If nothing else, just from Hollard's silence just now, you can tell that the stock of medicine is definitely enough. There is no problem in taking out at least 36 bottles. If it is not enough, then Hollard has made it clear long ago, and there is no need to show it. He showed a frown and a embarrassed expression. The reason why he put on an embarrassed expression was just to extort money.
Faced with naked extortion, most people have long been annoyed. However, only the executors are different. In other words, any problem that can be solved with money is not a problem in the eyes of the executors. Therefore, it is natural that after figuring out the above reasons, Tang Meng turned around again, and Cheng Ying took out the check and put it on the table again. However, the difference from the previous time was that this time, before Tang Meng could say anything, Cheng Ying rushed to see the check. Hollard, whose eyes flashed subconsciously, said: "The maximum amount of this check is US$50,000. Is this enough to keep the hospital alive?"
The cold tone is enough to prove that Cheng Ying is already angry and extremely unhappy with Hollard's greed. Yes, even if the executor is indeed not short of money, she can't tolerate repeated extortion. In fact, the person who just spoke At that time, Cheng Ying had already made up her mind. If Hollard dared to continue to be greedy, she would still provide the money. After all, this drug that can eliminate dreams is too important to the execution team, but she would sentence him to death afterwards. , we will kill this guy named Hollard tonight!
Fortunately, the expected situation did not happen in the end. I don’t know whether it was because the amount was enough this time or because he was intimidated by Cheng Ying’s momentum. After getting another large check with a large amount, Hollard finally showed a satisfied smile. , nodded with satisfaction, got up from his seat, and walked towards the corner refrigerator. He reached out and opened the refrigerator, and saw that it was full of bottles. They all looked like dream elimination potions, and the number was about a hundred!
Just when Tang Meng and Cheng Ying were secretly sighing, Hollard had also completed his work and put the entire 36 bottles of medicine into a small metal box. Tang Meng instinctively went over to check. Soon, after confirming and After counting the number of medicines, Tang Meng politely thanked Hollard: "Mr. Dean, thank you very much for your help."
Finally getting the special potion he had dreamed of, Tang Meng took a long breath. After thanking Hollard, Tang Meng took the lead and left, followed closely by Cheng Ying, and Max, who was just here to act as a middleman, naturally After completing the task, he left with the two women. Before going out, he looked at Hollard, who had made a lot of money today, with envious eyes. It was obvious that if nothing unexpected happened, he would secretly discuss with Hollard tonight. Money distribution problem.
The specific distribution method is definitely not the concern of the executor, and Tang Meng and Cheng Ying, who successfully obtained the items they wanted, returned to the hotel as soon as they obtained the potion. Yes, after obtaining enough for the execution team to consume After taking the potion at the end of the mission, for now, whether it is Tang Meng or Cheng Ying, both women are excited. As long as the potion is there, Freddy cannot threaten the team, at least he cannot secretly invade everyone while the executor is sleeping. Dreams, being unable to invade dreams represents safety, absolute safety in the true sense!
……………
When Tang Meng and Cheng Ying returned to the hotel with a sufficient amount of potions, the executors immediately boiled. Whether they were seniors or newcomers, everyone showed expressions of relief. It was like a group of drowning people who struggled for a long time and finally caught life. Like straw, the joy shown is real. After all, everyone knows that potions can eliminate dreams. That is to say, as long as these potions are there, let alone others, at least the executor no longer has to worry about the threat of Freddy's dreams. Without the threat, they have a good chance of persisting until the end of the mission.
Including the newcomers, there are currently 12 executors. So, after the potions were distributed in three bottles per person, everyone returned to their rooms happily with the life-saving potions in hand.
On the third day of the supernatural mission, the time was 22:07 in the middle of the night.
Room 205 on the 2nd floor of the hotel.
If predictions are made based on the current time, in addition to He Fei who is doomed to sleep, it stands to reason that Zhao Ping and Peng Hu should also sleep. The prediction is so, but in reality the two of them are still awake and not sleeping. It is not because they don't want to sleep, but There were more people in the room. At this moment, staring at the bottles of potions on the coffee table, Zhao Ping looked indifferent and said nothing for a long time. However, Peng Hu didn't have the time to observe the potions. Anyway, the potions couldn't escape on their own, so you couldn't keep a close eye on them. It was completely meaningless, so he turned to Tang Meng and Cheng Yinghu, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, and asked: "Hey, Cheng Ying, and Miss Tang Meng, it's getting late, why are you two here without sleeping? You’re here when you come, why don’t you all say anything?”
Yes, it was obviously late at night, but just two minutes ago, or just when Peng Hu was about to take the potion and get ready to sleep, there was a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he found that the people who came were Cheng Ying and Tang Meng.
Since he really didn't understand the specific meaning of the two women's visit late at night, as an honest man who was very self-aware, Peng Hu originally planned to ask Zhao Ping to answer the call. Unexpectedly, Zhao Zai saw that the two women didn't even fart and just sat down. Cheng Ying and Tang Meng were pretending to be mute on the sofa, and Cheng Ying and Tang Meng also sat down silently. Seeing this, the bald man suddenly felt confused. He just touched his hairless head and looked around, sometimes looking at the mute. Zhao Ping glanced at the two women who were silent together from time to time. Seeing this, the bald man felt that his brain was a little insufficient. Words such as 'pretending to be cool' or 'pretending to be sophisticated' instinctively popped up in his mind. At this time He finally missed He Fei a little bit, and He Fei was better. He never pretended, and he was straightforward. He always pointed out things directly. How could the three people in front of him not say anything when something happened, but just sit there without saying a word? He was the most confused one. Thinking of this, the bald man became more and more unhappy and had no choice but to ask for the reason first.
Faced with Peng Hu's head-scratching inquiry, Zhao Ping and Cheng Ying chose to ignore it as expected, which made the bald man's teeth itch with anger. Fortunately, Tang Meng gave Peng Hu face and asked first when he saw the bald man's suspicious face. Tang Meng couldn't help but He frowned and replied: "Brother Peng, don't worry. We must have something to do here, but the matter is a bit complicated and cannot be easily explained in a few sentences."
"No, maybe the matter is not as complicated as you said. In fact, it is just a guess."
No reason, no reason. As soon as Tang Meng finished speaking, before the increasingly confused Peng Hu could respond, across from him, Zhao Ping, who had been staring at the potion in silence for a long time, suddenly spoke. After hearing this, he didn’t mention it for the time being. What about Peng Hu? Cheng Ying and Tang Meng were all startled. Then Cheng Ying turned to Zhao Ping and asked tentatively: "Did you also think of this?"
"Well, I have thought about it, and maybe I have even thought more deeply than you." Faced with Cheng Ying's tentative inquiry, the man with glasses on the opposite side nodded and admitted without humility. It was only then that Zhao Ping gave him a hand. The next moment the bridge of nose glasses opened the conversation, he turned back to Cheng Ying and the two girls and said, "As expected, the purpose of you two coming to me this time is to discuss whether Freddy can appear in reality, right?"
As the saying goes, take one step and see three steps. In fact, smart people always have many more levels of thinking than ordinary people. The more they think, the more worries they will naturally have. Therefore, after getting the dream elimination potion that can avoid dreaming, others have relaxed. , but Cheng Ying and Tang Meng, who had always been careful, did not relax completely. Instead, they instinctively thought of other questions, and the question was just as Zhao Ping said just now, whether Freddy has a real body, or whether Freddy will be in reality. Appear in!
"According to the plot of the original movie "A Nightmare on Elm Street", first of all, it is certain that Freddy has an entity. The reason is that Freddy's way of existence is extremely special, and he is a combination of human and ghost. If he is a ghost, he It is true that he can do many things that humans cannot do like an ethereal spirit. He can even invade human dreams and kill people in the dream world. Even though he is a human, he himself has an entity, and this entity is different from the normal one. Human beings are basically the same. To put it bluntly, it can be understood that Freddy is no different from ordinary people in reality. His physical strength and speed are the same as ordinary people, and he will still bleed or even die after being injured. Only It just has the feature of resurrection after death. It can be said that Freddy is a combination of extremely strong and extremely weak. The extremely strong refers to the dream world, and the extremely weak refers to the real world."
At this moment, seeing Zhao Ping pointing out the purpose of the two women's visit, and Cheng Ying nodding beside him, Tang Meng began to analyze the characteristics of Freddy's existence. The reason why he specifically talked about and analyzed Freddy was because the two women smelled a new crisis. , after officially obtaining the potion that can be immune to dreams, he was instinctively worried that Freddy would change his strategy. This is certain and reasonable. Since Freddy has listed the executioner as a must-kill prey, he will not let the execution go easily. The executor will never be helpless just because the executor is not dreaming. Once Freddy finds that he cannot invade the executor's dream, then with Fred's cunning character, he will most likely change his strategy. As for the specific strategy to be adopted, it is still unclear. It was impossible to be sure, but Cheng Ying believed that Fred was most likely to launch the attack in reality.
In order to guess Freddy's subsequent strategy as much as possible, Zhao Ping, who was smarter than the two of them, naturally became an excellent candidate for discussion. So, Yang Xiaohui was left to take care of Kong Ling, and the two women left the room and came to where Zhao Ping lived. 205 guest rooms.
At the same time, just as Cheng Yingtang Meng was discussing issues with Zhao Ping, who had the same concerns, there was room 204 next door.
"Hey, Mr. Han, are you sure you can stop dreaming 100% after drinking this?"
"Aren't you talking nonsense? If it didn't work, senior people wouldn't go to the small town hospital to get this thing. What's more, Yang Xiaohui took it last night. As a result, she didn't dream all night, and Yang Xiaohui herself was safe and sound. Things, aren’t these enough proofs?”
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved. I can finally sleep with peace of mind."
"What? Go to sleep with peace of mind? Have you forgotten Captain Zhao's previous warning? He said that even if there is medicine, we must still keep vigil."
"Okay, no problem. How about we follow the old rules? You stay up half the night and I'll stay up the rest."
Different from the depression and tension in the first two days, Tian Guohua, who was originally frightened every night, was completely relaxed after receiving the potion that could eliminate dreams. Han Xuedian, who lived in the same room, was also almost calm and no longer as before. Suppressing the tension, just like now, staring at the bottles of potions placed on the bedside table, the two discussed Zheng Huan. It was not until Han Xuedian made the decision that the potions were effective that Tian Guohua smiled with satisfaction and was about to go to bed. Unexpectedly, Han Xuedian, who was supposed to be keeping vigil, was He suddenly shook his head to stop him: "Wait, don't go to bed just yet. I'm a little hungry right now. Well, how about this? I'll go to the restaurant downstairs to have some supper first, and I'll watch the first shift when I get back. "
While Han Xuedian and Tian Guohua were discussing the late night snack issue, Room 206.
In the bedroom, Yang Xiaohui was staring excitedly at the bottles of potions on the bedside table. This was not because she was excited, but because she knew that these potions could save lives. She believed in the miraculous effects of the potions even more than Tian Guohua, who was also a newcomer. The reason was that as early as She had experienced it personally last night. Although the feeling of emptiness of a night without dreams was uncomfortable, she did not dream last night. It was precisely because she had experienced it personally that when she faced the potion again, Yang Xiaohui It was a lie to say that she was unhappy. She ignored Kong Ling who had been in a coma for a long time since they met on the bed. Yang Xiaohui reached out and picked up a bottle of medicine, then unscrewed the bottle and drank it.
After drinking the potion, the sense of security that had been enhanced by the potion increased again, and she was about to go to bed like last night. However, after realizing that there was only herself and the unconscious Kong Ling in the room, Yang Xiaohui hesitated for a moment, and finally did not. Instead of going to bed, he headed straight to the living room.
Cheng Ying and Tang Meng went out 10 minutes ago, saying that they were going to the next door room 205 to discuss something with Zhao Ping. Before leaving, Cheng Ying specifically told Yang Xiaohui not to sleep, but to wait for them to come back. When they came back, Cheng Ying would take turns keeping vigil. Although Ying gave the advice, Yang Xiaohui didn't take it seriously. In her eyes, Cheng Ying's advice was unnecessary and overly cautious. Yes, the potion was already in hand anyway, so what's the point of taking turns to keep vigil? Of course I thought so, but in reality Yang Xiaohui still didn't dare to defy Cheng Ying openly. In addition, Cheng Ying Tangmeng wouldn't come back for a long time. In order to resist the sleepiness that got worse due to the late time, Yang Xiaohui planned to take a shower first. It's time for Cheng Ying and the others to come back. Wouldn't it be more comfortable to sleep then?
Thinking of this, Yang Xiaohui walked to the bathroom without hesitation.
The hotel itself is only a small town-level hotel. Although the guest rooms are well-equipped, the scale is not comparable to that of large hotels in the city, and the environment is a bit crude. The bathroom and toilet are connected together, with only a middle partition. Facing the small door, the outside is the toilet, and the inside is the bathroom. She went to the toilet first, and after closing the door, Yang Xiaohui did not go into the bathroom immediately, but first looked at the mirror next to her. At this moment, looking at herself in the mirror, Yang Xiaohui She couldn't help but sigh secretly. Although she thought she had a pretty good figure, her appearance was far below that of the senior female named Cheng Ying. The two were not at the same level in terms of appearance. Even the woman named Tang Meng The senior people are also much prettier than me. This is really irritating. They are both women, so why are they so much prettier than me? .
It is often said that women are very magical creatures, and they will occasionally think about something if they are absolutely safe. Although this statement has never been reflected in Cheng Yingtangmeng, it is fully demonstrated in Yang Xiaohui. , obviously planning to take a shower, but inexplicably looked in the mirror during the process, and then compared the appearance with Cheng Yingtangmeng, stared at the mirror for a moment, Yang Xiaohui lowered her head and sighed, after sighing, she was about to walk in Bathroom, but just as she raised her head, Yang Xiaohui suddenly saw something. Through the mirror in front of her, she saw a shadow behind her, and a dark thing passed quickly behind her!
"Ah, who!?"
Yang Xiaohui was startled by the sudden appearance of a black shadow. She trembled first, and then turned around in panic. However, when she looked back, she found that there was nothing behind her. Where was the dark shadow? .
"Gudu."
Because she really couldn't figure out whether she was seeing a trick or whether the shadow was real, she stared at it for a long time. After confirming that she was the only one in the entire bathroom, she swallowed. Yang Xiaohui instinctively looked at the bathroom next to her, and at the same time raised her arm to push. door.
squeak.
With a soft opening of the door, the bathroom door was slowly pushed open, and Yang Xiaohui carefully observed the bathroom.
result……
No, there was still nothing. The bathroom, which was not much bigger than the toilet, was basically empty. Except for the necessary shower equipment and a single bathtub, there was nothing in it.
"call!"
Seeing this scene, she exhaled instinctively. Yang Xiaohui, who was quite nervous just now, was completely relieved. Then she walked into the bathroom and started to take off her clothes, making it clear that she would continue to take a bath. The reason why Yang Xiaohui dared to go through a wave of unknown things. She continued to take a shower after the fake abnormality, because she already knew that the threat of this supernatural mission was Freddy, an evil dream demon who could kill people in dreams. It was obvious that she was undoubtedly awake at the moment. Once he is awake, the dream demon cannot threaten him. In addition, he has taken the dream elimination potion in advance. In a sense, he is absolutely safe now and cannot be in danger. As for the mass that just robbed him. The black shadow that passed? Maybe I was really blinded, after all, I had been highly nervous in the past two days.
Getting back to the topic, eliminating all the distracting thoughts in her mind, with her naked white body, Yang Xiaohui turned on the device and started to drain the water. While the warm water was pouring into the bathtub, she stood under the shower and washed her body. As the warm water flowed across her skin, Yang Xiaohui became more and more relaxed. .
After a while, the bathtub was filled with water, and Yang Xiaohui also finished washing her hair. So, after pouring some body wash to moisturize the skin, the woman stepped into the bathtub.
Blah, blah, blah.
Lying on her back in a single bathtub with a suitable water temperature, Yang Xiaohui slowly raised her hands to wash her body. Yes, when she was sure that she was absolutely safe, she was now so comfortable and comfortable that she couldn't help but hum a song.
The above description is absolutely true in Yang Xiaohui's personal opinion, but...
At this moment, if someone looks closely from top to bottom from an overhead perspective and observes Yang Xiaohui taking a comfortable bath in the bathtub below, then they will see a strange scene that can make anyone's hair stand on end:
In the bathtub, where Yang Xiaohui's legs were soaked in the water, black appeared under the water, a dark mass with no specific shape!
The black color gradually became clearer in the bathtub, but due to the angle of view, Yang Xiaohui did not see the black color. She was still taking a leisurely bath in the bathtub at a suitable temperature, enjoying herself. It was precisely because she had not noticed it from beginning to end, so... …
Gululu.
Then, as time passed, the black color began to expand, getting bigger and bigger. Then, under the water between Yang Xiaohui's legs, with a burst of tiny bubbles, a human hand slowly stretched out from the water, and a sharp claw wearing an iron glove appeared. This is a leisurely way to protrude out of the water! ! !
Although it was scary enough to find a human hand in the bathtub with a depth of only half a meter, what was strange was that the human hand did not attack immediately. It did not attack Yang Xiaohui as soon as it came out of the water. Instead, it turned around and started groping. Finally, Iron His claws touched the woman and slowly stroked Yang Xiaohui's beautiful white thighs.
"ah!".
Since human hands are already wearing gloves, and the gloves are all made of metal, as expected, when the iron claws touched the skin of her thighs, Yang Xiaohui, who was humming happily, instantly trembled and her expression changed drastically! First, Sensitive screamed, and then he looked at his legs in panic!
only……
It was true that when she noticed something strange, she immediately looked at her legs, but when she really looked at the part of the bathtub where her legs were, she found nothing? There was nothing near her legs in her sight. There was nothing but water. Not to mention the cold metal objects she felt, there was not even half a piece of plastic. After confirming that there was no problem with the bathtub, Yang Xiaohui turned her head and scanned the room. The room was also the same as the bathtub. Totally normal, no different from earlier.
Although Yang Xiaohui is confused at the moment, she is not crazy enough to continue taking a bath when she clearly realizes that something is wrong, not to mention that this wrongness is more real than the black shadow she just witnessed! Therefore, she was frightened, and became frightened after confirming that something was indeed touching her just now! Her intuition gave a further warning, warning her that there was a problem here and that she was no longer a place to stay for a long time. Following the warning of her intuition, Yang Xiaohui moved. She did not plan to continue taking a bath, but wanted to get up and leave the bathroom immediately!
There is nothing wrong with the intuitive warning, and it is equally correct to choose to leave. Unfortunately, it seems too late to leave now...
Some people died, but not completely...
