Chapter 189

Like something went wrong.

When he woke up, Luo Binhan found himself sitting in the carriage.Outside the car window is a dark tunnel, and the sound of the wind whistling with the swaying of the car.

The TV in the compartment was playing an advertisement, and a foreigner in a white coat was holding a medicine box and speaking the advertisement slogan with a smile on his face.Because the wind outside the car was too loud, Luo Binhan couldn't hear what he said at all, and could only catch a glimpse of the words "Lunxing Medicine" from the subtitles below.

He looked around, judging from the familiar arrangement that he was in a subway train.The carriage was shaking constantly, but the environment was not cold. Since the heating system was still operating, Luo Binhan believed that this should not be a prelude to a battle royale or a zombie apocalypse.

But he couldn't remember why he was here.

He remembered who he was, and his memories of the past were clear and coherent, and he could even call out the names of his childhood friends accurately, but the experience of riding the subway was ambiguous.Besides, he didn't know which route this was. He didn't remember that Lihai City had such a colored subway car.

Something is very wrong with this.He could vaguely understand this in his heart, as if an invisible skeleton was screaming and flying around his head, wishing to grab his head and escape from here.

But where are you going?
Luo Binhan was puzzled, and began to quietly look at the other passengers in the car.He didn't know the time at this moment, but at this moment the compartment was empty as if in the early morning.There were no other passengers in the car he was sitting in, and there were only a few people in the adjacent car, some were sleeping, and some were listening to music with earphones on.

He quietly watched these passengers.They all looked normal, but Luo Binhan felt very nervous for no reason. A certain echo remained in his head, strictly forbidding him to talk to those people.

But the situation seems to require him to go to someone to talk to.He was sitting in a carriage with an unknown destination, and he couldn't remember why he was here.This is simply a typical symptom of sleepwalking patients.

Luo Binhan touched his pocket, looking for a diary or a scrap of paper in it, maybe there would be a long text on it, telling him how he suffered from this intermittent amnesia.It's a pity that instead of getting any prompts, he even found out that he didn't bring his mobile phone and wallet.A suspense lingered in his head immediately: how did he get into the subway station?Sneaky jumping over a fence?

The train began to slow down and entered the next station.

Luo Binhan heard from the radio that the name of this station was "Migenzhu University Station".That sounded familiar, so he decided to get off at this stop and go to the station staff for help.

This idea is undoubtedly the best choice rationally, but the murmurs in his head are always ringing, as if there is a villain inside who is making a big noise, trying his best to prevent him from getting out of the car.That made Luo Binhan delay for a while, and the alarm for the door closing had already sounded.

Luo Binhan jumped off his seat and was about to rush out quickly, but at this moment a young man with a mobile phone happened to come in from the door, completely blocking Luo Binhan's way out.They almost bumped into each other, and the door quietly closed behind the young man, and the train continued to the next station.

Realizing that he had delayed Luo Binhan getting out of the car, the young man smiled apologetically at him.

"Sorry, my friend sent me a message just now, and I didn't notice that you were getting off the car."

Luo Binhan shook his head and glanced at the other party's phone.He wanted to take a look at the current time, but noticed that the chat interface opened by the young man was full of emojis of rhinos and elephants, and the chat partner at the top of the window was displayed as "Tall and Strong".

He pretended he didn't see anything, and sat back in his original position, waiting for the next train to come into the station.The young man who had just gotten into the car sat across from him, chatting with his friends leisurely.

"Are you here for tourism?" he said.

At first, Luo Binhan thought that the young man was using his mobile phone to talk to the other party, but it was not until he saw the other party looking over with a smile that he realized that the words were actually addressed to him.

As a passenger who met by chance on the subway, this kind of concern made Luo Binhan feel very strange.The other party's kind and easy-going expression is also too familiar.

He remained alert and silent, using body language to express his refusal to communicate.In the end, the young man seemed to be unable to read the air at all, and he still smiled nonchalantly and said, "Because the clothes you are wearing are very thin, and you don't have a hat to keep out the rain. I rarely see locals dressed like this in this season. It's raining." It’s easy to catch a cold if you go out dressed like this at night, so it’s better to bring an umbrella.”

Luo Binhan stared at him silently.As a result, instead of being embarrassed, the young man opened the backpack calmly, took out a folding umbrella from inside and handed it over.

"Do you need it?" He said with a smile, "It happens that I live very close to the subway station, so I can help others. If I really need a place to live, I can also help - but there will be a fee, and only Tonight, after all, my home is not a hotel."

Luo Binhan ignored his umbrella, and the young man didn't seem to care either.He put the umbrella back in the bag and hummed a tune leisurely.After a while the youth said, "Did you know that some people live in subway tunnels?"

It seemed to be deliberately attracting Luo Binhan's attention, but his voice had a strange power that made Luo Binhan unable to stop listening.

The young man said solemnly: "It's true. There used to be a group of homeless people living in a certain tunnel in the west of the city. Because the tunnel was connected to the air-raid shelter, they used it as a temporary rental house. Later, it seemed that there was a A murderer, and all the residents were killed by dismemberment. A friend of mine was also involved, and came back with a worse temper. But she was originally a strange person-know Dual personality? Although my friend is physically a girl, she claims that she also has a male personality with a similar pronunciation. Interesting, isn’t it? Last time I said that her male personality might be a murderer, but she almost got her My umbrella pierced my throat. Life is full of dangers."

He laughed heartily, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with him.

Then he asked Luo Binhan relaxedly: "So you really don't need to stay at my house for one night?"

Luo Binhan began to consider changing the carriage.Because he listened too intently to the young man just now, he found that he had already sat for three or four stops in a row.And even as a person with amnesia, he is absolutely sure that this young man is not a normal person.

He stood up from his seat, and the young man immediately raised his hands and said, "Okay, okay, I'm not kidding anymore. What I said just now was meant to tease you, so don't take it to heart. I'm not a bad person, just a slightly Just boring college students."

As evidence, the young man took out a student ID card from his backpack."Migenzhu University" was printed on the cover of the certificate, and inside was his photo and introduction - Chen Wei, a student in the second class of the Department of Literature.

The young man frankly showed his student ID card in front of Luo Binhan for a while, and then said with a troubled smile: "This incident sounds incredible, but I was entrusted to get on this subway at three o'clock in the morning. How should I put it? I am a person who often encounters situations that cannot be explained by common sense. I think it is more appropriate to describe it as 'dreamlike'? I don't mind helping people run errands, so let me ask Just a moment. Do you remember where you came from, sir?"

Luo Binhan stood where he was, not knowing how to react.

"Ah, it really happened again."

The young man sighed with both joy and headache, and then said with a smile: "Then you are the person I am looking for today. Please don't be nervous, I am entrusted by a great sage to help. It is like receiving tourists with amnesia. To be honest, I have encountered this kind of thing no less than six or seven times. Even an intern assistant is eligible to become a regular, right? So please sit down, don’t need to do anything extra, how about treating today as a chance encounter?”

His voice is gentle and relaxed, with a strong persuasive power.Although Luo Binhan was extremely puzzled, his body sat back cooperatively.He subconsciously held onto the railing, but the pain in his palm immediately made him let go.

The young man looked over with concern: "Is your hand burnt?"

The wound was red, swollen and burning, and the shape was a strange long strip. Luo Binhan also felt that it was a mark left by something scalded.He couldn't remember the reason for a while, but he knew that this was a very important wound.

He put his palms in his pockets without a word.Seeing his actions, the young man seemed to remind him out of good intentions: "It's not okay to avoid medical treatment. It's better to go to the hospital. Although it's a bit late now, I happen to have acquaintances in a nearby private clinic."

"No need." Robin Han said.

He was still thinking about the injury on his hand, but he heard the young man opposite him laughing.

"So you are not dumb." The young man said, "That's great, so I can eat your soul."

The lights in the car suddenly went out.In the darkness, the figure sitting opposite Luo Binhan also became blurred.

"Ever heard of Firewalkers?"

The "passenger" sitting opposite him continued talking in the dark.His voice is still like that enthusiastic and a little strange youth.

"Crossing through a red-hot iron plate without being damaged is considered religiously a symbol of holiness of heart and following the light. But then again, if fire is such a destructive force, it gives it a pure Isn't the attribute of justice also strange? If fire is a symbol of vitality, then the character that can restrain it is not purity, but 'nothingness'. In other words, it is possible to pass through the fire Those who are actually 'thinking about nothing'."

The dark shadow stood up and took a step closer amidst the howling wind.

"The fear of fire and self-protection are the cornerstones of life. But once a person who has passed through the fire succeeds, he will inevitably see all these things as empty. Why did he jump into the fire in the first place? It is precisely because The result must be achieved by abandoning the cause, so the ritual never really produces a saint."

Step by step, "Shadow" came to Luo Binhan staggeringly.The blood-red flashing ghost eyes slowly opened on his forehead.

"But that means nothing to you anymore. Because your soul will be eaten by me—"

"He" in the darkness was smiling strangely, but suddenly the interior of the car was bright again.

"The terminal station, Xinyue Road Station, is here. All passengers, please get off."

With an "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhssA dynamic picture is being shown on the screen of the mobile phone. It is a blood-red glowing ghost eye looking around in the dark.

"Mistake, mistake." He said with a smile, "every time at 03:30, this car will have a light-off time of about 1 minute. This is a rule I discovered by accident. I thought I would use this as a prank. In the end, I was so excited that I didn't control the time well... Sure enough, I still need to practice a few more times. Then I have to get off at this station. As for you, as long as you continue to sit here and wait for the train to leave, you should be fine Get out of this city. That's all for today's adventure."

The young man walked back to his seat, put on his backpack again, and walked to the door that opened automatically.Before going out, he suddenly turned around again.

"The joke just now was really a little too much," he said with a smile, "I'm sorry, but let me make up for it—a drug of that concentration is useless, because those bugs don't have a holistic soul. If you want to save someone, just try to open your eyes."

The train starts whistling before closing doors.So the young man left the carriage and returned to the city in the middle of the night.
