217 The Truth 1

 "So...what's going on?"

When Lou Qin fell down on the steps in front of the station and asked this sentence out of breath, the Lou brothers and sisters had never looked so miserable.

The two of them were so high-spirited and nonchalant on the train that they had long since been smeared with dust, blood, and scars; the brother and sister's clothes were all in tatters, and they were as embarrassed as homeless people on the street - a

One person lost a shoe and had a bare foot covered in dust; another person's hair was blown off, and his face was covered in black ash because he was too close to the explosion, and his facial features could not be seen clearly.

After resting for more than an hour, the two people, who were in pain all over their bodies, finally gradually recovered a little bit of their hearing.

"Hey, how could he be my brother?" Lou Qin spat out a few mouthfuls of dirt, her little face covered in plaster and blood stained with confusion - her hearing had just returned and she wasn't very old yet.

Emmanuel's voice was still very high: "If a normal person twists his neck 180°, wouldn't he die long ago?"

Lou Ye glanced at her, feeling both innocent and wronged at the same time: "I just heard you say 180°, it's all such a mess... When have I ever done such a thing, why don't you screw me and see!"

"It's true. If you don't believe it, ask Lin Sanjiu——"

Lin Sanjiu was feeling distressed about the consciousness she had finally cultivated. After hearing this, she was brought back to her senses. When she looked up, she saw that the two children were looking up at her, waiting for her to explain. She suddenly felt a little guilty.

Although she succeeded in rescuing the real Lou brothers and sisters, to be honest, luck accounted for a large proportion - there are still many doubts that have not been clarified in the so-called truth she deduced.

However, neither child is stupid. Maybe after hearing her speculation and confirming it with each other, the truth of the matter can be restored.

Lin Sanjiu thought for a while, sorted out her thoughts, and started writing on her "bones". Both the Lou brothers knew that this time it would definitely not be able to be explained in a dozen words, so they were very patient.

They each cleaned their wounds, glancing at her from time to time, for fear of missing some words.

"The person who turned his head 180 degrees cannot be a living person; what we saw at that time was indeed a ghost." Although the consciousness has been consumed a lot, fortunately after these days of practice, the consciousness has improved.

It was so flexible that it seemed as if it had become a part of Lin Sanjiu's body. He finished writing this sentence in a blink of an eye.

"Hey, but I haven't relaxed my surveillance on him," Lou Qin pointed at the brother beside him, who listened blankly with his mouth open: "I didn't see when the person was changed! Besides, there is no one of my own.

If you cooperate, how can the Yin spirit come and go without a trace?"

"Have you forgotten that there are problems with the building itself?" After Lin Sanjiu finished writing this sentence, she suddenly felt that there were some things that were difficult to explain. She immediately planned to go over the matter from the beginning - there were many things that she didn't know herself.

What they have figured out can be just enough for the brother and sister to make up for it.

"I think the key lies in the residential buildings - for some reason, this residential building has become a ghost, but it can't move. So when we first entered the building, we had already become its target.

"The first point Lin Sanjiu wrote, after personally experiencing the scene of the building deforming, it was not difficult to imagine that the Lou brothers and sisters nodded when they saw it.

"I don't know how this kind of building ghost usually, uh, 'hunts'," Lin Sanjiu considered the words and continued to write: "But you two are obviously a tough nut to crack."

After this period of time, Lin Sanjiu also figured out some of the rules at Ruyue Station.

Unlike elsewhere, the fallen species here cannot directly kill people - the so-called fallen species are all ghosts formed for various reasons after ordinary people have been completely eroded by dark matter. They can only kill the same people.

People who have been corrupted by dark matter start.

It is actually not difficult to meet this requirement; any outsider, as long as he breathes the air here and drinks the water here, will be slowly eroded - not to mention that the Yin spirits can speed up this process.

But the Lou brothers and sisters were different. When the two brothers entered the building, except for their eyes, almost no part of their bodies had been eroded; no matter how good their quality was, at least they were covered in equipment from head to toe, and it was said that there was a pole in their nasal cavity.

With a small dark matter filtering device, it is undoubtedly unlikely to kill them in the same way as Lin Sanjiu.

The biggest difference between residential buildings and other ghosts is that they cannot move. Without actively looking for prey, every prey that comes to the door is extremely valuable, so this building cleverly uses a curve to save the country.

Having equipment does not mean that it is foolproof - all the subsequent actions of the "Residential Building" must have been based on this speculation, and the two brothers and sisters of the Lou family do have a weakness: areas that cannot be covered by clothes are susceptible to damage.

No protection.

As for Lin Sanjiu in the conscious body, it is like a piece of wax stuck on the dinner plate. It can neither be eaten nor thrown away. Apart from being a bit of a hindrance, it is not included in the target range at all.

"Could it be that... the way to use dark matter to corrode us is to find a ghost to pretend to be us?" Lou Qin seemed to understand, but still didn't seem to understand.

"I understand what she means, you are so stupid." Lou Ye did not forget to reply to his sister, "One is pretending to be you, the other is pretending to be me, and the two teams are approaching us at close range in two places... No matter what

It’s much easier to get started!”

Lin Sanjiu nodded in agreement - what's more, Lou Qin also mentioned something: once you are frightened at Ruyue Station, the invasion of dark matter will become easy. And the strange situation in the past period is indeed

It successfully caused the brother and sister to be in constant panic. Even Lou Qin said that he must have been corroded by dark matter long ago.

"The thing pretending to be you, I guess, is the person who died in the building before." Lin Sanjiu wrote another sentence, although she had no basis for this part, it was all speculation: "Maybe it's like being attached to the belly of a big fish.

Just like the small fish in the sky, they also have to rely on residential buildings so that these new ghosts can 'survive'."

As for whether they were ever evolvers, and whether they were able to turn into the Lou brothers and sisters because of their past abilities... If we don't return to the residential building, these questions will never be answered.

"I understand this part." There was a deep bloody cut on Lou Qin's face. She stretched out her hand to touch it, but unexpectedly she just took a breath of cold air. Her mind was still on the mystery of the residential building: "

But sometimes they are human, and sometimes they are degenerate species, I still can’t figure it out.”

This place was so complicated that even Lin Sanjiu couldn't explain it well - she thought for a while and just wrote: "I think that residential building used a 'building block' method to confuse us."

"Build blocks?" The two children stared at these words, both in disbelief. "What do you mean?"

If this speculation were to be written down in full, I'm afraid it would be too many and confusing, and the explanation may not be clear until tomorrow - not to mention, there are many places where two children are needed to supplement her speculation. Thinking of this, Lin Sanjiu wrote

: "You two each recount what happened to you after entering the building."

The two children looked at each other and recounted their experiences.

And just as Lin Sanjiu expected, the two experiences had a strange divergence from the beginning.

"After my brother's prank, we were looking for a house to live in that corridor..." Lou Qin just started, but was interrupted by Lou Ye: "Wait a minute! I don't care about that prank or anything like that..."

Have I told you, I haven’t done it!”

"Have you forgotten what you did? Besides, when did you tell me -"

Seeing that chaos was about to happen, Lin Sanjiu quickly wrote "Don't worry, keep talking", which made the two children calm down temporarily.

"It's strange to say that every house is shabby, but the one my brother found is so beautiful... So we moved in. At midnight, there was some noise, Lin Sanjiu, why don't you go out?

Did you check the situation? But he never came back, so I woke my brother up to look for you. Unexpectedly, he was gone for several hours. I looked around for you and saw no one, so I had to stay alone in the house.

Wait here..." When Lou Qin talked about this experience again, he shuddered as if he had returned to that strange night. "Fortunately, you came back later."

...While Lou Qin was waiting for her brother and Lin Sanjiu to return to their room, Lin Sanjiu found no one there after returning and found the lobby on the first floor. As a result, she met a pair of Lou brothers and sisters at the elevator entrance on the 15th floor.

.

When she wrote this paragraph down, Lou Qin's eyes widened when she heard about it for the first time.

Lou Ye was holding back his words but couldn't speak, and his face wrinkled up. When Lin Sanjiu finally signaled him to speak, he immediately let out a breath and said in rapid succession: "So there was a problem from the beginning! I

I never did any pranks like that. I settled directly in that beautiful house, and it was Aqin who found the house... By the way, I never saw Lin Sanjiu at that time. Aqin told me to go around.

Check out the environment and be back soon."

Having said this, he also realized that the people around him at that time were definitely not alive, and his face couldn't help but turn a little pale: "...I never saw you come back later. We went out to look for you, and happened to see an elevator going up. As soon as the door opened,

That’s you.”

Unexpectedly, Lin Sanjiu's experience and Lou Ye's experience were connected here - Lin Sanjiu felt that he had one less doubt, and he was busy when he heard the sound of the toilet flushing in the bathroom, and Lou Ye happened to catch him.

He flew upstairs and saw Lou Qin's body and wrote down this paragraph. The two children were stunned for a moment.

"Ah, that means the timeline is like this -" Lou Ye said while making gestures on the ground. "We entered two houses at the same time. Afterwards, Lin Sanjiu went out and came back and found that

No one came to find us; at about this time, Jialouqin told me to look for you, and then met you in the elevator, and you went back to the house where I was with us. During this time, in Jialouye

After we went out, Aqin searched for us alone, but she didn't find us... It wasn't until Lin Sanjiu flew upward that you met the real Aqin."

Although it is still confusing, I have finally sorted this section out.

"No wonder..." Lou Qin's face turned a little pale. "I felt a little strange when I was in the corridor. I even looked at the angle of the corner of the wall... because no matter what I thought, if I twisted a living person's neck into

That seems a bit impossible...and my brother has never had a special item worn on his chest. It turns out that from that time on, he was no longer my brother."

"But how did that residential building achieve this?" Lou Ye asked. "When Aqin was looking for someone, how could he miss our floor?"

"She didn't miss it... when we escaped, we actually saw its technique - or should be said, part of the technique." Lin Sanjiu wrote, "It couldn't be simpler to say: the inside of the building

Every room and every corridor is like a small building block that can be flexibly arranged and reorganized."

"For example, at the time of the prank, when the real Lou Ye turned a corner and walked into another corridor alone, this corridor has actually been moved away and replaced by another corridor with fake Lou Ye. I'm afraid

It was the degenerate species who had a twisted neck when he died. He didn't recover for a while, and then a mistake appeared, so he quickly used the excuse of joking to fool him... As for the method of 'adjusting building blocks', he has used it many times, and it has almost always failed.

, but it confused us all."

Lou Ye recalled it and found that he hardly noticed anything wrong after walking into the corridor, and couldn't help but open his mouth in confusion.

Lin Sanjiu solved the first doubt in her mind and became more confident in her speculation, so she motioned to the brother and sister to continue talking - their experiences seemed like two randomly drawn lines, intersecting from time to time.

Sometimes they were far away, and there were many different places in between, which indeed answered a lot of questions for Lin Sanjiu.

The two of them had almost finished talking. Lin Sanjiu stopped and thought for a while, then sighed inwardly.

Although it is a bit strange to say this, this residential building can be called the most cunning opponent she has ever encountered since arriving at Kisaragi Station.

At every critical point, the residential building was able to be one step ahead of them - setting traps to confuse people and make the fallen species release smoke bombs...if Lin Sanjiu hadn't been half a bystander all the time.

, I'm afraid they have fallen into the trap and killed each other in the residential building.

"Now we can sort out the truth and falsehood at each time point." After Lin Sanjiu finished writing this sentence, he felt relieved. r1152
