Chapter 9: The Rift
Walk towards the hotel. At seven o'clock in the evening, the sky turned from red to black, and the surroundings gradually became a little quieter, but the biting wind became stronger and stronger, and the ears were tingling.
In the distance, a thick fog was moving in the direction of the left hill, and there were fewer and fewer vehicles around. When the lights went out in every building, he realized that ghosts had appeared.
It's about two blocks away from home, and if you run fast, you can get there in about 20 minutes. …… Twenty minutes, those three teammates must have died here. Zuoqiu realizes that the ghost hidden in the fog is the one who killed his teammate. As the fog drew closer, he ran forward without changing his face, slowing down until he stepped into the fog.
There is only one meter of visibility in the fog, and the light of the street lights overhead cannot even penetrate the dense fog. Take out your phone, tap on the flashlight mode, and Zuoqiu walks forward, every step of his is the same distance, even the same angle. This is an effective way to avoid going around and around for a while.
Sixteen minutes later, a white-streaked zebra crossing appeared where the flashlight was illuminated. Zuoqiu's expression was slightly relaxed, and the appearance of the zebra crossing meant that it was not far from the hotel.
The traffic lights across the road faintly glow red. The left mound crosses the road, and a vague outline gradually appears in the fog, and the further you go, the clearer the outline becomes.
When Zuoqiu walked to the opposite side, he saw a woman standing - with long hair and a mask. The narrow eyes are a bit bewitching and evil. The moment she saw Zuoqiu, the woman's eyes narrowed, and her eyebrows were crooked, like a cunning fox. She wore a large white coat, very long, almost to the ankles, with several buttons that were fastened very tightly from top to bottom. The woman was holding a blood-stained pair of scissors in her hand, opening and closing.
Zuoqiu quickened his pace and walked straight past her.
"Rub!" The woman who was still behind her last second suddenly stood in front of Zuoqiu this second.
"Am I pretty?" She made a crisp sound.
By any measure, this is a beautiful girl. If she doesn't take off her mask.
Zuoqiu knows that whether the answer is beautiful or not, there is a problem. Because the other party is a rift girl.
The Rip Girl belongs to an urban legend on Earth. According to rumors, she was originally a beauty before she died, but when she went for plastic surgery one day, because of some accidents, the doctor cut both sides of her mouth, and the woman saw her disfigured appearance, killed the plastic surgeon with scissors, and then ran out. Because children laugh at their faces, the Rift Girl turns into a monster in resentment, and she asks passers-by, "Am I pretty?" If the answer is "beautiful", the ripper will take off the mask and ask again: "...... What about ......? If she replied "not pretty", she would kill the child with a sickle or scissors; If she still answers beautifully, she will cut the other person's mouth open and make him look like herself.
If you don't want to answer and run away, the Rift Girl will catch up with the person at a speed of 3 seconds and 100 meters, and brutally kill them.
In this way, it seems that there is only one dead end. But Zuoqiu clearly knew how to deal with her. Perhaps all this is due to the so-called paranoia.
"Ordinary." Zuoqiu replied. The Rift Girl was slightly stunned, as if she was thinking about what kind of answer this was. Zuoqiu took out the candy he had bought before from his bag and scattered it on the ground.
The fluttering sound caught the attention of the rip girl, and after discovering that it was candy, she screamed a little happily, threw away the scissors in her hand, and lay on the ground to pick up the scissors. This was the best time to escape, and Zuoqiu was supposed to leave immediately, but the moment he saw the scissors that were thrown on the ground, he changed his mind. He picked up the scissors with lightning speed and ran away as fast as he could.
1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds.
Thirty seconds later, an angry scream came from behind him.
Discovered by the Rip Girl!
A biting chill invaded from the pores of the left mound, like several spikes piercing the skin. The fog in front of me has thinned, and I can vaguely see the scene in the distance, with people coming and going, and the traffic surging, as if I am in two worlds with Zuoqiu.
Only a hundred meters! The speed of the left mound has not slowed down in the slightest!
It's close! It's close! It's closer! I saw that a hand was already sticking out of the thick fog. Zuoqiu suddenly heard a gasp in his ear.
The Rip Girl appeared behind him in just a dozen seconds, her black nails scratching at his coat. A strong pull grabbed Zuoqiu and stepped back.
Are you going to die? The fog rolls and looks like it's about to obscure the view again. Zuoqiu's waist suddenly became hot, and a dark bill floated out of the collar of his coat, ignited in mid-air, and flew towards the rift girl.
"Ahh The ripper screamed and let go of her fingers. Zuoqiu staggered forward two small steps, not daring to delay, rolling on the spot and rolling directly out of the fog.
What had been silence suddenly became lively. The empty streets are filled with hawkers, the cries of hawkers come and go, and the breeze blows, bringing the aroma of barbecue and crayfish. People felt a little strange about Zuoqiu lying on the ground, and a small child ran up to help him up.
"Thank you," Zuoqiu said, turning his head and seeing that the dense fog was receding at a speed visible to the naked eye, the rift girl was standing at the front of the dense fog, with fierceness and uneasiness in her eyes.
It's finally over. Zuoqiu breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the scissors in his hand.
In the inventory, there is only one 10,000 yuan denomination bill left. At the same time, the scissors of the prop rip girl have been newly added.
[Rift Girl's Scissors (can bring out a dungeon)

It was originally just an ordinary pair of scissors, but because it had killed countless lives at the hands of the Rift Girl, it has now become a terrible murder weapon.
Notes: Increases Attack against Humans by 50% and Attack against Goblins by 20%]
Increases Attack Damage. Zuoqiu's eyes lit up, a weapon of this attribute can be used almost all the way to the middle of the game.
————
Just when Zuoqiu had experienced a thrilling adventure, Xu You and Jace had already returned to the haunted mansion on Tokyo Street. At night, the entire city of Tokyo is filled with darkness. The dim lights on the side of the road don't even do much.
Xu You turned on all the lights on the first floor, exposing every dark corner to incandescent lights, and he was slightly relieved. The two sat on the couch and waited quietly for 11 o'clock to arrive.
"Jingle Bell" rings the bell set in advance, and the videotape is put into the VCR. The cassette rotates, and the screen of the TV gradually appears in black and white.
Katz...... Katz...... A woman in white appears on the screen.
She has her back to the camera, her feet off the ground, and she seems to float in the air. And then...... Her head turned slowly......
Xu You and Jace held their breath, according to the routine, it was not difficult to imagine how terrifying it would be for that face to turn around, they were mentally prepared.
However, at the moment when he was about to show his face, the picture froze, and the screen began to twitch irregularly, accompanied by an extremely harsh cassette sound. The shrill sound continued to irritate the eardrums of the two of them for more than a minute, and then.
Brush! A miserable white face appears on the screen. The woman's facial features were covered by hair, and a pair of large, godless pupils could be vaguely seen between the hairs. Those eyes were so indifferent, Xu You felt a chill in his heart, but he vaguely felt a little familiar.
Have I seen this female ghost somewhere? She couldn't help but think, then smiled wryly and threw the unreliable thought out of her mind.
The woman faces the camera, and her eyes seem to be looking at the two of them through an electronic device. She opened her mouth, her tongue back and forth, making a sticky, rapid licking sound. The sound grew faster and faster, lasting a full five minutes. "Ahh A large mouth suddenly took over the whole picture. Kazkaz ...... The tape jammed again and snowflakes appeared on the screen. A poignant, muffled voice came from the television.
"In a day, you'll die."
As soon as the words fell, the TV screen went black and the content ended.
The two were still terrified of the tape and did not come back to their senses. Two minutes later, Jace swallowed and asked, "Captain, what are we going to do next?" ”
"According to what the Taoist priest said, bring out the coconuts and the handsome people."
"How do you lead?"
"Go to the warehouse on the second floor."
————
The door of the warehouse on the second floor is closed. At the junction between the door and the wall, layers of tape were applied. The two tore the tape apart, and there was no more movement. With a squeak, the door opens automatically.
This room was once Gaco's bedroom, and later a driver resident used it as a warehouse for the other party's garbage. There was a pile of scrap of steel and rags inside.
Xu You and Jace walked in. The two haphazardly placed broken dolls stiffened and turned their heads, plastic eyes staring straight at them. One minute, two minutes...... Gacoco and Toshio did not appear.
"Why can't I come out at this time?" Jace spat in his mouth.
Xu Yu nodded in agreement, and after looking around the room for a week, he set his eyes on the wardrobe on the far left. The surface of the wardrobe was covered with a large number of blood-stained yellow charms, some of which had turned up at the corners, and some of which were tattered and unshaped. Obviously, the weirdest thing in the room at this time. Xu Yu slowly approached the closet and opened it. Among them were several shirts that had a musty smell.
Nothing special, it seems?
Moving his gaze up, on the top floor of the wardrobe, there was a big hole.
"Jace, get ready to escape." Xu Yu reminded Jace, who was standing at the door, and with one hand, he got into the top of the cabinet, he took out his mobile phone and slowly poked his head into the hole. The glow of the phone illuminates a dark space. But there seems to be nothing special about it. Just when Xu Yu wanted to turn his whole body into the hole, the situation finally changed.
Where the phone's light source could barely illuminate, a blue face appeared, her lips open, and bright red blood kept spitting out of it.
It's gamma coconut!!
"Jace!" Xu You immediately shouted, jumped out of the closet without hesitation, and the two returned to the guest room one after the other. After trying to open the gate to no avail, they gather in a corner and wait for the two demons to fight.
Ga Coconut slowly climbed down the stairs around the corner. Xu Yu clenched Jace's right hand and looked nervously at the scene in front of him.
"Captain, I think...... Somewhat uncomfortable. ”
