Chapter 849 Dead Corner
Looking along Lin Muyun’s line of sight, in a remote corner, the color of the ground was darker than in other locations. As Jiang Cheng breathed, a strong smell began to float in the air. Sweet and fishy taste.
What’s on the ground is blood!
And that location, Jiang Cheng looked intently, was exactly where Yuan Xiaotian's body was found during the day.
"It's Xiaotian." Xia Qiang, who had not spoken for a long time, said softly.
Jiang Cheng guessed that he might have gone to see it.
Since Yuan Xiaotian’s body is still here, Li Mengyao’s body should also be in front of the safe passage outside.
Jiang Cheng suddenly had a strange feeling. According to his understanding of the mission, the corpses should have a refreshing mechanism like a game. Every time a new group of people came in, the corpses of the dead would be cleared away and replaced by a helpless force. The power of resistance.
It had been like this in previous missions. They were used to it, but this time, something seemed to have changed.
Raindrops began to fall outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. The rain was not heavy, at least not for the time being, but for Jiang Cheng and the others, it represented the beginning of real terror.
The rainy night murderer will naturally show up after it rains.
“I just went near Xiaotian’s body.” Xia Qiang looked towards Jiangcheng and said quickly, “According to my understanding of Xiaotian, he chose that place because he learned the lesson of Mengyao’s death after escaping. , intending to hide in this office area and delay time."
"This can be chosen by him. It can be seen from his position that his position is indeed relatively hidden, but his vision is limited."
Jiang Cheng listened for a while and became slightly impatient, "What exactly do you want to say?"
Now? Time was urgent and the murderer could appear at any time. He didn't have time to listen to Xia Qiang explain the whole story clearly.
"Xiaotian was approached from behind by that thing and then killed." Xia Qiang said bluntly: "Same as Li Mengyao."
Hearing this sentence, Jiang Cheng's eyes froze, and he suddenly thought of what happened in 19 When they were in the room, according to the description of the people waiting outside, a figure had been following them, and when they stopped, he stood behind one of them until the two shadows completely overlapped. Seen from behind, they looked like It's like a person.
Now everyone knows that the overlapping person should be the store owner.
After all, not long after they left, the strange oil painting appeared in the shop owner's room and killed him.
"This has something to do with the murderer's killing method." Jiang Cheng looked at Xia Qiang, "It can only kill from behind, or it needs to meet the condition of appearing behind it."
"This is just my guess, but I think it's at least half possible." Xia Qiang said.
Jiang Cheng thought for a moment and continued, "One more thing, there were no footsteps when the murderer moved. We didn't hear them in Room 19."
There were no footsteps, so be careful behind you. They can only summarize these two points for the time being.
At some point, as the rain outside the window became heavier and heavier, a light mist began to appear in the entire office area.
The mist was dark gray and looked strange, gradually surrounding them.
The surrounding visibility became very poor, only about 3 or 4 meters left, and large objects farther away were only blurred outlines.
"We can't get together." Xia Qiang said, even though he knew that in such an environment, separation meant farewell in a sense, but he had his own reasons and he had no choice. .
When she heard the word "separate", Lin Muwan immediately grabbed Lin Muyun's arm next to her and told everyone with practical actions that she was unwilling to separate from her brother.
On the other hand, Lin Muyun understood clearly. He stretched out his hand, slowly touched his sister Lin Muwan's head, and said softly in a soft voice: "Muwan, be obedient, and nothing will happen to us."
Xia Qiang takes back the treasure in the mist At this point, he had no time to pay attention to what the Lin brothers and sisters were thinking, and quickly explained to Jiang Cheng: "No matter what, at least one of Mr. Lin and Miss Lin must survive. This was determined before the operation started."
"Mr. Jiang, you and I go away separately. We each take one person with us. As for whether we can break out." He pursed his lips and did not say the next words.
"Miss Lin." Jiang Cheng looked at Lin Muwan and said in a voice that could not be distinguished: "Follow me."
"Please, Mr. Jiang." Lin Muyun seemed to also He was very reluctant to let go of his sister, but his reason told him that Captain Xia's arrangement was right.
Lin Muwan let go of her brother's arm, took out the notebook, and quickly wrote a line on it.
Jiang Cheng saw that it said "We can definitely go out!"
But Jiang Cheng and Xia Qiang had differences on how to break the situation.
Jiang Cheng advocated finding a way out of Yourun Building, while Xia Qiang advocated delaying time inside the building. After the rain stopped, the situation would naturally be over.
Neither of the two people can convince the other. After all, there are currently too few clues to support more detailed reasoning. Facing everything they are unfamiliar with, they can only use their lives to make trial and error.
Xia Qiang took Lin Muyun away first, and their figures quickly disappeared into the mist.
The only good news is that their mobile phones still work, and the two groups can communicate via mobile phones.
Jiang Cheng did not act rashly. He motioned to Lin Muwan to follow him, and the two of them first came to Yuan Xiaotian's body.
Through simple observation, it is indeed similar to what Xia Qiang said. Yuan Xiaotian huddled under the table. Even if he turned around, he could not see behind him through the baffle under the table.
That is the most terrifying blind spot.
According to the death scene that Team Leader Zhang simulated for them, someone approached him quietly, stood on the table where he was hiding, and then swung the ax downward with force, splitting Yuan Xiaotian's head in half.
Just when Jiang Cheng was about to take Lin Muwan away, suddenly, Lin Muwan tightened his grip on Jiang Cheng's arm. Through the contact, he could feel how violently Lin Muwan was shaking.
Jiang Cheng immediately squatted down, held his breath, and looked in the direction of Lin Muwan's line of sight.
There seemed to be something moving through the dark mist.
The ground shook slightly, and even the frequency had a stiff and dull feeling.
But he didn't hear any strange sounds, at least there were definitely no footsteps.
Jiang Cheng's eyes kept scanning through the fog, and it was not until more than 10 seconds passed that he suddenly stopped. He noticed that in front of him on his left, behind the fog, a tall and tall figure vaguely appeared. Large silhouette.
It's the guy I saw last night!
Jiang Cheng’s pupils suddenly narrowed.
It was only 6 or 7 meters away from him. Judging from the density of the fog, he shouldn't have been able to see it, but he did it.
What’s even more terrifying is that this time, one person and one ghost are almost face to face.
There is not much to cover in front of me. Even if I want to run now, it is too late.
But the next second, a scene that surprised everyone happened. The murderer turned around blankly, took stiff steps, and disappeared into the mist. (End of this chapter)
