What is the difference between the temperature at 12 o'clock and 1 o'clock at night?

If it's normal, I'm afraid few people can feel it.

But tonight is obviously different. The sun has long disappeared, but the burning sensation in the air seems to be warming up with the passing of each minute; To make matters worse, there has been no wind for several days. What floats outside the window is simply not air, but hot sand that is ready to pounce on your face at any time and suffocate you.

Just as someone conveyed the instructions, the outdoor units of the last small number of people in the city who did not turn on the air conditioner for various reasons also turned up in a thunderous way one after another. People who don't have air conditioning can't hold on at all. Bars, 24-hour convenience stores, company units... Where there is a trace of cool air, just drill there.

Thirty minutes later, with a slight knock, several night vision lights in the 38th floor apartment suddenly went out. The house fell into absolute darkness - the slight "buzzing" sound that had been lingering in the bedroom stopped quietly at some time.

The central air conditioner doesn't blow.

Not long after the cold air stopped, Lin Sanjiu turned over irritably in his dream. Without the 26 ° air conditioning, she soon had a sticky sweat on her body. This sweat was like an airtight cover. She was awakened by the heat in a short time.

HMM... the remote control seems to be on the bedside table

The idea flashed through her confused mind. Just about to touch it, she suddenly felt something wrong. As soon as Lin Sanjiu was excited, he immediately stopped his hand and did not move. After a while, he quietly narrowed his eyes and looked up.

A snow-white face hung directly above her face, and two black hole like eyes were staring at her in the dark.

Here we go again—— Here we go again -!

Lin Sanjiu burst out a scream in his mind, but his throat was dry, and there was no sound at all - her heartbeat was getting faster and louder - his white face listened slightly, brushed and suddenly approached Lin Sanjiu.

Two weeks ago, she woke up thirsty in the middle of the night, got up and hit this face all at once. At that time, Lin Sanjiu screamed with fright, and rolled on the light, only to find that it was Ren Nan——

Ren Nan didn't know when she sat beside her. Her face was expressionless in the dark. I don't know how long she stared at her like this - just like tonight.

At that time, Ren Nan said that he often sleepwalked since childhood.

If Lin Sanjiu didn't have doubts, maybe she really believed it. At this time, she resisted her fear, pretended not to wake up, reached out and rubbed her eyes, and asked in a trembling voice, "Ren Nan, are you sleepwalking again?"

Ren Nan's face silently cracked a smile in the dark, and her mouth was very clear: "yes, I've made an old mistake again. Didn't it scare you?"

"Yes, a little..." Lin Sanjiu almost escaped from bed and stood at the door - this illusion of being able to escape at any time calmed her down a little, and then she felt the steaming temperature in the room again.

"Why is it so hot? Did you turn off the air conditioner?"

Ren Nan didn't speak, just stretched out his hand and pulled. The heavy curtains quickly retreated towards both sides, revealing a French window. Usually, through this window, Lin Sanjiu can see the bright night scenery of half the city. But tonight, the city has lost the light that never went out before. Even the stars have wisely disappeared, and some are just dead black.

In the house with closed doors and windows, it's so hot that people can't breathe.

"The burden of electricity is too heavy. It looks like the whole city is out of power." Ren Nan's voice was still smiling, revealing a sense of good cheer. As he spoke, he stood up slowly, walked around the foot of the bed and walked towards the door step by step.

Lin Sanjiu suddenly rang the alarm bell in his head. Before he approached, he suddenly turned around and ran to the living room. In the past three months, the layout of this apartment has finally provided her with a little reward: in the dark, she still rushed smoothly into the entrance of the living room, and before she had time to breathe, she slapped her hand down the elevator button.

The expected red did not light up - such an expensive apartment, there is no backup power system?

"The backup power supply only supplies corridor lights and elevators - especially private elevators. They don't care." Behind her was the sound she had heard for half a year. Ren Nan was still so gentle, but when she enunciated, Lin Sanjiu heard a water ring. It's like... Ren Nan can't control the saliva in her mouth

In the dark, the vague outline representing Ren Nan paced closer to her and finally stopped in the middle of the living room.

Lin Sanjiu just felt dizzy in his head. Her sixth sense was right - a burst of regret filled her heart: "you... What do you want to do?"

"You are very alert," Ren Nan took a sip of water. "You should have felt it long ago? But you should still learn to listen to your intuition... Otherwise you won't come back here with me. These days, you probably have done a lot of psychological struggle... Thank you for your trust in me."

Lin Sanjiu didn't realize it, but her hands tightly clenched into fists were shaking.

"Xiaojiu, do you sweat much on such a hot day?" Ren Nan suddenly asked a word of concern.

Lin Sanjiu was stunned and subconsciously touched his arm. She only sweated a little - but - why do you ask this at this time?

Ren Nan nodded in the dark as if satisfied. "Little wine is great! It's worth it that I trained you for half a year..."

What the hell is he talking about - he can't understand a word!

Lin Sanjiu opened his mouth and wanted to say something. Only then did he find that his teeth were fighting badly. The thought that floated in her heart for several days made her ask a sentence she thought she would never say: "do you... Want to eat me?"

The dark figure gave a satisfied praise: "how sensitive this intuition is."

Lin Sanjiu was irritated by his attitude -- fear, indignation, confusion, and many emotions mixed together, and she didn't seem to be so at a loss. The next words gushed out like a tide: "don't be kidding, who are you? Why did you find me? I tell you, don't mess around, all your friends know that I live with you..."

She deliberately raised her voice, secretly hoping to be heard, and quietly touched the open kitchen on the side of the living room.

Ren Nan sighed. "At least you've been with me for six months, so I'll give you a clear death." With that, he raised his hand and gently slapped his fingers.

With a sudden "bang", a glass wall in the living room suddenly broke into thousands of pieces - with a vague scream coming from far away outside, a heat wave that Lin Sanjiu had never experienced wrapped in glass fragments and swept into the apartment. The last bit of coolness left by the central air conditioner just now was instantly swallowed away.

Why, why is it so hot? It's like someone put the whole city on the fire!

Before Lin Sanjiu could react, Ren Nan's gentle voice had sounded again: "from tonight on, this world is no longer the earth you are familiar with. In this new world, according to your measurement, it is now... Oh, 56 degrees Celsius."

Lin Sanjiu was silly. Fifty six degrees Celsius is enough for ordinary people to die of severe heatstroke and dehydration several times back and forth - together with this idea, she hurriedly touched the back of her neck. Unexpectedly, Lin Sanjiu didn't sweat much more.

"Look! I've only raised you for a few months, and you've evolved 'high temperature adaptation' and 'keen intuition'... It's really the high potential seed I saw at the first glance. If the new world hadn't come too early, I really want to raise you for two more years, and then eat..." Ren Nan's tone was a bit regrettable. He took a loud sip of water and walked towards Lin Sanjiu. "Little wine, I haven't eaten a good child with high potential for a long time."

After the glass wall broke, some glimmers of light came into the living room. With this little light, Lin Sanjiu saw Ren Nan's face at this time.

In the past, the male model's beautiful facial features have been gradually squeezed out of sight by his mouth opening wider and wider. The clear saliva was out of control and kept flowing down the corners of his mouth - at this time, Lin Sanjiu had been forced back to the corner of the kitchen.

"I, I still don't understand! What are you? Why do you want to eat me? Also, what evolution and ability - don't you want to give me a understand, tell me!"

Even if you delay for one more minute, you will have a chance! Lin Sanjiu quietly extended his hand to the knife rest on the flow table behind him.

The big mouth paused and shrunk a little, revealing some of Ren Nan's original facial features. "Alas... Why are you so stupid? Of course I'm human, and Ren Nan is my name - but I'm different from you backward species. I come from another 'new world'. Human beings who survive in the new world will evolve different abilities... The abilities I have are beyond your imagination."

Ren Nan wiped her wet chin. "I advise you to put down the knife. My eyesight is very good. Let me eat it obediently. I promise it won't hurt -"

"Fuck you!" Before he finished speaking, Lin Sanjiu, who was afraid and angry, rushed up with a sharp knife in his hand.

The silver bone removal knife was extremely fast, and pulled out a bright line in the dark - when he saw that the tip of the knife was about to plunge into Ren Nan's chest, he only took a step aside gently, and Lin Sanjiu was out of the air. She stumbled under her feet and stepped on a piece of glass. She couldn't keep her balance anymore and fell heavily to the ground.

A mouth split to two cheeks didn't give her a chance to stand up at all, and the wind hit Lin Sanjiu in general - she only turned over in time in a panic, and fiercely threw out the bone cutting knife in her hand. Ren Nan suddenly hid for a while, but she was still cut a shallow wound by a knife.

With a clatter, the knife fell in the distance.

Angry, Ren Nan pressed Lin Sanjiu on the ground, staring at her black eyes almost shrunk to the size of the tip of a needle. "Steak should look like a steak!"

In the dim light, Lin Sanjiu looked at the dark shadow in despair and rushed to his throat.
