Seeing the door open, the figure immediately retreated and disappeared into the corner of the corridor again while giving up approaching the young man.
Meanwhile, the corridor.
"Sister Tang Meng, are you sure there is someone outside the door?"
"Well, I'm sure. I just heard running noises in the corridor, and someone seemed to be talking. As for the sound..."
"Looks a bit like Li Tianheng."
"What? Is that habitual thief named Li? Impossible! This guy is extremely afraid of death and has the same moral character as Chen Shuihong. Does he have the guts to run around knowing that the hotel is haunted? He must have been hiding in a corner. Trembling."
"Don't say that to others. Although I haven't been in the team for a long time, I know that Li Tianheng is definitely not a timid person. He is very different from Chen Shuihong. If any of his companions are in danger, Li Tianheng will not back down. .”
Walking out of the door of the guest room where he was hiding, in the corridor, Kong Ling was currently full of disdain and ridicule, while Tang Meng was persuading her with sincerity and kept saying good things for Li Tianheng. Just as the female doctor just explained, half a minute ago, there was a sudden call outside the door. Come and hear the sound. Tang Meng, who had been staring at the mirror in the living room, came to his senses first, then left the sofa and walked out of the living room, followed closely by Kong Ling.
Yes, as the saying goes, people are different and have different ways of dealing with problems. Since escaping from the 7th floor, Kong Ling has been running and reached the 3rd floor in one breath. What is even more shocking is that if other executors are escaping from the 7th floor, Almost everyone in the back of the building stayed in the corridor, so Kong Ling was the only executor who dared to enter the room to rest. His courage was basically the same as seeking death. After all, everyone knew that there were mirrors everywhere in the hotel, and the guest rooms were obviously smaller than the corridor space. Once If danger occurs, it will be difficult to escape, not to mention that no one knows whether the mirror has the ability to block.
It is precisely because everyone knows that guest rooms are more dangerous than corridors, so since they escaped from the seventh floor, no matter who they were or where they escaped, everyone chose to stay in the corridors. Unexpectedly, Kong Ling became the only exception, first on the third floor After staying in the guest room for a while, he soon heard a noise. Following the sound, he opened the door and peeped out. He saw that Tang Meng happened to be passing by the corridor. Seeing this, Kong Lin, who was extremely bored, was overjoyed and hurriedly pulled the female doctor into the room. The result was positive. , different from the girl's casual nature in the room. Staring at the mirror in the living room, the female doctor became more nervous and did not dare to stay here at all. She was about to persuade Kong Ling to go out early, but there happened to be a running sound outside the door, and during this period, she could still faintly I heard someone speaking, and his voice sounded a bit like Li Tianheng! .
As expected, Tang Meng, who listened to the sound outside the door and heard the familiar voice, had long wanted to leave the room, quickly seized the opportunity and pushed the door open. He was able to escape in time from this room, which was obviously more dangerous than the corridor. However, there were also Strange place...
I opened the door and came to the corridor. Looking around, I found that the corridor was empty. Where was the sound of running? Where is Li Tianheng?
The picture returns to reality.
"Tch, Sister Tang Meng, please stop speaking for that habitual thief named Li. Well, even if it was really Li Tianheng just now, I guess he has almost gone downstairs by now. Unless we follow him, there is no chance of finding him again. Seeing that Tang Meng kept saying good things for Li Tianheng, she curled her lips and explained the reality in an airy way. She obviously didn't take Li Tianheng's hurried passing seriously. She was not interested, but Tang Meng was unwilling to ignore this matter. The reason was not her. She didn't care about Li Tianheng, but what the female doctor discovered. She smelled something unusual from Li Tianheng's hurried running and urgent voice just now, that was...
What happened to Li Tianheng? Why did he run downstairs in such a hurry? Although I couldn't hear the words clearly, my voice was very urgent, as if I was looking for someone? Or desperately want to tell someone something! ?
(what happened?)
……………
In the early hours of midnight, everything is silent, and the sky is completely wrapped in night. As the deadliest time of the day, the city tends to be quiet. Perhaps this is taken for granted in the eyes of ordinary people, but nothing is absolute. If you scan the city through the night, you will find that A certain building in the middle of the city has undergone unprecedented and abnormal changes.
The brightly lit high-rise building was shrouded in a thick white fog like a coat, and dangerous scenes were frequently staged inside.
Alpha Hotel, 3rd floor corridor.
Staring at the void ahead
At the well-traveled staircase, Tang Meng's thoughts were racing. She was trying her best to analyze Li Tianheng's intentions. It's not because she cared about this, but because the environment was too dangerous. From the moment she discovered many anomalies in the hotel during the day, Tang Meng She was in an unprecedented state of panic throughout the whole process, not including the ferocious mirror worm that might get out of the mirror at any time. Tang Meng didn't know what this situation looked like to others, but in her eyes, it was basically like waiting to die. The difference is not big. Indeed, knowing the terrible truth that the hotel is full of mirrors and that mirror bugs can attack people through mirrors, this feeling of being unable to hide is enough to make people collapse and go crazy. Thanks to her firm mind, she changed Ordinary adults would have been scared crazy. Of course, the above is the key point. The key is that continuing like this is not an option. Just because he realized that the danger was approaching, Tang Meng had been racking his brains to think of countermeasures since he escaped from the seventh floor. Without He Fei's help Under such circumstances, I only analyze the problem by myself, trying to find a way out of this supernatural mission. As for the method of analysis? Obviously, unlike He Fei's complex and changeable way of thinking, as a psychiatrist, Tang Meng's analysis method is relatively simple, which is to think from other people's perspective and analyze the problem from the perspective of the planner of the curse.
Since he was analyzing the problem from the perspective of curse, Tang Meng's thoughts naturally went into how to lay out and even how to preserve a glimmer of hope for the executors while building an unsolvable dead situation. This is an extremely complex problem, and one of them includes With the two major doubts of the mirror being damaged and the orientation changing, the overall situation can be summarized as an abnormality in the hotel environment. Why? Why do everything in this hotel have the property of self-recovery? Also, from the perspective of the ethereal eye, why are the positions of people and objects misaligned? What exactly is going on?
Because the problem was overly complicated, unimaginable and unheard of, Tang Meng failed without any suspense. Her empathy was fruitless. Therefore, Tang Meng was eager to obtain new clues. In her opinion, the only way to solve the problem was to obtain more valuable clues. , only then can she hope to continue the analysis. Unfortunately, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. It is true that the female doctor thinks she has the ability to continue the analysis based on clues, but the problem is that there are no new clues? Ever since she ran away from the 7th floor like everyone else, she has never found any valuable clues worth paying attention to. However, she met Kong Ling, who was extremely courageous. At first, she tried to get information from the girl, but unfortunately, to no avail. Just like him, Kong Ling didn't find anything worth paying attention to while going downstairs, until...
It wasn't until she vaguely heard that Li Tianheng was approaching the third floor in a hurry that Tang Meng finally made the latest discovery. As expected, her thoughts that had been stagnant were diverted by Li Tianheng's attraction, and then she focused on analyzing Li Tianheng's intention.
(Judging from Li Tianheng’s eager reaction when he just passed by, he seemed to be in a hurry to find someone. No, even if he wanted to find someone, why didn’t he use communication equipment? In a sense, there is no communication in this mission Shield, if he is eager to find someone, he can use his mobile phone or communicator to contact him. There is no need to look for him in person anyway, right?)
(Huh? Could it be that communication blocking occurred? Under the influence of some unknown force, the mobile phone signal failed again?).
Thinking of this, Tang Meng took action and took out two communication devices, a communicator and a mobile phone. He checked carefully and found that the signal of the mobile phone was normal and the communicator was also normal.
(Huh?)
"Sister Tang Meng, what are you doing? Are you worried that there is no signal?" Seeing Tang Meng, who was still silent, suddenly take out a communication device, Kong Lingzi, who wanted to change the subject, widened his eyes and asked curiously. After saying this, the female doctor smiled slightly Shaking his head: "I was worried before, but in fact there is no problem with the signal."
"Oh, right!"
Staring at the communication device with full signal, Tang Meng suddenly looked at Kongling and changed the topic: "When I met you before, you seemed to have said that you had been having an ominous premonition? Can you tell me more specifically?"
As mentioned above, although Tang Meng's current plan is to analyze the way out and look for clues, after confirming that the communication equipment is still normal, Tang Meng once again thought of other things with suspicion and puzzling. He remembered that when he first met Kong Ling, the other party claimed that he was very nervous. , saying that he has always had an ominous premonition, holding on to the last glimmer of hope, Tang Meng wanted to know what it was, and the result was positive. When he saw the female doctor asking herself with a solemn expression, her expression changed unconsciously from the natural and ethereal look earlier.
"Um, actually I don't know what kind of stock it is.
What exactly does the foreboding mean, but I do know who is causing me trouble. "
Maintaining a troubled expression, Kong Ling answered truthfully, and as expected, Tang Meng frowned and asked again: "Who?"
"Chen Xiaoyao."
"Chen, Chen Xiaoyao? Are you sure it's him?"
"Well, yes, about 5 minutes ago, I suddenly felt that ruffian inexplicably. The growing ominous premonition was passed on to me by him. In the end, I had a feeling that I would never be able to see him again in this life. The tension, don’t ask me why I can sense him, I don’t know, it’s just..."
No one knows why Kong Ling can sense Chen Xiaoyao. This not only shocked Tang Meng who was listening, but even Kong Ling himself, who had an ominous premonition, couldn't explain the reason. This may be the case, but, as he talks, , just as Tang Meng became more and more fascinated and confused as he listened, he saw that Kong Ling, who had been confused just now, suddenly changed the subject, and then scratched his head and added: "But strangely enough, at first I Although I felt that Chen Xiaoyao was very dangerous, it didn't take long for the ominous premonition to disappear on its own, and people were no longer nervous."
"this……"
Tang Meng was confused, dumbfounded by Kong Ling's extremely weird explanation. If she was trying to get clues from Kong Ling's mouth at first, then at this moment, Tang Meng no longer knew what to say, and she was completely entangled in many... Among the messy clues.
"Hey, Sister Tang Meng, what's wrong with you? Why don't you say anything? Have you thought of the answer?"
(I'm not a god, how could I possibly think of the answer... But then again, since the ominous premonition can disappear quickly, it actually proves in disguise that Chen Xiaoyao's crisis has been resolved, and the situation is very likely to be developing in a good direction. After all, Kongling This girl's eyes and soul are both special, and her perception should be very reliable. Well, wait a minute, since this girl has the ability to sense danger, how about...)
As mentioned above, since she is not an omnipotent god, Tang Meng will not and cannot analyze her vague premonition of danger for Kong Ling. However, after thinking about it, it seems that her thoughts suddenly become clear. After confirming that Kong Ling actually has a certain degree of After sensing the danger, an idea flashed in Tang Meng's mind. She put her mobile device back into her pocket and looked at Kong Ling tentatively and asked: "By the way, Kong Ling, since you can even sense it with Chen Xiaoyao, then try it now, try it." Can you sense other people? For example, Brother Peng, or how to fly? Can you sense them?"
Tang Meng's intention of this move is obvious, that is, to use Kong Ling's unique perception to confirm whether her companions are safe. This is what she thought. Kong Ling, who was casually reminded by her, did so, especially after learning that she actually existed vaguely. After discovering an ability that seemed to be soul perception, Ethereal became curious and planned to try it, but...
Just when Tang Meng made the suggestion and Kong Ling himself planned to concentrate on trying again, Kong Ling's expression changed, from being eager to try it to a face filled with doubts, and even showing extremely obvious shock and panic!
The reason for her sudden change of expression and shock and panic was...
She saw red, and everything in her field of vision was blood red!
As mentioned many times before, the Sky Eye is a very rare eye. In addition to being able to see through many falsehoods in the world, it also has the ability to predict the life and death of others in disguise. Yes, if someone is about to die, then In the eyes of Kongling, a ball of red light will appear out of thin air in the person's head, and the thicker the red light, the higher the probability of death. Sometimes it will even be so rich that it covers the whole body. It is also worth mentioning that this kind of red light will appear in the sky. The red light that represents death is not only effective for others, but also for Kong Ling herself. In fact, if Kong Ling herself is in danger of death, her head will also be covered in red light, and her field of vision will be filled with red light.
Just now, Kong Ling saw red. The moment Tang Meng finished speaking, he found that Tang Meng, who was still normal beside him, was instantly wrapped in red light, and his whole body was enveloped by a ball of bloody red light that emerged out of thin air. Except for Tang Meng who was The rich red light covered the whole body, and even her own vision turned red after half a second. Seeing this scene, Kong Ling might think that she was dazzled, but unfortunately, she was not dazzled, because there was evidence before her eyes, and it represented The evidence is the mirror.
At this moment, maintaining his panic, the ethereal instinct turned his head and looked at a person.
A square mirror inlaid on the wall of the corridor. As far as the eye can see, Tang Meng in the mirror is all red. In addition to Tang Meng being covered in red light, he in the mirror is also wrapped in a rich body that represents death. Red light! ! !
Ding!
It was as if his body was touched by a sudden electric current. As soon as he saw the red light in front of him, his expression changed drastically. His heartbeat accelerated the next moment when he realized that death was coming. He immediately shouted a warning to Tang Meng, who was still confused next to him. : "Sister Tang Meng, run! We..."
Kong Ling didn't finish the next words, not because she didn't want to finish, but because she discovered an abnormality and an unexpected and shocking incident.
"Ugh! Body, body..."
Kong Ling could no longer move. Together with Tang Meng, who reacted more slowly next to him, their bodies froze in the blink of an eye. Their movements stopped abruptly. It felt as if they were suddenly grasped by a huge invisible hand. The whole body was contracted and it was difficult to move except for The body was frozen and unable to move. Even the nerves controlling the body were tightened as if they were collectively paralyzed, causing the throat to moan and unable to speak. It was now firmly restricted in place.
"woo woo woo woo!".
Realizing that her body was inexplicably frozen, it was only then that Tang Meng discovered the abnormality, and then her instincts struggled wildly within the restrictions that seemed to be collectively wrapped by the giant hand's current. It is true that her brain was still free, and her brain could still issue instructions to the limbs of her body. She ordered, but her nerves had been damaged for a long time but she could not execute the brain's command. Now she could not even move her fingers, let alone twist her body and move her limbs. Seeing that her struggle was ineffective, Tang Meng was frightened and was trapped by this sudden phenomenon. She was so frightened that her beautiful face turned pale and her beautiful eyes widened, and her squirming throat frequently let out frightened sobs. Tang Meng was like this, and Kong Ling was the same. With the help of special eyes that could predict life and death, although she discovered the danger of death in advance, she was only a human being after all. As an underage girl, the means to deal with danger are slightly insufficient, but it is precisely this dispensable lack of experience that has now pushed her to a desperate situation, causing her to be restrained by a powerful energy.
"Ugh..."
Keeping her throat whimpering, Kong Ling's face turned white and her head was sweating coldly while she was incarcerated. Her pair of big, rounded eyes looked at Tang Meng who was standing next to her. Through her eyes, she saw Tang Meng's face full of fear and cold sweat. He kept scratching his forehead, as if he was caught by a hawk in despair, but...
(No, something’s wrong. It’s not like being caught by a locust. The physical confinement is definitely not caused by a locust!)
Yes, due to the suddenness of the incident, as soon as Tang Meng realized that his body was imprisoned, Tang Meng subconsciously concluded that he had been caught by the worm and restrained by the mirror ghost that could only move instantaneously. The female doctor thought so, but she had just observed the ethereal appearance of the mirror on the wall. But they seem to hold the opposite attitude. Through the previous information collection, the executor has now understood some of the characteristics of the Mirror Ghost. In fact, the Mirror Ghost itself does not have the ability to teleport. The so-called elusive and fast movement is actually just with the help of mirrors everywhere in the hotel. Forget it, only with the help of a mirror can the Mirror Ghost achieve an effect similar to teleportation. What's more, whenever the Mirror Ghost is about to appear, the mirror surface will often turn red in advance. In addition, there is another point worth noting, that is, according to Kong Ling's personal guess, She discovered that although the Mirror Ghost exists in an extremely weird way, its essence is a physical spirit. It is a worm that mainly relies on physical means to kill living people. Since it is a physical spirit, it is unlikely that the Mirror Ghost can control too much. Supernatural means.
evidence?
The evidence has long been available. I remember that when everyone was in danger on the seventh floor, everyone gathered in the small power room, but the door was easily pushed open by the executioner who was eager to escape. Nothing happened during this period. The fact that the room door cannot be opened is enough to prove that Mirror Ghost does not have the ability to block. It is conceivable that if it does not even have the ability to block, it is even more impossible to talk about imprisonment.
The above are the speculations that Kong Ling instinctively came up with after discovering that she was imprisoned. She does not think that the person imprisoning her is a mirror ghost. Since this move was not done by a monster, then...
"Woo, who, who, who on earth is it?" Maintaining the ups and downs and tension, Ethereal Flaw struggled to speak out, and forced a question out of his throat even though his body was clearly frozen and it was difficult to speak. Next...
The ethereal question miraculously received an answer, because as soon as her inquiry ended, a sound came from the scene, a very rhythmic light footsteps.
Da da da.
The footsteps came from the front. In fact, as soon as Kong Ling finished speaking, he saw a figure emerging from the corner of the corridor. From the backlit shadow connecting the stairs, a person slowly walked out. A beautiful woman whose appearance could be compared with that of a fairy.
Observing with wide eyes, he saw the woman's delicate facial features and snow-white skin. Her clothing, which was as white as her skin, further highlighted the woman's extraordinary temperament. The only regret was that although the woman had an extremely beautiful appearance and a good temperament, the other party had a pair of Abnormal eyes. At this moment, as the beautiful woman slowly approached, whether it was Kong Ling or Tang Meng, they saw the woman's eyes clearly. They were shocking eyes with only the whites of the eyes and no pupils!
As for being a woman?
Wenona is the senior member of the Borneo team named Wenona, that strange woman who always closes her eyes no matter how many times they meet.
At this moment, Wenona rarely opened her eyes, and her pair of pupil-less eyes were locked on the two women Kong Ling and Tang Meng who were frozen side by side opposite them. As expected, the women's eyes must be special, causing Kong Ling and Tang Meng to freeze together. The most likely thing is those eyes.
(Eyes, what’s going on with her eyes?)
Because he really didn't expect that the one who imprisoned him was actually Wenona, a human executor. Seeing this, Kong Ling was stunned and Tang Meng was even more shocked. He never dreamed that the truth of the matter was like this, or that they were imprisoned. Is this the beautiful woman in front of me?
but why? Why imprison them? What is the purpose of this move?
With growing fear and doubt, Tang Meng was too frightened to speak, but Kong Ling still struggled to speak, and asked the other party the question that concerned her most: "You, your eyes..."
As before, listening to the girl's struggling inquiry, on the opposite side, after reaching the position only ten meters away, keeping her face expressionless, Wynonna answered her again, and opened her mouth to tell her the cold truth. :
"The Eyes of Brahma, a pair of eyes that can make you die easily."
