Midnight, New York subway.

Qin Zhibo, Kuroba Kaito, and Terai Kinosuke stood at the entrance of the subway station, waiting for Nancy's arrival.

When they were at the hotel, Qin Zhibo had already told the two of them that one more person would be needed on this trip.

After waiting for twenty minutes, a yellow taxi stopped at the corner of the street.

A young woman got out of the car, wrapped in an ill-fitting beige windbreaker and a wide-brimmed hat in the night, and hurried towards here.

She ran to Qin Zhibo and raised the hat that covered her face a little.

"I have arrived……"

"Huh...huh..."

Nancy was breathing heavily as she spoke, and kept glancing at Kaito Kuroba and Kinosuke Terai next to her.

Since she has a special constitution, she hardly goes out. She lacks physical exercise and does not get enough "food". She usually relies on the care of other N-cell members.

Kuroba Kaito's legs were slightly bent, and his eyes happened to look at Nancy under the brim of his hat. He discovered that she was a young and charming Western beauty, and he immediately became interested.

"Hello~"

"My name is Kuroba Kaito, please give me your advice."

Kuroba Kaito put on a handsome and confident expression, brushed his hair, and extended his right hand in a friendly manner.

But Nancy just glanced at him coldly like a "little kid", then took a step sideways and walked towards the entrance of the subway.

This made Kuroba Kaidou stunned. His invincible pick-up technique actually failed?

Qin Zhibo patted Kuroba Kaito's shoulder comfortingly and said seriously: "Give up, your trick won't work on her."

"She is not the kind of woman you imagined."

"Ah?" Kuroba Kaito scratched his head in confusion.

…

The four people bought subway tickets at the ticket office and entered the subway station.

There was not even a single passenger waiting to take the subway at the subway station at midnight.

Under the cold light, scraps of paper lay around the iron-mesh trash cans, and the gaps between the floor tiles were filled with dirt. It was in line with the outside world's imagination of the dirty and messy New York subway.

Qin Zhibo led the three of them to the edge of the subway platform, jumped from the steps onto the subway track, and then walked deeper along the track.

When we were halfway there, there was a faint roar in the rumbling tunnel.

"The subway is coming, please stand aside!"

Qin Zhibo said hello, and the four of them stood close to the wall.

After waiting for more than ten seconds, the subway appeared from behind and soon arrived at the location of several people.

The lights in the subway windows flashed on the faces of several people, and a weak suction force emanated from the air around the subway, lifting the clothes of several people.

After the subway passed, the few of them continued walking forward.

After marching for about half an hour, everyone arrived at the underground shaft where the two gangs of ghouls fought last time.

There are no steps here, so you can only step on the complex vertical and horizontal abandoned water pipes and use parkour to go down.

But both Qin Zhibo and Kuroba Kaito have the help of special tools, one is the [Flying Claw] and the other is the rope gun produced by the doctor.

Kuroba Kaito fixed one end of the rope gun and extended an invitation to Nancy.

"Miss Nancy, let me take you down~"

Nancy looked at the frivolous Kuroba Kaito and replied mercilessly: "No need."

Then, she walked to Qin Zhibo.

Obviously, she is more inclined to believe in Qin Zhibo than "little brat" Kuroba Kaito.

Although what Qin Zhibo used to fix the rope was a human hand bone that had completely taken off the skin and flesh.

Kuroba Kaito and Terai Kinosuke looked at Nancy, who would rather choose "human hand bones", and looked at each other with expressions of disbelief.

…

In this way, the four people were divided into two teams, Qin Zhibo led Nancy, and Kuroba Kaito led Terai Huangnosuke.

The four of them descended to the deepest part of the shaft below, climbed a little higher, and arrived at the space passage leading to the dreamland.

The rancid smell emanating from the dark abandoned water pipes made Kuroba Kaito frown.

"This...do you want to get in?"

"Yeah." Qin Zhibo nodded matter-of-factly, "Don't you often drill pipes?"

"The ventilation duct I drilled was... there might be a dead rat in it."

"So I said before that you don't have to dress too cleanly."

After saying that, Qin Zhibo turned around and got into the abandoned pipe first.

Kuroba Kaito got two cotton balls to stuff their noses, and both Terai Kinosuke stuffed their noses.

He handed the cotton ball to Nancy again, but Nancy refused again.

Several people got into the pipe one after another, and the fishy smell inside became stronger, and the decaying rust made their skin itchy.

Qin Zhibo just kept crawling inside, until at a certain moment, the circular barrier surrounding his body suddenly disappeared.

In a dark space filled with ashes, the four people slowly stood up.

Kuroba Kaito, Terai Kinosuke, and Nancy looked around in disbelief.

Among them, Kuroba Kaito took out his night vision goggles and put them on his head, but all he could see was a dark flat land without a single plant or any sign.

"Follow me the whole time, don't get separated, and don't make a sound as soon as possible."

After giving the instructions, Qin Zhibo led the three of them running in the direction leading to the "Xin's Tombs" above.

…

Although the place you enter the Ash Space is a fixed space passage every time, the location after entering the Ash Space is slightly different every time.

This time the location is closer to the northwest ascending channel than last time, which is good news.

Qin Zhibo led the three of them sprinting in the darkness, intending to get there as quickly as possible.

But as they ran, Nancy fell at the back of the team.

Even Terai Kinosuke's physical strength is far stronger than Nancy in human form.

In this space without any markers, Qin Zhibo needs to use the [navigator] to always run at the front and lead the way.

Otherwise, if the direction is slightly shifted, it will be far from the destination.

"Uncle, do you want to stop and take a rest?" Kuroba Kaito ran to Qin Zhibo's side and suggested.

"no."

Qin Zhibo decisively rejected Kuroba Kaito's proposal.

"This place is not as safe as you think. There are..."

At this moment, a hoarse sound like a cough came from the surrounding darkness.

Cough——

Ahem...

An inhuman voice lingered in the darkness, and it was clear that what Qin Zhibo was most worried about appeared.

"What is this sound?"

"Yaogui, a kind of man-eating monster that haunts this space, is very numerous."

Qin Zhibo didn't explain much and could only run towards the ascending channel as quickly as possible.

When he left Fantasyland last time, Qin Zhibo had already discussed with Matsumoto Ryohei if

Now we can only hope that support will be in place in time.

…

In the dark space, the four people huddled into a small group and ran in a certain direction.

In the surrounding darkness, there are constant gray shadows that stir up the floating ashes and roll up a medium-sized whirlpool.

This is the demon's hyena tactic, which first causes constant oppression and consumes the target's physical strength.

When a certain number of demons and ghosts gather together, the demons and ghosts will attack together.

The sense of smell of demons and ghosts is extremely sensitive. Even if they do not make a sound to gather their companions, the body odor emitted by their prey will attract many demons and ghosts.

There is no way to deal with this kind of body odor in advance, because this space itself has no smell, and any smell from the outside will be judged as prey by demons and ghosts, even the smell of feces.

This is why Qin Zhibo asked everyone to run as soon as he entered the Ashes Space.

However, he still could not escape the fate of being discovered by the demon.
