Mom walked up to Gu Yi and took Gu Yi's hand.
"How many times have I told you? No entry here."
"Why?"
"This is your father's room. No one can enter without his permission."
"Dad is in there?"
"He was on a business trip."
"Then why can't we enter?"
"You need to be beaten again? Why is there so much nonsense? If I tell you not to come in, don't come in!"
Mom seemed a little impatient and raised her palm high.
Gu Yi could only surrender and whispered: "I'm sorry, Mom."
"You can go sit in the living room, watch TV or play on your mobile phone. You are not allowed to stay upstairs."
"oh."
Gu Yi sighed and could only sit in the living room.
While her mother was cooking in the kitchen, she would look at Gu Yi from time to time, which greatly restricted Gu Yi's movements.
The gibbering in his mind appeared from time to time, making him very annoyed.
"Kill him...kill him..."
Gu Yi held his cheek and looked back.
There was a child covered in blood standing on the porch. He slowly raised his head and found that he had a face exactly like his own, except that there was a bullet hole as thick as a finger on his head.
"Hee hee hee……"
The child smiled slightly and turned into bones again in the blink of an eye.
Ever since his mother came home, Gu Yi often saw visions of his own death.
The first thing he did was hang himself from a tree.
Now he was shot in the head again with a pistol.
"The murmurs in his mind, coupled with the vision of death. Does this imply that the male protagonist is actually a child with mental illness? There are no crows in the world. Are they all external manifestations of the male protagonist's mental illness?"
Gu Yi continued to summarize in his mind.
The system still has no indication. This is not a secret in the plot.
"That's right. If it were really that simple, it wouldn't be given a B-level rating. The crow must be an actual monster. I was mistaken in thinking so."
"time to eat."
Gu Yi's thoughts were interrupted by his mother's call.
Gu Yi sat at the dining table, pretending to eat a few mouthfuls of food, and then helped his mother wash the dishes. Mom nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Go take a shower and go to your room to sleep."
"So early? It's only after six o'clock."
"It's getting late. You must be in bed before eight o'clock."
"Fine."
Gu Yi nodded and returned to his room after taking a shower. Mom was sitting at her desk reading, not lying on the bed.
"Mother……"
"You go to sleep, I'll watch you."
"You won't leave, will you?"
"rest assured."
Mom said nothing and just continued reading.
Gu Yi sighed.
To be on the safe side, he saved another file in Archive 1, and then lay on the bed.
As soon as he closed his eyes, Gu Yi fell into a deep sleep.
"Kill him...kill him..."
Gu Yi had a nightmare, and those annoying murmurs sounded again, waking up Gu Yi from his deep sleep.
Gu Yi turned his head and looked over.
There was a black thing on the window sill. It turned out that the crow was standing on one foot, with its head hidden in its wings.
Hearing Gu Yi's movements, the crow stretched out its head, its eyes flashing red.
"Gah——"
The crow flew over and went straight to Gu Yi's eyes.
Gu Yi dodged in time, but his forehead was still pricked by the crow's claws, leaving a bloody mark.
"Mother!"
Gu Yi shouted loudly, but no one responded.
I have no choice but to save myself!
Gu Yi quickly jumped off the bed, picked up the trash can and put it upside down on Crow's head. He looked around, trying to find a weapon.
Dong dong dong——
The trash can kept shaking.
Gu Yi's face changed slightly and he quickly pressed his butt against the trash can.
"Gah——"
The crows in the trash can turned into two, and two into four, rapidly multiplying and dividing into a flock of crows.
Soon, Gu Yi could no longer hold the trash can and was knocked to the ground by the crow.
Crows filled the room, and they regrouped into a tall humanoid monster. He looked left and right, picked up the pillow at hand, and walked towards Gu Yi with a grin.
"mom!"
Gu Yi shouted and rushed out of the door. He pushed open the door of his mother's room, only to find that the quilt in the room was not spread out - his mother did not even spend the night at home.
Ta-ta-
Crow footsteps sounded behind.
Gu Yi trembled all over and hurriedly got under the bed and tried to escape, but the crow was one step ahead and reached out to grab Gu Yi's ankle.
"Gah——"
Crow pulled Gu Yi out, pressed his body against Gu Yi's body, picked up a pillow and pressed Gu Yi's head.
Gu Yi struggled for a moment, but to no avail.
Gu Yi's eyes were blood red...
"Read file 1."
Gu Yi didn't even listen to the system prompts, so he chose to reload the file and returned to his bed. Once he falls asleep, he can no longer fight the monster.
Moreover, it seems that his mother is unwilling to abide by the agreement to sleep with him. She will not even stay at home tonight.
Gu Yi turned his head and looked at his mother.
"Mom, don't leave, okay?"
"Have I not always been here?"
"I mean, don't leave halfway."
"Okay, I won't leave halfway."
Mom waved her hand, put down the book in her hand, and carried Gu Yi to the bed.
"Hey, mommy can't hold you anymore, and you're still clinging to her like a baby. You're so old, why can't you leave me?"
"Mom, there really is a monster in our house."
Gu Yi turned his head and looked at the window, only to see himself lying on the glass with his face covered in blood, with stab wounds all over his neck, chest, and limbs.
"ah!"
Gu Yi shouted and pointed at the window.
"What's wrong?"
"There's something out there."
"Where is there anything?"
Mom shook her head and opened the window.
The lights outside were dim and there was nothing.
"Look, it's fine outside."
"Woooo..."
Gu Yi really had no choice but to cry to win sympathy. This trick worked as expected. Mom actually sat over and lay down with Gu Yi in her arms.
"Okay, mommy will stay with you."
"Um……"
Gu Yi lay on the bed sobbing, and his mother lay next to him and patted his shoulder gently. Gu Yi just closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.
Don't fall asleep...
Don't fall asleep!
Gu Yi used his willpower to resist the drowsiness imposed on him by the system, and finally managed to survive.
After her mother stayed with Gu Yi for five minutes, she sat up from the bed. Gu Yi closed his eyes and heard the sound of his mother leaving.
Click——
Mom quietly closed the door and walked down the stairs.
Gu Yi jumped out of bed and saw his mother driving away from the villa.
"Where is she going?"
Gu Yi shook his head, turned around and ran out of the villa, when the annoying murmur sounded in his ears again.
"Kill him...kill him..."
Thumping, fluttering—
A crow landed on the wall. It looked around as if looking for a weapon. Gu Yi sneered and rushed home to look for self-defense equipment.
He rushed into the kitchen, picked up the kitchen knife, and turned to look behind him.
The crow also followed into the kitchen and looked at Gu Yi with burning eyes.
"Come on, stupid bird!"
Boom!
Gu Yi rushed over and struck Crow on the head with his knife.
