Doomsday city

Esther was completely isolated.

She was arranged to live in a guest room with locked windows. Except for the first day of communication, she did not see Red Scorpion or Lehman again. Only the silent maid who delivered the food would come under the door—the little gatekeeper who looked like a pet entrance. Pushing in, she couldn't talk to anyone except that she could only sit in a luxuriously decorated room facing the wall in a daze.

This afternoon, the locked door was finally opened.

"Miss Esther Eli," a group of soldiers with guns surrounded Esther from both sides, among them was an old man in a suit staring at her sternly like a poisonous snake, his arrogance never changing, "I am glad that Red Scorpion and Mr. Lehman has agreed that your friend will be treated as he is due and will be able to leave the house safely, but the final outcome is up to you..."

He pursed his lips, paused and said, "Coordination."

Butler Harris gestured with one hand, and the soldiers on both sides immediately held Esses's arms.

"Wait! What are you going to do!" Esses widened her eyes in horror, "What is the agreement you said? Where is the Red Scorpion? Let me talk to the Red Scorpion! I want to know what happened!" She struggled Twisting her body, Harris stepped forward and slapped her hard.

The crisp sound made the room instantly quiet.

"From now on, you are an 'object' rather than a 'person'. Be honest and be kind to everyone." Harris looked up and glanced at the soldier behind him, who immediately stuffed the cloth ball into Esther's mouth and taped it firmly. Take the woman away like a kidnapper.

The gloomy sky continued to drizzle, and Esses was taken out of the villa by the soldiers and Harris. They passed a withered rhododendron garden, and the gardening in disrepair was like a deserted cemetery in a horror movie. The rolling door is rusty, and the twisted iron plate is even sealed with thick tape, which looks extremely weird.

Harris was obviously a bit resistant to approaching. He took out a handkerchief from his chest and covered his nose, as if to prevent any odor or bacteria, and then quickly knocked on the iron garage door twice.The iron plate that was deliberately melted into the entrance and exit shook slightly, and the door opened a gap not long after.

"Harris?" An uncertain voice came from the darkness.

"Yes, Mr. Graceland, it's me, Martin Harris," the butler frowned impatiently, and pushed the false iron door, "I think Gina has already told you that she will bring new medicine today. Come here, open the door now, Mr. Gorgulam, I have no time to waste here."

"Oh, Gina seems to have said, wait! Don't let the sun in! Damn, those lights hurt my eyes! I don't want to be blinded, okay?" The man behind the door pushed the door back, rusty The screws made a harsh friction sound, "Let it come in by itself, I won't lock the door."

He uses 'it' instead of 'she'.

Harris covered his nose and took a deep breath, turned his head to the soldier with a blue face and said, "You all heard what Mr. Grampian said, let Miss Eli go in by herself."

Essus kept shaking her head, her sealed mouth could only make a weak protest, but she had no room for discussion.Harris grabbed the spear from the soldier and aimed it at her forehead, saying: "Don't play tricks, Miss Eli, if you have any kindness to your friends, just go in by yourself, we don't want anyone to get hurt, right? ?”

Like a pirate, Harris pushed Esther to the end of the plank, and she was dying.

The half-covered door opened a crack again, and there were small noises from the dark interior, like someone moving tables and chairs, and the small sound of utensils colliding.Staring at the slender gun barrel, Esses slowly backed away under the eyes of everyone, and every step she stepped on the wet grass seemed extremely heavy, until she touched the cold iron gate on her back.

"Your friend should really thank you for your sacrifice, Miss Eli." Harris sneered.

As soon as the words were finished, pale and thin arms sprang out from the crack of the door like snakes, grabbed Esses and dragged her into the door.

"It's a pity that they will never know the truth." Harris relaxed his frowning brows and smiled softly.

……

Being plunged into darkness for a moment made Essus bewildered.

She crouched in the corner like a frightened puppy and kept trembling. The dark space was filled with the pungent smell of some kind of potion. She tore off the tape on her mouth in a panic, spit out the cloth ball and took a quick breath.The constant sound of objects moving around her ears weakened her nerves, and suddenly a cold hand grabbed her hair with such force that it almost dragged Esses away.

"Let go of me! Let go! No! Don't!" She struggled brokenly, but the hand was holding on tightly like steel. The pain in her scalp made the corners of Esther's eyes glisten, and then she was crushed On the ground, a needle clearly goes into the upper arm, roughly injecting something.

"This will make you quieter." Ge Gulan's voice sounded in the darkness.

Essers turned over and beat the floor a few times. She tried to get up, but the strong dizziness made her lie on the ground in embarrassment.A pair of leather shoes passed by her ears quickly, and soon, she was picked up like a toy and laid flat on the wooden bed. There was still no light around, but after adapting to the darkness, she could vaguely see some shadows.

Ge Gulan walked to her side carrying a plate of utensils, and then Essers felt a tingling pain in her wrist.

"Wait, oh, wait!" The man murmured to himself in a panic, and in the next second he knocked over a coffee table exaggeratedly, and the glassware placed on it shattered instantly, but Ge Gulan didn't care at all, he trembled He ran away for a few seconds, took some things back to the bed, and then simply pulled Esses's arm.

"Oh! My... my..." Ge Gulan stammered in horror, "God!"

Essers found a trace of pain from the dizziness, which was quickly magnified, and the pain made her almost out of breath.Ge Gulan looked at his toy excitedly like a child receiving a Christmas present, and proceeded to 'destroy' it.

"Tell me it's not a dream! God... I thought it was a joke when I heard it, but I didn't expect it to be true! Oh, I should have believed it a long time ago, after all, this kind of thing is nothing unusual," Ge Gulan stared at Esther's flesh and blood The fuzzy arm is gradually healing, and when the wound is healed, the knife is cut again, and the dark red blood gushes out like a spring, "Those dead people can walk and are hungry, or are still conscious... Shhh! Look at me, I really talk more and more, now is not the time to write new poems, Gina will come soon, that mean woman is always unwilling to wait a minute."

Esther squinted her eyes half-closed and looked towards the reputation. Gegulan brought a goblet from the tray, just like the cups that always appear at dinner parties or birthday celebrations. The blood dripping from Esther's arm.

Even though it's all bright red.

"We're going to have a good time, I promise," Gorgulam smiled nervously, staring at the glass full of liquid.He carefully put the cup back on the tray, the only clean table in the room full of waste and clutter, "but I think there should be some space... It's so cramped, too cramped..."

Esther blinked unconsciously. She listened to Ge Gulan chattering to himself, and then he turned on a weak desk lamp, and there was a silhouette around the hazy white light. Ge Gulan was an unusually skinny middle-aged man. His hair is almost bald, his cheeks are severely sunken, like a refugee who has been starving for months, but his eyes are full of energy.

Wearing casual shirts and trousers that can be seen everywhere in hypermarkets, he stooped to tidy up the scattered utensils on the floor, including screwdrivers, rubber rings, hemp rope, garden shears and many cardboard boxes. There was an iron frame for sundries, and an old sofa was quite close to the platform where Essex lay, and the sofa was also piled up with dirty clothes.

"I don't like lights, it's too harsh for me, yes, harsh, I always hate this kind of light," he said as he tidied up, throwing the gardening shears under the sofa, "Oh, but it's too messy here , I have to put everything back together, it's a messy job, those medicines always want to tear down the garage, it's naive to think, so naive..."

At this moment, Ge Gulan paused, staring at the back of the sofa for a while, and then sighed deeply.

"Garbage, so much garbage..."

Esther heard Ge Gulan complaining constantly, and then he grabbed something from behind the sofa and stood up slowly. At first Esses didn't see it clearly, but when Ge Gulan was walking towards the basement with the 'garbage', she realized It was found that it was a 'person', or should I say a 'corpse'.

A naked corpse with its blood drained.

"Hmm..." Essers couldn't help retching.There were many open wounds on that mummy, and she believed that Ge Gulan kept cutting open wounds on that body to draw more blood, as she had done to her, and put the dark red liquid in a goblet to the mean The maid Gina.

boom! ──

Ge Gulan kicked the corpse down the stairs like throwing a bag of garbage, Essers could even hear the sound of bones breaking.However, the man didn't take it seriously, he kept muttering words, roared a few times into the dark basement, and then slammed the door hard.

"I've always hated cleaning up clutter. Those things should be handed over to real servants. Unfortunately, after Pine was killed by Harris, no one helped me clean up." Gorgulan panted, and he flipped over from the shelf. Getting out of the chain and walking towards Esses, he looked down at the healed scar on her arm and smiled very sinisterly, "Ha! It's so interesting!"

Esther let her limbs be tied to the bedposts limply, and she was stripped naked like a corpse dragged just now.She lay under the desk lamp like a steel-born baby or a biological experiment, and the embarrassment, anger, and fear that kept rising in her heart almost burst through her forehead.

Ge Gulan didn't give her a chance to call for help, and the spit-out cloth was stuffed back into Esses's mouth, this time wrapped around her face with stronger packing tape.

"Trust me," Gegulan leaned into Esses's ear and sneered, "This will be an unforgettable vacation."
