Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 1411 Between Neighbors
1406
Granny Pink's mental deterioration has been getting worse lately.

When Lin Sanjiu went out to water Maokui, she was seen standing at the door of the apartment several times, guarding the door like a guard; every time she greeted her, Grandma Pink had a blank expression on her face, obviously she didn’t remember who she was at all up.Fortunately, the old lady still remembered her grandson, and followed Pink very closely, as if she was afraid that her grandson would disappear if she lost sight of her.

After only a few days of entering the game, in Lin Sanjiu's eyes, this short, fat middle-aged man was equated with the old lady—she still saw a middle-aged man in her eyes, but her mind would immediately reflex "Grandma Pink".

Every time after greeting her, Lin Sanjiu would feel anxious.Grandma Pink is so confused, what stories should she tell to make the other party feel that she really has spiritual powers?Can Grandma Pink still understand what psychic abilities are?

It's not just Grandma Pink... Of all her neighbors, only Xiao Huang is dubious about her now.The progress in the character handbook is 1 for a while, and 0 for a while. It is obvious that Xiao Huang is struggling between belief and unbelief—of course, Elizabeth will not feel guilty at all for using other people's mental instability to achieve her own goals .

If it wasn't for Xiao Huang's hallucinations, thinking that she saw a pair of bare feet under the curtains of her house, I'm afraid she wouldn't even have this one person who believed her.Lin Sanjiu wasn't sure at the time whether she was testing herself or if she was really hallucinating, so she just said that she had an "old friend" who followed wherever she went; until she saw Xiao Huang's Only then did she realize that thanks to the other party's mental problems, she finally had the first person who might believe her.

The next one, I still don't know where to find it.The method of telling stories at the tea party does not seem to have a good response; if she continues to be honest and follow the rules, she will not be able to pass the game.

"Pink,"

This afternoon, when Lin Sanjiu walked out of the room on time, she greeted Pink. "I'm not playing war games today, are you reading comics?"

Pink was still sitting at the door of the apartment as usual.It's just that his appearance today is a bit strange: he doesn't hold the book in his hands, but steps on the edge of a comic with his feet, his dark golden eyelashes hang down; whenever he wants to turn a page, he picks it up with a branch Open the pages—as if you wouldn't even touch it.

"Why do you read like this?" Lin Sanjiu couldn't help asking.

Pink raised his eyes, the emerald green pupils seemed to glow in the sun. "I want you to take care of it," he was still rude.

Just as Lin Sanjiu was about to lift his foot, Pink stopped him again.

"You are a witch, aren't you?" Those bright green pupils soaked in white snow were staring at her.

"I prefer to be called a psychic."

"Since you are a witch," Pink continued as if he didn't hear what she said, "then can you do something for me?"

"What's the matter?" Lin Sanjiu asked with a smile as his eyes lit up.

Pink frowned and hesitated.

"Just count when I die."

Lin Sanjiu was really surprised when these words came out of a five-year-old child.She just opened her mouth and was not sure what she should say, but she saw Pink stand up abruptly—he kicked away the cartoons on the ground, said "forget it" in a low voice, and turned around back to the house.

Lin Sanjiu looked down at the manga, wrapped his sleeves around his hands, and picked it up.When she straightened up, she subconsciously swept towards Pink's house, and she saw it again.

Behind the floor-to-ceiling windows, the curtains were pulled slightly apart.The old lady was peeping out from the shadows, only revealing a cloudy eye that turned blue; the two looked at each other through the slit, and the old lady quickly disappeared from between the curtains .

...Is this comic book given to Pink by Grandma Pink?

Lin Sanjiu thought while slowly descending the stairs with the manga in his hand.But what did she do to her grandson?Is it too confused--

She stopped abruptly on the stairs.

She was only halfway down the stairs at this time, and when she looked up, she could still see the windows of Pink's house.The curtains were not closed, still revealing a dark seam.

Maybe she was overthinking, maybe she was overly suspicious, but——

Whose eye did she see just now?
There is only one person Grandma Pink is staring at closely, and that is her grandson.She never stares outside when her grandson is already back in the house.It is already a rare thing not to look at the grandson, but to look at outsiders; besides...Grandma Pink is a man approaching middle age, far from being so old that even the eyeballs are turning blue the point.

Is it a lighting problem?Is it Miss Chen?

Coincidentally, just as Lin Sanjiu thought of this, he happened to see Ms. Chen pushing the door out of her apartment.The latter probably couldn't bear the crying of the baby next door, so he walked over and knocked on the door of Apartment No. 4; after a while, Ah Hei opened the door in a hurry, with a towel on his shoulder and a hand in his hand. Baby bottle, sweat all over his forehead.

"I'm sorry," he apologized as soon as he saw Miss Chen, "I'm warming up the milk, he's hungry...you know, he doesn't have a mother to feed him..."

The conversation between the two passed Lin Sanjiu's ears.She stood on the stairs, looking at Pinker's house for a while, and Miss Chen for a while; it was approaching dinner time, and the fireworks in the residential building were more intense than usual, gradually convincing her that she was thinking too much.If not Grandma Pink, who would it be?After all, as he got older, he moved slower and didn't follow his grandson back in time, maybe there were some.

When Lin Sanjiu approached Apartment No. 4, Ah Hei pulled his face down as soon as he saw her.Ms. Chen was still standing at the door. When she heard footsteps and turned her head, her eyes were attracted by the cartoon in her hand.

"What are you doing here?"

"What are you doing with it?" The two asked almost simultaneously.

"Do you know this manga?" Lin Sanjiu didn't answer Ah Hei, but still wrapped his hands in his sleeves, picked up the book and asked.

"I gave it to Pink," Miss Chen said with a frown. "Why did you take it away? Did you get it dirty? Why are you holding it like this?"

Before Lin Sanjiu could reply, she had already snatched the book away—Miss Chen's unprotected hand skin directly pressed against the comic book, choking Lin Sanjiu back with a cry.The old lady didn't know it, she took the comic and went upstairs again, as if she wanted to take it back to Pink.

Lin Sanjiu looked at her back and didn't know how to react for a moment.Ms. Chen didn't seem to be affected at all, but her suspicion seemed to be too heavy in comparison - when she turned her head, Ah Hei was looking at her coldly.

"I'll take a look at Xiao Huang." She immediately took out an excuse she had thought of, and said in a low voice, "I think it's not a bad thing for her to try another way..."

Ah Hei's husband is very competent, and he really opened his mouth to stop her from the door—Lin Sanjiu hurriedly squeezed into the crack of the door, and said with a smile: "Don't you think that after I comforted her last time, Is she feeling better?"

Her husband hesitated for a few seconds.

"I'll just sit with her, help her stabilize her mentality, and leave immediately."

These words seemed to have finally convinced Ah Hei. "I'm going to warm up my grandma. Don't talk nonsense to her. I'll be right back."

Just one or two minutes is enough for Lin Sanjiu.While Ah Hei disappeared behind a door in the corridor, she quickly walked into the master bedroom; Xiao Huang lay on the bed with his back to her, motionless, as if he was asleep.

She looked around, and sure enough, she found a walkie-talkie-shaped machine on the bedside table—it was a baby monitor that most parents would have, and it could make parents aware of abnormalities in time.Lin Sanjiu reached out and grabbed it, turned off the power, and stuffed it into his trouser pocket.She can't afford this thing; she'll have to steal the baby's one later so she can use it to spy on others.

Subconsciously raising her head, Lin Sanjiu's eyes fell on the window opposite the bed.Xiao Huang cast a blurred reflection lying on her side on the window, the eyes on her face were wide and round, looking at her from the reflection in the window.

　I'm so sleepy that I don't know what to write... If I'm still so tired tomorrow, I'll take a day off...
