Judgment Day [Unlimited]

【loading.The primary mission "Wangchuan Apartment" is about to start——]

[Today is March 202, 3x. The young detective Xie Xingyin received an invitation from Wangchuan Detective Agency to investigate the human-mask dog incident...]

The darkness in front of him receded like a tide.When Xie Xingyin opened his eyes again, he found himself standing on a strange street.

On his left, a dilapidated bus stop sign with crooked lines.

"Wangchuan Road Station".

All the shops facing the street were closed, and the red-backed black-letter lanterns hung on the outer wall were swayed by the north wind, creating an unusually mysterious atmosphere.

There were very few pedestrians on the street at the moment, except for a tall young man walking alone on the sidewalk.

At the end of the street as far as the eyes can see is the darkness that swallows everything, thick and terrifying.

The parts at both ends of the street seem to have been blurred, deliberately erasing the rest, and only cutting out a section.

At this moment, no living person could be seen on the street, and the north wind was blowing gloomyly.

Xie Xingyin tightened his collar.

A detective certificate was hung around his neck out of thin air, with his name, age, ID photo and other information on it.

Xie Xingyin put the detective certificate in his pocket and put it away.When he looked up towards the end of the road, a small moving black dot in the distance suddenly bumped into his field of vision.

——The black spot gradually enlarged from far to near. It turned out to be a person running in a hurry. His figure seemed to be the boy he had seen under the tower.

Xie Xingyin hurriedly went up to meet him.

Walked forward for about 300 meters, but the oncoming person didn't seem to notice him, and went straight into a dark door on the side of the road, and disappeared.

Xie Xingyin slowed down and stopped at the place where the man disappeared.

He looked up at the dusty house number.

No. 11, Wangchuan Road, the hint given by the ticket is here.

Surrounded by grocery stores, there is a sign on the facade of No. 11 Wangchuan Road, with the words "Wangchuan Detective Agency" written in large characters.

The door of the office was ajar and was still shaking slightly, indicating that the person had just entered.

From the outside, the office looked like an unremarkable two-story building.

Xie Xingyin's eyes darkened slightly, he stepped on the steps in front of the door, and pulled the doorknob.

While opening the door, Xie Xingyin was surprised in his heart.

The interior of this unremarkable detective agency hall is unusually open, and it is many times larger than it looks from the outside, with a strange sense of space folding.

Many people gathered in the hall on the first floor, either standing or sitting.

When Xie Xingyin pushed the door and went in, those people looked back at him one after another, didn't care much, and continued talking to themselves.

"...Wangchuan Road, what the hell name!" A girl who looked like a high school student crossed her arms and complained to her two partners, "Is this Wangchuan River or Huangquan Road?"

"Bah, bah, don't talk nonsense." Her companion was terrified.

Xie Xingyin closed the door behind his back, looked around the hall, and noticed that a dozen people had already gathered in the hall.

Xie Xingyin knew that these were players who climbed the tower.Among them, there seemed to be many novices like him, who behaved a bit out of control.

Sure enough, the black-haired boy he had met while queuing was already sitting on the couch, silent, still playing with the Rubik's Cube.

It seems to be right.Xie Xingyin heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to walk over to talk to the child, but the corner of his clothes was suddenly caught.

Turning around, a magnified face appeared in front of him.

Xie Xingyin subconsciously tilted his head back, only to realize that it was a young girl who was holding him back.

The girl was flustered, and when she saw him, she hugged Xie Xingyin's arm as if she saw a life-saving straw.

"Handsome guy, do you know what's going on! This is the world of the tower? This is too... too scary!"

The girl's voice was crying, as if she was a little broken.

Everyone in the hall was in anxiety, and no one would have the patience to comfort her.Seeing Xie Xingyin push the door and come in, she seemed convinced that this little brother was the most good person, and hugged his arm as soon as he came up and didn't let go.

Xie Xingyin didn't know where she came from, but seeing that she was about to cry, he was too embarrassed to push her away.

"Sorry, I'm also a novice."

Xie Xingyin was telling the truth, while he was speaking, he pulled out his hand calmly.

"...I, my name is Li Wei, and this is the first time I have entered the tower."

Li Wei seemed to have made up her mind to cling to him. "Brother, what's your name?"

Xie Xingyin was helpless: "...Xie Xingyin."

"Then, Brother Xie, is it really your first time climbing the tower?" Li Wei was still cautiously testing him.

She seemed to not believe Xie Xingyin's words, because compared to the others, Xie Xingyin was a little too calm.

"En." Xie Xingyin was indeed a novice.

Li Wei seemed a little frustrated, walked to the couch and sat down, and poured herself a glass of lemonade. "How the hell can I get out? I don't like this place at all."

Seeing the tears in the girl's eyes as if she was about to cry, Xie Xingyin pulled out a tissue and handed it to her in a gentlemanly manner. "You can go out after completing the task."

"Thank you." Li Wei woke up fiercely with a runny nose, the tip of her nose was red.

"...Why haven't you started yet?" The bald brother wearing a gold necklace yawned and couldn't help but look at the time, "I've been waiting for half an hour, right?"

"Wait a minute, there are still people who haven't arrived yet." Said an elite man in a suit and a metal frame.

Two minutes later, a middle-aged man and woman hurried in through the door. "Excuse me, is this-"

Before they could finish speaking, the door slammed shut.

"It's all here now." The elite man looked at the blank expressions around him and smiled, "It seems that there are quite a few novices in this dungeon."

The hall on the first floor fell into a brief silence.Xie Xingyin's gaze quickly swept around the room, wondering what would happen next.

After a short wait, a wooden door in the inner corner suddenly moved, making a teeth-piercing "squeak" sound.

"coming."

Immediately everyone's expressions became alert.

With a breathless rubbing sound, the wooden door was pushed open forcefully.The dust accumulated over the years flew all over the ground with a loud "bang".

Everyone followed the sound and saw that the wooden door in the corner was slowly pushed open, revealing a pair of eyes in the crack of the door——

A pair of cloudy gray eyes, like a zombie just dug out of the ground.

"Is everyone here?"

The pair of gray eyeballs turned slightly, its owner took a step forward, and the face that was originally hidden in the darkness was exposed under the light.

"If all are here, the mission will begin."

It was an old face, like withered and peeling birch bark.

Xie Xingyin noticed that the big brother Jinlian took a step back, while the black-haired boy focused on disrupting and reassembling the Rubik's cube without even raising his head.

Just now, Xie Xingyin saw the man's eyes only reaching the doorknob through the crack of the door. Xie Xingyin thought he was very short, but when the door was fully opened, he realized that it was an old man sitting in a wheelchair.

The old man was wearing a wide-brimmed hat, his two thin legs were drooping weakly, and his whole body was filled with the decadent breath of dying.

With a pipe in one hand, he manipulated the wheelchair with the other to come among them. The others subconsciously took a few steps back to make room for a semi-fan-shaped space, trying to stay as far away from this strange guy as possible.

But the old man didn't look at them, his eyes were fixed on the direction of the door, and he muttered: "One, two, three..."

He didn't read slowly, but the tone made people breathless like drowning.

"... Eleven, twelve, thirteen..."

"Okay." The old man coughed, raised his eyelids and looked at Xie Xingyin with strange eyes with gray pupils.

"It's all here, let's start looking at the case information."

Xie Xingyin looked at him calmly, and noticed that the nameplate of "Wangchuan Detective Agency" was hanging on the old man's chest, probably the old detective working here.

Just when he wanted to take a closer look, the old detective suddenly twisted the wheelchair, and pressed some button on the back of the chair with his old hand.

In an instant, the lights in the hall dimmed, and the wall behind everyone suddenly lit up, and the snow-white wall projected a picture like a curtain.

—

A news video was shown on the screen, the announcer opened and closed his mouth mechanically, and the broadcast sound with "rustling" noise came from the old black stereo on the ground.

This is the case the old man said.

"On April 4, Keiko, a reporter who lives in Wangchuan Apartment, published an article in Wangchuan Daily, claiming that she witnessed a dog with a human face near the apartment..."

"Since the publication of the suspected April Fool's Day joke, more and more residents of Wangchuan Apartment have claimed to have witnessed a dog with a human face, causing quite a stir..."

"Miss Huizi couldn't bear the pressure, and she personally admitted that the news was fabricated by her, and the absurd rumors were self-defeating..."

"However, the strange thing is that other witnesses still insist that they saw the human-faced dog, and there are new witnesses appearing continuously..."

"Rumours gradually fermented, and the people living on Wangchuan Road even organized a parade to appeal to all sectors of society to pay attention. Do human-faced dogs really exist?"

"On April 4, the reporter, Ms. Huizi, was found to have left a suicide note and tried to commit suicide at home. The blood stained the floor and seeped through the door, and she was discovered by neighbors..."

The announcer read the contents of the manuscript blankly, and when the last word was finished, the news screen behind him stayed on the bloody scene and stopped abruptly.

The audience was dumbfounded.

Everyone looked at the screen in silence, Xie Xingyin heard someone behind him take a breath.

"What... what do you mean?"

Li Wei's face beside her was not very good-looking, and her voice was trembling with fear.She looked up at Xie Xingyin helplessly.

"This reporter, she made up a fake news to gain attention, and then it came true?"

The author has something to say: a story full of desire to survive: the protagonist Gong Shou has no blood relationship and does not practice orthopedics.The little boy is not really underage, he is a dog man pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger to deceive the innocent boy Xiaoxie~
