Chapter 219: The Island of Eclipse Rain (Twenty-Five) Heart
I sat motionless in the dark.
Outside, there was a curtain of rain, and the sky was getting brighter, and the originally dark rain curtain could already be seen dimly.
The left hand holds the wrist of the right hand, the fingertips touch the slight bulge on the skin, groping slightly, and a silhouette gradually becomes clearer and clearer in my mind, which is an "e"
It was there at first, but I remember very well that at first, it wasn't raised, just a shallow trace, and now it's a tangible, real presence.
I pressed it lightly with my fingers, and there was no special sensation, soreness or pain, none of this, just like normal skin, nothing peculiar.
But the mark itself is the most peculiar thing.
"E" represents the clue to escape and is the key to our survival. This "e" change must mean something, or we must have met some condition to make it change. It seemed like a good thing, but I became more and more flustered.
I believe that there is indeed a sixth sense in this world, which is an instinct that human beings have to understand danger, which can also be called intuition. Sometimes what is intuitively felt is often a real harbinger of truth.
I sighed, let go of my left hand gripping my wrist, and leaned my head back against the wall of the cave to look at the pitch-black ceiling.
If the sign becomes clear and concrete because we have met a certain condition, then what is that condition? Think about it, what have we done since we entered here? Or has something changed?
If I look closely, I remember that during the last rain, the sign had not yet protruded, which meant that in the six hours between the two rains, something special had happened
Within six hours, it was two things, the first was that we met the group of monkeys, and the second was the death of Wang Haobo.
If it is special that Wang Haobo's death is that he is not the first person to die, there was no change when Wen Shiming died before. But if it's special that those monkeys are monkeys?
Is there anything special about those monkeys?
I frowned and thought back to what had happened, but I couldn't think of anything special. If those monkeys are different from the monkeys I know, that's true, but if you look at it this way, those giant mosquitoes and those tiger wolves are also very special, except for being particularly ferocious, those monkeys don't seem to have anything else special.
Neither because of Wang Haobo's death nor because of those monkeys, so what is the reason for this sign to appear?
I raised my hand and pinched it in the center of my eyebrows, only to feel that these so-called clues were so troubled that I couldn't figure it out at all.
If these events are fragments, then I need something to tie them all together in order to be a clue to the escape answer. But I really don't know what such a thing is. Maybe it hasn't appeared yet, or maybe it has already appeared, but I'm at a loss.
At the same time, I also have a feeling that Lu Haisheng must know something I don't know. From the time he entered this room until now, he seems to have been constantly hiding something. Concealing this sign on his wrist doesn't want Yu Pu to know, concealing that he already knows about this mark, concealing the murderer who killed Wang Haobo, and concealing the fact that he is constantly concealing what does he really want to hide?
Maybe what Lu Haisheng is hiding is exactly what I need!
Thinking about what Lu Haisheng has been hiding all along, all his behaviors that make me feel strange are related to two things - the "e" mark and death.
Is there a connection between marking and death? If so, is it Wang Haobo's death that caused the mark to change? What does this mean?
"Mo Li?"
The sudden sound of a call interrupted my train of thought, and I came back to my senses and turned my head to look, only to find that the person who called me was Lu Haisheng.
"What's wrong?" I asked softly, "I don't need to change shifts, you can go back to sleep." ”
Lu Haisheng glanced at me, got up from the ground and walked to me, and sat down next to me, "What are you thinking?" ”
My heart jumped, I didn't expect Lu Haisheng to suddenly ask such a thing, didn't he know what I was thinking? I turned my head to look at Lu Haisheng and looked at him, but found that Lu Haisheng's face was very calm, as if he had just asked casually, and there was no deep meaning.
I was thinking about how to answer him, I couldn't just tell him that I suspected that he was hiding something from me, right? However, Lu Haisheng spoke again.
Lu Haisheng: "You haven't slept all the time, are you always ready to learn Yu Pu?" Look at the way you frown and sigh for a while, and know if you are thinking about something that annoys you again, or is it because of that kiss? ”
Listening to Lu Haisheng's words, my face suddenly began to get hot, I didn't expect this stinky and shameless person to dare to mention that kiss, I glanced at him fiercely, turned my head, thought about it and deliberately diverted the topic.
"I wonder why you're so skilled with a gun." I said this casually, but I was a little strange, "And it's not just a simple use, is it?" How many more things do you have if you can break it up so easily? ”
Lu Haisheng was silent for a while before he spoke: "I don't know, I don't know. I didn't think much about it when I took it apart, it was like instinct, and I did it easily. Later, after discovering that I was familiar with guns, I thought about it carefully, and found that my memory was vaguely related to guns. ”
"Memories related to guns?" I was slightly stunned, frowned, and asked, "But didn't you say that your memories are gone?" ”
"What disappeared was the memory of before entering the Endless Room, but the one I remembered was in the Endless Room." Lu Haisheng explained, "Actually, I can't remember a lot of memories in the endless room, and it took me a long time to remember that there was a room where I had been exposed to guns, but when I think about it carefully, it seems that I would have used a gun before that room, and I didn't learn it in that room." ”
I listened carefully to Lu Haisheng's words, and I had a vague guess in my heart.
"I remember you said that your memories are gone, but some habits and instincts haven't been forgotten, haven't they? For example, your knife throwing skills, when I first met you, I felt extremely terrifying when I saw you holding a knife" I think back to the feeling when I first met Lu Haisheng, at that time he gave me the feeling of danger and instability, I once classified him as the most dangerous type of person, and even thought that he might be a gangster murderer or something.
Thinking of this, I was stunned suddenly, since when did Lu Haisheng become no longer dangerous in my eyes, I no longer be wary of him, but I feel at ease when I think of him?
Was it when he stayed with me in the time reset? Or when you use your body to help me block damage in Fairy Tale Forest? Or had I let my guard down on him in the city of no man's land?
"Horror? When I first met you, I thought you were such a useless burden, who would have thought that now I would be asked to protect with my own life? Lu Haisheng glanced at me as he spoke, as if he had noticed that I was abnormal, and asked a little strangely, "What's wrong with you?" Mo Li? Your face doesn't look good. ”
Seeing Lu Haisheng reaching out to me, as if he wanted to touch my forehead, I hurriedly turned my head to dodge "No, no, no, I'm fine, it's okay"
I suddenly felt a wave of vertigo, accompanied by a kind of fear and helplessness, when did it start, Lu Haisheng's impression in my heart has changed so much? From being full of defense at the beginning, to now even if I know what he is deliberately hiding from me, I don't doubt that he will hurt me Lu Haisheng is not that dangerous person for me for a long time.
In fact, from the moment he said that promise, everything had already begun to change
The change was silent, unconscious, and by the time I found out now, I seemed to have lost control of my mind.
Lu Haisheng, a man who appeared in danger, saved me many times, and helped me avoid many dangers. He said to me, "I love you," and I never reciprocated that love.
If you think about it, is it because I don't respond because I am disgusted? It seems that whether it is his confession or his kiss, I don't hate and resist, those feelings of blushing, heartbeat and breathlessness, I can't find any other reason than love.
Maybe I'm already in love with him, and I didn't understand until this moment.
A hand suddenly reached over and pulled my head over, and before I could come back to my senses, I was suffocated by the face of Lu Haisheng who appeared in front of me.
"Are you really okay?" Lu Haisheng frowned, and his fingers groped my face twice, "Your face seems to be hot." ”
I hurriedly broke free of Lu Haisheng's hand, shook my head indiscriminately, and said, "I'm really fine, it's just too hot." ”
I was fine, I just suddenly understood my heart.
"I'll go to the cave to breathe, you can continue to rest, leave me alone."
I can't face this feeling for the time being, I can only run away from you and my own heart.
"I'll be fine in a minute, really, don't worry."
I don't know if this emotion is dealt with, it is born in such an environment, I don't know if it is real or if it is an illusion created by dependence.
Lu Haisheng looked at me and was silent for a long time, I even thought that he had seen through my heart. Just as I was about to turn around and run away from him, I heard him whisper.
"Go ahead, not too long."
My heart shuddered, and even though I knew he was saying not to stay in the cave for too long, I had the illusion that he was telling me not to wait too long for a response
I said yes haphazardly, and turned away as if I were running away, his last words swirling in my mind.
Don't wait too long, maybe, wait until I know if and how this relationship can go on.
