Chapter 544
After the middle-aged man took the photo, he looked at the man and woman on the other side, who seemed to be silent, and said in his heart: "I don't know what the relationship between my employer and this woman is......"
"Tsk~ Although I don't need my employer to provide materials to make my business better, it feels better to do less of this kind of illegal and criminal thing...... It's too curious about the relationship between the two (the middle-aged man's employer and the woman)......"
"Husband and wife? Not quite like that, brother and sister? It doesn't seem to be ......."
"Tsk~ Forget it, I'll report the matter to the employer on the day of tracking today......"
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, looked at the sun, and prepared to leave......
At this moment, on the other side, the underground of this garden-
The dirty and damp underground does not see the light of day all year round, and the dirty water on the ground spreads, and the smell is a mixture of swill, which is disgusting.
Around the corner, there is a white wax, which is also the only light in the underground, reflecting the four prison cages.
The cage was a stench of decay and physiological waste, with dead bodies at the bottom, and more than a hundred ragged and mud-covered people on top.
In this quadrangular cage, there were hundreds of ragged men huddled together, with black faces, shivering, asking each other for a trace of warmth, and at their feet were corpses that had long since died.
Inside one of the cages, everyone watched in horror as a teenager crawled out of the pile of dead bodies and retreated.
The boy sat up, staring blankly at his palm.
He...... He? Still...... Alive?
In my mind, those desperate, bloody, and strange memories kept churning and making people tremble.
In the overwhelming black shadows, he was gradually torn at will, and in the cries of the people around him, he lost consciousness......
Thinking of this, the boy's pupils shrank suddenly, and then he closed his eyes, and then, the boy opened his eyes suddenly, and there were indescribable emotions surging wildly under his eyes.
The heart is beating fast. The surface of the whole person's body emitted a faint blood-colored light, and after a while, the muscles of the boy's body squirmed rapidly, and the whole person melted quickly like snow meeting sunlight, turning into a pool of thick blood like a slime......
Blood wriggled on the ground, screaming in horror......
Moments later, the young man's will dissipated in the blood and was replaced by a crazy and chaotic 'monster'.
The monster roared, trembling with blood, devouring and digesting the corpse beneath it, and a moment later, the monster squirmed and crawled in the direction of the hundreds of ragged men huddled together with black faces—
After a terrible scream and curse, everything calmed down, and all that remained underground was the strange sound of thick blood engulfing objects......
And above this underground, someone who saw all this from beginning to end showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then, his gaze shifted, looked at the monitor on the side, looked at the private detective who was gradually leaving, and sneered: "This kind of physique suitable for performing rituals is too rare...... I can't let you go......"
"Speaking of which, it would be nice if other physically-qualified people were like him and were private detectives...... Then, it won't be so much trouble......"
………………
And on the other side of the here and now-
In the middle of the mountains and forests near the outskirts of the city.
The mountains are blue, and the leaves are turning red.
Intense sunlight shone on the earth. Noon
Before and after, there were even more rolling heat waves, and the air seemed to be melted, flashing layers of 'ripples', like microwaves on the surface of the water.
A man with a somewhat pale face clutched a black book and walked on the mountain road.
From time to time, he looked around nervously, and then let out a strange laugh.
After a while, he came to a cave—a place he had never visited, but his God had given him a revelation to come here, so he came.
This cave is not large, about two or three cubic meters of volume.
It feels like a cave dug by man.
There is a statue of a giant with the head of an octopus, a human body, and bat wings on its back. (Note: Cthulhu is as follows: an octopus, a bat, and a human in rough form, he is all green, his body is extremely large, said to be as tall as a mountain, his soft head is covered with numerous tentacles, his body is fat and scaly, his forelimbs are soft and claw-like, and he has a pair of tattered wings that appear to be unformed.) Sealed in the deep sea of the south-central Pacific Ocean, the ancient city of R'lyeh is in suspended animation, unable to move, but never really dead, but constantly dreaming - the sea shields this mental fluctuation, but it is often felt by those in the world who are artistically gifted, mentally sensitive, or neurologically abnormal, thus appearing in their dreams the images of the cities of Cthulhu and Lyeh, eventually leading to serious illness, coma, and even madness. )
As for how to tell that it is a giant, it is very simple, there are also some kneeling fish-headed human-like monsters carved under the statue......
The man knew that this was his God.
The man carefully wiped the statue, then opened the book in front of him and knelt down in front of the statue, chanting unpleasant and obscure words......
After a few moments, the books and statues changed, and a faint light appeared, and the man was not surprised by this scene, but rejoiced, and the unpleasant and obscure words in his mouth became louder and louder.
Then, a series of figures appeared from among the statues, and the man did not pay attention, he was engrossed in chanting poems and singing praises to his gods......
That's when —
Emerging from the statue, the phantoms of monsters with human bodies and fish heads gradually condensed, and after a while, these phantoms melted into the man's body one by one, causing some subtle changes in the man's body, and the whole person became more and more handsome......
After a while, the man picked up the book and stood up, his whole person had completely changed, and he looked very handsome, but unfortunately the coldness, indifference and madness in his eyes were not much richer than before......
After a few moments, the man left the forest, intending to walk to the place where his mind had guided......
………………
At the same time, on the other side -
The night market, under the garden, in another 'experimental field'-
The middle-aged man, who was a private detective, opened his eyes and came to this underground space, and through communication, the middle-aged man knew his situation.
That's when —
Suddenly, the candle flame in the underground space flickered, causing the inside and outside of the cage to flicker and dark, and the shadow behind him also distorted slightly with the flickering candle flame.
For a while, the expressions of the people in the cage became strange and inexplicable, their eyes were full of fear, and they covered their mouths and noses one by one, as if they were afraid of disturbing any existence, and they did not dare to make the slightest sound.
Wow!
Next
In an instant, the white candle was extinguished, and the inside and outside of the cage fell into darkness, and the five fingers could not be seen, it was very quiet, very quiet, and the needle could be heard.
The middle-aged man's expression stiffened, but the detective's experience made him quickly regain his composure, holding his breath like everyone else, without making the slightest sound.
The cage seemed to be silent for a long time, in the darkness and silence, without the concept of time, until ......
Tick......
Tick......
The sound of water dripping from the top plate was heard at first, but slowly became heavier, and finally resounded in my ears.
The middle-aged man's hair stood on end, but he forcibly calmed himself.
A drop of water fell on his forehead, and it was cold, as piercing as ice.
The smell of blood!
The middle-aged man's keen sense of smell allowed him to smell the last thing he wanted.
This bloody smell is very fishy, very fresh, and disgusting.
It's not droplets, it's blood!
Gollum......
In the darkness, a round object seemed to roll, slowly, until it reached the tip of his toes, and then stopped by inertia.
In the next second, the white candle lit up.
The appearance of the long-lost light dispelled the darkness and visions, and the people in the cage breathed a sigh of relief, and when their eyes adjusted to the light, they looked at the edge of the cage.
It can be seen that the living people in the prison are covered with blood......
What's going on!?
The middle-aged man couldn't help but tremble when he looked at all this, and after a while, he seemed to feel something, the middle-aged man swallowed his saliva, lowered his eyes, looked at the head next to his feet, and a chill rose in his body, this? This? What the hell is this doing?
Bearded Beard? Devil? Ghosts?
Trouble!
This garden...... !!
Looking at the moist dirt that has almost turned black and red in the ground, you can see how murderous this thing is.
The middle-aged man's eyes were a little red, and at this moment-
Behind him, the calm cage became noisy, and most people were afraid, but at the same time, a kind of longing rose.
Hunger!
These are not middle-aged men, they are trapped here, the people who have stayed the longest have been staying for months, and the people who captured them have not given them food, so it is needless to say why they survived......
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps sounded behind the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man flashed quickly without thinking about it.
I saw several people running over, vying for the dead head......
Seeing this scene, the middle-aged man's face was ugly, and at the same time, he also solved a puzzle in his heart - how did they survive without anyone to feed them, and there were no food residues around, on the contrary, there were many human bones......
Looking at the crowd vying for human flesh, the middle-aged man wanted to vomit......
After a while, the middle-aged man resisted the desire to vomit, looked at the people who were eating human flesh on the side, and came to the side not to eat people, but to the side of the people who were watching coldly, and said, "You guys...... Why ......"
"Why don't you eat it......" One person sneered and looked back at the middle-aged man and said, "Because, we ate ...... last time"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man subconsciously took a few steps back, then looked around with an ugly face, and muttered in his heart: "What does that person behind the curtain want to do!? ”
