Humanoid self-propelled wishing machine

At 11:30 in the middle of the night, Tokyo General Hospital, Ward 604.

There was silence in the ward with the lights turned off, the windows were not closed properly, leaving a narrow gap, the night wind squeezed in, and the light blue tulle curtains were blown, and the light blue tulle curtains were blown together like breathing. One volt, floating slightly.

Assistant Supervisor Keita Hirasaki did not go home, but dutifully guarded Tsushima Reo's hospital bed, just sat on the hard chair in the ward and propped his chin with his hands, his eyes closed tiredly, and a slight roar came from his nasal cavity Sound, Xiao Xiao dozed off.

He didn't dare to sleep too deeply, and from time to time, he forcefully raised his heavy eyelids, and glanced slightly at the child who had finished the infusion but was still sleeping on the hospital bed, not only to confirm the situation of Tsushima Reo, but also with a slight concerns.

In any case, he made a decision without authorization, and brought Reo Tsushima, who was imprisoned in the dormitory and not allowed to go out, to the general hospital where the crowds gathered. If during this period, Reo Tsushima If the super-level curse spirit in his body caused any disputes, then ten thousand deaths would not be enough to apologise.

However, Tsushima Reo, who is just an ordinary child but is regarded as a dangerous item because of being boarded by a special magic spirit unfortunately, is very pitiful.

Just the short contact process of delivering three meals a day also made Hirasaki Keita develop a soft affection for Tsushima Reo.

That child is polite and sensible, never hated anyone, and didn't want to hurt anyone, even though he was deprived of his freedom and imprisoned in a small house, he was still able to show his bright and brilliant smile like the sun on a sunny day. Come smile.

Humans are photogenic animals.

In any case, Keita Hirasaki could not turn a blind eye to the pain that the child with that smile was suffering.

With such messy and uneasy thoughts in mind, Keita Hirasaki closed his eyes, and accidentally fell into a blank dreamland.

When he woke up suddenly because of the sudden weightlessness, the snow-white hospital bed was empty, and the child had disappeared. Only a lifted quilt was left, and the rest was blown away by the cool night wind. temperature.

Keita Hirasaki's brain, which was somewhat chaotic due to fatigue, suddenly woke up.

He stood up in a panic, the iron legs of the folding chair scratched the ground and made a harsh rattling sound, echoing loudly in the empty ward.

Hirasaki Keita's throat was a little tight, and even the voice he made was hoarse, "Rei Yang? Rei Yang?"

Because it was late at night, he didn't even dare to call loudly, so he could only call in a low voice while anxiously looking through the small single ward.

Curtains, wardrobes, bed bottoms, bathrooms, and even the bedside table for storing sundries were not spared. After confirming that Reo Tsushima was indeed not in the ward, he immediately unscrewed the doorknob of the ward and checked left and right.

On the long corridor of the hospital, only the dim emergency lights were still on at night, and there was no sound.

Unable to determine where Reo Tsushima went, Keita Hirasaki hesitated for a moment, and chose to go to the duty desk where he could check the surveillance video first, and ask the nurse on duty.

After coming out of Ward 604, he ran towards the right hand side in a hurry, and then turned at the second corner, and the duty desk with bright lights streaming out in the dimness appeared in front of Hirasaki Keita.

Also on the duty desk with only a small light on, the night watch nurse has fallen asleep sleepily, the computer screen in front of her is still silently displaying the real-time monitoring of the various corridors and halls of the hospital. The scribbled registration form, and a leaking signature pen was pressed against the sleeve of her pink and white uniform, and a black ink block was stained.

Keita Hirasaki had no choice but to go forward and wake her up softly.

"Miss nurse? Miss nurse!"

"Huh?" The nurse didn't seem to be sleeping soundly, she opened her sleepy eyes sleepily, rubbed her eyes, and asked after waking up, "Is there anything I need help with..."

"Yes!" Keita Hirasaki was anxious, and answered first, and asked, "Can you help me check the surveillance in the corridor in front of Ward 604? The child living there is missing."

"Okay, please don't worry." The nurse replied calmly. She skillfully manipulated the computer to find out the monitoring location Keita Hirasaki wanted to see, and asked, "When did the child disappear?"

"It should have been more than ten minutes ago." Keita Hirasaki was a little uncertain, he felt that he had slept for almost this long.

"it is good."

The nurse reversed the monitoring time. The door of Ward 604 was always closed. Except for the occasional change and flicker of the emergency light, the computer screen emitting bright blue light seemed to be playing the same video. Pictures are average.

But soon, the time was shorter than Keita Hirasaki imagined, just 5 minutes ago, the figure of Reo Tsushima appeared on the surveillance screen.

The nurse pressed pause and asked him, "Is this the child?"

In the dim corridor, the pale emergency light flickered slightly with the frequency of the current. The little child stood in front of the door, a blue and white striped hospital gown loosely wrapped around his body, showing more and more that he was more than a child. Children of the same age all have short bodies.

His head hangs low, half-length black hair slipped from his narrow shoulders, and hangs unsteadily in front of his chest. The surveillance recorded from top to bottom can only see the twirling of the hair on the top of his head. Clear the look on his face.

Reo Tsushima didn't wear shoes, and stepped on the cold ground with bare feet.

Keita Hirasaki nodded, and said to the nurse, "Yes, that's right, can you help me find out where he went after that?"

"no problem."

The nurse nodded, and there was a crisp click of the mouse, and the images on the computer screen continued to flow.

Reo Tsushima turned his head, raised his foot and walked to his right hand.

His walking posture is very strange, every movement is quite slow but exhausted, as if he can't control his body, he has to deploy the parts of the body bit by bit, and only after putting them together coherently can he make a After a complete movement, the body wobbled a little bit here and there, his hands were hanging weakly by his sides, and he swayed slightly with the tilted and unstable posture, which made people look a little worried, afraid that he would fall down on the ground in the next second. land.

In a short distance, Tsushima Reo walked for nearly a minute before disappearing from the surveillance screen.

The nurse called out the surveillance video of the next section of the road.

Keita Hirasaki watched very carefully, and gradually realized something was wrong.

Although he walks slowly, Reo Tsushima's goal is obviously quite clear. Even though his weak body makes him unsteady even when he walks, in the intermittent surveillance videos tuned up by the nurse, Reo Tsushima once again Did not stop to rest.

Moreover, the road he walked gradually gave Keita Hirasaki a sense of familiarity. This straight forward direction was obviously the corridor that Keita Hirasaki ran anxiously just now to go to the duty desk to check the surveillance video.

Hirasaki Keita couldn't help but have such a guess in his heart.

Reyo Tsushima, is she staying very close to him now?

The young auxiliary supervisor involuntarily raised his head and looked around. Except for the cold and empty hall and the unoccupied seats, there was no figure of Reo Tsushima.

The nurse clicked on the next video again.

In the somewhat blurred surveillance screen, Reo Tsushima stopped in the shadow at the second corner, as long as he took a step forward, he could see the duty desk where Keita Hirasaki and the nurse were currently on.

For some reason, Keita Hirasaki felt a strange sense of confusion, as if Reo Tsushima was really watching him from somewhere 5 minutes ago.

In the video, Reo Tsushima seemed to sense that someone was spying on him, slowly raised his head, turned his head, and looked at the fixed surveillance camera.

Pale skin without blood, black facial features with simple arcs like a stick figure, exuding a cold and gloomy aura, the curse spirit occupying Tsushima Reo's body tilted his head, and showed a weird look at the surveillance camera. smile.

That's not Reo Tsushima.

Hirasaki Keita felt cold all over his body as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

It's a special-grade resentment curse spirit [Erina].

The nurse couldn't maintain her composure any longer. There was a look of panic in her eyes, her teeth seemed to be trembling, and they collided slightly, "Then, what is that?"

Even the way she looked at Keita Hirasaki changed, as if she was looking at a man-eating beast with fear and panic.

Hirasaki Keita was a little anxious, his mood was unstable, and he didn't have time to appease the nurse who didn't know the existence of the curse spirit, so he showed a vicious look and shouted sharply, "Hurry up and put down the monitoring!"

The nurse was so frightened that her hands trembled, and some tears leaked from the corners of her eyes because of the fear in her heart. She didn't dare to resist Keita Hirasaki who suddenly changed her face, and clicked on the next surveillance video.

This time, the surveillance camera was facing the duty desk, and the teary-eyed nurse saw herself lying on the table and falling asleep, while the weird and terrifying monster came out from the shadow at the corner, shaking He walked towards her unsteadily, stood beside the duty desk, looked at himself who was breathing steadily with his eyes closed, and tilted his head in some doubts.

The monster stood on tiptoe, poked her arm with cold fingers, and accidentally rubbed the pen a little bit, staining her clothes.

The monster with a terrifying face was stunned, and she withdrew her hand as if she had done something wrong, a little at a loss. After a while, she didn't touch the nurse again, and carefully walked around to the other side from the pile of registers that was being pressed by the nurse. A few sheets were pulled out from the table, and then disappeared into the monitoring screen as if crouching down.

In the next second, Keita Hirasaki, whose clothes were disheveled, appeared on the screen. With an anxious expression on his face, he stepped over to the duty desk and woke up the nurse.

The computer screen in front of them was still replaying their behavior 5 minutes ago, and the surroundings were filled with the silence of the night, and the corridors on both sides stretched to unknown distances like ghosts devouring everything.

The nurse, who was paralyzed on one side of her body, couldn't help shivering. She didn't dare to look under the desk at the duty desk, and sat there stiffly, feeling a chilly death breath coming from her legs in a trance.

Hirasaki Keita subconsciously looked under the wide desk at the duty desk. There was a thick black shadow covering it, and he couldn't see clearly. He had to get a little closer, a little closer.

There was some cold sweat in his palms, his heart was pounding on his chest, Hirasaki Keitaji slowly and cautiously walked around to the other side of the nurse, carefully bent down to spy on the unknown black vortex.

"Giggle."

In this space where even the sound of breathing slowed down involuntarily, the clear and immature laughter of a child suddenly resounded.

Keita Hirasaki stepped back suddenly, breaking out in a cold sweat. The nurse was already on the verge of emotional collapse, and fell to the ground in fright at this moment, supported her back with her palms, and screamed desperately.

In the empty late-night corridor of the hospital, under the duty desk illuminated by a little pale light, in the midst of the nurse's broken and shrill cry, Erina slowly crawled out from the dark shadows, holding the A hospitalization registration form, with the identity information of the registrant and the person handling the procedures in Ward 604 written in the top box.

Erina smiled at them, and accurately called Hirasaki Keita's name in a somewhat vague voice, "Hirasaki Keita."

"can you give me a hug?"

The slightly rising ending sound has a little sweetness like a baby.

Erina is hungry.
