Reward Lantern
"What?!" Peggy's whole face tightened up out of fear and confusion, looking very weird.
Xie Zuo picked his nose and said, "I said the one named Olive is dead and is right next to her."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"You didn't even ask me!"
Peggy took a deep breath: "Okay! Where is she now? Do you remember the direction? Take me to see her."
"Ha!!" Jie Zuo seemed to be greatly insulted, "Are you looking down on me? Not to mention in the fog, even in the deep sea trench, I have never lost my way! Don't you know that I have the title of human compass?
"
Peggy: "I don't know what the compass you are talking about is, but it doesn't matter. You mean you still remember the direction, right? Then please lead the way!"
Jie Zuo wanted to say something more, but Peggy didn't give him a chance. He pulled him forward directly. Peggy noticed this companion who suddenly appeared. There seemed to be something wrong with his brain. It was best not to communicate too much - otherwise it would be easy.
Make yourself angry.
Jie Zuo curled his lips without saying anything, and took Peggy towards the place where he just came.
In ten minutes, Xie Zuo took Peggy to the place where he had just found the female body.
The female corpse was still lying on the ground quietly. "No... How could Olive do this? How could this happen?" Peggy seemed to have collapsed, kneeling on the ground and crying.
"Well! That's what happened when I found her. Her money was also taken away. She must have been robbed on the road! Haha... the security in this place is really bad." After finishing speaking, Xie Zuo shook his head with a guilty look on his face.
Twist away.
"Is it you!!! Did you kill Olive?"
"What?" Jie Zuo looked at Peggy, who was pointing at him ferociously, with a puzzled look on his face.
"It must be you. Most people come to this ghost place and can't tell the direction in such a heavy fog. I've been observing you just now. You didn't have any doubts when you brought me here. If you weren't someone familiar with this place, how could you
It can also help me find the path I just walked in the heavy fog."
"Wow! Wonderful reasoning, Peggy, I would like to call you the strongest." After saying this, his mood changed and he returned to his half-dead look again: "It's a pity that I said it wrong. I do have a method for memorizing directions here, but it doesn't mean that
I am the murderer!"
But Peggy seemed to be crazy. She didn't listen to Jie Zuo's explanation at all. Her eyes were red and her whole face was distorted, while she shouted: "You are the murderer! You are the murderer! I want to avenge Olive!" while slowly rising from the ground.
stand up.
"Hey, hey, although we haven't known each other for a long time, I think you are a good person." Jie Zuo looked at Peggy in front of him, looking like he was about to bite, and backed away as he spoke.
After Peggy stood up from the ground, she made a purring sound in her throat and rushed towards Jie Zuo.
Xie turned around and ran, his hands hanging behind him - a standard Hokage run.
"Sass, stop chasing me. It's impossible for us to do that. Hinata is still waiting for me at home!!"
It was easy to escape in the fog. After a few turns, Jie Zuo lost sight of Peggy's voice behind him. He could only hear an angry roar like a beast: "Where are you! Come out! I want to avenge Olive."
!”
"Tch! I'm crazy but not stupid! I'll tell you if I'm there!" Jie Zuo muttered in a low voice. After a minute, his voice gradually faded away until he could no longer hear it.
Jie Zuo breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at his empty wrist and said, "It has been 40 minutes since I arrived at this place. I really want to go back and lie on the hospital bed to see the nurse."
People's feelings are not mutual, I just feel that they are noisy. People don't want to know the truth, they only want to know the truth they want to know.
The inexplicable sound came again. Xie listened with his left ear, and after hearing the inexplicable sound disappear, he sneered: "Shut up!"
After speaking, he shrugged and walked forward with an indifferent expression.
Jie Zuo lowered his head and looked at the road under his feet. There was only some thin fog on the ground. He could see the road.
The road surface is not the same. Now Xie Zuo is walking along what looks like a painted road. Once he goes off track, the road will become paved with dirt, which is very easy to identify.
"I found you!" The voice came from the left side of Jie Zuo. Jie Zuo was so shocked that his color changed from morning to night: "Dean, I will take the medicine obediently." Then he suddenly remembered that he was no longer in the hospital. His face suddenly changed.
He relaxed and watched with interest the figure walking out of the thick fog to his left.
Peggy's current appearance was very scary - her eyes were red, and the pupils were no longer visible, and the whole eye was red. Her clothes were in tatters, and she didn't know what he encountered after they were apart for a while. He was holding it in his left hand.
A bone-chopping knife with blood stains on it. "I found you!"
When Peggy saw Xie Zuo, she rushed over like crazy.
Xie Zuo turned around and ran away, but after making a few turns, Xie Zuo gradually realized that something was wrong. Peggy, who was following him, couldn't get rid of him this time, and stayed 5 to 6 meters behind Xie Zuo.
at.
After running for a while, Jie Zuo was really exhausted, so he stopped and bent down to gasp for air. Peggy behind him also stopped strangely, staring at Jie Zuo and roaring non-stop.
"Huh?!" Jie Zuo looked at Peggy who was parked not far away, turned his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly burst out laughing: "Sure enough, he's a turtle with a shrunken head." Then he shouted to the sky: "You can't be here
Just kill me, right?"
After saying that, Peggy in the distance also stopped roaring, and her figure slowly disappeared.
Jie Zuo breathed enough and patted the non-existent soil on his body. He continued to walk forward along the road - even in the chase just now, Jie Zuo did not deviate from the road.
The chase didn't take long, about 20 minutes.
Next, Jie Zuo walked along this road for a long time. There was nothing to indicate the time here. So it felt very long, but Jie Zuo knew that the time had only passed thirty minutes.
During these thirty minutes, Jie Zuo heard screams in the fog from time to time, and unknown figures swaying in the fog. Peggy also came out to attack once, but she still stopped five or six meters away like last time.
No more progress.
Fortunately, this road has come to an end.
There was a lantern with yellow light at the end of the road. The light was not strong but it dispersed the dense fog around it.
"You're fine!" Jie Zuo raised the lamp and looked at the shadow that was speaking. The shadow was still hidden in the fog, and it was hard to see what it looked like.
"You are the first person who has no emotional fluctuations in the fog of loss. That lamp is yours, and it will help you in the future." After saying this, the shadow in the fog gradually faded away.
"So you can only trap people in this place for an hour and a half? And you can't attack people directly. You can only use some means to make the people here angry, sad, or afraid... right?" Jie Zuo
I held up the lamp and looked at it - it didn't look like the decoration of this world, but it looked like the style of my original world.
Shadow did not answer but asked: "How do you know the correct time? There should be nothing here that can indicate the time, right?"
"Oh! It's nothing. I'm just used to counting the seconds when I go to a strange place. It's five thousand four hundred and one seconds now. It's zero two seconds now." Jie Zuo said with a matter-of-fact expression.
Terrible stuff.
