Chapter 245 Paradise Island
Soon, the first, the second, and more and more bloody handprints suddenly and strangely appeared on the windows of the train. The passengers who were originally sitting by the windows in the carriage stood up in shock and moved to the middle of the train.
They looked out of the window vigilantly, trying to distinguish some clues from the thick darkness, but as always, they could not see anything in the darkness outside the train. Those bright red bloody handprints seemed to appear out of thin air. There was
a rustling sound from the roof of the train, as if something was crawling on the body of the train. Although they knew that the things outside could not get in, this sound and the appearance of bloody handprints still made everyone nervous.
The people of Youxi had already moved to the doors where they were going to get off the train before the bloody handprints appeared.
Lin Wu was at door 1 of carriage 2, Youxi was at door 4 of carriage 3, and she was at door 1 of carriage 4.
Judging from the location, Tang Yatong was very close to Youxi, only separated by a transitional door.
Tang Yatong was not afraid of these things. After the abnormal situation outside the train, other passengers waiting at the door moved to the center of the train, but she went up to carefully observe the handprints outside the glass.
It was indeed blood, and it looked like it had just flowed out of the human body or some biological body not long ago, because the blood was not coagulated and was still sliding down along the glass.
But thinking about it carefully, the sliding situation seems even more bizarre. After all, the train is still moving, and there is a speed bonus outside the glass. If the blood has not coagulated, it should spread backwards along the direction of travel.
And the shape of the handprint. If you look carefully, you will find that the five fingers are not very far apart, and there seems to be something else in the middle that sticks the fingers together.
Is this really a human hand?
When she thought about this, her mobile phone vibrated. Youxi sent a message in the group: It doesn't look like a human. Be careful. So far, no one has guaranteed that the decryption platform will not be attacked by those things if you get off from the correct door.
Lin Wu also sent a message: Well, be careful, don't be preconceived.
Tang Yatong: Xiaoxi has no shield, be more careful.
Youxi: Got it.
Outside the train window, a familiar yellow light came in, and the slowing train slowly stopped at the platform.
The four doors of each carriage opened at the same time, but the passengers waiting inside were slow to get off the train.
The entire platform was covered with messy bloodstains and pools of blood, spreading from the side close to the train to the opposite side. The ceiling above the platform was also covered with bloodstains, and some places were even dripping blood. The
strong and pungent smell of blood filled the air, making people suffocate and vomit.
Even though the platform was empty, the passengers were shocked by the scene, as if they had fallen into a scene from a nightmare.
The people of Youxi finally took the first step. The example told them that no matter what was waiting for them on the platform, they had to leave the station within 10 minutes, so the sooner they acted, the better. If they delayed, they would be more likely to be trapped.
Youxi's Tang sword was across her body, and her five senses were fully open, and she was completely alert.
After she got off the train, she looked back and saw that the train behind her was also covered with messy bloody handprints and bloodstains, just like the platform, spreading from the top of the train to the bottom, as if it was a train from hell.
But the top of the train was empty, just like the platform. The things that had landed on the roof disappeared, leaving only bloodstains.
The exit hall is at the other end of the platform, about a hundred meters away. This time, the platform is only one-story, and both ends of the rails are still endlessly dark, and the world outside the platform cannot be seen.
Unlike before, this time in this dark, she can feel countless prying eyes.
The feeling of being stared at is very strong, but for some reason, the creatures in the dark did not appear on the platform.
There was the first person to get off the train, and soon there was the second.
This time the number puzzle is not difficult. As long as you change your thinking and find the rules, you can get the correct answer immediately. Most of the passengers found the correct door to get off the train, and even some novice passengers got off the train safely.
There were so many bloodstains and bloodstains on the platform that even the most careful people could not avoid them when they set foot. The exit hall is on the platform to the right of the train. Tang Yatong and Lin Wu walked very quickly, went around the front of the train, and bumped into You Xi who had walked there at about the same time.
When they were about to leave, they heard low cries from other passengers behind them. Several passengers in the crowd were suddenly frozen.
The blood that was originally scattered all over the ground seemed to come alive and gathered at the feet of these people at an incredible speed. Both of their ankles were entangled by the blood flowing upstream, and no matter how hard they tried,
they couldn't move forward. "What is this? What's going on?" Those people looked around in horror. Naturally, other passengers inevitably stepped on the blood, but they all stood there safely. Only these people seemed to be entangled by some invisible creature.
The blood was flowing faster and faster, wrapping around their legs, climbing up their bodies, and finally wrapping them up into bloody people.
They fell to the ground, their blood-covered hands desperately grasping the bright red liquid that wrapped around their entire heads, but it was useless. The suffocation made their bodies twitch violently, and soon there was no movement...
dead.
Being suffocated to death by being wrapped in blood, this way of dying is more frightening than being directly attacked by mutants.
"Let's go." Tang Yatong reached out and patted Youxi and Lin Wu on the back, and rushed into the exit hall quickly.
**
White sand, blue sea, blue sky, and refreshing sea breeze blowing on the face, the beach is full of tourists laughing and talking, everyone has different skin colors, wearing cool clothes, and is enjoying a pleasant vacation.
Youxi glanced at the door of the beach bathroom behind her, then glanced down at her sprint jacket and backpack. She had gotten used to this way of leaving the station.
The blood stains on her shoes had disappeared, but she was still immersed in the dark and weird blood-covered station.
She remembered that when she was in Wukong City, there was a motionless smiling man standing on the platform, and when the "mirror world" appeared, the "self" in the mirror would also show the same weird smile. This permeable smile could be said to be the key to several events in Wukong City.
So this time, could the key point be - blood?
The phone vibrated.

Easter egg (activated): Fragment collection rate (20%), number of fragments at this station: 0
Seeing the last line, You Xi frowned. There were no Easter egg fragments at this station. Judging from the fragment collection rate, she should have four more fragments to collect. She thought she would get one at each station later, but now it seems that if she wants to collect all the fragments, she will have to go through more stations later.
She took out the mobile phone she bought in Wukong City, but found that it still could not be used at this station, so she threw it back into the space.
She looked around and found a shelf near the bathroom door with a colorful travel guide on it. She took it and flipped through it, and soon got a general idea of the situation at this station.
Paradise Island, as its name suggests, is a tropical tourist island.
The island is not big, located on a vast ocean far away from the mainland in the southern hemisphere. Most of the information in the travel guide is an introduction to the various attractions on the island. The scenery of different attractions in the pictures is beautiful. In Youxi's eyes, these are all places that can be explored and hinted.
Tang Yatong and Lin Wu sent messages in the group, and the locations where the individuals randomly appeared were different. Youxi and Lin Wu were both on the beach, but in different locations, while Tang Yatong was near a commercial street.
Like her, both of them have their unlimited currency turned off.
At the moment, she is a penniless pauper in a station full of supplies, without even enough money to buy a glass of ice water.
Tang Yatong said that she had just left the station when she triggered the Easter egg fragments, and the range was in the commercial street, but the time limit was only two hours, so she had to find the fragments there first.
You Xi: How about this, you look for the fragments first, and tell us the name of the commercial street, and Lin Wu and I will go to your place to collect them. In addition, Lin Wu, you deal with a gold bar, and I will knock down a piece of emerald rough stone to see if we can find a place to deal with it.
Lin Wu: Okay.
Tang Yatong: Waiting for you to support me~ [Light up the smoke face]
**
The area of Paradise Island is about the same as Wukong City, but the beach and scenic area occupy half of it, so the built-up area is much smaller than Wukong City.
Because it is a tourist island, the buildings on the island are very neat and beautiful. There is almost no garbage on the streets. Many roads are paved with light gray tiles. The green plants are neatly trimmed. There are few vehicles on the road, most of which are bicycles and four-wheeled electric vehicles, which looks very environmentally friendly.
Many street squares have beautifully shaped fountains and exquisitely carved totem stone pillars. The crystal clear water jets spray out and fall, shining like crystal in the sun.
Groups of children were laughing and playing in the water by the fountain, while parents who were drinking coffee in the nearby outdoor cafes were happily chatting with friends. Looking around, it was beautiful. It was really hard to imagine that this was a station in the endless train world.
Youxi entered the restroom of a shopping mall, took out a rough stone the size of her head from the space, and knocked down a fist-sized piece manually.
This rough stone was of excellent quality. She pinched the rough stone again and divided the emerald into 5 pieces of different sizes. According to the normal price, of course, the larger the rough stone, the higher the number, but the price of such a large rough stone was doubled. She estimated that few stores could quickly purchase it, which would be troublesome.
Therefore, she kept the rough stones to the size of a pigeon egg, and then went to the outside sink to rinse and clean each rough stone, trying to make them look as they should.
In this way, the price of each rough stone ranges from 100,000 to 600,000 yuan - mainly depending on the price given by the buyer after analyzing the quality.
She was only going to sell one or two today and exchange them for the universal currency of this site, or she could barter and exchange the rough stones directly for gold bars, after all, gold bars are easier to handle than rough stones.
Without a mobile phone and money, she did not run far. She changed into a tourist outfit of T-shirt and jeans in the bathroom, put on a hat and a mask, and went to the jewelry store on the first floor of the mall.
She said she was a tourist who had lost her wallet and mobile phone and needed money urgently. She wanted to ask if there was a pawnshop nearby to pawn the emerald she bought at the previous stop.
The jewelry store also sold emeralds, so they naturally found the manager and said they wanted to see her rough stone first. If the quality was good, their store would be able to buy it.
Soon, after some appraisal and negotiation, the other party offered a price of 350,000 yuan. This rough stone, the size of a dove egg, was about 11 carats. After polishing, it would be partially damaged, but according to the quality of the emerald, this price was still low, but it was above the psychological price of Youxi.
She had space for six or seven rough stones the size of her head, which was just a small amount. It would be enough to sell it for 200,000 yuan.
Youxi pretended to hesitate, and the other party was naturally waiting for her to bargain. In the end, according to Youxi's request, a gold bar worth about 30,000 was added to the 350,000 cash.
Half an hour later, Youxi put the cash and gold into the backpack (space) and left quickly.
She went to another bathroom and changed clothes again. This time she changed into a cooler long T-shirt with hot pants, replaced the mask with sunglasses, and changed the backpack. Then she went to buy a mobile phone, activated the card number, and then went to a bank to activate the card by face recognition, deposited 200,000, and then took the tourist battery car according to the local tourism software on the mobile phone and rushed to the commercial street where Tang Yatong was.
An hour later, the people met at a Western restaurant on the commercial street.
Everyone has changed into cool summer clothes. Lin Wu processed a gold bar and exchanged it for 200,000 yuan. He also bought a mobile phone. He arrived earlier than Youxi and had ordered steak, ice drinks, salad, cake and other food for them.
Tang Yatong successfully found her Easter egg fragments. Like Youxi, the Easter egg fragments are the fragments of her lost memories. The process of finding the Easter egg fragments is also the process of finding lost memories.
The memory content restored by the first fragment is very limited, and Tang Yatong can't analyze more information for the time being.
But as long as all the fragments are gathered together, all the memories after entering the endless train world can be completely restored.
Everyone analyzed the current situation and agreed with Youxi's proposal of "blood" as the key point. They finished lunch quickly and planned to fill up the space after Youxi's upgrade.
Before leaving, Youxi ordered ten ribeye steaks and ten fruit and vegetable salads to take away.
They went to the bank first, opened a card for Tang Yatong, and deposited another hundred thousand yuan in it for her to use when she was on her own. Then they bought her a mobile phone and applied for a card. Then, they went to the largest shopping supermarket on the commercial street.
This is a warehouse-style supermarket, which is widely praised for its rich variety of goods and large quantities of single purchases at low prices. It not only has various foods, but also medicines and functional equipment that they want to replenish.
