SHEEP

After settling in his little den, Yi Heye took a change of clothes and went to take a shower.The internal facilities here are quite good, not only with the best temperature control equipment, but also with many small robots coming and going to help.

Such good living conditions seem to be to numb and soothe their pain, which indeed makes some people who are used to living a hard life happy, but there are still many people who are still in great pain.

When Yi Heye came out of the single bathroom wiping his hair, he just heard a suppressed cry from the next room.The voice was very young, obviously trying very hard to control the volume, mixed with the sound of rushing water, it was almost inaudible.

Just as Yi Heye was about to leave, he heard the sound of crying turning into unbearable vomiting, followed by the sound of falling down with a "bang".

Yi Heye paused, thought for a while and asked, "Do you need help?"

The sobbing inside stopped suddenly, and then he tried to restrain himself: "I'm sorry..."

Yi Heye didn't know why he wanted to say sorry to himself, but he just stood at the door and asked, "Is this your first time here too?"

The boy's voice was silent for a few seconds, then he broke down and said, "Wuuu...I..."

Yi Heye doesn't know how to comfort people, it doesn't matter if he stands there and walks, or he doesn't go away.

The boy cried for a long time in the bathroom before he couldn't help crying: "I'm in so much pain... I really didn't know it would be like this..."

Yi Heye knew that he still wanted to talk to him, so he sighed and stopped at the door: "Come out and take some medicine later."

The young man was frightened and collapsed by him: "Woooo... Will I get an infectious disease?"

Yi Heye knew that he had misunderstood himself: "I mean take some painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs..."

But after thinking about it, he still said: "But it's better to take some preventive and blocking medicine."

The boy burst into tears again.

Yi Heye felt that he had said the wrong thing, maybe he shouldn't mention taking medicine at this time.

"I knew this... I might as well go to the construction site to move bricks..." After a while, the young man's voice came again intermittently, "I'm a man... Why do they even do men..."

Yi Heye was afraid that he would run out of oxygen from crying in the bathroom, so he asked, "Uh...do you want to get dressed and cry when you come out?"

The boy could only sob and agree.

After dawdling for about ten minutes, Yi Heye saw a boy about seventeen or eighteen years old staggering out of the bathroom.

He was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, and the exposed skin on his limbs and collar was flushed, obviously just scrubbed very vigorously.

His eyes were also swollen from crying, and he seemed to have difficulty opening them.

But even if this is the case, it can be seen that his facial features are good, and his whole person is delicate and handsome, which is the type that many people will like.

Yi Heye was standing by the door, not knowing how to care for others, but seeing him staggering and about to fall, he quickly reached out to help him.

As a result, the young man was clearly about to lose consciousness, but the moment he was touched by Yi Heye, he bounced like an electric shock.

He hastily stepped back a few steps before he supported the wall in pain and said, "Sorry, I'm a little allergic to physical contact now..."

Yi Heye raised his hands, signaling that he would not touch him again.

I don't know when he started to meddle in other people's business, but Yi Heye didn't object to it - of course it is undeniable that he also wanted to extract more information from the young man.

After the boy adjusted his state, he could finally speak some complete words.

He glanced at Yi Heye, and was full of affection for this red-eyed handsome guy who approached him proactively, and immediately, tremblingly, he confided in him as if he had grabbed hold of a life-saving straw.

The boy's name is Xia Tian, ​​and he just turned up a few days ago. He was chosen as a star because he was too poor and eager to make money.

"I don't want to be a big star at all." Xia Tian said, "I can't sing or dance, let alone act...I just want to make some money."

Because of his father's gambling debts, Xia Tian had to bite the bullet and come out to earn a living before he graduated from high school.

After being cornered again and again, Xia Tian, ​​like everyone else, tried his best to make money, and finally, with the mentality of giving it a try, he agreed to the request of the so-called scout.

"They told me that as long as I have a face, it is enough to subsidize my family with the money I earn from shooting magazine covers and advertisements. I just want to shoot two lists to save the emergency..."

After taking two steps in Xia Tian, ​​his whole body hurts like hell, and he wanted to sit on the bench by the corridor to cover his face and rest, but as soon as he sat down, he felt that nothing was right, and he limped towards the dormitory.

"Because it's a big company, I don't think there will be any problems...how could this be...why no one broke the news on the Internet..."

For this problem, Yi Heye thinks it is not difficult to understand - ISSAC's large-scale recruitment of trainees is only a recent matter, and as far as the current situation is known, no one can bring the news inside, and it is safe and sound. back to the original world.

Yi Heye was afraid that he would cry again after saying this, so An Ansheng shut up.

Xia Tian also had some ideas about his current situation, he said: "We can't even go if we fucking want to go now..."

Yi Heye asked curiously, "Why?"

Xia Tian didn't expect that the person in front of him didn't even know this, so he asked suspiciously: "Could it be that you..."

"I'm lucky." Yi Heye said frankly, "The person in charge of the 'assessment' of me had a problem in the middle, and he was stopped before he could do anything..."

Xia Tian cried again, this time with more remorse and jealousy.

"Because of photos, videos, liquidated damages..." Xia Tian said, "If I escape now, I will be a pauper with social death."

These people were really vicious, blocking their retreat from almost every aspect, making them unwilling to open the door they had to leave even though they had two feet.

Yi Heye didn't know what to say, so he could only casually comfort him: "Since you can't leave, why not think of something better, at least the money you earn is real."

Ke Yu has been sending money to his family for a long time after joining the company, which at least proves that his income is still guaranteed.

Xia Tian seemed to be comforted, and nodded with red eyes: "I just want to save a sum of money to let my mother run away. As long as she lives well, I can do whatever I want."

When sending Xia Tian to the dormitory, Yi Heye discovered that the beds were arranged according to the signing time, and the dormitory of the two of them was actually in the same room.

This comforted Xia Tian a lot - after all, Yi Heye was the only person he could talk to here.

Back in the dormitory, Xia Tian collapsed on the bed - lying on his back would hurt him, but lying on his stomach was not very comfortable.

He moaned and tossed and turned on the bed, wiped away his tears quietly, and then raised his head, ready to find some topics to divert his attention.

"Do you know? I have never seen such a perverted person." Xia Tian recalled with extreme pain, "Even my brain-computer interface was not let go..."

Hearing this, Yi Heye saw that his interface was flushed red, and he was a little surprised: "What do you mean...?"

Can't it?Not even such a small hole...

"Ah, that's not what I mean!" Xia Tian also realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, and corrected, "When they did that, they even connected me to a brain-computer interface. I copied all the dirty things together... But I was too scared, I couldn't get the dirty things in my mind..."

Yi Heye was a little surprised by these words. It stands to reason that the brain-computer interface cannot copy the imagination and memory in the human brain. He couldn't figure out what this so-called machine was used for.

"Speaking of which, how old are you?" Xia Tian wiped away tears and asked, "It feels like we look similar..."

"..." Encountering such a topic again, Yi Heye choked speechlessly.

He wanted to tell Xia Tian that he was nearly ten years older than him, but he remembered that his current identity was "He Ye", a minor with a miserable life.

Therefore, he could only reluctantly say: "...Seventeen."

Xia Tian revealed the only smile of the day: "Then I'm still your brother."

Yi Heye didn't want to talk anymore, he turned around and got on the bed.

Behind him, Xia Tian, ​​who had no one to speak, once again fell into the nightmare that had just ended. He sighed, and at the same time, he was weeping from the pain of the wounds all over his body——

It's not that he hasn't suffered, but such a thing is different from being cheated of money at a construction site or being abused by the boss backstage at a restaurant.

He thought he had already seen the darkness of society, but he didn't expect that the life he experienced would break the lower limit of his cognition step by step.

He sighed heavily once - when he was a child, he always felt that only grown-ups could sigh like this, and now it was his turn.

Xia Tian thought of it, he had already turned 18 last month - he had already become an adult.

When Xia Tian was thinking in a daze, Yi Heye was trying to prepare to fall asleep.

He didn't seem to have much consumption this day, but that didn't stop him. At this moment, he was so tired that his eyelids were fighting.

However, as soon as Yi Heye closed his eyes, he always felt that something was missing.

He knows what to order, but there are people next to him, and he doesn't want to take it out.

Yi Heye glanced back at Xia Tian quietly, and made sure that the child was concentrating on sadness, so he carried the hidden lamb doll into his arms from beside the pillow.

Sleeping here, he didn't dare to take off his prosthetic limbs. After turning over, his arms were just in a hugging position—he was rarely able to hold anything on the bed, and this lamb was an exception.

The soft lamb nest was very comfortable in his arms, and the faint sandalwood fragrance drove away the sense of instability in the unfamiliar environment, making Yi Heye calm down quickly, and fell into sleep little by little.

However, just a second before he was about to fall asleep, Xia Tian's soft exclamation suddenly came from the opposite side: "Where did you get the lamb? Why didn't I send it!"

Yi Heye was taken aback by him, opened his eyes hastily, and was about to turn around and hide the lamb, when Xia Tian begged: "Can you hug me for a night?"

Yi Heye woke up completely this time, and simply stuffed the lamb back into his arms: "No way!"

When Xia Tian heard it, tears fell down again: "Why?!"

……why?

Yi Heye didn't expect him to ask this question, but it really stumped him.

Just as he wanted to pretend he didn't hear it, he heard Xia Tian chanting like a sutra: "I'm miserable and lonely, and I really need a furry thing to comfort my wounded heart..."

Yi Heye was fed up with the nagging—it could be seen that if he didn't give a reasonable explanation, the kid could go on and on all night.

He simply turned over like a carp, and lifted the lamb to Xia Tian.

——Anyway, someone said that the right of interpretation is theirs.

"Because it was given to me by my partner, others can't hug it, understand?" Yi Heye said.

The author has something to say:

Xia Tian: I go, I go.
