Chapter 377 A girl bets her life in exchange for a promise
Nara apartment third floor.
It's like being in an illusion, like parallel time and space.
The terrifying ogre is still wandering in the fog-wrapped apartment.
"This apartment has at least two hundred households,"
Karasawa Makoto stared at Gu Xing, "Why did you find me here?"
"It's all a coincidence,"
Gu Xing said: "I just walked up one floor, and when I reached the third floor, I found that I was locked by an ogre. I had to find a house to hide in, and I happened to knock on your door first."
Karasawa Makoto: "Are you still going out?"
Gu Xing: "Otherwise there is no way to deal with that monster."
Karasawa Makoto: "Do you have the ability not to be eaten by him?"
Gu Xing: "No, but someone has to step forward. Otherwise, sooner or later, that guy will eat up the entire Lidu City."
Makoto Karasawa looked worried, "Don't the police place all their hopes on you? They can't expect you to be alone..."
"I know what you're worried about,"
Gu Xing smiled, "The ogre is scary, but he acts according to the rules. The rules will appear as certain rules. As long as you find the loopholes between the rules and the rules, you will have a chance to escape the fate of certain death."
"Wait a minute,"
Karasawa Makoto said: "What is your mobile phone number? Let's leave each other's contact information. In an emergency, maybe I can help."
…
Not long after, Gu Xing opened the door and broke into the dark corridor.
Karasawa Makoto stared at his back, an ominous premonition welling up in her heart.
As an observer soul attached to this body but unable to control it, Karasawa Makoto was suddenly able to feel the mood of the owner of this body in detail at the moment——
She has only seen such characters in movies:
The detective in a gray coat always looks calm no matter what situation he faces. He calmly analyzes the clues at the murder scene and has no fear when facing the most vicious murderer.
If there is evidence hidden in a dangerous dark fog that may reveal the truth, even if there are only a few clues, he will dive into the fog without hesitation, even if he is shattered to pieces.
The owner of this body couldn't help but initiate immersive speculation and scenario interpretation.
The image of Gu Xing running fast in the dark appeared in her mind...the dark corridor, the sound of hurried footsteps, the blood flowing everywhere and the pungent smell of blood. The soles of his feet would slip if he was not careful, and it was terrifying.
Ogres flickered in and out of the mist.
He possesses flexible skills, masters powerful magic, and can easily dodge the terrifying bites of the ogres.
Karasawa Makoto held her hand tightly and felt her heartbeat, like a drum without rhythm.
She tried her best to imagine a happy and happy outcome, but the image of Gu Xing being devoured bite by bite flashed through her mind uncontrollably. Just like the apartment residents who had been devoured before.
Karasawa Makoto once wanted to dial Gu Xing's number to stop him from continuing to take risks, but when he picked up the phone, he found that his head went blank.
At this time, the chat group of the apartment residents was in chaos, and the residents cheered for Gu Xing like they were swiping the screen.
Makoto Karasawa is immersed in a huge contradiction - she hopes that Gu Xing can end his adventure and come back safe and sound, but she also hopes that he can turn the tide and save every resident in the apartment.
Time passed by, and helplessness and hesitation overwhelmed this body. She wanted to change the bad state, but she didn't know what she could do for Gu Xing.
Occasionally, for a moment, Makoto Karasawa thought that it would be great if she had magic and superpowers like Harry Potter or Marvel heroes.
I don't know how long it took, but the phone suddenly rang.
Her heart suddenly rose to her throat.
After picking up the phone, she listened carefully to the voice on the other end of the phone.
"Miss Karasawa,"
That was Gu Xing's voice, "I need your help." His voice was still calm and calm.
Karasawa Makoto: "Please speak."
Gu Xing: "You have to listen carefully, I don't have time to repeat it again——
I am currently on the top floor of this apartment. The resident here has been eaten by Nobuhiko Kumada. I took advantage of the short gap to escape here. He will not find me for the time being, but after the resident's feet reach the top of the building,
It's no longer safe here.
This is the time we can use.
Listen, I will pick the right moment later and rush out of this room."
Karasawa Makoto: "Where are you going?"
Gu Xing: "There is a mysterious cabin on the top floor. I am sure that as long as I can reach there, Kumada Nobuhiko will be finished."
Makoto Karasawa: "What do you need me to do?"
Gu Xing: "Before I rush out of the room, I need you to come out first, attract the ogre's attention, and help me buy time - before the ogre takes action, I will rush to the top cabin,
Then the ogre will come back for me."
Karasawa Makoto: "What if I get eaten before that?"
Gu Xing: "You may not know that from the ogre's perspective, the Mystery House has a very high priority. Once someone attacks it, he will leave everything behind."
Karasawa Makoto: "There is always the possibility of accidents."
Gu Xing: "I understand what you mean. I don't necessarily need your help. I can do it myself."
Karasawa Makoto: "Damn it, why didn't you find someone else but found me instead?"
Gu Xing: "Those people didn't even want to open the door for me."
"Even so," Karasawa Makoto was discouraged, "you still plan to rescue them?"
Gu Xing: "My purpose is to deal with the ogre, not to rescue any specific person. If we always complain and hate, we investigators will accomplish nothing."
Karasawa Makoto was silent for a long time, "I need your commitment."
Gu Xing: "What do you mean..."
"In this incident, if I die, nothing will happen," Karasawa Makoto said with a smile, "But if I survive, you have to promise me one thing."
Gu Xing: "What's the matter?"
Makoto Karasawa: "I haven't thought about it yet. When I think about it, I'll let you know, okay?"
Gu Xing: "Then prepare to fight."
Makoto Karasawa: "Aren't you going to put some restrictions on this promise?"
Gu Xing: "I have no reason to bargain for a girl's promise to bet her life."
…
After a while, Gu Xing called again, "Ms. Tangze, you can take action."
Karasawa Makoto's heartbeat was so violent that it seemed like it could shatter thick walls.
She took a deep breath and rushed out of the room.
She sank into the dark night like a frightened deer.
She lowered her head, shivering, and her hair spread loosely over her face.
Soon, the ogre's footsteps sounded, getting closer and closer.
Karasawa Makoto was shaking uncontrollably.
Fear pierced her chest like a sharp knife, but it also made her extremely calm.
She knew she must not look at the ogre's face, so she tried her best to keep her eyes on the floor, and countless ways of escape flashed through her mind.
"run".
This word flashed across Karasawa Makoto's mind like lightning. Mechanically, her steps started, and her whole body retreated into the house like a frightened bird.
She rushed into the door of her home, locked the door as quickly as possible, and leaned against the back of the door. She heard her own breathing, her own heartbeat, and the footsteps of the ogre.
With a "bang", the door was knocked open.
Makoto Karasawa was knocked out and rolled on the ground, feeling severe pain all over his body.
Then, an irresistible force forced her to raise her head——
The terrifying ogre was squeezing into the narrow apartment. The walls on both sides of the door frame were burst by him, and spider-like cracks instantly covered the white wall.
Karasawa Makoto saw clearly the appearance of the ogre.
He was tall and burly, his mouth was twisted and torn, his face was covered with scarlet bloodshot eyes, his teeth were long and sharp, and his eyes were hollow like a zombie.
In the blink of an eye, he rushed in, his huge body almost filling the entire room.
He looked down at her and met her horrified eyes.
At this moment, a thought flashed through Karasawa Makoto's mind:
Where is Gu Xing? He escaped?
Damn it, I was deceived by him.
The ogre jumped at her.
Her body froze instantly and she couldn't move. She couldn't even close her eyes.
"Dong dong dong!"
The second before she was swallowed by the ogre's big mouth, she heard a rapid and powerful knock on the door.
The next moment, the ogre disappeared, as if an invisible hand had snatched him away.
Sitting paralyzed on the ground, Karasawa Makoto exhaled a long breath.
Immediately afterwards, the lens with the ogre as the first perspective appeared in front of Karasawa Makoto again——
The camera focused on a door, and there was a knock on the door.
The ogre opened the door. Standing at the door was a man in a suit carrying a briefcase and wearing sunglasses. Judging from the outline of his face, there was a hint of Gu Xing.
He said to the ogre: "Hello, do you need a loan?"
It was Gu Xing's voice.
