Chapter 45: Once again, it's midnight
In the early morning of summer, in this quiet and uninhabited corner of the town, the three of them actually felt a little cold. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although Tu Xue'er was very reluctant, she still got out of the car according to Shi Yuan's instructions. This kind of time was supposed to be used for sleeping.
When will Tian Su appear?
Shi Yuan thought about it, and kept looking to both sides.
The last time I was here was during the day, and I just thought it was very desolate, but in the early hours of the morning, I had a different feeling.
From the point where you stand, it is pitch black at the end of the road, whether it is coming or going. Shi Yuan's heart suddenly sank, and he couldn't help but think of the incident of walking back to Dark Crow Ridge Village with Shen Han at midnight. That time, it was also a dark night, and it was also this road, the difference was that the last time it was parallel to Shen Han, this time it was with Luo Yasen and Tu Xue'er and waiting quietly.
Looking at the dark end, Shi Yuan suddenly felt that it was not an extension of a road, but a blocked dead end, where there was a black wall, the wall was uneven, full of potholes, and even the wall itself was not flat, but formed an arc. Looking up, the color of the night sky was lighter, and there was no moon or stars in the sky, but out of nowhere some light came out, setting off the outline of the black wall in front of me.
Shi Yuan was a little distracted, he forgot to change the direction of his gaze, and he stared blankly at the left end, as if he knew that something would definitely appear there.
No talking, no movement, no sound.
Until the silence was broken by the sound of footsteps.
In Shi Yuan's eyes, the blurred white appeared out of thin air at one end of the path, as if a person had emerged from the wall. The figure gradually approached, and the footsteps became clearer and clearer, and Shi Yuan finally judged that it was the reason why they were waiting here.
Tian Su, when it was less than four o'clock, walked to this established location, and the words that he had already heard once were once again sent into Shi Yuan's ears.
"Hello, meeting here shows that we are very destined. My name is Tian Su and I am a sales manager. Are you interested in taking a look at our new products? Here's our flyer. ”
Although Tian Su said this, he didn't mean to hand over the leaflet, but glanced at Tu Xue'er and said, "This one, with you?" ”
Shi Yuan didn't answer her immediately.
The answer is that it may cause task binding, so Tu Xueer has also become the task executor. If you answer no, you are lying, which may also be contrary to Ji Bu Yinuo.
"It has nothing to do with you, does it?" Shi Yuan finally said.
"Yes, it really doesn't matter," Tian Su said with a smile, "Are you interested in our products?" ”
"Give me a flyer." Shi Yuan said.
"It's not difficult, as long as you buy our company's new drink. Do you want to buy our products? As long as you agree to buy it, we can go immediately, and I will hand you the flyer after the purchase. ”
"Get in the car and go to your point of sale."
Tian Su's smile was even brighter, and he held a stack of leaflets tightly with his arms, and followed Shi Yuan and the others into the car. During this whole process, Tu Xue'er was sleepy, didn't speak, and didn't even listen to them.
It also took a lot of time to get from the small road in the northeast corner to the southernmost point of sale.
When we arrived at the point of sale, it was not yet dawn, and the house was even more eerie.
When I got the leaflet, it was already past five o'clock, and three items had been found, which was already very fast compared to the last time, but Shi Yuan and Luo Yasen did not relax at all. However, the remaining locations - the market building, the speed of life and death, the willow restaurant, the ghost graphic society - have not yet opened. Although Huitian Hospital is open 24 hours a day, it must be set as the last location.
Shi Yuan's decision was to rest for three hours.
The search for the rest of the items went relatively smoothly, and it was only 11 o'clock at noon when I got seven items.
"Time seems to be plentiful. Why don't we eat first and then continue? Luo Yasen said.
"It's sufficient. The last thing you need is a certain patient, that is, Xin Xuecheng. I have an idea, in fact, we don't have to take Xin Xuecheng to a specific place when midnight comes, we just need to make sure that all eight items should be around us at midnight. In other words, we don't even need Xin Xuecheng to wake up, as long as we get to his hospital room and stand next to him, it should be done. Shi Yuan said.
"Let's be more cautious, we'd better hold on to his arm or something."
"But...... What if his family is there this time? Also, last time there was no one at the front desk, but now it's daytime, and the possibility of someone on duty is still very high. ”
"Let's take one step at a time, it's impossible to know everything right now. While we have enough time, we should replenish our strength, and then go to Huitian Hospital to see the opportunity to act. Luo Yasen said.
"Well," Shi Yuan nodded, "let's do it." ”
Eat, sleep, and then rush to Huitian Hospital before eleven o'clock.
They can no longer care about the complete chaos of their schedules, in their eyes, there are only tasks. Task represents hope.
Huitian Hospital is still empty. Not only the lobby and the front desk, Shi Yuan paid attention to the wards and doctors' offices along the way, and he didn't see anyone, as if this hospital was abandoned.
But Xin Xuecheng was still there, and he was lying flat on the hospital bed in his hospital room.
At this point, there is still an hour left before the end of the twenty-four-hour time limit.
What can be done?
Shi Yuan carefully took out all the items he had obtained, leaflets, blue USB sticks, specific photos, a map of Gravel Town, bloodstained packages and lists, a membership card for the Magic Internet Café, and the blood orange that he had just taken out of Luo Yasen's pocket. After counting, he put everything in his backpack and held it in his arms with his left arm.
That's right, that's it. Next, just wait for zero o'clock to come, and hold the patient's arm.
Tu Xue'er had already fallen asleep next to her, she sat on the chair, put her arms on the back of the chair, and fell asleep as soon as she sat down. From the beginning to the present, Tu Xue'er has been in a state of sleepiness and has hardly said anything.
Time passed slowly, and midnight was finally approaching.
Shi Yuan gradually became a little nervous, but this time the tension was too light and light compared to the last time.
At 11:59:50, Shi Yuan unconsciously started the countdown in his heart.
All the items, not a bad one.
Shi Yuan stared at his watch, watching the second hand and the hour hand gradually coincide.
