Chapter 444: The Last Night

I've been analyzing, I've been thinking.

I've been struggling, I've been resisting.

Under the shroud of confusion that can't distinguish between truth and falsehood, try to clear the fog and look around, trying to find the right way out of the predicament in that chaotic scene environment.

I'm currently in a state of confusion that many people don't touch in their lifetime, I don't know who I am, I can't figure out where I am, the only thing I know is that I am me, and the only thing I have an impression of is ......

The figure.

The soft and slender shadow under the poignant moonlight, the slowly raised arm, with the cherry blossoms flying like a fairy.

I seem to know the shadow.

No, it's not acquaintance, it's familiar, it's familiar, it's so familiar that it's unforgettable, it's so familiar that even if the brain memory is completely deprived, you can still think of each other, and you can still have a vague impression of it with some special feeling hidden in the depths of your soul.

It's just that an impression is an impression, but who is she? Who is it?

Maybe......

Only when I think of her can I break free from the shackles and truly recognize myself.

She's the same key.

A key that will solve all my mysteries and save me!

………

Compared with the previous three people, Tian Dahu's situation is slightly better, how can I see that the whole person has no violent reaction except for his pale face, not because he is firm in mind or because he looks down on life and death, but from the news, or Tian Dahu knows more than others, after all, through the earlier communication with Chen Fei, he learned a lot of information that others do not know, such as the Arabic numeral 36 that inexplicably appeared on his desk at present, it seems that it is also expected, but unfortunately the expectation is expected after all, when I see it with my own eyes in reality, When the number representing death really appeared in front of him, it was true that although Tian Dahu tried his best to restrain his inner fear, although he was forced to hold on on the surface, but under the table, the slightly trembling legs betrayed him, and it also showed how much fear the short and fat boy had in his heart at this moment.

The only surprise is still Tian Xiaoya.

Like the previous two times, at this moment, looking at the Arabic numerals on her desktop, looking at 33, Tian Xiaoya's face was not different, she was still as calm as before, and there was no trace of fear on her face at all.

After observing the reactions of others, Chen Wen first exhaled heavily, and then instinctively lowered his head, instinctively looking at his desk and at the desk.

Then, Chen Wen saw the numbers, and not surprisingly, he saw Arabic numerals.

Merely......

It's just that it's not the expected 38, but ......

0。

It turned out to be a big Arabic numeral 0!

Seeing this, Chen Wen was taken aback, his pupils suddenly constricted, and he was even stunned on the spot.

Why?

Yes, Chen Wen was a little dizzy, even if he was extremely smart, even if he was wise, but after seeing the numbers displayed on his desk, he was still at a loss, and the whole person was stunned, which is not to blame him for being confused, after all, there are a total of 38 students in their class, and the earlier numbers have always corresponded to the number of students, and so on, there will be corresponding numbers on the students' desks every day, just now Tian Dahu and a few people are like this, the numbers from 34 to 37 are expected, it's just ......

Why is the number on the table not the 38 I expected when it is my turn? Actually popped up 0?

Unexpected, completely unexpected.

Therefore, Chen Wen was a little confused, he was caught off guard, and fell into a state of confusion in the face of this sudden accident.

Fortunately, this confusion did not last long, and after the initial surprise and doubt, he raised his hand and habitually touched his chin, his brows furrowed slightly, and then he instinctively opened his mind and began to work rapidly.

At the same time, just as Chen Wen was staring at the numbers on the desktop and falling into thought, on the side, Tian Dahu, who had just broken free from fear, also noticed the abnormality of his friend, turned his head, and saw that Chen Wen was always staring at the desktop as if in a daze, seeing this, Tian Dahu was a little puzzled, after all, in his personal impression, numbers are numbers, no matter who it is, once the number appears on the desk, it is equivalent to being sentenced to death, and the number itself is meaningless, what else is there to care about except for the death verdict?

Having said that, at this moment, Chen Wen stared at the desktop for a long time without responding?

Is it scary? Scared silly like Li Bin's coward? No, it's impossible, judging from the recent performance of the other party, Rao is well aware of the existence of a mantis, but his buddy has always maintained his composure, much better than himself, and it can even be said that the other party is the calmest one in the whole class, and the one with the strongest observation ability, and he does not forget to analyze and look for clues in his calmness, otherwise he would not have proposed various survival methods one after another and even doubted Tian Xiaoya's true identity in the end, would such a person be scared? Taking 10,000 steps back, even if the number representing death has now surfaced on the table, out of the instinctive reaction of human beings to death, Chen Wen will be afraid, but he should not be frightened by being stupid, right?

Well?

So, with suspicion and curiosity, he put aside his cranky thoughts and followed the other party's gaze, and the short and fat boy stretched his neck to look at Chen Wen's desktop.

Then, when he saw the big number 0 on the other party's desktop, which was exactly the same as expected, Tian Dahu's eyes suddenly widened, and he was surprised, and blurted out for the first time:

"Huh? This, this...... Chen Wen, what's the number of your desks, why is this thing? ”

Obviously, similar to Chen Wen, or in addition to Chen Wen, Tian Dahu has also figured out the number and the daily appearance of numbers, just now, when I saw Sun Li is 34, Li Bin is 35, Zhao Lanting is 37, and his own 36, even if he didn't go to see Chen Wen's desktop at the beginning, the short and fat boy has instinctively determined that the other party's desktop is 100% 38, after all, there are 38 people in the whole class, and the numbers have always corresponded to the class size, I never thought about it......

To get back to the point, because he was too stunned and too puzzled, during the inquiry, Tian Dahu looked at Chen Wen with surprised eyes while pointing to the desk, he really hoped that the other party could give an explanation, but unfortunately Chen Wen, who was in a state of thinking, ignored him, still staring at the desktop, still sitting in his seat for a long time.

The so-called one stone stirred up a thousand waves, as time passed, in addition to Tian Dahu who took the lead in returning to his senses, the rest of the students who were currently in the classroom also recovered from the initial fear and sluggishness, so Tian Dahu's surprise just now inevitably attracted the attention of several other people, and sure enough, out of curiosity, after Tian Dahu, Li Bin and Zhao Lanting also walked to Chen Wen's seat, seeing that most people were like this, they forcibly stopped crying, and Sun Li also followed.

Sure enough, when the three of them saw the number 0 on Chen Wen's desktop, several people reacted similar to Tian Dahu, all staring at the desktop with surprised faces, and no one spoke for a while, however, Xu thought that this matter had nothing to do with him and Xu was too pessimistic, observing for a while, sighing, Li Bin shook his head and said in a desperate tone: "It doesn't matter, the number is meaningless, anyway, as long as there is a number on the desk, anyone will die." ”

Strictly speaking, Li Bin is right, the reason does not need to be explained at all, after several days of observation and confirmation, no matter how many numbers there are, no matter whose desk the number appears, once the number appears on the desk, then the owner of the desk will be missing! The ending is without exception, no one is alive or dead, and there is no corpse, based on this point of view, so in Li Bin's opinion, even if Chen Wen's desktop numbers are more peculiar, what can he do? What if the numbers are unexpected? What does this mean? Isn't the result the same to death?

It is also worth mentioning that due to the interference of memory, except for Chen Wen and Tian Dahu, who had been specially informed by him, the rest of the people did not know that Tian Xiaoya had escaped the death number several times in a row.

Da, da.

At the same time, in the classroom, just as Chen Wen was in a state of thinking and meditating, just as the rest of the people gathered around the table and discussed, with the sound of a series of footsteps moving, I saw Tian Xiaoya, who had been sitting in her seat in the back row of the classroom for a long time, moved, she got up and left the table, and then walked slowly towards the position where Chen Wen and everyone were.

Noticing Tian Xiaoya's approach, the other three ignored it, after all, in the eyes of Li Bin, Sun Li and Zhao Lanting, Tian Xiaoya was just an unlucky guy like them, but Tian Dahu was scared a lot, especially when the other party came closer, he instinctively shivered, and the short and fat boy hurriedly lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Tian Xiaoya, it is conceivable that for Tian Dahu, who thinks he already knows the 'truth', at this moment, he can be said to be extremely afraid of the thin girl in front of him!

As for Chen Wen......

Xu is already deep in thinking and is at a loss about everything around him, when Tian Xiaoya came closer, he did not react, did not move, still sat on his personal seat and hung his head slightly, not knowing what to think, and did not know anything about Tian Xiaoya's approach.

As the footsteps got closer and closer, soon, Tian Xiaoya and Li Bin and several others gathered in front of Chen Wen's desk, and after seeing the numbers on the desktop, for some reason, the girl's silent face that had not changed for 10,000 years showed a trace of rare color, and she seemed to also care about the obvious number 0 in front of her.

And then......

Tilting his head slightly, his gaze shifted to Chen Wen's face, who was bowing his head in contemplation in front of him.

And at this moment, staring at Chen Wen in contemplation, staring at the young man who had not moved for a long time, in a trance, not only the illusion but also did happen, if someone observed carefully, they would see the corners of Tian Xiaoya's mouth slightly raised.

………

Time continues to pass, and the environment, silent, along with the entire campus, gives people an indescribable sense of gloom.

As for the teaching building, as for the classroom of Class 2 of the third year of high school, it is also wrapped in silence now, wrapped in the indescribable gloom, dead silence is the only subject here, and depression is the only melody here, even if there are still a few students here, but, in the face of death, in the face of the imminent final fate, they are afraid, and the human instinct of fear of death prompts the next face to be like ashes.

That being said, what is the reality? At this moment, ignoring the westerly sun outside the window, ignoring everything around them, and looking at the Arabic numerals on their desks, the students were terrified, because the appearance of the numbers represented death, and it also meant that the six of them would never see the next day's sun!

However, there are no absolutes.

Just as everyone was terrified when they found out that the sun was about to set, when they saw the sun gradually setting to the west through the window, Chen Wen had already made up his mind at the same time, and then made a final decision that was extremely important to him personally and to all the remaining students!

That's ......

Tonight, he's going to put an end to it all! Get to know this thoroughly!!

Regardless of whether the end result is dead or alive!

Thinking of this, Chen Wen moved, and finally returned to reality from the long-maintained state of thinking earlier, suddenly raised his head, first looked at the slightly darkened sky outside the classroom window, and then turned back to the people around him and said a sentence, a rather surprising sentence:

"I suggest all of us don't go home tonight and spend the night here."

Hearing Chen Wen say this, the reactions of the people present were really different, that is, some people nodded silently and others were puzzled, seeing this, without waiting for others to ask, Chen Wen immediately explained:

"First of all, everyone knows that now that all of us have been cursed by the death number, if we go home separately, I am worried that those who are left alone will be more likely to be attacked by the moths, rather than this, it is better for everyone to gather together, at least, at least the chances of survival are higher than alone."

As mentioned above, since he intends to understand this time tonight, then he must find a way to bring the remaining students together, although his true intentions are not quite in line with what he said above, but his words are still very reasonable, even if there are many people in front of the mantis, the strength is equivalent to bullshit, but at least he can huddle together to keep warm, right? Take 10,000 steps back, even if the final outcome cannot be changed, but it is better to have so many people die with you than to be slaughtered by the mantis alone.

Sure enough, because Chen Wen said what was on everyone's minds, and because he had this intention, Chen Wen's voice fell, and in front, Tian Dahu, who had just turned on the classroom light, turned around first and then said first: "I support Chen Wen's suggestion, what he said makes sense, anyway, whether they go home or stay in school, they will eventually come to us, in this case, it is really better for everyone to stay in school and gather in one place to feel safer." ”

After Tian Dahu finished speaking, his eyes immediately looked at the rest of the people, however, somewhat surprised, after a moment of silence, the second person to make a statement was neither Zhao Lanting nor Li Bin nor Sun Li, but ...... Tian Xiaoya!

"I'll stay tonight too."

Tian Xiaoya stopped squeaking after just saying this, seeing that the other party also supported her suggestion, while she was suspicious, Chen Wen couldn't help but look at the girl a few more times.

It is true that it is said that the driving force is very great, not to mention what thoughts were in my heart earlier, seeing that Chen Wen, Tian Dahu and Tian Xiaoya had all decided to stay in school for the night, Zhao Lanting, who had been afraid for a long time, instinctively opened his mouth and said: "Since this is the case, then, then I will also stay." ”

Sure enough, seeing that there are now 4 people in 6 miles who agree, Li Bin and Sun Li, who were still hesitating just now, finally panicked, in order to be able to live, in order to seize the last trace of life, the two of them were also busy and nodded their heads and expressed their willingness to stay with everyone.

Confirming the approval of the opinion, at this moment, looking at the people in the classroom who were willing to stay overnight, Chen Wen nodded slightly, it seems that these people are not as stupid as he imagined, but after thinking about it, it is natural to have this result, after all, human beings belong to advanced intelligent beings, and in the face of death threats, human beings' innate instinct to huddle will still prompt them to choose a path that is most likely to survive, even if this path is not necessarily useful, but, in order to increase the chance of survival, even if it is just a hint of psychological comfort, human beings will still make this choice.

Of course, instinct is instinct, then again, in addition to Chen Wen's unknown purpose and Tian Xiaoya's unknown identity, there is another reason why the rest of the people finally decided to gather in the classroom tonight for the night, it has been confirmed many times that almost all of the students disappear in a separate state after they go home, that is to say, a single person is very vulnerable to attack, to paraphrase the terminology of war, it is easy to give the enemy a chance to break through one by one, rather than this, it is really better for everyone to gather in a group, and there is a response to danger, Even the worst can remind each other.

Shaking his head, temporarily putting aside his chaotic thoughts, his eyes shifted, looking out the window at the sky that was now slowly darkening, and then Chen Wen continued to say to everyone: "Since everyone has unanimously decided to stay, then this matter is decided, as for how to tell the family, everyone should find their own reasons, and go to the off-campus restaurant or commissary for dinner." ”

Due to the unanimity of opinion and the consensus reached, although most of the students did not have mobile phones, fortunately Lin Bin did, and soon, everyone called their families and then used various reasons to say that they would not go home tonight, as was the case with others, and the same was true for Chen Wen, however, it was a little surprising that it was ......

During the call, Tian Xiaoya always sat silently aside, without the slightest intention of calling.

Of course, he just thought about it in his heart, and Chen Wen didn't want to cause more trouble at this time.

………

The alternation of night is natural common sense, the day will not exist forever, the night will not be maintained forever, the only constant is the operation of time, with the passage of time one after another, gradually, a new round of day and night alternation is coming, maybe for others tonight is still an ordinary night, but, for Chen Wen, for the few students in the 21 middle school junior high school class 2 who are still alive, tonight, is destined to be a sleepless night.

The sun is setting and the sky is getting darker.

After about one and a half hours, when the time gradually approached 20 o'clock, when the darkness completely filled the sky, with all kinds of anxiety and mixed with trepidation, several people who had eaten dinner outside the school returned to the classroom one after another.

Li Bin and Sun Li were the last two to return to the classroom, and when they entered the classroom, they found that the rest of them were already here.

Then, there was silence, silence, and unprecedented fear.

Everyone is silent, everyone is silent, it's not that no one speaks in the middle of boredom, but there is really nothing to say, and I really don't know what to say?

Who in this world can talk and laugh with others before death is coming?

Even more tragic is ......

They can't handle it! There is not the slightest possibility of surviving and saving oneself!

The reason why I sit in the classroom and gather together now is nothing more than huddling together to keep warm, and to put it mildly, I just don't want to die alone!

Death penalty, they were all sentenced to death, and they could only wait for death to come, at most......

At most, struggle a little before you die.

At present, the huge campus is empty, and most of the classes in the teaching building are pitch black, the reason why most of them are used instead of all of them is that only the lights are bright in the classroom of Class 2 of the third year of high school, and there are 6 male and female students who look panicked sitting inside, yes, these people all have solemn expressions and look frightened, but they have not done anything, even if the atmosphere is extremely depressing, but no one has said anything from beginning to end, the reason is as mentioned above, tonight, they are going to die, who is in the mood to chat?

Feeling the silence and depression, finally, Sun Li couldn't help it first, and probably concluded that she couldn't survive tonight, and she might really not be able to resist the oppressive atmosphere, just when others were worried and vigilant one by one, Sun Li, who had been close to Li Bin, spoke, slowly raised her head, and asked her boyfriend in a tone that was both scared and reluctant: "Li Bin, if I die, will you remember me in the future?" ”

Li Bin, who was looking around nervously, didn't expect Sun Li to ask himself such a meaningless question, after hearing it, Li Bin even wanted to roar loudly on the spot, roaring whether the other party was stupid or not, after all, this mantis didn't just kill one person, but everyone present would not let go of it! If your Sun Li was killed by a mantis, then how could my surname Li be safe and sound?

Fortunately, there is indeed some affection between the two, and when they heard the voice, although they scolded in their hearts, they still whispered softly and comforted: "Don't worry, we will be fine." ”

Since he always felt that he didn't even believe in this short sentence, Xu paused in order to add more psychological comfort to himself, and the boy pointed around him and continued: "Look, there are 6 people in the classroom, plus the two of us, even if there is really a sneak attack, I think so many of us can still be prepared, as long as we survive tonight, I think...... I think we'll be able to live. ”

Sun Li nodded and replied, "Well, although I'm scared, I believe in you." ”

Listening to the conversation between the two, Tian Dahu, who had been on guard with Chen Wen not far away, couldn't help but get goosebumps, if he wasn't too nervous at the moment, with his temper, the other party's words alone would be enough to make him scold like he did during the day, after all, the situation can be said to be extremely dangerous now, and he is about to die Those two people are still playing romance dramas, which is really speechless.

It is said that people are different, in the face of the crisis, if Tian Dahu still has cranky thoughts, then for Zhao Lanting, she is afraid in addition to fear, at this moment, looking at the dark and dark night sky outside the window, the girl with glasses instinctively shuddered, in order not to further go down herself, but also to seek some comfort in her heart, her eyes shifted, turned to the empty classroom, after a little hesitation, she moved, got up and left her seat, and then walked towards the location of Chen Fei and Tian Dahu.
