Honkai, they all became my stigmata

==========

"Mebius!!!"

The man's hysterical voice sounded in the house.

The neighbors have long turned a blind eye to the noise made by the intermittently manic man, and the children who are dominated by the roar may have become accustomed to it.

She is Mebius and she is nine years old.

To be more precise, today is her first day as [nine-year-old Mebius].

The one who lay paralyzed on her bed and ordered her to do things with a voice as if calling some kind of lowly slave was her father, her biological father.

She kept silent. At this time, she knew what to do, and she also knew what her father was expressing.

Mebius walked barefoot on the floor, leaving a pattering sound.

The girl found the cabinet containing the medicine box. The cabinet was a little high, and it was a bit too much for a nine-year-old girl.

She tried her best to stand on tiptoe, and stretched out her hand cautiously, trying to take down the high medicine box.

The girl's hands are slender and thin, and under the sunlight, they have a very unique whiteness. If one observes them in this dimly lit room, it will even give people an almost transparent illusion.

After all, she had repeated the behavior countless times. She successfully removed the medicine box, and took the amount that her father should take this time with ease.

The pattering sound sounded again, and the girl returned to the room where the man was, handed the medicine to her father, and to the man who was getting thinner day by day.

The man roughly took the medicine from the girl's hands, leaving a bright red mark on her white hands.

He had no qualms about hurting his daughter—something he hadn't had time to think about for a man already drugged and moody.

The girl just stood beside the man silently, watching him with pity eyes as he took the white pills necessary to sustain life one by one.

Yes, it's not hatred, fear, or fear, but [compassion], which comes from a nine-year-old daughter's compassion for her father.

Generally speaking, this kind of expression would not appear on the face of a girl of this age, let alone her father who was the object of her pity.

There was a reason for the young Mebius to show such an expression.

Her father, a hysterical, moody man, hadn't been like this.

On the contrary, for a long period of time, he was a...very gentle father, a father who, even though he was widowed, did not get depressed, but actively dealt with life, and inspired his daughter to grow up healthy and optimistic, which is enough to be called It's an excellent father.

He used to be a well-known doctor, always giving prescriptions and medical orders to patients in a gentle tone.

Until...a terrible illness found his father.

In order to maintain his life, but also to treat his illness, he had to take the medicine he had just swallowed for a long time.

There is a saying among the neighbors that the diseases suffered by human beings are the punishment of the gods and the test of civilization.

There is a price to be paid for surviving against this punishment.The side effects of the drug mercilessly hijacked his nerves, easily tampered with his cognition, and turned him into what he is today.

Snapped--

A crisp slap.

This is a signal that the man is releasing, [you can get out].

The girl didn't cry, and she didn't reach out to cover her red and swollen face. She was very calm, calmly analyzing the situation of her injury, and analyzing where the blood flowing from the corner of her mouth came from.

And, did he slap himself a little harder?

She didn't blame her father for doing this to her, because it was the drugs that got him to this point.

... This is a very sad and ridiculous thing, isn't it?

Such a small piece can easily destroy all feelings and personality of a person, and make him a completely different self from the original self.

The existence of human beings is so fragile, ugly and funny.

If it was normal, after being slapped, the girl should leave obediently, but today, she did not do so.

On this special day that was supposed to be a birth celebration, she had some extra plans.

The girl tidied her light green hair slightly, then raised her head, looked at her father with a playful expression and said:

"You look so ugly right now. I'm... definitely not going to be human like you."

Snapped--

Another crisp slap, even harder than the previous one.

The girl resisted the pain, took a deep breath, and continued:

"I... will let [humans] get [evolution]."

"No matter what kind of catastrophe, what kind of medicine... I will not let them humiliate [humanity] like this again."

"I will never... let them become disgusting like you..."

"【monster】."

These provocative words undoubtedly ignited the man's anger, he struggled to sit up, his tall figure completely enveloped the girl's petite body, like the horror that was coming.

Children naturally cannot compete with adults in terms of strength, and Mebius knows exactly what will happen next.

—that was exactly what she needed.

"I'm done talking, you can continue to fight."

........................

night.

The girl packed her luggage—she didn't have a lot of luggage, and the schoolbag she usually used to go to school was enough to hold them all.

For her, the most important thing, knowledge, exists in her mind.

She carried her schoolbag on her back, walked lightly through the living room, and came to the front door.

Mebius decided to run away from home.

Of course, she had already planned to do this a long time ago, and the reason for her delay in taking any action was probably due to the little affection left in her heart with her father.

But today, he buried the girl's last thought with his own hands.

Because of the atrocities imposed on him today, his already overwhelmed body has become even worse. He... will not be aware of his behavior of leaving at night.

"..."

The girl wanted to sigh, but in the end she didn't do so. She pushed open the door and left without looking back.

If she wanted to fulfill the vow she made today, she couldn't continue to stay in this warm home, she had to leave here.

Otherwise, she has no doubt that one day she will be beaten to death by that man on the brink of destruction, and then die prematurely - the slap on her face that is getting harder every day is the most powerful proof.

The wind on the street was very cold, and it was winter, and Mebius walked on the street alone.

It is not easy for a nine-year-old child to live alone in this society, or even impossible.

Even if she wants to rely on being a child laborer to earn the capital to survive, she is too young, and even the black-hearted boss can't look down on her value.

Those familiar neighbors, relatives and friends are not an optional direction. With their ordinary intelligence and touching understanding ability, no matter how you explain to them, going around will only send you back to that home in the end.

Fortunately, she still has an option to try.

She took out her mobile phone from her pocket - it was a gift she had received from her gentle father.

Although it is only a flip phone, it is already the most valuable possession in the girl's body. When necessary, this will be her last source of funds.

She opened her text message mailbox, and the latest message was that she had an appointment with someone in the park.

She has a "net friend".

Although she has never met, she has been in regular contact with this friend.

The reason for meeting him is no longer reliable, maybe I met him when I was looking for a solution to my father's illness on a medical forum.

During a chat, she accidentally learned that this friend happened to live in the same city as herself.

He is different from others. When she preaches her life philosophy that is different from ordinary people, he will not regard it as fantasy or nonsense, but will encourage it.

He is a good [listener].

With the idea of ​​giving it a try, she took the initiative to ask the other party out to meet.

Of course, being a netizen offline is not an absolutely safe thing, so the girl's finger is always on the alarm button.

Mebius arrived at the scheduled location, where a man was already waiting.

When she saw the other party, the other party also noticed him.

"You are [Snake Snake], right?"

"Are you [Che Che]?"

Of course, you must use your screen name when surfing the Internet, and no one will be allowed to use their real names to access the Internet.

"...Are you snickering?"

Young Mebius couldn't understand.

That expression is more like the feeling of discovering an old thing well protected by a friend - but where does she get "old"?

In short, she whispered her request to the man in front of her.

She needs an environment where she can study normally, and for this environment, she is willing to pay for anything she can do.

"Okay, I understand, I promise you."

He nodded.

"If you don't agree, I..."

The girl's voice stopped abruptly.

"You said...you agreed?"

There was disbelief in her voice.

She originally expected that even if the other party agreed, this would not be an easy deal, so she prepared many possible arguments in advance.

"Ah."

He nodded again.

"Until you are an adult and can live independently, I will take care of your life."

Little Mebius couldn't help frowning because of the man's overly sincere attitude and his quick consent.

In most occasions, when one's wishes come true too smoothly, there must be something wrong.

Direct support until adulthood... She didn't even say the price she wanted in advance... She wouldn't believe this kind of pie in the sky.

She is completely different from her peers.

Human trafficking?child labor?Organ trafficking?still……

She carefully considered the possible purpose and identity of the other party. In her heart, she had already regarded the man in front of her as a demon engaged in a shameful black industry.

In terms of common sense, she should use her mobile phone to call the police station immediately, and then run to the crowded place in this park——

Although it's a pity, she still made adequate preparations before planning to leave, and she didn't just put her eggs in this one basket. She can also rely on other methods to survive, and she doesn't have to rely on this suspicious person in front of her. guy...

Just when the girl was about to act like this, the man in front of her suddenly said:

"Don't be in a hurry. It's not too late to go to the new residence to have a look before making a decision. It's not far away. It's near this park."

"...Is there anything special about that?"

The girl refused.

Hmph, what you say may not be true, I'm afraid it's not just words to comfort yourself, but it may actually be some dark and remote city corner or an underground black factory. If you are taken there, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to escape .

"I rent the house opposite the police station, directly opposite, on the first floor, the kind where the police can be dispatched by opening the door or window and shouting."

"..."

........................

The man's residence was indeed across from the police station.

The place where Mebius and her father originally lived, and the entire area nearby, can be regarded as an upper-middle-class residential area. After all, before his personality changed drastically, his father was also a well-known doctor...

Therefore, the law and order in this area is relatively better, and the police station in front of us is one of the elements for maintaining law and order.

He opened the door and walked in first.
