Returning from the abyss

Chapter 873

The staff of Rufus Real Estate did not expect Yin He's speed to be so fast. Almost as soon as Lu Ning was put down on the front foot, the nursing home was surrounded by people on the back foot.

"Call the person in charge!" The captain of this team knew that neither his ability nor his status was at the level of the person in charge, so he hurriedly asked someone to contact Parker, the person in charge of Rufus Real Estate, and at the same time ordered his subordinates to hide him a little.

When he took action, the door was roughly pushed open by two security guards.Yin He walked in with a step, her expression was stern, and she seemed to be a little emotional.

"Boss Yin! Boss Yin! This is where Rufus Real Estate manages..."

"Take it."

The captain and several people who came out to stop people were directly held down by the security guards brought by Yin He without a chance to speak.She glanced at these people: "I will check your identities, but someone has to take responsibility for kidnapping the guests we jointly invited in the film and television base."

"Kidnapping? Boss Yin! How could we kidnap? We're just doing routine inspections. Where will someone be kidnapped..."

Yin He completely ignored the captain's words, left a few people to control the situation, and led the rest into the sanatorium.

Holding the tablet in her hand, she skimmed over a series of shot numbers, quickly finalized a few numbers, and began to play back the video clips.The trajectory of Lu Ning being taken by people was intermittently recorded within the shooting range of each camera.

Although Chenfeng Group has the monitoring network, it is limited to agreements with other investors, and it is impossible to deploy it densely in all buildings. Only some public places and corridors have it.But with Yin He's inductive ability, a few fragments are enough to delineate the route. She turned two corners, walked to a relatively remote corridor, made a gesture, and the security guards rushed over to guard the corridor on every door.

As the person in charge, everyone has a master key card of the film and television base. Yin He walked through the corridor and opened every door here with the key card, but there was no one in the room behind each door.

"The transfer was pretty fast?" Yin He was a little surprised.

"Not very fast."

The wall at the end of the corridor suddenly opened, and Lu Ning stood behind the door rubbing her eyes. Behind her were two sleeping men, not far from the entrance of the secret passage.

The sleep injection is just a means to get out of danger, and the dosage is only for about an hour of sleep, depending on the body constitution.Lu Ning's spirit was a little too vigilant, and it was impossible for her to sleep for so long, and woke up during the transfer process.Out of the instinct of self-protection, she put these two people down first, and then fumbled to find the switch to open the secret passage, and answered her when she heard Yin He's question.

"Ok?"

"What's so unexpected, you must know my whereabouts... No, maybe even you came here at the behest of Yin Xiu, right? But thank you very much. Anyone who has to be called out at such a late hour will feel a little unhappy."

"Within responsibility."

Yin He replied calmly, but it could be heard that the trace of unhappiness when he entered the door just now was gone.

"Who are these people?" Lu Ning looked around,

"Sorry, this is our internal matter, and I will guarantee that similar situations will not happen in the future." Yin He was quite strict in this regard, and she asked the people next to her to get the two sleeping people out , and then studied the secret passage again, then took Lu Ning back to the hotel.

At this moment, it was already early morning, and the surroundings fell into silence.

"Tomorrow...there's still work, ha—" Lu Ning yawned before waking up from the drowsiness.

"There will be an event tomorrow, and everyone needs to go to the designated location for the event. There is no need to film the TV series. This can be regarded as a small break, and everyone can enjoy it to the fullest."

"Activity? What activity?"

"The official statement is a press conference, to make an announcement about our current situation. But generally speaking, it should be a celebration, and it is also to divert the attention of the public."

"Say it so directly?"

"I don't think you can't see it." Yin He looked at Lu Ning, "Besides your job, you have shown a lot of special things. Even the chairman of the board has paid special attention to you, and I will definitely change my view of you .”

Yin Xiu is quite a person.

But since he has already become an ally, and this time it is a crisis that Lu Ning resolves, if he can't even express this, Lu Ning will simply give up the alliance with this kind of person.

After returning to the hotel, Lu Ning did not see Qu Yi in the room.After she was silent for a moment, she did not send any message to the other party. After the announcement of the second phase of the mission, it is estimated that everyone has their own concerns. Also in a difficult situation.

But if the other party does not come to ask, Lu Ning does not intend to provide any help.

This scene is more chaotic than any previous ones. Lu Ning barely has the ability to protect herself, but it's just self-protection. She doesn't even know what the most powerful threat in the world is.At the same time, the real fatality behind the fatal shooting has not yet shown its fangs-a thing that is emphasized in the scene name by the distribution center cannot be just a background board.

She fell asleep again, but today's sleep was not particularly restful.

In a frozen village, a candle about the height of a floor was burning quietly.In the strong wind, the dead villagers crawled around the candles, forming a strange scene of worship, but Lu Ning is not the kind of bird's eye view now, she sees that she is really standing here.

"Ha... are you finally willing to open your mouth?" Lu Ning felt the cold around her, but quickly understood what was going on here.

[——hiss———]

There was a whistling in the cold wind, and the wind from a distant place was circling in the sky, gradually forming a deep black pupil.

Lu Ning didn't look up, she just continued to stand where she was.No matter how fierce Dong is, she must rely on her to develop his power in the real world, and to be able to find himself. These mantras probably don't have many believers.

[Your consciousness has been damaged. 】

The candle flickered, and a very gentle voice sounded in Lu Ning's ear.

"Funny, I thought you guys couldn't have a human conversation."

[Analyzing the language is not too difficult a behavior.It is more difficult to change the way.We are here, we exist because of you, and we don't want to die. 】

The candle flickered a little, and though the voice was gentle, the manner of speaking was indeed like a crude imitation of someone who has not yet mastered the art of language.However, Lu Ning had no trust in mantras from the very beginning, no matter what kind of voice they used.

"Impaired consciousness?"

[The damaged ones usually don't realize it, but we don't want to hurt us because of this reason. You are the means to keep us awake, and it's not the time to separate. 】

It was probably the price she paid when she came out of the Endless Theater. Lu Ning was already prepared for this, so she was not surprised.She thought for a while and asked, "What do you want me to do? Let's go straight to the main topic?"

[You are too close to danger, we think you will not be able to survive easily. 】

Lu Ning decided not to bother about the other party's weird way of speaking.

"You know, I won't listen to your words. I also have my own purpose in going to the Endless Theater this time. I will definitely not..."

[We remind you that you choose to accept it or not.The mantra is different from people, but the mantra still survives.We dare not because of fear. 】

"Don't you dare?" Lu Ning was slightly surprised, "What are you afraid of? You are the truth, and there is no concept of fear from your knowledge..."

[This word originated from you, can be understood, and can be described.We arise and pass away, but there is still desire.We devour our own kind in order to grow ourselves. We are not the masters of this world before the ocean floods the land. 】

"You really want to dominate this world." Lu Ning said.

[Doubt, aren’t you also ruling the world?How is your group different from ours? 】

"Obviously isn't it? If we are the rulers now, then you who want to replace us are the enemy. Since you can understand fear, you should also understand the concept of the enemy, right?"

[Understood, but this has nothing to do with the present.A long process, even longer than your life, you and we are still related today, this time the dream is a reminder that there will be no next time, the things we fear are looking for us.Note that if you are discovered, you will also be killed by the enemy, and all previous efforts will be for naught. 】

Lu Ning frowned, but before she could ask any further questions, the wind in the sky suddenly picked up, and after the candlelight shone, Lu Ning had already left the dream.

No...was it really just a dream there?She remembered that she seemed to have dreamed about the destruction of that village...

When she woke up in the morning, Lu Ning felt extremely energetic.

She didn't know what the hell was going on with those mantras, but since she was in good spirits, she didn't think about any side effects for the time being.

Qu Yi was not in the room. She didn't come back when Lu Ning fell asleep yesterday, and she was still not there when she woke up today.There was no trace of the quilt being used at all, and Lu Ning just glanced at it, and then began to sort out the things for today's departure.

No matter how you look at it from any angle, today will not be a day of peace.

When she was about to go out, she received another text message from Yin Xiu, telling her that she, Qin Zhilan and Wei Jia had successfully escaped from the Endless Theater, and reminding her that she must go to this reception today.

In other words, there is indeed a problem with this reception?
The location of the reception was in the largest auditorium in Area 1. Lu Ning just got closer and saw a large crowd gathered there.Although they were all stopped outside the auditorium, the enthusiasm of this group of people has not diminished, and there are several large screens outside that are broadcasting the situation inside the auditorium in real time.

The invited reporters are already taking their seats, while the staff on the stage are still busy making arrangements.Lu Ning walked up the steps and was stopped by the security guards, but she was allowed to pass after she showed her ID.

Walking inside, Lu Ning discovered that apart from the reception area that was photographed, other places are actually quite convoluted. Except for the large auditorium area in the middle, this building is surrounded by three-story corridors, and these three-story corridors are composed of The outside and the inside are stepped down, and there are some rooms like small meeting rooms on the corridors of each floor.Not all the people who came in went directly into the inner auditorium, and many people took advantage of the early time to take pictures in the corridor outside.

Some of these people have press credentials, and some don't.

Soon, she saw Ke Daolin and Mei Yu in the crowd, and these two people did not rush in, they were walking and taking pictures while walking in the outermost corridor.Lu Ning walked over and was also spotted by Ke Daolin.

"Morning."

"Morning, did you act together yesterday?"

"Mei Yu and I have been together, but no one else has seen it. We are currently collecting relevant information, and the sooner we complete the task, the sooner we will save our worries."

"Is there any gain? I also checked yesterday."

"I found two or three possible locations, such as the sight line convenience store we've seen, and the location of the cockroach supermarket, but we didn't dare to go in. Besides, I also tried to find other locations, To be honest, it is harder to find than imagined." Cordoline replied.

"Have you seen Qu Yi?"

"We've been separated since we left the set." Mei Yu said in a low voice, "I think she's been talking a little bit lately."

"Anything is possible in the scene." Ke Daolin stopped Mei Yu from continuing, "There must be some special things happening at today's press conference, right?"

"I think there must be. This kind of nodal event is always inseparable from the turning point. Oh, it's not clear whether it's a turning point or a worsening." Lu Ning shrugged.

"It officially starts at ten o'clock, and we plan to look here to see if there is a place similar to the previous one." Ke Daolin said with a look of "you understand", "Do you want to look for it with us?"

"No, thank you, I have some other ideas that I want to verify, and I will tell you if I succeed." Lu Ning declined Ke Daolin's invitation.Then, she bid farewell to the two and walked into the corridor on the second floor.

In contrast, the number of people in the corridor on the second floor is much less. After all, apart from the difference in terrain height, there is actually no difference between the two corridors.Lu Ning just walked around a little bit, and left after seeing that there were no mantra-like ritual arrangements here.However, when inspecting the corridor on the third floor, Lu Ning finally found some clues.

Although it is not the ritual trace of the mantra, it seems to have some other engravings.There are some shallow patterns written on the solid and new floor with very inconspicuous scratches.

Lu Ning couldn't identify what these patterns were, but she tried it with a thin needle. These seemingly shallow patterns had actually penetrated deep into the floor tiles, and she didn't know what was arranged underneath.

She thought about it, and called Yin Xiu directly. It's not in vain if she has connections.

But the news of Yin Xiu's return is even more worrying - in the surveillance network of Chenfeng Group, no one has been seen tampering with the floor.
