Chapter 86 Curse
“Something’s not right...”
Although Rody only lived in this bachelor apartment for less than two days, even though all the furniture was arranged the same, he But I can intuitively detect an intuitive sense of strangeness, as if this is not an apartment.
The most important thing is that the lights in the entire house are much dimmer than before going to bed.
Luo Di was not in a hurry, but immediately reached into the zipper opening of the backpack and confirmed that the squad leader was still inside.
But the zombie knife that should have been placed with the squad leader was missing.
Rody's memory is impeccable. He definitely put the two things together in his backpack. If there is danger, he can take out the knife at any time.
"The knife is gone, but the squad leader is still there?"
Luo Di searched around the house but couldn't find the zombie knife, but he also vaguely guessed the general situation.
Since there were no abnormalities or clues in the house, he quickly walked to the apartment door, unlocked it and pushed it open.
According to the "Corner Law", the entire city needs to be kept brightly lit at all times. Even if the door is opened at night, strong lights will immediately cover it.
But there were no dazzling lights in front of us, just thick fog.
The thick fog even spread to the entire corridor of the apartment, with visibility no more than ten meters.
Due to the unique national conditions, this level of thick fog is impossible to appear in urban areas.
The Meteorological Bureau can predict in advance and use scientific means to intervene in dense fog weather. At least in the eighteen years that Roddy lived, Jupiter City has never had fog.
But that's not all the weirdness.
Fragments of paper and copper coins are scattered in the corridors of the apartment, and the door of every house has a crooked or incomplete word "囍" on it.
With all these abnormalities, combined with Luo Di’s investigation of the missing young man, we have been able to draw some effective conclusions.
『This is not reality.
Since I touched the red envelope this morning, something must have spread inside me. And [sleeping] is a turning point, or a contact point, that can completely activate the substance that pervades my body.
The place I am currently in, or the place where my consciousness is located, should be a [special dream] created by the pseudo-person, and even incorporates the characteristics of a corner-like space, so it cannot be regarded as an ordinary dream.
It is not easy to wake up.
If I die in a dream, I will most likely disappear like the first four young people.
The zombie knife is not in the backpack and because I am in a dream, I cannot bring the physical props in, but why...』
Luo Di opened the zipper again to check and confirmed that "Squad Leader" "It's right inside.
"Is it because of the pituitary gland that we entered the dream together? Zombie Knife also has a pituitary gland structure, why didn't he come with it? 』
I don’t know why,
Although it was the first time for Luo Di to encounter this kind of thing, and he even lost his important weapon, he didn’t feel too nervous or uncomfortable. A momentary smile flashed across his face.
And this situation is what he wanted to achieve. He wanted to enter the game as a "victim" from the beginning.
The presence or absence of the knife does not have much impact.
Roddy only had to make sure of one thing. He closed his eyes gently and put his tongue against the roof of his mouth.
Tap!
At the same time as the rattling sound came out, a familiar hell symbol immediately appeared in the depths of Rody's memory, and a burning heat filled his body, proving that his connection with hell was not affected at all.
However, he does not use this power directly now, he only needs to determine the problem of connection stability.
“It’s better to bring a knife. Without a knife on your body, I always feel like something is missing.”
Return to the kitchen of the apartment and take out the largest kitchen knife. Only by holding the handle tightly can you have the most intuitive sense of involvement. Otherwise, it will be difficult to mobilize the emotion of killing.
But when Luo Di picked up the kitchen knife, he vaguely felt something was wrong with his body. He felt that the kitchen knife was much heavier than usual.
He opened his palms and looked at his hands carefully. His arms seemed to have become thinner.
[Pluto City, Investigation Branch, Autopsy Room]
Four male corpses whose appearance is difficult to distinguish, the skin surface is covered with marble lines, and the overall body is pale white, are arranged at regular intervals. On the dissecting table.
Marco Rubio, the trainee investigator responsible for receiving Roddy and the youngest in the branch, is here.
In addition, there is Marco's teacher, the senior investigator responsible for his "growth" during his probationary period. He is holding a cigar and the Italians have a mafia feel in both appearance and clothing. "Mr. Comeau, is this really good?
According to the information provided by Jupiter City, Mr. Di has never dealt with "cursed" incidents. Wouldn't it be a good idea to deliberately withhold information like we did and let him get into the game on his own?
Furthermore, his mental state is not stable, and he is more likely to be fully eroded by this spiritual curse.
He may even become more dangerous than the event itself. "
Smoke rings blew out,
Como looked at the four skinny mummies in front of him with almost no fleshy structure, and said softly:
"I can see the information. .
A young man who can survive the "No. 4 Middle School Incident", achieve "world connection" under extreme conditions, and even kill a perfect dummy, such a person is fully qualified to go to the capital and contribute to the world. Bureau does things.
But something went wrong in his mind, and this mistake would bring unpredictable risks.
The abnormal events specially arranged for him this time, as well as the incomplete clues deliberately provided, were all arranged by the bureau.
If he becomes insane due to such an ordinary curse incident, then he cannot be used by us, let alone the country. Once he goes to the real corner, he will be incited to rebel. It is also important to clear out such hidden dangers in advance. Not a bad thing.
But if he can independently solve this kind of curse-like incident that targets the spiritual level, it is enough to show that his mental condition is no longer a problem, and it is in line with the strength that a connector should have.
In addition, we can also take the opportunity for him to establish contact with our bureau. ”
"The teacher is really strict. I don't know how the guy's progress is. It's very difficult to kill a remotely cursed dummy alone."
......
[Youth Apartment】
Luo Di stepped on the passage covered with paper money and came to the elevator of the apartment. He was going to go downstairs to check the situation.
Ding!
When the elevator door opened, Luo Di's body trembled slightly, and he almost slashed out with a kitchen knife.
There were four young men crowded inside the car, with their heads lowered, gloomy expressions and completely dilated pupils. They were the four missing young men whom Luo Di had seen the video tape.
Everyone is indeed handsome,
Not only that, they are also wearing the groom's clothes. Although there are slight differences, they are all red-themed.
The four young men just stood like this, with no intuitive tendency to attack Roddy.
However, one of them kept his index finger on the door button and waited quietly, as if they were here to meet Rody, the "fifth person."
As long as he doesn't go up, they will wait like this.
Rody seemed to be pulled by something, or he wanted to see the existence behind the scenes faster, so he walked into the car with a blank look.
The young man next to him also immediately moved his finger, sliding it on the cold elevator button, moving upwards, and finally touching the button at the top.
【33】
Luo Di clearly remembered that when he first took the elevator, the highest level was only the 32nd floor.
However, he did not forcefully escape, and just followed the four people to the so-called top floor.
Ding!
The elevator that was opened again went directly to the rooftop area of the entire apartment.
The thick fog that permeated the entire apartment did not spread here, but stayed in the edge area,
< br>
Luo Di also followed the four young men dressed as grooms and walked out of the car. When he stepped onto the rooftop, a dark wind mixed with paper coins blew in his face.
After a short period of blocking the view,
there were five more wooden benches on the open rooftop, as well as a film projector placed behind the wooden benches, and a large piece of leather made of unknown materials. The curtain was drawn up.
The four young people quickly took their seats in a trot, and the middle seat was also vacated.
The movie is about to start.
When Roddy's attention was attracted by this scene, the elevator behind him had long disappeared, and there was no exit on the entire rooftop.
Moreover, he could clearly feel that something was being lost from his body.
During the process of taking the elevator to the rooftop, Roddy's weight had already dropped by 6kg.
