System [I am in a horror dungeon]
Chapter 120 The Hidden Past
Not only An Yi was present, but everyone else was also somewhat surprised.
The mayor watched coldly from the side. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a voice coming from outside. Confused, he walked to the window and saw that it was the townspeople gathered at his door.
The mayor turned around and glanced at the few people, feeling puzzled. There had never been an accident at this time before. What was going on?
After lighting a stick of incense in the room, he hurriedly opened the door and went out.
Smelling the incense, everyone felt weak, except Chu Lingxian. She stood up, walked to another table and extinguished the incense in the incredulous eyes of the others.
Then he opened the window and stood by it watching the mayor deal with the people outside.
When the smell dissipated a little, they found that they could move and talk.
Lu Nanyin walked over to Chu Lingxian, looked at the farce outside, and asked her: "When did you come?"
"I got the mission from the pet store yesterday. It arrived at 10 this morning."
Xia Ji at the side said, "Ten o'clock, I wrote it to arrive at eleven o'clock."
"I'll arrive at 2 p.m." An Yi said later.
"That means everyone comes every hour, but isn't the time different here? I felt like someone came not long after I sat down. It was definitely not an hour."
Chu Lingxian nodded, "That's right, I was the first one to arrive. If you calculate the time, the next person will arrive in about five or six minutes."
"Five or six minutes! But an hour has passed outside. Does time pass so quickly here?" Xia Ji looked around the room and felt that this room was more and more strange.
An Yi looked at the crowd outside who were becoming more and more agitated and asked, "What's going on with those people outside? Why are they here to cause trouble? Don't they usually obey the mayor's orders?"
The three of them turned their eyes to Chu Lingxian. In their hearts, she was the only one who could do this.
Lu Nanyin moved closer to her and asked in a low voice: "Are you feeling well? Is this why you went out last night?"
Chu Lingxian was listening to Lu Nanyin carefully. When she noticed someone approaching her quietly from behind, she raised her eyes and looked at them.
Lu Nanyin noticed her gaze and turned around to see An Yi almost lying on her back, and Xia Ji pulling her sleeve from behind.
When the two men realized they were discovered, they coughed a few times awkwardly, stood up straight, and turned to the other side.
"Last night was because..." Just as I was about to say something, I heard an angry shout outside.
"How is that impossible? Have you forgotten everything you did?"
There was a lot of noise outside. When the mayor turned around and saw them, his eyes were filled with anger.
Chu Lingxian gave him a provocative smile in response.
Pulling Lu Nanyin to the second floor, An Yi and Xia Ji immediately followed when they saw them.
When he was going up the stairs, the mayor pushed open the door and chased after him. The people behind him also followed and pulled him by his clothes, asking him to give an explanation.
The mayor was restrained, and several people hurried upstairs to the hidden secret room in the mayor's bedroom. As soon as they entered, they smelled a strong smell of blood.
Fortunately, there was the potion given by Chu Lingxian. When they saw the scene in the secret room, they couldn't help but shudder.
This, this is a bloody mess!
There were all kinds of knives hanging on the wall, covered in blood. Next to it was a whole wall of display screens, which were surveillance cameras of various places in the town. In addition to these, there was also a door next to it, but no one knew what was inside.
A few people walked cautiously along the wall to the small door. Chu Lingxian signaled them with his eyes to run away first if anything happened.
Then he put his hand on the door handle and slowly opened the door. What was behind the door was not as scary as it seemed. It was the person who had fallen from the first floor before and was now unconscious.
They were slightly relieved, but Lu Nanyin's words made them worried again.
"Are they really them? They shouldn't be pretending, right?"
The three people's eyes fell on her. Lu Nanyin continued, "When I went out to the hotel before, someone pretended to be An Yi and Xia Ji to ask me questions. If I wasn't familiar with you and knew your relationship, I might not have recognized you at first. But later when I went to the pet shop, I saw them at the corner and thought they were following us, but when I came out, their figures changed. I guess something happened to them while I was stewing the pets."
After hearing Lu Nanyin's words, the two hurriedly said that although they also went to the pet shop today, Xia Ji, like Chu Lingxian, got today's task after completing the task yesterday, while An Yi went to the pet shop by herself. The two stayed together in the morning and did not go to the hotel.
There was a commotion outside and the mayor was pushed to the second floor.
When they saw them, there was an uncontrollable murderous intent in their eyes. Behind them were the townspeople who were cursing.
After seeing them, the group of people gradually stopped talking and the bedroom was silent.
Chu Lingxian chuckled and played the records in Lu Nanyin's phone in front of everyone.
"How much do you know about these things?"
A man said tremblingly, "The first part is true, but the second part is..."
An Yi and Xia Ji also came forward curiously to take a look. After hearing what the man said, they asked, "So where do we start counting the rest?"
An old lady came out with a cane and told everyone, "Recovery from the small town is fake."
Lu Nanyin had personally experienced all these things, so she asked the old lady: "Grandma, what exactly happened later?"
"It's true! Our fathers' generation tightened their belts, lived frugally, and worked hard to reclaim the abandoned farmland and plant the few grains they had. We could only go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables and boil them to eat.
Later, food finally grew and we survived. During those months, people died every day from starvation.
Then, the owner of the hotel came with his family, gave us fruit seeds, taught us how to grow fruit and sell it. After that, every family had some savings, so they built new houses and started doing business with outsiders.
But the village chief at that time told us that outsiders cannot be trusted. Think about the factories back then. He said that outsiders are all black-hearted. This was what the father of the current mayor said.
He also said that the owner of the hotel was not a good person and wanted to bribe us all to make money for him. Later, that incident happened and the hotel owner was killed and the owner's wife was also gone.
The mayor appeared in a black robe and said that it was outsiders like you who killed them. He had already arrested those people and punished them according to the rules.
After that, as you can see, the hotel was managed by a manager and the rules of the town could not be violated, otherwise there would be penalties.
But we didn’t expect that, we all thought that the heaviest punishment would be to drive those people out, but it turned out to be…”
