Are you human?

"Fu Lianyu." Fu Yu took Fu Lianyu's hand and made him bend down, "That person always looks at me."

"Don't worry about him, don't look at him, just sit still."

"Oh." Fu Yuduan sat upright for a while, then went to pull Fu Lianyu's clothes, "Where are we going?"

"You'll know when you arrive, don't talk, be good."

"Oh."

The child lowered his head to respond, the wind on the river made goose bumps on his legs, and the soles of his feet felt hot after walking for too long, but Fu Lianyu said that "the whole city is under martial law", and they can't Stay in the city for a long time.

So they ran here, a black bottomless river, twisting around the gaps between houses and houses, and in some places even had to bend over to pass.

A man with two missing teeth at the bow took the money and then punted the boat without saying a word, but Fu Yu always felt that his eyes were sweeping over him, which made him a little uncomfortable.

He didn’t want to look at the water, the waves from the boat had not spread out and were photographed on the shore. The narrow feeling made him a little suffocated. Fu Yu raised his head and saw that the gray sky was also squeezed into a line, and the holographic projections from the left and right But they can deftly avoid each other, and when the passing aircraft pass by, they are smashed into small pixel blocks, and they are glued back together little by little.

He let out a small wow in his heart. He had never heard of it before, but he was amazed at the magic when he saw it.

Fu Lianyu mentioned to him that this is the junction of the inner circle and the outer circle. Unlike the neater center of the inner circle, this place looks much messier.

——The arrangement of the houses is quite regular. The rooms occupy the entire wall densely. There are metal pipes poking out everywhere. There are various signs hanging on them. Most of the information is maintenance, pilgrimage, extradition, followed by some words such as low price and integrity to attract attention.

Of course, there is a new layer of notices on those weird signs, with red "Martial Law" scrolling across it, the video in the middle is repeatedly played by pilgrims telling about the resurgence of "spontaneous combustion", and the bottom line is small. There is such a message as "the messenger escaped".

After reading it for a long time, Fu Yu could even memorize the words on it. He became a little bored, and took advantage of a large water area to take a look at his own reflection in the water—with two braids and an exaggerated pink color. His face was also painted, and the blush on his cheeks was very conspicuous. He was wearing clothes that were different from the clothes he used to wear. The waist was tightened and the bottom was relaxed. On the river It was windy, and the hem was still a little cool when it was blown. The shoes on my feet were hung by several chains, which were extremely heavy, and they made noise when walking.

He didn't understand why Fu Lianyu was able to wear the clothes he came out in, at most he was wearing a hat, and he wanted to dress up like this.

"Fu Lianyu..."

"I told you to shut up."

The other party lowered the brim of his hat very low, and his voice was also low, so that the eyes staring at him were full of fierce light. Fu Yu was pinching a layer of clothes, his palms were full of sticky sweat, but Fu Lianyu must He was wearing those gloves, which made him uncomfortable.

But he just looked up again to see the holographic mascot waving and winking at him.

——It was his own choice to escape. Since Fu Lianyu agreed to take him with him, there was no room for him to lose his temper.

But there is no need to be so fierce!

Fu Yu looked over with some dissatisfaction, but met the gaze of the punter head-on.

It was no longer like the peeping several times before, the punter did not look away, but stared straight at Fu Yu, and suddenly smiled, showing his yellow teeth, and the gap was black, which made Fu Yu feel disgusted , looked away, and moved to the bag on his waist.

He remembered that Fu Lianyu had given the boatman a handful of jingling small silver coins, and put them all into the bag that was already bulging. The two of them didn't need to talk, and the deal was concluded.

—Where are they going?Fu Lianyu wouldn't want to take him to... some bad place, would he?

Fu Yu was a little nervous thinking wildly, and unconsciously sat a little further away from Fu Lianyu, peeking at the man's reaction, but didn't want a hand on his waist, and moved him vigorously in the direction of reaching out.

——Ah, Fu Lianyu still loves him.

Just as he opened the small theater in his mind, the boatman put his pole on the river bank and turned a corner. The waterway opened up, and there seemed to be a door in the distance, which was vaguely hidden behind the fog and could not be seen clearly.

Fu Yu originally thought that the boat would go all the way to the door, but it stopped in the middle of the water. He looked around curiously, but was pushed back to his seat by Fu Lianyu.

"How much does it cost to cross the boundary?" Fu Lianyu stood up and asked the boatman, completely blocking Fu Yu behind him.

"Hey, hey hey."

The obscene laughter sounded, and there was a long echo. Fu Yu tried to stand up while supporting the side of the boat, but the water surface became more turbulent.

Fu Lianyu held him to prevent him from falling, and said to the punter: "The effect is good, have you installed the vocal cords?"

The boatman didn't answer, but hit him with the bamboo pole in his hand. The thin bamboo pole seemed harmless, but it split the stool Fu Yu was sitting on just now in two, and the debris splashed all over the ground. Fu Yu was frightened. He got to sit on the ground, and let go of Fu Lianyu's hands.

"The messenger, the messenger, the messenger is here..."

The boatman walked towards him and finally uttered the first complete sentence. His voice was very mechanized and smooth without any fluctuations, but Fu Yu could hear the madness inside.

"Fu Lianyu, Fu Lianyu, ah—" Fu Yu just wanted to try to climb over, but the boatman swung his pole again, and with the other hand, he inserted the broken stool leg into Fu Lianyu's hand, Pinned him to the hull of the boat.

"No, Fu Lianyu!"

There was an alarm sound in the sky, all the holographic images projected in mid-air turned into his appearance, half the sky turned red, there was the sound of chains in the mist, and the door inside closed.

——What to do, what should he do, he is going to be arrested.

"Fu Yu, take a deep breath!"

For a moment he didn't react, the punter was too close to him, and a huge shadow fell over his head, the hull suddenly tilted towards him, before he fell into the water, he finally held his breath tone.

The water was surprisingly clean. He saw the punter who was about to come towards him, but was caught back again. The surface of the water became restless, and bullets kept coming in. He looked around, but he couldn't see Fu Lianyu's shadow. .

And he keeps sinking.

Fu Lianyu probably forgot how heavy the shoes he gave him were, and dragged him all the way to the bottom of the water. No matter how he swung his arms, it was useless. The wig fell off and floated up, while the hem of his clothes flew up. , circled him around.

He thought, looking at it like this, it must look like a flower.

But he couldn't hold it anymore, how could Fu Lianyu expect him to be like a robot without needing to breathe, the water was pouring into his mouth, and the light above his head was getting dimmer.

Unexpectedly, he failed the first time he went down the mountain, and the 15-year-old youth died underwater, which is pitiful.

Fu Yu closed his eyes uncomfortably, the people in the water couldn't see the tears when they cried, and their consciousness began to blur.

Then he fell into a familiar arm, his lips were pried open by his tongue, exchanging air with him, Fu Yu still couldn't open his eyes, but he could hear a low voice talking in his ear: "You look like that tree Flower rain under the tree."

Fu Yu laughed, he thought, maybe it was because of his liking, it was obviously a similar mechanical sound, but Fu Lianyu's voice sounded much more comfortable.

When he woke up again, he was already lying in bed, and the small lamp made of candles at the head of the bed illuminated the room in a warm yellow, and the water ripples in the small window reflected in, making the whole room seem to be swimming.

"Are you awake?" Fu Lianyu was mending his hands, next to the boatman's big bag, "Drink some water first."

Fu Yu opened his mouth, his throat was so dry that he couldn't speak, so he obediently drank the glass of water beside the bed: "Where are we?"

"An underwater safehouse."

Fu Yu glanced around, there was only one bed in the room, a few pieces of furniture were scattered, and there were several computers in operation in the corner: "Is this your home?"

Fu Lianyu smiled and said: "Well, how about it, it's a bit shabby compared to your temple."

"It's great!" The child got out of the bed excitedly, and was so cold by the outside temperature, he got back in again, sniffing, "It's just a little cold."

"I have to temporarily install the temperature control. I didn't think that someone would come to visit." Fu Lianyu repaired his hand, the mechanical parts are connected, and the skin is about to regenerate. There is a conspicuous big hole in the hand. Looking at it Somewhat strange, "Heh, the attack is really ruthless."

"What happened just now?" Fu Yu felt that the room was a little too cold, and half of his face was buried in the bed. "Why did that punter suddenly attack us? I almost thought I was going to die. "

"The spontaneous combustion incident led to martial law throughout the city, which means that everyone will only stay at home. In order to prevent further accidents, even the simplest reconnaissance planes will not be dispatched, so it will be easier for us to escape, but adults probably A high reward was offered, or some special benefits, such as free promotion to become a reformed person, the old man who punted the boat took a fancy to this, and tipped off the news.”

Fu Lianyu folded the pink clothes and put them in the cabinet: "At first, I thought, if he didn't recognize him, we'd go to the outside of the circle and find my friend. If we recognized him, we'd avoid the limelight here. Thinking of old things like this can also tell that you are a messenger."

"Why did he know me? Isn't he a non-reformed person?"

"There are always some people who don't want to go to war and want to find other ways to make money." Fu Lianyu threw away the passenger's purse and walked over. "This is the junction of the inner circle and the outer circle, in the gray area." People make deals that don’t make it to the table, extradite people from both sides, and get some positions ahead of the pilgrimage, don’t think they can’t go on the pilgrimage, maybe they know better about the roads on the mountain.”

"Um……"

Fu Yu didn't know what was wrong with him, he couldn't cheer up, his head was heavy and his eyelids were heavy.

"Fu Yu?"

Fu Lianyu stroked the broken hair on his forehead, and realized that something was wrong when he noticed that the little guy was astonishingly hot. He just ran away, never thinking that Fu Yu's body raised in the greenhouse would not be able to bear such a toss.

"Fu Lianyu, I feel so uncomfortable, I can't breathe..."

"I know, good boy, don't talk, just lie down."

"I want a cupcake, okay?"

Fu Lianyu laughed, and wrapped Fu Yu in a quilt into his arms: "Sorry, Fu Yu, there are no small cakes, only sweet nutrients. When we go outside the circle, I will find a way to make it for you, okay Is it?"

The little guy in his arms didn't answer, his brows were frowning and his eyes were closed, his mouth was half open, and the skin on his lips was chapped.

Fu Lianyu suddenly had an urge to let the adults take the child back, at least when he was sitting on that tree, he would not show such a painful expression.

The candle at the bedside trembled and went out, and the whole room was plunged into darkness. The man hugged the boy, trying to warm him with his own body, but the man in his arms was shaking more and more violently.
