With a plop, the shaky light bulb finally fell to the ground and eventually shattered into pieces in the room.
A bright light followed, as if someone had regained the light.
Xie Chen opened his eyes with difficulty and looked at the very familiar ceiling in front of him. He knew very well that this was his room.
However, this room was already a devastated scene. The walls and floor were all covered in blood. Various corpses wearing uniforms were lying around the room.
The room was filled with a disgusting smell of blood, even a slaughterhouse wouldn't have such a strong smell.
The death conditions of these corpses were particularly tragic, and without exception, their heads had exploded, with thick plasma and brains splattering out, making it unbearable to look at.
Xie Chen raised his head with great effort, feeling as if his whole body was falling apart.
After turning his head slightly, he could find a strange creature that looked almost human but not human, lying next to the bed on his right hand.
This creature is like mist, giving people an ethereal feeling.
But when he was lying on the bed, there was no movement at all, but he still exuded a particularly depressing aura, which made him feel a little breathless when he woke up.
On his left, there was an adult woman with a delicate face, also wearing a uniform. She was leaning against the wall at the moment, with blood oozing from her mouth and nose on her particularly kind face.
But it could still be seen that she was still breathing.
Xie Chen moved his body slightly, feeling a pain in his body, but he could feel that he was holding an old doll tightly in his arms, as well as his own notes.
This old notebook seemed to have gone through some process that it shouldn't have gone through. The cover was already dirty and it was hard to even see clearly.
There is a lot of mud in the middle of the paper, and there are several footprints on the sides. It can be seen that it has been stepped on by many feet.
This diary is filled with all kinds of strange symbols, which look like characters, but it is impossible to understand what is being recorded.
"Are you finally awake?"
"child……"
A soft, gentle voice sounded in his ears.
Xie Chen looked at the woman leaning against the wall on his left, kept silent, and did not respond to her question.
"You are very brave. Don't worry. The problem has basically been solved now. Just put down what you are doing and come over to my side."
"Let me, let me take you out, to a safe place, to a place where you will never be in danger again."
As she spoke with difficulty, blood was still coughing out of her mouth, but she still stretched out her hand, trying to reach her palm towards her.
Xie Chen remained vigilant and did not attract his attention just because of these two or three sentences.
But it was more because I had just woken up and I had no idea what was going on in the room.
"Safety?"
"Where else can he go to a safe place?"
"Hahaha, aren't you kidding him?"
"Is your lockdown room a so-called safe place? It's really safe..."
"It would be worse to live like that than die, and it would be better to die quickly. It's really ironic."
I could clearly feel that the mist-like creature lying on the bed to my right was moving strangely.
But there was no movement, but the sound came from deep within his consciousness, ringing in his ears very clearly.
"Kid, come here quickly, don't let it get close to you."
"You...you actually know about the lockdown room..."
The woman lying next to the wall was speaking tremblingly, as if every opening and closing of her mouth was particularly laborious.
"Hahaha, of course I know, I hide it deep in everyone's heart, but you can rest assured that I am definitely going to die."
The woman seemed to be able to see the creature lying on the bed. She wiped the blood from her mouth with her hand and stared at the bedside.
"But I don't feel any fear of death from you."
When the woman said this, the creature seemed very proud.
"fear?"
"I have never had any fear. Everything I built comes from you."
"From you, from him, and from everyone in the world, but to be honest, the feedback from you is the least I have ever experienced so far..."
"You, a woman, must be very capable..."
The creature next to the bed fluctuated several times. From the voice he heard in his mind, he could feel that the creature had a strong interest in the woman on the left.
Following this wave of fluctuations, the creature on the bed became more illusory.
"Haha... I'm about to die. It's so fun."
"But this is more fun than watching everything this little guy goes through!"
"Hahaha."
"What? Why are you all silent?"
"At that moment, you have actually seen his life story. Do you think he is really worthy of your redemption?"
"The selfishness and cowardice in him are much stronger than others."
Xiechen couldn't help but hug the diary and doll in his arms more tightly with both hands. He looked at this creature and asked these questions to the woman on his left.
The woman answered calmly.
"This is the 17th time I've dealt with these things. You and I both know it. It's just because it was amplified and distorted by you."
"No no no..."
"I think you really misunderstood me. I never thought of amplifying them. I just tried to guide the desires in his heart. Those things will always exist in the hearts of you guys."
"You and him, and even all the products in this world, they will have such desires and emotions."
"Just like the little guy in front of you and me, if he didn't have such a strong desire to kill in his heart, none of the people in this room would die."
"He did all this!!!"
"It's all his doing!!!"
Xie Chen was startled. He smelled the smell of blood in the room, which made his hands tremble even more.
This voice deep in my consciousness made me a little unbelievable.
But the woman's expression was very calm, and even her eyes were still clear, without any waves.
"No, you did all this. You instigated and helped him, and true kindness, bravery, trust and justice, all the morals that represent real human beings, are indeed rooted in his and everyone else's hearts."
"Even you can't change this."
“We will be redeemed in the end.”
"oh?"
"So how do you make him endure the pain of the moment?"
"Is it possible that you still want to use this pain to exchange for the salvation you promised in the future?"
"How do you make him give up the happiness I once gave him in exchange for the happiness you talk about?"
"Why are you silent? You can't do it!"
"After all, if you could do it, I wouldn't be around."
"I gave him happiness and the power of revenge. I gave him all of this!"
The woman leaning against the wall did not speak, and there were two lines of tears on her cheeks.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"I admit that all the kindness you mentioned exists. After all, it is something engraved in your human bones."
"The little guy who gave birth to me has also tried to resist me, but unfortunately most of you will never be able to defeat me, and I will never die."
"Never..."
"Even if I am no longer in this world, your inner desires will drive and give birth to all kinds of strange versions of me. At that time, I will come back to you again."
"I should say I was there from beginning to end."
"Hehehe... just wait for me. When I continue to infiltrate your hearts, I will follow and guide you."
The illusive thing lying on the bed has not yet finished speaking, but it has become more and more misty, and finally completely dissipated.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Xie Chen didn't say anything. He just held the doll and diary tightly in his arms, but finally let go.
