Zombies take me as air

Chapter 256 Marks on the Window

"Dangerous?" Seeing the girl, Kong Qi only felt like a forest fairy in an oil painting, feeling that she had nothing to do with stick noodles and bean paste.

"Well, I can't tell. Anyway, she doesn't have vegetables here. Let's go to another house to see."

Lu Xiangbei's judgment on the woman was completely based on intuition, and he rarely did such a thing.

Use intuition to judge a person or an event.

However, shrouded in an inexplicable and unclear feeling, he perceived something called unfriendliness, so he decided to follow his heart and intuition.

Kong Qi must have believed him. After a long period of training, Lu Xiangbei has a better ability to perceive danger than her.

A person may have a smile on his face, but he actually harbors murderous intentions.

They left the 'Valley of Thousand Flowers' grain shop and wandered around the market for a while.

The small stall selling seeds is on the side of the street, there is no shop, it is a wild stall.

Kong Qi exchanged grain for a few packets of seeds she needed. Seeing that she bought a lot, the owner of the seed stall kindly reminded her that she must go back to her residence before dark.

"What? There are monsters eating people at night?"

"Yes, young people, don't believe in evil, you only have one life, don't take it seriously." The old woman who sold the seeds reminded seriously.

"Okay, we got it, thank you grandma."

The hotel owner said the same thing, and the old woman who sold the seeds said the same thing. They couldn't be together, could they?
Kong Qi felt that this was probably true, so she and Lu Xiangbei returned to the hotel before dark.

In the evening, there was no one on the street, probably to save electricity, the street lights in the city were not on.

The innkeeper told them to lock the windows and doors at night.

The curtains should also be drawn tightly, so that things outside cannot see into the house.

The boss's order added a lot of tension. When Kong Qi returned to the room, she deliberately didn't draw the curtains. She just locked the windows and hid in the space.

She wanted to see who would come to the window in the middle of the night.

Lu Xiangbei stayed outside the space, but Kong Qi could walk through the wall to his room at any time.

Lu Xiangbei was watching the video taken by the camera to see if anyone entered their room to search for things after they left.

He pressed the fast-forward button and saw that the innkeeper quietly left Lu Xiangbei's room 10 minutes after they left.

She opened his backpack and took out the flour bag inside. After searching, she found that there was only one bag of grain, so she put the bag back.

Then she went to the window and drew a circle on the window glass. The pen she used was like a brush, but there was no ink on it, and nothing could be seen after the drawing.

It seems that Lu Xiangbei's cautiousness is right, this may be a black shop, Kong Qi watched it with him, "through the wall" and went back to her room.

There is no video camera in her room, and I don't know if the boss has drawn any patterns on her windows.

The hotel room was not safe, and she stayed in the space. After 12 o'clock at night, a fog suddenly appeared outside the window, and the fog was so thick that it covered the scenery outside the window.

Fog fell on the windows, and a circular pattern appeared on the glass.

I see……

Kong Qi saw the mist coming in through the gap of the window, and she suddenly remembered the "evil" that the owner of the seed stall said.

This thing is really 'evil', she immediately went to Lu Xiangbei's room and moved him into the space.

I don't know what the mist is, it can get in through cracks, and it can also be inhaled into the human body by the same token.

Kong Qi didn't dare to let Lu Xiangbei stay outside to take risks, so the mist penetrated into the room and 'searched' around the room, like living things, even under the bed and in the closet.

It drills in and exits. It is not accurate to say that this thing is a 'fog', it is a thing with ideas.

It even slipped through the door and 'looked' into the corridor.

But no one was found after wandering around, so it had to retreat out of the window.

The fog disappeared, Kong Qi and Lu Xiangbei didn't dare to go out, and slept in the space all night.

The next morning, they had breakfast with Tian Niu in Xinjiayuan, and after eating, they left the space and wanted to go to the morning market for a stroll.

The two walked out of the room and saw the innkeeper lying on the ground, her hands had turned into bones.

Looking closer, I found that her head had also turned into a skeleton, no, her whole body had turned into a skeleton!
The clothes were still on, the scarf was well wrapped around the skull, and there was not a single drop of blood on the ground.

There were only the two of them in the hotel. Lu Xiangbei went out and asked someone in the nearby shop what to do if someone died, and whether there was a police station in Huadu.

Next to the hotel is the breakfast shop, which is the time when there are the most customers.

The owner of the breakfast shop and the customers heard that the owner of the inn was dead, and they all ran over to look. When they saw the bones on the ground, they immediately dispersed and disappeared.

The owner of the breakfast shop shouted 'monsters are eating people' while running, and his shout attracted several people in black clothes.

They wore uniform black suit jackets with 'Ann' pins at the collars.

Everyone ran away from the breakfast shop, and the man in black naturally walked towards the breakfast shop.

Lu Xiangbei called them to stop, saying that the hotel owner was dead.

The man in black walked into the hotel, and when he saw the boss lying behind the counter, his expression became quite ugly.

"What's the situation? Who are you?" The man in black focused his gaze on Lu Xiangbei and Kong Qi.

"We entered the city yesterday. We passed by Huadu for a rest. We came back to rest before sunset yesterday. We found the boss's body this morning. She was like this when we found her." Kong Qi replied.

"Did you hear any sounds last night? Or saw something... such as a figure." The man in black asked.

"No, we were too tired from the journey. We went to bed at eight o'clock, and slept until seven o'clock this morning. We wanted to go out for breakfast, but when we came out, we saw the boss lying on the ground in such a state." Kong Qi didn't mention About the fog, pretend not to know anything.

The men in black looked at each other, as if they had a tacit understanding of something, and asked them to find another hotel to stay. This hotel will be closed.

Kong Qi and Lu Xiangbei frowned at the same time, pretending to complain, saying that this place is not safe, it is better to leave as soon as possible.

The man in black didn't say anything else, Lu Xiangbei went back to the room to get their backpacks, Kong Qi took the opportunity to ask the man in black, she heard yesterday that there are monsters eating people in the city, is it true?Was the boss eaten by a monster?
The man in black impatiently warned her not to inquire, to stay if she wanted to, and to leave immediately if she was afraid.

The two of them left the hotel and walked towards the morning market.

"Don't even ask, it seems that they know who killed the boss." After the two of them walked away, Lu Xiangbei said firmly.

"The legend may be true, but why did the innkeeper die?" Kong Qi was confused by this question. The room that was marked was the two of them, but the one who died was the innkeeper.

Kong Qi looked up at Lu Xiangbei and said, "Aren't she and that strange fog in the same group?"

"Maybe it's internal strife. We have bought the seeds, so we don't need to stay, let's get out of the city as soon as possible."

"Also—oh? Look, who is that?"

"Why is she here?"

Both Kong Qi and Lu Xiangbei looked surprised. The person Kong Qi pointed to was familiar to them, and it was Nan Xing who had been missing for a long time.
