, the four of them held their breath and stood guard by the door without saying a word. After waiting for a full five or six minutes, they finally relaxed their vigilance. They looked at each other, and it was Abi who whispered in a breathy voice: "Maybe...
Are you leaving from the door?"
"Yes," Cuining agreed in a low voice: "Just walk forward from the door and you will enter the forest in a few minutes..."
"What else did you see besides the black shadow of the head?" Burns asked.
None of them doubted whether Yaichiliu had seen it wrong - Yaichiliu just wanted to smile bitterly when he thought of this. Since he was so dazzled just now, he has lost confidence in himself. Unexpectedly, the members of his group still treat him like this.
trust.
No, thinking about it carefully, he should have read it right just now. Although he felt like he was carrying a time bomb all the time, even if the worst case scenario happened, it would not make him create a shadow out of thin air.
Hallucination. After all, in his birthplace, all they could see was...
Wu Yiliu suppressed the thought in time, along with the green fear that was evoked by it for an instant.
"I only saw a shadow, like someone standing outside the window looking in." Wu Yiliu lowered his voice, and when he looked back, he found no one outside the window, but when he turned his head again, the shadow was still there.
Having said that; in the darkness, the expressions of the other three people became tighter and tighter. Even though they knew that what they saw was not a normal human being, they still locked the doors and windows tightly.
"Besides, since the copy doesn't care about us speaking out loud, I have a question to ask."
Liu Yiliu paused for a moment, and in the darkness, carefully stretched out his feet and made two circles around him - and the toes of his boots indeed hit a pair of shoes in front of the long table at the door. Not far from the entrance to this wooden house, there is a sofa.
There was a long table with decorations placed behind the sofa, and the shoes stood neatly in front of the long table, as if a person was wearing them, standing there, stretching his waist and looking at the sofa.
"None of us took off our shoes, so these shoes..." Wu Yiliu thought that he was lying on the sofa in trance just now, and couldn't help but feel a slight chill on his back. "When did you appear here?"
The other three people followed his instructions and looked down, and they all fell silent. It was almost as if Wu Yiliu could hear their silent surprise, just like he did just now - "Whose shoes are these?"
"I don't remember, but it seems that they were not here when we left." Abi said first, "We were busy when we first came in, going in and out. If there were shoes here, they would have been discovered... Come back
When I was wearing it, I thought they were your shoes." She said the last half of the sentence to Wu Yiliu.
Yachiyanagi remembered that when he turned over the sofa to turn off the lights, when his feet landed next to the long table, it seemed that he didn't have these shoes yet. Did they appear after turning off the lights?
"These are newly appeared copies, so they cannot be left behind by previous evolvers." Wu Yiliu squatted down and checked the pair of hiking boots; judging from the size, they should be a pair of women's shoes. "This shows that,
They must be part of the contents of this copy."
"Speaking of which," Burns said suddenly, "there's more than just a pair of shoes here."
"What do you mean?" Abit turned his head abruptly. Above the fireplace at the other end of the living room, cartoon figures were frozen on the TV screen, as if they were listening to them silently.
"When I was checking around the room, I found a folded jumper in the bedside table drawer." Pence replied, "I shook it open and looked at it. I thought it was a change of clothes for us, but no matter
There are no other clothes in the closet or drawers."
He turned around and went into the house to take out the jumper; the clothes were obviously men's clothing, and even with Pence's physique, they were probably loose enough to wear.
There was a solitary pullover lying in the drawer, which was quite strange. No matter how Ichiliu guessed it, he couldn't guess what the purpose of displaying some clothes and shoes in this copy was. They put all the clothes and shoes on a chair next to the sofa.
Go up and don't move for the moment.
The dungeon seemed to have forgotten that it had forcefully asked them all to take a rest less than ten minutes ago. Although several people were standing and talking, there was no reaction at all. Probably because of encouragement, several people discussed it for a while.
, decided to split up and look for any other suspicious objects; however, they still did not dare to turn on the lights or take out the flashlights, so they could only explore around in the dark room.
"Cuining," Wu Yiliu called as calmly as possible, "will you come with me to look for her?"
Cuining obviously didn't expect that he would suddenly make this request. She was stunned for a moment and nodded. She seemed to be the kind of soft-spoken person who didn't have any opinions, especially on small things; she didn't even ask "What's wrong?"
, she followed Wu Yiliu into the kitchen.
When she opened and closed the cabinet door, Wu Yiliu was always watching her carefully from the corner of his eyes. Cuining tied her long hair into a low ponytail, revealing her entire face. No matter what angle she looked at, she looked...
There was no problem. Despite her soft character, she seemed to have no lack of courage; in the dark kitchen, where even daylight could not reach her, she dared to put her hand into the dark cave-like cabinet and fumble around.
The kitchen was not big, and apart from some necessary tableware and kitchen utensils, there seemed to be nothing extra. When they returned to the living room, Abi and Pence had not yet come out of the bedroom. After a brief look at the bathroom, the two
Sat down on the sofa in the living room.
At the moment when his body sank into the cushion, Yachiyanagi could clearly feel that the sofa cushion sank slightly - of course this was normal, especially Cuining also sat down next to him, but for some reason, he
I just feel a little uncomfortable somewhere.
"...So, I think this dungeon is a survival type." Cuining didn't seem to have this feeling, and explained softly for a while while he was lost in thought: "Especially now, the dungeon has obviously started to run, and there are still no rules.
, indicating that we have to figure our way out of this situation to survive... I think we should not leave here until the copy is finished."
This room may not be safe, Ichiyanagi thought to himself. "You just went to explore the scope of the dungeon. Did you get any results?"
"We walked separately into the forest. I walked for nearly ten minutes, and it was still the same forest as usual. I couldn't tell the difference..." Cuining's voice suddenly dropped midway through her words, as if she remembered something.
Same.
Wu Yiliu turned his head and found that she was staring at him. In those dark and slender eyes, the pupils seemed to be dilated like a cat.
"What are you doing?" she asked quietly.
What?
"What are you doing?" This time, Cuining's voice was softer, and she even trembled a little if she listened carefully.
Wu Yiliu didn't understand. When the other party lowered his eyelids slightly, he followed Cuining's gaze and lowered his head.
He was holding one of the hiking boots in his hand. He didn't know when he picked it up, and he was putting it on his feet step by step.
