Chapter 30: The Tube Building (Thirty) Girlfriend
Shen Sinian disappeared.
The black shadows and branches surging on the bed disappeared from Wen Yin's sight.
Wen Yin was still lying on the bed with disheveled clothes, looking at the mottled ceiling, not knowing what she was thinking.
Until the cold air enveloped her thin body, causing her to shiver in damp sweat.
Wen Yin then lay back down on the bed and wrapped herself in the quilt.
I don’t know how long they tossed and turned, but the person on the bed finally stopped moving.
Wen Yin slept until noon again.
When I woke up, I just felt dry mouth and thirsty.
028 noticed Wen Yin's movement and jumped out: [Host, are you okay?]
In fact, 028 had sneaked out to take a look in the middle of the night, and it was still a little worried about its host.
After all, Shen Sinian is not a real human. What if he accidentally fails to control the severity and the host has a fragile body...
Fortunately, Wen Yin was the only one in the room, and she was sleeping soundly and looked very normal, so it sneaked back into Wen Yin's consciousness.
[I'm fine.]
Wen Yin stood up and poured herself a glass of water. When she swallowed, she found that the root of her tongue was very sour, which was obviously the result of her excessive entanglement last night.
[I'm glad the host is alright.]
028 quietly observed Wen Yin's expression and always felt that Wen Yin was a little different from usual. However, it couldn't describe what was different.
[By the way, host, I received feedback today on what you asked Ah Wu to do yesterday.]
028 had already gossiped downstairs and collected the latest information.
[how's it going. ]
After drinking a cup of warm water, the heat in Wen Yin's throat was finally moisturized and soothed. She listened carefully to the noise outside the corridor, but heard no sound.
028 excitedly began to speak: [This morning before dawn, Zhou He was called out and hurried out. It was said that her husband was found unconscious in the woods, just like Chen Si, and he had also committed suicide!]
[It is said that Zhou He and her husband originally lived in this building together, but later her husband unilaterally filed for divorce and moved out, leaving Zhou He living alone.]
[But the two have never been successful in divorcing and still maintain an on-again, off-again relationship.]
[After today's incident, not only was Zhou He frightened to the point of nearly fainting, but the outside world also began to speculate more about these two similar self-harm incidents.]
[Everyone speculated that the two men who had committed suicide at the spot where Song Wan's body was found must have had something to do with her death.]
[This caused panic in the building, and the atmosphere became even more depressing than yesterday.]
[Host, this is truly a case of evil paying off!]
Wen Yin put down the water cup: [Is there any movement from Chen Si's side?]
[There wasn't any movement from Chen Si's side, but I don't know if it was a coincidence, but the two of them were placed in the same ward.]
[Now in that ward, the two injured patients and their two family members are the four most crucial executioners in this tragedy.]
[A hospital ward, perfect for them to share their nightmare experiences.]
Wen Yin pushed open the window and called out softly, "A Wu." There was silence outside the window, with no response.
[Host, I didn't see Ah Wu, and there was no one in the room upstairs.]
[Last night...didn't they become one?]
028 asked tentatively: [If Ah Wu and the landlord were just another form separated from Shen Sinian, then after the fusion, they should have become part of Shen Sinian and would not appear separately anymore.]
Wen Yin lowered her eyes to look out the window and called out "Awu" again.
Still no movement.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, she closed the window and walked out the door.
[I still need to go see Shen Sinian.]
-
On the way to the hospital, Wen Yin heard many surrounding residents discussing the two self-harm incidents.
"You said that old man Zhang is old and doesn't live in that building, but he seems to be related to the female corpse case..."
"Yeah, Chen Si is easy to deal with. We live in the building and we see each other everywhere. But this old man..."
"Maybe it was just an accident... or maybe he was being pursued for revenge?"
"Who can say for sure? But judging by their behavior, I think they must have done something wrong. Otherwise, Old Man Zhang wouldn't have remained silent after waking up and wouldn't have dared to say anything."
"Too……"
"Hey, is there anyone else going to show up in that pit tomorrow?"
"If it shows up again, this matter will really cause a stir in the whole city."
"Who knows? Let's not get involved. Let's just wait until tomorrow."
Various subdued conversations came into Wen Yin's ears one after another, and it was not until they arrived at the hospital that Wen Yin's ears became a little quieter.
It was time for lunch again. This time, Wen Yin didn't let 028 spy on what Shen Sinian was doing. She just followed the direction from yesterday and walked towards the hospital cafeteria.
The cafeteria is always bustling and noisy at lunchtime, and some people who were leaving the cafeteria after lunch greeted Wen Yin.
"Hello! Come to have dinner with Dr. Shen!"
Wen Yin looked up and saw a medical staff member who looked familiar. She should have seen him next to Shen Sinian yesterday.
Wen Yin nodded and gave a gentle smile.
“Yes, is Dr. Shen still here?”
"Yes, over there by the window, just started eating!"
The other person also smiled at her.
"Go quickly, go quickly, you have to teach Dr. Shen a lesson, why don't you wait for your girlfriend when eating."
Wen Yin didn’t mind refutating the title, so she said goodbye politely and walked inside. Sure enough, she found Shen Sinian and Xiao Tuan who were eating happily at the dining table by the window.
Shen Sinian seemed to have noticed Wen Yin's arrival a long time ago. From where he was sitting, he could clearly see the movement outside the door.
Xiaotuan, who was concentrating on eating, didn't notice the approaching figure until Wen Yin sat down opposite them, and then Xiaotuan shouted in surprise.
"Sister, sister!"
There was a meatball stuffed in Xiaotuan's mouth, and his chubby little face was puffed up high, looking cute and smart.
"Xiaotuan, finish the food in your mouth before you talk, or you'll choke easily."
Wen Yin rubbed the small ball of soft black hair as usual, and then looked at Shen Sinian with a smile.
“Doctor Shen, I’m hungry.”
She didn't say she wanted to eat for free, she just said she was hungry.
Shen Sinian's eyes were slightly higher than hers, and he only lowered his eyes slightly to look at her.
After a long while, he finally said, "I'll get you some food," and then he got up and left his seat.
Xiao Tuanyuan's round black eyes blinked, as if he was thinking about something silently.
After Shen Sinian walked away, he swallowed the food in his mouth in a few bites and spoke with curiosity.
"Sister, are you and Uncle Shen in love?"
The smile on Wen Yin's face had not faded: "Why do you feel this way, Xiaotuan?"
Xiaotuan tilted his head, thought seriously for a while, and a soft childish voice rang out.
"Because Uncle Shen's eyes looked different before and after you came."
"Oh?" Wen Yin asked curiously, "What's the difference?"
“Uncle Shen’s eyes were originally dark.”
Xiaotuan turned his head to look at Shen Sinian who was still getting his meal, then turned his head back again.
"But after my sister appeared, I saw a twinkle in his eyes..."
Xiaotuan was looking for the most appropriate adjective, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"It's like... like stars suddenly appearing in the dark sky!"
"Sister is the star that appears in Uncle Shen's eyes!"
The little boy's eyes were round and bright, and he looked excited and happy as if he had discovered some secret.
"Sister, am I right?"
Wen Yin's expression was briefly stunned for a moment. The noisy voices in the cafeteria came from all directions. Before she could answer, the cuffs of Shen Sinian's beige windbreaker flashed past her eyes.
The dinner plate was gently placed in front of her, and a gentle voice sounded above her head.
"Eat it."
Wen Yin instinctively looked up and fell into the eyes that Xiaotuan had described, which were like stars appearing in the dark night.
When their eyes met, the flow of time seemed to slow down inexplicably.
The scene of last night's entanglement and romance flashed through Wen Yin's mind. She blinked and gave Shen Sinian a vivid smile.
“Thank you, Dr. Shen.”
After saying that, she looked at the plate in front of her and picked up the chopsticks.
"Then I won't be polite."
Shen Sinian still sat opposite her, and Xiaotuan continued to eat the unfinished rice in his bowl, but his eyes kept rolling around, moving back and forth between her and Shen Sinian.
"Why are you here?"
Shen Sinian didn't eat, just watched Wen Yin pick up her chopsticks.
Wen Yin stuffed a spicy-looking chili pepper into her mouth. She actually liked spicy food very much, but in reality, she had to avoid it because of her illness, so she could never eat her favorite food.
It was Shen Sinian who cooked for her yesterday. Probably because he saw her preferences, there were a lot more spicy things in today's dishes.
"I'm here to eat."
After taking a bite of the chili pepper, Wen Yin exhaled in an undignified manner because of the spiciness.
"Didn't you say yesterday that I could come and eat every day?"
Wen Yin's movements were too big, and Shen Sinian's eyes naturally fell on her lips that were red from the spiciness.
"But the prerequisite for eating with me every day is that you are my girlfriend."
Xiaotuan blinked his big eyes and continued to pretend to be busy eating, but his ears stood up.
"It's not impossible. After all, you have a strong learning ability. I am very satisfied with you."
After saying this, Wen Yin stuffed another piece of chili pepper into her mouth.
"Wen Yin, do you know what you are promising?"
The voice on the other end suddenly turned cold.
"I know." Wen Yin answered quickly.
The person opposite was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, the surrounding noise suddenly disappeared and you could hear a pin drop.
The only sound left was Wen Yin's thumping heartbeat.
"So what is your wish?"
Slender and cold fingers stroked Wen Yin's cheek and landed on her red lips.
"Can I make you promise to exchange with the devil?"
The burning sensation disappeared as the fingertips brushed past it. Wen Yin pursed her lips, raised her hand, and held the cold fingertips.
"My wish is simple."
Wen Yin's fingers were embedded in each other's, and their fingers were interlocked, just like the closest lovers.
"Xiao Tuan can get what she wants, and Dr. Shen can be happy every day."
"Can you help me realize my wish?"
