Chapter 379: Gas Station
.”
"No, it's absolutely not going to work!"
Hearing these fierce objections, Chris looked at his wife who was resolutely opposed, and also felt a little headache.
As an old couple for many years, Chris knew from Rose's fierce performance that Rose would not agree to the priest's request no matter what.
"Rose!"
Chris glanced back to see Brother John and Sister Irene standing quietly beside the priest.
"You know, there's really nothing we can do about it."
Hearing this, Rose bit her lip and looked at Sharon, who was sleeping on a row of stools again with a coat on her body, of course she knew what Chris meant.
There's really nothing they can do about it.
They paid a lot of money, even the previous house was sold, and it took a lot of time, but there was no hope at all for Sharon's condition.
Famous and competent doctors, they didn't have to look for them, and the final recommendation was to put Sharon in psychiatric supervision.
She would never heed this advice because she felt that her daughter would never be mentally ill.
From the note given by the priest, she had a strong hunch that Sharon's condition was definitely related to Silent Hill.
That doesn't mean she agrees with Sharon to go to Silent Hill with the priest without her parents.
It's not a matter of trust or distrust, because she's Sharon's mother, and she loves Sharon, even if Sharon isn't her biological daughter.
"We don't have a choice." Chris sighed as he looked at the changing expression on Rose's face.
"I think this is the last step to cure Sharon, and I believe Father York."
Hearing this, Rose did not let go, but looked at the priests in the depths.
——
"Bishop, are you going to go it alone?" Looking at the bishop, who was still flipping through the physics books, Erin asked in a whisper.
As soon as these words came out, John Wick also looked at the bishop.
There was something in the eyes of the two, and York could only take the book in his hand, stop looking at it, meet the eyes of the two, and said indifferently.
"This matter is a bit special, I am enough alone, you can stay here."
Erin looked at John Wick, and the two looked at each other, but they could only choose to give up
They all know the character of the bishop.
"Yes." Erin and John Wick nodded.
Yorkes smiled, turned back to meet the third somewhat stubborn gaze, remembered the couple's exchange, and sighed silently.
"That's it."
“.”
——
The sun is shining and the breeze is blowing, making people feel refreshed, as if the whole world has become brighter, and people can feel the breath of revival, hope and vitality of all things.
This is the weather that is almost in May, the last month of spring.
On the road to West Virginia, a muscle car hurtles down an empty road.
This is the United States, where there are few people and there is a lot of land, and once you drive to the middle of nowhere, you will end up with only one car left on the highway.
That's probably why there are so many road thrillers in the United States, but fortunately it's still quite vast, and there shouldn't be any terrifying ogres like the deadly bends.
York, who knew what was going on in the stereogram, sat in the back seat, glanced down at Sharon on his lap, and then continued to pick up his phone and flip through it.
"Hey, hey, hey! Why don't you call me when you go out! ”
"Ahhh No conscience! ”
“.”
Ignoring Hannah's message in the chat box, York clicks on the folder inside.
Since this guy got mixed with him, after experiencing the work of volunteers, it didn't take long for him to start returning to his previous life, black and white upside down.
Either playing with psychic sculptors, a mysterious dollhouse, or working as an intelligence dealer, he kind of gave up on this guy.
Not reluctantly, not forced, just as he would not make John Wick give up the money he had earned with his life, but would make him follow his heart, accept and enjoy his life.
The folder clicked, revealing the information Hannah had collected for him.
Although he is very familiar with Silent Hill with the memory of his previous life, this world seems to be different, so there is absolutely no problem in reviewing it.
Looking at the photo of a small town above, York's eyebrows were slightly raised.
This is not much different from the information he had about Silent Hill in his previous life.
A few decades ago, a fire ignited a coal mine in the local underground area, and soon the fire spread instantly, killing countless residents.
The combustion produced so much of the toxic gas that the surviving residents moved away from Silent Hill one after another.
More seriously, and worse, the underground coal burns slowly and persistently, and the flame has not been extinguished until now.
So Silent Hill, this town has long been a deserted ghost.
After looking at it and confirming that there was not much difference from the memory of his previous life, York stopped looking at it.
But I already had this information in my head.
What genre is Silent Hill? It's a horror thriller, so naturally it has to be weird.
Except for those who accidentally hid in the church and found that the church could stop Aleisa's cult and some surviving residents, everyone in Silent Hill was basically killed by Alesha.
Death is death, but these people killed by Aletha become some kind of tool for her.
Aletha used her spirit to transform these people into various monsters, so that they could not be reincarnated for eternity.
As soon as he thought of this, York put away his phone, looked at little Sharon who was just looking at him quietly with a pair of big eyes open, and smiled.
"Awake?"
Little Sharon blinked, nodded, and sat up.
This movement also made the person driving in front of her notice, Rose secretly glanced in the car rearview mirror, Sharon was still sleeping on the way, but unlike before, she slept very peacefully, and there was no sign of sleepwalking at all.
I don't know if it's because of the priest's existence that caused this result, but no matter what, this point also made her feel a lot more relieved.
"Did you dream about anything?" Yorkswie said.
Little Sharon continued to shake her head, just looked at the priest next to her, pursed her lips, and said in a low voice.
"Father, is there a serious problem with me? I've slept a lot lately. ”
"No, it's not serious at all." Yorkswie said.
"Kid, you don't mind what happened before, no matter what the doctor judges, it's obviously wrong, you believe me, right?"
Little Sharon didn't blink her eyes, just looked at the priest, and finally smiled and nodded vigorously.
However, she squirmed a little, secretly glanced at the front seat, and whispered.
"Can I do without the medicine?"
She knew that her parents listened to the priest.
York smiled: "Of course, kid, from now on, you can do without medicine." ”
Little Sharon suddenly cheered up and sighed.
The corners of Rose's mouth lifted slightly, his chest heaved and heaved, and he withdrew his gaze from the car mirror.
Unconsciously, her heart was filled with a kind of hope, from the beginning of the church to the present, she always felt that under the leadership of this calm and calm priest, Sharon's illness could really be cured.
York smiled at Sharon, glanced at the front seat, then picked up a pile of books on the side shelf, and picked up a book.
From New York to West Virginia, there are at least a few hundred kilometers.
According to the estimate of the movie and the information found, it is estimated that it will not be until the evening to reach Silent Hill.
This time is enough for him to read these dozen books, and there is still a leftover.
Without him, his body mutated into this ghost under the increase in health, and his brain was probably no longer a human brain.
At a glance, he understood the meaning of this page, understood the theories in it, and absorbed them all, so his page turning speed was naturally very fast.
Little Sharon, who had just been excited for a while, saw the priest like this, and also took out her tools to pass the time from the side.
Drawing paper and colored pens, she loves to draw.
For a moment, the car regained its calm and sped towards its destination at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour.
——
I don't know how long it took, but it started to get dark.
The depths ahead have long been unclear, Rose exhaled lightly, if driving is only for a while, it is fine, but after driving for a long time, it is very tired.
The truck next to her sped by, and at this time, she secretly glanced in the rearview mirror again.
Her daughter began to sleep again, still resting on the priest's lap, I don't know if it was too comfortable, but Sharon's sleeping face was peaceful and relaxed.
This made her feel relieved, and this sleeping face could only be seen in the church.
It is still present.
Apparently the reason why Sharon is like this is the priest.
Continuing to raise his eyes, the priest still looked unfazed, but he was holding a piece of drawing paper in his hand.
It looks like Sharon is drawing on paper.
"Would you like to take a look?"
I don't know if her gaze is too explicit, but the priest suddenly looks up at the rearview mirror and makes eye contact with her.
Rose touched the point, subconsciously avoided it, and then shook his head.
"Father York, there seems to be a gas station in front of the map, I probably need to refuel, are you going to eat something?"
"Thanks, I'm not hungry yet." York looked down at the paper in his hand again.
There was something on the paper that didn't look like a child could draw, and there was a black flame on it, and in the midst of the ruins, a girl in a black dirty dress was holding something with her hands outstretched.
Rose glanced at the car mirror again, then nodded, and continued to concentrate on driving.
"Is this the embodiment of darkness that Alyssa separated?" York's eyes habitually narrowed, and his pupils reflected scenes that were different from reality.
His gaze seemed to penetrate the endless ruins of the drawing paper, through the steel shelves that were burned by the flames, and to make eye contact with the girls inside.
Unlike the girl whose face she couldn't see in the paper, the difference was that the girl in York's eyes began to look like Sharon.
There was no difference in height, face, the only difference was this open-handed Sharon, wearing a black and dirty dress, black lava-like marks under her eyes, and her hair was scattered.
She tilted her head and looked at him, suddenly disappearing, and finally reappeared and hugged him.
York raised his eyebrows in surprise, not knowing what this dark incarnation of Aretha meant.
But a white light burst out of him, and the dark incarnation of Sharon, who looked up at him again, smiled instead.
Finally reduced to ashes in the burst of light.
"Ugh."
York blinked, his pupils returned to normal, but he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the girl on the paper.
Truth be told, he's sympathetic to Alaissa, so he won't do anything this time.
Punish? He didn't think he was qualified, and even if he did, he didn't want to do anything to the poor child.
In the psychic just now, Yorkes knew his attitude, and it was probably noticed by Alesha.
"As long as you teach me how to create a spiritual world, even if I help you break the magic circle of that church." York muttered to himself.
The step of creating the world was important for his future plans.
Because this can be combined with his future.
After all, human beings can be said to be composed of atoms and some molecules, and when he can control and manipulate particles, he might as well try the man-making plan.
Thinking of this, Yorkes put the drawing paper on top of the book next to him, which he had already finished, and looked at the front seat.
Before I knew it, a light source appeared in front of me.
In his three-dimensional diagram, the light source in front of him is exactly what Ross said about the gas station.
And what surprised him was that the policewoman who could be called a good person in the movie, followed Rose into Silent Hill, helped find Sharon, and was burned to death by the cult hiding in the church, was also there.
"Isn't it a parallel world similar to the previous life?" York sighed in his heart.
"Father York, I'm at the gas station, buy you a bottle of water?" Rose said at this point that she still wanted to do something for the priest.
"Well, thank you, Ms. Ross." Sensing this, Yorks looked in the rearview mirror and looked at Ross and did not refuse.
Rose shrugged, smiled, looked at the gas station that appeared in front of him, and drove the car over.
Although there was no Silent Hill on the map, it seemed to have been erased, but it was still a little bit from the location that Father York had said, so she had to refuel.
In the dark night, the already remote gas station looks a little ghostly in the dim light, with a terrifying atmosphere.
However, Rose didn't have much fear in his heart, mainly because there was a priest, no matter how special the priest was, his burly figure could still make people feel safe.
In addition to this, there are also factors that can give her a sense of security.
A Harley-Day-Rayson motorcycle is parked on the side of the road at the gas station, and according to its logo, it is a standard police motorcycle that is commonly heard by the police.
As the car passed by, retracting his gaze from the police motorcycle, Rose glanced at the gas station.
She didn't see the police there, only an old pickup truck parked next to a gas tank, and a middle-aged man in a plain jacket and jeans, but very stocky, was standing at the filling to fill his pickup truck.
The man seemed a little surprised when he saw the car coming in, and he turned his head to look at it.
Rose instantly shifted his gaze and continued to drive over.
The car slowly entered, and the gaze moved again, revealing a small shop inside.
Rose finally saw a person in a police uniform appear, and what she didn't expect was that it turned out to be a policewoman.
Seeing that the policewoman was chatting with the clerk with something, she was surprised, but Rose still parked the car firmly in the last fuel tank, and the position in front of it happened to be a pickup truck.
Seeing through the front window that the man was staring at this side while refueling with a gas gun, his gaze was a little weird and strange, Rose pursed his lips and looked in the car rearview mirror.
The priest nodded at her.
The sense of security doubled, and Rose quietly relaxed.
"Father, you wait for me."
York laughed, "Okay." ”
