Chapter 31: Li Wuchang, a psychopath
Outside the window, the night was hazy, and in the gauzy clouds, a moon slowly rose.
In the dark, Li Wuchang stared out the window with his eyes and continued to think quietly.
"For now, everything is going well, I have found a place to live, I have found a job, and tomorrow we will officially start investigating the matter about the Dongfang family."
"That blue-haired Lance, he really picked it up cheaply, and he actually possessed Dongfang Ying who was killed by me, and also inherited his memory and ability......"
"Moreover, he has the ability to parasitize, Irena didn't even mention it before, it seems that she doesn't know much about this 'eraser'. Could it be that even she doesn't know? ”
"No, what's more noteworthy is that it was only half an hour between the time I killed Dongfang Ying and the time we returned to the tavern and was finally wiped out by that red-haired man named Sanichi, which means that it was not an accident that Lance was possessed by Dongfang Ying, he must have been waiting in secret for a long time."
"I can't imagine that he, who was chased by me to flee the slum before, actually has the courage to wait in secret, and besides, Irena didn't perceive it?"
"It's the weirdest thing, and she'll have to ask when she wakes up."
Li Wuchang got up, sat for a while and then lay down again.
"If I were that Lance, and I suddenly gained such a strong power, and suddenly gained the status of a member of the Eastern Family, and my purpose was to destroy the world, then what would I do next?"
"Eh, who knows what that madman is thinking, that sixth brother, as soon as he inherits his ability, he will bring someone to kill me."
"And, what's the origin of that red-haired man named Sanichi? Shouldn't people with prison-level abilities like Fa Ge and Xiang Fan be very powerful, and they won't be killed by him instantly, right......? ”
"If that man is really what Lin Han said, the master next to the king, then the king strength setting in this world is a bit too much......"
"Forget it, it's none of my business, anyway, they don't die in this timeline."
"The next plan is to find out more information through Yaoyao, the eldest lady who is easy to talk about, and wait until Irena wakes up, and then start preparing to contact the Dongfang family."
He rolled over, then got up again, pulled up the brown curtains, and lay back on the bed.
Still not sleepy, his eyes widened as he stared into the night, and his thoughts drifted out again.
He recalled his "golden finger" ------ the power of reincarnation.
In the more than half a month since he came to this world, he has died a total of four times.
The first time was when Irena found a gun and shot him in the head without Li Wuchang's consent in order to convince him of his own abilities, and then Li Wuchang didn't forgive her for a few days.
The second time was when Li Wuchang was passing by a small bridge that had not been built, he accidentally fell down and drowned.
The third time was when he was chasing Lance in the slums, and Meng Yao shot him out of panic and self-defense.
The fourth time was the most recent, that is, last night, when Sang Yi came to the tavern to massacre everyone, Li Wuchang committed suicide by swallowing a gun.
Some people may wonder if Li Wuchang is always dying and dying, even committing suicide, isn't he afraid?
Afraid, of course Li Wuchang is afraid.
If the first three deaths were accidental, and they all died without the slightest defense, then it would be fine, but he might have the idea of swallowing a gun to kill himself in order to go back in time and save the lives of the tavern members, but he would never hesitate to put it into practice.
Li Wuchang, like most people, is also an ordinary person, and a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.
But last night, he was very abnormal compared to usual, facing Lin Han who died because he helped him escape and because he protected himself, even if the two had only been together for less than two days, Li Wuchang's mood at that time was extremely complicated.
In the panic, he was still struggling in his heart whether to practice that idea, after all, he didn't dare to let him face the muzzle of the gun and pull the trigger.
But the accident still happened, Li Wuchang didn't hesitate for too long at that time, and then neatly took out the musket given by Meng Yao and pulled the trigger on his temple.
Looking back now, Li Wuchang still feels incredible, in fact, he didn't have that guts, but at that time, it seemed that there was a magic power controlling his whole body, doing things he didn't dare to do.
Regarding the cause and effect of this incident, it is necessary to trace back to some of Li Wuchang's experiences in his previous life.
He was a mentally ill man, according to doctors at the irregular hospital at the time------ he suffered from schizotypal personality.
When he was in high school, he discovered that he had such an unusual side, that he had done many things that would not have been possible with his smooth personality.
At first, Li Wuchang was very scared, he wanted to find someone to talk to, and wanted to tell others about it, but he lost his parents since he was a child, and there was only one uncle who didn't take much care of him to support him, so how could he have any relatives to confide in.
But as time went by, he found that the other "Li Wuchang" lurking in the depths of his heart did not haunt often and would not affect his daily life, and over time he would no longer care about it.
Because of some unpleasant things that happened in high school, Li Wuchang could no longer integrate into social life after graduation, and he went to some informal hospitals for treatment while looking for a job.
The reason why he didn't go to the regular hospital in the city was because he was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so when he was later diagnosed with mental illness, the small hospital there did not fulfill its duties as a doctor and did not make his symptoms public, otherwise it would interfere with his daily life, and Li Wuchang didn't want to worry about something that seemed insignificant to him.
There is another personality living in his body, whose personality is completely opposite to him, and can be said to be white and black compared to Li Wuchang, so last night's "Li Wuchang" once again took over Li Wuchang's body and did what he wanted to do but didn't dare to do.
He frowned, rubbed his temples with both hands, and after many years, he was once again troubled by this mental illness.
After a long time, Li Wuchang retracted his thoughts, and he didn't know how long it had passed, but gradually, a wave of sleepiness hit, and he slowly fell asleep.
..........
Yaoyao can't sleep tonight.
In Shangguan's mansion, in Meng Yao's room, it was pitch black all around, Meng Yao was lying on a comfortable bed, tightly covered with a soft quilt, her eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling.
She recalled the conversation between her brother Shangguan Mengren and Li Wuchang tonight, and her thoughts gradually spread.
Thinking of Li Wuchang's words explaining what happened to him, Meng Yao felt a burst of sympathy.
"Family, friends, dreams, habits, everything, how painful it must be. Isn't Brother Impermanence just like a newborn baby......"
She silently swore in her heart that she would help the man who had saved her twice for no reason to regain her past memories.
"Hmmm! Starting tomorrow, I'm going to travel the world with Brother Impermanence! ”
She thought that maybe taking Li Wuchang to see more things would stir up his memories.
At the same time, Meng Yao added in a whisper in her heart:
"It's definitely not like I want to hang out......"
Then, she continued to reminisce, remembering the words her brother had said about her in front of Li Wuchang.
The love sinus is first opened, the love sinus is first opened......
Shangguan Mengren, your whole family is in love!!
Recalling that Li Wuchang looked at her eavesdropping outside the door with strange eyes, Meng Yao was upset.
She suddenly got to her feet, her hands in the shape of a fist, and slammed her fist into the pillow behind her.
Damn it!
Shoot you!
After spending three minutes on emotional catharsis, Yaoyao calmed down.
This pillow is not her brother, it's a big deal to punch her crumb brother when we meet tomorrow morning. Yaoyao thought to herself.
After calming down, Meng Yao began to think crankily again:
"A person as good as Brother Impermanence, he must have had many friends before he lost his memory, right? There must be relatives who love him, have lofty ideals, and may have a very cute love ......"
At this point, her face froze.
Yaoyao suddenly remembered something.
Just yesterday afternoon, when she and her maid Xiaoqing sneaked to Fate Street to watch the triumphant return of the Free Army, although they still passed by the Free Army, they unexpectedly met Li Wuchang in the end.
At that time, he was followed by a very beautiful woman, who was brightly dressed, wearing a dress that seemed to have just been bought, and from time to time she would put her arms around Li Wuchang, just like a girl who was in love and often spoiled her lover.
If it weren't for being attacked by Dongfang Ying's men and losing consciousness later, Meng Yao would never have forgotten such an important matter.
She was curled up in the quilt and suddenly clenched her palms, looking slightly excited.
Who is that woman?!!
Brother Impermanence, didn't he say, did he lose his memory?
How could he still have a girl he knew?!
And...... She's so pretty!
That woman, no matter how you look at it, looks like his......
Yaoyao swallowed with difficulty, and a guess came to her mind.
Don't...... Could it be that Brother Impermanence has been cheating on me?
No...... He was so nice to me, there was no way he could lie to me......
But...... But who is that woman?
Many messy speculations lingered in Meng Yao's heart, making her mood unable to calm down for a long time.
Emotional, she almost couldn't hold back her urge to urinate, and when she reacted, she hurriedly walked out of the room and went to the courtyard.
..........
Outside the Shangguan Mansion, on a wall.
Because Shangguan Mengren had not sent someone to repair this wall for too long, the white wall fell off, leaving patches of mottled red bricks.
At this time, two graceful figures were lying on their stomachs, looking at the courtyard of the mansion sneaky.
They watched as Meng Yao hurriedly ran out of the room, and walked back after the convenience was over.
"Hanhan, you see I've said it all." Lin Qian, who had waist-length white hair, opened her mouth and smiled at her sister on the side:
"Your childhood playmate has had a good two years."
Lin Han, who also had white hair, but did not grow long, nodded and smiled:
"She's doing well, it's great."
"It's just, why hasn't she slept so late? I remember that she never fell asleep past ten o'clock. ”
"I don't know." Lin Qian replied casually, and then continued:
"Hanhan, if you miss Sister Yaoyao, miss your old life, and want to return to Yaoyao's side again, you can only continue to move forward with me."
Lin Han noticed that when Lin Qian was speaking, her eyes were unusually clear and her gaze was unusually firm:
"I also want to go back to when I was a kid, back to those carefree days."
"For the sake of those irretrievable comfortable times, I am willing to fight with my life to take it back from the hands of the surname Lu."
The person she was referring to was the current king of the Hope Kingdom, Luki.
Lin Han glanced at her deeply, and then, she bowed her head seriously:
"Hmm."
"Let's go back together, sister."
