This is a city that looks a bit dilapidated. Not only is it not large, there are not many pedestrians on the streets.
The old asphalt roads are dirty and broken, and the buildings on both sides of the streets look quite old.
When the three of them came to this city, the first human being they met was an old woman sitting on a park chair basking in the sun. The woman was watching the three of them with wary eyes.
After all, the three people in front of me looked really strange.
Two men wearing closed protective suits and gas masks on their faces could not tell their age.
The silver-haired girl walking in the middle was dressed in ragged clothes, and the marks on it looked like it had been torn apart by some kind of terrifying creature. Combined with the blood stains on the girl's body and her limping walking posture, it would inevitably remind people of many things.
.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?"
The old woman felt that her body was not strong enough to support her in running. When she saw that the other three people were coming for her, she immediately asked loudly.
The three of them looked at each other, and Lu Qing came out, looked at the old lady and said, "We don't mean any harm, we just want to ask how to get to the police station."
"Police station?"
The wrinkles on her face were squeezed together, and the old woman's heart tightened, feeling that something was wrong.
Lu Qing knew at a glance that the old man might have misunderstood something, and quickly said: "Um, do you have a mobile phone? It's okay if you have a mobile phone. Can you lend it to us to make a call?"
"Yes, yes."
After hearing what Lu Qing said, the old lady thought for a while and took out a senior phone from her arms and handed it to Lu Qing.
"Thank you." Lu Qing thanked him.
Taking over the elderly phone, Lu Qing skillfully pressed the alarm number on it and dialed it.
The old man and the scientist came out of the forest without a penny, so they had to be taken care of by someone.
Thinking of the crashed helicopter I saw in the forest before, I figured the government must know about the forest, plus the identity the scientist mentioned on the way back.
He was actually a member of the collapse research institute that Lu Qing found underground. He was lucky enough not to die after the tunnel collapsed, so he left there.
That's why he knows about that tunnel.
With this level of identity protection, the police should not do anything to them.
After explaining on the phone that he and others came out of a dark forest, the operator immediately said that someone would be sent to them soon and asked them to stay where they were and try not to move around.
"Did you come out of that forest?" After hanging up the phone, the old woman looked at Lu Qing in surprise.
"Do you know that forest?" Lu Qing looked at the old woman in surprise and asked.
"Of course I know. I posted information about that forest a year ago. Because it cannot stop the expansion of the forest, the government has issued an emergency evacuation notice to ask people in the city to leave as soon as possible." The old lady replied to Lu Qing.
road.
"Then why are you still here?" Lu Qing looked at the old man strangely and asked.
"Haha..." The old lady smiled, shook her head and said: "As people get older, they don't want to move. Most of the people in the city have left. The only ones left here are those with me.
As old people get older, only the poor are left."
"That's right..."
Lu Qing looked at the depressed streets and finally understood the reason, but it was precisely because she knew the reason that she felt a little uncomfortable.
After a while, four police cars arrived and found Lu Qing and three others.
"Are you the survivors who escaped from the forest?" a male police officer asked, observing the three of them carefully.
"Well, we are right." Lu Qing nodded.
After finishing speaking, the old man and the scientist also took off their gas masks one after another.
"..."
After a moment of silence, the police officer showed a smile and said, "Welcome home. Since you are survivors in the forest, can you tell us in detail about the situation in the forest?"
"And how you escaped from the forest."
"No problem." Lu Qing nodded, and then said with a hint of fatigue on his face: "But before that, can you let us have a rest? We are really tired."
"Of course there is no problem." The police officer had already carefully observed the three of them, so he naturally knew their status. After hearing Lu Qing's request, he naturally agreed.
After Lu Qing and others got into the police car, the first place they went to was the hospital.
There were almost no pedestrians along the way, only a few people hiding in their houses curiously watching the police cars passing by.
After arriving at the hospital, there were not many people. I don’t know if it was because no one had taken care of it for a long time. The environment of the hospital did not look very clean. The walls were covered with grass and moss, and there were trees in the green belt.
There are tree roots growing to the ground.
After arriving here, Lu Qing seemed a little nervous. After all, this was a hospital. If a blood test or something happened, she didn't know if she would be regarded as a monster because of her physique after taking the flesh and blood potion.
Fortunately, this did not happen. The hospital only briefly checked the injuries, then treated them to a certain extent and provided them with food.
As for asking for information about the forest, that will happen tomorrow.
“It’s comfortable~”
Lying on the soft and comfortable hospital bed after eating and drinking, Lu Qing felt that her whole body had softened. If there was the only bad thing, it was the smell of disinfectant in the room.
A comfortable environment will make people gradually relax their vigilance. Lu Qing was lying on the hospital bed, her eyes gradually closing, and she was about to fall asleep.
At the same time, the surrounding space began to change, and Lu Qing, who was about to fall asleep, felt vaguely like she was back in the hut.
And just when the dream was about to end, a harsh and hoarse voice sounded from Lu Qing's ears.
"Gah! The little master is in trouble, there is something wrong with this city!"
"What's wrong!?"
Lu Qing, who was about to fall asleep, shivered when she heard Wei Yin's words. She suddenly woke up from her sleep and looked at Wei Yin.
["Oh, that's too bad." A figure hiding in the corner couldn't help but say. 】
[The girl it was looking at woke up from her sleep, making this dream that should have ended imperfectly become confusing again. 】
[Searching for the truth is everyone’s instinct, but sometimes, is the truth really satisfying? 】
The signboard trembled and a text that made Lu Qing's hair stand on end was printed.
Someone in the room is observing her?
Not a perfect ending?
What this means is that if she had just fallen asleep, although this dream would have ended, would it have been an imperfect ending?
For some reason, Lu Qing suddenly thought of a saying that is often used in games.
True ending and false ending.
"Is it the real ending..." Lu Qing glanced at Wei Yin and sat up from the hospital bed.
Maybe ending it now is a good choice, but now that she knows there is another ending, why doesn't she try it?
The guy who was secretly observing her didn't seem to want her to find out the truth, but it was precisely because of this that she wanted to know the truth even more.
She hates being observed, but since she can't find the other person, it would be nice to do something to make the other person unhappy.
ps: Please rest assured, readers, this dreamland will end in the next chapter, and it will be updated today, so you won’t have to wait too long~
