Xiangchun Mental Sanatorium, Room 614.
Zhao Er looked at Ning Qiushui, who was sitting across from him on the bed, with slight admiration in his eyes.
"Many people wanted to come to me before, but they were all taken away."
"Your response was quick enough. You actually thought of contacting the administrator to find me immediately."
"If you were any slower, the phone would be useless."
Ning Qiushui on the opposite side was not in very good condition at this time. There was a blood-red fingerprint on the back of his neck, and the surrounding skin had even begun to fester.
"I didn't expect that I almost lost my life just by meeting you."
Ning Qiushui's voice was very calm, not at all like someone who had just been close to death.
Zhao Er poured him a glass of boiled water.
"I don't have any drinks here, so just make do with it."
"You are different from them. You seem to be very accepting of what you just experienced."
Ning Qiushui took the boiled water in his hand and drank it in one gulp.
"They are all people who have been to the Blood Gate. Of course they are not atheists."
Zhao Er shook his head.
"No, no, no, these are two different things."
"Many of the weirdos who have been to the Blood Gate are also firm atheists."
"They firmly believe that their world is completely free of ghosts."
"You are different from them. You are not surprised at all. Have you seen ghosts before?"
Ning Qiushui nodded.
"I bumped into him, and I almost died there and didn't come back."
Zhao Er poured himself a glass of boiled water, wore the hospital gown, and sat cross-legged on his bed.
"It's rare that someone from outside can sit in my room alive and I can chat with you."
"Tell me, why did you come to me?"
Ning Qiushui shrugged.
"I want to go with you tomorrow."
There was a lot more in Zhao Er's eyes at this moment.
Even if someone knew that he was a trickster, it was impossible to know in detail the time he entered.
He never told anyone else about these things.
Who is the other party?
How do you know the time when he comes in?
Ning Qiushui, who had read the document given by Bai Xiaoxiao, knew that the letter specifically mentioned the time when Zhao Er entered the house. As long as the person involved does not tell this kind of thing, it is difficult for outsiders to know through investigation.
"really interesting……"
A smile appeared on Zhao Er's face.
Even Ning Qiushui felt some inexplicable shuddering when she saw his smile.
For some reason, whenever a smile appeared on Zhao Er's face, Ning Qiushui had a strange illusion, that is, the Zhao Er in front of him was not a human being.
The other party is not used to this body yet.
"Do you know the time I come in?"
Ning Qiushui shrugged.
"right."
"How did you know?"
The two looked at each other for a while, and Zhao Er said matter-of-factly:
"Of course, if you answer my questions, I will answer your questions."
"You took such a big risk to come to this place to find me, you can't just sit here like this."
Ning Qiushui shook his head.
"I'm just thinking about whether I should tell you about this matter."
"Then you can ask a question that interests you first."
"What happened to those things just now?"
Zhao Er is very frank:
"As you can see, they are ghosts."
Ning Qiushui recalled what happened just now, and a light flashed in her eyes.
"What about you, are you a ghost too?"
Zhao Er showed his charming smile again.
"Me? I'm different from them."
He did not immediately deny Ning Qiushui's point of view, which was an interesting attitude.
In other words, he was actually talking to Ning Qiushui - you guessed it right.
"At least in this world, I'm human."
Zhao Er said something strange again.
Ning Qiushui:
"Are you really human?"
"But I don't think one person can save me from a group of ghosts in the situation just now."
Zhao Er said calmly:
"That's because you don't know them well enough."
“If you know them inside and out, you can do it.”
Ning Qiushui:
"So you know them well?"
Zhao Er's tone was quite meaningful:
"Of course I know them."
"After all, I've been living with them for a long time."
"Now have you thought about whether you want to tell me or not? How did you know the time I came in?"
Ning Qiushui said:
“Do you know ‘faith’?”
After hearing the "letter", Zhao Er's expression suddenly became relieved and he smiled:
"Yes, if you believe it...this will all be a matter of course."
"It seems you are also the chosen one."
Ning Qiushui:
"What is a chosen one?"
"Who chose us?"
Zhao Er:
"I don't know much about them either, but those who dare to reveal secrets about me should be the guys from the Ninth Gate."
Hearing this, Ning Qiushui vaguely understood something from the other party's words.
"Behind the Blood Gate, isn't there a complete world, also divided into branches?"
Zhao Er shook his head, and then nodded again.
"The world is indeed a complete world, but this has nothing to do with the Blood Gate itself."
"It's hard for me to explain this problem to you...it can't be explained clearly in a few words. To describe it simply, it probably means that the Blood Sect has nothing to do with the world."
"Whether it's this world or that world."
Ning Qiushui frowned.
"It has nothing to do with the world, so what does it have to do with it?"
Zhao Er:
"people."
"people?"
"There are some things I can't tell you in detail. Don't ask any more questions. If I insist on telling you forcefully, it will probably bring disaster to you."
When Zhao Er said this, he stopped himself in time and led the topic to another matter:
"You can come in with me tomorrow if you want."
"But there is one thing I want to make clear to you."
Having said this, Zhao Er once again had a weird smile on his face:
"I'm different from you... I'm not a trickster."
The expression on Ning Qiushui's face changed.
"It's not a trickster, what is that?"
Zhao Er said:
"When you enter the Blood Gate tomorrow, you will naturally know."
"By the way, I can give you an important tip in advance."
Ning Qiushui nodded:
"Okay, you tell me, I'll remember it."
Zhao Er said slowly:
"The theme of my next bloody door is 'Return to the Soul'."
"You must be careful of people who are still alive, because... they are more terrifying than the dead!"
pS: Well, the dungeon of Soul Resurrection is the beginning. In addition to the dungeon, this Blood Gate also contains a certain analysis of the world view.
It will be the third update tomorrow, good night.
