Xiyuan Road is an old road that has existed since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the most famous place here is the antique trading market.

In the beginning, it was just a small commodity distribution center, but one day, a local master resold a batch of real people here, so that the market for selling fake goods suddenly became popular. Later, the authorities cracked down several times, and the market was closed for a long time in between, and it was not until not long ago that it reopened.

But this opening, something happened.

Half past two in the morning.

Five embarrassed college students hid in front of the No. 44 convenience store on the corner of Xiyuan Road, and the white light in front of the store shone on their faces, making them look even paler.

"Hua Chen is dead, really dead!

That New Year's painting will eat people. ”

After a short break, a girl with a black schoolbag couldn't help but cry. She was scared to the limit, but when she cried, she still suppressed her voice, as if she was afraid of attracting something.

All five of them were students from the archaeology department of Jinghai University next door.

Three days ago, I heard the news of the antique trading market on Xiyuan Road from the professor, so I was curious to come and have a look.

But something happened at this look.

One of them, Hua Chen, found an old object in front of a stall, which was a New Year's painting carved out of a stone slab. Based on the historical level of several people, the authenticity of the object can be judged at once. After confirming that it was genuine, several students teamed up to buy the slate New Year painting from the vendor.

At first, a few people were very happy, thinking that this leak would make them a small profit.

But no one expected that this would be the beginning of the nightmare.

On the first night after buying the New Year's paintings, there was one less person among them. The big living person is like evaporating, and suddenly it is gone.

After that, several people began to search, and then they saw a scene that they will never forget.

The 'New Year's painting' that was brought back by them was 'eaten' in front of them. The sound of chewing still echoes in their heads, and they don't even dare to go back to school.

"I'll go back at dawn, no, I'm going abroad! I don't believe that the can be chased after the country. ”

"Don't be delusional, haven't you looked at the time? It's been a few hours, and there is no sign of any brightening, and this old street, we haven't run out for so long, we've been walking around this place, and we can't get out at all. ”

A burly boy couldn't help but roar under the influence of fear and crying.

The boy's name is Wang Kun, and he is a good friend of Brilliance.

He was supposed to come over to play with his girlfriend tonight, but he didn't expect the ambiguous emotions to develop in place, and his girlfriend was lost. The first person to 'eat' the New Year's painting was his girlfriend.

"Don't make any noise, be careful to lure that monster over."

The argument was interrupted by another bespectacled boy, Guan Peng, a senior in the history department who had organized the event with Mr. Brilliance. The previous mural was also the first he discovered, but he never expected to encounter such a thing. TV and the monsters that will only be encountered inside, let them bump into it.

Looking back now, the professor who mentioned the antique trading market on Xiyuan Road also specifically told them not to come at night. It's a pity that he didn't listen at all at that time.

"Fear and anger can't solve the problem, we have to find a way to live!"

Guan Peng looked at Wang Kun, a sports student, his physical strength is the best among these people, if he makes a mess, everyone will definitely finish playing together.

Fortunately, Wang Kun is not stupid, he still knows more or less about the scenes in horror movies, and just now he was just an explosion of fear to the limit, and now he has calmed down.

"With so many of us missing together, the school will definitely not sit idly by. As long as they report to the state, we are saved. ”

"Not bad! Just because we can't solve it doesn't mean that the country can't solve it. Another girl spoke.

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone's mood was finally stabilized.

This is trust in the state.

"What we need to do now is to collect as many useful clues as possible, and when the people from the country come, we can submit the clues."

As he spoke, Guan Peng quickly took out his mobile phone from his backpack.

"What are you doing?"

Tang Jingjing looked at Guan Peng's movements and asked puzzledly.

The place where a few people stood was the only place with light nearby, but it was a pity that the convenience store was closed, otherwise they would have run in for help. People who dare to open a convenience store in such a place must know some clues that outsiders do not know, and maybe it is a chance to live.

"I was looking for my phone, and I took a picture of the 'New Year's picture' before, and I was going to ask the professor when I went back to school. Now find it out first, and when the people from the country come, you can also hand over this clue to them. ”

"Huh!?"

As soon as these words came out, a few people next to him who had just relaxed became nervous again.

"Found it."

While speaking, Guan Peng took out his mobile phone and flipped to the page where he took pictures before.

The strange thing is that the 'New Year's paintings' photos he took before disappeared at some point, and instead they bought tickets when they entered the park.

There is a real-name list for group tickets. The first person to buy in the group was Jiang Xin, that is, Wang Kun's girlfriend. The second is Hua Chen, the senior who was eaten by the New Year's Picture Monster in front of them. Now, the first two names have turned off-white.

This off-white color is the same as the color of the disconnection in the game. Seeing this picture, Guan Peng's expression suddenly became ugly.

Kill list?

Why did the photo of 'New Year's painting' become this. When he escaped before, his mobile phone was always in his bag, and it was impossible for anyone to touch it, not to mention that Guan Peng also set a lock screen password.

"What's wrong?"

Sensing Guan Peng's face, Tang Jingjing, who was closest to him, immediately stretched out his head.

At first glance, her face changed.

Because the third name is none other than her!

"Aren't you looking for New Year's photos? Why did you turn the bill out. Tang Jingjing said in a trembling voice. She still had one last shred of luck in her heart, hoping that the guess was wrong.

"I've never taken a ticket, and this photo was the New Year's painting before."

Guan Peng's hand was tightly squeezing the phone, and it could be seen from the green tendons on the back of his hand that his heart was not calm now.

Kada......

Just when several people were panicking, the door of the convenience store behind them suddenly opened.

A young man in a peaked cap poked his head out of the store, probably he didn't expect customers to be outside so early, and he was slightly stunned for a moment before he spoke.

"Welcome."

A few people who were panicking saw a living person appear, and immediately rushed into the convenience store as if they had grasped a life-saving straw.

The young man thought that he had met a zero-yuan purchase, and he was so frightened that he retreated again and again.
