[Comprehensive horror] I am convinced of this system task

"What is it?" I squinted my eyes for a long time, but the inside of the vent was too dark to see clearly.

Although it keeps banging against the lid, I feel very anxious to get in, but I really can't feel relieved.

I was planning to get the flashlight, first take a look at what it is, and put on my clothes by the way.But as soon as I thought about it, the thing inside suddenly knocked the lid away with a bang.

I turned sideways, avoiding the lid.

I didn't notice, Triangle Head also got up quietly and stood behind me.The flying cover just hit his big iron head with another bang before finally falling to the ground.I don't know if he hit the triangular head with pain, but he still didn't respond at all.

But the thing inside rushed towards me!

I wanted to avoid it, but now I was standing on a chair, there was only so much room to move around, and I almost fell off.After finally standing still, the thing has already arrived in my arms!

Originally, it was a conditioned reflex, and a series of actions were ready to throw that little thing out.I took another look at the moment of the shot, and then stopped the throwing action.

This little thing is only slightly bigger than a basketball. It feels like an elf that appeared in a magical movie. It has thin arms and legs, but it has no face. The head part is a pointed vertebral body, which makes people feel It seems a little familiar.

"This is……"

I hugged that thing and turned around in shock to look at the triangular head behind me.

"Is this your son?"

The triangle head seemed to be approaching, but it seemed to stumble after I finished saying this sentence.

I took another look at the little triangle head in my arms.It stood up on my arm suddenly, I was startled, I thought it was going to hit me, but it jumped forward and gave me a hug on my chest.

This really stumped me.In fact, if you look closely, although it also has a pointed head, it is different from the big pyramidal head of the triangular head. Its small head is conical without obvious edges and corners.I tried to poke it, and the texture is also hard, but it is smoother, not metal, and not so rough.

"Hmm..." I looked at the little triangle and thought about it, "It doesn't feel like my own."

This little thing doesn't seem to be malicious at all, and to be honest, it's quite cute.

It's just that it's a bit awkward to lie on my chest like this all the time, not to mention that I got up in a hurry just now and I haven't put on any clothes yet.

So I was about to get off the chair, and when I got dressed first, I heard a series of chaotic footsteps in the ventilation shaft.

Before I could react, I saw several small triangles rushing over.

To be honest, a small triangle is not heavy, but several, coupled with their sprint speed, are very lethal.

This time I was really unable to stand still, and fell from the chair on my back. Fortunately, I was caught by the triangle head.

I put the one in my arms and several small triangles hanging on my body on the bed.One, two, three, four, a total of four, exactly the same.

Get dressed quickly, and then go to see them.

The four small triangles sat obediently in a row on the edge of the bed, except that they were too tall and their calves were too short to reach the ground, their sitting posture was exactly the same as that of the large one.I couldn't help but let me think about the question of whether I was born or not.

I squatted down in front of the bed so my eyes were almost on level with them.Scanning from left to right, I really can't see any difference between them.

The little triangles are really cute, they are not like ordinary kids, they don't run or jump around, they just sit on the bed with their two thin legs dangling.

It seems that they also like to stay here. Of course, I don’t know if it’s because the bed is too soft to sit on.The flustered state of being locked in the ventilation shaft before was gone. They wobbled and looked very leisurely.

I don't know why they were so anxious just now, is it just because there is no place to sleep?

Anyway, the mobile phone is quiet and there is no noise. It is expected that these little guys have no offensive power, so if you want to stay, just stay here.

But this is still Triangle Head's room after all. I turned to ask Triangle Head for his opinion, but he still didn't respond.Very good, then take it as his default, since they look so similar, they shouldn't fight each other.

I turned back to look at the four small triangles, and said to them: "Okay, since you like it so much." I paused, "But, I have to give you names to distinguish them, otherwise you all look the same. There's no way to tell who's who."

They seemed to approve of my thoughts, and they all looked at me intently.I racked my brains for a long time and finally got the result:

"Then, let's call you Little Triangle A, Little Triangle B, Little Triangle C, and Little Triangle D." I don't have much trust in my own naming ability. From the triangle of the small triangle, it can be seen whether they are satisfied with my arrangement.

The smile on my face stiffened in embarrassment: "Then, I'll take it as you guys like it, ha."

Then I looked at the triangular head behind my eyes again with a guilty conscience, but he still didn't respond.He took out his mobile phone and saw that it was only five o'clock, and he could still sleep for a while.The bed is not too big, but I think it should be no problem to carry four more small triangles.

However, just as I was about to go back to bed and sleep in the cage again, there was another slight sound of footsteps in the ventilation duct.

I yawned, thinking it was the little triangle E following in the footsteps of my companion.

The triangular head probably did what I thought. He walked under the vent where the cover hadn't been put back, ready to catch the new friends of the small triangular.

But at this moment, the four little triangles ABCD, who were sitting obediently, suddenly became agitated.

It was very similar to the situation when they hit the vent grille just now. They were not only restless, but also jumped out of the bed and ran around, as if they were looking for some hiding place.

The footsteps in the ventilation shaft are getting louder and louder, indicating that the approaching thing is getting closer, but my mobile phone makes no noise at all. Why are these little triangles so scared?

Triangle Head didn't seem to understand the current situation, standing under the ventilation shaft and didn't know what to do.Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer to the exit, I made the quickest decision.

I picked up all the little triangles and stuffed them all into the bottom of the bed.And almost at the same time, the thing that the little triangle was afraid of jumped out of the vent.

I couldn't see what it was, but felt that the speed was very fast, and it slid down from the tilted head of the triangle head and fell to the ground.

What scares Little Triangle, I always thought it was some kind of monster, even if it wasn't grotesque, it must be hideous.But when I saw it clearly, I didn't know what to do.

The one in front of me looked like a little human girl, but she was too small, about the size of a little triangle, wearing a yellow long raincoat-like clothes, with the hood pulled up, her face could not be seen.

She couldn't stand still and fell to the ground.I heard a gurgling sound, like... like the sound made when I was hungry.

But it's too loud!

I knelt down and looked at her again, and asked tentatively, "Hey little sister, are you... hungry?"

She didn't answer me either.After a while, she slowly straightened up under the light, but I was shocked!

The neckline of her raincoat and the edge of her hood were all stained with blood!

This makes me feel like a young "hunter".Moreover, seeing the violent reaction of Little Triangle before, if she is very hungry now, then what she wants to eat is... Little Triangle? !

But she doesn't look like a zombie at all, she still looks like a very normal child. To me who is much older than her, she is not harmful at all, and the triangle head standing next to her doesn't respond.

Behind me is the bed, and the four small triangles are hiding under it. She seems to be looking there intentionally or unintentionally. I'm afraid she has already discovered the small triangles.

But no matter what, I have no way to let her eat the little triangle like this.Even if she was hungry and looked pitiful, there was nothing she could do.

Hungry?That's right, I have something to eat!

I gestured for the triangle head to throw my backpack over, not because I wanted to yell at him on purpose, but because I really didn't know if she would jump directly at the little triangles under my bed if I got out of the way.

"Pfft", the backpack fell firmly into my hands.I quickly rummaged through it. In fact, there were not many things left, but when I found what I wanted, I hesitated.

Of the compressed biscuits Moore gave me at the time, there was only one left in the last pack.

I am already very frugal, but there are only a few packets in total, coupled with the physical exertion I have experienced in the world, it is really unbearable.

When he was hesitating, a little triangle behind him suddenly ran out for some reason, and the little girl in yellow was attracted to her gaze, ready to move, but the little triangle that ran out was quickly caught by another one. Drag it back under the bed.

I gritted my teeth, reached into the bag and took out the last compressed biscuit, put it on the palm of my hand, and stretched it out in front of the little girl in yellow.

She took a few steps back as if frightened by me.

This feeling reminds me of feeding feral cats.It turned out that although I didn't eat well, I was still happy to feed the cats casually, and even the stray cats in our neighborhood were the fattest.At first they won't trust you and are full of doubts about the food. If you give it any more at this time, the cat will run away immediately.

The behavior of this little girl is the same as that of those cats.So I didn't take the initiative to send it forward, but just held the biscuit in my hand and remained motionless.

"Take it and eat it, I hope you can let go of those little triangles." I whispered, never in my mother's life would I have such a gentle voice.

The stalemate lasted for a long time, and the triangle head who had been by the side couldn't bear it anymore.He was about to come over when I glared at him and returned to standing quietly again.

Finally, the little girl seemed to be unable to bear the hunger, and slowly approached my palm.Before touching the cookie, he looked up at me.

I still didn't move, and she became more courageous.Compressed biscuits should still be relatively heavy for her. She lifted the biscuit vigorously with both hands, sat down on the spot and began to gobble it up.

The author has something to say: Good night~

Both the little triangle and the little girl in yellow are from the game Little Nightmares (the translation is Little Nightmares, see the comments and it is also called Little Nightmares)

In fact, it has nothing to do with the third brother...

Let’s just say it doesn’t involve spoilers. In fact, the little girl’s presence here reflects Xavier’s hostility and distrust of other people for a certain period of time when he was a child, and the subsequent transformation process.
