Qianye suddenly remembered that he had experienced such pain in his head when he rescued Li Jing and others.
It took several hours to wait.
The pain has finally dissipated...
At that time, he had the feeling that this would be some kind of ominous and strange connection with himself.
I just didn't expect that this thing would come so early and so suddenly...
"Qianye..."
Perrin stood by the door.
dilemma.
Seeing Qianye in such pain, she didn't know whether she should go up and take care of him at this time.
outside the door.
The thing chased from the bookstore on the first floor also found the location of Qianye and Peilan.
It seems to be smiling, in a weird and greedy way...
Naturally, Perrin couldn't block the door.
But in an instant, with a loud noise, the door behind Peilan was suddenly opened!
The current face of the fake "Qianye" has also been revealed.
Like a sea monkey, the skin all over his body was swollen and ulcerated, and there was even some unknown viscous liquid dripping on the floor.
It made an unexplained cry and stared at Qianye on the floor...
"tasty......"
Disgusting saliva flowed from his mouth.
It stepped out on its soaked feet and staggered towards Qianye.
Peilan on the side seemed to be treated as air by it, and he passed by Peilan calmly without even looking at it.
"If you don't lend it to me, you will die..."
in mind.
The owner of the cabin was still talking to Qianye.
He didn't have any emotions, it was like this was just a transaction to him, and whether Qianye died or not had nothing to do with him.
Qianye lay on the ground and gritted his teeth.
Naturally, he could see that thing getting closer and closer to him...
With his mouth wide open, a smell of blood crazily came out from inside.
Qianye didn't know what the consequences would be whether he borrowed his body or not. He never did anything he was unsure of.
He glanced at the window position.
Before the Sea Monkey could fully reach him, Qianye endured the severe pain in his head and jumped out of the window with all his strength!
He planned to break the glass and escape from this place...
I am currently on the second floor of the bookstore.
In terms of height, it won't hurt much.
If you land correctly, you can stand up and run forward.
Of course, if you are lucky and this sea monkey is a regional weirdo and only moves within the scope of the bookstore, then jumping out of the bookstore will be equivalent to disappearing from its target range...
No matter what the situation is.
Qianye currently only has the option of jumping out of the window...
only.
Chino's mind wandered through various reactions to jumping out of the window.
But I didn’t expect that this window couldn’t be broken at all!
There was a dull thud.
Qianye's body straightened up and slid down from the window, and finally lay on the ground again...
"Borrowing your body? Then..."
Chino, who was at the end of his rope, didn't have much time to think.
Seeing that jumping out of the window doesn't work.
Then there is no need for him to get up and try again.
If the man in the cabin in his mind could really help him, that wouldn't be a bad idea.
What are the consequences of losing a bet?
Qianye no longer needs to think about that...
There is no other way at present. If you don't gamble, there is only a dead end.
However.
Just when Qianye was about to agree to the request that he didn't know exactly what it was.
On the street outside the house, there was a sound of piano playing...
The music sucks.
It's so bad that Chino doesn't even have to think about it.
The figure of the lonely piano player suddenly appeared in his memory...
Familiar and unpleasant.
It can often be remembered instantly.
The piano player left a big impression on Qianye...
The sea monkey's movements stopped at this time.
It seemed as if it had encountered something that frightened it. First it stagnated, and finally it retreated into the darkness at an extremely fast speed and disappeared into the dark bookstore without any trace.
Perrin was stunned.
Qianye didn’t know what was going on...
He really wanted to go out and see the homeless player outside and see what kind of guy he was.
Why can the sound of the piano scare the sea monkey like this?
But his head hurt too much.
I can only curl up on the ground and keep hitting my head with my hands...
"This music..."
Peilan walked to the window in confusion and looked out through the glass with the help of the dimly lit flashlight in Qianye's hand.
In the field of vision.
The man playing the piano is packing his things.
He seemed to feel Perrin's gaze, so he raised his head and looked at her with a kind smile on his face...
Imminent danger removed.
There is no need for Peilan to stay here and wait for Qianye to get better.
In her mind, Qianye is now inexplicably holding her head and rolling on the ground strangely. It is also possible that she will suddenly turn into a ghost at a certain moment and then attack her...
Life is precious.
Peilan immediately wanted to leave this damn bookstore.
"Hello."
But just as she was walking towards the door, the figure of the piano player suddenly appeared in front of her and walked in from outside the door without being able to see her fingers.
He was carrying a big bag behind him.
He was also carrying a strange-looking box in his hand...
Presumably it was filled with the materials he used to put together a simple piano.
certainly.
Perrin doesn't pay attention to this right now.
She looked at the performer walking in from the door, and couldn't help but feel a little thump in her heart.
"How could it be... weren't you still downstairs just now?"
Perrin thought to himself.
The weirdness the performer gave her was no less than what Qianye gave her. Now that there was a weirdo in front of her and Qianye in the back, her idea of leaving the bookstore was shattered.
After all, the performer was standing right at the door, blocking the way out...
"Don't be nervous, I mean no harm."
Perhaps sensing Perrin's nervousness, the performer waved his hand to show his side.
Seeing that Peilan didn't seem to believe it.
He then pointed to Qianye lying on the ground: "He has some problems, and I'm here to help him."
"Help?" Perrin didn't know what the man was talking about.
But before she could ask further questions.
The man took out a strange-looking glass bottle from his pocket, which contained some strange green pills.
He poured a few pills into his hand, walked to Qianye's position, squatted down, and handed the pills forward.
"Eat this, your head won't hurt anymore."
he said.
It's just that although Qianye had a splitting headache, how could he take the pill when faced with this guy who couldn't figure it out?
What if this is poison.
Or something weird and harmful.
Then doesn’t he have to be gg?
Seeing that Qianye refused to take it, the man raised his head and swallowed the pills, as if to tell him that the medicine was okay, and then poured a few more pills into his hand and handed them over.
"Thanks, but I don't think I need it."
Chino still refused.
His vigilance is not as simple as believing the other person after eating it...
When the sea monkey disappears.
The cabin in my mind also disappeared.
So although Qianye still has a headache, he can feel that the headache is slowly disappearing.
How could he accept this pill that looks like poison before he doesn't know what identity the performer represents and what his purpose is...
"Okay, you can't die now."
She found that Qianye refused to take the pills he gave her, so the man didn't force her too much.
After he put the pills back into the vial, he began to talk about his purpose.
"My name is Robert, and the owner of this bookstore is my uncle. Not long ago, my uncle told me that something seemed to have escaped from the cage, so I came over to take a look."
"As for that monster...you don't have to be afraid. I'm here. It won't hurt you."
When Peilan heard this, his thoughts were racing: "You mean, you are familiar with this bookstore?"
"It's okay, uncle occasionally invites me over as a guest."
Speaking of which.
Robert seemed to have noticed something was wrong.
After a pause, he suddenly realized what he was doing and walked to the far left side of the room, turning on the lights in the room.
The whole room became much brighter in an instant. Peilan and Qianye, who had been in the dark for a long time, were also stung by the light and could not open their eyes.
"Sorry, after talking so much, I just realized that the lights were not turned on."
Robert said very apologetically.
He glanced at Qianye, who was curled up on the ground, and then at Peilan, who was skeptical about him, and knew that both of them were still wary of him.
Then he whistled.
The "Sea Monkey" who ran away to nowhere just now ran back quickly and sat down next to him obediently.
His face no longer looked as fierce as before, but instead looked as cute as a puppy.
"This is my uncle's pet. His name is Mida. Because he is very irritable towards strangers, he usually keeps it in a cage when his uncle is away. I'm sorry for scaring you just now."
"In fact, after getting familiar with it, it is very well-behaved, more obedient than any other pet..."
Robert stroked the "Sea Monkey"'s head.
The slimy and wrinkled "sea monkey" stained Robert's hands with a disgusting stuff that looked like snot.
Seeing this, Peilan suddenly thought that the thing he had touched on the railing at the stairwell might be this...
After Qianye's headache dissipated a little, he could barely stand up.
Robert also invited them to the hall to chat...
A bookstore with lights on.
It's completely different.
Qianye and Peilan followed him downstairs while wondering about Robert's true identity.
Robert shouldn't have any intention of killing them...
This is what Chino guessed.
Otherwise, if he had any special thoughts, there would be no need for Robert to call the "Sea Monkeys" back, but let them eat them up.
Taking the tired Qianye and Peilan, who was looking around, to the coffee table in the hall, Robert took the first step to bring the "sea monkey" into the cage and locked it up before coming over and sitting across from them.
He took two glasses of water and pushed them in front of them...
The big lock in the library is still broken.
Moreover, several bookcases have collapsed to the ground, and many of the books on them are scattered on the ground. These are the good things Qianye and Peilan did just now.
But Robert didn't seem to mind.
He turned a blind eye to these extremely rude scenes and still looked at the two people with a kind look...
"It's late now, you probably have something to say."
The headache has gone away a lot.
Qianye opened her pale lips and said to Robert.
He just glanced at the water on the table without any intention of taking a sip.
Robert looks like this, there must be something buried in his heart...
"Well, yes." Robert nodded.
He didn't care if Qianye saw his thoughts.
"We met in front of the Aden Tavern that day. I am very grateful for your concern for me. This is the first time since I played..."
"That's not what you're talking about."
Qianye interrupted Robert.
He felt that his mind and body were very tired now, and he didn't have much energy to listen to Robert's detours.
"No, no, no, this is one of them. I really appreciate your concern at that time. After all, when I started playing on the street, no one regarded me as a normal person. They all thought that I had a brain problem and treated me badly.
The music is also extremely disgusting.”
Qianye did not speak immediately.
He didn't know what Robert was planning.
At that time, he actually didn't care much about Robert...
You have to say something forcefully.
That is to say, I put my own experience into it at that time, and then casually said, "It's okay, it will be fine in the future."
He thought it was impossible for Robert to drag him into the hall to chat in the middle of the night because of such a thing...
Otherwise, Robert should have expressed something at that time.
Instead of just saying "thank you" and walking away...
"This is one of them...what about the others?" Qianye paused before asking Robert.
"This is it."
Robert touched his nose and glanced at Perrin quietly.
Although she didn't understand what he meant by looking at Peilan, Qianye understood that what the other party was going to say next would not be a meaningless topic such as gratitude.
"Actually, I want to talk to you. The most important thing is the disease in your brain." Robert took out the green pill bottle and placed it on the table, then pointed to his temple.
"Just now, your head hurt terribly, and then you felt like it was about to explode..."
Robert's words are clear.
Qianye was almost killed by the "Sea Monkey" just now because of the sudden headache.
The envelope mission also clearly stated that Chino was sick.
Let him find the cause of his illness and the solution...
Now that Robert has brought it up, he naturally knows something about it.
only.
When Chino had his first headache.
That was when the rescue mission had just been completed, and the invitation party had not yet entered.
The disease Robert mentioned made Qianye unsure for a moment whether it was the same as his own...
"Well, actually you don't have to worry, I actually have a disease like yours." Robert saw Qianye didn't speak, thinking that the other party was still doubting him.
"This pill was prepared by my uncle for me. It has a very significant effect on treating headaches."
"Headache?" Qianye focused his attention on the small glass bottle.
He feels sick.
Maybe it's not what Robert said...
Otherwise, if a simple bottle of headache medicine can cure it, then when the pain occurs, there will not be so many hallucinations and pain.
There is a saying that goes like this.
The worse you feel about your body, the more complex the illnesses you get...
Qianye thought that Robert might have misunderstood that he had a simple headache.
After all, only you can see those hallucinations...
"When you had a headache, did you see another version of yourself, and then said that you wanted to borrow your body?" Robert did not receive a reply from Qianye and continued to ask.
"If so, then your disease is the same as mine."
"Judging from your situation, if you delay it any longer, you won't be able to recover like you are today, but you will die..."
