"Are you asleep?"

"Brother, I...I can't sleep."

"Is it too noisy outside?" The boy sat up, rubbed his hands to warm them up, gently comforted the little girl in his arms, and hugged her tightly.

This wasn't the first time he'd done this tonight. "I can't hear you, I can't hear you." He covered the little girl's ears with his hands and sighed.

There was a fight in the distance, the screams and wailing of the crowd and the sound of steel pipes colliding with each other continued to spread into the ears of the two.

It sounds pretty creepy.

In fact, the tragedy there is far away from the two of them, so there is no need to worry about being affected, but these voices in the claustrophobic tunnel can still be heard by them, as if they are very close to the two of them.

The main reason is this atmosphere, which explodes like thunder.

But the battle didn't last long.

A few minutes later, the little girl fell asleep slowly, and the night fell into a deadly silence again, except for the occasional 'click' of water droplets.

It could be blood too...

Because you can smell a strong smell of blood.

The piercing sound of the train whistle came from far and near.

"urn!"

In the dark and deep tunnel, the iron hub turned up and down, and the dull "clang clang" sound rose and fell rhythmically in the ear, like the roar of a wild beast, with the momentum that seemed to swallow everything.

"Damn it!" Ling Ci cursed, looking at the rushing train at the end of the tunnel, the entire tunnel illuminated by the two headlights at the front was like daytime.

Lingci quickly pulled the blanket covering his body to cover the little girl's head.

But it happened at this time.

"urn!"

The train whistle sounded again, and due to the close distance, the ear-piercing whistle entered Ling Ci's ears and made his eardrums ache.

But Ling Ci didn't care about himself at all, cold sweat leaked from his forehead, and he looked at the little girl in his arms in a panic.

Don't let her be woken up!

Lingci hurriedly covered the little girl's ears with the fastest speed, put his thumb against her back earlobe, curled his index finger into a spiral shape, and clenched them tightly to ensure that she could not hear any sound from the outside world.

With the roar and scream of the train, it gradually went away.

After a few more seconds, the surroundings fell into silence again.

"Hoohoo!"

Lingci let go of his hand, panting heavily.

His gaze had been on the little girl, but fortunately, she only frowned slightly and was not woken up.

"Why did the last train come so early today?"

Lingci looked down at the watch with a faint blue light, and frowned.

11.37 minutes

"A full 23 minutes earlier than usual."

A few minutes later, looking at the sleeping little girl beside her, Lingci carefully pulled away from her body, took off her coat, and used it as a pillow to place where she had just laid her head.

He stood up, rubbed his uncomfortable ears, and looked at the tunnel where the train just passed.

The tunnel is oval in shape, with reinforced concrete intertwined with various cable ducts, and the walls are covered with dense screw holes. Although many screws have broken out, it seems to be a tight fit for such a large project.

Except where Lingci and the two were hiding.

It used to be an automatic toll station with an area of ​​20 square meters. It was gradually abandoned after the railway line was taken over to the public and became a dedicated line.Then the pipes were laid, the cables were built, and the small house was wrapped up like a puff pastry, and finally disappeared from people's sight.

It may be discovered by people on the train, but after being transformed by Lingci, this place has completely become a real secret base. Unless the two make loud noises, it is impossible for anyone to notice Here, there is only one way to enter here from the outside world - an abandoned drainage pipe.

This was discovered by Lingci by accident.

After confirming that the girl was fast asleep, Lingci looked down at his watch.

11.45 points.

He casually picked up the hammer hanging on the wall, which was still stained with mottled rust, and softly untied the thick hemp rope tied to the railing.

'click'

The iron gate opened slowly, and the strong smell of rust and gasoline came to the face. The dense pipelines were like creepers on the wall, enclosing the entire underground passage. If it wasn't for the extremely thick iron pipe passing through, there would be no place here at all. There is no place to set foot on.

"Time is running out."

He ran forward along the pipeline, with a small LED light glowing blue above his head, and two hideous black rails under his feet.

11.52

"It's still three minutes away."

As he ran, he observed the scene in the tunnel through the gap in the pipe under his feet.

Under the illumination of the LED lights with a cold halo in the tunnel, the rolling dragon-like railway looks like two black-scaled boa constrictors.

It's just that some sections of the road are twisted and twisted, just like the body of a poisonous snake being attacked and curled up together. Lingci called them 'strange rails'.

In fact, Lingci also had doubts before. It is obviously easier and safer to go straight. Why do you have to cultivate like this?No matter how awesome the driver is driving this thousand-ton behemoth, isn't he afraid of overturning?

And there is more than one such curved road section, there are six in the tunnel part where he is.

And the curved shape is exactly the same, so every time the train passes by here, it will slow down a little bit, and it will make a piercing squeaking sound of rubbing the subway wheels when going around the bend.

Every time Lingci heard this voice, he couldn't help but kick the train over through the iron fence.

When passing the third strange rail, Lingci slowed down.

"It's getting closer."

The smell of blood is getting stronger.

The hammer in his arms was taken out, and he felt the heavy touch in his hand, and Lingci's eyes became as sharp as eagle hooks.

He carefully observed everything around the railroad tracks below, hunched over, and assumed a vigilant posture.

Following his gaze, there was a black thing lying on the railroad track less than ten meters away from him.

Because the distance was too far, and the faint blue light was too weak, Ling Ci could only distinguish a rough shape.

That's a human corpse.

"Only one?"

Lingci was right above the corpse at this time, and the pipe was almost five or six meters away from the rails below.

He observed for a while, and saw that the other party hadn't made any movement, so he breathed a sigh of relief, put the hammer back into his waist, then leaned forward and jumped down.

He squatted down and looked up.

The corpse was about 40 years old, the skin was sallow, and it looked a little malnourished. The clothes on the body were also stained with blood, the head was sunken, and the brains were flowing all over the floor. It was too dead to die.

Lingci blocked his nose with a towel, and rummaged through the corpse, suppressing his nausea.

Pockets, cuffs, soles, socks, collar seams...

Not a dime.

"Another poor man!" Ling Ci spat, then lifted the collar of the man, who was lying on the rails, and pulled him back.

The rails are so smooth that it is not difficult to walk like this.

He quickened his pace, leaving a pool of blood on the rails.

He never worried whether these bloodstains would be discovered, because people died almost every day here, and judging from the brutal sound of the fighting just now, this time it was definitely not the only one who died.

It's just that this corpse is the closest to him. If you go any further, there will definitely be another...or even more.

And the most convenient way to dispose of the body is to leave it in this tunnel with no entrance - the train goes by.

'Urn' - Suicide by lying on the rails.

Maybe the driver who drives this bus every day is no longer surprised. After all, in this kind of place, who cares about other people's lives?

No one feels that he is not a poor person, so who would feel sorry for a poor person?

The same is true for Lingci, so he couldn't help but scolded the poor man at the corpse just now, and even showed a disgusted expression on his face.

After a while, one person and one corpse stopped.

"Ten minutes left."

Lingci gasped heavily, but he didn't stop.He looked down at his watch from time to time, looking anxious.

He first dragged the body aside, against the wall, then took off his coat, shoes... and finally left him completely naked.

He patted the wall, and a rope fell from the top of his head. He tied the rope around the neck of the corpse, and then walked across the railway track to the other side of the tunnel, where there were several protrusions. climbed up.

After catching the naked corpse, he breathed a sigh of relief, leaning against the wall, his chest heaving up and down quickly as if being dragged by someone.

jingle.....

jingle.....

The blue light of the watch will automatically light up, and a small reminder sound will be issued.

This is the alarm clock for midnight.

His heart tightened, he sat up, held his breath, sweat dripped from the tip of his nose to the corner of his mouth.

'patta'

dripping to the ground.

'Sasa Sha'.....

Behind him, rustling sounds came from inside the door, like a giant snake running through the grass, occasionally spitting out slender snake letters from its mouth.

Then, there was a crackle, the sound was very small, but very crisp.

Lingci held his breath completely, clasped his fingers together, and held it firmly.

soon.There is silence all around...

The densely packed small lights above the head also went out at this moment.

No breeze, no trains, no dead bodies, no sounds of fighting...

Inside the door, a voice sounded again:

"Brother, I'm hungry."

"Can I eat you...?"
