Through connections, she found a player who had encountered them.
She is a plump woman in her 40s. In reality, she is in charge of a large-scale high-tech company. Years of hard work in the business world have honed her willpower far beyond ordinary people.
According to Su Xiaoxiao's understanding, her social background is also extremely complicated, she belongs to a gray industry, and she started her career in a side job.
But just such a person, an old player who had escaped from nightmares many times, actually went crazy not long after encountering those people.
I can only live a comfortable life under the care of my family, huddled in bed, wrapped in a thick quilt, closed the doors and windows.
The approach of any stranger, or even a strange voice, would make her nervous, and her trembling lips seemed to be saying something that no one could understand...
Not long after Su Xiaoxiao visited her, he heard that she had died.
The cause of death remains a mystery.
After a long time, her friends in the police system received the news that the woman's death had been permanently closed in the police station, and he could not access it even with his authority.
All I know is that... it was very strange. The old forensic doctor who was responsible for the autopsy applied for transfer from his original post soon after, and disappeared after a while.
Su Xiaoxiao smelled a very special smell from it.
She did not use her connections to investigate the matter further, nor did she look for the whereabouts of the old forensic doctor who might know something.
She worries that she too will be involved.
The water here...is not something she can test.
Moreover... this mission is far more difficult than Chen Ran, but also the guy named Hao Shuai.
The shock he brought to him was no less than that of Chen Ran from Crimson Red, even more so, because in the eyes of his younger brother Su Ran, the color he represented was...weird.
When she asked her brother about his judgment, Su Ran was unusually silent. After a while, she slowly stretched out her hand and pointed out the window.
They were in the lighthouse at that time, and outside the window was a silent night.
Su Xiaoxiao blinked and then looked at her brother. She didn't understand what he meant.
But after a moment, she understood that her brother meant that the man... was black.
Same as the night here.
She had never heard of such a color from her brother's perception, and she never expected that black existed.
Black...what does it refer to?
Is it a metaphor that his heart is black, or is it saying that his danger index is worse than the crimson dust? Or... maybe even his younger brother can't see through him.
Therefore, a very special color is used to refer to it for distinction.
Su Xiaoxiao knew nothing.
But she was certain that the guy named Hao Shuai was not simple, because she was not the only one who noticed him, even Chenran from Crimson was also very interested in him.
In other words... it's the mutual vigilance between similar people.
So much so that she had to cooperate with him in acting, tricking him into the forest with the fat man next to him, intending to kill them with the help of the strange stone plate.
There is no doubt about the weirdness of this mission. Even the teammates in the mission are not ordinary people. Su Xiaoxiao can see that the motorcycle girl and the rock climbing girl Diplodocus who have encountered unexpected events are also very alert.
"Click!"
A strange sound suddenly came from the silent stone room.
Su Ran, who was huddled in the corner, couldn't help but shudder.
"Click!"
"Click!"
...
The frequency of the sound is getting faster and faster, like dense drum beats, light and thin, but full of texture, as if something wrinkled suddenly stretches out its body, or like some kind of creature covered with a hard shell... .shedding.
Although this metaphor is strange, this is exactly what Su Ran, who is different from ordinary people, is thinking at the moment.
He raised his head tremblingly and met a pair of bloodshot eyes.
In the dark corner, the old woman stretched her neck and revealed a twisted face. A pair of blood-red eyes stared at him, her mouth opened, and a slender tongue swirled along her lips.
The blue-purple lips were covered with fine lines of dryness, and when the tip of the tongue passed across it, blood actually spilled out.
Su Ran's pupils suddenly narrowed.
coming!
here we go again!
The strange whale song echoed in his ears again.
Empty, cold, lonely... It feels like being sunk under the Arctic Ocean, and you can only look up at the outside world through the thick ice.
But then... the ice cracked, and the dazzling sunlight seemed to flood into his pupils.
The next second, he woke up as if from a dream, still in the stone room.
The dazzling sunlight before was nothing but a blazing fire in the center of the stone chamber.
Against the backdrop of the swaying flames, Su Ran slowly shifted his gaze from the old woman to the wall beside her.
There...reflected the shadow of an old woman.
The shadow kept swaying against the firelight, becoming taller and larger.
The previous "click" sound was caused by it. It was obviously the same size as the old woman at first, but then it became 2 meters, 3 meters, 4 meters... the shadow even exceeded the height of the stone chamber.
It was leaning against the wall, shaking and twisting, exuding a strong ominous smell.
What's even weirder is that the old woman still remains in place, not moving, but the shadow... begins to approach Su Ran.
One step...two steps...
Two completely different colors intertwined in Su Ran's eyes.
One is that of an old woman, white and grayish, while the shadow on the wall is pure color, or in other words, transparent.
It's not appropriate to say that you can see it with your eyes. For Su Ran, it's more of a feeling that the guy leaving a shadow on the wall... is an existence invisible to the naked eye.
What is it?
He didn't know, but he was also not afraid, because to him, this guy was no different from the tiger he had fallen into the tiger park and faced.
He stood up, straightened his chest, and stretched out his hand towards the empty space in front of him, as if he was still waiting for the cute big cat to stick its head into his arms.
Just like myself back then.
The old woman was the only one left in the warm stone room. She was hiding in a corner where the light could not reach, with a meaningless light flashing in her eyes.
Accompanied by this, there was a rough, scary... chewing sound.
...
"What’s wrong with you?"
Chenran squinted his eyes and kept a distance of about 2 meters from Su Xiaoxiao, who was leading the way, so that if an emergency situation occurred, he would have enough warning opportunities.
But just now, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped without warning.
She covered her heart, cold sweat overflowed from her forehead, and her body trembled unconsciously, "What...what's going on?" She gasped for air, and then as if she sensed something, she immediately came to her. Looking in the direction, "My brother...maybe something happened!"
"Impossible," Chenran shook his head when he heard this, "Miss Su, you have also seen the clues I provided. Your brother will..."
"No," Su Xiaoxiao's pupils were trembling, and she swallowed, "Something must have happened to my brother! I can feel it."
