canary dressed as a villain

Chapter 105 Illusion (2)

The nurse helped Hiiragi Yu up, her legs softened and she almost knelt on the ground again.

The people coming and going in the hospital corridor were all in a hurry, and the unfamiliar faces seemed to blur into one face in her eyes, which made her feel dazed again, feeling dizzy.

The nurse looked at Hiiragi Yu's face and frowned, "You should also pay attention to your body, the one with a bad complexion..."

The nurse helped her to sit on the chair again, then walked away mumbling with the document in her hand.

Hiiragi sat on the chair for a while, then slowly stood up.

Her legs were sore and limp due to prolonged immobility, and now she has recovered a little, but she still feels a little uncomfortable when walking.She leaned against the wall and looked at the ward from the small window. Her younger brother Hiiragi Sheng was lying quietly on the hospital bed by the window. The sunlight came in from the window and shone on his delicate face. For a while, he looked like a girl with long eyelashes. Curly again, other people's eyeliner and eyelashes are not as good-looking as his.

Hiiragi Yu pushed away from the ward and walked in.

The hospital bed next to his younger brother was empty. In fact, there was still someone there yesterday, but he was suddenly critically ill at night, and he never came back after being pushed out.

Early this morning, all the things belonging to the child in the ward were taken away.

That's right, there is also a little boy living in the hospital bed next door, seven or eight years younger than his brother, but that child is precocious, quiet, not noisy, and looks much better than his brother, although her brother is also obedient Sensible, but still have some small emotions in front of this dependent sister.

The two children became friends at some point. The child seemed to like Hiiragi Sheng very much, and he ignored everyone, only talked to him, and told Hiiragi Yu that he would help her take care of her younger brother when he recovered.

It's a pity...that child was only in his teens, so he just disappeared.

Hiiragi Yu sat by the bed, looked at her brother's sleeping face for a while, and left a note by the bed, planning to go back to cook for him and bring a change of clothes.

She would do this every time she left Hiiragi Sheng's side. Although his younger brother was born stupid, he was not illiterate. He even went to elementary school, but his learning was too slow, and he couldn't understand many things at all, unlike normal children. The difference is obvious.

Because of the environment in which Hiiragi grew up, he feels relatively insecure. Every time Hiiragi had to leave him, he would leave a note for him, worrying that he would be scared when he woke up.

The moment he walked out of the hospital, Hiiragi Yu looked at the familiar crowd in a hurry and the tall buildings and buildings in front of him, and a few chaotic fragments suddenly flashed in his mind.

The thought was too fast for her to grasp, leaving only residual melancholy.

She felt that she had slept for too long and slept too deeply, as if she had forgotten something, but she thought through her mind, and there was no more picture flashed by.

Hiiragi walked slowly to the nearest bus stop. She was already familiar with this road. She moved here with her younger brother for three years. Except that she had to go to work outside at the beginning, and later became full-time, she was home almost every day. Two points and one line to the hospital.

Hiiragi Yu leaned against the bed, looking at the slowly receding scenery outside, she didn't know what happened to herself today, she was always in a trance, could hardly control her brain, and kept wandering.

Until the vibration of the mobile phone in the pocket of the jacket woke her up, she hurriedly unzipped the pocket and answered the phone.

Her voice was hoarse, as if she hadn't spoken for a long time.

"Hey?"

"Is it Hiiragi? Tomorrow is due date, do you remember?"

Hiiragi Yu's throat seemed to be blocked by bloody smell, and he agreed with difficulty, "I remember."

"How is your manuscript prepared?"

The other party asked with concern.

"It will definitely be handed over tomorrow, don't worry."

……

Hiiragi Yu put down his phone, got out of the car by the crowd, and started walking towards his home.

It should be considered a home, a home that really belongs to her and her younger brother, where they don’t have to continue to be displaced, don’t need to continue to be dependent on others, a place where only they live and can accommodate them to live freely in a small and narrow rented house without being scorned all the time .

Hiiragi Yu cherishes this place very much, because she really doesn't know where to find another suitable place in a short time after leaving.

The bus station is four or ten minutes away from Hiiragi Yu's house. She walks slowly, thinking while walking, which is her usual habit.

Most of the time, she can't think clearly. After all, people only think when they are confused, and when they have feelings, but not every time they think, they can get results, and even often they just keep their brains in a state of chaos. state, but this state makes her feel very comfortable, only in this time, she is free from all the pressure of reality, this time she is free, a rare moment of freedom.

It's just that there are not many times when you are free like this.

Even if Hiiragi Yu is used to walking this road, every time he walks, he still feels very far away, but because he is used to it, even if he complains, he can calm down, and even if he is tired from walking, he can act as if nothing happened.

After all, this is a rare time to be calm. When you are on the road, the goal seems to be clear, but everything is not conclusive. This time is actually the most relaxed and free.

When going upstairs, Hiiragi Yu felt a heaviness, not only the heavy steps, but also the heart.

She lived on the highest floor, the seventh floor, in a house in the old town. Naturally, there would be no elevator here. After all, if there were an elevator, she would not choose to live in it, after all, she really couldn't afford that price.

Everyone who lives here naturally thinks this way, so even if they are suspected of violating the building, no one will go to trouble. They were going to stare at the man fiercely in comparison.

Landlords are not charitable, nor have they ever dreamed of doing so.

With the elevator, the rent will naturally rise, so they will not mention it in front of the landlord.

Hiiragi is especially afraid of the landlord, not only the aggressive woman who sweeps the broom every day and washes the mop in the narrow stairwell, but also the gloomy man with an uncomfortable smile.

He always stares at Hiiragi Yu with that wrinkled face and talks to her, smelling of alcohol all over her body, she feels that she will start to be out of breath five meters away from him, but what can be done?They live on the second floor, and they can hear the screams of the pair of children running up and down every day, especially his eyes that scan his whole body, making Hiiragi Yu expressionless every time he passes by, wishing that he is a dead person, or he become a dead man.

But what can she do?

The man didn't have a job, he lived on several houses owned by his father-in-law, and waited to collect the rent every day. Except for going out to buy wine and drink, he stayed at home almost every day, and when he was bored, he moved a bench and sat by his door, I don't think the stairwell is cramped and smelly, of course, the place where he has him is the worst smell, but all the women from the second floor and above in this building never go out in skirts, not even dresses.

Hiiragi Yu doesn't have this problem. After all, she rarely wears skirts, and wears a jacket all the year round. She can handle it in spring, autumn and even winter. She can wear cheap trousers for a season, and she rarely goes out anyway.

But when Hiiragi Yu passed by, he still saw that person.

The landlord's husband is Hu Gang, a jobless vagrant whose biggest hobby is drinking. When Yu Yu passed by the door of his house, he could smell the smell of alcohol, and it was said that he was sitting there at this time.

Ever since Hiiragi appeared and he found her figure, those cloudy eyes have been staring straight at her. No one would look at such eyes without being afraid, because they are a pair of ignorant, disgusting, and desperado Eye.

Living in this world, he is a moth of the society. When others see him, he hides away. He knows it himself, but he doesn't reflect on it.

Hiiragi Yu is also afraid, she is not afraid for a moment.

Especially now that the sky is already a little dark, every time this time comes, she will be so frightened that her body becomes stiff.

"Your brother is in the hospital again?"

The man grinned his yellow teeth, and the unpleasant taste in his mouth spread for three meters. Hiiragi Yu held his breath almost instinctively, and nodded.

She passed him and continued upstairs.

The stairway was too narrow, almost walking in front of him, Hiiragi Yu was stiff all over, but he still walked up step by step, and did not turn back when he heard the sound of the chair retreating.

She heard feet stepping up the stairs, and then one of the doors on the second floor opened and hit the man in the back.

Except for the landlord's family, almost no one sat at the door, because it would prevent others from going upstairs, and even if he sat outside, he could only lean against the door of his own house. There was only such a small space.

At this moment, the voice behind... was the door of his house opened.

Hiiragi Yu walked to the corner of the stairs at this time, glanced down from the corner of her eye, and was facing the unkempt woman who came out.

She didn't know how long she had been nesting on the sofa, her messy hair stood up, fluffier than a chicken coop, piled on that oily face.

When Hiiragi Yu looked down.She didn't look up, and scolded the man sitting outside the door with a loud voice. The man was not to be outdone, and pushed her into the door, talking in a very impatient tone.

It is true that Hiiragi Yu has no interest in their facts, as long as they don't come to provoke her, as long as they don't step into her door, she closes the door, even if the noise outside is loud, she still feels that she is still so A free place where she can take a breath and live on her last breath, and live with her brother.

But how can everything in the world be as you wish? It is a lucky thing to live a safe and happy day, but it happens that Hiiragi Yu may belong to that unfortunate one.

The manuscript will be handed in tomorrow, so Hiiragi may not be able to go to the hospital tonight. She has found a nurse who can take care of Hiiragi for a while. She must rush to finish the manuscript as soon as possible. After all, she has no way to let go of every possible money.

Hiiragi packed up the clothes that he would bring to Hiiragi tomorrow and put them on the shoe cabinet at the door, then went back to his room, picked up a pen and started to draw.

Fortunately, the last part of the line draft has basically come out, and there are general ideas, but it takes time to complete all these, and then carefully check and send it out.

When she is painting, she is used to dimming the light. It seems that only in this way can she ignore this narrow rental house and the messy things around her, and enter the empty and free spiritual world, where she can see those gorgeous and shocking pictures , and describe it.

Even in the middle of the night, the environment is still very noisy.

The neighbor here is really bad. She was sitting by the window on the seventh floor, and she could even clearly hear the conversations of pedestrians passing by downstairs. I don't know if it's past one o'clock. What else can they come out to chat in the middle of the night.

Fortunately, most of the children have fallen asleep, and there is no such sharp shouting anymore. They are always so excited and play so happily, but the sound they make is just noisy.

But mostly quiet.

When Hiiragi Yu was creating, part of the time was very immersed in it, and she could completely ignore the surrounding environment, but sometimes when she was awakened from this state, she would be very sensitive to the wind and grass around her.

For example, when she heard the sound of the door, she immediately pricked up her ears and put her whole body on alert.

Hiiragi Yu sat in her bedroom, facing the bed, there was a desk, a huge desk, above which was her working area.

She slowly turned off the lights, and stood behind the wall without slippers.

Except for the bathroom, the two small bedrooms in this rental house have no doors. Once you enter, the place next to the wall is the dining table, and the front is used as the kitchen. There are two bedrooms and a bathroom on the left and right. There is no dedicated bathroom, and the shower is in the bathroom. There is not even a wet and dry separation.

As for things like doors, they are really redundant to take up space.

Therefore, Hiiragi Yu couldn't even close the door at this time, and could only stand behind the wall, in the darkness, and listen to the movement of the door quietly.

In the dead of night, this movement is particularly obvious, but the other party does not seem to have thought that Hiiragi Yu can stay up until four o'clock, which is impossible for most young people who like to stay up late. Even at this time, it should be that they fell asleep not long ago. When falling into a state of deep sleep, nothing can be shaken at this time, even if a sharp alarm rings in the ear, there are many people who turn over and continue to sleep.

The person at the door obviously didn't think about it either, so even though they had lightened their movements, it was still obvious in the silent darkness.

Hiiragi is someone who pays close attention to even the slightest movement. Such an obvious movement made her tense up. She poked her head out to take a look and found that the movement was still outside the door. She hesitated for a moment, barefooted. Taking a slight step back, he picked up his phone from the table and called the police.

While dialing the phone, Hiiragi frantically pressed the mute button, for fear that people outside would hear the noise.

The phone was connected, but she couldn't speak because... the door was already open.

She gently put the phone into her pocket, leaned her back against the wall, and stood quietly in the darkness.

Her eyes were fully adapted to the dark light, and she could vaguely see the outlines of everything with moonlight streaming in from the window.

But she didn't need to look anymore, just by the smell that wafted in, she knew who was outside.

At four o'clock in the morning, he opened the door of the girl who lived alone with the key he got at some time. If he was said to be innocent, Hiiragi would never believe it.
