CHAPTER 8 CHAPTER XXVIII

"This is ......"

When Zhang Chen opened his eyes in a daze, he was standing on an empty street. … As you can tell from the Japanese symbol on the store, this is an ordinary downtown area in Toei.

"Anyone?" No matter how Zhang Chen shouted, he could only hear the sound echoing in the streets and alleys, but no one responded.

After walking two or three blocks, Zhang Chen slowly found that this city seemed to have been abandoned for a long time, and the seemingly modern high-rise buildings had already been covered with a thick layer of dust on the inside of their facades, and there were even many vines crawling on the walls at the borders of the houses.

Zhang Chen walked into a bookstore and picked up a dusty book and flipped through it in his hand, all the words on it seemed to be glued to a handle, and not a single word could be read clearly.

"Dreams? If it's so true, it must be the so-called dream body triggered again. On the basis of knowing that it was a dream, the memory in Zhang Chen's brain that was shrouded in fog immediately began to slowly become clear.

"Sleeping in the security room on the ground floor of the hospital, dreams were able to pull me here, and I remember that this physique was able to recreate the past or the future through the local grievances...... Is this the place where it used to be a hospital? How does it not feel like it? And I've already walked several streets. ”

Zhang Chen knew that entering the Dream Seeing Body could dig up a lot of information, so he didn't stop at the bookstore for more.

Zhang Chen walked the streets, trying to identify some of the landmarks around him, so that when he woke up, he could determine the geographical location of the place.

As soon as he walked a block, the ground under his feet suddenly began to tremble, and cracks appeared on the road in front of him and spread towards Zhang Chen's location, and many houses began to collapse downward.

Zhang Chen, who was in the realm of dreams, did not have any ability to speak of. He tried to run in the direction behind him, but after running less than 100 meters, he fell to the ground because of the violent shaking, and he could only grasp a relatively strong electric pole with both hands to stabilize his body.

The magnitude of the earthquake was at least nine or higher, but fortunately, the rift behind it did not spread. When the earthquake slowly subsided, Zhang Chen let go of his hands and looked behind him. About 300 meters away from him, the ground was already in a downward depression, and about 2,000 meters away was the center of the depression. It has to be said that the buildings of Dongying are extremely earthquake-resistant, and many inclined buildings are still standing.

"Is there anything down there?"

Because the inclination range was about 20° to 30°, and there were many rock fragments and cracks, Zhang Chen picked up a broken iron rod from the side of the road to use as a pathfinding stick.

Walk to 300 meters and arrive at the entrance with a recessed slope.

Zhang Chen held the iron rod in front of him and poked his head forward, and the lower the collapsed ground in front of him, the steeper it became. And more than two thousand meters away. The center of the town's depression was emitting a faint reddish light, and because of the distance and the fact that the earthquake had just ended, Zhang Chen couldn't see what was inside.

Zhang Chen stepped on his front foot, tried that the ground that collapsed down here was relatively firm, and then slowly descended with the iron rod, and gradually accelerated the pace of the downward path as time passed, otherwise he would wait until he woke up from the dream. The next time I enter the dream world, I don't know if it will happen to be this point in time.

Look at the crumbling house next to him at a thirty-degree tilt. Zhang Chen couldn't help but pinch a handful of cold sweat in the palm of his hand, and every time he spent it, he would speed up his pace.

However, when stepping over a pile of rubble, because he paid too much attention to the inclined dangerous building next to him, his right foot stepped on a round stone, and because of the large slope, Zhang Chen lost his center of gravity.

"Bang!" He fell to the ground with a thud.

I am physically tough. It doesn't matter if you fall to the ground. However, after such a heavy fall, the vibration was transmitted to the past, and the root of the house, which was originally tilted, immediately broke apart.

Zhang Chen was just about to get up, a basin-sized stone fell first, although he was desperately dodging, but the stone still hit Zhang Chen's left calf that he didn't have time to retract.

"Ahh The pain is more real than it seems. Directly transmitted to the depths of Zhang Chen's brain, the hissing sound was reflexively emitted.

However, before he could stabilize the pain that filled his brain, a larger concrete stone fell down. "Click!" The skull is hollowed out, and the brain bursts out.

The pain of death is magnified several times, and it feels terrible.

"Damn...... I woke up, and I couldn't see anything clearly underneath! This is the first time that the dream body has appeared in this situation, and it is sunken into the ground, what does it mean? Could it be that the headquarters of the organization is located underground in that urban area? However, I still remember the surrounding buildings and roads in my mind, so I guess I can look up what kind of place this place is. ”

Zhang Chen was completely sleepy at this time, so he made a cup of hot tea and began to search for pictures of Japanese towns.

"It should be the center of an urban area in a second-tier city." At night, Zhang Chen took advantage of the power of the search function on the Internet, and after half an hour of searching, he determined the location of his dream in the center of Kyoto Prefecture.

"Kyoto Prefecture? It was once the capital of Toei for a thousand years, and Lu Sheng also said that the wine swallowing boy was either in Tokyo or Kyoto, so maybe there is something to do with it. Moreover, such a historical city, which is now less prosperous than half of the four major administrative regions of Dongying, may have an ulterior secret. ”

However, when Zhang Chen tried to type something like, 'Kyoto is not the capital of Dongying', 'What happened to Kyoto in the 19th century?' None of the relevant information of this kind of search term has been searched, and all of them are some mismatched information.

Because he couldn't find any useful information at all, Zhang Chen looked at the time '4:55' under the computer, and in desperation, he could only try to fall asleep again to see if he could continue the previous dream.

…………

"Hey...... Can you really sleep, are you not used to the water and soil? ”

Zhang Chenmo vaguely heard the sound of someone talking, and when he opened his eyes, Lu Sheng was already standing beside his bed.

"What time is it?" Zhang Chen's head felt a little dizzy, perhaps because he had slept for too long, and the second time he fell asleep, his head was completely dark, and there was no dream at all.

"There's still half an hour to ten o'clock, when will the cat let you go?"

"What? Half past nine? Zhang Chen jumped up from the bed, "Did your illusion apply it to me?" The appointed time is almost up. In addition, I borrowed a little yen, and I haven't had time to exchange it yet. ”

Zhang Chen has always been a punctual person, and this is the first time he has met a cat again, and the first impression is very important.

"Did you get it done while you were sleeping, and the cat told you to come before ten o'clock? You'll have to hurry, the subway will take at least fifteen minutes, and you must not use any of the Prison Envoy's abilities. ”

“ok!” After Zhang Chen hurriedly changed his clothes, he walked out of the hospital without looking back.

In a hurry, Zhang Chen was particularly uncomfortable with the non-Chinese signs on the road, but fortunately, many Japanese signs were watched in English, and finally arrived at the 'Ximu Street' written in the letter at 9:55.

"Matsumoto Ae? What if the name on the house number is in Japanese? ”

Zhang Chen ran between the blocks, constantly looking left and right at the house numbers on both sides of the road, there was a sound of chatting in his ears, and when he looked up, there was a beautiful woman standing in the courtyard of a Japanese-style villa, chatting happily with a middle-aged woman walking on the road across her courtyard.

When Zhang Chen cast his gaze over, the left eye of the woman in the courtyard turned to look at Zhang Chen, while the right eye was unmoved, still looking at the woman chatting face.

When Zhang Chen walked over slowly, the conversation between the two seemed to be over, and the woman also turned around and walked back to her house, and motioned Zhang Chen behind her with her eyes to enter the house before entering the door.

As soon as Zhang Chen stepped into the courtyard, a feeling of uncomfort lingered all over his body, and he instinctively felt that there seemed to be something evil hidden in the house.

"Meow!" A long-tailed black cat came up from nowhere and put its head at Zhang Chen's feet. In an instant, this uncomfortable feeling vanished.

"Good!" Zhang Chen touched the black cat's head and followed him into the building.

Shoes are neatly placed in the shoe changing area, and it is a bit of a novelty to walk in this Japanese-style building with socks on.

"Go and sit in the living room, I'm afraid you're in a hurry because you haven't had time to eat breakfast. There are still some cooked meats and seafood left in the kitchen, so let's make you two rice balls. ”

A gentle voice came from inside the kitchen.

"Thank you!" Zhang Chen sat cross-legged under the warm table in the hall, and the hunger in his stomach quickly became obvious.

After a while, two rice balls wrapped in seaweed paper were delivered to Zhang Chen by the woman on a wooden plate, and the rice balls were still steaming on them, looking very delicious.

Zhang Chen grabbed a rice ball and took a bite of it, there was a faint seafood fragrance between the rice grains, and there were also very delicate small pieces of fragrant meat mixed with it, which melted in the mouth and was very delicious.

"This meat ......" Zhang Chen suddenly recalled the cat described by Lu Sheng yesterday, and would feed the heads and organs of those lawless people to the wild cats as food.

"Don't worry, it's all fresh pork I bought from the nearby market this morning." The woman seems to be able to read Zhang Chen's mind at any time.

Zhang Chen didn't care about anything, and gulped down the two rice balls, leaving the delicious residue between his mouth.

However, just as Zhang Chen was wiping the rice grains from the corner of his mouth with a napkin, the woman sitting next to him suddenly put his hands on the ground, like a docile domestic cat, crawled over the wooden table separated by the two, and pasted his face with Zhang Chen.

The pale red full lips kissed Zhang Chen's lips after sighing slightly...... (To be continued......)
