Chapter 78: Key Props
"Your name is Yan Jing?" Xie Mimi repeated.
The man tilted his head and smiled, put the crooked bowl for her, and whispered, "Is there a problem?" β
"Nope." Xie Mimi shook her head, thought for a while, and said, "But I seem to have heard this name in my dreams. β
Yan Jing smiled and said lightly: "Maybe I'm your dream girl?" β
Although she didn't feel greasy, Xie Mimi always had a sense of disobedience, as if this expression shouldn't appear on the man in front of her.
In the afternoon, Chen Yaya also came, in fact, her friend is called Chen Ya, in order to match with herself, she called Yaya, "How about the man you introduced, is it good enough, there are two foreigners in your colleagues, the one named Jiadeli sends me things every day, I think it's ......"
She was chattering, but Xie Mimi broke out in a cold sweat, with the coolness of early autumn, which made her shiver.
The three of them walked to the hot pot restaurant outside, and the other two people ordered some dishes casually, and when it was Xie Mimi's turn, she couldn't move her hands for some reason, Chen Ya saw her strangeness and asked, "What's wrong with you?" β
"It's fine." Xie Mimi smiled reluctantly.
"How can you have heat stroke in autumn, is it an uncomfortable heart?" Chen Ya shouted at the back, the boss brought a few bottles of beer, she said, "Don't drink it, alcohol is not good for your health." β
Xie Mimi said: "I have a heart problem? β
Chen Ya took it for granted and said: "Why are you asking me, didn't you say that you had a heart bypass some time ago, could it be that you built a bridge and broke your brain?" β
Xie Mimi probed his chest, which was beating steadily, without the slightest sign of something, but the moment he put down his hand, his chest suddenly beat, and his heart seemed to jump out.
Xie Mimi took a big breath, and for a moment when her vision was blurred, she saw the blurred faces of Yan Jing and Chen Ya, and in the confusion, they seemed to have become another person.
"Mimi! Mimi! β
Waking up again, they returned to the room, and Xie Mimi rubbed her eyebrows, only to feel extremely tired.
"Chen Ya." Xie Mi asked suddenly, "What do you think about the exploding foul language?" β
Chen Ya replied with a crazy expression on her face: "Of course it's because of you're not sensitive, everyone is a good citizen with quality, how can you be rude casually." β
"Oh." Xie Mimi did not speak again.
Chen Ya was suspicious, she touched Xie Mimi's forehead, "I don't have a fever, why do you keep talking nonsense, if you have any questions, you must tell me, don't be like this, I'm too scared." β
Xie Mimi nodded absentmindedly, just saw Yan Jing smoking by the window, I don't know if it was because of the light and shadow, he looked a little stiff.
Chen Ya helped her clean up the house, made a few more dishes, and then left, Xie Mimi looked at her back, but she was in a trance.
It's obviously reality, why does she always have a sense of unreality.
"What do you do, why do you share a house with me, and what are your plans for the future?" At the first time Yan Jing walked this way, Xie Mimi had already involuntarily asked.
Yan Jing almost didn't hesitate, and replied in a low voice: "The company I opened by myself was because of Chen Ya's invitation and love at first sight, I have no plans in the future, let's take a step at a time." β
Xie Mimi stopped at the four words love at first sight and was stunned for a while, and said expressionlessly: "I know." β
Before going to bed, Xie Mimi wanted to change her clothes, but as soon as she took it off, something fell out of it, she bent down to pick it up, and found that it was a silver key, with a cold blue light shining in the middle, reflecting a faint number.
Looking at workmanship, it is not like a product of this era.
Suddenly, as if her head had been pricked by a needle, the pain that swept through her brain eroded her mind, and she saw a lot of people, the brilliant galaxy, the magnificent battleships, the overwhelming mechas, and a place called the White Question Office...... Finally, it freezes on a key.
Key!
She suddenly remembered that this was a prop that was prescribed during the joint exercise in Inle!
She bit down on her arm, convinced that the pain was real, but the cracks around her were stronger, as if she was trying to restore the real world but didn't know the essentials, the same arrangement was different.
Xie Mimi suddenly thought of Xingbai's advice, to distinguish between reality and illusion, and thought of the face of Gadeli at the end, could it be that they had already been tricked from that time? Did the Forest of Confusion do it?
Ding-dong β The hour hand points to eleven o'clock.
Xie Mimi lay down, ready to sort out the mess, but saw a video invitation sent by WeChat, she connected without thinking, and the faces inside almost made her speechless.
It was her mother, a middle-aged woman who was dressed as a fisherwoman by the sea and raised her with all her heart and was bullied to death by pirates, and the person next to her was also very familiar, it turned out to be the dead white financial octopus fish.
The woman greeted her lovingly: "Mimi, when will you come back to see, your good friends have been waiting for you for a long time, we are doing well in the village, don't worry." β
Xie Mimi reluctantly said: "I will definitely go back when I have time." β
Hanging up the phone, she stared at the white ceiling, unable to recover for a long time.
The dead mother, the dead octopus fish, the strange man who called Yan Jing's name but didn't look like it at all, one by one strange composition kept Xie Mi awake at night, she didn't understand what it meant.
Everything that seems to be ordinary reveals a strange sense of foreboding, like a treacherous dark cloud hidden in a peaceful and prosperous world, oozing terrible truths from every place.
Xie Mimi thought about the sleepiness coming, but before she could fall asleep, everything on the projector in front of her changed, as if she was acting in a thriller, a man with a long scalpel cut open a woman's stomach.
The woman was not dead, and her terrible cry made her scalp tingle, "Help! Don't do this to me! It hurts! It hurts! β
The white coat smiled gloomily, he didn't say anything, and the movements in his hands were even more rude, and then Xie Mimi watched the woman lose her breath, and the man took out a bloody heart from her chest.
The heart was still beating, and the bright red blood spread from the man's palm to the sleeve, and then flowed deeper into it, a little nauseous.
Xie Mimi suddenly felt that this scene was a little familiar, and she thought about it carefully, this was not exactly the scene where those cultists were doing biological experiments, but the tools were too backward, and they did not use medical robots, but pure human power.
Just as he was thinking about it, the man with the scalpel came to the screen and muttered, "Do you believe in eternal life?" You should give your heart to the Lord of Light! β
I'll give your grandmother's leg.
Xie Mimi unplugged the power supply with a blank face, and ripped off the projection cloth again, but it was useless, the picture was still flickering, and the man was getting closer and closer, almost coming out of the screen.
Xie Mimi covered her head, she missed the casualness of the electromagnetic cannon in the interstellar world without saying a word, and she would not make horror movies like now.
She took the time to glance at the clock, and sure enough, it pointed to twelve o'clock, it was the time when the world and the underworld were at the junction.
While he was thinking about it, the sound of a knife cutting through the glass was heard continuously, from the stairs to the doorway, and then someone knocked heavily at the door.
Xie Mimi didn't plan to watch it, from the routine of watching horror movies in groups, if she went out, she would die, and the moment she saw the cat's eyes, she could match the inhuman eyes outside, she knew how terrible it was just by thinking about it.
The voice was very loud, as if she knew that the people inside were observing him, so without stopping for a moment, Xie Mimi's fear from the beginning had become numb, and she locked the bedroom door again.
Back in his room, Xie Mimi first checked it, and did not let go of any possible clues, but the result was not satisfactory, there was nothing unusual, but there was a crumpled note in the most obvious place on the pillow, which said "Be careful under the bed".
Xie Mimi's scalp exploded, and her rich imagination made her come up with thousands of interstellar aliens in an instant, and these dullness does not mean that she is not afraid, he is also afraid of things beyond common sense, such as mucus such as mollusks and humanoids with slender hands and feet.
I didn't think about ghosts, after all, in this case, ghosts are the most unoriginal frightening element.
In his thoughts, Xie Mimi smelled a fragrance that seemed to be absent in a trance, like an incense candle, and wanted to get up to investigate, but fell asleep in the increasingly thick fragrance.
It was the second half of the night when I woke up again.
"Siss-Siss-"
The sound of rustling came from the ears, like the friction of a snake, and like a person talking in his ear, lingering around Xie Mimi, the business was as thin as a gnat, and it made people feel suffocated by being surrounded for no reason.
She sat up violently, intending to turn on the light, but she touched a soft lying object.
The slippery and cold feel reminded Xie Mimi of the corpse in the funeral home.
Hurriedly withdrew his hand, and at the same time, the woman's strange voice sounded from her head for no reason, not like a living person: "You are so fragrantββ"
The strange thing stuck to his back and swam along his spine, and goosebumps instantly appeared on Xie Mimi's body.
The reason why it is called something is because that kind of touch is obviously not a living body, and even if it is, it is beyond the scope of human understanding, because Xie Mimi is sure that she locked the door and leaned against a chair, and she did not hear the sound of the chair being knocked open.
Could this thing that appeared out of thin air have something to do with the note that says "Be careful under the bed"?
The thing climbed higher and higher, and the darkness reduced the accuracy of judging things, and Xie Mimi couldn't figure out its form, nor did he know its intentions.
Just the moment she thought about it, the thing was already entangled around her neck, and the next second, it tightened fiercely-
"You're so fragrantβ"
As this voice sounded again, Xie Mimi's physical strength gradually lost, and the person became more and more sleepy.
A second before he suffocated, he even thought about whether these monsters were repeaters.
The greater danger is in front of him, it depends on the air getting less and less, and the desire to survive makes Xie Mimi not care about nausea, so he stretches out his hand and struggles on the switch.
