Chapter 87: You were all I had

The horizontal line is going up and up.

Although the room is very spacious, there is still a period of time to break the trap. But the door lock is broken, the signal is blocked, either open the door or call for help, they can not do.

After Yu He and Qingcheng Xie tried everything, and found that there was really no way for them to save themselves, the atmosphere in the shooting cabin became very serious.

The water is already up to the neck of the feet, the winter water is cold, the coldness of death is like a slippery snake with a letter, along the neck of the feet up the ghostly, cold and bone chilling.

Yu He suddenly took a shovel from the corner and pushed it against the alloy door.

Qingcheng Xie : "...... don't bother, this door can't be opened by hard prying."

Yu He did not say anything, he pestled a few very obvious scratches on the door, then threw the shovel, took out the phone to the stopwatch interface, and began to time.

The floating light of the phone reflected his face as he said softly, "I wasn't trying to pry the door open, I was counting how much time we probably had left to get oxygen."

"......"

"Two hours." Yu He finally put down his stopwatch, looked back at Qingcheng Xie, "We have two hours."

This is the answer to this death math problem. If there is no accident, two hours later, the whole closed chamber will be filled with water.

Qingcheng Xie did not say anything, subconsciously fumbling for a cigarette from his pocket.

The cigarette case is empty.

He remembered that just now outside, the last cigarette had been taken by Yu He.

"...... fuck you, why are you smoking my cigarettes." Qingcheng Xie annoyed cigarette case pinched, thrown to the side.

"What time is it, you're still talking about cigarettes."

Qingcheng Xie looked up at Yu He, still annoyed: "Then why the fuck are you following me all the time?"

"......"

The more I say, the more annoyed I get: "...... I'm telling you Yu He, if you hadn't come along, this wouldn't be happening now. You really asked for it."

Yu He : "If I hadn't come along, you would probably be dead by now."

"......" Qingcheng Xie said coldly and stiffly, "clean. That way the only one who dies will be me."

Yu He's heart inexplicably tightened: " Qingcheng Xie , you ...... are feeling unworthy for me?"

Qingcheng Xie sullenly and dryly replied, "I think that is clear, no one owes anyone. And no one will take my last cigarette."

"......" Yu He blushed wonderfully and tripped over the water to approach him, "Do you know what it means to be dead."

"I'm a doctor. You think I don't know what it means to die?"

Yu He said, "Really? But I think you're a crazy person."

The sound of water in the cabin was constant.

Qingcheng Xie took his eyes off of Yu He.

Instead of arguing with Yu He again, he took out his phone and scratched the screen - but no miracle happened, the signal source was still zero, and the alarm call dialed out did not penetrate the barrier.

What Yu He didn't expect was that Qingcheng Xie, after an unsuccessful call, actually found a jellyfish video from his photo album and clicked on it to start watching.

"......" He didn't know for a moment whether to think Qingcheng Xie's dark sense of humor was too heavy, or whether the man was too calm and scary.

He stared at Qingcheng Xie's drooping eyelashes: "You still have this mood ...... two hours we can't get out, you don't have to look at jellyfish, we can turn into jellyfish ourselves."

Qingcheng Xie said, "So what can we do now."

Yu He choked.

There really isn't anything they can do about it.

Except for waiting to be found.

Yu He leaned against the iron gate next to Qingcheng Xie, standing side by side with him, watching the floating jellyfish.

"Do you think this is a follow-up to that Broadcasting Tower thing?"

"Not necessarily, odds are it's not."

The water sprite was swaying gently, and with the ethereal sound of the octave box in the phone, there was some ability to comfort the heart.

"If it's them, then you and I don't have to wait until now, we're mostly dead."

After the Broadcasting Tower incident, Yu He and Qingcheng Xie were exposed to the mysterious organization. But for so long, the other side did not strike again. This shows that the price to pay for killing them both is greater than the benefits, the crime syndicate is not a single psychopathic murderer, they generally have their own purpose behind doing things, rather than killing for fun, especially by the high social concern, the syndicate is well aware of the hands of such people will be splattered with blood, the loss is not worth it.

Besides, this time Qingcheng Xie and Yu He were trapped because of a coincidence - the studio is Qingcheng Xie's own to come, Yu He is also his own to follow Qingcheng Xie, they just outside can also leave.

The murderer is going to kill them, most likely just because they saw the scene of Mr. Hu's murder, just like the deputy editor and executive who are currently missing, had to do it.

After one video of the water sprite was finished, Qingcheng Xie switched to another one.

Yu He suddenly said at this time: " Qingcheng Xie , I have been following you, in fact, because I still want to know the answers to those things."

"The answer to which things."

"You know."

Qingcheng Xie was quiet for a while, then suddenly asked, "Can you give me a cigarette?"

"...... You know full well that I didn't-"

Qingcheng Xie's peach blossom eyes were quiet: "You know I won't."

Both men then stopped talking again, and the cabin fell silent once again.

In this silence, they do not talk about Yi Hu, the deputy editor or the executive. Yu He and Qingcheng Xie are united in this respect, they do not stand by indifferently to human dangers, but both do not waste time on fear and meaningless speculation.

Reasoning only makes sense if there is a life out.

If there is no life out ......

Qingcheng Xie's choice was to watch the jellyfish video and wait calmly.

Yu He thought, "What about yourself?

Even at this point in time, Yu He still feels that his life is not worth living and that the feeling of being at the end of his rope is still far away.

But he still couldn't help but think-

What if this is the last two hours?

What he wants to do.

What is he going to do?

Yu He thought about it, those broken flashing images but he felt ridiculous and a little pathetic, so he shook those thoughts away.

The time passed by minute by minute.

The horizontal line has reached the chest.

The water pressure suffocates the heart chambers a bit, and the waterline is no longer at the right height for looking at your phone.

Yu He found two plastic boxes and gave one to Qingcheng Xie to put his phone inside.

"Although it says waterproof, it is better not to believe the words of these businessmen."

Qingcheng Xie did not say much, the brimming water color, his face is too pale, the color of his lips is also much lighter than usual.

He is afraid of the cold.

Not only was he afraid of the cold, but such a claustrophobic space, with rising water levels, was also stimulating his brain.

He closes his eyes, his dark lashes like drooping curtains.

The water level is a little higher again.

Now Yu He and Qingcheng Xie must float on the surface because the water level has exceeded two meters.

Qingcheng Xie raised his eyes and looked at the ceiling, which was closer.

He kept his hope alive just because he thought there might be a breakthrough at the zenith.

Here four walls are smooth, there is no borrowing point, can only wait for the water level to rise to a sufficient height, in order to hold the buoyancy to see the ceiling structure. Most of the ceilings of such studios have sandwich panels, not completely brick and tile roof, as long as they find that hollow position, they may be able to get out.

Before that, Qingcheng Xie didn't want to exert too much energy, and he didn't want to lose his composure.

Time passed little by little, the water line was still moving up, higher and higher, and they were getting closer and closer to the ceiling ......

Yu He lying on his back on the water, I have to say, he is the best companion in this situation, normal people encounter such things, not frightened crazy should also be crying, but Yu He is different.

He sees death as a stream of cars on the street and will try to avoid colliding with them, but will not be afraid of the vehicles themselves.

" Qingcheng Xie , I know what you're thinking, you think we can get out through the zenith."

"......"

Because the amount of water stored is so large that it has flooded over the break in the water main, the water is gushing directly into the pool, so it is not so noisy clattering sound.

The surroundings seemed quieter, as if they were in a space not of the earthly world, in the depths of the sea.

"But what if we can't find that sandwich panel?"

"......"

"What if the last road is also a dead end."

"......"

Yu He picks up his phone from the plastic box floating next to him, which shows the countdown he has set.

"That leaves us with less than an hour to go."

"Then it's time to die."

"Did you ever think we'd die together like this by accident. To die here."

"I know you're not afraid, but do you have any regrets at all?"

Qingcheng Xie closed his eyes and whispered, "Don't talk so much."

"In case I die, I won't be able to talk afterwards."

"...... Don't think so much about it."

But Yu He suddenly said, " Qingcheng Xie , are you very cold now."

"......"

"I can hear the trembling in your voice. Actually, I'm quite cold too. Fortunately, it was two hours, if it was four hours, by the current weather, we wouldn't even have to drown, we'd just freeze to death. Hypothermia."

Young men and mature men are different after all, in front of the threat of death, young men words in the end to more than mature men.

Qingcheng Xie thought, "Yu He is still too young to see the train of death, it is already very good to maintain such a state. But then he thought, "Yu He is really unlucky, asking for trouble, having to pester himself to come to this kind of ghost place.

As a result, one off the two.

"It's getting out." Qingcheng Xie said, "There are pipe openings at the edge of the shed roof, and now you can see the break in the ceiling, which is very thin. ...... You don't have to be too nervous."

Yu He laughed: "I'm not nervous."

"......"

"I just feel sorry. Qingcheng Xie, it's really quite regrettable. I want to talk to people about a lot of things, and I want to know a lot of things. If it's true that you can't get out-"

"It must get out."

"...... Why are you so sure about it?"

"Because it's not time to give up yet. If one is not going to give up, then there is no point in hesitating."

Yu He heard him say so, and after a long time, he sighed softly.

"You know what? I'm not hesitating, I'm just trying to do away with the worst of it - if I'm really going to drown here, I at least want to live with a little more understanding before I die."

"What about you?"

"Would you refuse to tell me a little truth even if you were dead?"

"If people are cold, what does the truth matter."

Yu He quietly looked at the ceiling reflecting the shimmering water, so menacing scene, these lights are beautiful: "But someone once said that the truth is never meaningless."

"The truth can determine whether regret or relief is buried in the tomb."

"......"

"If you don't want to talk, I have a lot to say."

Qingcheng Xie : "You have plenty of energy."

Yu He smiled: "Ah, you know best whether I have enough energy or not."

"......"

It is also really convinced him, to this point, but also can open two out of tune yellow accent.

After Yu He laughed, he leaned back on the sparkling water, his eyes hazy, and he said, " Qingcheng Xie , I've never had a good conversation with you before."

"Do you know why I hate you so much? I've never hated someone to this extent before."

"I know, because you think I lied to you."

"It's not."

The surrounding area is too quiet and cold, the breath exhaled between the two speaking, in the air have become a dense fog.

"No." Yu He murmured, saying it again, then said, "...... because I've never trusted a person as much as I trusted you."

He didn't used to say such blunt things.

But now he says it.

"You don't know how much the truths you used to tell me gave me the courage to live."

"......"

"But you've taken that courage out of me again."

"......"

"I'm cold, Qingcheng Xie."

"......"

"I don't know why you're lying to me like this and why you can act like it's all the same thing."

The water was too cold, to the marrow of the bones.

Yu He was quiet for a while and then said, "In fact, that day in the empty night club, the first glass of wine, I accidentally poured."

"I didn't mean to do this to you in the first place. But--" He clattered and flipped in the water, going from floating on his back, to treading water, showing only one head.

Qingcheng Xie was still on his back on the water, Yu He swam forward a little and his chest touched the top of Qingcheng Xie's head.

Yu He lowered his eyes, his face was still dripping water, crystal water beads followed the contours of his cheeks and fell on Qingcheng Xie's forehead. He just looked down at Qingcheng Xie's closed-eyed face.

He was resentful that Qingcheng Xie could be so cold at this point, and wouldn't even open his eyes to look at him.

Yu He therefore got up to tease him and suddenly lowered his head and kissed Qingcheng Xie's cold lips.

One of them was lying on the surface of the water and the other was standing in the water, and as he hung his head and kissed him, Qingcheng Xie opened his eyes suddenly.

"You--"

"I have nothing to regret, I don't like men, never have, but you make me content." Yu He looked at him, his warm breath just brushing against Qingcheng Xie's cold skin, "Though I don't know why that is."

"......"

"If we get out this time, I'm going to get a room with you and spend the whole day doing nothing but sleeping with you. I'm kind of desperate to pry the truth out of you, but I'm still hopeful to pry other sounds out of you that I like to hear. I'm going to have sex with you all day and all night, and when I get back to Huzhou after New Year's break, I'm going to come to your house every day and have sex with you all holiday. Every day I want to. Unless you don't go out with your phone, I'll always have a way to find you."

Qingcheng Xie how did not expect him to be so unreliable, wow also straightened up from the water, from lying on his back to treading water and standing, and Yu He face to face.

"Is there something wrong with you."

"Probably, a new disease, I don't know what it is." Yu He approached him in the water, the dim light perched on his eyelashes falling, the water light gathering and scattering around them, "Go out and you give me a good cure. Lie under me and give me a cure ......"

Qingcheng Xie could not listen to it anymore and simply pressed his head into the water.

"You're going to die in this."

Yu He was pressed for a while, re-floating with water droplets - Qingcheng Xie just scolded him, but after all, there is a measure, with little force.

Yu He came on like a mermaid out of the water, stained with crystal droplets, he held Qingcheng Xie in his arms, and once again put his wet lips on it, changing the angle and sucking the slightly cold, shivering lips. This kiss is not quite the same as the previous one, which suppressed some kind of emotion that the two parties did not quite understand, the kiss was passionate and lingering, as if to dispel the bone-chilling coldness around, to take hope.

"Brother ......"

Amidst the uncertainty of whether death would come, Yu He finally whispered a few words to Qingcheng Xie--

With resentment, resignation, loss and bewilderment.

But more than that, it is an emotion that has not been seen for a long time, similar to aggravation.

"Do you know that those words are just a few glib lies to you?"

"But for me, that's all that's held me together for the last 10 years."
