The five-day quarantine inspection is finally over.
Yin Ren stood at the door of Ping An Manor and looked around with emotion.
Everything around me seemed very strange. The neighbor's security door has a brighter color, and the scratches on the wall are full of art. Zhong Cheng lowered his head and opened the door. Even the click of the key in the door lock was brand new.
Yin Ren stared at the pleats on Zhong Chengshuo's back. They were also novel pleats, which made people feel comfortable.
The door opened slowly.
At noon, the ghosts didn't know where to rest. Warm light scattered on the wooden floor, soaked by the sunlight, and the green plants all over the house glowed with an emerald color.
After being away for too long, the smell in the room is particularly strong. The smell of plants, the smell of wood, mixed with the smell of himself and Zhong Cheng. The weather has been getting cooler lately, so this blend is refreshing, yet warm to the core.
Every pore of Yin Ren seemed to be immersed in warm water, and he subconsciously stretched his body. Just as he stretched his waist halfway, a pair of arms stretched out from behind and gently hugged him.
The body temperature Zhong Cheng said wrapped around his back.
There was a little more weight on Yin Ren's shoulders. Zhong Cheng said that his chin was pressed against his shoulder and neck, and his breathing was light and even. They all slipped into the side of Yin Ren's neck, and there was no waste at all.
"Really?" Zhong Cheng said, turning his face sideways.
"My mobile phone."
His hair swam along Zhong Chengshuo's limbs, hooking around his waist, wrists and ankles. Yin Ren "hugged back" in his own way, carefully feeling the other person's soft and warm skin.
"I just wanted to ask you about that thing watching us in the archives—"
Yin Ren remembered that Zhong Cheng said he usually didn't like being touched by others.
"chocolate cake."
"Don't want to go out to eat?"
It’s not the dog’s fault. They went to the archives, and they were given prompts and warnings, but they didn't even get half a bite of food. After he came out, he stayed with Yin Ren for five days, not daring to say a word.
A few seconds later, the dog emerged from the pocket where Yin Ren pressed the hardest, limping on its four thin black legs. It crawled firmly between the two heads, turned left and right vigorously, and displayed the four words "Low Battery" on the black screen.
"Why, that's what you said yourself."
Yin Ren leaned back and tried harder to absorb the warmth. He gave a flying kick in the heart, kicking the mysteries into his heart.
Something was struggling angrily under him, and its thin legs were poking at Yin Ren.
"No snail noodles and stinky tofu." Zhong Cheng said quickly.
They stared at the sunny ceiling, maintaining a comfortable silence. It's like two ordinary people lying on an ordinary afternoon.
Zhong Cheng said, rubbing a strand of long hair with his fingertips, and there was a little more smile in his voice: "Yeah."
Yin Ren: "..."
"Don't worry, I remember that we will live together for a long time." Yin Ren couldn't help laughing.
One by one, it may be the gentlest tide in the world.
Yin Ren decided to re-introduce this non-human thing and let his non-human lover study it. Maybe the negative becomes the positive, and Lord Yama can figure out the reason.
Yin Ren took advantage of the situation to lie down next to Zhong Chengshuo. Their feet were just being embraced by the bright sunshine, and the temperature was just right.
For five days after the relationship was confirmed, the two failed to contact each other. Yin Ren didn't have a strong concept at first, but with the familiar body temperature at this moment, the memory of those five days was suddenly stretched as long as five years.
[Medium strong.]The dog couldn't wait to answer.
The dog sprinted and jumped high, and the screen was directly covered with the evil power. It absorbed all the power, and then reluctantly restored the screen display, and the battery capacity also increased to 2% perfunctorily.
Being angrily pressed by the dog, Yin Ren stretched out his fingers logically, and a bit of dark evil power condensed from his fingertips.
Zhong Cheng's fingers froze for a few seconds, and he squeezed him harder. Yin Ren slowly took in the breath of home, and as soon as he started to sigh with satisfaction, it was blocked in his throat—
Now that they were finally released, they still had to openly talk about dinner in front of it.
The evil force was extremely solid, curling around his fingertips like an extra-large jet-black mercury bead.
Ten minutes passed and Zhong Cheng said he was motionless.
He had expected that after five days of separation, they would have many questions and many things to say. There are too many mysteries around Shi'an, the Sinking Society, the mysterious peeper... and each other.
He pulled the ends of his hair onto Zhong Cheng's calf. Zhong Cheng lost his balance and fell towards the carpet surrounded by hair.
Just celebrate that they have been dating for a week.
"I don't want to go anywhere." Yin Ren quietly let go of his senses and felt the other person's fingertips. "I want to celebrate tonight. I want to order some takeout."
“It kind of reacts to the world in the archives, and you can take it and look at it.”
He tidied his hair proudly and held her closer.
Oh, this is about to explode, Yin Ren thought.
But he didn't want to think about it anymore.
Zhong Cheng said: "What do you want to eat tonight?"
"Don't stand if you can lie down." The two of them were shoulder to shoulder, and Yin Ren muttered earnestly.
"Woof woof woof!" The dog barked like a bell and slammed the screen into Yin Ren's face.
Yin Ren took off the audacious mobile phone and placed it between the two of them.
"Well, it said I'm a 'weak'." Yin Ren snorted twice, "It also said those little monsters in Guo Laifu's head are also 'weak.'"
Yin Ren frowned.
The same rating a dog would give to a mysterious sniper. Is it true that masters are everywhere now and are no longer as vicious as dogs
"Then Cheng told me..."
[Siren: Zhong Cheng said, the weakest person at the bottom.]
[Siren: Yin Ren, cannot be sure.]
It squeezed out the answer word by word.
[Siren: The breath is too weird.]
[Siren: Unable to judge.]
Zhong Cheng hesitated: "Is it scolding us?"
Yin Ren: "..."
Yin Ren: "Maybe."
Zhong Cheng said he examined the dog thing for a while and then turned his attention back to his mobile phone.
"I want to make the news about our relationship public. Minister Fu definitely didn't say it. Sister Lu and the others didn't respond." Zhong Cheng said sliding his thumb up and down, scrolling through his circle of friends, "If you don't have any objection-"
Yin Ren reached out his hand and covered the screen of Zhong Cheng's phone: "Goodbye now." Zhong Cheng said, looking at Yin Ren in confusion, the tips of his hair hanging down a bit.
"To be honest, I seriously do not meet your parents' acceptance criteria. I need to be formally recognized." Yin Ren's expression was more serious than before, "Let's deal with the two, uh, old people first."
night.
Zhong Cheng said he went back to the room and closed the door. Two seconds later, he seemed to have come to his senses. He lightly walked to the door and opened the tight bedroom door a crack.
Then the man stood still in front of the crack of the door, tangled in place.
Mr. Yin, who witnessed the whole process: "..."
Yin Ren raised his voice: "Do you want to sleep together tonight?"
"Not for the time being. I need time to adapt." Zhong Cheng said that after thinking about it for a century, he finally pulled down his nightcap and almost covered his eyes. "I will be very nervous and my sleep quality will definitely be problematic."
After that, he floated into the bathroom like a ghost and started to wash up.
Yin Ren lay back on the sofa a little sadly. He quietly parted a strand of hair and lurked next to Zhong Cheng's pillow, ready to steal some breath and heartbeat.
As a result, Zhong Cheng said that this strand of hair was arrested on the spot. He clutched them into his palms and fell into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, the strand of hair shrank with difficulty and slipped out of Zhong Chengshuo's palm.
Yin Ren took out a piece of chocolate cake from the refrigerator, packed it with various snacks and drinks, and placed the tablet computer and e-book on top.
He quietly laid out white paper on the sofa, started drawing circles with cinnabar, and drew complex patterns. After confirming that Zhong Cheng was asleep, Yin Ren lay down in the center of the white paper.
The white paper swallowed him up like a swamp.
When he saw Yin Ren, Guo Wei almost fell off the edge of the rooftop.
The escape game has long ended, and Guo Wei is sitting on the rooftop of the main teaching building in a daze.
Guo Laifu gradually regained consciousness, and it was only a matter of time before he was executed. Guo Wei thought he would pass away very quietly. Instead of being surrounded by food and movies you’ve never seen before.
"Brother Yin, you..." Unlike the phantom in his dream, Yin Ren clearly came to visit in the flesh.
"Shh." Yin Ren made a quiet gesture, "Help me hold my breath, don't let Shi'an find out."
Guo Wei didn't ask any more questions. He stared at the visitor in shock.
Kong Wanqing told him before that Yin Ren was probably a very powerful evil being. But Guo Wei looked left and right, and "Qiang" could tell that he couldn't see anything about the other party that looked like an evil thing.
"These are all rewards. I want to rent the rooftop for three hours every night until you... leave."
Yin Ren put down the sumptuous food and electronic products, sat on the rooftop next to Guo Wei, and handed out a piece of chocolate cake: "This is a bonus, it is the cake that Cheng and I said we were dating to celebrate."
Guo Wei: "..."
There is no need to explain it so clearly, he doesn't want to know the world of adults.
Guo Wei held the cake plate and looked at it for a long time, then carefully licked the cream from the corner. The sweetness of the cake was just right, and it was a rich flavor that could not be compared with the pastries in the canteen. He had not had time to taste it when he was alive.
Guo Wei lowered his eyes and looked at the piece of cake for a while. He pursed his lips and sighed like an old man: "Aren't you afraid that I will miss this and want to turn into a ghost?"
"That's your choice too." Yin Ren tasted the thick, slightly bitter chocolate sauce.
"Forget it." Guo Wei chewed the dessert cherishingly, "I have tried it before. If I leave the campus far enough, I will forget about this place. Then my heart will be empty, and it will always come back... I searched here. I don’t want to keep searching for the rest of my life.”
Yin Ren opened a can of soda and gave it to Guo Wei: "Then live happily until the end."
"What else do you want to eat? Just tell me. This place is very precious. In exchange for food, I can take advantage of you."
"Then I want to eat pot-roasted pork and cold noodles." Guo Wei thought for a while, "Li Xiaoya mentioned that she likes these two dishes the most."
"No problem." Yin Ren pulled out the tablet and electronic paper book. "I gave you the electronic paper book. I bought a lot of books in it. There are also movies on the tablet, but I have to take it back in the morning - take it and read it."
Guo Wei's dead eyes exuded vitality that shouldn't have been there: "What about you?"
Yin Ren stood up and thumped his waist: "Do some exercises."
Under night, on the rooftop.
Guo Wei was lying on the rooftop, eating snacks and watching a movie, his cloudy eyes full of bright light and shadow.
Yin Ren built a dark hemisphere around himself and locked himself tightly in it.
After making sure that Guo Wei couldn't see the scene inside, Yin Ren took a deep breath and activated a little bit of evil power.
Sure enough, the out-of-control dizziness and pain were countless times greater than the outside world.
In the darkness, Yin Ren twitched and curled up. The five senses were confused, and the internal organs seemed to be torn apart. It was like a never-ending fall, and the confusion almost made him throw up his dinner.
Thin arms protruded from his chest, and his calves were covered with strange black feathers. Yin Ren dug hard at the cement floor with both hands. He was afraid of hurting Guo Wei's memory, so he did not use the evil power to protect his body, leaving only bloody scratches.
Ten minutes passed, and with a painful gasp, the arm retracted and the black feather disappeared. Yin Ren shook his bloody fingertips and started a new round of attempts.
He repeatedly tamed the power he had gained.
Three hours later, he repaired his fingertips and opened the barrier unsteadily. Guo Wei just finished watching a long movie and ate all the snacks around him.
But after seeing Yin Ren, the happiness on his face faded a little and became a little more worried.
"Are you okay?" Guo Wei asked softly.
This kid is really too sensitive to "pain". Yin Ren rubbed his face and said, "It's very good, but I'm a little tired from practicing."
"You are already strong, why are you still like this..." Guo Wei clenched the e-book in his hand.
"I can't help it. I originally wanted to take it slow. Unfortunately, I fell in love with a troublesome guy. When the critical moment comes, I have to be able to catch him."
There was no trace of gloom on Yin Ren's face.
"I can only be less lazy. It's all his fault."
Guo Wei was not fooled by the relaxed tone, and the young man did not hide the worry in his eyes.
"I'm really fine."
Yin Ren stretched his limbs.
"I've long been used to this level."
Shi'an Park.
Shi'an obtained valuable information about the birth of Li Gui, but they did not take their eyes away from two suspicious persons.
"There's something wrong with those two people in Group Nine." Li Nian looked at the mission report.
"Who says it's not?" Fu Xingchuan slumped on the sofa, his tassel earrings scattered in a mess, "Guo Wei is a half-step ghost who has been holding back for half a year, and Yin Ren is a big living person, and his battle is even more exaggerated than Guo Wei. To say that This guy is a genius, but he didn’t look like it during the physical examination, did he?”
When he was still in the archives, according to the wristband record, Zhong Cheng said that he didn't have any negative emotions during the whole process. He is the first visitor in the history of the archives. This symptom cannot be explained by simple "mental abnormality".
Fu Xingchuan decided to ease his worries and ignore the fact that the two little beasts were in love for the time being.
Kong Wanqing, one of Shi'an's old acquaintances, has the ability of the "resonance" branch. After being strengthened with the power of evil, this ability should be invincible in the archives.
As a result, he faced off against the pair from the ninth group, and neither of them survived or died. The cause of Guo Laifu's illness is suspected to be destroyed, but no one has given out the details of the cause.
That closed campus has completely become a black box.
Strange things always happened around those two people before. There are only three things that can happen. As a metaphysician, Fu Xingchuan has never believed in so many coincidences.
It's a pity that suspicion is suspicion, and they have no clear evidence.
"Liang Shan's cognitive contamination is very complete. Did he lose his sight?" Fu Xingchuan sighed towards the ceiling, "At that time, he swore that Zhong Cheng said and Yin Ren were both human beings."
Li Nian shook the thermos cup and looked at the city under the sun.
"It's not unusual to be a human being. Have there been many strange things lately?"
"In less than two months, there have been four cases involving evil sources of pollution. Xiang Jiang just returned from Luotian City some time ago, and the Sinking Club there is also spreading pollution like crazy."
"It is suspected that the evil spirit has broken the seal, the evil spirit has gone out of control, and the pollution sources have been scattered everywhere. This situation is a bit like the original-"
"Etc., etc."
Fu Xingchuan jumped up in horror: "Holy shit, don't be so talkative, that's not a joke!"
"How many years have it been? Isn't the interval a thousand years? I still want to live for two more days."
Li Nian didn't say anything. He silently dialed something and turned the screen in the direction of Fu Xingchuan.
"There is no evidence that the interval between occurrences of 'that phenomenon' is more than a thousand years."
"I don't want to look." Fu Xingchuan covered his eyes. He slowly lay back on the sofa and turned to the back of the sofa. "I don't want to experience it a second time in my life. It's bad luck. I won't look at it."
"Escape from reality."
Li Nian pointed out coldly.
"You want to know the situation of those two people, I'm just providing an angle of entry."
What was on his computer was a piece of information on anomalies, with black text on a white background, and it looked very ordinary.
[Phenomenon A-A2: God Descends]
[There is little information and there is no unified judgment standard yet]
[Overview: An image of a large amount of evil force erupting from no source, with unknown causes.
The divine descent lasts less than 24 hours and will not cause damage to physical facilities. The divine descending affects an area with a radius of about 100 kilometers, and the evil spirit value in the center may exceed 60,000fR.
In the center of God's descent, there will be a large number of biological pollution causing death, mental disorder, and disappearance. The organisms in marginal areas are less polluted, and polluters are more likely to suffer from mental illness.
According to records, the killing behavior after the gods descend will trigger a "sense of gaze", and a few murderers claim to have received "the happiness given by gods" and saw the "road to eternity." From July to September 2006, the Sinking Society organized 6 large-scale sacrifices after the God descended. During this period, the number of homicides in Haigu City and surrounding areas soared 46.3 times.
"God's descent" does not last long, and the risk rating of the phenomenon itself is lower than that of "evil". But it appeared earlier than the evil evil, and it is suspected to be one of the causes of the evil evil. The two recorded "divine descents" occurred around 4xx and 2xxx respectively, and their centers were both near Haigu City.]
[Handling method (reference): Immediately after the disaster, strengthen police resources in the outbreak area, and refer to the "First-level Emergency Plan for Major Phenomenon Events" to immediately conduct a comprehensive cleanup of the outbreak area to eliminate the evil force pollution.
Please pay special attention to the secondary effects of evil forces, and provide appropriate treatment and placement for people with special abilities.]
Fu Xingchuan couldn't escape. He turned over sadly and looked directly at Li Nian's computer screen -
The date of the most recent "divine descent" was exactly 28 years ago.
