The strange glove was made of pitch-black leather, and at the tip of each finger there was an extremely long blade, like five bright scalpels.....

Of course, Ziliang knows this pair of gloves, it belongs to [Freddy. Kruger], the fictional character, this glove has almost become a kind of symbol for him.

Ziliang raised his head, and then ...... As expected, I saw the face I saw in the illusion, the hideous skin, which was scorched by the flames and fell off, revealing the bright red flesh inside, and the scabbed blood vessels were clearly exposed.

That face is enough to call it a nightmare...... And his red and blue shirt and top hat, everywhere reveals a strange feeling of a combination of horror and absurdity.

But...... What makes Ziliang more concerned is ...... His eyes.

It was a pair of incomparably calm eyes, quiet, silent, as if they had nothing to do with the cruel eyes in the vision. is also incompatible with his image. Anyway, that's it, [Freddy. Kruger] appeared in front of Ziliang, without a hint of warning, and no one saw how he appeared.

A moment of trance......

Everything in front of Ziliang's eyes began to spin until it disappeared. Except Freddy's eyes were still staring at him steadfastly.

Followed by......

It's a smell of dust.

Ziliang woke up suddenly.

He found himself standing in a bedroom.

The bedroom was unlit and dark, with only a faint moonlight streaming in through the window. The moonlight was attached to a set of pink tables and chairs, and next to the tables and chairs was a pair of wardrobes that were clinging to the wall, although they were old, but Ziliang could confirm that this was a girl's bedroom.

And at this moment, directly in front of him, there is a single bed, and a very beautiful girl is lying quietly on the bed...... She fell asleep with a lovely quilt over her..... This girl is none other than Alice...... And the sharp axe in Ziliang's hand hovered above her head, if it wasn't held by Freddy, then at this moment, the girl would already be in a different place.

Ziliang was stunned, and it took a few seconds for him to completely get out of this trance.

"Are you...... Freddy? He asked, looking at the terrible face in front of him.

"You can call me that." Freddy replied, his voice hoarse, but without murderous intent.

Ziliang smiled: "So, am I in a dream now?" ”

"That depends on how you interpret dreams." Freddy let go of his hand: "If you mean the town called Plumwood in Alice's consciousness, then the answer is...... No! You're not in a dream, on the contrary, you're waking up now. ”

Ziliang frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

"The small town of Pullynwood, thirty-five years ago...... It was burned down by a fire. ”

With that, Freddy walked over to the window and pushed it open...... By the moonlight, Ziliang finally saw the scene outside, it was a desolate street, the buildings on both sides showed the remains of the fire, and as far as the eye could see, there was not a trace of light and people, only weeds and dust......

"I want to ...... Can you explain to me what kind of story this is...... Right. ”

"Okay." Freddy said: "Actually, it's very simple, 35 years ago, in this bedroom, in this bed, a sanctimonious mayor did something you can imagine to a little girl......

Ziliang nodded: "Oh? It turns out that the made-up story is true? Do you really exist? And you really killed the mayor and burned the house for the sake of this little girl, that is, Alice? ”

Freddy was silent for a moment and shook his head: "No, you're only half right, the first half. I was indeed witnessing what the mayor had done, and I was in the shadow under that tree. Freddy pointed to a carbonized bare tree trunk outside the window: "I looked at the reflection in the bedroom printed on the curtains, and I knew what was going on here...... But I didn't do anything. ”

"What...... What the? Ziliang was stunned for a moment.

"I know, it's not the same as the story." Freddy said, in that tone, there was clearly a kind of decline and self-blame that had not dissipated for decades: "The reality is always crueler than the story, the child who acted bravely did not exist at all, at that time...... I was scared, although I knew that I should rush forward, as long as that way, I could save the girl, although I made up a series of images in my head that I rushed up, but after all, I just looked like that, and my body was filled with lead...... Like a waste. ”

“...... And then what? ”

"Huh, then?" Freddy suddenly smiled miserably: "Then, everything happened, there was no heroic boy who broke out of the window, no novice police officer who passed by to see the righteous and brave, nothing, the reflection on the curtain, just continued...... But fortunately, the ending of the story still played out, the mayor died, he died in the middle of the night, and the person who killed him was Alice, and then a fire, just like that, burned like that, and Alice put it. ”

"Do you know why it's called Elm Street? Because, there were elm trees everywhere, and it was a summer when the trees were growing so luxuriantly that the flames went out into the streets, and they lit a tree, and then they ...... It was the second, the third, and then the whole street was on fire! ”

Freddy said this, suddenly laughing hysterically, and he opened his hands: "It was a fire, so big that it enveloped the whole town, and no one was spared, except me...... ...... with her."

Ziliang looked at Alice, and then at Freddy: "You two?" ”

"Yes, Alice is not an ordinary girl, she has a magical power...... Of course, I didn't know this at the time, and I didn't understand why Alice was standing in the fire, but she didn't have anything to do, but I just thought that God couldn't bear to let this girl go through any more pain, so he let her live...... And the reason why I survived...... It's because of the punishment. ”

"After that fire, Alice couldn't bear the torment of memories, she chose self-hypnosis, in a dream, to continue her life, and all these years, I have been guarding her, I rebuilt this burned house into its original appearance, so that she can sleep here quietly......"

At this moment, Ziliang's compass finally vibrate.

He flipped it over, and the information that had been incomplete had finally changed a little.
