It's approaching midnight.
The sea breeze roared, and before you knew it, a large group of thick dark clouds was blown over the entire island.
The moon, which exuded a lonely light, occasionally poked its head out of it, but then quickly disappeared.
The islanders who are accustomed to the low-pressure climate have already covered their windows with thick wooden boards. Because of this, there are no bright lights on the entire island except street lights.
In total darkness.
This old wooden house near the coast seems so lonely, as if it may disappear from the world at any time, blending into the world with the dark sea as the background.
With cold sweat on their faces and gloomy expressions, Matsumoto Koji and Izuyama Taro parked their car behind a leeward rock and rested for ten minutes. Then they carried the machetes and pistols they had snatched from the tourist center and supported each other. Then he got out of the car.
Stepping on the cobblestones soaked by the waves, they were careful not to turn on their flashlights.
Because the bullet grazed his thigh, Izuyama Taro was walking with a slight limp. Finally, after almost slipping again, he couldn't help but cursed in a low voice:
"Asshole! Don't let me know who the person is who is hiding in the dark and sneaking up on us!"
This was of course ironic. At this moment, he wished he could find out that guy and eat him alive!
Matsumoto Koji said nothing, but the expression on his face was equally gloomy and terrifying.
How long has it been since you were so unlucky?
First, a companion was attacked by a shark and unfortunately bled to death. Then a famous detective appeared inexplicably, holding so-called evidence and saying that it was a murder!
Then the police came.
Fortunately, I have rich experience. After arriving on this island, I considered that someone might recognize my identity, so I searched for a cabin here in advance and prepared enough food and medicine. Otherwise, I would just These two bruises had to be bandaged. At this time, they could either take the risk and rob the island's clinic, or they could only be taken away by the police.
As for the companion next to me, if you want to vent your emotions, let's do it. Anyway, the sound of the sea breeze is so loud now. If you don't turn on the lights, you will be spotted.
Push open the fairly solid wooden door.
After Matsumoto Koji boarded up the only window on the wall, he took a deep breath and turned on the flashlight.
The deep white light illuminates the interior of this small wooden house.
Although I had already observed it during the day, at this time, I had a different feeling.
His eyes couldn't help but sweep across the inside of the room, to the half-open door.
Inexplicably, a silent chill surged into my heart.
"Hey, Matsumoto..."
Izuyamataro's voice brought him back from his thoughts.
"Ah? What's wrong?" Matsumoto Koji was startled.
"Don't be stunned and deal with the wound quickly."
Izu Santaro used his backpack as a pillow and lay on the floor covered with cardboard boxes. He threw the antibiotics for application and complained:
"It's really unlucky! Although the painkiller injection shouldn't affect tomorrow's actions, we are all injured... What should we do with the sharks in that place?"
"Don't worry, there will be a solution..."
Matsumoto Koji's answer seemed a little absent-minded.
While cleaning the wound, he focused his attention on the utility room behind him.
what happened?
Is there something over there... Impossible, this is not a tourist attraction, and who would come here in the middle of the night?
"Matsumoto..."
Izuyama Taro also noticed something was wrong with his companion and was about to speak.
Suddenly, there was a "dong, dong, dong" sound outside the wooden house.
This sound is very rhythmic, and the intervals between each sound are almost the same, which makes it sound eerie.
Late at night, at the beach, knocking on the door...
The two treasure hunters held their breath.
who? !
Who is it!
Matsumoto Koji did not dare to hesitate and immediately took out the pistol from his waist. At the same time, he put the flashlight into his arms and cut off the only light source in the room.
He tried to slow down and walked towards the door.
However, the clearly audible 'squeaking' sound of the soles pressing against the wooden floor immediately gave both of them a creeping pressure.
Suddenly, the knocking stopped.
Oops!
Matsumoto Koji was startled and suddenly stopped and did not dare to move.
He stared at the dark wooden board, as if he could feel it. At this time, there was a figure standing outside the door, looking at him.
The already gloomy atmosphere in the room became increasingly heavy.
However, after a brief silence, the knock on the door started again.
Boom, boom, boom...
The mechanical, stiff, and orderly sound echoed in my ears again.
what to do? Do you want to shoot directly...
The fear and haze brought about by the unknown made him feel a burst of pressure, so depressing that it made his spine shiver and the hairs on his body stood up.
Matsumoto Koji felt that he had been waiting for a long time, but also felt that only a moment had passed.
Finally, he took another step.
"Squeak..."
The harsh sound reached my ears again.
This damn rotten wood!
Matsumoto Koji cursed secretly, but this time he did not stop, but rushed directly towards the door.
Squeak, squeak, squeak...
There was a loud sound of footsteps.
But Matsumoto Koji can't care about so much now.
Maybe there was just a lost tourist outside, passing by by chance, heard the noise in the room, and wanted to ask for the way back to the town.
If so, that's great!
Matsumoto Koji quickly came to the door. After pulling the door bolt, he kicked it directly. At the same time, he held the gun in his right hand and aimed it. He took out the flashlight from his injured left arm and shined it outside. He did it in one go, but... …
When he saw clearly the situation outside, his whole body froze on the spot.
"What happened?" Izuyama Taro, whose legs and feet were not very convenient, asked hurriedly.
"No, no one..."
There was a hint of panic and panic in Matsumoto Koji's tone.
Even if it's not tourists outside, but the police, no... According to common sense, it's impossible for the police to find this place in such a short period of time, but if it's really the police who are here, he can also understand, but why, why is there no one outside? …
"some."
In an instant, all the noise in his ears, including the wind, disappeared, leaving only this clearly audible voice.
Matsumoto Koji's face turned pale and he turned around suddenly.
I saw an extra figure appearing in the wooden house where two people were supposed to be.
It was a young man with black hair and brown eyes, wearing a pair of round glasses.
Under a black jacket that seemed to be embroidered with silver lines, Izu Santaro was collapsed at his feet, without even a scream.
"hateful!"
Matsumoto Koji didn't even think about it, he just took aim and shot.
However, when his index finger touched the trigger, he couldn't pull it down no matter what.
In the gap of the pistol that is invisible to the naked eye, a group of nano-robots has already taken shape, firmly locking its mechanical power.
"Your caution wasted at least 5 minutes of my time."
Ye Gengyi said, quickly came to Matsumoto Koji and kicked him in the stomach.
There was a dull thud.
The treasure hunter was like a sandbag. After taking several steps backward, he fell heavily on the pebble beach outside the door.
Hmm, so heavy...
Matsumoto Koji felt as if he had been hit by a car. His internal organs...especially his stomach, where he had been kicked, felt a burst of pain. He almost fainted without even taking a breath.
"...Just like I thought, he's very resistant to beatings."
Ye Gengyi's demonic voice brought him back to reality.
"You...who are you?!"
Matsumoto Koji struggled to get up.
Unexpectedly, Ye Gengyi had no intention of giving him this chance, and kicked him directly on the injured left shoulder of the treasure hunter.
"ah!!!"
The wound that was just covered with a layer of scab oozed blood again, and Matsumoto Koji screamed, but it didn't float very far before being lost in the growing sea breeze.
