Area 305 R
When you open the door from the A-17 pier lobby and walk out, there is a long walkway. The surface of the walkway is composed of countless small stones of fine fragments, painted with a layer of beige paint; In addition to being a little uneven when walking, it also makes people worry about whether the stones under their feet will slip and make people fall from a height of several hundred meters - after all, there is no protection on both sides of this extended walkway, and when you look down, the pedestrians on the soles of your feet are like ant colonies, flowing slowly and black on the ground.
From this height, you can see the waists of the buildings in the cyber area; The gray-black building, accompanied by the light shining through the windows, still extends upwards and more in the night...... It's as if there's no end. When Lin Sanjiu looked at them, he couldn't help but wonder what the people living on the top floor were going to do.
On the ground on both sides of the aisle, there were two rows of indicator lights, and small white points of light stretched out all the way and disappeared a hundred meters away, as if swallowed by the huge black shadow at the end of the aisle-this giant beast suspended in mid-air, it was the spaceship she was about to take this time-Lin Sanjiu stopped, took half a step back, tilted his head and carefully looked at this "spaceship".
- For a person from Earth, this "spaceship", like most of the man-made structures on the Red Nautilus, looks beyond her imagination. If he hadn't known what this thing was first, I'm afraid Lin Sanjiu wouldn't have associated it with transportation.
Looking at it from such a distance, the steel platform in the distance is probably at least a few thousand square meters, as if someone has dug up a square by the roots. It was like it was in the air...... As soon as she thought of this, she suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps not far behind her, and without waiting for someone behind her to urge, she hurriedly quickened her pace and walked towards the spaceship.
The aisle was too narrow for two passengers to walk side by side.
Like walking on a balance beam in the air, Lin Sanjiu quickly came to the bottom of the steel platform without squinting.
She didn't know where the main body of the ship was, or what it looked like, but apart from the vast slab on its head, there was only this huge and incomparable "box" hanging under its belly—a "box" sealed with layers of steel plates, and when viewed closely, it was impossible to even see the end; Two of the steel plates are staggered by some distance between them. A miserable white light spilled from within. She had just walked to the door. A tired young man in a suit of work clothes didn't raise his eyes, and shouted at her footsteps: "...... The R area on the right-hand side is the open space with the door open, so find a place to sit by yourself. ”
Lin Sanjiu deliberately made himself look like a seasoned passenger. Slipped in without saying a word—though her bony wings rightfully caused her a little trouble; As she bent over. The row of sharp blades at the tail end of the bone wing was not well controlled. It nearly cut the young man's face in half—but he managed to get into it without blood.
The young man looked at her back with a pale face for a while, and then suddenly remembered something and shouted: "You be careful, you will have to pay for the damage to our goods!" ”
At this time, Lin Sanjiu had already walked to the door of the R area. Hearing this, she sighed silently.
"Who told you to afford only the cheapest tickets." After a while, Teacher Yi muttered.
- After scolding her bones again, she squeezed them tightly behind her back, carefully squeezing into the narrow doorway of the R zone. On both sides of the R section, iron boxes the size of warehouses fill every inch of space, piled up to the ceiling; Only the fluorescent lamps above the walkway were still barely shining downward.
Sometimes when the cargo ship is full, if there happens to be some empty space, it will sell some tickets at half the price of the usual passenger ship - but there is neither fresh water nor seats, and sometimes even the legs can't be stretched, so they have to squeeze together with the cargo box - remembering that he was pleasantly surprised when he saw this ticket, Lin Sanjiu suddenly felt a little aggrieved.
The R area looks like it's only twenty or thirty square meters in size at most, which is pitifully small for the size of the ship. Even such a little time is not wasted, Lin Sanjiu doesn't know if she should celebrate her luck. By the time she walked in, there were already four or five people sitting in the corner—of course, almost everyone had a look of diswelcome on their faces after seeing her bones.
…… She was still cheeky enough to find a place and stood with her arms crossed. Maybe it was because Lin Sanjiu looked really fierce when she had a cold face and no expression, so even if she took up a large area, no one said anything in the end.
The footsteps that walked behind her just now also came to the door of Zone R with the same light and frequency; A young woman poked her head through the narrow entrance. Lin Sanjiu subconsciously looked up and was startled—but before he could rush out of his throat, he was frozen, and then he was swallowed alive. She watched in amazement as the woman walked in, looked left and right, and sat down across from her.
When he glanced at her for the first time, Lin Sanjiu almost thought that this person was Sajie.
But if you look closely, this woman is completely different from Sajah - whether it is hair color, facial features, or height and body type, it is obvious that they are two different people; The reason why she almost confessed her mistake was because this woman also had a pair of black eyes that almost collapsed, and a thick scarf around her neck.
As if noticing Lin Sanjiu's gaze, the strange woman hooked the corners of her mouth slightly.
Despite the ups and downs in his heart, Lin Sanjiu did not move on the surface, and turned his head expressionlessly.
Twenty or thirty square meters of space, you can't sell many tickets; After the tenth man walked into the R section, the tired young man followed him to the door.
"Listen, everyone, this time it will take five days to fly, and you will disembark at Hubble Harbor and transfer to another search spacecraft." He held on to the door with one hand and said absentmindedly, "...... Follow the aisle all the way to the restroom and the entrance will be locked before takeoff. While you can move around the walkway, it's best to stay in the R zone...... Eh, it doesn't matter. You can't open these container areas anyway. Don't touch our stuff and don't fight, or someone will be responsible for throwing it at you. ”
He didn't bother to look at the reaction of the crowd, and as soon as the last word came out, he turned around and left; After a while, the "click" of steel pulleys and locks was heard from the direction they had come.
Ten strangers fell silent in the forced space, keeping as far distance as they had from each other.
The silence was soon drowned out by the slight roar of the ship's start—the sturdy iron-clad creature felt unstable as it turned around and lifted into the air, and the steel hull around him buzzed for a moment. When the trajectory of the spacecraft finally smoothed out, several passengers found their own comfortable positions. Sitting, sitting, lying down. A brown-haired middle-aged woman walked past Lin Sanjiu, walked out of the R area, and walked into the aisle.
It wasn't until this time that she had time to raise her doubts to Teacher Yi.
“…… Was I dreaming at the time? Or is it an illusion? "Until now. When she recalls the real world, she will be in a trance. "It's so realistic. No. It should be said that if there are no suspicious things, it is a different reality entirely...... In comparison, this bizarre spaceship, the Red Nautilus or something. It's more like a dream. ”
"I can't say either......," said Teacher Yi, "and this is the first time I've seen something like this." But the beautiful eyes and blue bills you saw at the time were actually done by me. I can't wake you up, and I can't reach you, so I have to create some imagery and instill it...... If not, I'm guessing you're still living an ordinary life in your old world, day in and day out. ”
Lin Sanjiu was taken aback, but he couldn't help but tremble - "No wonder! The rest of the people were completely caught up in that layer of hallucination, and they couldn't wake up......"
If it weren't for the teacher, I'm afraid that in a few months, she would also lie in the pile in the same dying appearance.
"And how did you notice something was wrong?" She asked in her heart, but on the surface she was still calm as water, as if she was closing her eyes and recuperating, and there was no sign of talking to someone.
"I guess you're lucky." Teacher Yi's voice relaxed a little, "Those white smoke makes you dream of the world of your hometown, which is normal for you; So at first, I was also confused, thinking that I was you, living in your body...... But I soon found out that I and you are two different consciousnesses, and you don't seem to know my existence at all—and it is precisely because I first awakened and recognized my own existence that I knew that your condition was abnormal. ”
Although it was a little puzzling, Lin Sanjiu had personally experienced that layer of realistic and terrifying reality, and soon understood—at the same time, she couldn't help but be a little afraid.
"Indeed, if I dream not of my hometown, but of a part of the apocalyptic world...... Fight, survive, find a visa or something...... Then I'm afraid neither of us will realize that something is wrong, then I really can't sleep-"
The words were choked by her, and a thought that followed hit her like electricity.
Her face grew pale.
"You don't mean ......," Mr. Yi stammered.
"I was ...... before I dreamed of my hometown Is it really sober? Lin Sanjiu said softly in her heart—more like she was forcing her to find the answer herself. (To be continued......)
