At the moment of losing his life, Xu Chi finally remembered everything.
"It turns out... I'm already dead..."
At that moment, the school uniform on his body was completely stained red with blood, and the wild howling night wind reverberated on the empty rooftop with three people as the core. The clouds in the sky stirred uncomfortably, but returned to silence the moment Xu Chi opened his eyes again.
Lin Huai withdrew his hand from the opponent's body.
"It hurts, it hurts..." He shook his hand, "It was almost corroded, if I knew it, I should have kicked him down to let him die and then remembered..."
Perhaps Xu Chi in red in front of him should not be called a boy—but should be called Xu Chi, the evil spirit who created a copy of "Minghua Middle School" in the low-level field. He lowered his head, looked at his blood-red hands, and let out an uncontrollable cry.
He finally woke up.
"... As early as the beginning of the dungeon, the deaths of those seven people were irreversible. Oh, except for Yu Xingjian, he had his own consciousness. I guess, he didn't die in the real world, but after falling down the corridor Became a vegetable? But his consciousness is still drawn into this illusion by you." Lin Huai started the commentary link that is necessary for the ending of each small copy of Infinity Stream, "In reality, after you complete your revenge, you will go from the rooftop Jumping down—unfortunately, you didn’t lie in a vegetable state and let the doctor take care of you until you woke up many years later, but died on the spot, and became a villain with hatred and regret for yourself that could not be dispelled. ghost."
"After becoming an evil spirit, you used your own power to create this false illusion—Yangshui City, and its core Minghua Middle School. Since you have never been to places other than Yangshui City, Yu Xingjian walked out of the toll gate , you can only see a piece of darkness.” Lin Huai said, “The evidence is that Yu Xingjian, a trend-seeking and narcissistic person, still uses iPhone6s. You can create places you have been to, but you cannot create places you have not seen. Although most of the books, you can fabricate them to make them appear normal. But you can't do it except Keigo Higashino's book, because it was Yan Xi's favorite book during his lifetime."
"In addition, due to the limitation of knowledge, it is difficult for you to make perfect plants. Although they have the appearance of normal plants, there are still differences in details such as leaf veins. You lived three years ago, so in the movie theater, The latest movie will not be shown. There is a large open space in the east of the city, which should be an amusement park, but for you, it is a place you are not familiar with."
"In your own illusion, you repeatedly repeated the three months after Yan Xi's death. Since the other five people you killed could not die again, they all appeared in the form of corpses and ghosts. a, b, d 、Class E is a ghost created by you with your own strength, and Class C is the original Class C students who were pulled in by you. Since they chose to stand by while Yan Xi was there, then the punishment you choose for them is to let They went through the three months full of fear over and over again. Only class F is one of the repeating classes that actually exist in Minghua Middle School."
"And you, the punishment you prepare for yourself is to keep experiencing, dying, and atoneting, and keep recalling the past memories at the moment of death, and then reset the memory. Although according to the level of ability, you may have already It is enough to meet the boss standard of the mid-level field, but in terms of personality weakness... you are indifferent to things other than Minghua Middle School, so you were judged by the game as a slightly friendly boss and then sent to the low-level field... "
Lin Huai followed the routine to explain the dungeon, while maintaining the soul of Yan Xi, who was supposed to dissipate immediately. Xu Chi in red looked at the pale and weak white figure quietly, and said softly after a while, "He..."
He remembered.
Before he became a ghost, when he jumped from the rooftop, he saw Yan Xi's hand.
Just as he would see every time he took revenge during his lifetime, a white figure flashed by.
At that moment, he thought that Yan Xi was here to push him down.
He thought it was fine. That guy who was always cowardly and cowardly finally got tough after his death.
Perhaps it is for this reason that there is always that red, resentful face in his environment. The only purpose of his existence is to...
kill yourself.
"Idiot." Lin Huai said coldly.
"He didn't appear to kill you, but to save you... He appeared at the murder scene, not because he forgave those who had hurt him deeply, but because he wanted to save you. He wanted to save Yes, it’s the soul of his best friend. You know him too, right? He’s the kind of person who won’t resist when he’s alive, and won’t kill people when he’s dead, so all the resentment in his body is just a white coat. Wait until you After becoming an evil spirit, he doesn't even dare to approach you, because an ordinary white-clothed evil spirit will suffer great harm if approached by a red-clothed evil spirit... "
His words were like a cold sword piercing Xu Chi's heart.
"Yeah, he is such a cowardly... and cowardly person. He is the one who was hurt, and he was the only one who died...but he still wants to... protect me as an executioner..." Xu Chi looked at With his scarlet hands, his body began to tremble involuntarily, "But he... but he... he..."
At the end of the conversation, it turned into a few sad smiles: "But he...why doesn't he hate me! I am the one who killed him..."
Suddenly, he saw that afternoon again. He watched the huge dusk gradually falling outside the window, thinking about the next thing to commit suicide.
'You, you are Xu Chi's classmate, right? '
'Could you take a look at it for me—read the novel I wrote? '
"I have always wanted to be someone like Keigo Higashino in the future... You may think it's funny, someone with such poor grades like me..."
'However, as long as people can live, there must be hope. After the college entrance examination, I left this school and went to university, and I started writing. At that time, you must see the release of my first chapter! '
Lin Huai's voice was still ringing.
"Yan Xi didn't commit suicide."
"It was a rainy day. He went to the roof to get a better signal and called you. He was locked in the teaching building, and the first person he thought of was you. Then he slipped and ran along the railing. The gap slid down the stairs...he never wanted to die."
"He Why doesn't he hate me. "
"Because you're his best friend."
The evil ghost in red knelt down on the ground, howling so much that he almost vomited his soul. Lin Huai looked at him quietly, and said: "It is useless to pursue the crimes committed by those who have died. But... you still have one thing to do."
He carefully lifted up the Yan Qi that was about to dissipate, and under the conveyance of Lin Huai's strength, he finally regained his physical body. But his expression was sluggish, his mind was lax, and it was obvious that time was running out.
"He tried to save your soul before, and finally this time, he used all his strength to hold you back. Now, you can save him." Lin Huai said, "You know how to save him, don't you?"
"how… "
"Give him your heart."
The sound of the rain gradually became quieter. At the end of the long night, the dawn was approaching, and the sky gradually became pale white. Xu Chi quietly watched Yan Xi lying in Lin Huai's arms, and he closed his eyes.
The blood-red face let out another scream of dissatisfaction, and soon, this scream became a scream.
He was no longer needed, Xu Chi, who was an evil ghost, had recovered all his power.
At the moment when the deep red color disappeared completely, Xu Chi also opened his mouth.
Crimson crystals protrude from his body, which is the source of every evil spirit or ghost's power.
It is the so-called heart of evil spirits formed by obsession.
It was a beautiful and extremely terrifying crystal, the light was in full bloom, exuding a gloomy light. The crystal was held in the palm of Xu Chi's hand. He walked towards Yan Xi and let go.
The crimson crystals flew into the body of the white ghost, gradually sank from his chest, and entered into the soul.
His body that was about to turn into flying ash finally stopped dissipating and began to condense into shape.
Lin Huai put down Yan Xi and let him lean against the stairs. The white ghost who got the heart of the red-clothed ghost is still sleeping, and after a while, he will become the new red-clothed ghost.
As the sun came out, Lin Huai looked at the skylight coming from the east, and Xu Chi's gradually weakened voice sounded from behind: "...why did you help me?"
The man didn't look back: "Because you wanted me to do this."
"..."
"It was you who made me flip heads," Lin Huai said. "It was you who wanted to end it all. And everything I did was a gift from a happy gambler. You—let me win."
"But… "
"There is nothing but. A lunatic kills without a reason. Does a lunatic need a reason to save someone?"
"... Thank you." Xu Chi whispered, "It's really, really..."
Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
He couldn't apologize, couldn't say anything else.
All he can say is thank you.
And the young man in a red suit with his back turned to him just said: "...don't think about cleaning yourself up so quickly with the bgm of the criminal suspect's confession."
"Before that, let those innocent people out of your illusion first. Not to mention the school staff and the students in class C, at least let me out of class F first. It's almost time for self-study, and I don't want to leave them psychological shadow..."
"… yes."
With the disappearance of the evil spirit's curse power, the entire school has returned to its original appearance—although the buildings there have not changed much, when Chen Haoyu and Fang Fang woke up, they still heard the panicked voices of their classmates.
"Crap!!" He screamed loudly, "Everyone in Class A, Class B, Class D, and Class E have all had plastic surgery—"
"What are you talking about in your sleep." His roommate threw him with a pillow. "Isn't our class five? Where did we come from class F? Go to exercise early, or you will be beaten by the school worker again."
The people in class f ran into a group in a panic, but the students in class c were in the gymnasium together, and slowly opened their eyes.
They seem to wake up from a very long sleep, and it seems that it is just a short dream.
At the moment of waking up, Li Xinyi shed a tear.
After the illusion was released, Lin Huai walked down from the rooftop and returned to the corridor.
Everything in the corridor still retains the appearance when he left. Qiu Ran leaned against the door unconscious, while Xia Xingye was pinned in place by him.
The moment he bowed down, Xia Xingye blinked.
Lin Huai let out a "hum", and pulled out a few nails that imprisoned the other party. Xia Xingye got up from the ground, rubbed his neck, and asked him, "Why didn't you kill me?"
"One, killing decisively is the business of the male protagonist. I am only responsible for practicing the core values of socialism... It seems that a guy has said this to me. Is there any way to save your life. Three, kill a young one, come a big one, kill a big one, come an old one. Ha... I don’t want to find work for myself at all.” Lin Huaixu complained, “ Oh, the above three points are all nonsense, the most important reason is that you still have value—”
He pressed the blade against Xia Xingye's neck: "Tell me, the way to get the ghost out of the dungeon."
Xia Xingye blinked at him: "You won't kill me, why should I tell you?"
"Oh." Lin Huai showed Nanny Rong's smile, "Then your pretty little face will be gone."
Xia Xingye: ...
