Chapter 554

The system sent Bai Liu the first task, but Bai Liu's focus was not on the task. He looked at the words [avoid being hatched] and fell into deep thought.

……incubation?

Tsk, can those wax figures hatch them?

Bai Liu silently remembered that as soon as he turned around, he saw a wax figure of a mermaid standing on the opposite side of the bed.

This is what Bai Liu saw, the largest mermaid wax figure in the house.

This mermaid wax figure is beautiful, holding a bright and clean mirror with a height of one person in its hand. The frame of the mirror is also embedded in wax, and the beautiful hands of the mermaid wax figure are the brackets supporting the dressing mirror.

This is also the only mermaid wax figure in the whole room that does not look at Bai Liu.

It looked at the mirror with a smile on its face, and the white willow was reflected in the mirror. It embraced the mirror with both hands, just like embracing the white willow in this mirror, which made Bai Liu a little uncomfortable.

The eyes of the mermaid wax figure fell on the mirror, the brows were retracted, the corners of the eyes were drooping, and the tail of the fish was flattened on the ground weakly, with a realistic and cheerful expression, as if welcoming the arrival of the person in the mirror.

Bai Liu looked at the mirror, and the [self] inside showed a sinister smile like a wax figure to Bai Liu outside the mirror.

Unmoved, Bai Liu covered the mirror with a white cloth.

This level of horror scenes is not effective for Bai Liu. He is playing horror games in the real world. He often stays up until two or three o'clock alone to conceive various horror scenes. This is the routine of people in the mirror smiling at you In the horror scene, Bai Liu was already almost numb, and she wouldn't feel anything.

It seems that the tourists who Jeff said before disappeared without a sound in the hotel without finding their bodies were probably hatched by these mermaid wax figures.

Although Bai Liu still doesn't understand what "Hatching" is about, it won't be a good thing anyway.

In order to be conservative, Bai Liu covered all the mermaid wax figures with white sheets in the hotel room, including the huge mirror, to block the weird and ubiquitous sight. Not necessarily useful, but better than nothing.

The most important thing is that so many merman wax figures look at Bai Liu, even Bai Liu can't fall asleep.

When he was covering the mirror, he touched the fish tail of the mermaid wax figure. The touch of the fish tail was not smooth and smooth white wax, but sticky and slippery like sea fish.

Bai Liu even felt the scales on the tail of the wax figure under his hand slightly open and close.

Bai Liu paused. After touching the wax figure, he smelled his fingers, and he smelled a strong fishy smell, but when Bai Liu got close to the mermaid wax figure and sniffed it, he didn't smell any fishy smell, only the smell of the hotel. Incense for inner rooms.

Might be the smell from the car...

...It is more likely that Bai Liu himself exudes that fishy smell. Thinking that the mermaid wax figure can [hatch] tourists, Bai Liu frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable.

What can a mermaid wax figure hatch?

Mostly some disgusting looking fish or something.

The word "hatch" reminded Bai Liu of a movie called "The Mermaid of the Sewer". He had watched it two or three times for material, and since then he has never had any charming fantasies about creatures like mermaids.

After driving the car in the middle of the night, Bai Liu was already tired, he washed himself briefly, then lay down on the bed and fell asleep deeply. His stamina has been cleared to zero, and he urgently needs to sleep to replenish his stamina when it is relatively safe.

In the middle of the night, Bai Liu was awakened by a strange, dull dragging sound.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw that part of the white cloth that covered the wax figures of mermaids slipped off at some point, and only part was left hanging on the wax figures.

Some of these wax figures were covered by a white cloth so that only one eye was exposed, and their expressions seemed to have changed slightly, from divine compassion to resentment and resentment. They looked at Bai Liu motionlessly, as if blaming Bai Liu for covering them with white cloth .

Bai Liu found that these wax figures seemed to be closer than before he went to bed, like a group of people who were going to gather at the dining table and slowly gathered beside his bed with their hands raised.

Especially the full-length mirror mermaid wax figure holding a huge mirror. When Bai Liu woke up in a daze, she saw that her feet were almost stuck to the mirror.

The huge mirror facing the bed has been moved to stick to the bed.

As soon as Bai Liu shrank her feet and sat up, she saw herself reflected in the mirror.

[White Liu] in the mirror has pale skin like a rock, and there are no black eyeballs in his eyes. Around his eyes are marble spider web-like patterns. [He] smiled stiffly at the corners of his mouth to Bai Liu outside the mirror, but with a blink of an eye , turned into a normal mirror image again, as if it was just Bai Liu's illusion.

Bai Liu was silent, stood up from the bed, tied up the wax figures of mermaids with a white cloth without changing expression or beating heartbeat.

In order to prevent these mermaid wax figures from breaking free, Bai Liu tied them tightly with hemp rope twice, then wrapped the smaller mermaid wax figures in a white cloth, threw them into the closet and locked them, and pushed the large wax figures into the bathroom , lock it, and the movement is as quick as a skilled kidnapper.

These things seem to be subject to certain movement restrictions. Before Bai Liu falls asleep, these things cannot move, and it seems that even after Bai Liu falls asleep, they need to break free from the white cloth and see Bai Liu to move towards him.

Some wax figures of the little mermaids covered by the white cloth were running around in the white cloth, and instead of gathering towards the bed, they scattered and fled.

After figuring out this rule, Bai Liu decisively increased the limit to the maximum.

Just when he finished all this and clapped his hands to go to sleep, Bai Liu heard the sound of a door opening and closing and the sound of tiptoe footsteps coming from the next door to him.

Bai Liu couldn't help but pause when he lay down on the bed. The four rooms he booked were all adjoining, and Andre and Jeff lived in the rooms next to each other on the left and right.

The sound of the door opening and closing is coming from the left, which is Jeff's room. Bai Liu got up from the bed, stuck to the door and looked at the corridor through the peephole.

I saw Jeff was standing in the corridor, he looked left and right, and after confirming that there was no one in the corridor, he sneaked down the stairs of the hotel.

Bai Liu frowned, what did Jeff stay up in the middle of the night?

Just as he was about to open the door and follow to have a look, he saw the doorknob of the room that Jeff had closed started turning slowly again, as if someone else was about to follow Jeff out of his room.

Hotel rooms are for one person.

He was the only one in Jeff's room. It was impossible for Lucy to go to Jeff's room in the middle of the night. Andre had a bad relationship with Jeff. It was impossible to go to Jeff in the middle of the night. Bai Liu was in her own room .

So who is this person coming out of Jeff's room?

Bai Liu's heart skipped a beat, he suddenly realized something, and moved his face away from the cat's eyes slightly.

No one came out of Jeff's room!

Jeff's doorknob turned until it clicked, and finally slowly opened it from the inside. Bai Liu heard the dull tugging sound he heard in the half-dream and half-awake again, as if something was kneeling It's like walking on the ground being dragged by someone.

But Bai Liu knew how the sound came out this time.

A tall mermaid wax figure came out of Jeff's room. Its face was frozen, expressionless, lifeless because it had no eyeballs and all white eyes, but its tail was on the ground. He dragged along the empty corridor in the middle of the night.

Its snow-white fish tail dragged on the strong and old red carpet of the hotel, leaving a greasy wax trace on the carpet, and the whole body kept moving towards the stairs, reminding Bai Liu of the kind of zombies that can only do nothing. A stiff ghost that moves forward by bouncing.

...This thing can run out of the room by itself and open the door...

When the wax figure of the mermaid dragged "walking" out of Jeff's room and walked to the stairs, it seemed to have noticed something. The head on its shoulder suddenly turned 180 degrees stiffly, and turned directly to the back .

The candle on its face is slowly melting, revealing a light feeling similar to meat.

Afterwards, it changed its direction and walked towards Bai Liu's room expressionlessly.

After Bai Liu made sure that the door was locked, he took two steps back and pressed his back against the door to hold his breath. He wanted to know what this thing was trying to do.

Bai Liu quickly saw out of the corner of his eye that the cat's eyes on the door had turned white and were still turning.

This thing is coming up to watch the people in the door with its eyes, and the thing that keeps turning is the white eyeball of the wax figure.

This thing is looking through the cat's eyes to find the people in the room.

The eyes of this mermaid wax figure can actually see the people inside through the one-way peephole.

The white eyeballs on the cat's eyes were still spinning, Bai Liu slowly moved aside while holding her breath, stretched out her feet to hook the white cloth on the ground, and was about to use the white cloth to cover herself.

This horrifying picture was projected onto the screen of the small TV, and the people waiting in front of Bailiu's small TV stared with bated breath, almost biting their hands nervously.

"Fuck, fuck, it's scary, if I lose my mental value in the game..."

"Hold on! Hold on! The death rate for newcomers in this place is extremely high!"

"The monsters in Siren Town are really disgusting. It's hard for newcomers to stay calm and find out the weakness of this thing..."

The novice players on the screen around Bailiu almost reached the place where the mermaid wax figure blocked the door. Some players played faster, and the mermaid wax figure outside the door was banging on the door.

One of the players was whining and curled up by the vibrating door with his ears folded, holding a wooden stick tremblingly in his hand, as if preparing to attack.

When the wax figure of the mermaid hit the door, he cried and screamed loudly, but no one came to save him. After the door of the player's room shook twice, it stopped, and the wax figure of the mermaid outside seemed to have left.

The crying player wiped away his tears, heaved a sigh of relief like the rest of his life, and stood up limply holding the door.

But what he didn't realize was that the cat's eye on the door was still white, and a pure white stone eye was quietly staring at the people in the house through the cat's eye.

The merman didn't leave at all, it just pretended to.

Seeing the player stand up, a strange and stiff smile appeared on the face of the wax figure, as if it had found its own prey and smiled contentedly.

The door was slammed twice more, and it was easily broken open. The players who hadn't reacted screamed and were crushed under the door.

The wax figure of the mermaid entered the room dragging its fish tail. The smile on its face was strangely pure and strangely ferocious. It opened its hands and slowly reached out to the player who was pressed under the door.

The moment the mermaid wax figure touched the player, the player seemed to be covered by something, his eyes rolled upwards, his limbs curled up slowly, and his legs/legs were twitching/twitching on the ground, like a crazy animal after being splashed with boiling water. As a struggling fish, his skin became stiff and pale in an instant.

The wax on the mermaid's body melted as quickly as if it encountered hot water, and wrapped itself on the stiff player on the ground.

Around the player's eyes, the gray-black marble pattern seen in the white willow mirror appeared, and the eyeballs disappeared, leaving only the whites of the eyes covered with patterns, and the corners of the mouth were raised stiffly.

He was wrapped in these melted wax into a wax figure of a mermaid.

[The player's spirit value is cleared to 0 in Yizhong, completely alienated by the monster mermaid wax figure, and the game clearance fails]

[Player Liu Xiaohong's mental value is cleared to 0, and she was killed by a wax figure of a mermaid...the game clearance failed]

[Player Zou Mingri... failed to clear the game]

The small TVs of the players who failed to pass the level went out with a "Zi La", and the people around these small TVs sighed.

"Hey, I knew that it would be difficult to pass the level this time. "Siren Town" is too difficult..."

It was only the first night, and the monsters had just met each other, and almost one-fifth of the small TVs on the entire TV wall in the [Newcomer Area] went dark.

The TV screens on Bai Liu's upper, lower, left, and right sides were all extinguished, and he was left alone in a black screen, looking out the door calmly.

And he didn't know if it was Bai Liu's illusion. He felt that Andre's pupils had shrunk a little compared to yesterday, and his whole body had a nervous and restless aura that made people uncomfortable, and there was a faint fishy smell on his body taste.

Bai Liu took out the coin and swept it at Andre.

[npc name: Andre (decreased mental value, alienating)]

Andre seemed to have a big appetite at this time, and he ate a large plate of the hotel's buffet breakfast, as if pouring it directly into his throat.

Because this hotel is close to the sea, most of the breakfast is boiled and fried fish.

But Bai Liu smelled a pungent fishy smell like rotten fish tails, just like the smell of dead fish surrounded by flies that he smelled in the garbage dump where the fishmongers threw fish in the vegetable market. The bright fish dishes start to gag, let alone swallow.

But both Jeff and Lucy showed expressions that these things are very fragrant.

Bai Liu took out the coin and scanned it, and sure enough, the two people also showed [Alienation in progress], it should be related to the mermaid statue in the room.

Not to mention Andre, the way he ate made Bai Liu feel a little uncomfortable. Andre chewed big mouthfuls, the wet/slippery/black fish tail slapped his mouth as he chewed, and often used a fork to pick up the next one before he finished eating it. mouth to send.

Lucy cut the fish steak with a knife and fork, and looked at Bai Liu with a little surprise: "Don't you eat it? Baby! The fish steak here is really delicious, even if I want to go on a diet, I can't help but eat two!"

"You really found a pretty nice seaside hotel!" As she said, Lucy was about to lean over and kiss him.

But Bai Liu was choked by the strong fishy smell in Lucy's mouth, and subconsciously pushed her away. After thinking about it, she still pulled away the plate in front of Lucy, pretending to be serious and said: "Baby, you are in good shape now, I won't allow you Lose your beauty for a fish, let's have a vegetarian dish, the fish steak here is just like that."

Lucy was coaxed into elation. Although she was still reluctant to part with the fish steak, she obediently ate a lot of vegetable salad.

Bai Liu pretended to pack a lot of salads for Jeff and Andre by the way, letting them eat.

Jeff ate a little out of his mind.

On the other hand, Andre saw that Bai Liu's nose was not nose and eyes, and he mocked: "It's not because our rich man is short of money, right? Before coming here, he said big things and we come here with full board and lodging. Now he can't bear to let us even a piece of fish steak." eat."

"Look, Lucy, this is your mean boyfriend!"

Lucy immediately cursed angrily: "Andre! If it wasn't for Bailiu, do you think you can come to this kind of hotel to eat this kind of high-end fish steak? You can't even live in it! Look at how much you eat, if If Bai Liu doesn't pay you, you won't be able to get out of this hotel at all!"

"Lucy!" Andre roared, but Lucy stared at Andre with her head up.

Andre had no choice but to take the woman he liked, so he turned his head and was ready to take all his anger on Bai Liu.

Amidst Lucy's screams, seeing Andre's wide palm opening to lift Bai Liu's back collar, Bai Liu still wiped his mouth unhurriedly, looked at Andre, and said with a smile : "If you still want me to pay for you, you'd better not touch me."

Andre's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, his nostrils expanded and contracted like a cow, and let out a furious breath.

He looked at Bai Liu with red eyes, and threatened fiercely: "If you can't do what we bet on at night, I will make you, a short-handed trash who can't even get women, look good!"

Andre's eyes were bloodshot, and he seemed to have been dizzy with the anger that rushed straight to his forehead, but he couldn't do anything to Bai Liu, after all, he still expected Bai Liu to pay for him.

Just at this time, a broccoli accidentally rolled out of Jeff's plate, which was eating with his head down, and rolled onto Andre's shoe.

Andre is like a balloon that has been inflated to the limit and then punctured. Before the apology from Jeff's mouth can be said, he slaps Jeff on the back of the head with his backhand, directly hitting Jeff. Ralph banged his head on the plate and spat out what he had eaten in the morning.

"You dirty my shoes! You disgusting guy!" Andre seemed to find it funny when he saw Jeff vomiting, and he snorted out a laugh from his nasal cavity as he found some psychological balance, and gave another Jeff kicked.

After wiping off the negligible oil stain on his shoes on Jeff's pants, Andre said again: "I don't care about the useless trash, wipe it off, get out of here .”

Lucy helped up the dizzy Jeff, and she yelled hysterically at Andre: "You are too much, Andre! You are too much for Jeff!"

Bai Liu didn't care about the two quarreling, his eyes were focused on Jeref's vomit, the fish fillet with a golden shell, after being chewed and spit out by Jeref, the section turned out to be blue-black like a dead fish, with stains on it. It looks like a wriggling saprophyte.

People can't eat this rotten dead fish at all, and fishmongers in the vegetable market will use this dead fish to feed large fish.

Bai Liu still remembered that a fishmonger told him that the bigger the saprophytic fish, the more they like to eat dead fish.

The driver came to pick up Bai Liu and the others after Bai Liu's breakfast.

[Main task: Visit the Siren Wax Museum, reward points 50]

[Main task: Participate in the Mermaid Fishing Conference, reward points 50]

The Siren Museum and the Mermaid Fishing Convention, which sounds like two attractions.

Bai Liu pondered for a while, and was just about to ask the driver what these two were, when Jeref suddenly rushed up and stood between Bai Liu and the driver, with his head down and not speaking, his pale and thin cheeks were sunken, and the corner of his mouth was still There were blood stains from Andre's beating, his teeth were clenched, and he was trembling slightly.

Bai Liu raised his eyebrows. From yesterday until now, Jeff seems to have been trying his best to avoid contact with the driver.

This is not normal.

Bai Liu's fingers unconsciously turned the coin in his heart.

The coin flipped back and forth on the backs of his fingers, which was a common posture for Bai Liu to think about things. The feeling that money was in his hands, even a dollar, would make him feel calm and happy.

Without any other information, Bai Liu guessed that Jeff's target should be Andre. It's normal for Andre to have contact with the driver. It is necessary to isolate so deliberately.

There must be a reason for Jeff to isolate himself from the driver, and Bai Liu thought about it for a while, and it should be money.

Looking at the daily life of dressing up and being bullied by Andre on campus, Jeff obviously doesn't look like a rich character.

Andre is also very bullying. Although he is not forgiving to the rich Bailiu, he does not take any practical actions. However, he beats and scolds Jeff when he moves. From this point of view, the situation of Jeff's family is very difficult. It should be inferior to myself, not even Andre.

And last night, Jeff gave the driver what seemed to be a large sum of money. Bai Liu had reason to suspect that Jeff took the money he asked him to hire drivers and tourists to hire drivers to take revenge on Andre, so It was only because of a guilty conscience that he kept the driver from contacting him.

But Jeff paid the driver a sum of money last night. It stands to reason that the transaction has been almost completed, and the work of the driver and tourists is also performed well on the surface. He did not express any Suspect.
