Chapter 280: Mutation - Suspended Ground 10
Anjiu held her arm, carried her on his back, and walked upstairs lightly.
The girl is very thin and light, so it is not difficult for her to carry me.
Her breath sprayed shallowly on Anjiu's neck, like a kitten.
Anjiu walked and stopped along the way, occasionally hiding behind the door panel, and continued to go up after others left. When she reached the eighth floor, she turned into the dim corridor and chose the first room on the left.
He opened the door with the master key, walked in, locked it, and then put her on the bed.
As soon as she put it down, she tilted her head and spat out a mouthful of blood, with a strong smell of blood coming out with her breath.
Her face was full of pain and her thin eyebrows were twisted together.
Anjiu pinched her limbs inch by inch, but she didn't react at all.
When I touched the depression below her chest, she immediately moaned in pain.
"Feel sorry."
——Her ribs were broken.
It must have been stepped on and broken, and it is very likely that the internal organs were punctured.
It's too late to save the situation.
Anjiu sat on the bed beside her, looking at her pale cheeks and slightly trembling long eyelashes in the dim light.
She felt sorry. "I can't save you. Even the only doctor here is dead. Maybe you know where there is medicine. I'll find you some painkillers."
Tears flowed down the corners of the young lady's eyes. She endured the pain in her chest and ribs and said intermittently: "I... don't know. Thank you, thank you... for bringing me here."
Compared to being pressed under a corpse and dying in pain and fear, this place is soft and clean, and there is a living person by her side. She should feel satisfied...
But why is she dying...
She has never done anything bad in her life and is friendly to others. Why?
Her life has just begun...
If only I hadn't followed those people...
Looking at the tears streaming from the corners of her eyes, An Jiu understood the feeling of walking towards death alone while awake.
Something that others cannot share.
She stood up and fetched some mineral water, took out a tablet of anti-inflammatory and antipyretic medicine from the space and put it to her mouth.
"Take it. It's written in the instructions that antipyretics can also relieve pain."
The young lady was stunned, but opened her mouth without any hesitation and swallowed the medicine.
The room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Anjiu could clearly feel her breathing becoming increasingly heavy.
After a while, she suddenly broke the silence: "...I feel much better, cough, your medicine is very effective."
Anjiu avoided his gaze and nodded.
The young lady saw her worry and wanted to smile, but as soon as she opened her mouth, blood came out of her throat again.
The white bed sheet was suddenly stained red.
Anjiu skillfully wiped her mouth with a towel, and when he was about to withdraw his hand, she grabbed his hand.
She opened her eyes wide, tried to look up, and asked sadly: "...Are you afraid?"
An Jiu shook his head, "I'm not afraid."
“…I will die tonight.”
"Yeah." She knew.
“You…” The little sister cried until her eyes were bloodshot, and she said half expectantly and half beggingly, “But I’m scared, can you stay with me… Okay… Don’t be afraid, even if I die, I won’t become a ghost to scare you… Don’t leave, I’m afraid of the dark.”
When she was excited, blood foam spurted out of her mouth, splashing spots on her face, making her skin look even whiter, a white that even the sunset in the sky could not turn red.
This is the color of life that is about to disappear.
An Jiu gently wiped away the traces for her, "Don't worry, I won't leave until tomorrow morning."
"well."
She let go of her hands and lay on her back on the bed, her pupils dilated as she stared at the square lampshade, not knowing what she was thinking.
Anjiu was still sitting beside her, with his back against the headboard, staring out at the sky where only the last ray of afterglow remained, lost in thought.
Darkness gradually engulfed the room.
……
"Ahem...little sister, are you still there?"
"Yes, yes."
……
“…Are you still there?”
"here I am."
……
"It's... so dark... I can't see anything... Turn on the light... please."
"Well, turn on the light when the phone rings."
……
"What's that noise...outside?"
"mouse."
……
“…Huh, I…”
"Don't be afraid, I'm right next to you."
……
"……Thanks."
"..."
……
Anjiu looked at the black in the sky that was gradually diluted. The eastern sky was seeping with an orange-yellow color like the sunset, which faded and turned into pink and then pale.
At this time, the sky was already bright.
Anjiu stood up and stretched his stiff body after sitting all night, moving his joints to relieve the discomfort.
Looking back at the bed, the young lady had her eyes closed and her face was peaceful. Just as I said before, she was not scared.
"It's dawn, I have to go."
Anjiu opened the door and went downstairs without looking back.
There were several more corpses in the stairwell, and a bowl of food that had been snatched away in the middle of the night was lying beside them.
Anjiu stepped past them and walked through the empty lobby to the outside.
The first thing she did was to look up and discover that the small floating land was descending. Then she lay down at her previous position and looked down. The large floating land she had seen last night was now floating far away from here.
The floating land under your feet is drifting diagonally upwards.
If we follow this direction... Anjiu drew the direction of the floating lands above his head in his mind, judging whether it is possible to meet here.
Those who had been busy for most of the night were now sleeping soundly in their rooms, so she was not worried that anyone would come out.
Anjiu took out some water and a large cold bone from the space and ate them, when he suddenly realized - wasn't the space able to keep warm before?
When she first went to the other world, it was only one cubic meter. The temperature of the buns would remain the same when they were taken out as when they were put in.
How come now that the area has gotten bigger, it can’t keep warm anymore?
An Jiu was deeply confused, but the space did not give any hints, so she could only regard it as a side effect of the increase in space area.
If this inference is correct, then perhaps when the area increases again in the future, there will be other different changes.
But no matter when, she feels that area is more important than insulation. Only when the place is bigger can more things be stored.
Just as I was thinking about it, a shadow fell over my head.
——A small suspended land is about to fall.
Anjiu stuffed the last bite of meat into his mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it mixed with water, then wiped his greasy fingers on the marble floor under his feet.
He tightened the straps of his backpack, waited until it landed in the right position, then jumped up in one leap and walked all the way to the middle before stopping.
She looked at the bungalow building which belonged to the village in the city.
The exposed red bricks and roofs covered with weeds show that these bungalows have existed for decades. The passage in the middle is not only narrow, but also high on both sides and low in the middle.
The cramped single-person iron door is stuck between the walls, exactly symmetrical with the one opposite.
