Dai Xiyan recorded everything Xia Li said on the paper in front of her.
The amount of information is a bit too huge.
"The characters in the comics...?"
She re-read the comic "The Kingdom of Evil" from the first chapter as quickly as possible.
Click on the first episode, and what appears on the first page is a flag. On the flag is an iron cross, and in the center of the iron cross is a bald eagle.
Below the flag is a white frame with a narration inside: "As a superpower, the United States of Chia has ranked first in the world in crime rate for many years. Although the United States of Chia still retains the death penalty system, it has not actually executed it for many years.
Death penalty. To this end, death penalty advocates and abolitionists have launched heated discussions in the face of the increasingly serious and rising violent crimes in the country."
…
After looking at it for an hour, she rubbed her eyes.
"The characters in the comics...? This is simply the setting of an anti-travel novel. Only Zhu Yuyan knows this secret?"
She quickly started thinking about a question.
How did Xia Li travel to the real world? Will "The Kingdom of Evil" become a bloody mission in the future?
"The possibility is high."
When Dai Xiyan read this comic, he had a very strange feeling.
That feeling made her feel uncomfortable.
In comics, evil spirits are rarely depicted head-on, but certain drawing methods and brushstrokes made her feel a strong sense of discomfort.
"This comic shouldn't exist in my world." Dai Xiyan could tell from online searches that this comic has become very famous after being adapted into animation. If it existed, she would have heard of it.
Then, she clicked on a new chapter of the comic.
In this episode, Xia Li appears again.
No matter how you look at it, she is exactly the same as the real Xia Li.
He entered the terrifying Walled City of Baator alone.
Bato Walled City is the most famous slum in the United States of Chia. It can be said to be a breeding ground for countless crimes. Here, countless illegal buildings have formed an airtight and almost dark area, which is already a true "Kingdom of Evil Spirits".
And within the Walled City of Bator, there are many places that have now become pure no-man’s land.
These uninhabited areas can be said to be terrifying places haunted by evil spirits.
In the comic, Xia Li is walking along an alley. This alley is extremely narrow, less than one meter, and is flanked by two tall buildings on both sides.
Ninety-nine percent of the buildings in Bato Walled City are extremely abnormal. Many houses do not have normal doors and windows outside, and most places are backed by sunlight, and there are damp and cold areas everywhere.
At this moment, Xia Li in the comics stopped.
He turned around.
Then, in the next storyboard of the comic, a strange black shadow is projected on the ground behind him.
When she turned to the next page, she switched to the male protagonist's perspective, so she returned to the previous page.
Looking at the black shadow, Dai Xiyan felt an even stronger sense of discomfort for some reason.
She started to enlarge the picture and looked at the black shadow bit by bit.
If it weren't for the fact that this was an absolutely safe apartment, she wouldn't have dared to do this.
But after a long time, looking at the black shadow, she looked to the side, the sketch left by Li Yihe.
She took the sketch paper over, then put a note on the drawer, wrote "pens for drawing", and took out the pen from inside.
Then, Dai Xiyan quickly started drawing on the back of the sketch paper.
About half an hour later.
She drew a strange, twisted humanoid black silhouette on it.
After drawing the outline of this human-shaped black shadow, Dai Xiyan woke up as if from a dream.
"what did I do?"
This is an absolutely safe apartment!
But just now, she seemed to be possessed!
Dai Xiyan knew very well that she had absolutely no artistic skills. But now...
At this moment, she looked at the painting in front of her again.
Looking at the twisted silhouette of the human figure, she walked to the balcony as if her body was being driven.
The balcony no longer belongs to the interior of the apartment.
Holding the piece of paper, Dai Xiyan's pupils began to become extremely strange. Gradually...the black pupils of both eyes gradually began to shrink, turning into two black dots about the size of rice grains.
…
late at night.
Xia Li sat alone on a bench.
This is somewhere in the downtown business district of K.
He still remembered that when he saw the twisted black shadow, he felt like he was possessed.
His memories of that time were still very vague to this day.
In the past, Baator Walled City has always been a concentrated area for various supernatural legends in the United States of Chia.
Many people believe that demons are real in the world.
However, if you come into contact with the devil, you will eventually lose your soul.
But at that time, did the demon he saw... really see through his desires and send him to this world from this comic?
For Xia Li, what he was most worried about was whether he had made any contract with the devil unconsciously?
In the comics, he only appears in very few scenes, and is at most the fourth male lead. He is also a miserable supporting character who is directly put on a forgiveness hat by the protagonist. Why is he the only one who comes to the real world?
"At that time, behind Qiao Chuyi..."
He will never forget the horrific scene he saw at that book signing.
If not, his original plan was to let Qiao Chuyi modify the plot of the comics no matter what method he used, and at least let his parents and relatives come back to life in the comics. In the end, for Qiao Chuyi, it was nothing more than
To spend some ink, for Xia Li, those who died at the Red Wedding were not some paper figures, but all his relatives!
"If I can complete ten times of blood words, I can make a wish on the apartment and let Qiao Chuyi modify the plot of the comic, or try to see if I can resurrect them? Although making a wish cannot resurrect the dead, they are just comic characters.
Resurrection is just a matter of drawing a few pictures, isn't it? Moreover, it must be through wishes to ensure that they can survive forever."
For this reason, he has made preparations that he will never be able to return to the United States of Chia.
This is his only wish. For this wish, he did not hesitate to enter this apartment to perform the Scary Word mission again and again. Moreover, he hopes to complete this Scary Word mission as soon as possible, because the serialization of "The Kingdom of Evil" has come to an end.
.
He was not sure, once Qiao Chuyi drew the final chapter of this comic, whether the comic world would be completely separated from reality, and whether continuing to draw would not have an impact on it?
He has been sitting alone on this bench for a long time.
"I must complete ten times of blood words as soon as possible, must be as soon as possible!"
Just then, the phone rang.
He picked up his cell phone and saw that the caller was Zhu Yuyan.
He answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"I want to talk to you about "The Kingdom of Evil Spirits", Xia Li. Where are you now?"
About forty minutes later, Dai Xiyan and Xia Li met in a nearby cafe.
After the two sat down, they faced each other, but for a while, neither of them spoke.
The silence lasted for about ten seconds before Xia Li said: "Maybe I have caused you a little trouble... But, you are the only one who knows my true identity, so I can only choose to confide in you."
"I understand." Dai Xiyan replied.
"I have always lived too rationally and soberly." Xia Li smiled bitterly: "In the end, I didn't even realize that the person I married had no feelings for me at all. My parents, who are they?
It was just a character sketched on paper, and it didn't even appear many times in the comics, but I clearly remember everything that happened from childhood to adulthood..."
For Xia Li, who has always lived a very rational life, his biggest pain at this time is that he believes that the root cause of the Red Wedding is that he did not truly see the woman Shen Weishu. He did not recognize that this woman was so obsessed with the abolition of the death penalty.
To the point where she even fell in love with the death row inmate she interviewed.
However, is this tragic story like a joke just a pure story?
Have they really lived?
"You are real."
However, Dai Xiyan responded like this.
"The demon that exists in the comics can even penetrate the power of the curse into the apartment."
Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Xia Li's reply, Dai Xiyan said such a sentence.
Suddenly, the lights in the cafe quickly went out!
Then, Xia Li only saw that Dai Xiyan sitting in front of him turned into a twisted black shadow!
