Chapter 51: Alice's Hell (22) - Mental Damage Hidden Away
The doll's face is blurred, which is a difficult sensation to describe, similar to the eyes seeing, but the brain can't process the information.
Han Xinyi felt that she was locked by a gaze, and her cold hair stood up uncontrollably, and then, in the empty open-air exhibition hall, a song like a tribute floated out of the doll's mouth, echoing in her ears with a little ethereal.
"Lalala...... Lala...... Lala~"
The language it uses is obscure, as if this doll is singing the praises of some kind of taboo, I don't know if it is an illusion, Han Xinyi faintly heard the incomprehensible text, as if with a Chinese swear word or two.
…… I guess it's an illusion.
She frowned, and covered her ears unreflexively - obviously, Huai had no intention of cooperating at all, and people were just like her, fighting the idea of completing hostile missions and getting rewards!
No wonder the other party was not confused by her hints, if it was originally malicious, then the effect of spiritual hints would of course be greatly reduced.
Han Xinyi's smile weakened, and she began to be vigilant, looking around.
The other party deliberately lured her to this position...... Looking around from here, there are broken stone remains everywhere, paved on the ground, rolling down to the still intact base of the stone statue, like the epitome of decay and prosperity.
But it wasn't much different from the rest of the place, and she couldn't see anywhere around her for an ambush that threatened her.
Then the only possibility is this singing doll. This doll is obviously a sacrifice with a strange purpose, she can't listen to the song rashly, in case the doll's ability is control, then she will be in danger if she loses control of her body.
So, she covered her ears with her hands, blocked out most of the volume, and stomped on the doll, trying to smash it.
- Of course, the sacrifice is not so easy to destroy, but physical destruction can effectively prevent the use of this sacrifice in the current deduction.
For example, Yu Xing's portable candlestick [Dark Candle Tears], if someone dismantles the base, there is no place to insert the candle, and naturally both abilities cannot be used, and it can only be restored after exiting the deduction.
Just when Han Xinyi's shoes were about to crush on the doll, a sound of breaking wind came, she looked up consciously, and saw a sharp stone the size of a fist smashing towards her head, she had to give up the idea of stepping on the doll, and threw herself to the side to avoid the sneak attack.
In this way, in order to maintain balance and range of movement, her hand naturally left her ear.
Seeing this, the doll sang a lot louder, singing angrily at the woman who almost stepped on herself, singing and singing as if she was self-absorbed, Han Xinyi felt irritable, and realized that the purpose of singing should be somewhat similar to her ability, which can affect the spirit.
The singing is not unpleasant, on the contrary, if you calm down and appreciate it, you can even experience a strange beauty in it, but - now she has only infinite disgust in her heart, and she finds that whether she covers her ears or not now, the song is like a maggot attached to the bone, and it keeps drilling into her head all the time!
"Dah."
After a slight sound, another big stone struck, this time Han Xinyi saw the direction of the stone clearly, endured the discomfort in her brain and sneered, after avoiding the stone, she kicked the doll away, and rushed towards the person who threw the stone.
"Lalala~Lala~"
The blonde doll, dressed in a delicate little black dress, crossed a parabola in the air, and then fell to the ground with a thud, lying on its back, singing vigorously, one moment it seemed to be dyed with a smile, and the next moment, it was crying in its tone, which can be called capricious.
It seems to ...... Angry.
Han Xinyi was in such a singing voice that she suddenly felt that her mind was dull for a moment, she shook her head, regarded it as a kind of mental interference, and divided a trace of attention to dispel the dullness.
A few seconds later, she swept past the stone statues, and sure enough, she saw a slender figure behind another large stone statue!
The figure squatted on the ground, the angle, the black hair covering most of the face, and the whole body exuded a cold aura.
Han Xinyi's steps slowed down, and she looked at this figure hesitantly, worried that this was another sacrificial attack.
Because although this figure is wearing Alice's hellish sightseeing sweatshirt, it doesn't look so much like Huai, but more like ......
The figure was originally with his head down, but when he heard her footsteps, he slowly raised his head.
Under the shadows, a pair of narrow Danfeng eyes stared at her, just like the first time they saw it, it was a glimmer of light in the mud.
"Yes...... You? Yu Xing? She was a little surprised, and then jumped up, her eyes curved into a crescent shape, and she was not at all dissatisfied with being smashed by Yu Xing with a stone, "It turns out that you want to kill me, then I understand, hehe...... But I'm not so easy to die~ Do you want to consider giving up, just be with me-"
After she finished speaking, she realized that something was wrong.
Yu Xing just squatted on the ground, motionless, looking at her without saying a word, and suddenly showed a smile.
Han Xinyi's pupils immediately shrank, because she saw that with this smile, Yu Xing's perfect face was suddenly crawling with cracks, crisscrossing one after another, just like those stone statues that were about to shatter.
"What's wrong with you?" She subconsciously squatted down and reached out to touch the face, but Yu Xing didn't hide, and when her fingers fell on her face, a small piece of skin fell off.
Han Xinyi frowned, feeling a burst of anger for no reason.
Because the face is crawling with cracks, even the original beautiful face will become as ugly as a monster.
Her gods don't belong to her yet, they haven't fallen into hell, how can they be disfigured first? Who allowed him to become ugly? How could someone she liked have such obvious flaws!
"Who got it? Is it yourself? Han Xinyi's tone was not good in front of Yu Xing for the first time, she eagerly grabbed Yu Xing's hand, "Get it back, you are the best-looking!" ”
Yu Xing glanced at her, the flesh and blood under the skin that had fallen off her face were bright red, which was extremely dazzling.
“!”
Han Xinyi looked at this bloody place, and her mind instantly cleared.
What is she doing? Such an obvious anomaly, she actually came up unsuspectingly?
Yu Xing's warm skin in her hand instantly became cold and hard, and she looked at it again...... Not only the face, but the whole body of the thing in front of him has turned into a sculpture, and the posture is fixed in place, as if it is a stone statue in a half-squatting position, which is not half similar to Yu Xing at all!
Hallucination?
Han Xinyi's pupils shrank, and she suddenly let go of her hand and stood up straight, embarrassment surging at the same time as a strong warning in her heart.
She actually recognized the wrong person she liked, and ignored the danger like a retarded person.
…… Is it the singing that unconsciously disturbs her? This sacrifice ...... It works faster than you think! However, she didn't actually see Huai have sacrifices that can create illusions in any videos, and if Huai is in the dark, why does the hallucination appear in Yu Xing's appearance?
The man who set out on a hostile mission...... Is it really Huai?
In the distance, the puppet acting as background music turned its head to look in her direction: "Lalala~Lala~"
Han Xinyi: "......"
No, even if she was on top of the rocks, she would have to destroy this thing first!
The next moment, a pale hand reached out from behind her, brushing her hair, and a misty dagger in his hand glittered on her neck.
"I don't know what you just saw, though...... But it's kind of stupid to talk to a stone statue. A familiar magnetic voice sounded above her head, and she felt the blade against her skin, and her body stiffened, her eyes widened, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on her face.
But soon, she regained her composure, and even leaned back, her back against the chest of the person behind her, looking very attached: "It turns out that it is really your ability...... Hee-hee, doesn't that like you too much? You are so powerful, why did you pretend to be Huai's voice just now, it was so similar, I didn't even hear it. Yu Xing, I want to hear more from you. ”
Yu Xing lowered her eyes, feeling the fearlessness in this girl's tone, and as soon as the blade loosened in, a bloody cut appeared on Han Xinyi's neck.
The voice disguised as Huai is a pseudophonic technique that he knows himself, and this technique was also used in the deduction of the horror bar. And he put the [Wrong Doll] there, in order to trigger the doll's ability one-
[The doll locks on to a target with its blurred eyes that can't be found, and sings with a mouth that is also unrecognizable.] Her singing can cause a certain amount of mental damage to the target, and it can also be soothed. Once she speaks, she will keep singing, and when you ask her to shut up, she will be very angry and will not be able to use abilities (2) and (3) for an hour. A deduction can only be used once. 】
Facing Han Xinyi, of course, the doll went for mental damage.
Because Han Xinyi's main ability depends on the spirit, once the spirit is damaged, it will be a huge blow to her combat effectiveness, but he is not sure now, where Han Xinyi's damage is, it seems that except for talking to the stone statue just now, it is quite normal at other times.
…… Relative to a perverted normal.
However, Yu Xing was thinking, I am afraid that Han Xinyi herself doesn't know that something is wrong with her.
She is still expressing her admiration: "Really, Yu Xing, I like everything about you now. Including the way you put a knife on my neck...... It's all so cold and fascinating. Why the hell are you lying to me with Huai's voice? ”
Even if Han Xinyi uses a way of speaking that is really difficult for a man to resist, Yu Xing has lived for so many years and has seen everything, and he will only think that this is just pediatrics.
A psychopathic, extremely paranoid, and extremely exclusive little girl.
There was also a smile in his tone: "Because I want to see what an interesting picture it will be when facing others, talking about cooperation, but already holding a knife in his hand." ”
"If I had known it was you, I wouldn't have come at all, so I didn't want to be hostile to you." Han Xinyi tilted her head back, avoiding the sharp knife, she felt the scar on her neck, which was a little stiff.
She had wiped the throats of so many people and knew what it was like to have their throats cut to death.
It's ugly.
Very undignified.
When the blood vessels burst, they just kneel on the ground, covering their wounds with their hands in vain, trembling and making a "ho-ho-ho" sound from their throats, like dying animals, struggling uselessly in despair.
They may have wanted to cry for help, they wanted to curse her, and they stared at her through the rain, but they couldn't say a word until the blood was soaked in their hands.
She didn't want to die so weakly, it was the most hated way to die. Even if the dagger couldn't really kill her now, she still instinctively resisted the coldness around her neck.
Han Xinyi was thinking, Yu Xing was really a very smart person, and even took this psychological factor into account and used it to restrain her.
Yu Xing smiled and asked, "You're the only one who came?" What about your uncle? ”
"Him?" When Han Xinyi heard the word uncle, she suddenly wanted to laugh a little, "He was driven away by me with an excuse, let him be by my side, do I think I am too safe?" ”
"Oh?" Yu Xing raised an eyebrow.
He speculated that there was a rift between Han Zhiyong and Han Xinyi, and it was by using this that he completed the plan to let the police see Han Xinyi's murder with their own eyes.
It stands to reason that Han Xinyi should not know this, otherwise, Han Zhiyong would not have known all of her crimes. Now that sounds like that's not the case?
"Hee-hee, aren't you curious? If you put the dagger down, I'll tell you all the facts as you wish, okay? Han Xinyi smiled sweetly, "I know you care about the truth~ Otherwise, you can kill me directly just now, and you won't give me a chance to react." Right? Kill me directly, those two uncles of the criminal investigation detachment...... Maybe never~far away from getting the complete facts they want. ”
She was right.
Although the throat-slitting case has nothing to do with Yu Xing, he has a reason to get the truth.
But Yu Xing has always been a person who is more sassy than others, and he must be more sassy than others. Hearing the hidden threat in Han Xinyi's words, he leaned down slightly and leaned into the girl's ear: "Coincidentally, I don't mind playing a cool official." Torture to extract confessions and persuasion with kind words, you can choose whichever you want, but there is no option to restore your freedom. ”
Han Xinyi held Yu Xing's wrist holding the dagger: "I might as well tell you, I have the ability to leave the place after being exempted from one death?" ”
Yu Xing: "I also have the ability to let you gradually decay, but not die immediately~"
After speaking, he also added: "It's just rotten all over your body, and it will become ugly." Do you want to act in the castle like that? ”
Han Xinyi: "......"
Doll: "Lalalala~"
A drop of cold sweat fell from the corner of Han Xinyi's forehead.
Her ears were still surrounded by the doll's singing, and the doll sang endlessly, but since she was held hostage by Yu Xing, she didn't feel that the song had any tendency to control her or hallucinate it.
There was silence for two seconds, and before the dagger could cut through the skin again, she spoke, "Well, since you want to know, I'll tell you." ”
"But before that, I want to ask you to promise one thing."
Yu Xing tilted his head: "You say, I'll think about it." ”
The corners of Han Xinyi's mouth curled: "I don't care so much about rot or anything, it's just because it's you who wants to know the truth, so I'll tell you." You see? I didn't even do anything to you after I knew it was you, did I? ”
"But that doesn't mean ...... I won't fight back when you really want to kill me. That's right, I realize, you're better than I thought you were, and you're a real threat to me. ”
"So what I want you to promise me is...... After listening to my story, if you no longer think that I am completely wrong, give up the idea of killing me. I like you and want you to be with me, but if I had to choose between my likes and my life, I would definitely choose the latter. ”
As she spoke, she was no longer afraid of the blade, turned around under Yu Xing's clamping, and looked at Yu Xing: "This is the opportunity I gave myself, and it is also the opportunity I gave you." ”
"When you know the truth, give up killing me, I will continue to like you, everything will follow you, until you also like me."
"Insist on killing me...... I'm going to do it to you. If I can't be with you, I'll kill you, and it's great to hide you as a souvenir. ”
Yu Xing looked at the madness in her eyes, and the large bloody wound cut by the dagger on her neck when she turned around, and knew that a sharp weapon alone really couldn't shake this girl with a twisted personality.
However, it is precisely because of this distortion and paranoia that Han Xinyi will not lie to him.
He simply withdrew the dagger and leaned against the stone statue behind him: "Okay, then listen to me." ”
……
Again, there are many reasons for a person's psychological distortion, which may be just a momentary collapse and remodeling, or it may be constantly polluted and falling by the surrounding environment before finally developing such a personality.
Han Xinyi probably belongs to the latter.
When she didn't remember, she left her parents, and her first impression was the back of the old director of the children's welfare home.
In the welfare home, she worked hard to grow up, eating unappetizing meals, closing her eyes with other children while they slept, but she suffered from insomnia for a long time.
There was an anxiety that enveloped her day and night, even though she was only five or six years old, but she was already enlightened and could think a lot.
She couldn't remember where the anxiety was coming from, she felt as if she had forgotten something, and the anxiety was with her. As a result, she studied by herself every day in the small library donated by investors, constantly enriching herself, becoming smarter and smarter, and gradually alienated from other children in the orphanage.
Han Xinyi asked the dean why she was sent to the welfare home?
The dean smiled kindly, patted her on the head, and told her that her parents had an accident and went to another world, but that heaven would bless her.
Another world of bullshit is dead.
Han Xinyi easily exposed the dean's white lies, but she didn't say it, but nodded ignorantly under the dean's gaze, revealing a happy smile that met the dean's expectations.
Her parents are dead, and there is no sorrow for Han Xinyi.
It's just two strangers who can't even remember what they look like.
One day, however, she was helping the grandmother in the small yard to water the flowers, when a handsome man who looked to be less than thirty years old walked in, came to her, squatted down and said to her, "Is it Xinyi?" I'm your dad, I'm here to pick you up. ”
At this time, she found that the other children in the yard had disappeared, and the dean's grandmother did not come, only this very good-looking man was smiling at her.
Is this my dad?
Han Xinyi looked at that face and compared it with her own appearance, it was indeed very similar.
Maybe only this man's genes gave birth to a child like her, even if she is alienated from everyone, she is still liked by everyone because of her cuteness.
She took the man's hand and followed him out.
It wasn't until she walked out of the gate of the welfare home and came to a private car that she suddenly woke up and found that she had come out in a trance.
The man who calls himself her dad is like hypnotic...... The uneasiness in her heart began to surge, she grabbed the car door and didn't go up, and asked stubbornly, "What about Grandma Dean?" ”
The man half-coaxed and half-forcibly stuffed her into the car, and a smile appeared on the young and handsome face that Han Xinyi couldn't understand.
Only then did she see that there were a few red marks on the man's suit shirt.
What is that?
The man touched her head: "Xinyi, you remember, my name is Han Yan, your father, and your only relative." As for the dean's grandmother...... She's just an unimportant stranger. ”
Han Xinyi pushed his hand away, not agreeing with his words.
For her, her parents are unimportant strangers, and Grandma Dean is a good grandmother who has always taken care of her!
Seeing that she insisted, Han Yan started the car and chuckled.
"If you must be wondering...... Dean Grandma...... In the trunk. ”
