Gray memories
It was as if his eyes were closed and could not be opened, and as if they had been opened, but he was in the darkness where he could not see his fingers. Xiang Nanxing felt as if he was floating in mid-air, there was no real touch up and down, left and right, and even his head was drowsy, and he couldn't think for a while. Where is this? He didn't even realize the problem, just floated in this chaotic mental space, waiting for the moment of change.
I don't know how long it took, but in this pitch darkness, there was suddenly a little light. It was a shallow light, like a little light coming through the crack in the door, but it was enough to bring this chaotic world back to life. Xiang Nanxing swam there greedily, looking out from the light. Outside stood a woman, now with her back to him. She is wearing a tight tracksuit, with short hair, standing straight, and her back looks heroic. Opposite her were more than a dozen men in black suits, wearing sunglasses, with no expression on their faces, but there was a faint sense of tension in their postures as if they were facing a great enemy.
This back is somewhat familiar, which reminds Xiang Nanxing of a person - his mother, Xiang Yun.
Where did this happen? He seemed to be somewhat familiar with this scene, but he vaguely realized that it must have been a long time ago. At this time, these people suddenly turned their heads to look at the same side, and Xiang Nanxing saw that a person in a black suit appeared there at some point. Instead of walking towards the crowd dressed like him, he hesitated, exuding an aura of indecision. From Xiang Nanxing's point of view, he couldn't see his face clearly, but this figure also brought him a sense of familiarity.
"Who's ...... this?"
Xiang Nanxing was trying to remember, when he suddenly felt the whole world shake violently. The scene in front of him was like a piece of broken glass, which was breaking into many pieces and scattering them before his eyes.
As the fragments fall, the scene in front of you is changing. It was as if the glimmer of light pouring in under the crack in the door gradually expanded in front of him, becoming about half a meter wide, and the degree of dazzling was also reduced a lot. Xiang Nanxing felt that his eyes could see more clearly, but there were no people outside, only a wall on the side of the sight, and a fluffy blanket was pasted on it......
No, it's not a wall.
Xiang Nanxing suddenly realized that he was actually lying down, as if he was lying under the bed with his face sideways and looking from the outside. What he thought was a wall should actually be the floor of the room. At this moment, his other senses gradually recovered, and a faint smell of blood rushed into his nose, and at the same time, there was a distant sound like a mosquito fluttering. Xiang Nanxing wanted to get up, but only his body had not returned to control, and he couldn't move.
"I've been to this place ...... before"
He thought in a daze, when suddenly a light flashed through his mind, and he remembered.
It was the night he first arrived in the Republic of Zephyr not long ago.
The night that changed his fate.
Xiang Nanxing held his breath, his eyes widened, and stared out at the corner of the carpet from under the bed. From here, only this corner is slightly different from the rest of the place, and the snow-white wall extends here and suddenly changes color, becoming brown wood. Xiang Nanxing reacted, this is the door. From where his body was, if he couldn't turn his head, he could only see this corner of the door.
Although it was only a little bit, it was the only clue for him at this time. Xiang Nanxing felt that the smell of blood was getting stronger and stronger, as if a source that emanated this smell was approaching. At the same time, beneath the sound of mosquitoes flying, a slight, but rhythmic sound, slowly emerged.
A, a, a. It sounded like the second hand moving, but there was a gap of more than a second between each sound, and the sound was even moving this way. Xiang Nanxing suddenly reacted, this was not the sound of a clock, but the sound of a person with extremely light steps walking in the corridor. The sound was most likely coming from the source that smelled of blood, because when Xiang Nanxing realized that the footsteps had stopped not far away, the concentration of the smell had also reached the highest peak in history.
Then the door opened silently.
The first thing Xiang Nanxing saw was a boot. It was a black leather field boot, the tip of the boot had a hard reflective feeling, polished to a shiny, and it looked like a soldier's meticulousness, but it made the few dark red spots on it stand out. As the door opened, the smell of blood, which was already quite obvious, reached an unprecedented intensity. Xiang Nanxing was very sure that the owner of this boot must have a lot of blood on his hands.
However, he could only see the boot from his vantage point - unless the other person approached him. At this time, Xiang Nanxing's mood was a little contradictory, on the one hand, his curiosity was expecting to see more, but on the other hand, the instinct of survival called out to him loudly, telling him to know that once the other party came, his life would come to an end.
But no matter how his heart was fighting, at this moment he couldn't even move a finger, so he could only lie quietly and wait for the verdict of fate. Xiang Nanxing's eyes widened, and he saw the field boot move, and then walked into the room. Finally, a second boot came into his sight. The two boots are side by side, as if standing with their legs slightly crossed.
Then the other party's movements stopped.
Xiang Nanxing was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, obviously because the other party couldn't see anyone after entering the door, and was looking left and right. If you're lucky, if the other party sees that the room is empty, most of them will think that no one is there, and then leave-just as Xiang Nanxing was thinking like this, he suddenly remembered something.
That night, I couldn't sleep in bed, so I ran under the bed to sleep because of a quirk attack. In other words, the bedding on the bed should still be messy at this time, and it looks like someone has slept at a glance! If you don't see anyone in the room, the first thing you suspect is probably the bathroom, and the second thing you suspect is the ......
It's probably under the bed. Xiang Nanxing thought helplessly.
The boots stepped back a little at this moment, and then a hand appeared in Xiang Nanxing's eyes. The hand reached down, and the open palm was propped up on the carpet. The fingers were slender and the joints were protruding, and it looked like a tall and thin man.
Judging from this posture, the other party's next step is to squat down and look down at the bottom of the bed, so that Xiang Nanxing, who is hiding here, obviously has nothing to hide. In fact, even if he wanted to try to do something again, the body that seemed to be locked would not allow it. So before the worst situation came, Xiang Nanxing's once nervous mood miraculously calmed down. He even began to wonder about the man's appearance, and he could still be full of anticipation.
First the arms, then the shoulders, and finally the face...... However, at this moment, the other party's movements suddenly stopped. Xiang Nanxing's ears caught a faint vibration sound, and it came from the man's body. The sound was slight, but with a peculiar rhythm, and the long and short notes kept changing as if some kind of unwritten signal.
The movement lasted only three seconds, and then everything was calm. Xiang Nanxing was still guessing the mystery here, but saw that the other party suddenly moved again. This time his movements were crisp and neat, and he directly held his hand, bent halfway to the waist and bounced up, and then the pair of field boots turned around and walked towards the door.
In the next second, the other party walked out of the door quickly, and did not forget to gently close the door when leaving. This one came and went, barely making a sound. No one who is asleep will be awakened by this, so it is natural that they will not be aware that such a story has happened around them.
It's just that now, Xiang Nanxing remembered.
"At that time, I was only half-asleep, but I was not fully asleep, and I guess I still had a little bit of consciousness." He muttered, "yes, I remembered, I actually saw it at the time, but I just ignored it as the uncontrolled whims of my brain before I fell asleep." ”
"But these memories are still there, but the things I saw when I woke up after that were so horrible that the brain's protective mechanisms were activated to seal these memories that would have caused me to fall further into a panic and prevent further emotional impacts," he analyzed. ”
"But why do I remember it now?"
As he thought about this, he was once again in complete darkness. The mysterious killer's closing of the door was like a hammer, shattering the sights once again. It's just that no new scenes appeared this time, Xiang Nanxing just floated in this pure darkness, feeling his mind gradually clearer. It was as if a world was being built beneath his body, and when he regained all his senses, he felt as if he was sitting on hard ground.
"Where is this time?"
Xiang Nanxing closed and opened his eyes, but he couldn't see anything. Unlike the previous two times, this time I couldn't see anything, but my body was able to move. Xiang Nanxing felt like he had something on his head, a little heavy, he subconsciously raised his hand and touched a cold metal-like thing on his face.
"Huh? Wake up so fast. ”
The voice was somewhat familiar, with a hint of softness in its gentleness and demureness. Xiang Nanxing reacted suddenly, isn't this Mrs. Nangong who had just drunk tea face-to-face with him before!
With this sound, the world in front of him suddenly lit up. He saw that Mrs. Nangong was not far in front of him, looking at him with a faint smile. However, he also found that the picture he saw at this time was a little grainy, and it was not the same as usual.
"It's ...... VR (Virtual Reality) devices? ”
Xiang Nanxing touched the metal hood on his face and screamed.
