Volume 1: The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Dark Pearl, Chapter 122, Strange Events
They didn't pay attention to this little conflict, after all, this kind of brother exists, and if they use their skills, they can beat them out of the shit, and after pushing the bicycle out of the parking lot, they walked away.
Mu Yi, who has free time, plans to go to the library in the afternoon to find out the history of the town, other information is hard to say, but at least there will be some clues in the newspaper a few days ago, after all, the disappearance of five children will definitely be reported one by one.
As for the meeting between the broker and Mei this afternoon, Mu Yi also decided to participate, because Mei may have some clues there, and each clue may be the key to the race.
Mu Yi, who missed the opportunity to kill the boss directly, did not regret it, but he still wanted to speed up as much as possible, after the law of the appearance of two clues, Mu Yi had a guess, that is, the world of this plot world is to give feedback through their cocoon of the events that happened, such as the sick Mu Yi rescued his younger brother and explored the basement to find clues.
So after lunch, he went to the school library, which is also the only library in the town, so the function of the town library to collect newspapers also exists here.
At the entrance of the borrowing desk, a chubby female librarian was looking at the book with relish, and the book in her hand was Stephen King's "Dying Light".
Mu Yi, who is new to the school, is ready to determine the location of the newspaper storage room directly by asking.
"Hello ma'am, where is the newspaper storage room? My summer practice needed to be a little worse than the previous news in town. Mu Yi asked with a smile.
"The newspaper storage room is on the basement level." The administrator didn't get angry because of Mu Yi's interruption, and replied gently, she looked at Mu Yi's weak appearance and asked with concern, "Are you scared alone?" If you are afraid, you can wait a while, my son Ben also likes to read these materials, he should be here at two o'clock. ”
"I won't be afraid, thank you." Mu Yi thanked him softly, but also paid attention to the name Ben, because this guy is likely to be TM or Iron Fist.
However, since the other party would come, Mu Yi was not in a hurry, and he directly followed the guidance of the arrow on the ground and successfully found the downward stairs.
I have to say that the stairs of this library are a bit narrow, and it should only allow two adults to walk side by side, which makes the somewhat dim underground library look very depressing, and there are boxes full of books on the stairs and corners, making the already narrow corridor even more crowded.
After walking into the underground library, Mu Yi reached out and turned on all the lights, and then walked into the storage room of the previous issues in the corner of the library.
It wasn't until he walked into the storage room that Mu Yi realized that he was thinking too simply, because there were several rows of cabinets here, according to the label on the cabinet door, this should be the town, there have been newspapers since 1890, from the beginning of the monthly magazine to the weekly magazine to the current daily newspaper.
"It's difficult, I've started to find it from the most recent one." Mu Yi opened the cabinet with 1989 written on it, and this cabinet was lined with newspapers from January to June by month, and Mu Yi directly took down the newspapers from April to June and began to look through them.
······
By the time Mu Yi had finished his lunch, he had finished half a day's work in the sheepfold outside the town, and he was free as long as he delivered the mutton from the front of the bicycle to the home of the orderer. So he happily pedaled the bicycle under him and started the delivery journey according to the instructions in the imprint.
And an hour later, he was left with the last lamb, which was sent back to his uncle's house, he remembered that "he" was an orphan, so he stayed at his uncle's house, but he couldn't remember how he became an orphan, which was very abnormal, and he suspected that this was the clue.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a rapid horn, and as soon as he looked up, he saw a high-speed sports car heading straight for him!
This iron fist startled, and now he is going to die if he is hit by a sports car of this speed! He could only make a sharp turn and rush onto the sidewalk, plunging directly into the side alley. After entering the alley, Iron Fist fell to the ground with the car and the car, and the mutton in the basket rolled to the ground.
On the way, the rampant laughter of Henry Powers and the three younger brothers was heard, and this was their way of venting their anger, after all, the news that they had been defeated by the Unlucky Club had made them lose face, and they had to release their anger in this way.
Hearing this laughter, Iron Fist's mind also came up with information about Henry Powers, he pursed his lips, stood up and silently picked up the mutton on the ground, but suddenly a strange sound sounded behind him, as if the chain was being pulled by something.
A team of fist gloves appeared in Iron Fist's hand, and he quickly turned around, but he saw a terrifying scene! I saw that the locked door behind him was opened by something, and one after another blackened palms came out of the crack, and after they appeared, a large number of flames seemed to appear in the room, and billowing smoke poured up from the gap.
A whispering voice appeared in the alley: "Mike... Hurry up, son... Save me! I'm going to be burned to death... Mike..."
Iron Fist felt that he didn't know why he was very scared, and he involuntarily leaned into the door, which made him startled, because this was obviously a terrifying trap! How did you get tricked! He hurriedly used the disposable equipment he had brought in—Dragon's Roar!
With a loud roar, an invisible wave of qi rushed out of Iron Fist's body, and the door was directly shaken open, but the incident was far from over!
A strange figure appeared behind the green curtain inside the door, and after making a few strange movements, he stopped, seemed to turn his head, and a pair of eyes in the shape of a four-pointed star appeared in front of him.
And the scene just now had already stood in place with an iron fist and covered his head in pain, because many memories that did not belong to him appeared in his brain explosively, which made him have a headache.
"Hey! Mike! Don't forget us! The strange figure slowly approached the curtain, as if about to lift the curtain.
Fortunately, at this time, there was a deafening horn sound at the entrance of the alley, and it turned out that Henry Powers and they didn't seem to let Mike go, so they rushed over directly.
Iron Fist felt his strength return to his body, he jumped backwards, and the whole person hit the wall, and now his head still hurts faintly, but it is much better, and he seems to remember a fire now, which should have some connection with the main quest.
When Henry Powers drove away, the house that opened the door suddenly became very quiet, and there was no movement inside, which made Iron Fist confused.
······
At this time, the pastor was still trying to recite the Torah in the church, but because he had no foundation, he was directly counted down by Stanley's father, and then ordered to put the book back in the study.
The study was located on the second floor of the church, which was originally forbidden to him in Stanley's diary, but he didn't expect it to be open to him today. For some reason, the pastor felt a little apprehensive, and then quickly walked up the stairs and went straight to the second floor.
Walking into the study, you can see that it is a small dark room, the only light source comes from the small six-pointed star-shaped window above, and now the light is directly hitting a strange oil painting in the middle of the room, and the priest feels very uncomfortable at the sight of it, and even his head hurts.
It was a portrait, but the woman on it was deformed and distorted, she was dressed in black, and she had a silver-white flute in her hand, and for some reason the priest felt like throwing up when he saw the painting, so he simply turned the portrait over, out of sight.
When he put the "Torah in his hand" into the summer vacation, there was a sound of heavy objects falling behind him, and the lamp on his head kept flickering, not knowing what was happening.
The priest's perception was not low, and his perception saw that there was a very eerie aura outside the door, as if something unclean was waiting for him, so he took a few steps towards the door and picked up the painting on the ground.
But when he picked it up, he found that it was much lighter than before, so he turned it over, and then he found that there was a blank space on it, and the strange woman inside was gone!
At this moment, the priest felt two slight footsteps behind him, which made his mind plummet, and he threw the picture frame in his hand directly.
The frame was pierced by a bloodless hand, and the creature in the shadows was dressed in black, while her head was misshapen, and her grinning mouth showed white teeth.
A great sense of crisis surrounded the priest, and he resolutely stormed the door and shut all the horrors behind it.
