Throne of Radiance

"Is that so..."

The boy did not suspect him, and said thoughtfully: "It seems that they are probably going to help you prepare some necessary daily necessities. As you know, we haven't had any guests here for a while."

"Hey, it's raining so hard, I don't know when they will come back, I hope they don't get sick from the rain."

The boy's expression was tinged with concern.

"Yeah, I hope they don't get lost outside..." the man joked as he dragged the corpse past his feet.

"what sound……"

The boy suddenly tilted his ears.

"I was mopping the floor, it was raining so much, I walked in and got the floor wet."

"No, you are a guest, how can I trouble you? This is too rude." The boy's face was obviously flattered, and he immediately forgot his worries about his parents, and seemed to remember something instead.

He said, "Doctor Felt, please sit down temporarily. Just sit on the sofa over there. I almost forgot, do you need a cup of hot milk to drive away the cold?"

Before waiting for an answer, he already groped the wall with his palm and walked all the way. Unknowingly, he had already walked near the reception desk, not far from the nearest corpse.

He reached out and groped inside the reception desk for a while, and found a clean porcelain cup and milk powder.He connected the hot water to the water dispenser next to him with movements that were slow for normal people but already extremely proficient for him, turned sideways and poured the milk powder, and brewed it gently.

Then, he raised the cup of hot milk, looked in the direction of "Dr. Felt" with empty eyes, and said with surprise on his face, as if he wanted to share his favorite delicacy with this guest: "This It’s my favorite flavor, and I drink it every night to fall asleep.”

The steaming steam of milk covered the boy's eyes, and the corners of his lips were so bright and satisfied.

For a blind child, it is extremely difficult to be able to do this, at least it will become so proficient after accumulating countless failures.Even so, there was still a risk of burns for him.

But facing a doctor who is very likely to cure his eyes and bring him hope, it seems natural to be courteous, even at the risk of possible burns.

The boy took a few steps forward holding the milk and handed it to the other party.

Seeing his movements, the man who had just dug out a large piece of old tablecloth from the kitchen and was about to act as a shroud changed his expression, put down the old tablecloth almost reflexively, and was about to bend over a few steps forward——

A cold arm lay across the boy's path. As long as he took a few steps forward, he would be tripped and fell to the ground. It was even possible that he would fall directly on the temperatureless corpse and fall into his body. in mother's arms.

Let the harmonious atmosphere between the two be instantly broken.

only……

How will he react then?Will it scream out in fright, or just collapse?

Such a picture almost quickly appeared in "K"'s mind, and some indescribable stimulation made him curl his lips with some interest, and he was actually looking forward to it.

Just as he was about to move the corpse away immediately, he couldn't help but stop his arms, and then slowly straightened his waist.

"Doctor Felt?"

The raised milk was not picked up for a long time, and no response was heard from the other party. The boy yelled in doubt.

"Are you still there?"

"I'm here." The man's voice sounded softly, with a bit of sleepiness, "Sorry, I accidentally fell asleep on the sofa just now." Saying this, he raised his hand to take the milk glass in the boy's hand, "It's really troublesome for you."

The boy shook his head embarrassingly and laughed: "If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have come here in such a hurry. It's me who should apologize." He hastily urged with a serious face, "By the way, milk must be taken while Drink hot, you have been outside in the rain for so long, don't catch a cold."

Such a serious expression appeared on the child's face, which made people feel a little funny.

While this child who thought he was about to usher in the bright future smiled so brightly, the corpses of his parents were lying upright in front of his eyes, ready to be slaughtered like dead fish, and the murderer was regarded as his honored guest.

What a ridiculous and exciting scene!

"I'm really thirsty. Thank you for your hospitality."

Like a real guest, "K" smiled and took a sip from his milk glass.

The dim light slowly shone in the hall, and the boy who had just reached the height of the reception desk leaned against the reception desk, smiling obediently and sweetly.The guests who came from afar shook the drops of water on their clothes, and drank hot milk one mouthful at a time.If you don't look at the two corpses lying on the ground, such a scene is undoubtedly warm and harmonious.

The sound of the wind and rain outside the window became louder, and the crackling rain slapped on the window sill, and the smell of moisture mixed with dust swept in, covering up the faint smell of blood in the air.

In the sudden rush of wind and rain, the boy frowned and looked at the door, muttering: "Why haven't Mom and Dad come back..."

He straightened his head and "looked" towards the door, and even subconsciously took two steps forward.

Not far from his feet, two corpses belonging to his parents lay quietly, staring at him with wide-open eyes.

The mother's completely stiff arm lay across the front, almost half a centimeter away from the boy's toes.

And he was still waiting for them blankly.

Even "K", who directed all of this, couldn't help but find it funny in this darkly humorous drama.

The boy's feet finally lifted up again.

"K" opened his eyes wide, watching all this almost expectantly.

This is different from every accident he has experienced before, but it seems that he has learned another more interesting tragic art besides simple and brutal killing.

learned, learned.

"Ah!" The boy exclaimed, as if he tripped over something on the ground and found a "surprise".

really……

As soon as these two words were uttered in his mind, K suddenly felt dizzy, and fell backwards uncontrollably, directly on the sofa, a sense of powerlessness swept over his whole body.

--not good!

--be cheated! ! !

As soon as this thought flashed, he didn't even have the strength to do anything, and his consciousness began to sink.

For a moment when his eyes were dim, he saw that familiar little figure approaching him with an agile posture that was completely incompatible with a blind person, and he also skillfully walked away from the black umbrella beside the sofa. The raindrops shaking off the umbrella surface hit him his face.

The cold temperature made "K" barely awake for a moment, he bit the tip of his tongue hard, let the pain temporarily dominate his nerves, and with his strong will, he was about to jump up.

But the next moment, he froze completely.

The familiar umbrella tip touched his forehead.

"Hey, don't be impulsive, little guy."

"K" slowly, slowly raised his hands, looked up at the boy in front of him, and tried to pull a smile: "...people like me should be dealt with by the police. Hate went to the head."

He met a pair of very calm eyes, and he didn't look impulsive.

Such a young child can pretend to be blind as soon as he finds out that his parents were killed. He talks and laughs casually with the murderer in this house where the corpse is lying, and strikes decisively when he is paralyzed...

and many more……

A faint chill involuntarily spread in his heart.

"K" murmured subconsciously: "That glass of milk..."

"Strong sleeping pill. Didn't I say that? I drink one every night to fall asleep."

The boy tilted his head and smiled.

"K" suddenly realized.Unexpectedly, it fell into the hands of such a seemingly harmless child...

"Okay, the question and answer is over." The cold muzzle on the forehead moved, and the other party didn't even ask his real name from the beginning to the end. "Doctor Felt, you should be on your way."

"K" regained consciousness instantly: "No, wait, wait! Once you kill me..."

"—This dream is over."

The boy cut him off with a smile.

"What, what?"

"Anyway, it's not the first time I've been killed. It's the third time I've been born once, and I've been familiar with it twice. You should get used to it, doctor."

In the astonished and confused eyes of "K", the boy's tone suddenly became casual, and he bit the last two words playfully, with a bit of impatience.

"Then, see you next time, Dr. Felt."

"boom--!"

The moist moisture seeping in from the window mixed with the smell of blood in the room, and exploded with a "gunshot".

Completed a proper dubbing for this silent bullet, the boy casually moved his left hand away from his lips, retracted his umbrella with his right hand and shook a beautiful "gun flower" in the air.

Then, he raised his index finger, blew lightly, and announced:

"—Gameover!"

Following his line of sight, the bullet that entered from the forehead of "K" and flew out of the back of the head flew towards the rain curtain outside the window at an unabated speed, splashing countless water droplets.

For a moment, the world seemed to be frozen.Just like the slow motion in a movie starts to play frame by frame, the whole world is like a glass window pierced by bullets, and large cracks begin to spread along the splashing water droplets.

Then, it turned into countless splashing fragments.

The world shattered.
