Chapter 147: Escape from the Asylum (6)
[Subtitle: Real and Unreal]
Gu Qi never thought that there would be such a day: a beautiful little girl came out of the door, took his hand, and called him Dad.
And this little girl is known to him, and in his cognition, she is an intelligent creature called the forbidden woman, who lives in the sea, can control her hair, and has strength and explosiveness that humans cannot match.
But Zeng Xue in front of herβno matter what her name isβhas only a pair of cool, sticky hands reminiscent of strawberry-flavored ice cream.
The child is Zeng Xue, what about the wife?
Gu Qi looked up into the room and sighed.
The woman standing in the living room was beautiful, with long shiny black hair and a sweet smile, just like he had when he first met her in the classroom.
But aren't they sisters? Gu Qi frowned.
Zeng Yu is more beautiful, no longer childish in school, but there is still a trace of naughtiness in her eyes, just like when she told Xu Peirong that Gu Qi was her boyfriend.
"Report to sister-in-law, my mission is complete, see you another day." Cui Hua waved his hand at Zeng Yu and was about to leave.
"Stay and eat, I'm done, where are you in a hurry?" Zeng Yu walked to the door, wearing slippers on his feet.
"No, I still have to go back to the bureau, I worked overtime tonight, I didn't bring out my bag or anything, I can still eat public money when I go back, don't worry about it." Cui Hua and Zeng Yu seemed to be very familiar with each other, and left with a wave of their hands.
"Come and play another day." Zeng Yu leaned out half of his body and shouted in the direction Cui Hua left.
"Oh!" There was an answer from the other side of the stairs.
Zeng Yu turned his head to look at Gu Qi and said, "What's the matter?" Before I could come in, the door was open for a while and mosquitoes came in. β
After saying that, she turned around and returned to the house, Zeng Xue also let go of Gu Qi's hand and pushed Zeng Yu's ass inside.
Gu Qi walked in, closed the door, and saw a pair of slippers behind the door, which were different from Zeng Yu's pairs. The size is just right for him to wear.
This completely unfamiliar place is his home, in the true sense of the word, home with a wife and children, not just a concrete cave to live in.
"Wash your hands, I made your favorite mint beef." Zeng Yu's voice came from a room, which was supposed to be the kitchen.
Gu Qi walked into the living room and saw a fat cat lying on the sofa, judging from the color of his coat, it was Miao Yi, who glanced at Gu Qi with his eyes half-closed. Lick the tip of your nose and continue to recuperate in a daze.
Squatting in front of it, Gu Qi patted its head and whispered, "If you can speak, remember to remind me that this is an illusion." β
Miao Yi's throat gurgled, as if complaining that Gu Qi hadn't scratched it properly.
With a sigh, Gu Qi got up and walked inside, found the bathroom, and saw his appearance in the mirror on the sink.
It turned out that it was me ten years later. There is not much change, there is a little more vicissitudes, the complexion is a little darker, and the head is wrapped in gauze. There were a few strands of stubborn hair sticking out from the gaps in the gauze, looking a little embarrassed.
After washing my hands, I washed my face with water, and the water here did not smell strong chlorine. Clean and cool, Gu Qi felt refreshed and returned to the living room to sit down. took out a cigarette and held it, suddenly remembered Zeng Xue, and put the cigarette back again.
This world is more real, although the relationship between Zeng Yu and Zeng Xue has changed, but there is no sense of disobedience, they look alike, they can be mother and daughter, or sisters.
If he could, Gu Qi would have preferred that Kenji Sakura would have jumped out of the kitchen wearing an apron, saying "Welcome back", and then picked up Miao Yi on the coffee table and spun around, so that he could always remind him that this was a magic mirror.
Well, the sense of disobedience still doesn't seem to be enough.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Two illusions, why two illusions?" Gu Qi sat on the sofa and thought.
Is it because the illusion of the madhouse can't trap me, and then I changed to Anming City?
If that's the case, just use Anming City from the beginning, wouldn't this illusion created by Gu Qi himself? Compared to the asylum and the identity of a foreigner, this place is obviously much more reasonable.
Or is it because the madhouse is just a foreshadowing for Anming City?
There is unpalatable water, cold wards, unfamiliar environments, hostile caregivers, non-hostile but must beware of madmen...... Uncomfortable, dangerous.
And there is clean water, warm sunshine, a familiar environment, a warm home, a beautiful wife, a lovely daughter, a colleague you can trust, and a job that suits you...... Comfortable and safe.
Suddenly from a dangerous place to a safe place, anyone will relax, and as soon as the mental defense is removed, the enemy will have an opportunity to take advantage of it, and the attack will come from the inside - from the inside of the brain.
In this way, the tattoo of the word "illusion" also makes sense, the tattoo is a kind of implication, it exists when it exists in the madhouse, and disappears when it comes to Anming City, implying that the madhouse is a fantasy, and this is the real one.
But the madhouse is also a hint to Gu Qi, suggesting that this place may also be an illusion, and whether the other party's hand is clever or clumsy, we have to wait for the test of time.
But time is also Gu Qi's enemy, it is difficult for him to integrate into the madhouse, but he can easily integrate into this place, and the longer he stays, the more difficult it is to distinguish between fantasy and reality.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"What are you doing?" Zeng Yu came out of the kitchen with two bowls and put them on the coffee table.
In the large bowl is mint beef, which is fragrant, and in the middle bowl is fried pea tips with tempeh, which is hooked through the thick and crystal clear.
A few minutes later, Gu Qi sat on the sofa, holding a large bowl with fragrant rice in the bowl, next to him was a beautiful woman cooking for herself, and a cute girl was sitting on the small bench opposite the coffee table, eating obediently, and the chopsticks were already very skillful.
"You don't have to go to work, I'll take Xiaoxue to school." While eating, Zeng Yu said.
Gu Qi stopped his chopsticks and asked, "Learn piano from half past nine to half past eleven in the morning on Saturday, and learn English from two to four in the afternoon?" β
"You remember." Zeng Yu said with a smile, looking very happy.
"When you mention it, you can remember a little bit." Gu Qi ate mint beef and remembered the small shop that no one patronized.
"The doctor said, don't rush to get back your previous memories, the memories will come back slowly, the more anxious you are, the slower the recovery, if the brain can't bear it, the old disease will recur, and you will forget everything." Zeng Yu sighed softly.
Gu Qi nodded.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
At ten o'clock in the evening, after Zeng Xue fell asleep, Gu Qi, Zeng Yu and Miao Yi were left in the living room.
The atmosphere was a little dreary.
Gu Qi was smoking, and Miao Yi was lying on his back beside his lap, sleeping very sweetly.
After watching TV for a while, Zeng Yu suddenly reached over and shook Gu Qi's hand, and asked, "What else do you want to know?" Don't think about it, I tell you. β
Gu Qi jumped as if he had been electrocuted, glanced at the hand that was being held, his body tensed, he swallowed his saliva, and asked, "Why did I give the cat a human name?" β
Zeng Yuleng paused for a moment and laughed: "That's the name of one of your uncles, when you were young, he used to take you to play, your favorite person, who died in a fire a few years ago, Miao Yi is his cat, you came back with it, and called it Miao Yi." β
Very reasonable, Gu Qi nodded, and asked again, "We used to be classmates?" Second class? β
"Yes, we met in high school, although we didn't get together in college, but in a city, so we haven't been separated, after all, we got married not long after, at that time, you said, our jobs have been stable, and the time to fall in love is longer than the Anti-Japanese War, so I just got married, I didn't understand anything at that time, I agreed in a daze, I fell for you, you still owe me a marriage proposal, I haven't forgotten."
Gu Qi nodded again: "What about Xu Peirong?" β
"She works for a foreign company, and you have a ...... with her Haven't seen each other in two months? Ever since you had a fight, but when you were in a coma in the hospital, she came to see you and told me to keep it a secret, and I said you should be together too, right? What an awkwardness. Zeng Yu said with a smile.
"Quarrel? Why? Gu Qi asked curiously, in his memory, he and Xu Peirong had never quarreled.
"Because of the boyfriend she was looking for, you said that guy didn't look like a good person, and she was angry." Zeng Yu covered his mouth and laughed, that fight must have been very interesting.
"Not like a good guy?" When Gu Qi heard this, he suddenly felt a little happy.
He doesn't say anything that is too subjective.
Ah Jing once told him that before really understanding a person, he can indeed only judge the other party by appearance, and it is the instinct of animals to examine appearance, when encountering creatures that have never been seen, no matter what animal can only predict danger through appearance and smell, there is nothing wrong with judging people by appearance, what is wrong is only judging people by appearance, only believing in the first impression, to define a certain person, first to understand, and then to judge.
It's a pity that in today's increasingly impatient human beings, there are very few people who are willing to understand other people.
Therefore, Gu Qi never said subjective words, especially to other people, because he was not sure of the definition of the word "understand".
Therefore, Gu Qi is very happy, he is just playing a policeman named Gu Qi, not the real Gu Qi, this kind of difference can remind him from time to time that he is in a fantasy world now.
"Yes, a man of more than 1.9 meters, as strong as a cow, with a shaved head and sunglasses, isn't that the bad guy in the blockbuster of the United States that image, you are not wrong." Zeng Yu was still smiling.
"Zhang Zhenyu?" Gu Qi was completely stunned this time, he originally thought it was Zhang Shun.
"yes." Zeng Yu said and yawned: "I'm sleepy, I'll take a shower, you don't watch TV, huh?" β
"Oh." Gu Qi nodded, feeling Zeng Yu squeeze his hand, but he couldn't react to what it meant.
He didn't notice that he wasn't looking for a way out of the illusion, but was struggling, hoping not to get lost in the illusion, like a fish caught in a net.
This habit was cultivated in an insane asylum-
