Chapter 188: The Golden Oath of Despair
Earlier we said that the black shadow who entered and exited Atum's hut in the middle of the night broke away from the basement and came to the staircase under the black goat, so what did he do after that?
At that time, Qingguo and Feng Xi should still be sitting at the dining table in the living room, so it is impossible for the black shadow to leave through the upstairs door, and if people see him, the plan will not be realized.
He couldn't have chosen to go down the stairs, because that wouldn't mean that the layers of exit routes just now were useless? If you go downstairs, you might as well come out of the downstairs door!
The Black Shadow stood at the side of the Black Goat, preparing his own special plan of action. Qingguo Fengxi's habit of not turning on the light in the middle of the night gave him great convenience, pinning the flashlight to his waist, so that the light source was facing downward, so that the people in the living room could not perceive the bright light as much as possible, and the black shadow groped along the stairs little by little to the face of the black goat, where there were two bright eyes of the goat.
'The left side of the left looks to the right, the left side of the right looks down, the right side of the right looks to the left, the left side of the right looks up, and then one, two, three, four look together in the middle......' The shadow muttered in a barely audible voice, noticing if there was anything wrong in his direction.
The black goat, the black staircase, the black partition, the black space, the black figure, in the black, a certain part of the goat's body began to move faintly with the white fingers.
There was a slight friction sound in the void, but Qingguo and Feng Xi, who were in the same space, were not attracted at all, they were still discussing the loud noise that suddenly made in the middle of the night.

Between 6 a.m. and 12 noon the next day
The two men in the room were lying on the floor, moving slowly, and the girl in front of the man moved a little faster, as if she was looking for something, and her face was full of worry.
What happened in the middle of the night was too terrible for them, no one in this family wants something bad to happen, but it has happened, they have to think about what to do next! Wouldn't it be nice to find a way out for yourself?
The girl was holding a large box of napkins in her arms, and was wiping something while pulling out a large worn box from under the bed. It's a toolbox with all sorts of fun stuff in it, such as a green fake beard, pure gold needles and silk threads, arthropod dolls with crooked little heads, a red wool skirt with many cavities, a blue-gray wig, and a lipstick that I don't know when I bought it.
The girl put down the napkin box, opened the box, and put the contents in front of the man behind her, as if to see what he was suitable for.
The man's expression was helpless, but he never complained, he sat there, and put the girl on the floor as if it were on his body, and the two of them did not stop until the box was empty.
The girl opened her mouth and said, "Honey, which one are you going to choose?" β
But the man in front of her just shook his head, didn't answer, and didn't choose.
The girl reached out and picked up the arthropod doll and said, "I think this is okay, there are a lot of things hidden in the doll's body!" For example, a document with your previous photo, etc. Then I'll make it a little dress, which should be ready by tonight, and then we'll hide the doll in our arms and wait for them to come. β
The man's expression began to be depressed, or rather unconfident, after the girl had finished speaking, and he lowered his head, still shaking his head, unwilling to speak.
The girl has no choice but to continue to use something else to attract the man's attention, hoping that he can give herself a positive answer. After a long time, the man spoke his first words: "I... Think about these things...... It's useless, it's really ......."
"So what to do? In addition to these, we can't find a suitable carrier! Someone from outside is coming to pick us up tonight, we can't rely on others and don't want to do anything ourselves, right?! β
"I know...... But... What's the solution? I...... This is what it looks like..."The man could not speak in a coherent manner, as if he had a stutter. The girl didn't care, but listened and thought with interest.
After I don't know how long, the two finally came up with a unified plan, the girl pushed all the things on the ground to the side, and then put the item in her hand into the backpack, packed a few changes of clothes and some daily necessities, and leaned on the man's arms and began to rest.
No wonder, no one could have slept last night! Now, the people in the other two rooms must be thinking about how to get through these days safely.
"My dear, I think it's a good thing if we can die together like Baozi and Jiuyin, and we won't have to face so many troublesome and uncomfortable things." The girl said this, and her face now showed a look of expectation.
The man behind her said, "You... Willing...... Is it? β
"Yes! Because that's with you, I'm willing to do whatever I do! β
"So...... Let's die together now...... May I? β
"What are you talking about, dear? Why die together now? The girl was puzzled.
"Are you scared?"
"No! I said that I am willing to do anything with you! Once again, the girl expressed her determination.
At this time, the man behind her finally smiled, adding a layer of weirdness to the ugly face. In the place where the girl was not looking, the man was holding the pure golden silk thread in his hand, and the gold shone brightly against the light in the room.
In the tranquil illusion of a deep and void that never ends, two figures overlapped, one of them holding his head high, his hands at his neck grasping something unknowingly. The other body leaned back sharply, as if it would lie on the floor in the next second. Between them, two faint golden lines stretched straight, like silk strings on the surface of the instrument.
Before the afternoon came, no one would bother them, and the man was relieved to do what he wanted to do, and suddenly, the golden thread on one side broke without warning, and in a moment of relaxation, the girl who was not completely unconscious quickly crawled towards a certain place, and then stumbled open a small door and disappeared into the narrow space.
The man who hadn't reacted froze in place, and after a long time, a roar erupted from his throat, like a beastβ
"Didn't you say you would do anything with me? You lied to me!! β
In this only coherent sentence, it is full of men's anger and unwillingness, as well as a complete despair of love.
