Lin Sanjiu knew that she wasn't known for her intelligence. However, if she had known that she would end up in such a situation, she would have immediately rushed out of the bathroom and killed the person who was sleeping soundly outside when she heard the flushing sound of the toilet upstairs.
Now, she had been trapped in this residential building for almost ten days.
It wasn't quite accurate to say that she was "trapped". If she could grit her teeth, she could just fly out of the window because there wasn't anyone or anything holding her captive at the moment. Kisaragi Station World, which stretched as far as the eye could see, was shrouded in a gray sky. It looked vast and boundless.
However, she couldn't leave yet.
This was one of the reasons why she had to stay in this residential building. At that moment, Rena walked up to Lin Sanjiu and whispered something to her in a low voice.
"I asked him to get something to eat," Rena pursed her thin lips. Rena pursed her thin lips and had a gloomy expression on her face. A few pimples had appeared on her normally smooth skin due to the stress from the past few days.
As Rena spoke, Reno walked into the kitchen, humming a tune.
"When are we going to kill him?" After Rena finished speaking, she bit her lips tightly and tried her best to control the sudden violent trembling of her hands.
Lin Sanjiu, who was in her brain form, wished she could let out a long sigh.
Speaking of which, everything started that night when she heard the flushing sound of the toilet.
On that night 14 days ago, when Lin Sanjiu heard the sound clearly through the thin floor, the "finger" she formed with her higher consciousness froze.
She had always thought that there was no one else in this building. However, when she thought about it carefully, she realized that none of the three of them had ever been to the 15th floor and above. Perhaps there were survivors living upstairs.
After all, spirits didn't need to flush toilets.
Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment and decided to go upstairs to check out the situation. Since she was in her brain form, no one could see her except for duoluozhong and people whose eyes had been corroded by dark matter. She might as well make use of this free and unrestrained state.
After she made her decision, she immediately turned around and floated out of the ventilation window. However, she only reached the 16th floor after flying for a few meters. Suddenly, she heard footsteps and the sound of a door opening coming from the direction of the bathroom. It sounded like one of the siblings had woken up.
Lin Sanjiu was startled. She suddenly remembered that her corpse was still in the bathtub. It wasn't a big deal if she scared the siblings, but she was afraid that the two kids would throw her corpse out of the building out of impulse. That would be troublesome!
Of course, Lin Sanjiu couldn't be bothered to look at the window on the 16th floor anymore. She hurriedly sped up, turned around, and squeezed through the ventilation window. Coincidentally, she bumped into Reno, who had just pushed the door open and was staring at the corpse in shock.
"This is me," Lin Sanjiu quickly wrote a few words before he could react. He turned the corpse into a card.
Reno opened his mouth and went "Ah" for a long time before he found the right words.
"You … you, you? Is that you? " The first thing that came to his mind was nonsense. After a few seconds, he asked a few important questions, "Isn't that a dead body? Where did you put it? You're dead? Are you a spirit? "
If Lin Sanjiu told him everything from the beginning to the end, the sun would have already risen. Lin Sanjiu thought for a moment and wrote a few simple words, "I won't tell you in the future." Then, she flew through the ventilation window.
It was only then that Reno remembered that the brain had squeezed through the ventilation window. He immediately became anxious, "Hey, where are you going? Why are you running around again? "
[Look at his expression.] Lin Sanjiu suddenly felt like a dog that had been adopted by a kid. She paused for a moment before she gave him a simple explanation, "There's someone up there." While Reno was still in a daze, muttering those three words to himself, trying to figure out what she meant, Lin Sanjiu went through the ventilation window once again with practiced movements.
Like most residential buildings, the units on the same floor and above had the same layout. The brain that flew out from the bathroom on the first floor would naturally land in the bathroom on the second floor.
The bathroom on the 16th floor was completely dark. It seemed that whoever had used the toilet had already switched off the lights and left.
"Are they really survivors?"
Lin Sanjiu thought to herself as she squeezed through the ventilation window.
Compared to other places in Kisaragi Station, this building was much quieter, but there were still many suspicious areas. "That elevator is very strange. That elevator was very strange … If there really were survivors living here, wouldn't they immediately become the target of the Yin spirits?
The door of the washroom was slightly ajar. Lin Sanjiu turned her body sideways and slid through the opening like a ballerina.
The layout of the bathroom was exactly the same as the one downstairs. After exiting the bathroom, there was a corridor that led to the living room. There were two bedrooms on the right. However, because all the lights were off, only a few rough outlines of the furniture still left a few silhouettes in the faint darkness of the night.
Even though Lin Sanjiu's higher consciousness acted as her eyes and ears and was constantly scanning her, just like the naked eye, higher consciousness scanning was also affected by the light. Sometimes, the clarity of the higher consciousness was only slightly better than the naked eye.
Looking out from the bathroom door, Lin Sanjiu could only see a familiar figure in the panoramic view projected by her higher consciousness. It was occupying the center of the living room.
However, that was enough.
When Lin Sanjiu realized what it was, she was so shocked that she forgot to move for a moment.
It was a bed.
The sofa was pushed aside and the coffee table was knocked askew. Not only did the bed look exactly the same as the one that the siblings had moved out, but Lin Sanjiu could even recognize the person sleeping on it at first glance.
"Lin Sanjiu, where the hell have you been?"
Rena, who was sitting on the bed, curled up into a ball. When she saw the grayish-white brain floating in front of the bathroom door, she immediately jumped up. She sounded like she was about to cry. When she rushed closer, Lin Sanjiu saw that Rena's eyes were indeed glistening with tears. "I thought something bad had happened to you, so my brother went out to look for you. However, neither of you came back. I've been waiting here alone. I feel like there are ghosts everywhere, but I can't see anything … Say something. Have you seen my brother?"
Lin Sanjiu was stunned.
"If the person here is Rena, then who is downstairs?
Now, Reno was alone with something? (To be continued.)
PS:
"Thank you for the 2 protective amulets from the Mirror v Balance, the 2 protective amulets from the Peach x 3 dice, and the 2 protective amulets from Nausica … Thank you for your gifts. I feel bad for giving them to me when I'm so poor. I wrote them with my hands while being bitten by a cat. My sincerity is touching … "
"I feel like cats are like art pieces. They look nice in the house, but they're useless …"
"The previous chapter exploded with so many foodies. I felt sorry for all of you … Also, why are there still people who hurt me even though I've written so gently!" To increase my sense of achievement so crazily, I really love you bunch of people who are scared to death!
"From this chapter onwards, I'm going to start writing."
