Idle game leads to another world
Chapter 879: By Your Side
This is Gan Xiaoyan's first time to travel far away, and in fact, it is similar for other people.
The system of working in different areas of the nine departments means that the nine departments in a place may not need to go out of town for their entire lives. Moreover, they are usually busy with work, and when they finally have a vacation, they will lie lazily at home and sleep. No one will travel far away.
But this situation suddenly occurred on the high-speed rail, which is abnormal no matter how you look at it.
Combined with the attack on Lei Lei, it is obvious that something is behind this matter, and the target must be Lei Lei.
Speaking of Lei Lei, she is still in a coma. If she can't wake up, she can't wake up. There is no use in being anxious, otherwise Lei Lei can still talk about what happened.
Although the nine departments deal with supernatural phenomena and creatures, most of them are just ordinary people who rely on experience and equipment.
No one has seen this situation now, and no one has read similar materials, and there is no experience to learn from.
As for equipment...
It can only be said that time is tight and preparation is not thorough.
Because the nine departments work in different areas, personnel cannot move around at will. Unless they obtain permission from the General Administration, it is an act of violating internal discipline to enter the jurisdiction of other nine departments without authorization.
This was done to prevent someone from relying on supernatural things to make profits for themselves in the Nine Sections, and to prevent the local Nine Sections from uniting to fight against the General Administration.
Since the war faction in the Nine Sections advocated the complete elimination of monsters, Qian Sen could not explain the matter too clearly, so he only arranged an identity of "headquarters special envoy" for Gan Xiaoyan and others, under the name of the local branch that suddenly lost contact during the Jingzhou inspection.
And because the action was hasty, there was no time to greet the railway department, so naturally it was impossible to bring things like pistols on the car, and even a baton would not work.
So Gan Xiaoyan and others are now literally unarmed, with only some equipment that will not be intercepted by security checks.
And what's even more uncomfortable is that there are only two people in Qian Sen's jurisdiction who can be considered as fighting.
One is Lei Lei, who is in a coma.
The other is Li Chengxi, who went to shit.
There is no third person who can provide help.
In this weird silence, Gan Xiaoyan took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
At this time, another situation that made people uncalm occurred.
The lights in the rear carriage began to flicker, as if there was a bad connection, accompanied by the roaring thunder outside the carriage, as if it was some special drumbeat.
Everyone felt their throats tighten, as if an invisible hand gently grabbed their throats and would strangle them at any time, which made everyone unable to help but touch their necks to confirm that there was nothing on them.
The frequency of flickering became higher and higher, and Gan Xiaoyan knew that she couldn't watch it like this.
"Everyone take out the cloaks, we must not mess up."
Gan Xiaoyan's words awakened the others who were in a state of fear, and they quickly opened their shoulder bags and took out the folded cloaks from them.
Although it is called a cloak, the fabric is actually more similar to a raincoat, and the color is also similar to that of a raincoat. Some even have cartoon patterns on them. People who don't know will think it's just a plastic raincoat.
But this is actually the life-saving straw for the survival of the Nine Departments.
There is no time to wear it, everyone curled up in their seats, and then covered themselves with the cloaks, carefully pressing the corners to ensure that the body is not exposed.
The cloak of concealment can avoid many detections, and one of the most important properties is that it can make undead creatures turn a blind eye to the people under the cloak.
The way undead creatures observe the world is of course different from that of living people. Not to mention whether the eyes of zombies still have functions, ghosts without entities certainly do not use their naked eyes to observe the world.
In the eyes of undead creatures, the world is a large area of chaotic and cold lines, but in their eyes, living people are like glowing red beams, which are extremely conspicuous.
The cloak of concealment can block the signals of living people. In the eyes of undead creatures, there are no living people here at all.
Maybe Gan Xiaoyan regarded this as a ghost causing trouble. After all, if you look at this style of painting, it is very ghost movie-like.
Then again, isn't it the monsters who are causing trouble this time?
Why are there ghosts?
This is because ghosts and monsters are inseparable.
In the eyes of monsters, people who become spirits are ghosts.
There are also monsters who will form alliances with powerful ghosts, and no one can say for sure.
Gan Xiaoyan shared a cloak with Lei Lei because she was smaller. She protected Lei Lei and lay on her, then covered her with the cloak.
The cloak was translucent, and the view became dim. It was faintly visible that the lights in the compartment began to flicker and sway.
No one dared to breathe. They were like children who had watched horror movies during the day and had horror scenes in their minds in the middle of the night. They curled up in the quilt, as if they could only feel safe here. It was a barrier that demons and ghosts could not break through.
This behavior was more ostrich-like, but it was the only way at present. They could only hope that Li Chengxi would find that they were missing when he came back, and then come to find them.
The frequency of the flickering lights became faster and faster, and finally accompanied by the faint sound of the wick, the lights disappeared completely, and the inside and outside of the cloak fell into darkness.
Everyone seemed to be able to hear their own breathing and the thumping sound of their hearts beating violently. They quickly covered their mouths and noses, tried to slow down their breathing, and calmed themselves down.
In this extremely quiet environment, they heard it.
——Swish…
——Swish…
It was like the sound of some sharp metal object being dragged on the floor, slight, but in this extremely quiet environment, it was more piercing than any other sound.
Especially this sound, it seemed to be getting closer and closer, and was moving towards their position.
No one dared to lift the cloak to take a look. The blocking effect of the cloak was purely due to the special material. If a little bit of the breath of a living person was leaked, it might be detected by the undead creatures.
The sound was getting closer and closer. The stuffiness and slight lack of oxygen made Gan Xiaoyan a little dazed. She felt like she smelled a sweet smell. She didn't know whether it was in the car or the perfume on Lei Lei's body. It was a special fragrance that was hard to describe.
Then Gan Xiaoyan shuddered. Her consciousness had just been in a trance for a moment, and this shudder just made her regain consciousness.
A thought suddenly popped up in her mind.
This fragrance was like sweet blood.
Even Gan Xiaoyan herself didn't know why this thought suddenly popped up, but it was extremely strong.
She hugged Lei Lei tightly, and the body temperature of a living person brought her a sense of security.
She resisted the uncontrollable trembling of her shoulders and prayed silently in her heart that all this would pass quickly.
But things often go against one's wishes in this world.
A faint sound of footsteps, mixed with the sound of swishing and dragging, did not go away, but was gradually approaching.
Until a moment later, the sound stopped.
But Gan Xiaoyan did not feel at ease at all, because she seemed to feel that something was standing next to her, and the two were only separated by a thin layer of fabric of the cloak...
