End of Ten Days

Chapter 56 Sitting

Just as Xiao Rangang was about to scream, Doctor Zhao immediately covered her mouth from behind.

The scream turned into a muffled groan, suppressed in his throat.

Dr. Zhao saw that the three people who had just gone out had no movement. He followed out curiously, but saw such a strange scene that he almost lost his mind in fright.

None of the four people dared to make a sound, and looked quietly at the "person" who looked like a cricket in front of them.

He was seen swinging his hind legs quickly like a bug, and his whole body was constantly changing directions, as if he was looking for something, and from time to time he would lift the two bloody holes on his face and look around.

The twisting of his neck was not like that of a human being. Instead, it was as fast as an insect, and the range of twisting was terrifying.

A few seconds later, the "person" suddenly jumped high into the air and jumped towards the wall of the convenience store.

Qi Xia quickly raised the torch to illuminate, trying to follow the opponent's figure. After all, the most taboo thing in this dark environment was losing the target's whereabouts.

But the moment the torch was raised, even with Qi Xia's psychological quality, he almost fell to the ground with his legs weak.

The walls illuminated by the fire were densely covered with "people".

At a glance, there were at least a dozen of them, all moving quickly on the wall.

As soon as the firelight shone, they seemed to feel something and crawled towards the darkness again.

They look like crickets, cockroaches, and spiders.

Not like a human being at all.

Qi Xia felt that all the hairs on her body were slowly standing on her head.

Along the way, he and Ringo walked to the convenience store in the dark and heard the constant sound of insects.

The sound of insects is sometimes far away and sometimes very close.

It turns out that those are not bugs...but "people" one by one.

When I think about myself and Ringo moving forward, the ground beside me and the wall not far away are all filled with such things...

This feeling cannot even be described as "fearful".

Qi Xia shed a cold sweat, slowly turned around, and waved to several people.

Everyone also understood what he meant and slowly backed away.

Qi Xia held the torch and stared closely at the "people" on the wall, and then retreated into the room step by step with the three people behind him.

They didn't dare to make a sound the whole time and moved extremely slowly.

These people looked like their eyes had been gouged out, and they could only find their way through sounds. Fortunately, everyone knew it was important to save their lives, and no one made a sound.

After closing the door, Qi Xia took a wooden board from the side and put it against the back of the door. Everyone continued to retreat until they reached the corner.

This cold and mottled wall gave everyone a sense of security.

"Then...what is it..." Xiao Ran asked tremblingly.

"It's human..." Dr. Zhao immediately shook his head after finishing speaking, "No... human bones cannot make such movements, they can only be insects..."

Qi Xia took a deep breath and said, "I also heard rustling sounds last night, which means these things did not just appear today, but have always been there."

He turned around and said to Ringo with a serious face: "We are both so lucky that we didn't step on these things along the way..."

Ringo also nodded in shock, looking very frightened.

The four people fell into silence immediately.

Before seeing this terrible scene, maybe everyone could sleep peacefully at night.

But at this time, no one dared to close their eyes. They could only lean on the wall and stare at the door, always on guard against those things breaking in.

The night without sleep and sound was extraordinarily long.

Everyone stood by the wall for half the night, and now their backs and legs ached.

They gradually discovered a problem.

Those "bugs" outside the door seem to be really just bugs.

They didn't want to break into this brightly lit place at all.

Qi Xia is using the rules here to explain the phenomena here.

No matter how weird they look, even if their eyes are bleeding all the time, they are still just bugs.

If "worm" and "clerk" are the same thing, then he will definitely play his role seriously.

In this way, the danger of bugs coming outside the door is not too great. Even if they actively attack humans, they may not hit the door in groups.

Thinking of this, Qi Xia slowly sat down and moved his sore limbs.

Seeing someone taking the lead, the other three people also sat down, but their faces were still nervous.

"Qi Xia... what should we do?" Ringo asked.

Qi Xia touched her chin and said, "Go to sleep."

"sleep?"

"Take a nap and conserve your energy." Qi Xia found a clean wooden board and spread it next to Lin Yu. "We will set off after dawn to find Officer Li."

"But those outside the door..."

"Don't worry." Qi Xia said nonchalantly, "They won't come in. As long as we don't go out, there won't be any danger for the time being."

After hearing this, Ringo nodded cautiously like a child, and then lay down.

Qi Xia also came to the corner, found a clean wooden board to cover the pot, and sat on the wooden board to hold down the pot.

Xiao Ran and Doctor Zhao looked at each other. They glanced at each other, then at Qi Xia and Ringo.

Where can they sleep?

Even if he could completely ignore the bugs outside the door, Xiao Ran always felt that Qi Xia was a dangerous person.

In the story told at the beginning, he was a fraudster who defrauded two million. How could such a person be a good person?

If you sleep with him, will you die inexplicably again in the early morning of the next day?

Qi Xia didn't care at all about the expressions of Xiao Ran and Dr. Zhao. Instead, she leaned against the wall and closed her eyes to rest.

For him, even if these two people stayed up all night, it had nothing to do with him.

Lin Ju, who was lying on the wooden board, looked at Qi Xia sitting in the corner. He couldn't bear it, so he moved to the side and said, "Qi Xia, this wooden board is big enough, you can lie down on it too."

Qi Xia raised her eyelids and said, "No, I'm used to sleeping sitting up."

"Sit and sleep?" After hearing this, Lin Ju thought for a moment, stood up, moved the board to Qi Xia, then lay down again, and continued, "Then you can sit next to me and sleep."

Qi Xia did not refuse. Compared with Xiao Ran and Dr. Zhao, Lin Ju left a pretty good impression on him.

Lin Ju was lying on the wooden board, looked at Qi Xia with some curiosity, and asked, "Why are you used to sleeping sitting up?"

Qi Xia raised her eyebrows after hearing this, and then thought about the problem seriously: "Because sleeping while sitting will not let me enter a "relaxed" state, and can make my brain start functioning at any time. "

Ringo nodded, but seemed to have thought of something else: "Have you always slept sitting up?"

"Yes."

"Has it been like this for many years?"

Qi Xia felt that Lin Yu was very strange, so he turned to look at her: "Is this question important?"

Ringo swallowed, reorganized his words, and finally asked: "But you have a wife... Even if you two live together, do you still sleep sitting up every night?"
