Nightmare Attack

Chapter 4 The Villa
A thick fur carpet was laid under the luxurious sofa, and the fireplace not far away was dark, with ashes left by the burning firewood.

The night has taken over the world, they shouldn't be able to see so clearly, but the crystal chandeliers above their heads are still on, and the reflected light will cut the future guests into pieces.

The villa also has electricity being supplied.

"Look around first," the strong man retracted his gaze from the chandelier, "Let's go together, don't separate."

Soon they found a large amount of food in the restaurant's refrigerator, including vegetables, rice noodles, meat, and even a few snacks.

It looks very fresh, as if it was put in not long ago.

But judging from the dust on the ground, that's impossible.

And the focus of everyone's attention is obviously not here. The strong man looked at the food without any surprise expression on his face. After a long while, he said lightly that at least we won't be starved to death.

There was the sound of water splashing from behind, Jiang Cheng turned his head, and found that the woman with a mole on her lips turned on the faucet, and clean water flowed out.

After turning off the tap, she turned to look at the others, and said slowly, "We won't die of thirst either."

Immediately after, they found a large amount of firewood in a remote small room like a storage room.

The piles of firewood are stacked neatly next to each other.

The second floor is the living place, with a master bedroom, a study, and two small bedrooms, in addition to a locked room at the end.

It can be seen that both the strong man and the woman are interested in the locked room, but the two of them tacitly did not propose to break the door to go in and have a look.

The stairs leading to the third floor were locked by a black iron door, the strong man shook, but the door did not move at all.

The group retreated to the living room on the first floor.

Everyone has spent most of the day in this world, especially after a car accident and a long journey, and they are cold and hungry at this time.

The brawny man suggested that he take the middle-aged man to fetch firewood for the fire, the woman, Jiang Cheng, and the fat man to cook, and the girl and the male clerk were left to clean up the house.

Jiang Cheng stared at the ingredients on a table in confusion, and the woman sneered and ignored him.

Fortunately, Fatty is a person who can cook. He is very good at cooking with knives. After a while, the fragrant food will be served, and he will fry an egg for everyone attentively.

The living room near the sofa has been cleaned up, and everyone is sitting around the closet, eating with bowls.

The fire in the closet was burning vigorously, making a crackling sound.

After dinner, everyone got together to discuss the mission.

But the discussion came and went and finally turned into a quarrel between a strong man and a woman. This is something that can't be helped. After all, the task has just begun, and there are very few clues, and these two are the people who have the most say.

Judging by their familiarity, it is obvious that they have successfully completed several missions.

Late at night.

The strong man advocated that everyone sleep in the living room, but the woman always insisted that everyone should sleep in the bedroom on the second floor, on the grounds that there might be clues there.

In the end, the two broke up unhappy, and the girl chose to go with the woman, and the two walked towards the stairs. When they were about to reach the stairs, the male clerk suddenly ran over.

Jiang Cheng guessed that the strong man's two slaps left a psychological shadow on him.

In this way, the strong man, the middle-aged bald man, Jiang Cheng, and the fat man stayed in the living room for the night, and the other three went to the bedroom upstairs.

"Idiot!" The strong man scolded in a low voice, looking at the backs of the few people leaving.

Sleeping in the living room is not so particular, and the rest are all men. There are three long sofas, one for each person, and the other person just keeps watch.

The strong man said that he would be in the first shift, then took out a pocket watch from his pocket, opened the cover, and placed it on the small table in the middle.

"It's about 10 p.m. and dawn at 6 p.m., for a total of 8 hours. There are exactly 4 people here, each of whom is guarding for 2 hours, so that everyone can have enough time to rest."

Just as the strong man was about to continue speaking, he saw the fat man in front of him staring at the pocket watch on the table with a strange look.

"Don't look at it, the time is inaccurate," he paused and explained, "All clocks brought into the dream world will be disrupted, and its only function now is to keep time."

The time displayed on the pocket watch is 4:18, which obviously does not match the reality.

Since Jiang Cheng and Fatty are both newcomers, the strong man said a few more words, telling them that it is normal for any situation in this world that goes against common sense of science.

What they need to do is to find the clues hidden behind the abnormality through various abnormalities, and then crack the mission and leave here.

Jiang Cheng raised his hand, and the strong man looked at him and asked, "Do you have anything to say?"

"Since you have escaped from the nightmare world, why did you come back?"

"I'm just escaping temporarily, but it's not the end." The strong man sighed, "By the way, no matter how many injuries you suffered in the dream world, as long as you still have a breath, you will return to reality intact after the mission is over."

"Then how can we completely break away from the nightmare barrier?" The bald middle-aged man raised his head, his voice was hoarse, giving off an uncomfortable feeling.

The strong man glanced at him, and said impatiently: "Don't ask such stupid questions, you are not a newcomer, you should understand that this question is just like we can't figure out what time we are in this world. Unresolved question."

The middle-aged man had a gloomy face and stopped talking.

Jiang Cheng raised his hand for the second time.

The strong man looked at him helplessly, "Just ask what you want to ask, without raising your hand."

"It should be sometime between the end of March and the middle of September 2006," Jiang Cheng said seriously.

The strong man was stunned for a while, and the middle-aged man who had lowered his head was also stunned. The fat man also stared at Jiang Cheng suspiciously, not knowing what medicine he was selling in the gourd.

"How do you know?" the strong man asked.

Jiang Cheng unhurriedly took out a small bag from his pocket and handed it to a position closer to the rest of the people. Several people could clearly see that it was a bag of Dajiyuan small bread.

Jiang Cheng turned the bread bag over and pointed to a line of small characters on it: The production date was March 2006, 3.Shelf life is 18 months.

Then he tore the bag open in front of everyone's eyes, pulled a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it for a while, then slammed his neck, swallowed it, thought about it, and said, "It tastes good, it's very soft, and it's not damp, considering that it is With storage in the refrigerator, I think the date may be further advanced."
