my cthulhu game

Chapter 196 Current Sanity: 0
Fuyuki and Kuroda groped forward in the dark corridor.Both of them turned on their mobile phones, but the light of the mobile phones could not penetrate the bottomless darkness in the tunnel at all.

"My God, this is..." Kuroda made a dreamy voice.

"It's a mine tunnel." Fuyuki leaned over, stroking the cold mine rails under his feet.

What lies beneath the office is not a darkroom at all... but a tunnel leading deep underground.

……

Chen Qiang and others saw a large, empty office in front of them. Several documents were scattered on the table, and the wastebasket in the corner was knocked over by someone.

"Please come in." The priestess pretended that nothing happened, and made a "please" gesture with human etiquette.

The priestess is very familiar with the situation in the office, and can tell at a glance that an unexpected visitor has broken into the office.But not necessarily the investigators.

[Chen Qiang failed the detection check 75/72]

[Helena's detection check failed 83/55]

[Mrs. Megan's detection check is 86/90 successful]

[Cecile's detection check failed 97/46]

"I'll go first." Sisi Lu rushed in front of Chen Qiang.

Mao Mei was completely focused on protecting Chen Qiang, and kicked the metal threshold of the anti-theft door.Cecile, who lost her balance, staggered suddenly. Thanks to Helena who was next to her in time, she didn't fall down...

Suddenly, the door fell into a small "congestion".

"You seem to be in trouble," Mrs. Meghan, who is experienced in on-site investigations, whispered to the priestess while everyone's attention was focused on Mao Mei, who was in a natural dull mode. "Do you need help? I don't want us to talks were discovered by the intruders."

[Robin Lawyer's Listening Test 15/30 Success]

"Mrs. Megan, what's going on?" Not far away, Lawyer Robin, who didn't care about Cecile's situation at all, asked in surprise when he heard Mrs. Megan's words.Behind him, everyone filed in.

[Robin's Lawyer's detection check failed 74/29]

[Qin Lingxue failed the detection check 84/44]

[Sayako failed the detection check 53/34]

[Ancient poetry sound detection check failed 73/35]

Mrs. Megan glanced at everyone.Except for Chen Qiang who showed an inscrutable smile, everyone else looked like they didn't know why.

Chen Qiang knew that Mrs. Megan must have discovered something, but the problem was that he didn't know what Mrs. Megan had discovered.

Just keep smiling at times like this.

"We can handle it." The voice of the priestess became a lot stiffer.

"This room has just been burglarized." Mrs. Megan didn't help the ghouls hide the truth. There are a few clues."

"Sounds like a low-level thief," Lawyer Robin crossed his arms, "Do I need to ring the alarm? Or catch the thief?"

The atmosphere at the scene became tense instantly.Helena held her chin, as if she was deep in thought; Xiaoyezi looked around alertly, fearing that the prisoner was still hiding somewhere in the room; Cecilu, who felt a little ashamed, quietly took a few steps closer to Chen Qiang and Qin Lingxue. , holding the handle of the short dagger at his waist.

If the skeleton eaters here are unable to protect their safety... Cecilu thought, then everyone can only choose to protect themselves.

Only Keshira still looked out of the ordinary, concentrating on admiring the flowers and plants in the office.

The priestess pondered for a moment.

A sudden intruder, this kind of thing was completely beyond her expectations.

But the plans of the skeleton eaters cannot be disturbed by any unexpected circumstances.

"Please wait for a while," the priestess bowed slightly to the crowd, "We will solve the problem of our skeleton eaters by ourselves. Until then, I will always be with you to ensure your safety."

Everyone nodded.If the priestess left alone, everyone should really wonder if the ghouls "have other ideas."

But the priestess had a different emotion in her heart.

That's fine... the priestess thought.

There are more people from the other party than expected.If they were introduced into the mine at once, these experienced investigators might become unnecessarily suspicious.Maybe they will divide into two waves, leaving the important Chen Qiang and others on the ground.

The only person the skeleton eaters wanted to befriend was Chen Qiang.

Except for Chen Qiang, no one else is entitled to be entertained by the great Mordiggian.There is no need to pay too much attention to their feelings.

……

Fuyuki and Kuroda in the mine tunnel were still in shock.

Since the Taisho era, the mining industry in Hokkaido has been an important pillar industry in the area.Since the early years of the Showa era, Japan has looted many laborers from the peninsula and Huaguo across the sea and forced them to work here, and the local Ainu people have not escaped the fate of being enslaved.

After the defeat of Japan, the laborers were liberated, and the minerals here were basically exploited by local people. Finally, under the suppression of official policies, it declined year after year until it was completely abandoned.

Over-exploitation of coal mines has seriously damaged the local environment. In addition to labor costs and environmental protection considerations, Japanese officials do not want the mining industry to affect the local tourism industry.

"This place has been abandoned for at least 30 years," Fuyuki sighed. The alleyways extending in all directions are like a huge maze. This mine is older than him, and it may have been mined since his grandfather was a child. "It is well preserved. Well."

The trap door is closed, but the air in the pit is still fresh.This means that there must be other exits here, Fuyuki thought.

[Kuroda detection check 28/30 success]

"Forget about that..." Kuroda's voice seemed to be trembling, "Fuyuki-kun, come and take a look at this! The railway tracks here..."

"What's so surprising about mere mine rails?" Fuyuki sneered, "Maybe it was a century ago..."

"It's new." Kuroda said fearfully.

"what?"

"The rails are new," Kuroda repeated, reconfirming the condition of the sleepers and ash, "and they are still in use."

The two looked at each other.A chilling feeling climbed into the hearts of the two of them.

"Fuyuki-kun," Kuroda became more and more convinced that the two of them had broken into the headquarters of some mysterious gang, "let's go!"

"Don't be afraid. Isn't this just verifying my previous guess?" Fuyuki suppressed the panic in his heart, "The cattle farm on the ground is just a cover. They use the mines in the past, and I don't know what they are doing."

In fact, Fuyuki didn't want to run away directly, but now that there was no way out, they could only bite the bullet and walk in, looking for other exits.

I don't know how long it has been--

"Fuyuki-kun, is it getting cold?" Kuroda shivered suddenly.

"It must be an illusion." In fact, Fuyuki also noticed the sudden drop in temperature, but he was unwilling to admit this abnormal phenomenon. "My father often took me out to play in winter. Sometimes it's not really cold, it's just an illusion. "

The two turned a corner.A quaint wooden door appeared in front of the two of them.

"It's the exit." With a relaxed expression on Fuyuki's face, he reached out to push the door.

"Wait..." Kuroda realized something was wrong.
