flower and big devil

Luo Xiu threw away the plate in his hand, and hurriedly ran all the way to the kitchen door—he really was running all the way, but when he opened the door and said "I'll go with you too", , I took a closer look and found that there was no one outside the door since I don't know when...

It seemed that Uzrock, the panicked nun, and the angry security guard who were standing outside the door and talking just a second ago all suddenly disappeared out of thin air. Goosebumps, the brunette young man shivered slightly.He blinked blankly, faced the empty corridor, and after a few seconds of silence, he finally seemed to have made up his mind, opened the kitchen door, and then walked along the corridor towards the direction of the main building Trot all the way...

At the corner of the corridor, Luo Xiu, who was in a hurry, bumped into a person—it felt amazing enough, as if you opened your arms and jumped at a piece of fat lard, which was soft and full of elasticity, and it would not exaggerate Bounce back a few steps, but at the same time, you will feel that your whole body is covered with sweaty lard, sticky and greasy.

Luo Xiu stepped back a few steps and stood on his heels. He subconsciously raised his sleeves and wiped his face. Then he lowered his head and looked expressionlessly at the whole person rolling a few times on the ground. He was trying to climb up from the ground. The fat man got up and stood up—after hesitating for a while, Luo Xiu stretched out his hand silently—then the pair of fat hands of the other party grabbed his hand without hesitation——Luo Xiu was sure that he I heard a disturbing sound of "click" being pulled on my bones.

"Rick, what are you doing here in such a panic?" Pulling the fat man up to stand up, the black-haired young man immediately withdrew his hand and asked politely and unfamiliarly.

"I-I'm sorry to bump into you." Rick raised his head, his eyeballs, which seemed to be the size of mouse eyes, rolled around, he looked flustered, and licked his lips with the tip of his tongue, "But I can't help it - the break room is a mess, the smell of blood is everywhere, the smell makes me want to vomit... I can't help it, but Alicia told me to come to you to solve everything, you can Right those wrongs and make things right again, oh my god, Alice, can you?"

Luo Xiu frowned: "What are you talking about? What is wrong?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't make it clear! My friend—that's Harley who loves to dance, he's crazy!" Rick said here, and he let out a loud cry, "I think he probably Some kind of demon, or bewitched by a demon at all - he attacked the other patients, yes, oh, I saw him attack - the others thought it was Hart who bit Borja's head first Ears... actually not, before that, Ike Hari attacked his face first, I, I thought they were kissing at first, and I was very shocked at the time..."

"The patient who was attacked was called Borja?"

"Yes," Rick rubbed his hair irritatedly, "he is my friend and Ike Hari - a friend we made after entering Buddha Lomen, we have a good relationship, but not yet To the point where I don't think I need to be surprised to see him kiss Ike Hari, I mean - oh, I don't mean - anyway - oh my god, I was jealous back then , I’m always not confident enough,... from the beginning to the end, they paid unilaterally. I thought about it. In the end, the only reason they treat me well is their pity for me—”Look at that bird Fat and poor fat man, he used to sing so well and looked so handsome, but now, he can only eat and eat with guilt, other than that, he can't do anything and can't go anywhere '..."

Luo Xiu felt that Rick's words sounded familiar.

But now he made the first fatal mistake of the day: he didn't take this matter to heart.

Almost all of his attention was attracted by the fact that "the source of infection has probably started to act".

At this time, Rick raised his head and looked at the beautiful black-haired young man standing silently in front of him with a broken face. He took a deep breath and widened his eyes in horror: "I immediately noticed that when they When the lips parted, the patient no longer had lips!"

Rick's words made Luo Xiu make a second fatal mistake: he believed Rick's words almost without doubt.

People are like this, when their conjecture has someone to prove it, it is easy to directly come to the idea of ​​"my guess is indeed correct", and before that, people whose focus and attention have been completely diverted almost It is difficult to realize the identity and position of the second person who "proves this conjecture".

But at the moment, Luo Xiu, who was completely immersed in some kind of irritability, just took out the handkerchief in his pocket and handed it to Rick to wipe it well-after all, the appearance of snot and tears is too ugly. After Rick took the handkerchief, he covered his face and blew his nose vigorously. The snoring sound made the corners of Luo Xiu's lips twitch. What's even more weird is that this guy wanted to dip the handkerchief after blowing his nose. The handkerchief full of sticky and transparent objects was returned to him, and the air seemed to freeze for a few seconds. After that, Luo Xiu felt that he had never shook his head so positively in his life.

Rick muttered and stuffed the handkerchief back into the pocket of his dirty blue robe: "Okay, then I'll wash it and return it to you."

Luo Xiu's scalp tingled: "No need! — Uh, I mean, you can keep it for yourself."

On the way to the main building, Rick told Luo Xiu about the tragedy in the common room at this time. According to Rick's description, the patient who was bitten came to Luo Xiu after he left the common room. It was probably hopeless when I called for help - it is said that blood was spilled everywhere, stimulated by such a strong smell of blood, the common room was in chaos, and many patients who were not aggressive on weekdays began to feel helpless. They attack the people around them differently. Their attacking methods are similar to those of the dancing rompers. They are all transformed into wild beasts—throw people down—and then bite directly.

In Rick's description, Luo Xiu had already worked hard to prepare himself mentally.

But when he pushed open the door of the common room, he still couldn't hold back a gust of acid water rushing up from his stomach against the esophagus.

He had imagined that the common room might be full of blood everywhere—but he never imagined that the degree of blood would be like what he saw now, almost everywhere was blood and pieces of meat, when Luo Xiu pushed open the door behind, On the back of the soft armchair closest to the door, there is a large piece of bright red stuff that looks like pork, dragging a long bloodstain all the way down...

The chess pieces of the old man who loves to play chess are still placed on the board, but the previous "White Queen" has been stained with "Red Queen" by the splashed blood.

The brisk music was still playing in the ancient music player, and the sound of the music did not stop, probably because few people had the leisure time to take care of such things at the moment—the sound of such cheerful music matched the tangled With the smell of blood, Luo Xiu only felt that his hearing, vision and sense of smell were forcibly divorced, and he was standing on one side of the Milky Way and looking at the other side.

As for the ability to think... Sorry, it's already dead to the core.

Stepping on the carpet, the blood bubbled up and then formed a bubble and exploded on the edge of the indoor shoe. There was a light "poof", and even a few drops of blood splashed onto the pure pair of Luo Xiu's feet. On the white shoes... the black-haired young man froze for a moment, then heard Sister Maria not far away screaming for him to stand where he was and not to go inside.

Luo Xiu blinked and raised his head, only to see Sister Maria's pale face, shaking hands, trying to cover a curtain on a person lying on the ground - that person is of course not very good, to be precise, The blood in the carpet under Luo Xiu's feet probably came from him—but Luo Xiu couldn't see who this unlucky guy was, because at this moment, the skin of this guy's face had been peeled off completely. , only the red muscles and the exposed black eye sockets are left-of course, the eyeballs are missing.

That appearance made Luo Xiu think of those skinned squirrels without much effort.

"Friend" is the key word.

"Hunger" is another keyword.

Because of "hunger", sacrificing "friends" to fill one's stomach is indeed the way of thinking of violent bears.

Ah, it seems not difficult to guess, this guy is probably the unlucky guy named "Borja" who made friends carelessly.The black-haired young man standing at the door who was entering and re-entering the common room added to the mess slightly narrowed his eyes. His gaze wandered around the room, and finally stopped at the young man who was being tied up in the corner of the lounge—he He looked very calm, even though the blood on his face almost turned him into a demon who had just climbed up from hell——Uzrok was standing by his side, and at this moment, he was slowly moving the Thick iron chains were bound around his body...

At the same time, Ike Hari was still able to raise his head and talk to Uzrok in a very calm manner.

Because it was too far away, Luo Xiu couldn't hear what they were saying at all.

He just saw Ike Harry's lips moving.

About 10 minutes later, because of this farce, all the patients—including those who were not aggressive for the time being—were shoved back into their rooms together.The rooms Luo Xiu and the others live in are all separate, with heavy and huge iron doors. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are single cells rather than "rooms"... Luo Xiu returned to his room honestly and washed his hands. In the sound of rushing water, he heard the middle-aged nun in charge of leading him tell him in a tense voice behind him that the next dinner will be distributed to them one by one by the nuns from the small window below All persons must remain in their rooms until the common room is cleared.

"Okay, Mother Teresa, do as you say."

Luo Xiu saw this middle-aged nun named De Lan reluctantly smiled at him because of his obedience.

——When the big iron door was closed heavily, there was no other entertainment in the room.The black-haired young man stared at the door for a while, then fell back on the bed, crossed his legs, closed his eyes and meditated while thinking about how to solve this matter... Blame him for being too procrastinating, and now the matter seems to have reached a certain point Seriously... Thinking of this, the black-haired young man who suddenly felt a little guilty opened his eyes, and then he decided that the next time this huge iron door opens, he will definitely seize the opportunity and use it as the "source of infection" "The dancing romper get rid of--

Then it's all over.

Thinking of this, Luo Xiu relaxed a little bit, turned over and lay down on the soft quilt unknowingly sleepy.

After sleeping in a daze for a while, Luo Xiu was woken up by a sudden loud noise from outside. It sounded like the sound of something collapsing - the black-haired young man was almost like a carp rolling and crawling out of bed He got up, squatted on the edge of the bed and spent half a minute clearing his mind, and then he heard the screams of patients from other rooms, and the nuns beat the door with whips angrily, telling them to shut up quiet voice.

It's like a zoo keeper and his animals.

The black-haired young man raised the corners of his lips, got out of bed and walked to the door. He leaned against the door, and when he heard someone walk in, he opened the small window on the iron door—as expected, he saw De Sister Lan was standing outside the door, bending over, trying to bring in the dinner tray through the small window under the door.

"Mother Teresa."

"What is it, Alice?"

Amidst the din, the conversation between the two seemed very peaceful and normal—across a door, the black-haired young man raised the corners of his lips soundlessly, and he knew that his quiet behavior at this moment made the middle-aged man The nun reminded her a little bit of her favorability.

That means he can get some different intelligence.

"What happened outside?" Luo Xiu yawned pretending to be sleepy, and asked in a lazily casual voice, "I was sleeping just now, and then I heard a loud noise, and then the other patients started screaming Woke up."

"The two rooms on the north side have collapsed, probably because of the two rains a few days ago." Mother Teresa said, "But don't worry, the cell over there is indeed in disrepair, but this side is being renovated It was re-reinforced at the time, and there will be no such problem--Master Uzrok is already on his way... Ike Hari's room collapsed severely, but it sounds like his people are fine, on the contrary It's Rick who lives next door to him, poor boy, and he's terrified by this sudden disaster."

"Huh? Is it their room?"

"Yes." Mother Teresa nodded, regardless of whether Luo Xiu saw it or not, she said slowly, "I always feel that Rick is too fragile and doesn't have many friends, but he is probably willing to do it for his friends." Giving everything—when Ike Harley's room next door had collapsed badly, he wept like a child, in fact, he almost forgot that he was in a bad situation, too."

"A bad situation?"

"Yes, the iron door is completely deformed and stuck in front, people inside can't get out, people outside can't get in, there is no gap at all." Mother Teresa said with a headache, "We borrowed the corresponding door from the city. Before lifting the equipment, tonight's dinner may be the last meal we can provide them - if the government's equipment cannot be allocated to the end, I suspect that it is very likely that they will be starved to death .”

"..."

"Poor Rick, he made almost no mistakes today, but he was punished one after another that was not so fair."

Luo Xiu lowered his head and glanced at the dinner delivered through the small window - thick soup, mashed potatoes, spaghetti Bolognese, three slices of garlic bread and a glass of water.

This is his dinner.

Now no matter how slowly he eats, no one will come to snatch it.

"If you need extra food, knock on your iron door," said the nun.

"I think these are enough, thank you, Mother Teresa." Luo Xiu replied.

He finished his sentence, and then felt that in the darkness, the nun probably gave him a friendly smile.

Then Luo Xiu took the dinner plate to the desk, and amidst the sound of knocking on the door asking for extra food, he slowly ate his portion of dinner—he almost felt so leisurely last time. It was almost a long time ago that he ate.

After dinner, some patients were allowed out for a walk in the courtyard.

There were not many of them, but most of them seemed to be extremely calm—at least patients with no problems in words and deeds—of course, Luo Xiu was among them.

He walked around the yard and saw Alicia, the old man who loves to play chess, and some old, weak, sick and disabled at other tables—really old, weak, sick and young men like Luo Xiu, he is alone.The old man who loves to play chess is holding his chessboard and cleaning the chess pieces one by one by the fountain, and his "wife Shasha" is on the chessboard; Alicia is sitting under the moonlight, and she seems hesitant to speak when she sees Luo Xiu , but before she came up to talk to him, the dark-haired young man had already unscrewed his head first; It's no different, and he doesn't seem to be secretly pleased that he got a special offer and went out for a walk.

Many patients with mental disorders, in most cases, look more like a taciturn normal person.

In fact, it was just because they were too caught up in the world they had constructed that no one knew except him.

Luo Xiu wandered outside for a while, and after he found that the nuns in charge didn't seem to care much about where they went, he took advantage of their chatting and quietly touched the stairs leading to the north room, and then, as if Like a ghost in the middle of the night, he ran up the stairs quickly and silently all the way.

In the corridor to the north, in the dim candlelight on the wet and cold walls, he could almost see the two "collapsed" rooms that the nuns called at a glance.

The innermost room was really serious, Luo Xiu even wondered if there was only one-third of the activity space left.The situation in the penultimate room was much better. Luo Xiu looked around the outside of the room for a while, because the load-bearing beams supporting the building were still there, and Luo Xiu felt that if the inside and outside were combined, he would actually save Rick from his room. It's not difficult.

He didn't know if Rick didn't know, or if he subjectively refused to do so.

"——I don't want to leave Ike Hari and leave him here alone."

Across a ruined wall, Rick's voice came softly: "Alice, although I envy you for taking a walk around when you are full, but as a friend, I can't leave Ike Hari alone. Suffering here while I enjoy it alone...in fact, the collapse created a gap in the middle of our room, and we could see each other through that gap."

When it came to this, the fat man laughed a few times inside.

Luo Xiu was silent, and was glad that the fat man inside couldn't see how embarrassing his expression was because of the collapsed ruins.

"Then what do you eat?" Luo Xiu asked, "If you're hungry... Tell me, Rick, you wouldn't do something like cut off your own flesh to feed your 'friend'. "

"Ike Hari has the habit of preserving food—remember the last time he fought with Jim? It's all because of his habit...so we can hold on for a while now. I ate a steamed bun for dinner and drank a lot of water , it’s okay for the time being.” Rick carefully lowered his voice through the wall, and he seemed to laugh happily, “I want to do something for Ike Hari, although he has become a bit strange recently ——But I guess friendship is like this, if it were him, he would not leave me here alone to suffer alone.”
