With the figure's hand running over his throat inch by inch, its throat really opened a slit.
A large amount of blood sprayed along the wound, and the figure's throat was pulled bigger and bigger by an unknown cut, and finally the entire head fell backwards, crumbling in mid-air, only the last bit of flesh and blood remained.
Strangely, the blood did not splash on the ground in front of it, but was absorbed by its clothes in the process of flowing.
In the sight of everyone, the figure turned slowly, its head dangling back, and those lost eyes were still staring at the reincarnators.
When Xiao Li walked down a flight of steps and wanted to go across the street, the figure disappeared again as if he had come.
Xu Jiaheng was just an ordinary student who was suddenly involved in the ghost incident. His face turned pale from the excitement he had been surging before. His chest heaved and he subconsciously asked the reincarnators for help: "It... the wound on its body. More and more, is this an omen?"
The rest were silent for a while, Wang Huai and Xiao Li looked at each other whose figures had disappeared, and the rest looked at each other.
Wen Wenwen was the first to respond: "It should be."
His answer was a bit perfunctory, because he was thinking about a more important matter.
"I... What should I do?" Xu Jiaheng didn't pay attention to his tone, and just wanted to vent his inner panic, "I, I don't want to go home, I'm afraid of my mother, my mother has become so strange, she It must have been infected by the ghost just now!"
Now the reincarnators are in a rather contradictory situation. First, if he takes Xu Jiaheng with him, will the reincarnators be affected when the ghost attacks him; the second is if he ignores Xu Jiaheng, will he be affected? Lost your way
Kecia weighed these two points and asked Xu Jiaheng: "If you don't go to class, will the school tell your mother?"
"I, I have asked my roommate to help with leave, the teacher should not tell her." Xu Jiaheng whispered.
"should?"
"Sure, I've done it before, she never knew."
Wang Huai gave a slight "tsk", but no one paid any attention to him.
Kesia followed his train of thought: "But if you don't go back at night, your mother will definitely come..."
In such a closed town, it was easy to find someone.
"As long as you can take me in, I have a solution," Xu Jiaheng thought of a solution, his eyes lit up, "I can ask my roommate to ask for leave for me, saying that I have an exam soon, and I have to go to her house to do my homework, My mother wouldn't doubt her."
He has already made up his mind, even if these people don't want to take him away, he will live at the same table home no matter what, and will never come back home again.
"and many more."
Kersia pulled the other reincarnators and stood a little further away from Xu Jiaheng: "How? I tend to let him live in the living room on the first floor, or we can buy a house next door for him."
"Not so good?" Wen Wenwen raised an objection, "I didn't know what happened in the movie theater before? When the ghost attacked him, it was easy to involve us, and with one more person, there was always a risk."
Tsuruta did not echo their topic, but asked another question: "What did the figure you see just now look like?"
"Throat cut."
"That's what I saw."
"In short, it's not complete, right? But in Xu Jiaheng's narration, the figure he saw at the beginning was not wounded, but intact." Hetian glanced at Xu Jiaheng from the corner of his eye, and said with a straight face, "And the figure we saw was headless from the beginning, so I suspect that we have been accelerated and we must keep him."
"I agree." This was Jin Handong's voice.
Wen Wenwen put his hands together and rubbed his face. He didn't pay attention, and the beating was a little harder. He bared his teeth and grinned, then turned to look for the other bosses.
Xiao Li was squatting on the upper steps and asked the little boy, "Have you ever left this town?"
"No." Xu Jiaheng shook his head hesitantly, "My mother said, we can't leave here, this is our root, the place where we were born and died."
Xiao Li: "Has anyone you know ever gone out?"
"No, going out is strictly forbidden."
"Every year people like us come in?"
"Yes, it's not fixed, but none of them have ever left here. Some are married to locals, some I don't know about, maybe settled down or maybe..." Xu Jiaheng left a blank.
He has never considered or cared about these issues. This is the education of their ancestors.
Xiao Li lowered his eyes and asked softly, "Do you want to go out?"
Xu Jiaheng: "What?"
"It's all right," he stood up, patting the dust on the bottom of his cloak, "I'm done asking."
"Then it's my turn to ask you," Wen Wenwen was already standing by and waiting, "Will you bring it?"
He asked endlessly, but Xiao Li understood what he meant in a second, he turned back and looked at Xu Jiaheng below for a second: "Take it."
The rest of the people, Shen Mizhi chooses whatever Xiao Li chooses, Wang Huai doesn't know what's wrong, and he also follows Xiao Li, that is, except Wen Wenwen who wants to be safe, everyone else chooses adventure.
"Okay, okay." Wen Wenwen sighed, "Take it."
They negotiated roughly and found that it was unrealistic to buy a flat nearby, and the nearest small house was two blocks away, so the final result could only be to let Xu Jiaheng sleep on the sofa.
That night, Xu Jiaheng sat on the sofa in the reincarnation's residence, looking out the window from time to time, shivering.
Xiao Li was sitting on the edge of the table, holding a cup of hot coffee in his hand. It was Wen Wenwen who made a cup for everyone just now. He couldn't refuse. Come down and touch the candy.
When he bent down, he didn't know why, and the whole person fell backward. He tried to support the ground with one hand in the middle, but his hand didn't support it.
Xiao Li originally thought that he would sit on the ground, and he even prayed leisurely that he would not fall too hard, but then he was greeted by a soft but firm object.
Shen Mizhi bumped into such a living person head-on in his arms, but he felt no pain, just lowered his head and grabbed Xiao Li's arm: "Let me come next time."
He let go of him, bent over to find the sugar in the spice box under the cupboard, and pulled out a pack of creamer from the refrigerator.
Xiao Li stood behind him with his cloak loose, watching his movements, and whispered, "...One bag is not enough."
Shen Mizhi's movements paused, and finally took two packs.
Xiao Li originally wanted to say, "Two packets are not enough." He didn't like hard things, and preferred milk tea to coffee, but seeing Shen Mizhi's appearance, he still swallowed this sentence.
Shen Mizhi closed the refrigerator door, tore the package of the creamer, and helped Xiao Li put it in.
Xiao Li waited obediently by the side, and when Shen Mizhi saw it out of the corner of his eye, he felt an itch in his heart, and wanted to turn around and hug such an obedient person, kissing the corner of the boy's eye.
This thought made Shen Mizhi spill the creamer a little, but he didn't show anything, he threw away the package neatly, and put the coffee in front of Xiao Li.
When everything was done, Xiao Li sat back at the table, stirred the liquid in the cup with a spoon, and looked at the palm of his hand thoughtfully.
In another place, Wen Wenzheng, standing by the window, was discussing with Hetian and others what happened in the movie theater just now. He said very quietly, and there was no possibility of being heard by Xu Jiaheng: "What do you think?"
"Related to the movie?" Tsuruta is a very direct person, "I don't know if this movie 'peeping' is a hint, or is it just a world?"
"The figure is exactly the same as the person in the movie, maybe the movie was projected into reality and walked out of the movie..." Wen Wenwen speculated.
"Assume that if the 'can't leave the cinema rule' is violated, the movie will become a reality, and the movie character will come to the copy world to 'peep' on us, but what is the urgency of the whole town? relation?"
Kesia inexplicably thought of the post about Hercule in the forum, she paused for a while before slowly saying: "The movie in the movie? Could this whole town be a big movie...? And we just In the movie, watch the 'Peep' the movie?"
After all, Xiao Ni, the protagonist in Peep, was actually watching a horror movie at the beginning.
"Missing dolls again?" Wen Wenwen muttered, "but this hint is too obvious, two same taboos are easily reminiscent of this layer. And how can they be used as a hidden way of life in a movie... Kill the director? Jump off the big screen?"
This brings up the issue of dimension again.
The wind outside the window became cold at this time. Instead of blowing away the layer of fog that was thicker because of the night, it made it even more mysterious.
Keshia reached out her hand to close the window, but the first time her hand trembled because of the wind, she missed the window switch, and the second time she managed to close the window.
At this moment, Xu Jiaheng, who had been sitting on the sofa and playing with his mobile phone, suddenly shouted: "My mother is calling!"
Wen Wenwen swallowed what he just wanted to say and walked over quickly, only to see Xu Jiaheng throwing his phone on the table, staring at the screen of the phone as if facing a great enemy, which was displaying:
[Mom calls.]
Xiao Li walked over holding the cup of coffee: "Go ahead?"
Xu Jiaheng: "I, I dare not..."
He was even more afraid of the normal-sized mother who was hiding in the closet than the mother who was standing up to the ceiling.
"If you don't pick up, she may be confused and come over." Xiao Li reminded calmly.
He lowered his head and took a sip of the coffee, feeling that it wasn't sweet enough, and wanted to vomit it back, but he swallowed it as his throat wriggled.
Xu Jiaheng was crying, but he still picked up the phone and pressed the connect button nervously. He didn't click well, and clicked a second time: "Hello?"
"Xiaoheng, how is your study?" His mother's voice came from the outside phone.
Xu Jiaheng: "It's very, very good. There are some knowledge points that I didn't understand in class. I understand it as soon as she talks about it."
"That's it, that's good. I still have some fruit at home. I'll cut it up and bring it to you for supper." His mother cared earnestly.
Xu Jiaheng organized the sentence: "No no no, there is fruit here, oh, don't worry about it, do you still want me to study hard?!"
"Learning is important, so forget it," he said with a mother laugh, his voice as normal as every night in the past, "but ah, Ah Heng, you have to remember one sentence..."
Xu Jiaheng had a bad feeling in his heart and didn't answer.
Just listening to the phone's microphone, his mother said word by word: "Mom, I've been watching you all the time."
