38. Lost

In order not to alarm the people who may be in the basement, their flashlights have been put away at this time, Qi Jue is the first, and the main thing is to confirm that there is no opponent in front of them, and everyone can move forward safely.

From time to time, there will be dust and dirt clumps falling on the top of his head, and there are a lot of spiders and mice in the corner, these things are smaller than Hao Dong's movements, and once a mouse jumped directly from Hao Dong's feet, so frightened that he almost screamed. Fortunately, he is much more courageous now than before, especially at this time, he is his own person before and after, although he was shocked by the sudden situation, he immediately controlled his emotions, and did not panic, which can be regarded as a great improvement.

After entering the deeper ground, the surrounding environment has been completely plunged into darkness. In addition to Qi Jue, Hao Dong and Ergou must rely on glasses to move normally. However, the imaging of this kind of infrared thermal glasses itself is difficult for non-professionals to understand, and Hao Dong finally had to take off the glasses at any time and put them back on, so that he could combine the imaging of the glasses with the actual situation in front of him.

In this state, the three of them did not move slowly at first, but when rooms began to appear on both sides of the track, the situation changed. Although the glasses have a certain see-through effect, the rooms here seem to have special ingredients added to the walls, and it is not easy for people to see from the outside if they enter the room completely.

Qi Jue's footsteps also slowed down when he arrived here, he didn't need glasses, and his actions were much more convenient than Hao Dong and Ergou. So as soon as he appeared in the room, he was the first to enter. The sound of the ground collapsing just now was too loud, making them lose the lead again, and if there were really people here at this time, they would probably have already hidden. The enemy is in the light and I am in the dark, and I can't do it if I'm not careful.

Hao Dong followed behind Qi Jue, and whenever Qi Jue disappeared from vision, he had to take off his glasses and carefully distinguish the scene in front of him. After doing this a few times, the second dog who followed behind had a headache, patted him on the shoulder, and asked him to follow him.

Ergou was well-intentioned, but unfortunately he overestimated Hao Dong's adaptability, and forgot that Hao Dong had already lost him once in the mountains of Guangxi before. At first, Hao Dong did feel a lot more relaxed, as long as he looked at the shadow of the second dog in his glasses and watched him gesturing to let him pass, then he immediately followed. But after two or three times, soon the speed of the second dog matched Qi Jue, Hao Dong was a little difficult to follow, and after two more times, Hao Dong suddenly found that he couldn't find a figure now!

This feeling was not good, and he immediately recalled what happened to him after losing Ergou. Although it is theoretically said that there should be no more holes for you to fall into, the danger level is not reduced. Because he had just discovered that the track was not completely straight, and there were forks, which meant that even if he wanted to go back along the track, there was a high chance that he would go in the wrong direction.

It's like navigating a maze blindfolded, seeing nothing at all, but still having to pick a way to move forward. Whether it was intuition or luck, Hao Dong didn't feel that he had enough capital to break out, even if it was a problem to return the same way.

But at least he won't panic right now, there was no one in his field of vision, no one answered after shouting softly, and there was no danger, so he calmed down, took out a flashlight from his bag, held the front end to control the light within a certain range, and then began to carefully observe the surroundings.

At least, he had to figure out how he lost the person just now, obviously the figure of Ergou was still dangling in front of him a moment ago, and he didn't look down at other places this time, how could he disappear so suddenly?

Hao Dong was taken aback by this, because he found that he seemed to have entered a certain room. He remembered that he was just standing on the side of the track, and then the second dog suddenly disappeared, so he took two steps out of here. It's really just two steps, left foot, right foot, and then you stand still. But with such a distance of about one meter between two small steps, how could it be possible to enter a certain room?

There didn't seem to be anyone in the room, Hao Dong took back his hand blocking the flashlight, and the flashlight shone out, and Hao Dong looked around to understand. It may have been a hall in the first place, so the door itself was very wide, and the door panel was removed, so that there was no obstacle to entering and exiting; And because it's a hall, it's more prominent than the other rooms, which shortens the distance from the track to here.

But figuring this out is not helpful in finding Qi Jue and Ergou, a hall, and not a black hole, it is impossible for them to come in and be swallowed. Hao Dong turned around cautiously along the wall of the hall with a flashlight, confirming that there was really no secret passage or anything like that, and there was not even a door leading to the next room, and the confusion in his heart became heavier and heavier.

He's not a second dog, let alone a stranger, just a rookie who fully realizes how weak he is, and the first choice at this time is not to continue the search to satisfy his curiosity, but to quit and see if he missed something outside. As a result, he realized that this seemed to be a trap, and the wide gate hole behind him just now was gone, replaced by an ordinary-sized doorway.

Hao Dong's sweat came down in an instant.

What the hell did the heart say he had entered? How can it be like a big space shift?! Or are you hallucinating again? This can't be, there are no strange additives in what everyone eats today, otherwise they wouldn't have to wait until now, they should have had a seizure before they slipped out of the police station.

Could it be that since the experience of leaving the police station, it was all about dreaming? How is this possible! Hao Dong patted his head, drove away these messy and unbounded thoughts, calmed down, and continued to turn on the flashlight to check carefully. He still doesn't believe it, so big door hole can say no!

He really saw that something was wrong, and this room didn't seem to be quadrangular.

Because of the large place here, it is impossible for the flashlight to illuminate it all, and he only roughly understood that this place might be a hall, so he tacitly agreed in his mind that it should be the same as a normal hall. But now on closer inspection, it turns out that the room was hexagonal.

Suppose the wall with the opening in the door is numbered one, and he goes around the room in clockwise order when he enters, then the first thing he encounters is wall number two on the left, then number three and number four.

If it's a normal room, it's back to number one after number four. But it's actually a hexagonal room, so wall number four is followed by wall number five, and then there's wall number six, and then it comes back to number one.

According to his inertial thinking, Hao Dong felt that the No. 4 wall should be followed by the No. 1 wall where the gate is located, but in fact it is not, it is the No. 5 wall, and there is even the No. 6 wall between the No. 1 wall where the gate is located.

Looking at it this way, Hao Dong vaguely felt that he seemed to understand how Qi Jue and Ergou had disappeared. This kind of polygonal room is really rare, Xiao Qi Ye may have understood it, but he couldn't understand why there was such a design, so his curiosity drove him into the small doorway; As for Ergou, it is estimated that it is very likely that after coming in in a daze, he directly followed Xiao Qi Ye into the small doorway, and thought that he had gone out again.

As a result, they entered different doors, and naturally they didn't go out, but they still lost him Hao Dong back and forth like this.

It's just that why haven't they returned yet? With the ability of those two people to act, quickly finding out the situation and then withdrawing is a serious possible option. And he's been separated from them for so long, it's impossible that they haven't found out yet, and they haven't come out to look for it yet, it's really not like their style, unless there's something inside that binds them.

As soon as he thought of this possibility, Hao Dong felt that his scalp was a little fried. The opponent trapped him and Qi Jue in the ice warehouse in the middle of the night yesterday, and they could secretly get the ice storage to the corner near the back door without them even being aware of it, no matter how you think about it, it will not be too simple people. If this group of people clashes head-on with Qi Jue, it will definitely be a big trouble.

So now the question arises, should he continue to wait here? Or do you want to go into that doorway and have a look?

Hao Dong carefully inspected the room again, this time clearly counted the number of facets of the wall, successfully found the previous door hole, and also confirmed that there was no door hole on the sixth wall on the right side of the door hole, and the only one that would lead to other places was the ordinary-sized door hole on the fifth wall.

After the situation was confirmed, Hao Dong struggled again. However, staying still in the dark is actually quite challenging for people's psychological endurance, especially when they are alone. So it didn't take long for him to make up his mind, at least the room next door didn't see anyone there, so he went over to take a look, and if he found something wrong, he would leave immediately!

Just three minutes later, Hao Dong regretted it.

This room is even more strange than the one just now, if the room is seen in a regular hexagon, the angle between the walls is not very standardized, so once you realize its particularity, you can easily tell which wall is in front of you; The room was an exact regular hexagon, with exactly the same situation on each side, including the openings that looked like they had lost their doors.

In fact, it stands to reason that in such a place, it should not be difficult for him to retreat to the previous room. However, from the moment he stepped into this room, a strange and inexplicable feeling enveloped his whole body, making him subconsciously almost completely give up the desire to act, standing in the middle of the room in a daze, letting the beam of the flashlight shine directly on the ground and wasting electricity, but the person fell into a trance.

Although he had no memory of what Ergou had rescued him in the first place, he knew that his lost memories must have something about this hospital after standing in this room. The feeling here was familiar, not the kind of familiarity that people liked, but it was indeed familiar, and the familiarity made him want to shiver. The cold air rising from the soles of his feet enveloped his body again, Hao Dong squatted down uncontrollably, hugged his shoulders tightly with both hands, and his head began to throb for a while.
