Chapter 32: Dark Zone
"There!" Shi Yuan raised his hand and pointed to the area shrouded in darkness and spoke. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Luo Yasen didn't say anything, and walked quickly in the direction that Shi Yuan pointed out, while not forgetting to be vigilant about the movements around him. In fact, he couldn't see the darkness that Shi Yuan saw, he just acted in the direction that Shi Yuan pointed out.
"Wait a minute."
When the two of them were still about five meters away from the darkness, Shi Yuan suddenly said.
"What do you see?" Royassin asked.
"Darkness. It's the one up ahead. I can't see anything in the dark, just those two stalls in the corner, can you see that? Shi Yuan said.
Luo Yasen looked into the corner, there were two stalls selling women's clothing, but by this time, whether it was the clothes on the plastic models or the clothes on the shelves, they were already covered with dust. Luo Yasen looked carefully, and found no clothes with blood patterns, and no blood oranges.
"I didn't find anything special for the time being, but I didn't find anything special." Royasen said.
"There's no way there's such a thick darkness here for no reason." Shi Yuan said.
"I'll take a look at it from the side." Royasen said.
Royasen slowly walked to the side of the corner, still more than five meters away from the area. The moment he looked into the counter from his vantage point, his eyes changed.
"Shi Yuan, what we need to find is blood orange, right?" Royassin asked.
"Hmm."
"That dried or rotten blood orange is also a blood orange, right?"
"Probably yes."
"Then, the blood orange is found." Royasen said. He still didn't dare to approach the corner. In order to let Shi Yuan see clearly, he took out his mobile phone and took a photo and brought it to Shi Yuan.
The photos are taken of two blood oranges that have been left for an unknown amount of time, one with dried skin and the other with rotten skin. Underneath the two blood oranges was a piece of clothing with a vampire motif that was identical to the one on the flyer.
"The question now is how to get the blood orange out." Royasen said.
"Or let's think about another question, why does it look like no one has been here for a long time?"
"Illusion?" Royassen speculated.
"That's right. Like the thickness of the ash on the ground now, it takes at least a year for no one to walk before it can be piled up, but I also came here half a year ago, it was this fifth floor, there was no abnormality at that time, there were a lot of people here, and it was absolutely impossible for no one to come here for a year. The most direct proof of this is that if you close your eyes and touch the ground, you will feel that the ground is clean. ”
Royasen glanced at the ground, crouched down, closed his eyes, and touched the ground with his right hand.
It was clean and didn't feel like it was in contact with a big pile of dust.
"How did you find out?" Royasen opened his eyes, stood up again, and asked.
"There are two simple reasons, first, if it is really full of dust as we see, then there must be a strong smell of dust in the air, but there is no here; Second, if you look closely, you look a little different from your usual appearance. ”
"What do I look like?" Luo Yasen was slightly surprised.
"yes, it's a year older." Shi Yuan said very seriously.
Luo Yasen suddenly felt a little speechless when he heard this, and was silent for a long time before he said: "In one year, I won't change much, right?" ”
"It's not big, but it's still there. In fact, if you look at my appearance carefully, you will definitely find a difference, and the changes in me will definitely be greater than yours, after all, I am only seventeen years old now, and there will definitely be a big change when I grow up to eighteen. ”
"The ...... ......Indeed," Royasen's words were full of incredulity. He hadn't noticed it before, but now after listening to Shi Yuan's words, he finally found out that Shi Yuan was different after careful observation.
"You seem to be getting taller. If you look closely, your appearance has changed a little, but it's just a little bit, a little bit mature. Royassen continued.
"So, my guess is that this is what this place will look like a year from the real time we have now, and of course, it's set in an environment where no one is here. According to this setting, if no one really came here for a whole year, it would indeed look like this. ”
"But we don't belong in this mall. Why have we changed? Luo Yasen said.
"This is probably due to the fact that this change is not based on the mall itself, but on this range, and everything that enters the range will change in a year."
"The two of us lost a year of life for some reason?" Royasen's expression was a little complicated.
"It's not like that. If my speculation is correct, it is really just a visual illusion, that is, an illusion. As long as we get out of this range, we will still return to the way we were. ”
"That'...... What about the two blood oranges? ”
"When you take it out, it might be fresh, too."
"What do you feel is that darkness?"
"I didn't feel the danger for the time being. However, it's better not to rush past. ”
"I'll try it first."
As he spoke, Luo Yasen broke a branch from the fortune tree next to him. According to Shi Yuan, the scene they have seen so far has not been interfered with by anyone for a year, so the leaves on the branches themselves have withered and yellowed. Luo Yasen stretched the branch into the dark area described by Shi Yuan, and this time, without Shi Yuan to say, Luo Yasen had clearly seen that the leaves of the Fortune Tree had disappeared a lot, and the branches themselves had become more dry. Shocked by Royasen, he retracted the branch, and the branch returned to its original state again. Although Luo Yasen was surprised by this stretch and contraction, he also found that the change of the branch did not occur suddenly on the whole branch, but as if there was a dividing line, and there was no change on one side of the dividing line, but once the dividing line was crossed, the leaves on that side would disappear.
"In other words, the dark area you see is just a further illusion? If the outside is a year later, then the inside, maybe two years later? Royasen speculated.
"Possibly." Shi Yuan said.
"If that's all, there's no need to worry, it's just a visual change, and there's no actual danger, I can just take out the blood orange."
Shi Yuan's brows furrowed, but he didn't speak.
Luo Yasen looked at him, and instead of walking directly over in a reckless manner, he stretched out a hand and stretched it over the dividing line.
Hands, there seems to be no change.
Royassen turned his hand around again, still noticing any change.
After all, hands and faces are not the same, and relatively speaking, the appearance of hands is relatively stable.
