Chapter 1: Island Girls (1)
"1234567, what is this?"
“7。” The little girl who squatted on the ground and scribbled casually replied with her back to the cards, and the sound of water outside the house was murmuring.
The early winter rain gradually dissipated along the edge of the window, like a drop of raw rice paper soaked with ink. Beneath the old, mottled pane sat a man in a black trench coat. He glanced at the seven of hearts on the table, and his eyebrows were as cold and handsome as snow-covered peaks in the distance. Seeing that his expression was vague, the dean deducted seven cards in a row, and promised the little girl that he would award a fawn for all the correct answers!
The little girl huddled alone at the junction of the shadows formed by the bright sky and the amber light, bowed her head, muttered to herself the baby fawn, and at the same time drew a pair of elk antlers in one go. The man in black was a little surprised to see the smooth and natural lines of the elk antlers on the ground. After a stroke, the little girl threw down the chalk in her hand, turned around and looked at the seven cards on the table, and there was a clear and distant galaxy flowing in her pupils: "5257713, red, black, red, red, red!" ”
Dean flops again, all right!
"Where's my fawn, where's my fawn!" The little girl opened her tender hands, and there was still a faint amount of chalk on her fingertips.
The dean took out a light-colored deer doll from the dark brown closet, and the little girl ran over with a puff of smoke, giggling like a string of swaying bells of happiness. The corners of the black-clothed man's lips raised in an imperceptible slight arc, and he slowly left the chair, bent down to look at the little one carefully.
The little girl is satisfied, coaxing the deer doll in her arms to sleep. Even though she is still young, the innocent temperament and supernatural abilities that break through the ordinary in her bones make her aura in his heart, especially those unusual eyes, like pure stones under the water, clear, mysterious, and sparkling.
"What's your name, little friend?"
"I'm number 42."
Seeing that the man in black was slightly stunned, the dean hurriedly smiled and added: "Mr. Yu, she only came this year, number 42, and she has not yet been officially named. ”
Mr. Yu patted the little girl's head: "What do you like best?" ”
The little girl tightened the fawn in her arms: "Fawn." ”
Mr. Yu said gently: "Then I'll call you Lu'er in the future, okay?" ”
A black Bentley started slowly and drove away from the orphanage at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain in the drizzle.
For this new journey, Lu'er doesn't seem to have a sense of disobedience. She sat in the back row and continued to play with the deer doll until she fell asleep with a light breath. The driver, Lao Liu, turned the car music to the minimum. Mr. Yu was holding a file in his hand, thinking about Lu'er's life experience, and the collar of his black trench coat was raised high, half-covering Junyi's chin:
"Her birthplace may be in the Sanxingdui area! Sixth, remember, this is the last place where the dreamwalker was found. ”
"Mr. Yu, it has been so many years that I have found a child who can be seen. I think it's her! ”
When the deer woke up, the rain had long since stopped. Under the bright sky, there is an inland river island surrounded by water on three sides, and a low-key villa can be seen standing in the middle of the island in the distance. After passing through two high-security iron gates in a row, the car was parked on the side of the unmanned road.
Mr. Yu opened the car door and carried the deer to the ground: "We walked home, and my grandmother couldn't get used to the smell of gasoline. ”
Lu'er nodded, and Mr. Yu took her white little palm and walked down the long lane to the depths. Shuzhong is elegant and beautiful, the humid air is dyed with cool and quiet pine branches, and the reflection between the flowing water and fallen leaves is shining. The housekeeper opened the door for them, and the lawn that greeted them was still well cared for by the gardener, even though it had withered and yellowed in season. Two Samoyeds with fluffy and shiny coats came running from not far away, sniffing around them.
Mr. Yu observed that the deer were not afraid of dogs, but they were not as enthusiastic as other children, and even when Satsuma wanted to lick the deer, she quietly and skillfully avoided them. The servant came over and pinned Satsuma out of the door, and Mr. Yu pushed open the door to let Lu'er in.
"Daddy, Daddy!" Two exquisitely dressed girls ran down from the second floor at Star Speed and threw themselves into Mr. Yu's arms.
Their grandmother sat in a large leather chair at the back of the living room and looked up with a smile: "Yue'er is back!" ”
Yu Yue gently pushed Lu'er to her grandmother, and the older girl took the initiative to say, "My name is Yu Qianfan, my sister's name is Yu Qianxue, what's your name?" ”
"My name is Luer."
"Deer? What's your last name? ”
Lu'er shook her head in confusion, not knowing how to answer.
"I just turned thirteen, how old are you?"
"Nine years old, maybe."
"Why is it possible?" Yu Qianxue felt very strange.
Yu Yue interrupted them: "Lu'er, one of them is four years older than you, and the other is one year older than you. You two, you'll have to take care of your sister in the future! ”
"You are all my sisters, I will take care of you in the future, you all have to listen to me!" Yu Qianfan quickly stretched out his left hand to pull up Qianxue, and then stretched out his right hand to hold Lu'er, "Let's go, I'll take you up to play!" ”
It had been half a year since Lu'er left Yufu Island again.
In the city of C, there is a large antique market in the west located in the center of the city. The Linlang Pavilion in Yuyue is also close to this area. The sixth child took the deer to the Linlang Pavilion alone. When I was about to go out, I heard Qianxue shouting why Dad only let the sixth child pick up the deer!
The two sisters of the Yu family received a private school-style education since childhood, and together with their grandmother, they lived a life isolated from the outside world on the island. I heard that it was because of their mother, who studied biology, who had been kidnapped and torn up. Later, Yu Yue built this heavily gated mansion on an island far from the city center.
The sky is high and the clouds are light, and the car drives through the lush Huanhua Park and stops outside the Linlang Pavilion not far from the antique market. The sixth took the deer into it, and the museum was not big, about 50 square meters. There are several display cases set up against the wall on three sides, and there are only some miscellaneous items in the cabinets. When the guards saw the sixth child, they immediately pulled up the blue coarse cloth curtain behind him.
Upon entering the curtain, a narrow corridor comes into view. At the end of the hallway is a storage room. The sixth tapped the walls of the storage room several times in a regular rhythm, and suddenly, the floor was opened from the inside like a portal. Brilliant lights came from below, and two rows of black-clad dungeon guards stood around the entrance. Lu'er's eyes widened in surprise as he looked at the entrance to the dungeon full of fantasy colors in front of him.
Sixth: "Miss Lu, let's go down, Mr. Yu is waiting for you." ”
As soon as the deer walked in, the portal closed automatically. In the eyes of outsiders, the Linlang Pavilion is just a small antique shop, and few people know that this is actually the entrance to a collection of underground palaces. The home of the dungeon guards inside is the corresponding entire apartment on the ground.
The first floor of the underground palace is a place for banquets. Starting from the second floor below, there are a literature room, an astronomy room, a geology and mining room, an architecture room, an armory room, a clothing room, a calligraphy and painting room, and so on. Shikaer felt that there was a world of difference between this place and the island. The mansions on the island are simple and bright, with abundant greenery; The underground palace is full of sculptures, and thousands of lights can't hide the gloomy atmosphere.
The black-clothed guard in front opened a door, and Yu Yue and a Western lady with gray eyes were sitting inside talking. The gray-eyed pupil lady stretched out her slender hands to hug Lu'er, then held Lu'er's face and said in fluent Chinese: "Is this our little strange person, these eyes are really amazingly beautiful!" ”
Lu'er pursed her mouth embarrassedly, and Yu Yue said softly, "Aunt Mia will test you later." Don't be afraid, it won't hurt. ”
Lu'er turned his head sideways, saw the silver-white testing instrument on the left, and asked uneasily, "Will you put it in my stomach?" ”
"How, baby! I definitely won't make you uncomfortable! Dr. Mia was surprised.
"When she was in the orphanage, she used to have a gastroscopy, which may have left a shadow!" Yu Yue explained to Dr. Mia.
Dr. Mia bowed slightly: "This instrument was developed by Germany during World War II on the basis of hundreds of thousands of human experiments, it does not need to penetrate into the body, and there is no radiation. ”
Yu Yue bent down and put his hands on Lu'er's shoulders: "Are you willing to believe Uncle Yu?" ”
Lu'er nodded, her eyes as clear as the early autumn sky. Yu Yue carried her to the peacock-colored chaise longue, and Dr. Mia placed the patches of the device on the deer's head and hands. After a few moments, the instrument began to make the sound of dripping running.
Dr. Mia looked at the screen of the instrument and told Yu Yue, "She has been injured in her left foot, and she has not fully recovered yet. ”
Yu Yue said in a deep voice: "Lu'er, is that so?" ”
Lu'er thought for a while: "I fell and injured myself a long time ago. ”
Dr. Mia continued, "She also had a previous traumatic injury to the left side of her head. ”
"The instrument really knows everything!" Lu'er Tan Ben sighed, "Once, I suddenly heard someone call me. As soon as I stopped, a cement bucket fell from the roof. If no one reminded at the time, it would have been miserable! But when I looked back, I couldn't find anyone who called me, and there was not a single figure on the whole road! Later, I didn't dare to go there, so I changed paths, and a log fell and hit the left side of my head. ”
Dr. Mia smiled, "Are you trying to say that the big things are small?" ”
Lu'er was very serious: "Someone was really calling me at that time!" ”
In about 20 minutes, the test was over, and the instrument output the test data of the deer one by one. Dr. Mia pulled out a map of cerebral cortex activity from a thick stack of images, and the more she looked at it, the more shocked she became: "The activity of visual cells in a normal person is between 70 and 90, and the activity of her visual area is as high as 200. The maximum measured value of the instrument is 200, which means that it is possible that she is out of the range of the instrument. ”
Yu Yue was overjoyed, and he immediately pointed to a Ming Dynasty calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall: "Lu'er, look at this painting, what can you see?" ”
Lu'er looked at the calligraphy and painting, and after a while, he shook his head in a daze.
Yu Yue picked up the deer from the recliner and pushed her small body under the calligraphy and painting: "Take a good look!"
Dr. Mia whispered in Yue's ear, "Don't you know what she thinks?" ”
Yu Yue frowned slightly: "It's strange, she should have been unintentional, but I haven't been able to use the mind-reading ability on her." ”
Dr. Mia was stunned and looked at the deer in disbelief. Such a young child was able to defend against Yu Yue's mind-reading ability.
"The people at the orphanage said that she could only see what she was interested in." Yu Yue analyzed, "Her pineal gland may only be partially opened, so sometimes she can see it, sometimes she can't!" ”
Dr. Mia's expression became more serious: "Part of it? It's beyond the scope of instrumental detection! What an incredible girl! ”
