When Qianye walked to the so-called north side of the town, it was already pitch dark, with not even a single person in sight.
He came to the door and looked at the dark bookstore plaque.
There is no introduction name on it, only two very concise words - bookstore.
It’s no different from other places…
The architectural style here is also more European.
"The mission asked me to come over and take a look. Now that I have seen it, the mission is considered completed, right?"
Qianye, who was not at ease about this, had no choice but to walk to the door of the bookstore, lift up an angular stone next to it, and throw it at the lock of the door of the bookstore!
And it was accompanied by several banging sounds.
The door lock of the bookstore also snapped...
"Although there is some banditry, there should be no problem."
"It's important to stay alive."
For slightly unethical practices.
Qian Ye felt a little remorseful for a second or two, and then prepared to walk into the study room.
"There is something inside...there is also something behind..."
Xie Aishan's reminder sounded.
Qianye's body couldn't help but pause slightly.
He used the reflection in the mirror next to the study room to observe the scene behind him.
Although it was a little unclear, he still noticed a white streamer fluttering in the wind at the corner of the street.
"Is there really a guy?"
"Ghost? Is it here, or is it following me all the way here?"
Since only white streamers could be seen, Qianye couldn't determine what was hiding around the corner.
But he was certain that that was indeed not normal.
He didn't think about what kind of garbage bag was blown here, and then he had the wrong idea.
"It's that, you...the woman you met in the hotel."
Xie Aishan named the other party's identity for Qianye.
After hearing that it was not a ghost, Qianye felt relieved a little bit.
However, he was still a little confused and confused.
"Perrin..."
"Why is she following me?"
This woman, who only had a one-time relationship with Qian Zhi at the beginning, kept paying too much attention to him during this period, which made him feel a little irritated.
Even if the other party is beautiful or something, and has not shown any malice so far...
But he was always being followed and monitored.
Boredom is inevitable.
"Forget it, ignore her, it's more important to check the bookstore first."
Chino doesn't have much time left.
He also didn't know at what level the envelope task stipulated the so-called reading room.
Just to be on the safe side.
He planned to walk around quickly after entering. It would be best to wait until the mission is refreshed at twelve o'clock before coming out...
Put behind him the fact that Perrin was following him.
Qianye didn't pay much attention.
With just a little caution, I took out the flashlight I had prepared and walked into the bookstore.
...
Qianye is not familiar with bookstores.
I can't find where the light source is in the library.
He could only use the white beam of light brought by the flashlight to walk on the wooden floor in the study room, his eyes quickly scanning the scene inside.
And Perrin was following him outside.
I am curious about Qianye breaking the lock and entering the bookstore.
"Is there something in there?"
"It must be valuable...otherwise why would I break someone else's lock so late and then come here."
Peilan thought secretly in his heart.
She hesitated slightly, then followed Qianye's steps and walked into the bookstore...
But without preparation, it would be much more difficult for her than Qianye.
After stepping into the door of the bookstore, she saw the light of Qianye's flashlight gradually fading away, but because the flashlight's light was too single, it could not illuminate her.
So she could only fumble, fearing that Qianye would find out if she made any noise, while moving forward in small steps...
It's a pity.
With the help of a flashlight, Qianye walked very fast and disappeared from Perrin's sight in less than a minute.
He only moved two bookcases.
Then he went up a floor, and Perrin couldn't keep up.
"Why is a bookstore so big..."
Peilan wandered in the bookcase aisle, looking at the dusty books beside him, and couldn't help but complain.
The lighting in the store is very poor.
During the process of groping, Perrin almost fell down twice due to carelessness...
She held on to the bookcase and tentatively moved forward step by step.
At this time, she felt a little regretful, why she followed Qianye to such a ghost place out of curiosity.
"This man is really unusual."
There was only one reason why Perrin became curious about Qianye.
That was the incident in that villa when the ghost appeared but then returned.
Even though Peilan didn't see Qianye take action with his own eyes.
I don’t know what method Qianye used.
But as she knew something about ghosts, she knew that the other party would not be tempted to try and deliberately scare people...
At that time, they were the only two people in the villa.
And Qianye was also injured.
So she concluded that it must have been done by Qianye.
"Everyone said that the source of the curse could not be brought in. How on earth did he do it..."
This is what makes Peilan curious about Qianye.
She knew very well that she would stay at the invitation party for more than twenty days.
You might encounter some unexpected event in these twenty days or so.
If only I could know the way to Chino.
Maybe you can save your life in times of danger...
"I'm really impatient. No matter what, coming to a place like this at night will only make it more dangerous."
Perrin regretted it.
I also touched the stairwell of the bookstore.
Because she was being supported along the way, when she was about to go upstairs, she suddenly felt something on the stair railing.
sticky......
It seems a little disgusting.
Peilan subconsciously retracted her hand immediately, but out of curiosity, she still put her hand in front of her nose and smelled it twice.
"It smells so bad, what is this?"
Perrin didn't want to turn on the light to see what was stuck on her hands.
She thought she might throw up her dinner uncontrollably.
Taking a random book from the bookcase next to him, Peilan tore off a page and barely wiped off the strange liquid on his hands.
"Um?"
But just after wiping off the liquid.
She found that she could actually read the words in the book clearly.
In an environment where you can't even see the road clearly, this seems inexplicably weird...
"Please do not......"
What don’t you want?
The cover of the book only contains these simple words.
Perrin couldn't help but open the contents inside.
But I saw that only these few words were written on the pages inside, and they were densely packed, filling the book.
It seems that the composition of this book relies on these four words...
Please do not.
"Can this also be a book?"
Perrin felt that this book might symbolize something ominous.
She immediately put the book back in its place, then gave up the idea of looking for Qianye, and prepared to retrace her steps and leave quickly...
...
...
Chino upstairs.
I also noticed something unusual.
He didn't take down the book from the cabinet and open it like Perrin did. Instead, the book automatically fell in front of him.
"There's someone above me."
This is what the book cover looks like.
The situation is almost the same as Perrin's.
Except for the different content of the words, everything in the books is almost the same...
The covers and content of both books are filled in just a few words.
After Qianye flipped through the book and saw the content, he raised his head and scanned the top with his flashlight.
Well, there isn't anything.
All Qianye saw was the extremely quiet ceiling, and the long-legged spider hanging upside down in the corner...
"I have a, no, uncomfortable feeling."
Xie Aishan said next to Qianye's ear.
This sentence also made Qianye realize and confirm that there must be something strange hidden in this bookstore.
He didn't want to collide head-on with the ghost.
That kind of thing always makes people nervous and fearful...
Chino doesn't miss that feeling.
He had the same idea as Peilan. Now that he discovered the danger here and visited the bookstore, he could go home and sleep.
There is a saying that Chino has always agreed with.
no Zuo no Die......
Every time he watched a horror movie, as soon as he saw the protagonists running to that place even though they knew something was wrong, calling it an adventure or something, he would feel like they were all crazy!
"What stimulates adrenaline? Life is important!"
Qianye didn't hesitate much.
He used a flashlight to look for the way he came, intending to find the stairs and leave this hellish place.
only.
Just when he turned around.
There was a banging sound above my head...
...
...
Perrin downstairs became nervous.
Because she found that she could no longer get out...
Although the bookstore is large and her vision is greatly affected, she feels that she can clearly remember the route and every corner.
In other words, if you wander around at will, you can always find a place to go out.
But now half an hour has passed.
She wandered around but returned to the place at the top of the stairs...
There was thick liquid on the railing, and the smell continued to spread.
"What's going on, ghost hitting the wall?"
It's not like Perrin has never encountered this kind of situation.
It's just that she had the help of the source of the curse in the past, and a simple ghost wall couldn't trap her at all.
And now, since no one can bring the source of the curse to the invitation party, Peilan can't help but feel a little fear in his heart...
She is afraid.
Afraid that I might be trapped here forever.
Because she has heard that once you enter the ghost-breaking wall, without the help of others, you will basically be unable to get out for the rest of your life...
Of course there is another possibility.
That is, when she keeps circling in the ghost wall until she is exhausted and her heart collapses, the ghost will jump out and kill her...
"what to do?"
"No one will be here at this time."
"And even if there are people, they won't break in looking for death like me..."
There is no hope in my heart.
Peilan became seriously ill and sought medical treatment.
She randomly picked up a few books from the bookcase next to her, ready to see if there was any way to escape in these strange books.
However, although the content of the book has changed this time.
But it has nothing to do with escaping...
"There's someone behind you."
These simple words made Peilan feel numb.
She almost wanted to slap herself twice.
Why did you touch the things on the bookcase...
This strange description that was enough to make people fear undoubtedly pushed her fear up even more.
"There's someone behind me." Peilan murmured the contents of the book.
At the same time, he kept turning his head and looking behind him.
Unfortunately, she couldn't see anything in her obstructed vision...
There is a way.
Scary people can scare people to death...
Unable to keep his mind calm, Peilan looked at the dark shadow on the stair railing and automatically imagined it as a curled-up black and thin ghost.
She gasped and ran away immediately without caring about anything else!
Being quick to respond is good, but it's also bad.
When Peilan ran, before he could even take two steps, he tripped over something at his feet and fell down like an ugly dog eating shit!
There is a warm current between the nose.
She reached out and touched it casually, and she knew it was a nosebleed without even looking at it...
When she got up again, a beam of bright light shone on her face. The glare made her reach out to block it.
Looking forward with slightly squinted eyes...
That was Qianye looking at her with raised eyebrows as if looking at a monkey.
"Miss Perrin, what are you doing?"
While Qianye was talking, he also waved his flashlight on Peilan's dirty clothes.
As if expressing.
I just saw you throw a dog and eat shit...
"I still want to ask you what you are doing! Come to a place like this at night!"
Peilan didn't know where the anger came from.
Maybe he was thinking that he was in such danger just because he was following this guy Qianye...
Being illuminated by the strong light, she took two steps forward and wanted to snatch Qianye's flashlight away.
Qianye's wrist shook when he saw this.
She was disappointed...
Then the flashlight light shone directly on Peilan's face again.
"What are you going to do!"
"You have a nosebleed."
"I know, you don't need to be so kind to remind me." Peilan wiped her nose hard and sniffed again. The pain of being hit on her nose started to come out at this time.
"You don't need to look at me like this. It's not me who harmed you. It was you who followed me. You're the one who did it. You can only say that you deserve it."
Qianye looked at Peilan's unfriendly eyes and gave him a kind reminder to prevent Peilan from carefully heaping hatred on himself.
"You came here at night and smashed the door lock with a rock, okay? If you see this kind of thing, you will become suspicious. If it were in the real world, I would have already called the police, saying that a thief broke into a bookstore."
Perrin obviously won't admit his mistake.
She still stubbornly bickered with Qianye.
While she was still a little scared at first, after seeing Qianye, she just wanted to express her grievances...
"Stealing? Can what happens to a scholar be called stealing?"
Qianye threw out a thousand-year-old joke.
However, he also realized that now was not the time to break up with Peilan. After saying this, he immediately stepped forward to hug Peilan, and then dragged him to the empty position under the stairs before the other party could react.
Then turn off the flashlight.
"You're going to do it again..."
Seeing the guy in front of him dragging him in, Peilan couldn't restrain himself and wanted to ask.
But Qianye directly covered her mouth with his hand.
interrupted her next words.
"Shut up first, something is coming." Qianye said seriously.
Peilan naturally understood that what Qianye said was not something good.
at close range.
She stared into Qianye's eyes and found that his eyes were full of vigilance...
"What...is that thing?"
Perrin was still thinking.
But the next second, a strange noise came from the ceiling, which attracted her attention.
The sound was like someone walking on the ceiling, wearing heavy leather shoes stepping on the wooden board above their head...
Perrin looked around.
After being dazzled by a flashlight just now, and now turning off the flashlight, she couldn't even see anything...
I only heard that the thing making the strange noise seemed to be looking for something, and it was far and near from my position.
