Chapter 45: Humans and Demons

Dong Xie followed the gap in the wooden board in front of him and looked inside.

However, it was too dark inside. After all, it was sealed too tightly by wooden boards.

Originally, a small flashlight was a necessary item for every resident to carry out the Scarlet Call, but when they woke up in the hospital, everyone found that their flashlights and mobile phones were missing. Han Lei was the only one carrying a lighter, and he also smoked.

Chang Yong and Li Chong have already cooled down.

He couldn't get in, and he didn't dare to make a sound rashly. Dong Xie wasn't even sure whether the people inside were dead or alive.

"Are they...really dead?"

Behind Dong Xie, Yun Nai showed an eager expression and tone.

He turned around and looked at her extremely anxious expression, and was slightly surprised.

Yun Nai is the one who impressed Dong Xie more recently among the new residents. When new residents enter the apartment, they will burst into tears when they first learn about their tragic fate, and some of them will even cry because they cannot accept it.

For people who have fallen into collapse and even madness in this reality, fortunately, Qin Ziyuan's armed forces were responsible for suppressing it, so there was no riot in the apartment. The residents have always been in peace and did not dare to mess around. But Yun Nai, as a female resident,

She is extremely calm, and can even be said to be a standard Japanese manga sansyou.

In the past, Yun Nai could barely keep calm even when her life was in danger many times, but now she is acting extremely impatient. Thinking about it, the most reasonable explanation is that even Zi Xin was also

Probably because I'm trapped inside.

"It's hard to say. I don't think the two of them will die together." Dong Xie wanted to calm Yun Nai down, otherwise her current mood would be very bad. "It is very common for doors to be blocked by curses in the Scarlet Mission.

This phenomenon generally does not mean that the residents were killed. As long as it does not fall into a dead end trap, it is unlikely that two residents will die at the same time."

Yun Nai pursed her lips and didn't know what she was thinking about before she forced herself to calm down and said, "Then we have to find a way to get in again."

"But... all the doors and windows are blocked, including the second and third floors."

"You have to try, you can't just do nothing."

In fact, Dong Xie had some speculations about the current situation.

The apartment seems to have intentionally divided the existing residents. In this case, there are two possibilities. The first is to create difficulties for the residents, and the second is to reduce risks for the residents. The first possibility is to reduce the number of residents entering the house.

Next, even if the residents get clues inside, they may not be able to find the way out immediately. After all, three cobblers are more powerful than Zhuge Liang. If the cobblers are scattered, it is likely to reduce the possibility of finding the way out. In the second case, it is possible

The house is highly dangerous. If all the residents are let in, it will easily lead to the destruction of the whole group, so just go in two by two. If you are lucky, maybe two of them can come out with important information about how to survive. In the worst case, both of them will be killed.

After death, the door will automatically open, allowing the last two remaining residents to go in and explore.

The Scarlet Letter task is absolutely fair. It is by no means simply to massacre the residents, but to give them the opportunity to complete the Scarlet Letter and finally realize their wishes.

Dong Xie was about to analyze these words with Yun Nai, but she said: "Or... we can't get in now because of the will of the apartment?"

He was a little surprised, Yun Nai's mind was spinning very quickly.

"That's exactly what I thought."

Yun Nai pondered for a while, and after a while, she said: "Well, let's wait outside for a while. No matter what, one of us, Lian Zixin, must survive."

Although Dong Xie didn't know what happened to Lian Zixin and Yun Nai, these two people obviously had a wish that must be realized no matter what, and it was probably the same wish.

"If Lian Zixin dies inside..." Yun Nai glanced at the wooden board, "Then I can never die here."

Dong Xie suddenly understood that what Yun Nai was worried about was not Lian Zixin himself. She wanted Lian Zixin to survive in order to increase the guarantee for her wish to come true.

So what is this wish that makes her so persistent?

"I want to find my daughter." However, as if she could see Dong Xie's doubts, she simply said it directly: "My daughter and Lian Zixin's son were both abducted by human traffickers. To this day, we are all looking for

Can’t reach them.”

This shocked Dong Xie.

Dong Xie clearly remembered that his father, as a documentary director, had gone to other places to film a three-episode documentary on the fight against trafficking. Unfortunately, it was later not broadcast because it was said that the documentary "smeared" local political achievements.

As a result, his father showed him the version he had personally edited. Seeing his parents crying in despair in the documentary left a deep impression on him at a young age.

"Even if I go to hell, I will find my daughter. I must!"

She glanced at the boarded-up window again and said, "If even Zi Xin can survive, there will be greater hope that the wish will come true."

Yun Nai actually really hopes that Lian Zixin can survive. A very important reason is that it would be best if there are two wishes that can be realized. She has been going to the police station over the years and has learned a lot about the evil and cruelty of human traffickers. Not only does the child

They will be sold to mountainous areas, some are even sold to do hard labor in black coal kilns, some are sold abroad to be prostitutes, some have their limbs broken and go begging on the streets, some have their organs harvested and sold, and some have drugs hidden in their bodies for secret transport.

. One after another, countless crazy things refreshed her most vicious speculation about the evil of human nature. She finally discovered that people really can have no bottom line for the sake of profit.

The most terrifying thing is that when she thought that it might happen to her daughter, she became so desperate that she went crazy.

"If there are two wishes, then if our child has a shortcoming or a longing, I think I will go crazy. You can't imagine how inhumane those human traffickers are, and they are evil and worse than animals."

Dong Xie can completely understand Yun Nai's mood. Although he has no children, the pain of losing a child is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The cruelest thing is that many people may never be able to see their children again throughout their lives.

"The pain of losing a child... to me is ten times, a hundred times more terrifying than the threat of those evil spirits."

Yun Nai's face was extremely firm. At that moment, Dong Xie finally understood what "being a mother means being strong". For him who lost his mother at a young age, he couldn't help but feel even more bitter.



"I can understand the pain of losing a child, but it's crazy!"

Even Zixin's hand was holding the parchment in front of him, and his English level was pretty good. Except for some proper nouns, such as Massachusetts, which he didn't recognize, he had basically determined...

"The ancient plague demon?" Hearing Lian Zixin's explanation, Han Lei, who was holding a lighter to illuminate him, was shocked.

All the tragedies on this island stem from a father's obsession to bring back his son?

And this made Lian Zixin feel the same way.

The originally happy family was completely shattered on the day his son was abducted. The past six years have been unimaginable psychological torture for him. His wife, who was suffering from depression, was hit and killed by a car due to mental disorder, and his mother was depressed and depressed.

The cancer recurred and he died. As a result, his father began to drink heavily, leading to alcoholism. However, he could not find the traffickers, did not know where they were, and could not even take revenge on them.

On the parchment, he also saw some annotations. From those annotations, he could be sure that the mastermind behind everything was Xie Tianci, the director of Blackwater Hospital. For three years, his son had not been seen alive or dead.

He had raised his son much longer than Lian Zixin, and his feelings were naturally deeper. However, he was not even sure about his son's life and death. Judging from those comments, Xie Tianci, who had always believed in saving lives and healing the wounded, finally fell into despair.

He was obviously a doctor who helped the world by hanging pots, but he turned into a demon who unleashed the plague with his own hands.

Although he is a human being, he has committed crimes that are no different from those of evil spirits. Even the residents have fallen into a desperate situation.

However, for Dean Xie, Lian Zixin felt more of the hatefulness of the poor man.

If... he was the one who got this parchment, what choice would he make?
