On the first day he arrived in Beijing, he met Subway Sadako, the Dragon Man, and a monster whose face he had never seen but which could throw long sticks to poke people's hearts.
The unlucky guy in New York may have used up all his bad luck to encounter three supernatural events in a row.
But what about him?
Although the three consecutive incidents made him a little physically and mentally exhausted, he didn't think there was anything unusual about such things happening in Beijing, and the flow of people on the streets did not decrease. It seemed as if everyone had become accustomed to such things, and even he, an "outsider", had adapted to the local customs.
........
...
Several people came to Arthur's hospital ward.
This guy was lying in a sea of colorful flowers. Ukyo saw roses and peonies. The surroundings were so solemn, as if they were commemorating a deceased British leader. The way he lay on the bed looked as if he could be buried directly after the coffin lid was closed.
The flowers were sent by his female companion Anne Hathaway and some Chinese fans. Arthur lay on the bed with his eyes open, staring at the IV bottle above his head in a daze, as if he was recalling the whole process of his murder.
"Why are you here?" Arthur, who was distracted, saw the four people at the door, and he quickly reached out to raise the bed.
"Sorry, everyone, I'm injured and can't greet you."
"It's okay." You Jing took the initiative to speak for the first time. "I heard that your heart was pierced? What happened?"
"Nothing." Arthur waved his hand and said, "You all know I'm British. After the revival of the supernatural, China is developing spiritual power, Japan is developing Yin-Yang magic, and a group of people in the UK have been involved in alchemy. A friend of mine helped me refine a life-substitute puppet. The main body is kept in the UK. If I have an accident in a foreign country, the puppet will die for me. This thing is the end of the integration of Chinese and Western cultures. The puppet was made using the failed [Human Body Training Technique], but the inscriptions engraved on the puppet are Chinese and Japanese voodoo dolls and cursed scarecrows..."
The more they listened, the more silent they became.
Everyone felt like there was a grudge stuck in their throat and they didn't know where to start.
"that....."
Arthur suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"Everyone, considering that we once lived and died together, can you send someone to protect me?"
"You mean, that thing will come again?" Qinzi immediately realized what Arthur meant by this.
"Yes." Arthur said with some fear: "That thing just made eye contact with me and then threw a black stick at me. It seemed that its goal was very clear, just to kill me. But now I'm not dead, who knows if it will attack me again?"
"Did you see the black shadow clearly?" Youjing asked.
"No, but a humanoid creature." Arthur poked the "Enter" key of the notebook on the small table on the bed, and a video captured by a surveillance camera began to play, but it was a video slowed down 10 times by a high-speed camera.
Supernatural incidents occur frequently in Beijing. In order to solve cases more efficiently after each incident, the municipal government has upgraded the surveillance equipment at many intersections. The surveillance equipment on the section of road where Arthur was killed had just been upgraded.
Everyone gathered around Arthur at the same time and looked at the screen.
In the video, Arthur's voice is very clear, and the high-speed camera captured all the details of his face. After zooming in, you can even see the pores on his face. It's just that the video speed is very slow because it was artificially slowed down ten times.
Youjing saw Arthur in the picture suddenly raise his gun, and the speed of the video suddenly returned to normal. This does not mean that the speed of the video returned to normal, but that Arthur raised the gun very quickly, and at ten times the speed, there was no difference from the normal speed.
At the moment when the flame spurted out of the muzzle of the gun, a black figure appeared in the distance, threw a black stick-like object at an extremely fast speed and disappeared. At ten times the speed, people could only see its shape clearly for two frames. When Arthur paused the video at the position of those two frames, the black figure in the picture could not be captured clearly by the camera because of its high-speed movement. You know, this is a high-speed camera, which can even clearly record the take-off of a hummingbird.
Ukyo thought of the tall and thin figure, that guy also moved very fast.
The reason why a high-speed camera cannot capture a clear image is not necessarily because the target is moving too fast. Another possibility is that the existence of the target itself is blurry.
There has never been a clear image of the Slender Man on the Internet, which has resulted in the ghost images that have appeared around the world being blurry and more difficult to deal with than those strange creatures with physical bodies.
Because the image was not clear, people couldn't even tell whether the weapon it used was a long stick.
He could just as easily have thrown a large spear, or a long sword or something like that.
......
...
Yanaijian did not write down the fact that Arthur was attacked in his notes.
And what she wrote in her notes only happened in part.
After Kotoko and Sakuragawa Kuro left, many visitors came one after another. Ukyo stayed in the room until the afternoon because he promised Arthur that he would stay in the ward to protect him for a while.
The afternoon sun filled the ward. A person was leaning against the wall opposite the bed, his arms folded across his chest, staring out the window in a daze.
Ukyo.
He silently looked at Arthur on the bed. The guy was sleeping soundly, snoring loudly. Yanami was lying on the bed beside him, browsing his phone. For some reason, Ukyo felt a little unhappy, but he obviously had no resentment about protecting Arthur. Could it be that he didn't want to see Yanami lying on Arthur's bed, browsing his phone?
Impossible.
Yanami, staring at her phone, accidentally glanced at the screen and noticed that Ukyo's eyes were empty, as if he was staring at her face, which was gloomy and reflected the rapid changes of the afternoon sunset. Yanami felt a little hungry, so she suddenly opened the document and typed on it -
At 5:20 pm, Youjing asked her, "Are you hungry? The hospital cafeteria seems to serve food at this time. You haven't eaten in a Chinese cafeteria, right? I'll bring you something."
This sentence is basically impossible to appear, because Youjing will never run errands for her.
"Want to eat?" You Jing suddenly said, "The hospital cafeteria should be open by now. I'm going to stay here to watch over Arthur. If you're hungry, you can go downstairs and eat on your own. Just remember to bring me a portion."
Really...
Yanami looked at the screen.
Although the content of her words did not match what she wrote, the general meaning was correct. In short, it was about eating.
Does this mean that if the content written in the mobile phone memo does not conform to the actual situation, it will be forcibly revised to conform to reality?
So if she wrote in the memo that Ukyo would confess his feelings to her tonight, would that mean...
Ok.
Yanai sees that the person in charge is the one who dares to think and act.
On her way to the cafeteria, she typed this line in the memo without any trembling of her fingers and with an extremely determined look in her eyes.
But considering the "rationality", it is absolutely impossible for Ukyo to confess to her out of thin air, so Yanami tried to fabricate the cause and effect, such as the inducement for the confession, the opportunity for the confession...
This thing is difficult to make up, and Yanami really can't think of any incentive.
She spent a long time eating this meal, thinking about how to edit this diary the whole time.
She began to admire Xiaoju more and more. How on earth could that guy manage to write 4000 words every night when he turned on his computer? Wasn't there any creative bottleneck at all?
Thinking of this, she suddenly realized that Xiaoju is a natural cheating device.
She immediately cut out Xiaoju Zhihua's chat frame——
"Xiaoju Xiaoju! Save me!"
"I need you to help me write a romantic sentence in which Ukyo confesses his love to me. The whole process must be very clear!"
Xiaoju: [Huh?]
Yanami: [What?! Don't laugh at me!]
Xiaoju: [Is it because you can't get what you want in real life that you've resorted to using words to fantasize about it? It's okay, I understand. I felt the same way when I read some romance light novels. By the way, when ordinary love can't satisfy you, most people will try exciting literature like BL. Of course, it can also be Futanari or Fourth Love...]
Yanami: [...I feel like I'll never accept BL in my lifetime, oops~! Why are you saying all that?! Just say it's cool and write it for me!]
Xiaoju Zhihua: [Spreading her hands... I can't help. The character settings in fan fiction are fixed. Ukyo's character is very clear. Wouldn't it be OOC if he took the initiative to confess his feelings to you? Of course, if you don't care about the character settings, I can also help you express yourself freely. Forget confessing, even having sex and having a fourth love are fine!]
Yanami: [Shut up! Don't mention the fourth love anymore!]
【...】
Damn it.
There is no way to use humanoid writing plug-ins.
Yanai was sitting in the cafeteria scratching his head. After thinking for a hundred times, he still couldn't find a solution. He had no choice but to pack a box lunch for Ukyo and heat it up for him in the public microwave.
Volume 134: Chapter 5 Gemini and Sagittarius don't seem to get along well (K)
Ukyo looked up at the clock on the wall opposite the bed.
Yanai saw that the meal took an hour, but that was nothing, as it was normal not to be able to find the cafeteria since one was unfamiliar with the place. The guidance here was quite average, with only directions to the medical departments, but no directions to the cafeteria.
Ukyo thought she just spent a long time looking for a restaurant, or spent a long time eating, and never thought that she would make up a story in the cafeteria.
When Yanaijian brought up the lunch box, he looked at the rice in the big compartment and the scrambled eggs with tomatoes, shredded pork with fish flavor, and a separate fried chicken leg in the other three small compartments, and suddenly felt a little nostalgic.
He reached out and tried it. The lunch box was hot, but the food inside was only slightly warm.
This is obviously the result of heating it in the microwave and not heating it thoroughly.
Youjing had also eaten in the cafeteria. He knew that under normal circumstances, there would often be nothing left in the cafeteria after the person in charge of bringing the food finished eating, and the food that the person brought back for his good brothers was often cold.
However, your godfather who brings you lunch will not help you put the lunch box into the microwave to heat it up before sending it to you. When dealing with brothers, the feelings are often not so delicate, and your brother does not mind eating cold rice.
But if your brother heats up the food you brought back in the public microwave in advance, then your brother may have developed some feelings for you that go beyond friendship.
After Yanai brought the meal back, she ran to Arthur's bed and played with her cell phone. She was still chatting with Xiaoju.
Xiaoju: [Yana~, where are you guys? ]
【Hospital, what are you doing? 】
[It’s okay] Xiaoju replied.
Yanami realized that something seemed wrong. She clicked on Xiaoju Zhihua's profile picture and found that the other party's location was actually in Beijing.
"?"
Yanami: [What's going on with your location? Why are you in Beijing?]
Xiaoju: [It’s nothing, I’ve connected a VPN, the address can be changed at will]
Yanaijian: [I don't believe you! You're not coming to Beijing too, are you?]
Xiaoju: [Yeah, you guys went out for the winter break and didn't take me with you, so I had to come here on my own. I've already written a draft in advance and set it up for posting on a schedule, but I've only written for two days, so I still have to write on the third day.]
Xiaoju, who likes to be a home girl, actually takes the initiative to go out.
Yanaijian guessed that she had wanted to come to Beijing for a long time, but her social network was not as good as his, so she was slower than him in processing her "visa" and "passport". Otherwise, she would have definitely followed him secretly on the first day.
Shikiya's liking for Ukyo was out of interest, but it was a fleeting passion that faded away after a short while.
Tian Aixing's love for Youjing originated from a kind help she gave him in junior high school, but after being explicitly rejected by Youjing, her open love was forced to turn into a secret love, and she could only secretly like him in secret, as there was no opportunity to continue pursuing him openly.
But Xiaoju is different. Her love for Ukyo comes from "life-saving grace" and "new life". Xiaoju's gradual transformation from the negative role to the positive role is almost entirely dependent on Ukyo. For this kind of character who gives redemption in her life... Xiaoju Chika is completely different from the above two. She will never give up easily.
So Xiaoju has always been a potential threat to Yanami. When she saw that Xiaoju's location had changed to Beijing, she felt a little anxious, but not too anxious.
Yanami felt that Komari was not a threat to her. This potential destabilizing factor was F-level. In comparison, her level might not be as high as that of Shikiya, who was only enthusiastic for a short time, or even lower than that of the student council's Hotohara.
Yanami has always felt that Hoshinohara is an excellent woman who can match Ukyo, so even if they have never had any intersection in life, the danger factor of Hoshinohara Hibara is higher than that of Komari Chika.
.......
...
Xiaoju is here at night.
She picks the time well.
Ukyo's purpose is to "keep an eye on Arthur" to prevent him from being attacked by the strange black shadow again, so he won't sleep all night.
But Yanajian was different. She was not a night owl, and Xiaoju knew very well that once she fell asleep, she would sleep very soundly. She would not wake up even if someone kept setting off firecrackers outside the window.
When Xiaoju arrived, Ukyo was the only one in the ward with his eyes open. Xiaoju didn't know if it was an illusion under the moonlight or if there were other things in the room that could be reflected, but she saw that Ukyo's eyes were some kind of light gold.
Ukyo didn't know that Xiaomari was coming. When he saw Xiaomari standing at the door wearing a down jacket and wrapping herself like a hedgehog, Ukyo looked quite surprised.
She obviously didn't make a travel plan and didn't know that Beijing's winter is freezing cold and much colder than Fengqiao. This can be seen from her down jacket with the tag still on. She must have bought it at a supermarket near the airport.
"Why are you here?" You Jing asked in a low voice.
"Staying at home, I feel... a bit bored." No matter how lively she appears online, once she is offline, she will turn back into the socially anxious Xiaoju Zhihua.
In the quiet ward, Ukyo looked at Komari.
"You haven't had time to properly explore Beijing yet, have you? Shall we go together tomorrow?"
"Yeah." Xiaoju nodded gently.
Youjing knew that Xiaoju definitely did not come to Beijing to play by herself, because her friends were in Beijing, so this girl who had never traveled far with her friends would fly to Beijing alone.
The two looked at each other in silence for a long time in the dark night. Perhaps they were afraid of disturbing the two people who were sleeping. In addition, neither of them was the kind of person who would speak actively, so the atmosphere remained tense.
About an hour later, Ukyo suddenly asked, "When do you know for sure that you like a girl? No, I should say...when do you know for sure that you like a boy?"
Ukyo stared into Xiaoju's eyes with a very serious expression, which made Xiaoju scared. The last time she saw Ukyo so serious was when the clown first started the killing game.
Xiaoju tilted her head back, tucked her hands into her sleeves, and thought for a long time. Suddenly, she covered her mouth and laughed playfully. She seemed to have discovered some shocking secret and said, "If you were thinking of someone when you asked me just now, then she is the one you like."
