At this time, Mu Ziyi was deep in thought and had already made some guesses about the function of the white mask.
She pulled Dong Xie and said, "Okay, Blake, how will you look like in front of Mr. Xia when you are so flustered?"
The feeling of heat is getting stronger and stronger, and it even feels like the facial skin is burning!
At the same time, the lights in the room started to flicker on and off!
Compared with Dong Xie and his mother Ziyi, Li Fu is very calm.
Then……
The door behind you...
The door handle suddenly turned!
Of course, the door is locked and cannot be opened.
The supernatural spirit...is outside!
Dong Xie looked at Riff, who was still extremely calm, in shock, and then...
The hot feeling disappeared at this moment.
Then, the door handle stopped turning.
Obviously, the alien spirit left here. Moreover, it left instantly, otherwise, the hot feeling should have gradually disappeared.
At the same time, Reeve took out two packs of coffee beans and said, "What kind of coffee do you want to drink? Is it from the Kalfen District or the Dren District?"
"Here, whatever..."
"Let's go to the Delun subdivision. My granddaughter works as a corpse hunter there."
There is also a coffee machine here. Reeve operated it very skillfully and said: "The coffee grown in Delun subdivision is the most fragrant. Unfortunately, the harvests this year are not good. I am not willing to drink this bag, either.
Now that you are here, I am willing to take it apart."
"Well, Mr. Xia Ya." Dong Xie asked, "Can you tell us more about your experience?"
"Experience..." When Reeve was operating the coffee machine, he looked up at Dong Xie and said, "I have been doing this for some years, and I have some experience. However, no one can guarantee that one day I will
I'm going to die here. I can't relax at any time."
Dong Xie wanted to ask this old man a lot, but...if he really asked, he would have revealed his identity. Fortunately, there seemed to be no tools to communicate with the outside world, such as a telephone. But even so, in
If you stay here for a long time, a flaw may be revealed, or someone from the Black Corpse Team may contact the old man. Although Dong Xie and Mu Ziyi both have military police guns on their bodies, who can guarantee... this old man doesn't have any on his body?
gun?
and……
What level is the white mask?
Why haven’t I heard of white masks before?
After the coffee was brewed, Reeve carefully poured it into two coffee cups and handed it to Dong Xie and Mu Ziyi.
Like other masks, the white mask has a hollow mouth, which does not affect eating and drinking at all.
"Although I can't see your faces, you should all be quite young."
Dong Xie just picked up the coffee cup and nodded slightly when he heard these words.
"Now, life is indeed very sad, otherwise who would want to do the work of the Black Corpse Team." The old man also made a cup of coffee himself: "I first entered this industry because of the great outbreak of infectious diseases. There were corpses everywhere.
As a result, I don’t know how many Facemelders appeared, and it was really a nightmare... Although you are young, you should have heard your parents talk about it, right?"
"Hmm... I think I said that." Dong Xie could only reply like this.
The old man held the steaming coffee cup and continued: "My wife also passed away that year. At that time, because the hospital was overwhelmed, many patients were given up on treatment and dumped into a medical area that was only responsible for basic treatment. As a result, there were not enough medical staff.
, even if the patient dies, there is often no time for the corpse to be removed from the mask. My wife was right there, turned into a facemelder, and finally turned into a supernatural spirit bit by bit."
Speaking of this, he said bitterly: "At that time, it was clear that the outbreak of infectious diseases could be contained by closing down the earliest affected areas, but the silver-faced congressman delayed in issuing a closure order. Eventually, the infectious disease began to spread comprehensively. It took several days.
In 2008, most of the survivors had developed antibodies, and the epidemic was completely eradicated. Those years were really hell. It was at that time that I became a member of the Black Corpse Team. In this profession, once you join, you can only do it until you die.
Resign."
Speaking of this, he suddenly realized that he was a little out of sorts, and said quickly: "Look at me... I'm so old, and so long-winded. You are obviously asking me about my experience, but why do I start talking more and more..."
Then, he took a sip of coffee and said: "What we corpse chasers have to do is to lead the alien spirits outside the black wall. Once the alien spirits are allowed to grow, the consequences will be disastrous. That infectious disease that year,
In order to lure all the strange spirits out of the wall, I don’t know how many people died, and the population within the wall was reduced by about one-third."
One third of the population!
Dong Xie's expression, covered under the two masks, became ugly.
"Your generation is considered happy." Reeve seemed to recall something very scary. The hand holding the coffee cup began to tremble violently: "Now even if some strange spirits appear in the wall, they can be dealt with quickly.
.In comparison...that was the real hell back then."
When he said "hell", he didn't even notice that some coffee spilled out of the cup.
But Dong Xie knew very well that this place was probably the real hell.
"Well, what we have to do on a daily basis now is to guide the alien spirit towards the black wall as much as possible. Once the problem is not right, put on a white mask. The white mask is convenient because it can be covered on top of the original mask and can be taken off at any time.
Can be worn, independent of the normal six mask color levels."
Independent... a kind of mask?
"Using high-level masks to attract foreign spirits, and using white masks to continuously lure foreign spirits outside the black wall are the key. At present, all the foreign spirits in the wall have not mutated, but even so, we cannot take it lightly."
Mutations?
Both Dong Xie and Mu Ziyi captured this vocabulary.
All this time, the foreign spirits have not brought a strong sense of fear to Dong Xie and Mu Ziyi. After all, the humans inside this wall have a deep understanding of this evil spirit, and even have various strategies to deal with it.
Fear often comes from the unknown. For things that are well understood, the feeling of fear is often much lessened.
But now it seems that it is not that simple!
Alien spirits can also mutate!
Based on Dong Xie's understanding of the apartment, as time goes by during the Scarlet Letter mission, the apartment will definitely loosen its restrictions on supernatural spirits, allowing mutant supernatural spirits to be born!
So far... As a resident, I have not suffered too many life threats within this wall. But the more this happens, the more it feels like the calm before the storm.
"However, the closer you are to the black wall, the shorter the spatial transfer distance of the white mask will be. This will indeed be more troublesome."
Reeve's subsequent words completely verified Mu Ziyi's inference.
The function of the white mask is indeed space transfer!
However, the distance of spatial transfer is limited.
Come to think of it, the vulture used the white mask to transport all the sack of stolen money to a distant place.
But, the strange thing is...why didn't the vulture just use the white mask to escape from the casino?
And next, Reeve's words completely explained Mu Ziyi's doubts: "You were quite surprised when you first learned about the white mask. The white mask is quite mysterious to the general public. Most people may have heard of it, but they have not heard of it.
We don’t know the specific purpose and usage of the mask, and many people even suspect that this kind of mask does not exist at all.”
At that moment, Mu Ziyi immediately understood!
A vulture going to the dressing room to change its mask...
He already took the stolen money and escaped with a white mask!
He did not become the Splitter. He could have simply taken the stolen money and escaped, enjoying the good life. But the vulture that came out of the waiting room later was a person who had been given orders by him in advance with a black mask and must be perfectly disguised as him! He
He and the other party must have changed clothes again, and because all the gangsters used paint to erase the cracks on their masks in order to sneak into the hostages, even if there were no cracks on the masks, they would not be discovered!
Ordinary people don't know the white mask at all, and as long as he deceives his accomplices, the white mask cannot convey living life, and then his accomplices can only become victims of making wedding dresses for him! He has snatched so many masks, giving
Once your family members change their masks, they can change their names and become completely different people!
How did this man named Vulture get the white mask? Or is he actually the corpse hunter of the Black Corpse Team?
At this moment, Mu Ziyi suddenly felt that the right side of the white mask on her face... began to feel very cold!
