Kaleidoscope of Death

Zhong Chengjian's sudden outburst caused the entire team to fall into a depressed mood.

The woman's body was chopped into messy pieces by Zhong Chengjian, and blood and flesh remnants covered the entire kitchen.

He was also covered in blood, covering his face with his hands and whimpering, seemingly unable to hold on any longer.

The looks on everyone's faces were very complicated, while Tang Yaoyao was standing by the sink, trying to clean up the blood stains on her body.

"What should we do?" Zhong Chengjian said, "I'm not going to go on." Zhong Chengjian said, "I didn't want to kill her, just a moment of anger..."

"Kill it and kill it." Those words were said too many times, making Zhang Xing Huo feel worse, and he said, "It's not the real world anyway, and there's no police to arrest you, so what are you crying for."

"Right, right, this isn't reality." After such a reminder from Zhang Xinghuo, Zhong Chengjian came to a sudden realization, a smile appeared on his face, "Just go out, no one will know that I've killed anyone, right."

Everyone was silent when they heard this, but Tang Yaoyao laughed mockingly, apparently all the old people thought the same thing, indeed it would be fine if they went out, but only if they could go out ah.

While everyone was talking, Lin Qiushi noticed two more figures swing by the door, and although he didn't look too closely, he was able to determine that the owners of the figures were the only two remaining triplets.

"What's next?" Tang Yaoyao had a bit of a headache looking at the kitchen that had become a mess and said, "This kitchen looks like this, I don't want to go in and clean it."

"Just wait." Ruan Nan Candle said, "Maybe it will be clean tomorrow."

Everyone just took him for a joke and no one responded.

This afternoon, everyone stayed in their rooms, because the smell of the un-cleaned kitchen was so bad that you could smell it even sitting in the living room. So everyone scattered, helpless to escape the truth.

However, when it was time for dinner, Lin Qiushi, who was sitting on his bed with his head down playing with his phone, could smell the aroma of food.

The aroma was so tempting that Lin Qiushi's mouth involuntarily secreted saliva after smelling it, "What's this smell?"

"Someone's cooking?" Ruan Nan Candle was listlessly lying on the bed, he said, "I'm starving, I'll have a good meal when I get back."

Lin Qiushi: "Go see?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Let's go."

In this world, people basically never have a good meal, don't dare to move their chopsticks when they see something delicious, and eat dry bread every day. In the words of Ruan Nam Candle, the people who ate it were going dry.

The two of them came out of the house, but they saw the others follow, and it looked like they smelled the aroma as well.

"Who's cooking?" Xu Xiao Orange swallowed her saliva, greedy and scared, "It seems like there's someone in the kitchen..."

"Go over there." Ruan Nan Candle.

Several people followed the aroma and returned to the kitchen that should have been stained with blood. However, what one didn't expect was that the kitchen that was originally a mess full of mutilated flesh was now brand new, with two large pots placed on the stove, stewing with a thick aroma.

Lin Qiushi took a step forward and walked to the side of the pots and saw a few pieces of meat stewing in the pots. He looked at the floor carefully and found that the blood on the floor, which should have been difficult to remove, had disappeared, leaving only some residual black stains.

This scene reminded Lin Qiushi of what had happened after Zeng Ruguo's death.

"It's gone." Lin Qiushi said, "The body is gone."

Xu Xiao Orange said, "It's only been a few hours, how could it be so clean..."

"It's not a normal world in the first place," Ruan Nam Candle said, "Don't think in conventional terms."

They were standing in the kitchen talking, and the remaining few people came over as well. Tang Yaoyao was relieved after seeing the clean kitchen but muttered that it was good that the kitchen was clean, otherwise what would she have to eat in the next few days, she walked next to Lin Qiushi and also looked towards the pot a few times, "It smells good."

Lin Qiushi smiled bitterly, "You wouldn't dare to eat even if it smells good."

Tang Yaoyao didn't say anything.

Zhong Chengjian was also in the crowd, his current mental state still didn't look too good, his mouth was droning on and on, chanting some meaningless words, it looked like he was basically not far from going crazy if he was stimulated any further.

Right, in a closed environment with so many strange things happening around him, it wasn't easy to maintain his mental state.

It had only been a few days, and everyone's faces looked haggard and heavy as they saw the grind of the night approaching again.

Not eating well, not sleeping well, and facing the threat of ghosts and monsters.

Too many things had happened during the day, and everyone looked a little tired. Lin Qiushi was the same, he had washed up early and went back to bed. When he left the toilet, he saw Tang Yaoyao still standing in the ladies' toilet, and in the meantime, he was working on something, so he called out, "Tang Yaoyao?"

"What's wrong?" Tang Yao Yao turned back.

"It's late, why don't you go to bed?" Lin Qiushi pointed out the window into the night.

"Right away." Tang Yaoyao said, "I can't get the blood on me clean."

Lin Qiushi: "...What?"

Tang Yaoyao repeated loudly, "I said the blood on my body can't be washed clean!"

Not being clean, Lin Qiushi immediately remembered the first day he came here, when Zeng Ruguo stood under the bathroom showerhead and said that to him as well, "Don't wash it! It's so late, hurry back!"

Tang Yaoyao about heard the anxiety hidden in Lin Qiushi's tone and stopped what she was doing: "Alright, you go back first, I'll be right out."

Lin Qiushi said, "You hurry up."

"Mm." Tang Yaoyao responded casually.

In the fairy tale Firsia Bird, when the boy witch left his home, he gave his sisters eggs, and as soon as they opened the forbidden door, the eggs would be stained with blood, and the boy witch would cut the sisters into several chunks on his return before throwing them into the basement - at this moment, Lin Qiushi finally understood the importance of the note, and if he hadn't known about the fairy tale, he would still be in a fog at this point.

But now, the connection between the world inside the door and the fairy tale was gradually floating to the surface.

Lin Qiushi saw that the sound of water inside Tang Yao Yao had stopped, so he went back to his room first. Ruan Nan Candle was lying on the bed again, playing Even Watch with Lin Qiushi's phone.

Lin Qiushi leaned next to him and said, "The blood on Tang Yaoyao's body doesn't seem to be clean."

"The fresh blood from the egg wouldn't have washed clean." Ruan Nan Candle didn't even look up, "What would a male witch find with it if it was washed clean."

Lin Qiushi: "Who is the male witch?"

Ruanan Candle shook his head not to speak, not sure if he didn't know or didn't want to.

"Then someone is going to die again tonight." Almost everyone but the three of them were covered in blood today, Lin Qiushi said, "I don't know who it is."

Ruan Nan Candle put down her phone and tilted her head to look at Lin Qiushi, "Do you know you're funny?"

Lin Qiushi: "Huh?"

Nguyen Nam Candle said, "I thought you would try to save them." From the moment of contact, Lin Qiushi gave the impression that he was very soft and valued his attitude in the face of life, but this was a man who acted very calmly when he knew that death was imminent.

"I'm not as smart as you, you didn't even think of a way, what can I do." Lin Qiushi said, "I'm a little sleepy, I'm going to sleep first."

"Good night." Ruan Nan Candle said.

"Goodnight." Lin Qiushi said.

Mentally prepared, this night Lin Qiushi was ready to be woken up. It was just as he had expected, around three in the morning, he was woken up again by a strange sound. The sound was a bit far apart, but it was still barely audible.

Lin Qiushi turned around and next to him was Ruan Nan Candle's quiet sleeping face. It must be said that Ruan Nan Candle was really beautiful as a girl, and at that moment, her long eyelashes were opening and closing slightly with his breathing, just like a butterfly spreading its wings.

The sound continued, but Lin Qiushi began to think whether he should wake Ruan Nancandle up or not.

However before he could come up with an answer, a miserable scream came from outside, which was emitted by Zhang Xinghuo, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying, and his voice broke.

The sound was so loud that even Ruan Nan Candle, who always had good sleep quality, was woken up. As soon as he opened his eyes, he was eye to eye with Lin Qiushi, and before Lin Qiushi spoke, Ruan Nan Candle shyly said, "Nasty, you actually looked at someone all night."

Lin Qiushi: "I didn't, I wasn't..."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Alright, alright, it's alright, I also know that I look good."

Lin Qiushi: "......." you can say whatever you want, just be happy.

The screaming outside continued, Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu got dressed and pulled on the light, and once they left the house, they saw Zhang Xinghuang squatting at the end of the corridor, howling with fear on his face.

The others were also woken up and came out to check.

Tang Yaoyao walked over and asked, "Stop screaming, what's going on."

"It's dead - Zhong Chengjian is dead!!!" Zhang Xing Huo curled up into a ball, obviously undergoing severe excitement, and he said, "Died in the house-"

Tang Yaoyao said, "Isn't it just one person who died? Why are you so upset? Can't a grown man be a little more competitive?"

After what Zhong Chengjian had done during the day, everyone knew that he wouldn't live long, and they didn't know what had happened that could have irritated Zhang Xingfire like that.

But when they entered the house where Zhang Xinghuang was, they realized why Zhang Xinghuang had reacted so strongly.

It was because there was only a single thin human skin left on the bed in the house.

No bones, no flesh, no hair, as if the whole thing had been hollowed out, the human skin lay still beside the bed, irritating everyone's eyeballs.

Xu Xiao Orange didn't hold back this time and turned around and threw up.

Tang Yao Yao also took a few steps back with a pale face.

Only Ruan Nan Candle's expression didn't change much, and he muttered something in a low voice.

Lin Qiushi was close enough to him to clearly hear the product whisper, "It's as if the body has been hollowed out..."

Lin Qiushi: ".......skin a bit are you that happy.

"Woo, woo, I heard something in the middle of the night, I saw him dead as soon as I turned on the light." Zhang Xinghuang crouched on the ground and shivered, "Something came to our house, killed Zhong Chengjian, and left..."

Lin Qiushi: "Did that sound like a spoon scraping on something?"

Zhang Xing Huo said, "Yes, yes, you heard it too?"

Lin Qiushi: "Hmm... I hear you."

It was reasonable to say that Lin Qiushi wasn't close to Zhang Xinghuang's house, so this kind of subtle noise shouldn't be heard, but not only did he hear it, he also heard it loud and clear.

This Lin Qiushi does not say okay, once said everyone's face even worse, what is the sound of a spoon scraping something, is Zhong Chengjian by a spoon a little bit scraped clean?

"Can you not describe it so carefully?" Tang Yaoyao was creeped out at the thought of that scene, her throat moved up and down and she said in a mute voice, "Besides, how did you know it was a spoon and not something else..."

Lin Qiushi said, "I don't know, the first thing that came to mind was a spoon." He didn't know why he said such an adjective, but the first time he heard that voice, a similar scenario popped into his head and the first thing he reacted to was the sound of a spoon scraping something.

"It's thanks to Yu Linlin that you described it." Zhang Xing Huo was miserable, "This is the first time I've ever heard such a sound, it is indeed a spoon scraping something..." he said, and his body began to tremble again, looking like he was about to pass out at any moment.

Think about it, it's right, the person next to you is dead, the flesh and bones are still being scraped away with a spoon leaving a bloody human skin, no one can stand the excitement.

People can't sleep after what happened, and it feels like there's no safe place in the building.

Everyone went back into the living room and sat on the couch in silence.

In the end, Ruan Nan Candle had a big heart and started dozing off when he leaned on Lin Qiushi's shoulder.

Tang Yaoyao said sourly beside her, "Zhu Meng this can fall asleep ah, Yu Linlin don't your shoulders sore?"

"It's not sour." Lin Qiushi said, "It's good that he's asleep."

"Oh, you guys are funny." Tang Yao Yao said, "You can still fall in love here..."

Lin Qiushi didn't say anything, he couldn't say that this girl he was leaning on was a grown man. Who would believe that, ghost knows why Ruan Nan Candle is the best looking of the girls entering the door.

And so it simmered and simmered, and everyone finally made it to dawn.

Zhang Xing Huo finally snapped out of his fear and smiled bitterly, saying that he was so hungry and wanted something to eat.

"There's only dry bread." Tang Yaoyao said, "You wouldn't be interested in what's in the fridge, would you?"

Zhang Xinghuang shook his head to show that he was not interested, before that girl's shroud bag was placed inside, who could eat it at the thought of this.

Originally, when someone died today, everyone thought that the laws of the gate would not work, who knew that a group of people gathered together hadn't sat for half an hour and actually all actually slept.

It was only when the next day dawned that everyone woke up.

Lin Qiushi was the first to wake up, he opened his eyes and saw everyone slumped on the sofa, Xu Xiao Orange and Tang Yaoyao leaning against each other, while Zhang Xingfire was shrunk into a ball. Ruan Nan Candle's hands were around his neck, and his movements were natural, encompassing his entire body.

When Lin Qiushi moved, Ruan Nan Candle also woke up, he opened his eyes in a daze and said, "It's morning?"

"Hmm." Lin Qiushi said, "We actually all fell asleep, it's too dangerous..."

"What's so dangerous about it." Ruan Nan Candle was indifferent, "Sleeping in that coffin room isn't also death, the King of Hell wants people to struggle for three shifts and can't get to five."

As if that was indeed the case, Lin Qiushi looked helpless.

The sound of their conversation also woke the others up from their sleep, Xu Xiao Orange woke up and Lin Qiushi reacted in much the same way, both feeling that it was dangerous to fall asleep just sitting on the couch.

"Do you have something to eat?" Chang Starfire had started screaming about being hungry yesterday, and the first thing he did when he woke up now was scream about wanting food.

"I'll go to the kitchen." Tang Yaoyao stood up and went into the kitchen, and a moment later, her voice was heard from the kitchen, "You guys come over here?"

Lin Qiushi felt that her voice was a bit strange, and only when he walked into the kitchen did he understand why her tone was so strange.

It was because on the kitchen counter, there was a prepared breakfast on the table.

Light porridge, toasted bread, and a round boiled egg. This food might have felt a little light if they were outside the door, but for the few days they hadn't eaten properly, it was already very tempting.

"Who made this?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"I don't know." Tang Yaoyao said, "It was already done when I came in, Zhang Xingfire, what's your hurry-"

They were still talking, but Zhang Xinghuang was already holding the bowl and gulping down the porridge, wiping his mouth after finishing it, saying, "I'm too hungry to wait."

"It should be fine, I'm hungry too." Ruan Nan Candle observed and felt that there was no problem, "Eat."

He was basically the heart and soul of the team now, he said it was okay to eat and everyone moved their chopsticks.

Lin Qiushi was actually quite hungry and ate a large piece of bread and three bowls of porridge in one breath, but because he couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart, he never touched the eggs.

Ruan Nanzhu, on the other hand, had no inhibitions and swallowed three eggs in a row before wiping her mouth to show that she was full.

Finally relieving their hunger, terrifying colors appeared on everyone's faces.

"So full." Xu Xiao Orange touched her belly, "So happy, it's been a long time since I've been so full, who cooked this?"

"Who cares who made it." Tang Yaoyao said, "Eat your fill on-" she was about to say eat your fill, but the words came to her mouth, but she swallowed them hard.

Because a figure slowly appeared in front of the crowd, it was a woman wearing an apron, with her hair loose and a kind smile on her ordinary face, she noticed the frightened eyes of the crowd, so she turned her head and smiled, "What are you looking at me for, eat, I made it especially for you, how is it, is it good?"

Xu Xiao Orange covered her mouth, thudding and rushing to the toilet.

The atmosphere is quiet and frightening, and everyone is looking at the woman - she is the mother of the triplets who was hacked to death by Zhong Chengjian only yesterday, when the woman who should have died tragically is standing in front of them intact, and also asked them with a benevolent face if their breakfast was good.

No wonder Xu Xiao Orange ran to the toilet to throw up again.

"What's wrong, isn't it good?" The woman didn't seem to understand why people were looking at her like that, and continued to ask questions.

"Yummy." Ruanan Candle finally opened her mouth, "Thank you for the food."

"I'm glad you guys like it." The woman smiled sweetly, "The kids at home are picky eaters, unlike you guys, who love everything." She said, turned around and went out laughing. Leaving behind a room full of everyone with expressions like they had eaten shit.

Lin Qiushi was fine, but Tang Yaoyao had started swearing, looking at her exasperated appearance, it was obvious that she was disgusted by what she had just eaten from her stomach.

That's right, yesterday, you were still a fragmented person, but today, you're cooking a delicious meal for you, I'm afraid that put it on anyone, it would be a big problem. This was a typical case of not being able to vomit and swallow.

Faced with the unkind gazes of the crowd, the woman didn't care in the slightest, she slowly walked to the kitchen and spoke, "What would you like to have for lunch? There's a lot of meat in the fridge again..." she picked up the knife and gently fondled it for a moment, "It can make delicious food for you."

The knife she was squeezing in her hand was the one that Zhong Chengjian had chopped her into several pieces that day, and it still had some black stains on it.

Everyone remained silent and slowly retreated from the kitchen.

Xu Xiaoliang also returned to the living room, she vomited white, the whole person seemed to be about to faint, sitting on the sofa straight breathing with a cry: "I really can't, I'm going to die..."

"You should be used to it by now." Ruan Nan Candle stated ruthlessly, "How many times have you thrown up these days, it's even worse than being pregnant."

Xu Xiao Orange wailed.

"How could she be alive." Tang Yao Yao said, "Then is she a human or a ghost now?"

"A human is certainly not a human, and a ghost is not a ghost," said Ruan Nam Candle, "Perhaps she is just an indispensable NPC that refreshes whenever she dies because of her importance?"

Tang Yao Yao: "That's a refreshing statement on your part."

"But now there's a question." Ruan Nan Candle said, "If she will keep refreshing, does she have any memories of her own death?"

Tang Yao Yao: "No, right? If so, see how we're so calm?"

Nguyen Nam Candle: "Because the murderer has disappeared?"

Tang Yao Yao pursed her lips.

There was indeed one person missing among them, and that was Zhong Chengjian who had killed the woman. It was fortunate that Zhong Chengjian wasn't around when the woman was revived, or else according to his mental state, it was really very likely that he would have brought his knife and cut the woman to death once more.

"Look on the bright side, at least someone is helping us make breakfast." Ruan Nan Candle said with a big heart, "I don't want to eat any more dry bread."

"How dare you eat what she made?" Tang Yao Yao expressed her disapproval of Ruan Nan Candle's big heart.

"You ate today, didn't you." Ruan Nan Candle ruthlessly revealed the cruel truth, "And you ate more than me, and everyone ate it."

Tang Yaoyao: "........"

Xu Xiao Orange, who was sitting next to him, weakly raised his hand, "I didn't eat it, I threw it all up."

Crowd: "...then you're awesome oh.

What the author has to say: Nguyen Nam Candle: I really like eggs.

Lin Qiushi: ...why are you staring at me if you like eggs?

Ruan Nam Candle: Now we're all eggs, ow!
