Chi Yaoyang stared into Popov's eyes: "We must leave the commercial street as soon as possible. It is not a safe place."
“I believe the thief has noticed us, and staying here will only expose us to greater danger.
After hearing Chi Yaoyang's explanation, although Popov was still a little confused, he nodded silently.
He believed that Chi Yaoyang's decision would protect them.
The two men clenched their fists and stepped back onto the quiet commercial street.
Chi Yaoyang observed everything around him intently, ready to deal with possible threats at any time.
They carefully walked through a dark alley, around an abandoned building, and gradually moved away from the corner of the commercial street.
The buildings on both sides of the street became increasingly sparse, and the figures of people gradually disappeared.
Finally, they came to a quiet and spacious street.
Chi Yaoyang looked around and didn't find anything unusual.
The two walked out of the commercial street and left that eerie place.
The eerie calmness that had settled around them gradually dissipated, as if they had been freed from a kind of darkness, and their mood became much lighter.
Popov slowed down his pace, smiled and said to Chi Yaoyang: “I feel much better now!”
Chi Yaoyang couldn't help but smile slightly, "Yes, we should go back to the hotel and readjust our emotions in a relatively safe environment."
After saying that, the two of them quickened their pace and walked towards the hotel.
Popov clenched his fists and said, "We are finally going back to the hotel! I can't wait to lie on the soft and comfortable bed."
Arriving at the 44th floor, the two went to their respective rooms.
Chi Yaoyang pushed open the door of the restaurant, and the scene in front of him was still chaotic.
Broken glass and overturned chairs were scattered on the table, and the portraits on the wall looked even more eerie, as if something indescribable was looming in them.
He walked quietly to the bed and sat down, turning off the lights in the room.
Darkness gradually enveloped the entire room, with only faint moonlight streaming in through the window.
Chi Yaoyang took out the sleeping pills from his pocket and swallowed them gently.
He lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and slowly began to fall asleep.
The world in the dream becomes blurred and distorted, as if entering a realm completely different from the real world.
He was in a dark forest, surrounded by a strange atmosphere.
There were whispers among the trees, as if a group of ghosts were talking.
Chi Yaoyang felt that something was approaching him quietly, but he was not afraid at all.
"Who are you?"
Chi Yaoyang asked calmly.
"Leave now."
A low and indifferent voice sounded.
Chi Yaoyang frowned slightly, "Who are you? Why did you appear in my dream?"
"You know, if you don't leave on the eighth day, you won't be able to leave again."
The voice came without any emotion, seeming cold and heartless.
Chi Yaoyang said expressionlessly: "Don't worry, I will definitely pass it."
"Clear the level, hahahaha, you can't get out."
Suddenly, the darkness around began to distort, forming a huge vortex.
Chi Yaoyang felt that he was being sucked towards the center of the vortex by an invisible force.
"Let me go!"
He screamed and struggled.
However, his struggle was insignificant and he could not change his fate of being sucked into the vortex.
In the dream, Chi Yaoyang gradually lost consciousness and the whole world became blurry.
In the real world, he lay quietly in bed, breathing steadily.
There was no expression on his face, as cold as a sculpture.
The next morning, Chi Yaoyang was awakened by the noise.
He opened his eyes drowsily, only to find a staff member standing beside his bed.
"Sir, please get up and prepare to leave the dormitory." The staff said expressionlessly.
Chi Yaoyang sat up puzzledly, "Why do you want to leave the dormitory?"
The staff member forced a smile and said, "We need to clean up."
Chi Yaoyang looked out the window and found that the sun had risen high.
He got up in a hurry and walked out of the dormitory. He found many Chosen Ones gathered in the corridor. They all had pale faces and looked terrified.
There was a strange smell throughout the corridor.
The air seemed to be dyed with a strange color, which made people shudder.
The chosen ones were forced to stand together, looking at the expressions on each other's faces.
Chi Yaoyang noticed something strange—more than half of the chosen ones had turned into puppets.
Their faces were expressionless, their eyes were empty, and they stood there as if they were hypnotized.
The other Chosen Ones were also looking at each other in fear.
No one dared to speak, as if a single word would bring disaster.
The staff member left quickly and smiled at Chi Yaoyang.
Chi Yaoyang felt a little confused. He looked at the staff and frowned slightly.
He walked into the dormitory and prepared to check the situation inside.
However, when Chi Yaoyang pushed open the dormitory door, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
The dormitory was in a mess, with messy sheets and quilts on the bed.
The floor was littered with fallen cutlery and debris.
There are still some strange graffiti left on the walls.
Chi Yaoyang couldn't help but frowned, and the atmosphere became even heavier.
A thought arose in his mind - was this all arranged on purpose?
After taking a quick look at the clutter on the bed and confirming that there was nothing unusual, he began to pack up his belongings.
Chi Yaoyang took some effort to tidy up his room, then walked into the restaurant and sat down at the designated seat.
Popov was already sitting next to him, his childish eyes looking around curiously.
Chi Yaoyang picked up the knife and fork neatly and began to eat according to the rules.
He did not tell Popov about the disturbance in the room.
The restaurant was quiet and solemn. Under the flickering lights, every candidate was concentrating on eating.
No one dared to talk to anyone else or attract any other attention.
He lowered his head and concentrated on eating, taking each bite methodically, as if he was not distracted by all this.
Popov looked at Chi Yaoyang awkwardly, wanting to say something, but hesitated.
Chi Yaoyang's calmness gave him a sense of security and made him understand that he should remain silent at this time.
The two finished their meal in silence and left the restaurant.
Popov followed closely behind him, choosing to trust Chi Yaoyang was the safest option.
Chi Yaoyang and Popov silently followed the other chosen ones to the gate of the amusement park.
A smiling staff member came towards us and reminded all the chosen ones that today was a good day and they should enjoy themselves.
The staff is very enthusiastic.
"Hello everyone! Welcome to this wonderful amusement park. Today is your time to enjoy yourself. Forget about the stress and relax yourself!"
