Chapter 5 Zero



"I always feel that there is some danger on Caesar's head..." Lu Mingfei looked at the two girls sticking together and couldn't help complaining.

But no one responded to his complaints.

Chu Zihang and Xia Mi looked at the scenery outside the window together. Xia Mi seemed to have told a funny joke. While talking, he burst into a bright smile. Chu Zihang still maintained his stern face, but looking at

With a girlish smile, she also slightly curved the corners of her mouth, with a gentle look between her brows and eyes.

"..."

Lu Mingfei, who was forced to stuff a mouthful of dog food, turned his head and looked for the melon-eating people who were fighting with him.

Then I saw an old Tang talking and laughing with his younger brother. This man didn't notice what Lu Mingfei was talking about at all.

"..."

Lu Mingfei.

"Brother, you are the only one here..."

Lu Mingze shook his calf and appeared opposite Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei said angrily: "Do you still need to talk about this matter?"

Lu Mingze curled his lips, but did not continue speaking.

Lu Mingfei gave the little devil a slightly strange look. Normally, this little devil shouldn't be so quiet at this time. He should at least say a word or two, right?

Lu Mingze was silent for a long time, and finally seemed to make up his mind. He raised his head and looked at Lu Mingfei with a pair of brilliant golden eyes.

"Brother...you shouldn't trust Him so much."

Lu Mingfei knew that the little devil was referring to Brother Fool, so he reached out his hand and rubbed the little devil's hair casually, and said casually.

"Didn't you watch Brother Fool's experience with me? He's just Brother Fool."

"Is what you can see necessarily the truth?"

Lu Mingze's eyes turned cold, he slapped away Lu Mingfei's restless hand on his head, and said in a cold tone.

"In the final analysis, it's just what that person showed on the screen. Even what he experienced personally may not be true, not to mention that that person was just what was shown on a fake screen!

Maybe it was just a fabrication made by that person to deceive you! He is probably lying to you!"

Lu Mingfei looked at Lu Mingze silently, and suddenly twitched the corner of his mouth:

"Then what qualifications do you have to say this? Even if Brother Fool is lying to me, what about you?"

Lu Mingze was immediately stopped by the question and looked at Lu Mingfei blankly.

"Brother...I..."

"Stop talking." Lu Mingfei waved his hand, his eyes filled with indifference.

"I know you all have been hiding something from me."

Lu Mingfei lazily supported the side of his face with one hand and said calmly, "I've always known it."

"..."

Lu Mingze just stared blankly at Lu Mingfei, who seemed a little different from usual. Suddenly he seemed to see his former brother.

I saw my brother who once ruled the world and despised all sentient beings.

Lu Mingze was not willing to believe that the Lord of Mysteries was a god, because in his mind, his brother was always the most powerful.

Although the current brother is stupid and stupid, he is still...

Lu Mingze originally thought so, but until now, he suddenly had some doubts about his original guess.

Could it be that his brother...actually knew about it all along?

So how is this possible?

If the elder brother knew about it, then he shouldn't have no reaction at all when he appeared in front of him!

Lu Mingze fell into deep self-doubt for a moment.

Lu Mingfei just looked at him silently.

At this moment, there was a strange tacit understanding between the two people.

The stalemate and awkward atmosphere between them lasted for a long time, and finally Lu Mingze spoke first.

"Brother, did you drink that cup of potion yesterday?"

"You mean Assassin's Potion?"

Lu Mingfei said.

"Of course, because Brother Fool said that if the potion is not used for a long time, it is likely to combine with the bottle and become a new sealed object."

Lu Mingfei recalled the cup of magic potion he drank yesterday, and his face turned slightly ugly. He complained: "The taste of that potion is really not that good. It feels like drinking something strange, worse than Laoshan Snake Grass Water."

It’s also weird…”

"Although I don't know clearly..." Lu Mingze hesitated for a moment, then said, "He hid a lot of things from you, one of which includes this assassin's potion."

"What's being hidden?"

"I'm not too sure either……"

"So where did you get the news?" Lu Mingfei suddenly asked.

"I have my own information channel. Brother, you don't need to know."

Lu Mingze was no longer frightened by Lu Mingfei's aura and had regained his composure.

"Now that you know, brother, I have something to hide from you. Although if possible, I would still be willing to tell brother everything. After all, in this world, the only person that brother can rely on is me. But

It's a pity...brother, you can't know the source of my information yet."

Lu Mingze said seriously, his golden eyes full of solemnity.

"I can't lose you, brother, again, and I can't take the risk of involving you, brother, in such a dangerous thing. Even if you, brother, really want to know, I won't tell you."

Lu Mingfei curled his lips and did not continue to ask.

This little devil has clearly expressed his attitude, so what he wants to ask... probably won't be able to come up with anything.

Just as difficult as Brother Fool.

The black cat's ears not far away moved, then raised its head and glared at Lu Mingfei.

…………

Lu Mingfei opened his eyes and found that the scenery in front of him had completely changed.

There was a vast expanse of white color above, below, left and right. It was a kind of paleness filled with deathly silence, like a white desert without a trace of life.

This is a white room.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The chalk on the wall is peeling off, and only a white light is illuminated every few dozen meters. These old light bulbs hiss and flicker like will-o'-the-wisps.

, each lamp can only illuminate a small section of the corridor, and you can't see your fingers between the two lamps, just alternating black and white and going into the distance.

Lu Mingfei raised his head thoughtfully and stared at the iron window of this room.

When did he fall asleep?

Lu Mingfei knew very clearly that he was in a dream now, because this was not the first time he had experienced such a refreshing dream.

Lu Mingfei looked around and spotted a black creature in a corner that was completely different from the pale ones around him. It was a black cat.

Lu Mingfei knew this cat. It was Chu Zihang's cat.

But why are you here?

Lu Mingfei suddenly realized something and twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Brother idiot?"

The black cat stretched lazily, then looked at him with a very human gaze, opened its mouth slightly, and spoke human language through the friction of the air:

"This was in a dream in your subconscious mind. Do you have any impressions?"

Lu Mingfei thought for a moment and looked at the pale surroundings. His eyes drooped slightly, but he shook his head slightly.

"I don't know. There seems to be a vague impression in my memory. But this memory seems to have been sealed. I can't remember where it is at all."

"Then take your time and watch."

The black cat walked elegantly to Lu Mingfei's feet, "Anyway, this is just your dream and it won't have any impact on you."

"makes sense……"

Before Lu Mingfei could say anything more, a figure suddenly appeared outside the small iron window.

It was a little girl with white hair.

…………

Retana walked through the corridor humming a children's song. Although the corridor was also eerie and white, she was not afraid. She grew up here.

She was wearing a white cotton nightgown and holding her cherished wombat. The wombat was a birthday gift from the doctor. She asked the first mate of the icebreaker to buy it from Moscow. It was a luxurious gift in Black Swan Port, and the icebreaker

It only comes once a year. Renata named the bear "Zorro". She knew from the book that Zorro is a masked knight and that all bad guys will tremble in fear when they hear his name.

Although Retana doesn't understand what kind of hero Zorro is, in her eyes, this white house is the whole world. And her little bear is the hero of this world.

Renata also hugs Zorro when she sleeps at night. If there are any monsters hiding in the dark that want to harm her, Zorro will kill them.

There are thick walls on the right side of the corridor, and small rooms on the left. There are 38 rooms in total. Numbers are painted in white paint on the iron doors. From No. 1 to No. 38, there is a child living in each small room. There are 38 rooms in total.

A child. Renata is number 38, the last number.

Some of the children in the room were awake, and some had fallen asleep forever.

Retana was a little bored. She made faces at the children in the room or smashed them with wall plaster. But the children didn't react at all.

She is also very aware of this matter.

Some children never wake up.

She was just smashing things for fun and was bored. She was really a little panicked. The nurses didn't know that she secretly liked to play pranks.

Those children have undergone surgery before falling asleep. Once they fall asleep, they will not wake up easily and will follow the sound of bangs.

Children who have had surgery don't need to wake up at night, but Renata hasn't had surgery, so she sometimes gets up to go to the bathroom.

The nurses were too lazy to open the door for the paper doll every time, and they were too lazy to clean up the bed where she wet herself, so sometimes they left Renata's door unlocked and she just had to get up at night and go there by herself. Sometimes she also thought about getting up in the middle of the night.

It's quite troublesome, she might as well have had surgery.

Maybe I can play with them again in my dreams.

Because it’s very troublesome to be awake, she can’t run around, and she has to go to the bathroom quickly and return quickly. If she is caught wandering around outside, she will be put in confinement or undergo surgery.

But Renata was very smart and quickly figured out the patterns of the nurses' actions. The nurses stopped doing rounds after midnight, and now they were drinking and playing cards in the duty room.

The entire floor now belongs to Renata, and she can do whatever she wants. She patrols the floor like a little queen patrolling her territory, wandering around the tool room and then the equipment room, throwing walls and teasing the sleeping children.

, and then go to the air outlet of the heating pipe to blow warm air.

I stopped. If I walked further, I would reach the end. There was a lone iron door with a huge "zero" written in red paint on it.

Room zero.

There are a total of 39 small rooms on this floor, but the order is only up to Renata's room 38, and the extra room is room zero.

There are only 38 children in this group, and there may be a child living in room zero, but he has never shown up, never gone out with Renata and the others, and does not eat in the cafeteria.

So room zero should be an empty room.

Some bold children took a look inside and said that it was a terrible solitary room with something like a torture rack in it. Some children said that there were actually two children locked up there, and they had faintly heard their quarreling sounds. In short, nothing happened.

Room No. 0 is a mystery. When the nurses scare the children, they say: "The things in Room 0 will eat you!"

According to Chinese Feng Shui, the room at the end of the corridor is a gathering place for all unclean things and will breed terrible things.

Renata didn't know this, she just instinctively resisted Room Zero. She had been to all other areas on this floor except Room Zero.

A dim gas lamp hung in front of the iron door. There was no wind, but the flame was swaying on its own.

She could see vague shadows in the white room.

It was not that of a child, and it was a little taller.

Seems like an adult.

But why are there adults here?

In Retana's world, apart from the nurse, the only adults in this white room are doctors and others.

Then Retana stopped in the room, and there were some sounds, as if someone was talking inside.

Curiosity drove Retana to poke her head out of the small window and directly look at Lu Mingfei who was looking out.

"zero?!"

Lu Mingfei looked at the little girl in surprise.

Although this little girl looks very young, her delicate appearance and familiar facial features... isn't this the girl named Ling who sat next to him when he took the exam?

But why does zero appear here?

Lu Mingfei still vaguely remembered that this girl's life background seemed not simple. She seemed to be a princess of a certain royal family. Moreover, her cold and noble temperament could not be cultivated simply.

But why did Zero appear outside this small and strange room?

This is definitely not the inside of a castle.

and……

This is the depth of his memory. Why is there zero in his memory?

"zero?"

At first, Leitana was really frightened by Lu Mingfei.

But after hearing Lu Mingfei's words, Retana blinked and raised her head with some confusion to stare at the sign of this room. It was Zero.

Could it be that the people inside are talking about the name of this room?
