Chapter 180: Skull (Finale)
Plunged into darkness again, all sensations disappeared completely, Kasia began to suffocate, the mud poured into his body through his mouth and nose, and there was a surging vomiting sensation in his stomach pouch, but there was still no resistance to the silt that seemed to have a life force.

Then there was a disconnect in the mind like the lights were cut off, and the rest of the story was completely forgotten by Kasia. The golden skull above his head was still hovering there, his hollow eyes just looking at the wriggling mud, not knowing what he was thinking. Perhaps without the assembly of his brain, he would not have been able to imagine that such a thing was also a possibility.
When he woke up again, it was the crisp sound of a bell ringing in Kasia's ears, and a slight vibration was heard in his lower back. His eyes opened with difficulty, and Kasia subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands, but the dazzling sunlight did not shine as he imagined. It was still late at night, it was pitch black outside the window, there was nothing to use as light, and it was still in a deserted wilderness, and the raised sharp rocks indicated that this was the base of a mountain range.
"It's the sound of a small alarm clock. Kasia picked up the alarm clock, which was still ringing wildly, and the sound was like a series of explosions of thunder in the silent carriage, shaking his eardrums with a faint pain. My whole body is still in the same state that I woke up in the morning, soaked with sweat, and my heartbeat has not yet recovered.
Without strength, Kasia was forced to sit in her seat and gasp violently. He didn't turn off the small alarm clock, and no one around him, including Julien and Taranto, who were sleeping next to him, reacted to the loud alarm sound in the slightest.
They all slept to death, and Kasia checked Yu Lian's state and realized that it might be inappropriate to describe him as sleeping dead. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to fake your death. Their breathing, heartbeat, and body activity had all been at their lowest point in the middle of the night, as if the blood in their bodies had run out, and now they were just a dying corpse struggling on the line of death.
"Sure enough, something went wrong here, there were external factors affecting the whole train. The memory was still vivid, and Kasia remembered the skull in its entirety, and the touch of being completely swallowed up by the black sludge.
After resting for about a minute or two, the sweat became icy cold in the cold air of the carriage. Kasia simply took off his short-sleeved clothes and adjusted the air circulation system to let the temperature in the cabin slowly rise.
Pulling out Dot Zero's revolver, Kasia hung the bullet pouch around her waist again, barely adjusting to the feeling of not having much strength in her body. Looking around, all the passengers were in the same state, their faces were calm, and they did not show the same strong feeling as Kasia.
There was no change in the carriage, the only difference was that there was one less person and a black box.
It was the girl, the girl who sat diagonally behind Kasia. The seat there was already empty, and there were a pair of small footprints on it that had not been wiped clean. It seemed that the little girl was standing in her seat, struggling to remove the black suitcase from the luggage rack. Kasia could imagine the little girl as she took the box, her thin body not proportional to the black box.
"Did the little girl say that?" Kasia vaguely remembered a phrase reaching his ears before he was swallowed by the mud, but the memory of that sentence was fading out of his brain at a visible rate.
Without thinking about these things that he didn't have a clue about, Kasia went to the first few carriages to take a look, and there was nothing else to pay attention to except for the passengers with different faces in the same state. In the conductor's room, the train driver also fell asleep on the console, but fortunately he had already set the program in the difference machine. There is no need to stop here, and there is no need to slow down and stop, so you don't have to worry about the safety of the entire train for the time being.
Her body still felt weak, and Kasia walked carefully in the aisle between the carriages. When I returned to my own carriage, I tried to go to the next carriage, but I found that the doors at the junction of the two carriages were all locked. Thankfully, it's not the kind of door that opens with a passcode, it's a handle-type door that locks with a key.
I thought I could see through the glass window above the door to see the situation in the back compartment, but what Kasia saw in the window was her own pale face. On the other side of the door, while Kasia was sleeping, the glass had been manipulated, and they had been pasted with a layer of shiny paper, turning the otherwise transparent glass into a standard mirror.
"It's really 、、、," Kasia looked at herself in the mirror, and it took a moment to find the right adjective, "It's easy to use, and it's effective." ”
Not daring to shoot at will, nor to spread his cross pupils at will, Kasia followed every important command passed to him in his body. Just resting in front of the door, it was considered to accumulate strength, Kasia took a few deep breaths, and injected the little strength of his body into his arms in one breath. Then with a sudden twist, the door lock was completely broken.
Push open the door and enter, there is the connection between the two cars, which can be called the smoking area. The wind was still as strong, whirring, and the temperature was even lower, and the blow on Kasia's bare upper body made him feel a little cold.
The same door in front of it, and the glass windows have been treated as well. Kasia opened him in the same way, but there was nothing in the carriage he was looking for, it was eerily quiet, it was not even the sound of people's breathing or heartbeat.
Walk to the bottom of this carriage, where the door is still locked.
"Did that little girl do these things?" Kasia wondered, and her image of the girl deepened in her heart. Opening the locked doors of the two carriages in front of him in the same way, Kasia held her gun carefully. The train was strange everywhere, and it had been like that for two days, but he still couldn't find a clue. Except for the golden skull that is getting clearer and clearer, and the pair of empty eyes that seem to have a god.
Twisting the doorknob in his hand, Kasia only felt that he had a lot of cold sweat all over his body, and his bare upper body seemed to have just flowed ashore from the river in the cold light, covered with beads of sweat. I really have never been so tired, and there was no such thing in those years in the steam factory, as if this tiredness would completely corrode my bones.
After resting for a while, Kasia split the door in front of her and looked into the carriage.
It was finally no longer quiet, and several people were standing, both men and women, and the little girl was inside. But what happened there didn't seem to be a good thing, at least in Kasia's opinion, what could be solved with a pistol and a dagger usually didn't end happily. (To be continued.) )
