    "So, I choose to be a hero."

    Ms. Xu's words sounded like thunder in winter, resounding in the dark time and space.

    With the help of "Mother Chen", she successfully climbed the first ladder, turned around and slowly pulled up "Mother Chen" who had helped her.

    A few people moved slowly without the help of outsiders.

    Xiang Ya suddenly found out that even if she and Jia Jia didn't appear in front of them, these old ghosts would help each other and slowly find out the truth of their own death.

    She patted Jia Jia on the shoulder, "Jiajia, don't worry about me, go and help them."

    After speaking, Xiang Ya took the initiative to climb down.

    She struggled to climb the stairs, supported Ms. Xu with one hand, and went upstairs with her.

    Ms. Xu was a little surprised and said, "I thought you were too scared to approach me."

    Xiang Ya bowed his head and stepped up attentively, and asked lightly, "You actually noticed my intentions long ago."

    "Whether it's my test of your identity when I first met, or I deliberately ask 'Grandpa Huang' them later, you can see it all."

    "Yes." Ms. Xu admitted frankly.

    "Then why don't you speak up to stop the others from speaking?"

    Ms. Xu frowned and asked, "I originally wanted you to help, why should I stop it?"

    "I've lived for so many years, and I've been stuck here for a long time, all I want is a truth, but my memory is gradually wearing down..."

    Hearing the word "wear and tear", Xiang Ya looked up at Ms. Xu.

    'Worn? Could the appearance of several clones be related to memory wear? ' she thought to herself.

    "I need someone to help me. Only outside forces can stimulate me. However, no matter how many outsiders come in, no one finds me, they only see another me..."

    Hearing this word suddenly, Xiang Ya was taken aback—

    Is there another me?

    In other words, there is another Ms. Xu? And this Ms. Xu can be perceived by the sleeper...

    "It's Specter..." Xiang Ya said subconsciously.

    Only in this state can the tester see it, and the dream must have ghosts to operate.

    "What's your name?" Xiangya asked impatiently.

    "Xu Hongfang, my name is Xu Hongfang." Ms. Xu blurted out, and after speaking, she looked a little stunned.

    So her name is Xu Hongfang?

    She didn't know that her memory was supposed to fray, but she never abandoned her name, burying it deep in her consciousness.

    Xiang Ya, who noticed the other party's expression, figured out the key in an instant and overturned his previous guess.

    Ms. Xu and her three clones are not dangerous.

    Because the Ms. Xu in front of her is not the subject, the real subject is that Xu Hongfang who doesn't know where to hide and maintains a ghost state.

    Why are there so many clones born? Why does each avatar give people a friendly feeling?

    It was because Ms. Xu's consciousness was separated from the ghost on her own initiative - she didn't want to become a collection of negative emotions, or a crazy and paranoid monster.

    Ms. Xu is the humanity in Xu Hongfang's heart.

    In order to prevent the memory from being completely worn out and the consciousness to die out, Ms. Xu continued to separate and save herself. This is how Granny Chen, Grandpa Huang, Uncle Zhao and the others...

    Even if according to "Grandpa Huang", the new sick building is fake, it is actually equivalent to the "utopia" created by Ms. Xu. Every trace comes from everything in the old sick building, but it still protects Ms. Xu steadily. .

    Thinking of this, Xiang Ya's scalp tingled.

    She couldn't imagine how much pain she would experience and how much danger she would take when her memory was separated.

    If you are not careful, the memory will be lost.

    But even ordinary memories have the meaning of being preserved.

    Perhaps it is because of this that Ms. Xu, who has clearly separated her various consciousnesses, still pursues the truth of her death without hesitation and retrieves the worn-out memory.

    Self-help and self-destruction are repeatedly interspersed in Ms. Xu's behavior.

    Xiang Ya's brain was dizzy, she covered her head empathetically, and the sealed memory gate had a faint tendency to open again.

    She felt that she was suffocating, and she grabbed Ms. Xu's shoulder tightly as if she was asking for help.

    Ms. Xu was amazed how the little girl, who was fine when she asked her, became so uncomfortable in the blink of an eye.

    She quickly supported Xiang Ya with her backhand, and asked, "What's wrong?"

    Xiang Ya's legs twitched in severe pain, and she gradually slid down Ms. Xu's arm.

    A reddish erythema appeared again at the corner of the eyeball, but it subsided the next moment.

    The erythema appeared and disappeared repeatedly.

    When Jia Jia, who came back downstairs from the upstairs, saw this scene, she jumped down nervously and asked anxiously, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"

    Xiang Ya's gaze slowly moved towards Jia Jia, blood spots completely covered the entire eyeball, which was more serious than the out-of-control scene in the supervision room before.

    Her left eye was completely red, and her right eye was still clear.

    Jia Jia looked at her sister who looked strange in front of her, and a strong sense of crisis rose from her body.

    At this moment, she seemed to have become a prey, being followed by wild beasts.

    Such a sister is too scary, as if Xiang Ya can end the lives of all creatures in this building with just a slight movement of Xiang Ya.

    When Jia Jia had this thought in her mind, Xiang Ya also raised her hand and reached out to Jiajia's face.

    The cold palm came up, like ice on the face.

    Jia Jia always felt that in the next second, a palm would penetrate her cheek.

    But the palms were quickly put down.

    The blood spots slowly receded from the surface of the eyeball.

    "No, not all memories have the meaning of being preserved."

    "I only remember my parents who loved me, no misery, no pain."

    "I'm a normal person..."

    "I am not a monster."

    Xiang Ya didn't know what she was talking nonsense about, but the impact of Ms. Xu's incident caused her body's deepest consciousness to fluctuate all the time.

    However, if Yan Li was still in the supervision room at the moment, he would find that Xiang Ya's bracelet item did not absorb her blood this time.

    She degenerated without being controlled and fully awake.

    After the eyeball returned to normal, the horrific scene just now did not happen again.

    Jia Jia's eyes were tightly locked on Xiang Ya, she gently pulled Xiang Ya up, "Sister, are you okay?"

    She didn't ask why.

    Facing each other's questions, Xiang Ya was rarely silent.

    After a while, she said: "Jia Jia, don't tell anyone else about this for now, I need to deal with it."

    "Okay, Jia Jia will never tell anyone her sister's secret."

    He tried to pull out a smile.

    She looked at Ms. Xu, who had a cold face, but was still supporting her.

    She thought that the top priority was to solve the matter of Ms. Xu. She had already deduced the reason for the appearance of the clone, and now she had to deduce what happened to the old people who were continuously transported to the underground space and then returned to the old sick building.

    Xiangya went upstairs again.

    She asked, "Li Huiqi, you mentioned just now that the person is your new neighbor on the ninth floor. What happened to that person?"

    The topic changed very quickly, and he turned back to what he said before.

    Ms. Xu frowned, "That person is not familiar with me, but when the sanatorium said it would be demolished, he suddenly changed from strong opposition to agreement."

    "I don't like him. I pray to Buddha all day long to live a long life."

    "This kind of thing is very ridiculous. Wouldn't it make oneself more timid if you completely entrust your life and death to the gods?"

    ——I am afraid that I am not doing well enough to make the gods disgusted; I am afraid that good things are just a flash in the pan and cannot be enjoyed, but I have an uneasy heart, always worrying about whether the next good luck will come.

    That illusory god has instead become an existence that kidnaps living people.

    Ms. Xu saw too much, so she thought Li Huiqi was pathetic and ridiculous.

    Xiang Ya thought for a while, and then asked, "Have you seen him in a dream?"

    When asked about this, Ms. Xu started to be stunned again, and said, "He doesn't seem to be here... How could he not be there?"

    "Everyone should be there..."

    Xiang Ya understood these two sentences - this old man named Li Huiqi was neither in the old sick house nor in the new sick house created by Ms. Xu.

    Moreover, the mysterious man who appeared just now was in Li Huiqi's room or appeared as an elderly man.

    If you connect the miscellaneous ghosts and Gui Chi with the altar in the underground space, the old man who was transported in, and Li Huiqi, who is keen to believe in gods, the answer will gradually become clearer.

    Now it's still worse than the ghost Xu Hongfang.

    Jia Jia remembered that there was another important thing she forgot to tell her sister. Xiangya had made too much noise just now. She patronized him and almost forgot to tell her.

    When several people were about to board the 8th floor, she quickly said: "Sister, the connection between the 8th floor and the 9th floor is full of old people's bodies."

    Xiang Ya heard the words and accelerated the speed of going upstairs. "Mother Chen" and the others were already standing at the entrance of the stairs.

    Several people looked up at the heights with pale faces, and when they heard Ms. Xu's footsteps, they all looked over at the same time.

    As soon as "Uncle Zhao" saw Ms. Xu, as if someone had pressed the emotional release key, he suddenly squatted down with his head in his head in panic.

    "Let's go, I don't want to stay here, leave quickly! If you don't leave, you will die!"

    Ms. Xu walked straight to "Uncle Zhao" and dragged him up, with a serious tone: "I'm standing here, who can let me die!"

    "Mother Chen" and "Grandpa Huang" didn't have the same ease on their faces. They said in unison, "No, I'm already dead/I'm the only one left, I can't escape..."

    Ms. Xu's fierce expression froze, and she turned back and stared at her companions along the way.

    "What are you talking about? I'm the only one left to die, isn't everyone fine?!"

    "Mother Chen" smiled bitterly, she pointed to the corpse hanging on the wall, "It turns out that 'I' has died many times, and I can feel that they are all me."

    "You haven't felt it yet when you came here? You are also me, and he is also me." She pointed to "Grandpa Huang" next to her.

    Xiang Ya's heart froze.

    'Oops. ’

    She hurriedly ran towards Ms. Xu, fearing that something bad would happen.

    But Ms. Xu slowly put down her palm, her expression flashed through confusion, trance and anger... In the end, all the emotions converged into her body, and she looked at the three of them blankly.

    "It's all here, you don't want to find the truth?"

    she was asking herself.

    "Mother Chen" and "Grandpa Huang" smiled, and their expressions returned to their usual smile.

    "We've been supporting it for so long, isn't it just for that hope..." "Mother Chen" said warmly.

    "Our strength, don't be absorbed into that person again."

    "You let us go back to you."

    The author says:

    "Mother Chen" was the first to wake up. If you read the article carefully, you will find that in Chapter 53, when a few clones woke up in the underground space, only Granny Chen subconsciously said the word "we". She woke up faster than others, but in order to retrieve her memory, she had to return to Ms. Xu with other friends.

    In addition, the release time of Mo Xinxin and Zhu Jia is about to come. The next chapter will officially start. To mention a little, this dungeon is more inclined to Ms. Xu's self-redemption, so there are less plots about Yaya searching for clues, more about her Arrange Ms. Xu's words to deduce the truth.
