Chapter 25 Duty Schedule
Early the next morning.
"Look, Yin Luli, they went in the direction of the shrine again."
Gu Chong pointed to the direction where Yin Luli and they left, and whispered. Lu Qiu Wuyan didn't seem to have her previous spirit, and she was a little sluggish since she got up, and she didn't know what she was thinking. Gu Chong's words made her barely sober up, she stretched out her hand to pat her face, turned her head to look in the direction of Gu Chong's gesture, and saw Yin Luli walking in the direction of the shrine with her boyfriend and Zhao Chu.
"Going to the shrine again?" Lu Qiu frowned wordlessly.
"Did they know about the murals there?" Gu Chong asked with some concern.
"I don't think it's possible," Lu Qiu wordlessly vetoed Gu Chong's speculation. "Did the driver last night say that the station became like this, and that it had something to do with the shrine?"
Gu Chong thought for a moment, as if the driver had indeed said something similar.
"I've searched the basement of the mural, and there's nothing suspicious, so even if they found it, it wouldn't be a big deal. I'm more worried now that the clue to the time hasn't appeared yet, and if the time is up and we haven't found all the key items, and I can't guarantee that this thing in my hand is the key, then if we miss the opening time, we will have to stay in this world for the rest of our lives. ”
Hearing Lu Qiu's wordless words, Gu Chong and the fourth brother were a little panicked.
"What should I do then, big girl? How can people survive in such a place? The fourth brother said anxiously, and at the same time glanced at the well-behaved Fang Linyin beside him. I was going to officially pursue Tiantian after I went out, Tiantian was so cute, so weak, how could she die in such a place.
Thinking of this, the fourth brother added a lot of courage.
"Sister, you just have to speak, as long as you can use my place, I will not be ambiguous!"
Gu Chong lowered his head, his head was buried between his legs and trembled very much, the fourth brother was also a little moved in his heart, this little brother looked at the tall and big one, but he didn't expect to have such a soft heart......
What a fart!
Gu Chong is shaking with laughter!
"Don't say it, I really have something to ask you for," Lu Qiu was speechless and expressionless.
"No problem, big sister, my fourth brother is now your pawn, where to fight!" The fourth brother patted his chest and said proudly.
"I want you to go into the tunnel with me again."
……
In the dark tunnel, the fourth brother walked in front, his body trembling incessantly.
This woman is the devil, ah, this woman is the devil. Where would someone tell someone to go back to the place where they almost died?
Lu Qiu followed behind the fourth brother without a word, and Gu Chong followed the palace. In fact, Gu Chong didn't know why Lu Qiu was speechless, why he had to ask the fourth brother to accompany them to the next tunnel, could it be that Lu Qiu Wuyan still doubted the identity of the fourth brother?
Soon, the three of them came to the place where the three were killed a few days ago. It's strange that it stands to reason that in the inner world, the corpses will not be placed the next night, but the corpses here have been preserved until now. And because of the low temperature in the tunnel, the three broken corpses have not yet decomposed.
Gu Chong couldn't help but cover his mouth, even if he was a fierce and ruthless person like the fourth brother in ordinary life, his face turned a lot whiter. "Are these the three people?" Lu Qiu sighed wordlessly, looking like he wanted the fourth brother to take a closer look. Where did the fourth brother dare to go over, he glanced at it casually, then turned his face and nodded desperately.
"Look at the past,"
Listening to Lu Qiu's wordless and serious voice, it seems that he has to go. The fourth brother had no choice but to cover his mouth and nose and move over little by little.
The three piles of corpses were mixed together, and it was no longer possible to tell who was who, Gu Chong glanced over there one by one, as if he felt that something was wrong. The fourth brother barely recognized it, to be honest, he only met the three people, and when the train came, he was busy running for his life, and it was really difficult for him to recognize people in these three piles of minced meat.
The more Gu Chong looked at it, the more strange it became, he leaned over to Lu Qiu Wuyan's side, and whispered: "I always feel that the location of this corpse has changed, have you noticed it?" I remember the last time we came here, the piles weren't so compact. ”
Listening to Gu Chong's words, Lu Qiu raised her eyebrows wordlessly, she glanced at Gu Chong approvingly, stepped forward and walked to the fourth brother's side, "Do you see it?" ”
The fourth brother glanced around in the pile of minced meat, and suddenly, as if he remembered something, his eyes lit up suddenly. He gave him a quick look, surprised and affirmed, "These are not the three people I was with that day!" ”
"Why?"
"There's no one, that rusty kitchen knife they brought with them!"
That's right, Gu Chong also clearly remembered that the kitchen knife was metal, and even if it was run over by the tram, it would not disappear, but there was no metal in these three piles of minced meat.
"So, the corpse has been replaced?" This is something that the three of them did not expect, could it be that three more people were crushed to death last night? But there are no fewer people in the team, is there anyone else in this world besides them?
At this moment, Lu Qiu's wordless eyes glanced at the opposite railroad track, and there was a red and white thing, about the size of a palm, lying there quietly. Lu Qiu was silent and did not shy away, and directly stepped over the pile of minced meat and walked to the opposite railroad track.
It turned out to be a white-skinned notepad, and the reason why there was a red spot was that it was stained with splattered blood.
There are three black kanji written on the cover of the book.
"Duty schedule."
……
"Shen Jie! Shen Jie! ”
A woman with messy hair kept running towards the shrine, but she kept falling in front of the torii gate, as if something was pulling her feet and preventing her from moving forward.
The woman cried out in tears, she fell to the ground, and there were many parts of her body that were worn out, but even so, she struggled and tried to climb into the shrine.
"Shen Jie! ——”
In front of her, in the small room of the shrine, there was a constant burst of firelight, and in the middle of the scorching firelight, there was a black figure, distorted by the heat.
The woman's tears flowed out, and they were dried by the heat.
The hand she raised still fell weakly after all.
……
Lu Qiu Wuyan and the three of them did not go back, but took advantage of the light stick in Lu Qiu Wuyan's hand to look at the little white book.
The previous content is all arranged for the station attendant, and there are some complaints from the attendant, which is not nutritious, and Lu Qiu quickly flipped through it without a word, until the last one, on which a paragraph was written in pencil in a mess:
"There are only three of us left in the station on the last shift, after today, the seven-day deadline will be up, and then the station will be abolished, as long as we survive today, we will be able to live."
"There weren't many people in the town anymore, so maybe it was a mistake to build this station."
"I heard Ash call me and ask me why I left him. We're best friends, and if I hadn't skipped work that day, I would have died with Ash a long time ago. ”
"I hear the sound of drums and bells again."
"They're coming."
Finally, there was a bunch of pencil scratches on the paper, and it seemed that the person who wrote suffered some great fright in the end.
"Seven days," Lu Qiu wordlessly looked at the line carefully, making sure that it was seven days. "This book has really helped us a lot," Lu Qiu muttered to himself.
Taiko drums and bells, seven days.
"So, the other key item is the drum?" Gu Chong also saw these two key pieces of information, "Seven days, we don't have much time." ”
"It's okay, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain."
When Lu Qiu was speechless and the three of them came back, they saw Yin Luli, whose eyes were red and his hair was messy, pinching Zhao Chu's neck, while the others wanted to pull Yin Luli's hand away.
"It's you! You killed him! ”
Finally, everyone pulled away Yin Luli's hand, and Zhao Chu squatted on the ground coughing dryly.
"Sister, you really wronged me, I didn't expect such a thing to happen."
Yin Luli didn't listen to him, but stared at Zhao Chu in front of her with blood-red eyes, as if if it weren't for these people pulling her, she would have pounced and tore Zhao Chu apart.
"What happened?" Gu Chong was a little puzzled, Lu Qiu coughed silently and in a low voice, Fang Linyin, who was watching the excitement around the crowd, actually heard it. At this time, Fang Linyin walked up to her side and said in a voice that only four people could hear:
"Shen Jie is dead, and it seems that Zhao Chu was harmed by Zhao Chu when he heard the news."
"Zhao Chu killed?" Gu Chong asked.
Lu Qiu glanced at him wordlessly, and Gu Chong remembered that it seemed that in the inner world, it was not allowed to kill.
I heard that the three of them went to the shrine, but something happened, Shen Jie rescued Yin Luli and burned him to death in the shrine. Zhao Chu came back by himself first, and then Yin Luli fought with Zhao Chu as soon as he came back. ”
Listening to Fang Linyin's words, Lu Qiu raised his eyes and looked at the two of them wordlessly. Zhao Chu squatted on the ground, looking innocent.
