Chapter 135 True and False

On this day, accompanied by Zuozi, Lin Qiushi ushered in an irresistible slumber, but when he woke up, it was a new day. Lin Qiushi sat beside the bed, looking at the bright sunlight shining through the window. Under the shroud of light, everything looked hopeful.

Lin Qiushi sat up from the bed and felt extremely tired. After washing up casually, he carried his luggage and set out on the road again.

This time, the flight was not delayed, and Lin Qiushi arrived in the city where his home was on time. After the flight landed, he was not in a hurry to go home, but took a taxi to another place - the school mentioned by Ruan Nanzhu in the text message.

That school is in the suburbs and is a high school.

In May, it happened to be near the end of the semester and the college entrance examination, and the students were studying intensely. Taking advantage of the guard's unpreparedness, Lin Qiushi sneaked into the school through the back door and saw the whole picture of the school.

Many years ago, Ruan Nanzhu entered the door here. Looking at the neat teaching building in front of him, Lin Qiushi thought that he and the young Ruan Nanzhu saw the same scenery. At that time, Ruan Nanzhu was just a child, and he would definitely be very helpless when he first entered the door, but fortunately, he met a good enough guide, and also met a lot of friends in Obsidian who benefited a lot from it. It's been a bumpy road, but it's finally here.

Lin Qiushi was walking slowly in the school. Although he knew that Ruan Nanzhu and him were in different time lines at this time, there was no possibility for the two to meet, but he had a magical illusion, as if separated by time and space, They were standing in the same spot, looking at the same scenery.

I just don't know what the school looks like at night.

Lin Qiushi was a little tired after running around for two days. He found a corner of the cafeteria at random, sat down there, and fell asleep on the table.

When he woke up, the sun was already in the west, Lin Qiushi's eyes were tired, and he knew that the night like a hundred ghosts would come again.

He kept running for his life every night, even his body couldn't take it anymore, but some things couldn't be stopped when he felt tired. Lin Qiushi didn't want to die, so he still had to cheer up and face what was coming next. everything of.

He hurriedly left the school dragging his luggage and returned to his home before dark.

In fact, Lin Qiushi really wanted to stay in the school to meet Ruan Nanzhu, but he was afraid that he would not only bring him, but also the ghosts that came with him.

The pressure on Ruan Nanzhu was already big enough, and Lin Qiushi really didn't want to cause him more trouble, so he could only endure the thoughts of Ruan Nanzhu in his heart and choose a more secure way.

Sitting on the sofa of his own house, Lin Qiushi was holding chestnuts in his arms, thinking about the cluelessness in his mind. From the moment he entered this door until now, he had no clue about the key. As if the key was something that didn't exist at all, he couldn't get out of here at all.

So the word "unsolved" on the clues, does it hide other meanings? Lin Qiushi closed his eyes, leaned on the sofa, and thought quietly.

This kind of thinking was fruitless. The bizarre world at night seemed to be tangled up in a tangle of threads, and there was no clue.

Chestnut fell asleep in Lin Qiushi's arms, breathing evenly. Its warm body temperature was transmitted to Lin Qiushi through the clothes, which made Lin Qiushi's mood much calmer.

The room was very quiet, only the ticking of the second hand, the TV was on, but the volume was turned to the minimum, Lin Qiushi looked at the silent picture in front of him, waiting for the night to come.

At twelve o'clock, the clock chimed twelve times on time.

Lin Qiushi was sitting at home, and there was a strong scorched smell in the tip of his nose. The smell was so strong that he couldn't help coughing lowly. The next moment, Lin Qiushi instantly reacted. This was the smell of fire, which he had smelled inside the door.

Realizing what happened, Lin Qiushi rushed into the toilet and covered his nose and mouth with a wet towel. Then he turned around and opened the door to leave the house. As soon as the door opened, thick smoke poured into his room. Lin Qiushi rushed to the corridor and saw that a raging fire had already ignited in the corridor, and the fire was spreading in his direction.

The towel on Lin Qiushi's face blocked the thick smoke and dust coming from his face, giving him a chance of life. He turned around and rushed into the fire escape next to him, heading downstairs.

"Cough cough, cough cough." There was a violent coughing sound in his mouth, and Lin Qiushi's eyes were smoky and constantly shed tears. to a smoke-free floor.

Finally able to take a breath, Lin Qiushi leaned against the wall and gasped for fresh air, but when he took his breath and raised his head to see the surrounding environment clearly, he couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air - he Next to the corridor where it is located, there are dense mirrors.

Pieces of mirrors covered all the original walls of the corridor, and Lin Qiushi saw his embarrassed figure in the mirror.

Seeing these mirrors, Lin Qiushi immediately remembered the door he had entered and the fire that broke out inside the door.

A strong sense of danger hung in Lin Qiushi's heart. He immediately felt that something was not right here. He turned around and wanted to leave, but when he returned to the fire escape again, Lin Qiushi found that the door of the fire escape was closed. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't do anything. Pull it away again.

Knowing that this road would not work, Lin Qiushi could only reluctantly choose to give up. He turned back to the corridor, looked at the mirror in this corridor, and shook his smoked and somewhat hypoxic head to make himself more awake.

In the dimly lit corridor, Lin Qiushi's shadow reflected in the mirror everywhere. On the cold mirror, Lin Qiushi's appearance is layered, giving the illusion that the space here is extremely huge.

Lin Qiushi stopped walking forward. At the end of the dark corridor, he saw two figures who appeared at an unknown time. It was a mother and daughter holding hands. Their bodies had been scorched, showing a terrifying black charcoal color. The girl was holding an unrecognizable doll in her hand, and her black eyes stared at Lin Qiushi quietly. There was no emotion in those two pairs of eyes, only a dead silence like a deep lake.

The corridor with only one road could not turn back. Lin Qiushi standing in the middle of the corridor seemed to be trapped in a cage, but the worst thing was that the mirror around Lin Qiushi also began to change.

The mirror began to twist like water waves, and soon Lin Qiushi realized that the change was due to the high temperature, and flames appeared at the end of the corridor-the scorched mother and daughter, and then began to move towards the place where Lin Qiushi was. The direction spreads rapidly.

He was about to be burned to death - Lin Qiushi, who was clearly aware of this, turned around and wanted to flee, but the speed of the flames was extremely fast, and his back even felt the scorching temperature of the flames.

At this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out from the mirror around him, grabbed Lin Qiushi's arm, and dragged him into the mirror abruptly, successfully avoiding the flames.

Lin Qiushi was stunned when he was caught in the mirror, until he saw two familiar faces in front of him. They were Zhuo Feiquan and his sister Zhuo Mingyu, who often came to visit Obsidian.

"Long time no see." Zhuo Feiquan looked at Lin Qiushi condescendingly, and greeted Lin Qiushi in a light tone.

Lin Qiushi was still in shock, barely stood up from the ground, and said, "...Long time no see." He thought he was dead, but he was unexpectedly saved by Zhuo Feiquan.

"Count what my sister owes you before." Zhuo Feiquan said.

In the door with people as the mirror, Zhuo Mingyu came out of the mirror a few seconds in advance, causing Lin Qiushi to be locked in the bedroom, and then if Ruan Nanzhu used Zhuo Feiquan's life to force Zhuo Mingyu to enter the mirror again , I am afraid that Lin Qiushi's life will be explained in that door.

Lin Qiushi said, "Are you in there too?"

"Of course." Zhuo Feiquan said, "Everyone who died in the door is inside."

"Then have you seen Ruan Nanzhu?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"He? Why should I go to see him." Zhuo Feiquan obviously didn't like Ruan Nanzhu, and his tone was very rude, "I don't owe him anything."

Lin Qiushi looked helpless. Entering the mirror world for the first time, he looked around and saw the scene around him. He was still standing in the corridor, but all the scenes were completely reversed. And through the mirror next to it, you can see what happened in reality. The corridor where he stood before has been completely engulfed by the flames and turned into a charred black. It is conceivable that if he was still standing there just now, people may have been charred.

"Let's go first, don't stay here too long." Zhuo Feiquan said, "That thing can enter the mirror."

Lin Qiushi nodded and followed Zhuo Feiquan into the fire escape in the mirror.

"We took you downstairs, remember to stay away when you see the mirror." Zhuo Feiquan said, "That thing will definitely attack you again."

Lin Qiushi said, "You came out of the tenth door?"

Zhuo Feiquan nodded, his attitude towards this was quite calm, and he even glanced at Zhuo Mingyu who had been standing behind him and had not spoken much, "It's a good thing." At least he can be in the world inside the door with her.

"Are you still brother and sister here?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"Well." Zhuo Feiquan said, "It's brother and sister, although I don't remember what happened inside the door during the day... But it's a good thing not to remember.

Lin Qiushi fell into silence, and the three went all the way down to the bottom of the building. When they were about to part, Lin Qiushi suddenly said, "Is this real?"

Zhuo Feiquan turned to look at Lin Qiushi, and asked what Lin Qiushi meant with his eyes.

"Are you also real?" Lin Qiushi asked.

Zhuo Feiquan laughed, and he said, "If we weren't real, would you be able to live until now?"

Lin Qiushi was silent.

"At least for us, this place is real." Zhuo Feiquan said, "It is probably a kind of compensation for us..."

When he was talking, Zhuo Feiquan had already reached the floor below. He took Lin Qiushi into a toilet casually, and then pointed to the mirror in the toilet and said, "Go out."

Lin Qiushi stretched out his hand towards the mirror, and then felt a pull, pulling himself out of the world in the mirror. He returned to reality, but the surrounding environment was still not very friendly - it was still full of the smell of smoke, and there were burn marks on the walls next to him.

Lin Qiushi looked at the two brothers and sisters in the glasses and thanked them softly.

Winding down the stairs, trying to get out of here quickly.

But things are obviously not as simple as he thought. Lin Qiushi was clearly walking down, but he found that the number of floors in front of him was getting bigger - he was actually climbing upstairs, and the higher he went, the more intense the coke. The stronger the smell, his footsteps stopped, but his ears caught some kind of sound.

This voice made the cold sweat on Lin Qiushi's back instantly burst out, and even stopped breathing for a moment.

That's right, he heard Ruan Nanzhu's voice. Ruan Nanzhu seemed to be roaring something angrily at someone, a tone Lin Qiushi had never heard before.

"Your brother has to die here in one minute!!" Lin Qiushi heard this clearly, he walked to the fire door, and through the small window, he saw what happened on the other side of the door.

Ruan Nanzhu stood in the corridor and said what Lin Qiushi heard to Zhuo Feiquan and Zhuo Mingyu. His expression was extremely gloomy, and there was a strong killing intent in his black eyes.

"I wish you a liar who has turned his back on you!!" Zhuo Feiming roared angrily.

"Liar? Are you embarrassed to call me a liar? You actually came out five minutes ahead of schedule. If he dies here, you all have to be buried with him—" Ruan Nanzhu countered with a sneer.

After hearing the content of the conversation between the two, Lin Qiushi finally realized that this was what happened inside the door.

At that time, he thought it was because he was one step behind and not enough time, but later he found out that Zhuo Mingyu had come out of the mirror ahead of time, causing him to be locked in the door with the key.

Later, Ruan Nanzhu rushed into the bedroom and rescued him from the danger of being burned to death.

Everything in front of him seemed to be a replay of the memory. Lin Qiushi saw the moment when the mother and daughter disappeared at the end of the corridor, Ruan Nanzhu ran wildly, rushed into the bedroom again, and hugged himself out of a coma.

Then they escaped along the fire escape, right? Although Lin Qiushi had no memory of these things, after he recovered, Ruan Nanzhu told him everything that had happened inside the door.

In this short period of time, Ruan Nanzhu's body was severely burned, and then he hugged Lin Qiushi and headed towards the fire escape.

Everything seemed normal until the four of them reached the door of the fire escape.

A raging flame suddenly appeared in the surrounding mirror, blocking the way of the four of them. Ruan Nanzhu's body caught fire and fell down screaming. Lin Qiushi, who was in his arms, was also drowned by the flames.

Lin Qiushi, who was standing outside the door watching all this, widened his eyes. He didn't expect this scene at all. Ruan Nanzhu's body was on fire, and he kept screaming and rolling on the ground. The sharp scream was like a heavy hammer hitting Lin Qiushi's chest. He almost couldn't help but want to rush into the corridor and pounce on Ruan Nanzhu. put out the flames on his body.

"It's all fake, it's all fake." Lin Qiushi didn't dare to look any further, he grabbed his chest, gasped for breath, his body slowly bent down, and almost fell to the ground softly. However, although he could not see the scene in front of him, Ruan Nanzhu's screams could still be heard.

"Ah, ah, it hurts, ah ah..." He rolled in the flames, his voice gradually weakened, and he called his name, "Qiu Shi, Qiu Shi... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."

"Fake, fake, all fake." Lin Qiushi covered his ears and didn't want to listen any more. He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and would rush in.

Ruan Nanzhu's voice finally stopped, but Lin Qiushi was already sweating profusely. He trembled slightly, straightened his waist slowly, and saw everything in the corridor through the small window.

There were four charred corpses lying in the corridor, two of which were hugging tightly. Lin Qiushi judged from the only remaining clothes that they were Ruan Nanzhu and his corpse.

They died together.

The severe pain in his head, Lin Qiushi covered his face with his hands, and repeatedly told himself that what was in front of him were hallucinations.

However, this is not the end. The charred corpse began to shake slowly, and it slowly climbed up from the ground. The corpse had been burned into the appearance of a skeleton, and the appearance was horrifying. He opened his mouth and said Ruan Nanzhu's voice again: "Qiu Shi."

"Nanzhu." Lin Qiushi was out of breath.

The corpse slowly walked in his direction. Across the glass, one person, one ghost and four eyes were facing each other. The person in front of him couldn't see Ruan Nanzhu's handsome appearance at all. There was only horror left. Lin Qiushi said, "Actually, don't you remember?"

Lin Qiushi took a step back.

"Don't you remember?" The dead Ruan Nanzhu looked at Lin Qiushi with his dark eyes, "Don't remember that the four of us died here?"

Lin Qiushi said, "You are talking nonsense! We are not dead! You fucking want to lie to me!"

Ruan Nanzhu said: "But do you remember what happened after that?... Those memories are all made up by me to deceive you." His voice was full of sadness, "We died inside the door, but you don't remember. already."

Lin Qiushi really doesn't remember, he doesn't remember how he left the door, but that doesn't mean he will believe what the person in front of him is saying.

"I was burned to death in order to save you." Ruan Nanzhu said, "Then we appeared in the world we are in now, and I made up a new memory for you..."

Lin Qiushi didn't speak, he took out his mobile phone and quickly sent a text message. But there was no reply from the other end of the text message, maybe the real Ruan Nanzhu is encountering something important...

"The person on the other end of the phone is me." Seemingly noticing Lin Qiushi's actions, Ruan Nanzhu on the other side of the door raised his mobile phone and grinned at Lin Qiushi, "Of course I won't get back to you in time. already."

"No—" Lin Qiushi shuddered when he heard this. He quickly pulled out the address book and was about to call Ruan Nanzhu, but his movements suddenly stopped.

He can't do this. If Ruan Nanzhu is really at a critical moment, the phone that suddenly rings on his body will definitely kill him.

Lin Qiushi used his last self-control to stop himself from dialing the number. He said, "Don't try to lie to me! How could you be Ruan Nanzhu!"

"Why not?" The man at the other end of the door showed a sad expression. "Or, it's just that you don't want to accept this cruel fact?"

Lin Qiushi gritted his teeth and did not speak.

"Haven't you already begun to doubt it?" he said, "doubt everything here, doubt the authenticity of everything, how can it be such a coincidence that they appear, they will save your life every time you come to a critical juncture... Do you know why? Because all this is a dream controlled by yourself." He turned around and pointed to the corpse lying motionless on the carpet, with a terrifying smile on his face, "You are already dead, Lin Qiushi. ."

Lin Qiushi knew that he shouldn't be shaken, but he couldn't completely control some emotions. As the people in front of him spoke, many terrifying thoughts really ran through his mind.

Lin Qiushi said, "Shut up, I won't believe you." He reached out and wiped his face, then turned and left.

Ruan Nanzhu, who was behind him, began to cry lowly, and he said, "Qiu Shi, don't go, I'm so scared alone."

Lin Qiushi took a breath.

"I'm so scared when I'm alone in the door, don't leave me alone." He said, "It's so dark here, I'm the only one alone, you can talk with me, I'm really scared..."

Lin Qiushi took a deep breath, but calmed down. He didn't believe that Ruan Nanzhu would beg him in such a tone.

"You are not Ruan Nanzhu." Lin Qiushi said, "You are not Ruan Nanzhu." He seemed to say this to himself and repeated it several times.

"Lin Qiushi, Lin Qiushi, Lin Qiushi." The people inside the door were still calling Lin Qiushi's name with the same voice as Ruan Nanzhu.

Lin Qiushi went down the stairs with an expressionless face. This time, the number of the stairs did not appear again. Lin Qiushi went down and finally reached the bottom of the apartment building. It's just that Ruan Nanzhu's cry echoed in his ears. Lin Qiushi kept checking the text messages on his mobile phone along the way, but he didn't receive any more letters from Ruan Nanzhu until he arrived at a seemingly safe place. .

Is he okay now? What's going on over there? Will there be danger? Lin Qiushi's mind was in a mess, and even some thoughts rose up secretly. Isn't that person upstairs really Ruan Nanzhu? If it's really Ruan Nanzhu... Then didn't he abandon him.

Uncertain, always in the most painful state, Lin Qiushi stood downstairs for a long time, he thought there would be ghosts continuing to attack him, but the community was unusually calm.

However, this calmness made Lin Qiushi's thinking more confusing. He stared at the mobile phone, wishing to travel to the other side through the radio waves to confirm the safety of Ruan Nanzhu, and really see that he was still alive.

But all this is just his extravagant hope. Lin Qiushi thought desperately, if something happened here, they couldn't even die together...
