Yuan Yuanyuan's steps were very hurried.
She lowered her head and walked into an alley. Her heart was lifted when she heard the footsteps coming not far away behind her.
Two hours had passed since I returned from the supermarket, and it was now completely dark.
However, Yuan Yuanyuan still did not return home.
…The voice behind her was following her closely, and she didn’t dare to leave.
Yuan Yuanyuan gritted her teeth, looked at the time, and continued walking forward with her head down, but she had already taken out her knife in her hand.
Now she seems to be caught in a vicious circle.
Two hours ago, when Yuan Yuanyuan came out of the supermarket, she headed straight for home. She knew that she was in a dangerous situation, so she deliberately chose to walk through some remote places. However, even so, someone soon spotted her.
After all, there are many monsters in this area, and she is not the only one who chooses to live here.
Yuan Yuanyuan thought she had been careful enough, but there were too many sharp-eyed monsters.
She forcefully suppressed her demonic aura and tried hard to disguise herself as an ordinary person. Because she hid it quite well, a few monsters only stared at her for a while and then slowly left.
Yuan Yuanyuan had been paying attention to what was behind her, and she was relieved when she saw those people leave. However, even so, there were still a few people who were unwilling to give up and lingered behind her, not too far away.
She couldn't walk straight home like this because it was dangerous.
She was afraid that the people hanging behind her would follow her back home.
With this thought in mind, Yuan Yuanyuan circled around here for two hours. She tried to shake off the monster behind her, but the monster not only failed to get rid of her, but got closer and closer.
We can’t drag on like this... Yuan Yuanyuan glanced at the familiar alley not far away.
Never mind fuck.
At this point, she really had no other choice but to use the dumbest trick.
--Rush back to her home first. According to what "Ji Qiu" said, she should be able to change back soon. Even if those people chase her, she will insist that she knows nothing. After all, they are two completely different monsters and there is no evidence.
… Well, she will face various doubts and questions later.
That’s why Yuan Yuanyuan said this was the dumbest move.
Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly ran quickly. The monster who had been following her obviously didn't expect that she had such a trick. After a moment of hesitation, he reacted and followed her.
Yuan Yuanyuan ran as fast as she could and soon arrived downstairs of her house. Feeling like she was finally saved, she was about to climb in through the window, but unexpectedly she froze.
She stood in front of the window, her hands and feet cold.
A kind of despair that I had never experienced before filled my heart.
A beautiful symbol appeared on the window. Purple patterns intertwined to form a slightly strange totem. On the clean glass, it looked like a beautiful window grille.
…
This is an identity symbol, something that Yuanyuan can only get in exchange for by paying rent to Sister Xue every month.
This thing can be compared to the doorbell of the monster world. Anyway, it is something like this. With this, as long as a strange monster wants to enter her home, this standard will be revealed.
Damn, I'm not a stranger! I just changed my face!
Yuan Yuanyuan was so angry that she almost raised her middle finger to her own window...
The shadow behind him was getting closer and closer. He realized that the man in front of him was most likely the "man in black" that had been rumored for some time, so he moved faster.
Three minutes later, a dark shadow suddenly passed in front of Yuan Yuanyuan's residential area. He turned around several times and finally stopped in front of a building gate.
There are very few monsters in this community, and Yuan Yuanyuan is one of the residents.
The black shadow walked towards the place where the most demonic energy remained in the air, and finally slowly came to the door of Yuan Yuanyuan's house.
He was about to push the door, but suddenly he saw a purple pattern appear on the door.
After a pause, he put his hand down.
…
Yuan Yuanyuan lay quietly on her side in a strange place.
She had a blank expression, not a single emotion showing on her face, and her whole body was emitting a chill from the inside out.
She felt that she was having difficulty breathing, which was not good for her because she had been holding her demonic energy for quite some time and now she was almost unable to hold on any longer.
… The principle of holding back the breath is different from holding back a fart, but some aspects are the same, that is, once you can’t breathe, you are likely to be exposed.
Yuan Yuanyuan pulled back the quilt covering her head and wanted to stick her head out to breathe, but was suddenly pressed down hard by a hand.
That was not the end. After the owner of the hand pressed her down, he was obviously afraid that she would stick her head out again, so he took out another thick blanket from somewhere and covered Yuan Yuanyuan with it again...
Yuan Yuanyuan felt that the weight on her body was getting heavier and heavier. There were constant noises outside, clanging and banging. It seemed that in the end, it was not just the quilt that was pressing on her.
Half an hour later, she took a deep breath and prepared to stick her head out again, but the people outside tried to push her back. Yuan Yuanyuan had no choice but to say, "It's okay, the person is gone."
… The atmosphere outside was quiet. Yuan Yuanyuan finally got out of the mess. As she stood up, a bunch of things fell off her.
Yuan Yuanyuan glanced at it out of the corner of her eye and saw a quilt, clothes, and books.
Well, if she was reading correctly, there was even a pillow doll and tickler in there…
Cough cough.
She looked face to face at the two girls in front of her, one was Xiaoying and the other was Xiaoying's classmate.
At this moment, the two of them watched Yuan Yuanyuan slowly climbing up from the bottom of the "hill", and the expressions on their faces were so wonderful.
…
Just when the shadow was about to catch up, Yuan Yuanyuan was still at a loss in front of her window. Unexpectedly, the window next to her was suddenly pushed open. Xiaoying, who came to open the window, tilted her head and saw Yuan Yuanyuan squatting on the balcony...
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Xiaoying's expression became more and more upset. Yuan Yuanyuan said at this critical moment: "Go back, someone is chasing me."
… However, the ending was unexpected. Yuan Yuanyuan was dragged into the house by Xiaoying, hidden in the bedroom, and a bunch of things were pressed on her body.
Yuan Yuanyuan thought about when she was in junior high school, if she met a strange man entering the house, and this man seemed to have an unknown origin... No, it’s not that she had an unknown origin. Her current title is “a magical creature that looks like a monster.”
No one in the small bedroom said anything. Suddenly, Xiaoying's mother's voice came from outside, "Xiaoying? What are you and Li Xin doing in the room?"
"Nothing, nothing." Xiaoying turned around and shouted outside, "Mom, is there anything to eat at home? I didn't have enough to eat at night."
"Yes, go get it yourself." Xiaoying's mother shouted again from outside, and then stopped talking.
Li Xin looked at Yuan Yuanyuan for a long while, then stretched out a finger, poked Xiaoying next to him and said, "He is... that who?"
"Um."
Yuan Yuanyuan lowered her head and wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere. She felt that in the current situation, the two girls opposite would probably be quite panicked.
Before she could say anything, the girl opposite who had just been called "Li Xin" suddenly whispered to Xiaoying: "Are you crazy? Are you going to hide him here?"
"What else can we do if we don't hide here?" Xiaoying also yelled at Li Xin in a low voice, "Someone is chasing him."
"Oh my god..." Li Xin pulled Xiaoying over and whispered in her ear, "This is a monster! Monster! Don't think that he saved you. He might have killed someone! He might even be a dangerous person! You're asking for death. Where are your mom and dad?"
Yuan Yuanyuan looked at the two people whispering to each other and thought that they probably didn't know that monsters have excellent hearing.
She turned her head away a little embarrassedly, as if she didn't hear the quarrel between the two people, and looked up at the surrounding environment.
It’s a very cozy house, mostly pink. Although the layout is the same, it’s much better than her room.
There was no way, she had no money, and the only valuable thing in the bedroom was a small yellow lamp.
The two people in front of her were still arguing, but Yuan Yuanyuan inexplicably felt like laughing. These two people had greeted her in the morning, but now they started arguing, and the lines sounded... quite like something out of a melodrama.
"Why don't you use your brain! Your parents are so old, why do you want to involve them in this kind of thing?"
"Ugh... What should I do then?"
"You two are not the same kind of people at all. And if you drag him into the house, it's easy for something to go wrong. What if he keeps hiding in your house in the future?"
Yuan Yuanyuan sat under the quilt, and actually felt like watching a show, all she needed was a handful of melon seeds...
Well, if she continues to be so poor, she will definitely not be able to pay the internet fee next month. Why not watch a ready-made TV series
And the reflection is so real, no matter how much money you spend, you can't achieve this effect.
"Then, what should we do?" Xiaoying looked like she was about to cry. Li Xin slapped her on the thigh and said, "Don't talk. Let me handle this."
She suddenly walked in front of Yuan Yuanyuan and faced her. Yuan Yuanyuan had just been looking at the chandelier above her head, but now she turned her head.
"Are you injured anywhere?" Li Xin said, "Do you want to eat something? What do you want to eat?"
Yuan Yuanyuan looked at Li Xin.
Li Xin's expression was calm, but there was a hint of nervousness that he tried hard to hide.
Yuan Yuanyuan saw her own shadow in her black eyes.
A very slender man with an expressionless face, black hair and black eyes.
To be honest, this face looks very good... or to use a slightly strange word, "like it came out of a comic book."
But Yuan Yuanyuan put herself in the other person's shoes and thought about it. If she had encountered such a thing when she was in high school, no matter how handsome the man was, she would have been scared to death.
…
She shook her head, not wanting to tease them anymore, and was about to get up and leave, but Xiaoying behind her suddenly stood up and disappeared.
Li Xin had been staring at the strange man in front of him nervously. Suddenly, he saw Xiaoying leave and was startled. Before he could call for help, he saw Xiaoying come back.
Xiaoying was holding a large, cold bag in her hands, and she stuffed it into Yuan Yuanyuan's hands.
Her face was full of tears. She didn't know if she was scared by Li Xin's words just now, or what.
"Let's go... Let's go quickly, don't come back..." Xiaoying stuffed the bag into Yuan Yuanyuan's hand, and then pushed Yuan Yuanyuan out, "Let's go quickly!"
… Yuan Yuanyuan was confused.
"They are very dangerous, don't get close to them." Xiaoying hugged Yuan Yuanyuan's waist and pushed her out. "Don't believe what they say, and don't save them. We are all bad."
"... Wait a minute, Xiaoying, calm down." Li Xin said softly, "... Let's take it slow."
Xiaoying didn't reply to Li Xin's words. Seeing that Yuan Yuanyuan was still not leaving, she grabbed the tickler that had just been pressed on Yuan Yuanyuan and slapped her on the back. "Hurry up! Find a place to hide and don't show up. This is not fun. Go!"
It’s not that Yuan Yuanyuan didn’t want to leave... She just didn’t follow Xiaoying’s train of thought.
She was kicked out in a daze, broke the monster doorbell and went home in a daze, sat on the sofa in a daze, and still hadn't come to her senses.
Her appearance had changed back to her own face, from that man's face, but she still felt her mind was confused. Overall, everything that happened today was very confusing.
She sat on the sofa for a long time. Suddenly, she remembered something and opened the plastic bag that Xiaoying had just given her. A lot of the ice cubes in it were about to melt.
Icy cold and red.
It seems to be... spare ribs.
A pound of spare ribs costs twenty yuan... so many should probably cost about a hundred yuan.
Sitting on the sofa, Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly came back to her senses. She looked at the pork in her arms, was silent for three seconds, put away the plastic bag, and then put it in the refrigerator.
Actually... it's not that bad.
