Chapter 157 157
The days when fate breaks off its hand are boring.
You can't do this, you can't do that, and you have to stop practicing martial arts.
Although Li Chengyi was using the radiant force field to speed up his healing, it would not be possible for him to recover in just a few days.
He was only half healed in three days, and it was estimated that it would take five days to fully recover.
In order not to waste time.
He began to continue studying the notes he had received from Zhong Hui in the ward: the exploration and recording of the clock field.
He had read this notebook a little bit before, but he didn't read it in detail, he just gave it a rough glance.
This time, he once again read the part about the silent shop recorded by Zhong Huizengjin.
A foreigner named Ghosn found him and warned him not to enter again, otherwise there would be unpredictable consequences.
Zhong Hui probably finally followed the advice and chose to take the goods and leave.
Otherwise, other blind spot information later will not be recorded in such detail.
But.
'What is the essence of man?' '
The words that followed immediately after the page of Zhong Hui's self-portrait still made Li Chengyi think about it at this time.
Night time.
He was alone in the white ward, sitting on the bed and flipping through his notebook.
Boom, boom, boom.
Suddenly there was a gentle knock on the door.
The sound is not loud and the intensity is neither light nor heavy, giving people a very polite and restrained feeling.
"Please come in." Li Chengyi said. Put the notebook in your hand under the pillow, then look up towards the door.
It was already past eleven o'clock at night.
The nurse on duty came just half an hour ago, and now she has gone to take a break and change her shift.
Logically speaking, no one should come.
Li Chengyi looked at the door.
But there was no movement.
The door was obviously unlocked, but he said please come in, but the other party still didn't move.
"Please come in." He raised his voice again and said.
In the quiet ward, only his voice echoed slightly.
Still not moving.
The person outside the door still didn't seem to hear.
Or, you heard it, but didn’t move.
Li Chengyi frowned a little.
The body is quietly covered with invisible wisteria flower scales.
Titan Sunflower has also undergone a second evolution, and can cover the whole body's clothes and fuse with them. However, because it has reached its ultimate form, as long as it is worn, everything around it will be ignited by the high-temperature force field without distinction.
Therefore, except for critical moments, he generally would not use Titan Sunflower casually.
Although the Wisteria Flower Scale Clothes is broken and its defense power has dropped, it is still more reliable and comprehensive than bulletproof vests and the like.
Normal bullets can't break it.
After waiting for a few seconds, Li Chengyi found that no one responded, so he slowly got up and got out of bed.
The door of the ward is rectangular with a square viewing window.
He could see from the viewing window that the brim of a gray wide-brimmed hat was visible on the right side of the window.
There seemed to be a man of medium height, about the same height as the viewing window, wearing a gray wide-brimmed hat, standing in front of the door, knocking quietly.
"Who is outside?"
Li Chengyi slowly walked towards the door.
He rarely went to the hospital, but he also knew that doctors and nurses would never dress like this.
Therefore, there must be an outsider outside the door, and the outsider is standing at the door, but does not come in.
His vigilance immediately increased.
slowly.
Li Chengyi walked to the door step by step.
Reach out.
Hold the door handle.
"You can't."
At this time, a mumbled voice came from outside the door.
It was a man with a strange crying tone. He was also speaking in Yi Mandarin, but inexplicably he could hear a strong sense of panic in it.
"We can't do this anymore, we can't go in again." Through a door, the man's unclear voice reached Li Chengyi's ears.
"Where are you going in? Who are you? Can you come in and talk? Can you be more clear?" Li Chengyi asked in a deep voice.
"Don't go in again. Absolutely, absolutely not again"
shouted.
Suddenly a breeze blew from behind Li Chengyi.
He felt a chill in his heart. He remembered that there were no windows in the ward.
He turned his head sharply and looked back.
Li Chengyi discovered that the window next to the hospital bed, which had been closed before, was opened somehow.
The cool night wind blows in from outside.
But at this moment, all he felt was a chill.
The radiant force field quietly expanded unconsciously, covering the entire ward in an instant.
The glorious force field with purification ability gave Li Chengyi a lot of psychological comfort.
He turned back and looked toward the door and out the window.
The brim of the hat was gone.
Click.
He opened the door and found a quiet white corridor outside.
And at the foot of the door, there was a brown-wrapped envelope.
Li Chengyi bent down to pick up the envelope, closed the door and returned to the room.
He wasn't worried about toxicity or anything like that. In the protective state, his whole body and even his breathing were isolated from the outside world.
The Flower Scale Clothes can even provide oxygen alone, allowing him to be self-sufficient and isolated from the outside world.
Taking the letter, he read it for a while.
The postal code in the upper left corner of the yellow envelope is all blacked out.
There is no address in the middle, just two words: Ghosn.
Apart from that, there is nothing else, all blank.
'Ghosn.'
Li Chengyi immediately thought of the mysterious person mentioned in Zhong Hui's notes.
The mysterious foreigner who once came to warn him that he could no longer enter the silent shop.
Later, Zhong Hui disappeared due to a blood transfusion, and his wife cloned a new one to live in his place.
But everyone knows that the real Zhong Hui has disappeared.
Li Chengyi didn't know how Ghosn found him. I don't know what he means. 'Perhaps, the root of everything is hidden in this letter.'
He looked at the letter and took a deep breath.
hiss.
Tear open one end of the envelope.
He shook the inner cavity, and a piece of white paper folded into an irregular shape fell out.
Unfold the white paper.
There were crooked ceremonial writings on it.
'Your body is undergoing changes. '
'Whether you have a blood exchange or not, you will slowly undergo irreversible changes as the number of times you enter and exit that store increases. '
'Something is watching you. They are similar to humans, but only similar. They are not humans! '
'Be careful. Be careful around you. They're coming! ! ! '
The last line was written very hard. The letter paper was punctured with cuts.
Li Chengyi could feel that the emotional state of the person who wrote the letter was very poor.
The entire content of the letter is here.
He flipped it back and forth to make sure there was no other content, then folded the letter again and stuffed it back into the envelope.
"They are here? What are they? Are they humans? Or monsters in a blind corner?"
Li Chengyi frowned.
Ghosn is mysterious and unwilling to speak clearly.
I don’t know what the idea was.
But no matter what, the other party didn't take any action other than reminding him, which might be considered a good intention.
Once upon a time, Zhong Hui also met this Ghosn after entering the Silent Shop.
Apparently he has a way of paying attention to the people who enter the quiet shop.
The blind spot suddenly affected his reality.
This made Li Chengyi's original tense state tighten even more.
'It seems that we have to leave the silent shop as soon as possible. '

The night of the 15th.
On the old street where I first entered the silent shop.
Li Chengyi was wearing a black windbreaker and a black knitted hat, covering his entire head and most of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
He slowly walked up and down the old street, waiting for the flash to come.
From the nearby street where bars and KTVs gathered, the sound of music and the shouts of the crowd floated in the distance.
He seemed to be quarreling, or drunk.
It's winter and the temperature is getting colder.
Li Chengyi tightened his windbreaker, lowered his head and walked slowly along the sidewalk.
The left hand has completely recovered.
It only lasted five days, and only half of the powerful nutrient solution given by Big Bear was used.
The doctors who examined him looked at him as if they were looking at someone who was being strengthened.
Everyone thought he had received at least dozens of booster shots.
But only Li Chengyi himself knew that he had only drank the enhanced genetic medicine once so far.
I drank it when I was in the brain calculation center.
Snap.
Tiny raindrops fell from the night sky.
Li Chengyi raised his head and looked at the sky. It was a gray and dark sky with no clouds, no white stars and the moon.
There is only a chaotic gray and black.
The ground gradually became moist as the raindrops increased.
He straightened his hat and deployed the radiant force field.
The raindrops just fell on the heads and shoulders, and were quickly dried and evaporated by the heat.
while walking.
Passing by a 24-hour self-service bank on the left, blue and white lights are projected from the glass automatic door of the self-service bank.
The light shines on the blind path outside and on Li Chengyi himself, as if coated with a blue-white film.
A chocolate-skinned girl with light blonde hair, wearing crystal earrings and a milky white low-cut miniskirt staggered out of the self-service bank.
She held on to the red fire hydrant at the door, bent down and began to vomit.
Li Chengyi was not surprised. There were many bars nearby and this kind of situation could often be seen.
Withdrawing his gaze, he continued to move forward.
After turning a corner, there is a black and white checkered wall on the left side of the road ahead.
There are dark green plants sprouting from the inside of the wall.
You can see through the green plants that there are single-family villas inside the walls.
Passing by the iron gate of a villa.
There is a round nameplate in front of the door that is as bright as a silver mirror.
It has the owner's postal code, house number, etc. written on it.
Listening to the faint sound of TV programs coming from the house.
Li Chengyi calculated the distance, turned around, and headed back the way he came.
The location where the Silent Shop happened was in that block, so he couldn't be too far away from there.
Walk slowly all the way.
Soon.
He returned to the self-service bank.
The vomiting chocolate girl was accompanied by a thin young girl with black hair, who was helping her sit on the steps in front of the bank to hide from the rain.
Li Chengyi's steps slowed slightly as he recognized the black-haired girl.
Zhou Xingtong.
Chen Pi introduced him to his dormitory classmates before.
She was wearing a black long-sleeved T-shirt with the words Dudu Milk Tea printed on the back in white, and was talking to the chocolate girl in a low voice.
Her slender waist and long legs were completely covered by loose work clothes, and she also wore a pair of large black-rimmed glasses on her face. She didn't wear much makeup, and she looked much more haggard than before.
Li Chengyi didn't expect to meet an acquaintance at this time.
Although they rarely meet each other, occasionally the other party will like him in his circle of friends.
After thinking about it, he still didn't say hello to the other party. At this time, it was not the time to chat.
The danger of the Silent Shop has increased significantly, and he must be prepared to deal with it with all his strength.
All the flower scale clothes have been repaired, and Rainbow Candy’s life clothes have also been borrowed.
The drugs needed for first aid are short-term stimulants and directional blasting explosive packs with simple structure.
These are carefully prepared for him by Big Bear and Skittles.
