Chapter 14 A walk by the lake(1/2)

Because it is already evening,

The free boat ride has ended and you have to wait until tomorrow.

The sun sets down the hillside through the mist, and night falls.

Yi Chen came to the window,

Oh~tear off the newspapers plastered all over the windows.

Looking down the street towards the center of the town, one can clearly see the light emitted by the giant bonfire.

Both small town residents and foreign tourists put on masks and went to participate in the bonfire party.

The bustling crowd, each carrying candles or kerosene lamps,

Just after nightfall, Green Lake Town was completely illuminated.

This also includes the group of people who invited Yi Chen to join the team.

They wear masks of different styles, which also conceal weapons.

"It seems that most of the people who came to take the assessment chose to attend tonight's bonfire party... Little Putao, let's go and have a look too~ Maybe we can find out more information."

"Let's go, maybe we can get some delicious grapes."

Before the action, Little Grape consciously got into the body and reappeared when needed.

Who knows,

Just when Yi Chen pushed the door open and walked out,

The haggard-looking innkeeper also happened to pass by the door.

It is worth noting that when

The boss was holding a plate of 'raw fish dishes' in his hand and seemed to be taking it to the room at the end of the corridor.

The so-called raw fish is a whole dead fish that has not been processed in any way and is put on the dinner plate, rotten and smelly.

The two looked at each other,

The boss held the dinner plate in one hand and put his index finger between his lips with the other hand.

In a voice that only two people could hear, he warned in a low voice:

“This town has violated [the rules] for a long time. It is rotten from the root. If you want to survive, just stay in your room and don’t go to the bonfire party wrapped in a gorgeous exterior.

Leave here quietly early tomorrow morning..."

Yi Chen frowned slightly when he heard these words.

Apparently the innkeeper knows some secrets about the town.

Yi Chen also lowered his voice and replied in a low voice:

"For some special reasons, I need to stay in Green Lake Town for three days."

"Three days... basically no tourist can stay for that long and leave normally.

Even if you stay in my hotel and don't leave for an inch... something will still go wrong.

Just tonight's bonfire party can tie many foreign tourists to the town forever.

Judging from your outfit, you must be here for investigation, right?"

"You can say that."

"If you really want to investigate something, you can go for a walk by the lake tonight, maybe you will find something.

remember.

Do not participate in any activities held by this town, and do not drink any water sources... Any interaction with Green Lake Town will thicken your 'tie' with the town."

"Thanks."

The boss said nothing more,

Walking almost silently towards the end of the corridor, he put down the dinner plate in front of his 'sister''s door.

Even when the dinner plate touched the floor, it didn't make any noise.

Yi Chen finally discovered that his boss's "silent characteristic" was not weird.

But two reasons,

First, he has lived in a hotel since he was a child. He has stepped on every inch of the floor at least tens of thousands of times, and he knows very well where to step to avoid making any noise.

Secondly, out of concern for my sister, I tried my best to create a silent environment and not to disturb the other party.

"Since I will stay here for three more days, I will have plenty of opportunities to communicate with the boss in depth... There is no need to rush to ask 'sister' or about things in the town now.

Let’s go for a walk by the lake as suggested by the boss.』



Not long after Yi Chen left,

There was a noise from the locked room at the end of the second floor.

card~

There is a hidden opening at the bottom of the locked door that is no bigger than your head.

Currently enabled internally.

First, a pool of foul-smelling liquid came out~

Immediately afterwards, an arm covered with fish scales suddenly stretched out and took away the dead fish from the dinner plate.

squeaky squeaky~

Strange gnawing sounds came from inside the door.



【Green Lakeside】

Due to the diseased mist that filled the sky.

The light of the so-called moon or stars is blocked.

The process of the sun setting is like drawing a curtain on the world and instantly falling into darkness.

At the same time, due to the bonfire party, more than 90% of the people in the town were gathered there.

The lakeside became extremely deserted, completely wrapped in darkness.

Yi Chen wrapped his body tightly in the black coat, with the hood covering his face.

Step on the fine gravel and walk through the moist soil.

The kerosene lamp once again became the only source of light,

The little grapes hidden in the cuffs are also peeking ahead,

After walking along the lakeside for more than ten minutes, I couldn't see a single living person.

The mist settling on the surface of the lake also blocks any creature from peeking into the green lake. Even Yi Chen, who has received visual enhancements, is also restricted.

in addition,

There are warning signs erected every ten meters on the shore.

【No swimming】

[It is prohibited to take water privately]

[No contact with Green Lake]

"The area of ​​this lake is really not small..."

When sighing for a moment,

A small cruise ship slowly sailed out from the mist on the lake, heading towards Yi Chen's location.

A man in blue overalls was standing on the edge of the boat, smiling and waving.

"We are currently providing free boat rides. Want to visit Green Lake?"

"No thanks."

After Yi Chen waved his hand to refuse, he turned around and left without looking back.

In the process of moving away from the ship,

Little Putao quietly moved to the back of his neck and poked out half of his eyes to observe the situation behind him.

The rejected staff did not pursue him.

Instead, he maintained an extremely exaggerated and inconsistent smile,

My widened eyes felt like they were about to fall out of their sockets,

Not blinking at all,
To be continued...
