When we got out of the elevator and arrived on the eighth floor, the scene in front of us was crowded, and Xu Yiwen and I were both stunned in the elevator. οΌhua.ββ
After a long time, the elevator 'door' was about to close, and the two of us walked out of it belatedly.
Today's weather is actually 'quite cold', but because the corridor is full of people, the whole space is as warm as if the central air conditioning is on.
I noticed that most of the people who came here were some elderly people.
Some even brought their own small benches, sat in the corner, and gathered together to chat.
The appearance of Xu Yiwen and I was particularly eye-catching in the crowd and attracted a lot of attention.
A few aunts leaning against the 'door' looked at the two of us curiously for a while, and one of them reminded: "Young man, it's late today, the number has already been arranged, and you may have to wait for next week." β
I glanced at my watch, and it was 2:05 a.m.
Seeing this, Xu Yiwen turned to me and asked, "What now?" Why don't we go back first?? β
I thought that as long as I came, I would be able to see my grandmother, but I didn't know that I had to be numbered, and Cheng Yanjin said that there were only a dozen people before, and I didn't expect that there were so many people here.
After staring at the crowd for a while, I sighed in frustration, and was about to tell Xu Yiwen to go back first.
But before I could speak, I saw the 'door' of my grandmother's house open.
Immediately afterwards, a young old lady who looked like she was in her fifties and had short ear-length hair from the countryside in the last century led a little 'girl' out of the house.
The little girl's look was a little sluggish, and she obediently held her grandmother's hand, and as soon as they came out, a family immediately surrounded them.
In the crowd, I only saw my grandmother smile apologetically at the family, and then shook her head and said something, vaguely hearing only the words "psychology" and "hospital".
In the family's disappointed looks, she quickly led another person into the house.
The family who stayed outside was a little helpless and took the little 'girl' child and prepared to leave.
When the little 'girl' child passed by me and Xu Yiwen, I stared at the little 'girl' child's face for a long time, but when I saw her eyes, I was shocked, and then rushed forward and grabbed the child. (hua.advertisement)
The family obviously didn't expect me to suddenly grab the child, and a man in his thirties immediately rushed up and pushed me away, protected the child behind me, and said to me guardedly: "Why are you pulling our children?" β
I stared at the little 'girl' for a while.
Many people in the hallway noticed what was going on here, and gradually the whole hallway fell silent, and all eyes were on us.
I said to the father of the girl, who was probably the girl's child, "Let's go downstairs and talk to you about your child." β
Probably just rejected by Grandma Sun, who was already in a bad mood, the man waved his hand impatiently: "We don't have time to chat with you." β
Xu Yiwen also grabbed my arm and whispered, "Silent, don't meddle." β
The man looked at me warily again before turning around and taking the child and family into the elevator.
At the moment when the elevator door slowly closed, I rushed to the door and said quickly in a voice that only their family could hear: "Your child is infected, send her to quarantine immediately, otherwise when she mutates, the security bureau will find the 'door', and your family will walk around because she can't eat." β
The moment the elevator door closed, I saw the wide eyes of the 'girl' father, her grandfather's 'milk' and her mother's red eyes.
Back beside Xu Yiwen, he asked me what I had told them.
After thinking for a while, I whispered to Xu Yiwen: "That 'girl' child is infected. β
"What?" Xu Yiwen was surprised: "How do you know?" β
"Her pupils are much narrower than normal people, I have seen a lot of information in the hands of Chen Wei in this regard, in addition to the bite of the virus infection, the first obvious 'sexual' feature is the narrowing of the pupils, and then the thoughts will begin to dull, just like the 'girl' child, showing a state of stupidity, and some will show a manic state, but it is relatively rare, and different people react differently."
After listening to my words, Xu Yiwen thought for a while and asked: "Isn't there still a person who is in an initial state of infection, and there will also be a state of stupidity or mania, but even if it bites someone, won't it make others infected?" Is there any connection between the two? β
I shook my head and said I didn't know: "Our research on viruses is still too superficial, and this virus has a kind of spontaneous mutation 'nature', which is speculated to mean that after they enter the human body, they will evolve into different virus states according to the genes of different themes, and the impact on the body is also different." For example, the route of infection is different, some people have obvious signs of infection but they are not contagious at all, while some people will die quickly and mutate into walking corpses. β
Xu Yiwen spread his hands: "I don't understand it." β
After pondering for a while, I explained: "To put it simply, the reason why we mutate after death, now speculates that in fact, each of us has been infected with these viruses in our bodies, but there is no deeper external way to spread more powerful viruses into our bodies, so those viruses in our bodies are suppressed by our immune system, and the reason why so many people show different states after being infected is because the infection process is different, if you are directly bitten by a walking corpse, Or if the blood of the walking corpse enters the body, then this kind of Cheng dΓΉ will definitely lead to rapid failure and death of the human body, and the immune system is helpless against such viruses, and some people who are initially infected are also infected, but they are not infectious, because the infection of Cheng dΓΉ can still be suppressed by the body's immune system in addition to damaging his personal sanity. β
After listening to this, Xu Yiwen stared at me for a long time: "I've never seen you so serious." β
I was a little embarrassed by his staring, cleared my throat and deliberately didn't look at him, I continued: "That 'girl' child just now, her pupils have shrunk like that, and she will definitely mutate after death tomorrow at the latest." β
Even in the shelter, we are used to death.
In addition, it was someone who had nothing to do with him, so Xu Yiwen lost interest in this topic, and I stopped talking.
There is nothing but regretting that young life in my heart.
That illness made me see a lot of things.
Instead of wasting time on doing something that you can't do and secretly hurt yourself, it's better to go every day according to your own ideas.
In case one day, the doctor suddenly notified me that cancer cells were found again somewhere in my body.
Then, my life came to an end.
Every day of my life now is like a charity, and I must cherish it even more.
After the girl's family left, I had the intention of waiting.
So for the rest of the afternoon, I waited in the corridor with Xu Yiwen.
There were finally fewer and fewer people in the corridor, and I noticed that more people were accompanying others, and there were less than ten people who actually saw my grandmother in private.
When it was dark, the last group left.
After Grandma sent them into the elevator, she turned her head and saw me and Xu Yiwen who were still standing on the side.
After glancing at the two of us, she turned around and walked towards the room, "Come in, young man." β
Hearing this, Xu Yiwen and I glanced at each other and hurriedly followed.
As soon as I entered the house, I smelled a fragrant smell.
When I glanced inside, I realized that the source of the fragrance came from an offering table.
On the altar was a statue of a person I didn't recognize.
There was an incense burner underneath, which was almost half burned, and there were several plates of fruit next to it.
Other than that, the layout of the house is similar to ours.
Grandma Sun poured a glass of boiled water for Xu Yiwen and me, put it on the single sofa opposite the two of us: "Don't mind, there is only boiled water at home." β
Shaking my head to say that it didn't matter, I quickly glanced at my grandmother and was about to introduce myself, but before the words could be spoken, my grandmother said directly: "Before you speak, let me remind you." β
I withdrew what I had meant to say, nodded, and waited for her to continue.
Grandma took a sip of water and looked at me and Xu Yiwen: "I'm just an ordinary person, and I'm not so unruly as I can't eat the fireworks of the world, I may not be able to deal with your problems, the reason why I let you sit here is not because I'm willing to help, but I'm willing to listen to your stories and come up with ideas, if you think you still want to say, please drink tea and stay, if you don't want to, you can leave now." β
Hearing this, I thought for a while and then asked Xu Yiwen to go out and wait for me first.
After Xu Yiwen went out, there were only two people left in the house, my grandmother and me, she looked at me and said lightly: "You can say what problems you encountered." β
I also looked at her: "I saw the dead. β
Grandma looked me up and down again: "What is your birthday?" β
