Chapter 487: Chapter 473 The Pursued
[Sin City – Real Death Ga Company]
The man in the suit, with a sack over his head, was walking among the mansions painted with question marks,
an unfathomable secret passage,
at the end of which lay a mysterious room,
a room only he could reach.
The cold light provided a ghastly whiteness to the room,
which was set up like a darkroom for developing photos. Various single photos of “people” were hung by thin lines on the wall, and under the cold light, each photo’s surface would reveal a fluorescent green question mark.
Among them were two brand new photos, freshly developed,
corresponding to two young n,
one with black hair, tough, wearing a trench coat, with the moon as a backdrop.
The other, blond, frail, in a turtleneck sweater, with sothing seemingly floating behind him.
The corners of their photos were marked with the sa serial number.
Under the current cold light, the question marks on the two photos turned a shade of yellow, and before long, shifted to red.
After confirming without error, the question mark on the sack turned into a sideways smile.
Mr. Question Mark got up quickly and headed towards the villa’s hall, where the First Generation Zombie – Jia Wen was already waiting.
“Accompany on a trip, it should take a day or two.”
“Okay.”
However, the two who said they would head out did not leave the main door, but rather walked towards another room in the villa.
[Door Room]
As the na implies,
a large number of doors with different structures are scattered here, with doors covering both the floor and the ceiling.
Different structures, different materials, different locks.
Mr. Question Mark ca to an iron gate painted with red paint, took out a rubber-structured key from the sack.
Inserted it into the iron gate,
and twisted it open.
Buzz!
Various colored lights shot out from outside the door, accompanied by cheerful laughter.
The amusent park lay right before them.
“Oh! What a huge amusent park, so much thought went into this~ to use such facilities to obscure fear.
To think just one of the Eight Evil People secured such a large venue and gathered so many people, not an easy feat.”
Mr. Question Mark did not buy a ticket to enter but instead drew a special-structured question mark on himself and Jia Wen, then strode in casually.
Neither ticket inspectors nor tourists could see the two of them,
they entered the center circus tent without needing any points,
gazing at the cellar entrance continuously emanating a sense of fear.
“Real fear? No wonder the photos turned red.”
Mr. Question Mark took the initiative to try and pull open the cellar door, only to find it wouldn’t budge! As if countless arms were exerting force from behind the door.
Even when he twisted his arm into a spring structure, it remained difficult to open, until Jia Wen also joined in,
Snap!
The cellar door of special material unexpectedly broke in the middle, the intense shockwave causing the circus tent to shake violently, a strong tremor felt throughout the amusent park.
Stepping down the stairs.
Even Mr. Question Mark slowed his pace, as if sothing existed below that could threaten him.
The television screen was playing surveillance footage switching among the streets and alleys of Wenslim City.
Overlapping with the scenes, dense fog was continuously leaking from below the television, filling the basent, limiting visibility to less than five ters.
As Mr. Question Mark ca into contact with the fog, his body hesitated slightly, but he continued onward.
Jia Wen followed, his expression grave, as if he’d seen sothing in the fog, sothing he most wished not to see.
In front of the television,
eight participants remained “watching” with various postures, with their eyes severely dry from not blinking for extended periods.
Each of them exhibited a state of bleeding from the seven orifices, their vitality being slowly siphoned away.
Yet, Mr. Question Mark showed no concern for these people’s physical state, instead taking out a cara to snap a group photo of them.
Buzz!
Suddenly,
the television scene was forcibly interrupted, ear-piercing noise reverberated in the basent, and Mr. Question Mark sensed a strong scent of danger, swiftly positioning Jia Wen before him.
The static noise on the television screen quickly disappeared, and the picture stabilized once more.
Only now, it no longer displayed the street surveillance of Wenslim City,
but rather half a human face, or perhaps a close-up of a mouth.
With each breath, white mist exhaled, corresponding to the release of fog.
The lips parted, and as if to speak, the voice directly appeared in the minds of the two invaders.
Hearing this, Mr. Question Mark quickly bent over to apologize and pulled Jia Wen out of the basent.
He even found a tube of question mark-branded glue to re-seal the cracked cellar door.
“Phew…No wonder these two managed to win double championships here; their luck is off the charts! Just after finishing my ga, they encounter such an opportunity.
If they survive, they might beco potential threats to .”
“Boss, should we go back?”
“Go back for what? Even though we can’t stay and watch the process, we can still wait for the results. Jia Wen, have you ever ridden a roller coaster?”
“I did before.”
“How fortunate, it seems like you had loving parents when you were human. Co with to try it; I haven’t really experienced it.”
“Sure, boss.”
…
[The Next Day]
Ti – 9:40
Weather – Thick fog with light rain
Location – Wenslim City, Skull Steakhouse
A man and a woman sat across from each other, with two glasses of iced cola in front, and an iron bucket on the floor.
Mia sipped her soda and said with a smile:
“It seems like, in reality, we should be enemies, right? Considering my personality and monstrous nature, it’s unlikely for to befriend a human.
And Luo Di, you are a rare ‘Connector.’
I wonder why two killers with different positions like us got involved in this event, and even accidentally beca allies.
Ah~ What should we do? Could it be, in reality, I really killed your whole family?
Ugh! Did I say sothing wrong?”
Luo Di held his chin with both hands, looking sideways at the raindrops on the restaurant’s glass window, and at his parents and sister occasionally pressing against the glass as they lingered in the fog.
“It probably wasn’t you.”
“Why? I’m a murderer, quite suspicious!”
“I can sowhat feel, even if my mory is erased, the most fundantal feelings remain. I should feel disgust or other negative emotions towards you.
Moreover, even if it was you, that’s sothing to consider once we leave here, then I will naturally kill you.”
Mia imdiately bead with a happy smile, “That’s great, so Luo Di, you’re still planning to renew our partnership? Shall we continue to act together in this city?”
“Mm.”
After spending ti together yesterday, Luo Di made a judgnt. As a teammate, Mia was quite reliable, and their coordination was becoming more seamless.
Moreover, facing the unknown fear lurking here, cooperation is the optimal solution, acting alone is too dangerous.
“Where do we go next? I absolutely don’t want to go outside…”
Mia could see her aged self standing at the shop’s entrance, constantly licking the glass with her tongue, and scratching it with her nails creating sounds.
“Let’s continue through the sewers… the things below no longer pose a threat.”
“Huh? How can you be sure?”
“The fact that I ca out alive is the best proof… as long as we don’t disturb that death, keep quiet, I basically figured out the situation below.
The sewer connects all city areas, we can move below to avoid the fog’s effect, let’s first check the city center.”
“Alright, I trust you.”
Mia was extrely fearful of that death, decay was simply her nesis.
Just as they were about to get up to return to the sewer from the back door.
Boom!
A violent explosion ca from outside the door, the sound source seed to be less than two hundred ters away, as if soone was fighting.
Soon after, sothing huge and heavy was quickly approaching.
Mia and Luo Di imdiately drew their weapons,
A huge figure quickly charged out from the fog,
Bam!
Instead of opening the door, it directly shattered the glass door of the steakhouse.
The newcor was the burly man from the train who had a special glance towards won – Douglas. One of his arms was missing, as if sothing had ripped it off directly.
He stumbled into the store on fifty-size shoes, staring intensely at the two with a face covered in oozing blisters.
His mouth gradually opened,
seemingly wanting to say sothing.
“Help…”
Just after shouting half a word, Douglas suddenly froze. The words he was about to say were swallowed back, and sothing crawled out of his mouth.
A hand,
but not quite a hand, though it had five fingers, the skin, color, and joints were all off.
It clutched his upper and lower jaw, pulling his mouth open.
It seed to want to crawl out,
It seed to want to tear Douglas open from the inside.
