Chapter 17: Tube Building (Seventeen) Neighbors... What to Eat...
The bright moon hangs high in the sky, and its light is like water.
A wriggling black shadow poured in from the gap under the door, followed the iron bed legs, and climbed onto the warm, light-colored sheets.
Wen Yin had already fallen into a deep sleep. The dizziness and grogginess caused by the rain and fever made her unable to hear 028's reminder in time.
The black shadow struggled at the head of her bed for a long time, and finally changed from a messy strange shape to the shape of a dog.
The two dog heads tilted their heads in the dark, staring at Wen Yin curiously.
Then he licked Wen Yin's cheeks, which had turned red due to fever, one on each side.
The special touch of coldness touching heat makes the dark puppy's eyes sparkle instantly, as if it has discovered some new toy.
Wen Yin, who was sleeping, only felt something cool and rough, which kept falling on the side of her face, then moved behind her ear, and finally fell on her neck.
The dog's excited breathing sound kept hitting the eardrum, like a naughty puppy taking advantage of its owner's inattention to do something naughty.
Her skin was burning hot, and the slightly cool licking reduced the heat a little. Wen Yin frowned in a daze, turned over, and hugged the excited puppy who was making trouble beside her.
Soft arms wrapped around the puppy's dark belly. The puppy froze for a moment, then began to wag its tail wildly.
The three black tails swung wildly up and down, left and right in the air, so excited that they had no rules at all.
Wen Yin was disturbed in her sleep and hummed in dissatisfaction, then raised her leg and pressed down the puppy's tail.
It's like hugging a soft and slightly cool puppy pillow.
"Woo~"
The puppy stared at the weak human holding it in disbelief, let out a coquettish whimper, and licked the human's hot skin again.
She needed to cool down, it thought.
It had to help her.
I don’t know how long it took, but Wen Yin’s body temperature finally dropped a little in her sleep, and the annoying headache gradually subsided.
The only thing that made her a little dissatisfied was the cool pillow in her arms, which kept moving strangely.
Like a restless puppy.
Wen Yin, who was half asleep, couldn't bear it any longer and turned over to finally suppress the soft pillow.
The pillow stopped moving and she quickly fell into a deep sleep.
The room was silent. The tightly closed door made a barely perceptible sound and the door lock was gently turned.
The landlord, dressed in a black shirt, appeared at the door quietly.
The black puppy that was buried motionless in Wen Yin's neck suddenly looked up and met the scrutinizing gaze of the landlord in front of the door through the girl's soft hair.
The puppy's eyes showed a hint of retreat at first, but the next second, it stretched out its tongue provocatively and licked the corner of the sleeping person's eye affectionately, leaving an obvious wet mark.
The sleeping person was disturbed and frowned unconsciously.
He increased his strength and held the puppy tightly in his arms.
“Stop making trouble…”
The girl buried half of her face in the puppy's soft fur, and her voice was light and soft.
"Woo~"
One of the black dog's heads let out a spoiled whimper, while the other head continued to stare smugly at the man at the door.
Until the figure slowly came to the bedside, the two dog heads suddenly buried themselves in Wen Yin's arms.
Only four pitch-black eyes secretly appeared from the gap in Wen Yin's arms.
"Oh."
The man standing beside the bed sneered softly, scaring the black puppy so much that it shrank back into Wen Yin's arms.
The man leaned over and used his slender fingers to lift the black hair that fell on Wen Yin's neck. His eyes lingered on Wen Yin's bitten lips and wet earlobes for a long time before he finally spoke.
"You guys did it."
The black puppy blinked.
The man moved his fingers away and stared at the sleeping Wen Yin in the dark for a long time.
The girl obviously still had a low fever and her cheeks were flushed.
"You'll leave once the fever breaks. Do you hear me?"
The black puppy pricked up its ears in disbelief, then saw the man turn around and disappear into the silent night.
It barked softly at the man's departing back, and finally buried its head in Wen Yin's arms contentedly.
-
Wen Yin felt a little itchy on her neck.
She raised her hand in a daze and touched something furry. When she reached down, her palm felt cold and something licked her palm.
Wen Yin's nerves, which had been relaxed due to the fever, suddenly tensed up. She suddenly opened her eyelashes and met two round black eyes.
The overly thick and long eyelashes on her eyes fluttered gently twice under Wen Yin's gaze.
"Sister, are you awake?"
The young man's voice was clear and energetic. He raised his head from her neck and looked at her curiously.
He turned into a boy and was held in her arms...Awu.
Wen Yin's hazy sleepiness was completely dispelled by this sight. Her other hand, which was hidden under the thin quilt, moved and felt a delicate and smooth touch.
The person in my arms...is not wearing any clothes.
!!!
Wen Yin pushed the young man away and sat up from the bed with a shocked expression.
Her mind was still a little blank, and after a long while, she finally recalled the series of events that happened last night.
A rainy night, corpses, a small ball, and a bitten lip.
Seeing that the host's expression was not right, 028 quickly explained what happened after Wen Yin fell asleep, including the landlord's visit.
And there was Awu, who clung to her all night like a fairy sucking popularity...
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
The young man was pushed away, and the thin blanket slipped off, revealing most of his shoulders.
He leaned sideways on the headboard, blinked helplessly, and suddenly crystal mist appeared in his eyes.
"You don't like me anymore?"
"But you clearly hugged me all night..."
The tone was so aggrieved that she almost cried.
And those dark eyes filled with mist, clearly revealed the cunningness of a monster, and also carried the same... possessiveness as those two people.
It was as if he wanted to use this innocent appearance to lure her into the deepest dark desires.
After Wen Yin was shocked, she quickly calmed down and raised her hand to pull up the thin blanket that had slipped down around the boy's waist.
"Awu, answer me a few questions first."
Seeing Wen Yin pulling his thin blanket, the young man tilted his head and said innocently: "Sister, you can ask even without the blanket."
Wen Yin didn't continue listening to the young man's words. She glanced towards the window. It was already bright outside. The orange-red morning sun poured in through the glass, filling the room with warmth.
"Awu, do you know why there are so many small piles of corpses in the weeds downstairs?"
When the young man heard Wen Yin's question, he was stunned for a second, then shook his head in confusion.
"Sister, I don't know about this."
"Do you know anything else?"
Wen Yin asked again.
"Um?"
The young man hummed in confusion, his expression looking a little shy.
"I just know the smell of my sister, and I like it."
Wen Yin sighed silently in her heart, and suddenly lifted the blanket to cover the young man's face, which was staring at her with a youthful and naturally seductive look.
"What's your relationship with Xiaotuan?"
Wen Yin's voice sounded again.
"Xiaotuan and I..."
The young man's voice was a little distorted because he was covered by a thin blanket.
"Why am I related to Xiaotuan... He is human, and I am..."
"I am..." The young man paused, "I don't know what I am, but I'm not human."
After saying that, he lifted the thin blanket a little, revealing half of his head, looking aggrieved: "Sister, why do you keep asking Xiaotuan?"
Wen Yin's eyes swept across the light brown mole behind the boy's ear, and her voice softened: "So what do you remember?"
"Remember what?"
The young man's brows, which had just begun to show sharp features, knitted together slightly. Wen Yin could vaguely foresee the outstanding appearance he would have when he grew up...
When he's not smiling, he's cold and serious.
When smiling, he is gentle and profound.
Just like...
"Sister, my memory was blank before I met you..."
A young boy's voice was heard, and he moved closer to Wen Yin wrapped in a thin blanket. His expression was confused, but his eyes were fixed on the wound on Wen Yin's lips.
It seems like in the next second, it will turn into a puppy and pounce on me and lick me.
Noticing where his gaze was directed, Wen Yin pursed her lips, got up from the bed and opened the window.
It was already bright outside at this time, and the bright morning light shone directly in from the window, making Wen Yin squint her eyes.
"Now you have two choices."
Wen Yin smiled at the young man who was sitting on her bed wrapped in a thin blanket.
"Either turn into black mist and slip out from under the door, or turn into black mist and slip down the windowsill."
After he finished speaking, the young man looked at her in disbelief, as if he had really become a dog that was ruthlessly abandoned by its owner.
Seeing that Wen Yin didn't seem to be joking, he moved his shoulders covered by the thin blanket, hesitated for a few seconds, and buried his head under the blanket.
The young man said sullenly: "Okay, goodbye, sister..."
After saying this, the young man's figure changed and melted into a black shadow.
The shadow flowed down from the bed, quickly surging to Wen Yin's feet, gradually submerging Wen Yin's bare white toes.
Wen Yin took a step back and pointed at the windowsill, gently but irresistibly.
"Awu, go ahead."
The black shadow finally climbed up the wall reluctantly and surged out of the window.
When the shadow finally disappeared from sight, 028 spoke softly.
[It said it has no memory and doesn't know anything about Xiaotuan. Host, do you believe it?]
Wen Yin leaned over and took a look at the weeds downstairs. The weeds were dense and the soapberry tree was gone as usual.
There was no mud or corpses on the ground from last night, only the scent of plants and grass after a rainy night.
[Awu doesn't look like he's lying.]
She withdrew her gaze and glanced casually at a mirror on the table.
The small mirror reflected her face exposed to the morning light.
His black hair was hanging down, and his cheeks were pale and weak, which was unique to a high fever.
But a few touches of overly erosive red broke this sense of fragility.
There are red marks all over the neck and behind the ears, and dark red wounds at the corners of the mouth.
Wen Yin stared at the small figure in the mirror for a long time, and finally spoke to herself.
"The puppy gets scolded."
"The landlord showed weakness."
"So what do the neighbors eat?"
