The two returned to the mayor's office building and stayed there overnight until the bus returned to town the next morning.

"Did something happen last night?" Shen Yi found traces of fights on the street.

Lin Pei briefly talked about the before and after the doll attracted the xenomorphs, and said, "The risk is very high. ”

"If that's the case, I'd rather go hungry than face xenomorphs." Shen Xin shook his head and said.

"Hunger is not the way, sooner or later you have to face different species, the sooner you start, the better." Xu said.

"Do you really have to try every puzzle?" Shen Yi looked left and right.

"I think he has a point." Gu Yu said: "The longer the time drags on, the less physical strength we have, and the higher the risk will be at that time." ”

"Do you have any good ideas?" Wu Qiuyi asked.

"One person goes to answer the question, the others are ambushed next to it, and if a xenomorph comes out, kill it." Gu Yu was the first to say.

"But in the process of fighting, it is inevitable to make a louder noise," Shen Yi said, "What if other xenos are brought in?" ”

"Xenos may be distributed in various areas of this town," Lin Pei said after thinking about it, "The game says that the town only employs a few security guards, let's count it as nine, if only we could find their hiding places one by one." ”

"It's just that there is a rule in the game, three people are not allowed to appear in any public place at the same time, which is difficult to distinguish, but to lure out the aliens and then follow them to find the ground cage, the number of people is not enough to be difficult to perform."

"It's also a question of what to use to seal the entrances and exits."

Shen Yi twisted his eyebrows and said, "To be strong enough to block xenos, and to be quiet, is this possible?" ”

"Let's start searching the whole town next to each other today." Wu Qiuyi said: "Every time, the two of them take turns to get out of the car to find it." ”

"How many days does it take to find such a big town?" Gu Yu objected: "If we can't find it in the end, aren't we wasting our time in vain?" According to my method, it is better to lure the xenos out first, and lead them to a place where it is not easy to make noise and kill, I think the woods outside the town are fine. ”

"Your plan won't work." Lin Pei said: "You don't make more noise, but the xenomorphs are uncontrollable, and it is very likely that passing through the town will lure out other xenos, if there is more than one xenomorph that has appeared at the East Gate, no matter how many of us are, it will be in vain." ”

Gu Yu was silent, and after a few seconds, he said, "Then what do you say?" ”

"The first thing to do is to find something that can block the ground cage." Xu Xu said at this time, "The kind of metal used to build the wall in the town, there may be leftover in the town, maybe all the infrastructure in the town also uses this kind of metal, leave two people to drive, and the others go to find it separately." ”

As he spoke, he took out the picture book and crayons he had brought out of the mayor's office, and sketched a rough picture of the town.

"Seven people, each going in seven directions."

"Any store, gas station, mayor's office, clinic, street, these are all public places, but if the game refers to public places that can overlap, it means that all of us can enter different stores at the same time."

"There are traces of people in every place in town, in every shop, and if you count the neighborhood as a public place, it is not enough for so many people to be different, and I tend to divide the streets into areas, but there are no obvious landmarks."

"The best way to avoid these risks is to divide our actions into time slots."

"Limit the time, limit the place of activity, avoid three people at the same time in a place that may be in public."

Wu Qiuyi looked at the scattered houses scattered throughout the town that he had drawn, and said, "You can follow the time when the bus travels." ”

"Houses are not considered public areas, and this option works." Lin Pei said: "Whether it can be done or not, let's look for it again first." ”

Several people set a place to go and a time to get off the bus, as well as a time limit for walking around the common area.

"The bus has to be refueled once a day, and there must be at least two people on board." Wu Qiuyi looked at Nian Hongan and Wang Chaoqing, and he was not at ease whether he let them get out of the car or stay in the car.

"Nian Hongan stayed in the car." Xu Xu's eyes swirled around the faces of the two.

Nian Hongan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but Wang Chaoqing said with a smile: "Brother, why don't I stay in the car, you see that my characteristics are useless at all, what if I cause trouble for you?" ”

"If you get into trouble, you'll be the first to die." Xu Shu said lightly: "For the sake of your own life, come on." ”

Fifteen minutes later, Wang Chaoqing was the first to get out of the car with a sad face.

followed by Wu Qiuyi and Gu Yu, followed by Shen Yi's brothers and sisters, and finally Lin Pei and Xu Xu.

Most of the houses in the town are small buildings, and few households are side by side, so the activity time in each residence is 20 minutes, and after 20 minutes, starting with the first person to get off the bus, the two people have five minutes to enter the common area at a time, and then look for a shop after looking for a house.

After Xu Xu finished searching the first small building, he waited for fifteen minutes before entering the next one.

After looking for three or four places to live in a row, his feeling became more and more strange.

Although there are traces of people living in these places, probably because they are in a hurry to relocate, most of the daily necessities such as clothes and beds in the house have been retained, but all houses have a common feature, that is, the living atmosphere is not strong.

Simple kitchen, simple bathroom, in addition to the basic necessities, such as bookshelves, utility room, almost nothing is placed, and there is no trace of children.

Every piece of the house is exceptionally clean.

He was about to go to the next place, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a small building with a reflective spot on the roof, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be a clock, and there was a reflective crystal on the second hand of the clock, which was the same as the clock on the mayor's office.

His mind moved slightly, and he went straight to the building.

Crossing the street, he pushed open the heavy door and entered, and the first thing he saw was a wall full of clocks, but they were broken, and the hands stopped in different places.

There is also a picture in the middle of the wall, in which is an old man and a tightly wrapped little girl, the old man looks serious and holds the child with half-squinted eyes, his eyes are not looking in the direction of the camera, but to the side, both of them seem to be out of shape.

The old man in the photo is the one he saw in the watch shop yesterday.

Stepping on the thick carpet, Xu Xu walked all the way to the second floor and barely made a sound, pushing open the first room, which was supposed to be the bedroom of Master Nisse, and almost everything was also moved, except for some photos and children's graffiti paintings pasted on the walls.

Unlike the photos downstairs, the protagonists in these photos are smiling brightly, and in addition to Nisse and the little girl, there is also a young couple, and the man looks like Nisse.

"Death Certificate: Verified by the stellar authority Five Star Pharmaceutical Research Group, Logan Nisse and Jasmine Ye died in a car accident, and it is hereby proved."
