You shiver, twist the doorknob, and walk out.

Passing by the opposite door, you stop and frown, as if you did forget something.

With your parents still watching behind you, you pretend to be calm and go downstairs.

The mapping test went well, the paper seemed easy, and you were the only one who got all the answers right.

After school, you walk down the road, inexplicably remembering that a letter, is open.

A line bolded in black pen stood out: "Don't go home! Go to the city gym!"

It's 7:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m., so you have time to go there.

When you look up, you see your parents' silhouettes.

They're walking out of an old-fashioned neighborhood, covered in something red, and combined with the morning's scene, you're inexplicably scared.

You were a little scared, so you hid behind the food truck before they found you.

Through a crack in the tin door, you see them walking toward the school entrance.

There are many cars on the road, almost full of passengers, and you sweep a bicycle, smoothly avoiding the crowded traffic and pulling into the West

You sweep up a bicycle, smoothly avoiding the traffic and pulling into the West Loop.

It's a suburban area, sparsely populated.

You stop in front of the gym and notice a girl in a white dress standing under a tree in the distance.

You recognize her, Xiaowen, your girlfriend.

She sees you at the same time and a happy smile spreads across her face, "Here ......"

You got out of the car and climbed the steps in three steps, "Why did you ask to meet here today?

She moved closer, chewing her gum and cackling, "Because there are fewer people here ......"

You understood the implication of her words and coughed lightly, "By the way, there's a love letter I want to read to you."

Xiaowen blushed and nodded her head.

The letter was followed by a paragraph that was written in an extremely fleshy manner.

You can't help but read it out with goosebumps, and at the end of it, there is a sentence attached: "Love, Chen He.

The words fell, and you froze.

Your name is Chen He?

Your name is Chen Jiang.

"Wrong, I'm sorry, Xiaowen, I--"

In the darkness, the woman's neck takes on a bizarre bend, and her two eyes stare at you with red light, revealing an eerie slight

smile.

The creaking teeth are not the sound of chewing gum, but rather the crunching of human flesh.

"I X..."

Almost instantly, an arm dipped in, hooked around your neck, and yanked back strongly.

Then a calm voice rang out: "Zhang Wenjie, do it."

Bang!

Something hit the woman's head, and the brilliant brain blossom burst out in the dusk in a blinding color.

Bam!

The gym door closes hard and you fall to the ground, ready to die.

"New here?"

Then, you hear the voice say, "Survivor 26 when you found it, you were confessing your love to that thing and were about to kiss it.

He was ready to kiss it."

You opened your eyes, adjusted to the darkness, and saw an equally young man holding out his hand to you: "Meet

Welcome to the Survivor League," you say.

You are wary.

Your fingers silently gripped the wooden stick beside you, the visual stimulation just now had completely aroused your blood.

If there is movement, you will give him a stick without mercy.

"At the beginning of awakening, it is normal to be unable to distinguish between illusion and reality. It's good to be alert."

You do not move to survey the surrounding environment, a total of five people.

He Lanshan, in his early twenties, has a thin, tall body, but judging from the explosive power of his kidnapping just now, he is a master.

is a master.

With the help of Zhang Wenjie's fat, waist doesn't a slingshot, naive looks very good to get along.

There are three unfamiliar faces, two girls should be twin sisters.

A fair-faced boy, wearing glasses, svelte.

They come into contact with your gaze, nod, and don't open their mouths to introduce themselves.

Half an hour passes, you carry a wooden stick leaning in the corner, heartbeat gradually regained calm.

From the beginning of contact with the environment, those things around you are fast-paced attacks and baiting. If the opposite side is a monster.

At this moment you have died 10,000 times.

You open your mouth and ask your first question: "What are they?

As night falls, the windows of the gym are sealed tightly with various fabric curtains, and you can only distinguish people by the faint glow of your cell phone lighting up

You can only tell the location of people by the faint glow of the mobile phone.

After a long time, He Lanshan's voice rang out: "Assimilated people.

At 3:00 a.m. on July 28, those who saw the moon were caught in a vision. Some lucky ones, like us, found the paradox in the early stages and broke through a

Some lucky ones, like us, discovered the paradox at the beginning, broke through one of the illusions, and survived. The rest, they become them.

"That is, if someone wakes up, our team will grow.
