Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 387 Hide and Seek (End)
Xia Shou and Su Yue left the room as quickly as possible and were about to escape separately, but the light humming sound came along.

Then came the sound of quick running footsteps and wild laughter!
Xia Shou wanted to run, but in the blink of an eye, the footsteps were already very close behind him and Su Yue.

This speed is too fast!
Su Yue wanted to turn back, but Xia Shou had already heard the sharp sound of steel claws scratching the wall. He bent down and pressed Su Yue's head. A gust of wind passed over their heads, and the sharp steel claws were deeply embedded in the wall on the other side.

"Found it!!" The man with the blood-stained mask opened five slender finger knives, raised them high, and chopped down like lightning.

The cold light from the fingertips flickered in Xia Shou's pupils. At this distance, they had no possibility of escaping. In the nightmare, all his extraordinary abilities were sealed, and he was now just an ordinary person.

There’s no other way. Let’s try again.

Time is tight, but there are still many steps that can be optimized. If I do it again, I can definitely buy enough time to escape.

Xia Shou gave up struggling and prepared to go back.

However, the moment the five finger blades chopped down on him, they suddenly shattered into countless pieces, and the precision parts on the blood-masked prosthetic hand also suddenly disintegrated and scattered.

The prosthetic hand he had on his right hand... was broken.

Xia Shou looked at this scene and his mind went blank.

The butcher's weapon was broken, so how was he going to kill them next? Beat them with his other arm?
After a brief moment of confusion, Xia Shou immediately realized that perhaps Su Weiyu in reality had done something that affected his dream!

"Haha... found." The man in the blood mask sneered sinisterly.

He took no further action, but stood there motionless, looking at them quietly, wet blackness spreading from his heart.

Xia Shou noticed that the scene around them began to become blurry, and the feeling of the ground under his feet also became unreal.

I guess the dream is about to end.

……

Su Weiyu saw an adult man sitting in the closet, wearing a blood-stained mask. The backs of his exposed hands were covered with furry green velvet, and the flesh that was not covered by the green hair had fallen off, revealing the bones.

He raised his head and looked at Su Yue with hazy eyes, showing a puzzled expression, as if he was surprised why Su Yue walked to him while she was asleep.

Su Yue stretched out her hand, and the kitchen knife stabbed into the other person's heart with a "whoosh".

"Haha... found." The man in the blood mask laughed.

He blinked, and suddenly the things that happened long ago appeared in front of his eyes. It was as if those things were not memories in his mind, but like a movie, they were replayed in front of him again.

Blood Mask saw the REC logo in the memory scene.

He didn't remember Rob saying that the memories in the actors' minds would also be treated as plots and pulled out for display.

But it doesn't matter now. Anyway, the understanding he has always wanted will definitely be fulfilled. This group of people who are trying to survive will never understand that in this movie, they, the butchers, are the protagonists.

Well, let me show you all my life.

Su Yue slowly opened her eyes and saw herself holding a knife, stabbing a strange man in the heart.

Although the appearance of this man was very different from the boy in the closet at that time, Su Yue still recognized him at a glance. This man was the boy's appearance when he grew up.

Su Yue pulled out the knife, but the other party was already dead.

After a few minutes, footsteps were heard at the door and Li Ming came in.

When he saw the body in the closet, he was stunned with surprise.

"Where is Mr. Xia?" Su Yue asked.

"Oh, brother... he said he needed to go for a while and would be back soon, so let me go first." Li Ming came back to his senses and said.

Su Yue looked Li Ming up and down. There were no obvious wounds on his body, which showed that he was lucky in his dream and was not caught by the blood mask.

After a while, Xia Shou also arrived at Room 1258.

When Xia Shou saw the body with the blood mask, the REC sign also disappeared.

In the plot of the movie, their story with the butcher finally came to an end. Xia Shou rolled up his sleeves, and the blue spots on his arms had turned into scabs, which fell off with a flick. The skin underneath was all new, and the curse corresponding to the butcher also disappeared.

"Li Ming, go to the bathroom, close the door and wait for a while. Don't come out until I tell you to." Xia Shou ordered.

Li Ming said "Oh" obediently, walked into the bathroom and closed the door.

Then Xia Shou also asked Su Yue to close her eyes.

It's not that I don't trust Su Yue, but there is an essential difference between Su Yue and Su Weiyu. Due to Su Weiyu's own characteristics, her intelligence confidentiality level is naturally the highest, but Su Yue may passively leak information for some strange reasons.

To be on the safe side, it is better not to let Su Yue know about the existence of the black shadow.

Xia Shou walked to the corpse, and the black shadow under his feet began to expand, covering the ground under the blood-masked man.

Xia Shou didn't have any hope of devouring the corpse, but there was no filming now and the black shadow could be used again, so he might as well give it a try.

[Degree of Devouring: 24%…]

The devouring progress bar appeared, which was beyond Xia Shou's expectations. He always thought that the horse in the forest would definitely prohibit the black shadow's devouring ability.

This time, the black shadow's swallowing speed was very fast, and it seemed that the blood mask was quite easy to digest.

In less than a minute, the blood mask completely sank into Xia Shou's shadow, and a detailed introduction to the new skill appeared in front of Xia Shou:

【Dreams come true】

[Introduction: Wishes that cannot be realized in reality can only be realized in dreams.

Dreamland, the last hometown, the residence of the soul, the most real sustenance after all the falsehoods. 】

[Skill type: Consumable skill (1 time)]

[Abnormal Level: Level 2]

[Effect: You can enter other people's dreams and fabricate the dreams to a certain extent, but the degree of transformation of the dreams depends on the will of the dream owner.

You cannot change the habitual cognition of the dream owner, such as turning a healthy person into a disabled person, changing the other person's self-positioning, suppressing the other person's abilities, etc.

The impact on the dreamer in the dream will be replicated in reality, and the physical and mental impact on the dreamer and you in the dream will be brought back to reality. 】

[Price: After using this skill, you will become extremely sleepy and need to sleep for 48 hours to recover.]

[Note 1: This skill can only be used after the current area collapses. ]

A consumable skill that can only be used once, which means that Blood Mask is only a level 2 transcendent in reality, and his superpowers are relatively weak. He has no ability to seal other people's superpowers in dreams.

The reason why he has such strength now is probably because the director enhanced his actual ability in the movie.

"Okay, you can open your eyes now." Xia Shou said, then walked to the bathroom and knocked on the door, "You can come out too."

Li Ming first went to the bathroom and immediately took out a newspaper from his pocket and handed it to Xia Shou.

"I almost forgot! When I was running away in my dream, I found this newspaper. I took it when I came here just now. I don't know if it will be useful!"

There was a news story in the newspaper about a disabled child infected with an unknown fungus and other disabled children being kept in captivity like animals by a wealthy family.

It focuses on describing that the wealthy man likes to play a game called hide-and-seek with those disabled children. The rule is that the children can hide anywhere in the huge manor and cannot be found within a certain period of time.

If they are found, they will have a tooth pulled out, and will not receive treatment after the extraction. The food they eat is also unclean, so wound infection is common, and the rich will spend a lot of money on treatment after their infection symptoms become serious.

In the end, the only one who was rescued was the child in the news. When he was rescued, all his teeth had been pulled out and he had serious mental problems. He often thought of himself as the young master of a wealthy family. After being locked up in a mental hospital, he had long fantasized about being a "ghost" in hide-and-seek.

Judging from the date, this person disappeared twenty years ago during the restructuring of the mental hospital.

Xia Shou read the news carefully and then passed the newspaper to Su Weiyu.

"We are on the set now, so we can't be sure whether it is true or not, but we can investigate it after we get out." Xia Shou said.
