Boundless Darkness 23

It was nine o’clock in the evening when Kai Xin went out.

It’s raining again in Tonglin City. It’s the kind of drizzle that hits people’s faces with only a slight feeling.

Originally, Kai Xin didn’t feel much about the rain. She liked to fall asleep to the sound of the rain. Her tired brain became much more relaxed under the comfort of white noise. But after living in Heihai City for so long, Kai Xin hated rainy days, because there was a lot of rain in that city, and rain would make her have bad associations.

If the blood of the mutated creature flows further away with the rain, will it infect more creatures? Or does it mean that the blood of mutant creatures needs to reach a certain concentration to be effective, and it won’t be effective after being diluted by rain?

Kai Xin walked towards the destination while thinking about the changes brought about by the weather.

There was plenty of time, so instead of using the space vortex, she chose to walk. Excessive use of extraordinary abilities will reduce physical strength. There have been too many variables in Tonglin City recently, and she must conserve physical strength to deal with emergencies.

Kaixin carried some necessary tools on her body. In addition to weapons, she also brought video cameras, tape, cotton swabs, syringes, small glass bottles, spare gloves, plastic bags… and even a large bag of fish viscera in her hand , that was what she asked for from the fish-killing boss at the vegetable market. He said it was for feeding the cats, and the boss generously packed a big bag for her.

The more important small item, Kai Xin, is placed in the sports purse that she carries with her. The internal organs of the fish can only be carried by hand. When encountering a dangerous situation, just throw away the internal organs. The purse will not affect her fighting, but it will Affects her from using Shadow Shuttle, as they are overweight.

Kui Xin stopped and walked in Tonglin City, avoiding the monitoring, paying attention to the movement around him, and connecting to the monitoring from time to time to check the surrounding situation.

The number of mutated creatures has not yet surged, such asMutant creatures like wild boars who dare to appear in cities to attack humans are rare. After more than an hour, Kai Xin arrived in the suburbs smoothly. She encountered no accidents or suspicious persons along the way.

Kai Xin walked into the tobacco factory with light steps and suppressed her breath. She stood in the shadows and listened carefully, listening for the squeaks of mice and the movements of mutant creatures. Unfortunately, she heard nothing, only the rain shattered the broken glass the sound of.

She first went to the place where the mutant creatures were killed last night. The blood on the ground had dried up. There were no other traces, and there were no dead animals lying around, which made her heave a sigh of relief.

When they reached the place where Fang Zhi died, Kai Xin took out a cotton swab and a glass bottle from her pocket, dipped the swab in the blood that had dried up on the ground long ago, and tried to get some samples, but it was a pity that too much time had passed, so she reluctantly dipped it in. There was a bit of a dark brown substance that was mixed with dust and was a little hard to make out.

Kai Xin packed the cotton swabs and put them in a sealed bag to put them away.

Then she took out the tape and camera from her bag, adjusted the shooting mode first, then glued the camera to the wall with tape, repeatedly checked the shooting angle, and then left the place.

After twelve o’clock, she will come to recover the camera.

Kai Xin changed the location and came to a remote and hidden place near the tobacco factory. She threw a bag of fish viscera she weighed on the ground, opened the bag, and let the smell of blood waft in the air.

This is the ditch near the tobacco factory, which is connected to a sewer. There should be many rats living in it.

Among the mutated creatures that Kai Xin had seen were mice. There didn’t seem to be many mice left in the tobacco factory. After all, there was no one living there, and there was no food, so she squatted in another place.

After doing all this, Kai Xin climbed up to a nearby tree, sat on the branch and began to wait boredly.

After all, what she is doing is fishing, so she needs to have the patience to fish.

It wasn’t raining very hard. Kai Xin pulled on his hoodie and his hat was covered by leaves, so he didn’t feel uncomfortable sitting in the rain.

Half an hour later, just as Kai Xin was about to move his position with the fish viscera and squat at a new location, a red spot of light suddenly flashed in the grid at the sewer entrance.

Kai Xin immediately sat up straight, she leaned forward and stared closely at the direction of the sewer, a kitchen knife was pulled out by an invisible “hand”, suspended under the action of the “magnetic sword”, and floated quietly by her side .

The red spot of light swayed twice, and came out from the mouth of the sewer where a corner was missing. It was a mouse. The hair on the mouse was basically bald, revealing pink flesh. Its limbs were extremely long. Like a spider, the body is very deformed, but such a deformed body can move quickly on the ground.

The mouse rushed towards the fish viscera that Kai Xin placed on the ground as fast as lightning, grabbed a fish gill, turned his head, and ran back to the sewer.

Kai Xin didn’t move. In less than a minute, the disappearing mouse reappeared. It was much calmer this time, not as anxious as it was last time.

It sniffed left and right to make sure there was no danger around it, then moved to the side of the fish internal organs, buried its face in the bag and began to eat.

The mouse was eating, and Kai Xin waited patiently. However, when the mouse almost ate up all the fish offal in the bag, and no mutant mouse appeared, Kai Xin had no choice but to give up waiting, and the suspended kitchen knife swished away. He nailed the mouse to the ground.

She swiftly jumped down from a tree several meters high, pulled out the kitchen knife from the mouse, took out the prepared glass bottle, unpacked a pack of disposable gloves, and put the plastic gloves on the gloved hands , pinching the corpse of the mutated mouse that hadn’t had time to turn into blood in disgust, and collected its blood into a glass bottle.

After finishing all this, Kai Xin took out the plastic bag that he had prepared earlier, and quickly put the mouse’s body in it. The mouse’s body melted not long after being stuffed into the plastic bag. This time the blood did not flow to the ground, but was well wrapped in a plastic bag.

“Fortunately, it is not corrosive, otherwise the bag would be perforated.” Kai Xin tied the mouth of the bag tightly to prevent the liquid from leaking.

In a rush of preparations for a day, Kai Xin could only find something like a bag to hold the dead mouse. If she encountered a big wild boar and the bag couldn’t hold it, she might have to find a street trash can to hold the dead body.

The blood in the bag must be disposed of. The blood sample in the glass bottle is the same as the dried blood taken with a cotton swab and must be kept.

Kai Xin still had a little bit of fish viscera left in his hand, so he left from the entrance of the sewer and changed to another location, intending to sit around here and wait for the mutated creatures to come to his door.

But it was unknown whether the density of mutant creatures was too low or she was just unlucky. Until nearly twelve o’clock, Kai Xin still failed to catch the second mutant creature.

The mobile phone in her pocket vibrated, and she set two alarm clocks, one alarm clock was set at 23:58 to remind her that midnight was approaching, and the other alarm clock was set at 23:58. , used to help her confirm the time when the space-time distortion phenomenon appeared.

Kai Xin took out his mobile phone and pressed the watch, cleaned up the scene and used the space vortex to stay away from the tobacco factory.

She was not sure whether the mutation happened only in the tobacco factory or in other places in Tonglin City. Judging from the reactions of He Kangshi and Su Rong, the former should be more likely. What Kaixin has to do is to find out the truth of the matter, rule out those possibilities, and find the most correct option as much as possible.

She stood on the top floor of a building that was a little far away from the tobacco factory but could overlook the tobacco factory. She finally lowered her head to glance at the time, silently staring at the dark and dilapidated buildings in the distance.

The thin rain slapped on her mask, and a layer of tiny water droplets condensed on it.

Kai Xin was so nervous that he hardly dared to blink.

Finally, it’s zero o’clock! The moment the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated, Kai Xin caught an incredible scene with his naked eyes. The whole tobacco factory seemed to be covered by a transparent glass cover. The transparent glass cover twisted and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Yes, the whole process takes less than a second.

Kai Xin opened his mouth in amazement, moved his feet, and a deep blue vortex spread out behind him.

She turned around and walked into the whirlpool.

When she came out again, she was already standing inside the tobacco factory.

There seemed to be nothing around, but it was still so silent and gloomy, and the sound of rain hitting the glass was very clear.

Kai Xin stepped forward and tore off the video camera that had been fixed with tape from the wall. He was shocked to find that the video camera was actually hot and smelled of glue.

She raised the camera and looked, and found that the camera had circle after circle of cracks, as if it could not bear the pressure of something and collapsed. She opened the card slot where the memory card was installed, the corner of her mouth twitched, and found that the memory card had melted directly into the card slot.

Kai Xin’s hair stood on end, he raised his head and silently scanned the dark tobacco factory, realizing that this place was very unusual.

This is the place where Fang Zhi died. It is the place where Kai Xin killed people for the first time in the first world. It is also the place where the phenomenon of time-space distortion occurred… Why did the electronic equipment of the recording burn directly? Is it the influence of an unknown force, or…

Kai Xin squeezed the camera tightly, temporarily stopping these meaningless thoughts.

She put away the damaged camera and decided to investigate the tobacco factory again to rule out the crisis. The space-time distortion phenomenon has appeared here twice, and it might bring unknown changes to this tobacco factory.

Kai Xin quietly went downstairs, took off his waist bag and held it in his hand. Whenever something went wrong, she threw away her overweight fanny pack and launched a shadow shuttle to avoid physical attacks.

She moved down the rusty stairs step by step, and vigilantly vigilant around her surroundings.

“Tap…”

The sound of water droplets dripping suddenly sounded, and then, Kai Xin heard the sound of breathing, the breathing sound of the second person besides her!

A tall and thin figure stood at the bottom of the stairs, the upper body was just blocked by the shadow, only a pair of feet wearing sneakers were exposed, and the sneakers were stained with water.

The man stopped moving, and Kai Xin also stopped moving.

The light is not good tonight, there is no light in the tobacco factory, and Kai Xin lost his electronic eyes, so he couldn’t see the face of the person opposite him clearly for a while, but he could only vaguely recognize that it was a man, whose face seemed to be disguised.

The man raised his head and looked up, while Kai Xin lowered his head and looked at him coldly.

None of them spoke, and none of them took the next step.

It was like two lions meeting on the prairie. They looked at each other from a long distance away, evaluating each other’s strength and danger, and thinking about whether to avoid each other or engage in a bloody fight with each other.

At this moment, the man’s cell phone vibrated suddenly.

Humming twice, breaking the frozen air.

The man didn’t answer the phone. He looked at Kai Xin and took a step back gently.

Kai Xin looked at him for a second, then stepped back slowly up a step.

They made a tacit concession, and the tense atmosphere eased slightly.

The man reached into his pocket and pressed the phone to call, but within two seconds, the phone rang again.

Kai Xin looked at him, slowly took out his mobile phone from his pocket, swiped open the screen and tapped twice, then stretched out the glowing screen to him.

A line of words appeared on the screen: “You can answer the phone.”

The man breathed a sigh of relief, took a few steps back, turned on the phone to cover the screen and said, “I’m busy, I’ll get back to you later.”

“Brother.” A little girl yawned and said, “I have too much homework… There is one math problem that I can’t…”

“Right away.” The man hung up the phone, raised his head and looked at Kai Xin.

Kai Xin nodded to him lightly, as if saying, “What a coincidence.”

The ghost with a human face said slowly in his mind: “There are all familiar auras here, and she also has them. She must be an insider.”
