Twelve years ago, Qingyan City.
Late in the summer night, the sound of torrential rain drowned out the swearing emanating from the abandoned factory.
"Damn it! His mother actually said that he didn't care about his son's life and death, and would not give him a dime, and then hung up the phone!"
The kidnapper was so angry that he wanted to smash the phone.
"What?" The companion was shocked and stood up abruptly, "We don't want much, and his son's life can't be worth five million? Their family is so rich..."
"Ghost knows it!" The kidnapper spat, and he saw a ghost. He looked at his companion, "Are you sure it's his son Xie Chi?"
"It's him! That's true!"
"In that case," the kidnapper looked at the iron cage hidden in the darkness and sneered, "If your parents want money and don't want you, then don't blame us for being rude!"
A dazzling flash of lightning flashed, instantly illuminating the dark factory, showing the cold light shining knife in the kidnapper's hand, and Xiao Xiechi in the iron cage.
Xiao Xiechi was wearing a white school uniform, with a clean face and a gentle temperament at a young age, but half of his face hidden in the darkness was extremely gloomy, and violence spread quietly in his pupils.
The lightning passed, and the factory was completely dark again, but the companion noticed Xie Chi's expression in the light and flint just now, and his heart was inexplicably a little hairy.
Seeing that Xie Chi was silent, the kidnapper said with a sneer: "It's just different for the little brat from the rich family. They are quite daring and have a temper, don't they? I'll kill you if I don't play later..."
As he spoke, he undid the iron chain on the cage that was thicker than a finger.
The companion held him hesitantly: "Boss, I, I think there is something wrong with this child. Let's let him fend for himself. Anyway, if he stays here for a few days, he will probably be useless if he doesn't die..."
The kidnapper kicked him away: "Trash! Even a child is afraid, what can he turn over—"
A pair of beautiful slender little hands suddenly caught the kidnapper's wrist.
In the next burst of lightning and thunder, the kidnapper saw Xie Chi showing him a cold and malicious smile.
…
A few days later, someone reported to the police that there was a suspicious smell in an abandoned factory in the suburbs. They looked out the window and could faintly see black hairs on the ground.
When the police arrived, it was summer, and the corpse had already decayed, becoming a feast for flies and mosquitoes. The scene was horrible.
Only after the comparison did the police discover that the two were the major criminals they had been arresting, but they died here for some unknown reason.
There was an open iron cage next to the body, and there were slight signs of fighting at the scene.
Given that the two have kidnapped others many times, all with the same handwriting, the truth seems to be self-evident—
The two should have been kidnapped and killed by the hostages.
Strangely, there was no information about the identity of the hostages left at the scene, fingerprints, DNA, nothing.
The kidnappers' mobile phone also appears to have been taken by the hostages.
Nothing could be found, and the case was finally settled.
This incident also became a joke at the time, and the two became "the most humiliating kidnappers in history".
…
Twelve years later, the exhibition building in the center of Qingyan City.
The female UP host stood in front of the scary horror painting and said to the audience in the live broadcast room: "I am now in the exhibition of Xie Chi's paintings that you are thinking about, the UP owner is timid, watching the horror painting is a real sacrifice for you. Too many! Shouldn't it be time for a wave of small gifts?"
The barrage is brushing quickly—
[Are you here to see horror paintings? ! You are here to see the face, superficial]
[We are all shallow women]
[Don't bring me in front, I'm here to see the painting! The previous picture of "Skinsman" made me sleepless all night Otz, I came to abuse again]
[I, I'm new here, I would like to ask if the horror paintings are mentally abnormal? ]
[You are talking nonsense! My husband is super gentle and polite! He has a good temper and loves to laugh! ]
[Sisters, let’s talk straight, how many of them became fans of Zanchi because of the previous video? ]
Lord up saw the last one, and his eyes showed admiration, Xie Chihuo's is really too simple.
A video of Xie Chi's painting was circulated on the Internet before.
The young man with clear eyes and gentle and gentle eyes painted terrifying and ferocious paintings, and the lifelike ghost on the paper showed sharp fangs at him, as if he was about to bite off that beautiful and slender hand in the next second.
Like the contrast between beauty and the beast, it gives people a great visual impact and is unforgettable.
There are countless curious inquirers, and horror painter Xie Chi became famous overnight.
…
At the same time, in the private lounge of the exhibition building, Xie Chi approached the sofa by the floor-to-ceiling window with water.
The old man sitting on the sofa was named Jiang Hua. Before retiring, he was a world-famous psychiatrist. He just returned to China in the past two days. Because of Xie Chi's split personality, he maintained a correspondence with Xie Chi for 12 years.
Xie Chi brought the water to Jiang Hua, sat on the opposite sofa, and smiled sincerely: "I heard that you don't sleep well, so you didn't put tea, and added some lilies to help you sleep."
Jiang Hua looked at the lily stretched in the water, and couldn't help but give him a blank look: "You can't blame me for the central air conditioner."
After all, Jiang Hua had seen Xie Chi's sub-personality, and knew what kind of demon was hidden under his gentle face. It was the main character with strong sociality in front of him, and it was not what it was on the surface at all, it was simply a neuropathy.
Xie Chi glanced at him lazily and said with a smile, "It's still worth using."
Jiang Hua choked.
Xie Chi clasped his hands: "I won't talk nonsense, I found a way to separate me from Xinglan."
Xie Xinglan, the sub-personality of Xie Chi.
Jiang Hua raised his head in shock, thinking he had misunderstood: "When you say 'separation', you mean..."
"It's what you think," Xie Chi laughed and said clearly, "Let Xie Xinglan get a body and separate from me."
Jiang Hua's face was full of disbelief: "How is it possible?"
It's easy to disappear and separate... It's a fantasy, Jiang Hua has been in the industry for 30 to 40 years.
Xie Chi took out a thick stack of documents from under the coffee table and handed it to Jiang Hua.
Jiang Hua took it in confusion.
The top sheet of the document reads:
Zhou, male, with advanced lung cancer, went home for recuperation.
He disappeared suddenly from his home in June this year, and his family was anxious to find him.
Five days later, Zhou suddenly returned home, and his family had dinner around the table to celebrate, but Zhou was hit by a crystal lamp that accidentally fell from the top of the table, and his head blossomed.
After investigation, all the screws used to fix the crystal lamp fell off in an instant.
On the second one:
Huang, female, full-time wife. Due to too many abortions in his early years, he could not bear children, and the relationship between husband and wife, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was not harmonious.
In mid-May this year, he disappeared from the world after going out to buy vegetables. Four days later, he reappeared at the gate of the community, but was bitten to death by a dog in the security room who suddenly went mad.
The weird thing is... that dog doesn't go crazy after biting someone.
The third, the fourth...
Jiang Hua looked at it, only to feel shocked, it was all such a strange and impeccable accidental death.
Jiang Hua couldn't help but glanced at Xie Chi, so Xie Chi has been investigating these in recent years
Xie Chi took a sip of water and said, "99% of this stack is this kind of 'accident'."
He said it lightly and casually. Jiang Hua felt the weight of the material, but felt that invisible hair was wrapped around his neck, and it was constricted little by little, depriving it of oxygen.
Jiang Hua's lips were dry for a while, and subconsciously asked: "You just said 99%, then the remaining 1%..."
Xie Chi glanced at him and smiled meaningfully: "It's an inexplicable winner in life."
Jiang Hua was surprised: "It's inexplicable?"
Xie Chi leaned over, flipped through the page numbers in the lower right corner of the document, took out a few pieces of paper, and handed it to Jiang Hua.
The first sheet of paper reads:
Gao Mou, female, failed plastic surgery and was subject to medical technology, and there was no hope for her face to be repaired for nearly ten years.
Gao disappeared in April this year, and returned half a month later. Not only did the terrible scars on his face fully recover, but he was so beautiful that no one around him could recognize him.
Jiang Hua turned down incredibly quickly.
There are all such examples. In the beginning, what you asked for was not available, and he disappeared for a period of time in the middle. When he came back, his strange dream came true.
The poor became rich overnight, the blind who were born blind regained their sight, and even those who had already entered the coffin cheated the corpse...
"How could this be..." Jiang Hua couldn't help muttering.
Xie Chi asked with a smile, "Have you found any commonalities among these people?"
The last three words lingered on Xie Chi's lips for a moment, and they became more intriguing.
Jiang Hua pondered for a moment, and then said, "There are unfulfilled wishes, such as the late stage lung cancer who wants to live, and the full-time wife who wants to get pregnant..."
"They've all been missing for a while, and when they come back, they either die in an 'accident', or they live happily ever after..."
Xie Chi nodded, and through the floor-to-ceiling windows, quietly watched the white-collar workers entering and leaving the opposite building. They have delicate makeup, bright clothes, and friendly smiles.
A group of gold and jade outside.
Xie Chi looked at it for a while, snorted softly, and said casually: "No matter how perfect people are, they have desires, and there are things they want but can't get temporarily or even forever."
"Some people choose to suppress and become contented saints. Some people let it go, and in their unremitting pursuit, their hopes are born and shattered, and life is endless."
"So there is a mysterious force in this world that specifically selects those who are unwilling and unwilling to give up, and trades with them."
"Advanced lung cancer and full-time wives belong to this type of people. One of them wants to live, to break through the limits of medicine, and the other wants to have children and make up for the mistakes of the past."
"The content of the transaction is unknown, and nothing has been found. During the transaction, people will disappear for a while, and the transaction results are as you can see—"
Xie Chi said calmly: "The loser ends with death, and the winner gets what they want."
Jiang Hua's heart trembled. What Xie Chi said subverted his three views. After a long time, he found his voice: "So, so what you said about separating you from Xie Xinglan..."
The answer was obvious, but Jiang Hua couldn't say it for a while.
Xie Chi gave him a deep look, and smiled and said the answer in his heart: "'it', it will definitely find me."
Jiang Hua was instantly stunned.
Yes, Xie Chi also has unfulfilled wishes, unwilling to give up.
Otherwise why investigate these things
Xie Chi took out the glasses cloth from his shirt pocket, took off his glasses and wiped them, and sighed helplessly: "I really, waited for a long time."
Jiang Hua thought crazy. Xie Chi looked forward to the arrival of things that others could not avoid.
Xie Chi said: "After saying so much, if one day I suddenly disappear, I would like to ask you to help me with trivial matters."
Jiang Hua responded in a complicated mood, and after a while, he barely digested what Xie Chi said.
He looked at Xie Chi, who was light and windy, and had an inexplicable feeling that Xie Chi would disappear soon.
It is also benevolence.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hua actually felt a little relieved, so he simply asked a question he had been wanting to ask for the past two years but was too embarrassed to ask: "Well, what is the relationship between you and Xie Xinglan...?"
He always felt that there was something unspeakable between these two people, and every time he saw Xie Xinglan, he would deepen this idea.
Xie Xinglan was clearly cool and cold, but when he talked about Xie Chi, he became like a person, exuding an air that was difficult for the elderly Jiang Hua to distinguish.
Xie Chi paused for a while, and seemed to be considering the appropriate vocabulary. After a long while, he raised his head and smiled a little weirdly: "… roommate relationship."
Jiang Hua was stunned for a moment, and was immediately amused by him: "You're right, it's a 'roommate relationship'."
Living together in the same body is not an alternative roommate relationship.
…
Before going to bed that night, when Xie Chi dealt with mobile phone information as usual, he found that the mobile phone was downloading software in the background.
The software name is "horror movie actor".
Junk software
Xie Chi frowned, clicked pause and wanted to delete it, but there was no response.
The software was installed and started automatically. The next second, the screen of the mobile phone suddenly turned scarlet, and a line of black characters in the center was agitating and jumping, like the temptation of the devil.
[Xie Chi, do you have any wish to fulfill? Pick one or more below. ]
Xie Chi trembled suddenly when he saw the word "wish".
Could it be... "it"
Several options have popped up on the screen at this point, the first one is-
[Let Xie Xinglan get the body]
Xie Chi's pupils shrank slightly.
For some reasons, Xie Chi has never exposed Xie Xinglan's existence in the public eye, but this app not only knows about Xie Xinglan, but also his wishes.
So, did you really find him
Xie Chi slightly hooked the corner of his mouth.
He looked down immediately.
Option two -
[As Pet1.0 killed the owner who bought himself]
Xie Chi stared at option two for a long time, as if some unpleasant memory had been evoked, and his expression gradually became cold.
Pet1.0, a long time ago name, how long has it been since no one called him that
Even such a distant and dark desire can be revealed, and the app seems to be omnipotent.
Another black line -
[Your desire is pure, so there are only two options. ]
Xie Chi didn't hesitate, and only checked option one.
[Wish value is being measured, please wait. ]
[The wish to "let Xie Xinglan get the body" is priced at 1w points, do you confirm it? ]
Xie Chi had no idea about 1w points, so he clicked [Confirm] directly.
[Actor Xie Chi's wish has been filled in and the registration is successful, please wait a moment, our death designer is designing the death method for you if the transaction fails. ]
Death designer
So those "accidental deaths" in the real world were all designed by him
Xie Chi raised his eyebrows with interest.
While waiting, he lit a cigarette, leaned against the wall and started smoking idly.
A few minutes later, a picture appeared on Xie Chi's phone screen.
Below the painting, Xie Chi fell into a pool of blood, and the blood continued to overflow from the back of his head.
Above the painting is a roaring truck, which should be the one that caused the accident. The painted green body is splashed with blood, and the contrast between red and green is extremely depressing.
The painting is in perspective, there is a black shadow lying on the back of the truck driver, what the painting wants to express, it should be a ghost.
You can notice that there is an empty wine bottle lying on the passenger seat.
The information of the painting is put together like this - the ghost-controlled drunk driving truck driver killed Xie Chi.
So the result of Xie Chi's failed transaction was death in a car accident.
For Xie Chi, who is a colleague, apart from the complete information, this painting is really unsightly and has no beauty at all. It is simply a blasphemy against such a great thing as death.
And the way of death designed is extremely mediocre, the car accident is still so-so, and the disaster design of being killed by a chandelier and bitten by a mad dog before Xie Chi thinks about it.
Xie Chi crossed the painting without expression.
Out of sight is pure.
The black lettering finally begins to continue—
[Actors can reliably survive in real horror movies, explore the plot to delight the "audience", and earn points to fulfill their wishes. The detailed rules and explanations will be sent to the background of your app in a while, please pay attention to check them. If you have any questions, you can consult your agent people. ]
Survive and explore the plot in a horror movie? And a broker
... kind of interesting.
Xie Chi smiled, not ignoring the quotation marks for the word "audience" in this sentence.
[After randomly assigning brokers, brokers have been automatically added as friends. ]
[It must be noted that from now on, do not attempt to artificially damage the phone, the consequences will be the same as the painting that the designer just sent you. ]
[Now, please click on the screen to extract the novice compulsory horror movie. If you do not click for 30 seconds, it will be automatically extracted. ]
Three identical black card packs appeared on the screen.
Xie Chi casually ordered one, and opened the card package. It was a green card with the words "red-clothed grievances" written on it.
The background of the picture is all black. In the center is a red skirt hanging in the air. Under the red skirt is a pair of neatly arranged red high-heeled shoes.
[Congratulations on your selection of the "The Wraith in Red", a decrypted ghost film with "shoddy" quality. ]
Decrypt the ghost film? Xie Chi was startled.
Because of professional reasons, Xie Chi will watch horror movies to accumulate material, and he has a relatively good understanding of the classification of horror movies.
Deciphering the direction corresponds to the fact that there is no solution. "The Grudge" is a typical horror film with no solution. Ghosts don't pay attention to cause and effect. Whoever kills depends on the mood.
And decryption to ghost films, generally speaking, ghosts are born for a reason.
For example, female students are bullied on campus, and after jumping off the building to commit suicide, their resentment turns into ghosts.
In the decrypted ghost films, the objects killed by ghosts are generally special.
As the saying goes, the injustice has the head and the debt has the owner, whoever harmed it in his lifetime will avenge whoever it dies. Of course, it will also affect others, but it is fundamentally different from unsolved horror films.
Another point is that as long as you find the source of the ghost's birth, you can find a way to resolve the resentment and survive.
Unsolved horror films are annihilated every day, just because the curse has no solution and exists forever, even if the source of the birth of the ghost is found, it will not help, the damned will still die.
Therefore, "The Wraith in Red" is a decrypted ghost film, which is good news and proves that there is a way for this film to survive.
And the quality is still "shoddy", the difficulty should not be too high, suitable for novices.
Xie Chi glanced at the other two opened card packs, both of which were green, one was a shoddy haunted house ghost movie, and the other was a shoddy death loop movie.
These are the most popular types of films in the current film market.
The app loads for a while, and a quote from the horror movie The Wraith in Red pops up—
[There is a large company in the suburbs of City B. Every year when the Mid-Autumn Festival (July and a half) is approaching, the boss will give all employees seven days off, and then pay sky-high wages to hire a few temporary workers to maintain the basic operation of the company, but those temporary workers In the end, without exception, the workers all died tragically. It's the Mid-Year Festival again, and a new batch of temporary workers have joined the... ]
[You will play as one of the newly recruited temporary workers and explore the company's hidden secrets. ]
[Transferring, please wait. ]
The scene in front of Xie Chi began to distort and fade.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself standing in front of a luxurious company building.
The author has something to say:
Xie Xinglan: Cohabitation relationship.
Jiang Hua, who didn't get it at all.
The text is open, the plot is moving towards Shuangwen, and the flow is upgraded.
Suffering from wilting, Goldfinger is her boyfriend.
