Put aside all the weird incidents.

Just the fact that on the way to Innsmouth State, I met Darlene, the female editor described by investigator Sam, was terrifying enough.

Because, in Sam's description, the female editor finally turned into a spider-man whose joints all over the body "clicked" and whose head turned over to speak.

in addition.

Darlene had been missing for ten months, but now she appeared two thousand kilometers away in the inhospitable Ice Phoenix State, wearing a light nightgown.

Therefore, anyone with any sense knows that she is not normal.

Lu Li was willing to give her a ride out of helplessness. After all, the current situation was like encountering an unsolvable ring game. The only way to do this was to cut off all obstacles with a knife.

However, this did not prevent Lu Li from conducting experiments.

He had to know why Kane sent a woman with many flaws to stop him in the middle of the night.

"Sam Neill?"

"That uneducated economic investigator!"

At this moment, Darlene's reaction was beyond Lu Li's expectation. After hearing that name, her face was full of contempt and she said angrily: "This is the guy who abandoned me."

"What is your relationship with him?"

As she spoke, the female editor shrank to the side, which made Rorschach, who was sitting under her, very embarrassed. At the same time, her heart was in her throat.

To be honest, Rorschach didn't know Sam Neill, but he had seen with his own eyes how weird this woman was.

On the side, Lu Li nodded thoughtfully and patiently explained: "Not long ago, I met him at a gas station. It was the first and last time we met. We just had a casual chat while waiting."

After finishing speaking, he raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Cloverfield Mental Hospital.

This argument was obviously not trusted. Darlene's vigilance did not diminish at all, and she asked: "So, what exactly is the acrobatics you just mentioned?"

The expression is natural and the reaction is normal.

From a professional point of view, even the Oscar-winning best actress can't perform this kind of feeling.

Therefore, Lu Li became more and more sure that his guess was correct:

He came to Kane's novel.

The horror novelist created a brand new Darlene, and then arranged an encounter between her and himself. It was like fate, and there was no way to escape or avoid it.

Thinking about it this way, all the strange things that we encountered before can be explained.

law?

destiny?

In fact, Lu Li didn't know what to call this ability, but the soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth.

If the other party is truly an unsolvable existence, then what is the point of the principal organizing this new round of selection examinations?

It is inconsistent with the original intention!

Thinking of this, Lu Li became calmer. He lit a cigarette and began to comfort the frightened female editor, analyzing:

"If we are the same party as Sam, why should we take you on the road with us? Wouldn't it be better to just leave it alone? If such a cold day passes overnight, you will definitely freeze to death on the roadside."

At this moment, Rorschach, whose sense of existence had been reduced to the lowest level, hesitated to speak. In his opinion, none of these words were true.

When Lu Li bumped into him at a speed of 180 miles per hour, and when he slashed him down with his long sword without hesitation, his decisive gesture was still vivid in his mind!

Calling this female devil to get in the car was completely out of helplessness.

Of course, the female demon didn't know what her current image was between the two of them. She felt that Lu Li was right, so she thanked him softly, and then huddled in the corner and remained silent.

"Why don't you tell me about your experience? I'm very curious about what this bastard Sam has done."

Lu Li was looking for something to say in order to find more useful clues——

Perhaps, we need to put it another way, what kind of character and role has Kane, the spokesman of the evil god, arranged for the important female character Darlene.

Under the gaze of the two people, the female editor hesitated briefly and narrated in a low voice:

"Today during the day, Sam suddenly came to me and said that he had found the town [Hobbes' End] written by Kane..."

daytime?

Lu Li was surprised, but he did not interrupt Darlene. He drove the car and paid attention to what the other party was saying.

"Actually, before Sam abandoned me, I always thought he was an arrogant but wise man. This guy only spent one night to solve the puzzle left behind by Kane."

“When Kane designed the cover himself, he used

A large number of red circles, cut them one by one and piece them together to get a map."

Lu Li nodded noncommittally and motioned for Darlene to continue.

No one noticed that Rorschach's expression became a little ugly again, and he kept his words in his heart and did not dare to say:

You were in Innsmouth State during the day, but now you appear in the Ice Phoenix State, the northernmost part of the Federation. Did you come by helicopter?

At this moment, Darlene was immersed in memories, her eyes a little dazed: "According to the prompt, we embarked on a boring journey together."

"On the way there, except for the highway, there was the wilderness. I couldn't help but fall asleep, until this guy Sam blew a horn above my head and played this clumsy prank. Then he said he was lost."

"So, you don't know if that town really exists?" Lu Li interrupted briefly.

Darlene didn't pay attention and looked like an idiot: "No, of course it doesn't exist."

"How can a novel become reality? No matter how magical Kane's writing style is, it can only slightly affect those readers who are not calm."

An unexpected answer.

From this point of view, Kane has indeed created a new character, a Darlene who is not at all related to the image in Mad Sam's mouth.

"Okay, you continue."

"Continue with what?"

The female editor took a deep breath, stabilized her mentality, and said word by word: "After I had a dispute with him, this guy abandoned me and went on the road alone."

Two logical flaws.

First, Sam was busy decorating the ward during the day, painting four walls and an entire floor with black crosses. It would take at least ten days. There would be no time to drive or play pranks.

Second, there is a problem with the distance, which cannot withstand any scrutiny. What kind of car can achieve such speed? It would be almost the same if it were replaced by a maglev train.

Does the so-called master of horror novels only have this ability?

Lu Li shook his head. He had never read Kane's novel, and he didn't want to read it. He only relied on his personal experience and imagination to make connections.

If Darlene didn't lie and Sam didn't lie either, how to explain this situation.

In addition, Kane's horror novel may be related to the evil god.

No one lies... Weird abilities...

Subconsciously, Lu Li looked out the window:

The scenery changes drastically!

The wilderness of the Ice Phoenix State was covered with snow, and in front of us, it was all green, which did not conform to the laws of the seasons.

This was ten months ago?!

On the way to the weird town!
Chapter completed!
