Chapter 002 Hatchet
Fifteen minutes later, Su Ming stood at the entrance of the station for the second time. He first wrung out his clothes and pants, then walked down the stairs and entered the station.
As soon as he entered the station, Su Ming shivered at the cold air in the station.
"Beep - starting to load intelligence - beep -"
In Su Ming's mind, the system started beeping again, as if it was loading something.
The scene before him left him no time to pay attention to the system's instructions.
The walls of the subway station entrance were covered with large patches of blood, which splattered on the wall and formed a piece, like wild paint splashes.
Su Ming lowered his head.
The ground was covered with scattered pools of blood, some of which had dried up, while others had been dragged away and spread forward, forming a bloody path that stretched crookedly and disappeared at the corner ahead.
He squatted down in front of a pool of blood and poked it gently with his fingers. The surface of the pool of blood was somewhat coagulated, but not solid yet. Instead, it was a sticky paste formed after some water evaporated, which meant that the blood had been flowing out for some time.
Su Ming's gaze fell on the edge of the pool of blood, where intermittent blood spots formed a road sign that extended to the fork in the road in the distance.
With such a large pool of blood, it can be basically confirmed that this is the first scene of the deceased's death. It is very likely that the deceased died on the spot, but why is the body not here?
Was it moved away?
If the body was dragged away, it would leave a blood trail similar to the one next to it, but there were no signs of dragging on the ground. Instead, there was a series of blood spots, so the body was carried away.
So...how was it carried away?
Su Ming raised his head and observed the blood spots along the way, and another picture appeared in his mind - a man carried a corpse on his shoulders and walked towards a fork in the road not far away.
The killer was a very strong man.
Su Ming took a deep breath.
It is obvious that this place is very dangerous and ordinary people cannot cope with it .
Although Su Ming felt that he was just an ordinary person, there was a voice in his subconscious telling him that this was not the first time he had encountered such a situation, and he had encountered worse situations before.
After finishing the analysis, Su Ming did not linger any longer and just randomly chose a direction that sounded good to him.
After walking a few steps, he came to a corner. After turning the corner, he soon came to another fork in the road.
Su Ming frowned and gradually quickened his pace.
After encountering several forks in the road in a row, but not seeing any ticket checkpoint or information station, he knew where the problem lay.
The roads here are as complicated as a maze. A normal station would not have such a confusing design.
There was something wrong with the station itself, it was no ordinary station...it was like a maze.
Su Ming continued to move forward following his intuition, and slowly, the blood on the road became fresh.
At a turn, he saw a bloody handprint that had not yet dried.
It seems that there was an injured person who passed by here not long ago.
Just then, intermittent footsteps were heard in the silent corridor, mixed with a woman's breathing - someone was coming towards him.
Su Ming's sense of crisis grew stronger and stronger.
He felt that something bad was approaching!
The next second, a beautiful young woman appeared at the corner ahead. Her right arm was dislocated and hung dangling at her side.
When the woman saw Su Ming, she was stunned at first, then the expression on her face changed from fear to relief, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Great! There are still people alive! Did you see that monster?"
Su Ming stared at the other person for a while and came to a conclusion in his mind.
This is just an ordinary woman, nothing special and not dangerous at all.
Since this woman is not dangerous, where did the sense of crisis just now come from?
This woman just mentioned monsters. Are there any monsters here?
"Hey, take me with you, I'm lost." The woman said in a trembling voice.
She quickened her pace and walked towards Su Ming. When she passed a fork in the road ahead, a rusty hatchet suddenly swept out and hit the woman in the chest, knocking her away.
The reason why it was knocked away instead of being cut in half was because the blade of the axe was too blunt.
Su Ming's eyes widened, and his gaze instinctively locked on the hatchet.
Although he only saw a piece of it, Su Ming estimated that the hatchet was one meter long. This size was beyond the normal range, which showed that this weapon was not used for chopping wood.
Moreover, to be able to swing such a large hatchet at such a speed, the person wielding the hatchet must be incredibly strong.
Through the angle of the knife swing just now, we can roughly estimate the shoulder height of the person holding the knife, and then estimate his height.
Su Ming's judgment was... that person was very tall, much taller than a normal person.
Is this the monster ?
Do you want to fight?
Tsk... We don't have enough information right now, and fighting this monster is too risky. Let's just run away!
Su Ming glanced at the woman lying on the ground in the distance. The woman was motionless and was probably dead.
Without further hesitation, he turned around and ran away.
He rushed to the nearest fork in the road as fast as he could, and kept running, turning according to his first instinct when he came to a fork in the road.
After turning countless corners, Su Ming finally left the maze-like tunnel.
And now, what appeared in front of Su Ming was the ticket gate.
He walked up to check the ticket machine. It had no power. The electronic display boards around it that reminded people of train arrivals were also dark . It seemed that all power supplies in this station had been cut off, except for the overhead lights.
Su Ming jumped lightly, crossed the triangular pole, walked all the way to the edge of the platform, and looked into the deep tunnel, but the tunnel was pitch black and he could not see anything clearly.
This should be the end point. Now there are two choices. One is to stay here and wait for the bus, and the other is to go back and play hide-and-seek with the monster.
In this case, of course you choose one!
He also saw the power of the monster just now. Only a lunatic would go back and fight the monster head-on!
If I go back now , I will most likely collide head-on with the other party. The chance of survival will be greater if I stay here and wait for the car.
However...it is possible that no train will arrive at the station at all, or perhaps this is simply an abandoned subway station. After all, many of the equipment here have no electricity.
Instead of waiting here, it would be better to jump off the platform and walk along the tunnel, maybe you can get out.
Well... let's do it this way.
Just as Su Ming was about to jump off the platform, a slight sound came from deep in the tunnel. The sound was approaching quickly. It was the sound of a train running.
It's strange that there are trains running even though there is no electricity at the station.
Although he didn't know where he would go after getting on the bus, he decided to get on.
When in danger, you must choose the option with a greater coefficient of variation, even if that option may lead to hell.
I don't know who told him this, but he agreed with it.
Su Ming looked back at the entrance he came from. It seemed that the monster had not caught up with him yet. He just needed to wait patiently for the train to arrive, then get on the train and escape.
Although the situation is still unclear, the escape process was surprisingly smooth. This may mean that the goddess of fate is on his side, Su Ming thought.
While waiting for the bus, Su Ming kept looking back at the entrance, his eyes moving back and forth between the tunnel and the entrance.
Finally, white car lights came on deep in the tunnel.
The car is coming!
