Hearing the rapid footsteps coming from the house, Tongzi immediately took out her teeth from her mouth. A faint white light enveloped her, but the footsteps still came towards the door.
This time, Hitomi didn't see the live broadcast... People who were targeted by Kumada Nobuhiko's killing rules could not see the live broadcast.
But Hitomi could imagine that all the residents in the Nara apartment had seen the camera rushing towards the door from the house where Kumada Nobuhiko had eaten people.
Hitomi knew that this was another complement to Kumada Nobuhiko's weird rules - in the past, Kumada Nobuhiko would only chase him from the corridor. In this case, Hitomi could quickly hide in the house to avoid being directly seen by the other party, that is,
It's safe for now.
During the game between Hitomi and Kumada Nobuhiko, such rule completions have appeared many times. For example, people who enter the corridor will be locked, people who jump off the building will be teleported back, and residents cannot commit suicide or blind themselves. These
These are rules that did not exist at the beginning, and were continuously improved during the process of Kumada Nobuhiko killing people.
Originally, Tongzi was more accustomed to such rule completion. But this time, the change came too suddenly and too fatally.
Even if Hitomi can temporarily hide the aura of the living person on her body through Yuki's teeth, if Nobuhiko Kumada walks out of the door, catches up with him, and directly sees Hitomi, everything will be over.
At this moment, she thought of two ways to deal with it. One was to return to the first floor, to the room where the death occurred, but the road was too long, and it would be enough for Nobuhiko Kumada to catch up and kill her N times.
or……
She looked at the door opposite. If the person in this room was willing to open the door and put herself in... Of course, it was very possible that because she opened the door rashly, the resident was also eaten by Nobuhiko Kumada. After all, Hitomi was unable to do so at the moment.
Accurately determine to what extent Kumada Nobuhiko's rules have been completed.
She really doesn't want to involve innocent people.
Then go to the first floor and use the fastest speed.
Just as Tongzi was about to take action, the door opposite suddenly opened, and a very familiar and pleasant voice came from the door:
"Hurry! Please hurry up!"
On the other side of the next door, Kumada Nobuhiko's footsteps were getting closer and closer, as if he was about to rush out of the door.
Tongzi did not hesitate and leaned into the door opposite.
What Tongzi didn't notice was that at the same time she entered the door, a colorless and transparent bird passed by her side and quickly got in.
As soon as he entered the door, Tongzi immediately closed the door and hugged the woman inside tightly, so that her whole body could be wrapped in the white light radiating from her teeth.
The moment Tongzi hugged the woman, she felt that the body of the person in her arms immediately froze and stiffened.
She hugged her, put their heads on each other's shoulders, and smelled each other's breath.
Tongzi put her index finger on her lips and said: "Shh——"
With a "squeak" sound, the door next door opened.
Hitomi heard Kumada Nobuhiko's footsteps echoing in the corridor.
Her heart was beating fast, and the heart of the woman in her arms was beating very fast, even faster than hers, beating one after another like two big drums.
She heard Nobuhiko Kumada's footsteps walking toward the door here, getting closer and closer. The heartbeats of the two of them became faster and faster, as if they were going to collide directly.
The footsteps stopped at the door.
Her and her heartbeats stopped almost at the same time. The two hugged each other tightly, not even daring to breathe.
After staying at the door for a short while, Kumada Nobuhiko's footsteps sounded again and he walked towards the staircase passage.
"Pah - pah - pah -"
The footsteps became farther and farther away, until they could no longer be heard. Makoto Karasawa's body was still stiff and her heartbeat was still beating fast.
Karasawa Makoto could no longer figure out whether her sudden and violent heartbeat was because of the ogre just across the door, or whether it was because of the investigator who was hugging him tightly in front of her.
In fact, when the investigator got into her house, closed the door, and hugged her, the terrifying footage stopped and the live broadcast ceased.
At that time, Karasawa Makoto already understood that the monster had released its lock on the investigators, so it would be impossible to open her door and continue to eat people.
But why is her body so stiff and her heart beating so fast that it almost jumps out of her chest?
After the monster's footsteps faded away, the investigator let go of Makoto Karasawa's body and apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, you..."
At this point, the investigator looked at her. Although he was wearing sunglasses, he could still see the surprise and disbelief on the investigator's face, "Are you Miss Makoto Karasawa?"
Karasawa Makoto's stiff body had just improved, and he nodded like a piece of wood: "Yes."
After finishing speaking, he seemed to feel that his answer was too cold, so he added: "Yes, it's me."
"Xiaosheng is your fan,"
The investigator took off his sunglasses, revealing eyes as beautiful as Makoto Karasawa's. There was a very restrained excitement in his eyes, "It's been since you first entered the industry. It was not long before you filmed "The Fantasy Island"
There are still two years left before "Lidu Love Story"."
"Uh, thank you! Thank you for your support!"
What else can I say? Originally, Makoto Karasawa wanted to thank the other party for risking his life to sneak into the apartment to rescue everyone.
After saying this, the atmosphere fell into silence.
Karasawa Makoto originally had a lot of words of gratitude she wanted to say to the other party, but it seemed as if the strong hug just now had squeezed all the gratitude back into her stomach. At this moment, she couldn't even spit out any words.
"Hitomi-sama, what are you going to do next?" Karasawa Makoto finally said.
"Just call me Xiaosheng Tongzi,"
Dalin Tongzi took out his mobile phone and clicked on the resident group.
"It's definitely not possible to continue to deal with Nobuhiko Kumada using the method just now. His rules are constantly being supplemented. It's very likely that next time, I won't be lucky enough to hide in the next room."
In the household group, from the moment Obayashi Hitomi was targeted by the monster and the live broadcast started, "God bless you" and "Izanagi bless you!", all kinds of messages praying for her flooded the screen.
"I'm fine. The residents of unit three saved me,"
Obayashi Tongzi sent a voice message, "Please continue to report Kumada Nobuhiko's movements in the group. On which floor he appears, and which room he is on, you must tell me as soon as possible."
A series of "Okay!" flooded the screen.
"The top floor, my plan is on the top floor,"
Hitomi pointed at the ceiling and looked at Karasawa Makoto,
"There is a room there, which is different from all the rooms in the Nara Apartment. It is Kumada Nobuhiko's own room in the fog, and it may also be the hiding place of the origin of his rules.
I have always had a feeling that as long as I can enter that room, it is possible to completely... take Nobuhiko Kumada away and never come back.
When Nobuhiko Kumada appeared for the second time, I found the location of the room, but I didn't find the opportunity to enter.
The last time Nobuhiko Kumada appeared, I almost walked in, but at the last moment, the sun rose... I plan to try again this time."
"But,"
After hearing Hitomi's words, Karasawa Makoto immediately became nervous for her, "That kind of place must be the place that Kumada Nobuhiko cares about the most, right?"
"Yes, every time when I approach that room, I can feel the aura of Kumada Nobuhiko who is about to go berserk," Hitomi said, "So, the more this happens, the more necessary it is for me to go there and give it a try."
The atmosphere fell into dullness again.
What Hitoko is thinking, Karasawa Makoto has no way of knowing, but at this moment she is really thinking about the safety of the other party... Before, Hitoko had a way to fight guerrilla warfare with monsters, but as Hitoko Obayashi said, monsters kill people.
The rules are constantly being completed, and now even Tongzi may not be able to guarantee that he will not be targeted by it after leaving the room, so why bother to die again.
"Don't worry too much,"
Hitomi seemed to see Karasawa Makoto's anxiety and explained to her specifically:
"When the next live broadcast starts, we will be able to confirm where Kumada Nobuhiko's location is. At that time, I will rush out as soon as possible and take the ladder passage farthest from his current location——
The white light of this tooth can isolate his perception to a certain extent, you can see it, right? As long as the distance is not too close, this white light is very useful.
Even if the distance is very close, if you get into the room and open a door, the white light will be very effective. So, this time, I am very confident to enter that room."
Karasawa Makoto suddenly remembered that when Obayashi Hitomi came in just now, she hugged herself without saying a word. It turned out that it was just so that she could be enveloped in this white light...
Although Hitomi's explanation was very considerate, it still couldn't relieve Karasawa Makoto's nervousness. She couldn't help but ask:
"I actually don't understand. You can obviously stay out of it, right?
Before, it was because only you could deal with it, and only you could walk safely in its fog, so you needed to stand up and walk in.
But now, you may have to face the same danger, right? The monster's killing pattern is constantly being completed, who knows when, even your white light will not be able to isolate it from its detection?"
After saying these words, Karasawa Makoto actually found it a little difficult to understand herself. Logically speaking, she should feel gratified and lucky to have such a brave and fearless investigator who is willing to go forward to rescue her and the residents of the Nara Apartment.
It's okay to be practical, but why do you become so anxious?
Dalin Tongzi is still staring at the mobile phone screen, seemingly waiting for the live broadcast to start again, but the next live broadcast has not arrived yet.
"Nobuhiko Kumada, the man-eating monster you call him,"
Dalin Tongzi suddenly said: "Before he turned into a weirdo, he was actually an investigator like me."
"ah……"
Karasawa Makoto was surprised.
"Well," Dalin Tongzi took out a photo from his arms, which was a group photo of two women and a man. "He is not only an investigator, but also a teammate who has saved my life many times."
She caressed the portrait in the photo, "This girl's name is Hanaoka Yuki, and the teeth hanging around my neck are hers.
This boy is Nobuhiko Kumada... When we were investigating the last grotesque incident, in order to save the two of us from the grotesque murder rules, he took the initiative to trigger the first-level rule where grotesques had higher priority... Then, grotesques locked onto him.
And he became the current Kumada Nobuhiko..."
Although Hitoko Obayashi did not continue to explain anything, nor did he explain it in detail, Karasawa Makoto seemed to suddenly understand the reason why the other party was so persistent... This feeling is difficult to express in words, but Karasawa Makoto just understood it all of a sudden.
.
It must be a very sad story. Karasawa Makoto thought.
Makoto Karasawa was still afraid of the ogres wandering in the building, but when she thought of the investigator who was once a brave and fearless investigator who was willing to sacrifice to save his friends, she vaguely felt that she could feel something similar to Hitomi.
of mixed emotions.
"Timed out..."
Dalin Tongzi said.
She looked at her watch, calculating the time, and suddenly a small black ball appeared in her hand.
Karasawa Makoto understood what Hitomi meant: the next monster killing live broadcast will be much later than expected.
However, Karasawa Makoto hoped that such lateness would never come.
"What is this little black ball?" she asked.
"Violent Soul Bead,"
Dalin Tongzi put the small black ball in the palm of his hand, gently threw it up and caught it again.
"It's something that can prevent our investigators from turning into monsters."
Karasawa Makoto inexplicably felt that this violent soul bead was permeable and unlucky. I am afraid that every weird investigator would not want to use it one day.
"The live broadcast hasn't started yet..." Makoto Karasawa looked at the direction of the door and took a chance, "Could it be that Nobuhiko Kumada has already..."
"It should be in the nearby corridor,"
Dalin Tongzi said: "Maybe he is waiting for me to show up... He must also hate me because I keep interrupting him."
Wouldn't this be even worse? Being targeted by an ogre.
At this time, the camera finally appeared again——
The picture showed a young woman covered in name tags and carrying LV on her back, walking out of her house as if nothing had happened.
The group of residents who had been silent for a while became lively again.
"Who is this woman? Is she too brave?"
Dalin Tongzi immediately sent a voice message: "Does anyone know the location of this woman?"
"It seems to be a woman who lives in Unit 6 on the 13th floor... As for the location, it's right in front of her house."
"Ah...ah..." a user suddenly sent a voice message, "I know this woman, and you should also know her. Her story was in the news some time ago..."
"???"
"Please elaborate!"
"This woman's name is probably Rila Kotake. It seems that she was the one who pushed her best friend Ishizaki Chiharu and her savior into the hands of the gang. As a result, the savior was killed by the gang and broken into dozens of pieces.
There were no corpses left.
Because of this incident, a newspaper reporter made a special report, and Xiaozhu Lila was also exposed by the entire Internet. However, it seems that because she did not break the law at all during the whole incident, the judge had nothing to do with her.
…”
"It turns out it's her. I didn't expect such a person to live in the same building as us. No wonder she's so unlucky!"
"If I had known that such a woman lived in a Nara apartment, I would have moved immediately. I don't know what the people in the sales department were thinking. Are they thinking about miso soup?"
"For such a person, being eaten by a man-eating monster is completely retribution. It's a pity that innocent people like us are implicated!"
"Hurry up and watch the live broadcast,"
The person who exposed Xiaozhu Lila before sent another voice message, "Seeing the previous residents being eaten makes me really worried. Seeing this kind of woman being eaten makes me feel really good.
During this time, I have been paying attention to the follow-up of the incident between Rila Kotake and Chiharu Ishizaki, and I wanted to kill Rila Kotake myself. I never expected that I could see this vicious woman end up like this before she died. It was really worth it.
Got it!"
The camera of the live broadcast keeps getting closer to Xiaozhu Lila.
Xiaozhu Lila did not notice the approach of the monster at all.
The camera zoomed in and pounced towards her head...
The camera retreated, and Xiaozhu Lila appeared in the picture intact—yes, her head was completely on her neck, and she walked slowly towards the elevator entrance...
