Rubik's Cube Seven Days Dream

It was a silver microbus van, as long as the door could be opened, it would be no problem for all seven people to sit in it.For everyone, this is simply a blessing in misfortune.

Miao Fang and Zhao Dongxiang pressed the door handles of the driver's seat and the co-pilot's. After finding that the door could not be opened, they kept hitting the door with their elbows and bodies. Apart from pain, the door remained motionless.

The people on the side were shivering from the cold, watching this scene was like a hungry traveler seeing bread but not being able to eat it.

Xu Minglang was so heartbroken, he walked to the back of the car and lightly pulled the handle of the rear door, and the door opened.

When Zhao Dongxiang saw the car door open, his voice trembled with excitement: "There is no unparalleled road!"

Xu Minglang vaguely felt weird, why was the rear door unlocked?But it was too cold outside, so he didn't have time to think too much, he got in first, unlocked the central locks of the rest of the doors, and the rest of the people got in one after another.

There are no more seats in the car, exactly seven, and everything looks just right.Except for Zhou Xuerong, who is tall and long-legged, the space in the van is still too narrow for him. He can only curl up his legs, lower his head, and sit curled up on the co-pilot, looking like a flower stuffed into a narrow cage. Leopard.

Xu Minglang was sitting in the driver's seat. In order to calm the fainted Cao Jing, he and Yu Haohuai carried her into the back seat together, and he was the last one to get in the car.

He held the steering wheel with both hands, the steering wheel was as cold as his hands, and it was extremely clean, there was no smell of smoke in the car, and there were no doll pendants used by the driver to decorate the car.

It stands to reason that this kind of minivan was made more than ten years ago, and most of the people who bought this kind of car used it to haul goods or carry people. It is impossible to have no traces of use, but this car looks like it just came out of the workshop It was produced in this snow field, and it was placed in this snow field.

Xu Minglang turned on the lights inside the car and looked down, and saw a small piece of silver beside the foot brake, it turned out to be a key!He woke up instantly, got out of the car, picked up the key, and turned it in the keyhole. The body vibrated under him, making a familiar buzzing sound.

Everyone in the back seat was groggy at first, but now they are all sober, clamoring that they can drive the car back to the city and return it the next day.

Zhao Dongxiang boasted that the car was the oldest, and proposed to change seats with Xu Minglang, and he would drive.In the joyous atmosphere, everyone temporarily forgot about the cold, Zhou Xuerong listened to the chattering voices, but didn't say a word.

Xu Minglang got out of the car and exchanged places with Zhao Dongxiang, and Zhou Xuerong got out of the car on his heels, saying that the back seat was more spacious.In this way, Zhao Dongxiang was in charge of driving, Yu Haohuai sat in the passenger seat, Ye Jiawen and Miao Fang were in the rear two seats, and Cao Jing, Zhou Xuerong and Xu Minglang were in the last row who had just woken up.

The car drove slowly, leaving the night behind little by little, the orange light flickered, and then completely disappeared, leaving only two scratches on the snowfield where the tires passed.

Xu Minglang leaned his head against the car window, and outside the window was the snow scene that kept passing by.As a veteran driver with more than [-] years of experience, Zhao Dongxiang drove the car very steadily.The people in the car were all tired and hungry, and the chill on their bodies had not yet dissipated. At this moment, they all closed their eyes, and the car was filled with all kinds of heavy breathing sounds.

And recalling what happened just now, no matter how tired Xu Minglang was, he didn't feel sleepy anymore, and closed his eyes to think wildly.The strange fire in the base and the sudden appearance of mutated monsters made everything full of unreality.

Xu Minglang gave up thinking and closed his eyes to take a nap, when he suddenly felt a warm itching on his neck, he dodged like lightning, his head hitting the glass made him gasp in pain, and the person who made him cover his head and bared his teeth fell down. Above his head, the black-haired young man's lips were facing his exposed neck, and his warm breath slapped on it, making Xu Minglang itchy and embarrassed.

Xu Minglang sighed and helped the big man beside him. The latter made a sticky nasal voice like a child, and his intertwined eyelashes trembled like a feather fan, making people wonder what kind of eyes were hidden inside.

For a moment Xu Minglang felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, and he even raised his hand, wanting to cover it.When he reacted, his hands froze in the air in embarrassment, and instead made a neck scratching motion.

Suddenly there was a bump, and the heavy head beside Xu Minglang fell back to Xu Minglang's shoulders. The difference from before was that the necks of the two intertwined to form a secret space. It landed on the position of Xu Minglang's lower abdomen, and he was unconsciously rubbing it slightly.

Cao Jing in the back seat murmured, and Xu Minglang's shame rushed up his back. He squeezed out a gasp from between his teeth, pushed the young man behind him away with his back, and threw off his hand in time.

After a while, Zhao Dongxiang's voice came from the front seat: "It's still two hours away from the city, why don't you get out of the car and have something to eat?"

After a whole afternoon of tossing, not only Zhao Dongxiang, everyone was hungry.

Xu Minglang wiped the fog off the glass. There was a chain supermarket across the avenue. The signboard made of neon tubes was very conspicuous in the night. Even the advertisement for desserts, which he didn’t pay much attention to in the past, became very tempting at this moment. It is hard to ignore the mourning in the stomach at a glance.

Miao Fang disagreed: "I'm not hungry, I just want to go back to the city early."

Zhao Dongxiang was a little embarrassed, Yu Haohuai turned his head and asked the others: "How about you? Are you hungry?"

Xu Minglang raised his arm to wake Zhou Xuerong up, and asked, "There is a supermarket next door, do you want to eat?"

Zhou Xuerong: "I listen to you."

Xu Minglang gave a dry laugh, thinking that this person is familiar enough to listen to his name...

Xu Minglang didn't want to get out of the car, and he also wanted to go home early to make a long-term plan, but considering that there were two girls in the car, they were already terribly cold and their pants were wet, so they had to change their socks and buy a towel or something. Also agreed.Cao Jing, who had just woken up, also complained that her feet were covered with snow and felt a headache.

Miao Fang smiled disdainfully, Cao Jing muttered again, causing Zhao Dongxiang to open the door quickly, everyone got out of the car and waded across the snow, and came to the supermarket, Xu Minglang suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart, it felt like a breath Can't get up while hanging.

The neon signboards of the supermarket chain in front of him were blooming wantonly under the night, but without the passers-by and surrounding residents who used to walk, the huge supermarket stood like a city of light, and the melodiously flying snowflakes made Xu Minglang even feel that he was in an Like a world in a crystal ball.

"What time is it? Why is there no one on the street?" Zhao Dongxiang said while walking.

Ye Jiawen tightened her coat tightly: "This kind of sudden drop in temperature and heavy snowfall, it's normal for everyone not to go out."

Miao Fang answered, "It's a suburb after all."

Ye Jiawen didn't reply.

Xu Minglang hesitated to go in, but instead of waiting outside in the cold, he still wanted to find a pair of dry pants to change into.Compared to Zhou Xuerong, he looked much calmer. He was wearing a thin sweater, still carrying a black cloth bag behind his back, and there was no trace of impatience on his face.

Xu Minglang shivered as he watched people walk into the entrance of the supermarket one by one, with inexplicable fear surging in his heart. Zhou Xuerong, who was walking in front of him, seemed to have sensed his emotions, and suddenly stopped, turned his head and walked over, his movements were natural He fiddled with the snowflakes on Xu Minglang's head and said, "It's cold outside, come in quickly, Brother Lang." Zhou Xuerong said.

Xu Minglang looked at the snowy sky, feeling that he was about to be sucked in by the endless darkness.

"You said, when will the snow stop?" Xu Minglang murmured.

"Soon." Zhou Xuerong was stunned for a moment and repeated, "...soon."

Xu Minglang tightened his clothes, and he and Zhou Xuerong walked quickly into the entrance of the supermarket.

***

There is a row of restaurants and snack bars outside the entrance of the supermarket, but at this time only the signboards are lit, and there is no one inside.Yu Haohuai leaned against the pillar at the door and smoked. When he saw the two coming, he went up to meet them with a cigarette in his mouth and asked, "What are you dawdling for?"

Because of his professional needs, Xu Minglang pays the most attention to protecting his throat on weekdays. He has never touched cigarettes since he was in college. At this time, he was sprayed in the face by second-hand smoke, causing him to turn his head away.

Zhou Xuerong pushed away Yu Haohuai's hand holding the cigarette, Yu Haohuai dropped the cigarette, raised his chin and said, "Guess what time it is?"

Xu Minglang took out his phone and looked at it, he was startled.

"11:40?"

Yu Haohuai: "It's so late, don't you think it's strange that the supermarket is still open?"

...just plain weird

Zhou Xuerong didn't speak, and dragged Xu Minglang to the supermarket.

Yu Haohuai's voice came from behind.

"Old Zhao went to get food. Miao Fang probably went looking for clothes with the two girls. I'm here to handle it. If you want to buy something, hurry up. I'll wait for you at the door."

Yu Haohuai watched the two disappear into the entrance of the supermarket, and stamped out the cigarette butt with his toe.

In the clothing area on the second floor, Ye Jiawen was wearing a khaki cotton coat and a pair of plain socks around her arms. She was waiting in the aisle for Cao Jing to choose her clothes.

Cao Jing unhurriedly pushed aside the cotton-padded coat on the hanger and said, "Sister Yao, this dress on you doesn't look good, the color is too old and you look old when you wear it, and the waist is too fat to show off your figure. Listen to my sister. Get another one."

"No need, this one is pretty good." Ye Jiawen glanced at the price tags on the clothes, looked left and right and said, "Well... sister, should we hurry up, I'm afraid they'll all be bought, and when we don't Great..."

"Oh, don't worry, I'll be there soon." Cao Jing said perfunctorily.

Speaking of this, Ye Jiawen couldn't push her anymore, but seeing Cao Jing's pick and choose posture, she was afraid that she might not be able to buy a suitable coat for a while, so she said hello and hugged seven clothes in her arms. Socks for one person, stroll to the food section.

Miao was getting water in front of the shelf. There was a plastic basket at his feet, which contained several bottles of mineral water. When he was about to refill it, he realized that the shelf was empty, so he limped to the next shelf. Glimpsing Ye Jiawen across the way, the little girl seemed to be covered in an old quilt, leaving only her beautiful face, but she looked even more lovely, Miao Fang stopped in an instant.

Miao Fang's body was stiff, and he hid his left foot back, but he didn't intend to say hello.

Ye Jiawen glanced at the plastic basket, knowing that although Miao Fang spoke harshly, she was considerate at critical moments, so she took the initiative to say, "I bought so much water."

"Don't think too much, I bought them all for myself."

Ye Jiawen wanted to use this to settle the suspicion, but unexpectedly the boy was still so mean. She stood aside, wanting to wait for the boy to leave before getting water.

But in the end, she still couldn't bear the grievance, and took a deep breath: "If you have an opinion on me, you can say it now, there is no need to do this."

Miao Fang paused as he bent over to release the water: "Heh, what can I say to you, this is the first time we've met."

Ye Jiawen's eyes flickered, and her tone suddenly became flustered: "Did you know me before?"

Miao Fang glanced at her: "No."

Ye Jiawen stared at Miao Fang for a while, and the two of them looked at each other from a distance of more than five meters across the aisle.

The shelf for buying snacks is just two steps away, but Ye Jiawen, holding her socks and bowing her head, rushed away with her thoughts on her mind. She didn't even hear Zhao Dongxiang greet her, and then turned back to the place where she was buying clothes, but Cao Jing's was nowhere to be seen. figure.

She shuttled among the half-person-high piles of clothes, calling, "Sister Cao Jing, are you there?"

No one answered, Ye Jiawen only said that Cao Jing went to the cashier, turned around and was about to leave when the lights suddenly went out.

The entire supermarket was plunged into darkness, and Ye Jiawen exclaimed, "Why is there a power outage? Sister Cao Jing, where are you?"

There was no response to several consecutive shouts, and the surrounding area was eerily quiet.Ye Jiawen's heart was beating like a drum, she stayed where she was and didn't dare to move, she struggled from her cotton coat to her trouser pocket, trying to use her mobile phone to light up.

Ye Jiawen felt a chill down her spine, as if someone was watching her in the dark...

She frantically turned on the light on her phone, and slowly moved around, but when she finally saw what was in front of her eyes, her hands shook, and the phone fell to the ground...

There are two rows of "people" standing in front of her. The front one is not even two fists away from her. The smooth polymer material is painted in flesh-colored, trying to disguise the human texture. The eyes, the shabby eyelashes, and the blood-red lips all betray that they are not real.

"Ah... this is..."

Ye Jiawen wanted to retreat, but her legs were as limp as noodles. Even though she knew that those were just plastic dolls and could not cause her any harm in essence, the uncanny valley effect made her terrified.

Ye Jiawen comforted herself not to overreact, picked up the phone, but suddenly trembled...

No, before the power outage, she and Cao Jing went all over the clothing area, why didn't she remember seeing so many plastic dummies?

Suddenly a chill ran down my spine.

Ye Jiawen turned around stiffly, and pointed the light at the face of the dummy model...

!!!

I saw the eyeballs painted by inferior oil paints looking at her!

"what--!!!"

Ye Jiawen screamed in fright, and the lights turned on instantly.
