Chapter 603

Su Huilan held up the torch and walked in the dark and narrow cabin aisle under the weak light.

It's the same path as the last time, but it feels completely different. Last time there were many of them, and more than a dozen people held torches, but this time she was the only one.

For a moment, she regretted it. If there was something strange and shouldn't be on the ship, it was obviously not wise for her to be alone. But she has always been calm. Why did she make such a decision just now?

Suhuilan suddenly felt that something was always affecting her decision. Ramra's chaos is not only spatial, but also spiritual and conscious. Here, people's thoughts and behaviors have also become unpredictable.

However, she is not an ordinary weak woman. Now that she has come down, she always has to watch it again.

Da, Da, Da

The footsteps were her own, coming out along the narrow corridor and echoing in the darkness ahead.

For the first time, she found that the Jungle Boots under her feet could make such a loud sound on the boat board, and the sound was very strange, as if someone stepped on her steps and landed with her.

Da (DA), DA (DA), DA (DA)

The more she listened, the more she felt more than her own footsteps, her heart pulled up and her breathing was cramped.

He stopped abruptly.

The sound of clattering disappeared.

The firelight shone a round, faint yellow halo around her.

It was as quiet as time stopped, and you could hear the beating of your heart.

But the heartbeat seemed to have a stress, as if someone deliberately kept the same heartbeat as her.

She took a step forward.

Da (DA).

She was creepy and in a trance. She felt that there was someone behind her. She held the torch like her and maintained the same posture. When she stopped, the person stopped, and when she left, the person left. Even her heartbeat and breathing were the same rhythm.

She suddenly turned around, drew her gun and aimed at it. The torch in her hand gave a shout, which was almost extinguished by the air flow.

When the fire light stabilized, she saw nothing in front of her. There was only endless darkness ahead, and the outline of the cabin door she came in was faintly visible.

Meow——

When she heard the cat's cry, she remembered the sound at her feet and was looking up at her.

"Oh, I almost forgot you!"

She picked up the sound, put it on her shoulder, and let the cat face behind her, so she was much more at ease.

The cat suddenly meowed and screamed wildly, and the shrill cry was frightening in the cabin.

"What's the matter, hearty?" suhuilan felt hearty claws clinging to her shoulder and bowed up.

She turned around and saw only a long dark passage.

The cat quieted down.

She continued to walk forward, and the clattering footsteps sounded again. In front of her was the dormitory of officers and soldiers.

She opened one of the doors. There were three high and low bunks in it. Six navy soldiers were neatly dressed and lying in bed.

Suhuilan went in and shone a torch on the face of one of the soldiers. Like the last time I saw it, it was a mummy. The muscles on the face contracted due to the loss of water. The whole face was attached to the bone, and the eye sockets were deep. If you look carefully, you can see the eyeballs inside.

Suhuilan suddenly felt a little wrong. The eyeball was not blocked by the eyelids, indicating that the deceased died with his eyes open. But these soldiers looked very peaceful. You can imagine the scene at that time - they grew old slowly in static time and space. At the last moment of their life, they lay down on their own bed, no struggle, no pain, only deep despair.

But who dies with his eyes open?

Unless they are unwilling. How could you die so neatly if you were unwilling?

It is also puzzling that people's life expectancy varies from long to short. Some people die early and others die late. It is really strange that these officers and soldiers seem to die in the same way at the same time.

She examined several other mummies, and the situation was almost the same. Except for the eyelids covered in the eye sockets of individual soldiers, the others opened their eyes.

She remembered the last time Mrs. Larry checked the bodies and somehow didn't find the problem. Of course, in this environment, it was really difficult to pay attention to such details, including situ and Aoki, as well as themselves. I didn't find them at that time.

She withdrew from the dormitory and checked several other rooms at random. She found nothing else.

When she walked, she always felt someone following her, just like her shadow, keeping pace with her, whether it was footsteps or heartbeat.

Da (DA), DA (DA), DA (DA)

The fire flickered as if there were wind.

She stopped and the wind stopped.

Maybe it was the wind brought by herself, she thought.

Da (DA), DA (DA), DA (DA)

Further on, the captain's room.

The door is open. Did you close it the last time we left? She doesn't remember.

Ronald Cohen was still in that position, leaning on the chair in front of the desk. The fire shone on his back, around his shoulders and on the desk. There used to be a stack of manuscripts and half of the soul of fire, but now there is no more. Only Cohen's shadow is left, which is a little distorted in the slightly leaping light of the fire.

Suhuilan suddenly frowned. She remembered the last time she came in, Cohen's arm was on the armrest of the chair, but now it hung down and hung outside the armrest, as if there was no time to put it on.

Her heart tightened violently.

This is the captain's room. It is also the most spacious bedroom on the warship. In addition to the bed, desk and cabinet, there are sofa, TV and separate bathroom.

Suhuilan clattered in and wanted to take a closer look. Did she remember wrong, or did someone touch Cohen's body when she came out last time.

She went to Cohen's side and found that it was really different from the last time, in addition to his arm and his head. Cohen's head was slightly tilted and his eyes were fixed on the manuscript on the table. Now his head is tilted more and his eyes are fixed on the ground under the table.

Does Su Huilan think this is a hint that the last time we found his manuscript, is there anything hidden under the table?

She squatted down and lit it with a torch. She found nothing. But she saw Cohen's hand hanging outside the chair up close.

She found something wrong with that hand. Originally, the hand of the corpse should be stiff and shriveled, like dead wood, but there is a soft film on the surface of the hand, like the mucus of the dead frog.

She speculated that this was because the wet air on the lake entered the cabin and began to corrode the surface of the body. It's just that I don't know what's special about the air here, or what radiation lesions these corpses encountered in still space. Corrosion doesn't appear as mildew as common on earth.

Fortunately, the air circulation here is slow, and these bodies are dry thoroughly. There should be no rot and odor in the short term. Su Huilan has no way to deal with these bodies now. She can only wait for Aoki and them to come back to discuss this matter.

She checked under the desk again to make sure there was nothing there. She stood up slowly and found that her heart had jumped badly.

The sound of heartbeat is very loud in the dark, and it seems to have stress——

Dong (Dong) Dong (Dong), Dong (Dong) Dong (Dong), Dong (Dong), Dong (Dong) Dong (Dong)

It seems that the wind comes in and the back is cool.

The fire jumped again.

She suddenly turned around and saw a man sitting on the sofa opposite, looking at her with his empty eyes.
