Lin Suo told himself with certainty that when the room was lit up, he carefully counted the number of people in the room, and there were forty-four people in total, not including blood-sucking mosquitoes and sources. The 12 people in the center of the room couldn't see the men and women clearly, and the remaining 32 people who could distinguish between men and women were exactly 16 men and 16 women.

However, by the time the ceremony was over, counting the blood-sucking mosquitoes and the source, there were only 38 people left in the room, and 8 people had disappeared into thin air. If the door of our room is the only one when we enter, where can one leave if the door is not opened during the ceremony? If not, then where is the other one? Why did they leave?

Lin also said that when he entered the house, he noticed that the two gatekeepers were standing in an awkward position, and upon closer inspection, he found that they were standing on tiptoe. Because they were covered in black clothing, including socks and shoes, they were also black, and the corridor they were in was very dimly lit, so it was difficult to notice this if you didn't pay attention.

So, when we left, when we met the men in black with the same makeup at the fork in the road, Lin deliberately observed their feet and found that they were also standing on their heels. And the platform that came out of thin air was clearly a soft living thing, when the mosquitoes were lying up, Lin found that the platform was squirming gently, especially when the twelve people in the center of the house shouted~ Well, the platform squirmed very obviously!

Hearing what Lin said, I remembered a sentence I had heard when I was mixed with spirits, walking on tiptoe is a ghost lifting his feet, which is one of the characteristics of the ghost's upper body. It is said that if a person is possessed by a ghost, the ghost will hold the person's body up, that is, the person's feet will step on the ghost's feet, because the human eye cannot see the ghost, so only the person possessed by the ghost will be seen walking on tiptoe with his feet off the ground, that is, his heels off the ground.

There is also some truth in this statement from a medical point of view, the foot is the farthest from the heart, the weakest ability to be controlled by people, the most prone to cold, and the most prone to perceiving abnormalities. The posture of walking with his heels not touching the ground and tiptoeing is an evolutionary atavistic phenomenon, and medically speaking, the characteristics of the body that are associated with atavism are either a disease or a sign of death, in short, it is not a good thing.

As for the fact that the platform is a living creature, it is more explained that the reason why it appeared out of thin air. Maybe the twelve people have been sitting on the body of that creature, and the so-called "ah~um" is to wake up that creature. As a rectangular bag gradually bulged out of the creature's body, the twelve people automatically and slowly slid backwards without standing up, and a clearing appeared unnoticed by the others. Those people stood up and circled to hide the squirming of the platform!

"Lin Suo, could it be that the blood-sucking mosquitoes and the source are the food that the creature eats?" I suddenly understood why Lin said that they were in danger.

"Perhaps, let's hope our guess is wrong!" Lin Suo nodded and said.

"Lin Suo, the gatekeepers I also saw were grinning with big mouths, their bodies and heads were crooked at 45 degrees, one arm was holding a red candle high, and the other arm that was not holding a candle seemed to be broken, the joints were very strangely extended, and five fingers were twisted and pointed at us, as if it was at that time that they couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion! Those candles have been emitting a strong smell of blood! ”

"There are oddities in the house, and there are a lot of things that need to be checked. Let's go quickly, meet up with the others of the Thirteen Institutes first, and hurry up to find the blood-sucking mosquitoes and sources, they may be in danger! Lin continued walking, this time he walked so fast that I almost had to trot to keep up. A few minutes later, we came to a small road where a gray minibus was parked.

Before we could step forward, the door of the minibus opened, and Shi Fan, Mu Ruoyan and Tang Ming jumped out of the car.

"Sister Lou Lou, I haven't been able to contact you, we're all so worried, fortunately, Lin has a fixed meeting place, you guys are fine!" Mu Ruoyan ran over from the side of the car, hugged me, and said without panting. Hearing this, my heart warmed inexplicably, and the others smiled with relief when they saw that we were all right. Lin Suo saw them smile, and he also smiled slightly, and the worried look on his face eased a lot.

Then everyone hurriedly got on the bus and rushed directly to the hotel where Yuan was staying. According to the police officer guarding the vicinity of the hotel, about 30 minutes ago, the source dressed in black and the blood-sucking mosquito returned to the hotel room together. Before the two entered the room, there was no interaction or communication with each other, and there was nothing unusual about them, but their faces were extremely pale and extremely tired.

After listening to the police report, Lin told the others what happened to us after entering Nanhua University. As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Ming reported that from the time we entered the old campus of the Lingering Garden, the pre-designated reception work had become very strange. First, the police officers who were ambushing near the main road saw a black mist slowly rising around us, gradually enveloping the figures of the four people until they could not see our whereabouts at all.

So, they tried their best to get close to the black fog, but they found themselves trapped in a circle 10 meters away from the black fog, and they couldn't get any closer. Later, the black fog on our bodies slowly faded again, and the police officers saw four people walking towards the back of the No. 4 girls' dormitory, and then the whole building slowly filled with the black smoke.

A police officer tried to get close to the black smoke, at first he said on the intercom, the black fog did not have any obvious smell, and in the blink of an eye, he passed out in place, and when he woke up, he was delirious and babbling nonsense, and he is still being treated in the hospital. And all the positioning and communication facilities installed on us lost their signals after entering the black fog and could not be connected to them.

Ruoyan also said that when we didn't even get to the No. 4 girls' dormitory, she noticed a strange black fog there, and thought it was a strange thing at the time, but she didn't expect the black fog to move. And when she just saw me and Lin Suo, she found that the aura on our bodies was a little weaker than before. Her words reminded me of those black candles that burned with blue flames, did people hallucinate after smelling the aroma of blood?

At this time, Lin talked about the blood-sucking mosquito, and the pace and route he was traveling in the old campus at that time were a little strange, and Lin suspected that the test that the mosquito said might be something similar to the Bagua Array. That is, in the process of traveling, taking certain steps, objects and smells, touching certain switches, and confusing everyone's mind.

"Xiaolou, think about it, what else is there besides candles when you hallucinate?" Lin asked me
