Chapter 284: Oblivion

It's come to this, after learning part of the truth, I can't let Xiaoxue's girl continue to stay in this dangerous place alone.

What's more, after reading the notebook left behind in Area A, I suddenly had a different idea about Lin Xiaoxue.

Maybe I can meet her and get to where I am today, step by step, not just a simple coincidence or fate.

Lin Xiaoxue's father, Lin Bayi, was also an initial participant in the "Indoctrination Field" program. I feel that Lin Ba and my father may have some kind of commonality, and it is this commonality that prompts me to hit her off at first sight and continue to this day.

From the bizarre case that happened at No. 37 L House decades ago, to the serial murder case I experienced seven years ago; from the red-clothed weirdo in the black gold case to Ren Fengyue in the spontaneous combustion case of the human body; From Guo Fangzheng in the Renbi case to Lin Bayi in the murder case. Even the deserted village that I inadvertently broke into before, and the evil incident that I bumped into.

Seven cases, seven murderers, more than a dozen victims, and countless people affected by the case. In the dark, these cases, or these people, are actually related to the "indoctrination field" plan of the year.

Seven cases, seven demons, seven crimes, and the seven-pointed star I saw in the church of Santa Maria Maggiore. All seemingly unrelated clues are now reconnected because of this underground laboratory.

Whatever the outcome, I can't let this so-called "indoctrination ground" continue to exist. No matter what kind of guy awaits me at the end of the path, I have to go down and break with him.

At this moment, the only thing I can use to defend myself is the saber that Lin Jie gave me at the beginning. However, if the other party was really prepared, it was obviously not enough to rely on that saber that was already a little sluggish.

However, if it comes, it will be safe, and now, the only thing I can count on is that Long Zaitian will bring the police here according to the agreement, otherwise, just me and Xiaoxue will have no chance of winning against those behind the scenes.

The crisp sound of the bell is still faintly ringing in the depths of Area B, and it seems that the other party has been waiting a little impatiently. Follow the red lights lit on both sides of the passage, step on the steel ground in front of you, and keep moving towards the depths.

If Area A was an experimental area, then Area B in front of me doesn't feel so depressing, it looks like a place for rest and daily work.

In the middle of Section B is a wide road, and the red lights on both sides provide me with great illumination, and I follow the sound of bells to make my way deeper into the passage.

I don't know how long I walked, but I felt that the sound of the bell in front of me was gradually weakening, and without the guidance of that sound, I also completely lost my sense of direction in the dark passage, and I didn't know where to go.

Just as the bell was about to disappear, a woman's mournful scream woke up the silent cells in my body again.

The voice was very close, and it seemed to be not far ahead. I couldn't help but be shocked, could this voice be made by Lin Xiaoxue?

didn't dare to stop any longer, so he hurriedly quickened his pace and rushed towards the front.

Moments later, the end of the passage in Section B appeared in front of me.

Different from the two steel gates before, I saw a wooden gate appear at the end. After years of baptism, the wooden door has become extremely dilapidated, and even the corners have been hollowed out by termites, revealing dripping wood slag.

It's a dilapidated wooden door, but its doorknob is unusually clean. Upon approaching, several distinct finger prints were visible.

This means that not long ago, someone entered the room through this wooden door. Looks like I'm not looking in the wrong place.

However, what surprised me even more was that in the very center of the wooden door, a huge inverted five-pointed star pattern was clearly visible, especially under the red light on both sides, the five-pointed star pattern was as bright as blood.

This pattern of the inverted pentagram will never be forgotten in my life, and it is impossible for me to forget.

Whether it was Ke Mobai who wanted to kill me before, or the young killer who assassinated Lin Bayi. Or the two murderers in the foreign pavilion before, Lei Tianlong and Sister Yue'er, both had exactly the same pattern on their chests.

Behind this wooden door, it should be the place where the other party wants me to enter.

Taking a deep breath, he stepped forward slowly, twisted the handle, and pushed open the wooden door in front of him.

In an instant, dazzling beams of light swept in from all directions, enveloping me as if the whole world was left with only white light.

Because of the long time in the dark, the eyes could not adjust to the white light in front of them. I only felt that the surroundings were blurry, as if I was in a circle of light, and I couldn't see the situation around me clearly.

"You're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

In the white light, an old voice came slowly, and I felt that he was close to me, but it seemed to be far away.

The voice is so cold, without a trace of emotion, but it makes me feel so strange, but it is so familiar.

However, the sudden white light made me almost completely lose my vision, and at this time, I could only barely grope my way forward by feeling, and I couldn't be sure of the situation in the house.

At this moment, if the other party wants to kill me. Now, in my current condition, I'm already a corpse. Luckily, the guy didn't seem to want me dead.

"You... Who are you? What did you do to Lin Xiaoxue. ”

This time, instead of answering me directly, the other party handed something forward and stuffed it directly into my hand.

Rectangular, thin pieces of paper, inferred from the feel, a bit like a postcard or a photograph.

"I don't want to hurt you, and I don't want that girl to be hurt. Nothing else, what I want to do now is just to remind you of the truth. ”

The voice was as cold as ever, but after listening to it, it made me tremble unconsciously.

What does it mean to recall the truth? Could it be that I already knew the truth, but I forgot about it?

"So, have we met before?"

"Yes, of course I did. It's just that you may have forgotten,"

Just then, a hand suddenly reached over and gently grabbed my wrist.

I could feel that hand was unusually old, wrinkled and calloused.

Although the cells of the human body are always in a state of metabolism, as we age, the number of dead cells gradually exceeds the number of new cells, and the moisture and radiance of the skin will decrease, which is also a natural law that cannot be changed.

Therefore, judging from this point alone, the guy in front of him should be an old man.

It's hard to imagine that the mastermind behind the scenes who is waiting for me here will be such an old man, and besides, he is the only one here, no matter how you think about it, it seems a little illogical.

"Kid, if you look at the content of this photo, you may be able to remember it." ”

Due to the bright light, my vision was temporarily impaired, and although I was gradually recovering, I still couldn't see the content of the photo clearly in a short period of time.

Close your eyes and let your retina rest well.

Taking advantage of this time, he simply opened his mouth and slowly asked the old man on the side: "So, if I knew what happened, why can't I remember it." ”

"Why can't I remember it all the time? Hehe, that's up to you. The old man's tone was still unhurried, and as time went on, I began to see what was going on inside the house.

"Actually, it's easy to say, man is such a cowardly animal. It's obviously something that he did with his own hands, but sometimes he can't face it, just like back then, Wu Jiang, the overlord of Chu, killed himself. But now, even the courage to commit suicide has disappeared, so I have to choose to forget it to make myself more comfortable. ”

The old man's words seem to mean something else, so the person he is alluding to is me, or is it himself?

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt that my vision was gradually starting to recover.

The retina regained its ability to focus, and then a red figure vaguely appeared in the field of vision.

I could never have imagined that the old man standing in front of me at this moment was actually him!

As vision gradually recovered, the situation in front of me gradually became clearer.

Dressed in dark red protective clothing, gray hair, deep facial features, and that extraordinary aura.

The mysterious old man in front of me, I actually knew, was the red-clothed figure who killed the dwarf in the deserted village that day. I still remember that at that time, he was not so old, why he had not seen him for a few days, and he had changed so much.

However, it is not so much that the old man killed the dwarf, but that he used some strange way to get the dwarf to shoot himself.

However, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid I wouldn't be alive now.

If I'm not mistaken, the name of the old man in front of me is called Ye Xianguo.

Ye Xianguo was the earliest owner of this mansion, at least on the record. According to the file records given to me by Lao Yan, when a strange murder occurred at No. 37 L Mansion a few decades ago, the earliest person to report the case was called Ye Xianguo.

In other words, the old man in front of him is very likely to be a witness to the murder back then, or even the entire indoctrination field plan.

"It's you?" However, looking at Ye Xianguo's old face, I muttered again.

When I first entered this room, Ye Xianguo had revealed to me that he and I had known each other for a long time. But why don't I have the slightest image now?

Could it be that he is deliberately lying to me? Or is that memory of him from a long time ago gone?
