After the Little Crybaby Enters the Nightmare Cycle - Chapter 89

The driver slowly stopped the car on the side of the road and looked at Chi Nan from the rearview mirror: “Where shall I drive next? You have the choice.”

Chi Nan: “Thank you, please take the path on the left.”

The driver turned on the turn signal and drove to the left fork. The speed dropped to 30km per hour due to uneven roads, and he moved slowly.

“Chi Nan, are you sure that it is safe to go to the fork?” Pei Mo’s voice trembled for unknown reasons.

Chi Nan: “I’m sure it’s not safe to go any way.”

Pei Mo: “…”

Lu Baizhou questioned: “Since it is inferred that the end of 404 is death, we are running out of time. Doesn’t it really delay the time of the main task if we take a fork in the road?”

Jiang Yu was covered with bruises. When the car bumped, she felt pain all over. She supported the front seat to straighten her body and looked out the window: “There are no road signs with any kilometers on either side of this fork. It shouldn’t be counted in the total mileage. Independent mission points will not take up our time.”

After a pause, she said again, “Besides, the motel owner specially told us that we are people in a car and must be neat and tidy to reach the end. I suspect that the nightmare requires every’murderer’ to complete the salvation to pass the customs collectively. , In the end, no matter who makes a mistake, it will cause us to break our dreams and fail.”

The implication is that although this fork in the road is the plot branch opened by Chi Nan’s suicide, it is closely related to the completion of each of them.

Pei Mo: “I suddenly have an idea… Now time is not enough. If we collectively adopt Chi Nan’s suicide method for ‘atonement’, can we speed up the progress?”

Hearing this, Jiang Yu and Lu Baizhou curled their eyebrows without saying a word, but Chi Nan shook their heads: “My situation is special. You’d better wait for the ‘victim’ to kill yourself.”

After all, You Yu said that they can be counted as one person in a sense, so Chi Nan’s suicide can also be counted as ‘homicide’.

“Special? What a special law?” Pei Mo looked over in confusion.

Chi Nan thought for a while, but couldn’t sum up the appropriate wording, so he picked up a statement from You Yu: “I have a physical relationship with the’victim’.”

The car quieted down strangely, and finally Jiang Yu murmured to break the silence: “Unexpectedly…”

Pei Mo thoughtfully: “It turns out that only this kind of relationship can commit suicide? I can’t do this.”

Chi Nan: “Yeah.”

Everyone: “…”

At this time, the sun had been swallowed by most, and only half of the crooked teeth the size of a fingernail hung above the head, and the horizon at the end of the wilderness merged with the endless gray.

Two solitary car lights shone on the bumpy road, and the safety of the people in the car was shattered.

After about twenty minutes, the sun was completely obscured by black shadows, as if night had fallen.

Everyone vaguely saw the outline of a tall building in front of it. It stood quietly at the end of the road, like a monster lurking in the dark waiting for its prey.

Darkness makes people instinctively afraid of things with huge outlines. The moment the dreamer in the car sees the building, he does not consciously breathe and straighten his shoulders. While afraid, he can’t help but crane his neck to look forward.

Until the car lights shone on the rusty gate outside the building, and the dilapidated house number with “Angel Welfare Institute” written on the top of the iron gate…

“Angel Orphanage?” Pei Mo shivered, and intuitively told him that encountering an orphanage in the nightmare world would definitely be horrible.

Chi Nan fixedly looked at the house plate: “It should be the place where my character lived.”

Jiang Yu quickly loosened his seat belt: “Let’s go, maybe it’s a very important clue location.”

Lu Baizhou asked the driver more carefully: “Excuse me, can all of us enter? Or is it only Chi Nan?”

Driver: “Everyone can enter.”

Hearing this, Pei Mo hesitated and said hesitantly, “Go, I’ll wait for you to come out in the car. Go and get back soon.”

Jiang Yu pushed his hand in the car door and said, “You really don’t plan to go with us?”

Pei Mo smiled wryly: “Actually, I am quite afraid of places like orphanages…the children who are abandoned or are born with disabilities have a lot of resentment…I’m really afraid…”

Jiang Yu curled his lips: “Well, you are free, but I think that this new map is a very important point of goodwill, and it is not wise to choose to give up if you have good feelings.”

Lu Baizhou made up: “I don’t know if I will encounter anything in the six hours of the total solar eclipse in the car.”

Pei Mo’s expression changed rapidly. He hesitated and gritted his teeth and said, “Then, I’d better go with you.”

Jiang Yu sneered silently and closed the car door tightly.

Chi Nan turned his head and asked the driver: “If we fail to get out after the total solar eclipse, what will happen?”

The driver took a fixed look at him, patted the steering wheel and said: “You will always stay in the orphanage and accompany these poor and hospitable children.”

The expressions of the three of them changed, only Chi Nan didn’t change their expressions: “Thank you.”

“Wait a minute,” the driver suddenly called the four people who walked into the orphanage, sticking their heads out of the car window, “I can lend you some props, maybe I can provide some help.”

As he said, he got out of the car and opened the trunk, took out two flashlights and a half-meter-long machete, and handed them to everyone, “You know, some children are naughty and difficult, and they need a good lesson.”

Jiang Yu, who had the highest strength in the team, took the initiative to take the machete. Lu Baizhou and Pei Mo scrambled to take two flashlights, but Chi Nan was empty-handed.

He subconsciously touched the pocket of his jacket, and suddenly he felt the dagger that he had put in his pocket at some unknown time.

It was the one he used to cut his neck. You Yu secretly stuffed it in… Chi Nan’s lips were raised indistinctly, even he didn’t notice it.

The driver cracked his stiff lips and raised his hand at them: “Good luck to you.”

Everyone: “…”

The gray wall on the right side of the door was badly damaged, the mottled paint peeled off, and a notice was posted on the wall. It provided the relocation information and contact number of the “Angel Welfare Institute”, which was the familiar number 4040404.

This orphanage was abandoned for a long time, and the last time Chi Nan called was the new site of the orphanage.

It seems that the story background of the two character brothers is deeply related to the abandoned orphanage. Chi Nan thought of a possibility that his brother chose the abandoned orphanage to imprison him in a place where no one would disturb him. After his brother was killed by him, The younger brother’s body is also likely to be buried here.

Moreover, the brothers grew up in the Angel Welfare Institute, and they are all familiar with each other here.

The door of the orphanage was half open. The four entered with a long knife and two flashlights lightly. They did not consciously breathe lightly, for fear that they would make a sound to scare them.

As soon as they stepped into the orphanage, the driver behind them suddenly turned off the car lights, and the surrounding was instantly plunged into darkness with no fingers.

At almost the same time, the twelve o’clock bell came from the direction of the main building of the welfare institute. With the bang of the iron, the door behind them suddenly closed and locked tightly.

Everyone was trapped in the abandoned orphanage in the dark, and there was no way out.

Pei Mo was so frightened by the impact of the iron gate that he almost jumped up, Lu Baizhou’s face was also very bleak, only Chi Nan remained unchanged, and Jiang Yu, who tried to make himself calm.

Jiang Yu couldn’t stand Pei Mo’s grinding and counseling, so he grabbed the flashlight in his hand and opened it neatly and swept it all around.

The front yard is not big, about the size of a basketball court. The ground is full of books, children’s toys and various sundries that were too late to clean up during the relocation. There is an abandoned angel sculpture fountain in the middle of the yard. The angels are badly damaged and there is water in the pool. It was also mostly dried, and it was covered with fallen leaves and moss, giving off a stink of rotten branches.

There is a dilapidated iron swing on the right side of the yard. Obviously there is no wind, but the swing swayed and swayed higher and higher. The creaking sound of the friction of the iron chain echoed in the empty yard, which made people shudder.

Everyone knows exactly what is swinging on the swing.

The light of the flashlight in Jiang Yu’s hand fell on the door of the main building. Unfortunately, the thick and big iron door was locked.

“It seems we have to find a way to unlock the lock to get in.” Jiang Yu said.

Lu Baizhou: “I just know how to unlock the lock, but I’m not proficient. Maybe I can try it.”

Chi Nan feels very lucky. He meets a teammate who will pick the lock almost every time he has, and he can always come in handy at critical times.

Jiang Yu nodded: “Then you and I are here to study how to open the lock, Chi Nan and Pei Mo are looking for clues in the yard.”

Chi Nan: “No problem.”

He just wanted to take the flashlight that Jiang Yu handed over, and Pei Mo grabbed it in his hand first: “Let me light it up.”

He said that he didn’t consider Chi Nan’s decision, and walked towards the walls on both sides of the courtyard with a flashlight.

After all, human beings are light-tending creatures, and light can bring him a certain degree of security, and he can’t let this comfort be taken away from his hands.

Chi Nan himself didn’t mind very much. Jiang Yu on the side saw Pei Mo’s behavior in his eyes, and sighed secretly while feeling understanding.

Pei Mo’s flashlight beam shone on the red brick walls on both sides of the main building. After walking about five or six meters, Pei Mo’s footsteps froze, and the terror spread quickly on his face.

Chi Nan looked over his eyes and saw that the long red brick wall was filled with chalk paintings. These chalk paintings were of immature style, obviously by the children of the orphanage, but the contents of the paintings were uniform and shuddering. ——

The murderer carrying a chainsaw to break down the corpse, the pica patient who is enjoying a human dinner, the soldier who is executing the hanging, the doctor who binds the prisoner to the chair and injects death medicine into him…

All the chalk paintings depict the process of killing. The immature style of painting brings a powerful visual impact. The level of strange and terrifying killing chalk paintings is even higher than that of the colorful death painting exhibition in “Twilight Cruise”.

Chi Nan looked at it for a moment with an eye of evaluation, and thought that the use of the dreamer’s imagery fits the nightmare theme of the’murderer’, and is of great help to the sublimation theme.

Pei Mo took a step back unconsciously in fright, but he also understood that he couldn’t keep on doing this, so he swallowed his saliva and forced down his fear and nausea, and raised the flashlight again to look at the chalk drawings on the wall one by one.

Maybe you can find clues to his character’s death in these paintings…maybe…

The speed of light from the flashlight stagnated again, and this time Pei Mo suddenly froze in place like a sculpture, fixedly looking at the pica patient’s human flesh-baking dinner on the wall.

In the picture, the patient raised a blazing bonfire, skewered the freshly cut female nurse’s calf on the grill, turned the grill with his left hand, and brushed the cumin sauce on the scorched and cracked skin with his right hand… and he was not far away. , The dying female nurse was watching the desperate picture of her calf being roasted in tears…

Pei Mo looked like a nightmare, he looked very ecstatic, his pupils gradually lost their luster, he was holding a flashlight step by step towards the wall, and even stretched out his hand to touch…

Chi Nan on the side was looking for his own murder chalk drawing in another direction because his night vision ability was better than ordinary people. He tried to find clues about the corpse through the painting, and did not pay much attention to Pei Mo’s abnormal behavior.

Until Pei Mo’s desperate scream broke the silence of the orphanage, everyone looked over at the same time, and Jiang Yu quickly raised a flashlight to show Pei Mo’s location.

When seeing Pei Mo’s current horrible situation clearly, everyone couldn’t help taking a breath.
