Paintings of Terror

Not all of these people with red marks are willing to tell their thoughts, and even if they want to say it, they tell it selectively.

Zhu Haowen was expressionless and didn't say a word, and he resolutely refused to listen to other people's stories. He walked out of the restaurant to his residence.

Xiao Qinxian firmly believed that she had no memory of beasts, so she returned to the police station dormitory alone with a cold expression.

Zhao Yanbao said: "I plan to try to self-precipitate. If other people need psychological counseling, I can help."

There are not many others left: Qin Ci, Yu Ji, Luo Wei.

Luo Wei said that he was exhausted physically and mentally today, so he wanted to go back and rest.Mu Yiran took advantage of not "ignoring" this partner at the moment, so he followed him to the dormitory.

Yu Ji always followed Qin Ci and refused to leave, as if he regarded Dr. Qin as the only straw.

Although their hospital colleague Su Benxin was not at peace, but after all, he was a person who had no memory of beasts. At this moment, he was chatting with his friend Lion under the street lamp, and patted each other's shoulders from time to time, as if to comfort each other.

Neither Ke Xun nor Wei Dong left, and Qin Ci stood under the tall magnolia tree.

Yu Ji stood beside Qin Ci like a tail, with an awkward expression on his face: "I know I'm a bit redundant, but I don't want to leave Dr. Qin, if I suddenly feel pain somewhere, maybe Dr. Qin can help me soon The scalpel cleared that thing out and saved my life."

Qin Ci really wanted to say that he didn't carry a scalpel with him, but seeing Yu Ji's extremely nervous expression, he didn't say anything else.

Looking at Qin Ci's forehead, Wei Dong thought of the big piece of beast that Luo Wei described covering half of his forehead and spreading to his eyes, and felt uncomfortable: "Hao Wen'er didn't say anything, and you didn't say anything. Yes, Chi Lei is gone and Zhao Yanbao will untie her, if you... I don't even know why you left."

Qin Ci didn't care much: "Actually, I don't have any secrets. When Luo Wei mentioned the dark red mark on my forehead, I probably knew what was going on."

Wei Dong was a little anxious when he heard this: "Then why are you so calm, hurry up and find a way to relieve the demon!"

"The inner demon can't be untied just by solving it," Qin Ci couldn't help smiling, "Besides, I don't think it's the inner demon, it's just an unforgettable memory."

"Doctor Qin, I...should I avoid it?" Yu Ji looked at Su Benxin and Lion who were talking not far away, and seemed unwilling to go there.

Qin Ci was noncommittal: "It's not a secret, and there's nothing shameful about it. ——My lover passed away, and it's been five years."

Ke Xun was startled when he heard this, and for a moment didn't know how to continue the conversation.A person like Qin Ci is kind, thoughtful, patient, and even moderate. In my previous dictionary, such a person belongs to the kind of "highly educated and successful person" who has no bright spots. I have never even guessed that this person will What kind of story is there—probably besides the busy work, it is a blind date with "very decent" ladies like teachers, nurses and civil servants?

Qin Ci actually had a lover, and he had already passed away.

"The lover you're talking about is already married?" Wei Dong couldn't help asking.

"I have already obtained the marriage certificate, but the wedding has not yet been held." Qin Ci's voice gradually lowered, "She died in an air crash. She flew from another city to find me at that time, in order to celebrate my birthday."

Ke Xun stepped forward and patted his old friend on the shoulder, without saying anything.

Yu Ji interjected from the side: "My lover also passed away... Could it be that people like us with dark marks are all because of his lover's death? That young man from out of town is also in the same situation?"

Ke Xun thought of Luo Wei's situation, nodded, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, but it went out again, and his attention was shifted to the present moment.

Qin Ci showed his usual friendly smile: "Although I have never been able to forget this person, I have not been obsessed with it. Especially recently, I... seem to have returned to the kind of people who have no burden and are completely relieved. I've never been this relaxed in years."

Ke Xun looked into Qin Ci's eyes: "The relaxed state you mentioned refers to the two days in Xincheng, right?"

Qin Ci didn't think deeply about this matter: "Yes, it's these two days."

Pieces of white and thick magnolia petals fell down, like a winter's snow.

Ke Xun seemed to be able to hear his own echo: "You, don't you want to go back?"

Qin Ci: "I'm a happy-go-lucky person, besides, isn't it good that we are all here?"

At this moment, Ke Xun was probably the most terrified since he came to Xincheng, although there was only Qin Ci's calm face in front of him.

Wei Dong didn't seem to think that deeply, or he had already been assimilated by the painting, and he was just dissuading him at the moment: "Don't, we are far away from home, besides, our temporary residence permit is only thirteen days old, to be exact, it's only six and a half days, if we don't find the beast , we might have to break here! Besides, you have such a big beast record, if something happens, it will be a big deal."

Qin Ci: "I don't think that beast represents evil. My beast is just my memories and past times. This kind of fusion with the beast seems to find my original self. I don't believe it will hurt me. ——I never In the data, we have seen cases of beasts and hosts living in peace for decades."

"Can you calculate the year of the beast?" Ke Xun grasped this sentence and asked.

"The results may come out tomorrow. Through the texture of the beast that is invisible to the naked eye, we can measure how long the beast has existed in the host." Qin Ci seemed to be talking about other people's affairs at this time, "My beast, about five years .”

The more peaceful and even comfortable Qin Ci is at this moment, the more uncomfortable and even panicky Ke Xun feels.

……

Xiao Qinxian put out the cigarette and went back to her room.

A thunderous phone rang, like a beggar crazily showing off the scrap metal he picked up.

Xiao Qinxian picked up the phone angrily: "Who are you?"

There was a familiar voice on the other side of the phone: "It's okay, I'll try calling."

If others are okay, it is the outsider who I dislike the most!That outsider, Luo Wei, was so full that he called himself from the next door!

Xiao Qinxian shouted directly on the phone: "You are sick!"

After yelling, he still didn't feel relieved, and ran directly to the next door: "You are harassment!"

In the next room, Luo Wei was still holding the receiver in his hand, and Mu Yiran was standing not far from him.

Luo Wei's expression didn't change a bit because of Xiao Qinxian's madness. At this moment, he faced Fang Fang directly and said, "I'm testing a lie."

"Why are you talking to me like a prisoner!" Xiao Qinxian made a broken voice, not knowing why she was so angry.

Luo Wei remained calm like a robot: "You said you received a call last night, you are lying."

Xiao Qinxian froze for a moment, then glared at Luo Wei again: "Thousands! Really! Ten thousand! Indeed! A crazy man called me last night!"

"The ringing of the phone is deafening, it's impossible for us not to hear it." Luo Wei took it easy.

"Sleeping like a dead pig, of course I can't hear."

Luo Wei bypassed Xiao Qinxian at the door, and pointed to somewhere in the corridor outside: "Last night, at this location, you were smoking, and I came out of Mu Yiran Ke Xun's room, and you said you answered a phone call, and the other party There was no talking, so you unplugged the phone line.—The three of us were in the room at the time of the call, and it was impossible not to hear the screeching phone ring."

Xiao Qinxian was in a daze, and even lit another cigarette as if to match the reappearance of the scene: "Yes, I also complained that the broken phone has no caller ID..."

Mu Yiran, who had been silent next to him, finally spoke: "There is something wrong with what you said just now. Last night you said that the caller kept silent, but you just said that the other party is a 'crazy man'."

Luo Wei's always cold eyes finally lit up, and he looked at Mu Yiran gratefully. He really didn't dare to expect that this conversation with Xiao Qinxian could be "successfully heard" and "correctly understood" by Mu Yiran.

Mu Yiran, who lived up to expectations, continued: "Did anyone call? Did the caller speak? What did they say?"

Xiao Qinxian messed up her mushroom head a little irritably, with a cigarette in her mouth, the appearance was not different from what Luo Wei saw last night: "I don't know if there is anyone on the other end of the phone, it sounds vague It’s like the voice when the radio signal is not working, it seems to be a man, and I can’t hear what he said. I suspect that the phone is crossed.”

"Can't hear a word clearly? It's good if you can hear a word clearly." Mu Yiran asked.

Xiao Qinxian calmed down for a while, and then said: "It seems that there are two words that can be vaguely heard - left hand, it should be these two words."

Xiao Qinxian went out after finishing speaking: "I feel very broken, I'm going to take a shower, you better not ask me a word."

Mu Yi was silent for a while. Looking back, Luo Wei seemed to be writing something repeatedly on a piece of paper. When he walked over to look, there were some colorless traces, like what was left on the pad below when a child was doing homework. Marks in all directions.

Mu Yiran took it over and frowned for a long time, but couldn't make out a word, but still folded it up and put it in his pocket.

Luo Wei smiled wryly: "Maybe I didn't last until the end, so I collapsed first."

"Don't worry," Mu Yiran made his tone as soft as possible, "I've heard Xiao Qinxian's words about the mysterious phone call we couldn't hear, and the 'left hand' mentioned on the phone, this is the clue, we can already We communicated slightly, didn't we?"

Luo Wei sighed and shook his head, there seemed to be some sparkle in his eyes, but he quickly erased it: "I can guess the appearance of my beast, it must be a cornucopia. Hehe, it should be a cornucopia. That scene is my heart The haze of that will linger forever."

Mu Yiran sighed, but knew he couldn't comfort him.

"I'm really tired." Luo Wei leaned against his bed.

"Rest first, I don't think there is no possibility of progress."

"Okay, good night." Rowe smiled tiredly.

"Good night." Mu Yiran walked out of the room, thinking about Luo Wei's words, that cornucopia beast, his girlfriend who died in a horrible way...

Mu Yiran felt his heart tightening up bit by bit, and memories gradually spread through his mind like the sound of distant drums, jumping out of his heart, out of the painting, painting, painting, painting...

Mu Yiran suddenly took out the piece of paper from his pocket, and suddenly found a string of names clearly written on the blank paper: Mirren, Kang Lai, Rong Rang, LEX, Luo Bin, Qiu Jian, Li Jinghao.

It's a signature, it's the signature of those painters who used to be.

If we want to get out of the painting, we must find the signature!

Luo Wei racked his brains again and again to remind himself that this is the most fundamental problem!

Everyone who walks into Heart City has already forgotten the way they came here, and the key to finally get out.
