Chapter 5 Goodness is the Truth
Whew, I gasped a few times, looked around to make sure the banshee wouldn't be around, and relaxed a little to stand leaning against the vending machine.
Ten minutes ago, I ran out of the dormitory almost by running, and although I already knew the identity of the banshee and confirmed that she would not 'do anything' to herself, running away in the face of danger was almost the only knee-jerk reaction left by humans. For example, even if you know that the Leaning Tower of Pisa won't fall, how many people can actually sleep peacefully under it!
I dug into my pocket, took out the only big red bill with body temperature from my pocket, and my eyes were as solemn as if I had accepted the task given to me by the party organization.
When I took a few 'hard tickets' that popped up in the vending machine, I felt uncomfortable, not to mention how uncomfortable it was, this kind of grievance is not something that everyone can enjoy, and I have cultivated this 'karma' for several lifetimes. At that moment I thought of my girlfriend first, I had never been so nice to her, if possible, try to make up for her in the future.
While I was thinking, a voice came into my ears.
"Hey, Zhang Yi, why are you mentioning so many drinks? Are you going to empty the vending machine? Can you move so much? Come, I'll help you!" said classmate Wang De waved his hand on the side.
I temporarily withdrew from my thinking mode and forced a smile: "Go play, you look down on me, look at me!"
I remembered the prelude of a certain martial arts master before he started, learning to twist his neck and fiddling with his fingers a few times, although it didn't burst into a crisp sound, it was full of style.
"Get up!" I was struggling to carry more than 20 bottles of carbonated drinks wrapped in two layers of plastic bags, and the green tendons in my hands were already bursting out.
Fortunately, I still have some strength, and of course 20 bottles of drinks are not a problem. But even so, if I want to put it on the back burner, I wish someone would have helped me mention it, but not today, what if I return to the dormitory, and the banshee is drawing eyebrows and sideburns in front of the grooming mirror, in order to prevent these possibilities from happening, I can only grieve myself.
Seeing that I was so 'unkind', Wang De walked away by himself, and I sighed endlessly while struggling to carry a drink.
Why did you buy so much, the banshee didn't let me buy so much, I couldn't help but ask myself, it's a red and glamorous ticket, how can I be willing to put it into the vending machine?
What I want to sue you is that this has something to do with my family's education that I have received since I was a child, since the things that people have given me, if you have the ability, then you have to do it, do it beautifully, let you do whatever you want, do as much as possible, even if people don't praise you, they won't blame you.
...... Well, in fact, I didn't think about it that much, four words, life is important, yes, life is important.
I'm thinking about a hundred bucks for a peace if I could, but is it possible......?
Chirping......
I pushed the door open, the dormitory is still empty, and the banshee is not there, of course, I can't be sure whether it is invisible or really absent, thinking that the banshee may appear at any time, I am vigilant all around, for fear that if one is not careful, the little heart will be scared out by her sudden appearance.
After a while, the banshee still didn't show up, so I decided to stuff the drink into my empty cupboard first.
When I opened the cupboard, I found that there was already something inside, it was a white plastic bag, who could have put it here? Huh? It looks like I've seen it somewhere, I muttered, let's take it out first.
I pulled out the plastic bag bracelet, yo, it's quite heavy, what is it? I slowly opened it......
Wow!! ah!!
I howled twice and threw the plastic bag aside, quickly retreated, and stumbled to the ground.
A hand, a hand!!
The plastic bag was thrown to the ground under the influence of gravity, and the two hands that wrapped it fell out of it.
It may be that the various extraordinary experiences in the past few days made me calm down immediately, and I simply cleaned up my mood, I slowly crawled over, trembling and swallowing saliva, I still couldn't help but look at it.
The bloody palm of the hand was shriveled as if it had been sucked by something, and the dried blood formed distinct marks on the hand, and the broken shape of the index finger nail seemed to cry out some facts.
The banshee, yes, it must have been the banshee, ah! I see, she first pretended to want a drink and asked me to buy it, and then she wrapped the hands of people who had been sucked of blood in plastic bags and put them in the cabinet, and she must have done so to demonstrate to me, as if to say: if you dare not listen to me, this is the end...... Damn, my heart was beating more and more...... But how did she know that this was my cabinet and was sure that I would open the plastic bag and see the corpse? Hehe, she must have secretly observed my life, otherwise why would she have disappeared when I came back from buying a drink? Yes, it must have been!!
Hehe, why am I so miserable, do I have to give an account to this banshee in this life?
When I was frowning, suddenly, my heart seemed to have been aged, as if I had encountered something that was not particularly frightening, as if I had read all the vicissitudes of sophistication. I immediately decided that in order to avoid trouble, I would first hide the corpse in a place unknown to my roommates, and then clean up the 'scene' without leaving a trace, and finally, when the situation was stable and the banshee appeared, it would be a big deal to have a showdown with her.
Instant calm,This seems to be a passive skill unique to every protagonist in order to survive.,Its characteristics are:Once you encounter an emergency,No matter what the nature of the situation is,,Will be temporarily calm.,And calmly deal with the incident with the sudden increase in IQ at that time.。 Of course, it is impossible without sequelae, and every time I recall the situation at that time, my body shuddered involuntarily.
In the evening, I didn't go to the study room, and when my roommates all went out, I waited for the banshee to appear.
The night breeze was blowing, and the windows on the balcony were creaking, and I thought, this kind of shot was a sign that something was coming.
Yes, she came, without a sound, and I could feel her coming, nothing more than the hands that were on me again.
Weak, boneless hands, with cold skimming across my neck, my passive skills were silently activated at this moment.
Without the slightest hesitation, I grabbed her hand, and no matter how stern her expression was, I would directly face the creatures of the other world.
"You eat people?!" I asked her angrily.
"What?" she replied, confused, and then tilted her head to continue, ignoring my questioning, "You don't seem to be the same as you were in the afternoon, you don't fear me anymore, by the way, did you buy my bubble water?"
"Don't change the subject and say, did you do the corpse in my cupboard?" I said coldly.
The banshee said, "What kind of corpse?"
I thought to myself, and I wanted to pretend that I didn't know, I had already opened up, and what else was I afraid of.
There was no one in the dormitory now, so for the sake of prudence, I still checked the dormitory, and after confirming that there was no one, I locked the dormitory door and pulled out a white plastic bag from the hidden corner next to the garbage can in the corner.
"Now, do you dare to quibble?" I proudly took out the evidence, as if she dared to quibble again, what could I really do to her.
The banshee opened the bag, frowned, looked disgusted, and motioned for me to take it quickly.
"You're disgusting!" the banshee said to me in a disgusted tone.
What? She actually thinks this thing is my 'work'.
"Hey, don't bite back?" I feel that this banshee is quite shameless, and she will not admit the evidence in front of her.
"Ah, I see, you mean, I did it??well, well......" The banshee waved her hand impatiently, "You humans are all virtuous," and vanished.
With my current IQ, I still don't understand what this sentence means, but I'm a little skeptical about the reliability of the inference that 'banshees eat people'.
First of all, this inference is based on the fact that 'I found the remains in the cupboard' and 'I recently met a banshee', and the probability of both appearing at the same time is theoretically small, secondly, the banshee disappeared when I came back from buying a drink, and the appearance is suspicious, and secondly, the monster eats people, which has long been played on TV, which is just a normal thing for human cognition.
I think I've found the argument to refute this inference, and that is the phrase 'You all humans are virtuous', and I may not understand what it means now, but looking at the banshee's expression, my intuition tells me that she can't eat people.
If it was really the person she ate, this matter would be easy to do, just let her eat cleanly, even I, an insider, would eat it together, worry-free.
But since it's not her, who would do such a heartbreaking thing, the key is that it was still in my cabinet afterwards, this is to blame me!
The more I thought about it, the more anxious I became, and the passive skills disappeared without a trace after the banshee left.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and I quickly threw the white plastic bag into the corner, blocked it with a broom, and shouted, "Come later." ”
Kara, the door opened, it was Su Tang.
He ignored me, walked into the dorm, walked straight to my cabinet, and opened it.
"Hey, where's my stuff?" Su Tang looked around, but there was no reason.
I seemed to understand something, and asked, "Brother Tang, what are you looking for?"
"Oh, it's just a white plastic bag, I was going to put it in my cabinet at noon, but my cabinet has a lot of things, and when I see that your cabinet is empty, I borrowed it, Brother Yi, have you seen it?"
"Do you know what's in there?" I asked him in a panic.
"Of course, I bought a high-imitation artificial leather prosthesis on a certain treasure, and I wanted to let you see it today. Su Tang pouted.
"Fake, prosthetic?" I looked at me with some remorse.
"Well, did you see that?"
I turned my back to him and pointed my hand toward the corner.
Su Tang walked to the corner, picked up the broom and picked up the plastic bag, rubbed it, and said distressedly: "Yo, my good baby, you have suffered" and then turned his head to me and said angrily, "Why are you, make it like this, fortunately, the quality is good and there is no damage." ”
"This, this can't be all blamed on me, when I first opened it, I thought it was a real hand, scared me to death, and thought that someone would take revenge on me, I thought to myself that I hadn't offended anyone!" I smiled wryly.
"Oh, that's it" Su Tang replied simply, but he couldn't hide the joy in his heart, it seems that this 'simulated prosthetic' is really realistic.
Now, the possibility of someone putting the 'corpse' in my cabinet to blame is eliminated, and I finally let go of my heart, but the problem is again, I have wronged the banshee, what should I do.
It turns out that the banshees may really not be cannibalistic.
