Wild Deer Convenience Store

Chapter 25 Modes of Sound

The last words it said before the voice died away were: "Don't let 'Vello' find out, you already know the truth."

What would happen otherwise?

Obviously terrified, Ai Weili couldn't take his eyes off the reflection of Wei Luo's broken neck.When she was about to ask, Wei Luo's reflection suddenly faded, and then she had returned to a normal and familiar appearance - she was turning her head towards herself at this time, her head was still well supported by her neck.

Ai Weili knew that this meant that the voice had disappeared.

"Ai Weili?" Wei Luo was about to stretch out his hand to push the door, but after glancing at her, he took it back hesitantly, and in the end he still didn't push the door open by himself. "What's wrong with you, why are you standing still?"

Her attitude sounded so natural, as if the two of them hadn't stood motionless in front of the door for several minutes just now. It seemed that the voice was right, but in the eyes of others, it was indeed just a blink of an eye.

Can't open the door and walk out, and can't make her realize that she already knows the truth
Ai Weili pressed his hands tightly on his legs, took a breath to prevent them from trembling, and then turned his head towards Wei Luo.

There was no broken head hanging down on one side of the chest; Wero, who was slightly taller than her, was still the same as not long ago.After a night of fleeing, resisting, and taking care of herself, her hair was disheveled, her skin was slightly red, and her lips were dry and slightly peeled.So close she could see the tiny freckles on Willow's cheekbones.

What remains unchanged is Wei Luo's eyes, like night stars, which will not be lost in the night.

Willow always seemed brighter and warmer than the others; even then.

Ai Weili is not stupid, an inexplicable voice suddenly heard from outside the door told her that Wei Luo was actually dead, and she naturally would not accept all orders immediately; but this did not prevent her from acting cautiously and being careful—at least , she can wait for a while.

What came out of her mouth was a truth: "I am afraid."

"What are you afraid of?" Wei Luo was taken aback, his tone softened a bit. "I've been out once, look at me, am I okay? Let's go, what are we doing in this store. "

"I'll continue to wait and leave after dawn, otherwise I don't feel at ease. What if you just happened to be lucky last time?" Ai Weili wanted to smile, but his cheeks were too heavy to move, as if to Her breath was overwhelmed. "It's getting closer now. In a few hours, it will be dawn. Generally speaking, these ghosts and supernatural things will completely disappear when the sun appears?"

Outside the glass gate, in the barbecue restaurant across the road, a girl with a ponytail laughed loudly when she heard what her friend said—she remembered this scene; this was the first time tonight.

"But is it safe inside the store?" Wei Luo opened his eyes wide and said, "Think about it, we haven't experienced enough in this store? Why is it more dangerous outside than inside? The one who just took the phone That thing..."

"Fortunately, I survived in the store," Ai Weili said, only to realize that he said "I", not "we".Fortunately, Willow didn't seem to notice such a subtle difference; she paused, and continued: "At least we know how to avoid the things in the store and go outside, and we don't even know what we will encounter."

"But I really don't want to spend the night in a convenience store! There are still several hours before dawn." Wei Luo was very unhappy, and lamented, "My physique is considered very good, but now my whole body is in pain , especially my neck, somehow, it seems to be broken. I miss my bed so much”

As she spoke, she tilted her head and rubbed her neck vigorously a few times.

Ai Weili remembered that since Wei Luo returned to the store, he had been rubbing his neck unconsciously.

"Then, how about you go home first?" She said in a low voice, "I have nowhere to go when I leave anyway. I really don't want to go into the upstairs apartment."

"What are you talking about?" Wei Luo scratched her with white eyeballs, obviously annoyed: "Didn't I just say that the warning on the phone told us not to separate? Now you tell me to go home by myself, you Have you forgotten what happened just now?"

Ai Weili forced a smile. "Then we wait until dawn?"

"Do I have a choice? You refuse to leave, and I can't be separated from you. I'm just unlucky."

Wei Luo is obviously very reluctant to stay in the convenience store - from another perspective, if she is a real living person, this seems to be a matter of course: after all, she once walked out of the store and saw the normal and safe outside. How could she be happy if she was blocked by Ai Weili at the last moment and had to stay in a convenience store full of unknown threats?
It was difficult for Ai Weili to judge whether she wanted to return to the normal world or to trick her out, but she was too frightened to take any rash actions.

"You're as stubborn as a donkey," Wei Luo scolded her angrily after the two of them argued back and forth a few times, "It's okay, if you want to stay, you Let the wind go, I'm really exhausted, I can't stand it, I'm going to sleep."

Maybe it was because she was out of breath, or maybe it was because she wanted Ai Weili to relax her vigilance, but she actually made a bed for herself.

The so-called "bed" is actually a floor that even homeless people don't like: Vero stuffed a few packs of sanitary napkins into a plastic bag and tied them, and they were regarded as pillows; put it on the ground in front of the cashier counter, and used it as a mattress—even though Ai Weili reminded that the female stars on the cover of gossip magazines used to be strange, Wei Luo was not moved, but covered it again. A piece of cardboard from a shipping box.

"Good night," she snatched away Ai Weili's coat a long time ago, put it on her body as a quilt, and turned around angrily, leaving only Ai Weili's back.

"I'll let it out," Ai Weili said in a low voice, looking at the back of her head.

"You'd better be, or I'll never let you go." She said without looking back.

How could it be possible for a person who was so lively and lively when angry, as the voice said, "fate has been cut off"?
Maybe she couldn't explain the "opening the door", and she didn't know how the reflection on the door was formed, but at this moment, Wei Luo, who was so close to her and warmed her fingertips with heat, should be a "human being" "That's right; a person who can sleep peacefully even in such an environment because he believes in Ai Weili.

"Everything that hits you, or tries to hit you, has its own 'pattern.'"

That thin voice sounded from between the two bowls of instant noodles on the opposite shelf, whispering to Ai Weili.

Ai Weili was startled, almost jumped up on the spot, and hurriedly looked back at Wei Luo - Wei Luo still turned his back to her, as if he didn't hear the voice.

"Those things can't go beyond their own 'mode' and attack you." The voice said in a low voice, "It's like um, it's like the 'Earth Bound Spirit' can't follow you like the 'Back Spirit' Walking around, the same reason. Although there are no ghosts in this world."

Ai Weili stared blankly at the male celebrity with the two bowls of instant noodles, and fixed two identical smiling faces at her.

"When you are unlucky and happen to fall within the reach of their 'patterns', even if only partially, you will see strange things like that woman with long hair at the dining table who is still sitting There, but it is already harmless. Because only people who don't know her existence will be attracted by her voice, and when her existence is known, she will no longer be able to speak out against that person."

Ai Weili couldn't help but glanced in the direction of the dining table, but her sight was blocked by the shelves.

"Why are you telling me this?" she asked quietly.

The voice did not answer her directly, but continued: "As for me, my 'mode' is to tell them the truth in a way that makes it hard to tell the truth from the fake. But the way I appear, my voice, and even Everything I said sounds suspicious and frightening. Including this paragraph, what I say will always make people suspect that I have ulterior motives, so even if I tell the truth, others may not believe me."

Ai Weili did not expect the other party to be so self-aware.

"But believe it or not, it's my 'model' to create a dilemma for others that they don't know whether to believe me or not, and it's hard to make a choice." The thin voice laughed and said in a low voice: "Wei Luo's 'mode' is gradually taking shape."

In the dead silence of the store, it sighed softly.

"From the time of her first death, her 'mode' has been implicitly doomed. She is Willow, the natural, outspoken, breezy and extroverted Willow. Every place is trustworthy. When she followed her instinct and started hunting, she would not even be suspicious at all, just like a small sun, burning with vitality and attracting the infinite trust of others .”

It seemed envious, and said carefully; "Her 'pattern' is just the opposite of mine."

How could there be such absurd and unfalsifiable statement, Ai Weili wanted to roar and laugh for a moment; she raised her head and opened her mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

She realized that there was only one person in the world, and she wanted to rush to the other person, tell her about it, laugh and curse together, but she couldn't say it to Willow.

"I have one last piece of advice for you," said the voice slowly, "'Vero' isn't quite one of us yet. She's still in the twilight of her formation, so you still have a chance to escape, When she finally takes shape, it will be too late. Don't go through the front door, go through the back door. The thing that killed Wei Luo last time is restricted by the "mode" at this time, and can no longer attack you. You now take advantage of" Wei Luo's consciousness is not sharp, if you go quietly through the back door, you still have a chance of survival. I know, you think the back door is very dangerous, but if I don’t recommend you to go through the back door, how can I make it difficult to distinguish the truth from the fake, and have ulterior motives? "

"Back door?" Ai Weili couldn't help but tighten his body a little, "You say that just to make me believe you?"

"No no, look, when you realize that I might be trying to gain your trust on purpose, don't you distrust me again?" The voice smiled softly and said, "Send it in a suspicious way." The truth is my 'mode'."

This was the last sentence it said to Ai Weili.

After that, Ai Weili waited for several minutes, and all he could hear was Wei Luo's even and long breathing behind him.

　I bought cat food for low-calorie fat cats for my daughter, and her reaction was the same as that of a fat man when he saw boiled vegetables, and he couldn’t even smell it...
