Chapter 44: Let's Socialize
Where the mirror reflected my features, there was a crack scratch that made my face look torn apart.
The elevator doors didn't close for a long time, as if they were deliberately stopping here to wait for me.
I staggered back a few steps with bated breath, away from the unusual elevator.
With each step, the pain in my feet becomes more pronounced.
The floor in the hallway was cold, and I was in such a hurry to escape that I didn't have time to put on a pair of shoes, only two socks that were not too thick to wear on my feet.
The lights in the elevator were still flickering, flickering in and out, and I vaguely saw that my face was iron blue in the mirror, bubbling with thin red veins, one by one on my face, a little like a female ghost on TV.
When I blinked again, my face in the mirror was normal, as if it was just an illusion.
"Xiaohong, can you hear me?" My voice trembled.
When I met Aunt Zhao before, there were at least people around me.
At this moment, I was alone, and the fear and anxiety in my heart were magnified.
My echo resounded in the corridor, and my words were like a stone sinking into the sea, stirring up a shallow ripple, and quickly calmed down.
The hallway was silent.
I was stuck in the hallway, unable to go home, and afraid to leave in this obviously problematic elevator.
When he was in a daze trying to figure out what to do, he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. There aren't many residents in our community, and this floor is just me and the man across the door.
So the one who opened the door would have no one else but him.
I subconsciously opened the security door next to me and hid in the corridor of the safe passage.
It seemed to me that he was not much better than the thing in the house, and if there was any difference, it was probably that the man had not done anything strange so far.
The next second, I only heard the man's voice, which was worse than a crow, hoarse, and said, "Are you hiding?" ”
Eighty percent of these words were said to me.
The door to the safe passage was hidden, and I stood on tiptoe and stepped down the stairs, keeping a cautious eye on the door for fear that someone would suddenly open it.
Footsteps sounded outside the door, and from far and near, my nervous palms were sweaty, and I even missed half a beat of breath.
"Don't go any further, those things are so scary than I am." He said again.
I didn't understand that, but I knew he was at the door. Thinking like this, he didn't dare to delay for a quarter of an hour, and quickened the pace on his feet.
The only light source in the corridor came from the slap light on the sign, but fortunately, my eyesight was not bad, and I walked to the first floor very smoothly.
I took a breath and reached for the door to open the door to the secure passage on the first floor, but before my hand could touch the doorknob, the door was already open.
In the corridor, which was not spacious, a woman with long hair walked in, probably too dim to see her face at all. I just saw that she was still holding something in her arms, and it should be a child in the posture.
As she passed me, I smelled the stench of rotting corpses. I am very familiar with this smell, and when I saw Hong Xinyi's corpse not long ago, I smelled this smell as well.
I just feel like I'm going to cry, and I've never had a time like today, when I've been so devastating, and I've come across something like this one after another.
I pretended not to see her, and walked forward calmly, but a chill was already rising on my spine, and my teeth were starting to chatter.
The woman suddenly let out a strange laugh, and her head turned sideways in a very twisted way, and although it was cold in the corridor, there was no wind in it, but the hair on her face seemed to be blown by the wind, and it was thrown to both sides.
I don't know if it was too cold or scared, my body kept shivering, and I almost ran out of the safe passage.
There was no one in the community at this time, and the cold and seeping laughter of the thing behind me still haunted me.
I glanced back and saw that she was following me, and I could see her smile on her face in the moonlight.
I didn't dare to look more, I quickly looked away, and in a blink of an eye, I saw the man who lived across from my house, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his house, overlooking us.
At that moment, I even felt as if I was a prey that had been labeled.
When I got around the corner, my feet were light, and my shoulders and waist were lifted horizontally.
Looking up, Liu Shichen's resolute face that was shaved in the night came into view, and he looked at me expressionlessly, his face was colder than the wind.
I reached out and hooked his neck, tears flowed out of my eyes, and I said glutinously, "There has been something following me, get out of here." ”
He glanced behind me, and his reaction was faint.
Looking at the position just now, the thing behind him didn't know when it disappeared, but the man on the tall building was still standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at it.
I immediately buried my head in Liu Shichen's neck, he didn't speak, but the sonorous heartbeat in my chest made me feel at ease all of a sudden.
Liu Shichen took me back to his dormitory, put me on the bed and sat down, I was relieved by this moment, and asked him, "Why are you there?" ”
"Passing by." He said.
I looked at his face, and it seemed to have lost some weight over time.
"Why did that thing leave as soon as it saw you?" I'm most afraid that the atmosphere will fall silently, and the words will jump out one by one.
He suddenly lowered his head, not knowing what he was looking at, and the fragments of his forehead hair covered his eyes. He said, "I have a lot of yang energy in me. ”
I was about to ask anything more, but I saw him turn away, and soon he came back with a bag.
Liu Shichen squatted down in front of me, took off my dirty socks, took out the medicine and wine and bandages from the bag, and bandaged me with ease.
"What's the matter with the feet?" His voice didn't fluctuate, he was polite.
I'm not stupid, and I can naturally feel the change in his attitude.
Maybe it's because Lin Yan is back, so he is in a hurry to break up the relationship with me.
"Nothing." He asked politely, and I replied respectfully.
Liu Shichen glanced at me, and there was still no emotion on his face.
After bandaging, he reached out and turned off the light in the bedroom, I was still a little scared, shrunk in the corner of the bed and asked weakly, "Can you turn on a bedside lamp?" ”
I waited a long time for an answer, and was about to lie down to rest when I was suddenly pinched on the shoulder.
Liu Shichen whispered in my ear: "Where have you been during this time?" ”
The strength of his hand was very heavy, I shook my shoulders in pain, and before I could speak, he came up and gnawed the corner of my lips again, and said, "Beat our child, leave my sight for so long, do you want to fly with that Shuangsu Shuangfei named Xu Yijin?" ”
I have never seen such a sick Liu Shichen, and I am afraid that he will hurt the child in his belly, so he always rests his hands on his lower abdomen and does not dare to let him approach.
He nestled around my neck, sucking hard, his body pressed tightly against mine, as if he wanted to melt me into my bones.
"Zhou Zhou, let's socialize." Liu Shichen brushed away my bangs with his hand, held my face and asked.
