospital," Zhuo Xuan frowned, his voice was a little difficult, "and ......"
"The 'beast' has appeared!"
……
A strong smell of blood rushed to Xu Shilin's nose, making him a little nauseated.
Hiding under the operating table, Xu Shilin hugged his legs, his body trembled violently, but he didn't dare to make an extra sound.
Beside him, the phone with zero battery was black, like a huge abyss, no matter how much fear it absorbed, it could not be filled.
As if enveloped in a cold air, Xu Shilin's teeth rattled.
What the hell is going on? What the hell is wrong with this world?
Since this morning, weird things have been happening all the time. The peaceful life was like being thrown into a stone, shattering it completely......
What did you forget in that hotel?
Whose phone is the note in your pocket?
I can't remember everything!
No one could answer Xu Shilin's questions, and he couldn't wait for the rescue he was expecting.
Outside the door, in the hallway, the creature's voice grew closer and clearer, until, as if it had stopped through the door.
The muffled roar vanished, and the footsteps fled without a trace, only the strong smell of blood grew more frantic with the sound of a heartbeat like a war drum.
"Is it gone?"
Xu Shilin's eyes widened and cautiously crawled out from under the operating table.
On the operating table, the rescued patients were no longer breathing, and the doctors who performed the operation died one after another because they went out to investigate the situation.
If nothing else, there is only one living person left in the entire hospital.
The hospital seemed to be enveloped by an inexplicable force, and the thick black fog was like a thundercloud before a rainstorm, making the sky gloomy. Amazingly, the rest of the sky was normal except for the sky above the hospital.
Patients and doctors who thought the world was apocalyptic had tried to escape from the hospital. However, they walked into the rising black mist, let out a terrible scream, and never returned.
Xu Shilin, who was hiding in the operating room, was frightened, and he made several calls in a row, including the Tinglin City Metropolitan Police Department, and received a reply of "unreachable". The cold electronic voice seemed to carry a hint of resentment, and sentenced himself to death......
Unexpectedly, only the strange phone call written on the note could be connected, which also became Xu Shilin's only hope.
You have to work hard to live!
Xu Shilin thought so, and a drop of sweat slid down his forehead, making a soft "pop" sound on the floor, which was imperceptible.
"How can it be red?"
Xu Shilin was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but look down at the beads of sweat that had just dripped on the floor.
Tiny water stains are soaked in red liquid, revealing an eerie color.
Don't......
Xu Shilin raised his head suddenly, his liver and gallbladder were split!
A huge tentacle covered the ceiling and catapulted down the moment it made contact with his gaze, enveloping it!
A dull scream was accompanied by the thick blood slowly flowing out of the tentacle cracks. Everything is dead again.
