transparent weirdo 江户川乱步 1403Words 2018-03-15
More than an hour later, around five o'clock in the afternoon, a large number of police forces gathered in front of the air-raid shelter.Standing at the front were the boy who discovered the air-raid shelter, Captain Yoshio Kobayashi, Team Leader Nakamura of the Metropolitan Police Department, and reporter Kurokawa, followed by six heavily armed police officers.Because we were going into a dark cave, everyone had a flashlight in hand. "The three of you guard the entrance of the cave, and catch anyone who runs out. The enemy is invisible, so I'm afraid you can't just rely on your eyes to see. After we go in, you use the rope that tied the prisoner to make a net. This transparent monster also has a flesh and blood body." , as long as he passes here, there will be movement in the net, and then you will rush to catch him. Do you understand?"

Team leader Nakamura gave instructions to the three policemen and said "I will take the lead" before rushing into the cave first.As expected of Nakamura, who has the reputation of "leopard courage", he is a bold man with high art skills.Not to be outdone, Kurokawa reporter followed closely behind.After that, Captain Kobayashi, another member of the regiment and three police officers also entered the cave. They are different from Otomo-kun, each of them has a flashlight, and they act in a group, so they are naturally courageous.A group of people passed through the small hole at the end of the corridor, came to the deep open place, and opened all the wooden doors that could be opened, but did not find Otomo-kun.The transparent monster is invisible, so it is difficult to tell whether he is there, but the strange thing is that the scene is empty, and there is no human breath at all.

They searched through several small rooms, and finally arrived at the strange old man's research room—it was incredible, all the secret doors leading to the research room were open, and the group of people walked unimpeded.The laboratory is also empty, and the situation there is very different from what Otomo-kun saw at that time (of course, it is impossible for Nakamura and Kobayashi to know this).Most of the medicine bottles and strange-shaped instruments on the medicine cabinet have been gone, and only a few bits and pieces are left.Could it be that the old man knew the police were coming, so he ran away early?

A group of people were surprised by the spacious research room of the air-raid shelter. They never expected that there was a strange old man living here, so they didn't become suspicious. They just wandered around and looked around. "Oh, look, there is another entrance and exit here." Reporter Kurokawa found a secret door, which was also open. "Hey, there is still room inside. Let's go and have a look!" Team leader Nakamura took the lead. The darkness is full of moisture, like a gloomy hell.Under the light of the flashlight, the shadows of a group of people fell on the wall and ceiling, clutching and reuniting, swaying, it was like a group of demons dancing wildly, it was really scary.

"Oh, someone walked by!" It was Xiao Lin's high-pitched voice. "No one is passing by. Everyone is walking forward, and no one is coming from the opposite side." This is the voice of reporter Kurokawa. "Someone really touched me and ran away." Xiao Lin believed in his own feelings.Something soft touched his shoulder and arm and whizzed by, sure enough! "Ah! Someone ran over just now. It's 100% human! But I can't see him." A police officer exclaimed. Immediately afterwards, there were voices declaring that someone was passing by beside him.The transparent weirdo is in this dark space, and there should be more than one person!They are like jellyfish swimming around in the deep sea, bringing people indescribable fear.

"Mr. Xiaolin, I'm here!" Just then, a familiar voice came.It's Otomo-kun's voice.He is in this darkness! "Otomo-kun?! Where are you?" Captain Kobayashi shot around with a flashlight. "Here! Here!" Otomo-kun's voice came from the front.Captain Xiaolin followed the sound, and soon, an "iron cage" that looked like a ferocious beast appeared in the light circle of the flashlight, and the sound seemed to come from inside.Xiao Lin and another member of the regiment arrived quickly, and the light of the two flashlights passed through the iron fence and illuminated every corner of the cage—no one was there.

"Captain Kobayashi, and Tamura-kun, I'm out of luck. Have you seen that old man with a white beard wearing square glasses? He made me look like this." Captain Kobayashi and Tamura-kun were startled and looked around.Dayou-kun's familiar voice was right in front of them, but they couldn't see him. "Dayou-kun, where are you?" "It's right here, right in front of your eyes." - Qiang Qiang. It was the sound of fingernails hitting an iron fence.That's right, it's the iron fence in front of you.But I just couldn't see Otomo-kun.Captain Kobayashi and Tamura-kun didn't know that he had been transformed into a transparent person, and strange things happened before his eyes when he heard his voice but couldn't see him. They even thought they had seen a ghost.
