... two days have passed since burns found a hand in his pocket.

In these two days, Lin Sanjiu always seemed to have a long dream. She "floated" on the back of Yiliu in the house. With him, she checked the corners of the house, kept turning on and off the TV, and observed other people's faces again and again. When she was tired, she didn't dare to sleep, and only dared to sit in the corner and nap.

Others are no better than him; Everyone's face turned pale because they couldn't rest at ease - no matter during the day or at night, two people were always arranged as "sentinels" to monitor the situation inside and outside the house. The mountains and forests outside the house have been unknowingly spreading so widely that you can't see your head. Even if you climb up the roof and look up from a distance, you can still see only endless continuous forests. The road when you came has long been swallowed up by deep green.

Of course, they are not so naive. They will think that they can come and go as they like in the copy.

Seeing burns and Cui Ning open the door with weapons and go out to patrol, Wu Yiliu relaxed a little. He lifted up the cushion of the sofa and searched carefully. He didn't miss any cracks and corners, and finally sat down carefully.

Two days ago, when burns found that his hand was being held by another living woman's hand, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly came to his senses in a surprise, desperately shaking his hand - that hand had its own life, hung tightly on his fingers, and made burns almost crazy. He waved hard in the air for several times, and finally in a wave, the woman's hand was thrown out.

The next whole night, four people were searching for the whereabouts of that hand, but they never found it. If you can't find it, you naturally can't figure out what it is; Since then, Wu Yiliu always felt that the hand might appear in any gap, causing him to check for half a day almost nervously every time he changed his position and touched something.

They all know that the copy has begun, and something is happening; But what really torments people is that none of them knows what happened.

It seemed that everything was normal again: Burns had already taken off the pullover and thrown it out of the house, and Cui Ning also stuffed his hat into the garbage can in the kitchen. They guard the inside and outside of the copy in pairs and try not to call anyone alone; They don't touch any food supplies in the wooden house. They live on their own water and dry food. Even when they go to bed at night, there is always someone watching.

... the question is, then?

I can't walk again. I don't know what to do next. I can't figure out what's wrong after analysis. I don't even know what's wrong. I can only suffer for hours and hours; On the surface, the more calm it was, the more she could feel the growing irritability and anxiety of several trapped animals in the house.

"It's too strange. I just can't figure it out." Abby came over and sat down next to Wu Yiliu. He murmured to him, "why do you want to trap us so aimlessly? After any copy runs, there should be a 'purpose'. What is the purpose? Are the other half of the people trapped like us?"

She was so annoyed that she scratched a few times in her long blond hair and complained to him, "I wouldn't have come if I knew it was so annoying."

Since the first night, the four people have split up. Burns and Cui Ning formed an alliance, and Abby and Wu Yiliu naturally joined hands; Abby is short-sighted and straightforward. She can be regarded as a reliable partner. Wu Yiliu would rather get closer to her.

"I've thought about the purpose many times."

Outside the window, burns and Cui Ning happened to walk in front of each other through the wooden corridor outside the house; Wu Yiliu subconsciously glanced at them with a residual light, just like being burned, and quickly turned his eyes. Burns' chin was about to melt and fall to his chest, and his face and corners of his eyes fell heavily together, so that all his white eyes were exposed, and he also lifted a piece of blood red under him - if that face fell again, he really didn't know what to show under his skin.

... now his illusion has spread to burns.

"What's the matter with you?" Abby noticed his shivering and asked, "since we entered the copy, don't blame me for speaking directly. I think you seem a little... Absent-minded."

She doesn't speak too directly, otherwise she might say "you don't match your reputation".

It's no wonder to her that since he entered this copy, he behaved like an ignorant novice. Even he was so confused that he didn't know what to do. It seemed that there was a storm in his mind, and any idea would be shattered - the nightmare of his birthplace, perhaps a curse he would never get rid of.

Wu Yiliu twisted his sweaty hands together, and his heart fell in his chest. He never dared to tell her the truth. I'm going to be regarded as crazy if I say it - Abby clearly saw it through the window when burns walked past just now. Since she didn't react, how can I tell the truth?

"Nothing..." he said hoarsely, "I just don't understand, just like you. Don't you wear those hiking boots?"

"How dare I," Abby shook his head, "they are things in the copy. I can't put them in the storage props, so I stuffed them into a pot and locked them in the bedroom safe."

"Pot?" Liu Yang raised his eyebrows in the room.

"Yes," Abby smiled, and the corners of his eyes narrowed out thin and short lines, Say: "I think so. If my mind is affected by the copy and I want to take out my shoes from the safe to wear them, then if something unreasonable and shouldn't have appeared there appears in front of me before I get the shoes, it may let me catch this strange feeling and get rid of the influence of the copy in time. After all, the influence of this copy doesn't seem to be so serious - when you look down and see your hand, immediately I'll wake up. "

Wu Yiliu nodded. It is worthy of being the person who analyzes and interprets the copy. Although Abby is a little naive, his mind does not turn slowly.

"But so far, I have never thought about putting on my shoes." Abby looked out of the window, lowered his voice and said, "well, take advantage of the opportunity for the two of them to go out on patrol, do you want to have a rest? I think you have a worse rest than anyone these two days... You can't go on like this, and if you can't maintain your energy, what if something happens in the copy?"

She didn't say it clearly, but her meaning was obvious. Since that night, as long as he is not blind, he can probably feel Wu Yiliu's vigilance and distrust of the other two people, and the distance he can't help but draw away from them under the fear of hallucinations again and again.

It takes a long time to patrol. In addition to checking the open space outside the house and generators, we also have to walk through the surrounding mountains and forests around the wooden house. Wu Yiliu was really sleepy and tired to the extreme. His temples jumped as if the blood under him was going to break out of his skin. He couldn't concentrate at all. It's really impossible not to rest. He sighed low when he heard the speech: "do you mind?"

Abiteng jumped up and said, "of course not. Just rest on the sofa, and I can keep an eye on you in the living room. Don't move, I'll get you a pillow and quilt."

Before Wu Yiliu said "no", she had disappeared in the bedroom. He fell back, just spit out his lips in one breath, and suddenly nervously got up, checked in the gap of the sofa cushion, and then lay back.

Abby quickly came out with something in his arms, padded him with a fluffy pillow, and spread a thin quilt on Yiliu in the room, as if he was a patient with a cold who needed to be taken care of. Although he felt that pillows and quilts were unnecessary, he couldn't help but feel warm and said "thank you" gently.

"You sleep, I'll debug the TV again," Abby said, picking up the remote control. They have tried TV several times. Every time they turn on the TV, the cartoon figure emerges as it is, motionless and unhelpful; It's just that TV is the only channel for them to understand the copy, even if there is no result, they can't help trying.

This pillow is obviously used by Abby himself. When Wu Yiliu buried his head in the pillow, it smelled like Abby; In front of his eyes, he could still see a long curled hair dyed with gold. Abby turned his back to him and adjusted the shadow of the elevator. It soon blurred in his field of vision and became a meaningless color patch. Finally, it was completely swallowed by a mass of dark sleep.

... when he slowly woke up from deep sleep, Wu Yiliu just opened his eyes and noticed that the living room was too dark to see the light of the sky, his stomach immediately tightened into a ball.

How long has he slept? Why haven't burns and trinin come back? Why did Abby let him sleep until it was dark?

He lifted the blanket and sat up from the sofa. A cold sweat seemed to be contained in his pores. Just about to come out, it subsided at the moment he saw Abby.

In a hazy darkness, a shadow curled up on the sofa. It turned out that Abby himself fell asleep, his legs curled up under him, and he was huddled in the sofa, sleeping with his mouth slightly open. He didn't look like an evolutionist, just like a little girl.

Without waking her up, Wu Yiliu just stood up quietly. The pointer on the clock was pointing to three o'clock in the afternoon, indicating that burns and trinine had gone out for less than an hour, but the room was almost completely dark; He approached the window and looked out. He found that there were dark clouds in the sky outside, and there was no sunlight.

His own shadow, like a cluster of translucent fragments, gently shook on the dark glass with the action. Through a layer of glass, you can also feel how heavy the air outside is - it seems that a storm is inevitable.

Seeing such a sky, burns and Cui Ning should be back soon.

It seemed to be the first time that the room was so quiet: two people went out and didn't come back. Abby fell asleep again. He stood alone in front of the window, and his ears were full of the silence of the outside world, which had been sunk by the storm. He listened to his breathing, Abby's breathing, and... Another low breathing close to the back of his neck.

... he finally heard it.

The attention scattered by various accidents in the wooden house, and the voice covered by fear and absentmindedness, now finally returned to his mind and ears again.

Wu Yiliu heard it. There was a subtle sound in the air behind him, as if a drop of illusion was about to fall on the nerve endings, and he was gently talking to him. The sound continues, like the buzzing of the refrigerator engine. After listening for a long time, it will disappear into consciousness.

"It's going to rain. It's very cold. Wrap the blanket around your body, wrap it tightly, wrap it, wrap it, don't take it down..."

Wu Yiliu looked at his reflection on the window glass, and his body seemed to be frozen in ice.

He clearly remembered lifting the blanket when he got up. Now the blanket was wrapped around his shoulder and stood with him in front of the dark glass where the wind and rain were coming.

No one stipulated that the fourth thing must be clothes.
