escape from the world

The evening wind was slightly cold, and the cat lightly jumped onto the wall, the bell around its neck swayed, its tail flicked, and a pair of vertical pupils stared straight at the two standing under the moon.

Nie Shiban hugged Fang Chen, who had closed his eyes peacefully, and his eyes fell on the glass door of the hotel.

One long and slender hand pushed open the door, the slightly long nails were dyed a dazzling bright red, the other hand was pinching half-burned cigarettes, sparks dotted the endless blackness behind her.

"Nie Shi, time is running out." The woman's voice sounded, her eyes glanced at the cat standing on the wall and paused again, "It's watching."

Nie Shi only looked at the person coming for half a second, then turned his eyes back to Fang Chen, gently touching the sleeping man's hair, like a child treating a beloved toy, with care and love in every gesture, and even a trace of satisfaction in his eyebrows and eyes .Fang Chen took the initiative to walk towards him, and walked towards him even though he was full of fear.

"Do you know how scary you are?" The woman propped half of her face with her bright red nails close to her cheeks, "No wonder it scares him." She deliberately said the last thing Nie Shi wanted to hear.

Nie Shi frowned slightly, and was finally willing to give alms to the woman opposite him with calm eyes.

"If you join them on your own initiative, you will be heavily targeted. If you don't want to be punished, don't go too far." The woman reminded, her eyes moved to the cat on the wall, and her voice was lowered, "You should do your best. I will watch over Fang Chen for you."

Nie Shi hugged Fang Chen without saying anything. The young man in his dream was not sleeping comfortably, and subconsciously grabbed Nie Shi's skirt and buried his head in it.Nie Shi waited for a while, and waited until Fang Chen fell asleep again before continuing to walk, passing the woman.

The woman narrowed her eyes slightly, thought for a while and said, "Don't be too specific about Qiao Ran...he also has good intentions." The second half of the sentence lacked confidence.

Nie Shi acted like he didn't hear it, and walked straight into the hotel. The "New Night" light board was reflected on half of his face, like blood dripping down his cheeks.

When Nie Shi entered the hotel, the surroundings were silent for a while. Suddenly, the cat on the wall turned his head and looked down. A boy's head popped out from the edge of the wall and grinned at the woman.

"It's useless to talk to him, Nie Shi doesn't care about it." Qiao Ran drooped her left hand, and leaned on her body to shake her arm a few times, "He only listens to Brother Fang Chen."

"What happened to your arm?"

Qiao Ran blinked and smiled again: "I just ran into him and it was broken."

"..." The woman held her forehead with a headache.

Qiao Ran looked around and walked over casually, "It took too long this time, the target has shrunk, and more and more evil thoughts are flooding in. It's very troublesome to deal with."

"You guys keep your guard up, it's time like this so don't let people find out."

Qiao Ran nodded, "What about Brother Fang Chen?"

The woman paused, shaking off the soot, "I'll figure it out."

"I will be killed." Qiao Ran's left hand did not know when it would return to its original shape, and he made a gesture of a gun and shot himself in the head, and then tilted his head, "I will definitely be killed, once again, Nie No one is allowed to hurt him."

"Of course I know." The woman looked at the cat on the wall, "But Fang Chen must remember."

Fang Chen had to think of those nightmares, those swamp-like past that made it difficult to breathe and struggle, as if he had experienced it again, scenes flashed through his mind, and he felt the pain again.

This is his punishment.

……

"Gao Cheng, Fang Chen, are you inside?"

Someone was knocking on the door, Fang Chen woke up and stared at his healed arm for a while, then got out of bed and opened the door.

Zhang Rui and Wang Huiwen stood side by side, Fang Chen was taller than both of them, looking down at people with a sleepy feeling.

Wang Huiwen was frightened, for a moment she thought it was Nie Shi standing in front of them.

Zhang Rui's tone was not very good, and he said directly: "We should go, where is Gao Cheng?"

Fang Chen replied simply: "Dead."

After two seconds of silence, Wang Huiwen took a step back, Zhang Rui wanted to ask how he died, how did he die?I also feel that it is useless to ask, they are all decreasing one by one, and now there are only three of them left, the most important thing right now is to escape.

"Then, let's go then?" Wang Huiwen stammered at a loss, "Look, it's dawn..."

Fang Chen's lips were slightly pale, and he didn't respond immediately. After a few seconds, he uttered an inexplicable sentence: "Why do you always want to escape?"

Wang Huiwen didn't understand, and said as it should, "This... definitely has to escape."

Zhang Rui tugged her from behind, as if he didn't want to talk to Fang Chenduo, he pulled Wang Huiwen outside.

After exiting the door of "New Night", Fang Shen looked back, the light board was no longer on and returned to the old, dusty appearance. Everything last night was like a dream, illusory and real, revealing a hazy feeling, it was a sudden scene in a fog. Reaching out a hand around his throat.

Standing in front of the car door, Fang Chen suddenly thought that Gao Cheng could not open the door with the car key, so he turned his head to look at the couple.Something drove him forward, and he instinctively resisted but still walked over.

"I don't have a car key." Fang Chen lowered his head and looked at his feet, unwilling to look at his lover, but couldn't help turning his eyes to his arms.

Zhang Rui muttered something, as if he was dissatisfied with Fang Chen, Fang Chen directly reached out and opened the rear door, and sat in consciously.Wang Huiwen looked at Zhang Rui and then at Fang Chen, seeing that Zhang Rui didn't say anything and she got into the co-pilot herself.

After getting into the car, the two people in front started to smoke. When Fang Chen didn't exist, they swallowed and vomited smoke recklessly, as if this would reduce their inner fear.

Fang Chen looked at the surrounding scenery through the car window, his nose was filled with the smell of smoke, his eyes were sore from the choking but he did not move.

According to Gao Cheng's previous estimate, they should have arrived in city b long ago, but now they are still moving forward.

There is no end to this road.

They were fleeing, but no matter how they fled, they were fleeing into the next dark.

Fang Chen was engrossed in his thoughts when a hand suddenly appeared on the glass window. The wrist was blue, with the gray-white color of a dead man. He was indeed frightened, his pupils dilated, but his face was expressionless and calm. Look at that hand.

It's Qiao Ran.

Qiao Ran is the only one who can take evil as funny.

Thinking of this, Fang Chen was not too scared anymore, he lowered his head and stopped looking out the window.

Someone is watching him.

Zhang Rui was looking at him through the rear car mirror pretending to be casual.

Fang Chen's scalp went numb, and for the first time he felt that the living were more terrifying than the dead.

Their eyes, their thoughts, he couldn't understand at all.

Qiao Ran's purpose and prank were simple and clear, and Fang Chen could understand it without deliberate guessing. Occasionally, he would even hold the truth in front of Fang Chen.

But humans are different.

What they say may not necessarily be what they think in their hearts, and their smiles may not necessarily come from their hearts.Living is like putting on several layers of masks. The masks are made of human skin mixed with blood, and the layers are still bottomless.

Fang Chen lowered his head and his neck was sore, and it took him a long time to lift it up. The hand on the car window had long since disappeared, and the sky had already turned blue.

They will soon be entering the next dark.

Fang Chen had a sudden thought - if they didn't hide in the hotel, what would Qiao Ran and the others do if those evil thoughts came after them?

"Don't you want to avoid it?" Fang Chen reminded.

Zhang Rui is also a little anxious, the navigation is still leading the way, but no matter how hard he drives, he can't drive to the destination, and his tone is a bit aggressive: "I know!"

Fang Chen said again: "Now it will be dark if it is dark."

Wang Huiwen was afraid, and tugged at the corner of Zhang Ruiyi: "Let's find a place to stop."

Zhang Rui glanced at Fang Chen from the rear car mirror, Fang Chen lowered his head and only saw the top of his head.

The car stopped at the entrance of a hotel nearby. Both Wang Huiwen and Zhang Rui were in a bad state of mind. After smoking for a while, they became sluggish again. They ignored Fang Chen who was walking behind them, and walked straight into the hotel.

Fang Chen followed them to the fourth floor and chose the room next to them.

Just as Fang Chen was about to enter the house, Wang Huiwen stopped him.

"Hey..." Wang Huiwen hesitated, glanced at Zhang Rui and asked, "Will you suddenly fall asleep at night?"

Fang Chen stopped, the door was ajar and he held on to the handle.

"Gao Cheng died in the toilet." He said suddenly, "He got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet and opened the door, and then died in the toilet."

Wang Huiwen's attention was immediately diverted, "But there is a toilet in the room..."

"Don't go out at night." Fang Chen's eyes fell on Zhang Rui who was standing behind Wang Huiwen, "It's fine if you're asleep, it's too dark."

This topic is over.

Both doors were closed, and Wang Huiwen could vaguely hear Wang Huiwen's words along the crack of the door: "...Do you think there is something wrong with Fang Chen?"

In the room, Zhang Rui was paralyzed on the sofa: "I was so scared, we were fine when we left, only one person died, and when we met him again, there were only two of them left, okay, the other one last night Dead too, maybe he saw it."

Wang Huiwen nodded uneasily, and slowly sat on the man's lap and snuggled up, but her eyes were anxious and thinking about something.

The sky was completely dark, Fang Chen took the initiative to walk out of the room.

This hotel was bigger and relatively clean than the two hotels they had been to before. Fang Chen stood at his door and waited for a while, then walked slowly to the couple's door. At first he did nothing but stood, and then He reached out and knocked on the door.

dong dong.

Sure enough, there was no movement at all, and they were all in a deep sleep.Is that asleep?Fang Chen put down his hands, he should have fainted, because only in this way is it convenient for Qiao Ran and the others to move.

It's not fair.

They obviously worked so hard to escape, and all they got back was endless despair.

The sound of high heels sounded in the empty corridor, from far to near, piercing Fang Chen's eardrums sharply.The woman's red skirt swayed accordingly, and the exposed white feet were soaked in the moonlight, and she stopped and raised her calves and was still buried in the shadows.

Fang Chen looked up from the bottom and saw the hands stained with bright red nail polish. Even though he had an answer in his heart, he couldn't help but open his eyes wide - he wanted to see clearly for himself.

It was unclear whether it was the moonlight moving back slowly or the woman taking a step forward, the halo passed over her head.

It was the dead Xie Ying who walked out of the darkness.
