slenderman?
Lin Xiaoman, who had never heard of it before, had three question marks popping up in his mind.
Without any explanation, 93 pushed through the crowd and got off the subway first. As soon as he got off the train, the people who were still hesitating at the door immediately followed him down.
Everyone was scrambling to get off the bus, as if they were afraid they would be caught if they ran too slowly.
"Wait for me, wait for me!"
"Don't leave me!"
…
Even the middle-aged man, whose leg was not sure whether it was broken or just sprained, limped out of the car door as fast as he could.
Lin Xiaoman quickly jumped down.
The old station was deserted, and the lights on the ceiling were not very bright, with a hint of yellow.
The wind was howling in the subway tunnel, and coupled with the newspapers on the ground, it created the atmosphere of a horror movie set.
93 had already stood aside, staring at a sign hanging above him that read 'New York' in English.
"What's going on?"
“Why is everything in English here?”
"Look, New York? Are we in New York?"
"You're talking nonsense. We were just in Lingdu, halfway around the world."
"Signal, where's the signal? Do you have a signal on your cell phone?"
"Damn it, what the hell is going on!!!"
…
They gathered together, some panicking, some cursing...
Lin Xiaoman looked around. There were about twenty people on their side. She had counted them just now. Not including the two of them, there were 36 people in the entire carriage.
The remaining dozen or so people probably have no idea where they have gone.
"Don't panic, we need to unite." The strong man shouted a few times to maintain order, then said to 93, "My two little brothers, my name is Gu Tong. I wonder if it's okay for us to meet."
"Chen Mingzhang."
"Wan Musen."
"My name is Gu Liuguang, nice to meet you all." The gentleman with glasses came over and asked, "What do you think of the current situation?"
"Stop talking, there's no signal! How about we walk around and look for a cell phone signal?" A man in a black leather jacket interrupted.
"Yes, yes, let's find a signal to call the police." The others nodded.
It was obvious that they had witnessed 93's extraordinary strength, which could even kick away that unknown puppet thing. The group of people stayed together and squeezed towards 93, as if they were afraid that they would be in danger if they were too far away.
Without paying any attention to them, 93 directly asked Gu Liuguang, "Do you know something?"
"I'm lucky enough to know a little bit." Gu Liuguang pushed up his glasses and said solemnly, "A friend of mine once told me that all the people who disappeared in the past year actually died in the subway tunnels."
"hiss……"
A group of people gasped.
"And just now, with that little light..." Gu Liuguang continued, "I felt that the monster looked a bit like the slender ghost in the American ghost stories."
"Slender Man? What is that?"
"Puppet monster?"
Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
Gu Liuguang pushed his glasses up with his index finger again and explained in detail, "Slenderman, translated as a slender ghost. In urban legends, slendermen are usually very thin, with overall features very similar to humans, but compared to us, they appear very tall. Their bodies are extremely disproportionate to their limbs, with slender arms and legs that are obviously longer than their heads, and their arms even extend to the knees.
It often wears a black suit and a red or black tie, but its facial features are obscured. Those targeted by it experience a range of psychological pressures, as it not only tracks them at all times but also makes them irresistible. This often leads to hallucinations, nightmares, and paranoia, and these individuals are often ultimately killed by it..."
"Are you talking about them?" Lin Xiaoman subconsciously grasped the key point in his words, and while asking, she gave 93 a questioning look.
"That's basically what he said." 93 replied quickly, indicating that Gu Liuguang was right.
"Yes, because Slender Man is just a general name. They are a family. In addition to Slender Man, there is also the very trendy Trendy Man. The one we just saw should be Trendy Man. In addition, there is Tender Man who likes to do housework, and Splendor Man who is usually very friendly but will go berserk once he gets angry..."
"Ah! I remember now. I heard two episodes of the Slender Man horror story during the American Ghost Stories series!" A short-haired girl suddenly spoke up. "I... I remember your voice. You're the host of 'It's Dark, Please Close Your Eyes'!!"
"Yes, that's me." Gu Liuguang smiled at the short-haired girl and nodded, "Thank you for listening to my show."
"Wait... so you're just a radio host who tells puppet stories, and you made up all that? Are you crazy? You're still scary in this situation!!" The young man with an earring cursed angrily.
"That is, at this moment, do you think this joke is funny?"
"Fuck, I almost believed it."
"It's still a weird story, it's just nonsense?"
“You…are talking nonsense!”
A young man with earrings took the lead, and several others joined in the condemnation.
"Slender Man, this isn't something I made up, it's a strange story circulating in the cities of Country M. And here..." Gu Liuguang paused, raised his hand, and pointed at the station sign above, "This is New York!"
