The person who was alone in the back felt very uncomfortable and timidly looked back behind him again and again.

Su Mengfan stood in the car facing the man, he was sure that there was nothing terrible behind the man, but he himself seemed to be infected, and unconsciously turned his shoulder to glance at it.

This fear often followed him, and it was familiar to not only him, but every lonely traveler. They even gave it a name, "tunnel phobia".

It means that when you walk alone in a tunnel, especially if your flashlight is not good, you will feel that the danger is behind you.

Sometimes it's so real that it's as if someone is staring straight at the back of your neck – or not just at ...... You just feel like there's someone or something behind you......

Sometimes you can't stand it, and you immediately turn the flashlight and plunge the light into the darkness – and find it empty...... Quiescence...... Void...... Everything is calm.

And as soon as you turn your head again, facing the darkness like a blind man, that chilling sensation creeps up your spine again.

Is there anyone in the back, is someone sneaking up on you while you're looking elsewhere...... Repeatedly......

The most important thing at this time is not to lose control, not to succumb to fear, to tell yourself that everything is rubbish and that there is nothing to be afraid of, so that you can overcome the illusions......

But it's hard to control yourself – especially when you're walking alone.

People lose their minds and even can't calm down when they reach a manned base.

It would take them a while to come to their senses, but they wouldn't be able to force themselves into the tunnel again — or they would be more seriously wary of the feeling that subway residents are familiar with, and it could turn into a vicious paranoia.

"Don't be afraid—I'm watching!" Su Mengfan shouted at the person behind him. The man nodded, but after a few minutes, he couldn't help but look back. Don't look? It's too hard......

"I know a guy who is standing in Sairoji, and he's almost the same, he's a little crazy," Zhenya said quietly, knowing what Su Mengfan was talking about.

"To be honest, he has a very serious cause. He wanted to go through the tunnel at Sukharev Station - remember what I told you? I want to go where I shouldn't be alone.

Well, this guy is actually alive. Do you know why he's still alive? Zhenya smirked.

"Because he didn't have the guts to walk 100 meters. He was still very brave and decisive when he set out.

Ha...... He was back in 20 minutes—eyes wide, hair standing on end, unable to utter a word.

They couldn't ask anything either—from then on, he didn't speak in any coherent way, often humming like an animal. Refused to set foot in the tunnel for half a step - just stayed at Sukharev station.

He's a country white now. Silly. This story is educational, isn't it? ”

"Yes......" Su Mengfan said vaguely.

The team moved silently, and he noticed some strange sounds coming from the tunnel in front of them.

The sound was barely audible at first, between audible and ultrasound, slowly and subtly intensifying, so you can't tell when you started hearing it.

It reminded him of whistles – mysterious and seemingly non-human.

Su Mengfan glanced at the others quickly, and they were all moving silently and rhythmically.

The commander had stopped talking to Cage, Zhenya was thinking about something, and the man at the back of the car looked calmly ahead, stopping his nervous look.

They didn't hear anything, no!

Su Mengfan began to get scared.

The silence of the procession made the sound even more pronounced, and it grew louder and louder—incomprehensible and terrifying.

Su Mengfan stopped working and stood up.

Zhenya looked at him in surprise, and Zhenya didn't have the fear that Su Mengfan was worried about in his eyes.

"What are you doing?" Zhenya asked angrily.

"Are you tired or something? You should have said it first, why did you stop suddenly. ”

"Didn't you hear anything?" Su Mengfan asked in confusion, his tone made Zhenya's face change immediately.

Zhenya listened more carefully and did not stop shaking the handle.

However, the car was moving slower and slower as Su Mengfan still stood with a puzzled expression, catching the mysterious voice.

The commander noticed, turned back and said, "What nerves are you guilty of?" Which of your tendons is wrong! ”

"Didn't you hear anything?" Su Mengfan asked him.

The commander motioned for everyone to stop so that the creaking of wheels and footsteps would not be disturbed.

His hand crept into the barrel of the gun, and he stood motionless, vigilantly, leaning over one ear to listen for the movement of the tunnel.

The strange sound was there.

Su Mengfan could hear it clearly, and the clearer the voice, the more Su Mengfan paid attention to the commander's face, trying to confirm if he had also heard that kind of sound.

However, as the commander's face gradually relaxed, Su Mengfan felt a sense of shame.

After all, he stopped the collective progress for no reason and frightened everyone.

Zhen-ah apparently couldn't hear anything either, despite his try.

So he began to maliciously laugh at Su Mengfan, looked him in the eye and asked, "Hallucination? ”

"Get out!" Su Mengfan roared unexpectedly.

"Are you deaf or what?"

"Hallucination!" Zhenya concluded.

"Shhh Nothing. You just feel like you've heard.

Don't worry, it's all right, Alcohen, come on, keep working, let's go. The commander said softly, de-escalating the situation and taking the lead himself.

Su Mengfan had no choice but to return to his post. He tried earnestly to convince himself that the whisper was just his imagination, just nervous.

He tried to relax, not to think about anything, hoping to throw the sound out of his head along with his restless thoughts.

He tried to stop thinking, but in his empty head, the voice became louder and clearer.

The thought that each step was towards the south made him more powerful, when the strange noise grew so loud that it seemed to fill the entire subway.

Su Mengfan suddenly noticed that Zhenya was working with only one hand, and unconsciously, he was rubbing his ears with the other hand.

"What are you doing?" Su Mengfan asked him quietly.

"I don't know...... They seem to be blocked...... Tickle ......," Zhenya muttered.

"What didn't you hear?" Su Mengfan asked.

The strange sound reached its highest point, and now Su Mengfan understood where the sound came from. It comes from a pipe that is laid along the wall of the tunnel.

It used to be a communication route.

The pipe ruptured, and the black blast made this strange noise, which came from the depths of the pipe.

Su Mengfan tried to figure out why there was no metal wire inside, just empty black.

The commander stopped abruptly and slowly squeezed out a few words, "Guys, we'...... Here...... Let's take a break. I don't feel well. It's like there's something in my head. ”

He staggered to the front of the car, trying to sit on the side and rest, but suddenly fell to the ground like a sandbag.

Zhenya looked at him in confusion, rubbing her hands to her ears and not moving.

Cage continued to walk as if nothing had happened, indifferent to the cries of his companions.

The man at the back sat down on the railroad tracks and began to cry like a baby. The light of the flashlight illuminates the zenith from below, and the scene looks even more terrifying.

Su Mengfan panicked. Apparently he was the only one whose mind was not blinded by the strange sound, but it became so unbearable that it was impossible to think properly.

Su Mengfan covered his ears in despair, and it did work.

Then, as hard as he could, he slapped Zhenya, who was rubbing his ears stupidly, and yelled at him in an attempt to drown out the noise, forgetting that he himself was the only one who could hear:

"Lift the commander up! Lift him into the car! We can't stay here, we can't! We have to get out of here! He picks up the flashlight that has fallen to the ground and goes after Cage, who is moving forward in the darkness like a sleepwalker.

Thankfully, Cage walks slowly.

After a while, Su Mengfan managed to catch up with him and patted him on the shoulder. But Cage kept walking, and they were getting farther and farther away from the others.

Su Mengfan simply blocked in front of him, opened his eyelids, and shone the light of the flashlight directly into Cage's eyes.

Cage began to scream, blink, and shake his head, but in less than a second he regained his senses, opened his eyes, and looked at Su Mengfan in confusion.

Blinded by the light of the flashlight, he could barely see anything, and Su Mengfan had to pull him back to the car.

The commander lay unconscious in the car, and Zhenya still sat next to him with a stupid face.

Settling Cage in the car, Su Mengfan went around the back to find the guy who was sitting on the track crying.

Su Mengfan saw a tortured expression, this feeling was so sharp, he couldn't help but retreat in fear, thinking that he himself might cry at such a bitter face.

"They were all killed...... It's so painful! Su Mengfan recognized his words from the whimper.

Su Mengfan tried to help the man up, but he broke free and roared unexpectedly.

"Stupid pig! Villain! I'm not going anywhere with you, I'm going to stay here!

They're so lonely, so miserable, you still want to get me out of here? It's all your fault! I'm not going anywhere! Let go of me, hear me! ”

At first, Su Mengfan wanted to slap him to sober him up - but he was afraid that the excited guy would retaliate.

So, Su Mengfan bent down and squatted in front of this man, and said softly, "Now, you still want to help them, right?" You want to help them end their pain, right? ”

The man looked at Su Mengfan with tears in his eyes, and whispered with a frightened smile, "Of course...... Of course, I want to help them. ”

"Then you'll have to help. They want you to help me first. Get to the car and stand next to the joystick. You'll have to help me get to base. ”

"They told you to do that?" The man looked at Su Mengfan suspiciously.

"Yes." Su Mengfan replied affirmatively.

"And then, you're going to let me go back to them?"

"I promise you, if you want to come back with them, I'll let you come back." Su Mengfan immediately affirmed, didn't give him more time to think, and pulled him into the car.

He left the man in the car and mechanically obeyed Zhenya, he and Cage controlled the joystick, and the unconscious commander lay in the middle.

At the same time, Su Mengfan occupied the front, pointed a machine gun at the darkness in front of him, and walked forward quickly.

He was surprised that he could hear the car following him.

Su Mengfan felt that he was taking a risk, because the rear was completely defenseless, but he understood that the most important thing now was to leave this ghost place as soon as possible.

There were now three people in control of the joystick, and the group was moving faster than ever. Su Mengfan was relieved to find that the evil voice was subsiding, and his sense of crisis was mostly weakened.

He yelled at his companions to keep them up, and suddenly he heard Zhenya's sober and surprised voice ringing behind him.

"What, are you the commander now?"

Su Mengfan signaled to stop, understanding that they had left the danger zone and returned to the group, leaning on the car and slumping weakly on the ground.

Others gradually regained consciousness. The man in the back also stopped sobbing, wiped his face with his hands, and looked around in confusion.

The commander also began to move, groaning dullly. Moaning and getting up, complaining of headaches.

Half an hour later, we were finally able to continue our departure. Except for Su Mengfan, no one remembers what happened.

"You know, there was a force that pulled me down, and my head was in a state of confusion—and suddenly I was unconscious.

I encountered this situation once, and it was a gas explosion.

But if it's poison gas, it shouldn't be the same effect - no one is immune...... Did you really hear that? yes, that's weird......" the commander thought.

Nikita was roaring...... Hey, Nikita, who the hell are you shouting? He asked the defender.

"The devil knows...... I don't remember. I seem to remember it a minute ago, but now it's all flying out of my head...... It's like having a dream:

You remember everything when you wake up, and after a few minutes you wake up a little bit, and those images are all gone. Just remember a few fragments...... It's all the same.

I remember I was very, very sorry for someone...... But to whom, and why - I don't remember at all. ”

"You want to stay in the tunnel forever. With them. I promised you that I would let you go back if you wanted," Su Mengfan said.

Glancing at Nikita, he said, "Well, you're here, I should let you go back!" He chuckled.

"No, thank you." Nikita muttered unhappily, "I'm going to reconsider ......"

"Alright, guys, we've been around long enough. There's nothing to linger in the tunnels. Let's get to our destination first and then have a good chat. We're going home......"

Why plan to set off on this day—it's all God's will.

"Let's go!" The commander commanded.

"Listen, Alcohen, come and come with me. You are our hero today," he added unexpectedly, and looked at Su Mengfan's eyes with a strange light.
