"I'll kill you shameless bunch! I'm in the car, in the car... turning on the air conditioner, making us suffer! Huh?"
Accompanied by a dull bang on the car door, an inarticulate roar suddenly sounded from the street - Lin Sanjiu frightened the black figure and suddenly lost her direction. She hurriedly stepped on the brake to the bottom
, the car made an unpleasant squeaking sound, but at least it did not hit the guardrail on the roadside.
Looking back, it turned out to be a shirtless man, dripping with sweat. He was grabbing a few bricks and throwing them at the red Mazda crazily. While smashing them, he was cursing: "You, you are not a good person."
...Get out of here, get out of here..." Before he could finish his sentence, he fell back and fainted.
Obviously, he had suffered a disaster just now.
Taking a breath, Lin Sanjiu looked away from the rearview mirror, still a little frightened. Crazy mania, coma, and sometimes hallucinations are all signs of severe dehydration in extremely high temperatures——
She took a deep breath, accelerated her steps, and drove straight to the community where Zhu Mei lived.
She had been to Zhu Mei's house many times - twenty minutes later, when the car headlights shone on the words "Invalid Army Community", Lin Sanjiu slowly stopped the car and turned off the engine. She took off the key.
She put on her bag, turned on the flashlight, and walked towards the gate of the community.
The location of the community is a bit remote, and there are usually no people nearby. At this time, it was as quiet as a dead city. However, just when he was about to reach the big iron gate, Lin Sanjiu suddenly felt a tremor in his heart and stopped.
She looked around and found nothing out of the ordinary - she waited cautiously for another two minutes, and then breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that nothing was out of the ordinary.
It seems that this "keen intuition" is not 100% accurate.
Rongjun Community is an old building from the 1990s. Like all old buildings, there is a guard station at the entrance of the community. Because this area is not very safe, the iron gate is closed after 12 o'clock in the evening.
Lock. But if someone comes back late at night, just knock on the iron door, and the security guard on duty at the door guard will open the door with the key.
Looking at the watch, it was exactly 2:30 in the morning. Lin Sanjiu stepped forward and shook the tightly locked iron door. The heavy brass lock clanged against the iron door - the sound was extraordinary.
The harshness gradually disappeared after a while. However, the surroundings were still quiet, without any human presence.
"Brother Security, are you here? I'm here to find someone in Unit 2. Please open the door for me!" Her clear voice carried far in the quiet night. But regardless of how much hope Lin Sanjiu's voice contained,
There was still no reply from the guard room.
Sighing, this was expected. Lin Sanjiu raised his head and looked at the iron bars above the iron gate to prevent climbing, and his head began to hurt - don't look at the old community, the iron gate is
Recently renovated, it is solid and leaves no room for chance.
Lin Sanjiu hesitated and put his hand on the iron door.
"keep it!"
As she whispered, the white light once again lit up in her palm. But this time, the white light seemed to be a little powerless. It flashed several times in her palm. The iron door remained the same. This was the first time Lin Sanjiu tried to transform.
Such a big, heavy thing - she felt her heartbeat gradually speeding up, gradually becoming out of breath, and her muscles began to ache -
Feeling as if there were thousands of kilograms of iron falling on her body, Lin Sanjiu's arms began to tremble. Just when she was about to lose support and give up, she didn't know which white light was accompanied by "pop"
"The sound went out.
The iron gate disappeared and turned into a card that fell to the ground. Two iron gates were randomly drawn on the kindergarten-level crayon drawing, and in the lower corner of the card was written:
【iron gate】
The two iron gates installed in Rongjun Community in 2012 have no advantages except that they are heavy.
Function: Nothing special, it cannot stand up when it is not installed in the wall.
...Lin Sanjiu was almost used to this kind of useless bad card. She put it in her pocket and hurriedly ran towards Building 2 where Zhu Mei lived.
The guard room behind him was still quiet and dark.
When Lin Sanjiu stood in front of the door of Room 401, she was already panting like a cow. The move to close the iron door just now took a lot of energy from her, and she climbed up to the fourth floor in one breath just now.
At this moment, Lin Sanjiu felt that her voice was trembling: "Zhu, Zhu Mei! Are you there...Open the door, I am Xiaojiu!"
Room 401 was also quiet. Lin Sanjiu's heart suddenly sank into her stomach - if Zhu Mei fainted in the room, she really didn't know what to do. Since 12 o'clock tonight, she has
Three things have been transformed: Ren Nan's body, hair, and iron gate. Today there is only one spot left, but Zhu Mei's house has two gates!
Lin Sanjiu yelled unwillingly and banged on the door, feeling very anxious. - She had noticed when she got out of the car just now that the temperature seemed to be rising continuously. From the irritating feeling in her body
To judge, the temperature at this moment is definitely more than 56°. Can Zhu Mei, an ordinary person, survive it...
After shouting for a while, Lin Sanjiu felt smoke rising from her throat, and had to stop and drink some water. She put the water bottle back in her bag, and when she was about to raise her hand and knock on the door again, there was a sudden creak, Room 401
The entrance door was opened a crack.
"Zhu Mei, how are you-" Lin Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly looked over with a flashlight.
However, the person who opened the door was not Zhu Mei, but a middle-aged woman in her fifties with an oval face. The woman was suddenly illuminated by the bright light and hurriedly blocked it with her hands - but even for such a moment, it was enough
Lin Sanjiu saw clearly.
With a "pop" sound, Lin Sanjiu's cell phone fell to the ground.
She stared intently at the half of her face exposed through the crack in the door. It took her a while to react, and she hurriedly touched her phone. The trembling flashlight light once again hit the door, and Lin Sanjiu finally found her phone.
Voice: "...Mom?"
She felt that her mind was turning into a mess. "Mom, why are you...why are you here? Are you okay...? What on earth is going on?"
The middle-aged woman was almost in tears. She hurriedly opened the door and said, "Come in, come in! It's great that you are okay! Mom is worried to death..."
Lin Sanjiu was pulled in by her in a daze and stopped in the foyer. She had so many thoughts swirling in her mind, but she just didn't know what to say. While she was stunned, Lin Sanjiu glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw herself.
Next to it is a waist-high white shoe cabinet - she is very familiar with this shoe cabinet, it was she who bought it together with Zhu Mei.
A question blurted out instantly: "Mom, why are you at Zhu Mei's house? Where is Zhu Mei?"
Mother Lin wiped away her tears, pulled up a chair, and motioned for Lin Sanjiu to come in and sit down. After seeing her sit down, she choked and said: "...ever since the weather became so unusual, I have been
I'm worried that you're worried to death. I heard tonight that the power grid here was down, so I came over quickly... I couldn't get through when I called you, so I had to come to Zhu Mei first to see if I could wait for you. But... Zhu Mei looks like
It’s no longer possible…”
Mother Lin sobbed a few times and said, "She is a good child... I know you have a good relationship, so don't be too sad."
Lin Sanjiu sat still and remained silent for a while, then turned off the flashlight on her phone. The room fell into darkness again.
"I was mentally prepared on the way here... There is nothing God can do to take her away. Fortunately, nothing has happened to you, Mom. This is better than anything else..." Lin Sanjiu murmured in the darkness.
Let's talk.
Mother Lin knew that her daughter couldn't see, but she still nodded. She wiped her face and said with a smile: "Your dad is fine too. He is resting in the room. I will call him right now -" After that, she turned and left.
.
"I'll go too—" Lin Sanjiu quickly stood up.
Mother Lin nodded as she walked and reached out to push the bedroom door: "Hello..."
As soon as she started talking, she heard a strong gust of wind coming from behind her head. Mother Lin was caught off guard, and she was hit hard on the head with a "bang" sound. She immediately went limp and fell to the ground, revealing Lin Sanjiu's face behind her.
Body shape.
Lin Sanjiu's arms holding the chair high could barely hold it up, so she quickly put the chair down - but after putting the chair down, she didn't let go of her hand. Instead, she held the handle of the chair tightly, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Staring in the direction of the bedroom. For a moment, the only sound in the quiet room was her own heavy breathing.
Immediately afterwards, footsteps sounded from behind the bedroom door, and then with a sudden jerk, the bedroom door was opened. A tall man with broad shoulders stood at the door, staring at the scene in front of him in shock and anger - by
With a little bit of light outside, I could barely see that he had a cool look that resembled that of Lin Sanjiu.
"What are you doing?! That's your mother!" he roared angrily.
The face opposite him that looked very similar to him had a cold expression at the moment.
"I hope she is my mother more than you do." Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath and felt that the muscles in her arms and thighs were jumping due to fatigue. "My parents died in a car accident ten years ago.
From identifying the body to burying it, I did it all by myself...Who are you two? Where is my friend?"
