Here Lies The Wicked
Chapter 228: Four Faces of Oil Paintings
This is a silent and empty city...
It smells like rotting acid from a mouse's body in the dark.
There's always something in the door handle that closes the door.
I don't know why there's always a woman's voice in my ear.
There's always the sound of chopping bones in the kitchen.
There seemed to be a lot of kids running around in the shadow of the bedroom.
The wind creaked, half-opened, half-assed glass with a strange eight-fingered palm print.
Inside the invisible wall behind the curtains, there is always the sound of fingernails snapping.
Under some rusty folded wire beds, a wet, dripping bead of tickle drops all the time.
It's like a ceiling ceiling ceiling fan hanging a person.
In vagueness, it always felt like someone was shouting their name behind them...
It's dark here.
In the dark, this human city seems to have become a city of death and silence. It is so dark that it cannot see its fingers. Only occasionally in the shadow of the night can human misery and despair cry out.
This is only the shadow of darkness, only the silent world of fear, curse, despair, and mourning, except for the strange mourning in the night, there is nothing but silence, suddenly! The silence of the world has been disturbed by the noise of chaotic footsteps.
This is an operational unit equipped with excellent thermal weapons with a total of four personnel.
Look at their well-trained, orderly front and rear cover, their stubborn faces, and that typical western skin tone, which is obviously an elite western army sneaking into the war zone of this South-East Asian country.
But this elite battle squad, when everyone was wounded and there was still blood on their uniforms, seemed to have just gone through a battle.
“What now? We have been separated from the main forces of the evacuation for two hours since the ambush of the unidentified forces, and we have been in this damn town for two hours and we have not gone out. ”
“I don't know if you guys feel the same way I do… how I feel the colder I walk around, the colder I can't help but lift my hair. It's already dark, and according to the above, the city will be very dangerous at night. ”
“BullShit! The city is so weird, the night vision is gone, the flashlight is gone, even the city street lights, the shop lights... all the lighting equipment is gone, it can only be lighted out a few meters, as if some monster ate the light. I always have a bad feeling that the longer we stay in this city, the more dangerous we are. ”
“I think what's most urgent right now is to find a safe house to hide in the middle of the night in a strange environment. Remember what they told us? If it's lost in this city, it's not evacuated before dark, remember, don't go out before dark! I don't think the boss would say that for any reason, there must be some special warning. ”
It turned out to be a combat unit that had been sneaking into the war zone and preparing to withdraw without the permission of a sovereign State, but had accidentally been separated from the main forces. At this time, the four injured combat teams were leaning back against the marble exterior wall of a hotel and disagreed on whether to stay.
Just as the four of them were suppressing their voices and arguing could not stop, suddenly there were several bursts of gunfire under the night sky and suddenly extinguished, the four of them rushed into the nearby hotel.
In a strange night that can barely illuminate a few meters, with the dim light of a tactical flashlight, the four of them tripped and finally escaped into the luxurious hotel.
Although there are lights in the hotel lobby, it can only provide a few meters of lighting under the pressure of the night. It looks dizzy and gloomy. Four people are muscle-stricken with a long gun with a thermal weapon in their hand, and are vigilant in searching the lobby to remove the danger.
Four people were surprised to find that the hotel lobby was unusually clean.
It seems that this luxury hotel was not affected by the war and was spotlessly clean, as if it had been deliberately cleaned.
In this bizarre city, the four of us dare not to walk away, but to search together, a luxuriously decorated hotel filled with luxurious marble lobby walls and a world-renowned painting.
The fact that any famous painting is valuable on the outside and has not been stolen is in itself a bit unusual and bizarre.
With dim and unknown light, the four men found no danger in the lobby and remained tight, which kept the gun slightly low. At this time, the four of them stood in the lobby near the stairwell leading to the second floor, ready to go back in case of any unexpected situation. And the four of them, they're going to stay and continue to talk.
It was suggested to stay in the hotel, which did not see bullet holes and bodies, indicating that it was temporarily safe.
But there are also people who say that this place is really too clean, and the more out of touch with the surrounding area, the stranger this place is, the more you are advised to leave the hotel immediately.
In the dark, the four of them kept arguing in order to go or stay.
“Shh, shut up. Look at this painting on the back wall. Do you feel anything strange about this painting? ”
The other three turned to look at an oil painting hanging from the marble wall behind them.
In the dim light, it is implicit to see that the painting appears to be a house… as if, in front of the hotel. But under the twist of dark, unknown light, the more I look at it, the weirder it feels.
It's like... it's like putting together a hotel with a few faces!
This is reminiscent of a game of psychic reasoning where you look at pictures and figure out a few faces.
“One... two... like four faces? ”
“How many faces do you think? How could there be such a creepy painting in a hotel, hanging this painting, who would come to this hotel, I bet there would be no business in this hotel. ”
The more people look at it, the more frightened they are.
“Guys... do you feel like painting the four faces of the hotel, very much like the faces of the four of us? ”
“This face looks like Anderson. Look, there's a black mole on his nose. ”
“This... this looks like I... have a scar on my forehead...”
The more the voice, the more the chestnut.
“I think we need to evacuate this hotel immediately! I'd rather stay outside than spend another second in this overcleaned hotel! ”
This time there was no objection, the footsteps were messy and the hotel was ready to be evacuated.
“Go, go! Retreat! Retreat!”
However……
One minute, two minutes… Quiet, quiet in the hotel, no one ever quit.
Minutes go by... suddenly!
Shots were fired, and then there were people covered in blood, and they ran out of the hotel in horror.
However, one of his feet had just stepped out of the hotel door, and his body was immediately caught like something behind him. In a great cry, he was dragged back into the hotel...
