Comprehensive fear: this dead heroine

Stan's mother is called Alice, she is a very beautiful woman, Stan's handsome appearance is inherited from her mother.

Stan's father died on the battlefield when he participated in the Vietnam War when he was young. Alice is not married and lives alone with Stan.

Alice is a teacher at the school and has a legitimate job. However, in a small town like Derry, the teacher's salary is not high, and she can barely maintain the lives of the two of them, mother and child.

Although life is very poor, Alice does her best to give Stan the best she can give.

She is a good mother, she raised Stan very well.

Lunch has been prepared, all of which are very simple dishes, milk sandwiches, and a large bowl of corn chowder. Although they are all very simple meals, Alice has put a lot of thought into them. The plates are all matched. It looks like It makes people feel very appetizing.

"Stan, you're back, you look as dirty as a little monkey, what did you and Ricky do?"

Zuo Si smiled, and replied obediently: "We went to the woods next to the town."

She said, walking towards the bathroom, ready to wash her hands and face, she promised those friends that she would not tell what they did, it was their secret.

If it was the former Zuo Si, they asked a lot of questions, maybe they would tell the truth, but after being transferred/taught by Qin Yue, Zuo Si learned a lot about the world, what's more, she didn't lie, but she didn't tell all the truth. It's just a matter of saying it.

After washing up and coming out of the bathroom, Alice had already sat down at the dining table, with a strange expression on her face, watching Zuo Si hesitate to speak.

Zuo Si blinked and looked at Alice strangely: "What's wrong?"

Alice lowered her eyes and put away the thoughts in her eyes: "It's nothing, eat quickly, the corn soup won't taste good when it's cold."

There was something wrong with Alice's tone, but Zuo Si could only tell that something was wrong with her tone. She looked up at Alice and narrowed her eyes slightly.

She seemed to know something, but she chose to keep it secret from her. Zuo Si felt that if others didn't want to tell, even if she asked, she wouldn't be able to find anything. put food.

Probably because of the poor family conditions, the portion of lunch is not much. Zuo Si is now using the body of a young boy. A 13-year-old boy is just growing up. In addition, he followed those friends in the morning Because of building the dam together, she consumed a lot of energy. Even though she ate everything in front of her, Zuo Si still felt empty in her stomach.

The powerful digestive system allows the food that was originally used to satisfy the hunger to stay in the stomach for a while. Before her brain can feel the fullness from the big belly, the food is melted by the stomach acid in her stomach Two clean.

Zuo Si had already finished eating the food in front of her. She raised her head and glanced at Alice who was sitting opposite. She ate very slowly and her movements were very elegant. It didn't look like she was eating simple food, but rather eating What a delicious meal in general.

The stomach seemed to start to growl, Zuo Si glanced towards the kitchen, wondering if there would be something to eat in it, Alice didn't look up, but seemed to know what Zuo Si was thinking.

"We eat these at noon.

Zuo Si was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but thought of the conditions of the Stan family, he didn't say what was on his lips.

"I'm off to take a nap."

She made an appointment with those friends to play in the woods in the afternoon, and she had to get a good rest before Ricky came to call her.

"Go." Alice raised her head, and bent the corner of her mouth towards Zuo Si, showing an expression that was close to a smile.

Seeing her appearance, Zuo Si was stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything, turned around and walked upstairs.

The wooden stairs creaked and creaked, and the sounds were connected in a series. The originally meaningless sounds seemed to have become someone's whispers.

The voice was sharp and thin, like a man's voice, and like a woman's voice.

"Do you want to float, I can let you float, come down with me, Stan, there are many friends of yours here, you can float together like them..."

It was hard for those creaking voices to utter so many words, Zuo Si ignored the voices and continued to walk upstairs.

"Don't you want to play with me? There are many interesting things here, a beautiful new home, all kinds of military uniforms, and you can float, like a balloon..."

While talking, a glowing red thing squeezed out from the narrow gap of the stairs. It was flat at first, but after being squeezed out, it grew bigger and bigger, and soon became a red thing as big as a child's head. balloon.

There is a long thread attached to the red balloon, and a palm-sized doll is tied to the end of the thread.

It flew up waddlingly, and the puppet dangled back and forth in front of Zuo Si.

The appearance of the puppet is very familiar, even though it has been many years and traveled to another world, Zuo Si still clearly remembers the appearance of that person.

The doll clearly looks like Roco, and only a vampire can have such a beautiful face.

Seeing Luo Ke's appearance again, Zuo Si's expression was in a trance for a moment. When the parents said goodbye that day and heard her news again, she had already left that world. She and Qin Yue thought that they still had a long time to spend together. Not a single photo was left behind, and Luo Ke only lived in their memory in the long years to come.

Zuo Si thought that she had forgotten Luo Ke's appearance, but when she saw him again, she realized that Luo Ke's face had always been imprinted in the depths of her mind, and the traces had never faded.

She stopped, the stairs under her feet stopped creaking, but the voice of talking still continued.

"Want to see her? Come with me, you will meet your beloved girl, you will float underground together, I will accompany you, she will accompany you, you will always be together..."

The voice became lower and lower, like a devil whispering in the ear, luring people into the abyss of hell.

Unsteady children are easily bewitched, led by the nose by such a voice, and involuntarily fall into the dream it has constructed.

It's just that what he's eyeing this time is not a real child. After going through all kinds of strange things, and encountering such things in such a world, even a fool would know that there is something wrong. She took another look and was still floating. The doll with Rocco's face opened and closed its mouth and called out her name: "Stan, come and stay with me, I want to be with you..."

Zuo Si curled his lips, stretched out his hand, and pulled the little man and the balloon aside.

Rocco would never say such disgusting things to her.

Seeing that Zuo Si seemed unmoved and not tempted at all, the little puppet opened its mouth and screamed loudly.

"Stan, Stan~ how can you bear it? Stan, hurry up and accompany me~~"

Its voice was shrill and sharp, and it kept reverberating in the room. There was a restaurant not far downstairs. Alice was sitting in the restaurant having lunch. Plan to come up and check it out.

Either she didn't hear it, or she heard it and pretended not to hear it, Zuo Si felt that the former seemed more likely.

The puppet was still screaming, and Zuo Si's eardrums were buzzing. She glanced at the puppet, and continued walking upstairs without stopping.

The wooden stairs began to make that creaking sound again, but this time, the creaking sounds were not connected together.

Zuo Si quickly walked to the second floor, and she returned to her room, forgetting about the balloon floating behind her and the screaming puppet.

The moment the door closed, the screaming stopped, and the world became quiet. Zuo Si picked out his ears, and felt that the humming ears felt much more comfortable.

After a busy morning, I sweat a lot on my body. It is already early summer and the temperature is a bit high. After sweating, my body exudes an indescribable sour smell.

Stan will regard this smell as a symbol of a man. According to his personality, he doesn't know how to wash, and just nests on the bed. This is something Zuo Si wouldn't do. She took off her clothes and looked Looking at the young man's slender and fair body in the mirror, he turned and went into the bathroom to wash up.

There was a sound of rushing water, and a red balloon wobbled in through the half-opened window. The balloon circled around the room, and finally landed on the pile of clothes that Zuo Si had taken off.

With a bang, the red balloon exploded, and the blood wrapped in the balloon splashed down, and the dark green Scout uniform was soon soaked in blood, turning dark red.

When Zuo Si came out of the bathroom wrapped in clear floral pants after taking a shower, what he saw was his scout uniform soaked in blood.

The blood did not know where it came from, except for the place where her clothes were, there was no trace of blood soaked in other places, Zuo Si frowned and turned to enter the bathroom.

After a while, Zuo Si came out of the bathroom, holding the trash can in her hand, and walked straight to the blood-stained clothes.

After stuffing the suit into the trash can, and taking the toilet paper to wipe off the blood stained on the ground, Zuo Si sniffed, but he didn't smell the sweet and greasy smell of blood in the air.

It's really strange, there is so much blood, but there is no bloody smell at all.

Zuo Si shook his head, went downstairs with the trash can, and poured the blood-stained clothes into the trash can at the door. Zuo Si took his flip-flops and walked towards the house with steady steps.

Just walking to the gate, Zuo Si heard someone calling her name behind her.

She paused in her footsteps, and turned her head to look over.

Luo Ke, who was wearing a white dress, stood under the sun, holding a string of colorful prayers in her hands, and the smile on her face was brighter than the sun.

"Stan, I'm coming for you~~"

Zuo Si glanced at her expressionlessly, then turned and entered the house.

That thing will not be Rocco.

The figure holding the balloon outside the door distorted, and Roco's beautiful face became ugly. The skin on her face peeled off, revealing a face that seemed to be painted with red paint.

"I will find you, I will drive you crazy, I will be your nightmare, I will make your nightmare come true, I will be the sum of all your fears..."

It sang such a strange ballad in a strange tone, it looked at the closed door, its eyes seemed to penetrate the door, and saw the person in the room.

It saw her go upstairs as if nothing had happened, it saw her return to her room, it saw her lie down on the bed and fall asleep.

impossible, impossible...

As soon as the man dressed as a clown let go, those colorful balloons floated up and rose into the sky above the small town of Derry.

Its prey, its delicacies, can never escape its palm.

Be afraid, be afraid, I can see the deepest secret in your heart...

The sun is getting hotter and hotter, and the air seems to melt under the sunlight.

The grotesque clown had disappeared, and the streets were deserted, without a soul, as if the whole town had vanished.

Zuo Si was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and the old electric fan made creaking noises beside him. It had been working for an unknown number of years, and things that were supposed to be eliminated were still fulfilling their mission. Bring a touch of coolness to people who are troubled by heat.

Zuo Si slept soundly, she was dreaming, and she knew she was dreaming.

In the dream was a large area of ​​thick fog. The originally formless fog seemed to have a shape in the dream. She touched something very stiff and smelled the thick stench and fishy smell in the air. .

This was not a beautiful dream, but she was stuck in a dream and could not wake up.

She was walking in a dream, and the road under her feet was winding and seemingly endless.

I don't know how long it took, maybe it was a short time, maybe it was a long time, when Zuo Si opened her eyes, the dream was over, she woke up, and at the same time, she also forgot what she had just experienced in the dream.

She lay blankly on the bed, looking at the mottled ceiling above her head, wondering what she was thinking.

"Stan, Stan, my God, you're still sleeping, aren't you?"

Ricky's voice came in from outside the window, Zuo Si turned his head, and saw Ricky lying on the window.

He seemed to be running over, his forehead was covered with sweat, and the brown-red hair was lying wet on both sides of his cheeks. Ricky looked at Zuo Si and shouted again: "Stan, get up quickly, we should go over .”

When they said goodbye in the morning, they made an appointment to go to the grove to repair the dam. When a boy of Ricky's age is really interested in these things, it is always fun to do some silly things with friends. .

Zuo Si shook his drowsy head, sat up from the bed, Ricky outside waved to Zuo Si, and said with a smile: "Hurry up, it won't be so good if you go late."

Zuo Si nodded, seeing Ricky's figure disappearing from the window, she was a little curious, got up and ran to the window quickly.

Stan's room is on the second floor, and she doesn't know how that guy Ricky climbed up. She poked her head out and saw Ricky crawling down the water pipe next to him like a nimble little monkey. After a while, he fell to the ground. Ricky looked up, and his eyes met Zuo Si's.

"Stan, what are you doing? Come down now!"

"I'll be right there."

Zuo Si changed into a set of clean and durable clothes, and slid down the water pipe following Ricky's example.

Ricky was already waiting outside the gate, fiddling with a wooden carved bird in his hand, he didn't even notice where Zuo Si came from.

"Ricky."

Zuo Si walked to Ricky's side and called him. Her voice was obviously not too loud, but she seemed to have frightened Ricky, and the wooden bird in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.

The bird's neck was long and thin, and after falling to the ground, the bird's neck broke directly.

Ricky let out a cry, squatted down and picked up the half-broken wooden bird.

"God, Stan, look what you've done?"

Ricky tried to put the two halves of the bird together, but the neck was completely broken, where is he saying that he can connect it?

"Stan!"

Ricky was so angry that he raised his head and looked angrily at Zuo Si in front of him: "Look at the good things you did."

Zuo Si looked at the broken wooden bird, and said dully, "I'm sorry, Ricky, I didn't mean it."

Ricky stared at Zuo Si, gasping for breath with anger, he wanted to say something at first, but seeing Zuo Si's clean eyes as clear as streams, he couldn't say what he wanted to say.

What should he say?

The young man's anger came quickly and dissipated quickly. This matter was not Zuo Si's fault alone, and it was also the reason why he didn't take it well.

"Forget it, look at your doormat, did I bully you? I didn't bully you, right? Don't be like a little girl, always put on a crying face, give me a smile, I'll forgive you if you smile you."

Zuo Si hooked the corners of his mouth and revealed a smile.

Although it was a shallow smile, but because of Stan's handsome appearance and Zuo Si's unique temperament, this smile had a special taste.

Ricky's face turned red inexplicably, why didn't he feel that Stan looked so comfortable before?

In order to hide his embarrassment, Ricky coughed and walked out of the town first, Zuo Si followed behind him, and the two walked out of the town one after the other.

Halfway through the journey, the two met Beverly who had just come out of the house. When she saw Zuo Si, her eyes lit up immediately.

"Stan~~"

Beverly jumped up, beckoned to Zuo Si, then quickly ran towards her, and walked out of the town side by side with her.

Being ignored by Beverly, Ricky turned his head resentfully, and looked at Beverly standing side by side with Zuo Si behind him.

"Am I a transparent person? God, Beverly, why do you only see Stan but not me? Is my presence so weak in your eyes?"

Beverly turned her head to look at Ricky, she stuck out her tongue at Ricky, and said with a smile: "Of course not, didn't I see you now, Ricky, you don't care about these things with me, do you?" ?”

Beautiful people always have privileges, especially a beautiful girl like Beverly, who is even more privileged. Ricky was not really angry at first, when Beverly said that, those little things in his heart The stagnant atmosphere completely dissipated.

"Okay, I'll forgive you this time, and next time you can't treat me as transparent."

"of course."

Because of Beverly's joining, the inexplicable embarrassment between Ricky and Zuo Si disappeared. He took two steps back and walked side by side with the two of them.

Along the way, Beverly stayed by Zuo Si's side, talking to her about various topics.

Zuo Si, who was not very good at chatting, kept responding with um, huh, and Ricky on the other side rolled his eyes, wondering when Stan became like this.

He remembered that although Stan was a bit introverted in the past, when he was with little girls, he would definitely talk without end. Now everything seems to be reversed, and the person who talks endlessly has become a little girl. Fortunately, he never said a complete and coherent sentence.

What's wrong with this guy?Could it be that he has suffered from shyness syndrome in adolescence?

Of course, Ricky kept all these words in his heart and did not reveal them. In order not to embarrass Beverly, he would chat a few words along Beverly's topic, but obviously, Beverly It seemed that all the attention was put on Zuo Si, and the attention given to him was basically zero.

In the end, Ricky also felt a little bored, shut his mouth and didn't talk, he felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't know whether the discomfort was aimed at Beverly or Stan.

The boy's heart was tangled, his face was wrinkled, and the stagnation in his heart piled up more and more, and there was no way to dispel it from his heart.

He is crazy.

Ricky thought so.

Just walking to the edge of the town, Ben in a gray shirt ran over. He was really too fat, but it was only such a short distance. The fat is trembling.

Originally, the three of us were together, and after adding a new friend, Ricky, who had always felt uncomfortable before, became more comfortable.

Because Ben was treated the same as him, and was also ignored by Beverly.

Ben likes Beverly, his fishy smell hangs all over his fleshy face, and Ricky can see that.

It's just a pity that Ben's liking is just unrequited love, and Beverly obviously doesn't have that kind of meaning for him.

Looking at it this way, Ban is a bit more pitiful than him.

Thinking of this, Ricky felt a bit of sympathy in his heart. He raised his hand, patted Ben on the shoulder, and showed an expression you know.

class:"……"

After leaving the town, the four of them turned to the path leading to the woods. This road was very narrow, and only two people could walk side by side. Ricky and Ben walked towards the woods first, Beverly and Zuo Si and the other two followed them and walked inside together.

Along the way, Beverly racked her brains to chat with Zuo Si. She wanted to find out topics that Zuo Si was interested in, and wanted to chat with her more, but Zuo Si, who had a nice voice, only treated her perfunctorily.

Beverly is different from ordinary girls. She is very bold. Whatever is on her mind, she directly says what she wants to say: "Stan, do you not like me?"

Zuo Si's eyes widened, and he looked at Beverly in a daze. She was a very beautiful girl with a very passionate personality. No one would dislike a girl like this.

"No." Zuo Si shook his head and said seriously, "I like you very much."

Hearing Zuo Si's words, and seeing her clear lake-like eyes, Beverly blushed, showing a rare hint of shyness.

"I like you too."

With that said, Beverly tiptoed and kissed Zuo Si on the cheek.

Ben and Ricky, who turned around when they heard the voice, happened to see this scene, and they were stunned, as if they couldn't believe what they saw.

What are you kidding?Are they blind?

After the kiss, Beverly became more and more shy. Like a frightened little rabbit, she turned and ran away.

Zuo Si slowly raised his sleeves and wiped the saliva marks on his face.

This is her, was teased?Being teased by a girl under 12 years old?

What happened just now didn't leave a slight ripple in Zuo Si's heart, she still walked through the stunned Ben and Ricky in the same dead form as before.

"It's crazy."

Ricky patted his red face, turned and continued walking towards the dam they built.

It's just a kiss on the face, what's the big deal.

Ben was obviously much more impacted than Ricky. Beverly was the girl he liked, and the girl he liked kissed another boy. This is really a sad thing.

His first love died before it blossomed...

By the time the four of them arrived at the half-finished dam, Billy and Eddie were already waiting there.

"My God, you guys are so slow to come, Eddie and I both have a lot of work."

Billy just said something casually, with a bit of complaint in his tone, and the thin Eddie stood beside Billy and imitated Billy and said: "We have an appointment to meet here at 01:30, you guys It's too late."

Beverly took a step forward, and looked at Billy and Eddie with her waist down: "It's not that we are late, it's obvious that you two came too early, okay?"

As soon as Beverly spoke, the little resentment in Billy's heart dissipated, and he waved his hand to overturn it.

"Okay, okay, this matter is over, let's not talk about it, since everyone is here, let's work quickly."

Neither Ben nor Ricky had any objections, and Zuo Si naturally had no objections either. Everyone dispersed, and worked together with each other, and they were very busy.

The construction of the dam was proposed by Billy. During the rainy season, the dam on the west side of Derry burst, destroying a lot of fields. It is said that some people were also drowned and their bodies floated along the river for a long time. When the corpse was found, the corpse was so damaged that the original appearance could not be seen. The people in the town could also tell who he was by the clothes on his body, and then his corpse was taken back by the family for burial.

When the corpse was picked up, Billy also ran to join in the fun. He had never seen a dead person before, and wanted to learn more. When he saw the corpse surrounded by the crowd, Billy would rather he hadn't seen anything. arrive.

After returning that day, Billy developed a high fever. He had a fever for many days, and it kept coming back and forth, with no sign of improvement. When he was about to recover, something else happened.

Billy had never seen a corpse before, but within a few days later, he saw two corpses, one belonged to a stranger, while the other belonged to his closest relative.

In a daze, Billy took the rope-cutting knife and slashed straight at the back of his hand. If the stroke was real, his hand might be useless.

A hand reached out from the stab, grabbed Billy's wrist, and stopped him from scratching his hand.

Billy suddenly came back to his senses, looked sideways, and found that it was Zuo Si who grabbed his wrist. Billy stared blankly at Zuo Si, and asked stupidly, "Why did you grab me?"

Zuo Si let go of his hand, and said calmly, "You almost scratched your own hand."

Just now Billy seemed to be in a daze, and directly took a knife to cut his own hand. Zuo Si saw that scene, and naturally wanted to stop it. How could she watch a child get hurt in front of her eyes.

When Billy came back to his senses, he remembered his unconscious actions just now, and he was very grateful to Zuo Si for saving him.

"Thank you, Stan."

Zuo Si waved his hand, and after saying that you're welcome, he started to get busy again.

She carefully tied the cut wooden stakes of the same size and length with hemp rope. There are some things that you either don’t do, and you have to do the best you can if you want to do them. .

She was busy working, her stomach grunting in protest as she was exhausted.

At noon, she didn't have a full meal. After she fell asleep, her body temporarily forgot the fact of being hungry. Now that she was busy, her stomach that was not filled with food began to rebel.

Zuo Si stopped his hands, stood up, and rubbed his shriveled stomach.

Billy on the side happened to see her movement, he froze for a moment, and then asked, "Stan, are you hungry?"

Zuo Si rubbed her belly and looked sideways at Billy. She didn't hide anything, and admitted that she was hungry right now.

"Well, I'm hungry."

"Did you not eat at noon?"

"I've eaten, but I'm not full. I'm still hungry."

After a moment of silence, Billy fumbled around and finally produced an unpacked box of chocolate chip cookies.

"Stan, here, here is this for you to eat. I only ate a little bit, and there is more than half of it in it. If you don't mind it, take it and eat it."

When there is no food in the stomach, it would be a very happy thing to have food to fill it up. How could Zuo Si dislike it?

"Thank you."

Don't reject other people's kindness, after accepting others' kindness, you should say thank you in time, this is something Qin Yue taught her, Zuo Si has always kept it in her mind, and has never forgotten it.

The voice of their conversation was also heard by several other people. Beverly came over and stuffed two candies into Zuo Si's hands: "I don't have anything, so I'll give you the candies."

Zuo Si nodded, took the candy from Beverly's hand, and thanked her.

"Thank you, Beverly."

Beverly waved her hand towards Zuo Si, looking at her handsome face, Beverly blushed, and ran to work again.

After coming over for a while, Ban also came over. He could eat like this, so he naturally had a lot of food on his body. Although he was staying at his aunt's house, his mother rarely wronged him in this regard.

"Here, this is for you. This is the last chicken sausage. Let me eat it."

Zuo Si looked up at Ban, and Ban turned his head away unnaturally, not wanting Zuo Si's face, Zuo Si took the sausage in his hand and thanked him in the same way.

After eating these things, Zuo Si felt much more comfortable in her stomach. She touched her stomach and stood up again, ready to continue working.

Ricky, who was chopping wood on the other side, approached Zuo Si. Looking at Zuo Si's slightly pale face, he asked, "Stan, is Auntie Alice still not giving you enough to eat?"

Zuo Si nodded, and replied: "Well, you know the situation in our family, she has worked very hard."

Ricky was silent for a while, and then said, "Why don't you come to my house to eat at night."
