Chapter 349: Gathering
Under the dim light, several moths kept hitting the glass lampshade. They danced in the light and shattered in the light, until their bodies fell weakly and disappeared into the darkness.
An Investigation Bureau boot crushed the moth's body, the light was distorted, and security personnel wearing blood rings walked out of the darkness.
Dark clouds gathered, and the night sky seemed to collapse.
Suppressed and silent, they moved forward silently.
"We're here." Zhuo Jun raised his hand and everyone stopped. They stood on Yashou Street to the east of Xiangshengyong Apartment and looked to the other side of the street.
The black vehicle with Xinhu license plates parked slowly on the other side of the street. Wan Jie opened the door and got out.
Lighting a cigarette, he leaned against the car window and asked casually: "What time is it?"
"There are still four minutes and forty-four seconds left." The team leader glanced at the watch on his wrist: "What an auspicious time."
Unlike the East District Security Special Team represented by Zhuo Jun, Wanjie and the others were all injured and seemed to have been fighting for the past few days.
Nodding, Wan Jie looked behind Zhuo Jun, his gaze resting on Bai Xiao.
At this time, Bai Xiao was completely different from before. His body was hidden in his uniform and he was holding the weird long knife in his hand.
"Have you eaten malicious meat? Those lunatics at Shumi Research Institute really dare to try anything." Wan Jie closed his eyes, as if waiting for the end to come.
The Kaitan players who had received the mission prompt and members of various forces in the vast sea gathered here, but they wisely avoided Wan Jie and Zhuo Jun.
"The Investigation Bureau sent very few people this time, but why are they all wearing blood rings? Aren't the investigators' communicators all black?"
"Shh, don't provoke them. They are a group of monsters that are neither humans nor ghosts. They are no longer alive."
The clouds kept pressing down, and the air was filled with water vapor, making it stuffy and breathless.
The lights on the street were dimming slowly. Until the time appointed by the General Bureau of Investigation, a car slowly drove to the door of Xiang Shengyong's apartment.
Pale hands stretched out of the car, and Lord Jūda threw a bunch of keys on the ground.
"Xiangshengyong Apartment and Changcheng Community, as well as nearby streets - Yashou Road, Shuangfu Road, Wanhe, etc., are all within the scope of this abnormal event. The various rewards prepared by the General Bureau of Investigation for this large-scale screening will not be used I will say more, as long as all participants can escape the abnormal event alive, they will be able to enter the Shumi Research Institute for selection. If they bring additional useful information, they will get more." Jingtuo God's driver held an umbrella. Come outside the car.
"The outbreak of this abnormal event is related to Lishan Hospital. After investigation, it can be determined that two big ghosts from Lishan Hospital escaped. Considering that there are newcomers among you, I do not force you to hunt ghosts this time. The screening is only to select those citizens with potential, so the assessment is based on the length of survival. "
"But you need to pay attention to two points. First, the ghost's ability is related to memory, and it may tamper with your memory. Don't even believe in yourself too much after you enter; second, the ghost's body is two clay sculptures. Destroying them will Abnormal incidents can be solved from the source.”
The driver said it very simply, as if the abnormal event was far less dangerous than Lishan Hospital and was just an ordinary test.
Some of the people gathered outside the apartment frowned in thought, while others looked excited and were already thinking about which cursed object to choose.
"If you are sure you want to participate in this screening, please come and choose a room key. Each key corresponds to a rental house. After entering the apartment building, the first thing you need to do is to find the room corresponding to the key and hide. Get in! Remember, this is very important!”
Picking up the large bunch of keys, the driver looked at everyone's face: "Each key can be used by up to five people. You can come and collect it now." The keys jingled against each other and made a sound.
The onlookers began to move forward. Many of them had already separated into groups in advance, and several people entered the apartment door with a key.
As if due to the large number of living people entering, the shadows began to spread, and lights came on in the dilapidated apartment building.
One after another, figures were swallowed up by the darkness. What was strange was that no one who entered the apartment compound looked back, as if no matter where they ran, they would eventually rush directly to the apartment building.
The Kaitan players who were still observing outside also started to take action. There were fewer and fewer keys. Wan Jie also put out his cigarette butts and led the team forward.
"Group of five, collect the key." Wan Jie glanced at Jingtuo God in the car: "It seems that the person you want to arrest is not here."
"Maybe they have already entered in advance." Lord Jingtuo took off his white gloves and glanced at the terrible wounds on the back of his hands: "They and we have no way out, right?"
"He is the one who forced you to have no way out. I heard that he can always be one step ahead of us and absorb all the seed citizens into Kaitan players. Although he does not have many followers, each one of them has great potential."
The driver was worried that Wan Jie would anger Lord Jingtuo, so he quickly gave Wan Jie a key.
Zhuo Jun and the others came over after the security personnel who had played the forbidden game left in groups.
Lord Jingtuo in the car has thrown away his white gloves. He is digging at the wound with his fingertips, using pain to relieve some emotions: "The photos given to you by the General Administration have all been sewn into your arms. Think about it first after entering the apartment. The method is to use the photos to restore the memory, and then act according to the original plan.”
God Jade's eyes were sinister and terrifying: "Keep them all in the abnormal event if you have the chance. I mean never let them come out."
"Understood." Zhuo Jun and several other people in charge nodded. They did not form teams according to a fixed number of people. Many of them held the keys alone and had one room per person.
"lets go."
The newly formed East District security team entered Xiang Shengyong's apartment. Bai Xiao followed the team at the end. He held a knife in his right hand and raised the key in his left hand to take a look.
There is nothing special about the copper key stained with black dirt. There is a series of numbers stuck on the key handle - 4343.
Stepping into the apartment compound, the malice in Bai Xiao's body suddenly surged into his brain uncontrollably. It screamed, but the sound seemed to be getting farther and farther away from Bai Xiao.
His vision became a little blurry. Bai Xiao remembered the house number 4343, grabbed the key and rushed to the apartment building.
Outside the apartment compound, citizens participating in the screening were arriving in a steady stream. Most of them just wanted to try their luck to see if they could get some benefits, but some people from the General Administration used their lives as bargaining chips.
Sitting in the car, Jing Tuo Shen's eyes became more and more indifferent. He touched the white ring on his wrist and opened the internal video communication: "How is the situation over there in Changcheng Community? Are the people from Class 13 here?"
There are two gathering locations for this screening, Xiangshengyong Apartment in the Old City and Changcheng Community in the East District.
"I haven't seen it yet." The man in the video communication was wearing the clothes of the director of the investigation branch. He had a Chinese character face, and his eyebrows were somewhat similar to that of his classmate Wang Jie.
