…… There is no such disease in the world!

How so?

Sluggish, until the last touch of sunset outside the window fell, Feng Bin clenched his fists hard, suppressed his doubts, and directly booked a high-speed rail ticket to a neighboring city.

As much as he managed to keep saying that Shi Youqing was dead, what he saw before leaving the dungeon was just a forcible association under mental confusion, after all, there was nothing impossible for the deceased's belongings to be taken away by the monsters in the dungeon, as for catching butterflies...... Maybe he's the only one who thinks so, right?

But there seemed to be a voice in his heart saying: "His wish is still there, if he comes out, he will definitely go." ”

【? The author has something to say]

The next chapter will return to the perspective of Qingqing!

Chapter 13: Reality

◎ "Rain or shine. ”◎

On a bus to downtown Jicheng, a pale young man leaned his head against the window, his eyes closed tightly, and his breathing was slightly rapid.

This is an old-fashioned bus from the countryside to and from the city, and the woman who collects the ticket noticed his abnormality in front of him, and hurriedly walked over and shook his shoulder: "Hey, hey! Lad...... Wake up, are you feeling unwell? ”

The eyelashes fluttered, and the closed eyes suddenly opened.

At the same time, the woman was startled by the pair of amber pupils, and she didn't know if she had seen it wrong, and for a moment, she actually felt that there were countless purple-black plants surging in the pupils of the other party's eyes......

"How...... What's wrong? The young man sat up straight with his grip on the handrail and looked up at her in a trance.

"That...... You're not uncomfortable, are you? Seeing that you were gasping all the time, I thought ......"

"It's all right," he said, "it's just a nightmare...... Thank you for waking me up. ”

The woman waved her hand and said it was okay, scratched her head and left.

On both sides of the bus are endless fields, and the passengers on the bus are enthusiastically taking pictures with their mobile phones, and several old ladies and grandfathers are still clapping their hands and singing.

A pleasant return trip.

Shi Youqing lowered his head and looked at his hands calmly.

It's the human hand.

It took him a while to pull away from the nightmarish memories and turn on his phone, trying to find the taxi app he used before entering Chenggu Town.

…… Without that software, on the contrary, the record of the payment to the driver of the private car that evening somehow became the record of the ticket purchase of a bus company that was on the same bus he was on at this time.

The passengers in the back chatted about the interesting deeds of this vacation in the countryside, and Shi Youqing listened carefully.

It turned out that the place where the bus had gone before was just a very popular tourist resort under the city, and it had nothing to do with Chenggu Town.

And all the trajectories of his trip to Chenggu Town have been erased.

Shi Youqing stared at the blue floating frame in front of him and furrowed his brows.

If it weren't for this, he might have really thought he was just dreaming.

[Black World Dungeon: The Secret of Chenggu Town]

[Game Progress: 100%]

[Pickup Reward: 5 Black Pieces]

[Do you want to review the background of the dungeon story?] 】

He clicked "Yes".

In an instant, those images rushed into my mind like a waterfall.

At the end, Shi Youqing looked at the time of his watch, and only three seconds had passed.

The background of the story is roughly the same as he speculated.

Shi Youqing closed his eyes again, put his hands in his pockets, and this time, his fingertips touched something.

Slippery, cool, round stuff.

He grabbed them one by one and took them out, exactly five black pieces.

When he played Go with his mother, he was mostly the one who held black, and he played black chess against his mother back and forth, no matter whether he won or lost, he always felt very happy to be able to play like this.

As he rubbed the black pieces, the mechanical sound of the system sounded in his ears again:

"Black and white are the key props to the final dungeon, please keep it properly, you can put it directly into the system's backpack, but after putting it, unless it is required for the final clearance, it cannot be taken out, but this can 100% ensure the safety of the chess pieces. Of course, players can also keep their pieces in the real world or carry them with them, and although there is a great possibility that they will be stolen, snatched and cheated, they may also be able to trade the pieces in exchange for more useful information or clues when needed. ”

Shi Youqing didn't think about it: "All five black chess pieces are put into the system backpack." ”

Immediately afterward, a dialog box floated out asking him to confirm.

He pressed "OK".

The five black pieces in his hand disappeared out of thin air.

There is an additional [backpack] option on the hovering frame, click on it, and there are exactly 5 black pieces displayed inside.

Shi Youqing unscrewed the thermos cup, took a sip of water, and looked out the window.

Unconsciously, thinking of Jiang Xiaodou's immature face again, the boy looked at himself and said, "Are you sure you want to find the truth?" ”

Shi Youqing continued to look at the distant scenery outside.

He knew he wasn't supposed to be human, but he didn't know what it was.

Chenggu Town is a place that only exists in the game, but my mother said that it was their hometown.

…… At that time, he should have died at the hands of those monsters, but when all the monsters approached, they showed a look of pain and fear, and wanted to leave, as if they were invisibly shackled by something......

It was like a dream, but he knew it wasn't a dream, it was a fact he had never touched.

He seemed to have become something terrible, but he didn't feel weird at the time, as if that was what he was.

And then...... He woke up.

*

At half past one in the afternoon, the bus arrived at the bus station.

Shi Youqing took a taxi home, everything in the house was the same, four bedrooms and two living rooms, clean and tidy, and my mother's bedroom and studio were still empty, without any signs of anyone coming back.

He went to look for the newspaper that had been sorted out before, and when he saw it, his whole face changed.

hurriedly spread out all the newspapers that had published the missing person notice, but all the places where the mother's photos were originally printed became poems and jokes submitted by readers......

I continued to look for the missing person notice that had been printed and pasted before, but I only found a bunch of blank A4 paper.

Turn on your computer and send out posts and stories that are looking for people...... All gone.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

He turned his head slowly, almost running over, but when he opened the door, he saw not the disappeared mother.

Aunt Li next door looked at him in surprise: "Why are you panting so much?" You okay? ”

“……”

"Youqing, you've been ...... lately"

"Aunt Li," he couldn't help asking, "have you seen my mother come back these days?" ”

"Huh?" The other party's eyes were full of doubts, "What are you talking about?" Haven't you always lived alone? As he spoke, he glanced around the room a few times, "Your mother has come to see you?" I haven't heard you mention your family before, and I thought there was a conflict......"

“…… Alone? ”

"That's right, two years ago, you stayed here alone with your luggage, saying that you were recuperating from your ill health...... The last time I heard that you were hospitalized, everyone felt sorry for you. But you are too polite, and don't let everyone help, they are all nurses, and they stay at home alone after being discharged from the hospital, and I still think it's strange to see you go out with a bag a few days ago, you said that you don't have to go to school, and your health is not good, why do you have to travel during the peak holiday season, and suffer more......"

“……”

Listening to Aunt Li, who used to be very good with her mother, saying that her mother did not exist at all, Shi Youqing could only grasp the doorknob and try her best to maintain a standing posture.

After Aunt Li left, he called the police station where he had reported the case, and replied without exception...... There is no such person as mother Shiwen at all, let alone a missing report.

…… It sounds like a schizophrenic mother's fantasy.

But Shi Youqing knows very well that her mother exists, not fiction, not imagination, but reality!

When he was very young, his first memory was that his mother led him through many roads.

It's not fake!

For example, there are still a lot of women's clothes in my mother's bedroom; For example, my mother's studio is mainly used to deal with post-photography, but he doesn't know how to shoot professionally and post-production; Like what......

Shi Youqing continued to look for evidence of her mother's existence, and in the middle of the busyness, the doorbell rang again.

He ignored it, stooped down and crawled into the huge closet full of clothes, trying to find a few long hairs inside...... Just find ...... Just find ......

The doorbell rang continuously, harshly.

Shi Youqing withdrew from the closet, his clothes and hair were a little messy, but he didn't have any intention to tidy up at this time, and went over to open the door with a stinky face.

This time, it was a tall man standing outside the door. Shi Youqing is about one meter seven or eight tall, and he can't be said to be short in the crowd at all, but in front of this man, he still has to raise his head slightly.

This man...... It won't be 1.9 meters, right?

The man pulled the suitcase, wearing a hearty dark sportswear, with short black hair, eyebrows and straight eyebrows, and a sharp silhouette like a sculpture, those dark black eyes quickly turned away when he saw him, and the eyes that were sharp a second ago suddenly lost focus.

The young man inside the door had messy hair, his beautiful eyes drooped, and his gaze was projected straight over: "Who are you?" "The voice was cold and a little irritable.

"Hello," the man looked at him again, his dark eyes drooping down, as if embarrassed, completely inconsistent with Nasen's cold voice, "Some time ago, Ms. Shi Wen hired me to take care of you. ”

Shi Youqing's eyes widened.

The other party took out another document: "This is the contract I signed with her......"

Shi Youqing dragged the person in without thinking about it, and then picked up the contract and looked at it eagerly.
