Chapter 228: Death Town (20)

Surprisingly.

Robert actually told Qianye about his illness.

The places described are exactly the same as what Chino experienced...

"How could it be...hasn't this thing been around since it came out of the script about the apartment building?"

Qian Ye was surprised.

How could Robert know this disease when the contents of the two worlds are different?

He straightened his body again.

Watching Robert's attitude change a lot...

From the initial impression of the character in the script on the other party, I now think that the other party may be a character with a big secret.

Small glass bottle of green pills under light.

Looks a little enchanting and beautiful...

Let’s not talk about whether this pill is effective in treating this thing. Just looking at the color makes people very unappetizing.

At first glance, it was just as Qianye thought at first.

Like it's poisonous...

Those incurable things in movies and TV shows look like this.

"Of course, you don't need to be nervous. You just started. It doesn't matter if you have uncle's medicine. I was much more serious than you before."

Robert smiled.

It seemed that he was worried that Chino would be too scared because of this.

"What was your level before?" Qianye asked.

The content of the conversation between the two made Perrin on the side not quite understand.

All she heard was that she had a headache, and that Qianye was going to die...

Suspicious and confused eyes.

Perrin was like a child listening to a story.

However, because the "Sea Monkey" attack finally cast a shadow on her, so while listening to Qianye and Robert talking, she also looked around.

Worried that it will happen if you don't pay attention.

That "sea monkey" jumped out again...

"It was a long time ago..." Robert relaxed his body and leaned back a little on the chair, as if he was lost in memories.

I have to say.

Although the clothes Robert was wearing felt particularly cheap, he was also very sloppy, with the lower half of his face covered in stubble.

But all in all, he has a certain temperament, just like the protagonist.

Just stop there.

It was as if there were several spotlights shining on him, making him look a little different...

Qianye thought.

Maybe Robert had a very fulfilling life before.

For example, he was once a noble or something...

Due to some unforeseen circumstances, Yu Hun became like this.

"I remember when I first got sick, I was seven years old." Robert's thoughts moved forward, to a time that almost only he remembered, imagining the things he had experienced.

"At first, I had a slight headache. My parents thought that I was simply sick, or that it was caused by not sleeping well and being in a poor mental state."

"They took me to many hospitals at that time. During that time, the smell I was most familiar with was the smell of disinfectant..."

"I just took a lot of medicine and had a lot of injections, but it still didn't get better."

"But my headaches are getting more and more serious. It's so severe that every time I have an illness, in the eyes of others, I look like I have epilepsy. I will roll on the ground and twitch on the ground..."

"Without proper treatment, my headaches would just stay with me."

"At that time, the era my parents lived in was also during the war..."

"Most people can't even eat, and many people will even die because of fever."

"Stop talking about treating me for this strange disease."

Speaking of which.

Robert paused for a moment, as if remembering some unbearable memory, and there was a trace of displeasure on his face.

"My parents are actually only a little better than ordinary people. I can't say they are much better... After giving me a short treatment and finding that it didn't have much effect, they all made the same decision.

give up......"

"Headache, everyone will have pain. Maybe it will get better on its own after a while."

"Everyone has this idea."

Robert speaks very fluently.

It was as if this story had been played in his mind so many times that he didn't need to remember it deliberately. Whenever he told it somewhere, the scene would appear in his mind unconsciously.

"My illness is different from ordinary headaches."

"This is something I've known since I was a kid..."

"But my parents gave up, and I was young at that time. What could I do?"

"I can only endure this disease, pretending that nothing happens during normal times, and go play with those children... Even occasionally I will be alone in my room and wonder if I will die from a headache one day."

"Until I was ten years old..."

"My symptoms became more severe."

Robert looked at Qianye.

He pointed to his temple: "It's almost the same as what you have now."

"At that time, besides having a headache, I could also see a vision."

"Every time the disease attacks, a very old and broken prison will appear in front of me... I am afraid, but at the same time there is a very special emotion guiding me."

"It let me in, let me go inside the prison and see what it's like inside..."

"The corridor in the prison is very dark, there is no light inside, and when you feel your way in, you can only smell a rotten smell."

Having said so much.

Robert's throat was already feeling a little uncomfortable, and his voice became a little hoarse.

Seeing that Qianye was not willing to drink the glass of water on the table, he didn't care too much at the time. He directly raised the water and drank it in one sip: "I see that you don't seem to want to drink, so you don't mind, right?"

Well, he didn't say it until he finished drinking.

If you have any concerns, it's too late now.

It's obviously an approach of killing first and then showing off...

"It's okay, you continue."

Chino was not very interested in Robert's approach.

Anyway, he won't touch the glass of water.

The memory story told by the other party is what he needs to hear now...

Even if Robert's speaking style is a bit long-winded...

"Later, after appearing in prison several times, I finally came to the end."

"At the end, there is a prison room that is different from other places because the door to the room is open and there is a person sitting inside..."

"Well, I just said it was an abandoned prison, right?"

"Along the way, other prison rooms were empty, and there was no movement at all...so when I saw this person, I was very surprised."

"And the fact is that it's not just that..."

"As I slowly approached that person, I discovered that he looked exactly like me."

"For a child, only ten years old, after the pain was relieved, I naturally informed my parents about this matter, hoping that they could help me eliminate some fears and give me a sense of security."

"It's just that after they heard what I said, not only did they not comfort me, but they also thought that their son was mentally ill..."

Robert let out a heavy breath.

The expression on his face changed from displeasure to relief, as if he had also figured out the memories of his youth.

"In that era, there were still people who starved to death..."

"There's really not much difference between mental illness and cancer."

"Our place didn't even have a decent general doctor at that time, let alone a psychiatrist..."

"At first, my parents locked me in the house and didn't allow me to run around and play with my friends. I was like a captive animal. They only came in to give me food at meal times every day.

.”

"They are very busy at work...except for delivering meals, they have almost no time to accompany me. They are either running around or talking to people about so-called cooperation every day."

"My daily pleasure at that time was to use the charcoal burned in the house to write and draw on the walls."

"Draw the flowers and plants outside in the memory, draw the grass and trees where I once ran..."

"This life lasted a long time."

"It took so long that my symptoms entered a more serious level again..."

"It's the child in my fantasy who lives in prison with his feet tied by chains. He has told me many times that if I lend him my body, he will fulfill my wish and take me with him.

If you go out like this."

"From being afraid of him at the beginning, to becoming familiar with him in the end."

"I've been shaken..."

Robert smiled again.

It seemed like he was thinking of something funny, and he seemed to be mocking himself.

He licked his lips.

He continued: "In fact, it is not easy for a ten-year-old child to have these thoughts. Calculating, I still persisted for a long time."

"So in the end, when I agreed to his proposal, I didn't feel anything wrong."

"You agreed?"

Chino interjected and asked in a confirming manner.

Although it is still unclear who the guy who looks exactly like him in the fantasy is, Qianye's intuition tells him that if he really agrees to that person's request, something terrible will happen.

The kind of weirdness that exists in the bloody world...

and the sense of danger it brought to Chino.

It's not something that the weirdos in the horror world can provide.

Taken for granted.

Accepting a nonsensical request such as "borrowing your body" is naturally full of dangers.

Hear what Chino said.

Robert nodded slightly: "Yes, I really agreed."

"Then what?" Qianye asked.

"Then...I lost consciousness for a period of time. When I woke up, it was already a month later."

"During the period when I was unconscious, my life changed dramatically."

"My parents are dead..."

"They died at home, with a knife at their necks, lying upright in the living room."

"The corpse already stinks, and there are maggots crawling on it."

"When I regained consciousness and opened the door that had been closed to me for a long time, I was so scared that I cried when I saw this scene."

"In addition, there was a man standing next to the two bodies..."

"He is my uncle now."

"At first I thought he had killed my parents, and the look in his eyes was full of fear."

"He took me away and took me to a place similar to a basement, where he fed me. Then every time I had a headache, he would stand by and observe me carefully and said he would treat me."

"At that time, I was always wary of him and wanted to escape from that place..."

"Until later."

"The man who looked the same as me in prison found me again and asked me to lend him my body and he would help me fulfill my wish to escape."

"I borrowed it and also hurt my uncle..."

"When I woke up the second time, I found myself stabbing my uncle with a sharp knife. He struggled to hold my hand, and the sharp knife was only a few centimeters away from his head."

"Of course I am afraid, but I am even more afraid of killing people..."

"When I woke up, I threw away the sharp knife, and my uncle held me in his arms to comfort me. At the same time, he also told me that I was the one who killed my parents at that time."

When Robert talked about killing his parents.

His mood didn't seem to fluctuate at all.

It seemed like it was a trivial matter of great importance, not worth mentioning at all.

It seems that that incident has passed a long time ago, and for him now, he already feels relieved...

And Chino listened to the story.

I thought about my act of killing people in the tavern yesterday.

He was also completely unconscious, and only later did he realize what he had done when he regained consciousness.

It's just a little different from Robert.

It’s just that no one asked him to borrow his body at first, but it changed like this when he woke up the night before yesterday...

Of course Robert didn't know what Qianye was thinking.

He is still telling his story:

"Uncle didn't blame me. He said I was sick and that's why I did such a thing. He said he would cure me..."

"In the end, when my illness became uncontrollable and that person could use my body freely without my consent, I asked my uncle to tie me up and lock me in a room to avoid hurting him.

"

"Until the development of a specific drug is successful, I can untie those ropes and live like a normal person..."

Robert picked up the small medicine bottle on the table.

His eyes were full of hope.

Today he can breathe freely outside with peace of mind, relying on this bottle of medicine to control the disease...

"Mr. Qianye, that guy is a devil. Every time he comes to you, he will make all kinds of tempting conditions, usually what you need and expect at that time, and in the end you have to agree.

...If you really agree to lend your body to him, it will cause many unnecessary tragedies, and he may even kill you yourself."

"I hope you understand what I mean..."

The story is over.

Robert told Qianye all the lengthy details and some unnecessary plot points.

On the surface, he seems to be acting from a good person's perspective and simply has Chino's best interests at heart.

After all, after experiencing pain.

He may not want to see anyone else experiencing the same pain as himself...

only.

From Chino's perspective.

Even though Robert seemed to be acting very well and told everything he knew, Qianye could still feel that the other party seemed to be lying to him.

Maybe...

Robert was hiding something on purpose.

"So you mean...this bottle of medicine can solve my current problem?" Qianye's eyes stayed on the pill bottle for a moment, then looked at Robert, "Honestly, I'm curious about who your uncle is.

Such a person."

Robert smiled politely and replied: "Uncle is just a powerful ordinary person. He owns this bookstore. If you have time tomorrow morning, you can come here to meet him."

"Thank you." Qianye nodded.

I also made up my mind.

There is no truth to the fact that Robert lied to him.

after all......

He never told Robert his name from beginning to end, but the other party just called him Mr. Qianye...
