Chapter 204 Stairs
"Diplodocus," the fat man stared at the sports watch in Chenran's hand, his face trembling a few times, "Did something grab it here, so that's why you lost the watch here?"
"Could it be that the biker girl's belongings were taken away?" The fat man looked around warily and said with a trembling voice: "Last time the biker girl was captured at the lighthouse, now Diplodocus is here."
"There seem to be a lot of strange things around here," Chenran squinted and threw away the watch that was probably a relic of Diplodocus, then walked to one side and slowly squatted down.
Chenran's location was already half-hidden in the darkness, and Fatty didn't seem to think much of it. Since entering the nightmare, his fear of the dark had reached its peak.
But he is not the one in the team who can make decisions, the doctor is.
Even if the doctor said that Fatty should go back to Blackstone Town by himself now, he would, um, think about it carefully.
"Let's go," Jiang Cheng looked around and said to the fat man, "Go back first."
The fat man looked at Jiang Cheng, and then at Chenran, who was squatting in the darkness with only half of his back exposed, seemingly asking what to do with this guy.
"Brother Chenran, please take your time and work," Jiang Cheng pulled his neck and said in a polite tone: "We will go back first."
After hearing this, Chenran stood up very quickly, and then strode over.
For this guy who said no, but was very honest physically, the fat man was extremely vigilant.
His face seems to be comparable to that of a doctor, and his artificial look is also similar.
"What did Brother Hao say?" Chenran was about to touch Jiang Cheng's face, and even the latter could feel his breath, "I'm not worried about you two going back alone, let's go together."
Jiang Cheng looked into his eyes and suddenly pulled the fat man behind him. The doctor's move was so sudden that the fat man didn't notice and was almost pulled down by him.
"Sure," Jiang Cheng replied in his unique accent, "But you can't get too close to this fat man." He paused, cocked his neck and continued beeping: "This fat man is mine."
Chenran looked at Jiang Cheng and Fatty for a few times, then grinned and said, "I understand."
The three of them each held a torch, and Chenran was asked to walk at the front. The reason given by Jiang Cheng was that he felt that the former looked particularly like the sports committee member who was hit by a car when he was in elementary school.
He once followed the sports committee during exercise and felt particularly safe.
The fat man still walked at the end. The further he walked, the more unsure he became, because he remembered a time when he had insomnia and was caught by a doctor who came out to use the toilet at night, so the doctor enthusiastically told him a few short stories to help him sleep.
No matter how ghosts in the cemetery break into the wall, the scariest thing about the early morning morgue debate is the last one - the endless stairs at midnight.
It is about a female white-collar worker who worked overtime alone in the company until early in the morning. As a result, she encountered a power outage in the company and took the stairs downstairs alone. No matter how she walked, she found that she was stuck on the 18th floor.
Later, she even jumped down several steps.
But it turned out that there was a ghost lying on the woman's back, which was cut off by the elevator and lost its lower body.
The ghost lay on the woman's back and covered her eyes with his hands.
In fact, the woman has been moving, but not in the stairwell, but in the dark corridor, bouncing towards an abandoned elevator shaft.
That elevator is where ghosts die.
After listening to the doctor's story, the fat man was so scared that he couldn't sleep all night. He always felt like something was pressing on him behind him. However, Jiang Cheng went to sleep contentedly and snored happily.
The direct consequence of this incident is that the fat man neither dares to take the elevator nor walk alone on the stairwell.
Especially at night.
Now now! The stories the doctor told him couldn't stop popping out of his head, and he always felt like something was following him behind him.
After taking a few steps, I turned around and took a look.
"Doctor," the fat man said with a guilty conscience, "walk slower, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up."
Jiang Cheng really walked a little slower, then lowered his voice and whispered to the fat man: "Fat man, I'm afraid that if I walk too slowly, something behind you will catch up with me."
The fat man shut himself up immediately.
Fortunately, they didn't encounter anything strange until they reached the second stone door. Chenran squinted his eyes and was the first to walk into the lighthouse.
The flame inside was very strong, and the overflowing warmth warmed Fatty's heart.
Everything was normal in the lighthouse, Su Ran fell asleep in the corner, and Su Xiaoxiao was guarding behind the stone door alone. I don't know whether it was Su Xiaoxiao or the old woman herself, but the old woman climbed out of the basket.
Now it is huddled in the gap between the two baskets.
Su Xiaoxiao was very alert. It could be seen from the fact that she didn't have any special expression after everyone came in. It was obvious that she had heard the footsteps of several people and even saw them from the stone door.
But it wasn't until the fat man was pushed in by Jiang Cheng and everyone sat down in a circle that Su Xiaoxiao's expression began to change. She took a look at the position of Shimen, and then her expression darkened.
No need to ask, the Diplodocus that has not come back must be in bad luck.
"what happened?"
Jiang Cheng was warming himself by the fire. When the fat man saw that Jiang Cheng didn't answer, he didn't say anything either. Chenran slowly told Su Xiaoxiao what happened during this period.
Especially what he saw in Blackstone Town and the scene where Diplodocus disappeared.
"Where's her watch?" Su Xiaoxiao suddenly asked.
Chenran grinned, "Lost it."
"Lost?" Su Xiaoxiao opened her eyes slightly.
"Miss Su, please believe me," Chen Ran then glanced at Jiang Cheng with interest, "Of course, there is also Mr. Hao's judgment. Miss Liang is most likely dead, so I think we don't need to keep this watch anymore. We don't have a chance to return it to Miss Liang." He spread his hands and said.
It's normal for someone to die in a nightmare, so after Su Xiaoxiao learned that she couldn't get the details of Liang Long's disappearance or death, she naturally turned her attention to what they learned in Black Stone Town.
At least they learned about the curse and the origin of this huge building.
Su Xiaoxiao did not hide her discovery in the forest. Whether it was from Jiang Cheng and Fatty or Chen Ran, her only goal was to complete the mission as soon as possible.
Although his brother Su Ran's condition has stabilized since returning to this stone room, no one knows how long he can survive.
Fatty watched the lively exchange between the three people and couldn't help but interrupt and said, "So what the people in Black Stone Town said is true. We just need to protect the flame in the lighthouse and we can get through this mission safely."
Su Xiaoxiao, who was talking, suddenly stopped.
Then she looked at the fat man beside her with a strange look.
The fat man became nervous when she looked at him.
"How old is the blond man?" Jiang Cheng asked calmly.
"About 35," said the fat man.
"But according to his story line," Jiang Cheng put away his hands that were warming the fire, looked up at the fat man and said, "He was the mayor decades ago."
