"Why are you always disobedient? I'm your mother, and who else in this world is better to you than I am? I'm working hard to make money outside just for you, can you be more sensible and cause me less trouble outside? ”

Su Luo turned around and wanted to leave the place, but there was nowhere to go. The always bright girl hung her head weakly and hugged Su Jing's neck, which was the only warm solace in the cold and scarlet-twisted world.

But even if you don't want to look at it, the rotten door at the end of the corridor has completely turned into pieces of ashes, and the thin door panel has disappeared in an instant. Blood-red walls encased a filthy room. A monster with a fat belly and a pair of broken bat wings on its back was whirling awkwardly around the two large iron cages in the room. It looked like a swollen corpse that had been soaked in water for many days, with thick legs and arms, and its five fingers were like the claws of some kind of bird of prey, sharp and long.

Su Jing cursed lightly, but Su Luo didn't hear what he said.

Inside the iron cage were two skinny ceramic dolls, their noses and ears shrunk to look twisted and resentful, only their mouths and eyes were drawn very large, and in their bloody mouths were Bai Sensen's sharp teeth. The fat monster fiddled with two iron cages suspended in chains in the middle of the room, the hands and feet of the figures in the cages were bound by thin steel chains, and the fragile bodies of the ceramics were covered with cobweb-like cracks.

The monster muttered curses as it slashes its sharp nails across the ceramic doll's body, making a high-pitched, piercing noise. Thin powders fell from the doll's body and quickly disappeared on the soft ground.

Completely ignoring the two people outside the door, the monster got tired after fiddling with it for a while. It crawled onto the pink festering bed. Falling asleep, there are a number of unsightly adult toys lying on the bedside.

Su Luo held Su Jing's wrist tightly. The long nails sank straight into his flesh. Su Jing gently stroked her hair and asked her to turn her face away. The young man walked into the room with a shotgun in hand. Silently walked to the side of the bed and aimed his shotgun at the fat ugly face of the monster on the bed.

As if sensing something, the monster on the bed opened its eyes and met Su Jing's cold gaze. It chuckled, lifted the thin quilt it had covered, and the fat cavern between its legs gradually expanded into a large mouth, which slowly wrapped around him, as if it were going to swallow him back into its stomach.

Su Jing pulled the trigger without hesitation, and a deafening gunshot rang out. The bullet exploded in the monster's skull almost without any hindrance. Human-like screams echoed through the room, and dim lights flickered as if the voltage was unstable. Su Jing pulled the trigger again until the bullet was empty.

The monster on the bed stopped struggling, losing the last of its breath. The iron cage hanging from the roof creaked and turned, and the puppet in the iron cage stared at the scene with large glass eyes, and his expression was blank.

Su Jing turned around, but saw that the entire wall of the blood-red bucket room was full of mirrors. The room in the mirror is clean and tidy, and the décor looks elegant and understated. Except that the female corpse on the bed and the exploding blood flowers are very incongruous with the neat environment. The normal world in the mirror contrasts with the strange and twisted world he lives in.

Two skinny children, neatly dressed and holding each other's hands, stood in the center of the room, like a pair of ceramic sculptures. The female corpse on the bed appeared pure and holy in the normal light, fair and well-maintained skin. Splatters of blood slowly trickle down. Su Jing approached the mirror, he didn't have any shadow in the mirror, where he should be. It's transparent, blank.

On this huge bedroom mirror. A line of words is written in blood:

[Do all parents in the world love their children?] 】

He stared at the mirror for a long time, and there seemed to be something unusual on the surface of the female corpse lying on the bed in the mirror. Her beautiful long black hair was draped over her shoulders like a waterfall, soaked in blood a little bit. Su Jing's gaze swept over the corpse's slender and slender limbs and bumpy body, and finally fixed on her flat lower abdomen, where there was a tattoo of a long sword.

Su Jing pulled out the kitchen knife from the bar from his waist and cut open the monster's swollen belly regardless of the smell. rummaging in dirty organs, stomach, intestines, lung cavities...... No, no, or nothing.

It's the womb.

Su Jing tore open the monster's flexible swollen uterus with a knife in his hand, and the heavy and sharp cold blade smoothly plunged into the placenta, splitting the half-formed fetus into two pieces, and blood and pus quickly overflowed at the knife edge. Su Jing's fingers reached inside, parting the soft flesh, and finally touched the hard thing.

He used his index and middle fingers to pull it out, and it was a bright red gem the size of a pigeon's egg, with a beautiful facet. Su Jing wiped it clean with the hem of his shirt, he had never seen such a beautiful natural gem, it was like a magnificent dream in reality. The bright red gem showed an inappropriate purity in the blood-colored room, and this ruby had a magic that made people sink into it, as if as long as you hold it, you can forget the pain and immerse yourself in the beautiful light.

"Ah Jing...... You killed her. ”

Su Luo stood in the room, not looking away from the ugly corpse on the bed. She took the gem from Su Jing's hand and lowered her eyelashes, the light of the gem shining on the eyes of the two people at the same time.

As a result, the distortion of the world gradually faded, and the walls dripping with blood were covered with white skin, and the ground gradually became dry and solid. The iron cage hanging from the ceiling was creaked away and disappeared from the black cavern. The corpse of the monster on the bed gradually dispersed into gray sand—all unpleasant things disappeared in the light of the jewels, and they were restored to a gloomy and cold environment, and the light of the sky was cast outside the curtains, and the interior was dark, like the twilight that was going down after sunset.

“…… Brother, there seems to be something in this stone. ”

Su Jing turned on the fluorescent lamp in the room, and Su Luo put the ruby under the cold light and rotated it slowly. There seem to be some natural veins in the gemstone, which are not clear under the fluorescent lamp.

Su Jing checked the doors on both sides of the corridor one by one, there was a room that seemed to be a child's residence, but the wall was pierced, and one wall was transparent glass, so that people could clearly and meticulously observe the things in the room from the corridor.

Su Jing opened the door, and the small room was filled with all kinds of books. The desk and bed are piled with all kinds of fairy tales and encyclopedias, and two bookcases are placed side by side. Without saying a word, he slid his fingers over the rows of books, covered with ash, and in the light white dust, only the middle row had traces of being dragged and read. He pulled out the pamphlet with his fingernails and opened it.

It is a lot of childish drawings, and every page of the loose-leaf notebook has been removed, and each page has been smeared with different things. Su Jing's lips were smiling, this little trick was a game he had played before.

“…… It's really a masterpiece. Su Luo stood at the door of the children's bedroom with her arms crossed, her face a little haggard, "No matter who it is, it is too inferior to make this fantasy world." ”

When she saw the piece of paper in Su Jing's hand in a blink of an eye, she couldn't help but smile: "How long has it been since you played with this thing?" ”

Each piece of paper has different parts, and when the paper is stacked on top of each other, different combinations appear under the light. Su Jing put these drawings back in her notebook, thought for a while, and asked Su Luo to ask for the gem.

When the double curtains were all drawn, the fluorescent lights were turned off, and the small room was dark and quiet. Su Jing unscrewed the lamp on the desk, which was the only warm light in this room, and the light yellow high-wattage table lamp bulb brought not only light, but also a little warmth.

Su Jing placed the ruby on the front of the lampshade of the lamp, and the light passed through the red crystals and projected onto the window pane close to the corridor. The tiny veins inside were fibers under the illumination of the light, and Su Jing carefully turned the gemstone, so that the lines inside gradually changed to the right position, and all the seemingly chaotic traces were put together to form a slightly crooked line of text:

[The sapphire was stolen by the students.] 】

“…… Sapphire...... Student ......" Su Jing thought for a moment against the wall, and suddenly tapped his forehead with his fingers, "I remembered!" I remembered what it was! ”

Su Jing quickly turned on the fluorescent lamp and began to rummage through the bookcase, and after a few seconds, he pulled out a fairy tale from the bookshelf on the lower level.

“…… This is the Oscars. Wilde's The Happy Prince. The statue of the prince standing in the square asks Swallow to give the ruby on the hilt of his sword to the poor seamstress who is raising the child, and then asks Swallow to give his sapphire eyes to the young student who writes the script and a little girl who sells matches. Finally, he asked Swallow to give the gold pieces to all the poor people in the streets......"

"The tailor's ruby, followed by the student's sapphire...... That's right! ”

Su Jing and Su Luo glanced at each other.

"In other words, what we have to do next is to get back the things that the prince sent out to the swallow one by one......"

The world arranged by the Iron Thorn Girl seemed to allow Su Jing to recreate this widely circulated fairy tale, and only in the first part of this children's story, Su Jing felt the other party's deep understanding of him, and the malice built on this understanding.

Combined with his previous simple understanding of the world plot of the "Silent Hill" series, the mission of this world is probably ten times more difficult than simple combat. The other party did not physically consume his strength, but invaded his heart little by little...... This says a lot.

Who are you?

Su Jing sat on the edge of the bed, deducing the whole incident little by little with the information gathered. He took a notebook on the bookcase and recorded all the clues.

A girl of the same blood leaned against the wall, thoughtful. (To be continued......)
