The Midnight Owl

When the taxi arrived, it was already completely dark.

Xu Wang rented an old community, the buildings are all low-rise, only stairs, no elevator.

Qian Ai and Kuang Jinxin are familiar with this place, and only Chi Yingxue is here for the first time. All three partners entered the building. He was still standing in the dim street lamp, looking up at the whole building, thinking if he would stay in Beijing tomorrow, maybe he should propose to open a room in the hotel.

He doesn't mind where the place of residence is broken, but this kind of place does not have much space at first glance, and it is inevitable that people crowd out the place where people live, making him instinctively reject.

Today, there is no drama, mentioning it is not social, he still understands the reason.

With a helpless sigh, Chi Yingxue entered the door.

The sensor light in the corridor seems to have just been changed, with dazzling and bright lights that are very inconsistent with the style of the entire building. As soon as he entered the building, Chi Yingxue was shaken uncomfortably. He lowered his eyes, bowed his head as far as possible, and placed all his sight On the stairs and your own feet.

It can be seen for a long time, and the first-level stairs are also dazzling.

When he walked to the second floor halfway, Chi Yingxue felt extremely dizzy. He grabbed the handrail of the staircase, taking care of the heavy dust on it, and firmly grasped it, so as to stabilize the slightly swaying body.

Kang Jinxin, who walked in front, seemed to feel wrong. Looking back, he saw Chi Yingxue standing under a few steps, his brow furrowed, his expression painful, his hand on the railing, and his joints whitened.

"Chi Yingxue?" Kuang Jinxin tentatively called.

The other party seemed not to hear at all.

He simply went down a few steps and came directly to Chi Yingxue, raising his hand and gently touching his arm: "You're okay ..."

"Don't touch me!" Chi Yingxue didn't give him a chance to finish his speech. While roaring, he pushed people hard.

At this time, he had no control at all, and Kuang Jin fell directly backward!

Fortunately, Qian Ai's eyes were fast, and he caught people before Kang Jinxin's entire back knocked on the steps, but the fire had already risen, and the backhand also pushed Chi Yingxue: "What the **** are you crazy!"

Qian Ai was angry at scolding, but anyway he counted his teammates. His push didn't really work hard, and the warning meant more.

But Chi Yingxue fell like that.

Although the steps were not high, it was still "bang", and it fell solidly under the steps, and the corners on the first and second floors were flat.

Qian Ai looked at Chi Yingxue lying on the ground, and then looked at his hands, frightened.

This **** is not Qigong! ! !

The first person who responded was Xu Wang. He ran over in three and two steps and lifted the person to check it by the corridor lights. Fortunately, there was no trauma, but the person was unconscious, and he did n’t know what to mutter.

Kang Jinxin and Qian Ai also rushed over, and the three joined forces to bring Chi Yingxue into Xu Wang's house.

Unexpectedly, just putting the person on the bed in Xu Wang's bedroom, Chi Yingxue suddenly opened his eyes, and then a carp got out of bed, standing there searching the house.

Qian Ai swallowed, pulled his own captain in the left hand, and Jin Xin in the right hand, to prevent the other party from retaliating, and he was weak.

Chi Yingxue didn't look at him, but quickly locked Xu Wang's wardrobe, strode the meteor over, opened the door, and dig out the things inside, the same, and the same. It's really not distressing for his clothes.

Xu Wang looked silly. For the first time, he was beaten up in front of him.

Kuang Jin and Qian Ai understood.

After all, they had seen it once while waiting for mushroom soup in Konina ’s hut, but that time, Konina ’s wardrobe was empty.

"Captain, don't worry, he will stabilize in a closed dark space for a while." Kang Jinxin used his own experience to give his captain a relief.

Xu Wang guessed that it should be related to the instability of dual personality, but what surprised him more was the calmness of his teammates: "Have you seen it?"

Kuang Jinxin nodded: "On 6/23, you and Brother Sheng went to the village to find clues. We waited in the Kina hut. He had this situation once."

"boom--"

Chi Yingxue got into the closet that had been hollowed out and closed the cabinet door from inside.

Xu Wang watched his back froze for a while, knowing that his teammates had a double personality, and the impact was very different from seeing with his own eyes.

"Yes ... Yang wants to change it?"

"To be precise," Qian Ai said rigorously, "it's one who wants to transform, one who doesn't want to transform, one that is coming out, and one that guards against death."

After a few minutes, nothing remained in the cabinet.

The whole bedroom also calmed down, but there were three worried hearts hidden under the silence.

The three didn't dare to leave, they all sat beside the bed, six eyes fixed on the closet, thinking consciously or unconsciously, what to do if they waited for a strange teammate who made a facelift.

Time passed by one minute and one second, the wardrobe was still silent, people could not help wondering if Chi Yingxue was asleep in it.

But no movement, always better than God's nagging, the latter really makes the scalp numb.

The tight strings of the three of them followed this long-lasting calmness and relaxed slightly.

Qian Ai lowered his head, looking at the hand he had just pushed Chi Yingxue, and scolded it with regret in his heart. Do you say you owe it, are you impulsive, do you not act recklessly without considering the consequences? That's your teammate. Even if you have a bad personality, a bad temper, and somehow pushed the situation, you can't change to a safe, gentle and non-stimulating way of education?

This push is refreshing, almost one dead two lives!

Xu Wang looked at the messy clothes before he remembered that the secret box was still in the closet. He thought about it all the way, and the first thing he had to do was to turn over the secret box, but now he couldn't take it anymore. He just hoped that Chi Yingxue would be safe and stable.

Half an hour later, Qian Ai began to doze off, taking a look at the location.

An hour later, Xu Wang's eyelids also began to fight. From last night to now, they haven't closed their eyes, they can still hold on, but once they relax, they can hardly resist fatigue.

An hour and a half later, the two of them fell asleep at the head and end of the bed, either lying or leaning.

In the closet.

The darkness like the abyss engulfed Chi Yingxue, or he and the darkness had become one.

If there is a see-through lamp at this time, it will be visible. He is scratching his arm with the key. When there is no blood, he will come again and repeat this action mechanically and firmly until the key is serrated Ripped together.

The knife he carried with him was stopped at the airport when he went through security.

Otherwise, the efficiency of his "pain therapy" will be higher.

He stared at his arm as if his eyes had adjusted to the darkness, and he could see this **** flesh. And it made him happy. The glory in his eyes was more than he was in battle.

There was no sound outside the closet, only breathing asleep evenly, but he didn't know about it.

He has completely entered his own world. In the long period of extreme depression, the whole person trembles slightly, and he can't hold back.

The beautiful thin lips lightly open, but the words spit out, but it is gloomy.

"Don't you want to come out, come out, I didn't stop you," he whispered almost, unprecedented tenderness, unprecedented cruelty, "it's dark, stuffy, and painful outside, you must like ..."

His voice was trembling.

But it's not nervousness, fear, hatred and anger, it's joy, a kind of controlling situation that has the absolute upper hand and is extremely joyful.

Across a cabinet.

Kang Jinxin, who was sitting between two sleeping people, looked quietly at the closet and listened clearly to every word, every sentence, and his eyes clear.

"Oh, it doesn't seem to hurt enough ..."

"……roll……"

"I'm gone, who protects you ..."

"... Go away ..."

"You wouldn't say anything else? Your brother still knows that one way will not kill me, so change to the second one ..."

"..."

--Boom!

Suddenly there was a knocking sound inside the cabinet. This sound was not loud, but it seemed to ignite a fuze.

Then a series of "DongDongDong" sounded at a rapid speed, fast and dense, and louder than louder, louder than louder, just like someone inside was hitting his head against the wall of the cabinet in desperation!

In the silent bedroom, it seemed that he was suddenly thrown into a gun battle. Xu Wang and Qian Ai woke up instantly, and had not yet figured out what was going on. The door of the cabinet was banged by Chi Yingxue.

He rushed out of it at a speed so unclear that he stood in the bright light of the bedroom, bent over to support his knees, and gasped with a gulp, like a drowner who had just been rescued ashore.

The tip of the hair soaked in sweat was attached to the delicate cheeks, making his skin whiter.

His eyelashes were also slightly wet with sweat, and in the light of the room, there was a faint shadow under his eyes, hiding all his emotions in the depths.

The three little friends, unmoving and silent, waited for him to recover with a trace of anxiety and uncertainty.

After a while, his breath finally eased, still supporting his knees, his head turned slightly to the bed, and he smiled, with a slight overdraft in his voice, but his eyes were bright as stars: "I worry you, I'm fine. "

Qian Ai and Xu Wang both relieved, but only half.

The teammate is still the polite and polite Chi Yingxue who has been around for many days. This is not a bad result. It is always easier to continue to get acquainted than to get rid of the rusty; the price of the physical battle is that the forehead hits the red. The blood stains on the inside of the left arm are staggered. Some blood from a slightly deep wound has already flowed down. The blood beads are hanging on the fingertips, and those that can't be dropped, there is a dazzling light under the lamp.

"Don't you feel pain?" Qian Ai vomited on her mouth, but she felt pain for Chi Yingxue. He used to think that he was the most vulnerable baby on the team. Until these two days with the new teammate, he suddenly felt that his life was full of love and sunshine.

When the airport was divided, Wu Sheng insisted on leaving the first-aid kit, because he was going to a large customer in Hebei at night, and then entered the "owl" at midnight, not 1/23 but the endless sea. Although Xu Wang has repeatedly stated that the risk factor of 1/23 is zero, Wu Sheng still requires that the medical kit be left in place of himself to take care of the entire team.

How can I know that I haven't waited for the "owl" to use the first aid kit.

Xu Wang had to admire the "high vision" of his military division.

In the living room, Chi Yingxue skillfully bandaged himself, and the three partners supervised the whole process.

Xu Wang accidentally swept the edge of the gauze exposed at his ankle, and later realized that this partner was injured in the battle. The captain ’s soul was suddenly possessed, and the mouth of the bitter mouth said: "You have no other way. … Stable? ”I could n’t find a word that was too appropriate. It was strange to say“ stop another one of you ”. In the end, I chose the ambiguous two words,“ You were injured when you crossed the border, and you hurt yourself when you came back to reality. You can resist the pain, but you can't eat it. "

"Another way ..." Chi Yingxue bowed her gauze, pondered gently, and when everything was done, she raised her head and blinked at Xu Wang with a smile, "You won't want to know."

Xu Wang fell silent.

In the depths of his eyes, he saw endless pain and darkness.

The night was deep, and it was two and a half hours before the owl opened again.

Xu Wang asked the three partners to squint in the living room and hide back to the bedroom.

Fortunately, the partners did not ask for a "shared bedroom", otherwise he did not know what reason to use to push people out.

It cannot be said that I need a privacy space to decipher the secrets of ten years ago.

Closing the door, he took a deep breath and slowly exhaled before approaching the closet.

The inside of the open cabinet door was stained with blood marks, which should have been touched when Chi Yingxue pushed the door.

Xu Wang bent over and leaned into the upper body, reached for a long time, and finally touched the box.

Still.

Cautiously curled up in the deepest part of the cabinet, as if this section does not know whether it is considered emotional, emotional.

The heart beat so badly that Xu Wang tried it a few times before taking out the box successfully.

He held it in his hand, turned around and walked back to the bed, taking every step very carefully, like holding a treasure that would shatter if he didn't pay attention.

Finally, the box was placed on a soft bed.

Open the cover, take the letter, unfold the five sheets of paper, spread them out, put them side by side neatly, the rules are like a square matrix.

He first piled the first and second letter paper together, pinched it, and looked into the light, just like Wu Sheng did when he deciphered the love letter password in the 6/23 castle.

Unconscious breath holding.

In the whole world, it seems that there are only two stationery stacked together.

Every letter of Wu Sheng is not long, half a page more, a third page less, few words, greetings that are painless and itchy.

Xu Wang read every word seriously. After a long time, his eyes almost burned through the letter.

The only thing that can be stacked on two pieces of stationery is a period and a comma.

Xu Wang didn't believe in evil, and changed two more. This time, even the punctuation marks that could overlap were gone.

Five pieces of stationery were selected for two, a total of ten permutations and combinations. Xu Wang tried it all over. A full stop, a comma, and two "-"-this is all harvested.

Looking forward to spending time in disappointment, Xu Wang gave up completely.

He lay down wearily, covering his sore eyes with his arms, not only hurting, but also heating up faintly.

When you are hopeful, you can imagine 10,000 possibilities. When hope is broken, you discover that what supports these imaginations may be a vague "cue" that can't even be proved by evidence.

Wu Sheng used the love letter superposition method to decipher the password, must he also used the same method?

But when the head is not so hot, you can realize how much this so-called "inference" takes for granted.

...

Outside the bedroom, the three little friends didn't sleep anymore.

Qian Ai was hungry, and somehow found a pack of instant noodles and went to the kitchen to cook.

In the living room, Kuang Jinxin was sitting on the corner of the sofa, opposite the coffee table, and Chi Yingxue was sitting on the chair.

He was not sitting upright, leaning against the back of the chair, looking at Kang Jinxin in a leisurely manner, with a lazy gaze, with a little playfulness.

Kuang Jinxin is not afraid of him watching, to be precise, he is also watching him. People who look at him, look at his look, look at his eyes.

"Aren't you sleepy." Chi Yingxue asked lightly, the expression was calm and stretched, just without a smile.

Kuang Jinxin said: "Not sleepy."

Chi Yingxue tilted his head: "Afraid of me doing bad things?"

He didn't seem to care about the answer, he just talked casually and asked casually.

But Jin Xin answered seriously: "I'm afraid you have been cheating."

Chi Yingxue was stunned, his eyes flashed quickly, and he had n’t waited for Jin Xin to see clearly. He suddenly stood up, stepped across the coffee table, pressed the sofa arm with one hand, and pressed the sofa back with one hand, trapping Kuang Jinxin Between your arms.

"Xiao Sijin," Chi Yingxue leaned down, breathing on the other person's face, and sighed, "You are really unlovable."

Kuang Jinxin wanted to speak, but the next second, he was caught in person.

Chi Yingxue's lips are soft and cool, like mints.

He was stupid there, his eyes widened, and he didn't know how to react for a moment.

Falling here in Chi Yingxue is just being obedient, so obedient, he can't help but want to bully him.

Chi Yingxue pressed all the weight down, deepened the kiss, and kissed it arbitrarily, which was longer than the original plan before it ended.

At the end, he found out that Kuang Jinxin was watching him, his eyes blinking from beginning to end, but his initial daze was transformed into calm and relief. The only thing that remained constant was the clarity and brightness that seemed eternal.

Chi Yingxue was puzzled, but he suppressed it, and still happily announced according to the original idea: "The stamp is over. From now on, you are mine."

Kuang Jinxin finally had the opportunity to speak, and his voice was a little dumb: "Are you trying to be angry with him?"

Chi Yingxue froze.

"Because he said it was him who joined the team, and his teammates were also him." Kuang Jinxin said, "You all heard it, right?"

The last bit of disguised pleasure on Chi Yingxue's face also disappeared.

He looked at Kuang Jinxin quietly. The whole person suddenly showed a kind of desertion, but what he said was like a child: "He took the key and stroked me."

Kuang Jinxin stared at his blue and red forehead: "You have let him hit the cabinet."

"He also shut me in the closet," Chi Yingxue said very slowly, his voice sinking a little, "I hate the darkest closed place most."

Kuang Jinxin raised his hand and touched his head, like a kindergarten teacher caring for children: "Buy a portable flashlight next time."

Chi Yingxue frowned, got rid of the hand above his head, stood up straight, and glanced down at the guy on the sofa. For a long time, he confirmed that his original feeling had not changed: "You are still the same as it was on 3/23."

With such obvious disgust, Kuang Jinxin seldom met, instead of feeling angry, only felt fresh.

He is not afraid that Chi Yingxue hates him, anyway, this new teammate, no matter which personality, does not seem to really be able to count on anyone.

"You are different from the time of 3/23," Kuang Jinxin looked up, the lights reflected his entire personality is particularly vivid and energetic, "At that time you were our opponent, now you are our teammate."

A strange rushed through Chi Yingxue's heart, he didn't know what it was.

"So you don't have to pretend to be him. When we added him, we added you together," Kang Jinxin stood up and encouraged, "Don't worry, I will take you to the captain, you are not Chi Yingxue, It ’s a king. "

Chi Yingxue stood still.

"I am Chi Yingxue, he is the king."

Kuang Jinxin froze, looked at him for a while, then nodded blankly: "Oh."

"Oh?" Chi Yingxue raised her eyebrows, with dark clouds brewing in her eyes.

Kuang Jinxin was a bit embarrassed, trying to coax: "The name is not important, it is enough to distinguish the two of you."

Chi Yingxue Ding looked at him: "The name is very important."

Kuang Jinxin sighed and said honestly: "He said he was Chi Yingxue and his personality, and you said you were, and neither of you can produce evidence. Who should I believe?"

Chi Yingxue takes it for granted: "I."

Kuang Jinxin thought about it seriously: "Yes, trust you when you are here."

Chi Yingxue: "..."

Kuang Jinxin is not sure who the two of them are masters, but the last one, Chi Yingxue, said, "This Chi Yingxue can hear and perceive things outside."

Perhaps even Chi Yingxue didn't realize that when he was talking to himself, he was far from the stranger of the last time, and even brought relaxation and familiarity for a long time.

Kuang Jinxin still has a stomach problem, and is still curious why he jumped on his own in the ferris wheel.

But coming to Japan.

"When did you see that I was mine?" Chi Yingxue asked suddenly before leaving for the bedroom.

Kuang Jinxin said: "You come out of the closet, I will know."

Chi Yingxue looked at him lightly, not very convinced.

Kuang Jinxin said: "His face is hot, his eyes are cold, your face is cold, his eyes are hot."

When Qian Ai brought the cooking noodles out of the kitchen, he saw Kuang Jinxin and Chi Yingxue knocking on the bedroom door.

"What are you doing?" He asked inexplicably.

Chi Yingxue said nothing.

Kuang Jinxin said to him: "Surrender."

Qian Ai: "..."

The bowl in his hand was too hot. Qian Ai didn't hold on for long. With a lot of doubts, she slipped back to the living room.

When the instant noodles were put in place, Zuo Siyou thought about it, but he was still unreliable. After being cruel, he ignored the instant noodles and went to the bedroom first.

Upon entering the room, Jin Xin looked at Xu Wang, Xu Wang looked at Chi Yingxue, and Chi Yingxue looked at the letter on the bed.

letter?

Qian Ai quietly leaned against the bed and squinted to see that there were not many contents on the five pieces of letter paper, the characters were very beautiful, and the letter paper was also very beautiful, elegant and plain. Look carefully. The lines are faintly visible under the light.

"Do you mean, he is the king now?" Xu Wang looked up and down his new teammates, and there was really no way to be as eye-catching as Kang Jinxin.

"No, uh, it's still Chi Yingxue," Kang Jinxin remembered the classmate's request, "but not the last Chi Yingxue."

Xu Wangfu the amount, too much things this night, his brain capacity can't keep up.

Chi Yingxue has been completely attracted by the few pieces of stationery, completely ignoring what is being said here. He reached over and grabbed a piece of stationery and tilted his head for a few seconds. Like some fun game he met, he asked Xu Wang excitedly, "Where is the mother?"

The author has something to say: Owl: Your assist is online.
