This ti, he rewound to the mont he had just stood up from the sofa.
According to Long-tongued Zhenzhen’s guess, this creature could possibly be invisible, otherwise, not only he couldn’t see it, even Long-tongued Zhenzhen who is also a strangeness couldn’t see it.
Actually, in Yan Junze’s opinion, shouldn’t strangenesses detect each other through sensing? Otherwise, where would the notion of a pecking order co from?
But looking at the current situation, the strangeness lurking in the darkroom was indeed not of ordinary form, even the perception was inaccurate. Even Long-tongued Zhenzhen could not sense it at all.
"Do I need to make use of a tool?"
At this mont, Yan Junze suddenly thought of sothing and turned to look at the glass showcase in the shop, which displayed four or five caras of different specifications.
The task hint might an he needed so kind of tool, and thinking about it, Yan Junze understood.
The task stated that this strangeness had a very special form, and Zhenzhen had already ntioned that it could possibly be invisible.
If that was the case, then things were getting interesting.
Yan Junze walked up to the glass showcase, took out his cell phone, turned on the flashlight function, and shone the light onto the caras inside the showcase.
He could see five caras neatly arranged there, but it was unclear whether they were broken and rely for display, or if they were actually functioning.
He should have asked Lin ng earlier.
Out of the five caras, three were traditional film caras, while the other two were digital. One of the digital ones was a point-and-shoot, and the other was a DSLR.
Holding onto the glass door of the showcase, Yan Junze gently pushed it aside.
The glass door wasn’t smooth, hesitating a few tis as he slid it, creating an unavoidable noise, so Yan Junze simply extended his other hand inside, clamping the glass with both hands, and lifted it up, finally opening it silently.
However, the noise he had made caused the sound that had been continuously coming from the darkroom to stop.
Yan Junze did not pay attention to that for the ti being and reached in to take out the two digital caras, while he gave no consideration to the other three that required film.
If it really was as he suspected, that photographing was necessary to see the strangeness, then using film caras was essentially useless.
Only with digital caras, which provided instant results, could one imdiately see the captured image, thus achieving the goal.
After taking the two digital caras in hand, Yan Junze weighed them in his palms and then hesitated for a mont.
Sothing felt off.
He imdiately put down the point-and-shoot, turned the DSLR around, opened the battery compartnt, and found it empty.
Not only was the battery missing, but there was also no mory card.
While Yan Junze was intently inspecting the cara, the door to the darkroom, which wasn’t fully closed to begin with, slowly opened a crack from the inside.
Nothing could be seen, but the heavy black curtain outside the door moved slightly.
Without a sound, not a whisper ca through.
After discovering the DSLR had no battery and no mory card, Yan Junze quickly put it down and picked up the point-and-shoot digital cara again.
Searching around, unlike the DSLR, he found the battery compartnt on the side of the cara, opened it, and found no battery, though a mory card was inserted inside.
It appeared these caras were just for show, and whether they worked or not was unknown.
Yan Junze put the point-and-shoot cara back and stood there, looking around. Read exclusive chapters at empire
In the showcase near the street side, there seed to be more caras and a large amount of albums, artistic photographs, etc., but it looked like the showcase was locked, and the key was probably with Lin ng or Gu Bai.
"If that doesn’t work, I’ll go to the bedroom and have them give the key,"
Yan Junze had this thought and was about to move when he suddenly realized he hadn’t heard a sound from the darkroom for quite so ti.
Whether it was the storefront, the bedroom, or the darkroom, it was all silent at this mont.
An ominous premonition enveloped his heart.
Just then, he felt sothing grab him again. It seed as if the hem of his shirt was tugged on; he quickly looked down.
In the store, although the light from the street lamps outside was minimal, his eyes, having adjusted to the darkness, could still make out the layout of the room and the objects nearby in this faint light.
However, when Yan Junze looked down, he saw nothing, but he did feel sothing clutching the waist of his clothing, and then he felt a touch on his shoulder.
At that mont, he didn’t dare to turn around. He just stood there, afraid to move carelessly.
Holding his clothing, it was as if an invisible hand rested on his shoulder. Could it be that the entity was standing right beside him, staring intently at him?
Yan Junze’s palms were sweaty, and the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end, sending a chill from his neck down his spine.
"What on earth is this thing’s form? It seems... it’s not just as simple as being invisible!"
Without moving, he pricked up his ears and listened for sounds from the right side, yet no noise ca.
Strangenesses are incapable of making breathing sounds.
But Yan Junze definitely felt sothing odd beside him, as if a transparent entity certainly stood by his side.
"What is this thing doing next to ? Admiring my charming profile?"
The next second, Yan Junze released Long-tongued Zhenzhen again.
"Strike the air on my right. There’s an invisible strangeness here."
Long-tongued Zhenzhen, initially sowhat befuddled upon appearing, didn’t think too much after hearing Yan Junze’s order. Her tongue shot out, striking the air to Yan Junze’s right.
Her tongue passed through the area and directly smashed the glass case holding the caras, creating a loud crashing sound.
At this mont, there was nothing to Yan Junze’s right.
"Gone! Or... was there never anything at all?"
Yan Junze had a strange thought.
Then he suddenly felt a coldness on the left side of his neck and, knowing it was bad, he imdiately activated the Rewind without waiting to instruct Long-tongued Zhenzhen to attack.
Although the Spaceti Atlas contained the "Automatic Rewind on Near-Death," the feature consud an astonishing amount of energy. As long as it wasn’t a situation where he couldn’t react in ti, it was better to perform a manual Rewind in critical situations.
He Rewound to the mont he had just stood up from the sofa.
This ti, Yan Junze didn’t move imdiately.
He stood there, continually pondering in his head. He faced attacks from that entity after two Rewinds. What was the reason?
Gu Bai had entered the darkroom to investigate after discovering anomalies as well, but he wasn’t attacked.
Thinking about it, the issue might have arisen when he released Long-tongued Zhenzhen.
The entity must have felt threatened; each ti, it began attacking him shortly after Long-tongued Zhenzhen appeared.
The problem was that Long-tongued Zhenzhen’s appearance hadn’t turned the tide for Yan Junze. So this ti, he decided not to release her again for help; it might only make things worse.
