Bloody Carnival

Chapter 118: I Really Love You (Part 1)

The time was just a little past eight.

The other examinees had just woken up from their nap. Some had just sat down on the sofa, some had just left the room and others were busy wracking their heads over the questions they had to answer.

The moment they heard the announcement, they continued as usual with what they were doing.

The shocking announcements over the past two days had shocked them until they had grown numb to it. Whenever they heard this name, they would just think:

[Oh…..he died aaaaagain. How many times will he die this time? Can they fix this bug already?]

Less than a few seconds later, all the examinees were stunned on the spot…..

Who did they say just died?

At the invigilator’s place, the reactions of the invigilators were different.

They had in fact also grown numb to the announcements, but this numbness had ended this afternoon.

Ever since they realised that this “You Huo” was Invigilator A, their mood had become complicated——-

On one hand, they hoped that the examination centre would be calmer and that the examinees would not be too ruthless to each other because in the end the ones that will be hurt would be they themselves.

But on the other hand, for some reason they also felt excited.

This dark rush of excitement was most evident during dinner time.

Everyone in the restaurant were making the same small action: Take a few bites and glancing at the big screen above their heads, take another few bites and once again looking at the big screen.

Dinner lasted from 5pm to 8pm. Even now, they were still eating.

In the end, 021 couldn’t stand it anymore: “What are they doing? Are they planning on staying in the restaurant until their hair turns white?”

“They’re all waiting.” 922 who related strongly helped explain, “They’re waiting for him to appear on the screen again. Afterall, he is the legendary A and was once their leader. Before they would feel a headache coming when they saw his name but now it had changed to excitement and expectation. You won’t understand.”

After saying that, he downed a glass of red wine.

The next second, he choked on the wine.

He suddenly realised that everyone here at this table had already grown accustomed to You Huo’s antics and no longer found it strange. As for the revelation that afternoon, he was the only one who had joined the other invigilators to check the records.

Gao Qi and Zhao Jiatong, and also 021 and 154, they had spent the entire afternoon in their own rooms and had only just come out earlier to have dinner, so they had no knowledge about this matter with A.

From 922’s perspective, he had accidentally revealed two big secrets:

You Huo is Invigilator A. This was something 021 and 154 should have no knowledge of.He knows that You Huo is Invigilator A. This was someone no one should have a knowledge of.

But after he pulled out a napkin to clean himself up and took a few more sips of red wine to calm himself down, he noticed……No one had shown any unusual reactions.

154 patted his back as 021 asked, “How can you choke even while drinking red wine?”

Zhao Jiatong asked if he wanted water while Gao Qi…..Gao Qi just watched the others help him and continued drinking his wine.

922: “?”

922: “???”

This reaction isn’t right?!

922’s mind was filled with questions. He sat there confused.

After a while, everyone on the table realised and froze.

While those around them were busy chatting, only their table was quiet.

Gao Qi placed down the bottle of wine he was about to pour and looked at Zhao Jiatong with a complicated look. Zhao Jiatong mouthed back “What are you looking at me for?” and poked at her food with her fork before glancing at 021 who sat opposite her. 021 on the other hand was staring at 922 with surprise while 922 was staring at 154.

154 who as at the bottom of the food chain swallowed a piece of lamb as he internally cursed himself out.

At this moment, a notice from the 197th examination centre appeared.

The notice on the screen had an effect on par to a droplet of water falling into a pot of hot oil. The relatively quiet restaurant suddenly burst into loud commotion, blowing away the awkwardness at this table.

“I knew it. I knew it would happen again!” An invigilator sitting at the table next to them commented.

“Yeah, sure enough.”

“He was the head invigilator after all……”

Someone even said regretfully, “There are only two notices this time?”

“After seeing four or five of them each time, it doesn’t feel right seeing only two. I think I should reflect on myself a little.”

All their attention was placed on the three words “Examinee You Huo” and they didn’t pay much attention to the rest of the notice.

It was only a moment later that someone exclaimed, “What the fuck?!”

“What is it?”

“You should look at the notices! Look at who died.”

Before they had the chance to have a closer look, the system spoke up.

A large exclamation mark appeared on the screen and the system’s voice sounded in the restaurant:

【NPC Shirley and Sali has died in the 197th examination centre. Examination in this centre has been terminated. Can invigilators responsible for this examinee take the examinee back immediately for punishment and wait for the official start of the second stage.】

Everyone fell silent for a moment before soon exploding with excitement.

***

At the same time in the 197th examination centre.

You Huo and the others buried little Shirley in the backyard and laid her to rest next to a small patch of daisies. Her parents had mentioned in the diary that this patch of daisy was something Shirley liked and requested to be grown.

The small, delicate flowers quivered in the wind for a moment before becoming still again.

It resembled a child who had finally fallen asleep after crying.

After the death announcement, Qin Jiu and Chu Yue finally escaped from their trance and, both feeling extremely tired, feel asleep on the sofa in the living room.

As You Huo pulled two sheets out from the guest room and covered the two of them up, the paper that had fallen aside went through some changes.

“What the hell does it want?” Yang Shu said unkindly.

She picked it up and took a look.

A zero had appeared next to the second question on the paper and the words “Question 3” had appeared.

But after about five minutes, another line was squeezed out: Examination error. Examination has been terminated. Question was not answered.

Yang Shu snorted and proceeded to pass the paper around.

Soon, several more lines appeared on the paper. The system was calculating the points from the first stage——

Under their united efforts, eight adults with normal IQ had only managed to answer two questions correctly, receiving a total of 18 points.

2 points were deducted for legibility and another 5 points was deducted for their bullying behaviour, resulting in a final score of 11 points.

Under the bright red 11, a familiar line appeared:

Due to rule violations, the invigilators have been notified. Invigilators 922, 154, 021 etc are on their way.

“Etc?” Yu Wen passed the paper to You Huo, “This is my first time seeing ‘etc’ after the invigilators. Brother, how many people do you think is responsible for us this time?”

“Don’t know.” You Huo answered, “Maybe seven or eight.”

There is a total of eight examinees here so even if it’s one on one, eight invigilators would be more than enough.

However, it later turned out that he had underestimated the word ‘etc’.

Ten minutes later, the doorbell sounded.

Yu Wen rushed over to answer the door and was left standing stupidly on the spot.

Outside the door, 154 was still expressionless as usual as he held a rule violation notice in his hand.

To his left was 922 and 021, and to his right was Zhao Jiatong and Gao Qi.

But this wasn’t the main point. The main point was behind him…..

A sea of heads stretched out endlessly into the distance!

Yu Wen was shocked speechless. It took him a moment before he could return to his senses and shout back into the house: “Brother!!! 30+ invigilators came to capture us!”

You Huo: “?”

Are they crazy?

154 who was outside the door rolled his eyes. The thoughts running in his mind aligned with You Huo’s.

He felt that the group of colleagues behind them were all crazy. As if they had never seen an examinee before, just a small rule violation sent them rushing out.

Clearly, they were the ones in charge of domestic examinees, but this group of people still insisted on joining.

Now look what happened. He was practically a tour guide.

“Quiet. If you have anything to talk about, talk about it when you get back.”

He turned around and sent out a warning to his embarrassing colleagues.

Unfortunately, it had no effect.

The people were stunned for a moment when they saw Yu Wen. They then started falling into discussion: “Why is it a child?”

“Who are you?

“Where’s A? Isn’t the 197th examination centre his? Why are you here?

More and more spoke and more and more questions were thrown out.

Yu Wen was too overwhelmed by all the questioning and could only remember the last question, “I climbed over the wall to get here.”

The invigilators were shocked. They finally understood how the 1/8 came about.

They had probably taken advantage of a loophole and managed to force eight of them into one place.

One of them spoke up: “I know, it’s the team card.”

Yu Wen didn’t know what to say.

Out of instinct as a student, his palms turned sweaty when he saw the crowd of invigilators.

“Yeah, the team card.” He nodded in response.

The invigilators became even more interested. There was once again a flurry of discussions.

Yu Wen could vaguely make out some.

“A is willing to team up?”

“I thought he would throw away the cards even if he has the chance to form a team.”

“I also thought that…..I wonder who he teamed up with?”

Probably because Yu Wen’s expression was filled with too much confusion, 922 couldn’t watch on.

He covered his mouth and explained, “They’re all your brother’s former colleagues.”

Yu Wen: “Huh?”

He then recalled Chu Yue’s words and understood: “Oh, so these are all those so-called first-generation invigilators?”

922 nodded, “You know about it?”

Yu Wen explained with surprise, “I heard a little about them but weren’t there only a few of them? They all coincidentally happen to be here?”

What supervising? This was pretty much a 35 people tour group and their main attraction was to take a look at their boss.

922 said, “Just take it as fate.”

Seeing that their talk was getting more and more ridiculous, 154 made no attempt to fix it up.

He shook the notice in his hand and read it as per usual procedures, “Unfortunately, about ten minutes ago we have received a notice of rule violation which had resulted to the termination of the first stage of this exam. You now need to come with us for a bit.”

This process was all too familiar for them.

Yu Wen turned around and called out, “Brother, we have to go to the invigilator’s place again! Have you packed up? The luggage and the food, we should still have some upstairs?”

154 felt more like a tour guide at this moment.

Under the gaze of more than thirty pairs of eyes, Yu Wen came out with a backpack while supporting the injured Old Yu.

Soon after that it was Shu Xue who supported her stomach acting like she was really pregnant and behind her was Wu Li and Yang Shu.

At this point, the invigilator’s reactions were still normal.

It was a group of old, weak, sick and handicapped. They couldn’t help but feel bad when they saw them.

Just when they thought Invigilator A was teaming up to help the needy, Chu Yue walked down the stairs yawning sleepily.

The crowd buzzed and fell into another discussion.

“Chu Yue???”

“Z?”

“Boss Chu?”

Titles both old and new were suddenly thrown at her.

This lady who had her mouth half open and beads of tears in the corner of her eyes was met with 30+ of her old colleagues.

Before she could react, the invigilators had once again stuck out their necks.

Chu Yue turned. You Huo had come out.

In a short moment, he had changed his clothes. The dusty and muddy shirt from before was thrown away and he was now wearing a light grey, round necked shirt that he had retrieved from the rest stop.

The colour was not as sharp as black or as mild as white. It made him look particularly pale, and particularly calm.

Although he wasn’t wearing a uniform, he wasn’t wearing an emblem on his arm and he wasn’t holding any meeting documents, when his gaze swept around at the others, the other invigilators couldn’t help but feel like they had returned back to the past.

They subconsciously straightened their backs like they once did in the past.

It was as if the accident hadn’t happened, A wasn’t removed, and they haven’t been exiled out overseas. The meetings they had would always happen abruptly; sometimes in the morning and sometimes in the afternoon. Every time, they would bring a long a pile of documents arguing while walking down the long corridor before sitting down at large round table to continue their arguments.

Before You Huo’s appearance they were still actively discussing and excited to no end about their reunion.

But now that he had appeared, they all fell silent.

Chu Yue wiped the corners of her eyes. Her physiological tears from yawning also carried a hint of emotion, “It’s you guys.”

“Yeah.” Someone answered, “It’s us.”

In the past there were close friends and polite colleagues amongst them. Some may have had some conflict in interests, some were extremely serious while some were more relaxed.

Their personalities were all very different, but they have worked together for a long time.

Sharing the same worries, the same restrictions and the same burdens.

They had lived in the same place seeing each other day in day out. They were pretty much the people who were most familiar with one another in the system.

But with this sudden reunion now, they realised that everyone felt a little unfamiliar.

Reunion~Bloody Carnival

Chapter 118: I Really Love You (Part 2)

Compared to Chu Yue, You Huo didn’t feel emotional at all.

He hadn’t recovered his memory completely so he didn’t have much of an impression of these people and could only feel an occasional sense of déjà vu the moment someone makes a habitual action.

From among the crowd, someone suddenly spoke: “Head Invigilator, Chu, long time no see.”

Yes, a long time indeed.

It was just a simple four words but You Huo realised from this that they were all people from his past.

Unfortunately, this emotional reunion didn’t last long.

Because the last person had appeared.

Qin Jiu who was completely unaware of the situation outside carried his bag downstairs sleepily not even bothering to look up.

When he reached the door, he reached out to hold You Huo’s shoulder: “Borrowing your shoulder. My eyelids are almost about to close.”

After saying that, he noticed that the situation wasn’t right.

The streetlamps outside were a little dazzling. He squinted his eyes and looked up and was met with more than thirty pairs of eyes staring back at him. How to describe their expressions…..

Rescuing one person from death was more meritorious than building a seven-storied pagoda for god.

154’s lips moved, breaking the silence, “Why don’t we all hurry back now?

He pulled Yu Wen and Old Yu along and led the way back to the invigilator’s place.

Seeing that they had passed through a field of grass northwest of them, several invigilators who were at the back of the group couldn’t help but comment, “What’s happening? Isn’t that 001? Are my eyes still working?”

Gao Qi and Zhao Jiatong were forcibly held back by them to answer their questions.

“Working. It’s 001.” Gao Qi answered with frustration.

“Why is he walking with his arm around A? Has he gone crazy or has A gone crazy?”

Gao Qi answered lifelessly, “Both are crazy.”

That invigilator snorted, “Aren’t we friends? Who was the one who used to accompany you to drink every day?”

Gao Qi just wordlessly smiled.

They hadn’t seen each other for a long time, and he had also deliberately avoided the systems core for several years so having a conversation like this with his old colleagues was a little difficult for him.

With just that short sentence, he was reminded of memories from the past.

Gao Qi seemed to have once again found the feeling from back then.

He no longer answered perfunctorily and nodded, “I remember. After drinking to much, you had to take me back half the time.”

“That’s right, that’s right. So tell me, what happened with 001 and A?”

Gao Qi: “Then I’ll tell you seriously. They no longer remember anything when they met and after taking a few exams together, their relationship is now……quite good.”

He paused and added, “No, extremely good.”

“I can’t believe it.” That invigilator still couldn’t believe his words, “How good is extremely good? Better than how we were back then? How you and A were? As good as that?”

Gao Qi: “……..”

You even have the nerve to compare.

He pinched his nose and answered vaguely, “Something like that. A little closer than A and I.”

That invigilator was even more incredulous, “That can’t be? Let’s not talk about A, I haven’t even seen 001 get close to anyone.”

Gao Qi: “Ah……”

He no longer knew what to say.

That invigilator asked another crazy question, “Then aren’t you jealous? Your friend was stolen.”

Gao Qi: “……..”

Jealous my ass.

***

The atmosphere at the invigilator’s place had never been this complicated before.

Firstly, it was because all the first-generation invigilators had reunited. This group of people had been involved in too many things and had a lot to talk about but due to certain reasons, they couldn’t talk about it in detail and could only exchange looks with each other.

And secondly, it was because of You Huo and Qin Jiu.

These two didn’t have a habit of sticking together acting intimate and, on top of that, with Gao Qi and the others giving the other invigilators a generalised explanation, all the other invigilators thought they had become good brothers.

This conclusion made You Huo and Qin Jiu unable to cry or laugh and it even made a particular group of invigilators feel suffocated.

Fortunately, the system made a timely appearance.

It said:

【Invigilators, please immediately punish the rule violating examinee!】

021 answered apathetically, “Coming.”

Although there were a lot of invigilators present, the ones truly responsible for domestic examinees were 021 and the others.

“Let’s go. The confinement rooms are on the third floor.” 021 said.

They were led up the staircase. The other invigilators didn’t follow and remained in the restaurant.

When You Huo turned the corner, he suddenly felt several eyes on him.

He glanced lightly over in the direction of the restaurant and was met with several pairs of eyes.

The lack of memory made these colleagues of his feel a little unfamiliar but, strangely, he was able to understand their emotions with just that one glance.

He could feel the restrained expectation from them, like they were waiting for him or someone to give them an order.

Perhaps it had been suppressed too long. Much too long.

This time there were enough confinement rooms.

It even reminded You Huo of the confinement room he used when he first met Qin Jiu in that small western styled building. With rooms lined along both sides of the corridor, it wasn’t a problem confining 20-30 examinees at the same time.

Having grown accustomed to sharing confinement rooms, he actually felt a little regretful now that he had the room to himself.

021 very quickly allocated the rooms. Like sorting out hotel rooms, she swiped her card and opened the rooms one after another.

“You enter this one.” Gao Qi led Chu Yue into the first one.

He then led Yu Wen to the second room.

This little student would always be very filial at a time like this. Compared to worrying about himself, he was more worried about Old Yu.

Upon reaching the third floor, Old Yu’s expression had been very poor.

You Huo glanced at him several times.

From his limited memory, although Old Yu seemed a little afraid of him, he was also not the same as the others.

This uncle of his wasn’t good a hiding his emotions so every time he saw him, fear and apprehensiveness would always instinctively appear on his face. But soon following that, he would use extreme enthusiasm and friendliness to cover it up.

You Huo could tell that he was trying very hard.

Old Yu had always been trying very hard. Despite feeling scared, he restrained himself and did all he could to be friendly.

Humans can be rather keen towards good and bad intentions.

Regardless of whether it was good or bad, it wasn’t something that one can pretend and act out. You Huo could sense awkward and clumsy kindness from an elder coming from Old Yu.

This was something he had never felt before from other elders and this was also the reason why he was willing to get along with this Yu father and son duo.

But ever since he found out about the relationship between him and the system, many of Old Yu’s reactions had become a little questionable.

It couldn’t be said that he had ulterior motives, but….He also seemed to have some form of unreconcilable differences with the system. It was as if the reason they were pulled in here wasn’t just because he was drunk and they got in by accident.

“Are you okay?” You Huo asked him.

Old Yu seemed to be a little distracted. When he heard this question, he flinched and laughed awkwardly, “It’s alright! Although I have been out of the army for many years, I shouldn’t put the army to shame.”

Yu Wen interjected, “We have actually been confined once before. It was when we ended up in the politics exam and accidentally violated a rule. I was okay. At most it was only a dream of doing the university entrance examination again and needing to redo all nine subjects and the bell going off before I could write anything for an essay question. As for mathematics, physics and chemistry, I couldn’t answer anything and could only fumble through but at least it wasn’t anything life-threatening. But for my dad! This Old Yu—–”

He pointed at Old Yu and said to You Huo, “When he came out last time, he scared me to death. I thought he had another heart attack. His face was as pale as a ghost. Look at his skin. Can you imagine how scary it was for it to suddenly turn so pale? His forehead was also covered in cold sweat when I wiped it for him.”

Being talked about like this by his own son, Old Yu had recovered a little.

He kicked Yu Wen and said, “Be more respectful. You shouldn’t talk bad about your own father. Xiao Huo, don’t listen to his nonsense.”

Old Yu explained, “It’s okay. Who doesn’t have something they’re scared of? Mine isn’t that terrible, it’s just unpleasant when I think of it. Don’t worry.”

He looked at You Huo and for a moment seemed to have something to say.

But he just looked up and sighed.

In the end, he patted You Huo’s shoulder and turned into a confinement room.

021 also sent Yang Shu in. After closing the door, she said to You Huo, “Let’s go. Go to the one ahead.”

As You Huo walked past Qin Jiu, at an angle unnoticed by the others, Qin Jiu briefly hooked his finger.

***

The confinement room here was the same as usual. Compared to the one in the basement, it was colder and more barren.

There was no toilet or shower, and there was no bed.

You Huo stopped at the table as 021 closed the door behind her.

She leaned against the door and asked in a low voice, “The invigilator’s arrangement this time is very strange. Have you noticed?”

“Do you even need to notice this?” You Huo said, “Chu Yue told me that almost all the early invigilators are here. How could it be a coincidence?”

“In fact, not all are here.” 021 said, “After checking carefully afterwards, there are a few missing.”

You Huo: “Which ones?”

021: “…….”

Would you recognise them if I tell you?

You Huo himself quickly realised this and changed his words, “Forget it. You have too many numbers and I can’t remember anyway.”

021 quickly continued, “It’s the ones that are missing that makes me find it strange.”

“What do you mean?”

“I have been checking things for the past few days and those invigilators…..Mm, how should I put it. From the clues I have gathered, they didn’t completely favour you when they were under you back then. Do you understand what I mean?”

You Huo frowned, “Are you sure?”

“I am.”

This surprised him.

“Let me ask you something.” You Huo spoke.

“Ask.”

“The invigilator arrangements. Are they organised by the system? Any rules?”

“According to the rules, it is random but that doesn’t rule out the possibility of someone manipulating things behind the scene. However…….” 021’s expression was complicated.

“This isn’t something anyone can do, right? It would have to go through the system in the end.”

“Yes!” 021 added, “This was what I thought was very strange! As far as I know, the only person who would have such authority would be the past you. I’m not familiar about the scope of authorities since I haven’t invigilated exams back then and the information is limited but if you couldn’t, then no one should be able to do it. So there’s another question——”

She continued seriously, “After you were removed, the system’s security level has strengthened a lot and no invigilators were given an authority has high as that afterwards. 001 could be considered the highest but he doesn’t have the power to do it, so who else could it be? I couldn’t think of anyone. Let me tell you a joke, I tried to figure it out all afternoon through the process of elimination. After a whole day, I finally reached an answer.”

You Huo: “What answer?”

“The system.” 021 herself laughed. “After crossing out name after name and ruling out everything that was impossible, the only thing that could do something like this was the system itself. Do you dare believe this?”

Unexpectedly, You Huo didn’t laugh nor did he make any ridiculing comments about the system.

He had actually nodded, “It’s not impossible.”

021, “Are you kidding me???”

You Huo wasn’t joking. He had just thought of something.

Chu Yue had said that he and Qin Jiu had left behind a backup plan if their second attempt failed; a system self-correcting program, but it had unfortunately gone missing.

As for what it looked like and what medium it was contained in – You Huo couldn’t remember. For the time being it wasn’t possible for him to figure out why and how it had gone missing.

021 glanced at the time, “Since you’ve noticed then I’ll head out. I’ll let you know if I find anything. There are too many invigilators this time and some like to watch the monitors so I can’t stay in here too long.”

“Wait, two more questions.” You Huo spoke up.

“Mn?”

“My uncle, the one in the room before called Old Yu, have you seen him before?” You Huo asked.

021 shook her head, “No, I just heard him mention earlier that he used to be in the army? There are quite a few people in your family with an army background.”

You Huo gently pursed his lips.

This change in his expression was too subtle and 021 was also in a hurry so she didn’t notice, “If I have met him before, I would find him familiar and I would definitely ask you about it immediately.”

That’s true.

You Huo felt that if 021 or Chu Yue or someone had met Old Yu before, they would definitely show it.

Since they hadn’t mentioned it, they probably really haven’t had any association with him.

He nodded.

021 said, “And what’s your second question?”

“About my memory.” You Huo said, “I heard that there was a way to recover memories erased by the system. Something about revoking an order to let all memory be instantly restored. Do you know where you can do it?”

021 was silent.

You Huo: “?”

This lady then spoke up, “Which lunatic told you this? I’ll beat that person up.”

You Huo raised a brow and didn’t hesitate to sell out his boyfriend, “Qin Jiu.”

021: “………Forget it. Can’t beat him.”

She knew it!

Who else would be crazier than him?

Oh, that’s not right.

There is another one. The one right in front of her.

You Huo said, “I don’t plan to try. Just asking.”

021, “You think I’m stupid? You shouldn’t be like this Mr Invigilator.”

You Huo pulled out the chair and sat down, “Really not telling me?”

Faced with this face, 021’s resistance started to waver.

This is why people shouldn’t be so good looking.

This was especially so for friends from the same camp. It makes it particularly easy for people to lose their principles.

But if you put 001 in that chair?

When 021 thought this, she very quickly realised with despair that 001 was also in the same camp as her. With that face, he would likely also succeed.

This lady who had delivered herself another blow said quickly, “I won’t talk about it in too much detail because I don’t feel right about it.”

You Huo: “That’s fine.”

021 said: “Do you remember the twin buildings in the invigilator’s district? The one specifically for punishments?”

“Yeah.”

“There is a total of three elevators; one for invigilators, one for examinees and one that is more special. I heard that—–” 021 emphasised once again, “I only heard about it and I’m not sure if it’s true since my scope of power is very limited compared to 001, but I heard that it is very important to the system.”

“Don’t people often talk about poking one’s lungs out? That place might be something like its heart or at the very least its lungs.”

After saying this, this lady quickly pushed open the door and slipped out of the room to avoid being tricked into revealed more information.

With 021 gone, the confinement room once again fell into silence.

You Huo leaned back on the chair and stared somewhere into the distance in thought. His mind was still thinking about the information from earlier.

The reason why a confinement room was called a confinement room was because of its special features.

It can always invade your thoughts, making you more emotional than usual and let you remember some past events. With this, it evokes out all kinds of terrible memories.

Before this, You Huo didn’t have anything to recall.

But for some reason, this time he would always remember the ruins from Qin Jiu’s confinement room.

Perhaps it was because he had stayed there several times and had assimilated?

Or perhaps the vague memories he had suddenly found some light?

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the darkness that filled the confinement room wasn’t just pure darkness and he didn’t simply dislike the feeling of being blind.

Under all that darkness, there should be something else.

For example, wire fencing in all four directions. For example, rusted machinery. For example, steel and cement pipes.

There should also be a large forest behind him and not far in front of him should be a faint smell of smoke.

There should be a person in front of him that got increasingly blurrier. From that person, he could smell some blood.

But when he reached out, he only came into contact with a soft and dry scarf.

He suddenly realised that he probably didn’t hate this darkness.

What he hated was the darkness endlessly engulfing and obscuring the figure in front of him.

He suddenly heard a voice coming from within the darkness. It was close, but it also sounded distant and indistinct.

The other persons voice was very tired but it also carried a hint of laughter. He said, “Big Invigilator, please lower your head. I have something to say.”

He probably bent down.

The other person’s finger reached over. His hand brushed against the side of his face and leaving behind some residual heat. He then fiddled with his earlobe, or perhaps twisted his earring.

He couldn’t remember the details and just remembered that there was a slight pain in his earlobe.

At that moment, he felt both anxious and sad.

Under the panic that he had never experienced before, he heard the other person say: “I really love you.”
