At this moment, even the most stupid person can see that something is wrong.

The reason why the demons who had been chasing them frantically and stopped in the shadows of the surrounding tall buildings was obviously that there was something in front of them that made them more fearful.

They may be able to get out of their own one-acre and three-point land, but they dare not step into other people's one-acre and three-point land, especially in this one-acre and three-point land, there may be something they can't afford to provoke.

Gray. Maine didn't expect that he would choose such a path of no return when he pointed to the diagonally inserted Tower of Babel at a critical moment tonight.

But unexpectedly, at this time Gray. Myne's gloomy face was dripping with a complicated look that didn't seem entirely remorseful.

......

"What do we do now? Captain? ”

Ji Yuanwen was a little panicked, he had been willing to be Gray. Mayne's pawn, only his horse is the first to look forward, but he didn't expect Gray. Myne's kick seemed to have led them into the ditch.

Gray. Maine didn't say anything about Ji Yuanwen's loyalty, just gave him a cold look.

Then, he looked at the sloping Pearl Tower behind him, and then at the ghosts between the tall buildings where there were faint whispers in the night wind in all directions.

Obviously, those demons in the Pujiang community did not dare to move forward, but they also did not retreat.

And for Higashinohara and others.

It's not possible to go forward.

Taking a step forward, it seems even more dangerous.

Gray. Myne's face changed for a while, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Camp in place, since they don't dare to catch up, then we'll wait here until dawn." ”

Wait here until dawn?

Meaning to camp here?

Hear Gray. With Mayne's words, everyone suddenly felt a tingling sensation on their scalps.

It's hard to imagine how they should spend the night in the environment of the demons watching, and just imagining it makes people feel like their scalps are tingling.

But at this time, there really was no better way, even Higashinohara didn't think it would be a wise choice to venture into the Pearl Tower in front of him.

However, he quietly glanced at Hela, who had diverted the topic earlier, why did she go deep into the Pearl Tower alone at night?

Could it be that she already knew that there was a problem in the Pearl Tower?

But the other party is different from him, Higashinohara only knew about this situation after reading Marberry's diary? Hella certainly couldn't have recognized the words in the diary that only he recognized.

So where did Hela know?

Unfortunately, these questions cannot be asked directly.

Higashinohara had no choice but to shake his head with these doubts, and stationed in the small square in front of the Pearl Tower like everyone else.

It's halfway through the night.

The second half of the night is very short,

But it was extraordinarily long.

Whether others fell asleep that night, Higashinohara didn't know very well, anyway, he only took a nap in a daze around the wee hours of the morning, and woke up after a while.

When I opened my eyes, today was the third day of passing through the [Border] Gate, and the light around the small square was not very bright, and most of the people around were staring around with red eyes and wariness.

Hela didn't know when she appeared next to Higashinohara, looked at him with a wink and said, "It's hard to believe... You can still sleep. ”

Higashinohara smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "No way, I can't stand it." ”

Hela didn't expect Higashinohara to be so honest, and laughed out loud, and the plain smile in the faint orange light was particularly sincere and moving.

But Higashinohara knew that she must have hidden something last night, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, feeling that the masters said that the more beautiful a woman is, the more she will deceive people, and a woman will only affect the speed of drawing a sword...

He was thinking wildly in his heart, and suddenly heard a sound of excavation in his ears, and turned his head to find that several people from the black-robed execution team of the Ruling Division in the investigation team were digging something with sapper shovels around the Sky Tree.

"What are they doing?"

Higashinohara couldn't help but ask.

Hela shrugged her shoulders and shook her head, "I don't know, they started in the early hours of the morning when you fell asleep, and we hired capable people don't have the right to know." ”

Do you only use your own people?

Higashinohara had a thoughtful look on his face.

Reminiscent of last night Gray. With the look on Mayne's face, he guessed that maybe this was related to the real purpose of the Adjudication Division in organizing this investigation team, and he couldn't say what the specific purpose was.

Could it be that there is something hidden under the Pearl Tower?

A moment later, the gloomy and cold morning sun rose from the east as usual, and the Pearl Tower, which was tilted into the sky, reflected the golden light in the morning light, like a real road to heaven.

This scene is like a steep cliff where ice and snow have fallen silent, and a gentle and lovely flower blooms in the cold wind.

On the third day of coming here, everyone saw such a scene for the first time, and they couldn't help but be stunned for a while, obviously they didn't expect such a magnificent scenery in this "hell".

Higashinohara had already withdrawn his gaze.

Yes, it's only the third day, but they've already lost all their supplies.

Regardless of the purpose of the investigators' adjudication department, the premise for that purpose is that they must get out of here alive.

Now trapped in the small square in front of the Pearl Tower, even if it is really safe here, it will be difficult for them to survive the next four days without supplies.

Not to mention, when the Gate of [Boundary] opened again on the seventh day, they would have to return to the street where they had first come here near the Pujiang Community.

Otherwise, once you miss it, according to the dangerous woman who came to Beijing, every [border] is extremely unstable, and it generally does not exist for a long time.

It's likely that after the next closure, they will never be reopened—which means that they will likely be left in this place forever, and after a few years they will be bait for those demons, an outcome that is undoubtedly unacceptable to anyone.

"Assemble everyone."

At this time, the voice of the team in the headset came to Captain Gray again. Myne's voice.

After some tacit things last night, except for the Ji Yuanwen people who are bent on taking the line of adjudication, even Shinichi Niimura's perception of the people in the adjudication department has dropped to the extreme-these people really don't treat them as people.

When I evacuated last night, I followed Gray. The hired speed-based ability behind Myne will disappear, and nine times out of ten, Gray. Maine can't get out of the relationship.

There's an old proverb that says, "You don't have to outrun a brown bear, you can run faster than your teammates."

It's hard to imagine that a speed-based person can't outrun Gray. Myne is a capable person of the flesh system, unless something bloody and dirty happens that no one knows.

This time, the number of people gathered and counted, and there were only 10 people left in the team that was fully formed three days ago, and counting the 6 hired capable people including Higashinohara, there were only four people left in the black-robed execution team of the Ruling Division.

After the two sides met, the atmosphere was not harmonious, only Ji Yuanwenren, an old fritter, tried to play haha, but unfortunately no one on either side paid attention to him this time,

Gray. Myne's face was still gloomy, and he didn't have the attitude of these human beings towards him.

As long as you want to go back, you have to go through the [Border] Gate with him in seven days, and on both sides of the Border Gate are people from the Adjudication Division, and the big people from the Adjudication Division in Beijing will also appear at that time.

He was sure that as long as the hired human abilities were not out of their minds.

Even if he was the only one left on the side of the black-robed enforcement team, the other party would not dare to act rashly against him, which was the deterrent power of the "Adjudication Division", a thousand-year-old tree that would not fall.

After the assembly, Gray. Myne didn't say much, nor did he explain what he was digging near the Pearl Tower in the early hours of the morning with the other three black-robed enforcement team members, as if these things didn't exist at all.

He only said one thing, and that was to brainstorm a solution.

But where can everyone do anything?

Now the demons of the Pujiang community behind them have besieged them in front of the Pearl Tower, and most of their supplies are still in the Pujiang community, and there are obviously some unknown dangers hidden in the Pearl Tower in front of them.

The road ahead is blocked,

The back road is blocked.

They are the fish on the chopping board.

Higashinohara, who was silent, looked at the Pearl Tower, recalling the contents of Marbelli's diary and his observations that night.

He guessed that as long as he didn't enter the Pearl Tower, the periphery would at least be somewhat safe.

After thinking about it, Higashinohara still spoke, and made a bold proposal.

Then take a roundabout counterattack.

That is, taking advantage of the fear of the alien demons behind him, he passed through the Pearl Tower, and then counterattacked the empty Pujiang community with lightning speed, and then quickly transferred after retrieving the materials.

It has to be said that this plan is very bold.

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they heard this, but they had to admit that if they wanted to survive, they could only take the risk.

Gray. Myne also looked at Higashinohara with a gloomy face, Higashinohara thought that he would oppose his proposal, but he didn't expect Gray. Myne nodded abruptly in agreement.

But this aroused Higashinohara's alarm, and he knew that Gray. Myne held a grudge against himself for daring to contradict him, and now that he suddenly agreed with his opinion, it must have been a bad idea.

But now in this desolate and dead world, there are still four days left before seven days.

Now the two are like gamblers sitting at the table facing each other, competing to see who can show their hole cards at the most opportune time.

Or completely overturn the table.

......

After agreeing to Higashinohara's plan, they didn't hesitate much.

A group of ten people quickly integrated, and after passing through the foot of the Pearl Tower with trepidation, they quickly made a detour and turned back under the leadership of Higashinohara, who had an excellent "sense of direction".

No one stopped to rest along the way, and they had to arrive at the Pujiang community to take the opportunity to recover the supplies before the strange demons who were surrounding the Pearl Tower reacted back.

But without modern means of transportation, even if the remaining ten-person squad is a speed-based ability, the endurance and physical strength cannot support such a long-distance full-speed detour.

After all, not everyone can be as "well-rounded" as Higashinohara.

By the time the group finally returned to the Pujiang neighborhood in the city of hell that was the only one they were slightly familiar with, it was already almost forty minutes later.

Quietly groping to the entrance of the community, the community was very quiet, the rusty iron gate that they were kicked away when they broke through yesterday has been so rough that it has been reinstalled back in place at some point.

There was no advance exploration this time.

Time is of the essence, and they must move all the supplies left on the second floor as quickly as possible before the demons return, and then find the next temporary station.

Gray. Maine is also very strong and knows this.

So all ten of them set out, and quickly stepped over the iron gate and re-entered the old residential area that had terrified them twice.

There was silence all around, and everything seemed to be as Higashinohara had expected.

"Quick! Speed up! ”

Gray. Myne spoke at great speed.

Unexpectedly, the group didn't take a few steps after entering the door, and suddenly, Kenjiro Nanami, who was walking in front, paused and looked up in a certain direction upstairs.

Subconsciously, everyone raised their heads, but their eyes shrank violently.

I saw two gray black shadows hanging upside down on the balcony of the fifth floor of this old residential building.

A closer look revealed that they were the two wounded who had been injured and incapacitated and had not been evacuated together last night, their faces were full of shock and horror before they died, and the binding technique was like two "bacon" hanging in the wind.

Almost at the same time, there was the sound of dry footsteps behind the flower beds in front of the residential building.

I saw a woman with a bulging lower abdomen, followed by a withered man with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and a pair of gray gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of the man's nose.

The next moment, the two sides looked at each other through the flower bed without any obstacles.

The woman lowered her head and stroked her bulging lower abdomen, but did not look up, as if she was walking in her own garden in the early morning.

However, the shriveled and slender man beside her unconsciously trembled slightly, and there was a faint look of extreme excitement behind the gray gold-rimmed glasses.
