1559 Qiao Yuansi Looks Like It Won't Live But The First Day
"My world...has ended?" Qiao Yuansi turned his head and murmured as he looked at the cars still roaring past on the highway.
At least what she saw was not even remotely similar to the end-of-life scenes depicted in movies or novels: traffic rules still govern the road, and the display screen ahead to detect vehicle speed is also working as usual, indicating that the power system is intact.
; There was no fire, no smoke, no ambulance sirens, and no calls for help.
"It's a bit different," the young man followed her gaze and obviously thought of the same place, and said, "I thought I was lucky at first. I could randomly teleport into a place six months before the end of the world.
What about the world?"
This sentence itself was enough to generate a hundred more questions; but Qiao Yuansi bit his lip and didn't ask any of them. The young man outside the car laughed when he saw this and said: "Forget it, I don't have to."
It’s your duty to convince you. Shapeshifters are everywhere. When you see them again, remember to pretend you can’t see them. I’m leaving. I wish you well——”
When he said this, he stood up straight from outside the car. Qiao Yuansi reacted suddenly, quickly unlocked the car, and shouted out the window: "Get in the car!"
The young man paused and bent down again. His clear eyes widened slightly in confusion, making him look a bit like a small animal.
"...Aren't you afraid that I'm a lunatic?"
"You knocked down a policeman. You can't continue to hang around outside." Qiao Yuansi looked up at the rearview mirror, stretched out his arm to open the passenger door for him, and urged: "Come up quickly, I'm afraid
Others have noticed us."
The young man seemed not to have expected her to have such an attitude and laughed. Qiao Yuansi became a little anxious when he saw him not moving. He spoke faster and said: "Whether it's the end of the world or not, social rules are obviously still the same."
It's still working, you saved me, I can't let you get caught for this. Can you get in the car quickly?"
"Okay, okay, got it,"
The young man still had a half-smile on his lips and cheeks, as if he didn't think her worry was serious at all. He walked around the front of the car and opened the passenger door. As soon as the door opened, the sea breeze outside the car suddenly blew.
He jumped in and fell into the seat together with his body, seeming to have brought in a part of the salty, blue, and free sea.
Qiao Yuansi was startled for a moment, then looked back and started the car again.
She looked around - outside, the patrolman was still lying face down on the ground. He hadn't woken up from his coma, and she couldn't see what his face looked like now. She didn't dare to think too much, walked around the patrolman,
I quickly got back on the road, constantly glancing at the rearview mirror as I drove, for fear of seeing a police car chasing after me.
"I'm a little worried, maybe a passing car has already called the police," she felt the young man glance at her several times and explained to herself. "We didn't delay for a long time, right? It only takes a few words.
, it should be less than two minutes."
"Aren't you worried about the end of the world and shape-shifters, instead of worrying about this?" The young man in Yu Guang looked a little bit amused.
"It's precisely because of what you said to me that I'm even more worried." Qiao Yuansi accelerated his speed, leaving several cars behind him, and said, "If this place is still the same as before, then even if
It’s not a big deal if you are arrested. I can prove that you are trying to save me, you can find a defense lawyer, you can even pay money for bail... everything can be done according to normal procedures, and there will be no personal harm to you."
However, this world is obviously no longer the same. Transformers are everywhere, and it is impossible for only one law enforcement officer to become the so-called "fallen species"; when the other transformers realize the real reason why the patrolman was attacked, normal
The legal process cannot protect him.
The young man also understood what she meant, but seemed a little surprised. He said "Oh" and was quiet for a while before saying: "...So you believe me so quickly?"
Qiao Yuansi is a person who has been trained in scientific thinking, which makes her less likely to resist denial rashly when faced with unknown things. But she glanced at the young man in the passenger seat and said: "I don't know yet.
would come to this conclusion."
He didn't seem to care whether she believed in him or not. He shrugged and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm not in a hurry. My name is Sakura Mizugan, what's yours?"
Call it strange, but if you consider that this is the name of a person from another world, it doesn't seem strange at all - after all, she can't even tell what race the other person is.
Qiao Yuansi reported his name and asked him to explain all the reasons from the beginning: what is going on in the apocalyptic world, what the fallen species are, and who he is. After this narration, the amount of information is quite large.
It's not easy to be clear and comprehensive, but Sakura Mizugan did it in just a few words.
Although he explained clearly, Qiao Yuanji didn't dare to say how much he truly accepted and believed. She just listened attentively while driving. As she listened, she turned her eyes and found that Ying Shui'an was actually facing her cheek.
A hand reached up.
Qiao Yuansi was so surprised that he almost crashed the entire car into the lane next to him and shouted: "What are you doing?"
Ying Shui'an was also startled by her: "I just looked at your face——"
"Then what are you doing?" Qiao Yuansi was frightened ever since he was caught by the patrolman.
Ying Shuigan pointed to her cheek and said, "I told you not to be afraid. The area on your face where you were scratched has been red and getting redder and redder."
When Qiao Yuansi finally got off the highway and found a chance to look at her face carefully, she turned the mirror down and was shocked: several thick blood-red scratches crisscrossed across her cheeks, from the corners of her eyes.
It extended to the chin; even though nearly half an hour had passed, the color was not lighter, but getting darker and darker, almost purple, and even blood spots appeared around the scratches. At a glance, it was shocking.
"When he scratched my face, he used very strong force. One finger dug into the corner of my eye, as if he wanted to pick off my face." She parked the car on the side of the road and murmured: "It's just that the skin is not there.
Damn, I didn’t expect it to happen..."
Ying Shui'an waved to her, motioning for her to put her face over.
Qiao Yuansi looked at him and hesitated for a moment, bit his lip and turned his head towards him.
Sakura Mizugan came closer, her face was slightly warmed by his breath; as soon as she met the other person's eyes, she slightly turned her gaze away - his slightly blue eyes were soaked in the cold white.
There, when her face was expressionless, it seemed to be carrying the oppressive coldness of the mountain snowfield. Although it was clear and clear, it made people dare not look more. In the indescribable nervousness, she clutched the fabric of her pants and waited for a moment.
He pressed his cheek with warm fingers.
However, he did not touch her face. From the corner of her eye, she could see Sakura Shuigan's hand that was about to be raised suddenly put down again. After staring at her for a while, his brows became more and more frowned, and his expression became more and more grim.
The more serious it is.
Qiao Yuansi's palms were filled with cold sweat. He finally couldn't help but sit up straight. He turned to him and asked, "What's wrong with me?"
Ying Shui'an looked at her fingers that had not touched her, and twisted her fingertips a few times, as if she wanted to shake off the non-existent dust on her fingers.
"How far is it from your home?" He turned away and said, "I think it's best for you to go back now."
... Judging from his tone, he almost said, "Eat something good now."
Qiao Yuansi took a shaky breath, feeling that her hands and feet were cold, and she didn't know how to start the car again. She did not go back to the highway, but drove forward along the city streets; after walking for a while, she broke the car
Jing Jing: "You can just say it, I can bear it."
Sakura Mizugan glanced at her. "Well, you should be about to become a fallen species."
Too straight.
Qiao Yuansi gripped the steering wheel so tightly that his joints turned white. "Please tell me in detail...how do you know?"
"The doomsday world, as the name suggests, is generally a human society that has been destroyed. Most of the human beings are buried together, and only a small part can survive. Among this small part, some develop into fallen species, and some develop into
Evolutionaries - but this is obviously not the case in this world."
Sakura Mizugan spoke slowly on purpose, and Qiao Yuanji realized it. She was very grateful, because even describing her current state as "Liu Shen Wuzhu" was too optimistic; having someone beside her talking eloquently was like being in a state of uncertainty and chaos.
It provided her with a sense of order - like falling into a fast-moving river but grabbing a rope.
"I don't know why, but everything in this world is running normally, and there are very few dead people, but the degenerate ones with deformed faces account for the vast majority of the population. So I have been secretly observing them in the past few days."
When he mentioned shapeshifters, he used "them" instead of "them" - when talking about the fallen species in other worlds, Sakuramizugan used "them". Qiao Yuanji didn't know what this difference meant.
, but she silently made a note in her mind.
"I found that if you are a normal person and your face does not deform, then you have two possibilities, either you can see their deformation, or you cannot see their deformation. For normal people who cannot see it, the degenerate species
They will not trouble them at all, and will continue to work and live around normal people as before... Because as time goes by, those normal people who cannot see the deformation will naturally begin to gradually become deformed, just like
It's like it's been influenced subtly. I can't say exactly how long this time lasted, because I've only been here four days. When I came, the few examples I observed were probably already in the process of deformation.
.”
Qiao Yuansi breathed out and fixed his eyes on the road ahead. The light turned green, and a little girl in school uniform put ice cream into her mouth while crossing the zebra crossing. Every time she opened her mouth, her face disappeared.
In the black hole of the mouth, close the mouth, and the facial features are squeezed together and slowly fall back to their original places.
"If you can see it and let them know that you can see the deformation, it will be terrible." Sakura Mizugan was also looking at the little girl, and said softly without changing his expression: "Have a pair of abnormal ones."
The ability to identify itself means that you can no longer naturally transform into one of them. The primary goal of the fallen species seems to be to turn more people into their companions. When this cannot be guaranteed,
They are the ones who will kill people. When the patrolman scratched your face, he must have used some method to infect you with this deformation like a virus."
