"I'll give this to you first." Gao Ling said before leaving.
She took out the amulet from her chest and put it into the hand of a boy behind her.
"this… "
"I'm going home and won't go out for a few days." Gao Ling said: "Go to the group leader and ask for a new one, and then return this one to me."
"Oh..." The boy nodded. Gao Ling turned around and wanted to go upstairs, but then he looked at the stiff girl over there. He walked back and patted her, "Hey, relax. Everything is over. It's okay now."
“Boss…” the girl finally spoke, her voice a little hoarse.
"Alright, alright." Gao Ling interrupted them, "Everyone is too tired today, let's go back and rest first. When we have recovered, we can sit down and have a good chat."
Those people finally went up to the hotel building one after another. Gao Ling looked around, wrapped her clothes tightly, and ran quickly towards her home. Her home was not far from here, because she found the hotel, which was only across the street.
This time she repeatedly reminded them to wear the amulet on their body, and one of them immediately said that he would definitely wear it and would not take it off even when sleeping.
Gao Ling ran back home, keeping her head down and hiding it in her windbreaker. When she opened the door, her mother was sitting on the sofa, watching TV and knitting. She looked at her and asked in surprise, "Didn't you bring your friends back with you?"
"No, Mom, I..." Gao Ling wanted to say something, but quickly changed her tone, "I'm too tired from playing today... I want to sleep."
"Sleep... Then go to sleep. Isn't it too early?" Her mother glanced at the clock. "Go eat before you go to sleep. I stewed some bones for you. They're in the pot. You can heat them up yourself. There's also rice."
Gao Ling covered his face, hurried into the kitchen, turned on the induction cooker, and heated up the rice while panting.
Five minutes later, she took out her mobile phone and looked at the messages in the group, which was already in an uproar.
It actually all started with a message sent in the group about half an hour ago—We met Yuan at the comic convention.
This message was sent anonymously, and it should be one of the six people.
Gao Ling didn't post it herself. She checked the group chat and almost everyone in the group was shocked. They were frantically asking what had happened and how they were doing now.
Yuan? !!! Comic convention?! Have you seen him in person? What does he look like in person
Oh my god... How are you guys doing now? Did you get back to the hotel safely? Did you really see Yuan or were you just pretending to be there? How did you recognize that it was Yuan
Don't be silly and approach him! That's a real person, don't be fooled by some messed up fan fiction.
Yes, is the boss at your place? What did the boss say? How is she
Gao Ling wiped his face again when he saw the news.
This message was sent while they were still in the toilet.
That is to say, while they were chatting in the toilet, someone secretly took out his mobile phone and anonymously sent this message in the group.
I don’t know what was going on in his mind... Even when he was escaping death, he actually remembered to take out his phone and send a message... But I guess at that time, everyone hadn’t come out of the toilet yet.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be just this one message in the group. It was as if it was strangled afterwards. Until now, only the other people in the group are talking to each other. None of the six people have appeared again.
Later, after everyone came out of the bathroom one after another, they all knew what had happened and stood there in shock. For some people, the degree of shock might be even greater than before.
Until later, one of the boys said, "Since they didn't pursue the matter... that means they didn't intend to do anything to us... right?"
The few people standing in the middle of the toilet suddenly woke up from their dream, looked at each other, then rushed out of the toilet like crazy, hailed two taxis, and quickly slipped back.
Maybe it was because of this that the conversation in the group was suddenly interrupted. No one was willing to continue talking about this topic, even the person who was interested in talking to the group before was suddenly poured a bucket of cold water.
Gao Ling returned to her bedroom, and the people who returned to the hotel also saw the news in the group. Someone began to ask in the group, who said this among us
have no idea…
No, we... We were in that state at that time, and there were still people who wanted to chat in the group? ! !
Who posted this? Come out, how dare you post it but not show your face? Who is this person... And posted it anonymously
Gao Ling scratched her head. It was about to become a big quarrel, and she was too lazy to care about the quarrels in the group.
Anyway, this was the last time she would go out with those people, and she would never go with them again.
This... is indeed very infuriating, but now that they are back at the hotel, they are almost safe, as long as Yuan doesn't come back to cause trouble for them.
… So let them quarrel if they want.
Gao Ling turned around, took out his notebook, and began to write and draw on it.
She kept drawing for a while, and finally, she only drew a few lines.
Gao Ling paused after drawing for a while. She opened the comic she updated and saw the comments below were basically, "Boss! Keep drawing! Draw faster, this is so cool!"
Come on, I want to see Yuan Kuang slap them in the face and beat them all to death!
The boss is more straightforward... But did Ji Qiu really arrange it this way? The more I watch, the more I feel that Yuan is indeed a tragic character...
I don’t know... But Ji Qiu hasn’t finished drawing the later part yet. Although the big brother’s guess seems more reliable, I’m still afraid that you will be slapped in the face.
Gao Ling read the comments one by one, from beginning to end. It was an hour later when he read the last one.
She adjusted the light above her head to make it a little brighter, then took out a notebook next to her and added a few more notes.
There are several other sentences on the notebook, all arranged in order, just like an outline, and written down slowly.
The first one was written by Gao Ling when he first learned the inside story of this comic book. It only had one sentence.
There may have been some hidden reason behind the killing of humans.
The signature below is 8.13.
There are many different signatures below.
There may be big moves after Yuan... I don’t know what the specific moves are, but it is very likely related to the top management.
10.25
…
The chaos among the monsters is most likely due to class conflicts and other currently unknown factors.
2.13
…
The guy in white will have a lot of roles in the later stages. It seems that he was Yuan’s gay friend when he was still Ran Niang.
3.1
…
Gao Ling unscrewed a pen and wrote down a few words from today in the notebook.
Yuan might be injured, and it might be a serious injury. It is very likely that it was an injury that had not healed from before.
3.27
…
There was a huge fight in the group... It lasted from 10 pm to 2 am. Anyway, when Gao Ling woke up the next day and looked through the historical records, she was shocked. She wondered why you guys were so energetic after being tied together and kneeling for half an hour.
But then she thought about it, maybe this is also a kind of emotional catharsis... Hmm... How to say it? A stress response after trauma
But in the end, except for the other five people, no one else cared about the content of the quarrel. They only cared about what would happen to them tonight.
So you really saw Yuan injured? And seriously injured
Uh... I didn't see it, it was Big Brother and Yan Ming who saw it... When we went out, we saw the two of them standing there stupidly, and they told us this later.
But we saw the paper balls in the trash can... There was indeed a huge pile of them, all covered in blood, and it looked pretty scary.
… I actually took a bunch back for my collection.
…
… Shit, are you trying to kill yourself? That’s the blood of a big monster. Monsters have a very sharp sense of smell. What if they follow the smell and find you
It doesn't matter. The man swore, I have been fumigating with mosquito coils all night... I guess there is no smell at all.
… Damn, it turns out that you were the one who lit the mosquito coils in the middle of winter!
I was wondering which idiot it was, lighting mosquito coils in the middle of winter and almost wanting to pick up a knife. Turns out it was you!
The topic in the group went off track for a while, and it took a long time for someone to get back to the main topic, so did the boss have the longest view? The boss is worthy of being the boss... Where is she
I don’t know. I didn’t see her tonight…
I guess he doesn’t want to get involved in the fight between you guys… Look how calm the boss is.
At that time, the boss was washing his face in the pool, and Yuan was washing in the pool next to her, the two of them washed side by side...
… Wow, big guy.
… Fortunately, you are a big shot, otherwise I would be scared to death if it were you.
As they were talking, someone suddenly raised a question.
Yuan... How could I get seriously injured after saving you guys
Some people in the group also started to discuss, yes, this is unreasonable... Moreover, he didn't show up from the beginning to the end, right? How can he be injured? Did you see it wrong
How could I be wrong! I saw the bloody paper ball in the trash can with my own eyes, there is no doubt about it!
That's strange, said someone in the group.
unless…
Unless... he was injured before
It's very possible... Then when was he injured before? Was he injured by a senior executive
Actually... not really. The girl in the group who saw Yuan with Gao Ling suddenly spoke up. Her nickname was Yanming.
I have an idea... But I don't dare to talk nonsense now (looking up at the sky). The slap on the face yesterday hurt so much that I decided to play dead.
After she finished speaking, she sent an emoticon pretending to be dead.
No, just say what you think, don’t hesitate. People in the group shouted.
Yes, just say whatever you want to say and we will analyze it for you.
…
Yuan Yuanyuan pushed open the door, threw the key on the table, then went into the bathroom and took a shower.
The water hit his body and turned red, then slowly flowed down. After a long, long time, it turned transparent again.
As she was rushing forward, Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly stopped.
She looked at the patch of skin on her chest.
Yuan Yuanyuan slowly walked to the mirror and looked at herself in it for a long time.
There was a clear bruise on the piece of skin exposed in the mirror, and the skin was broken, but there was a small white spot under the exposed skin.
What is this thing... Yuan Yuanyuan frowned and gently tore off a large piece of skin.
"hiss."
She looked at the extra half of a palm-sized piece of human skin on her hand.
ah…
Then Yuan Yuanyuan stood half naked in front of the mirror...
Silently weathered away.
