Toilet.

Dean picked up the wet woman from the sink and laid her flat on the cold ground, knelt on her right and shouted a few times.

"Catherine!"

Her eyes closed palely, and she didn't respond in the slightest physical response.

Dean probed the carotid artery on the side of her neck with his fingers again, but there was no heartbeat, so he pressed his hands on the middle and lower part of her chest and began to press regularly on the chest, once, twice, three times... Her face was still pale and bloodless.

"What's wrong with her?" At this time, Hope and Owen followed, looking at the situation in front of them in shock, "Can you have an accident in the last bathroom?" ”

"Shut up!" Dean finished a set of thirty compressions, opened her airway and began artificial breathing, "Come over here and help!" ”

Owen and Hope immediately assisted Dean in his race against time.

Exactly five minutes passed.

Under the high-intensity first aid, Catherine's face finally became rosy, and at the same time, her heartbeat and spontaneous breathing were restored.

But before Dean could breathe a sigh of relief, she noticed that a thin wisp of black smoke drilled out of her newly rejuvenated body, lingering, turning into a pitch-black chain, slowly pulling out her translucent soul.

"What are you seeing?"

Hope and Owen noticed Dean's solemn expression and followed his line of sight, but they only saw a pile of toiletries, and they couldn't see anything unusual at all.

"The situation is a little wrong, you guys go first!"

Dean warned, tensed his limbs, summoned the ghost armor to wrap his body, took out the teardrop-shaped board from his arms with his right hand, and grabbed the M1900 from the fantasy space with his left hand, loaded it, and activated the spirit bullet mode.

On the other side of the muzzle, a large black mist as thick as blood had condensed into a monster with a sheep's head and a human body.

With its crooked horns reaching to the ceiling, its huge black cloak covering its wings, its hooves trampling on the cold marble floor, and its two-meter-tall strong body standing behind Catherine's soul, its green eyes like ghostly fire, exuding a kind of indifference at the top of the food chain.

Its tapered nails and six-fingered hands clutched a pitch-black chain, one end of which was connected to Catherine's soul, pulling her outward, half of her soul already being pulled out of her body.

Her face was still beautiful, but her expression was hollow and dull, like a desperate and numb captive.

"Get out of here, goatman, leave her behind!"

Dean pulled the trigger.

Bang, bang!

Blood meets spiritual power!

The end-to-end spirit and tracking bullets roared and slammed into the center of the massive sheep's head, but did not defeat it like a normal ghost.

A transparent barrier appeared on its surface to hold the warhead in place, and the two supernatural forces consumed each other, causing ripples like waves in midair.

The goatman coldly continued to tug at the chains, as if mocking Dean's indiscretion.

Dean angrily threw out his right hand, and this time the board drew a straight line, penetrating the protective barrier with great smoothness, stabbing the heart of the goat man, and infusing it with an indestructible mystical power.

The goatman tugged at the chains.

Brush Brush Brush –

It fluttered like a butterfly, slashing out staggered silver light in mid-air, cutting through the huge black body at high speed, bursting out of black gas, and its originally condensed body became illusory as if it had been hit hard.

Dean took the opportunity to use his telekinesis to pull the end of the chain and pull Catherine's soul towards her body on the ground, wanting her soul to return.

This action completely enraged the goatman, and its green eyes radiated an angry light, and it opened its bloody mouth to let out a piercing howl like a night owl, and at the same time raised a huge demonic wing and flapped it outward.

Roar!

The wind blew Dean's big black trench coat like dragon wings, and Hope and Owen behind him were swept out of the bathroom by the invisible force without resistance, slamming into the wall of the corridor and sliding, blood dripping from his mouth and nose.

And Dean unloaded all the impact with his strong willpower and physique, shook his head slightly, and strode forward, the M1900 in his right hand kept pulling the trigger, shooting out a series of spirit bullets with abundant spiritual power, and the spirit bullets flowed to form a fluorescent barrage, shooting the goatman's chest and neck full of holes, and his body became more and more illusory.

Dean pushed forward with his left hand at the same time, and the surging telekinesis swept through the bathroom like a wave, the mirrors of the sink, the windows on the wall all exploded, the glass slag flew all over the sky, the floor and ceiling cracked one after another, and the goatman was like being hit head-on by a train, and his huge body rose into the air and hung directly on the wall, turning into a dried monster specimen.

Dean rolled up the board and was about to deliver the fatal blow.

But behind the goatman, a pair of huge black wings suddenly swelled out like springs to the sides, shaking off a large area of rich black like a mire, obscuring the light of the entire room.

The bathroom became invisible, making Dean feel as if he was in the starry night sky, lost his way and his goal.

Suddenly there was a dangerous green light in the darkness.

Dean couldn't help but look at the green light, and was shocked to see a whirlpool so large that it took over all the sight, spreading intoxicating magic outward.

With just a glance, Dean's spirit, thoughts, emotions, and all the intangible qualities were uncontrollably attracted by the whirlpool.

The light, the sound, the breeze, everything outside is getting farther and farther away.

Dean's tense nerves relaxed, his expression became trance-like, and the M1900 in his hand hung down involuntarily.

And the goatman, whose eyes shone like light bulbs, took the opportunity to pull Catherine's soul to his side with a sharp tug.

Immediately, a crack opened behind it, slowly swallowing the two of them inside.

A few seconds later.

Dean bit the tip of his tongue sharply, and the blood and tingling pain made him come to his senses, and his eyes widened, and half of an ugly sheep's face was reflected in his eyes, and with a silent mockery, it disappeared into the cracks in the space that shone through the green light.

Shet!

Dean angrily threw a shot there, but the bullet only hit the smooth wall!

"Dean! What the hell just happened? Hope, with his gun in hand, walked in trembling, with comical blood on his nose, and Owen looked at the mess with fear and excitement, "Something invisible has attacked us!" Is it a goatman? ”

"There's no time to explain!" Dean turned his head, and the volcanic anger in his eyes made the two of them shut their mouths in horror. "Where do the goatmen go after they take their souls?"

"It's going to be back on the edge of the Hell." Owen recalls the contents of the antique book.

"Yes, Hell, I hit that monster with a tracking bullet, as long as I chase it, I can find it, deal with it, and save Catherine!" Dean muttered to himself, glancing at one of the abilities in the system - "Thin Hell Shuttle lv0" (100% charged, can be activated at any time, please make sure that the board is in control.) ）

Dean took a deep breath.

A woman was snatched away under her nose, if she can't be taken back, what kind of man is she, what use is this superpower!

The surging anger suppressed all scruples, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes,

"Hope, take care of me and Catherine's bodies."

"What do you mean, where are you going? Can you explain it first? The sheriff tugged at his shoulders uneasily, and saw him put his hands together and hold a board engraved with a mysterious rune high above his head.

The tip of the plank was aligned with the space in front of him, and Dean slowly drew a straight line from top to bottom.

It was an ordinary move, but he did it very hard and painfully, his cheeks were red, hot sweat broke out, and his shoulders began to tremble uncontrollably, as if his hands weighed several tons, as if this stroke contained the great power of connecting heaven and earth.

Then Hope and Owen, who were watching, held their breath -

The board eerily drew a pitch-black slit in the air perpendicular to the ground and about two meters high.

Dean pressed the gap with both hands, pulled the curtains to the sides, and the narrow gap instantly expanded into a triangular gate radiating a faint green light, and behind the door, you could clearly see the tunnel supported by the leaves of the trees and the huge rhizomes.

Dean slumped into the tunnel, but as he stepped in.

His soul and body were immediately separated, and his body lost control, and he collapsed outside the triangular door, on the hard floor of the bathroom, and passed out.

"This is the out-of-body state?"

Dean looked his hands left and right, touched his body, the touch was almost exactly the same as the real state, and he was wearing the big black trench coat, his sense of smell and vision were no different, and he could even smell the earthy smell in the air and the fragrance of plants.

But the difference was that he felt a lightness and pleasure that he had never experienced in his carnal state, and his body was light, as if he had drunk until he was slightly drunk and had been overdosed.

He left all his psychological burden behind and became unrestrained and free.

All kinds of desires came up in his head, and he seemed to become omnipotent, he could go anywhere he wanted, and he could do anything he wanted.

He couldn't help but grin happily at the corner of his mouth.

"Nope! No! ”

He shook his head violently, suppressing the thoughts.

"Now is not the time to satisfy desires!" Dean turned his head to look at the shadow of the past behind him who looked exactly like himself, "Let's go, old man, let's go deal with the goatman together!" ”

"As you wish."

The two Deans made their way down the tunnel, one after the other.

……

Owen looked at Dean and Catherine lying outside the triangular door, their chests were rising and falling slightly, their breathing and heartbeat were normal, but they were only shells, and they had no souls.

"Unbelievable, opening the passage of the legendary Soul Thin Hell, great power. Director Hope, this friend of yours must be an incredibly powerful exorcist. ”

Hope just stared at the tunnel in a daze, his face changed, and his eyes flashed with deep longing,

"Soul Prison... Sarah was also there, and Sarah was waiting for me inside. ”

He couldn't help but approach the passage step by step,

"Wait, sheriff, what do you want to do?"

"How can I let my brother go on an adventure alone?" Hope pushed him away with a serious face, "He needs help, I have to go in, Owen, you stay and take care of our bodies." ”

"Fako! Listen to me, you're just an ordinary person, and there's another dangerous space in there, and you don't even know how you're going to die if you have to break in! Owen anxiously advised,

"Don't worry, I can handle it!" Hope strode into the tunnel without looking back, and his fat body instantly sat on Dean's chest.

As he entered, the originally open triangular door suddenly closed its curtain inward, turning back into an inconspicuous black straight line, waiting to be opened.

And Owen looked at the three living bodies in front of him, lifting the glasses on the bridge of his nose and falling into a sluggish state.

"Trust me so much?"

……

On the other side, Becky's house.

Jane, who was sitting cross-legged on the carpet in the living room, suddenly took off her blindfold, and her little face with a little bit of baby fat showed a trace of vivid distress and unwillingness.

"Where does the triangular door lead? Why can't I see it. ”

"No, Dean and Hope are definitely in danger!" She got up and waved her little fist, her childish face showed a touch of determination, and her eyes turned to Tai Rui, who was staring blankly at the cartoon in the rocking chair, "Mom, something happened to my friend, I have to help them!" ”

Jane reached out and hooked her little finger around Tyree's clumsy and wriggling little finger, "Let's play together when I get back, okay?" ”

Tyrei's dull eyes rolled with difficulty, and she opened her mouth in some anxiety.

"Did you say yes? That's great! ”

Jane touched her mother's hair, straightened her denim bib again, put on her dear cap, covered her slightly long hair, and rushed out of the house with a menacing attitude.

"Aunt Becky, something is wrong! Drive me to Hawkins Middle School, I'm going to save Dean and Hope! ”

……

"It's not for you to take care of my body, why are you keeping up?" Not long after Dean walked out, he heard movement behind him, and then waited for Hope,

"You promised to let me go into the Prison to see Sarah, how could I miss this opportunity." Hope retorted emotionally, apparently also under some special influence, but he turned his gaze to another person beside Dean, "Wait, who is he, why are there two of you?" Do you still have twin brothers? ”

"It doesn't matter," Dean gave Shadow a look, and the latter continued to walk forward, "The important thing is that you will follow my command later, if you act without permission, you will be buried inside, and you will never be able to get out." ”

Hope's eyelids twitched, and he covered his mouth and nodded.

……

The three of them walked along the green tunnel for five minutes, and the light began to brighten, and they walked out of the tunnel and entered a new area, like the heart of a forest—

Dean looked around curiously, there was no sun or moon in the sky of this place, and the light was a little dim, as bright as before the turn of dusk on a cloudy day and before night.

The faint light illuminates the many vine-strewn trees on the ground.

Some of them seem to have grown for hundreds of thousands of years, so thick that they need to be hugged by several people, and they rise into invisible clouds, and the roots that were originally buried in the ground have broken through the soil and come to the ground to form clusters of strangely shaped tree nodules.

Some of the trees are taller than children, and their branches swing playfully in the breeze, as if welcoming newcomers to the woods.

The woodland between the trees is covered with colorful leaves, and there are also shallow puddles of water, which gurgle and bubble outward, and these hot air fills the air to form a surging milky white mist, which sets off the whole forest like a fairyland.

But this is not the place where the living should be.

Dean pulled the board from his bosom and felt a faint instinct point to the location of the tunnel they had entered earlier.

"So the board will remind me of the direction of the passage back to the real world and the remaining duration of the passage. There's still plenty of time to worry about. ”

……

"Dean, what a hell is this?" Hope spread out his hand and waved it in the air, and suddenly felt the seeds and spores of countless plants, just like when he was alive,

"I guess so." Dean frowned, things turned out differently than he expected, and he didn't know if it was because the initial location where they entered the Thin Prison was different from the goatman, and it was too far away for Dean to feel the slightest breath that could track the bullet.

Moreover, the ubiquitous mist in the forest also affected visibility, and Dean could only see a radius of more than thirty meters.

"Try God's Perspective Search."

Dean sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, imagined Catherine's face, identity, and enabled the "Dark Domain of the Mind" to search for her location.

But soon, he reopened his eyes and shook his head helplessly.

This forest seemed to be filled with some kind of strange power, which cut off his perception, and there was no way to find someone, so he could only shake his head unwillingly,

"Let's go, you two, let's find a random direction first."

"East..."Shadow suggested, and Dean realized that the expression on his face became more vivid and flexible than in the real world.

"Why East?"

"There's a familiar smell in the east, and I want to lean over and take a look." Shadow looked pleading at Dean, the first time it revealed subjective emotions.

"Yes, go east!" Hope looked east in a trance, his eyes revealing a strong expectation and yearning,

"Okay, you lead the way." The three of them set out towards the east side of the forest and walked for a while.

There are all the same woods along the way, but there are no squirrels, birds and other small animals that are common in the woods, and there are no other wandering spirits, and it is a little empty and quiet.

Dean could only keep asking how Shadow felt.

As expected, his feelings and thoughts became clearer and more delicate after arriving in the Thin Prison, almost the same as before his death, which confirmed that the Thin Prison did have some kind of buff effect on the spirits.

However, even if "Shadow" regains consciousness, under the rules of the system, it can only obediently obey Dean's instructions.

In addition, he finally came to another dimension, and Dean also tested his various abilities.

The results were pleasantly surprised.

Although there is no physical body in the Thin Prison, there is no way to use physical superpowers such as iron man expertise and mimesis.

However, the Red Dragon Meditation Method, the ability to imagine space, telekinesis, God's perspective, and other spiritual, will, and perception abilities are almost unlimited, and they operate freely.

Dean stretched out his hands, and two seconds later, he took out the love gun M1900 from the space, filled it with twenty rounds of .45acp, activated the spirit bullet mode, and was ready to fire at any time.

"Wait, guns can be found in this place, too?" Hope looked like a ghost and touched his waist, the original gun had long been left in the real world with his body.

"It's a superpower, you can't." Dean put away his gun satisfied, and was able to use the weapons stored in the fantasy space, and he was one more sure that he would kill the goatman.

……

"Why don't you leave?" Dean suddenly felt the footsteps in front of him stop, and when he looked up, he saw "Shadow" looking motionless not far away, and a huge surprise gradually appeared on his face.

Dean followed his gaze, his pupils constricted, and he held his breath—

Between two huge ancient trees shrouded in white mist, a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old was leisurely swinging, wearing a cowboy hat and shawl with long hair fluttering in the wind.

From the side, she has a pair of large, bright eyes, slightly thick lips, somewhat thick eyebrows, and ordinary facial features, which are really not beautiful.

But the smile on the corner of her mouth is like a ray of sunshine in spring, sprinkled in her heart, which makes people can't help but be infected and smile together, forgetting the troubles and anxieties in her heart.

The swing slowed down suddenly.

She seemed to feel a strange gaze, and turned her head to meet the four eyes of Shadow.

For a moment, both ghosts froze, transparent tears sliding down their eyelids.

"Dean?"

"Mona? My Mona! I've finally found you, I've found you! ”
