Chapter 356 The Emperor
It was another full moon night, the arctic poppies were bathed in moonlight, and the white snow falling profusely was like a letter written by the arctic to the black swan port. , When it is so cold to the bone, you can feel some warmth again.

Moonlight and snowflakes drifted from the window into the corridor where the chalk flakes were peeling off, and the white lights made a hissing sound, hanging on the wall one after another, like the moon in the underworld, one round after another, two lights You can't see your fingers between the lamps. Every time you walk into the darkness, it is a challenge to your courage. Like Orpheus walking blindfolded in hell, he dare not feel timid in his heart. Once he turns around, he will fall into the darkness.

Renata is wearing a white cotton pajamas and walking on this road with the bear 'Zorro' in her arms. She is not afraid of the alternating black and white shadows in the corridor, because she has been walking this road for nearly five or six years, and every night Go because she wakes up every night or she wets the bed.Once she wets the bed, she will be locked up by the head nurse, and the worst thing is that she will be forced to wear a small yellow flower, so that every child knows that she wet the bed again last night, and will spare no effort to laugh at her and make her cry.

Renata has always felt that she is special, and this kind of pretentious feeling should not appear in any child, but she is an exception, because she is the only girl in Black Swan Harbor who has not had surgery. The children of 'Arabs' (meaning gauze wrapped around the head after surgery) can stay awake at night, so among the 38 children in Black Swan Harbor, only Renata can wet the bed!She also occasionally had fun with the other kids who laughed at her for peeing at her age, but they couldn't even wet the bed if they wanted to.

Every time Renata bed-wetting head nurse would be furious and had to clean up the stinky bed herself. After a long time, when she found that the confinement and Dai Xiaohuang could not prevent the paper doll from wetting the bed, she simply stopped locking Room 38 at night. The door is closed, and Renata who lives inside is allowed to get up at night and come out at night to solve her internal emergencies.

What a great privilege, that's why Renata thinks she is special, 38 rooms are arranged from left to right, 38 children from Black Swan Harbor live in it, no one can be special, time As soon as you arrive, you have to go to bed. The head nurse will ring the bell along the corridor on time at eleven o'clock every night. Every child in the room will be sleepy with their eyelids closed by the sleepiness brought by the bell. In the morning, the head nurse's bell will wake them up again, and there will be no dreams or disturbances during this period.

Only Renata, she had no surgery, so the bell had no effect on her, as did the sound of the doctor's clapper. Other children would sound like epileptic tremors, but she only felt that the sound was monotonous and boring.At night, the reason for waking up at night is to patrol the entire corridor like a queen patrolling her territory. It is her greatest pleasure to step on every territory of her day, which makes her truly feel her uniqueness and extraordinaryness.

In the corridor, Renata stopped in her tracks. She stood in front of room No. 12 in the corridor, and looked inside. On the bed inside was Zhulova, the third most beautiful girl in the Golden Triangle, Like Khorkina, she can dance ballet, and her singing voice is the best among children, and she starts every Christmas chorus.

Looking past Zhulova, Renata glanced carefully at Room 12 again, except for the blind spots that couldn't be seen, even in the shadows, she carefully squinted and observed again. After not finding what he wanted, he left from the door of the room and walked to the next room, No. 13.

Yes, she has done this 12 times, and now it's the 13th time, there are 38 kids, 38 rooms in Black Swan Harbor, and she has to do it for the 38th time tonight (including her own room ), she tries to find someone, a girl who should not exist in Black Swan Harbor, and this girl's name is "Elena".

"You ask me if I know Yelena? Are you kidding me? Is there anyone in Black Swan Harbor who doesn't know Yelena? Even the soldiers guarding the gate know her!" During the day, this is Renata asking Ann Answers Dong received after asking questions about this "Elena".

She also asked many people, and when these people answered her, they all raised their eyebrows and looked at her like a fool or a lunatic.

"What kind of trick is this? You have a conflict with Yelena? Hey, it's not me, I advise you to apologize to Yelena as soon as possible. She is No.1 in popularity among boys, so it's inevitable. Defective fools will come to your troubles to make Yelena happy."

"My impression of Yelena? Why do you suddenly ask this, I thought you didn't care about anyone, Renata. Yelena is a very nice and attractive girl, she is from our Black Swan Harbor No one is the most popular child! Everyone likes her! No one doesn't like her!"

"She can play the piano, she can play the balalaika, she plays the accompaniment of the Christmas chorus"

"She can dance, especially ballet. Khorkina often asks her for tips on how to exert strength and how to expand her expressiveness when dancing. At Christmas, she is the center of the dance floor! Even the doctor praised that if she was a few years younger At the age of ten, I will definitely ask her to dance."

"Her grades are very good, she is the smartest of all children, and she is among the best in every test. The doctor praised her and said that if there is a chance to send any child to study in Moscow in the future, she must be the first choice!"

"She's beautiful, the prettiest of the girls."

"She is good at sports and can arm-wrestle with boys."

"She never wets the bed"

"Her breasts are the most developed. Don't ask me why I know, this is judged by the boys!"

Renata asked almost everyone, pieced together the fragments of news about this Yelena, and got a shining, perfect girl like the darling of the spotlight, if the black swan hid There is a pearl, and that must be Yelena!
She simply wrote a strong stroke for the lives of the children in Black Swan Harbor, taught all the boys what is liking and what is secret love, and taught all the girls what is sexy and what is beautiful.This kind of person is born to be the eye of the typhoon in every place, attracting a lot of attention, however... However, Renata didn't even know who she was before today!
If someone else came, under the impact of this information, she probably felt that there must be something wrong with her brain, and she selectively forgot some memories, but Renata was different. She was a stubborn child. It can be seen that she can't hold back a drop of tears. She has never compromised under the physical injury, and she never thinks that the mental injury is her own problem.

Moreover, before going to bed tonight, Renata also thought of one of the most critical points, which is the possibility of being crazy if she can overturn it in one fell swoop, that is, there are 38 children in Black Swan Harbor, each of which has its own independent rooms, and each child is numbered, like Renata, who is number 38 and lives in room 38 at the end of the corridor—but what about Elena?What's Yelena's number?If Yelena is No. 39, then Black Swan Harbor should have an extra room No. 39!But the last room on this corridor still belongs to Renata's No. 38!
It's just a pity that Renata only thought of this huge key loophole at night. She was lying on the bed staring at the ceiling so uncomfortable that she couldn't sleep. Suddenly, her brain was overwhelmed by the problem, and finally she couldn't sleep. Put on Xie ran into the corridor with the bear puppet in his arms, ready to check in turn whether there is an extra room in this corridor, or if there is an extra person sleeping in any room!

It's about three o'clock in the morning now, the head nurse has already rested, and the night watch nurses should also gather in the dining room to play cards and chat. They patrol every hour, and they only passed by 10 minutes ago. At that time, Renata She is pretending to be asleep, which means that she now has enough time to check all the rooms in the entire corridor before the next patrol arrives.

If there is no trace of Yelena's existence, then tomorrow morning, she will call all the children to talk about it. After yesterday's noon, some people have whispered whether there is something wrong with her head, and even considered talking to Dr. Reporting this matter, the worst case scenario is that she may actually be dragged to surgery because she doesn't know this non-existent Yelena!
It took half an hour for Renata to go through the 38 rooms from beginning to end. She remembered every child in her heart. Except for the empty rooms of the three deceased children, there were no more than one of the other 34 children. Not less, so there is no situation where Yelena suddenly replaced a certain child. After checking the last room of Yake's No. 1, she retracted her head and let out a long sigh of relief.

Sure enough, it wasn't that she was crazy, but that the entire Black Swan Harbor children were crazy!There's never been a Yelena here, and this girl never had one
"Nothing?" Behind Renata, the girl asked abruptly, her voice was as cold as snow, licking the base of Renata's ears and crawling down her neck to the back of her collar, layers of goose bumps appeared.

Renata almost jumped up, and immediately covered her mouth to avoid screaming and attracting nurses, she suddenly jumped to the side, her feet slipped and fell to the ground, rolling on the spot After two laps, she crawled back on hands and feet trying to stand up, and looked up in horror at the blonde girl standing behind her in front of Room 1 just now.

"Good evening, Renata." Yelena straightened up slowly with her hands on her waist, and turned to look at the paper doll on the ground. I was immediately lifted up to block her gaze.

"Can you explain why you are here?" Yelena tilted her head and looked at Renata on the ground.

"Who the hell are you? I've checked, none of the 38 rooms belong to you at all! What the hell are you!" Renata's heart was actually half cold, and at this time, she met this unidentified person. Guy, if the other party is really a man-eating monster in a horror story, wouldn't she have to be swallowed to the bone today?

"You didn't sleep at night, and you sneaked into the corridor just to investigate this matter?" Yelena burst out laughing.

"Don't make excuses." Renata looked up at the blond girl, the moonlight outside the window shone on the girl's white padded clothes, showing her good figure with bumps and bumps even though there was an age limit, she was dumbfounded at first glance But I came back to my senses under the interesting gaze of the other party, and couldn't help but say, "There is no place for you here, who are you and what have you done to everyone?"

"What gave you the wrong judgment that if you live in Black Swan Harbor, you must have your own room in this corridor?" Yelena scratched her soft blond hair and asked, "The new one today looks Doesn’t the little boy who is not very smart never have his own room? He has lived in Black Swan Harbor since he was a child.”

".?" Renata was stunned by this rhetorical question, not knowing how to refute.

"And who said I don't have a room of my own? Otherwise, where would I sleep? Do you really think I'm a Snow Maiden? You can live in a igloo by building a igloo with snow outside. I'm not an Eskimo, and I don't know how to make an igloo. " Yelena spread her hands and looked at Renata on the ground, "And, the ground is very cold, if you don't want to catch a cold, get up quickly. Forget it, just to be on the safe side, why don't you go to my room for a drink?"

"Go to your room for a drink?" Renata's face was a little stiff, thinking that this set of rhetoric was a lie by the big bad wolf to trick Little Red Riding Hood into the wolf's lair.

"My room is quite big, much better than your small crappy house, do you want to come?" Yelena didn't care about Renata's reaction, and walked past her directly, walking into the darkness with white lights.

Renata got up and glanced at her back, a little hesitant, but she vaguely realized that if she wanted to find out Yelena's true identity, this might be the best chance.Although the other party is mysterious and uncertain, I don't know whether it is good or bad, but at least she didn't hurt her when she appeared from behind her just now. If it is a horror story, she should have been killed by the other party just now, right?
But now Yelena didn't show any horror at all, she was as gentle and beautiful as the children described during the day, and even invited her to the room for a drink.

Wait, a drink?Where is there something to drink in the kids' room?

A lot of doubts were stuffed in her mind, Renata hesitated for a few seconds, heard the footsteps in front of her gradually disappear, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, she hugged Zorro, gritted her teeth and boldly ran up, Before running a few steps, Yelena in front of her seemed to have guessed that she would come, and stood there waiting for her.

"Let's go." Yelena looked away from the room beside her, smiled lightly, turned her head and walked forward.

Renata kept up and turned her head to look at the place Yelena was looking at just now. This is also a room on this floor, but Renata has never been included in the 38 children's room because she It is still not sure what this room is for, only a single iron door with a huge 'Zero' written in red paint.

Room zero.

"Aren't you going to go in and see what's hidden inside? You peeked at 38 rooms, but this is the only one you didn't see. Maybe there's an answer about me hidden in it." smiled back.

"... No, you say that, the things inside must have nothing to do with you. The head nurse said that we are not allowed to approach this place, otherwise we will be confined or undergo surgery." Renata subconsciously rejected Yelena's instigation. Why does she have a subconscious sense of repulsion towards room zero, and always feels that she should not approach this place, and there must be nothing related to this blonde girl.

Even if Yelena didn't show up tonight, she would obediently go to the toilet and go back to sleep after seeing Room 1, and would never have any expectations for Room [-].

"Is that so."

Renata couldn't see Yelena's expression, and she didn't know why the other party was interested in Room Zero, but this interest didn't seem to be too great. After she refused, she never mentioned it again. As she turned the hallway, she penetrated into other areas of the floor.

The heating pipes blew hot air and echoed in the corridor. Renata swallowed her saliva and followed Yelena to walk in this huge building. She had never gone so deep into it. They walked through the tool room and passed the equipment. In the meantime, she walked past the door that the night nurse hadn't closed, and she could still see figures playing cards together inside. Renata was so startled that she didn't dare to breathe out, and walked on tiptoe through the door.

"Aren't you there yet?" Renata dared to ask in a low voice after walking past the nurse's room.

"It's almost there." Yelena said casually. Compared to Renata, she seemed to be more like the real queen of the night in Black Swan Harbor. She walked casually in the corridor and never lowered her steps, as if she was not afraid at all. Seen by the nurse, could she be a ghost?Can you selectively let the people you want to see see?That's why Renata was the only one who noticed her during the funeral yesterday morning.

While Renata was thinking wildly, she suddenly bumped into the back of Yelena who had stopped in front of her. They came to the most remote corner of the floor. The leaves whirled and rattled, and there was no white light to illuminate the place, the only source of light was a red emergency light on a huge iron door at the end.

"Are you scared?" Yelena asked with a smile as if she felt Renata's retreat behind her.

"." Renata didn't answer, because she was really scared, she knew where this place was - this is the freezer!
There are many freezers in Black Swan Harbor, which contain a lot of meat products. Every year, these stocks are transported across the Arctic Ocean by the Lenin, and are moved by nurses and soldiers to freezers one by one, becoming black swans. The consumption of all Hong Kong staff for a whole year.Many freezers have been abandoned due to old age and disrepair. The freezer in front of you is one of them. It should be dark inside with iron hooks and meat racks hanging. The ground is full of frozen brown blood marks. The air is full of blood. It's rusty and fishy.

"You live here?" Renata felt her voice tremble.

"Yeah, I live here, and now I'm going to drag you in and hang you on an iron hook to become my emergency food for tomorrow." Yelena guessed what Renata was thinking again, and turned her head With a beautiful white eye, he stretched out his hand and pressed on the red wheel of the iron door, and opened the door with a little force.

Renata was about to turn around and run and shouted for help. This place is not far from the nurse's room. If she was loud enough, she might be able to call for help. Rather than being treated as frozen beef and hanging in the freezer, she would rather be surrounded by the big-bodied nurses. After being rescued, he faced the punishment of surgery and confinement.

But just when Yelena opened the iron door, the gentle light covered the red light in the corridor and shone on Renata's face. The beautiful singing voice and the sweet smell wafted out from behind the door. After passing her ears and the tip of her nose, she, who was stunned, subconsciously shook her ears and swallowed her saliva.

Yelena fully opened the door, revealing the pink room behind the door, no, this is not a room, this is simply the princess' bedroom!
Renata couldn't believe that the pink kingdom was reflected in her eyes.

In the fantasies of the girls in Black Swan Harbor, the princess’ bedroom should be paved with clouds, the stars and the moon are surrounded by twinkling eyes in the room, the surrounding walls are beautiful pink, the bed is softer than the clouds, sprinkled with With chocolates and candies, every morning there are birds singing to wake up the sleeping princess.

But now, this fantasy has come true. The room behind the iron door is covered with pink wallpaper, handmade paper stars hang down from thin silk threads on the ceiling, and the moon hanging in the center is painted bright yellow. .There's even a brand new dresser in the corner!There are all kinds of cosmetics and small things on it, and the most exaggerated one is even a record player running slowly, and the vinyl record under the firing pin is slowly rotating to play "Night in the Suburbs of Moscow".

In the middle of the pink 'bedroom' there is a round bed filled with a lot of wadding, the whole bed looks bulging, if you jump on it, you will sink so hard that you can't even find it!The white gauze curtain cut from the curtains like a waterfall covers the bed, with many star stickers on it, it must be like being in the starry sky when lying on the bed and looking up at the gauze curtain.

"What are you doing in a daze?" Yelena walked into the door and looked back at Renata, "Are you still afraid that I will put you on a meat hook?"

Renata stood at the door for a long time, until she reached out and pinched her face so painful that she almost shed tears, she believed everything she saw. She took trembling steps and stepped over the iron gate, stepping on the On the pink floor, I feel like I have stepped into a fairy tale world.But the hot air blowing from the air inlet on the ceiling in the corner of the room reminded her all the time that this was not a dream. It used to be a frozen warehouse, but it was transformed into the pink kingdom by the girl in front of her!

"Do you still think I'm a ghost without a room?" Yelena walked to the dressing table, picked up the two iron cups next to the record player, walked back to Renata and handed her a cup containing hot My milk actually has something to drink!

Not only for drinking, Renata also saw all kinds of snacks in the half-open drawer of the dressing table, chocolate beans, fruit-flavored candy jars, wafer biscuits and ham sausages!This kind of rare thing can only be obtained from the head nurse at Christmas, but there are so many stored here!
Not only snacks, Renata also saw a lot of contraband on the dressing table, such as unopened stockings, lipstick in metal tubes, silver necklaces and earrings, and a box of playing cards with modern girls in this room Not only is it the queen's bedroom, it's even a treasure house, any item here will be snatched crazy by the children!Maybe even the head nurse can't have such an extremely luxurious room?

"Snow Maiden can't drink hot things, so are you Snow Maiden or me?" Yelena sat on the soft bed in the room, watching Renata who was still in a daze raised her glass to tease.

"Who are you?" Renata is now in a state of inexplicable confusion. Before, she could explain that Yelena was a ghost, a snow maiden, or even a monster, but now it seems that monsters and ghosts There is no need to eat, at least those things will not have such a fairytale room!This completely made Renata unable to determine what Yelena was.

"Renata, do you know that for so many years, you are the first person to come to my room." Yelena looked at Renata and said with a smile, "So you must be special, and you probably know it yourself a little."

Renata paused for a moment, and didn't respond to Yelena's words, but she faintly believed that what the other party said was right, she was indeed special, at least she always thought so before.

"Everyone remembers me, but you don't. There must be a reason for this, and I hope you can find the reason and get rid of him," Yelena said.

"I don't understand what you mean." Renata held the milk glass and didn't understand what Yelena was talking about.

"I have nowhere else to go," Yelena said, "so I want to live here."

It's a showdown.

Renata stared at the blond girl, did the other party admit that she was an outsider?Sure enough, it was she who tampered with the people in the port, and everyone remembered the girl somehow.

But why can't I remember?Why can't Yelena affect herself?

"Hmm. I'm thinking about this too." Yelena glanced at Renata and smiled.

Here it is again, she seems to know what she is thinking!Renata took half a step back and did not dare to look at Yelena, fearing that what she was thinking would be read by the other party again.

"I noticed that you don't hate new friends joining the Black Swan Harbor family, do you? Just like today at noon, I saw you teaching Matvey how to eat with a spoon. You are a very compassionate person, Renata, since you can accept Matvey, why can't you accept me?" Yelena asked with a smile.

"Accept you?" Renata didn't understand what Yelena meant, did she want to be friends with her?
"Starting tomorrow, give up investigating my thoughts, just like everyone else, accept everything about me. We can be friends and live together happily." Yelena turned her head and said, "In this way, you will be punished." Some rewards, such as being able to come to my room to play for a while every night."

"What's your purpose?" Renata didn't get dazed by the temptation, and gave Yelena a vigilant look, feeling that the other party had malicious intentions.

"My purpose? In fact, I'm just telling you quietly, I'm just a refugee." Yelena pursed her lips cutely, "Someone is chasing me. I have fled to many places and was found by him. Finally, I found out. Here, as long as I hide here, those who chase me will not be able to find me for the time being!"

"Who is chasing you?" Renata seemed stunned by this reason.

Yelena tilted her head and thought for a while and said, "Well, I don't really know, but he said he is the emperor?"
