19. The Assassin and the Little Boy (5)
When I opened my eyes, I was lifeless white, the air was filled with pungent disinfectant water, and there was a pot of large-leaved orchids by the window, but in such an environment, all life seemed to be wiped out, and only the dead gray and green remained.
It's probably the best single room in the hospital, but that doesn't change the fact that it's a ward.
Forced to pour medicine and receive various food treatments every day, he now suffers from nausea when he sees something that can be eaten, vomits when he eats, and has no strength in his limbs because he has not been able to eat for two days.
Su Yi looked around blankly, and finally gradually remembered that he wanted to drink water, he used all his strength to support his weak body, and just moved to the side of the bed, he rolled to the ground because he couldn't support it. The people outside the house heard the commotion inside, unlocked the door, and two nurses with blurred faces rushed in, holding him left and right, and pressing him back to the bed.
He watched them blankly, and saw their lips open and closed, but he couldn't hear what they were saying, and after a while, someone came in with a cart with various bottles of medicine, and he watched them take out the medicine of all shapes and โกโก, and wanted to feed him.
He twisted his head to the side and muttered, "I'm not sick...... I don't eat ......."
The picture suddenly shook violently, and suddenly many people appeared, they all had no faces, but he could see their cold eyes. They rushed up, pressed him to the bed, fixed his limbs with things, and one man slowly came out of the crowd, the man with a syringe in his hand, bowed his head and silently pierced the tip of the needle into his bare/exposed arm, the cold liquid mixed with the blood flowed all over his body, and his stomach suddenly throbbed violently, as if he was being twisted together, as if he was about to be torn to pieces......
He suddenly saw two faces in the group of people, and these two faces were especially clear in the group of blurred faces, they should have been the closest people to him in this world, but they looked at him with only unwillingness, disgust, and indifference.
"Let me go back to school...... Mom, I'm not sick, let me go back ......"
The stomach hurt so much that it was biting, and his consciousness was blurred, Su Yi shrank into a ball with all his strength, as if he could resist the cold in his heart and retain the last trace of warmth.
His body suddenly warmed, and he was like a drowning man trying to grasp the last straw, and he fished it up tightly, and grabbed a person's wrist unexpectedly, and there was a deliberately suppressed gasp in his ears.
Su Yi opened his eyes suddenly.
"Awake?" Yang Yu was squatting in front of him, holding the fire fold in one hand, seeing that he was awake, he withdrew his wrist that was held by him, and said lightly, "I just looked around, this is an underground labyrinth, I don't know what it used to do, but since there is air, there should be a way out." โ
Su Yi inadvertently found that there was a secret passage behind a painting in his room, the secret passage mechanism was very ingenious, it was a one-way switch, if a person entered, it could only be opened from the inside, and people outside could no longer enter. Surrounded by the killers hired by Gu Caisheng that day, Yang Yu took him into the dark passage.
I thought that there should be an exit from the dark passage, but now two days have passed since that day, and they are going deeper and deeper, this underground space is unexpectedly large, and after two days, they can't even touch the shadow of the exit.
Thinking of the gasping sound he heard in his dream just now, Su Yi frowned lightly and sat up, only then did he realize that he was wearing Yang Yu's coat, which slipped to the ground with his movements.
Slightly stunned, he picked up his coat, touched the faint residual warmth with his fingertips, looked up at Yang Yu, and handed the clothes back to him: "How is the injury on your arm?" โ
"It's not a big deal, it's just that I don't need to use my strength. I can't beat you. โ
"You said that day, in order not to hurt me, that's why you hurt your arms...... What's going on? โ
"It's nothing, I just don't like to be controlled by others," Yang Yu said vaguely, and then changed the subject, "I don't know when I will find the exit, what else can you exchange your points for now?" โ
Su Yi hid the slight loss in his heart, took a careful inventory, and was a little surprised: "There are not many points, can I get two flashlights...... Or a healing medicine. โ
"I have a fire fold on my body, and I don't need medicine for the time being...... Is there food and water? โ
"Yes, three bags of compressed biscuits and five bottles of water."
"How many days?"
"If you save food, you can last five days."
Yang Yu opened a fire fold, and the faint light of the fire was extraordinarily bright in the darkness where the five fingers were missing. He stood up and said, "Time is running out, we need to get out quickly." โ
Su Yi stood up against the wall, the ground was damp, his clothes were thin, and his whole body was cold after a sleep, and his stomach began to throb. It's just that he didn't say anything, and it's useless to say it in this situation now, it will only add to the incident.
Forced to take two steps, a hand stretched out in front of him, he was stunned, and heard Yang Yu say: "I support you, you are walking too slowly, without you, I can't get out." Under the light of the fire, Yang Yu's facial features appeared very deep, and his calm and calm expression added a little peace of mind to the predicament in front of him.
Su Yi smiled lightly and took his hand.
Yang Yu is right, this is a natural underground labyrinth, some passages have collapsed, and there is residual gunpowder at the collapse, indicating that it was done artificially, but the reason can no longer be explored and there is no need to explore, the only thing they have to do at present is to live and get out.
There was silence underground, and nothing could be heard except footsteps or breathing, and in such oppressive silence it was easy to get cranky and think of something bad. So after walking for a while, Su Yi found a topic and chatted with Yang Yu without a match.
"Yang Yu, I confessed everything, but you didn't tell me anything...... What is your mission? โ
Yang Yu picked a half-truth answer: "...... Become an adopted child and experience life. โ
There are many forks in the ground, and every time they encounter a fork in the road, they will choose the leftmost one and mark the entrance with stones. Walking like this, I don't know how long I walked, Su Yi was so hungry that he had no interest in talking, and he didn't fall down with the support of perseverance, and Yang Yu finally stopped.
Sitting down face to face, covering the fire fold, the surroundings finally fell into darkness again, Su Yi fumbled to open a pack of compressed biscuits, and then took out a piece and handed it to Yang Yu. Yang Yu took it, only to take two bites, and suddenly there was a retching sound on the opposite side. He was stunned, and immediately touched forward, only to feel Su Yi curled up on the ground, trembling all over.
I just came back from exploring the path, and I saw him like this. The only difference is that there is consciousness now.
Holding Su Yi's upper body into his arms, this action alone affected the injury on his arm, and the wound was torn again, and the pain of piercing the heart and bones was pierced. It's just that this pain is nothing, Yang Yu gritted his teeth, took out a free hand to touch the ground nearby, and finally found the water bottle that Su Yi took out and put on the ground, unscrewed the cap, and just came to Su Yi's lips, but he pushed it away.
Hearing it in his ears, Su Yi squeezed out a few words from between his lips: "The water is too cold...... It's okay, it's old and sick...... It'll be fine in a while......"
Yang Yu hugged him silently, Su Yi was dressed very thinly, and through two layers of fabric, he could feel his coldness under his palm. Frowning, he took off his coat and wrapped him again, probably to divert attention, and asked, "Why don't you wear more?" โ
"Wear more? What else can I wear......" Su Yi was torn away by him, and sure enough, he felt less painful, he sighed softly, "Don't forget, I'm a little guy now, even if I want to wear more clothes, the rules in the building won't let me ......"
Yang Yu's heart shrank slightly, his hand tightened, and suddenly said, "In the future, I won't see you again until your mission is completed." โ
The body in his arms suddenly stiffened, Su Yi probably misunderstood something, and his tone became cold and hard: "Why?" โฆโฆ You also think homosexuality ......" that word he couldn't go on.
"No," Yang Yu paused and said softly, "This is what I owe you." โ
