Chapter 33: I Hammer Myself

Squatting on the ground, Qiu Xuan's heart was cold.

If what she had experienced was not a dream, what was it about her now? Qin Jiuyuan, Gu Qingyue, Zhao Ke...... Are these people real?

Who is that person in the mirror?

Qiu Xuan thinks that she has come into contact with the "key point" that can connect the clues, but she doesn't know that this pushes her to a deeper mystery.

It seemed that seeing that her face was wrong, Qin Jiuyuan asked, "What's wrong?" ”

“…… Would you believe me if I said that this was the fifth night of revelry I've ever experienced? ”

"Wow, Groundhog Day? That's pretty cool. ”

"What's cool!" Qiu Xuan glared at him, "And it's not just that I'm trapped in a time loop, everything here, including you, may not be real!" Do you still think it's cool! ”

"So, do you think I'm real?" Qin Jiuyuan restrained his slightly teasing expression and looked directly into her eyes.

“…… I do not know. ”

"Hey, little girl, relax, don't think about it so much." He patted Qiu Xuan's shoulder gently, "As long as you want it to be real, it is." ”

Qiu Xuan was not comforted at all, "Don't keep perfunctory me with such words." She said dissatisfied.

Qin Jiuyuan chuckled meaninglessly, "You'll find out later." The man's voice was soft, almost muttering, "I won't lie to you." ”

Qiu Xuan raised her hand a little irritably and brushed the messy hair in front of her, and then looked at her wrist and was stunned for a moment.

"My necklace is missing! It's the birdcage necklace that Xiaolu gave me! ”

"Don't worry." Qin Jiuyuan comforted, "Think about when you disappeared first, and then I'll accompany you to find it." ”

Qiu Xuan thought about it from beginning to end, and before she and Lu Xingzhou parted, she remembered that the necklace was still in her hand, that is, it was only possible that she had lost it when she was on the third floor.

And when she first went up to the third floor, she ran into a man with a knife......

"The glasses poet is gone, let's go, let's look on this floor first." Qin Jiuyuan stood up and stretched out a hand to Qiu Xuan to pull her up.

“…… No need to look for it. ”

Qiu Xuan lowered her head, her broken hair hanging down to cover her expression, "I know." ”

Oh, it all came together, and during the second time reset, a figure who couldn't see her body attacked her, dropping her weapon and leaving the necklace behind.

It turned out that there were no people with knives at all. The person who was attacked, the person who attacked her, the person who left the necklace and picked it up, the person in the mirror, it was always herself.

It's her Qiu Xuan herself.

"Brother Yuan," she lowered her head and called Qin Jiuyuan softly, "Can you please go downstairs and wait for me." ”

The man looked at her in silence for a moment, then finally sighed and touched her head in a standing position.

"Goodbye, then, little girl." He said this, and then walked up the stairs, "I can wait for you all the time, but only if you remember that someone is waiting for you." ”

With that, the man disappeared around the corner.

Qiu Xuan stood up expressionlessly, straightened out the sleeves of his shirt that had been messed up in the run just now, and then walked towards the large wardrobe at the end.

She opened the door of the closet, and in the mirror, the figure was still standing there with the same posture and expression as her, and her white face was full of coldness.

If it weren't for the blood stains on his face, Qiu Xuan would really believe that this was an ordinary mirror.

In order to verify this sentence, "Qiu Xuan" suddenly and slowly, blinked lightly at Qiu Xuan. Then, the corners of her mouth went up to reveal a bright, perfect smile.

"Who are you?" Qiu Xuan asked expressionlessly.

"Don't be stupid, what kind of stupid question is this." The person in the mirror raised an eyebrow and smiled at her, "I'm Qiu Xuan, of course you too." ”

"You're you/mom." Qiu Xuan said, "I'm a flying fairy outside the sky, and I shovel your faker's dog head." ”

"Don't say it," the person in the mirror was not angry, but only followed her words perfunctorily with a face written on his face: "It's all water cooler guardians, what did faker do wrong?" ”

Qiu Xuan didn't want to play boring with her anymore, she looked around, then picked up a crossbar behind her and smashed it straight into the mirror.

"I advise you not to do that." The man said as if he hadn't seen the crossbar that smashed into her, "I said it, I'm Qiu Xuan, and if I get hurt, you will be hurt too." In the same way, if I disappear, so will you. ”

Qiu Xuan didn't answer this, and seeing that Hengmu couldn't cause any substantial damage to the mirror, she threw it to the side casually, then looked at the person in the mirror and said, "Give me back the necklace." ”

"That's what was originally mine, why should I pay you back?"

However, before Qiu Xuan could speak, the man suddenly became emotional, and stepped forward to put his face against the edge of the mirror, looking at her with a malicious resentful look: "Don't you think it's unfair? Obviously I'm also 'Qiu Xuan', why can you walk freely, and I can only be locked in the goddamn mirror of this damn closet! ”

The Man in the Mirror continued: "I know everything you go through and all your thoughts, because I am who you are. But it's the same person, but I'm only confined here, and I can only watch you do whatever I want! ”

"Thankfully, I found an opportunity...... Carnival night! So, while you are indulging in dreams, I have pulled you to this parallel world. Taking advantage of the loophole of time, I finally succeeded, I created a 'Qiu Xuan' that was left out in the time layer, and then took possession of that body. At this point, I was finally free. ”

Qiu Xuan was silent for a while, "So...... After eating the hot pot, everyone should have turned black, but the reason why I'm okay is that you, my dark side. 'You' reversed 'me' and pulled me into this parallel world, right? ”

"It's okay if you want to understand it that way." The man in the mirror shrugged, "I'm not some dark side of you, though. I'm you, Qiu Xuan. We are the same, from the beginning, we were one person. ”

Qiu Xuan: "Are you thinking about fart? A faker is a faker, and we're never alone. ”

"Haha," as if hearing something funny, the man laughed, and then looked at Qiu Xuan and spoke, "No, no, no, sooner or later you will know, denying my existence is equivalent to denying yourself." But now, it's time for you to feel the pain I've been suffering all along. ”

Intuition was not good, Qiu Xuan turned around and ran away, only to find that no matter how she opened her legs, she was standing still.

"It's useless," the voice reached her ear at some point, "no matter where you go, you'll never get rid of me, because you'll never get rid of yourself." ”

In the next second, Qiu Xuan's vision turned, and a figure exactly like herself stood in front of her.

"I want you to stand here and look at me." The figure said, "That's it, keep looking at me." ”

"Goodbye, Qiu Xuan."

Qiu Xuan patted the transparent barrier in front of her with both arms, and then watched as the man smiled at him and closed the door of the closet.

Her vision went dark, and within a few seconds, her mind went blank for a moment, and she lost consciousness completely.

……

Time has reset again. This is the consciousness in Qiu Xuan's brain when she wakes up from the darkness again. Perhaps the only thing that was a good thing was that she didn't have to be woken up by Lu Xingzhou's tattered horn again?

But this is not as good as the tattered horn of Lu Xingzhou. Qiu Xuan sat in the darkness, staring at the vast darkness around her and thinking.

During this period, she tried countless ways to get out of the mirror, but the result was just like what "Qiu Xuan" said, the person who was imprisoned in the mirror could not be free at all. Unless she also looks for an opportunity like a "self-discipline night", and then goes through a time loop to find loopholes and create a "Qiu Xuan".

Not to mention whether there is such a ghost thing as "Self-Discipline Night", just ending this time backtracking is enough to make Qiu Xuan's head big.

She sat cross-legged on the floor with her temples pressed again, thinking about her next steps. At that moment, a faint light shone through a thin slit.

Qiu Xuan squinted her eyes and looked at the light, and heard a small voice talking, although she couldn't hear it very clearly, but her own voice Qiu Xuan could always recognize.

The voice that clearly belonged to Qiu Xuan said: "I found a clue in the mirror of my room before, saying that there is something bad hidden in the wardrobe mirror at the end of the third floor of the villa, which sounds like a curse." We'd better be careful when we open the cabinet door. ”

Qiu Xuan: I'll let you/fart, do you listen to what you said this is human talk?

The cabinet door was carefully opened, and Qiu Xuan didn't bother to stand up, maintaining a cross-legged sitting posture in the mirror, looking up at them.

The first thing that caught his eye was Lu Xingzhou, and the noisy young man was taken aback when he saw her, and reflexively looked back at "Qiu Xuan" standing beside him, and then turned back to look at her.

Qiu Xuan was made angry by his monkey-looking eyes, but she didn't say anything, only her eyes turned around from "Qiu Xuan" and Gu Qingyue, and then stayed on Qin Jiuyuan.

She had never seen this expression of a man, or rather, Qin Jiuyuan had never shown this expression to her when he was with her.

The indifferent, arrogant, unbridled, condescending and cold-eyed. It's like looking at a speck of dust on the side of the road, a pebble, there is no difference. It's not deliberate contempt, but it doesn't care at all.

He didn't care about the weird situation in the mirror, or what was happening in front of him. Like a god from above, he overlooks the world, but he is indifferent.

Qiu Xuan suddenly thought that Qin Jiuyuan would talk to him about it because he was like this, being a cold-eyed spectator and withdrawing himself from things.

She suddenly became even angrier.
