Chapter 39: Then Die
Shi Yuan didn't count Tang Minmei in the team, she was just an outsider after all. Moreover, she fainted and was unable to participate in the discussion.
Just as Shi Yuan's voice fell, a voice came.
"My dolls, for you."
Tang Minmei woke up at some point, still holding the doll in her hand.
Although it was Shi Yuan who picked up the puppet just now, he did not keep it for himself, but put the puppet back into Tang Minmei's hands.
In this situation, a puppet is equivalent to a human life. Shi Yuan has his own way of survival, and he doesn't want to deprive others of the chance to survive.
"Sister Tang, ...... are you?"
"I didn't want to live anymore," Tang Minmei's eyes were very gloomy, "Before I came here, I was about to commit suicide." I tried several times and it didn't work. Come to think of it, maybe there is some mysterious force stopping me, and the purpose of that power is to let me experience the strange events here. ”
Her expression was always calm, as if she was not talking about important things about life and death, but small things that didn't matter.
"Why?"
An Lingxian immediately asked.
"I ...... My ......" Tang Minmei's expression changed, and she lowered her head in pain, "My mother has always used me as a tool to make money, and she has never really cared about me...... She only raised her eyebrows at me and had no affection for me. If a person can't even get a mother's love, then what's the point of her living? ”
She covered her face with her hands, her shoulders shaking slightly.
She continued: "When I was younger, my mother would lash out when I didn't do well in exams, and she would say to me, 'You're so useless, how are you going to make a lot of money in the future?' How do I provide for my old age? After graduating, I got a very good job, and with a high income, my mother was finally happy. However, the good times did not last long, and she fell into the bad habit of gambling and gambling, and no matter how much money I made, it was not enough for her. Her temper has worsened, and she scolds me all day long...... I'm the CFO of a big company! My income is definitely not low! However, she didn't know what satisfaction was, she only knew how to scold me, and every day she would scold me for not being angry, and scolding me for being useless...... I'm in pain, really in pain......
"I was desperate to talk to someone, so I found a colleague of mine. I thought she was my friend, so I told her all the pain in my heart. However, I didn't expect that she would secretly tell others about it, and laugh at me behind my back, saying that I deserved it. I was in utter despair. At that moment, I realized the ugliness of human beings.
"If I could, I hope that I could kill everyone with my own hands and make the dirty species of humanity completely disappear from the face of the earth. But I can't, the only person I can kill is myself.
"But, after entering this place, and seeing so many strange phenomena, I changed my mind. From you, I see a less ugly side. Perhaps, you are worthy of this life. Therefore, I want to give you the hope of living. As for myself, I'll die. There is no pity to give up this life. Hehe, I just feel a little sorry because I couldn't see my mother in anger after losing my cash cow. ”
Tang Minmei's face became miserable, and although there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, that smile was extremely sad.
There was a brief silence in the air around them.
After a few seconds, Shi Yuan said, "If you live for others, then die." ”
"What...... What the? ”
Tang Minmei was slightly surprised and looked at Shi Yuan.
"Are you living for someone else? Don't be stupid, in life, the most important thing is to be happy. There is no one in this world who can satisfy everyone. What about your mother using you as a cash cow? What if your colleagues aren't really friends with you? You just have to be happy. The person you should care about the most is yourself, but you have been treating her badly. ”
"But...... However, she is my mother, and I will ...... as long as I live."
"You have to send all your money to her unconditionally, right?"
"Also...... It's not ......"
"The fact that you're in the position of CFO shows that you're not a complete idiot. Think about it for yourself. My advice is that if you make it back alive, change cities, find a new job, and start your life all over again. It may sound corny to say this, but I really don't want people who really make mistakes to live well, and people who are hurt to die. ”
Tang Minmei's originally lowered eyes suddenly widened, and her body trembled slightly.
yes, why should I kill myself? Why?
She jerked her head up.
Shi Yuan is no longer in place.
Pressed for time. It has taken a long time to reassure Tang Minmei, and Shi Yuan must find more things that can help them survive as soon as possible.
Shi Yuan knew that in addition to the witch spirit puppets, there was another thing that could help them survive.
Something that can greatly enhance the strength of a person.
So what could it be?
"Hey, Shi Yuan," Gou Xiao secretly pulled Shi Yuan's sleeve, and looked at Tang Minmei behind him with a thief, "Are you really sure that there is another way to survive?" ”
"Sure."
"But in case ......"
"You don't have to worry. If you can't find it, I'll give you my doll. ”
When Shi Yuan's words came to this, Gou Xiaoxiao couldn't say anything more.
Next to him, An Lingxian and Xue Takegami knew each other, and they kept talking. Naturally, Yasuke – or Liyue Takegami – recalls her native language completely, communicating with Takekami's useless native language.
"Sister, what's going on in this place?"
"I don't know. It seems to be a separate space, completely different from the world we usually live in. However, this situation is not entirely new to me. ”
"What do you mean?"
Yuki Takegami was not alert.
"There's one thing you've probably completely forgotten. When you were in Haiyuan, you and Shi Yuan met on a subway train and completed a task together. I want to tell you that the mission was just one of dozens. What we are experiencing right now is also one of the tasks. ”
"Task? What is it exactly? ”
"I think it's a curse. That curse, starting from Raven Ridge, gradually spread outward. I think it won't be long before it spreads to a huge extent, enveloping the whole country and even the whole world. At that time, there will be no more safe corners of this world. Anywhere, anyone, at any time, can encounter strange visions and ghosts, and die in an instant without warning. ”
