Path of the Dead Prequel: Wings of Silver

"Block him! Stop that vacuum bomb!"I don't know where the brute force came from, Lao Dai picked up the big table and put it in front of him. He called the female soldiers and Krys to come forward quickly, and together with the four of me, we built a thick human wall. For a moment, my ears felt like they had lost their hearing. Everyone's lips were opening and closing like goldfish in a water tank; and their behavior also became like the super slow motion captured by a high-speed camera! I was feeling incomprehensible, and suddenly I felt the skin on my stomach vibrate violently. Next, when I looked again!

Something as dark as a toy flying saucer had penetrated my body, pierced the chests of the three people behind me, and shot into the dressing room! This thing was the poison from Fan Fat’s scorched teeth. The total explosion, the weird bomb fired!

"It’s over!"I lamented, and my eyes glowed with gold. When I was helped up, my whole body was sunk in the thick tar-like sebum, and my whole body was completely black! As the culprit, Fatty Fan had been dragged back to the living room by the staff. It was motionless in the corner! What stood in front of the camera crew was a giant stainless steel dining table. The Mexicans were holding it high, and it had been splattered with paint into a brutalist abstract painting!

People in the opposite window and in the hotel corridor were unaware of what had just happened. Whether the big explosion completely annihilated the evil spirits or annihilated the warehouse, everyone cheered loudly. The order could no longer be maintained. Countless people squeezed through the door frame and broke into 0514 to watch!

"Look at what this fat guy has done! You have to come in and disrupt the situation!"The detective was also disheveled. He came out of the bathroom angrily after washing his face, grabbed my collar and shouted:"This is one of your people, if anything happens to her, you must bear the consequences!"

"No, it's Dixie!" I felt chills running down my spine, and I hurriedly pushed him away and rushed towards the dressing room. When I opened the door, I saw a scene I least wanted to see, ruthlessly occupying my eyes. The large round mirror on the dressing table has been broken into pieces, and the whole room is soaked with grease, and filth is dripping down! The situation and scene are simply terrible!

The person who worries me is not leaking. Dixie.Wendy, the leading actress of Channel 9, mysteriously disappeared into the secret room!

Old Dai chased me into the dressing room, looking even more anxious. When he saw this scene, he felt as if all his strength had been drained from his body, and he suddenly fell to his knees. Land. Seeing this expression, I knew I had made a big mistake. Just when I was about to ask, the detective reluctantly took out his reading glasses, put them on and took a closer look. Then he took a deep breath and wiped away the cold sweat. My shoulder, indicating that we should go out with him first.

"Fortunately, we organized a human wall to resist this bomb, otherwise a large number of living people would have been wiped out and they would all have to go to jail!"

"How to say? Why can't I see where she is?"Seeing that he had quickly returned to the living room, I had to get up and chase him.

When I returned to the big house, the place was already crowded with people. The onlookers took out their mobile phones and were taking photos frantically. In addition to the piled equipment and cameras, There was barely an inch of carpet visible. A fat man with gray hair was squeezed among the sweaty people, that was Lao Ai. He looked at the messy walls, like the corridor at a riot scene, and couldn't help but tutted and asked the detective if he was done?

"Well, in theory, it can be said that Suite 0514 has been completely cleaned. In the future, whether you continue to use it as a warehouse, a dormitory, or even a takeaway, nothing will happen again. If you have any problems, you can always report it to me. Court!"Lao Dai smiled and took out his business card from his pocket and stuffed it into his hand. Then he lit a cigarette and looked sideways at the dressing room, as if waiting for the crowd to ask questions.

"Why was it that even after destroying all the reflective equipment and objects, that still couldn't stop the mutilated female ghost from rushing into the broken house?"The smelly female soldier and Krys supported each other and walked into the living room. They planned to go back to the guest room to wash off their bad luck first, so they asked

"Because of the camera, you ignored the camera crew’s camera! Have you seen this stainless steel dining table? It is the pocket that I have to tighten to take care of Paco! The detective proudly came to the center of the living room, pointed at the broken furniture, and said:"Getting rid of evil spirits is like catching a mouse in the house. If you cut off all its channels, it will eventually be forced into your pocket." inside! We can't destroy millions of other TV stations' equipment, so let's rely on it to replace the lens and completely annihilate it!"

"What exactly is the layout of your Pojia Jiji Technique?"Fan Pang, who was extremely angry, stood up and leaned against the wall and asked.

"From the beginning to the end, the warehouse was causing trouble, and the mutilated female ghost was just an image, detained in the illusion. The reason why she appears here is to break the shackles and return to heaven, so she must guide the residents to find the truth about her disappearance! This is the reason why there has never been any reports of passengers being killed since the incident. The culprit causing all this is some kind of unheard-of incarnation called the Countercurrent Sun! It’s not the Feiju game that you just know a little bit about, it’s far more advanced than the Jiuju game!"

"I've said it before, if you don't find people who are proficient in this in the dark world to help, just to save a few dollars, you are doomed to fail."The female soldier looked at Lao Dai with a dead smile and teased. She originally hated female announcers, but now she disappeared for no reason, which is exactly what he wanted.

The detective put his hands behind his back, closed his eyes and sighed,"Dark World? It's probably okay for those rats to break up the formation, but dealing with the wraith is just child's play in my opinion. Even if you call them all here, you still can't deal with it!"

"What kind of magic is this?"Pang Fan saw that Little Cherry was boiling with anger. He was afraid that if he continued talking, the dark world would be exposed. He hurriedly asked people to help her and Krys leave the warehouse. He crawled back to Lao Dai and asked,"Isn't the magic sun a celestial sign in the Arctic region? ?"

The so-called sundog refers to a certain natural phenomenon that occurs in the tundra and can generally be observed in the Arctic. It requires several stringent conditions. First, there must be cirrostratus cloud belts in the sky, and secondly, the clouds must be both It is thin and transparent, and finally there are ice crystals evenly distributed in the clouds. Only in this way can the illusion of several suns appear in the sky. But Charlotte is located in the south of the eastern United States. It has a temperate maritime climate, and Lao Dai finally called it an odd number. , what do these words imply?

"This refers to the angle, usually 22 degrees, 44 degrees, and 120 degrees. Do you understand? All are plural. But what was transmitted through that light door were all sundogs at odd angles, and they were from an upside-down perspective, so they were called countercurrent sundogs!"Although there are many astronomy enthusiasts in the crowd who know a little about this, they still can't help but whisper to each other after hearing such remarks.

What the detective said next is even more incredible. He denied that it was carefully arranged. Instead, something extraordinary appeared in this room of the warehouse, or in this location. It obviously knew that its life was on the verge of death, so it concocted a countercurrent sunrise and created a new world to seek refuge. In other words By the way, this thing may be the same kind of creature as the Descendant!

Then, the person who installed the ring and the woman pretending to be a resident were all pursuers. Finally, one day in 1972, an incident occurred in this big house. The well-known secret war caused the human bait to be dragged alive into the countercurrent Sunset and died miserably! This was not a big deal. What was even more terrifying was that they impacted the Sunset and created cracks, causing that day to be erased from the human world. , no matter the hotel staff or the surrounding residents, all memories were deprived! This is the major discovery in the bathroom that the detective initially questioned!

"Hello! Are you all crazy? Dixie has also disappeared like the fragrant fragrance she had in 1972. Is it time to have a celebration party now? I was so angry that I was shaking all over. I pointed at this group of people and shouted loudly:"Don't forget that she is your boss."!"

"Be patient, Dixie has not disappeared. In theory, she is still in the house. Before you come out, I have asked Agai to investigate. The detective waved his hand to interrupt my yelling, pointed at the monitor screen and said,"Look, if she is dead, what is in the window?""

"In fact, I have already noticed that you covet that white-collar bitch and have been fascinated by her! Forget it, I'm not interested in you anyway."Little Cherry flicked the cigarette butt from her fingertips and hit it on the brim of my hat, leaving a cloud of ash. She turned around and left. No matter how much I yelled, she refused to listen to my explanation. Just like that, she dragged her tired body back to her guest room, and then slammed the door. , and could not be opened from then on.

I had no choice but to return to the camera lens and watch Uncle Huzi and Agai playing with the projection monitor screen. Seeing my dazed expression, the girl with braces pointed at a small window and asked me to look at it. It is a dark gravel land. Although the pixels are very low, the lens is moving. Since this set of portable cameras was temporarily found, the sound cannot be connected, and naturally it is impossible to hear whether anyone is talking.

This set of pictures shows that currently The person wearing it was fine and could move freely, but he was trapped in some unknown space. Maybe the other person also realized this, so he deliberately stretched his wrist in front of the camera. It was Sister Di’s pink nail polish.

"Dixie is different from her appearance. She has experienced a lot and even been to the battlefield. She is a tough and successful woman."Uncle Beard took Fan Pang's Weed, puffed it a few times, punched him in anger, and asked:"Others have banned you from entering the house again, why do you have to mess around? Now that she has been found, how can we bring her back? It's such a shameless night"

"Me, how do I know what kind of sun dog this is? What kind of demon formation? It turned out that a few days ago, I had blown up that damn thing in the rooms on the left wing to the death. So when I see them dilly-dallying and hesitating, I feel anxious! Through the wall, I could hear all kinds of earth-shaking explosions inside, as well as people's screams. I also wanted to help the anchor, so I forced myself to do it. Who could have predicted the result? The three of them didn't even stop me. I thought Lao Dai let him go." Fan Pang glanced behind him and exclaimed,"Where's that Mexican?"

"Don’t you know how much you weigh? Are you blaming others for your fault? Who can stop you from going crazy with your body like a black bear? I asked him to go back to his hotel to look for things. It was very close to here, just a few blocks away, and we could get there and back in about ten minutes. Now that it has happened, it is useless to say more. In short, you must strictly follow my instructions next time. Forget it this time, I will wipe your ass first!"The detective waved to me, motioning to go to the window sill together, and said,"I have something to talk to you about."

I lit up a cigarette with a lonely look and raised my hands to the serious friends across the window, signaling that the evil spirits had been driven away and there was nothing left to see. Let's go home and wash up and sleep. Unexpectedly, Sister Yindi disappeared into the air out of thin air. Not only did the crowd refuse to disperse, there were people driving cars from all directions to gather at the Fruit Core Hotel. In addition, many TV stations were also broadcasting downstairs. The scene was extremely chaotic.

"Spectacular, isn't it? At least half a day ago, none of us expected that such a thing would happen, and I am used to seeing Vanity Fair. If Dixie's case cannot be explained, all kinds of sensational headlines will appear in the headlines tomorrow, such as 'A well-known female TV broadcaster disappeared for no reason, in full view of the public', or 'The inside story of the West City Fruit Core Hotel involves a case that happened decades ago. Ghosts are asking for their lives."Lao Dai's face suddenly became very sad in the flickering lights downstairs. He sighed and said,"In the end, this hotel will definitely be a prosperous business, and poor Dixie will never be able to come back."

"What can you do? I also glanced down and sighed:"I saw you smiling before, so there must be a plan.""

"Laughter does not mean there is a solution, it is a way to appease people and not cause panic. In fact, there is nothing I can do. Of course there is a plan, but that's you. You have to shoulder the big mistake made by the fat man and get him back!"He deliberately avoided my eyes and said

"Are you crazy? How could I possibly do this?"I couldn't help being shocked and shouted:"Of course I also hope that I can do that."

"Although your little girlfriend is angry, her eyes are very vicious. In fact, I can tell that you are very interested in Dixie. Of course, you don't have to admit it, but an hour ago, you didn't even know who she was. To put it bluntly, she was a stranger. But just an hour later, your behavior showed that you were extremely concerned about her safety, which can't help but make people feel strange."

When Lao Dai said this, I felt dazed myself. Yes, this is too unreasonable. I don't know her at all, and I didn't even look at the badge she was wearing. This kind of affection is really hard to explain.. One thing I admit, no matter whether Dixie is a blue-collar worker, a white-collar worker or a gold-collar worker, I don’t hate her like a few other grassroots people do, I even like her a little. But that’s neither admiration nor covet, but something that even I don’t like. I understand. Anyway, I do have the urge to take her home.

"Have you ever had the experience of losing someone and being unable to do anything about it?"The detective scratched his scalp and asked curiously.

If he had to contact someone, it would be the former Miss Lycugu, or Freesia who was trapped in purgatory. Both of them are her, and she is currently traveling around Georgia. Holisman in hiding. What is he doing now? Looking at the crescent moon setting in the west, I suddenly felt an indescribable melancholy in my heart. Thinking back to all the tragedies in Lycu's ancient mansion, I couldn't help but burst into tears.

"At present, among these people, you are the only one who can give it a try. Although I can't figure out your origin, Alex, you may be a brave bird of prey."He stood up, patted my shoulder, and said,"Let's wait until Paco comes back first. In addition, I also need to think about it."

"A flying bird of prey? What is this?"I saw that he was going to go to the film crew.I grabbed the detective's sleeve and shouted:"You must not understand me as a person in the dark world who specializes in heresy. I am not from the same group as them. We are just living side by side in order to survive. In theory, I We are even stranger to them. If you think I can do it, at least explain it to me."

"Xiaozhi refers to a certain kind of master who can move souls and control dreams. There have only been three people in history, and they are all women, which is extremely rare. Because they are either earls, royal relatives, or ladies, they have no desire, their talents are wasted, and they have no chance to bloom throughout their lives. This type of person can use dreams to freely travel through space to accomplish something secretly, such as amending wills and knowing stock prices in advance, but forgetting all about them when they wake up. So no matter how hard it goes, you can always hit the jackpot and become extremely rich. That's probably it."

"Is there such a thing? But I’m a poor guy and a loser." After hearing this, I beamed with joy and caught up with him and asked,"So you think I might become rich in the future? Maybe I can go back to France to elect president? Or is it defrauding technology companies and leaving them empty-handed?"

"Precisely because I don’t know where this kind of people can go if they show their true strength, I can’t say. How can I describe something I haven’t seen? For now, let me understand what kind of person you are."Lao Dai held my shoulders, turned to the secluded bathroom door, and whispered:"Paco will come back with something in a while, you put it in your hat, and then follow my instructions!"

"Before the two vixens left, they threw it on the ground. I was afraid that people would trample it dirty."The braces girl handed over a pocket-sized notebook with a pen. It was a note that the female soldier bought at the corner shop after dinner. She said that she would record all the details she encountered when breaking 0514 in the middle of the night so as not to forget. However, the notebook No words were written, only the cartoon giraffe she drew was on the first page.

Eight minutes later, the Mexican came to the big house carrying a rusty copper box. The detective explained to the camera crew that I would be used to capture Sister Di. After getting it back, everyone present must strictly follow his instructions and not make mistakes like Fan Pang did just now! Otherwise, this anchor will replicate the bizarre unsolved case of 72 years and disappear into history forever along with me.
