This Text Adventure Game is Absolutely Toxic Chapter 374

  Chapter 374 Sleep and Dreams

   "From now on, this is your room."

   This is what the person behind the Undead Society said to Mianmian when she was brought here on the first day.

   "This guy is completely different from other children. He doesn't cry or make trouble. The gloomy look in his eyes when he sees me is really disgusting..."

   "I heard that it is a wild child picked up by the president from the garbage dump, no wonder it smells so bad..."

   "I haven't heard her speak, so she's still dumb, right?"

   "I don't care about taking care of this kind of child, whoever you like to take care of..."

   "It doesn't matter, anyone with a problematic personality like this is just cannon fodder..."

  A few administrators gathered together to mutter, and all looked at the girl with contempt and disgust.

  The girl was wearing tattered clothes with stains all over her body, and her face was also dirty. The only impressive thing was her pair of ruby-like shining eyes on her face.

  The girl was holding a tattered doll in her arms, and turned a deaf ear to the bad words of the people over there. She just looked up at the house in front of her, and firmly remembered the house number of 'No. 14'.

  She knew that this was her residence for a long time to come.

  The girl was different from the other children who were kidnapped here. She was the only child who appeared in front of these people on her own initiative. She also used the method of pretending to escape and was caught back, so that she was sent here smoothly.

Of course she knows that this is a very bad place, and the fate of entering here may not be good, but she also understands that this is the only place on the Cook Islands where she can eat well, sleep well, and don't have to suffer from hunger and cold every day. The place.

  No matter what happens in the future, at least for now, she will be more comfortable staying here than wandering outside.

   In the following days, Mianmian began her closed life in this underground factory.

There are more than one hundred children in the same batch as her. She is always the most active one when eating every day. She gradually became a 'weird' in the eyes of other children.

   "Kangdang..."

  When it was lunch time that day, the plate she had just filled with food was 'accidentally' knocked over by a boy passing by.

   "Sorry, sleepy freak, you have nothing to eat today! Hahaha!"

Facing the malicious sneers of several little boys, the girl just glanced at them indifferently, and suddenly punched the head boy in the face, then threw him to the ground, ignoring the punches and kicks of other children nearby, Keep scratching the boy's face...

Half an hour later, the girl with a bruised nose and a swollen face picked up the food that fell on the ground one by one, ignoring the little boys next to her who were caught with cat faces, all breaking down and crying, and sat back at the dining table, continuing to calmly gnaw on the food. Dusty rice balls.

When she was outside, she had to compete with wild dogs for food every day. Compared with those wild dogs, these little boys in front of her were too weak, as weak as those small domestic dogs who only know how to dominate others, and they barked louder than anyone else. Fierce, more cowardly than anyone else when fighting.

  Since then, no other child has dared to provoke her casually, and her title among her peers has also been upgraded from 'sleepy weirdo' to 'red-eyed witch'.

  Of course, not everyone hates her. For example, the newcomer No. 15 next door, a little girl named Louise, doesn't look at her with colored glasses, and Mianmian doesn't mind showing some kindness to her.

  Coldness is just her disguise, because she knows that this will allow her to survive here better.

The closed life of the underground factory is simple and boring. Apart from completing some tasks arranged by the administrator, the rest of the time is basically idle. The convenience, because she suffers from severe narcolepsy, a rare disorder where she needs to sleep more than 16 hours a day.

  So when other children are playing, she is sleeping, and when others are doing tasks, she is also dozing off while fishing. Except for eating, few people can see her awake.

  But what everyone doesn't know is that she also has an innate special ability: she can enter other people's dreams when she is asleep, and follow the dream owner from the perspective of a bystander to experience everything in the dream.

  Dreams are always much better than reality, so for her, everyday real life is just a bad nightmare, and only when she sleeps is the real beginning of her day.

   However, I don't know if it's because of the special environment, since entering here, the scope of her dream travel has been greatly limited.

  She began to frequently enter the dreams of certain people, especially the dreams of a little girl. Every ten times she fell asleep, she would enter the dream of the same girl seven or eight times.

  It was a little girl with bob hair. When I saw her for the first time, she was wearing a delicate and gorgeous kimono, and was being led by her parents to walk in the bustling night market, watching the brilliant fireworks in the sky.

   Surrounded by strange things that she had never seen before, Mianmian followed the girl curiously, following her point of view, but she didn't expect the girl in front of her to notice something, suddenly turned around and showed her a bright smile.

Mianmian was frightened. In other people's dreams, she was always a bystander. No one could see her, and no one could notice her. This is the first time that someone interacted with her in a dream. , she was frightened and fled.

  Since then, she began to repeatedly enter the girl's dream. After many observations, she was sure that the girl could indeed see her existence and even talk to her.

  After a simple exchange, they knew each other's names. The girl's name was Ye Rumeng. She lived in the Forgotten Land and was a fool.

  Similar hobbies and complementary personalities made them fast friends, and the fact that they can meet in dreams every day has also become a secret shared by the two.

  Mianmian will follow Ye Rumeng's dreams every day and experience all kinds of things she encounters during the day.

Ye Rumeng has parents who love her, a wealthy family, kind teachers, relatives and friends, so her dreams are almost the same as reality, because reality is already happy enough, and there are not many wishes that need to be filled with dreams .

All this made Mianmian envious and yearning, sometimes she would think that the two of them are so similar, if their birth environment were exchanged, maybe she would become a sunny and cheerful girl like her instead of the current one. So gloomy and sensitive, he has even lost the ability to laugh, and only calculation and survival are left in his mind.

  'Mengmeng is me in another world', whenever she thinks about this, Mianmian will instinctively get a sense of satisfaction, as if all the happy moments the other party has experienced will be conveyed to her in real time.

  In the deep and dark underground prison, the dream world is like a light of salvation, illuminating her life.

  When other children were tormented by repeated depressive life to the point of mental breakdown, her mental state was unusually stable.

   This kind of life lasted for four years.

  The children in the surrounding rooms changed batch after batch, but she was the only one who was firmly rooted in Ward 14 like a 'nail house', and began to enjoy life here instead.

  However, as time goes by, Mianmian is not satisfied with just being a spectator in the dream, she wants to stand beside Mengmeng in real life, wear beautiful clothes like her, and walk in the sunshine.

  Especially recently, Mianmian has learned some special news from the dreams of several administrators: the people here seem to have finally run out of patience with her as a "nail house", and decided to arrange a "final experiment" for her in the near future.

  As an "old bastard" who has lived here for more than four years, and can sometimes enter the administrator's dream to peep, Mianmian certainly knows what the "final experiment" refers to.

   That is the final destination of their children who are imprisoned here, which basically means 'death'.

Of course, Mianmian doesn't want to die, and after four years, she has already considered the plan of escape: her ability to enter the dream world can not only enter the spirit, but also the body can enter the real dream world, but the premise is that she needs to stay in the backpack. sleep in space.

   As for the backpack space, as far as she knows, there is only one in the entire underground factory. Just above the Gu pool, there is a storage box. Open the box, and the backpack space is connected below.

  However, above the Gu pool is the place where the people behind the scenes live, and it is also the place where the 'monster' lives, and she has no chance to get close to it at ordinary times.

  Only during the final experiment, the child conducting the experiment would be sent to that high platform, and that was also her only chance to escape!

  Mianmian secretly planned everything for her escape. It cannot be said to be seamless, but the success rate is at least 70%.

  The question is, what should she do after she really escapes?

   "Can... take me in?"

  During this day in a dream, Mianmian plucked up her courage and asked Mengmeng this question.

   "What?" The girl looked at her puzzled.

   "I mean...if I appear in Ni's world, can I... live with you?"

   "Really?" The bob girl's eyes lit up instantly.

"Um…"

"sure!"

  Ye Rumeng nodded hastily: "I will definitely explain everything to my parents and let them adopt you too! My father is a very enlightened person, he will help you with your identity and proof, don't worry."

  The girl's answer proves that she is not a whim, but has already considered similar things. She fully understands Mianmian's situation, and even secretly consulted her family members about it.

  The girl's answer made Mianmian relax, showing a long-lost smile.

  All the plans were prepared, and then Mianmian began to look forward to the day of the experiment.

   Whenever she thinks that she will be able to leave here soon and start a new life in another world, her heart beats faster, and her heart overflows with infinite expectations.

   And this day came sooner than expected.

  A few days later, Mianmian was transferred to the West District Hospital, in a certain double dormitory, where she was assigned another roommate, another subject who would conduct the final experiment with her.

  Mianmian is indifferent to this, because she is already preoccupied with running away, no matter who comes, it has nothing to do with her.

   As a result, when the door of her room was opened that day, what was thrown in was a figure she was very familiar with.

  Looking at the little girl with **** head and bruised face on the ground, after being shocked, Mianmian suddenly felt unprecedented anger.

  She walked up to the person behind the scenes at the door, clenched her fists, and stared at the figure in front of her tightly. She couldn't control her usual indifferent expression anymore, like a she-cat protecting her calf, with a ferocious expression and trembling with anger.

   "Amazing!"

The people behind the scenes also looked at Mianmian in astonishment, and his expression quickly turned into a smile of interest: "You can actually show this kind of emotion? This is really interesting... It seems that the 14 groups of experiments can look forward to more One click!"

"Snapped!"

  The door was slammed shut without mercy.

  Mianmian hurriedly ran to the girl behind her to check her injuries.

   "Mengmeng, how are you?"

  The very weak girl with a bruised nose and a swollen face in her arms showed a happy smile to her at this moment.

   "Mianmian, I finally see you..."

   "Do you know where this is?" Mianmian was angry and helpless, why could she still laugh at this time.

"I know, this is a bad place... But, my parents are dead, I have no one to depend on, and the only family I have in this world is you, and they brought me to you, it's not worth it Are you happy?" the girl smiled.

   Mianmian was silent, and she felt even more guilty. She knew that she had killed Mengmeng, a person whose soul was attuned... She should have thought of it a long time ago. Who else is more suitable to be her experimental subject than Mengmeng? If it wasn't for her, Mengmeng wouldn't be targeted, let alone ruin her family.

   "Mengmeng, run away!" Mianmian suddenly said firmly.

   "Escape?"

"Yes, we will be thrown into a place in a few days. At that time, I will let you inherit my body and abilities. I will become a shadow ghost to help you stop others. You just need to take the opportunity to get into that box , and then do everything possible to enter the dream, and then you can escape!" Mianmian instantly modified the escape method she had planned before and passed it on to Mengmeng.

"and this!"

Mianmian took out a small bag with a small mouth from the bottom of the bed, which contained a fragment of a map covered in black air: "I found this at the garbage dump, and it contains something very important to fools. Those people said that this thing cannot Stay, because it will attract fools, I picked it up from the garbage dump."

   "Take this, go to an organization called Dragon Group, let them protect you!" Mianmian whispered.

   "What is the dragon group...?" The little girl asked blankly.

   "I don't know either. I eavesdropped on their conversation in my dream and mentioned that this organization can scare people from the Undead Society. If you give them something, they should have the ability to protect you." Mianmian said.

   This was originally a back road she reserved for herself, but now it has all been transferred to the little girl, but she doesn't feel sorry for it. The moment she saw that her experimental subject was Mengmeng, she no longer cared about her own life or death, and getting her out of here alive was more important than anything else.

   "What about you?" Mengmeng did not forget about Mianmian.

   "I... don't care anymore, this world has one less me and one more, it's all the same..."

  Mianmian smiled wryly, how dare a person who has been in the dark all his life step into the light rashly? Everything that I had dreamed and waited for for so long was just a dream after all.

  In order to ensure that Mengmeng can escape, Mianmian taught her everything planned many times in the next half month.

   Half a month later, the two were finally brought to the top of the Gu pool, and in front of the person behind the scenes, they were pulled into the shadow of the ground and fell into a world full of twisted lines.

An indescribable sense of oppression came from all directions, and the two girls fell to the ground with their heads covered in an instant, but the shadows under them seemed to be attractive, gathering together, and finally connecting between the two. Together.

Both of them were trembling due to the pain that hit their faces, but Mianmian still managed to squeeze out a smile: "Don't be afraid, Mengmeng, I will let you survive. No matter what happens to me later, Don't be afraid, even if you become a monster, I will definitely protect you..."

   "This little bit of pain, to me... small meaning..."

  Mianmian smiled dryly, and began to try to absorb the pain in Mengmeng's shadow and bless her.

  However, she soon discovered that she hadn't been able to absorb the shadow, but her own shadow was shortening, and at the same time, the pain on her body was also rapidly decreasing.

  Mianmian looked at the girl opposite in surprise: "Mengmeng, what are you doing?"

   "It turns out that this is the pain you have been enduring. I was too naive..." The little girl looked at her weakly, and forced a dry smile.

"Stop it! Both of us will die if this continues, are you going to waste the opportunity I created for you?" Feeling that the pain in her body was still decreasing, Mianmian suddenly became anxious, every point she lost here Pain will be blessed on the girl opposite.

   "Nothing goes to waste..."

  The girl fell to the ground, her body huddled in pain, but she forced a smile: "I'm sure I can't do such a complicated thing... So, it's better for you to run away..."

  "...Don't be afraid, I will help you take away all the painful memories...You have to take my memory, dream, and live..."

  Accompanied by the girl's weaker and weaker voice, the shadow under Mianmian began to be quickly drawn away.

  The pain receded like a tide, and Mianmian suddenly felt unprecedentedly relaxed, and at the same time, a huge drowsiness flooded in. She tried hard to stay awake, but she still couldn't resist the strong reaction of her body, and gradually closed her eyes...

   "Surprising, isn't it?"

  On the high platform, the people behind the scenes stood above the shadows, watching the various changes in the two girls in the shadows, and spoke to the man behind him in a somewhat excited tone.

"These two children are like the same person in a parallel world. One was born to stand in the light and the other was born to stand in the shadows. It's a combination made in heaven... I have a hunch that today, the best child in our church's history will be born. work!"
