Chapter 2: The Scarlet Rose
"Jiujiu? Why are you here? What are you arguing about? Hu Xiaoyun walked to the door of the dormitory, and when he saw the two people lying on the ground, he couldn't help but exclaim.
"Si Ting! Yaya! Yaya! Hu Xiaoyun shook Bai Siting, who fainted at the door, and then walked quickly to the bedroom, leaned over to probe Wang Yaya's snort, couldn't help but lose color, and said in a deep voice: "Jiujiu, what happened?!" ”
"Senior sister......" Du Jiujiu looked at Hu Xiaoyun, her face was a little ugly, and she didn't know where to start.
"Jiujiu, if you can't explain things clearly, I'm going to call the police." Hu Xiaoyun's eyes looking at Du Jiujiu were full of suspicion.
At this moment, Bai Siting, who was lying at the door, slowly woke up, she scanned the surrounding situation with a pale face, tried to suppress the fear in her heart, and did not scream again. After seeing the flattened hamster at Du Jiujiu's feet, Bai Siting breathed a sigh of relief.
"Senior sister, Yaya...... She must have been bitten by this hamster in the throat...... I heard Tingting's call for help, and I was already ...... when I came" Du Jiujiu sighed and explained the incident to Hu Xiaoyun briefly.
Seeing that the look of doubt on Hu Xiaoyun's face did not subside, Bai Siting hurriedly spoke: "Senior sister, what Jiu Jiu said is true!" It's all my fault, I'm so scared that I didn't dare to go over to help Yaya, it's all my ......" As she spoke, Bai Siting cried quietly. After all, she is a pampered girl, and when she encounters such an unbelievable thing, her instinctive reaction is to run away. Wang Yaya is her good friend, but her good friend died tragically but stood by and watched, and she couldn't help but feel guilty after the incident.
"Maybe it's a genetic mutation or a virus? Anyway, let's call the police first. Hu Xiaoyun had already believed in this matter, and took out his mobile phone from his pocket.
It's just that the phone didn't go through, and it was still busy like when Du Jiujiu called the police in the morning.
"Let's go, let's go to the dormitory administrator, there's a landline in the duty room." Du Jiujiu also calmed down, what happened today was strange everywhere. Is it just a coincidence that the wriggling ones turn into red green baskets and the hamsters that attack tough people and can kill?
The three girls walked out of the dormitory together, and Bai Siting locked the door with trembling hands, so as not to let the unsuspecting students enter the scene of the destruction.
The dormitory is on the fifth floor, and the duty room is in the lobby on the first floor. As they walked all the way, no one spoke, and the silence was overwhelming.
The door of the duty room was tightly closed, Du Jiujiu knocked lightly on the door a few times, but no one in the room responded, and then she knocked hard a few times, but there was still no response. The dormitory caretaker is an aunt in her 60s, who is very kind and often wakes up early, and Du Jiujiu used to greet her every day when she went out for morning exercises.
"Aunt Wang, are you there? I opened the door myself and came in. Du Jiujiu shouted while twisting the doorknob, fortunately, the door was not locked.
Pushing open the door, there was a strong floral fragrance mixed with the smell of blood.
Pot-sized roses bloom in every corner of the room, like a garden in a magical world. And in the middle of such a beautiful flower hung a shriveled corpse, pierced through the chest by a spike, and red roses dripping with blood bloomed.
"Vomit and vomit ......" Du Jiujiu couldn't hold back anymore, and threw up desperately while holding on to the door frame.
However, just as she lowered her head, the flowers that had been motionless just now poured towards her in unison.
"Jiujiu be careful!" Hu Xiaoyun followed closely, saw the movement of the rose, quickly pulled her back to the door, and closed the door, and then there was a "knock, knock" sound from the door.
"Senior sister, what was the sound just now?" Bai Siting looked at the door of the duty room in horror, she was a little far away just now and couldn't see the house.
"The flowers in Aunt Wang's house have mutated, and she has also been ...... Let's get out of here! Hu Xiaoyun's face was covered with a heavy look: "Tingting, help me support Jiujiu." ”
"Huh? Good...... Okay, Jiujiu, hold on, let's get out of here and go find the police! Bai Siting listened to Hu Xiaoyun's words and hurriedly hugged Du Jiujiu's arm.
The three of them arrived at the door of the dormitory building with their last hope, the door was tightly closed, and looking out of the window, their last hope was shattered.
Everywhere you look, there are big trees in the sky, covering the sky and the sun, and even the morning sun can't sprinkle a trace of it. Some of the grass and flowers in the lawn are just exaggerated in size, and some of them are no longer even visible in their original form. Insects and birds can't be heard, as if thousands of eyes in the woods and grass are staring at you coldly, waiting to taste the blood when you let your guard down.
If it weren't for the shadows of the teaching building and the cafeteria that could be faintly seen in the cracks of the trees, Du Jiujiu would have thought that they had traveled to another world.
For a while, Du Jiujiu's understanding of the world that he had established in the past nineteen years was all shattered by the scene in front of him. Countless speculations crossed her mind: Was it the Big Bang in biological evolution? Or is it mutated by a foreign stimulus? Or ...... Am I dreaming?
Although Du Jiujiu herself prefers to believe that she is dreaming, the wound on her arm that still hurts faintly reminds her that everything in front of her is real.
Hu Xiaoyun was better, staring straight at the scene outside for a long time without speaking. It's like thinking about something.
Bai Siting's psychological tolerance was much worse, she rolled her eyes, and fainted directly.
Du Jiujiu suddenly figured out something, and said anxiously to Hu Xiaoyun: "Senior sister, let's go back quickly!" ”
Hu Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses, since the creatures outside have also mutated, then there must be aggressive mutated creatures, I don't know when they will attack them, the top priority is to protect yourself first.
Hu Xiaoyun and Du Jiujiu dragged Bai Siting, who fainted to the ground, back to the dormitory building. The two of them closed the door firmly, and then found two more tables to put the door on, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Jiujiu, what should we do now?" Hu Xiaoyun, who has always been calm and calm, has no idea for a while in the face of the predicament in front of him.
"There are some changes in the outside world that we don't know about, we don't know how big the scope is, the best case is that it's only in the school, in which case someone will definitely come to save us."
Du Jiujiu frowned and continued: "But I don't think there is much hope, the abnormality of the school is already obvious, but I have not received any rescue information so far, it is likely that this range is very large, S City, our country, and even the world are possible." ”
"Senior sister, you should know the news that the asteroid hit the earth last night."
"Jiujiu, what do you mean...... That asteroid caused the mutation of living things? Hu Xiaoyun's face was shocked.
"Who knows, I'm not an expert after all." Du Jiujiu smiled bitterly: "I only know that we are trapped here, with very little food, and I don't know how long we will be trapped." ”
"Don't think too much, let's call everyone in the dormitory building for a while, there is a lot of power, let's figure it out together." Hu Xiaoyun patted Du Jiujiu's shoulder.
