Trafford’s Trading Club

"Everything about you will return to its original trajectory."

…

As if being pulled by something, Caroline felt as if there was a strange suction force inside her body, sucking 'her' from the outside into the inside of her body.

She woke up suddenly but found that she was not in the corridor of the teaching building. It was dark here, and there was the sound of a projector playing... She had been to this place.

This is the screening room in the school 403 took her to. Caroline began to check her body... there was no injury anywhere.

But she clearly remembered what happened before she fainted... Will everything return to its original trajectory?

"Are you awake?" The door of the screening room opened, and the person who walked in was 403, whom Caroline knew.

At this time, 403 did not wear the cheap-quality rén pi hood, and the bandage-wrapped appearance still made Caroline feel a chill no matter how many times.

"I...why am I here?" Caroline asked subconsciously.

403 said: "You fainted in the corridor, so I moved you to this place."

Corridor...Caroline closed her eyes and shook her head vigorously. The scene of the entire floor being destroyed was still vivid in her mind, "Corridor...what happened to that floor?"

"What's wrong?" 403 looked at Caroline curiously, "No, I just moved you back. By the way, I also moved them back."

"They..." Caroline was startled, and suddenly thought of something. She quickly walked to the projector window and looked outside.

On the stage below, a huge cage was placed at some point, and in the cage, several people were imprisoned... Arnold, Hailey, and Posti.

They seemed to have fainted.

Caroline suddenly looked back at 403. She didn't know what he wanted to do next, but she just felt that his eyes were not human at all.

"You...you want to kill them?" Caroline asked looking at 403.

403 shook his head, "I just let them feel fear and despair, and something more painful than death."

At this time, 403 reached out and passed Caroline's cheek. This action made Caroline startled, but she saw that 403 did not want to grab her, but just to open the door behind her on the wall. Button for the lights on the stage below the button.

Snap, snap.

The lights were turned on one by one, and the spotlights began to converge on the huge cage on the stage, shining on the three Arnolds.

403 moved the projector over at this time, then took a plate and put it into the projector. He started to turn it on, and the old-fashioned projector began to rotate slowly, and the films moved one by one under Caroline's eyes.

Caroline began to hear some sounds... She looked towards the curtain on the stage.

The yellowing quality of the picture seems to be a bit old... It looks like a documentary.

A woman was holding a child... a child who was about five or six years old. The woman's face was full of smiles and she was looking towards the camera. She held the child's hand and waved it towards the camera.

Caroline saw the house in the background. She felt a little familiar, and then suddenly remembered that this was the house she followed Arnold to in the first place...the old house where Arnold was born and raised.

"Hey, little Hailey, look at the camera and daddy." The woman loved the child so much that she kissed him on the cheek, "Little Hailey, say hello to your brother?"

Caroline could tell that the video was probably a family documentary, and the person holding the video camera was probably the woman's husband.

The camera began to rotate, and another child also entered the camera. The two children looked almost identical and were almost indistinguishable except for their clothes.

"This is them...them when they were children!" Caroline subconsciously looked towards 403.

I heard 403 looking at the video and saying calmly: "Look at them, they are so small, they are like angels, don't you think so?"

At this time, little Haili, who was being held by the woman, suddenly turned his face, and then kissed the woman on the cheek, making the woman laugh happily.

"Look at you, little Hailey. You are just like a little gentleman. You are so obedient. Mommy really likes you. This is my son. Of course, my little Arnold is also very good! With you two Just one, and I’m satisfied!”

The documentary is still playing, followed by some family games. Even a bystander like Caroline can feel the warmth of this family.

She suddenly remembered her childhood... She remembered that before her father died in a stray bullet in a gang fight, the family of three seemed to be like this.

"You...why are you showing me these?" Caroline frowned.

"No, no, no, I'm not showing it to you." 403 shook his head, and then pointed at the cage on the stage, "It's for them to see. I'm just debugging the picture so that it can have the best It’s just an angle.”

"You...how do you have these things?" Caroline asked subconsciously.

"It's easy to find something like this, right?" 403 said calmly: "It just depends on whether you have the heart to look for it, whether you want to find it, and whether you want to do it."

I saw 403 starting to rewind at this time, and then slowly said: "That was not my original plan, but something seems to have happened. This Haili actually came out early, and there are still some things that I didn't have time to show him... However, it doesn’t matter anymore. Because maybe seeing these effects will be better... Of course, my own mood will be much worse. But compared to what follows... it doesn’t seem to be important. Because I already have some control. It’s not a good thing if you can’t control yourself.”

As he spoke, 403 suddenly pushed up the speaker button, causing the sound equipment around the stage to suddenly become extremely harsh. Caroline had to cover her ears directly.

At the same time, affected by the harsh sound, the three Arnolds in the cage slowly woke up.

Boston woke up first and found that he was locked in a cage. He quickly stood up and subconsciously touched his waist. But when he found that his shouqiāng was missing, he suddenly Became sweaty.

"Who!! Who is here! Who is it!!" Poston grabbed the iron rod of the cage and roared angrily.

"Stop arguing! I have a headache!" Arnold patted his head and stood up with help, and began to look at the surrounding environment.

Hailey sat up, his eyes were dull, but he kept looking at the cage that trapped him. He didn't know what he was thinking. At this moment, a bright light suddenly came from the projection room above the seat. .

The light and shadow penetrated Arnold's body, and then were projected on the curtain behind him... Sound was accompanied by it.

"Hey, little Haley, look at the camera, look at daddy."

Suddenly hearing this voice, Arnold's eyes suddenly opened and he turned around quickly.

"Haley, would you like to say hello to your brother?"

Above the curtain, the young Hailey waved his hand, his eyes seemed to be infinitely magnified... Due to the poor shooting technique, the entire lens was filled with the child's face.

Arnold suddenly fell backwards and hit the cage. His breathing became rapid... He subconsciously averted his gaze... Subconsciously looking at Hailey, who was also looking up at the image on the curtain.

At this time, Hailey slowly turned his head and looked towards Arnold...

The eyes of the two brothers suddenly met together, and Arnold suddenly wanted to move a step aside.

"let me out!!!!"

At this moment, Haili suddenly jumped up and pinched Arnold's neck with both hands. He let out a roar like a wild beast and even opened his mouth to bite Arnold's ear.

ah! ! !

Arnold let out a shrill scream, but his left ear was forcefully bitten off by Hailey. He fell to the ground in pain. Hailey's mouth was full of blood. The living ear was still in his mouth at this moment, looking like a devil and terrifying.

"This... monster!" Seeing this scene, Boston was also frightened.

I saw Hailey suddenly staring at Boston at this moment. Under the huge fear, Boston's ruthless temper was instantly provoked, and he suddenly flew towards Hailey, "Freak! Go to hell." !”

"Don't call me a freak!!!!"

Normal people, even ordinary people with anger and fear, cannot resist a crazy person. At this moment, Haili's face was covered with blood, as if he didn't know the pain, and he had strength beyond ordinary people.

Boston hit Haley in the face with his well-trained fists, almost breaking the bridge of Haley's nose and blowing out his lips, but he was still unable to hit Haley.

Hailey suddenly took an opportunity and bit Boston's throat directly... Poof, the artery in the neck that was bitten suddenly spattered a terrifying amount of blood.

ah……

With a cry of surprise, Caroline could no longer bear to look at this extremely bloody scene, and her body was so frightened that she started to tremble... She looked up at 403's appearance in horror, only to see that there was a look of happiness in 403's eyes that could not be concealed. meaning.

He...he took a bag of beef cubes from somewhere, and he was eating it with relish at the moment. But when he saw Caroline looking at him, she even smiled slightly and said, "Oh, do you want to eat something?"

Smelling the smell of beef, Caroline suddenly felt nauseous... She quietly pressed against the wall, trying to walk towards the door of the screening room.

"The stage play hasn't ended yet, are you leaving now?" 403 didn't look back at this time, "Just finish it. I said that after this matter is over, I will prove your innocence... don't do anything to me. Bad reasons.”

Caroline nodded nervously and then stopped in her tracks.

But she didn't dare to look at what was happening on the stage... She could just hear Haley's voice clearly, and maybe Arnold's voice... Boston, Boston might be dead.

Under those circumstances, Caroline didn't think Boston could survive.

"You...why didn't you show up in front of them?" Caroline suddenly asked. This was a question that she couldn't understand even. She couldn't figure out why she wanted to ask such a question.

"Fear comes from the unknown." 403 said calmly: "If you don't let them know why they are trapped in the cage, and don't let them know who is behind it, the unknown... will make Arnold less proud. When everything is out of his control When the time comes, he will become helpless, even ignorant, and the abyss of fear will swallow him up."

"You...seem to know him very well." Caroline looked at 403, and there was a name in her mind that she wanted to blurt out: Lucas.

But she never said the name... She didn't try to anger the other person, nor did she try to explore the other person's origins. Keeping herself safe was almost the most important principle for survival as a prostitute.

"Who are you!!!!!! Let go!! Let go!!! You freak!! Let go!! I am the one who let you out!! Let go!! Ah!!! Monster!! You monster!!" ! Let...let me go...let me go...let..."

That was Arnold's roar, with anger that couldn't be concealed. Even from such a distance, even though she couldn't see what he looked like at this moment, every cell in Caroline seemed to be able to feel this moment. The fear that belonged to Arnold.

Everything is exactly as 403 said.

Caroline began to cover her ears and huddled in the corner, not daring to listen to the sounds the brothers were making on the stage.

Since then, Caroline seems to have been unable to hear Arnold's voice, or even Haley's voice. At this moment, the only sound outside was the sound of the family movie playing on the projector.

Their mother's voice.

"Hey, little Haley, look at the camera, look at daddy."

"Look at you, little Hailey. You are just like a little gentleman. You are so obedient. Mommy really likes you."

Time passed little by little, and when Caroline released her hands covering her ears, she found that 403 seemed to be crying at this time, staring blankly outside the playback window.

Maybe he was watching the movie on the screen, or maybe he was watching everything on the stage, and Caroline wanted to forget everything on the stage.

"Let's go, don't miss the past anymore." 403 suddenly walked up to Caroline and stretched out his hand towards her... He pulled Caroline up and said slowly: "It's over."

After that, Caroline watched with her own eyes as 403 took out several barrels of gasoline.

He poured gasoline on the stage, drenching Boston, Arnold, and Haley... Haley was still alive, but Arnold had fallen.

Arnold fell with Caroline on his back, so she couldn't see clearly what Arnold looked like at this moment. But she said in her heart, that's fine. If you can't see it, you don't have to think too much.

She knew that this might be self-deception...but how many people could do it without deceiving themselves?

But Haili was still like a wild beast, being stimulated to the point of going crazy again. 403 didn't seem to see anything. At this moment, it seemed to Caroline that he couldn't see anything.

403 finally set a fire, and the raging flames began to burn the seats here, and then spread towards the screening room and towards the stage.

403 put on his inferior rén pi hood again and walked slowly outside. Caroline suddenly had a feeling that this might be the last time she saw 403's bandaged face... It might even be the last time she saw this fuhou devil.

But even if she is a devil, Caroline has to keep up with 403, not for any other reason, because there is only one way to leave.

"Bedroom 403, I suggest you don't go there anymore." On the way, 403 suddenly said to Caroline: "Come with me, I will give you what I promised you."

Carlo followed 403 as he walked around the campus. The dark night seemed unable to stop 403. He easily dodged the crowds on the road who started to rush after discovering the fire.

But Caroline knew that even if they arrived at the scene, they wouldn't be able to save anyone because she clearly remembered that when she left, Haley almost turned into a 'fire man'.

Perhaps, nothing can force the fire to burn sin. When the flame goes out, everything will turn into dust, leaving no trace.

The place she followed 403 to was a pump room in the critical boys' dormitory area... When she opened the door of the pump room, what Caroline saw were some food residues piled up into a large cardboard, and There were some almost burned out candles.

"You...have you always lived in this place?"

"It's nice here. Do you think I should live in the bell tower?" 403 sat on the ground casually, then looked for something in the big cardboard box.

"Why the bell tower?" Caroline asked puzzledly.

"Notre Dame de Paris, the ugly man living in the bell tower." 403 seemed to have found what he was looking for, so he stood up, looked at Caroline and said: "Haven't you seen it? Then I suggest you Go check it out.”

Caroline shook her head.

403 didn't say anything, but handed something in his hand to Caroline's hand, which was a USB flash drive. He said: "Here is the process of Hailey killing Livia, which can prove your innocence."

Caroline held the USB flash drive tightly in her hand and said in disbelief: "You...you have been watching?"

"It doesn't matter anymore." 403 shook his head. He sniffed his clothes. Maybe it was because it was stained with a lot of gasoline, and the smell was very strong.

403 began to take off his clothes. He planned to change his clothes, but he found that Caroline was not willing to leave at this time, so he stopped, "Let's go, the things inside are not fake, and they are not just for me to throw away casually." Your things. Moreover, we will never see each other again. Even if we see each other, you will not know who I am."

Caroline hesitated.

403 had already taken off his shirt and found a new one. Seeing Caroline's expression, he took out a video camera from the large paper bag, "Don't believe it? Don't believe it. If so, just watch it here.”

Caroline nodded, took the camcorder, inserted the USB flash drive, and started watching. She glanced at 403. It seemed that apart from the wounds on his face, he had few wounds on his body except for one.

There were strips of scars on his chest, as if he had been stabbed by something.

The video that was opened suddenly heard the sound of screaming... It was the sound of Livia screaming! The shooting angle was probably in the corner of the wall, and this was probably a lens installed secretly.

The moment she saw Hailey's ferocious appearance, Caroline almost closed her eyes, unable to bear to watch the scene of Livia being killed... She suddenly turned off the image.

But 403 was gone. The door to the pump room was open and he had left.

…

…

It took a long time to put out the fire that broke out on campus. It was already dawn, but the fire trucks had not left yet. Many students began to rush to the scene of the fire and took out their mobile phones.

It won't be long before the campus network will be filled with discussions about this fire.

"I heard that three bodies were found."

"Well, I saw it. When it was taken out, it was already burnt to char and was unrecognizable at all."

"If you want to check, you can still find it, right?"

"God knows how long it will take? By then the murderer may have been at large..."

Listening to the students' chatter, Caroline lowered her head and left. She went back to take a look because she was worried...but for the time being, it seemed to be safe.

However, the number of students who rushed to the scene to watch gradually increased. Caroline was walking with her head down among the crowd, but she suddenly saw a woman.

Holding the book, probably preparing to go to class, he just looked at the crowd from a distance, looking at the small auditorium that had been burned by fire... this woman.

It's Lucas's girlfriend, the woman on the picture found in the closet.

Caroline hesitated for a moment, but finally walked over. She pretended to be relaxed and asked beside the woman: "Hey!"

"You are..." The girl looked at Caroline in confusion.

"Nothing, I just want to ask you if you know what's going on here?" Caroline smiled.

The girl shook her head and didn't care about other people's chats. "I'm just here too. I don't know what happened. I have to rush to class. Why don't you ask others?"

With that, he said goodbye and turned to leave.

Caroline suddenly patted the girl on the shoulder and asked her to stop, "Hey, what's your name? I seem to have seen you somewhere."

"Oh...really." The girl looked at Caroline with some surprise, "Maybe, maybe somewhere. The school is not big, maybe I have seen it before."

"Let me think about it." Caroline seemed to be thinking really seriously, "Oh... I remember, you and your boyfriend, I have met... I know your boyfriend, he seems to be called Lucas’s, right?”

"Are you Lucas's friend?" The girl frowned.

Caroline shrugged and said, "No, I just know the name. I haven't seen him a few times. Speaking of which, it seems like I haven't seen him for a long time. How is he lately?"

The girl shook her head and said: "Then you should ask his tutor. He should be interning in a pharmaceutical company now and has not been back to school for more than two months. Also, we broke up long ago."

"Pharmaceutical company?" Caroline was stunned and said subconsciously: "How is that possible? He shouldn't be dead...did I say missing?"

"Okay!" The girl looked at Caroline, "Listen, I don't know who you are or what your relationship is with Lucas. But I can tell you clearly that Lucas and I are done. . Please tell him not to harass me with these little tricks again! And don’t give me flowers anymore!”

"He...he gave you flowers?"

"Last week, during class, outside the classroom door! Oh my God, I was dressed like a turkey. It was too ugly, wasn't it? It just caused trouble for me!" The girl shook her head, "I'm sorry, I have to go to class."

"wait……"

Looking at the back of the girl who left quickly...Caroline stood stunned on the spot, 403 If it wasn't Lucas, who would he be?

Caroline suddenly felt a headache, and a picture flashed in her mind... It was something she had 'seen' before.

‘Arno’ was stabbed in the body with a knife in the forest.

That scene of struggling in the water...

Caroline closed her eyes, but suddenly opened them. She suddenly remembered the long wound on 403's body.

"who are you……"

Suddenly, Caroline felt that no matter who 403 was, it didn't seem to matter anymore. What mattered was that she seemed to have escaped from this troublesome vortex.

Caroline left the university with some ease. Outside the school gate, Caroline wanted to find a taxi, but when she touched her clothes, she found that there was no Ying Bi on her body.

She couldn't help but smile bitterly, feeling that she had never been so poor...but it didn't seem to be particularly uncomfortable.

Caroline took a deep breath, but felt like there was something in her trouser pocket. She took it out and took a look, and found that what was inside was actually that kind of bank card.

She found a money withdrawal machine nearby and looked at the balance on it. Caroline found that there was no shortage of money in it... Arnold seemed to have not touched it since he got the card.

In a daze, Caroline called a taxi. When the driver asked her where she was going, Caroline hesitated for a while and then whispered: "Let's go to the hospital."

…

In front of the ward door, Caroline hesitated for a moment, and finally pushed the ward door open.

But she didn't see Nia here, a woman who was seriously ill. The bed was so neat and tidy, as if no one had ever slept there.

Caroline felt confused and stopped a nurse in the corridor and asked, "Where is the woman living here? Why is Nia missing?"

She might have... the worst outcome.

"Oh? Are you talking about her? She was discharged from the hospital two days ago." The nurse said casually.

"Discharged?" Caroline felt incredible: "How could she be discharged? Isn't she about to die and waiting for life-saving surgery? Did she give up?"

"Who said that?" The nurse shook her head and said, "She has had the surgery a long time ago, and it was quite successful, right?"

"Impossible, she looks so weak, all she can see is her bones!"

"Which patient is not weak after a major operation?" The nurse shrugged, then pushed the cart away from Caroline: "Is there anything else? I have to deliver something."

Caroline shook her head subconsciously.

At this time, she felt someone tap her shoulder lightly. It was a man in a suit who was very formally dressed. He looked at Caroline and asked very politely: "Excuse me, are you Caroline xiǎo jiě" Yet?"

"Yes... who are you?" Caroline subconsciously became wary.

The man quickly said: "Don't get me wrong, I have no ill intentions towards you, Caroline xiǎo jiě. I'm waiting for you here on purpose. I've been waiting for you here early this morning. 'Southern Cross', do you remember it? ?”

"So what happened?"

"I think we can find a quiet place to talk about you being cheated." The man smiled slightly: "Is the coffee room downstairs okay? This is not the place to talk about things."

…

'Southern Cross'.

Caroline suddenly remembered the business card Mr. Aoife gave her. She thought that after calling it, the other party just treated her casually.

"According to your entrustment, our people quickly started to deal with your matter. Regarding the Livia murder case, from various information, we found some suspicious things, which should prove your innocence. Of course, if you want to handle this matter faster, we can do it without going through judicial procedures, it’s no problem, it depends on what you want.”

Caroline was startled.

The man added: "But while investigating your personal information, we also discovered another thing. That is, we found that Caroline xiǎo jiě you owe a huge sum of money, which you owed only recently. The other party It’s loan sharking.”

"Impossible! I haven't borrowed any money recently!"

"I think you have an impression of these two people." The man took out two pictures from the document bag in his hand. The people on them were Lawyer Carlo and Nia, but Nia's picture was the illness. The appearance before pouring.

"them……"

"Our people have detained these two people and asked them clearly from lawyer Carlo." The man said confidently: "This man is a liar. He is not a lawyer, but he knows a lot about the law. There has been a criminal record before. And this woman is his girlfriend. The documents you signed are not an entrustment agreement for the sale of real estate, but a contract to borrow money from private loans in your name, and the amount is quite large. .This is their confession, you can take a look."

Caroline looked at the information given by the other party for a long time before she gritted her teeth and said: "These two bastards!!!"

"In addition, when I captured Carlo and Nia, I also captured a guy. After asking, he seemed to be a subordinate of a person named Boston. Oh, there are so many, we also found the guy who was in the theater last time The fugitive who shot away during the memorial service solved a lot of trouble."

…

What is going on in this world?

It feels so unreal.

Caroline didn't know how she walked out of the hospital. She couldn't even remember what kind of mood she was in, and she came here immediately after escaping from the vortex of trouble.

She considered using the money on her bank card to treat Nia.

Whether it was compensation or something else, Caroline herself couldn't tell.

However, what makes her feel ridiculous is that whether it is Nia, whether it is Heliano or 403, she has been in a world of lies and traps for this period of time.

Looking at the busy road, Caroline suddenly smiled. Only then did she truly understand the true meaning of the words Nia called her to come to her that day.

"Caroline, you are a stupid woman," she said to herself.

On the street, Caroline suddenly didn't know where she was going. She suddenly lost all her goals, and in her arms was only wealth that no one else could imagine.

A strange young man walked up to Caroline at this time, pulled her and handed her a leaflet, and said very enthusiastically: "Xiao jiě, are you interested in learning about our organization? We can help you in various places. All major institutions offer formal degrees!”

Caroline was suddenly stunned. She read the flyer for a while and suddenly asked, "Can you make people smart?"

"Xiǎo jiě, knowledge can make people wiser." The young man said with a bright smile, "Perhaps, we can learn more about it in detail... Well, I don't know, xiǎo jiě, what is your current academic qualification?"

"I haven't read since I was little." Caroline shook her head.

"Uh... it doesn't matter. We still have a lot of courses here." The young man added: "Then, do you have any courses that you are particularly interested in? For example, what major is it?"

"I don't understand." Caroline still shook her head.

"This... this is a bit difficult to handle." The young man became a little embarrassed.

But Caroline smiled slightly at this time and said: "But, I am rich, I am very rich."

"I don't think this is a problem! xiǎo jiě! Please come with me, and I will tailor the most suitable course for you!" He pulled Caroline and walked inside.

Caroline took a deep breath. She didn't know why she suddenly made such a decision...but it seemed to feel good.

When entering the door, Caroline suddenly turned around, as if she felt someone was looking at her from behind.

But when she looked across the road, she didn't seem to see anything...or rather, she just saw a silhouette.

"Everything about you will return to its original trajectory."

…

…

In front of the club's negative three floors.

Even though he has most of the authority to buy and sell, he still cannot enter this door. Only the owner of the store is allowed to enter.

But the maid xiǎo jiě knew very well what was inside. It was an altar used to sacrifice everything.

In front of the door, the maid Xiao Jiě slowly held up something in her hands. It was a ball of dazzling light.

"The power of dimensional observation... I am making sacrifices here on behalf of my master." You Ye whispered softly: "In this way, the master will have enough time to maintain his vacation. After all, he only relies on a 'main god' The plan is still a bit unable to make ends meet..." (https:)
