The strange glove was made of pitch-black leather, and at the front of each finger, there was an extremely long blade, like five bright scalpels...

Of course, Ziliang knew this pair of gloves. It belonged to [Freddy Kruger], the character who appeared in a fictional way. This glove almost became a symbol of him.

Ziliang raised his head, and then... as scheduled saw the face seen in the illusion. The hideous skin was scorched by the flames and fell off, revealing the bright red flesh and blood inside, and the scabbed blood vessels were clearly exposed.

That face is enough to be called a nightmare... and his red and blue shirt and top hat, which reveals a strange feeling of combining horror and absurdity everywhere.

But... what Ziliang cares more about... his eyes.

It was an extremely calm pair of eyes, quiet and silent, as if it had nothing to do with the cruel eyes in the illusion. It was also incompatible with his image. Anyway, [Freddy Kruger] appeared in front of Ziliang, without a trace of omen, and no one saw how he appeared.

A moment of trance...

Everything in front of Ziliang's eyes began to rotate until it disappeared. Except for Freddy's eyes, they were still staring at him firmly.

Immediately afterwards...

It's a smell of dust.

Ziliang suddenly woke up.

He found himself standing in a bedroom.

There was no light on this bedroom, it was pitch black, and only a faint moonlight shot in from the window. The moonlight was attached to a set of pink tables and chairs. Next to the table and chairs was a wardrobe close to the wall. Although it was old, Ziliang could confirm that this was a girl's bedroom.

At this moment, right in front of him was a single bed, a very beautiful girl lying quietly on the bed... She fell asleep and covered her with a cute quilt... This girl was Alice... And the sharp axe in Ziliang's hand hovered above her head. If it weren't for Freddy's holding, then the girl would have been in a different position at this moment.

Ziliang was stunned for a moment. After a few seconds, he completely escaped from this trance.

"You are... Freddy?" he asked, looking at the terrible face in front of him.

"You can call me that." Freddy replied, his voice indeed hoarse, but he had no intention of murder.

Ziliang smiled and said, "So, am I in my dream now?"

"It depends on how you understand the dream." Freddy let go: "If you refer to the town called Princewood in Alice's consciousness, then the answer is... No! You are not in the dream, on the contrary, you are really awake now."

Ziliang frowned: "What does it mean?"

"Prinwood town was burned out thirty-five years ago...then it was burned out by a fire."

As he said that, Freddy walked to the window and opened it... With the moonlight, Ziliang finally saw the scene outside. It was a desolate street. The buildings on both sides showed the remains of the burning fire. Wherever they saw, there was no light or people, only weeds and dust...

"I think... can you explain to me what kind of story this is...right."

"Okay." Freddy said: "Actually, things are very simple. Thirty-five years ago, in this bedroom, on this bed, a hypocritical mayor did something you could imagine to a little girl..."

Ziliang nodded: "Oh? So, the fabricated story is true? Do you really exist? And, you really killed the mayor and burned the house for the sake of this little girl, Alice?"

Freddy was silent for a while and shook her head: "No, you are only half right, the first half. I did witness what the mayor did, and I was in the shadow of the tree at that time." Freddy pointed to a bare trunk of carbonized trees outside the window: "I looked at the reflection in the bedroom printed on the curtains, and I knew what was going on here...but, I did nothing."

"What...what?" Ziliang was stunned for a moment.

"I know, this is not the same as what is told in the story," Freddy said, and his tone clearly revealed a decline and self-blame that had not dissipated for decades: "Reality is always more cruel than the story. The brave child did not exist at all. At that time... I was afraid. Although I knew I should rush up, as long as that, I could save the girl. Although I had a series of scenes in my mind of rushing up, I was just watching that, but my body was filled with lead... like a waste."

"......Then what?"

"Haha, then?" Freddy suddenly smiled miserably: "And everything happened. There was no heroic boy who broke through the window, no novice police officer who had passed by the brave and brave police officer. There was nothing. The reflection on the curtain continued... Fortunately, the ending in the story was still staged. The mayor died, he died at midnight. The person who killed him was Alice, and then a big fire burned like this, and it was Alice who put it on."

"Do you know why this place is called Elm Street? Because there are elm trees everywhere here. It was a summer. The trees were growing extremely lushly. Flames rushed to the streets, lit a tree, and then... it was the second, the third, and then the whole street was burning!"

Freddy said this and suddenly smiled hysterically. He opened his hands: "It was a fire that wrapped the entire town in. Everyone, except me... and her..."

Ziliang looked at Alice, then looked at Freddy: "You two?"

"Yes, Alice is not an ordinary girl. She has a kind of magic power... Of course, I didn't know this at that time, and I didn't understand why Alice stood in the sea of ​​fire without anything. I just felt that God could not bear to let this girl experience any pain anymore, so I allowed her to survive... and the reason why I survived... was because of punishment."

"After that fire, Alice couldn't stand the torture of memories. She chose to hypnotize herself and continue her life in a dream. Over the years, I have been guarding her. I have rebuilt this burned house into its original appearance, so that she can sleep here quietly..."

At this moment, Ziliang's compass finally vibrated.

He opened it, and the incomplete information finally changed a little.
