after falling asleep

Chapter 102 04. When the cup laughs, the person is broken

A chill hit the whole body.

Gradually scribbled handwriting, and finally scribbles and punctured pages all indicate the mental state of the person who wrote the diary.

[You picked up the report in doubt, there might be some clues in it. 】

Transparent Bridge picked up the report and opened it.

……

laugh--

wow-

Mu Su fell to the last step.

The chandelier in his mouth shook, and the rusty joints creaked.

There are no longer stone steps under your feet, but soft gravel.

He heard the sound of the waves resounding day and night and the unique smell of the sea, which was indescribable.

Mu Su on the front steps turned around and took a look, and he appeared on a pitch-black beach.

The sky was dark, and there were no stars or anything else.It's like a child who is just learning to paint paints the sky with a black paintbrush.

He should not be able to see anything, but Musu could see the entire beach at a glance, the beach shrouded in pitch blackness.

This is strange.

There's also something odd about it.

After discovering the silt, Musu descended another 80 steps, which is nearly [-] meters high.

What is certain is that the tide will never rise there.The question, then, is where that wet, silt from the deepest part of the ocean comes from.

Mu Su loosened his mouth and took off the oil lamp, wiped the saliva off his handle in disgust, and shook his numb feet.

The oil lamp should have been extinguished long ago, but it still kept a weak light illuminating the surroundings, but it didn't fade away.Let Musu murmur that this is the legendary nuclear oil lamp.

Soon he shifted his attention and looked at the seaside under the gloom,

Tu suddenly discovered that there was a silhouetted shadow standing on the beach several hundred meters away.

It's a log cabin.

……

Police discovered the vicious incident a week later.

A villager in a nearby village called the police. His father had gone hunting in the mountains for a week and had not returned.A mountain patrol team composed of the police and villagers found the hut on the coast behind the mountain after searching the entire mountain.

The police decided to break in after smelling a strong putrid smell outside the door.

The situation at the scene was appalling. On the floor of the hut was a charred corpse with a torch stuffed into its mouth. Surroundings were found unburned rope fragments. The corpse showed signs of struggle. It can be judged that the victim was restrained. ignite.

Comparing the size of the charred corpse, it was confirmed that it was the father of the villager who called the police.

A emaciated corpse sat beside the bed.Male, about 30 years old.The legs are pinned to the floor by a harpoon.His eyes were pulled out and stuffed into the alarm clock.The time of death was similar to that of a charred corpse.

Because of the heavy rain during the rainy season, the hut was damp and moldy, which was not good for the police to collect evidence.A new body was found in a wardrobe in the corner after police searched the scene carefully.

The corpse has been dead for a long time and has been in a state of giant view, and it is impossible to distinguish the specific appearance.Male, with a brown sweater on his upper body.After investigating the town, some residents reported that this person was a homeless man who had disappeared for two weeks.The statement could not be verified, but the disappearance roughly coincides with the time of the death.

After collecting all the evidence, the police confirmed that the body next to the bed was the suspect.We confirmed the identity of the suspect by putting together the shredded documents that were thrown in the trash can.And find his parents in the small town.

According to the suspect's father, his son was fine two weeks ago, that is, a week before the incident, and he was at the post office and also reflected that he had a good personality and no mental problems.There is no genetic history in the family either.But since picking up that diary two weeks ago, something has started to go wrong.

After reading this, the transparent bridge paused slightly.His eyes moved, and the focus fell on the yellowed diary beside him.

The sound of the butler robot cleaning the floor came from downstairs through the open door, she let out a slight breath, and continued to look.

The yellowed diary was retrieved by the suspect from the seaside cottage, which was the scene of the murder.His father recalled that on the night of reading the diary, he seemed to have a hallucination suddenly, saying that he heard someone whispering.His father didn't care about it at the time because the room was not well soundproofed.Maybe it was the voices next door or the radio.Afterwards, his mental state began to deteriorate rapidly, and he often talked to himself, and claimed to hear the sound of waves and whispers.

The suspect disappeared the next day.

Because the suspect works at the post office, he often leaves early and does not come back for a few days, so his father is not too worried.Until the police came to the door.

The case stopped again without any progress. On the surface, it looked like a person went crazy and killed a hunter and a homeless man.But the police don't think so, suspecting that the matter may be related to a cult.

This is the end of the report. There is still a line of marker marks at the end and a dark dot at the end. It seems that the police officer who wrote it is wondering.

[Strange, why the suspect does not have a giant view. ]
There is an appendix at the end of the report, which is the scene photos taken by the forensic doctor, photos of the suspect and anatomical data.

The transparent bridge covered it and put it back in place after a glance.She feels her heart beating fast now, and her palms and forehead are a little sweaty. If she looks at it rashly, she will scare herself and lose the ability to judge normally.

The sound of sweeping downstairs had died away.The bedroom is very quiet, only the slight sound of wind and sand beating against the floor-to-ceiling windows.Usually this kind of voice can bring her peace of mind, but for some reason it makes her a little anxious now.

After the blue sunset had disappeared behind the hills, the smart bedroom automatically turned on the bedroom lights, but it was still dim.

She couldn't suppress her curiosity about the yellowed note, but she was a little uneasy because the whisper hadn't sounded for a long time.So the transparent bridge opened the white diary again and compared the diary with the report.

[You feel even more confused. 】

The long-lost whisper came.

[Who is that voice?What is the point of it making me look at these things?How did this thing appear in my home?Am I in the game, or in reality?Your mind is filled with doubt and panic. 】

Transparent Bridge's hands and feet were a little cold, and he froze in place.

She was completely seen through.

She forced herself to calm down, fear and nervousness only made things worse.

[Be calm.be calm.be calm.You tell yourself that.Then you panicked even more, and you couldn't understand how the voice could see through your thoughts. 】

Transparent Bridge took a deep breath, decisively called out the horizon, and prepared to contact the police.

Whether it's a problem with the brain or a virus in the horizon, she can't solve it now.

[You don't know, but you decide to take a step.You flipped through the last diary. 】

The whisper sounded again, causing the transparent bridge to pause slightly, and his eyes fell on the yellowed diary.

After thinking about it, she picked up the diary.

The diary is as thick as a finger, with an indescribable fishy smell.She couldn't help but took it further away.Keep a distance where you can read the characters clearly and not get caught by the fishy smell.

In the dim light, the diary was turned to the first page.

Suddenly, the cup in his hand smiled at her.
