Horror start, I'm numb

Chapter 56 A Darkness

Seeing Minghe again in a dream, Zhu Yangxin froze in place and did not dare to move.

This person had been out of contact for a long time, but suddenly appeared today, but he seemed to be a different person, Zhu Yangxin felt strange.

Seeing Zhu Yangxin who looked alert, Minghe pressed his fist against his mouth and coughed lightly to ease the embarrassment.

"come over."

He waved.

Zhu Yangxin hesitated, but reluctantly walked over.

He wanted to say something, but his mind was in a mess and he couldn't find a suitable topic.

In the end, he winked at Xiaoya.

Xiaoya obediently stepped forward and opened the door of dreams for the two of them.

"Let's go."

Minghe waited at the door for Zhu Yangxin to follow.

Zhu Yangxin pursed her mouth and rushed the ducks to the shelves.

She didn't see Minghe behind her, and secretly exhaled.

The door is closed, and it is still necessary to pass through the darkness to pass through the door of dreams.

I don't know how long it has passed, but the surrounding area is still dark.

emmm...Zhu Yangxin wondered if the dream gate was broken, why the darkness lasted so long this time, and I couldn't see anything.

She hesitated for a moment, and wanted to call Minghe, but found that she couldn't speak.She was a little panicked, eager to escape, but her body could not move.

Ahhh, what's going on?Could it be that Min Hyuk is messing with himself?
Zhu Yangxin continued to be mad.

On the other side, Minghe arrived at a cramped small warehouse of about two square meters, which was filled with all kinds of messy things, including clothes, key chains, stationery, etc., and every corner was stuffed to the brim.

He walked out of the room, and there was a small facade outside, displaying all Two-dimensional related peripherals, as well as some comic books and magazines.The owner is a young man in his early twenties, with long hair and a few strands of bleached and dyed hair of all colors.

"Go and restock over there."

Seeing Minghe come out, the shopkeeper pointed to the shelf not far away, ordering Minghe to work.

Come on, this time I became a shop worker again.

The business of the store was rather cold, and Minghe had a lot of free time to wander around. He took the opportunity to search the neighborhood for a long time, but there was no sign of Zhu Yangxin.Dreamland would not randomly arrange irrelevant characters, so he had to wait patiently for others to come to him, so that he could discover new clues.

After a few days, a customer finally came to the store.

The person who came was a little fat man with a fair appearance. Upon closer inspection, he had sunken eye sockets, greasy hair, and a bit of sloppy body.

The little fat man took down a comic book with ease, and moved to the counter.

"Boss, what's new recently?"

The little fat man smiled.

"Yes, I'll get it for you."

The owner got up, went to another room next to the small warehouse, and took out a T-shirt.He displayed the front of the T-shirt on the counter. On the T-shirt was a hand-painted two-dimensional girl with a hot figure and a pretty face.

"hey-hey."

The little fat man rubbed his hands, opened the outer plastic packaging, and unfolded the entire T-shirt to reveal the complete picture. The shopkeeper did not stop him.

"Okay, I want this too."

After paying the money, he smiled and left holding the T-shirt and comic book.

Minghe secretly followed the little fat man, and found that he lived in a community two intersections away.He found a hidden corner and secretly observed the little fat man's residence. He saw many Two-dimensional posters pasted in his room, various figures on the table and in the cabinet, and comic books scattered all over the room. , and a lot of takeaway lunch boxes that I didn't have time to clean up.

After the little fat man returned to the room, he threw the T-shirt on the bed and started reading comic books, giggling from time to time.I fell asleep when I was tired, played on the computer or swiped my phone when I woke up, and relied on takeaway for meals.He never left the house until dark, and no one came to him.And before nine o'clock, he turned off the lights and turned off the computer to sleep.

Minghe didn't find anything abnormal, so he had to go back to the shop first.

Several days later, the store was deserted and there were no other customers at all.The little fat man came to the door again and bought the latest issue of the comic magazine and a T-shirt.

"Who is this person?"

Minghe looked at the back of the little fat man leaving, and asked the owner curiously.

"He, Cao Xiaopang, doesn't want to find a job to earn money after finishing his studies, and spends his parents' retirement wages at home all day playing, tsk tsk tsk."

The owner had a look of contempt on his face.

The shopkeeper came back to his senses and stared at Minghe: "Are you finished? I didn't hire you here just to chat. Hurry up and get to work."

Minghe didn't say much, turned to the back door and slipped out, and asked around with other people, and what he learned was similar to what the owner said.Cao Xiaopang has been eating at home since he graduated from junior high school. Except for visiting this store, he rarely goes out, and he has never seen him have any contact with classmates or friends.His parents stopped taking care of him a few years ago and only gave him some living expenses every month.

Minghe frowned, such an otaku hardly had contact with outsiders, so naturally it was unlikely that he would have any interaction with Zhu Yangxin.

Where is Zhu Yangxin?

It has been many days in the dream, and there is still no news from Zhu Yangxin, Minghe can't help but feel worried.

He squatted with Cao Xiaopang for several days. Cao Xiaopang had a regular schedule every day, except that he lived in a house, and his life was extremely simple.

The longer time passed, the more irritable Minghe became. Now he is still not sure who is the nightmare monster. If Zhu Yangxin meets the nightmare monster first, will he be in danger?He could sense that Zhu Yangxin was safe for the time being through the talisman, but what happened next was completely uncontrollable.

Zhu Yangxin was also irritable.

Ever since she stepped into the gate of dreams, Zhu Yangxin has been in darkness. She tried to detect the surrounding situation, but this skill also seemed to fail suddenly.She wondered if she was stuck in some kind of bug, but she had no proof.

Since Cao Xiaopang had no results, Minghe focused on the shopkeeper.The shop owner also stayed in the shop all day, and Minhyuk had never seen him go out. When he needed to go out to do errands or buy something, he would let Minhyuk run errands.So, the owner's situation is actually quite simple, and he has been under Minghe's nose all the time.

If there was anything Minhyuk didn't know about, it was that the owner would occasionally stay in the room next to the small warehouse for hours at a time, and he didn't allow Minhyuk to go to that room.

Minghe was curious, but when he sneaked inside to look, he only found a cabinet of blank T-shirts, textile paints, brushes and other tools. The T-shirts that Cao Xiaopang bought every time were DIY by the shop owner. work.The room was not too big, and there was no place to hide people at all.

In the past few days, Minghe has observed more carefully, even the delivery staff and the property owner, but there is still no clue about Zhu Yangxin.

Minghe angrily kicked the empty bottle at his feet.

Cao Xiaopang jumped up in fright, barely dodging the flying drink bottle.
