Chapter 4: The Frightened Bird
Overnight, the town became the focus of the country and the world. The topic of "aliens" is talked about on TV and in the newspapers, and no one can explain what it is except for alien objects. When did it appear? Where will it go? Will it disappear in the future? What the hell is it? At least, that thing has been there for nearly half a month since it last came close.
At the same time, some experts question whether it is a "flying machine" or a "creature", saying that it is a flying machine, but it has the body of a human, but if it is a living creature, it has no signs of human - no breathing, just like a model in a clothing store, I don't know why it hangs in the air.
According to the local news, a large number of outsiders and foreigners poured into Yongxing City, and Su Mingguang thought that there would finally be a place of interest in the local area. This heavenly "man" will not only bring big news, but also seem to bring a lot of dividends to the transportation, hotel, and catering industries related to the city's tourism.
Because he was afraid of the recent chaos outside, Su Yuguang's parents told him not to go out before going to work, even if the doorman Lao Huang generally did not allow people from outside to come in. Also, since the one from the sky came down, Su Mingguang felt that there were more footsteps outside the door.
Su Mingguang, who had nothing to do, saw a group of plainly dressed people walking into Aunt Ma's house across the door through the cat's eye on the door.
Aunt Ma's full name is Ma Shishu, although she is called an aunt by the children, Ma Shishu is 61 years old. Before her retirement, she was the second-in-command of the unit, and it is said that she once believed in Zen Buddhism behind her back, but later converted to Western Buddhism. Due to her work, she only carried out her activities about faith behind her back, and after retiring the year before last, she did not seem to have so many restrictions, and she no longer shy away from worship and group activities with the faithful.
It was not common to be unmarried at an older age, but Ma Shishu seemed to be ready to live a lifetime alone. Because of being alone, life is relatively easy. The children all know about this, of course, the adults don't say it directly, but in the past, when they chewed their tongues on the side, they didn't expect the children to listen to it.
Those strangers who came in and out of the unit were basically Ma Shishu's parishioners, Ma Shishu said hello to the doorman Lao Huang, and these people went straight to Ma Shishu's house on the fifth floor of the second unit. Through the cat's eye, when the door was not closed, Su Yuguang saw that in Aunt Ma's living room, the small stools were surrounded in a circle, and Aunt Ma was distributing something to everyone in the middle.
After dinner, there were a few more footsteps outside the door, and the group of people in Aunt Ma's house should have gone.
"Ah Guang, come out and play!" There was a neat shout, and it was several children who shouted Su Yuguang to go out. Su Yuguang looked at his parents, and his mother nodded. "Where!" Su Yuguang shouted happily downstairs, except for a few adults playing cards, there was no child in sight. "Roof! Come on!" Su Yuguang immediately rushed out.
In the past, everyone did not often go to the rooftop of the building, because the floor tiles on the roof would collapse, and the adults did not want them to jump on it. But now it's different, and it's definitely the best place to see "people".
Maybe it's because it's been in that location for more than ten days, life is still the same as usual, it's not uncommon for adults to keep staring, and there are only five children on the roof tonight. It was surprisingly quiet, except for the occasional cheer from Quan Qiu, who was playing cards downstairs.
"If only it could glow, it would be easier for adults to walk at night if they want to go to the countryside. Yu Nong looked at the "man" in the sky and said. Tonight, the sky glowed with a faint red light, and a black figure was reflected against the red light background. If it was a few nights ago, it would have taken a fan's uniform to find it in the black night sky.
"yes, it's okay to shine, maybe we can shine here, and we won't have to be dark on the roof. Liu Yan and her friends just tiptoed to the wall and sat down by the faint light. At that time, there were not many high-rise buildings, and the units were on the edge of the city, so the surrounding lights naturally could not climb to the roof of this building.
In this way, Su Yuguang's heart was indeed a little hairy, and he could hardly see anything on the roof, and the reddened sky was like a blood-red canopy in his eyes. I don't know why, he fantasizes about the scene of the end of the world, hoping that the figure floating in the sky is the savior, but the "man" in the sky is in a backlit position, and only a black shadow is seen on the blood-red background.
Naturally, I can't see the "face" of the one in the sky, Su Mingguang thought, what if it is looking down on us?
Roll Powder suddenly pressed his face against Xiao Hong, who was sitting at the very back, "You count how many of us have in total." ”
"Five!" Red didn't hesitate.
"What if you suddenly notice that the one in the sky is gone, and then you realize that there is an extra person next to you?"
Xiaohong screamed in fright, subconsciously looked at the sky, and hurriedly stood up to change positions with the roll powder, now he didn't want to sit on the outside.
When the two were fighting for position, Xiaohong found that the roll powder was staring at the back and was stunned. I thought it was a roll powder and some kind of ghost idea, but because he was afraid, even if he was fooled and ridiculed, he had to confirm whether there was anyone behind him. Looking back, a figure peeked out from the corner beside him.
