Chapter 4: Appetite
"Boss, come to today's morning newspaper, is there any big news in the city in the past two days?"
"What's the big news, it's not just that bit of bullshit, the people are busy supporting their families day and night, and the officials are so idle that they are in meetings all day long. ”
"No, two days ago, I heard from a buddy that there was a truck on the other side of East Street that crushed people to death, and a very beautiful girl was crushed to pieces, and the blood all over the ground was so miserable, why didn't it be reported?"
"Crush people to death? Do you just talk about it, I haven't seen my daily news report rotten, your buddy is, if such a big thing happens in our slap-sized city, won't it be crazy long ago?"
"Really not?" I was a little stunned, when I left that night, it was clear that the ground was covered with blood, and Shaohua's broken limbs were still vivid, why was it not found?
Although that street is near the factory area, it is very secluded at night, but during the day, there should always be workers at work to find out, right? Could it be that the driver who caused the accident came back to clean up? No, the grandson ran away more than me.
Or...... I couldn't help but shudder, but immediately denied this inference, that night I watched her lower body shatter, lying in a pool of blood and not moving, and finally I went up and kicked and didn't react, it was impossible to be alive, that would be......
Doubts are doubts, and you want me to go back and find out what is going on...... To be honest, I don't have the guts, not to mention that the more bland this matter is, the better, no matter who disposed of Shaohua's body, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with me, I just want to forget all this and return to my previous normal life.
Though...... It's so hard, I touch my cold and heartless chest, I'm dead, can I go back to the way I was?
I don't know, I just don't want to become a monster like Shaohua, even if my body dies, I hope that my life in the future can be as normal as possible.
So, I went back to work.
"Are you here?" the manager asked, frowning.
"Mmmm, thank you manager for your concern, I'm all right. I replied against my will, what a fart, my current situation couldn't be more miserable, the face is white, the body is cold, and the eyes are red......
Well, I brought sunglasses and a mask, otherwise it would have been a rush in broad daylight.
The manager was originally prepared to reprimand me, but after seeing my appearance, the words came to his lips and changed his tone.
"Xiao Li, you usually work hard, I won't say anything about you in this matter, pay attention in the future......! Are you really sick? Although you will deduct your salary for taking sick leave, don't force it, don't ......."
The manager didn't say any more, but I understood that he told me not to die of illness in the company, otherwise I would be in trouble, but he didn't have to worry about this at all, because ......
Don't worry, my brother has already died!
All day, I just lay on my desk, flipping through the customer directories that I hadn't contacted for a few days, but I wasn't even in the mood for work, and my mind was always thinking about my own body.
I'm dead, and I'm a corpse who doesn't know what it is, huh...... It should be similar to the zombies in the movie, but it doesn't look so disgusting and disgusting, at least not yet.
So what will I do with my life for the rest of my life? I have a lot of problems that I can't solve.
First of all, I can't let people see my current appearance, although the weather is very cold for the time being, and the sunglasses and mask can be covered up a little, but what about the future? I can't wear sunglasses at night, and I can't take off my mask in the summer.
The bigger problem is my body temperature and heartbeat, I hardly dare to approach others now, I dare not shake hands with people, I dare not hook up with colleagues in the company who have a good relationship, and I don't even dare to squeeze the bus to work, I still ran here this morning.
I can't help but think of Shaohua, although her corpse demon nature is more terrifying than my current one, but she is usually a well-behaved and cute girl, and she almost ate me sexually, if you don't help her take her temperature and heartbeat, it is impossible to find out that she is a corpse demon.
How did she do it? The color of her skin, her blood-red pupils, how did she hide it? Perhaps, I should go buy some men's cosmetics after work, if the color of her pupils ...... Try contact lenses?
All of the above is easier to do, it's just to cover up my current identity as a corpse demon, and then there's the real problem, I ...... I'm really hungry.
No matter how unwilling I am, I have to admit that I am not a human now, and it seems that because of this, I can't swallow human food at all, whether it is noodles or rice, vegetables or melons and fruits, or even meat......
The only thing I can do now is drink water, keep drinking, and it can only be plain water, and I will vomit out all these things, but this is useless, and I can't suppress the unbearable hunger with Ben.
Moreover, I found that the water I drank was not absorbed by the body at all, and I couldn't help but go to the toilet after less than ten minutes after a glass of water, so I could only drink again, go to the toilet again, and continue to drink...... But I'm still hungry.
I remembered Shaohua's words again, she said that the food of the corpse demon is human internal organs, and the drink is human blood, but ...... Do you want me to kill someone? Eat it openly......
I'm just an ordinary dick, not to mention I don't have the guts to kill, even if you put a corpse in front of me for me to eat, I guess I'll only be scared out of my stomach, and I don't even dare to watch the dissection videos and pictures on those hardcore websites.
I really don't know what to do, I can only continue to drink water, drink my thirty-eighth glass of water today, and ten minutes later, go to my thirty-eighth toilet for today.
"Li Yang, what are you doing, even if you want to be lazy, you don't have to run to the toilet all the time, or do you have a lot of kidney deficiency recently?" A laugh and a big hand slammed on my shoulder.
"Don't ...... Don't touch me. I was so frightened that I hurriedly opened his hand, for fear of discovering the abnormality of my body.
"Rub, you're not a, what's wrong with Bumper?" the man said unhappily.
"Don't make a fuss, you don't know that Li Yang is sick today and hasn't even eaten lunch. Another girl came over, handed me a beautiful little lunch box and said, "Oh, I left a few siu mai for you, do you want to eat it?"
"No, I'm not hungry yet. I smiled wryly, and a gurgling voice protested against my unwillful remarks, and I had to continue to explain: "I don't know what's wrong today, I want to vomit everything I eat, and I have no appetite at all." ”
"Tu, Li Yang, you shouldn't have it, haha!" The man next to me laughed again, but I could only smile bitterly.
The man's name is Zhou Hao.,It's probably because of the same dick.,We were good in college.,After graduation, we came to work in this company together.,It's a dead friend of the best.。
The girl's name is Sun Yun, she is a childhood sweetheart who grew up with me, she studied elementary school and junior high school together, and she was at the same table for nine years, and she was admitted to the city's key high school together.
Both of them are my best friends, care is inevitable, all day long shushing the cold and asking for warmth, it is said that during the three days I took leave, they also ran to visit my house several times, but unfortunately, I died at that time......
"Li Yang, are you really okay?Why don't you ask for leave this afternoon, and I'll accompany you to the hospital to have a look?" Sun Yun frowned, reaching out to touch my forehead.
"Don't touch it, I'm fine. I hurriedly dodged away, depressed and almost crying, knowing that friends should not be so separated, but only them, I would rather die than be found out about the weirdness of my body, I don't want to be found out the secret that I have died.
Sun Yun's face was a little embarrassed, and Zhou Hao also frowned and said: "Li Yang, are you really okay? You really don't want to eat? Is it that the food in the canteen is not to your taste? Why don't you have a dinner in the evening and let Sun Yun help you make some delicious supplements, you can always rest assured of her craftsmanship." ”
"It's okay, it's almost time to get off work, let's go to the vegetable market together, Li Yang can buy whatever he wants. Sun Yun also agreed, and rolled up her sleeves as if she wanted to show off her skills.
I really didn't want to go, but I couldn't refuse the invitation of my two best friends, so I had to reluctantly agree, but what did I really want to eat? I don't know if there are any barbecued pork buns sold in the vegetable market......
"How much is a pound of tomatoes?" I remember that Li Yang likes to eat tomato scrambled eggs, right?" Sun Yun picked up a bright red tomato and asked with a smile.
"Hmm. I nodded, staring at the red thing, tempted to fantasize it as bloody, but when I lowered my head and sniffed it......
Covering my mouth, I turned my head to the side, it seemed that tonight's dinner would be my biggest nightmare.
"Boss, bring me two more lettuce, I'm going to make a vegetable salad, and I'll have a few potatoes, by the way, are there garlic sprouts......?
Sun Yun is really a standard housewife, as soon as she arrived at the vegetable market, she mingled with the vendors, and dragged Zhou Hao to help bargain, only I was in no mood to wander around.
"The pork ribs are cheap, the old lady buys two catties and goes back to cook the soup? It's very fresh, why don't you look at the pork heart and pork liver? "A hawker's shouting attracted Oh, pig heart and liver?" I moved and walked past the crowd.
At the meat stall, a large pile of pork belly and pork ribs were placed together in a mess, but I was not interested, just squinted at the pig heart carried by the vendor and said, "Can the boss show me......?" Can you smell it?"
"I'm afraid it's not fresh, I just sent it, you see the blood hasn't dried up. ”
"No, I am...... I want to smell it. ”
"That's okay, just smell it, don't swallow it raw. The peddler teased, handing over the pig's heart.
I don't want to eat ordinary food, even if I just smell it, I will feel nauseous, such as tomatoes and potatoes, but when I carry this bloodshot pig's heart, I feel ...... I swallowed and foamed, and a strong appetite welled up.
At the same time, the gurgling sound in my stomach became stronger, and even I felt that my eyes were getting redder and redder, and even my sunglasses were about to be hidden.
"Boss, I want the pig heart, the pig liver, and all the internal organs, but as long as the freshest is the bloodshot kind, how much does it cost?" I asked, licking my lips.
"Yo, buddy is bold enough, I like to eat this, right? Okay, I'll give you half the price of the pig heart and liver, or the pork kidney?
"Yes, all of them, you can just help me calculate the price, hurry up. I couldn't wait to urge, and my pupils under my sunglasses were getting redder and redder.
