"Well, that's the end of it, it's completely over." The thin man nodded.

"What do you think of?" I knew more about the skinny man than anyone else in the room, so I asked directly.

"The toy spirit is the doll. The toys that were controlled, and, the souls of those toys......" said the thin man slowly, "must be the guests who have been invited to the birthday party." ”

Nangong Yao looked at Wu Ling and said, "Ling's soul is gone. ”

I still look at the skinny man.

"Brother Qi, we're also being targeted, right?" The thin man tugged at the corners of his mouth.

"Hmm. You should receive an invitation. I nodded.

As we spoke, there was a clanging sound at the window, and a crow stopped there, and when he saw us, he opened his mouth, spit out a scroll, and flew away.

Aoba's people also came back to their senses at this time, and understood the thin man's intention to tell the whole story seriously.

The thin man sat upright, not relaxing at all.

Gu Mo walked to the window, looked at the closed window of the hotel, and asked, "How do I get this?" ”

"It can only be destroyed." Liu Miao was looking for tools in the hotel.

But for me, I can break a folding window without tools.

"Trouble." Gu Mo complained.

I pressed my hand to the window, and as soon as the power was activated, the window disappeared in an instant.

The scroll is what I've seen before. The wind blew into the house and landed at my feet.

"Are you ready?" Nangong Yao asked.

"I'll go with you." Liu Miao took the initiative to stand beside me.

I looked at the thin man.

The thin man put away his seriousness just now and became very hesitant, "This...... I was just thinking about the story and the doll...... Probably can, right? ”

The thin man made a prayer gesture, closed his eyes, and pressed his forehead against his clasped hands, desperately thinking about something.

When I look at the thin man, I know that he has come out of the super concentrated state just now. In such a state, I am afraid that he will not be able to believe what he has come up with.

I called out to the thin man, and when I saw that he was ready, I unfolded the scroll.

On the scroll is a nursery rhyme that the thin man just said. Unlike the nursery rhyme sung by the teddy bear, it is a dark nursery rhyme similar to a birthday song according to the description of the thin man.

I only had time to scan the lyrics in a hurry before the golden font began to change, flying off the scroll and turning into a little starlight that began to drift through the air.

A strong wind blew in from the window that was missing a piece and blew the scroll away from my hand.

The golden starlight turned into a part of the tornado and enveloped my body.

I couldn't see anything outside of the tornado, only a dazzling golden color.

By the time the wind and the golden powder were gone, I found myself in a town with a lot of history.

The town is an abandoned town, with a hazy sky that complements the gray tones of the town.

It can be used as a location for a horror movie, and there is no joy or dreamy atmosphere at all.

I looked at my body, shook my hand, and as soon as my mind moved, my body flew up.

Sure enough, my physical body was not caught in this space, only my soul came in.

It's kind of wonderful.

In the story of the thin man, it is not only the soul that enters the space, but also the body. The soul is forever confined to this space, and the body becomes a toy-like corpse. This is the story told by the thin man.

But now, it's just my soul that comes in.

And the way of coming in is too similar to the way a girl sends an invitation to introduce someone else's consciousness into the consciousness space she has created, almost exactly the same.

I remember hearing the girl say in a dream that this technique was not her ability, but the ability of another person from the Exorcists Guild to assist her in this.

That man probably died along with Kahlan and the girl in a revenge attack on things like toy spirits.

At the thought of this, I looked around warily.

It's probably not just the toy spirit in this space, but also the people it kills. Ordinary people are fine, but when they meet those who are capable, they will be in trouble. It may be able to manipulate some of the abilities of the able. That's the worst-case scenario.

I looked around and found myself standing at the entrance to the town, where my feet were supposed to be a main road. But now, the road is riddled with weeds and crumbling stone slabs. Not a modern asphalt road. The buildings in front are also made of stone and wood. Around the town, behind me, there were sparse or dense forests. The semi-primitive environment makes people even more unsettling.

When the wind blows, the surrounding trees shake and the leaves rub against each other, making a rustling sound.

In addition to this, there is the sound of wooden planks tapping.

As far as I could see, I could see the detached wooden windows swaying in the wind and banging on the walls.

There's no voice, I'm the only one here.

The skinny man didn't get in here?

I had such suspicions, and I looked around again, but I didn't see anyone, and I didn't see ghosts. I didn't see any yin energy.

It seems like...... I'm really the only one......

I let my soul float, and when I floated high into the air, my vision was so wide that I could see almost the whole town.

In the narrow streets of the town, I didn't see anyone. Some places are blocked by two- or three-story houses, and it is difficult to see clearly. I waited for a while, and there was no movement from the dead ends.

There was no movement in the forest surrounding the town. The whole forest is endless, and it is completely a sea of trees. You can see the mountains in the distance, but that's about it.

The road on which I stand stretches out like a forest. The trees on both sides of the road go from sparse to dense. Eventually, the entire road was swallowed up by the forest.

It's an island.

Perhaps like some games, the map is limited, and the edge of the map is an inaccessible obstacle or looping space that you can't get out of.

My main mission target, the carrier doll of the toy spirit, can only be in the town.

I spun around and refocused my eyes on the town.

"Hey! Is there anyone? ”

That's when I heard shouts. That voice is familiar to me.

"Hey—" The other party dragged out a long voice and roared loudly, full of energy, but it also made people hear that the voice was very young and belonged to a young man.

A face came to mind, so I cautiously lowered my float and floated in the direction from which the sound came.

I finally entered the town and naturally raised my vigilance.

The town seems to be truly deserted. I didn't walk in a straight line, I walked along the road inside the town, and all I could see was a ruined view. Through some of the windows, I could still see what had been left in the house.

It's not like a ghost town where a sudden disaster breaks out and all the inhabitants die, there are obvious signs of evacuation and destruction. The house was not fully furnished, and I saw a very modern graffiti on one wall. Even that modern graffiti looks like it's been a long time, and the color is mottled and dull.

This corresponds to the story of the thin man. This town was not slaughtered by toy spirits in an instant, but by toy spirits little by little, and then attracted people who were adventurous and liked supernatural events.

"Hey! Is there anyone? The voice shouted again, and it was already close at hand.
