Volume 2 Commonwealth Chapter 8 Breakup
It's also in the supermarket, but the supermarket here is even smaller, and the number of people is even sparser than the total number of people gathered yesterday.
Tianxia rubbed her eyes, it was drowsy outside, it was already evening, and another day was about to pass. She rarely goes out, and when she participates in the "Deathmatch at Sea" Global Invitational Tournament, it can be regarded as the first time she officially lives outside, but now she spends the night on the ground of a strange supermarket, or twice in a row in two different supermarkets, it's ridiculous, thinking about the recent past, Tianxia couldn't help but pat her head, she stood up tiredly, and Ciri stopped her, "Where are you going?" ”
"I'm going to go to the bathroom," she smiled wearily, "and what time is it now?" ”
"At ten o'clock, you slept straight from noon to now."
Tianxia was taken aback, she actually slept for half a day, could it be that she was too tired because of her participation in the "Death Match at Sea" before? Or did the sudden end of the day make her unwilling to spend day after day awake? Or is it that her brother's disappearance has made her lose track of time?
"Forget it, what does it matter between day and night? I just want to go to the toilet right now. ”
"I'll come with you on the big night," Ciri smiled softly, her smile completely obscured by her scarf and mask. When she was in school, her smile was always so charming, and at school, not only students, but also teachers pursued her.
Some people will be attracted by her Valian's handsome bloodline, and some people will be seduced by her identity, but Tianxia can confirm that the vast majority of people are seduced by both at the same time, so they will ignore their own identity, and they try to play the most loyal puppy under her skirt, hoping that one day they can sneak under her skirt, but our noble royal family does not wear skirts at all, which is probably the saddest thing for those men.
"Are the students gone?" Tianxia asked casually.
"No, they want to pack up their food, get some rest, and leave tomorrow, of course, I don't know where they're going."
"Since there are other people, there is no need to be so careful," she knew that Ciri was protecting each other, and it was better for the two girls to take care of each other when they were away, but she understood that those people were still students after all, and no matter how bad their hearts were, they wouldn't be so bad.
"I know what you're thinking, Tianxia," Ciri reminded politely, "but you also have to remember that there are crazy beasts among the students, and you have forgotten the former "Cherry Grove Killers"?" ”
She finally remembered the "Cherry Grove Killer". It was a mad and cruel killer who had first heard about him, who had raped and buried two high school students, a junior high school student, and a fifth-grade girl at the Federal High School in the cherry grove in the mountains behind the Federal High School.
He would first coax young girls into being alone with him with his elegant appearance, sweet snacks, gentle words, and other things that would impress them, then he would tear off his disguised masks and brutally beat the young girls, breaking their teeth, cutting off their breasts with knives, forcing them to swallow their bloody fingers, gouging out their eyes, assaulting their immature corpses, and cutting off their heads. What impressed her the most was that ---- killer was only thirteen years old and a second-year student at the federal junior high school.
When he was caught by the federal police, he was a sophomore in junior high school, and although he had only met once, she was really impressed by his memory. That was the madman in a class next to him, and one of the deceased was a very quiet and introverted little girl in his class. On the last day of her three-day picnic trip to the cherry grove led by her teacher, the quiet girl disappeared. In less than four hours, the body of the girl who was chopped off was found by several girls, one of the girls who witnessed the corpse was herself, and it was the corpse that made her still nightmares, obviously it was not her who killed people, why the dead and the murderer always found her in her dreams, which made her puzzled, and finally it could only be simply attributed to fear.
Ciri was right when she said that there were such crazy people even in junior high school, and in this increasingly chaotic situation, there wouldn't be someone who was just as crazy, but it was chilling for her to imagine that one of the students who lived in the same supermarket with her would be the next Cherry Grove Killer.
Alas, if only she hadn't mentioned the Cherry Grove Killer, now she felt like someone was staring at her in the small window, which was of course just an illusion of timidity, but it was enough to chill her heart. After hastily addressing her physical needs, she and Ciri return to their place. They saw the students huddled in the light of a supermarket, muttering something, and when they saw the two of them, Leon and the lively girl who had first noticed Ciri invited them over for a chat.
It's better to stay with these people than to face the empty darkness with Ciri, the cherry grove killer mentioned by Ciri reminds her of a childhood nightmare, but the brother who once swore to protect her young for the rest of her life is now gone, this loneliness is more like a powerful agent of fear, so she readily agrees that she must force herself not to think about the cherry grove killer before she gets sleepy, and boring topics can best dissipate the shadow in her heart.
She sat next to Ciri, the only person she knew right now, Ciri was her only reliance on the trip, and she herself clung to Ciri like a drowning man grasping at the last straw, as if she were the only savior who pulled herself out of the quagmire.
Tianxia didn't know what Ciri was thinking, and she didn't want to speculate easily, and she wouldn't trust her easily, because her brother once said, "Don't trust anyone, this is the first lesson that a smart girl should learn in society." ”
He was right, he had no idea what kind of person this Valian was. She could be a kind-hearted royal princess, or a bitch who is very good at acting, or even another masked female cherry forest killer.
It's not necessarily wrong to trust her, but it's certainly not wise, so Tianxia tries to keep herself calm and think.
She's never faced such a predicament, even after her parents died, she still had Summer to rely on, and now ...... Be vigilant day and night.....
She listened carefully to their words, forcing herself to stop thinking about these useless things in a senseless way.
"I'm going to find my father first," she swore from the schoolgirl named Ryuyu, "he must still be alive, with my mother, he's the mayor of Whitewater, protected by a large number of police," she said with a certain demagogic tone, "we'll get absolutely safe shelter there." ”
"But ......," said a shy girl, hesitantly, "the President of the Bundestag was hiding with us in the first section of the Vault, and he was on stage trying to boost morale, and many of us saw a terrible monster fall from the ceiling, and he died......." the shy girl added, "unless the man with his broken neck can be resurrected, I'm sure he's dead." ”
It turned out that the speaker of the Federal Assembly had died, Tianxia and Xiri were shocked in their hearts, but they didn't expect that the entire Earth Federation could be said to be the most influential politician died like this, and at this critical juncture, this was undoubtedly another fatal blow.
The shy girl's words left Liu Liu speechless, and after a long time, she opened her mouth sneeringly, "Because the shelter is too close to that light, it may not be the case in Whitewater City, maybe it's okay there?" ”
"I don't think it's likely," the other girl retorted, "that hood is global, and it can't be just one place." ”
"Whitewater is too far away from us," Leon gave a somewhat convincing reason in a gentle manner, "all the maglev passages, subway passages, and even air routes have been interrupted, even the airport leading to the spaceport has been shut down, and our communicators have completely failed, if you want to go to Whitewater, you must either walk over or use some old-fashioned transportation, in this case, it is better to go to the Changhe military base, yesterday many people said that they planned to go there, I think, it is safer to follow them than to venture alone." ”
Liu Liu still didn't give up, and she retorted loudly, "How do you know that the Changhe Military Base didn't fall like a refuge?" ”
"Then how do you know that Whitewater City didn't fall like a Vault? Senior Sister Liuliu, we should see the situation in front of us clearly. Leon said as she looked suggestively at Leoff, perhaps only her boyfriend could persuade this temperamental young lady.
But Liu Liu also glared back at him suggestively, but the boyfriend seemed to fall into some kind of depression, he just hung his head in depression, and did not respond to his brother or his girlfriend's eyes.
In the end, it was the shy girl who took the lead in standing up to support Li Ang, and the others echoed the idea of going to the Changhe military base.
"I have to see my father, this place is so chaotic now, we students can't take care of each other when we are alone," Liu Liu, who was forced to have no way out, couldn't help but get excited, "This is my decision, I don't ask you to support me wholeheartedly, but I still want to ask, who wants to go with me?"
Since she has made her position clear, the others can only look at each other with unkind faces. Because of Liu Liu's identity, as well as her knowledge and temper, she has always been the backbone of this small group, most of the girls in this group are good girlfriends with her, among the boys, Leov is her boyfriend, and the Mingjing Mingfu brothers are her desperate suitors, if she wants to split the team, there is no doubt that at least half of the people will be pulled away by her.
"We've been friends for many years, Sister Liuliu," Li Ang called her name, half helplessly and half pleadingly, but received no response from her.
In the end, under the witness of Tianxia and Xiri, they divided into two groups, one was led by Li Ang, who insisted on going to the military base to find out, and most of the members in it were girls and younger boys, and the other was led by Liu Liu, including the pompous boy Ah Tian, as well as the twin inscription brothers, and an unknown boy, as well as a girl, it seems, her friends were not as many as she expected, such as shy girls and lively girls, and her boyfriend Leof, The brutal fact that the three did not choose to be on her side saddened her.
"I thought you were my best friends," she asked with a hurt look on her face.
"I'm sorry," the shy girl said guiltily as she hid inside the Leon group, "my parents may have gone to a military base." ”
The lively girl stared at her unchanged, "Sister Liu, I still think Changhe is safer." "They didn't trust me as much as I thought, Liu Liu found out for the first time that her two best friends who had been following her since childhood, these two little cats who had been around her all day like puppies, finally had their own decisions, although they were stupid, but they also made her unable to be angry with them, but the last one, how could she not be angry.
"What about you, I always thought you loved me," she could no longer suppress the choking in her heart, "are you really going to leave me?" ”
