Hospital No. 444.

Chapter 272 The Tenth "Person"

His feet made a crisp sound from time to time when he stepped on the icy ground.

Everyone is not too fast or too slow, and try to keep the pace as consistent as possible, neither too fast nor too slow.

Everyone tilted their bamboo poles towards the side of the fog, and porcelain dolls were the only ones that could bring them a sense of security.

10 minutes passed.

They followed the fog and gradually walked towards a basically abandoned farmhouse.

David looked at a country road in front of him, and suddenly remembered the scene of playing with his cousin there when he was a child.Everything at that time, now... is still vivid.

Is this fog...is it possible to disappear someday in the future?
In the past ten years, many villagers have been praying that maybe one morning when they wake up, the fog will completely disappear without a trace.But obviously, this is completely wishful thinking.

"Look at..."

At this time, Lin Tai pointed to a house ahead.

That house, half covered in fog, half covered outside.

This situation looks very strange.

"Can only bypass?" David asked.

"No." Lin Tai said, "If that's the case, it will exceed two meters."

"What should I do?"

"Into the house. From the window."

Does it have to be like this?

At this time, at Dai's house.

David's parents were sitting around the table, while Dai Lan hid in the house, secretly checking on his parents.

"Don't worry too much." Dad saw Mom's worry and said, "Now, I can only trust him."

"I just think of Lei San at that time..."

"That rarely happens."

"Yes...it should be because I think too much."

When she said this, her hands were shaking violently.

The couple will never forget the creepy words that Lei San said when he found them.

"It's so evil. When I counted, there were ten people in total! Ten people! Inexplicably, there were ten more people! But as the captain, I checked the other nine people thoroughly. I couldn't see Whoever comes out is the tenth person!"

"How is it possible... Tell me, who are the nine people! I also went to the lottery during the day, and I remember clearly which people were drawn."

"I, I also think I'm going crazy..." Lei San cried and said, "The nine people are Niu Jun, Luo Yujun, Zhang Heng, Lin Xie, and Yun..."

He said eight names in one breath. David's parents remembered these eight people clearly, and they were indeed the ones who were drawn by lottery today, that's right!
Who is that last one?
"The other one is...Ge, Ge Niancheng!"

Hearing this name, David's parents were stunned.

"Lei San, you..."

"I remember that Ge Niancheng was indeed drawn in today's lottery!"

"That's right, he's the village chief's son! When he gets married, I'll be his witness!"

"Yeah! These nine people, including me, are ten people! A total of ten people! You say, how is this possible? Since the village was closed by the fog until now, we have drawn lots to select eight people every day, plus one Yue fixed captain! There can never be ten people! Never!"

Such a strange situation made everyone feel extremely horrified.

"Is everyone confused collectively, can't tell nine people or ten people?"

"How is it possible! For example, Luo Yujun, he is the math teacher in our village!"

For a moment, the three fell into silence.

"The stele says that the tenth extra person must be found within one month. Otherwise, a terrible disaster will happen!"

Before Lei San, there were only downsizing in patrols, and there was never a situation where too many people came!
However, David's mother remembered that it happened in the past. As the captain, she only remembered the loss of staff, and she even reminded repeatedly that other people remembered who was lost.

This white mist seems to have the effect of distorting human minds.

"Could it be so?"

David's father put forward a hypothesis: "That fog, let us all become... IQ lowered, and we can't even tell nine from ten...?"

"But now, don't we have a clear distinction?"

According to the statement on the stele, it seems that there is a possibility of "one more person".

But these people, except for He Yun, are all villagers in the village!Many of them are also old acquaintances of David's father, such as Luo Yujun and Zhang Heng, who used to be mahjong friends.

As for He Yun, although he was the only outsider, everyone in the village remembered his situation clearly. It was the night before the arrival of the heavy fog, when the Shen family held an engagement banquet, he suddenly arrived.

"Tell me, what happened? Something unusual must have happened?" David's father asked Ge San: "In the past few years, nothing like this has ever happened."

"let me see……"

After thinking about it, Ge San said, "Actually, it went very smoothly this time. Ge Niancheng is very brave. Although he is young, he is really capable of doing things. At that time, more than half of his porcelain dolls were removed. , I was a little worried for him."

"More than half? Then in the end..."

"In the end, his porcelain doll only had one leg left. It was safe and sound."

"Only one leg? Is it that dangerous?"

"Yes... I think so too. He is the son of the village chief. If something happens to me, I... I can't explain it to the village chief. I was quite happy that there was no danger. I reported the tenth Personally, my heart is cold. I went to the village chief to report this matter, and the village chief told me to keep quiet, and he said he would investigate. But, but I am afraid! I am the captain, and I am out If this kind of thing really brings disaster to the village... I, I... how should I be responsible!"

……

Recalling this, David's father's hands trembled subconsciously.

"Who is the tenth person? I haven't been found out yet. Therefore, the village chief can only choose to let Lei San be responsible."

"Responsible with life..."

"If you don't do that, the village will keep dying."

"Yes... I still remember the horror of those people in the village when they died..."

At this time, Dai Lan heard these words through the crack of the door, and his face became extremely pale.

"Guilan, I understand now. There must have been nine people on patrol at that time. But when the patrol ended, there were ten more people, a tenth bamboo pole, and a tenth porcelain doll. I don't know. Why, we feel that that person is from the village from the beginning!"

"You really... want to?"

"That person is still in the village!"

"Is...impossible? At least it can't be Niancheng, right? Jianguo, we watched this child grow up!"

"Anyone is possible. Even Niancheng is no exception. I will find that person, definitely!"

"Speaking of... why does everything have something to do with He Yun?" David's mother, Zhang Guilan, didn't like this man either: "Back then, Lisheng and Wen Xin were about to get engaged, so he had to come to snatch the marriage. Five years ago, he Went on patrol with Lisheng, Lisheng died, but he survived. Everyone in the village suspected that he killed Lisheng, but only Wen Xin firmly believed in him. But... this also happened to Lei San Before."

That incident made a big fuss back then, because of the death of his friend Lisheng, Ge Niancheng almost beat He Yun to death, Su Wenxin insisted that He Yun would not use Bai Wu to kill Shen Lisheng to avenge his personal revenge.Because there is no evidence, the village head could not let the doctor from the city die in the village, and finally exiled him to the edge of the village near Baiwu. Su Wenxin would rather sever ties with his parents than go with him.To this day, the village has been scolding these two men endlessly.

"As I said, anyone is suspicious. Whether it's He Yun, Nian Cheng, anyone... no exceptions!"

David's father... Dai Jianguo said firmly.

The tenth person is hiding in the village.That person... came from that thick fog, and is the same as those unknown objects!
