Resurrected

There is no sunlight in the underground world, and the only lighting is those artificial light sources.

However, even such a fire is faint and dim, and it seems that it will go out at any time.

This is a world that belongs only to darkness.

Chen Lin was walking in the narrow and long aisle, and the lights on the road passed behind him one by one. The lights flickered, flickering, flickering, giving people a psychedelic feeling, as if walking forward in a space-time tunnel.

Finally, he stopped in front of a door, which was Xu Jia's room.

The room was quiet, without a single sound, as if no one was there.However, Chen Lin's nose, which has become sensitive after exercise, can clearly smell the smell of blood in the house - he can't count how many times he has smelled this pungent smell, the smell of blood is indispensable to this underground world part.

Just as he was about to reach out to knock on the door, Chen Lin saw that the door was already ajar. He hesitated for a moment, but pushed the door open and walked in.

It was darker inside the house than outside, and there was no light at all.

This was not in line with Xu Jia's nature. Chen Lin knew that this little girl was most afraid of the dark, and it was impossible for him to stay in such a dark and boundless environment.

"Xu Jia?"

He called softly, but no one answered.

The room was empty, only his own echo, as quiet as if there was no other person.But Chen Lin didn't know that Xu Jia was in this room, and he heard her exhale.

After his eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, Chen Lin discovered where Xu Jia was.

She just huddled in a corner of the wall, hugging herself tightly like a wounded animal.Chen Lin could see the injury on her left shoulder. Although it had been roughly bandaged, red spots were coming out of the bandage bit by bit.Xu Jia hugged her arm too hard, as if the wound had been torn open.

Chen Lin took a step closer to her.

"you……"

"No! Don't come here!" Xu Jia suddenly yelled hysterically. "Don't come, don't come!"

She trembled in the dark, and regarded every creature that approached her as an enemy. For Chen Lin, her eyes were full of resentment.

"Why! Why me!"

"Why is no one coming to save me!"

"Why didn't you remind me!"

Xu Jia, who was in a state of madness, seemed to have lost her reason. Her voice was low and hoarse, with a tone of madness.Seeing her crazy appearance, Chen Lin stopped and waited quietly for her to calm down.

This normally cheerful and lively girl seemed to have completely immersed herself in another emotion.She slowly raised her head and looked at Chen Lin.

"I went to work as a cleaner yesterday."

Chen Lin listened quietly, and Xu Jia's calm tone concealed madness.

"Before I went, I didn't know that there would be so many corpses and so much blood."

Chen Lin suddenly realized that it seemed that Xu Jia received the job of a public cleaner, exactly the same as him that day.

"Actually, I'm really scared. There's so much blood on the ground, and many people have their eyes open. They're lying on the ground, their chests are torn apart, and they stare at me with unrepentant eyes." Xu Jia's voice was trembling, "As if they were asking why they died. It's not me, why didn't I die with them!"

"I really want to escape, I really want to escape, but I dare not. I can only bravely carry the corpses with other people. In fact, I don't want to touch those dead people at all. I don't want to! I'm afraid of them It will suddenly jump up and take me away with me, I'm so scared!"

For a girl, suddenly coming to a room full of corpses and asking her to do that kind of thing amidst the blood and terror in the room, Xu Jia couldn't help being afraid.Although she is not stupid, and a little clever girl, but after all, she is just a girl who wants to rely on.

"At that time, I was really scared. I thought of you, captain. I thought I must tell the captain when I go back, and stop doing these jobs in the future! Let's just live in peace!"

Chen Lin was startled, he didn't expect that Xu Jia at that time would still think of him, and wanted to remind himself.As for him, no matter when he was in danger, he would never think of reminding others.

He is just that selfish.

"You..." Chen Lin's throat was a little hoarse, "What's the matter with the injury on your body?"

Xu Jia looked at him and laughed bitterly.

"Because I accidentally dropped the corpse I was carrying on the ground and knocked off its head. This is punishment."

Punishment, will there be such a punishment for mistakes in cleaning work?

"I broke it on purpose." Xu Jia's voice suddenly became a little strange, "I deliberately broke its head, I'm afraid they will find out, so they punished me."

"deliberately?"

"Yeah, because I hate its eyes. It stares at me, as if I was the one who killed it, as if it wants to drag me to be buried with it! I don't want to, I don't want to! So, I want to let it go again You can't stare at me either." Xu Jia's voice was hoarse. "I succeeded, but I was also punished."

Chen Lin understood her feeling, thinking that he was also horrified by the gloomy eyes of those corpses.

What they are afraid of is not the corpse, but some kind of warning brought by the corpse, the threat of death.

"Later, Lao Liu told me that you already knew that this job was like this, didn't you, Captain?"

Chen Lin did not deny Xu Jia's question.

"Yes, I already knew."

"You didn't tell me!" Xu Jia seemed angry, "You knew the danger, but you didn't warn me! It's a shame that I trust you so much, so..."

"So you want to use me?" Chen Lin asked back.

Xu Jia's eyes widened all of a sudden, as if she couldn't believe that Chen Lin would say that to her. "You, how dare you..."

"Why don't I dare? Just because you were injured and I didn't tell you the danger in advance, I have to feel guilty to you and let you vent it?" Chen Lin said: "I am not someone to you, and I have no obligation to protect you. Perhaps, you followed me because you thought I could provide you with shelter, but now you are disappointed, right?"

"The first time I did these tasks, no one warned me. I didn't have anyone to rely on, and I didn't want to rely on anyone. And the reason why you hurt is not because of me, but because of yourself " Chen Lin said slowly: "You have anger towards this underground world in your heart, and you are hurt because you can't hide it."

Xu Jia's usual laughing appearance is just a temporary manifestation of suppressing the restlessness and fear in her heart. In this underground world, no one will not be unaffected. If she keeps suppressing, it will inevitably cause some psychological distortion.Chen Lin didn't want her to become a pervert like Old Liu.

He also said: "No one has the responsibility to protect you. The only person in the world who can save you is yourself. Similarly, the only person who can hurt you here is yourself."

"Then you! Don't tell me you didn't make any mistakes at all!" Xu Jia was angry, "You are wise and safe, you gave up on me, isn't this the truth?!"

"Yes." Chen Lin did not avoid her anger, "These are facts, but now I regret it. I admit that I was afraid of Lao Liu and the unspoken rules of this underground world, so I gave up on you. I used to think that as long as I kept myself, I would be fine." , but now I realize that I was wrong, many things cannot be given up."

A brilliance flashed in his eyes, like a kindling that ignited the darkness.

"It's impossible to change anything with one person's power, and one person's resistance is meaningless." He said, reaching out his hand to Xu Jia. "I want to leave here, I want to destroy this twisted world. I want to turn back into a human being, and I can't do this alone. I need companions. I swear, I won't give up any teammates again, no Will ignore any partner again, I want to change this underground world. Would you like to join, Xu Jia?"

The anger in her eyes was replaced by fear, and Xu Jia looked at the figure standing in front of her in disbelief.

I saw that there was no shame or deceit in his eyes, only magnanimity.This guy, who was supposed to turn against him, has now extended an invitation to him, and what he wants to plot is even more appalling!

"You're crazy!" she said.

Is Chen Lin crazy?He kind of thinks so himself, because he has a bigger plan in mind.

Shhh, can't tell anyone yet.

Tang Kexin casually threw away the dagger.

There was so much dirty blood on it that he didn't want to touch it anymore.

The people in this room were worthless, and his job this time was to clean them up. In order not to dirty his long knife, he randomly found a dagger to complete the slaughter.

Yes, this can only be described as massacre.Against a group of people who are helpless, this job is meaningless at all.

He felt inexplicably agitated.

"Hey, Old Seven." A figure standing by the door smiled and said to him, "The movements are still as neat as ever."

Tang Kexin walked out of the room without even looking at him.

The figure didn't seem to care, just looked at the piles of dead bodies in the house, and sighed.

"Nothing. This time, I still haven't been able to pry anything from these secret workers on the surface. Tsk, what do the corpse pickers do now? It's fine if they can't get information, but they still use these precious resources to train novices .”

Tang Kexin stopped suddenly.

The novice training of the corpse pickers, this group of surface spies who look like walking corpses?

He finally knew how Chen Lin's bloody smell came from yesterday.

"That novice killed someone here?" Tang Kexin asked suddenly.

"Yeah, I killed several of them, and I'm brave enough. I don't know if it will be of any use in the future."

Hearing this, Tang Kexin became even more irritable.

Thinking that Chen Lin once stood in this room and slaughtered these half-useless people like himself, his heart felt like a stone was blocked.

Chen Lin's changes were beyond his control, and he didn't like this feeling.
