The harder than expected soil made his knees bend forward unconsciously when he touched the ground, and after stabilizing his body, Yu Siqi briefly looked around his surroundings and found that this was some somewhat deserted backyard.

The weeds growing at the bottom have changed under his weight, and the rockery next to it is covered with strange and strange fungi, and judging from the color above, most of them are not low-toxicity.

Looking at the only door on the left hand side that could enter and exit, Yu Siqi, who had no choice, pushed it hard, and the door opened, and the light inside was a little dark.

As soon as Yu Siqi stepped into the house, he heard a voice that he shouldn't have heard—it was a girl, and she was saying in a weak tone, "You came just in time, I just made a bet with Reddy." He said you'd stay quietly in the transit center waiting for rescue, and I concluded you'd be here. ”

"You're not dead?" The brief light switch made Yu Siqi's eyes not so pleasant, but he had probably done it many times today, and his numb eyeballs quickly adapted to the dim light source in the room. He blinked carefully and asked as he looked at the girl sitting on the bed in front of him.

"Thanks to you, I'm still alive for the time being." The girl lifted the quilt over her body and said, "After all, I don't even have a heart." ”

Yu Siqi saw that the girl's left chest was still empty, but in the center of the hole, a metal ball covered with strange patterns was placed there, rotating as her chest breathed heaving.

"I'm sorry, but Pavadi seems to have been a little too hard." Yu Siqi couldn't bear to say when he saw the girl being destroyed like this.

"I don't know why you're apologizing for him, haven't you figured out the situation yet?" The girl pulled the quilt back to the collar and said, "We are enemies!" ”

"To correct me, it is you and him who are enemies, neither me nor Father Ann." Yu Siqi said: "I was just a passer-by who shouldn't have been, and I was forcibly drawn into this farce. ”

"It's really irresponsible, but it's very similar to your own personality." The girl suddenly touched her cheek and said thoughtfully.

Yu Siqi didn't react at first, and then he noticed that the girl touched the half of the face that he had slapped himself.

The atmosphere is starting to get awkward. At this moment, a childish-looking child walked in with a bowl that was one size bigger than his hands, and Yu Siqi noticed that he seemed to be carrying something behind his back.

The child glanced at Yu Siqi, his expression was a little subtle, but he still handed the bowl to the girl, who whispered 'thank you', and his expression was very gentle.

The child happily pulled out the huge sign from his back and wrote the phrase on it: "You're welcome." Then he quickly erased it and wrote a new phrase: "Why is this guy here?" ”

"Reddy, have you forgotten the gamble between us?" The girl took a sip of the liquid in the bowl and said, "It's so unpalatable, can't you put some sugar cubes or something like this thing?" ”

A new line appeared on the wooden sign: "Why, I lost, I'll go and clean up." The child stole a glance at Yu Siqi and wrote on the wooden plaque: "The nutrient solution must be pure to be effective!" ”

"So I hate drinking this stuff, why can't you let me lie down in the nutrition pod." The girl grumbled as she craned her neck and pinched her nose to smothering it.

"The master said that you are to blame for your failure, and you are not allowed to open the nutrition cabin for you to use." Reddy held up the modified sign, his expression very uncomfortable, "But I secretly put some nutrient solution out, and I shouldn't be discovered." ”

"That inhuman thing," the girl said as she handed the empty bowl to Reddy, "thank you so much, Reddy." I really don't know what to do without you. However, can you help me and pour me a cup of tea for this guest. As for the tea, I think I still have some in that cupboard. As for the water, I remember that there should still be snow water in the sink that you brought last time. ”

The child stuck the wooden sign behind his back and ran out of the room with an empty bowl in his hand, disappearing.

"That kid is mute, isn't he?" Yu Siqi asked concernedly.

"Not innate," said the girl lamentingly, "do you think that in a fortress with such advanced technology, there will be a physical disease that cannot be solved?" Do you think I was born blind? ”

"Do you?" Yu Siqi asked in surprise.

"If you make a mistake, you will be punished, this is the rule set by the master." The girl said bluntly: "Just like this lost heart, I will never be able to get the same ** as before." ”

"Such a brutal boss, don't you plan to resist?" Yu Siqi sincerely lobbied: "Maybe now is the right time to join us." ”

"Do you think I haven't thought about such a thing?" The girl leaned back on the bed and said, "It is for some reason that you are able to appear in my house safe and sound." Otherwise, why do you think the search party left for no reason when they saw you, and the guards on the streets were so scarce, that's why you asked Reddy. ”

"Thank you so much," Yu Siqi knew that he couldn't always be possessed by miracles, and sure enough, there were other factors in it!

Reddy, who came back with tea, even thoughtfully prepared a cushioned stool for Yu Siqi, and after Yu Siqi thanked him, he took the steaming green tea and sat down on the stool with peace of mind.

Feeling a little relaxed, he brought the tea bowl to his mouth without thinking, blew on it, and prepared to drink it.

"You're really easy to trust people, aren't you afraid that we will poison the bowl?" The girl said casually: "It's easy to suffer with such a character." ”

"I'm sure you're not that kind of person," the hot-headed Yu Siqi wanted to show his courage and courage, and despite Reddy's dissuasion and the details that the tea bowl was still very hot, he took a long sip of hot tea. As a result, his tongue was burned, and the pain from the tip of his tongue made him so excited that he didn't even hold the tea bowl steady, and fell to the ground, and the rest of the tea splashed on his trouser leg.

Yu Siqi, who was a little embarrassed, rubbed his tongue in his mouth and said vaguely: "I'm sorry, I drank too much for a while." ”

The girl stared at him for a moment, as if he were a rare animal from some circus, and then her expression began to change.

Reddy, who was wiping Yu Siqi's trouser legs, suddenly turned her head to the girl, and the two exchanged glances with each other wordlessly, nodded meaningfully, and then held up the sign and said, "You have to hide, Mark They seem to have found the traces you left behind." ”

"Mark?" Yu Siqi, who had a short circuit in his head, almost didn't remember who this was, but after briefly sorting out the chaotic thoughts in his head, he remembered, wasn't that the person who chased him before.

When Siqi asked where he was hiding, he felt that he had been dragged away. Yes, Reddy was dragging Yu Siqi's upper body in the direction of the attic with a force that did not belong to his age, not giving him any room to resist at all.

Just as he was about to complain about his ability to walk, a clear and loud knock came from below.

On the dimly lit attic steps, Reddy and Yu Siqi glanced at each other and hurried down the stairs.

Just as the boy descended to the last step, a phrase appeared on the wooden sign behind him: "Hide yourself, try not to make a noise, and I'll deal with those pesky 'bees'." ”
