Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

It's not that she hasn't tried to get in touch with them.

But she doesn't even need to talk to them, just getting closer will cause them to react strongly:
They neighed at her, bursting out with a strong sense of fear and hostility. Holding their respective weapons, they faced her and kept backing away, not wanting to contact her at all.

She panicked.

She doesn't like being hated.

She wanted to get close to them from the bottom of her heart, subconsciously she felt inexplicable kindness from them, like...

family.

She was isolated by her family.

So the courtyard is full of loneliness.

She never took the initiative to go to that place again.

Not when there are too many of those voices—when countless voices form a torrent, the countless overlapping voices become indistinct, and those indistinct voices become murmurs of some variation, and So totally incomprehensible.

Wolf Reibert touched Alu's hand with only three fingers left, and his mood became heavy unconsciously.

Influenced by the people around him, Alu and a few friends followed the trend of the times and came to Days Island. By chance, they spent all their savings and entered a family of pipers in the mechanical hive of Days Island. opened technical schools.

The Luke natives are all relatively old, Aru looks like he has grown up, and the tall and burly Wolf Ribot doesn't look too young.

They can only go to the mine agent to find an explanation.

Now, those voices reappeared, but she was not "pulled" into the patio, because those voices were weak and not strong enough.

They are very grateful.

Few people can get through the phone, and even if they get through, the other party will push the ball after hearing his appeal, or hang up directly.

"Messiah, let's go."

And now, in February, when the polar night just ended, the white-haired wind that can penetrate thick cotton clothes is blowing on the snowy field of Kaki Island. Lines of footprints were quickly covered by Xiaoxue.

A mobile phone that can be turned on and is not damaged!
The signal in the underground mining area was very poor. Although Alu was excited, he forcibly suppressed his excitement.

Therefore, the only resistance for the three of them is the snow on the ground - as a higher-dimensional area of ​​Binan City, Kaki Island has 9 months of snow in a year, and the remaining 1 month is polar night, and 2 Summer when the monthly temperature is not high.

The agent told them that the reason why they only cut off two fingers was because they had tried it. After two fingers were cut off, the hands were the limit of how they could hold the pickaxes.

It's the same everywhere.

She didn't want to go to that place anymore, and had a strong resistance to that "thing", so that "thing" stopped calling.

Wolf Reibert took a last look at the location on his phone, then turned on the camera, clicked the camera button, turned off the screen, put the phone in his chest pocket, pointed the camera at the trembling figure, and whispered called out:
"Aru?"

Within a few days of class, the school will charge tuition and miscellaneous fees, as well as the cost of making professional certification certificates-this is a sum of money that was not mentioned when I enrolled.

When she looked back, Wolf Reibert stood up. Although his face was still pale, he had stopped vomiting.

Alu is a genuine native of Yanan City. He lost his job after the Yanan City Square meeting stipulated that minors could not participate in manual work. At that time, Yanan City opened the airport, and a wave of "Empire will open a second time." The rumors of the Great Age of Discovery spread wildly among the people of Yanan City.

Wolf Reibert couldn't help but clenched the camera hanging around his neck inside his chest.

She was extremely puzzled, those voices came from the courtyard, but there were obviously monsters in the courtyard, how could the monsters make the voices that ordinary people would make, and tell those ordinary prayers?

The countless chaotic, pitiful voices that ordinary people would make when praying, kept passing through the courtyard and appearing in her mind.

But those weird voices didn't stop.

There are no relatively high mountains on Kaki Island, but mostly hills, and the vegetation is not dense. The cold zone deciduous forests that originally covered the hills have been cut down. From a distance, there are no trees, but the transportation pipelines are like giant steel snakes. Generally meandering through woodland corpses.

"You are here..."

The work on the island far exceeded their expectations.

The most infuriating thing is that they can't get their full salary - they came here as "interns" in technical schools, and they signed "internship contracts" with the mine on Kaki Island, and their income is extremely high. Most of it goes to the "practice school" - their salaries, the mine goes directly to the technical school.

Until a call woke her up from her confusion.

In front of them, a friend had two fingers cut off.

Since then, although Alu and others are afraid, they are still unwilling.

He was obviously prepared for his own bad situation. He took out a telescopic trekking pole from his backpack, opened it, held the trekking pole in one hand, and held the mobile phone in the other hand, looking at the map on the special map app on the mobile phone. satellite positioning, and walked towards the mining area with glutinous rice fruit and Messiah.

They were so grateful that they could not wait to respect the teacher as their own mother.

Nuomi Guo wrote down the scenes here with his mobile phone, and planned to organize these scenes into his own notes when he went back.

He called people he knew—colleagues and classmates who were relatively trustworthy in the past, but these people were in Yanan City and the island chain, and they were busy with work. To save him, I tried to find an excuse to hang up the phone.

The flute teacher said again: But the school can’t support you for nothing. How about this, the school will introduce you to a part-time job. up.

Facing Wolf Reibert's question, Aru simply answered:
"Such a set of equipment is very expensive... Anyway, it must not be as cheap as labor."

During the daytime the next day, he called the mechanical hive's police department again, but the line was still busy.

The courtyard seems to have magical powers. She often feels that there is a "something" in the courtyard calling her when she dreams back in the middle of the night and feels drowsy.

"Wolf!"

The young man trembled and turned around. The thick black eye sockets almost made people think that he had turned into some kind of zombie.

Aru and two other miners survived.

They had their mobile phones confiscated on the grounds of confidentiality in the mining area, and started an incredibly difficult job.

Most of the functions of the camera have been replaced by mobile phones, so he did not use the camera left by his father as a tool. He subconsciously touched the camera because he subconsciously thought it was something his father left him. The subconscious told him that his father He used this camera to take precious photos, and risked his death to drive out evil and achieve justice.

During one excavation operation, the mine collapsed unexpectedly, and about a dozen people, including the miners and the supervisor at the time, were buried in it.

A few days after the collapse accident, Alu once again came to a certain mining area around the collapsed area to carry out excavation operations. He came here by accident while going to the toilet, recalling the position where the supervisor stood closer to the edge of the collapsed area. , and start digging down.

Fortunately, the snow covered up all the filth, leaving only an obvious path that was often trampled by people, so that people would not get lost.

Messiah followed behind the two of them. Blocking the voices that appeared in her mind had consumed most of her strength, and the remaining strength was barely enough for her to walk in the snow.

He rubbed the position between his brows, and said in a low voice:
"Today is not a centralized transportation day, so there are no boats on the shore. My informant is already waiting for us in a corner of the mining area. The journey is not far away. Let's hurry up..."

What did he realize.

After knowing the truth, Alu and his friends were furious.

Wolf Ribot always believed that this was wrong, so he came to Kaki Island with a heart of reverence for justice. He believed that as a reporter, it was necessary for him to make the crimes here public.

He dug out the Overseer's backpack and got a cell phone from it.

Aru felt cold.

But they have no way to question the teachers of the technical school, because their mobile phones have been confiscated and they cannot communicate with the outside world.

The camera gave him some courage.

The "kind-hearted" flute teacher told them: don't worry about lack of money, the school will not let you go to class because of lack of money.

……

Wolf Raibert carefully watched the steam track, listening to the vibrations between sleepers and stones under the steam track. He knew that this island was not as peaceful and peaceful as it appeared on the surface, so everything was done in a cautious manner. Vigilance is a must.

When Wolf Reibert heard such a simple answer, he felt as if he had returned to Yanan City, as if he was walking on the dirty, muddy road full of garbage and excrement in the industrial area of ​​Yanan City, as if he saw the Workers who work hard all day in the bitter cold winter without covering their bodies.

Fortunately, Jaki Island is not big, and it didn't take long for the three of them to reach the edge of the mining area.

Just like what my father once did to the industrial area of ​​Yanan City.

When the three of them arrived here, a young Luke with a cigarette in his left hand was waiting tremblingly under the eaves of the model house. He seemed to be hard of hearing, and the three of them were only a few steps away from him, but he Still didn't notice—he didn't turn his head.

This is also a sum of money that is enough to make Alu and his friends desperate—after paying the tuition fees, Alu and a few of his friends have already almost lost their fortune, and can only survive by staying up every night until the early morning to distribute leaflets.

At this moment, he thought that most of the supervisors are cowards who are greedy for life and fear of death. When they open up new mines, they usually stand at the outermost edge of the mine, but this time this person was unlucky and was buried in it...

Even in summer, Kaki Island is only at the point where it is not cold to wear a jacket during the day, and it is necessary to wear cotton clothes for outdoor activities at night.

She doesn't understand anything.

It was a whole row of dilapidated model houses. Years of heavy snow had completely corroded the blue paint on the model houses, and the original color could hardly be seen. On the side, it is used as an open-air dry toilet, so the sanitation environment is quite poor.

"They will cut off two fingers, but they will not kill easily, because they want people to do the work for them."

That night, Aru called the police department of the Mechanical Hive on Days Island, but the line was always busy and no one answered.

Alu limped forward and held Wolfe's hand, his expression was agitated, trembling all over, tears flowed down the dark circles of his eyes:

They tried to escape, but each time they were unsuccessful.

Not only do they have to work more than 12 hours a day, but they also have to borrow money to buy safety clothing and helmets!

Fortunately, Alu's luck has not been bad.

In Alu's next narration, the other two knew the whole story of the connection between him and Wolf Ribot——

In his anger, he found the phone numbers of various departments on the Internet, including but not limited to the mechanical hive and the police department of Yanan City, the tax bureau, and the island chain management department...

As Alu spoke, he held the cigarette with his right hand with only three fingers left, and puffed it up, as if this could reduce his inner fear, anxiety and uneasiness.

Now they have to pay the tuition and miscellaneous fees, they can't afford it no matter what.

"Why not build an automated mine? I heard that some mining islands in the primary industry have already used mechanically automated production lines, and even some mining robots."

Under the arrangement of the technical school, they soon came to Kaki Island by boat.

She stood where she was, thinking about everything about the patio, and fell into a daze.

Without the help of satellite positioning with a mobile phone map, it would be difficult for normal people to find the correct road on Kaki Island, because there are large oil transportation pipelines and steam tracks used to transport coal mines between the hills and ravines on the island. Man-high pipes are scattered throughout the island, forming a huge steel labyrinth on the surface of Kaki Island.

Whenever the whispers of these variations appear in her ears, part of her consciousness will be uncontrollably "pulled" into the courtyard. At this time, no matter where she is, her vision in reality will be the same as that of the courtyard. The phantoms in the screen overlap like a constant burst of strobes on a monitor.

Fortunately, those voices were not malicious, so she was able to survive the huge torrent of voices.

The world is hot.

At this time, Alu still didn't have the idea of ​​"if I'm not an orphan, if I have parents, my parents will come back to save me", because he was used to living without parents since he was a child, and he didn't think about it at all.

He didn't give up.

He began to try to contact people from the outside world on the Internet, and he wanted to send a distress call to the Internet.

But almost no one on the Internet cares about what he said, and most people only regard him as a liar. Even if he told the exact location, no one believed him, because the output value of Jaki Island on the surface is the first. Among the dozens of islands in the island chain, it even ranks in the top ten. The previous reports are all positive, and there is nothing wrong with it from any corner of the Internet.
