Chapter 352: There seems to be something missing in the air
As agreed, after taking the oxygen bottle from the doctor, Lu Qing returned the pistol to him and then prepared to leave.
After all, the oxygen cylinder has been obtained, and all that is left to do is to go back to the scientists to make a report.
As for the problems inside this train and the doctor's obviously wrong state, Lu Qing didn't want to take the risk to investigate.
She didn't want to do something that looked very dangerous at first glance. It was better to leave as soon as possible before it involved herself. Anyway, there was a high probability that this place had nothing to do with the remaining two secondary goals.
Lu Qing glanced at Dinah and found a worried look on her face.
"What's wrong with you?" Lu Qing asked softly.
"I'm a little worried about the doctor."
Dinah turned her head and looked at the door of the carriage behind her. Behind that door, there was a male corpse that the doctor called a "radio". In addition, there was also the doctor himself in a state that did not look like anything.
It looks reassuring.
"..."
Lu Qing was silent for a while, subconsciously clenched the straps on her body, and said: "There is nothing to worry about. His ability to live here for so long has nothing to do with the two of us. Even if the two of us leave, the doctor will not
Something will happen."
Her purpose in saying this was simply to get Dinah to follow her and leave here quickly. You must know that when she first entered the train, there was a cold look on her. If she continued to stay, she might
You may encounter any surprises.
Frankly speaking, Lu Qing was not very familiar with the doctor. Although the doctor's experience would make her feel some sympathy for the doctor, it was not worth risking her life to help the doctor.
And what she said was right. Whether something happened to the doctor or not had nothing to do with them. Even if they left, the doctor would not necessarily die.
"But I'm still a little worried about the doctor." Dinah said, floating next to Lu Qing.
"Dina, I know you are grateful to the doctor for never giving up on you. However, you are dead now and the doctor cannot see you. And to be honest, I feel that there is something very dangerous in this train. Continue
If we stay, we might die..."
Lu Qing tried her best to speak in a tactful tone. She didn't want to lose her ghost friend because of this incident. Compared with the doctor who was completely unfamiliar with her, Dinah spent a lot of time with her.
After hearing what Lu Qing said, Dinah stopped and said to her: "You are right, but I feel like there is something here that is attracting me. In addition, there is one thing.
I never told you..."
When Dinah said this, she paused slightly and seemed to be hesitant.
"The doctor is actually my father."
Perhaps because her father had sneak-attacked Lu Qing, Dinah was a little afraid to look at Lu Qing when she said this, but after she finished speaking, she completely relaxed.
She looked at Lu Qing and told her why she and the doctor came here.
Dinah's mother died of illness when she was very young, and Dinah's father buried her mother's body in her mother's hometown, the village.
Every subsequent year, on her mother's birthday, her father, the doctor, would bring Dinah here to visit her mother's grave.
But just this year, when Dinah and the doctor came to this village, a pure white meteorite fell in the sky. At this time, Dinah finally suffered from severe lung disease and could only rely on the doctor.
The medicines I carried with me were barely enough to support me.
Lu Qing also knew everything that happened next.
"So, I must stay here."
Perhaps because she had not seen her father for a long time, Dinah's expression looked a little sad. She forced a smile to Lu Qing and said: "Actually, I am happy to be able to see my father and know that he is still alive.
Very contented.”
"But his appearance really makes me uneasy."
After Dinah said this, she opened her arms and hugged Lu Qing. It was very cold...
"Aqing, please go back. You also said it's dangerous here, right?"
As if recalling her identity as a ghost, Dinah took two steps back in embarrassment.
“…..”
After the two stared at each other in silence for a while, Dinah floated up from the ground, turned around and moved towards the car behind her.
"Goodbye..." She smiled, then turned around and walked through the carriage door, disappearing from Lu Qing's sight.
"...."
Lu Qing opened her mouth, but the words she wanted to save still didn't come out.
What could she say, that without Dinah to lead the way, she would become a road bug due to the side effect of her poor sense of direction?
Or is it that Dinah is worried that her father's behavior is wrong and tells her not to go?
Lu Qing stood there in a daze for a while, then turned around and walked towards the iron gate at the train exit.
In fact, Dinah and she were not that familiar. To put it bluntly, they had only known each other for about a month. In reality, they were not even considered acquaintances at this level.
As for how Dinah staying by her side would help her?
Well...the ghost doesn't need to eat, won't consume her family's food, and probably has some supernatural abilities.
In addition, it can also guide her in caves or other places where Wein cannot enter, which can offset the side effects of her poor sense of direction in disguise.
I can chat with her when I'm bored...
Putting her palm on the rusty door handle, Lu Qing pressed down hard and found that the iron door was motionless and showed no sign of being opened. At the same time, the cold feeling all over her body came over her again.
body.
[Your behavior once again attracted the attention of the unknown being. Of course, it was just a gaze. For now, the other party has no idea of doing anything to you, but...
..]
[Now that we have entered the cycle, we must wait for the end of the cycle. Before that, it may be impossible to leave. 】
"Loop, impossible to leave."
Lu Qing muttered these two words, thinking deeply in her heart.
Then, she let go of the rusty door handle, with a relieved smile on her face.
"Now, I can't leave even if I want to."
Turning her head to look in the direction where Dinah had left, Lu Qing raised a smile on her lips.
I want to leave, but the owner here doesn't seem to want me to leave. I have to go through the cycle, although I don't know what the cycle is.
There is nothing that can be done about this, and besides, I will need someone to help me lead the way in the future, and Wein will certainly not be able to help me while he is flying in the sky.
Besides, although both the old man and Wein can chat, after all, one is not a human being and the other is not of the same age. It is not easy to find a common topic. In comparison, Dinah is better.
The cold feeling gradually subsided, and Lu Qing touched a dark black dagger hanging on her waist.
She found this when she was searching the village before. It has a strong sense of modern craftsmanship, and the quality is much better than the carving knife.
Perhaps because of her confidence in her own skills, Lu Qing's originally worried mood gradually calmed down the moment she touched the dagger.
It was at this time that she suddenly noticed a strange phenomenon.
There seems to be something missing in the air...
ps: I’m a little bald when writing this chapter, mainly because it took me a while to think about the dialogue. After all, I can’t write dialogue that seems annoying and also fits the personality. It’s quite difficult to achieve this.
Difficult.
However, I am quite satisfied with the final result. Hey, it is worthy of me.
