Iannie settled herself in, called Catherine, asked her to help her sign up for two more days of remote work, and then asked if she was available to help deliver some material about what she would report next week.

Anne Yi had already collected most of the materials she needed, and now, the machines in the print room of the press center are basically back to function, although they are still running a little slower, and the paper jams from time to time, but they can finally complete the most basic printing tasks.

To Anne's surprise, Catherine agreed without thinking.

This surprised Anne, who had thought it would be a bit of a conversation, as when she had talked to Catherine about Inferno, Catherine seemed to have a feeling that she didn't want to meet Inferno. And Catherine also mentioned that she was never invited to the banquet of secret people that was regularly held on Inferno's side.

After chatting with Catherine for a while, Anne put away her phone.

The tool hut she was in was on the outskirts of the Inferno estate, not far from the fishing port on the coast. The cottage is surrounded by green lawns, and there are basically no weeds in sight, which shows that it is well kept. There is a stone-paved walkway on the lawn, which connects to several other tool huts scattered on the lawn, and in the distance are the flower beds, driveways, and fountains in front of the mansion.

Anne narrowed her eyes, the front of Inferno's mansion seemed to be being renovated, and the blue plastic sheeting enclosed a large area. But the plastic sheet seemed to be more than half a man tall, and there was no machinery in it, and I didn't know what the fenced area was.

She wanted to explore, but she thought that because Ferno had placed her so far away from the mansion, and probably didn't want her to get close to the mansion, she stopped thinking about it.

As she cleaned up the house, she found a pair of fish hooks in the corner of the tool room, and thought that the hut was not far from the sea, and that in the evening or in the morning when the tide was rising, she might be able to catch a few mackerel in season and use the charcoal grill outside the hut to add a meal to herself.

Although Inferno told Iannie not to leave the hut, it should not be a big problem to just take a few steps outside to let the wind out.

It's just that it's only noon, and there is no activity for the time being, so Yi Annie can only go to Steam and casually buy a time-killing farming game to play.

The time-killing effect of this game is first-class, and when Anne evolved from the Stone Age to the Iron Age, she looked away from the computer, rubbed her neck, and suddenly found that the light in the room was unusually dim.

Yi Annie was taken aback at first, thinking that she had played dinner, and exited the full-screen game to look at the time, only to realize that it was not as late as she imagined.

Outside the window, most of the light was covered by a thick fog, as thick as milk, and Anne remembered that the place she was in now was the seaside manor of Inferno, and at this point in time, the fog from the sea was surging up to land, and the visibility was only about a meter or two away.

As mentioned earlier, the TV series version of "The Mist" was filmed in Norban, and the reason is that this fog may be generated at any time.

Suddenly, a voice came from outside: "Hello, Miss Anne, I am the housekeeper of the mansion, and I have brought you dinner." ”

When Infernor threw Iannie down, he did say that someone would take care of her three meals a day, and that although it wasn't dinner, it was still refreshments. Anna remembered the first time she visited the house in Inferno, and the lovely little desserts and the rich aroma of tea made her mouth full of joy and hurried to open the door.

Outside the door was a fog so thick that nothing could be seen, and there was no one, and as the door opened, the fog began to enter the warm room.

Yi Annie's neck touched the cold and damp mist, and instantly launched goosebumps, she remembered the experience of letting a few ghosts hitchhike before she came here for the first time, and suddenly had some bad premonitions,

The shouts outside the door sounded again, a little farther away than before: "Miss Anne, the fog is so thick that I can't see the room, can you tell me where you are?" ”

Yi Annie instantly became a spirit, and her vigilance suddenly rose, whether it is an Eastern legend or a Western strange story, there are always some ghosts in the story who try to make people talk or turn back, and passers-by will be attracted by that sound if they are not careful, and finally fall into the ghost's lair, and can never get out.

The sound outside the door continued, but Anne silently took a step back, and was about to close the door and listen, when she suddenly stepped on something round under her feet, and she slipped forward and fell on the stone walkway outside the door.

In the dense mist, time and space around Yi Annie were mixed together, and she was a little stunned as she sat on the ground, and for a while, up and down, back and forth, past and future were twisting and turning. It was as if in such a fog, one's mind would be powdered by this distorted force.

Anne shook her head, letting the unscientific feeling pull away from herself, and she found herself still sitting on the stone-paved walkway in front of the house. Behind him is a small open wooden house door, and inside the door is a dry space that is not hidden by fog.

She rolled back into the house, closed the door, and looked around to see that there was no debris on the floor, and the thing she had accidentally stepped on and caused her to fall out of the door seemed to be completely non-existent.

The shouting outside continued, flickering far and near, left and right, tugging at Anne's attention.

At this moment of confusion, Yi Annie's phone rang suddenly, and her heart stopped beating a beat. Yi Annie leaned in to take a look, and the phone showed that it was Catherine calling, so she dared to pick up the phone on the table and press the answer button: "Annie, the fog is too big over there, and it is a little dangerous to drive there, and I will ask someone to send you the information when the fog clears tomorrow." ”

Ianinono said yes, after what she had just done, even if Catherine really brought the information to the gate of Inferno's manor, she would not have the courage to go out and get it.

As soon as the phone hung up, she didn't have time to put the phone back next to the computer, and another call came in, this time from Inferno.

"Anne, don't forget, no matter what happens, don't go out!"

The call came a little slowly, and if it had been five minutes earlier, it wouldn't have been so embarrassing.

If it wasn't for ...... just now

Thinking of this, Yi Annie's face changed, and she took out the small bag that Catherine had given her from her clothes pocket, and the only intact opal left in it was Yi Annie's only reliance.

Opening the small bag, Yi Annie fixed her eyes and saw that the last stone was indeed densely covered with cracks, and it looked completely worthless.

With a sad face, Anne told Inferno on the other end of the phone what had happened here: "I'm not going anywhere, but what about my dinner!" ”
