There are no ghosts in this world...
So, what did you just see?
Lu Xin squatted next to the homeless man's body for a while, wondering if he would come back to life again, so that he could chat with him for a while, ask him why he was crying so sadly, and by the way, ask him whether he was dead or alive now.
But seeing that the cigarette he put in for himself was slowly burning with only a few sparks left, and there was still no movement.
Lu Xin sighed helplessly, thinking that he might not survive.
Feeling quite disappointed, Lu Xin gave up the idea of pushing him twice to see if he would survive.
After all, this seemed to be a poor man. He had already died under the bridge, and he couldn't be too disrespectful to him.
Dragging his suitcase, he slowly walked under the bridge.
I originally planned to hide here for a night, but there was already a dead homeless man here, so of course I had to find another place.
No normal person, after seeing a corpse under the bridge, can stay here for the night safely, right?
Step by step out of the bridge, I felt that the surroundings were quieter.
It wasn't the kind of silence just now when the crowd dispersed, but the silence as if the whole city was empty.
Obviously the buildings in this city are very new and the street lights in the distance are very bright, but Lu Xin feels like the city is empty and there is no sound. There was only the sound of myself slowly walking out from under the bridge, dragging my spinning suitcase.
His vision was gradually adjusting to the dim light of the street lights outside from the darkness under the bridge.
But when he was about to walk out of the bridge tunnel, he was suddenly startled and subconsciously raised his head.
In front of him, from time to time, a pair of legs swayed slightly, almost hitting his head.
Just now, I was walking out with my head down, and I didn't realize when these legs appeared.
Frowning, he looked at the pair of legs hanging limply, the faintly blue skin, and the pair of white leather shoes on the feet. Lu Xin tilted his body and walked out from the side of the legs. When he looked up, he saw a person hanging on the bridge.
She was a woman in her thirties. She tied the slender leather strap of her bag to the bridge pillar and then pulled herself onto it.
The belt was very tight, and the woman looked very scary.
His face was livid, with a strange purple color, his mouth was twisted into a painful shape, and his tongue was stuck out of his mouth.
Quietly and numbly, he hung on the bridge.
"When did this come?"
Lu Xin looked up at her and frowned slightly.
When I entered just now, there was no one hanging here.
He also believed that he was not so bad that he could not even hear someone hanging here under the bridge.
Besides, judging from the look of this woman, she probably wasn't hanged here just now.
When he looked at this woman with some confusion, the eyes of the hanging woman suddenly opened under her messy hair.
She quietly glanced at Lu Xin, and then the figure slowly disappeared.
"It's even weirder..."
Lu Xin shook his head slightly and looked at the railings on the bridge as if no one was there at all.
He didn't know how to explain this scene, but after thinking for a moment, he carried the box and walked up from the bottom of the bridge. He turned around and looked at the empty streets in the city, the closed shop doors and windows on both sides, and the quiet light of street lights on the roadside.
I vaguely feel that something is different in this city.
But if he were asked to say it accurately, he couldn't tell.
The only clear thing is that in this prosperous city that has fallen asleep, walking alone on the street feels very lonely.
Standing on the street was not a problem, so he dragged his suitcase and walked forward slowly.
The night wind swirled and blew past him.
The sound of the wheels under the suitcase rolling on the cement road was very monotonous.
Lu Xin didn't know where to go, so he could only drag his suitcase and walk slowly.
While looking at this quiet city and silent lights, I was also looking at this huge city and bright lights.
Maybe there were people in the buildings on both sides, or even in the parked vehicles on the side of the road.
However, because of sleep, I have been distinguished from all these people.
He walked slowly, and he didn't know how long he walked, and came to a crossroads and stopped.
Not because I reached my destination, but because I saw something strange not far ahead.
They were two black shadows, like broken wood, with a bright red patch in the middle.
Lu Xin Looking closely, he realized that it was a person lying on the ground. His body was divided into two parts, with a part in the middle deeply dented. Dark red blood and crushed internal organs flowed all over the ground, and a large part of it was stuck to the ground.
This appears to be a man who has been in a car accident.
From this tragic scene, Lu Xin can guess how tragic the car accident was.
When he stopped and looked at this miserable man, the man's upper half seemed to notice someone looking at him.
The head that was lying on the ground with its back to Lu Xin suddenly turned around slowly and mechanically.
The blood-squeezed eyes and nostrils were all bright red, and he stared blankly at Lu Xin.
"Pa bang bang..."
He suddenly slid his arms hard against the ground and crawled towards Lu Xin dragging half of his body.
Perhaps because half of his body was missing, he climbed surprisingly quickly.
Lu Xin just stood here quietly, watching him crawl towards him quickly, dragging out a long bright red line.
But just when he was about to crawl to his feet, his body became lighter and lighter until he completely disappeared.
Looking up, he saw that the back half of his body was gone, and the sticky red substance on the ground was also gone.
It seems that all this is just his imagination.
"But if this is an illusion, isn't there too much hallucination here?"
Lu Xin thought slowly, dragging the suitcase and continued walking forward.
Gradually, he felt that there were more and more weird things in this city.
There was a car parked on the side of the road. There was a livid man in the car, quietly holding a pot of charcoal fire inside the closed window.
There was a girl whose head was smashed into pieces like peanuts. She was holding a shoe and crying quietly downstairs.
There was also a man with a knife stuck in his stomach, holding his spilled intestines in his hands, looking past him helplessly.
How is the city doing?
Lu Xin walked past these shadows, whether they were real or illusory, thinking quietly.
He didn't think it was an illusion deliberately created by anyone.
Because the stories and emotions of these people do not seem to be fabricated out of thin air...
So, this should be someone who once existed in this city, right?
They should have quietly disappeared into the city long ago, but now they have returned to that miserable scene.
"Huh..."
Lu Xin took a look at a watch worth two hundred thousand.
It's twelve fifty-eight now.
It was still half an hour away from the two hours that Huozhong said when it issued the alarm, that is, one and a half in the morning.
In other words, the weird scenes now are not deliberately created by Tinder.
So, why do these people appear?
Lu Xin was thinking about this problem and came to a small river. There was a row of benches in front of it. Sitting on the bench was an old man with a hooded face and a dirty face. He was holding a round bottle in his hand and was drinking sip after sip. Lu Xin sat down beside her slowly.
He still didn't know where to hide for a while, but he was a little tired from walking.
Sitting close to the edge of the bench, I saw the old man's livid face and smelled the extremely pungent smell of the liquid.
Lu Xin sighed lightly and took out the cigarette.
The old man on one side fell silent, slowly twisted his stiff neck, and looked at him steadily with red-spotted eyes.
Lu Xin lit a cigarette, scratched his hair, and turned to look at the old man.
He took a look at the bottle first and said in surprise, "Paraquat?"
The old man said nothing, still just looking at him silently, his ashen face showing a coldness that did not look like a living person.
Lu Xin sighed sympathetically and chatted, "Are your children unfilial?"
The old man was still silent, but the coldness in his eyes seemed to be stronger.
The cold air on his body seemed to be released and spread to Lu Xin.
Lu Xin looked at her more sympathetically and said softly, "I heard that drinking this is very painful..."
"..."
The old man was silent. After a while, his figure slowly faded and disappeared on the bench.
Lu Xin finally stretched his body, stretched out his two arms, gently placed them on the back of the bench, and let out a long breath.
This bench finally belongs to me alone.
Tinder is so insidious.
He used a method to make the people in the city take the initiative to go to sleep, but he, an outsider, suddenly didn't know what to do.
Anyway, if I let myself go to sleep now, I wouldn't dare to sleep.
Simply wait here for him to come...
Thinking about this, Lu Xin was vaguely looking forward to the arrival of 1:30 in the morning.
Looking at the time on the watch over and over again, Lu Xin patiently sat on the bench and waited for the time to arrive.
Gradually, he felt that the surroundings were getting colder and colder, as if the temperature had been sucked away by some mysterious force.
The air is becoming more and more humid, and there seems to be some unknown substances. It is sticky and has a sweet taste.
This is... this seems to be blood?
Lu Xin was slightly alert. He looked up and saw a looming mist rising in the black river in front of him.
"Click click click..."
The second hand moves bit by bit, and the distance to one-thirty is getting closer and closer.
Until Lu Xin stared at the second hand and walked five times, and finally the minute hand trembled slightly and pointed at the "12" position.
"Woo..."
Suddenly an alarm sounded, but it was much lower than the previous alarm.
At the same time, Lu Xin raised his head suddenly, and suddenly heard the neat and heavy sound of boots hitting the ground.
Swishing and heavy, it filled the city.
Swish, swish, swish! Swish, swish, swish!
It was getting louder and heavier, mixed in the oppressive air, and quickly approaching from the edge of the city.
I got the vaccine yesterday and had a good night's sleep. I'll have two updates today, and then, I'm going to break out!!
