Chapter 70 Key
Chapter 70 Key
Li Mu looks a little embarrassed now, but his mental state is still good, and there is no trace of negative emotion in his eyes.

"Let's leave here first, it's getting dark." Li Mu nodded to the two of them.

"But... Assistant Director Yu hasn't come out yet..." Su Qian looked towards the depths of the woods worriedly. She hadn't met Yu Hanzhou since they separated. Now the sky was getting dark. If he still hadn't come out of the woods, he would be dead.

However, the reality is even more cruel than Su Qian had imagined.

"No need to wait."

Li Mu's voice was a little low.

"what?"

Su Qian seemed not to hear clearly, and seemed not to be able to believe it.

"Li Mu, you...what do you mean by this?"

Li Mu looked at Su Qian. Everyone could see that this girl had mixed feelings for Yu Hanzhou. Although Yu Hanzhou had always kept a polite distance from her, Su Qian had never given up.

"He's not coming back."

Li Mu said seriously.

These six simple words broke down Su Qian's last psychological defense. Her eyes went dark, her body swayed, and she was about to fall to the ground.

Bai Yanliang quickly reached out and supported her, but she had already fainted.

“As for the separation of life and death... we in Wu Ji are more likely to experience it than ordinary people. It’s like a child hiding in a corner, suddenly rushing out and catching people off guard.” Li Mu looked towards the Wuji Village, feeling a little depressed.

Some are for Su Qian, some are for Yu Hanzhou, and some are for myself.

Bai Yanliang looked down at Su Qian. Her pretty face was already covered with traces of tears.

"Mr. Bai." Li Mu suddenly turned his head and looked at Bai Yanliang: "You are a very rational and smart person, and you are very similar to someone I have met."

Bai Yanliang's eyes changed, his heartbeat suddenly quickened, and his emotions began to fluctuate.

"Excuse me...who is that person who looks like me?"

Li Mu looked at Bai Yanliang in surprise and said with a smile, "I thought Mr. Bai was a man with little emotion... Let's go, and talk while we walk."

After he finished speaking, Li Mu took the lead and walked towards the village.

Bai Yanliang hugged Su Qian and followed, saying, "I'm sick and have almost lost all my emotions."

Li Mu looked at him in surprise again. Whether it was true or false, perfunctory or sincere, Li Mu could clearly tell.

But, that was why he was even more surprised.

He noticed Bai Yanliang when he first entered Wu Ji.

What Zhou Li said at that time was correct. There were only three people who did not show any signs of uneasiness or fear when they first entered Wu Ji.

Yu Sheng could not be counted, because anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was just wearing a mask of strength on her face.

Apart from Bai Yanliang, those two have already demonstrated unique and powerful personal charm, but their names were placed later because they did not enter Wu Ji early.

Li Mu originally thought that Bai Yanliang was the same as them, but unexpectedly, he lost the ability to perceive and express emotions due to illness.

However, Bai Yanliang did not disappoint Li Mu. He paused and said, "Don't worry too much. People's joys, sorrows, anger and happiness are intertwined with other people. What you think is lost may just be hidden too deeply. Maybe... for some reason, you sealed those emotions yourself. One day, they will come back little by little."

Bai Yanliang nodded and thanked Li Mu for his kindness.

He heard Li Mu's comfort, but these were not the words he wanted.

"Mr. Li, you just said that you met someone who was similar to me. Can you tell me more about him?"

Li Mu looked at Bai Yanliang in surprise. He had only said it casually, but he did not expect that Bai Yanliang seemed to really care about this matter.

"He...how to put it, he is not from Wu Ji, he is a criminal, a very scary criminal." Li Mu said simply after choosing his words.

Bai Yanliang stood there in a daze. This was completely different from what he had imagined.

"Criminal? Is he still alive?" Bai Yanliang asked.

Li Mu nodded. He didn't know why Bai Yanliang was interested in the criminal.

"He is not only alive, but also living well. He commits a bizarre crime every once in a while, and we have not caught him yet."

"Mr. Li is a criminal policeman?"

"Yes, detective."

Bai Yanliang was silent. Yang Wanlong, Gao Fei, Li Mu... most of the people he knew were criminal police.

"Can you tell me more about him?"

This time, Li Mu shook his head and rejected his request.

"I can't reveal too much about him. I can only tell you that he is a very dangerous person. The codename given to him by the police is...Key."

Bai Yanliang's heart was beating violently. The code name "key" instantly reminded him of the silver key on his neck.

Could that person be related to Yanren?
……

When Su Qian woke up again, it was completely dark.

She sat up on the bed, holding her chest, her heart aching slightly.

She knew that there was someone...who would never come back.

"It's good to wake up, the dead are gone."

Li Mu's voice sounded from the side.

Only then did Su Qian realize that everyone was in this room, the village chief's house.

"Xiao Su, don't be too sad. We still have to live." Lin Yan is ten years older than Su Qian, and her words of comfort were just plain.

Su Qian looked at everyone, shook her head slightly, and smiled: "I'm fine, I... I knew this day would come. It's either him or me."

This statement applies to everyone in the fog set.

There is no end to this horrible place. No one knows what it is, and no one knows how to escape from this curse. Perhaps... no matter how strong the will to survive is, it will be completely worn out by the endless horror and weirdness.

The fog has gathered, and many people have committed suicide...

Rather than facing terror and despair, they chose death.

But more people don't dare to do so. In a world where evil spirits exist, is death really the end?

Perhaps after committing cowardly suicide, their souls will also be tortured.

"Well, then... let's continue. Tomorrow is the last day. The village chief is missing, and they don't dare to go out to look for him at night. We should be able to find clues tomorrow morning." Li Mu said.

"I found a drawer in Lu Bingyan's house. At that time, perhaps because the drawer was mentioned, I was instantly dragged into an illusion-like environment. That ghost... should have the ability to fold space." Yu Sheng said shockingly.

Even the absent-minded Su Qian looked at everyone.

However, this statement was denied by two people at the same time.

“It’s not folding space.”

"Chaotic space and time."

The first sentence was said by Li Mu, and the second sentence was said by Bai Yanliang.

Even Li Mu had never thought about what Bai Yanliang said.

Three pairs of eyes looked at him with various strange emotions, but Bai Yanliang said confidently:
"The time and space of this village are disordered and superimposed."
