Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 1753: Anna’s discovery

"So you were injured like this," An Ran sighed with a sad look on his face: "The evolver who can block the knife for us... I'm afraid you are the only one in the entire Fanjia City."

Ye De cleared his throat sheepishly.

Except when he had to find a visa, most of the time, he didn't even remember that he was an evolver; he could withstand a little more damage than the people in front of him, so he stopped and let the damage fall more on himself. Just a little bit on your body, it’s that simple. It's not a spirit of self-sacrifice, but more like...a rational allocation of resources.

"That's not important. How are your eyes?" He changed the subject and looked at the cloth wrapped around An Ran's face. "Wooden thorn...taken out?"

Ye De tried his best to avoid the issue of "mutation" - for An Ran, it must be a heartache that he didn't want to mention. He seems to be quite calm. He probably has the mutation under control and may not be able to live like a normal person in the future.

The young man with half his face wrapped in cloth nodded.

"Thanks to Anna," he glanced at his sister, smiled at her and said, "Who wouldn't be afraid of an injury like mine? But she could clean my wound and bandage it... Without her , I really don’t know what to do on my own."

Anna lowered her hands and stood beside Ye De, saying nothing.

"Fortunately, you two brothers and sisters can support each other." Ye De shook his head, patted the armrest of the chair under him, and said, "I have had enough rest. Let's go. I want to find out as soon as possible what happened in the city. What happened?"

"Are you sure? Let me take a look." An Ran said worriedly.

As he spoke, he had already approached Ye De, temporarily blocking Anna; when he bent down to look at Ye De's back, a hot and fishy smell suddenly filled Ye De's nose. Maybe An Ran never had a chance to take a shower and wipe himself, so he smelled a little bit, but the smell didn't smell like sweat - Ye De instinctively sprayed out twice and held his breath.

He was embarrassed to say anything, lowered his eyes, and happened to see Anna's hands hanging in front of her.

The two hands were tightly twisted together, as white as bloodless, as if they were trying to be twisted together, or as if they were trying to break each other. After An Ran straightened up again, he glanced at Anna - on her reappeared face, a pair of black and round eyes were also staring at him.

Ye De felt slightly uncomfortable as if he had been disturbed.

"The injury is too serious," An Ran's voice sounded from above his head. While amazed, he seemed to be a little interested: "You can actually walk into the city? The physical fitness of the evolution... So it's like this OK."

Just when Ye De was about to talk about coffee, he saw Liana's dark eyes out of the corner of his eye, so he said nothing.

"It's quite difficult for me to walk and talk now," he said, suppressing a breath from his chest.

An Ran nodded, stretched an arm under Ye De's armpit, and said "I'll help you." This was the first time since his evolution that Ye De felt so clearly the strength and physique of an ordinary person. He was as tall and strong as a rag, and he picked him up easily.

...The smell is even stronger.

It doesn’t sound like a stench, but it doesn’t smell bad. It makes people feel uncomfortable when they smell it, as if every time they inhale, a greasy worm is stuffed down the nose. , straight into the person's throat.

"Is your physical condition...still stable?" Ye De asked blurtly.

"Quite stable," An Ran replied without looking back, "I am a person with very strong self-control."

What he means is that he has never changed his shape again? It seems that only the first mutation is uncontrollable... As they gradually understand the physical condition, they should be able to stop mutating.

Ye De knew that he should feel relieved, but for some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable, but he couldn't explain why at the moment. Is there anything wrong with this sentence?

"Brother," Anna who was following behind suddenly whispered, "You are also injured, let me help you support him."

Before the two of them responded, she got under Ye De's other arm, grabbed his hand, and put his arm around her shoulders. She was small and couldn't actually provide much support; thinking that even such a little girl felt that she had to support herself, Ye De felt even more embarrassed and hurriedly said: "Ahem, why should I use you..."

He just started a sentence and stopped talking.

An Ran turned to look at him. "Isn't Anna kind and enthusiastic? There really is no better sister than her."

"...Indeed, she is such a good child." Ye De replied slowly while feeling the "SOS" Anna kept scratching in his palm.

Not many things have been passed down from human society before the apocalypse, but this concise and clear distress signal has become more popular after the apocalypse, and has spread to everyone in many worlds, even ordinary people. No exception - Anna crossed "SOS" twice and stopped.

Ye De slowly drew a question mark on her palm with his thumb.

Anna did not respond by writing, but suddenly called: "Brother."

After being startled, Ye De immediately understood, and his heart sank uncontrollably.

This is... the answer she gave herself.

"Huh?" An Ran seemed to dote on her very much and asked, "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing. I thought I saw a figure, but I just saw it wrong." Anna whispered.

In the dark and quiet city road, Ye De heard An Ran smile - he didn't laugh out loud, but Ye De could still hear the silent laugh; because when the cheek muscles pulled the lips, the corners of the mouth grinned. When opening, there will be a moist, low sound of the skin and flesh opening from the gums.

The three of them walked forward in silence for a while. The cold sweat coming out layer after layer made Ye De's wound sting. He was clearly aware that his arm was sticking to his body through his sleeve. On the back of An Ran's neck, his right wrist hanging down was tightly grasped by him, and he might not be able to break free for a while.

"Your physical condition is really bad," An Ran asked as if he was worried or assessing: "Is it a heavy burden for you to walk on such a messy road?"

Ye De just wanted to deny it, but suddenly his heart moved and he replied: "Yes."

Anna trembled slightly under his left arm; her steps were so heavy that she couldn't keep up, always trailing half a step away.

"Honestly, when I walk a little faster, I feel that my consciousness is on the verge of collapse." Before drinking coffee, Ye De was indeed struggling with fainting. He whispered: "Well... if you If you don’t mind, can you go explore the road ahead and let me take a rest?”

An Ran was silent for a while. "Where's your ability?" When he finally spoke, he asked: "Just use your ability to listen, so you don't need me to explore the way."

... He refused to leave himself and Anna.

Why?

Ye De thought of the situation when he just met Anna. She was hiding under the quilt in the corner, motionless and silent; not only did she not seem to want to reunite with her brother, she simply hoped that she would not be discovered - this "person" turned out to be her brother.

"Alas, I don't have any abilities," Ye De said hoarsely, "When I was attacked, I used my head to block most of the damage. Otherwise, how could I still be alive now... only However, the ability can no longer be used."

"Oh?" Maybe it was his imagination, but there seemed to be a layer of vague excitement in An Ran's voice. "You can't hear the message, and you can't get it out?"

"Yes," Ye De replied, "I am completely isolated from others, that's why I don't know anything."

"You have made such a big sacrifice for us, Fanjia City will never forget it." An Ran's tone sounded heavy again. When Ye De brought up the topic again, he thought about it and finally agreed: "Okay, you two sit down for a while. I won't go far. I'll come as soon as I go."

Ye De and Anna didn't look at each other. They said hello to him a few times and sat down in silence; until An Ran's figure completely disappeared in front of the dim and winding city road, they still didn't dare to speak. After waiting for a few more seconds, the little girl suddenly got up, came close to Ye De's ear, covered her mouth with one hand, and said angrily: "I don't think he is my brother."

Ye De was surprised: "What do you mean?"

"I...I don't know. When my brother was first injured...at that time, he was indeed still my brother, at least I felt... I helped him clean the wound and bandage it, and after pulling out the wood thorn, I... …”

Anna's quick wit just now seemed to have completely left her when she recalled that moment; the little girl couldn't help but fidget, as if she would bite her tongue when she spoke too fast. "After the wooden thorn was pulled out, there was a small blood hole in the eyeball, which was about half the size of the nail of my little finger."

Was she stimulated? Looking at that kind of injury from a close distance, it is indeed easy to exceed the limit of human endurance.

But what Anna said next was far beyond Ye De's expectations.

"I just felt scared at first, and I didn't dare to look at the wound at all, but when I bent down to get the cloth..." Anna's voice became lower and lower, "I felt something in my peripheral vision. The thing shook."

She couldn't help but make a sound similar to nausea in her throat. "I thought it was my own hair at the time, so I continued to pack my brother's eyes...and then I discovered that there was still hair inside."

"What else is there?"

Anna's face turned pale. "Inside the **** eyeball hole... deep inside, there is an eyeball, very small."

If he could speak, Ye De couldn't find a word at this time.

"I feel like...there's more than one. The eyeballs must be crowded, so one happened to be exposed at the hole, and I saw it again..." Anna said, tears rolling down her face. , staring at the ground and murmuring: "No, that's not right. I must have been frightened and saw it wrong, right? I also suspected that I had seen it wrong at that time ~IndoMTL.com~ But at that time, the cloth strip in my hand It was already pressed up, and I didn’t dare to pick it up again and take a closer look... Besides, my brother was also staring at me at that time."

She swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "At that time, my brother had not mutated."

As soon as the words opened up, Anna could no longer hold back and poured out all the fear that she had been holding back for who knows how long - obviously, she was still wavering between luck and fear: "You know better , do you think I saw it wrong? After all, mutants look very scary, and I know that my brother has mutated once, so it caused my misunderstanding... If I just saw strange things, I wouldn't be like this... But My brother is different from before."

"Why is it different?" Ye De asked with a dry throat.

Anna suppressed her sobs, wiped her nose as quietly as possible, and said, "He seemed to know that I was afraid of him."

"He knows?"

"I feel like he knows. But he doesn't say anything, doesn't explain to me, doesn't comfort me, just keeps staring at me." Anna whispered, "I may be crazy. But he saw me When he's scared, he seems very...happy. My brother would never treat me like this——"

Ye De held her hand and cut off what she had not finished.

When Anna noticed his gaze, she slowly raised her head together; then, Anna's teeth couldn't stop chattering.

From the dim corner of the ceiling, a long flesh-colored strip was stuck between the cracks of the brick wall, gradually spreading towards where the two were sitting, like a snake that kept expanding its body - at the head of the snake The part is an irregular shape with a black hole, wrapped in wrinkled and twisted flesh-colored shadows.

Ye De took a few seconds to realize that it was an extremely stretched ear.
