Once Bud Brown was gone, Norton and David walked towards the beer cooler at the other end of the store, glancing back as they passed the shelves for housewares and clothing accessories. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He noticed that the large glass frame had been deformed and cracked, which made him worried.

If things go in the worst direction...... These fragile glasses certainly can't withstand the invasion of monsters.

He even saw that there was a piece of glass in the far south that was even incomplete...... At the time of that bizarre earthquake, a small piece of glass mold wall cracked and fell off from the upper left corner of the window.

Maybe you can plug that hole with a cloth or something? Or maybe you can use a thirty-five-dollar women's sweatshirt that I just saw on the shelf—or something?

David's thoughts were abruptly interrupted as he felt like he was whimsical.

Plugging the hole with a mass of cloth to stop the tentacles that swept Nome away? This is ridiculous.

With a self-deprecating laugh, he quickened his pace to catch up with Norton in front of him.

"David, are you alright?" Norton looked at David, whose face was a little gloomy, and asked suspiciously,

"Your face - has something happened?"

David was just about to say something when something suddenly came to mind.

"Brent, what's wrong with the guy who came into the store and said there was a monster in the fog that had taken Old John?"

"He passed out, and then Mr. Brown took the sniffing salt out of the first aid kit and asked him to sniff, and he woke up. How? Norton asked.

"When he woke up, did he say anything more?" David still remembered that when the other party staggered to the supermarket in a panic, he shouted that there was a monster in the fog.

"When he woke up, he started talking nonsense, so Mr. Brown took him to the office. Some women were terrified by him...... And he seems to be afraid of glass windows. Mr. Brown seemed happy to stay in the manager's office when he told him that there was only a small window in the manager's office and that there was barbed wire outside. I think he's probably still there...... What a weird person, probably because he's under too much pressure on a regular basis, and when something happens, he will have panic persecution paranoia, Davy? You okay? ”

Seeing David's somewhat stunned expression, Norton shouted.

"No, what he said is true." Slowly turning his head to look at Norton.

"Wow, that's weird."

"Nope! Brent! Do you remember that bang we heard? ”

"But! David: ! Norton held out his hands, his face a little unswerving.

"Do you see the double door behind the beer cabinet!?"

His gaze followed the direction of David's finger,

"Isn't one of those beer drinkers the other manager? Surname Wicks? If Brown had seen it, I'd say that guy would have to find another job soon. ”

"Brent, listen to me!"

Norton looked at David absentmindedly, "OK, OK...... Sorry, David, what did you say? ”

"Do you see those two doors?"

"Of course, what's wrong with those two doors?"

"Those two doors lead to the warehouse, which is the west side of the building. Billy was sleepy just now, so I went inside to see if I could find a blanket or something for him to sleep under for a while, but I suddenly heard something unusual from the generator, and when I went in, I found it smoking, and then ......"

David told everything in the open, hiding only the quarrel over whether Noem should go out or not.

The tentacles that crawled in about something, huge like squid with dense suckers...... And the last scream.

However, Brent Norton refused to believe it, he didn't even think about it, so he pointed to David and said:

"You're crazy, I think you should see a doctor."

"No...... I swear I'm not crazy, Brent, come here, maybe you should check these out. ”

David then led him to the three beer-drinking trio, the edge of the warehouse door.

By this time, however, Jim and Myron were almost half drunk.

Norton looked at the three of them with a look of disgust, and was about to say something, when Jim suddenly said,

"Did you tell him?"

David nodded and didn't continue to speak.

"That doesn't seem to be going too well, does it? Barrister, don't you believe it, do you? Big tentacles! Monster! Jim's mouth snorted with a puff of wine.

"It's all true." Ollie, the only sober one, said with a sad face.

However, Norton still refuses to believe it, and even tries to run away from it.

"No," he said, "no...... No, no. Forgive me, but it's ridiculous. If you don't want to be happy with me—"

He then smiled in relief to show that he could afford to joke: "Then you have some kind of collective paranoia." ”

"Listen, come back to the warehouse with me, how about it?" David walked up to Norton and said sincerely:

"There's a severed tentacle on the floor, which I cut off when the monster got stuck in the iron door. And you can hear them, they're just crawling around by the door, I swear...... Brent, please. ”

"Oh, gentlemen, what are you trying to say? Want to scare me? Oh! I was shocked! Is that so? - No, I said no! Norton pressed his finger to David's chest.

"Listen, I'm not going, this joke has gone too far."

"Brent, I swear it's not a joke!"

Norton's gaze crossed over to Jim, and Myron ...... There was a pause in Ollie's face. Ollie met him with a blank face.

Finally, the gaze returned to David.

"Davy...... I thought our relationship had improved, but it didn't seem to be ...... Bad joke, right? It's a pathetic joke. There's definitely a banana peel there, and it's going to give me a slippery fall. None of you like outsiders, do you? You are all united. I've already learned when I sued you for what should be mine. You won that lawsuit, yes. Of course, you're a painter, and this is your hometown. I'm just a redneck who pays my taxes and spends money here! ”

His voice was almost screaming, and he had almost completely lost his self-control.

Ollie turned and walked away, clutching a can of beer, while Myron and Jim glared at Norton in surprise.

"Do you want me to go up there and see a rubber snake worth less than a dollar to scare me and make these two hillbillies stand here laughing off their pants?"

"Hey, who's the hillbilly you're scolding? You damn nigga! Myron roared.

Glancing at the other party, Norton didn't continue to pay attention to him, but turned to Davy and said with a sly smile,

"I'm glad the tree fell on your houseboat, and frankly, I'm very happy, so happy! Now, each of you will stay away from me! ”

Immediately, he tried to push David away.

Instead, David grabbed him by the arm and pushed him towards the beer cabinet.

"I know you're freaking out, Brent. But how many people's lives here will be in danger! So listen up! All right? We need you! Please! ”

With that, he grabbed Norton by the collar and tried to drag him to the warehouse.

Norton struggled suddenly, shook off the other party fiercely, and even knocked over several shelves next to him.

"David! Get your stinky paws out of my way! Be careful that I accuse you again! I swear you'll definitely go to jail this time! His eyes were bloodshot and bulging.

"This man hit me! He hit me! You can all testify for me! They're all crazy! Norton said to Mr. Brown, who had come over because he had seen the argument.

"Nope." Ollie, who was silent, abruptly interrupted his roar.

"David wasn't crazy, but I wish he was crazy, but he wasn't. Since everyone is here, is there anyone who would like to go down with us to have a look? Have it? This matter is closely related to everyone! ”

"Wait! What the hell are you doing? Mr. Brown, the owner, walked up to Ollie: "Have you drunk!?" For God's sake, Ollie, do you want me to hit your report? You don't want to do it anymore? Listen, gentlemen, I'm going to start recording now, starting with you. I'm already going to hand over this report to the police. But ......"

"But before that, can you shut up? Can you listen carefully to what's going on first? ”

Mr. Brown's eyes widened, surprised that the introverted Ollie would dare to confront him to his face.

But under the gaze of David, Ollie, Jim, Myron, Mr. Brown nodded,

"Okay, then let's go down and see what's there? Is it worth it? ”

Ollie looked at Davy, who slowly explained everything, including the anomaly of the generator, the blockage of the pipes, the tentacle monster, and the death of the boy Noam.

At first, everyone was just laughing, but by the time David finished speaking, the atmosphere in the store had become solemn and solemn.

David knows that when everyone faces unknown dangers, they will subconsciously resist and refuse to believe.

"Let's go, let's see." Then, he pushed the door open.

Brown took the flashlight and walked down first.

Several people were back in their previous positions, and the stench of the generator had dissipated most of it.

"Look, this." David shone the light of the flashlight on the ground, and everyone suddenly saw a shocking pool of red blood.

"And this." He turned the flashlight again, shining it on the tentacle amputation that was lying quietly on one side.

Brown looked at the tentacles with hideous spikes, and his eyes lit up with horror.

"This ...... It's all what it does? ”

"It's just a small part, a small part that I cut off." David gestured to the length of his fingers.

"Oh God! What the hell is this! ”

Brown bent over to take a closer look, but David hurriedly pulled him aside.

"No, don't touch it, maybe it's still alive."

On the other side, a bearded man with a motorcycle turban picked up a broom and poked it with the broom handle, and suddenly the tentacle struggled frantically, and slashed the broom handle with sharp spikes, and the wooden handle was quickly cut out of many fragments.

The crowd was taken aback and took a few steps back.

Finally, after a few seconds, it finally went soft and loosened, revealing a half-cracked suction cup. Then the tentacles curled up again, lay motionless, and then a wisp of black smoke came out and disappeared into a puddle of black water.
