Operation Red Book

Chapter 435 The Bottomless Pit in the Whirlpool

It's Kristen!

"Kiki!" Ivy immediately smiled.

The champagne-colored curls rubbed against Ivy's face and she had never felt so warm.

"I'll count to three! Miss Ivy! Please pull up with me!"

Kristen said from behind Ivy.

She took off the wax ball pumpkin head cover and grabbed Joshua's wrist with both hands.

Ivy snorted through her teeth, and a huge amount of energy surged between the muscles of her legs.

“1! 2! Aaaaaaaaaah!”

Before they could count to three, a powerful force came from the front and instantly knocked the two girls to the ground.

The crowd dispersed like a stream of water, leaving only a bare open space and Joshua sitting in the center of the space.

Under the cold moonlight, the two huge bat wings flashed a dark red light.

Joshua's eyes had become abnormally red and swollen at some point, and terrifying fangs had protruded from his lips, reflecting the blue flames in the sky.

He stood up tremblingly, spread his wings again, and swept away a large group of people.

Countless pumpkins were swept down by the wings, scattered everywhere, and were trampled into pieces by the pushing and shoving crowd.

All of this was seen by Christine who was not far away. Ivy, who had not yet woken up, was held in her arms, at a loss as to what to do.

Joshua slowly retracted his wings and met her eyes. There was a mysterious gleam in both of their eyes, as if they were competing secretly.

"Christine? Joshua?"

Ivy called the two people's names in a low voice. She struggled to get out of Christine's arms. As soon as she looked up, she saw clusters of blue flames, vast and mighty.

There were groups of pumpkin people who threw away the pumpkins on their heads and exposed the flames on their shoulders to the air.

The flames continued to move forward, and their destination was the beautiful Lake Eden.

The lake surface suddenly lost its calmness and began to spin rapidly along the center of the lake.

The first thing Ivy thought of was a flush toilet, and the second thing she thought of was the lightning vortex above the Chinese wharf.

The light blue surface of the lake was rapidly stirring, sparkling under the blue flames flying around.

Soon, the center of the lake sank, and a dark hole slowly appeared under the support of the water circle, like a calm yet dangerous eye of a storm.

"Then...what is that?"

Ivy pointed at the huge whirlpool in front of her and said in a trembling voice.

"A pure and innocent soul, in a bottomless black hole..."

Joshua replied softly, his abnormality had faded away and he returned to Ivy's side.

"This is the bottomless black hole of Lake Eden."

Ivy stared at the whirlpool in front of her without blinking, her shoulders shaking constantly.

The light blue starry sky illuminated her face and even more so the astonishment in her eyes.

"If I'm not mistaken, the pure and innocent soul... is the blue flame in the pumpkin mask..."

Before Joshua finished speaking, the undead slowly let go of their holding hands, making way for the pumpkin people behind them to reach the lake.

"Halloween night, Halloween night..."

Halloween songs are still being sung by people, and the brisk and smooth melody adds a thin layer of weirdness and strangeness to the atmosphere.

Suddenly, a pumpkin man stepped forward and walked straight into the whirlpool.

The high-speed rotating water flow created a wave, which quickly lifted the Pumpkin Man up and threw him into the center of the water where the speed was even faster.

The Pumpkin Man stood in the water, his whole body tense as if stiff.

Most of his body was submerged in the water like a sapling, while the flames on his shoulders floated high above the water.

As the water spun faster and faster, the Pumpkin Man got closer and closer to the center, and the flames on his shoulders flickered more and more.

With a soft "splash" sound, the Pumpkin Man was swept by the water flow and fell into the "bottomless pit" in the center, and disappeared without a trace.

Ivy opened her eyes wide and looked at the strange scene in front of her. She didn't dare to make a sound or even breathe.

"The beauty of the butterfly's birth covers the entire town of Lei..."

I don’t know how much time had passed, or how long the Halloween song had been sung, but suddenly a muffled sound was heard from the bottomless pit, and then a black shadow slowly emerged from the water.

Countless blue butterflies swarmed over and tightly surrounded the black shadow on the water.

A blazing blue fire suddenly rose up, burning the water around the black hole and making it bubble.

Gradually, the flames became smaller, and a naked adult man emerged from inside.

The butterfly disappeared, as if nothing had happened.

The man opened his eyes, but there was no sign of life in them.

He walked slowly towards the shore, stepping on the lake water below.

The moonlight shone on his body, as if covering him with a thin layer of fluorescence, making him look holy and beautiful.

At this moment, almost everyone held their breath.

Everyone was attracted by the scene before them, which seemed like a 15th-century oil painting, vivid and lifelike...

The pumpkin people around finally became agitated. People rushed forward and stepped into the lake, fearing that they would lose their seats.

Countless people were thrown into the bottomless pit by the waves. That bottomless pit was truly a bottomless pit, infinitely accommodating the pumpkin men and the souls on their heads.

"Oh no! Find Mrs. Hudson!"

Joshua was the first to react. He quickly dived into the crowd and looked for the familiar figure in the crowded flames.

Ivy and Kristen also reacted quickly. They helped each other to get up, but they didn't know where to look.

There were crowds of pumpkin men around him, each with a cluster of blue flames on their shoulders.

It was almost impossible to find Mrs. Hudson among so many people.

"No, no...Mrs. Hudson will be fine..."

Ivy comforted herself in her heart, but even though it was just comforting, hot tears welled up in her eyes.

There was a big rock not far away. Thinking that the higher you stand, the farther you can see, Ivy simply pulled Christine up.

"No one here... no one there... no woman in lavender... only two children in lavender and the fat man..."

I'm really going crazy...

"Ms. Ivy, look! Are those cookies made by Mrs. Hudson?"

Just as Ivy was feeling dejected, Christine suddenly pointed in the direction of Lake Eden.

Ivy looked hurriedly, but all she could see were some khaki round cookies scattered under people's feet. She couldn't tell with her naked eyes whether they were Mrs. Hudson's cookies.

However, in the crowd over there, Ivy spotted a thin purple figure at a glance.

Mrs. Hudson!

Ivy grinned in surprise because Joshua was not far from Mrs. Hudson.

"Joshua! Behind your right hand! Behind your right hand!"

Ivy shouted loudly, and it took several moves to hook Joshua's head back.

Joshua followed Ivy's command and slowly looked behind to his right, and sure enough, he found Mrs. Hudson holding an empty plate in the crowd.

Once you find the direction, everything will be easy.

He went against the flow of people, struggling to push through the crowd around him and desperately moved in the direction of Mrs. Hudson.

one person……

Two people……

Then there were six people... ten people...

The endless stream of people hurried past Joshua like a rushing stream.

A light purple figure appeared before my eyes, then disappeared, appeared again, and disappeared again...

"Go away! Go away, everyone!"

Joshua yelled fiercely, his eyes turned red again, and the strength in his body seemed to be much greater.

"Get away! Get away!"

"Mrs. Hudson!"

Finally, after pushing aside a few people who were in the way, Joshua finally grabbed Mrs. Hudson's arm.

"Mrs. Hudson! Hu..."

"Oh! Isn't this my aunt's cute little bird?"

Sen You's words echoed quietly in his ears, and Joshua stumbled in his heart.

Judging from her figure, she was Mrs. Hudson's niece. She was holding a music box that looked very old.

"You're here to celebrate Halloween too! I'm so happy! Hehehe..."

Mrs. Hudson's niece spoke incoherently and kept pushing Joshua along the crowd, making a harsh sound.

With the Halloween song echoing in his ears, Joshua suddenly saw Ivy waving at him eagerly in the distance.

Strangely, he could see Ivy's exaggerated lip movements but couldn't hear any sound.

"Quick! Quick! Come and purify your soul with us..."

An unpleasant sound suddenly pierced the ear canal, followed by a strong push.

"Ugh!"

Joshua fell backwards uncontrollably, and behind him was a spinning lake...

The figure of Mrs. Hudson's niece gradually blurred in front of his eyes. The cold lake water rushed in from all directions, stimulating the temperature of Joshua's body.

He had never felt so cold.

Then, a wave hit, completely blurring Joshua's vision.

The only thought in my mind was...

Can't...let go...of Mrs. Hudson...
