Chapter Twenty-Three: The Beginning
"I'm a professional clown."
The man with a tired face sat down on the sofa at Qin Ran's suggestion, and then began to speak.
"I've brought laughter to a lot of people, but I can't laugh myself anyway."
"They said I had depression."
"Isn't it ridiculous that a clown with depression has it?"
As he spoke, the man with a tired face looked at Qin Ran.
There was not the slightest ridicule in his indifferent expression, which made the tired man breathe a sigh of relief, he was very worried just now, like the few psychiatrists he had met before, he would secretly laugh after hearing his description—as a clown, it was too easy for him to distinguish such ridicule.
It just takes a look.
Fortunately......
No.
"My wife did a lot of hard work to make me happy."
"Tell me stories, jokes, and play clowns to make me laugh."
"But, to no avail."
"So she decided to take me on a trip to relax."
"I had almost forgotten the connection, but on the day of the trip, I suddenly felt a little happy."
"That's right!"
"Just happy!"
"I know I can feel the corners of my mouth turning up, but ...... The accident happened, and a speeding van crashed into the car we were riding. ”
"I survived."
"My wife is dead."
The man's eyes grew redder and redder, and he covered his face, a bitter wail coming out of his throat.
Qin Ran didn't interrupt the other party, his eyes looked quietly behind the other party, as if he was letting the other party vent his emotions.
After about ten seconds, the other party's emotions calmed down.
"Then, not only could I not laugh, but I couldn't sleep."
"My wife is all in my head."
"As soon as I close my eyes, I feel like I can see her."
"And I can still seem to hear her saying something to me."
As he spoke, the tired man closed his eyes as if his wife were beside him.
In fact......
That's it.
In Qin Ran's field of vision, a figure with half of his body shattered, including his head, stood beside the man, and when the other party walked in, this figure followed the other party, with a look of resentment and resentment, and kept reaching out to grab the man's throat, but every time it would pass through the man's body.
And this result made the figure more and more angry, and it kept letting out howls that ordinary people couldn't hear.
Then, this figure spotted Qin Ran's gaze.
Can you see me?
Why can you see me?
Why can't he see me?
Why did I die?
Not him?!
Why?!
Why don't you die!
There was a flash of doubt in the figure's eyes, and only a real resentment remained.
The temperature in the room, with such resentment, began to gradually drop, and the man with a tired face and closed eyes said as if unconsciously, and there was a trace of anger in his mouth.
And this resentful figure had already pounced on Qin Ran.
It kept howling.
"Die!"
"Die!"
"Die!"
The undead's aversion to the living is instinctive.
What's more, the undead in front of him are no longer ordinary wandering spirits.
Although it is not yet at the level of an evil spirit, it is close to a fierce spirit that can change the temperature, and it is only a matter of time before the other party becomes a fierce spirit that can truly kill.
So......
It died again.
Rushed in front of Qin Ran, was swallowed by an invisible mouth, and disappeared in an instant.
The temperature in the room returned to normal.
The man, who was still telling with his eyes closed, continued.
"I can still feel her right next to me."
"She's still so beautiful and kind."
"She gently touched my neck and cheek, and whispered about how we fell in love back then."
The man's voice became quieter and quieter, his closed eyes opened slightly, he looked around with a puzzled face, raised his hand and touched his surroundings, as if looking for something.
"Why, why is she gone?"
"She's still here!"
"Say!"
"Did you hide her?"
"Impossible!"
"I hid her!"
"I'm the only one who knows where she is!"
"You don't know!"
"You don't know!"
The man held his head, curled up, and shouted in panic.
Hahaha!
There was a burst of laughter.
"Don't laugh!"
"Don't laugh!"
"Why are you laughing?"
"I'm not ridiculous!"
"I must not be ridiculous!"
When the curled man heard the laughter, his whole body was even more frightened, he was already shrunk in the sofa, but he still kept kicking his legs and shrunk back, as if he wanted to merge himself with the sofa.
Helpless, pitiful.
Anyone who sees each other like this will involuntarily feel pity.
But Qin Ran was sitting opposite, looking at each other indifferently.
It lasted a minute.
The man stopped.
He stretched his curled up.
He did it, his legs on the carpet, his hands on his knees, his head half-bowed, his hair hiding most of his face in shadow, only his eyes shining strangely from between his hair.
Crazy and strange eyes stared at Qin Ran.
Qin Ran, who looked at each other, had no fluctuations in his heart.
"Why don't you laugh?"
The other party asked.
"Why am I laughing?"
Qin Ran asked rhetorically.
"Because of my performance!"
"Isn't my performance funny?"
"A clown who has failed in his career, designed by his greedy wife, wants to cause a car accident in exchange for a large amount of insurance money, but as a result, there is a little accident and he dies in a car accident."
"Isn't that funny?"
The other party questioned Qin Ran, and his voice was raised a point.
"It's not funny."
Qin Ran shook his head with certainty.
"You're taking pity on that wife?"
"I thought you were different, but as a result, you were just as vulgar?"
The other party looked at Qin Ran in amazement and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Wife?"
"Chess pieces."
"And don't you have your next goal?"
"You just kept staring into the nurse's gaze, and that's the gaze of the prey."
Qin Ran
"yes!"
"That wife is in the past tense!"
"I have a new goal!"
"A good target!"
"Simple, passionate, kind, I like this kind of goal the most!"
"She'll be my next target."
"I'm going to crush her bones little by little and make her wail in pain, but alas...... You can't hear me! I'd love to hear you, but for the sake of my more enjoyable hunting, I'd better ask you to die! ”
The man's voice, whose face was obscured by the shadow of his hair, became excited and frenzied.
"Before I die, I'll say thank you to you."
"You're more qualified than any psychiatrist I've ever met before."
"You like this will be my next appearance."
"Psychiatrist, not bad, right?"
A dagger appeared in the other man's hand, and then he was ready to stand up.
However, the other party suddenly found that he could not perceive his legs.
The leg did not disappear.
It's still attached to his body.
It's just that......
All the bones were shattered.
Silently, all the bones in his legs were shattered.
And, very fast.
It's almost to the point where he's only now reacting.
"Ahhh
In the miserable roar, the other party fell to the ground, and the dagger in his hand did not know where to throw it.
"The wail of pain, I hear."
"But it's so ugly."
Qin Ran said lightly and slowly walked towards the other party.
"Don't come here!"
Looking at Qin Ran, who was approaching, the other party shouted loudly, his voice full of horror.
The other party didn't understand why a pleasant hunt had become the way it was.
It's just a helpless psychiatrist!
In his plan, everything is at hand!
But everything that appeared now deviated from his plan!
What's wrong?
The man who couldn't move his legs, with his hands on the ground, crawled towards the window in the room, and his strong arms made the other party come to the window in two clicks.
The other party, who was crawling by the window, turned his head to look at Qin Ran who was standing in the middle of the house.
It was as if he wanted to imprint all of this person's face in his heart.
"Do you think you've won?"
"I'll be back......"
Bang!
The sound of gunfire interrupted the other party's words, and the head of the man holding the window shattered like a watermelon, and his brain splattered in all directions.
Ten seconds later, Grady, armed with a gun, kicked open the office door.
The sheriff looked around the room at gunpoint before heading straight at the man with his head shattered.
When she saw the other party's abnormal legs, the female sheriff was stunned.
Subconsciously, she turned her head to look at Qin Ran.
"You did it?"
The sheriff asked.
"Hmm."
Qin Ran nodded, there were only two people in the room, he and the other party, there was no way to hide it, let alone lie.
"Well done!"
"A perfect justifiable defense."
The female sheriff gave Qin Ran a thumbs up.
Qin Ran was stunned.
He originally thought that the female sheriff would be entangled in this matter, but he didn't expect the other party to give such an answer.
"Some people are always able to use some empty opportunities to create a chance for themselves to escape the law."
"He's one of them."
"He used a so-called 'mental disorder' to convince the jury that he killed the girl unconscious."
"Then, after six months in a psychiatric hospital, he came out."
"He's looking for new prey."
"I had suggested focusing on him, but some bastards thought it was a waste of police power."
The sheriff explained.
And at this time, two of the female sheriff's subordinates also rushed in.
Looking at the corpse on the ground, the two men looked at the female sheriff.
"Call home."
The sheriff said.
The two men immediately sprang into action.
Then, when only Qin Ran and the female sheriff were left in this room again, the female sheriff began to look at Qin Ran with scrutinizing eyes again.
"You've learned martial arts?"
The sheriff asked.
"Can't a psychiatrist learn martial arts?"
Qin Ran asked rhetorically.
"But there aren't many who can achieve a level of attainment."
The sheriff emphasized.
"Not for nothing, is it?"
With that, Qin Ran walked out.
He was not interested in talking to the other party any further.
A person like a female sheriff is the same thing, and it is a fact that Qin Ran helped her catch the murderer, and she will be grateful, but this does not make her not to doubt Qin Ran.
Qin Ran had encountered such a stubborn person more than once.
Some ended up becoming his friends.
Others are always passers-by.
And the female sheriff?
It was obviously classified as the latter by Qin Ran.
Because, he can't accept the hysteria and stubbornness of the opposite sex, in Qin Ran's opinion, the other party with these two points is simply synonymous with entanglement.
Moreover, he cared more about his little nurse than the other party's inquiry.
Although this little nurse is only a person hired by his status, the other party is doing very well, and after going to work this morning, he began to take the initiative to help him clean up the messy room.
A diligent person is easy to gain the favor of others.
Qin Ran is no exception.
Especially on the premise that the other side does not have any hostility.
If it's a favor, Qin Ran will still help.
Not to mention......
It was because of him.
Amy stood on the first floor in some trepidation, she heard the gunshot, and she didn't know what was going on, she was worried about her boss.
My boss has been so unlucky lately.
Yesterday someone broke through the empty door, and today another madman came to the door.
From the conversation between the two police officers just now, Amy already knew who the madman was.
You know, a while ago, this matter was in a uproar.
The whole Moon City was talking about it.
Some people think that the madman is really crazy, otherwise how could he do such a terrible thing, while others think that the madman is just pretending to be crazy and stupid, in order to escape the punishment of the law.
Amy has a bit of faith in both sides of the argument and is the kind of person who swings.
But after today's incident, the little nurse immediately became the latter, unswervingly believing that the other party was pretending to be crazy and stupid.
"I hope Doctor 2567 is okay."
The little nurse prayed in a low voice.
Then, she suddenly felt a chill in the game.
Subconsciously, the little nurse looked at the air conditioner.
She thought it was because the air conditioner was turned on too low, but at the moment she turned her head, a figure slowly emerged in the intersection of her shadow and the wall.
Brightly colored clothes, makeup, wigs.
The figure of a clown appeared behind the little nurse.
But unlike the smiling clown in people's memories, this clown is expressionless even if he has colorful makeup.
It raised its palm with murderous intent.
It is to fulfill the wish of life.
Of course, this is the first one.
There are two more upstairs.
There are countless more on the streets.
It's all its wishes.
Looking at the air conditioner with a normal temperature, the little nurse twisted her neck uneasily, as if she sensed something, and just when the little nurse was at a loss, footsteps came from upstairs.
Step, step!
Qin Ran walked down from the second floor.
"Doctor, are you alright?"
The moment the little nurse saw Qin Ran, the uneasiness in her heart disappeared, and she asked with concern.
"It's fine."
"Can you help me get some takeout?"
Qin Ran smiled and said.
"Takeout is not healthy."
The little nurse said this, but she didn't disobey Qin Ran's order, and walked towards the bar, the serious clown followed behind the little nurse, ready to continue to fulfill her wish.
However, Qin Ran stood in front of him as soon as he took a step.
Can he see me?
That's great!
That's how you can have pleasure!
The serious clown raised his palm with murderous intent, changing the target, and it was ready to kill the guy in front of it first.
Facing the palm that was getting closer and closer, Qin Ran raised the index finger of his right hand and drew a smile from the left side to the right side of his cheek, and said softly, "Why are you so serious?" ”
The stern clown's palm stopped in mid-air, then vanished.
Only a slight chewing sound remains.
And......
A series of vague, peeping eyes.
