Paintings of Terror
Chapter 87 Shadow 10┃Open the window in the middle of the night.
Because it was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and night will come in two or three hours, so everyone did not divide into too many groups for the sake of caution.
"Why don't you go outside and check? The pool and the labyrinth are obviously the most eye-catching signs in the whole painting!" Xin Beibei questioned.
Shi Zhendong said earnestly: "At present, it seems that there is nothing suspicious about these two things for the time being. We'd better concentrate on finding out the rooms in the castle."
Xin Beibei showed a regretful expression, but didn't say any more.
The rest of the people were divided into two groups to check the other buildings of the castle one by one, and then they were scheduled to return to the hall for dinner at 6:[-].
More than two hours passed quickly, and the two groups of people did not dare to waste time outside, and they all came back before dinner.
Qin Ci's team is in charge of the circular building: "The building has six floors, and it is the tallest building in the castle. The first to third floors are accessed from the stairs below. The layout is exactly the same as that of the fourth floor. There is a A semi-circular hall and a semi-circular room with a closed door, the current color of the door is log color, the inside is very empty, only one... a large empty glass jar stands in the room, about two meters high."
Everyone's heart was heavy, as if those empty glass jars were waiting for someone to fill them.
"You mean, the circular building has six floors?" Zhu Haowen, a member of another group, asked at this moment, "We are currently divided into five colors, so what is the purpose of the other floor? "
Qin Ci naturally couldn't figure it out: "The fourth, fifth and sixth floors are separated from the bottom. Our corridor leads to the fourth floor. If you want to go up to the fifth and sixth floors, you need to climb up the copper ladder outside the building. I was thinking Brother Ke's movements are more agile..."
Ke Xun understood: "I'll go up and have a look tomorrow."
Ye Ningchen still couldn't help asking: "How is the situation with Senior Zhang?"
Qin Ci's expression darkened: "The red liquid no longer spills out, and the stuff inside has become as big as a fist. If you don't look carefully, you will almost ignore it."
Regarding the shrinking of Zhang Tianwei's body, everyone seems to have become numb. The result of such shrinking is probably that it is completely squeezed out, and the last drop of color is also squeezed out.
"Where's Haowen's group? Did you find anything?" Shi Zhendong looked at Zhu Haowen.
Xin Beibei looked a little displeased, and turned her eyes directly to Ke Xun: "What new discoveries have the team leader made?"
Ke Xun thought Xin Beibei was a little funny, but the group didn't gain much just now, so they couldn't laugh at all: "We went to the most central building, but the gate was locked and couldn't be opened without a key. The same is true for the building, we had no choice but to go outside to see the pool and the maze.”
"You guys went to the maze?!" Xin Beibei was surprised.
"You seem to be very interested in the maze." Mu Yiran's eyes were a little sharp.
"I've always wanted to go to that maze, and I've seen it in movies before." Xin Beibei was a little aggrieved, "Any new discoveries in the maze?"
Ke Xun: "The structure inside the maze is very complicated. We only went around the outer circle, and haven't found anything wrong for the time being."
Zhu Haowen: "If possible, tomorrow we'd better stand on a commanding height to overlook the maze, and draw a map of its route, so that it will be easier to find the direction."
Xin Beibei looked at Zhu Haowen: "In other words, your group found nothing just now."
Zhu Haowen didn't bother to look at this woman, and directly looked at her boyfriend: "We found something wrong with the pool, and the coins inside have changed."
"Changes in coins? Is it different from what you observed in the morning?" Shi Zhendong asked.
Ke Xun nodded: "The reading in the morning was rather sloppy, and the observation was interrupted due to an accident upstairs. We only remember that there were coins with moon-shaped patterns on Zhang Tianwei in the pool at that time, and the coin representing He Yu At that time, no one took a closer look at the well pattern."
"What happened to those coins?" someone asked.
"The coins with the moon-shaped pattern are all gone," Ke Xun replied, "and we searched the entire pool, but we didn't find any coins with the well-shaped pattern."
"What does this mean? After a person dies, the coins representing their texture will disappear?" Shi Zhendong couldn't figure out the mystery, "But you clearly saw the moon-shaped pattern this morning. Could it be that... Zhang Tianwei was not dead at that time ?”
Zhang Tianwei had already been soaked in that blood-red bottle at that time. It was hard to imagine that that person hadn't died at that time.
There was a dead silence at the supper table.
It was Ye Ningchenyi who broke the silence: "If the same thing happens to me, please try your best to kill me."
Trying my best, what else can I do.
Although the dinner was sumptuous, everyone regarded it as a necessity to satisfy their hunger, and walked upstairs with heavy steps after barely eating.
The color in the hall is gradually darkening, and the night that belongs to this world is coming.
"Be extra careful tonight." Like last night, Mu Yiran was not in a hurry to leave the first floor.
"It's me who should say that," Ke Xun stood beside Mu Yiran, "The person most likely to have an accident tonight is Ye Ningchenyi in your room."
"The dangers that can be predicted are not the greatest dangers."
"You mean..."
Mu Yiran looked at the darkening indigo pattern on the clock: "The indigo is bright, and the blue is dark."
"That's right, no matter which color it is, it has nothing to do with our blue room." Ke Xun hugged his arm, "According to the principle of color addition, the victim of cyan, except our room is the green room."
If two corpses appeared tomorrow morning, one of them should belong to Ye Ningchenyi, and the other could be anyone in the blue room and the green room.
"I'm just wondering if the person related to cyan himself knows everything." Mu Yiran's words are meaningful.
"If you know, why don't you tell it, let's find a way together."
"It's hard to say, maybe it's because I'm afraid of being rejected, or maybe it's because of something else." Mu Yiran looked out the window at the pool and labyrinth that gradually turned gray, "No matter what, the danger at night is irresistible, so don't act rashly .”
"Of course it's about caring about me." Ke Xun's voice suddenly became relaxed - he has experienced too many lives and deaths, and some things can be separated from life and death.
Mu Yiran didn't speak anymore, because the night darkened, the thin curly grass patterns on his body were clearly black and white, and the whole person seemed to be transformed into a finely crafted print.
The two went upstairs one after the other and returned to the lobby on the second floor.
Although it is night, everything is a clear silhouette, such as light gray stairs, dark gray tables and chairs, and bottomless black floors and walls.
The bedroom door was a dazzling light gray in the dark, and it looked like there were only four of them at the moment, and the door in the middle was integrated with the wall at this moment, as if it had disappeared into the void.
Ke Xun returned to his own room, everything in it was the same as last night, and the patterns that belonged to the two ladies were lying on different beds.
"Team leader, we just said, why didn't anyone call for help when something happened last night." The polka dot pattern that belonged to Guo Lixia turned over, apparently facing Ke Xun, "If something happens again tonight, Will it remain silent?"
"Even if someone calls for help, it's impossible for us to go to another room to help." Xin Beibei's body looked like a narrow strip at night, and the small diamond-shaped patterns all over it made people dizzy.
Ke Xun didn't say anything, just lay down where he was last night.
Now facing the two women in the same room, my mood is a bit complicated. After all, the blue color can only be brought out from the blue room. Ke Xun firmly believes that he has not done this, so the only suspects are the two in the room. woman.
"You say, what secrets are hidden in that maze?" Ke Xun asked suddenly.
"There will never be a signature hidden there." Xin Beibei said.
“How come you see?”
"There are green plants there, and there are no other facilities. Unless you sign your name on a leaf, how can you find it?"
"Yeah." Ke Xun yawned and said nothing.
Maybe everyone was tired, and soon Guo Lixia's snoring sounded in the room.
Ke Xun didn't feel sleepy, and stared unblinkingly at the silhouette-like window and the black velvet-like night outside.
If you look carefully, the window panes are really like what Miao Zipei said, they are lilies of different shapes, but because of the complex composition, it is almost impossible to distinguish their original appearance.
About two hours later, Guo Lixia had already fallen into a deep sleep, and Xin Beibei was silent. When Ke Xun's upper and lower eyelids were fighting, the whole room fell into darkness unexpectedly.
Without any sleepiness for a moment, Ke Xun silently opened his eyes wide, trying to see through everything hidden in the darkness.
If, as previously guessed, this darkness belongs to a certain shadow, then what is the coverage of this shadow?Where is the reality of the shadow?
When people are in extreme danger, they often have something like a sixth sense. Ke Xun is like this at this time, as if he can confirm without any basis that this shadow is just passing by his window.
But when the darkness gradually left, Ke Xun almost screamed out.
The Morris pattern that belonged to the window is all gone!
This means that the windows of the room are fully opened.
Who did it?Is it the outsider or the insider?
Ke Xun remained motionless, hearing Guo Lixia's snoring in his ears, rolled his eyes, and suddenly found that Xin Beibei had changed his posture at some point, and was actually sitting on the opposite side of the bed.
Ke Xun said nothing, trying to make the other party think that he was still asleep.
Xin Beibei's diamond-shaped pattern stayed by the bed in a straight sitting posture, and because of the darkness, people didn't know where she was looking seriously.
Are you looking out the window?Are you still looking at Ke Xun's bed?
Xin Beibei sat upright for a few minutes before lying back on the bed.
Ke Xun looked at the open window, and found that he didn't have the strength to sit up and close the window. ——The whole person seemed to be collapsed on the bed. When the black shadow descended last night, I had a similar feeling.
Who opened the window?It should be Xin Beibei.
It could only be Xin Beibei, because the latch of the window was inside the house and it was impossible to open it from the outside.
What does Xin Beibei want to do?
Is Xin Beibei still Xin Beibei?
Did He Yu and Zhang Tianwei open the window from the room in this way last night?
Could it be that the black shadow can only open the window with the help of the people inside?So is the shadow a shadow or an entity?
Ke Xun looked at the empty gray window frame, the whole window was like an open door, inviting something outside.
"Why don't you go outside and check? The pool and the labyrinth are obviously the most eye-catching signs in the whole painting!" Xin Beibei questioned.
Shi Zhendong said earnestly: "At present, it seems that there is nothing suspicious about these two things for the time being. We'd better concentrate on finding out the rooms in the castle."
