MTL - Survivor 01 [Unlimited]-Chapter 136 07 diary - [03]
07 brought back a table knife from the restaurant. The knife was not sharpened. It would take a long time for it to become a weapon, but 07 had patience.
They don't have many classes every day, and they have plenty of rest time. After 08 made new friends, he basically spent non-sleep time wandering in other people's dormitories.
This is just right, 07 likes to be alone, he can just do his own things, for example, when 08 is not around, he takes out the knife from under the pillow and sharpens its blade bit by bit.
It was a long process, and one day, when he lightly touched the blade and his finger would be cut by it, 07 knew that the knife had been sharpened. He removed a small part of the quilt, made a simple scabbard with tape, and carried the knife with him every day, and put it under his pillow when he slept.
He didn't know what Fang Yuan and the people in this base were trying to do to trap them here, but on the first day 07 came in, he heard Fang Yuan mention "screening". Through this word, 07 could only think of the worst situation. That is murder.
Screening is not the survival of the fittest, the strong can survive to the end.
Of course, it is also possible that 07 is thinking too much. After all, there are many screening methods, such as tests, or other things.
But he will not gamble on the illusory possibility, he wants to leave a way out for himself.
He stayed at this place with the group of kids for two years.
During the past two years, teachers taught them theoretical knowledge and life skills, nutritionists helped them regulate their bodies, and coaches took them to exercise their physical fitness. Although 07 is blind, it didn't affect his life. He didn't miss any of the things those able-bodied children did, except of course making friends.
In addition, he often reads books.
There is a library in this place, which has all kinds of books. The other children are playing around, and they usually spend their free time in the indoor playground and game room. 07 is the only child who is willing to patronize the library.
It was not difficult for him to read the book, because later Fang Yuan equipped him with a text reader, which would help 07 read the text in the book, and even search for relevant annotations in real time for things he didn't understand, which was also convenient.
He reads a wide range of books, including psychology, criminal investigation, academics... He will read through what he can understand and what he can't understand. During those two years, he could only hear the electronic human voice simulated by the text reader, and the voices of those teachers and children. Apart from the aroma of food, he could only hear the uniform smell of laundry detergent on their clothes, and The scent of the ink on the book, and the faint scent of the thermostat.
As for his little friends, they still study and play every day, doing what children should do. Of course, they often bully 07, which is specifically manifested as isolation and mischief. 07 will always be pushed by someone when he walks on the road. He falls to the ground, and the children next to him will laugh at him wantonly, and 07 will stand up from the laughter , go away by yourself.
These tricks were very clumsy, 07 heard their footsteps when they approached, but he didn't deliberately avoid them, after all, it was a good thing for him to pretend to be a weak person.
These days are very peaceful, but 07 knows that this is just the calm before the storm.
Two years passed in the blink of an eye, and 07's knife was also hidden in his arms and under his pillow for two full years.
The storm came one evening two years later.
It was an ordinary weekend, 08 was watching cartoons in another dormitory, 07 was listening to books in the library, they were called back to the dormitory by the overhead radio.
07 went back first. Not long after he came back, the door of the dormitory was pushed open. 08 walked in. He slammed the door, still muttering:
"I was seeing a wonderful place, why did I suddenly let me go back to the dormitory?"
He glanced at 07 who was sitting on the bed, and he could only vent the little dissatisfaction in his heart on him.
He deliberately asked:
"Hey, have you watched Superman Wars? Ah, yes, you must not have read it, after all, you are blind."
07 didn't care about his malicious jokes.
08 was talking by himself, but 07 ignored him, and he himself felt bored, so he fell silent. 07 only heard the sound of the bed being sunken, probably because he was lying on the bed.
Not long after, he heard a crisp click from the direction of the door, as if the door had been locked.
08 also heard this voice, he was a little surprised:
"Ah, what's the situation?"
As if in response to 08's words, the next second, another voice came from the room:
"Hello kids, before you know it, we've been living together for two years, are you happy here during this time?"
07 heard a sound of electric current coming from the front of the room, that place should be the video light screen, at this time Fang Yuan's voice came from there, slightly distorted by the sound of electric current.
"I told you on the first day you came in, we live here, enjoy the resources provided by Mr., and also abide by the rules set by him. Names, it seems that everyone is doing well. Now, I want to explain to you our second rule."
"Mr. gave everyone two years to enrich themselves. Now, he doesn't want to continue raising children with no future. We have a total of 20 boys here. After today, Mr. hopes that there will be only less than ten children left here."
"…What's the meaning?"
What he said was a bit weird. After listening, 19, who was the most active, turned on the microphone and asked Fang Yuan:
"Are we leaving here?"
"Yes and no."
Fang Yuan laughed twice:
"Everyone's dormitory door is locked now. Before tonight, when the door is opened, only one child can come out. If you open the door, the uncle outside finds two children alive in the room, then I'm sorry. They will make the two of you disappear together. Of course, don’t even think about hiding in it forever, when the specified time passes, the uncles will forcibly open the disobedient dormitory, and also make the children inside disappear.”
After saying this, there was a long silence in the light screen.
Finally, the boy who asked the question spoke again, this time, his voice was lower:
"Is Uncle Fang joking with us?"
Fang Yuan's voice was as smiling as before, but in the current situation, it sounded a bit inexplicably cold:
"No, or, if you think I'm joking, brave children can also open the door and try to see what happens."
After saying this, there was another silence.
For the current situation, 07 is not surprising.
For two years, let them make friends and cultivate relationships, and when the time is right, let them play a game of choosing one or killing each other. It seems that the gentleman behind is really a cruel guy.
07 slightly bent his lips.
"What do you mean? Is what Uncle Fang said true?"
"I don't know, why don't we open the door and have a look?"
"But I dare not..."
"What dare not?"
The sound of children writing together came from the light screen, 07 frowned, and asked 08:
"What's on the light screen now?"
08 also couldn't care less about being angry with 07, so he answered obediently:
"Surveillance video."
"En." 07 nodded, listening carefully to the voice.
He heard two children actually open the door of the room after a brief discussion. Because he heard a guy say triumphantly:
"Look, I just said it's going to be fine, we..."
"boom-"
The next second, a gunshot rang out.
The gunshot came from the corridor behind the door, and then passed into the light screen, and the two sounds overlapped.
Afterwards, there were the terrified screams of the children in the light screen.
A few seconds later, there was another gunshot.
"It seems that two children, 1516, violated the rules. I'm really sorry."
Fang Yuan said with a smile:
"Are you aware of the seriousness of the matter now? Let me see, it's three o'clock in the afternoon. Let's finish at nine o'clock. There are still six hours left for you. I wish you a happy game."
After saying this, Fang Yuan's voice disappeared, only the whispers of the children came from the monitor inside the light screen.
Most of them were frightened by the picture on the light screen. Up to now, 15's body is still lying on the bed, and his blood stained the white sheet red, and the area is getting bigger and bigger.
"15, 15 are you there? Are you still alive? 16? What about you?"
A bold child asked with a trembling voice, but obviously, he couldn't get an answer.
A child cried out:
"Woooo, I don't want to die, I don't want to, it's so scary, can I get out of here..."
Even 08 beside 07 secretly cried.
07 sighed.
After a while, 08 sobbed and asked:
"Hey, people are dead outside, aren't you afraid?"
07 raised eyebrows:
"Why should I be afraid?"
"We're going to die."
07 light tone:
"It won't be me who dies."
For other children, the day before, there were friends who played together and lived a carefree life, but in just one night, the friends who were watching cartoons together just now died in front of their eyes, and they have been taking care of them all the time. His kind uncle turned into a murderer and asked them to kill each other.
This was too difficult for them to accept. They needed time to digest the information, but Fang Yuan only gave them six hours.
07 has been paying attention to the movement inside the light screen, but he can't hear anything except crying.
It seems that no one has done anything.
07 was a little impatient.
If no one does the first one, no one will do it, which means they will continue to consume like this. 07 hasn't finished reading the book yet, he doesn't want to waste time by such things.
But he can't do the one at the beginning, he is blind, and he is very passive in the first place. Only when others do it first, will his chances of victory become greater.
Time passed by, 07 was not in a hurry, and he didn't know how long it had passed, but he knew that at the end of the six hours, Fang Yuan would definitely come out and say something, and give these children a final push.
Sure enough, when the specified time was about to end, Fang Yuan's voice sounded again:
"You guys disappointed me a bit, it seems like you guys don't want to make a choice."
Fang Yuan sighed:
"I'm sorry, then."
After this sentence was over, 07 heard a flurry of footsteps in the corridor, as if someone was running over, and then there was a heavy knock on the door.
Bang, boom, boom.
The children in the light screen were screaming and begging for mercy, but the person who smashed the door had no intention of letting them go.
In the chaos, someone seemed to have made a move, because 07 heard the sound of tables and chairs overturning and fighting.
"Don't come in, don't come in! Give me a little more time! Right now!..."
"Let me go! Are you crazy!"
In desperation, humans can do anything.
In the purgatory-like howling of the world, 08 beside him seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, because 07 heard the sound of him getting up.
08 seemed to be very careful, he tried his best to keep his movements as light as possible, but he saw that 07 didn't react extraneously, thinking that he didn't realize that he was approaching at all.
In fact, 08 is quite fortunate.
Before, he always felt that he was very unlucky to be assigned such an indifferent blind roommate, but now he realized how lucky he was, after all, it was much easier to kill a blind man than a healthy man.
Look, this guy 07 hasn't noticed him approaching until now.
08 was both excited and apprehensive.
His heart was pounding in his chest, overlapping with the constant knocking on the door. For a moment, the desire to survive completely dominated 08, and he rushed towards 07.
07 is like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
08 strangled him tightly by the neck and pressed him on the bed. At that moment, whether it was because of excitement or fear, 08 had big tears streaming down his eyes.
He muttered:
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I just want to live..."
08 explained indiscriminately, his voice trembling, but the strength in his hand did not loosen at all.
He looked at 07's beautiful face, his mind went blank for a moment, he could only mumble indiscriminately:
"I'm sorry, go to hell, right..."
08's full attention was on 07's face, he didn't notice 07's hand under the pillow.
Later, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of something shaking, and at the same time, he felt a sharp pain in his side abdomen.
08's face turned pale instantly. He wanted to shout, but he opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.
The severe pain took away his strength, 08's hand loosened, his arm was slapped away by 07, and in the next second, a hand grabbed his neck.
07 pulled out the knife, and he sighed slightly.
From the moment 08 got up, he knew he was going to make a move.
He waited for this moment for too long.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I just want to live."
07's immature voice was slightly cold, he repeated what 08 had said, and then stabbed him in the side of the neck.
Warm liquid splashed all over his face.
The book says it's a one-hit kill.
"I'm sorry, go to hell."
In front of him were 08's eyes widened in terror.
He pushed 08 away.
The author has something to say:
