Li Ang looked at the wooden ceiling and said calmly, "What''s the situation?"A few seconds ago, he was still standing on the steps with Dong Fengpo,

    looking towards the corridor on the second floor.Suddenly, a tile on the ground under Li Ang''s feet suddenly sank, and he

    subconsciously raised the triangular bone spear, trying to lay the gun body

    horizontally to block the fall.However, the speed of the fall was far beyond his imagination. Li Ang fell

    into the dark space under the collapsed tiles before he even shouted.Immediately, I saw myself flying across a wooden door, entering a bedroom, and

    planting smoothly and lightly into a huge and heavy cylindrical metal

    instrument.The metal cylinder is 2.5 meters long, hollow inside, and the cavity is nearly

    one meter in diameter, enough to accommodate an adult male.Under the metal cylinder, there is a bracket also made of metal.Li Ang''s body was firmly trapped in the cylindrical instrument, with his neck

    and head exposed, resting on a rusty metal plate extending from the front of

    the metal instrument.It looked like it was lying in a cylindrical metal coffin.As someone else, he must have been struggling in a panic and at a loss, trying

    to break free from this metal coffin.However, Li Ang didn''t panic at all. After realizing that he was not in danger

    for the time being, he moved his body, changed a more comfortable lying

    position, turned his neck, and called Miss Chai in his heart, "Chai Chai, what

    did you see just now?""As you can see, the ground is sunken, and you are flying horizontally into

    the house."Chai Cuiqiao paused, looked at the slowly closed wooden door in the corner of

    the room, and said, "The outside of this room is a corner of a horizontal

    corridor-it doesn''t look like a corridor on the second floor.The house is weird, the gravity is abnormal, and the spatial structure is also

    abnormal. ""Ok."Li Ang nodded, turning his neck resting on the metal plate left and right, and

    glanced at the room, "Book shelves, small desk, piano, cloth dolls...this

    place used to be a children''s room.To be precise, it is the room of a child patient suffering from polio"Chai Cuiqiao was taken aback when he heard the words, "Polio? How do you

    know?"Li Ang didn’t answer. He moved his hands trapped in the cylindrical metal

    instrument, groping back and forth in the hollow cavity of the metal cylinder,

    and quickly found the valve device.Li Ang twisted the valve, and the front end of the cylinder that restrained

    his neck slowly opened from the right side, allowing Li Ang to slide into the

    cylinder. After the door at the front of the instrument was completely opened,

    he crawled out of it.After Li Ang stood firmly on the floor, he patted a lot of dust on his body,

    tapped the metal cylinder instrument with his knuckles, and said calmly, "This

    machine looks a bit like a tea stir-frying machine. The "Iron Lung" is an

    instrument invented to rescue polio patients.Polio has existed since ancient times. Because the patient’s muscles are weak

    and it is difficult to mobilize the respiratory muscles, the patient often

    died of breathing difficulties and respiratory failure.In the 17th century, a British scientist put forward the idea of ??applying

    negative pressure from the outside to promote breathing based on the principle

    of breathing motion.Until the 1930s, there was a boom in the design of negative-pressure prototype

    breathing muscles in the United States. Among them, there was an instrument

    called iron lung, which artificially created a negative pressure environment

    to assist patients in breathing.In the 1940s and 1950s, iron lungs were everywhere in hospitals across the

    United States, and the lifeline of tens of thousands of polio patients.However, with the advent of the polio virus vaccine and a truly effective

    treatment for polio, the iron lung has withdrawn from the stage of history. "Li Ang glanced at the degree of rust on the surface of this instrument, and

    said calmly: "If the background of this script mission is the modern earth, it

    must be around the 1920s, 1930s, or later.""Uh,"Miss Chai''s eyes widened, "You know that too..."Li Ang paused, and gently scraped the iron lung with his fingers, and said

    calmly, "I had a friend before, and he was suffering from this disease. For

    this reason, I specifically went to learn about the history of this type of

    disease."Li Ang did not disclose the specific information of the friend, but Miss Chai

    automatically brained and knew in her heart-Li Ang came out of the

    orphanage...She said awkwardly: "...I''m sorry.""It''s okay."Li Ang patted Iron Lung casually, stretched his muscles and bones, walked

    straight to the door of the children''s bedroom, and opened the door.Outside the door is a dark corridor with a very strange structure. The

    corridor is sometimes narrow, sometimes spacious, sometimes rising, sometimes

    falling.A suspended wooden door is set where the window should be, and a translucent

    window is set where the door should be."It''s like taking hundreds of houses apart and then putting them together

    again."Li Ang said silently in his heart, instead of stepping into the corridor, he

    returned to the house, closed the door, and searched for the children''s

    bedroom in a hurry."Eh, don''t you go find your teammates?" Miss Chai asked softly."Yes, but it''s not necessary." Li Ang shook his head and replied: "Just now I

    was on the first floor stairs and did nothing, so I was forcibly teleported

    here by the agency.With my strength, I didn’t even react to what happened just now.I have reason to believe that several other teammates may also receive the

    same teleportation treatment at the same time.This kind of manor covers a large area, and the house structure is weird. Now

    looking for them scattered everywhere will only waste precious mission time.You know, there are eight abnormal organs that need to be resolved.And even if it is found, it is in vain not to find a way to find the source of

    the transmission effect. "As Li Ang explained, he took the tactical flashlight from his tactical belt

    and scanned the whole room.Although his cat’s eyes and low-light infrared night vision devices can be

    used for night vision,But there will be a lot of color missing in the line of sight, in case

    something is missing because of the lack of color, it will be bad.With the help of Miss Chai''s eight arms, Li Ang quickly searched the entire

    children''s bedroom and found no special items.The books on the shelves are all English fairy tales, and judging from the

    printing time, it is no later than the end of the 1930s."The owner of the room should be a 7-10 year old girl with polio. This is not

    her master bedroom, but more like a small room for play and entertainment. Her

    parents treat her very well, I spent a lot of money to customize an iron lung

    for her."Li Ang said in a deep voice: "At that time, the price of an iron lung was as

    high as $2,000, which was enough to buy an ordinary residential house in the

    1920s and 1930s.Combined with this rather expensive piano, it can be judged that the owner of

    the room has a good family background and should be one of the direct

    descendants of the owner of Williams Manor.And her polio is not particularly serious, at least she can play the piano or

    something. "Most parts of the room have been searched, and the only place that has not

    been checked is...Li Ang''s eyes lit up, he raised his flashlight and crawled back into the iron

    lung.Since it has been in a semi-sealed state~~ the rust marks

    inside the iron lung are not so serious.After searching carefully, Li Ang really found a yellow and dry piece of paper

    in a corner of the front end of the cylinder.He crawled out of the iron lung and placed the note under the light. The

    content of the note read:"Alice, to listen to Margaret, I hope you will always be healthy and safe-

    loving your mom and dad."The moment Li Ang saw the paper, a flower appeared in front of Li Ang''s eyes,

    and the stale floor under his feet was renewed. A warm light shone in from the

    window, and the decaying room was revived.A silver bell-like laughter rang, and a blond little girl in an elegant skirt

    phantom fell out of the void, sitting on the floor of the newly renovated

    room, smearing on the children’s fairy tale book with a pen, graffiti and

    laughing happily. .And sitting next to her was an adult woman who looked a bit like her."This is... a reenactment of the room''s past scenes?"
