Mystery Leaks

Chapter 106 One More

Only then did everyone have a glimmer of hope, and even Tu Xiong and Tu Bao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's rest and recover your strength, if something happens, prepare to work hard!" Tu Bao said a rare sentence, and sat down against the wall.

Everyone gathered together as much as possible, and only turned on one flashlight to save light. No matter what conflicts there were before, now is the time to help each other.

Time passed little by little while waiting, I kept looking at the time, the closer it got to the dark, the deeper my heart sank.

Three in the afternoon!

Four o'clock!

……

Six o'clock!

……

eight pm!

……

ten o'clock!

Seeing that midnight was approaching, the gate remained unchanged.

The hope that the crowd had finally built up faded again. Cao Nan was not reconciled, and fumbled around the gate again carefully with a flashlight, hoping to find some clues.But in the end, he got nothing, so he kicked the door fiercely in anger, and sat down again dejectedly.

I wanted to comfort him a few words, but found that his body froze suddenly, covered his mouth hastily, and his face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.

I was taken aback by his sudden movement, and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

"No...it's nothing." Cao Nan hurriedly shook her head, gave me a dangerous look, and signaled me not to speak.

I was baffled, and hurriedly looked around, but found nothing worthy of vigilance.Cao Nan swallowed hard, and secretly reached out and wrote on my thigh: There is one more person!

My heart skipped a beat, and I checked the number of people, only to feel a chill rushing from the bottom of my ass to my forehead, and my whole body felt like I was falling into an ice cave. There was one more, fifteen more than when I counted them before.

Before being chased by a group of snakes, it was me, Cao Nan, and Liu Erlong who were in the rear, and there was no No. 15 at all.

What does this mean?
There is a person who is not a person!
Dirt got in!
Seeing that Cao Nan and I looked different, Liu Erlong was about to speak, but I stopped him with my eyes. Then I imitated Cao Nan and wrote the same words on his leg. Liu Erlong checked the head and hurriedly covered it in fright. Mouth.

At this time, Tu Bao and Tu Xiong, who were opposite us, seemed to have reacted, and their faces changed drastically.

The weird thing is that five people knew about it but no one pointed it out.It's not that I can't, but that I don't dare. God knows what will happen to the person I pointed out.

The time passed in the strange mutual eye contact, and Cao Nan and I unconsciously looked at the remaining nine people, trying to distinguish which one appeared last.

But in the end I found nothing, and I couldn’t remember who was who. Cao Nan glanced at me and shook his head slowly, also not knowing which one it was.

"Damn it!" I felt chills in my heart, and it was even more uncomfortable to wait for the rescue, but in the end, a dirty thing got mixed into the crowd.

What is even more incomprehensible is, what is it doing here?
"Hey, why is there one more person?" At this moment, someone other than the five of us finally noticed the anomaly, and even said it out.

With this said, the crowd counted each other's numbers, and they immediately became overwhelmed.

"Fuck, don't scare me!"

"A ghost has come in!"

"Who?"

"Who came in last, and who came out?"

"Oh my god, it's killing me!"

"..."

With a huff, the crowd dispersed, and they were wary of the people around them, terrified; no one dared to touch others.Many people who had knives around their waists even took out their knives and focused their attention on guard, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.

"Everyone be quiet, don't panic!"

I hastily yelled, I must stand up at this time, otherwise if someone can't bear to attack others, there will be camp screams, everyone will kill and attack each other, and the scene will be completely chaotic.

The loud shouting worked, and everyone leaned against the wall, watching the surrounding people vigilantly.

"Is there anyone who can tell who joined in last, after we nodded." I tried to ask, if more than two people can testify at the same time, it is probably close to ten.

Everyone rushed forward, even if they couldn't handle that ghost, they could drive it away with a rush of yang energy.

But everyone looked at each other and shook their heads. One person pointed at the other and said, but the pointed person immediately refuted, and there was no second person to help, so the scene was deadlocked for a while.

I frowned slightly, as if it was useless, I had to be sure!
The difficulty lies here. Although everyone knows each other, when they run away, they are like a lost dog, their brains are so frightened, who has the time to pay attention to their companions?

Even if you can identify a few of them, it's not very useful, because there is only one ghost, and it sneaked in under the guise of an acquaintance.

"Well, listen to me." Cao Nan stood up at this time, pointed at me, Liu Erlong, and Tu Bao Tu Xiong and said, "The five of us are definitely not the last ones to join, you can all see it, right? "

The remaining ten people nodded and agreed, because the five of us almost got into a fight, which couldn't be more conspicuous.

"Okay, then there are only ten people left. Let's nod, and each person will only nod one. You are most sure that he didn't join later, and exclude them one by one." Cao Nan said.

Everyone nodded, so the five of us ordered first, and finally ordered the same two most recognizable people.There were eight remaining, and the people who clicked continued to click until there was one gangster left, who was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, without any characteristics, standing there alone.

"Damn it, it's not me!" the gangster yelled in horror.

"It doesn't seem to be him!" Immediately someone chimed in, and there were more than one of them.

Cao Nan and I looked at each other, it's over! !

This method will not work!
When people are under stress, their memory and discrimination ability are not reliable at all, and their brains are frightened; as long as one of them makes a mistake, all of them will be wrong.In the end, there must be people who are not recognizable.

"Bleeding, those with blood are people, and those without blood are ghosts!" Tu Bao stood up and suggested. .

Cao Nan and I nodded, this method is worth a try.So in order to prove themselves, the crowd cut their skins one by one for blood tests, but to our despair, all of them had blood after they were cut.

Now no one knew what to do, they couldn't tell the difference at all, the crowd looked at each other, and the atmosphere froze.

"Could it be that I made a mistake before?" Someone asked in a low voice.

Cao Nan shook his head: "It shouldn't be. I ordered twice, and they were all fourteen."

"I also ordered fourteen." Tu Bao said, and looked at me after speaking.

"Fourteen!" I said.

"Maybe it's too dark, you can't see clearly when the two are crowded together?" Another person said.

No one answered the call. It might be possible, but not too big. After all, I counted four times back and forth, and it was fourteen, and it was from two different directions.

"Everyone be quiet, maybe the number is really wrong." Liu Erlong said.

As soon as these words came out, everyone, whether they believed it or not, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Put away all the knives, this thing can only kill people, it's useless against ghosts." Seeing this, I took advantage of the situation and said, I can't find out who is changed by dirty things right now, so let's relax first.The result of the nervousness is that the dirty things haven't harmed anyone, and they started killing each other first.

At the same time, I was also secretly startled. Huang Mao told me that to test whether a person is a ghost, you can stab a knife. If there is blood, it is a person, and if there is no blood, it is a ghost.

But this is not [-]% absolute. Some powerful ghosts can't do it. Its illusion is so powerful that it can still bleed even after being stabbed. It is so realistic that people can't tell the difference.

In other words, this mixed thing is so powerful that it cannot be detected by conventional methods.

Although the crowd put away their knives, they were still wary of everyone around them, and no one dared to relax.

Me, Cao Nan, and Liu Erlong also moved a little to the side, away from the ten people, and Tu Xiong Tu Bao was more direct, driving away the two suspects next to him.

The atmosphere remained stalemate like this, the time passed by, and midnight soon passed, everyone stared at me and I stared at him, not to mention closing their eyes to rest, even blinking very vigilantly.

"Continuing like this is not an option, we will be consumed alive!" I said, people in a tense state consume a lot of physical and mental energy, and even have hallucinations. At that time, there is no need for ghosts to act, and people will be exhausted alive.

"What do you want to do?" Tu Bao asked, obviously he couldn't stand it anymore.

I thought about it for a while and said: "In this way, fifteen people can be divided into three groups freely, with five people in each group, taking turns to rest each other, and keeping a group of people standing guard. The guards must keep an eye on everyone, and wake everyone up if something goes wrong. How about it?"
