Bella walked out of school and looked up at the sky.
Moonlight is red.
It was like a huge monster was staring at her... Should the moon be red? Why did she feel that something was wrong?
And, why go to school at night?
Just then, someone bumped her shoulder. It was Anna.
She glanced at her seatmate next to Bella and put the note into Bella's hand, "You go to the supermarket to buy some seafood and take it home. Mom will make risotto."
The tablemate clasped his hands together and said, "Bella, your mother is so kind. She cooks for you every day."
Belardo glanced at her.
Looking back, the road in front of her jumped. The thought that appeared in her mind told her that this was the road leading to the supermarket. Sure enough, after walking along this road for less than a hundred meters, she saw a double-decker supermarket.
However, there is no seafood in the supermarket.
Supermarkets in this world don’t even offer seafood.
Bella soon felt strange again. This world? Why did she always subconsciously separate the world from her own existence?
Although there was no seafood in the supermarket, the employees here heard that Bella's family was making risotto, and enthusiastically recommended to Bella their best-selling land poultry, and took Bella to a row of freezers.
Through the glass, Bella smelled the strong smell of blood.
She couldn't help but take a step back and started retching. The supermarket employee was nervous and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?"
Bella waved her hand, and the smell of blood filled her nose again. Her face turned blue and she took a few steps back.
The employee worriedly held her arm and said, "Shall I take you to the side to have a rest?"
But at this moment, he accidentally touched Bella's exposed skin outside her sleeves.
The man suddenly stopped, like a machine with the pause button pressed.
"You are not from here."
The supermarket employee who looked worried just a second ago suddenly trembled, and his expression turned into one of panic and collapse, "I want to get out of here."
What?
She grabbed Bella's sleeve, "Can you take me away?"
Bella was startled, "What are you talking about?"
"I hate it here!"
"Just let me die! Wouldn't it be better to let me die!"
"I don't want it! I don't want to stay here!"
The terrifying scream infected many people.
For a moment, the people around him also stopped what they were doing. Whether it was employees or people pushing shopping carts, they all fell into strange fear and collapse.
Dangerous emotions spread like viruses.
The peaceful supermarket suddenly turned into a sea of resentment, filled with roars and crying.
"Let me go!"
"Make me disappear!"
"Destroy me completely! I hate this place!"
Bella covered her ears and had a splitting headache. She threw away the employee's hand and tried to run out.
But in the next moment, as if the broken program was repaired, everyone returned to the original plot line.
The employee behind her regained her smile and enthusiastically recommended to her, "These land birds are all raised in captivity and are very suitable for making family risotto."
Bella was breathing unsteadily.
"Hello, this bag costs 98 yuan. How do I pay for it?"
Bella didn't buy anything and left empty-handed.
However, it was only after returning home that she realized that her mother had already cooked and the so-called "seafood risotto" was Anna's lie.
Why is this happening?
Moreover, why did Anna ask her to go to the supermarket to buy seafood that didn't exist?
She went back to her room to change clothes, her mind was in a mess, and any thoughts she had were so fast that she couldn't catch them, and they passed from her consciousness in a flash.
"Bella, Anna, come down for dinner!"
Mom has cooked the meal again.
She is a hardworking housewife.
Bella changed into her pajamas and got up from the bed, but a certain light flashed in her eyes. Following that light, Bella reached out and groped around and found a mirror.
It's very small, hidden between the window and the wall.
Don’t you have a mirror at home?
She turned the mirror, but the light in the room was too dark and she couldn't see her face clearly.
Mom said her blue eyes are beautiful.
But what was reflected in the mirror were brown eyes.
"Dong dong dong——"
There was a knock on the door suddenly.
Bella was startled and hid the mirror behind her back. The door was opened and her mother's broad body couldn't squeeze in, so she only stuck her head out.
"Baby, your sister doesn't want to go out. She refuses to have dinner. Are you having a conflict with her?"
She quickly said, "Okay, Mom, I'll go see her."
Mom stood where she was and didn't move.
He rolled his eyes and squeezed hard into the room, "Bella...what is hiding behind you?"
Bella clutched the mirror tightly, her palms slightly sweaty.
Mom still squeezed hard into the room, and the door frame squeaked under the load and was almost squeezed.
"Bella, I feel that in your hands..."
Suddenly, there was a bang and the sound of a table being pushed down in the next room. My mother paused and turned back to look next door.
Bella took the opportunity to stuff the mirror back between the seams of the bed and quickly jumped out of bed, "Mom, I'm going to check on her. You go ahead and do your work."
Mom sighed a few more times, as if feeling troubled by Anna's disobedience, holding on to the railing with several hands, and moved down the stairs bit by bit.
Bella breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know why she was afraid of her mother.
When she walked to the door of Anna's room, she had no hope because this sister didn't seem to like her very much.
She knocked on the door perfunctorily, but she didn't expect the door to open as soon as she knocked.
Bella was stunned for a moment, and before she could speak, someone pulled her into the door.
The room was dark, and there was no light on. Her mouth was covered with force, and she subconsciously wanted to break free, but she met Anna's eyes full of complex emotions.
She lowered her voice and spoke very quickly into Bella's ear, "Listen."
"Bella" opened her eyes wide and stared at her.
"We don't have much time." Anna's heart was beating like a drum, but her words were extremely clear, "I am not your sister, and your name is not Bella."
I remembered the sound of footsteps and my mother's call at the top of the stairs.
"Why don't you come out to eat? Anna?"
Anna's face was expressionless, she ignored the voice, and spoke very fast:
"Your name is Aslan, and you are a bioengineer at the Tower of Babel Biological Experimental Base. Our trip this time is to go to the Hotdam Virus Center to verify the disappearance of the dead man and the ghost ship."
"The house is alive, they will hear us and tell 'Mom', I want you to remember who you are the next time you enter this world!"
Bella moaned, obviously not believing it.
She thought her sister was crazy.
Tang Rou stared at her, "Asselan, wake up!"
Thick mist crawled in along the cracks in the glass windows, and darkness climbed to the edge of the vision.
"wake up!"
The black mist was like a rope, wrapping around Tang Rou's neck.
"wake up!"
Dong dong dong——
There was a knock on the door.
"Baby Anna, what are you telling your sister again?"
Bella turned to look at the door. The door handle was slowly turned open with an incredible force. Tang Rou darkened her face and stuffed Atherland, who was obviously not awake yet, under the bed and blocked it with her body.
Got him.
The door was pushed open, making a strange and unpleasant creaking sound.
"Anna, you are disobedient again."
Bella covered her mouth tightly and saw her mother's feet walking in.
It was red, with exposed veins, as if the skin had been torn off, revealing the bloody and ferocious soles of the feet.
"Anna, how should I punish you?"
Bella didn't dare to make any sound. The darkness was like a giant net, covering her without any gaps.
She saw Anna's feet hanging in the air, struggling and twitching, as if she had been electrocuted.
The next moment, his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.
…
When I woke up, I was attracted by the fragrance.
There was a shout outside the door.
"Bella, are you awake?"
Her head hurts.
Frowning, I got up from the bed. There was a wooden floor under my feet, which made a squeaking sound when I walked. I was wearing a white nightgown with black shoulders.
Somewhat dizzy and want to vomit.
She... who is she?
"Bella, when you hear what mommy is saying, you have to answer her."
