Sergey ran wildly in the forest. The huge strange bear behind him made a terrifying roar. He had never seen such a tall black bear before, and it obviously no longer belonged to the category of creatures. Can you escape by yourself? Sergey didn't know, he had experienced too many such things, every time it was a near-death experience, and being able to get out alive was like a miracle bestowed by the Lord. He doesn't know if the miracle will happen this time, but before the miracle is shattered, he will try his best to save his life.
Elena was his partner, a beautiful Russian girl who, like most people, did the job only for lack of money. Yeah, if it weren't for a lack of money, who would risk their lives for such a dangerous job, who would never know what horrific heresies would come next, and who would be able to successfully seal it up—everything. It is unknown, full of danger, and it also makes people feel more exciting than ever.
Sergey is different from most people. He does this job just because he feels exciting. He sees all kinds of objects that break through scientific common sense, and experiences all kinds of terrifying events. Sergey’s family is rich. , is not short of money, but he is addicted to this job and cannot extricate himself. His work on the brink of death made him feel the meaning of life.
Sergey listened to the roar of the monster behind him, and adrenaline was released in large quantities. He ran with all his strength and did not dare to stop for a moment. When he was exhausted, he gasped and collapsed to the ground. There was no trace of his companions around, and Sergey lay on the ground, laughing. He laughed for a while, then stopped, got up from the ground humming a song, tidied up his appearance, turned around and went back along the same path.
On the way back, he saw a lot of damage to the trees, but there were no corpses and bloodstains as he imagined. It seemed that everyone had escaped. Sergey took out his notebook and made a record as he walked. In the record, he detailed He described the appearance of the monster and the horror of the crowd. He clearly remembered that he seemed to hear a gunshot, but he didn't know which hapless one shot and led the bear.
After finishing the record, Sergey began to plan the next trip. All his equipment was not lost, and the water and food could last for half a month, but some people were not as lucky as him. On the way back, he Saw Elena's equipment. The equipment contains all the supplies, water, food, flint, and a series of items necessary to survive in the forest. It seems that while Yelena was running for her life, she threw these things away in order to reduce the weight.
Sergey made a general inspection and felt that the situation was not good. He had better find the missing Elena as soon as possible, otherwise she had little hope of surviving. But is it possible? In this strange forest, Sergey was really unsure.
According to the regulations, everyone will gather in the direction of the water source after they lose their way in the forest. The same is true for Sergey, but he was still a little worried about his partner, so he turned a few circles in the radius where the team spread out, but unfortunately The thing is, he didn't find any teammates.
This forest is so dense that looking for people in it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Sergey spent two or three days in it, and finally chose to give up and start walking towards the water source.
This forest is obviously abnormal, there are no traces of insects, and the leaves do not seem to wither, the green is shiny, and the day is fine. Every night, the empty silence will make Sergey feel a sense of relief. A subtle discomfort. He was clearly in a wide forest, but he just gave birth to a strange illusion of being locked in a narrow, dark, confined space.
As a recorder, Sergey recorded all his true feelings in a black notebook. He knew that if he dies unfortunately, then this black notebook is a black box-like existence that can help other people and unlock him. Dead Mystery.
This is a fascinating practice, Sergey wrote with relish by the flickering light of the bonfire. When the tip of his pen drew the last full stop on it, there was a rustling sound in his ears. The sound was so harsh in the dead forest, it was hard for Sergey not to notice it. Hearing this sound, Sergey immediately stopped the recording pen, stuffed the notebook into his pocket, and held the shotgun in his backpack.
"Who? Who's there??" Sergey asked warily.
After a sound in the grass, a figure that Sergey didn't expect came out slowly. He widened his eyes and said in amazement, "Irina, is that you? Irina?"
"It's me, Sergey." Irina, embarrassed, came out of the woods crying, wiping her tears and sobbing, "I finally found someone—I thought I was going to die in the forest. "
"Are you all right? I searched for you for two days and couldn't find you." Sergey and Irina have been partners for almost two years. During this period, they have done many missions. He has a very good relationship with this beautiful girl, and he is very friendly. like her. Elena can endure hardship and be frightened, much better than some men who scream when they are frightened.
"I'm fine," Elena said. "I'm always hungry."
Sergey was about to ask her how she had survived these days. After all, there was neither water nor food around, but before he could ask his question, he noticed that Irina was carrying a huge pink backpack behind her...
"Damn it, I don't know which bastard took all the food in my backpack." Irina's next words completely silenced Sergey and no longer dared to speak, she said, "Fortunately I'll take it with me. There's something to eat in the bag, or I'll starve to death here."
Sergey was a little puzzled and didn't dare to say anything. He really didn't move Irina's backpack at the time, although he did not expect Irina to be able to get it back... Sergey muttered a few times in his heart, but he was not here. Doing more tangled things, said: "Come on, I still have a lot of water and biscuits, you can eat some."
"No, I'm full." Irina actually refused Sergey's invitation.
She walked to Sergey's side, sat down, and put the backpack behind her: "I just ate a lot, and I'm not hungry yet."
Sergey said, "Where did you get the food?"
Elena said: "I found it in the forest. There is a lot of food here."
Sergey stared, not sure if Elena was joking, but seeing that she really didn't mean to ask for food, she wondered if she was too careless and missed what she could eat
Elena said, "Where are we going next? No one else has been found."
"Go to the water," Sergey said. "They will definitely gather there. Do you want to rest first?"
"Okay, I'll stay in the middle of the night." Irina yawned, then leaned on her backpack and slept. Sergey looked at her bulging backpack and felt a little strange. It's been a few days. God, why is the backpack still bulging, but he was too embarrassed to ask, and simply turned his attention to other places.
Time passed quickly, and it was three o'clock in the morning. Elena woke up in a daze, rubbed her eyes to let Sergey rest, and kept watch by herself.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Gentleman Sergey said, "I'm not too sleepy."
"No need." But Elena rejected his kindness. She took out her notebook and said that she hadn't recorded today's situation, so let Sergey go to rest.
Hearing the words, Sergey didn't have any more politeness and fell asleep beside the bonfire. There was a vigil at night, so naturally he slept much more soundly than the previous days. It's just that in his sleep, he heard an uncomfortable chewing sound, as if someone was chewing something like raw meat beside him. He was always alert, woke up from his sleep in an instant, opened his eyes carefully, and saw Irina with her head down and her back to him.
Sergey straightened up to see what she was doing, but Yilena heard the movement of getting up. She stopped all of a sudden, turned her head and smiled at Sergey: "You're awake."
Looking at her smile, Sergey felt a chill on his back for some reason. He whispered, "Irina, are you alright? What are you eating?"
"Eat the hare," said Elena. "I caught it in the woods before." She said, holding up a bloody piece of meat, and Sergey felt his stomach churn when he saw the meat. , he hesitated, "You, don't you bake it?"
"Ah! That's right!" Irina suddenly realized, "If you don't tell me, I forgot about the fire."
Sergey stopped talking. He naturally couldn't ignore the obvious abnormality in Elena. He thought for a moment, then tentatively said, "Irina, have you met any other teammates these days?"
"Other teammates?" Elena thought for a while, "No, I didn't meet any other teammates." She grinned and showed a bright smile, but the blood stains on the white teeth made people feel Incomparably creepy, she said, "From beginning to end, I was the only one."
Sergey sighed, and his eyes stayed on Elena, as if judging whether she was lying. Elena said indifferently: "You don't even think about it, if I met other teammates, how could I be so hungry."
Sergey said: "Also..."
"It's dawn, let's continue walking." Irina looked at the morning light rising in the sky, her voice was extraordinarily gentle, she said, "I still prefer the daytime, at least this time, I can catch more hares."
Sergey was silent. He didn't know if the hare that Elena was talking about was a real rabbit, but he had already begun to wonder what Elena was carrying in that pink backpack that looked extraordinarily heavy. Obviously, the current Irina will not answer his question. Sergey licked his lips and spit out two words dryly: "Let's go."
The one-person team turned into two people, which should have made the trip a bit easier, but the abnormality in Elena made it impossible for Sergey to relax. At noon, Elena still refused him to eat. Invite, sit next to him and watch him eat a few cookies.
"Aren't you hungry?" Sergey asked cautiously.
"I'm not hungry." Elena answered so calmly, "I ate a lot last night, and I'm not hungry at all."
Sergey said: "But..."
Elena looked at him: "But what?"
"Forget it, it's nothing." Sergey didn't try to communicate with her again. After several missions, he naturally saw various infected recorders. Some of them survived and some died, but without exception, some incomprehensible abnormalities appeared on their bodies. In strange places, doing strange things, it is difficult for Sergey to say what happened to Elena in front of him. He gripped the pistol that was lying close to him, and became vigilant in his heart.
It's just that Elena is normal most of the time except when she eats, and even occasionally reminds Sergey to take notes.
"Have you encountered anything strange after you separated from the team?" Elena asked curiously.
"No," Sergey said. "I've been alone. I haven't encountered anything else."
"Is that so, that's a pity." Elena smiled. "I know you're doing this job for excitement, but I'm different from you, I'm just for money."
She suddenly mentioned this, making Sergey a little uncomfortable, and he said, "What do you want to say?"
"I actually have a little secret that I haven't dared to tell, for fear that if I tell it, I'll lose my job," said Elena.
"What secret?" Sergey asked.
"I'm pregnant." Irina said surprisingly, she touched her belly and sighed regretfully, "It's a pity that the father of the child is an irresponsible bastard, I need to make more money, and I can't let him live the same life as me. day."
Sergey was stunned, he didn't expect that Elena would suddenly say such a sentence, and suddenly stuttered: "I, you, you are pregnant? Why didn't you say, you are obviously pregnant, how can you do this? A job? What if—"
"What in case?" Elena asked him.
"Forget it, it's nothing." Sergey felt that it was unlucky to express his worries, so he closed his mouth, but his expression was still a little more irritable, "This is not good, we can't continue to move forward." He dug out After studying the map, "In this way, we will return now, although it is a waste of time, but we don't know what else is waiting for us - Elena, for your child, you can't take such a risk."
Elena blinked her eyes, she was very beautiful, with a pair of emerald green eyes like amber, crystal clear, she would definitely give birth to a beautiful child, she said: "No, we are all here, why? You can go back."
"Of course you can go back again." Sergey wondered, "For you who are pregnant, survival is the first priority!! If something happens, what will happen to your child—"
"But when I go back, I have no money." Elena said, "I need money."
"I can lend it to you—no, it's for you." Although Sergey didn't have a girlfriend, he liked children very much. He said, "Your mental state is not normal now. If you continue, something will really happen. Trust me once, okay?"
Elena refused. She refused very decisively, but she didn't even bother to find an excuse. She was stubborn as if there was something waiting for her ahead, and she would rather die than turn back.
Sergey felt despair for the first time. At the same time as despair, an idea came to his mind. He looked at Elena, who was squatting beside him, earnestly taking notes, and made a decision in his heart—he tonight Looking for opportunities to look at Elena's notebook, it is best to find out the reason why she has become like this from her itinerary a few days ago.
Irina didn't know what Sergey was thinking. She was always in a good mood, carrying that huge bag and humming a song all the way. A little cuter than usual.
I don't know how long I walked forward, the sky darkened again.
Sergey stopped early, lit a bonfire, and ate the dry dinner without knowing the taste. Elena still didn't mean to eat, she stared at the fire, the pen in her hand kept moving, and she didn't know what she was writing.
Sergey said: "You should sleep a little longer tonight, your health is important."
Elena said: "No, I'm ready in the middle of the night before going to bed. When it's past three o'clock, you wake me up." She opened her mouth and smiled and said, "At that time, there were the most hares. I like it."
Sergey said: "Okay."
So Elena fell asleep like last night, her breathing quickly became even, and the expression on her face relaxed, and she didn't seem to have any vigilance against Sergey next to her.
The bonfire made a crackling sound, and the flickering flames blurred Sergey's face. He just saw clearly that Elena's black notebook was placed beside it, and it was not stuffed into the backpack. This made him heave a sigh of relief, after all, the huge backpack was carefully pressed by Elena, afraid of being moved. Since it was not stuffed in, it would be much easier to handle. Sergey observed for a while, and after confirming that Elena had fallen asleep, he got up and tiptoed to Elena's side. He saw The black notebook, with the most careful gesture, pulled out the black notebook from Elena's side.
"Huh..." With a long breath, Sergey quickly took out special gloves from his backpack, put them on his hands, and opened the first page of the notebook.
Elena's handwriting is clearly recorded on it. She is a lovely girl. After recording the date, she even drew a small sun next to it.
On the 25th of May, the weather was fine at night.
On the first day we entered here, we saw an empty village. All the villagers in the village were gone. We searched for an afternoon, but found nothing. We were forced to spend one night here. I'm a little nervous, but that's obviously normal - I get nervous every time I do a quest. There are no extra clues today. It seems to be just an ordinary small village with no one suddenly. Oh, if there is no one, it is also abnormal.
On May 26, the morning was fine.
When I woke up in the morning, I learned that there was an accident in the place where I lived last night. Alexei found that the owners of this room had appeared on the TV, and the cutest Chinese with chestnut-colored hair turned on The back cover of the TV, and inside the back cover I found a terrible screaming muddy mud, I felt a strong discomfort, and secretly went to the toilet and vomited for a while. Thinking about it carefully, maybe it's not nausea, but morning sickness, God, my dear child, you have to live up to your expectations. Li Ye, who went out for one night, found a swamp next to the village, we have to go there later - God, he even picked up a gnawed human head, how can there be such a terrible person in the world , Oh, I'm not talking about the human skull, it's Li Ye.
On the 26th of May, the weather was fine in the evening.
The situation was very bad. I was separated from the large group, and after passing through the swamp, we encountered a huge bear. It's hard for me to describe what this bear looks like. If I have to say it, it is a hybrid of a bear and a swamp. On its body, I also see that black liquid that can scream. What is that? Is it human? or something else? Well, I shouldn't care about this now, I got separated from the main force, I lost my supplies backpack when I ran for my life, and in the small bag I carried with me, only this notebook and half a bag of leftover cookies, bless me, hope I Can find my supplies backpack before starving to death.
On the 27th of May, the weather was fine in the evening.
I got lost in the forest, I found nothing, it was silent, not even a bug, I was so thirsty and wanted to drink water.
On May 28, the weather was fine in the evening.
No food, no water, nothing.
On the 29th of May, the weather was fine in the evening.
I'm dying.
On May 30, the night was fine.
I heard the cry of the child in my belly, not just me dying, it's us, we're going to die together, so hungry, so hungry, so hungry, so hungry, so hungry...
When Sergey saw this, a thick layer of white sweat grew on his back. He swallowed and quickly recalled the physiological knowledge of the human body.
How many days can a pregnant woman live without water and food? Elena has been water-free for three days, can she really last until the fourth day? But even if she survived until the fourth day and found her backpack, she found that it was empty... nothing...
Sergey, slowly turned to the next page, he saw the record of May 31st.
The date, the weather, and just the content were written on it, but Sergey's scalp exploded.
I'm so hungry, so hungry, so hungry, so hungry - countless so hungry, densely distributed in every corner of the notebook, through these words, Sergey seems to be able to see a soul that is on the verge of wailing. In order to survive, her consciousness has begun to blur, and her thirst has even caused her hallucinations. She can only continue to use the pen to make the last struggle. Even if she knows in her heart, these struggles are useless.
Sergey took a sip, his hands trembled slightly, and continued to open the next content. He thought that he would see some changes later, but he did not expect that from May 31st until the day Tonight, in Elena's notebook, there are only three words that keep repeating - so hungry.
I'm so hungry. Tonight, sitting by the campfire, she wrote the same thing with a smile—
Sergey saw the record of the last day, he slowly closed the notebook, turned his head, and looked at Elena beside him.
She was still asleep, with a sweet and serene sleeping face, as if she had entered a beautiful dream. But the notebook in Sergey's hand seemed like her still wailing soul. Those writings, like a ghost, made Sergey's blood gradually cool.
What the hell happened to Elena? Is she still alive? Or, is the person in front of you still Elena? Countless thoughts came out of Sergey's mind, but he couldn't get an answer.
The bonfire was crackling again, as if this was the only sound left in the whole world. There were some strange whispers in the ears of Sergey, who was completely cold. He shook his head vigorously, trying to get himself out of here. out of a strange state. He carefully placed the black notebook again beside Irina, then sat back by the bonfire and fell silent for a long time.
I don't know how long, the sleeping Elena woke up.
