Chain misunderstandings, absurd causes
Due to frequent contact with the alienated Xu You, I unknowingly triggered the immature rules of the post for him, and as his "guard" and "family member", I gradually saw that world.
Until one night, I saw a tabby cat squatting in front of a cheap feeder in the community.
It ate voraciously, and even I, who never had much affection for small animals, couldn't help but squat down and touch it.
When the little fat cat realized that I was touching it, it froze for a moment. After a while, it almost howled loudly around me crazily.
I thought it was just a more enthusiastic local cat and didn't think much about it, not knowing that this action meant I had slipped further into the unknown world.
In the following days, Dongzai actually followed me all the time, almost never leaving my side. He would stay at my grocery store at night, and after watching me take out the folding bed from the attic and make it up, he would curl up safely on my wall.
In my opinion, the little fat cat often hides from people and disappears, only occasionally appearing near the flower bed. Only when it finds it is me will it occasionally come out and complain about being hungry.
In fact, the timing of my being able to see it was quite erratic, becoming more pronounced the closer I got to the flower beds and the further away from my grocery store.
And Xu You, through my help, slowly recovered from his completely deformed and distorted human form and became a homeless man who could be seen and expelled.
On his way to recovery, he reconnected with his family. On the one hand, he realized that he had to go back to solve the problem, but he couldn't leave my influence for the time being. On the other hand, he also noticed that I seemed to have been involved and it would be difficult for me to return to the blind and ignorant state of safety of ordinary people. If I was left alone, I would sooner or later encounter disaster.
Then, a huge convoy began to move towards us.
At this time, I was still unaware of it, but occasionally I felt that I was more easily frightened than usual. At night, I often frightened myself because of some trivial associations.
Before Xu You left to meet his family members, he came to see me once to say goodbye.
I didn't recognize him. The afternoon drowsiness made me lazily lie on the counter, playing games on my phone.
My poor skills made me feel at a loss, but suddenly, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice gave me some advice and reached out to help me.
I breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him for saving my life.
Xu You looked at me in silence and said softly, "No, thank you for saving my life."
I didn't understand what he said and immediately immersed myself in the rare victory. I said casually, "Okay, I'll remember to repay the favor. When I fight the aliens next time, remember that his life is mine."
A few weeks later, Xu You, who was completely stable, came to my house and could be recognized and remembered normally. He said seriously that I was the young master of the Zhang family he had been looking for for a long time, and the only heir of the family, He Guang, and asked me to go with him. From now on, he would be my personal bodyguard.
"I will protect you. If necessary, my life is yours." Xu You said.
I shrank back and thought, what the hell, you're crazy. You're so stupid to tell me all this nonsense.
Get rid of him immediately.
.
"——Wait a minute." Hearing this, combined with some of the memories and questions I couldn't help but ask during the narration just now, I felt a little angry.
"So it was this bastard who screwed me, right? Where's the apology? He didn't even say thank you! For such a big thing, he should have kneeled down and kowtowed to me!"
"Kneel down." Zhang Tian said, "He put a shoe on you."
Damn, my whole body is numb and I have no words to say to such a heartless bandit.
But, after hearing this story, isn't it quite stable? How did I get attacked that day? Why did Brother Li and I tremble in the guardhouse?
"Because of the cat."
.
Yes, because of cats.
The second half of this extremely outrageous story was caused by the little fat cat who was sleeping soundly in my arms.
During that time, I was actually very busy. I protected Xu You during the day and the little fat cat sleeping at the head of the bed at night. I was working passively and completely clueless.
He only received one payment and paid for it with countless cat food.
Xu You's knowledge of the strange stories at the sentry booth was limited to the inspiration he got when things were extremely strange. The only warning he could give me was to tell me that there were a lot of dirty things in the world and to be careful of encountering evil spirits. Then he would stay in the community and stare at me from afar as much as possible, and occasionally pass by me and come over to calm himself down.
He doesn't know that there is a little fat cat following behind me every day, which even he can't see.
I could still maintain the double load, after all, Xu You had become my guard. But soon, the convoy arrived, and Zhou Tingmao, who had survived with Xu You, also arrived.
Unlike Xu You, Zhou Tingmao was able to calm himself down because he was inadvertently involved in another strange story. He had almost lost all memory of his past situation and experiences.
"Can a person live without a heart?"
Zhang Tianyi stopped telling the story and suddenly asked me.
I felt a chill run down my spine and shook my head. I didn't know.
Xu You didn't know either, so he chose to conceal it completely from Zhou Tingmao, and only revealed my arrival to his deputy, the team leader. Later, he told a few reliable guys through investigation and arranged for them to keep an eye on me all the time.
That day, Xu You and Zhou Tingmao gathered in the community. The strange talk at the sentry box was unprecedentedly touched, and they tried to completely conceive of their own birth.
At this time, there was no one to protect me.
There was only one tabby cat that vaguely sensed the crisis, but didn't know why, and was unable to communicate with me. It even almost completely disappeared from my sight that day and could not be seen by me.
In order to protect me, it instinctively kept howling and whining at me, and then bit my trouser leg. Finally, the kitten bit my ankle directly in panic.
Under other circumstances, I would have been awakened by the wound on my ankle.
But the little fat cat, which has not yet given birth, can cause me harm, but it is questionable.
There were rustling sounds in the flower bed, and a strange ghost creature was approaching me.
I always thought that the ghost thing was Xu You, but in fact it was Zhou Tingmao who lost control because of the reunion with the guard booth ghost story.
The moment he, no, it approached me, the tabby cat was finally seen by me and successfully reminded me.
At that moment, I, who was originally blindly safe, suddenly saw an unusual world, and was immediately discovered by it, which was originally blindly searching.
The more I ran away in panic with the cat in my arms, the more I came to understand it.
Until I accidentally took Brother Li and hid in the sentry box in order to protect myself.
At that moment, the "sentry box" was completely born, and its rules were fully stretched and operated.
The wound on my ankle was real, so Brother Li screamed when he saw my wound, and I only then began to feel the pain from this horrible wound. When I looked back, the blood dripping along the way emerged and existed.
As a cat, Dongzi couldn't understand why the bite he inflicted on me had gotten so serious. He just curled up beside me in fear with Brother Li.
Things were very simple afterwards.
After receiving my call for help, Xu You rushed to the sentry box.
He drove Zhou Tingmao away, took him back to the motorcade, and detained him in the monitoring room. Therefore, from then on, until that moonlit night, I never saw Zhou Tingmao again.
So, he took away the entire grocery store, emphasized again and again that I was the young master of the Zhang family, and even suddenly offered to teach me how to survive alone in the dense forest. Everything that followed developed naturally.
Until that day, Zhou Tingmao, who was actually protected in the convoy and gradually recovered, woke up.
He was unaware of the changes that had happened to him, but instead discovered me through surveillance and heard me mumbling about the homeless man. He then discovered the extremely unnatural abnormalities in the convoy, and became frightened and lay dormant. Finally, as the only "normal person" left in the convoy, he decided to ask me for help, fabricate evidence of the "homeless man", and "expose" Xu You's true identity to me.
Zhou Tingmao didn't know that my mumbling was just a result of my instinctive uneasiness as I got closer to the pit, so I kept repeating the information that made my subconscious mind aware of the abnormality.
Seeing that his companion, who had almost depended on him for survival, had finally recovered and woke up, although Xu You was careful and deliberately asked me not to contact Zhou Tingmao, he did not realize that a misunderstanding had arisen.
It was that day, because of my unexpected loss of control and the existence of the man in the wall, when I asked with a pale face to see the surveillance footage immediately, Zhou Tingmao took the opportunity to replace the guy who was originally going to see me and came to me with the videotape.
The moment I suddenly realized Xu You's abnormality, my anchor on him for more than half a year completely collapsed, and a whole chain of changes that could not be reversed occurred.
"They didn't have time to cremate Zhou Tingmao's body."
Zhang Tianyi said, "At that time, you and the entire camp had sunk into the pit, so he was immediately transformed into the ultimate mud monster."
My heart began to sink.
"So, he sneaked in among us at that time to continue hunting me?"
No, I knew it was wrong the moment the question was asked.
Because Zhou Tingmao lost control twice in front of me. The first time, he showed me the existence of the mud monster and the influence of anchoring, which prevented us from being caught off guard. The second time, he heard Yan Mo, after Yan Er had already lost control in front of us, and heard Wild Cat suspect that Gao Liu had a problem. So he showed an extremely hideous and malicious smile, unable to speak to me, but repeated, "Gao Liu jumped down."
Then he retreated into the darkness without hurting anyone.
However, the team leader told me that Zhou Tingmao attacked the teammates he sent out and bit off the throat of a fellow who came back to report the news in front of him.
"Are you sure that the person whose throat he bit off was alive, and not a monster that came back to sneak into the convoy?"
My breath hitched.
All the information was connected and finally stopped at the moment when the Matrix appeared. In order to protect me and us, Yan Mo resolutely pulled Zhou Tingmao to die together.
In a place completely out of my sight, Zhou Tingmao only left behind a laughable howl before melting.
It was the deviation of information from all sides that led to a complete tragedy, causing companions who were protecting each other to harm each other in guard posts and pits, until they died with resentment and unwillingness, hating each other.
If, if we are not lucky enough to break the cycle, what a tragic ending this would be.
"Now, they can still be saved."
I heard my brother's voice, and he seemed to smile. He looked me up and down carefully again, probably with relief: "Ranran, you've grown taller."
As if I was hit by something sharp and heavy, I stared at him suddenly.
"So you've been guarding me all this time. What are you doing? If I can't solve the puzzle, you, the older brother, will have to jump in and be a willing egg white, so that I can follow the rules of the pit and be delivered safely. Then I can survive, right? Zhang Tianyi?"
A nanny-level novice copy, it really is a nanny-level novice copy. The joke at the time that it was a prophecy came true, in contrast, it became an endless irony.
“…Of course.”
I was shaking with anger.
He sighed and rubbed his neck.
"So, I just don't like these self-admiring things of rescuing people." Muttering to himself, he swam over in the water, and when he came up, he pressed his thumb on my aorta.
“Zhang Tianyi!” My vision went dark and I immediately yelled out as a reflex, “I can’t swim! If I faint and drown, it’s your fault! I want to see how you can explain this to my parents!”
The hand stopped for a moment.
I looked at him coldly.
"I want to help." I said, "You are all a bunch of idiots. You screwed up so many things and still want to hang out with me. If you continue to hang out, I'll just jump in with you."
"Now, what is the big guy below and how to do it? If you keep a secret from me again, you will be removed from our household registration book and become my cousin."
I stared at him: "Stop talking nonsense and tell me in detail."
