    "Could it be in a connected way? Try another one." Qin Ci turned to look at the newcomer behind him, "Who will come next?"

    The newcomers did not come forward. Xu Zhen looked at Mu Yiran and Ke Xun: "Since it has been confirmed that the number cards are arranged in sequential order, I don't think we need to try again. It is better to use these two numbers first. Let's see what they do."

    Ke Xun glanced at Xu Zhen and hooked his lips.

    The woman's thoughts are quite deep. Just now I suggested that the old and new members each take a number card. I am afraid that it is just to fool someone to get the number card for the experiment. Once the result is obtained, she immediately stepped back and did not participate.

    "There are only two numbers, which is not enough to be a sample to verify the law of number selection." Zhu Haowen said blankly.

    "But the reason why we have to take the number is to find a way to open this iron gate?" Xu Zhen said plausibly, "I think our primary purpose is to open the door first, and then see what's under it. "

    Zhu Haowen seemed too lazy to talk to her anymore, reaching out and pressing the number picking button.

    A-184.

    "Sure enough, they are connected." Several old members looked at each other.

    "Don't press anymore," Xu Zhen couldn't help frowning when seeing the numbers of the three old members connected together, "Why not first see how to open this door?!"

    No one paid any attention to her, Ke Xun took his number card and turned and looked for it on the iron fence door. Finally, he found an instrument similar to a punch card machine on the wall next to the door.

    "Go down and take a look?" Ke Xun turned to look at Mu Yiran.

    "Yeah." Mu Yiran nodded and turned to look at Qin Ci, "You stay here first."

    Qin Ci understood what he meant and nodded.

    Ke Xun stretched the number card in his hand into the punch card machine, and heard a "click" sound. The button in the iron fence door seemed to be opened. Ke Xun stretched out his hand and pushed it, accompanied by the "creak" of rusty iron. The fence gate opened.

    "In this case, can we enter the door without taking the card?" Xu Zhen said upon seeing this.

    "Then you want to come in?" Ke Xun looked back at her with a faint smile, and made a sign to invite in.

    Xu Zhen closed his mouth.

    Although the iron gate had been opened, indicating that anyone can enter at will, Mu Yiran still used the number card he obtained to insert it into the punching machine, and there was also a "click" sound, as if it was recognized and confirmed.

    Zhu Haowen did not speak, but punched the card in the same way. He followed Ke Xun and Mu Yiran and entered the iron gate. As soon as he entered the gate, the iron gate seemed to be blown by the wind. He closed it again with a cry.

    The three people who entered the door turned their heads in unison. Seeing that everyone outside the door looked at them with complicated expressions, Xu Zhen's eyes even seemed to be looking at the three dead men.

    Across a fence door, the two groups of people inside and outside the door suddenly seemed to be isolated in two worlds, but I don’t know which group of people is in the Yang world and which group is in the underworld. .

    The three people inside the door did not stay too much, they turned their heads uniformly, without any hesitation or retreat, calmly and resolutely walked along the narrow and cramped stairs into the endless darkness.

    The stairs were indeed very narrow. The people were as tall as Ke Xun and could only be passed by one person, so the three had to line up with Ke Xun at the head, Mu Yiran in the middle, and Zhu Haowen at the end.

    Ke Xun was shining brightly with his mobile phone, but the dim light could only be seen at a distance of less than one meter in front of him, and countless dust and microorganisms were flying under the light, like the snowflakes of an old-fashioned black-and-white TV without signal.

    This kind of visibility actually does not have any effect, but makes the darkness around the body appear more depressed and dense. The two sides of the wall seem to be constantly squeezing towards the narrow staircase in the middle. Every step forward, the front and top of the head The darkness rushed toward his face as if it were real, and a touch of Mao Cencen was felt on his body.

    The stairs at the foot are narrow and steep, and the cement cement on the steps is not smooth enough to walk. It is very difficult to walk, and every few steps the stairs have to turn, they descend spirally, so that there is always a person in front of you. Blocked by brick walls, it is suffocating and depressing.

    Such a narrow and cramped space is really uncomfortable for Ke Xun, who has long hands and long feet. If this feeling of not being able to open his legs or stretching his arms continues, it will make people feel like being caught by iron hoops. The flexion of the muscles and bones, after a while, Ke Xun felt that the muscles all over his body began to sore.

    Pushing this and the other, Ke Xun thinks that for Mu Yiran who is not shorter than him, the feeling of being in this place all the way down must not be any better than him. He was about to stop and let the three of them all slow down, but listened. Mu Yiran suddenly said in a deep voice, "Stop for a while, there are words on the wall."

    Ke Xun stopped and took a photo with Mu Yiran Zhu Haowen on the wall with their mobile phones.

    This is an old-style wall made of red bricks. Only a layer of cement was painted on the outside, not even the powder paint. Due to the age, large pieces of cement fell off, exposing the faded red bricks inside.

    In the place where the cement did not fall off, there are some dark and shallow handwritings. These handwritings are very thick, and the colors of the strokes are very dark, but there is almost no color at the end of each stroke.

    The color of the writing is difficult to distinguish in dim light, and it looks like khaki or dark brown.

    The three of them carefully identified the writing on the wall, coming from different times and different people.

    --devil! All the devil! They are all demons!

    -Let me die, let me die, let me die.

    --help me! help me!

    ——Don’t come in, don’t come in, don’t come in...

    ——Kill you! I want to kill you! Kill all! kill!

    The three of them didn't speak for a while, and finally Mu Yiran opened his mouth to break the silence: "These words are all written with fingers. As for the paint dipped in, I think it should be blood."

    Speaking and pointing to a lower position under the handwriting.

    Ke Xun and Zhu Haowen moved the light of the mobile phone there, and they saw a lot of handprints.

    These handprints are large and small, fat and thin. The small ones are only the size of a baby's palm, and the thin ones are obviously owned by an old woman with a craggy skin.

    Each handprint is soggy, as if it was printed after dipping in thick paint.

    "It feels like entering a prison camp." Zhu Haowen said quietly. "The wall is full of pain and resentment."

    "I want to know how this kind of baby's handprints are left." Ke Xun stared at the bloody handprints below with a blank face.

    "We can continue." Mu Yiran said calmly, "Hurry up."

    Ke Xun continued to lead, and accelerated the speed of descending the steps. He descended so quickly. After walking for half an hour, the soles of his feet finally fell on a flat ground.

    Maybe it’s because all the people are walking along the narrow staircase. The oxygen supply in the air is not enough. All three of them have tinnitus after landing, accompanied by a faint headache. Zhu Haowen’s condition is worse and his physical condition is not as good as Ke Xun and Ke Xun. Mu Yiran, walking down this long section of steep stairs, his legs are already weak, and he can't help but breathe heavily.

    "Hao Wener, your body is not good," Ke Xun patted him on the back, "Why don't you just wait here, Yiran and I will look forward."

    Zhu Haowen raised his head and looked forward with the light of his mobile phone.

    Here is another long and narrow corridor. On both sides of the corridor, there are also rooms with opposite doors. On the door of the room, the words "Project A Experimental Area" and "Project B Experimental Area" are marked in print.

    "You go to check the room, I am staring at the corridor here, I will call out if there is a problem, don't dare when you hear, come out immediately." Zhu Haowen calmly said.

    "If you have any questions, just shout and run up, don't wait for us." Ke Xun added.

    "Yes." Zhu Haowen glanced at him, "I am not you, I cherish my life."

    Ke Xun laughed, winked at him, and walked along the corridor with Mu Yiran holding his phone.

    There was also a punch card machine outside the door of the experiment area. Ke Xun inserted his number card in without any movement for a long time. He took it out and re-inserted it in a different face. There was still no movement. He tried to push the door, but it didn't move.

    "What's the situation?" Ke Xun looked at Mu Yiran.

    Mu Yiran looked at the sign on the door and pointed his chin to the side door: "This is the experimental area of ​​Project B, try the door of the experimental area of ​​Project A."

    Ke Xun went over, inserted the number card, and heard a "click".

    Zhu Haowen stood at the stairway to calm his breath, looking at Ke Xun in the corridor surrounded by dim light. In such a thick darkness, this man’s face was strangely clear. He had thin eyelids, thick The eyelashes cast a crescent-shaped shadow on the wall beside him.

    The vast majority of people can't hold back light from below their faces. The shadows caused by the uneven contours of the face make the whole face look like a ghost mask.

    But this person is not.

    The light from the phone shines up from below, flowing smoothly across his cheeks, only drawing smooth shadows on the lips, nose and eyes.

    It makes him look a bit...like a husky.

    Zhu Haowen clicked on the V letter on the phone. Although there is no signal and traffic, it should be possible to change the V letter remark.

    After changing the "Corgi" in my friend to "Husky", Zhu Haowen spontaneously clicked on the camera app.

    Ke Xun and Mu Yiran in the camera screen are opening the door of the test area of ​​Project A and stepping in. At the bottom, a gray baby arm stretched out from the door and grabbed Ke Xun's trouser legs.

    Ke Xun and Mu Yiran did not stay long in the test area of ​​Project A. When they walked out, Zhu Haowen was holding his mobile phone on the wall looking for clues.

    "What did you find?" Zhu Haowen asked.

    "A weird room," Ke Xun motioned and said as they walked, the three of them walked up the stairs. "It looks like a baby room with a few cribs in it, and the storage cabinets are filled with baby products, but The strange thing is that there are some small cages besides these things in the room."

    "For babies?" Zhu Haowen asked.

    "No," Ke Xun shook his head. "The cage is very small. It can only hold hamsters, and the largest can hold a rabbit. In addition, there are tools such as whistle, awl and hammer. All these things are put together, quite Violation."

    "Indeed," Zhu Haowen thought, "small cages, tools, and baby supplies. These three things are in the same room, which is very messy. But since the room is called the A project experimental area, what can be done with these things? "

    "I can't think of it at all," Ke Xun said, "If it weren't because I didn't find tools such as swords and axes, I would have even thought of the dismemberment of the baby, and there was no blood in that room."

    "I think," Mu Yiran said suddenly, "If you want to know the connection between these things and the content of the cracking experiment, you can only get further clues by opening all the rooms in the experiment area."

    Ke Xun looked up at the top.

    This means that the remaining people must also get number cards, go down to the experimental area, and open the corresponding door.

    What's terrible is that the number cards are issued in the sequence of consecutive serial numbers, that is to say, only after the number cards of the experimental area of ​​the A project are issued, the number cards of the experimental area of ​​the B project will be developed.

    So don't expect to issue the number cards out of order, which happened to be issued to all the experimental areas in the hands of the first few people, so that the people behind will not be allowed to enter the door with numbers.

    If you want to get all the clues, you must be able to enter all the rooms in the experimental area. If you want to enter the room, you must get the number cards of all the rooms.

    Ke Xun felt that if he had expected it to be good, "drawing" in order to ensure that everyone had to take a number card, the entrance number card of the last experimental area would inevitably only appear in the hands of the last person who took the number card.

    In other words, the last person to get the number card can only work alone.
