[comprehensive] empathy

Ning Yuan and Echizen went to the senior's house together, both of them thought that the journey was not far, and it was estimated that it would end soon.But I didn't expect that the familiar streets in the past have changed a lot now, and there are many streets of one kind or another, and after a while, Echizen is confused!

Ning Yuan followed Echizen around several big circles. He dragged his panting body, looked at Echizen who became more and more silent, and asked uncertainly, "You...are you lost?"

Echizen: "..."

Under the scorching sun, the two looked at each other speechlessly, the gray shadow lay quietly at their feet, and the cicadas hummed faintly. Ning Yuan and the two wiped the sweat from their foreheads and suggested, "We've been looking all morning. Let's have some lunch first!"

Echizen: It feels like the only serious thing they do is eat!

Although they complained so much in their hearts, the two still agreed to this decision. They not only went to eat, but also went to eat ice to cool off the heat. After drinking and eating, they still felt a little sleepy, so they found a hotel and prepared to go to bed Sleep.

However, the cashier girl in the hotel was a little strange. When they came in, she kept staring at them with very strange eyes, until they went upstairs, and those strange red eyes were still shooting behind them. .

Ning Yuan and Echizen were a little surprised, then they were overwhelmed by the nap*, quickly entered the room, yawned, and started to catch up on sleep.

This sleep can be regarded as a dark sleep. The two of them slept on the hard desk yesterday. Now when they touched the soft bed, the two of them felt that their backs could not leave the bed. The world is old and the earth is old, sleeping until the sea is dry and the rocks are rotten.

The light shifted slowly, and time passed in their lethargy. When Ning Yuan opened his eyes again, it was the hunger in his belly that woke him up. He woke up from the daze. The time has disappeared without a trace, and the heat of the afternoon is gone. Open the window, and the air outside is already a bit cool.

Ning Yuan yawned, with physiological tears hanging on his eyelashes, he couldn't help it, he sneezed again, rubbed the goose bumps on his body, he turned around and put on his dry clothes.

Echizen was still sleeping, the hat and tennis bag that he never left were put aside, his body was lying on his stomach, his eyes were tightly closed, and his black hair hung messily beside his face.The rosy cheeks look very cute. It's normal for a child to sleep too much.

Ning Yuan couldn't help but sneezed again, rubbed his sore nose, stood up, opened the door, and went downstairs.

Downstairs, the strange hotel cashier was still downstairs, his strange eyes stared at Ning Yuan motionlessly, and when he stared at Ning Yuan so goosebumps that he couldn't help standing up, the man opened his mouth with a weird mouthful. As if the voice had been raised, the voice asked in a flat tone, "Guest, are you going out?"

Hearing this sound, Ning Yuan's body trembled, he nodded, and smiled at the hotel cashier.

Quickly escaping from the strange eyes of the cashier, after Ning Yuan opened the door, he was quickly frightened by the desolate scene outside the door.

The sunset is dim, and the evening is the busiest time, but this street is empty, every house is closed, there are no children playing the TV after school, there are no tired figures of office workers, and there is not even the smell of rice. .It's as if no one lives on this street at all.

Ning Yuan felt strange, but recently he encountered a lot of strange things, his stomach was still rumbling, and he didn't care so much anymore, walked along the main road, came to the outside of this street, and had a good time Had a meal.

After eating, it was almost dark, Ning Yuan did not forget Echizen who was still sleeping, he packed a copy and prepared to take it back for him.

Carrying his lunch box, Ning Yuan returned to that street. Walking on this street during the day would not feel anything, but at night, the rooms on both sides of the street had no light, and only the sound of his own footsteps was left in silence. The creepy atmosphere immediately made Ning Yuan feel dangerous.He hesitated in stepping in.

But Echizen was still inside, he might have woken up, opened his eyes, but couldn't find him.

Ning Yuan took a deep breath, thinking that he was scaring himself, what's so scary, isn't it just death once?He can still live!

Ning Yuan suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and told himself that there was no danger, the night was cold, and along the way, there seemed to be nothing but the freezing cold wind.To his surprise, he returned to the hotel without incident.

In the dark night, the lights of the hotel came on, and the warm orange light instantly calmed Ning Yuan's heart. He opened the door, and the dry warm air blew in front of him, colliding with the cold air on his body, making Ning Yuan feel calm. He couldn't help shivering.

Ning Yuan tightened his clothes and stepped up the stairs gently. When he passed the counter, he couldn't help but glanced at it. The cashier at the counter who had to be noticed was not there, and there was nothing behind the counter. Thinking, he was still worried about Echizen, stepped on the steps, and went upstairs.

The corridor on the second floor was not lit, and it was dark. Ning Yuan walked to their door with the help of the faint light downstairs. He reached out and turned the doorknob, and pushed it forward, but it didn't open.

Ning Yuan was stunned for a moment, then he knocked on the door, "Echizen?"

Ning Yuan's voice was neither small nor loud, but it seemed to be magnified countless times in this corridor, and it was particularly clear to the ears. Almost as soon as he shouted out, Ning Yuan's hairs immediately stood on end. In the darkness, It seemed that something was staring at him.

"Senior Ning Yuan!"

The door in front of him suddenly opened, and Ning Yuan felt his hand tighten, and was pulled into the door by Echizen. Almost at the next moment, in the darkness, the thing that was staring at him came towards them stepping on the splashing liquid.Echizen's hands were sharp, and at the very moment, the wooden door was slammed shut with a bang.Before they recovered from the shock, the wooden door was smashed to pieces.

Ning Yuan and Echiqian hurriedly stepped back in panic. Under the moonlight reflected by the window, they saw the thing attacking them. It was the cashier. His appearance had completely changed at this time, with blood-red eyes and black whites. , the fierce eyes did not match his human appearance, at this moment, he was staring at them with the eyes of a hunter.Moreover, a particularly strange thing extended from his body, just about to move.

Ning Yuan and Echizen looked at each other, and they both saw panic in each other's eyes.Ning Yuan tried his best to hold his breath, not wanting to startle the monster in front of him, all the food given to Echizen was spilled unknowingly, and the warm soup was all sprinkled on his hands and legs, making him feel sticky, Like his heart.In this kind of fear, like viscous air, beating restlessly.

The sound of dripping water hit the ground, and in the blink of an eye, the monster fell forward swiftly.With the opening of his mouth, a piece of meat was torn off from Echizen's body, and he chewed it with great relish.

He is also a picky eater. Echizen looks smaller than Ning Yuan, but he is a half-grown child. Not only are his muscles white and tender, but he also looks very vibrant with daily exercise, unlike Ning Yuan, who has pale skin. It's all transparent, and it looks like a sick ghost. The whole body has a little more flesh.

In the blink of an eye, Echizen was torn off a piece of flesh, Ning Yuan was almost frightened, the gurgling blood immediately soaked Echizen's clothes.Ning Yuan's head exploded at the sight of the blood-red color, and all the fear in his heart turned into a fierce force that he didn't know where it came from. His eyes were red. He picked up the iron rod next to him and greeted the monster's head. With all his strength, if he is an ordinary person, his brains will be scattered under this stick, and he will be disabled even if he is not dead.

However, what Ning Yuan was facing at this time was an out-and-out monster. The red tentacles spreading from his body wrapped around Ning Yuan's wrist under the cover of darkness. The person's body flipped out and slammed into the wall fiercely.

Ning Yuan tried his best to crawl towards the front direction among the rotten furniture. He felt his viscera churning, as if dislocated, tangled in pain, burning hot, a burst of fishy smell gushed out of his throat, and uncontrollable blood scrambled out of his mouth gush.

"Ah-"

The monster suddenly yelled in pain, covered his eyes, and bent his body in pain. In Ning Yuan's blurred vision, he saw Echizen throw away the eyeballs in his hand, dragging his injured body, and staggered towards Ning Yuan with a pale face. Come.

"Senior Ning Yuan..." Echizen called weakly, knelt down on Ning Yuan Shenshen, and stretched out his hand to push away the broken pieces of wood on Ning Yuan's body.

Ning Yuan stepped forward and saw the sound of the screaming monster behind him getting weaker and weaker, his body twitched slowly, and fell to the ground as if unconscious.

A dangerous feeling rose in Ning Yuan's heart, and he coughed up the blood in his throat. With a hoarse voice, he ordered to sign, "Behind...the monster..."

Echizen glanced back and saw the monster lying on the ground. Regardless of the injury on his shoulder, he accelerated the speed of his hands and helped Ning Yuan up with difficulty.

"Go, let's go!"

The two walked towards the door in a slow pace. When they stepped out of the door, Ning Yuan didn't know why, and suddenly glanced sideways at the monster on the ground. This time, he just saw that monster opened his eyes, and the recovered eyes were full of tears. Stare at them maliciously.

"Dodge, Echizen!" In desperation, Ning Yuan pushed Echizen away, and swung the stick in his hand at the head of the rushing monster.

"Ning Yuanqian..." Echizen's voice was interrupted unexpectedly, and he was anesthetized from behind and passed out.Soft to the ground.In the darkness, a group of troops quietly appeared from the darkness. An officer walked up to the front, took out the machine, compared the face displayed on it with Echizen, and ordered his subordinates to drag Echizen away.

Ning Yuan's stick was swept away by the monster, his hands were empty, and he had no strength to fight against the monster.As if teasing him, the monster didn't move, and the tentacles behind him kept piercing his legs and arms.Ning Yuan fell to the ground, his body was bloody, and he kept spitting blood from his mouth.

"Bang bang bang——" the army that appeared from downstairs all looked solemn, and aimed their guns at the monster, and then there were bursts of gunshots.

Ning Yuan leaned against the blood, listening to the very distant gunshots next to his ears, he coughed up blood continuously, and he covered the blood gushing out of his abdomen.Vision became more and more blurred.
