[Comprehensive Yingmei] Really nothing happened

Spotting is always a good habit.

Ye Mengjiad checked some information and found that the water storage tower in Derry Town had the most bizarre deaths.Once the water storage tower was open and anyone could go up.However, it was completely sealed off after a series of accidents.More dangerous places such as the top of the tower and the water storage tank are not open.

Of course, it's useless.Looking at the concealed door of the water storage tower and the traces blasted by gunpowder, Yemengar had to think.

She looked at the dust on the ground.There were fresh footprints that went in but none came out, and it seemed that there were still people inside.

The footprints are messy, but clearly belong to adults.

It looks like there are... seven or eight people?

Coming to such a place at such a time...it can't be some criminal gang, otherwise there would be so many people, none of them would have thought of cleaning up the traces on the ground.Who would that be?

Yemengard suddenly remembered the ugly young man (William Dunblow) sitting on the bus when he arrived in Derry.In the past few days, she has seen him appearing on the street with several other people of similar age, behaving strangely - from the perspective of other people.

It seems that there are... seven people? !

Her intuition—it wasn't the word in the Old One's terms, but it meant something—was pretty accurate, and since it was who it was, it must have been.It must be those people who are on the water storage tower.

Ye Mengjia had to think about the clothes of those people. Although they were not very expensive, their living conditions were very good, so it was hard to say why they came to such a place—it was definitely not for money anyway.

What would that be?

The door hinge is covered with rust, if it is pushed open with force, it will definitely make a lot of noise, alarming the people inside.But this kind of small problem did not bother Jormungandr, and she quickly went in without a sound—of course, without leaving any traces.

No matter whether there is anyone inside, she always wants to go in and have a look.

……

The stairs of the water storage tower are also obviously in a state of disrepair, and there will be creaking noises if you walk up hastily.However, while easy to overlook, these are small problems that are easy to fix once you think about it.

A voice came from the top of the water storage tower—it should be those people.They seemed to be discussing something seriously, although there was an echo, they could still hear the general idea.

"We must go!" Beverly Marsh said firmly, "We swore that we would never let 'it' cause tragedy again!"

The others seemed concerned.That's right, they have grown up, and there are many things to consider. It is no longer possible for them to have the courage to move forward like they did when they were teenagers.

"I, I'm a little bit, scared," said William Dunblow.His stuttering used to get better for a while, but it recently recurred.

Others seem to be doing the same.Today, they have lost their most powerful weapon|weapon, and they have been severely hit by the "it" that has come back again. This time, they have the idea of ​​retreating in their hearts.

Strange to say, there are so many men here, but the girl is the most courageous.

But that doesn't mean others aren't brave.

Jormungandr listened for a while in a corner out of their sight.

Their friendship is beyond imagination.Soon a few people confessed the vision they saw after returning to Derry, and this confession also made them courageous again.

After making a decision, several people left quickly, without noticing that there was an unexpected guest in the water storage tower.

Ye Mengjiad walked around inside a few times, and left after getting the information he wanted.

……

The town of Derry has never seen weather like this.

It is now the end of the nineteenth century. Although humans have destroyed part of the natural environment, the damage has not been serious enough to cause drastic changes to the climate in some areas.At that time, there was no precedent for such a thing.

So on this day, the guests of the hotel (in fact, there were not many) sat in the lobby on the first floor, watching the sudden heavy wind and rain outside the window, and their mood became very unhappy.

Ye Mengjiad lowered her face, and no one could see the expression on her face at the moment.She knows better than anyone else that this kind of weather shouldn't exist.

But it happened, that is to say...

……

Shadow looked very pale.

I don't know if it was his illusion, but there is definitely something wrong with the origin of this storm.

Usually, after it rains, no, after it has been raining for a while, it is noticeable that the air is fresher.But this rain...in the rain, there is always a strange smell mixed in.I can't tell exactly what it smells like, but it's pretty bad anyway.

Wednesday...he looked okay, neither nervous nor confused, he was leisurely crossing his legs and reading the newspaper.

"Uh...boss." Shadow thought for a while, and then tentatively called out.

"What's the matter, Shadow?" Wednesday replied in a somewhat absent-minded tone.

"Don't you think... this rain is a bit weird?" Shadow turned his head and glanced at the dim sky outside the window.

"Aha, Shadow." Putting down the newspaper on Wednesday, Shadow saw one of the reports headlined "The long-destroyed second in command of the Round Hat Gang is still missing?!" He said in a nonchalant tone: " If you live a few decades longer, it won't be so weird. This kind of thing, if you go around a lot, you will know that it will always happen."

Shadow didn't quite believe it.He can be considered well-informed. It's not like he hasn't heard of this kind of normal weather, but...he intuitively thinks that it's completely different.

Haha, a big man said intuition?Sounds really silly.

At this point, a young woman passed them, and Wednesday turned and whistled at her, without continuing to speak to Shadow about the issue.

She didn't look like the hotel, no, the whole town of Derry.

She is about thirty, petite, with long smooth light-colored hair, a confident look on her face, a pair of blue-green eyes that always seem to have a soft and optimistic expression, soft facial features, and elegant temperament.Overall, a very attractive woman.

Men can't help but stare at beautiful women, whether they're married or not.No, don't think about it in a more dirty way, after all, everyone has a desire for beauty.

The same goes for shadows.He dares to swear with everything he has, that he loves Laura unswervingly, even if she is dead, even if she...

He missed her, very much.Looking at the woman walking past, Shadow thought.

He remembered the moonlit night when the dead Laura had appeared beside him and given him a coin.

Are you scared?No, not at all.Shadow thought, he was glad to see her again.

He spent so many years in prison, and just a few days before he was released, Laura died.He didn't even see her for the last time.

So, seeing her again, he just felt happy.

……

That woman is pretty normal.Shadow thought when he saw the other party passing by.During this period of time, his three views have been greatly impacted, and it must be said that his vision has also broadened a lot.From that point of view, there was absolutely nothing unpleasant about her.

However, there is still a bit of a strange sense of incongruity...

After hearing Wednesday's whistle, the woman looked back at them, her expression unchanged.

……

The storm came suddenly and went strangely, really like a dream.

Yemengard raised his head to look at the suddenly bright sky, stood up from his chair, and returned to his room.

Her preparations are almost done, and now it's time to go.

……

"Let's go." Wednesday shook the newspaper and stood up.

Shadow was stunned for a second, but still obeyed the other party's instructions, and followed him out of the hotel door.

This is the first instruction given by Wednesday in a few days, before which he seemed to be doing nothing.It seems that you haven't waited for the right time?Now, what made him think he had waited?How did he know about it?

These thoughts passed through Shadow's mind, and soon lost their traces.

……

"..." Shadow watched Wednesday with a blank expression as he pried open the manhole cover of a sewer, and then climbed down.

It shouldn't be like this.A voice that obviously didn't belong to him whispered in the back of his head.

don't go in.don't go in.don't want……

Shadow followed Wednesday into the sewer.

He drank the mead given on Wednesday, so he had to obey the other party's orders.

He will never break his promise.

……

Shadow once had a dream of a path and an old altar.

The color of the altar seems to be white, but it gradually turns yellow due to the wind and rain, and the same is true for the railings on both sides of the road.

However, it stands to reason that the degree of yellowing of every part of the altar and railings should be about the same, but at a glance, it can be found that they are actually uneven.

If you look closely, you will find that the materials of the altar and the railings are all human bones, hundreds of thousands of human bones.

Whose bone is it?Shadow thought.

Yes……

Yes……

Then he woke up.

……

Shadow knew the sewers were dirty, but he had never imagined that the sewers in Derry could be such a horrible place.

The bones of teenagers were everywhere, maintaining the twisted posture before dying. The air was filled with an indescribable disgusting smell, which almost made him spit it out.

Wednesday didn't seem to be uncomfortable. Although he stepped into the strangely colored sewage, he didn't show a mysterious and bored expression.He turned his head to look around, then walked in a certain direction.

Shadow followed.
