11 Quiet Neighborhood (3)
The eerie streets, once again, have returned to calm.
There was no light on in Room 4, and Yan Yueming looked over with a telescope and didn't find any figures. In the half-open window, only the gauze curtains flickered.
Yan Yueming didn't dare to look at it more, he was afraid that he would be discovered, and then he would also eat a bullet. The other party had a gun, and all he had was a monocular.
However, just when Yan Yueming withdrew his gaze, he found a clue on the asphalt road.
There was blood on the ground.
This seemed normal, as the man was injured and blood was dripping all the way from Gate 5 to the car. But the drop of blood that Yan Yueming saw was not in the right position, it deviated from the normal track and appeared at the lower side of the rear compartment where the car was parked just now.
When she saw it, Yan Yueming chuckled in her heart. His gaze immediately moved back, and he followed the direction he came, and finally found the second drop of blood dozens of meters away.
It wasn't the man's blood, it was dripping from the back compartment of that red sedan.
What's in the rear compartment?
Yan Yueming's heart was beating like a drum, what would have happened if he had answered and hooked up with a man just now? In the back compartment of an ordinary family of three, will there be blood dripping out?
Could it be chicken blood? Pig blood?
Yan Yueming was now more and more sure that this house with access instructions was safe, even if it had a few strange rules.
Senior Li is right, he can't run around, running around will only die faster. The ragged whisperer just now didn't know what was going on after entering the 11th, and there was no movement for a long time.
Did something happen to him too?
Yan Yueming didn't dare to think about it. He decided to take care of it, and never go out from the 9th as a last resort.
The time blinked to 8:00 in the morning, and Yan Yueming only drank a little water from this house during this period. The water was supposed to be safe, he washed his face and drank it again, and there was no abnormal reaction for the time being.
Just drinking water, it is easy to go to the toilet, and when a person can only sit in the sleepy city, the most basic physiological needs will be particularly strong. Yan Yueming was afraid of the red water cup and mirror in the toilet, and held it for a while before going in.
He was careful and careful during the whole process, but fortunately nothing happened and he passed it safely.
He couldn't help but feel bitter, thinking that he would be born and cooked again, and when he went in for the third time, he would definitely be much calmer. But when he returned to the living room and saw the extra things in the living room, the idea was gone.
I saw that the living room was close to the storage room, and there was an extra circle of handrails. Where the handrail is circled is a spiral staircase that descends.
γNo. 9 Entry and Exit Instructionsγ
1: The house has only two floors, no basement, no attic.
Help me.
The basement appeared.
At the same time, Xiangshan North Road.
Que Ge drove Li Zheng's motorcycle in a hurry, saw the road sign, and stopped with a sudden brake. The long legs touched the ground, lifted the wind shield on the helmet, and looked at the search and rescue team members on the side of the road.
When a young search and rescue team member saw her, he was about to open his mouth to persuade her to leave, but he was stopped by the master who led the team, "That's the people from Huayuan Road, not ordinary people." β
The young team members felt that the name seemed familiar, "Garden Road? β
Confused, his master had already stepped forward and greeted the other party familiarly, "Why is it alone?" β
Que Ge's expression was serious, in the cold wind of the early spring morning, the dimples on his cheeks seemed to be blown out by the cold wind, "My junior brother fell into the gap, and Senior Li has already gone in to find it." What about Team Yan? Is there any news from his side? β
The other party's tone was slightly deep, "It's been a few hours since I went in, and no one has come back." Boss Li should have joined the search and rescue team first, and went in to save people together, the odds of winning are greater, one person is too dangerous. β
Que Ge was categorical, "That's too slow." Deputy Feng, you know, time is life. If you get lost in it for a long time, even if you get rescued, it will have some terrible consequences. β
Feng Yuanhua, the deputy captain of the first team of the Search and Rescue Department, his newly recruited little apprentice is called Lian Shan.
Deputy Feng was silent for two seconds and said, "Where did he get in from?" β
Que Ge: "The entrance and exit of the gap are very unstable, and the Pu Box Lane has been closed, so we found a spot nearby." In the North River Road Plaza. What about this side? Are there many people who fall into it? β
Deputy Feng beckoned to the little apprentice Lian Shan, and called up a surveillance video from the tablet he carried with him to show her, "Although we have acted as soon as possible, there are still mistakes that have entered." Look at this little red car. β
Que Ge frowned, "At one o'clock in the morning, a family of three came back from outside the city?" β
Deputy Feng: "I went to check the license plate number, and then checked the owner of the car, and found that he was a wanted criminal." β
Hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed in Que Ge's eyes, "Wanted? β
Deputy Feng nodded, "That's right." He killed someone, the police next door just issued a wanted warrant, and it was indeed his wife and daughter in the car, presumably busy running away, so he didn't notice the gas phase forecast. The most important thing is that such a person will make the situation worse if he breaks into the cracks. β
Que Ge's mood was also a little bad.
Li Zheng had already entered, and now that the communication was cut off, she had no way to inform him anymore. However, Que Ge has always had a blind trust in her Senior Li, so while worried, he also remembered the right thing.
"I'm here for something else, Deputy Feng. Please dispatch someone immediately and come with me. β
Gap, House 9.
In order not to let herself get close to the stairs leading to the basement, Yan Yueming simply hid on the second floor. There is a study on the 2nd floor, and the rules don't say that there are any prohibitions in the study, so he thought about it and came here, because this is the place with the most text information, and there may be some unexpected discoveries.
When he first entered the house, he only poked through the doors of each room on the second floor, and did not really conduct a carpet search, so he did not touch anything in the study.
This room is not large, except for two large bookcases side by side on the south wall, plus a set of desks and chairs and a chest of drawers, and that's all. The windows in the room are also very small, and when you open the window, you can see the small river and woods outside.
Yan Yueming didn't open the window, her eyes swept over the rows of books on the shelves, but she didn't stretch out her hand to take the books. Because the impact of words on people is huge, it will imperceptibly affect you, and even brainwash you.
This is a gap, a place of world consciousness, and the books here are normal books or cults?
At a glance, the titles on the spine looked normal, and he even saw the familiar "New World Book". But what Yan Yueming wanted to see was not like this, he wanted to find out if there was anything about this house and this street.
Preferably something handwritten.
It's a pity that he still got nothing.
After hesitating in the study for a while, Yan Yueming finally moved to the master's bedroom. This bedroom is the largest in the whole house, with two windows, one looking out onto the next door No. 11, with the window open; A floor-to-ceiling window opens onto a balcony with geraniums.
In the bedroom, the owner's pajamas are still hanging on the coat rack, and there is an unlit scented candle at the head of the bed.
Yan Yueming did not move the things in the house at will as usual, and avoided the window facing No. 11, so as not to be discovered by the homeless man. Soon he stood in front of the glass door leading to the balcony and subconsciously picked up the telescope to scout.
The higher the position, the different the field of vision, and perhaps something else to discover.
Opposite are numbers 10 and 8.
There were no lights on the 10th, the doors and windows were closed, and the curtains were drawn. No. 8 was lit up, and from the outside it looked similar to No. 9, but just as Yan Yueming set his eyes on a room on the second floor of No. 8, the ghost paintings on the walls broke into his sight.
It was something drawn on the white wall with a thick black marker, and it was so messy and weird that it was impossible to tell whether it was a text or a pattern.
The moment she saw them, Yan Yueming's mind "buzzed", and she quickly moved the telescope away, but it was this action that caused those ghost talismans to be dragged out of the afterimage, as if they had come to life and began to dance wildly.
Yan Yueming's face turned pale, and the whole person staggered back and squatted directly on the ground. At this moment, his feet were soft, his scalp was numb, and his palms were cold.
He crouched, his eyes just under the bed.
There was a strange mirror at the bottom of the bed, and the mirror reflected his pale face, and it also reflected that there seemed to be something behind him, and at the moment he saw it, the familiar feeling of a thorn in his back came again.
It's like an invisible hand that climbs up to your back and gradually touches the back of your neck. The touch was cold and sticky, making you shiver and a nausea from the depths of your soul, as if the hand was going to reach into your brain and dig out your brain, and you could even feel the fingernails on that hand.
Yan Yueming shuddered and hurriedly closed her eyes, not knowing what to do.
If he turns around and runs away, he's bound to bump into that thing, is that a phase? Maybe; If he had gone forward, wouldn't he have to crawl under the bed?
He wanted someone to come to his rescue, but in this eerie neighborhood, there were only gunshots and ghost drawings all over the walls.
He wants to work hard, but it's really hard.
In the midst of sour tears, he finally moved, stretched out the hand holding the telescope, and knelt on the ground, struggling to reach the mirror under the bed. He didn't dare to look, so he closed his eyes, took the telescope and waved it back and forth under the bed, waving it several times, and finally the mirror holder was knocked down.
"Smack." The sound of the mirror falling to the ground came, Yan Yueming took a deep breath, slowly withdrew from under the bed, and then relied on the memory of walking in from the outside, and returned the same way.
You can, Ming.
Yan Yueming cheered herself up and walked out, ignoring what changes were going on around her, ignoring it as written in the entry and exit instructions, and just walking out.
Finally, he walked out of the room, and nothing happened, and the feeling of a thorn in his back finally dissipated.
He leaned his back against the wall, had a feeling of leaning, opened his eyes, and looked at his watch.
It's 8:46 a.m., and he's been in the gap for more than six hours, and he doesn't know how long he's going to be here. But it wasn't all for nothing just now, Yan Yueming wiped the sweat on her head, spread out her palms, and revealed a ball of paper that she accidentally touched when she waved the mirror under the bed just now.
Spread out the paper and write a few words on it:
γMarking the doorway, follow it.γ If you don't know what it means, the answer is in the mirror.
Use a red water cup to splash water on the mirror in the toilet on the first floor. γ
The handwriting is beautiful, it looks new from the ink to the paper, and it is not Li Zheng's handwriting.
