"It's been too long, and I can't remember many things clearly. However, in the first week, it was calm in the shelter, and nothing special happened. Everyone had just settled down from the escape of death, and everyone was adjusting their mood. Adapt to the working environment. But I don’t know when sports management started spreading some rumors.”
"Rumors? What rumors?" Yao Ruyi's interlocking narrative style makes it really difficult to connect him with a person who has not graduated from elementary school. I am afraid that even he himself did not notice that he had successfully hung up in front of his eyes. The appetite of several people.
"It is said that people are missing inexplicably at the base, and they all happened at night." Yao Ruyi paused deliberately for Lao Xu and the others to digest and ask questions.
Sure enough, Lao Xu, who was born in the army, felt that this rumor was completely nonsense. Unless Yao Ruyi was lying, how could there be missing persons in a place under military management.
If it is okay to say that there were casualties due to fighting, but for an innocent person to disappear from a closed gymnasium for no reason, then what else could this be but nonsense?
So he had to ask again about this: "What about the result? Is this rumor true or false?"
"Hmph!" Yao Ruyi snorted coldly and said simply: "Really!"
"Really?" This time, even Tang Xiaoquan, who had always been calm, found this unbelievable. A minute ago, he only thought it was a rumor, but now Yao Ruyi was so sure of the authenticity of the matter that he couldn't help but frown. Wrinkled.
"It's true that there are a lot of people in the shelter, but there were only about a hundred people at the beginning, so it's easy to verify if there are few people you can't see. After all, most people came with their children and their children, unlike me who was alone. One." Yao Ruyi shook his head lonely.
"Didn't the army investigate this matter?"
"Investigation? How can I know this? Anyway, I found a few people to talk to and it's true."
"Is there any result in the end? We can't just let this matter go unnoticed."
"Well, a notice was posted, and the result was very simple. It said that the missing person had sneaked out by digging a passage between the base and the outside world."
"Nonsense!" Lao Xu slapped his big hand on the table: "What the hell kind of logic is this? Is it possible to dig a passage? What do the people in the army do for food?"
Looking at the angry old Xu, Yao Ruyi smiled helplessly: "Haha, Captain Xu also thinks this matter is unreliable, right? But this is the fact, this is the investigation result given by the stadium. Not only that, after this matter is over, , they implemented stricter management and confiscated almost all of our tools and knives. They also began to arrest so-called party members and suspects. However, as a result, the disappearances did not change. Someone would disappear almost every few days. "
"What? There's more?" If Lao Xu and the others could barely accept what Yao Ruyi said just now, then now...
"The troops' explanation this time won't be that someone is cutting through the wall again."
Facing Lao Xu's question, Yao Ruyi spread her hands and smiled bitterly: "I didn't say that this time!"
"Then what did they say?"
"Haha." Yao Ruyi sighed and shook his head.
"No, there's not even an explanation?" Lao Lin somehow connected this scene with what he had experienced in the gymnasium run by Dai Sha before.
"No, nothing. And because many people were arrested in the last incident, the survivors avoided talking about the disappearance. They were afraid of getting angry."
"Okay, there's no explanation, so the troops have to take some precautionary measures, right?" Lao Lin continued to ask unwillingly.
"Well, we have adopted it and stepped up patrols at night, but..."
"It doesn't work?"
"Get worse!" Yao Ruyi's four simple words shocked the three people present.
"Isn't this very strange? But it didn't fall on me after all, so I was just a little scared and didn't take it to heart.
Until one night, I was going to go out to relieve myself. But I found two brothers in the same tent slumped on the ground unconscious. It was only after they tremblingly told me what they had seen and heard half an hour ago that I realized the seriousness of the situation. "
"What happened? Did your two brothers see something?" Tang Xiaoquan asked nervously, feeling that the fog was about to clear. The truth of the matter is about to be revealed.
"They originally got up at night to go to the toilet, but halfway through, they found several figures in military uniforms dragging a white sack in the dark and walking quickly towards the players' lounge. The important thing is that they Seeing something struggling violently in the big sack, they suspected it might be a person. Then the black shadow seemed to notice their movement. He shouted "Who!" "After seeing no response, he hurried on his way."
As soon as Yao Ruyi's words ended, Tang Xiaoquan sensitively connected the matter with the previous missing persons, but he did not dare to draw this conclusion anyway, because once this inference became true, it would mean that he parents may be in great danger.
However, although the hope was good, the reality was cruel. Yao Ruyi continued without pausing: "After listening to the words of the two brothers, I realized that the trouble caused by the missing people was the fault of the army itself. Then I thought about their previous response to this matter. The perfunctory attitude made me more and more convinced of this. But I know that even if we want to leave this place of right and wrong now, it is absolutely impossible, not to mention that the towering walls around us cannot pass through. Just the layers of guards that were strengthened after the incident made us helpless. Escape was obviously impossible, but fortunately, a few of us knew the truth of the matter, so the seven brothers in the tent together, this matter Don't make any noise for the time being, just go back to normal and pretend nothing happened."
"But our idea was obviously too naive. Just one day later, my two brothers were summoned by the army and never came back. From then on, the rest of the people in our tent were The few brothers below were in a state of panic all day long, and they didn’t even dare to leave the tent because they were worried that they would disappear inexplicably one day.”
"These days of fear and worry lasted for about a week. Maybe the troops didn't say anything out of the mouths of my two brothers, and they didn't send anyone to the tent to arrest anyone after that. But the mental state of a few of us was really about to collapse. At that time, our only thought was to leave this damn gymnasium." Yao Ruyi's slack shoulders drooped downward. Although it has been so long, he can still learn from it. His demeanor showed the great impact this incident had on him. (To be continued.)
