A journey of seven souls escaping from the basement

The action of holding the package tightly made Lapland's breathing become heavier and more messy, and her chest swelled. She stretched out her free hand and coldly pulled out the unsightly thing from Yabu's arms, and then He threw it to the ground roughly as if throwing away something dirty.

The package fell to the ground with a muffled sound, and Lapland stomped on it, but the feedback made her realize that there seemed to be something soft inside.

Just crushing it back and forth with her feet could not crush it, which made Lapland even more angry. She kicked the package aside, took out the sharp weapon she carried around her waist, and waved it with cold eyes.

Bang-!

One knife...and another knife...

The sound it made didn't sound like a slash at all, because facing this small package, Lapland even used his own Origin Stone memory.

Regardless of whether the weapon hits any other furniture during the swing, or the scratches the weapon will leave on the walls or even the ground, there is only one thing to do, and that is to destroy the package and remove it. Get rid of the things that annoy you.

The package had already broken apart during the first attack, and the contents were scattered all over the floor, but Lapland still didn't give up. She repeated the slashing and stabbing movements like a man possessed, using all her strength with every blow. , the force was so strong that it was like punching through the floor, hoarse gasps and the sharp sound of weapons breaking through the air came one after another.

Even if he lost his mind, facing the package that had been completely opened and turned into debris all over the place, Lapland could still identify what was originally wrapped in the package - some clothes.

"The gift you gave to others turned out to be clothes. Your relationship really became very good without me knowing about it, Yabu."

While attacking, Lapland's other hand did not let go. Instead, as the weapon was swung, that hand was constantly clenching inwards to exert force.

Facing Lapland's mocking words, Yabu lowered his head and looked at the debris on the ground. He seemed to have made some response, but Lapland did not even make the sound of pain at the beginning. Listen to it, not to mention that the condition at this moment is so bad that it seems to be just the sound of lips moving up and down.

I don’t know how long the venting that almost forgot everything lasted, until the remains of the package on the ground were mixed with the debris of other items in the house and the original appearance could not be seen, until Lapland’s body was exhausted and left alone. Unable to hold the weapon steady, she finally stopped attacking, breathing heavily, but her eyes still showed a frightening ferocity.

"Huh...huh..."

Sweat dripped from her forehead and wet the skirt of her clothes. The room was completely silent, with only the sound of breathing echoing in the air. After a while, Lapland's breathing finally calmed down.

What you get from completely venting your emotions is a kind of morbid fulfillment and satisfaction, but it is like drinking sea water when you are thirsty. What follows is confusion and emptiness, and your body is not sure whether it is due to extreme excitement or exhaustion. He was shaking uncontrollably, and could only rely on his weapons to support his body to keep from falling.

The hand that had been holding Yabu tightly for a long time was deformed because she had been using too much force, and it was even difficult to open it. However, in the end, she temporarily lost the ability to think and lost strength due to the end of the catharsis, making Yabu free from her It fell from the hand, like a rotten leaf full of holes falling off a tree, falling silently to the ground.

She stood there blankly, looking at the cloth that fell on the ground expressionlessly, but she just looked there instinctively. In fact, she didn't receive any information, and she was just staring at one location as if she was distracted.The huge mental consumption made her feel a little exhausted, her eyes lost focus, and only the sound of breathing was left to let people know that this was a living thing.

Time passed in silence, and after the sludge-like emotions gradually weakened as the catharsis ended, her resurfaced rationality allowed her to begin to receive information from the outside world, and the first thing she began to receive was naturally the information that had been in her field of vision. Yabu.

Looking from bottom to top, the most serious thing is that Yabu's body has become more transparent at this moment. If you don't follow the clear right half of the body and gradually move towards a more transparent place, then the left half of the body will not be visible at first glance. It can't even be noticed by looking at it.

But what completely contradicts the transparency are the green cracks on Yabu's body. They have become more solid, and even spread across his neck to his chin. Combined with the look of Yabu's dying breath, it looks like those lines have strangled him. neck.

Normally, seeing other people's scarred appearance will inevitably arouse people's sadness or sympathy.However, when Lapland looked at Yabu, she felt a completely different feeling in her heart.

She felt a sense of satisfaction, one that tasted like blood in her throat.

Breathing involuntarily increases, and heartbeat speeds up. These ferocious marks are like the bite marks left by wild beasts on prey, symbolizing the mark they leave on the other person.

A twisted joy rose in her heart. This injured look proved that he belonged to her, at least at this moment, he belonged to her alone. The wounds she left on the other person seemed to declare that she had been there, declared that Taking ownership gave her an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.

Lapland clung to this feeling, even if the satisfaction came from a sinister desire for control, even if it meant hurting him.

Even if the other party may die as a result...

So what will his expression look like now?

Following his neck, Lapland looked at Yabu's face.

But to her surprise, there was no anger, sadness, or even pain on the other person's face. Only the empty eyes and the mechanical opening and closing of the lips remained there, like a trash heap that had been messed up by someone. Lost toys.

"That......"

What are you talking about?

quibble?beg for mercy?Or insult?

But the sound was too small. No, it should be said that there was no sound at all. Lapland could only stand up straight and tilt his head, trying to identify Yabu's mouth shape.

"That......"

Focusing on Yabu's lip reading, her brain gradually understood what the other party was saying, but the result hit Lapland like a heavy hammer at the moment, making her subconsciously think that it was I identified it wrong.

Her originally steady breathing became rapid, and her hands clenched unconsciously, as if she realized that some terrible fact was about to be revealed. Panic surged in Lapland's heart, and was forced to suppress it in an instant. She stared at Yabu's face. Mouth shape, forcing yourself to confirm the other person's words again.

I made a mistake. There must be something wrong somewhere...

Unwilling to accept that too cruel fact, Lapland even had the idea of ​​deceiving himself, but the other party kept repeating that sentence. No matter how he tried to identify it, no matter how many times, it was still the same sentence, and it might be wrong once. , it may be wrong twice, but the result will be the same no matter how many times.

"That gift... is for... Lapland you..."

The other party kept repeating the words he wanted to convey, and he finally conveyed them now that it was already too late, echoing in Lapland's mind.That sentence dyed everything in her brain pale, and the weapon she had never taken off when fighting with others slipped from her hand and hit the ground with a clang.

-------------------------------------

...I don’t know if it has stabilized now.

After getting up, Texas stood in front of the sink. While washing, he seemed to be looking at himself seriously in the mirror, but in fact, his thoughts had already gone elsewhere.

Since the first disappearance last night, Yabu is like a light bulb with poor contact, flashing out in Texas from time to time. Although this is not always the case, Yabu proposes that it will not happen in this case. It was too convenient to talk, so I asked Texas to go to bed first.

And in order not to disturb Texas’ rest...

After all, it’s pretty weird to have people flashing around your house all the time.

In order not to disturb Texas' rest, Yabu went to the corridor outside first.

Although he was teleported several times during the process of going to the corridor, it was obviously only a short distance from the living room to the outside of the room, but Yabu had to walk twice to complete it, which shows how frequent the teleportation was.

...I don’t know if Yabu is still flashing outside.

After washing, Texas did not change her clothes carefully. After all, today was the weekend. She did not need to go out and did not plan to go out. Instead, she planned to stay near home all day. Naturally, she did not need to make too many demands in a familiar environment. Wearing light casual clothes and slippers, she opened the door.

Naturally, there was no one in the aisle. They might have gone to Lapland, or they might be at another time.

This is not surprising. Although it is said that Yabu is strobing, he is actually on the other side of the teleporter most of the time. The stroboscopic refers to the time interval between when he comes back and when he leaves. It will only exist for a short time before being captured again. Sending off, as for the time between leaving and coming back next time, sometimes the interval is quite long.

It's reasonable if we didn't meet him by chance.

But Texas still scratched his hair, and the corners of his eyes drooped a little.

After all, there is still a little bit of expectation in my heart to open the door and see the person I want to see.

Anyway, it's better to go to Lapland to confirm and confirm whether Yabu has returned home.

dong dong dong-

Knocking on Lapland's door as regularly as ever, and then waiting for the other party to open the door.

However, is it because Yabu didn't come back?This time it took much longer to open than usual.

ga-

After a while, the door creaked open a crack, and Lapland's face was slowly revealed. After seeing the other party's appearance, Texas frowned unconsciously.

"What's wrong with you? Texas couldn't help but ask.

Through the gap, Texas could see that Lapland looked very bad at the moment. Her hair was messy, her eyes were bloodshot, and her face was pale. She was leaning against the door, like a lost soul, and she seemed to be standing even It's all laborious.

"Texas." Lapland's voice sounded hoarse and weak. She did not answer Texas's inquiry, but instead asked a question that sounded irrelevant, "Hubu, is he?" It’s not something I bought.”

"Huh? Have you arrived already? Although Texas didn't understand why Lapland asked such a question, since Lapland asked it, she still repeated what Yabu said yesterday," he said. You have always been a little sad, and you always stared at the gift after that. I guessed that you also wanted a gift, so I bought you a gift too, and the gift was..."

But as she spoke, thinking of the other person's state at the moment, and the way those dull eyes seemed to be dodging something, an ominous feeling came to Texas's heart, and she suddenly silenced her voice, Staring at Lapland, he asked:

"What did you do......"

"..."

Immediately aware of what might be happening in the room at this moment, Texas kicked the door to the room without any hesitation, kicked the door completely open and rushed in, clearly seeing the scene in the room.

"...Lapland—!"

-------------------------------------

*it's all over.

-------------------------------------

Chapter 1: What did the doctor say?

I can’t remember anything anymore, I can’t remember anything...

When he regained his ability to think, Lapland found that he had arrived at the corner of the rooftop where there was no one around, and sat on the ground leaning against the wall.

Only at this time, Lapland felt a little bit of what it felt like when Yabu lost his memory.

She could no longer remember how she got here. Lapland, who had lost his soul, was completely dragged to this deserted place by his own body.

With the recovery of thinking ability, the body also began to report various situations to the brain, and the first thing to reach the brain was pain, real pain.

After moving his rattling neck, moving his head to the side and spitting blood, Lapland raised his uncontrollably trembling hand to the corner of his mouth.

The lips were already dry and cracked, and the blood had dried up there.

Got beat by Texas.

There was faint redness and swelling on the face, a line of blood spilled from the corner of the mouth, and there was a tearing pain in the teeth and mouth. It was probably because the flesh in the mouth was scratched by the teeth when he was beaten.

After Texas learned about the situation inside the house, LaPland was punched in the face with no mercy.

If it were in the past, facing this kind of attack, Lapland would probably be very excited to fight with the opponent.

But looking at Texas's angry eyes and looking at the tragic situation in her room, Lapland couldn't find the slightest desire to fight back. She even gave up on herself and thought that she might as well let Texas Just beat yourself to death.

The room seemed to be covered with needles that only he could see. He couldn't stay there at all. There was no place for him to stand.

After being punched, Lapland did not make any move to fight back, and walked out of the room looking at the ground with blank eyes.

It was only at this moment that the cold wind blew over the blood scabs on her face, and the pain awakened a glimmer of consciousness, and she slowly came back to her senses.

The wound on her face felt like being stabbed repeatedly by needles, and the pain caused was transmitted along the spinal cord to the brain like an electric current. The cold ground on the rooftop made her body unable to retain any warmth. Her hands and feet were cold and numb, and her whole body was shaking. , but in comparison, she felt that her heart was more painful and colder than that at this moment.

Holding her messy white hair with both hands, Lapland's mind was in chaos. She was obviously the only one on the stage, but she felt that her ears were constantly ringing as if they were broken.

"No no no...no no no no no no..."

Why...what have I done...what have I done...

I covered my ears hard, but the maddening tinnitus could still be clearly heard. My eyes had just been closed, but the tragic situation in the room that I had caused, the debris on the ground, and the things that I had destroyed with my own hands were originally meant for His gift was like a sharp knife piercing Lapland's heart again and again, repeating itself in Lapland's mind.

"What on earth... am I for..." Lapland's expression was numb, and his hoarse voice murmured to himself in despair.

What have I done...

The focus is completely wrong, and the things done are completely wrong because of it.

What I wanted was obviously for Yao Bu to stay, but why in the end, I wanted to deny what was bound to happen in the future, and wanted to prove that I could change the future, but what I did was to hurt Yao Bu with my own hands. But he wanted to kill Yao Bu...

Whether the future will definitely come or not is not important at all... What is important is not this at all, this is simply... What she did and what she wanted him to stay at the beginning will be... The idea of ​​having Bu Liu by his side... is completely the opposite!

But now it's too late...

The other party clearly wanted to give him a gift, but the gift he received in return was misunderstood scolding, insults, and an attack that was completely out of anger.

Will he still consider him a friend?

Snapped--

Without any restraint, Lapland slapped the injured part of his face hard.

Ha, friend.

A friend who would almost kill him because of his emotions?Who would be friends with such a person?He is probably the most asshole he has ever encountered in his life.

What are you still thinking about?

I no longer deserve this title...

When Yabu wakes up, what will he think when he sees himself next time?

hatred?disgust?fear?Afraid?Or is it rejection?Repelled to see her again, to see an unstable creature who is crazy and unable to control his heart and vents his emotions to others in the form of violence?

Or, all of them.

I can no longer see him again, absolutely not, not only because of consideration for the other party, but also because Lapland cannot imagine that if he sees Yabu next time, the other party will give him any of the above-mentioned looks. What will it turn out to be...

It's already, completely over, there's no turning back...

Feeling that the whole world was collapsing, she curled up tightly, waiting for the black hole of despair to swallow her...

hum-

Until the phone in his pocket rang.

-------------------------------------

"I'm very happy that you have such confidence in me, but what do you think of calling me to save people? Do you think I look like a doctor..."
