Nomenclature of Night

Chapter 39: Of all the shortcuts, the farthest way (sixth)

Lin Xiaoxiao is a smart person, but he doesn't have a deep city.

When the other party returned to the restaurant but kept silent about the result of the interrogation, Qing Chen already had an answer in his heart.

Because there is nothing to say about the information, the inner world will know everything about the traverser sooner or later.

Unless...in the interrogation result, there is a secret involving someone present.

Qing Chen wondered, how would the people in the inner world view the surface world?

Not to mention others, Li Shutong is a superior person with very strong control. How can such a person drive things in a direction out of control?

Regardless of the amount of goodwill accumulated before, it is not worth mentioning in front of the superiors.

Qing Chen wasn't sure that Li Shutong would kill him, but planned for the worst.

However, Li Shutong was also a very smart person, Lin Xiaoxiao didn't need to say anything, he understood.

"Smile, take our friend of spades to other places," Li Shutong ordered.

"I'm not going anywhere," Guo Huchan suddenly realized that there might be a big secret here.

However, Ye Wan suddenly opened up a transparent force field and enveloped Li Shutong and Qing Chen.

Guo Huchan, who wanted to eavesdrop on the side, was caught off guard, but was staggered out by the force field.

When the bald head wanted to rush back, he found that Ye Wan and Lin Xiaoxiao had been in front of him.

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "If you want to stay here and look for the taboo ACE-005, don't go forward."

"If you don't listen, you won't listen!" Guo Huchan said angrily.

At this time, Li Shutong calmly looked at Qing Chen and asked: "So, you let Lu Guangyi interrogate the new prisoners these days, are you looking for them?"

Qing Chen thought for a while and said, "That's right."

"It's calmer than I thought," Li Shutong said with emotion, "I was not as good as you when you were your age."

"It's not calm, but panic and useless," Qing Chen said.

"Although Xiaoxiao hasn't told me the result of the interrogation, I know it must be a big secret," Li Shutong said: "I have always been merciless when facing uncontrollable things. Have you ever thought that you might not survive tomorrow? "

"Think about it," Qing Chen looked up at everything around him.

The curious steel dome reflected the shiny black metal storm, and the mechanical guards scattered around the prison stood blankly with guns.

There are also prisoners with hippie smiles and newcomers who are limping and grinning.

Qing Chen wasn't sure if he could still see all this, so he wanted to take a few more glances.

He suddenly bowed his head and smiled at Li Shutong and said, "It's actually quite pleasant to get along these days. If possible, I hope I can meet again."

"You won me when you played chess on the first day, so in fact I still owe you a request. You can ask what you want now," Li Shutong said.

Qing Chen thought for a while: "Can you say goodbye again?"

"Don't you change your life?" Li Shutong smiled.

"My life doesn't need to be changed, nor can it be changed," Qing Chen said.

"Okay, I have always liked your courage, this song is my gift to you, and you can mention it anytime you require it," Li Shutong asked Ye Wan to fetch the harmonica.

The farewell tune seemed to be given to him by Qing Chen, and the melodious tune made the atmosphere of the prison a little quieter.

"Thank you," Qing Chen said.

After speaking, he went back to the cell alone, lying on the cold bed and waiting quietly.

Time passed bit by bit.

From day to night.

Qingchen heard the announcement from the prison to remind all the prisoners to line up to return to the cell, and then the alloy gates were closed, and the sound of hydraulic transmission ended the hustle and bustle of the 18th prison.

Cut everything off.

The next moment, the entire prison suddenly plunged into complete darkness.

Then, the alloy gate of Qingchen's cell opened again.

In the darkness, someone put on a black headgear on him and carried him to an unknown place.

A few minutes later, the two people holding him put him somewhere, and then left one after another.

The sound of hydraulic pressure sounded again, as if something was shut down, and something was isolated.

Qing Chen lay silently in the darkness, he didn't even get up to see where he was.

There was only his breathing, and only the countdown that he could see was lit, and it couldn't illuminate any place.

Time is slow and heavy.

Qing Chen knew how a person would react when he was in a confined and dark environment.

You don't know where you are, and you can't talk to anyone. At this time, loneliness and fear will completely engulf a person.

And lose the concept of time.

No time is the most terrifying.

Many people can't even resist for 24 hours. There was an experiment that offered a reward of 1 million people to stay in it for five days, but no one could get that one million.

Money is indeed tempting, but 99% of people fall before 72 hours.

However.

I'm afraid Li Shu and his peers would not have thought that Qing Chen has never been afraid of being alone.

Since his parents divorced, he has been with loneliness.

Qing Chen clearly realized that lack of water would be his biggest enemy.

Countdown to return 146:09:02.

The countdown on this arm can help him count the time.

first day.

Qing Chen slowed down his breathing rate, and he began to recall the movie in his mind. He first watched "The Shawshank's Redemption" and then "Papillon", all about prison escape and belief.

Those are all the movies he had in his head, but they don't need equipment to replay them.

Because there is no water to drink, the neurons confuse the needs of food and water, and he starts to feel tired.

Countdown to return 122:09:02.

the next day.

Qing Chen slept and watched eight movies again in his mind.

He lay silently on the floor with his eyes closed, enjoying the darkness.

Hunger and thirst began to invade, but he seemed to abandon his external senses, unmoved.

Countdown to return 98:09:02.

The third day

The hunger began to burn his will and erode his spirit.

Qing Chen watched 12 movies this time and didn't sleep for a minute.

The loss of water in his body caused him to suffer. Because of the loss of water, his body began to become hot and cold, and his skin began to dry up.

His memory began to decline, and the movies in his mind turned into intermittent slides.

The memories of the old time began to reflect each other.

Qing Chen couldn't sleep anymore.

Countdown to return: 74:09:02.

The fourth day.

Qing Chen's hunger began to fade, he opened his eyes and looked at the endless nothingness and darkness, not knowing what he was thinking.

He hasn't looked at the time for a long time, and it seems that looking at the time has become meaningless.

However, Qingchen never said a word from the beginning to the end, and did not utter a shout.

In the darkness, the world is always silent.

He hasn't calculated how long he hasn't slept, but it doesn't seem to matter.

Qing Chen used his silence to fight against the silence and darkness of the world.

It was already dim and dark in prison 18, and the lights inside the fortress changed to dim gleams.

Even the drone on the hive seemed to fall asleep.

Li Shutong sat at the end of the dim reading area chief's desk and closed his eyes to rest. Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at the time: "Boss, it's been four days."

"Well," Li Shutong nodded.

At this time, there was a weak slap on the door in the distance, and Lu Guangyi cursed and said intermittently in a certain door: "Li Shutong, where did you shut my boss, I, Lu Guangyi will not let you go, Qing I will never let you go."

On the first day after Qing Chen disappeared, Lu Guangyi discovered something was wrong, and there was a big disturbance in the No. 18 prison, which almost caused a second metal storm.

As a result, Qing Chen disappeared for four days, and Lu Guangyi was also detained in the cell for four days.

It was not until the fourth day that Lu Guangyi finally stopped a bit.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't curse the street in a broad sense, but continued: "Boss, Qing Chen has been there for four days. He hasn't said a word, and there is no sign of collapse."

"He is an extremely smart person. He slowed down his breathing rate from the first day to avoid rapid loss of water. It is not unusual to survive the fourth day," Li Shutong said.

"Even so, it is rare for him to survive four days in silence. He doesn't seem to be tortured, but rather like waiting. But he hasn't drunk water for four days. If he doesn't drink water, he will die. ," Lin Xiaoxiao said anxiously: "Boss, you cherish your talents, let him go."

Lin Xiaoxiao, who could not understand Qing Chen's arrogant body, turned to the boy to beg for mercy.

Because he also knew what Qing Chen was going through.

Ye Wan said suddenly, "Boss, the dark room may have nothing to do with him, let him out."

However, Li Shutong thought about it for a while and even said, "The water penalty is changed."

"Boss, he is extremely short of water now, he will drink it subconsciously when he sees water, so he will die," Lin Xiao smiled anxiously.

Water torture is to put a towel on the face of the victim, and then pour water on the towel.

Waterboarding is like a one-way valve. The water keeps pouring in, and the towel prevents you from spitting it out, so you can only exhale once. Even if I hold my breath, I still feel the air being sucked away, like a vacuum cleaner.

Lin Xiaoxiao knew very well that normal people couldn't hold waterboarding, let alone someone like Qing Chen who had been thirsty for four days?

When the waterboarding starts, a person who is extremely short of water will drink water hungry.

However, the water that passed through the towel will not only flow into Qing Chen's stomach to quench his thirst, but also into the lungs, destroying the opponent's last vitality.

However, Li Shutong seemed to be cruel.

"Life and death depend on his own choice. I have never seen real death, how to take my way," Li Shutong asked calmly.

Countdown 50:09:02.

The fifth day.

The black room was opened, and Qing Chen was framed out without any fluctuations.

Someone put him on a chair and then covered his face with a thick towel.

The cold water poured on the towel blocked all oxygen and vitality.

Qing Chen sat quietly in the chair motionless, pursing his mouth.

He tried hard to resist his urge to drink water, not to let himself be destroyed by the temptation before him.

Next to him, Lin Xiaoxiao and Ye Wan looked at each other. They didn't expect that at this time Qing Chen could still maintain a sober will, know what he was facing, and know how to use his last will to fight for a chance to survive.

Qing Chen felt the water flowing in from his nasal cavity, filling his body.

He felt as if he had a dream.

When he was young, he was held by the palm of his hand in his dream, which was warm and soft.

In the park.

As if there was warm sea water enveloping the body under the sun, the golden sunlight was slowly surging.

The woman holding him suddenly asked without looking back: "Xiao Chen, there are people outside your father, don't let us anymore."

"Mom, I want to eat candied haws," he whispered to the woman in front of him when he was young.

The woman looked back at him for a long time: "Okay, mom will buy you candied haws."

The woman's eyes were red, and she went to buy candied haws for him: "Xiaochen, you eat candied haws here, mom go to the toilet."

However, the woman never came back.

Qing Chen waited from noon to sunset.

He started crying, but crying was useless.

Someone helped him find the police, but Qingchen was unwilling to follow the police, he believed his mother would come back.

Until dark, the woman came back and cried bitterly while hugging him.

Young Qing Chen only thought that the other party was lost, and found him now.

During the waterboarding, Qing Chen's brain gradually became sober, it turned out that it was not the first time that he was abandoned.

It seems that his weird memory ability was also activated from that time.

However, too good memory is not a good thing, so he remembers every kind of pain.

Clearly.

Qing Chen felt the hypoxic brain and twitching limbs, and the water began to flow back into the lung lobes, but he still sat there like a sculpture.

No struggle, no begging.

Someone in the dark said: "Go with mom."

Qing Chen responded softly: "No, mom."

The voice in the darkness said again: "Let's go with Mom."

Qing Chen's voice became firm: "No, I said no, Mom."

In an instant, the wet towel on his face was removed.

The dim light also looked a little dazzling at the moment, he saw vaguely, Lin Xiaoxiao was slapping her back anxiously.

Li Shutong stood in front of him quietly and asked, "Why didn't I beg, I still owe you a request."

Facing the dazzling light, Qing Chen looked at the opponent stubbornly. He choked out the water in his trachea, and then said firmly: "Because you don't need a weak person."

At a certain moment, Li Shutong suddenly remembered the appearance of his opponent when he played chess for the first time. He was also brave and stubborn with no retreat, like a wolf walking alone in the wilderness.

He knows, this is the person he is looking for.

Li Shutong asked again: "Can you forget everything I did to you today?"

"I can't forget," Qing Chen said, "but I don't mind."

"Very frank, very good," Li Shutong turned and walked outside the interrogation room: "From tomorrow I will teach you personally. I will take you down the farthest road among all shortcuts in this world."
