In the bottomless night, Gu Xing woke up instantly.
Soon, he found that he was completely unable to move, and his body was extremely stiff, as if his soul was contained in a plaster sculpture lying flat.
He could only look directly at the woman with red eyes on half of her face.
Her face exudes a creepy aura, and ordinary humans should be terrified the moment they see her.
Fortunately, Gu Xing can no longer be classified as an ordinary human being. And, just to be on the safe side, he used Rule 4 of Yamagata's weird clone on the way to Silver Valley Town——
[In a short period of time, Gu Xing can become one with Shanpu (in this state, many incredible things will happen)] (D)
Therefore, Gu Xing, who had merged with the Shanpu family, could clearly feel the frightening aura spread by the face in front of him, but the rules behind it had not penetrated the grotesque clone and invaded Gu Xing's consciousness, causing He can maintain enough ability to distinguish whether it is a dream or reality-unfortunately, it is most likely reality.
Holy Son, where is the Holy Son?
For the first time, Gu Xing thought of the Holy Son, and he immediately looked at the Holy Son with his peripheral vision.
At this moment, although he could not move, the peripheral vision of his vision could still cover the place where the Holy Son originally lay - but right there, the Holy Son disappeared without knowing when.
Where did she go? Go to the toilet? Or did he suddenly leave in the middle of the night for other reasons?
Gu Xing tried to call Dong Er.
Dong Er didn't respond, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
He tried to contact the members of the Weird Alliance again, and surprisingly, he could sense their presence at this moment——
Grandma was knitting in a room on the first floor and watching...a black and white version of "The Shining."
The three split-body Fujino, Kita Eijiro, Ogye Daisaku, Kubo Shoichi, and Yosuke were taking a bath in the mixed bathing pool fifty meters away.
Naya and Yingzi were in the female hot spring pool, with bath towels on their heads, no hair on their heads, and their eyes closed to relax.
Haruka Yasui and Haye happily skied in the wilderness outside Silver Valley.
Nobuhiko Kumada was far away in Toto, on the roof of Kishida's apartment, looking up at the moonlight alone.
Gu Xing tried to call out to the weirdos, but he could clearly feel that there was a clear boundary between himself and the weirdos.
His consciousness and calling are always swirling inside this membrane, like a fish constantly hitting the wall in a fish tank.
This also makes him look like a sleeping person in the eyes of the weirdos, trapped in his own nightmare...
This is the second time since Gu Xing became a grotesque describer that he has lost touch and contact with the holes and grotesques.
He still remembered the first time in the Shibuya apartment, when Hong Shi suddenly attacked and she pulled Gu Xing alone into the past time and space.
This can't help but make Gu Xing seriously doubt the level and effectiveness of the so-called grotesque describer. This grotesque describer seems to easily lose contact with the grotesques he describes and contains... I'm afraid it is not as omnipotent as Gu Xing imagined. .
Wait... is it possible that while Gu Xing was sleeping, he really fell into a nightmare?
These thoughts flashed through Gu Xing's mind in an instant.
The woman looked at Gu Xing without saying a word, her eyes without any emotion, as if she was looking at a person who was destined to die. And this gaze is a memorial service held in advance.
Gu Xing thought that she would directly take action to claim her life, but fortunately she did not, and it seemed that she had no such intention, as if she just wanted to look at him quietly.
It doesn't matter even if he does it, he is now integrated with the Shanpu clan's clone, and he is not a normal person at all. As long as the clone cannot be killed, he can live well.
While his mind was still strong and his consciousness was clear enough, Gu Xing began to observe the woman's face.
Of course, the focus is not on her beautiful half of the face, but on the other half of her face full of red eyes——
There are hundreds of red eyes, large and small. When placed on half of the small face, they really look densely packed. Even people without trypophobia can feel suffocated
Breathing and numbness of scalp.
The appearance of each red eye is somewhat similar, except that the outer ring is black outline, the eyeball is white and covered with spiderweb-like bloodshot eyes, and the eyeball is bloody red.
I've seen this face before!
Gu Xing suddenly felt like this.
He began to wonder in his mind where he had seen it.
Perhaps because he woke up in the middle of the night, his mind was not as bright as when he was normally awake.
Those memory fragments stored in my mind that should be available for recall at any time are now like mysterious ghosts, wandering creepily in the fog-shrouded mountain forest.
I must remember.
With this thought in mind, Gu Xing concentrated all his attention on the mountain forest shrouded in thick fog, staring at the ghost's movements without blinking.
Finally, when the memory flashed past in a certain jungle, Gu Xing firmly caught it.
I remembered--
This woman appeared in the mysterious cellar of Karazawa Makoto's house.
Gu Xing recalled the scene carefully.
There are eight places on the walls on both sides of the cellar, five of which are murals and three of which are reliefs.
The woman with red eyes covering half her face is one of the five murals. In addition, both Sakurako and Amame are displayed as murals in the cellar.
At that time, Gu Xing deduced from this that all the grotesques in the murals had left this cellar and began to truly exercise rules in the human world.
This woman is grotesque, and a rather horrifying grotesque at that. The weirdness that comes out of Makoto Karasawa's house is anything but worry-free. Gu Xing thought of this instinctively.
Why is she here?
Gu Xing stared at this face, trying to find some details and clues.
When he focused on a certain red eye, he suddenly found that there was a human face reflected in this eye!
Is his face reflected?
He used his vision far beyond that of ordinary people to observe the face, only to find that it was a completely unfamiliar face that he had never seen before in his life.
Then, he looked at the other red eyes on the woman's face. Each eye reflected a different and unfamiliar face. In other words, reflecting the heads...
This half of the woman's face is densely covered with hundreds of eyes, reflecting hundreds of different faces, hundreds of heads...
Could she be a witch with the head pulled out of her head?
For a moment, this thought flashed through Gu Xing's mind.
It was possible, of course, that the heads belonged to those she had killed.
If she is the witch with the head, then he should find Makoto Karasawa as soon as possible to learn more about the cellar and the mural.
Yes, I need to find Karasawa Makoto.
Gu Xing continued to observe the woman, trying to find more clues.
The terrifying woman also kept looking at him, until an unknown amount of time later, a strong feeling of sleepiness came over him. He seemed to have received an irresistible command and fell into a deep sleep.
…
"Gu Xingjun, wake up!"
The sweet voice of the Holy Son came to his ears. Gu Xing struggled to open his eyes and saw the Holy Son lying next to him, looking at him with his beautiful big eyes.
"We agreed today that we are going to visit Chiyo-san!"
Gu Xing was lying on the bed, his head heavy, and he felt like he had forgotten something very important.
What exactly is it...I can’t remember, it’s so uncomfortable.
"certainly,"
Gu Xing touched Shengzi's head and said, "I also want to see how she is doing after the separation."
Holy Son: "Then you need to wash up quickly. This place is not close to Dongdu."
"I'll hurry up!"
"No driving allowed!"
…
After getting up from the bed, Gu Xing walked to
In the bathroom, look in the mirror——
He is naked from the waist up, has a great figure, and beautiful abs...
There was a thin black coil on his neck, as if someone had drawn it with a carbon pen.
It is also like a distinctive black tattoo, marking that this person has become a slave or prey of the old era.
He immediately remembered that all the victims killed by the Headless Witch had two things in common before they were killed: first, they said that they had experienced amnesia; second, they said that a black mark appeared on their necks. Coil.
! ! !
Obviously, he was targeted by the Headless Witch.
What happened last night?
"Dong Er," Gu Xing called to Dong Er, "What happened last night?"
【last night? 】
"right."
[Everything is normal, you slept soundly. I rarely see you sleeping so soundly]
"Where is the Holy Son?"
[The same goes for the Holy Son]
[Oh, by the way, she got up and went to the bathroom midway]
"Did you see the black coil around my neck?"
After waiting for a while, Dong Er replied:
[Black coil? 】
"Yes."
[So you are being targeted by the Bald-headed Witch? 】
"That's why I want to ask you, what happened last night?"
[But, you obviously slept soundly last night...and I really can't see any black coils around your neck]
Helpless, Gu Xing had no choice but to gather the weirdos together and ask if anyone noticed anything special happened last night.
All the weirdos looked as dazed as Dong Er.
Only Yosuke said that a strange sister put a coin in his bowl. But Yosuke completely forgot what the other party looked like.
Gu Xing opened the book "Happiness Knocks on the Door" that represented Yosuke. There was no record of the strange woman putting coins in Yosuke's bowl. In other words, the record was erased.
This kind of erasure is very unusual. Gu Xing remembers that the last time a similar situation happened was when the crow fell into the weird town of reincarnators.
It seems that I can only rely on myself.
He calmed down and thought carefully, vaguely remembering that he seemed to have had a dream last night, in which he decided to visit Karasawa Makoto as soon as possible.
"Karasawa..."
If something strange really happened last night, or the witch with the head had appeared last night, then Gu Xing, who was in the state at that time, would definitely think of leaving some clues for his future self.
Because the victims of the Headless Witch all suffered from amnesia!
Karasawa is the head-plucked witch? Or, where can Karasawa find clues to the head-plucked witch?
He must visit Karasawa Makoto as soon as possible.
…
"Miss Seiko,"
In the hotel room under the snow, Shengzi answered the phone, and the voice of the investigator from the East Police Department came from the other end, "The vehicle is ready, you can leave at any time."
"Thank you, please excuse me."
After hanging up the phone, Shengzi looked at Gu Xing and said, "Let's go, dear, let's go see Sister Qianyo."
…
Outside the hotel door under the snow, a black car was parked.
Eijiro Kita sat in the driver's seat, fiddling with the instrument panel and various buttons, getting familiar with the car's devices.
ALIPROJECT's song "Snow Noir" came from the carriage:
"On a night when the snow is falling, I am alone...as if I were a lost child...quietly closing my eyes and falling asleep...until the gentle whisper of snow reaches you."
Gu Xing, who was dressed like a director, took Shengzi's hand and walked out of the Xuexia Hotel.
Gu Xing opened the door for Shengzi and let her sit in the trunk, and then he got in from the other side.
Eijiro Kita started the car and the car slowly drove forward.
After the two parts of "Toy" and the TV series "Prey" were released and triggered a craze for watching movies and dramas, Eijiro Kita, as the crew's assistant photographer, prop handler, and full-time driver, followed the same rules as other members of the alliance. Received further completion.
Specifically from the original——
[He is used to traveling at night, and all night alleys are his weapon for traveling through space in taxis] (E-)
Completed and upgraded to [He is no longer only obsessed with the night, but can also work diligently during the day. All the cars he drives will have the regular characteristics of his original taxi, and have the ability to travel through space in alleys] (E+)
"To be honest," Shengzi covered his chest and threw himself into Gu Xing's arms, "I can't help but get excited when I think about seeing Sister Qianyo again. How about you?"
Gu Xing: "I'm okay, I feel like I'm seeing old friends again."
The Son wants to see Chiyo, while Gu Xing needs to see Karasawa Makoto.
One is in Nerima Ward, Toto, and the other is in Seyodani, Rito, which are far apart.
It's not like Gu Xing hasn't considered calling to get to know Karasawa Makoto, but if he communicates on the phone, he lacks the sense of interaction on the spot and can't see the other party's expression clearly. If Karasawa Makoto lies, it will not be easy to see through.
After thinking carefully, Gu Xing finally decided to split up -
While controlling the Yamaura clan's clone, pretending to be a director, he accompanied the Holy Son to meet Chiyo and conduct some investigation.
On the other side, as a detective from Gu's Detective Agency, Gu Xing himself went to visit Karasawa Makoto to look for clues about what he had forgotten last night.
This almost dual-tasking state comes from Rule 4 of Yamaura’s weird clone:
[In a short period of time, Gu Xing can become one with the Shanpu family. In this fusion state, many incredible things will happen].
Of course, during the period when Gu Xing frequently used Shanpu's clones to act as directors and shoot movies, Rule 4 also showed signs of being gradually completed.
The specific manifestation is that every time Gu Xing discovers something new from the rules of weird clones, he will add it to the specific expression of Shanpu's clone rule 4.
Therefore, Rule 4 is now expressed in the book "The Crucible" as:
[In a short period of time, Gu Xing can become one with the Shanpu family. In this fusion state, many incredible things will happen]
[For example, Gu Xing can use the method of consciousness fusion to control Shanpu's clone and Gu Xing's own body respectively to achieve dual tasks and separate actions]
[But it must be remembered that after each separate action, the two consciousnesses must be brought together in time to merge and assimilate the memories. Otherwise, the longer the separate actions last, the more likely it is that they will become two people with independent personalities and consciousnesses. individual】
Don't worry, Gu Xing will never let himself become two Gu Xings.
…
When Gu Xing took a taxi and arrived at Karasawa Makoto's villa in Shifeng Valley, Lidu, Karasawa Makoto was waiting outside the gate in person, and her agent Takanashi Juri was behind her.
Before getting off the bus, Gu Xing secretly complained in his mind: The taxis on the street are really not as good as the ones he raises at home. They can't shuttle through the space in the alley, and they don't have their own BG. They are really expensive, slow, and the treatment is poor.
Gu Xing had not considered using his gray eyes to teleport directly to the door of Karasawa Makoto's villa, but that was some kind of weird rule after all. Using it too much would not only create dependence, but also have some unavoidable side effects.
In addition, Gu Xing also deliberately chooses some time to experience a normal life, taking a taxi, cooking, exercising, traveling... and falling in love like a normal person.
Otherwise, if time goes too long, one day, you may forget your original identity as a human being.
Having said that, it would be great if Eijiro Kita could be divided into two or three like Fujino.
Wait...Fujino...Sakurako, how about letting Sakurako give it a try?
Unfortunately, after asking Sakurako, Sakurako said that Eijiro Kita is a good man and has never had any suspicion or intention of cheating, and it is not within the scope of her rules.
.
That would be a pity.
…
"Hey, passenger,"
When they were about to arrive, the driver couldn't help but ask when he looked at the super national actress who was dressed in fashionable clothes and well-groomed and waiting quietly on the roadside:
"Look, is that Miss Makoto Karasawa!"
Gu Xing: "Yes, driver, just stop here."
Driver: "Ah, could it be that... Miss Makoto Karasawa is waiting for you?"
Gu Xing: "Maybe, but I'm not completely sure."
Driver: "What do you mean by not being completely sure!"
Gu Xing: "It means - I made an appointment with Karasawa Makoto, but I feel like such a big star won't be waiting for me here."
Driver: "Please! Can you get an autograph for me? If you want an autograph, I can take the bus for free." Gu Xing: "I can still afford the fare."
The driver held his hand tightly: "Is the fare important? If you can help me get a signature, I will be grateful forever!"
Gu Xing: "Okay, I'll give it a try."
…
"Hello Detective Hirokawa!"
When Gu Xing got out of the car, Karasawa Makoto took two quick steps, came to him, and greeted him warmly, "I didn't expect to see you again so soon."
"Feel sorry,"
Gu Xing waved the palm-sized notebook in his hand, which contained all the unusual situations the taxi driver had encountered in the past month. "I would like to trouble Miss Tang Ze to leave a signature for this driver, is it okay?"
"no problem,"
Karasawa Makoto smiled and said: "If it is your request, a hundred signatures will be no problem."
…
"You are amazing,"
The driver sitting in the driver's seat took the notebook from Gu Xing's hand, looked at Karasawa Makoto's vivid handwriting on it, and said excitedly:
"I just heard Ms. Karasawa telling you that if it were you, there would be no problem with a hundred signatures. To have such a friendship with Ms. Karasawa, I am totally in love with you!"
Gu Xing: "It's okay."
In fact, it must be admitted that Karasawa Makoto's special attention and treatment did give Gu Xing some unnecessary sense of vanity.
This vanity will be further magnified especially when strangers cast envious glances.
Gu Xing once tried to curb this sense of vanity, but when he realized that this was human instinct and that deliberately suppressing it would make it more artificial, he accepted it calmly.
Driver: "Please allow me to make another slightly excessive request - can you allow me to take a photo with Ms. Karasawa Makoto? I will definitely report back to you in the future!"
Gu Xing: "Hey, don't push yourself too far..."
…
Sitting in the living room of the villa, Tang Ze's assistant served Gu Xing exquisite refreshments.
"Excuse me, why are you so anxious to come to me?"
Karasawa Makoto was sitting on the sofa opposite Gu Xing, "What's the emergency?"
Gu Xing: "I want to know where you were last night?"
Karasawa Makoto: "It's in this villa."
Gu Xing: "Did anything special happen to you?"
Karasawa Makoto: "Oh, by the way, I had another nightmare last night."
Gu Xing: "About me?"
Makoto Karasawa: "Yes, I dreamed again that your head was being pulled out - along with many people, and blood was splattered everywhere."
Gu Xing: "Have you seen who the murderer is?"
"The scene was very chaotic," Karasawa Makoto shook his head. His face turned pale at some point. "Many heads were flying. I shivered all over and woke up instantly."
"Miss Karasawa," Gu Xing looked into her eyes carefully, "Have you heard about the head-plucked witch?"
Karasawa Makoto: "I have heard of it."
Gu Xing perked up, "Where are you?"
"On the forum," Karasawa Makoto said: "You know, when I don't have a schedule, I like to go to the online forum. They say that there is a head-plucking witch in Todu who pulled out the heads of a thousand people at once. The agency is still covering up about this."
"Not that much,"
Gu Xing carefully observed her eyes when she spoke. They were very clear and sincere, and she didn't really look like she was lying.
"It's a hundred heads."
Makoto Karasawa: "So there really is a witch with the headhead?"
Gu Xing: "Did you really just see it on the forum?"
"Wait a minute," Makoto Karasawa took out her phone, "I can find the post."
After a while, Karasawa Makoto saw a post about the Headless Witch in a forum named Koharu.
She handed the phone to Gu Xing to look at.
The poster's ID is Xiaoxi, who loves to tell stories. He is probably an immature student. He used very bloody and exaggerated sentences to describe the past of the Head-plucked Witch.
The comments below the post have reached tens of thousands of floors, and many people stopped by to tell horror stories about monsters eating people around them.
"It seems like an ogre has appeared in our town recently!"
"Have you ever seen a balloon with a human head floating in the sky? It has a stiff expression, like a zombie..."
"Red Shoes, I repeat again, the story of Red Shoes is absolutely not fiction!"
Such posts have become more frequent recently... It seems that the government is consciously relaxing control of speech on the Internet.
Gu Xing guessed that on the one hand, this was due to the failure of the amnestic device. On the other hand, it was probably some kind of lying down or shock therapy, so that the people could gradually adapt to this unavoidable and weird world.
"Excuse me,"
Makoto Karasawa asked in a low voice: "The terrifying scene about you I saw in my dream, was it really because of the Head-Beared Witch?"
"I'm just guessing," Gu Xing returned the phone to Karasawa Makoto, stood up and said goodbye, "Then, I won't bother you for now. We'll contact you if anything happens."
"Please wait a moment,"
Karasawa Makoto also stood up, "I have a heartfelt request."
Gu Xing: "Oh? Tell me."
"Is such that,"
Makoto Karasawa said, "Last night, a junior who had helped me invited me to Tokyo to play a cameo role in a movie she was filming... because she once stood up for me when I was in a very dangerous situation. This The favor has to be returned..."
Gu Xing: "To be honest, I really don't recommend you to go to Dongdu during this period. It's very unsafe."
Karasawa Makoto: "Do you know any inside information?"
Gu Xing: "This is inconvenient to talk about."
"Maybe you're right,"
Karasawa Makoto nodded, "After agreeing to this junior's request, I have been frightened and deeply uneasy——
You may not know, but my sixth sense has always been very accurate, and it has been this way since I was a child.
It is precisely because of my keen sixth sense that I have escaped earthquakes, tsunamis, fires, car accidents, and horrific monster cannibalism incidents, and I am fortunate enough to be alive today.
I know very well that once I go to Dongdu, something terrible will happen, but if I don't go, I will feel very ashamed of that junior. "
Gu Xing: "I understand, you want me to be your bodyguard again."
Karasawa Makoto: "Yes, saying bodyguard may be offensive to you. But my intuition tells me that if you are willing to go to Dongdu with me, then most of the time you can turn the danger into a blessing. So even if it is true, Even if I offend you, I would also like to boldly ask you what you think - the commission will definitely satisfy you."
Gu Xing: "What are you going to do if I refuse?"
Karasawa Makoto: "I have no choice but to go through it all - I really don't like the feeling of owing favors."
Gu Xing: "You want me to go to Dongdu with you, don't you also need to owe me a debt?"
My favor? "
"It's still the sixth sense," Karasawa Makoto looked directly into his eyes, "My sixth sense tells me that the favor I owe you is much better than the favor I owe that junior."
Gu Xing thought to himself, he might as well go to Dongdu on Tang Ze's behalf - that black coil appeared on his neck. A month later, if his head was really pulled out, he would still be in Lidu. Outrageous.
It's better to take this opportunity and transfer the main body to Dongdu to make things easier.
"Say it beforehand,"
Gu Xing said: "I may not be able to ensure your safety."
Karasawa Makoto showed a smile of sincere gratitude: "Then it's up to you!"
…
Rejecting Karasawa Makoto's kindness in arranging a special car to send him back, Gu Xing walked out of Karasawa Makoto's villa.
He was a little disappointed, but also a little doubtful - Karasawa Makoto didn't understand the Bearded Witch at all, so why did he send out instructions to find Karasawa Makoto last night?
In other words, does the bald-headed witch have some connection with Karasawa Makoto that even she herself doesn't know about?
cellar!
Gu Xing instantly thought of the mysterious cellar of Karasawa Makoto's family.
Apart from this, Gu Xing really couldn't think of any other possibilities.
The cellar is extremely mysterious and full of grotesque female bodies. Is the plucked-headed witch among them?
…
The cold wind is like a knife.
In the hell that Naya is connected to, in the frozen wilderness, there is an isolated cave covered thickly with ice and snow, like a giant ice silkworm.
This cave is the cellar of Karazawa Makoto's family. A few months ago, Gu Xing borrowed the [2D Camera] from the East Police Station and moved it here.
At this moment, Gu Xing...
