At the entrance of the street in the distance, there was a vague figure walking towards the street.

Jiang Li's heart was beating fast.

She looked around.

The surrounding pubs and restaurants have long since closed.

The entire street was extremely deserted, and there was no place for Jiang Li.

On the contrary, there are an abnormal number of stalls selling candied haws on the streets of this town.

Jiang Li randomly found a candied haws stall, lowered his body, used the stone statue in the fountain pool as cover, and quickly ran to hide behind the stall.

This candied haws stall is at the back of the street, about twenty meters away from the fountain.

The stalls are made of rough cement, with a low cement wall for hiding.

And there is a small circular hole in the cement wall.

Jiang Li held her breath and squatted behind the stall.

She looked through the small circular hole in the cement wall toward the center of the street.

The sound of the bell came from the street. From the sound, it was still slowly approaching the fountain.

However, while Jiang Li was observing, the "dinging bell" sound mysteriously disappeared in the streets and alleys.

Jiang Li looked through the round hole and confirmed again and again.

I found that the dark shadow that was originally on the street also disappeared.

"What are you looking for?" A mouth of rotten teeth protruded from the back of Jiang Li's neck with a chuckle.

The sound of "ding bells" appeared behind Jiang Li.

Jiang Li's body stiffened.

She slowly twisted her neck and met the face of an old man in a red hat.

It's Santa Claus's costume.

Although he was dressed like Santa Claus, he was ragged and dirty.

Santa Claus put down the red and wet sack on his shoulders and smiled innocently at Jiang Li.

He also followed Jiang Li and squatted behind the stall.

And asked again excitedly with an upward tone.

"Who are you hiding from?"

"Can I join? I'm so nervous..."

Santa Claus was close to Jiang Li, squatting beside Jiang Li.

He also imitated Jiang Li and carefully peeked into the street scene through the round hole.

Santa Claus's black rain boots were right against Jiang Li's calf.

Jiang Li swallowed subconsciously.

Rain boots.

The shoes the old man was wearing...were dirty rain boots.

In the prophecy, the murderer who disemboweled Little Red Riding Hood Zhao Qingqing with a dagger happened to be wearing rain boots.

At the end of that prophetic scene, rain boots covered in black mud left a series of footprints on the path and left the forest.

Jiang Li was squeezed into a corner by the old man and could not move.

She glanced down cautiously.

There is no black mud on these shoes for the time being.

If Santa Claus is the murderer, it means that Zhao Qingqing has not been killed yet and the murderer has not yet found Zhao Qingqing.

But what does this Santa Claus have to do with the red-eyed rabbit?

Jiang Li remembered that it was said in the rules that the murderer was a rabbit with red eyes...

"Why don't you speak? I asked you what you are doing hiding here, who you are hiding from, who you are hiding from!

Why do I feel like you disrespect me?

There is no one outside. Are you lying to me? You lied to me! "

Jiang Li ignored him, and Santa Claus roared out of control.

He hurriedly searched for something on his body, wondering if he was looking for a knife.

Jiang Li wanted to run out, but was blocked by the old man in the corner.

Jiang Li wanted to call the red baby on his shoulder.

Unexpectedly, Hong Ying fell asleep at some point and was already deep in sleep.

No matter how much I call him now, he can't wake up.

Jiang Li clearly remembered that Hongying had just eaten colored ice cream.

Logically speaking, you shouldn't be so sleepy after eating ice cream.

How could Hongying become like this...

Without thinking too much, the Santa Claus in front of him was getting more and more crazy.

Santa Claus grabbed Jiang Li's shoulders and angrily pressed Jiang Li against the low concrete wall.

And something seemed to be growing out of the old man's red hat.

At the critical moment, Jiang Li's hand touched something sticky on the ground.

The familiar smell floated into Jiang Li's nose.

Sweetness…

The sweetness of honey!

Jiang Li immediately picked up the thing on the ground and stuffed it directly into Santa Claus's mouth.

The old man who had eaten the candied haws turned red in the face and became quiet instantly.

The old man's manic mood seemed to be calmed.

The contents of his red hat also shrank back bit by bit.

Jiang Li quickly ran out of the stall and ran further away!

All the candied haws sold on this street are mixed with honey!

Judging from the current situation, honey has a very good effect on resisting pollution.

This is also the reason why there are so many vendors selling candied haws on this street!

These candied haws are the passers-by's only chance to survive.

When Jiang Li passed by those stalls, he picked up a batch of candied haws.

Santa’s bells ring in pursuit.

Continuing forward, there is a moat that isolates the town and the castle.

There is no bridge on the moat. The river is deep and fast, and Jiang Li cannot pass.

To get to the castle, you may need the help of a little soldier to do it.

Before hesitating, Santa Claus had finished eating the candied haws and appeared behind Jiang Li.

"You, wait a minute..." Santa Claus gasped as he ran, "Why are you walking so fast? I haven't given you any gifts yet!"

Santa Claus put down the large sack dripping with red liquid on his shoulder, and half of his body got into the sack, not knowing what he was looking for.

Just when Jiang Li was planning to get another bunch of candied haws on a stick to delay some time.

The door of the small house on the right with the lanterns hanging on it opened with a creak.

Inside the crack of the door, a kind old lady wearing a hat and apron poked her head out.

The old lady waved to Jiang Li, "Good boy, come in quickly!"

It's not safe outside.

But there may be dangers inside the house!

Just when Jiang Li was about to refuse——

Under the crack of the door, the little soldier's head also poked out.

"Witch, come in quickly! It's dangerous outside, come in and hide!"

Santa Claus was still messing around inside the bloody sack.

He seemed to be caught by something inside and was struggling fiercely.

Jiang Li originally planned to choose neither side and run towards the other end of the town street.

But unexpectedly, I found that the originally clear night sky was filled with fog.

The fog came from the direction of the forest and was spreading from the end of the street at the other end of the town.

Can't enter the foggy area!

Even if Jiang Li had fog lights, it would be useless!

The presence of fog lights will only reveal your location to Santa Claus.

Dilemma, what to do...

The fog is still spreading.

The fight between Santa Claus and the thing in the sack was coming to an end, and it was clear that Santa Claus had the upper hand.

Jiang Li raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the old lady in the hut on the right.

This is the only choice!

Jiang Li moved towards the hut.

If you will die if you enter the old lady's house, it only means that this copy will die.

But there is no certain death, so the old lady's cabin is safe!

Jiang Li quickened his pace and ran towards the hut.

But just one or two meters away from the door——

The clock inside the glass window of the hut caught Jiang Li's attention.

Jiang Li glanced at the clock strangely and paused as he walked towards the hut.
