Ten Days End

Just as Xiao Ran was about to scream, Dr. Zhao immediately covered her mouth from behind.

The scream turned into a muffled groan, suppressed in the throat.

Dr. Zhao saw that the three people who had just gone out were silent, and curiously followed them out to see, but saw such a weird scene, and almost lost his soul.

None of the four people dared to make a sound, and quietly looked at the "person" in front of them who looked like a cricket.

He was seen swinging his hind legs quickly like a bug, and the whole person kept changing directions, as if looking for something, and from time to time he raised the two blood holes on his face to look around.

His neck twisted not like a human, but as fast as an insect, and the twisting amplitude was also terrifying.

A few seconds later, the "person" suddenly jumped high and jumped towards the wall of the convenience store.

Qi Xia hurriedly raised the torch to illuminate, trying to follow the other party's figure. After all, in this dark environment, the most taboo is to lose the whereabouts of the target.

But the moment the torch was raised, even with Qi Xia's mental strength, his legs almost weakened and he sat on the ground.

The walls illuminated by the fire were densely crawling with "people".

There were at least a dozen of them, and they were all moving quickly on the wall.

As the fire shone, they seemed to sense something and crawled into the darkness again.

They looked like crickets, cockroaches, and spiders.

In short, they were not like people.

Qi Xia only felt that all the hairs on his body slowly stood upside down.

On the way to the convenience store with Ringo in the dark, he had heard the sound of insects coming one after another.

The sound of insects was sometimes far away, and sometimes very close.

It turned out that they were not insects... but "people" one by one.

When he thought about the ground beside him and Ringo as they were moving forward, and the wall not far away was full of these things...

This feeling can't even be described as "fear".

Qi Xia shed a cold sweat, slowly turned around, and waved at the few people.

Everyone understood what he meant and slowly retreated.

Qi Xia held a torch, stared at the "person" on the wall, and then retreated step by step into the room with the three people behind him.

They did not dare to make a sound the whole time, and their movements were extremely slow.

These people seemed to have their eyes dug out, and they should only be able to find their position by sound. Fortunately, everyone knew that saving their lives was important, so no one made a sound.

After closing the door, Qi Xia took a wooden board from the side and propped it behind the door. Everyone continued to retreat, all the way to the corner of the wall.

This cold and mottled wall gave everyone a sense of security.

"What on earth is that..." Xiao Ran asked tremblingly.

"It's a human..." Doctor Zhao shook his head immediately after he finished speaking, "No... Human skeletons can't make that kind of movement, they can only be bugs..."

Qi Xia took a deep breath and said, "I also heard the rustling sound last night, which means these things didn't appear today, but have always been there."

He turned around and said to Ringo with a serious face, "We are so lucky that we didn't step on these things along the way..."

Ringo also nodded in shock, looking very scared.

The four people fell into silence immediately.

Before seeing this terrible scene, perhaps everyone could still sleep well at night.

But at this time, everyone dared not close their eyes, they could only lean against the wall and stare at the door, guarding against those things breaking in at any time.

The night without sleepiness and sound was particularly long.

Everyone stood by the wall for half a night, and now their waists and legs are sore.

They gradually discovered a problem.

Those "bugs" outside the door seemed to be just bugs.

They didn't want to break into this brightly lit place at all.

Qi Xia was using the rules here to explain the phenomenon here.

No matter how weird they looked, even if their eyes were always bleeding, they were just bugs.

If "bugs" and "shop assistants" were the same thing, they would definitely play their roles seriously.

In this way, the bugs outside the door would not be too dangerous. Even if they would actively attack humans, they would not necessarily slam the door in groups.

Thinking of this, Qi Xia sat down slowly and moved his sore limbs.

Seeing someone taking the lead, the other three also sat down, but they were still nervous.

"Qi Xia...what should we do?" Ringo asked.

Qi Xia touched his chin and said, "Let's sleep."

"Sleep?"

"Sleep for a while, save your energy." Qi Xia found a clean wooden board and laid it next to Ringo. "We will set out after dawn to find Officer Li."

"But the doorThose outside..."

"Don't worry." Qi Xia said nonchalantly, "They won't come in. As long as we don't go out, there will be no danger for the time being."

Ling Qin nodded cautiously like a child, and then lay down.

And Qi Xia also came to the corner, found a clean wooden board to cover the pot, and sat on the board to press the pot.

Xiao Ran and Dr. Zhao looked at each other, and then looked at Qi Xia and Ling Qin.

How could they sleep?

Even if he could completely ignore the insects outside the door, Xiao Ran always felt that Qi Xia was a dangerous person.

In the story told at the beginning, he was a How could a swindler who defrauded two million be a good person?

If I sleep with him, will I die inexplicably again in the early morning of the next day?

Qi Xia didn't care about Xiao Ran and Dr. Zhao's expressions at all, but leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.

For him, even if these two people couldn't sleep all night, it had nothing to do with him.

Lying on the wooden board, Ringo looked at Qi Xia sitting in the corner, and felt a little sorry, so he moved to the side and said, "Qi Xia, this board is big enough, you can lie on it too."

Qi Xia raised his eyelids and said, "No, I'm used to sleeping sitting down."

"Sleeping sitting down?" Ringo thought for a moment, stood up, moved the board to Qi Xia's side, and then lay down again, and continued, "Then you can sleep sitting down next to me. "

Qi Xia did not refuse. Compared with Xiao Ran and Dr. Zhao, Ringo left a good impression on him.

Lying on the wooden board, Ringo looked at Qi Xia with a little curiosity and asked, "Why are you used to sleeping while sitting?"

Qi Xia raised his eyebrows after hearing this, and then thought about this question seriously: "Because sleeping while sitting will not let me enter the state of "relaxation", and my brain can start working at any time."

Ringo nodded, but seemed to think of something else: "Have you always slept while sitting?"

"Yes."

"It has been like this for many years?"

Qi Xia felt that Ringo was very strange, so he turned his head to look at her: "Is this question important?"

Ringo swallowed his saliva, sorted out his words, and finally asked, "But you have a wife... Even if you two live together, do you sleep while sitting every night?"
