Chapter 26 Back to Reality

"Tang Yaoyao..." Xu Xiaocheng was stunned by this scene, she looked at Tang Yaoyao in horror, "What's on your body?"

Tang Yaoyao lowered her head in doubt when she heard the words, and finally saw what happened to her. She saw that the skin of her whole body had turned dazzling red, as if blood would overflow from her body in the next moment.

"Ahhhhhhh!!!" With a shrill scream, Tang Yaoyao rubbed her body like she was crazy, but with her movements, the red color began to spread rapidly, and finally the whole person became flushed.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhly on the ground.

These things happened in an instant, and before everyone could react, everything was over. Tang Yaoyao fell to the floor with her eyes wide open, she had lost her breath, she was red all over, and even her white eyeballs were stained. Crazy red.

Xu Xiaocheng was so frightened by this scene that he cried, and Lin Qiushi felt bitterness in his mouth and could not speak.

Zhang Xinghuo let out a sigh of relief and said dumbly, "One more dead, can we really survive it?"

No one answered his question, and everyone fell into silence.

Tang Yaoyao's body was placed rigidly on the ground. Lin Qiushi didn't dare to look carefully, but also found that something was wrong with her body. Compared with the previous dead people, she did not lack any parts, but suddenly died suddenly in front of everyone.

Just as they were at an impasse, the woman in the house who had always liked to be in the kitchen appeared again. She stood by the door and smiled at everyone, and wiped her apron with her hand: "I made something delicious for you, do you want to try it?"

Of course no one answered.

"Oh, oh." The woman laughed, "Why are you unhappy, the birthday party is coming soon, and you will be happy by then." She said, giggling, and the laughter was exceptional. Infiltrate people. After saying this, the woman turned around and went back to the kitchen, continuing to wonder what she was doing.

"Wait." After a long silence, Ruan Nanzhu broke the silence. There was no panic and anxiety in his tone, but more of a calm, "There should be no more deaths."

"Why?" Xu Xiaocheng asked.

"Intuition." Ruan Nanzhu smiled, "My intuition has always been accurate."

Zhang Xinghuo heard the words and said, "I hope you are right, but women's intuition is indeed accurate, especially for beautiful women."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Have vision."

Lin Qiushi: "..." Why did you answer so calmly?

However, although Ruan Nanzhu was not a girl, there was nothing wrong with his intuition, and no one died in the next two days. They ate tasteless dry bread and waited for the upcoming birthday party like prisoners awaiting sentence.

The night before the birthday banquet, Ruan Nanzhu and Lin Qiushi went to the roof again. This time, when they reached the roof, they found something else in a tin hut on the roof.

"What is this?" When Lin Qiushi first saw those things, he hadn't reacted yet. There were several large bowls in front of him, some with white liquid and some with red minced meat. , but when he saw something next to him, he suddenly realized. Because right next to these things, there is a glass jar, and a bunch of spherical balls are placed in the jar. After looking carefully, you will find that those spherical balls are all human eyeballs.

Lin Qiushi looked at the eyes and immediately thought of the young man who was killed on the fourth floor, and according to this association, it is not difficult to guess that these things all belong to the people in their team.

Zeng Ruguo's brain, Zhong Chengjian's minced meat, and Tang Yaoyao's blood-red bones...

"Could these be..." Lin Qiushi glanced at Ruan Nanzhu.

"It should be." Ruan Nanzhu said.

Lin Qiushi was speechless.

"Let's go." Ruan Nanzhu said, "I will know the answer tomorrow."

"Well." Lin Qiushi nodded.

Another night passed, and the ringing of the alarm clock woke them up from their dreams. When Lin Qiushi woke up, he thought that the sky was not bright, because the surroundings were completely dark, and the morning sun, which was not bright before, was still shrouded in thick clouds at this time.

Ruan Nanzhu was already awake, leaning on the bed as if thinking about something.

"It's already morning?" Lin Qiushi got up from the bed, making sure he didn't misread the time.

"Well." Ruan Nanzhu said, "the sky has never been bright."

Although it is gloomy on weekdays, there will be some sunshine anyway, but today there is really no sunshine at all, everything is immersed in darkness, only the dim light barely provides a faint light.

Lin Qiushi got dressed and went out with Ruan Nanzhu.

Today's noon is the birthday party of the triplets. According to Ruan Nanzhu's speculation, something will definitely happen. After they went out, they saw Xu Xiaocheng and Zhang Xinghuo also getting up. The two of them stood at the door of the corridor and never dared to enter the house.

"It's all here." There were only four people left in the team at this time, Ruan Nanzhu said, "Go in when you arrive." He was the first to take a step.

Only a small wall lamp was turned on in the room, but Lin Qiushi still clearly saw that all the decorations in the room had changed, as if someone had carefully decorated it. There are streamers hanging on the walls, beautiful scraps of paper scattered on the floor, and a couple of giant stuffed animals on the sofa, making it a celebratory sight.

As soon as they entered the house, a song came from the bedroom. The English version of wishing you a happy birthday, humming with a stiff tune, sounded extraordinarily strange.

The rest of the triplets sat silently in the corner of the sofa. She was wearing a red dress, holding a doll in her hand, and looked blankly at the four people who entered the room.

"Who am I?" the little girl asked suddenly.

"You are Xiaotu." Ruan Nanzhu replied calmly.

"Have you seen my sisters," the little girl said. "They went to the birthday party and haven't come back yet."

"I see." Ruan Nanzhu said, "They are dead."

The little girl blinked, her black and white eyes stared at the four of them quietly, Lin Qiushi thought she would continue to ask questions, but she didn't expect that she nodded and said quietly, "I see. "

When she asked a question, there were footsteps from the kitchen and the sound of a woman humming a song. She seemed to be in a very good mood. While humming a song, she pushed a huge object towards the living room. .

When she walked in, Lin Qiushi could see clearly what she was pushing.

It was a huge cake. It looked very beautiful at first glance. The cake was made of three layers, decorated with snow-white cream, surrounded by red fruits of unknown material, and three candles were lit on the top. Glowing dimly.

"Happy birthday," the woman said.

The little girl stood up and looked at her silently.

The woman said, "Hurry up and sing. After singing, it's time to eat the cake." She laughed, "Remember to give it to the neighbor, and send two pieces to the past."

The little girl hugged the doll and began to sing Happy Birthday. The immature child's voice echoed in the dimly lit room, inexplicably adding a bit of weirdness.

After a birthday song ended, the little girl stood on tiptoe and blew out the candles.

The woman giggled, handed a knife to the girl, and said, "Dear daughter, cut the cake."

The little girl took the knife and cut it hard towards the cake. A knife fell, and behind the snow-white cream was a red cake core.

Xu Xiaocheng didn't seem to be full for a long time. Seeing the cake swallowed heavily, she muttered, "It's still red velvet..."

Lin Qiushi couldn't have any appetite for this cake because of what he saw last night, although this cake did look delicious.

"Give them a share." The woman urged, "Let them taste Mom's craftsmanship."

At the urging of the woman, the little girl divided the cake into several large pieces, put it on a plate, and handed it to everyone.

Zhang Xinghuo and Xu Xiaocheng both took it, but they didn't dare to eat it.

However, when he handed it to Ruan Nanzhu, he didn't reach out and looked at the little girl with indifference.

"Eat cake." The little girl said.

"I don't want to eat." Ruan Nanzhu said, "I'm not interested."

The little girl repeated: "Eat the cake."

Ruan Nanzhu said, "I don't want to eat." His attitude was very firm, and he didn't mean to compromise at all. Even because of his refusal, the expression of the woman in front of him began to become crazy.

"Why don't you eat it?" the woman asked.

"I don't want to eat it." Ruan Nanzhu said, "There is no reason."

The woman said: "You..."

She seemed to be about to say something when Ruan Nanzhu stood up directly. No one could guess his next move. He raised his hand and overturned the table on which the cake was placed.

The snow-white cakes all fell to the ground and were smashed to pieces. Standing beside them, Xu Xiaocheng and Zhang Xinghuo, who were drooling, smelled a strong stench before they had time to feel distressed. When they lowered their heads, they found that the cake in their hands had completely changed.

The bright red cake core has turned into minced meat, the snow-white cream is the brain, the lovely round decorations on it are human eyeballs, and the candle that has just been extinguished is three bright red bones.

"Fuck!" Xu Xiaocheng threw the things in his hands in fright.

When the woman saw this scene, her expression instantly distorted, but before she could do anything, Ruan Nanzhu took a step forward and stabbed her body with a knife.

Even Lin Qiushi was stunned when he saw Ruan Nanzhu's actions. He stared at Ruan Nanzhu with a knife he took out from nowhere, and slashed at the woman. The action is ruthless and straightforward, and there is no mercy.

"Giggle giggle." The little girl standing beside saw this scene and laughed unexpectedly, she threw the doll in her hand forcefully, stood on the spot clapping her hands and laughing, "Mom is dead, mother is dead!! "

Ruan Nanzhu dismembered the woman into several pieces in an instant, and he was also covered with blood.

Xu Xiaocheng and Zhang Xinghuo thought he was crazy, so they turned around and ran to the door, only Lin Qiushi looked worried at him and said, "Are you alright—"

Ruan Nanzhu turned his head, his face was covered in blood, he spat indifferently, and smiled: "Aren't you afraid of me?"

Lin Qiushi reached out and wiped the blood on his face: "Not afraid."

Ruan Nanzhu: "You still dare to touch blood?"

Lin Qiushi: "Didn't you get it too?" Although he knew fairy tales, he also believed that Ruan Nanzhu would never do such a thing for no reason, so apart from the initial surprise, his emotions calmed down quickly. , and even began to think about why Ruan Nanzhu did this.

"Well." Ruan Nanzhu said, "I just saw that the key is not in the cake."

Lin Qiushi frowned: "Not here?"

He only discussed this with Ruan Nanzhu last night, and both of them agreed that the key is most likely to appear in the cake. Ruan Nanzhu's action just now was obviously to confirm their guess, but after being shattered, the key that was supposed to be released was nowhere to be found.

Ruan Nanzhu slowly stretched out his hand and said, "It's here." He saw a beautiful bronze key lying on the palm of his hand. The key was covered with blood. According to Ruan Nanzhu's actions just now, Lin Qiushi Guessing the source of the key instantly, he opened his eyes slightly: "This key is in her body...?"

"Yes." Ruan Nanzhu stood up, "I'll explain to you in detail later, let's go."

Lin Qiushi nodded, and the two ran out of the house together.

Just as they were leaving, the messy corpse of the woman chopped by Ruan Nanzhu on the ground moved by itself, and was assembled into a human appearance at a very fast speed, but in a moment, a bloody expression was all over her body. The crazy woman appeared in the middle of the room again, she slowly straightened her head with her hands, and said in a hoarse voice, "Where are you going, why don't you eat my cake, you come back—" She mentioned The sharp knife used to cut the cake rushed out of the house with an awkward posture.

Ruan Nanzhu seemed to have guessed all this, and took Lin Qiushi to run upstairs.

Although Xu Xiaocheng and Zhang Xinghuo didn't know what happened, they both saw the key in Ruan Nanzhu's hand. The fear on the faces of the two turned into surprise, and they rushed to the top of the building following Lin Qiushi.

"I'll open the door, you delay" Ruan Nanzhu grabbed the iron lock and started to open it.

Lin Qiushi snorted, standing behind him, heard footsteps coming from below, and the next moment, the woman who had just been dismembered appeared behind them. With a sharp knife in her hand, the woman began to climb the stairs with a twisted face. It was probably because her body had just been assembled and her walking was not too smooth, so her posture for climbing the stairs was very distorted and her speed was not too fast.

At this time, ordinary people have long panicked, but Ruan Nanzhu's hand did not shake when unlocking, and he said, "Give me another ten seconds!"

Lin Qiushi knew that Ruan Nanzhu must not be disturbed at this time. He took two steps forward, took out his mobile phone, and smashed it at the woman's head. After the woman was hit, her head tilted slightly. Lin Qiushi seized this opportunity and kicked the woman by raising her foot. This kick exhausted all his strength, but it seemed like he was kicked on a wall. Almost broke his foot.

Fortunately, the woman took a small step back because of this, and she was about to move forward when a sound of iron locks falling to the ground also sounded behind Lin Qiushi.

"Go!" Ruan Nanzhu opened the door.

Zhang Xinghuo and Xu Xiaocheng ran behind Ruan Nanzhu, and Lin Qiushi also ran, but the woman seemed to know that they were leaving, and she used all her strength to pounce on Lin Qiushi.

Although Lin Qiushi dodged to the side, her arm was still cut by the knife in her hand.

At this time, the black bags piled up on the roof began to wriggle, and some of the bags even gradually formed the shape of people, and rushed out of the black cloth bags abruptly.

Ruan Nanzhu walked at the front. He opened the black iron door directly in front of the door. After pulling it open, light shot out.

"You go first." Ruan Nanzhu said to Zhang Xinghuo and Xu Xiaocheng.

The two of them didn't dare to stay here any longer after hearing the words, and they both jumped into the iron gate without hesitation.

Ruan Nanzhu turned around and said to Lin Qiushi, "Come here"

Lin Qiushi rushed towards him, but when he was still some distance away from Ruan Nanzhu, Ruan Nanzhu grabbed his hand, hugged him hard, and then fell straight towards the door behind him.

I don't know if it was Lin Qiushi's illusion. The moment he felt that he fell into the door, something was scratched on the back of his head.

The two fell into a warm halo, the darkness was expelled, and the blood on Ruan Nanzhu began to gradually fade.

The door is a long tunnel. This picture is exactly the same as before. It seems that they have escaped from the world inside the door.

Ruan Nanzhu held Lin Qiushi's hand and walked forward. The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not speak until the familiar dizziness reappeared.

Lin Qiushi saw the gate of his house and the surrounding walls.

Ruan Nanzhu stood beside him and watched him.

"We came out?" Lin Qiushi asked in a difficult tone.

"Yeah." Ruan Nanzhu put something into his pocket, "Let's go, go into the house."

Lin Qiushi wanted to move his body, but when he took a step, he felt the world spinning for a while. Seeing that he was about to fall to the ground, he finally fell into a warm embrace.

"Are you injured inside the door?" Ruan Nanzhu asked.

"Yeah." Lin Qiushi felt that he had no strength, and he answered in a low voice.

Ruan Nanzhu didn't speak, but directly hugged Lin Qiushi. A big man of about 1.8 meters, weighing more than 100 pounds, Ruan Nanzhu held it without any effort. The two entered the room, and Ruan Nanzhu put Lin Qiushi on the bed: "You go to sleep first."

Lin Qiushi was at a loss for words. He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep that was almost in a coma.

Lin Qiushi didn't know how long he had slept. Anyway, when he woke up, his eyes were white, and the smell of disinfectant was lingering in his nose. He had many strange dreams. Some people howled, sometimes feeling that someone was chasing them. Because of these strange dreams, it took a while for Lin Qiushi to realize that he had come out of the world inside the door. At this time, he was lying in the hospital with a drip on his arm.

Next to him sat a young man, Cheng Qianli, whom he had met in the villa before. When he saw Lin Qiushi awake, he leaned over to greet him: "Lin Qiushi, you are awake, how are you feeling?"

Lin Qiushi felt groggy: "How long have I slept..."

Cheng Qianli said, "It didn't take long, why, what's the urgency?"

Lin Qiushi: "My cat..."

Cheng Qianli: "..." He obeyed. This man is really a competent shit shovel officer. He has cats and cats in his mind every day, and he doesn't forget this when he wakes up.

"It's okay, you only slept for a long time." Cheng Qianli said, "The cat is fine."

Lin Qiushi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What's wrong with me?"

"I'm sick." Cheng Qianli said, "high fever, it's not a big problem, are you injured inside the door?"

"Well." Lin Qiushi said, "The arm was scratched."

Cheng Qianli said: "That's fine, it's just a fever. Remember, try not to get hurt inside the door as much as possible. Small wounds inside may be serious for people outside the door."

Lin Qiushi nodded: "Where's Nanzhu?"

Cheng Qianli said: "Brother Ruan has something to do, so I'll be busy first, let me guard you first, how about it, how does it feel when you enter the door for the second time?"

Lin Qiushi said honestly: "It's okay." He paused for a moment, "I almost didn't come out." Now thinking of the woman with the knife, her scalp is numb.

"Oh, there's something that's not too bad, you can come out." Cheng Qianli said, "Besides, Brother Ruan is following you, and usually nothing major will happen." He said, "Would you like to eat apples, I'll give it to you. Cut one."

Lin Qiushi nodded, receiving Cheng Qianli's kindness.

I have to say that after coming out of the door, really feel a new life. Whether it is sunlight, temperature, or noisy human voices, it makes people feel full of happiness.

Lin Qiushi was nibbling on the sweet apple, feeling that he was about to fly with happiness, and he didn't hate the hospital that he usually didn't like.

Cheng Qianli sat next to him and played games, chatting with Lin Qiushi from time to time.

Lin Qiushi chatted and began to fall asleep again. When he was about to close his eyes, he heard footsteps coming from his side. He opened his eyes reflexively, but saw Ruan Nanzhu in front of him.

Ruan Nanzhu turned against the light and couldn't see the expression on his face, but his voice was gentle. He called him, "Awake?"

Lin Qiushi called his name: "Nanzhu..."

Ruan Nanzhu gently touched his forehead and said, "Sleep in peace, we're out."

When Lin Qiushi heard his voice and words, his heart miraculously calmed down, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep again. There were no strange dreams this time, only tranquility by his side.

The author has something to say:

Lin Qiushi: I like cats very much.

Ruan Nanzhu thought for a moment: Meow~

Lin Qiushi: ...you have no hair.

Ruan Nanzhu took off his pants aggrieved: I have.

It's cold today, and the weak and helpless author wants to drink a sip of nutrient solution, so he sips it.
