With a "pop", the TV went dark. On the dark screen, the reflection of eight people huddled together was reflected. Eight blurry faces floated shadowily above the sofa.
With a "pop", the TV came on. The black-haired man with his back to everyone was still sitting motionless on the stool, and was gradually retreating towards everyone.
Nuyue turned the TV on and off twice more. When the TV screen lit up again, Ji Shanqing whispered: "No need to try again. Even if the TV is turned off, the Blue Wall Man's regression will not stop. This is obviously a timer." Technique."
"I wish I hadn't turned on the TV..." She lowered her head and threw away the remote control.
Without turning on the TV, there would be other ways to drag them in. After all, they were already in this world. No one there blamed her, but no one said anything for a moment - everyone was staring at the figure on the screen slowly approaching. The back of his head was caged in a frozen silence. The chirping of birds outside the window was unusually clear and sharp, as if it was specifically posted against the window for them to hear.
"We have to hurry up. Judging from the moving speed and distance of the man in the blue wall, we only have about fifteen minutes left before he sticks to the camera... When the time comes, he may turn back." Ji Shanqing As he said that, he held Lin Sanjiu's hand tighter, "In such a short period of time, eight people have to search separately to search this town."
"Want to be alone?" Someone couldn't help but asked, "Wouldn't that be too dangerous?"
"For us, the real danger comes when people on TV turn their heads." Ji Shanqing paused and then said: "But we can divide into groups of two to be safer."
"The straight-line distance between groups should not exceed three hundred meters." When Siba'an spoke, his calm attitude made everyone feel slightly reassured: "If there is danger, please warn us and I will arrive as soon as possible. "
"Those who have communicators and those who don't form a team," Lin Sanjiu quickly added. Ji Shanqing had already thrown a communicator to Siba'an, so the remaining three free-riders evolved. Anyone can be paired with someone who has a communicator; and he himself naturally has to be paired with his sister.
"Sister, I don't have the data of this world," he whispered to Lin Sanjiu when he went out, "I may be far away from the layer of the universe where the data flow library is located."
By the time everyone dispersed, less than two minutes had passed since they turned on the TV and saw the blue wall for the first time. Everything happened so fast that Lin Sanjiu couldn't even react to the situation; it wasn't until she raised her head that He kicked open the door of the next door, and finally managed to calm down and ask the first question: "We have no clues, and it's such a big town... If we search everywhere, fifteen minutes may not be enough, right?" "
"Yes," Ji Shanqing stood behind her and replied thoughtfully: "This stupid method of opening doors one after another, unless you are lucky, it is unlikely that anything will happen within fifteen minutes. reward."
"Then what should we do?" Lin Sanjiu strode in and scanned around: "...There is no one on the first floor. I'll go look for him in the kitchen."
Libao came back to his senses and trotted to follow her. He held her clothes tight and said, "In the process, maybe I can find some hidden clues... Sister, don't look for anyone, look for the blue wall."
Lin Sanjiu was startled and suddenly understood. If they were looking for someone, there would be too many places to search. Under the bed, under the sofa, in the closet... people could be hidden everywhere, which would greatly slow down the progress of their search.
Since the Blue Wall is a decisive key condition, then they can just look for the Blue Wall - without the Blue Wall, even if someone is there, how can they be regarded as Blue Wall people?
After speeding up, it took only about ten seconds for her to confirm that there was no one with blue walls in the house. The two of them went down to the first floor again and rushed out the door in rapid strides - as they passed through the living room, the TV screen "
It suddenly lit up, and on the screen was still the person sitting in front of a blue wall, with the dark back of his head slowly approaching them.
"Don't look," Lin Sanjiu pulled up the gift bag, "You said, it's just a timer, let's go."
The two searched the next house in the same manner, and another TV screen came on; but other than that, they found neither the blue wall nor any clues. Just when they were about to move on,
Suddenly, a distant female scream came from the communicator on Lin Sanjiu's waist: "I found it! He is here!"
So fast? Less than a minute passed before everyone started taking action - the two of them looked at each other, both of them a little surprised.
The woman who screamed was named Lu Hua, and she was one of the evolvers from the modern world. She seemed to be in the same group as Han Suiping. As soon as her screams ended, Han Suiping's voice rang out.
Because we are closer to the communicator, we are much clearer: "We are at No. 128 Pinecone Street, which is the fifth room on the right after coming out of the first house... Come here quickly!"
Lin Sanjiu quickly motioned for the gift bag to follow, turned her feet, and flew towards No. 128. Before she could get closer, she saw the shadows of Han Suiping and Lu Hua from a distance; no wonder they could immediately
Give me the house number - because they didn't even enter the house.
The entrance door of this house is painted blue.
A man was sitting on a stool in front of the blue door with his back to the sidewalk. His back was straight under his suit. His hair was dark and spread down like a spider web, covering the entire back.
back.
When Lin Sanjiu arrived, Han Suiping and Lu Hua were staring at the blue-walled man in front of them, not making a sound - in the dead silence, the only sound was the gentle rustle of the wind blowing through the branches and leaves. That blue
The people on the wall were motionless, and the several evolutionaries seemed to be frozen, motionless.
Siba'an, who originally said he would come as soon as possible, was not at the scene at this time. Lin Sanjiu just had doubts in her mind when she heard the communicators on her and Han Suiping's waists rang at the same time, making her jump;
What came out of the communicator was Sbaan's voice: "We also found the Blue Wall Man...in a nursery."
"Me, we are too..." Nu Yue followed. "Although it's not a wall... he is sitting in front of a blue curtain."
"Don't act rashly," Siba'an ordered in a deep voice, "don't get close to him."
The man with the blue wall at the door still didn't respond at all.
Several evolvers looked at each other and took a few steps back together, retreating to the road.
"Why are there so many people with blue walls?" Lu Hua asked in a shaky voice.
"No, it's not the same," Libao held Lin Sanjiu's hand and whispered, "The Blue Wall Man on TV has shoulder-length hair. This Blue Wall Man's hair is too long... Hey,
Is there anything different about your Blue Wall people over there from TV?"
"If you say so, yes, yes," Nuyue replied hurriedly, "The one we saw has his head tilted..."
"The one I found is standing in front of a blue wall." Siba'an said. "The blue wall man on TV is still retreating. Since the timer is still running, does it mean that we have not found the real target yet? "
The Blue Wall Man that everyone found was more or less different from the one on TV... Lin Sanjiu couldn't figure out what this meant for a moment. When he lowered his head and was about to ask a question into the communicator, he only heard "clang" There was a sound in front of me that sounded like the legs of a chair being dragged across the road.
The back of a head covered with black hair appeared in her field of vision, only a few steps away from her.
"Spread out," Ji Shanqing grabbed her hand and shouted to Han Suiping and the others: "Spread out, don't let him touch you!"
The four people split into two directions and immediately ran out from behind the man with the blue wall. After Lin Sanjiu rushed out, she looked back and found that what she saw was still the back of the man with the blue wall, which was only about twenty meters away from her. Distanced.
"He is chasing you," Han Suiping shouted through the communicator, "He is getting further and further away from us!"
Lu Hua faintly shouted: "Can they see the face of the man with the blue wall?"
It was too late to answer. Lin Sanjiu just wanted to speed up again - but Ji Shanqing's breathing was clear and heavy, and it was obvious that he could not keep up. Every step he took seemed to hit the road, as if he was falling. One step would cause her to fall. When the sound of the chair legs scraping the ground was heard again, she did not look back. She just stopped and grabbed Ji Shanqing, raised her arms and threw him to the sidewalk in front of her, shouting: "You Let’s go!”
The dragging sound of the chair legs stopped against her back.
