Snap, snap, snap.
This is the sound made when water keeps dripping on the forehead and between the eyebrows.
Snap, snap.
Wang Ran woke up from a coma in a daze, feeling only that her eyes were dry. The dazzling light made her eyes hurt. She subconsciously wanted to squint her eyes, but her attempt failed. She felt like something was stuck on her upper and lower eyelids. She couldn't close her eyes as she wished.
She could only focus on the direction of the water drops.
A strange device that resembled both a funnel and an intravenous drip bottle came into view. The bottle was suspended from the ceiling by a thin steel cable, and the mouth of the bottle was facing her, with water dripping out continuously.
The water drops are dripping out of that hanging bottle.
Snap.
Another drop of water fell on Wang Ran's forehead.
The delicate structure at the mouth of the bottle can adjust the water flowing out of the bottle, dripping on her forehead and between her eyebrows at a frequency of one drop per second.
Precise and mechanical.
Although she still didn't fully understand what the current situation was, the strange environment around her and the strange device above her head made Wang Ran instinctively feel panic in her heart. She wanted to raise her hand, wanted to turn her head, and thought To stand up...
But after struggling in vain, she realized that she couldn't move at all.
Her hands, feet, back, cervical vertebrae and even her head were firmly fixed. No matter how hard she struggled, her vision never wavered at all, and the water droplets dripping from above still landed on her eyebrows without any bias.
The chair beneath him was as motionless as if it were firmly welded to the ground.
Snap.
Another drop of water fell on the forehead, and more memory fragments emerged in Wang Ran's mind, and his hazy consciousness gradually regained consciousness.
Regarding the memory of the health supplement pills I bought from my senior classmate, which are said to improve concentration and learning ability.
Regarding taking truth pills for a long time, I remember that my grades are getting better.
Regarding that kind of elevated consciousness, ideas and methods for solving problems are spread out in front of your eyes, and new ideas are constantly popping up in your mind, as if it has become a memory overlooking the problem from the perspective of God.
The memory of being kidnapped by a weirdo with a terrifying sword in his hand.
But these memories only flashed before her eyes for a moment, and she returned to that nightmare hell again.
"No--!!!"
The girl's piercing and deformed scream echoed in this small room of only about ten square meters.
"No! Don't-don't come back here! Don't let me come back here again! Save me! Help me!!! Ah-!!!"
Her head and cervical vertebrae were firmly fixed and unable to move, and her eyes were also blocked by some kind of device. She couldn't even close her eyes. No matter how she screamed, she could only stare into the bottle. Drops of oozing water fell on his forehead.
Snap.
The drops of water seeping out of the bottle are endless and endless.
There was a dull pain between his eyebrows again, and Wang Ran couldn't tell whether the pain coming from his eyebrows was a phantom pain caused by fear or a real pain.
The constant dripping of water made her involuntarily focus her energy and attention on her forehead and between her eyebrows, feeling the moment when the water dropped and exploded on her skin.
Concentration will make a small touch unbearable, and the pain will be amplified. Just like a child who is too afraid of the pain of an injection and involuntarily focuses on his arm, the result will be more painful. .
Repeated mechanical boring phenomena will gradually torture her mental consciousness and cause her to have a lot of illusions.
In this concentration, transfer, and amplification, the girl's senses and spirit become distorted and deviate from normal standards.
Sometimes the dripping water was like boiling hot water, which would make her eyebrows ache, but sometimes it was as cold as ice water, almost freezing her brain.
But most of the time she felt the dripping water droplets, like sharp knives that fell in free fall and pierced her forehead, then penetrated into her brain and stirred it up...
She couldn't feel the passage of time in the pure white room. Wang Ran didn't know how long she had been in this room, nor how long she would stay. She didn't blink for so long that her eyes felt so dry that they seemed to explode. Likewise, she squeezed her facial muscles hard, hoping to lubricate and soothe her dry eyes in this way.
There was also burning pain in his throat. From the beginning, he could not suppress the screams of fear, despair and pain, but now Wang Ran can hardly make a sound.
But this room seemed to be isolated from the rest of the world. No matter how many times she called, how many times she cried, how many times she begged, or how many times she gave in, no one would pay attention to her. It was as if the person who locked her up here and tortured her didn't care what she would become in the future.
But she could still vaguely feel that someone was looking at her. This feeling was very strange. It was like noticing that someone was secretly peeking at her. Wang Ran could feel that there was a line of sight in this room, which was cold, indifferent and condescending. Looking at myself.
There is one person or several people watching her silently. Now she just hopes to get relief. As long as she can let her go, she is willing to do anything.
But no matter how much she begged, those people still ignored her.
"Let me go...please...let me go..."
His voice was hoarse to the point of losing his voice, and his spirit was on the verge of reaching its limit. Wang Ran couldn't remember how long it had been since she had rested and closed her eyes. She couldn't blink, turn her head, or look away. She could only sit quietly on the chair like a person paralyzed in bed, waiting for the next drop of water to fall on her eyebrows.
Snap.
Water drops fell on Wang Ran's forehead as always.
But something was different. This time, she felt that as the water dropped, there seemed to be a string in her brain that was quietly broken as the water exploded.
The last moment before consciousness is dissolved by madness.
She saw a figure walking towards her.
"Now you are one of us, welcome to join our great plan..."
…………
Yandu, the old city, the base where hunters rent.
Alex removed his broad palm from the sleeping girl's head and opened his eyes with a gloomy expression.
"What's wrong?" Wu Ming, who had been waiting for a long time, saw the old hunter's face turned away from the dream with an ugly expression, "Did the dream fail?"
Alex stretched out his hand and rubbed his bulging temples: "My spirit has collapsed... The deepest impression is the memory of being captured by the Society of Truth and being tortured with water drops. That scene is deeply imprinted on her consciousness and memory. Even in dreams, such nightmares are repeated, and it will take a lot of effort to wash them away..."
After dealing with the various problems caused by the shock in the Shadow Realm to Yandu, Wu Ming took Zhao Sida, Elizabeth and Alex to the hunter's stronghold in the old city, preparing to memorize the psykers captured by Zhao Sida. Search for further information about the Master and the Society of Truth.
Also returning together was Otto and the seventy-three victims that he and Zhao Sida snatched back from the Truth Society.
But the search for the memories of these psychics did not go smoothly. Their wills and spirits were in an extremely crazy and paranoid state, and at the same time, someone set restrictions on key nodes in their memories. Alex tried many times. , were unable to find any useful information from their memories.
At the same time, in the memories of the psykers of the Society of Truth, there was a memory gap of more than two weeks. That memory was completely washed away, and even dreaming could not remind them of that erased memory.
Because the search for psykers' memories was at an impasse, they had to first focus on the treatment of the seventy-three victims.
Alex's fingers were shining with light, and he gently tapped Wang Ran's forehead. However, when his fingers were about to touch the latter's eyebrows, his hand froze. After stopping in the air for half a second, he slowly moved his fingers and pointed. On the girl's temple, after doing all this, the girl's painful and distorted expression gradually relaxed, and Alex also breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Wu Ming.
"Moreover, I discovered something related to the master from her memory..."
