Chapter 32: Hallucinations
[Fourth Avenue Nightmare Mission: The infiltration occurred at the clock shop at No. 6 Fourth Avenue, the client is Aaron Lee, the owner of the watch shop, he believed that he was contaminated after returning from leaving the safe zone five days ago, according to the information collected and questioned by the pickets, Aaron would hear whispers and unknown songs in his dreams when he fell asleep after returning, he was conscious but could not remember the content of the song and could not wake up immediately, on the first day he fell asleep six hours after getting rid of the dream, and the second day was nine hours, Twelve hours on the third day, fifteen hours on the fourth, and eighteen hours on the fifth, his body was swollen, and on the fifth day of the record he was able to see some kind of vision in a non-sleeping state, and the clock shop and Aaron had been temporarily locked down by the pickets, and it had been concluded that this was an ordinary pollution event that required an extraordinary person with the ability to purify. 】
[Entrustment fee: 20 old coins (Aaron, the delegator, said that he was willing to pay an additional fifteen old coins as long as someone could solve his troubles.] 】
Ye Fang suddenly raised his head.
Chen, who quietly came over to peek, smiled awkwardly.
Ye Fang was still staring at him.
Chen: "Haha...... Haha, this task can only be done by extraordinary people with purification powers, are you sure you can handle it? ”
Of course Ye Fang can, he has a purification technique.
Thirty-five old coins, Ye Fang didn't want to give up, but it looked like this guy named Chen looked suspicious.
But Ye Fang had no intention of talking to the other party, he quickly turned around and walked out.
Chen was a little sneering, the first time he contacted Ye Fang was purely to talk to him and hope to find a big guy to act together, but this time, he was a little curious.
After thinking about it, he stepped forward and followed.
Teresa sat back in the corner and allowed the upper and lower eyelids to fight.
The bell of the safe zone has been ringing, the day is approaching, and there are quite a few people walking around the streets of the safe zone, but the overall atmosphere is still oppressive and dreary.
Living in a city like this, psychological problems can kill people.
This thought crossed Ye Fang's mind, and he was shocked to realize that he had also become a lot dull these days, probably because there was no absolutely credible person to talk to.
With the talent of an adventurer, he noticed that the people here did not like the invitees and even had some faint hostility on the first day he stepped into this city, which made Ye Fang quickly break away from the dazzling and already thoughtful "invitee squad" and pretend to be a person from this world, despite this, he maintained absolute vigilance against the "natives" here.
One can die of laziness, but one cannot lose prudence.
Don't hesitate to speculate on people and things with the greatest malice.
These are Ye Fang's life creeds.
With the previous rat-killing task as a foreshadowing, Ye Fang is now barely familiar with the safety zone, and he soon came to Fourth Avenue, where there are many pedestrians, but there is only one place where no one approaches.
It was Aaron's clock shop, which had also been cordoned off by pickets, and a familiar old man sat in the corner across the street from the blockade.
None other than Old Jack.
He saw Ye Fang coming over, and his eyes widened in surprise: "It's you?" ”
Ye Fang shook the information in front of him for a moment, then folded it a few times and put it into his arms: "Is Aaron Lee inside?" ”
"Hmm." Old Jack's expression quickly returned to normal, and he said, "Have you read the information?" It's the sixth day, I went in five hours ago to make sure, he's still sleeping, he's been waiting for someone extraordinary to come and help him. The door, unlocked, you can go straight in. ”
Ye Fang nodded in understanding, then pressed the long sword at his waist with one hand and walked towards the clock shop.
Looking at this scene, Old Jack's heart was sudden, and he didn't know what he thought: "Wait! ”
"What's wrong?"
"You know, if you kill ...... Well, if Aaron dies, you'll only get twenty old coins. ”
"I understand." Ye Fang's hand was still pressed on his waist, and he had already begun to be vigilant before he approached the clock shop.
Old Jack opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just said, "Be careful, although the threat of pollution is not as good as that of dark creatures, it is still very troublesome if it is touched." ”
Ye Fang nodded, crossed the blockade line directly, approached the clock shop with a narrow face, and stretched out his hand-
Squeak.
The wooden door slid slowly into the darkness with a wail.
The door of the watch shop is very small, it is long, and when you come in, you will find the storefront, and on the walls and the ground are all kinds of mechanical watches that Ye Fang had only seen on TV before, and the style is a combination of Chinese and Western, which is suitable for the cultural state in the safe zone of the night city.
The sound of the clocks turning and the wheels was the only sound in the dark watch shop.
Other than that, there are some parts, and when you go inside, the light from the outside is even darker, and at the end of the store is a wooden counter, which is bypassed to lead to the living space of the owner of the watch shop at the back.
The loss of the concept of time is a terrible thing for mankind. Clocks and the bells of the Celestial Council are the only things that people in the safe zone of Night City can tell the time, so it looks like the clock shop should be doing okay.
Of course, a day in Night City is 26 hours.
I should buy a watch.
It's best to save Aaron Lee and let him give me one.
This thought passed through Ye Fang's mind, but then he suddenly realized that he was distracted.
Then, Ye Fang began to hear certain sounds.
The sound of the hands of the old-fashioned clock moving and the sound of gears suddenly speeding up as if someone had pressed the fast-forward button, and even formed a kind of cheerful tune, followed by ...... There began to be a ballad.
The immature and cold children's voice sings strange ballads that have never been heard before.
[Tick Tick Tick ......]
[The first person donated his heart~]
[The second person cut off his right hand~]
[The third person stuck out his tongue~]
[The fourth person lost both ears~]

[The eleventh person made up his left hand~]
[The twelfth person found his right foot~]
[The thirteenth person made a delicacies.] 】
[Tick Tick Tick ......]
The ticks are getting faster and faster, and the tunes are getting faster and faster......
Ye Fang turned his head suddenly, the clock shop was the same as before, but the door where he came from didn't know when it disappeared and turned into pure darkness.
The kerosene lamp he was carrying in his left hand suddenly went out.
Darkness crept in from the position of the doorway, trying to envelop the room little by little with a ticking sound.
Ye Fang pulled out the long sword from his waist, put the kerosene lamp on the ground with his left hand at will, outlined a purification technique, and the faint light lit up, not retreating, but advancing, all the way forward, directly into the innermost bedroom.
