The sharp screams echoed in the sewers, spreading farther and farther.
Everyone was startled by the scream and turned to look at Susan, who was hugging Daisy tightly and jumping with her eyes closed.
"There are rats!!!"
"It's just a mouse, don't be afraid, don't be afraid...it's normal to have mice in a place like this." Daisy rubbed Susan's head with a look of helplessness on her face.
Daisy raised the oil lamp. There was still a lot of kerosene in it, enough to last until the end of their adventure.
"When will we go back?"
she asked, worried that returning too late would worry her parents.
"If possible, I hope it will be after seeing the ghost." Reese, who was at the front of the team, turned back and looked around, and sighed helplessly: "But it seems unlikely. Let's go back after walking a little further."
He won't come here again next time.
And it doesn’t come with a towing oil bottle.
Who knows why Daisy suddenly wanted to bring Susan and Victoria to see the girl named Susan. She was actually wearing an expensive dress... Did she think this was going on, an aristocratic dance?
Just as Susan was dissatisfied with the boys, the boys were dissatisfied with them.
Daisy noticed something, and when she opened her mouth to ease the atmosphere, she suddenly froze. She tilted her head slightly and looked into the depths of the passage with a slightly confused look.
The moisture on the wall became more and more serious. In the darkness where the light could not reach more than ten meters away, a faint humming sound was blown by the damp wind.
"Shh..."
She raised her hand to interrupt other people's conversation and listened attentively.
"Did you hear that?" Daisy asked the others for confirmation.
The hum is small, but it is there.
The remaining four people found Daisy's serious look very interesting and tried to listen with bated breath.
As time goes by, the smiles on their faces gradually fade.
"Who is humming in front...?"
…
Wow——
A pair of black rain boots stopped in the river, and the sound of treading water disappeared.
The water flows around the rain boots and flows past.
Lu Li stared into the darkness in the distance. Just now, an undetectable scream came from the depths.
A faint murmur filled the sewer.
"Are those people in trouble?"
…
"Just go and see and you will find out!" Reese said eagerly.
The turbulent emotions dissipated the little fear, and he continued to explore supernatural places just for this moment.
"Don't hold out too much hope. We just walked...about a hundred meters. We are still under the coastal street. Maybe there was too much noise in one of the pubs and it spread down below."
Ben poured a basin of cold water on his friend.
Some were excited, some were indifferent, and some were afraid. The young people with their own concerns decided to move forward and find out.
As we go deeper, the humming sound in the oncoming wind becomes clearer.
There is no sound effect, and it is not pleasant. It is just a random hum with echo.
"It's so late, it shouldn't be a staff member..." Daisy lowered her voice and said.
The five of them were leaning against the left side of the sewer, with Susan holding her arm tightly, and the more timid Victoria holding Susan's arm.
No one answered, all their attention was focused on the hum.
The reverberating hum can no longer be heard without paying attention, and it seems to be somewhere in front where the light cannot reach.
But at this moment, the humming stopped suddenly.
The surroundings fell into dead silence.
The source of the sound was suddenly lost, and everyone looked around blankly like headless flies. Fear sprouted in their hearts and spread.
"It found us!"
"Shh..."
"Quiet!"
There was a chaotic sound, and Rees, who had always remained silent, suddenly turned around and raised his torch to shine behind everyone.
Generally speaking, ghosts will suddenly appear behind you at such times——
Reese's eyes suddenly widened, and the torch slipped from his hands and fell to the ground. In the sudden darkness, he used all his strength to squeeze out a sound from his throat.
"Run! Run!!!"
The people who didn't know what was going on subconsciously fled, screams and screams were heard everywhere, the light was shaking, and they were mixed together.
Reese ran hard, his ears filled with the sound of wind and running. Someone might be falling behind, but he didn't dare to look back.
Scenes of life were passing through his mind like a revolving lantern at this time. He imagined what it would be like after finding the ghost countless times, but all of this was shattered by the cold reality.
"I can't run anymore!"
After running hundreds of meters in one breath, someone shouted. Reese's chest was relieved and he staggered to a stop. Looking back, he looked back and saw that all four of them were there, even Susan, who was wearing a small skirt.
No one is left behind.
The sound of rapid breathing echoed in the empty sewer, and the cool air did nothing to relieve the lungs that were about to explode.
Daisy took out the oil lamp she was holding in her arms, swallowed hard, and gasped, "What did you see!?"
"I...ahem...I saw a face."
Reese leaned against the cold wall, the coolness seeping into his back, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead like rain.
"That face emerged from the water...no body, just a face, that face...that face..."
Reese couldn't go on. The memory of that vicious face made him shudder.
"Isn't it like this?"
But at this moment, a strange voice that did not belong to everyone slanted in.
Everyone froze in action, and chills rose from the bottom of their hearts.
"run!!!"
Daisy shouted.
…
Snapped!
A rain boot stepped on the pale face. The face instantly shattered in the water, and the ripples were washed away by the current.
"Is there a ghost here?"
Lu Li raised his head, frowned and whispered.
The extinguished torches lay in the damp corridor. Lu Li seemed to see a scene of several young people being frightened by the ghost faces and panicking, leaving the torches and escaping deep into the underground passage.
Lu Li took off the holster on his waist and dimmed the light of the oil lamp.
…
A new round of escape begins.
But everyone could no longer run.
"Don't stop! It's still behind us!" Reese shouted through gritted teeth.
"We, we can't... go any further..." An arm was placed on Reese's shoulder. Ben panted, his glasses filled with moisture: "There's something... something's wrong... that ghost is... driving us forward."
Walk……"
"We will be overtaken if we stop!"
Ben coughed several times in pain and shook his head with difficulty: "It... it is chasing us deliberately. Maybe it wants to play with us until we are exhausted, or maybe it is its lair in front..."
"What should we do?" Daisy asked anxiously.
She could still keep quiet, and Susan and Victoria had hugged each other and cried.
"Run back!" Ben took off his glasses, a look of ferocity appeared on his face. "There are five of us. It can't catch them all. As long as someone runs out and asks for help, we will have a chance!"
Everyone turned and faced the way they came.
Daisy raised her phone, and on the edge of the light a few meters away, a strange translucent ghost faintly emerged.
Everyone's scalp was numb, they didn't dare to face the ghostly figure, and no one dared to take the first step.
Ben felt furious in his heart, his body swayed and he was about to rush out, when he suddenly saw something and his eyes widened.
Behind the ghost, a slender dark outline appeared quietly.
The figure was nearly a head taller than the ghost. A flintlock gun was quietly pressed against the back of the ghost's head.
