Kaleidoscope of Death

After sleeping for a day and a night, Lin Qiushi woke up. When he woke up, his fever had subsided, and although he did not have much strength, he was able to walk on the ground. After the doctor checked him, he said that he would be given one more day of fluids to consolidate his condition and could be discharged the next day.

Cheng Qianli stayed by his side and asked him not to worry, saying that his cat was being fed, so there was no need to rush back.

Lin Qiushi thanked him.

He lay on the hospital bed, and for the first time felt that the hospital was also so friendly. After entering the world inside the door and coming out a few days later, he felt like a world apart, even though only ten minutes had passed in the real world.

On the third day, Cheng Qianli discharged Lin Qiushi from the hospital, and drove Lin Qiushi home.

When Lin Qiushi arrived home, he took out his key and opened the door, but before he went in, he heard his chestnut's meowing and whining voice. But he saw Ruan Nancandle sitting on his sofa, reading a book. Chestnut, who treated him coldly, was rubbing against Ruan Nancandle's ankle, whining, and even laying down from time to time to reveal her soft, furry belly and begging to be petted.

The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the newest version of the book.

Lin Qiushi's jealous eyes were straight, perhaps noticing his burning eyes, Ruan Nan Candle, who hadn't looked up, looked over at this point: "Okay?"

"Mm." Lin Qiushi jolted over to Ruan Nan Candle's side, sitting down reservedly and trying to pretend to carelessly pick up his cat. Who knew that Chestnut dodged his hand with a twist of his butt.

Lin Qiushi shed tears of sadness at the sight: "...Chestnut, don't you love daddy anymore?"

Without a word, Ruan Nan Candle bent down and easily picked up Chestnut, who mewed and happily rubbed her head against Ruan Nan Candle's chest.

"Touch it." Ruan Nan Candle exposed the chestnut to Lin Qiushi.

Lin Qiushi reached out his hand and finally touched his cat, "Chestnut what's wrong you don't know daddy anymore?"

As if he was a poor father who had lost his son, Lin Qiushi was so grief-stricken that he always had the subtle feeling of being green when he watched the cat cub he had worked so hard to raise stick to another man.

"Cats are more sensitive to these things." Ruan Nan Candle explained, "It's good to go through a few more doors."

At the mention of doors, Lin Qiushi's entire body wilted and he leaned back on the couch, "Can I ask why you killed that woman in the end? Didn't I say no blood?"

"I thought the key was in the cake," Nguyen Nan Candle, "but it wasn't, so it must be somewhere else, do you remember what the last scene of the fairy tale is?"

Lin Qiushi thought about it and seemed to understand Ruan Nan Candle's meaning as he sat up straight, "The three sisters were resurrected and the male witch was killed?"

"Right." Ruan Nam Candle said, "So I'm suspicious..."

"What if it's not?" Lin Qiushi didn't think he was that strong in action for just suspecting.

"If it's not, it's not." Ruan Nanzhu was remarkably calm, "If you look elsewhere, you can always find it."

Lin Qiushi showed an admiring expression, where would this ordinary person dare to bring up a knife and cut, besides, there were previous examples where ordinary people would be reluctant to get blood on their hands, that is, Ruan Nan Candle was able to come up with such an idea of the key being inside the man witch's body, it was fine to come up with it, but he also cut the man witch into a few pieces on the spot.

"Did you get the hint for the next door?" Lin Qiushi remembered something else, and he said, "Does it have to be through the twelve gates?"

"Well." Ruan Nan Candle said, "Let's eat something first and talk to you slowly."

So the three of them left the house, trying to find something to eat.

Lin Qiushi was recovering from a serious illness and should have eaten something light, but he had been gnawing on dry bread inside the door for seven days and his mouth was full, so he took Ruan Nanzhu and Cheng Qianli to a small shop under the building that made Jianghu Cuisine and ordered several spicy dishes.

The Jiang Hu Cuisine is a special dish on their side, heavy hemp and spicy, and even more comfortable with beer.

Lin Qiushi ate with a thin layer of sweat floating all over his body.

"Your next door should be in about ten days." Ruan Nanzhu wasn't as happy as Lin Qiushi's eating, he didn't seem to be able to eat spicy food very well, the tip of his nose turned red after just a few bites and his eyes lost their usual coldness and became moist, "You can rest well in these ten days."

"What's that hint in the door?" Lin Qiushi was more concerned about this matter.

"Can't tell you." Ruan Nan Candle actually came up with this sentence.

"Why?" Lin Qiushi was a bit confused.

"Because that door is not necessarily your door, it might be someone else's door, and you might not go in then." Ruan Nan Candle said, "A door hint will only be given to the first person who opens the door, whoever opens the door, that hint is in the hands of whoever has more initiative and also has more power, but these hints won't necessarily be used by themselves."

Lin Qiushi was stunned, "Wouldn't that mean I don't have a hint for the next door?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "The situation is complicated, let me put it this way, you can rub against Cheng Qianli in the next door."

Lin Qiushi was dizzy from listening.

In the end, it was Cheng Qianli who explained, "A door will only have one theme, but what, if you and I enter the same door, then this door is both yours and mine. This door has other rules, for example, it's now that I'm opening the fourth door before you open the second, so if you follow me into the fourth door world and come out, then your first three doors will automatically open."

Is there such a thing as a good thing? Lin Qiushi stared at it, "Take wouldn't it be if we found one that opened twelve doors..."

"Where's the good news." Cheng Qianli took a bite of food and said vaguely, "This kind of leap should definitely not be taken too far, or else you will die a miserable death, there are still things you don't know, I can't tell you too clearly."

Lin Qiushi said, "Why can't you?"

Cheng Qianli: "Because even if you make it clear you'll still continue to ask why."

Looking at the expressions of the two, it was clear that they both abhorred newcomers similar to 100,000 whys, and Lin Qiushi didn't ask for trouble when he saw the situation, quietly shutting up and eating.

As expected Cheng Qianli long sighed and said that still Ruan's vision is good, look at the other people brought back newcomers which is not more problems than can be counted, the most miserable is just after giving people decryption, the next world to die in the door, before the words said all become nonsense.

Lin Qiushi: "...But you're only four gates, why are you so skilled."

Cheng Qianli: "I'm only four doors, but my brother has already passed eight." He said mumbling, sounding like he was complaining about something.

Lin Qiushi ate his meal, thinking about what the two of them had said, thinking for a while and then wanting to ask questions.

About Ruan Nan Candle saw his look of wanting to say something and held out a finger, "Last one."

"Then why did I meet you in my first world?" Lin Qiushi said, "Didn't you have no one you knew in the first world?"

"That's two questions," Ruan Nan Candle said, "And who said I don't know anyone in there."

Lin Qiushi was shocked, "...who do you know?"

Ruan Nam Candle: "Remember the two that died the first night?"

Lin Qiushi: "...remember."

"One of them was one of my customers." Ruan Nan Candle coughed dryly, "I was mistaken about the wrong person."

Lin Qiushi fell into an enigmatic silence.

Ruan Nam Candle: "Thinking you were my customer, by the time I found out the next day that it was wrong, my customer was already dead." He wiped his mouth and spoke in a very flat tone that stunned people, "Later on, I found that you had good qualifications, so I brought you back."

Cheng Qianli held his laughter beside him and told Lin Qiushi not to be surprised, saying that this wasn't the first time Ruan Nan Candle had gotten the service recipient wrong. The main reason was that Lin Qiushi and that customer were wearing basically similar colors at the time, plus the fact that they had met on the path in the first place....

When Lin Qiushi thought carefully, it seemed like that was indeed the case, so he said why Ruan Nan Candle was so special to him at that time, but it turned out to be the reason: "...I thought it was because the two of us were like old friends at first sight."

Ruan Nan Candle: "You can think that too."

After dinner, Lin Qiushi prepared to go home.

But Ruan Nan Candle told him that if possible, it would be best to move to the villa so that everyone would have something to look after.

"Will something happen?" Lin Qiushi was a bit confused, "Didn't they leave the door already?"

"There are other people like us in reality." Cheng Qianli said, "Some of these people are already psychopaths... Alas, it's always a good idea to come over as much as you can anyway."

"Alright, I'll think about it." Lin Qiushi nodded, indicating that he knew.

The three of them finished their meal and saw a huge billboard on the side of the road as they walked back.

Ruan Nan Candle casually pointed it out and said, "Mumble, she's Xu Xiao Orange."

Lin Qiushi looked up and found that the billboard had a popular actress printed on it, this actress walked the route of the imperial sister, with a high and cold demeanor, and raised her hands and feet with pride, and the one in the inner world of the door who liked to cry every day, Xu Xiao Orange, was simply a completely different person.

Lin Qiushi originally felt surprised, but he was relieved when he carefully thought about the fact that this cold looking man beside him was still a girl in the door.

"We'll go back first, you'll be safe at home by yourself, call if you need anything." Cheng Qianli said, "Bye bye."

"Bye." Lin Qiushi waved his hand and saw them get on the bus and walk away before turning around and going back to the house.

When he got back, he was resting on the couch, and Chestnut was sitting far away watching him, and wouldn't come over to let him touch him. As for wanting to lie down on Chestnut's belly and suck on it like before, it was even more impossible.

Lin Qiushi was groggy from watching TV, but when he was about to fall asleep, he heard a cry for help coming from downstairs. He woke up at once, and his first reaction was that he wasn't hallucinating, but the screams became louder and louder, accompanied by other noisy comments.

Lin Qiushi climbed up from the couch and went to the window, but he saw a man running wildly through the neighborhood, and another man chasing after him with a knife.

The image was so fantastical that Lin Qiushi rubbed his eyes hard with his hands to make sure that it was indeed not his blurred eyes.

The one being chased was a girl, her appearance was completely unfamiliar, but her clothes were somewhat familiar, but the night was too dark at this time, so Lin Qiushi couldn't see clearly.

The other residents were also noisy by the sound and went to the window to watch, after Lin Qiushi was sure he was not mistaken, he quickly called the police, briefly explained the situation, then grabbed a clothesline, intending to go down to help. But as soon as he reached the elevator, he heard a miserable scream, and then the screaming stopped abruptly....

It was over, Lin Qiushi instantly understood something.

As expected, by the time he went downstairs, the girl was already lying in a pool of blood with a dagger in her chest.

The man who killed her, sat beside him and laughed, saying, "Bitch you also have today, I'll see how you still go out to seduce people.

He didn't react when he saw Lin Qiushi coming over, talking to himself like a psychopath.

The company has been in the process of developing the new product for the past two years, and has been working on the development of the new product.

As a witness, Lin Qiushi went to the police station and learned that the girl had died on the spot, without even a chance to be rescued.

The next day, this matter made the news on the society page, and it turned out that it wasn't a love killing at all, but the murderer was a mentally deranged psychopath, and the family didn't look forward to being released from their home, so the girl suffered such an unmitigated disaster. The worst part is that the psychopath is not held accountable for his actions....

Lin Qiushi went to the villa after watching the news and found Ruan Nan Candle, saying if this girl was someone they knew.

"It should be Tang Yao Yao." Ruan Nan Candle read the newspaper and came to a conclusion.

"She's dead?" Lin Qiushi said, "How could they die so strangely..."

"Anyone who can get in the door is dying," Ruan Nam Candle said, "Car accidents, murders, diseases, accidents, you don't get in the door, you die too."

Lin Qiushi heard Ruan Nam Candle's words, but suddenly remembered the medical report he hadn't gone to get.

About seeing that something was wrong with his expression, Nguyen Nam Candle said, "What?"

"Nope." Lin Qiushi said, "Just remembered something, I'm leaving first."

Ruan Nanzhu nodded and didn't stop.

Lin Qiushi went to the hospital and claimed his medical report, he tore open the envelope containing the medical report and flipped to the page of results, he saw a few neat little words: early stage of liver cancer.

Lin Qiushi: ".......how could this be, Lin Qiushi laughed bitterly.

He never smoked and seldom drank alcohol, and apart from work, he had no other recreational activities. But it was such a conscientious and diligent person that he ended up in such a state.

This frustration reached its peak when Lin Qiushi returned home with the medical report in his hand, facing the chestnut at home who still didn't want to come near him.

The phone rang, but Lin Qiushi lay in bed and did not move, he now does not want to answer anyone's phone, just want to be alone for a while.

The phone rang and stopped ringing again and again, it lasted for two or three times before it finally subsided.

Lin Qiushi thought that the person who called him had given up, who knew that half an hour later, there was a knocking sound at his door.

Lin Qiushi went to the door and saw Ruan Nam Candle standing outside through his cat's eyes, he pulled the door open and before he spoke, Ruan Nam Candle took a step to boast in, "What happened?"

Lin Qiushi shook his head.

Ruan Nan Candle looked Lin Qiushi up and down, "Go ahead."

Lin Qiushi was silent for a moment, turning around and pointing to the medical report on the table.

Ruan Nanzhu reached out and took it over, flipping through it a few times before casually tossing it to the side, "This is it?"

"What do you mean, just this?" Lin Qiushi thought that he would comfort him a few words, but not only did he not comfort him but this attitude, he was shocked: "Liver cancer! Terminal illness!!!"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Did you not remember what I said?"

Lin Qiushi: "What words?"

"I told you, everyone who can enter the door is dying, you're in now, so naturally you're no exception." Ruan Nan Candle said, "You're pretty good at this, at least there's a buffer, see Tang Yao Yao from yesterday? She's just dying, if she managed to get out of the door she could have escaped that psycho, but she didn't."

Lin Qiushi: "But I've got liver cancer, does the door still cure me?"

"Can I tell you that you won't believe it even if I tell you, it'll just take a while." Ruan Nan Candle raised her hand to look at the time, "You'd better move to the villa, you didn't answer the phone just now, I thought you were dead."

Lin Qiushi: "........"

Ruan Nan Candle: "I'll help you move tomorrow."

Lin Qiushi wanted to say something else, but Ruan Nan Candle made a stop gesture and pointed to Chestnut: "Chestnut might let you touch it at the villa."

Lin Qiushi, who hadn't touched his own little cutie for almost a month, immediately rebelled: "Then... then I'll try?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "..." he thought that Lin Qiushi would continue to struggle.

That night, Ruan Nan Candle didn't go back, but stayed at Lin Qiushi's house for the night.

Lin Qiushi was too embarrassed to let him sleep on the sofa, so he gave up half of the bed, one left and one right, covering the blanket and purely chatting.

Unlike the world inside the door, the reality of Ruan Nanzhu doesn't seem to talk much, and is even a little cold. The good thing is that in the face of Lin Qiushi, he still answered all the questions and had a gentle attitude.

Lin Qiushi felt very touched by this, touched at the same time, but at the same time, there was a schizophrenic feeling, as if the one in the door was actually not Ruan Nan Candle, but Ruan Nan Candle's sister or sister....

But the good thing was that he was also a bit tired today, so he didn't split for long and fell asleep in a daze.

It wasn't until the next day that Lin Qiushi found himself waking up in Ruan Nan Candle's arms.

Their posture could be said to be very natural, he was leaning on Ruan Nan Candle's chest and clinging to someone like a wombat. The situation was a bit awkward, yet the most awkward thing was that Lin Qiushi's body was reacting.

He silently tried to move away from his body, but Ruan Nan Candle, who was still asleep beside him, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at him silently.

Lin Qiushi smiled awkwardly, "Good morning, good morning?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "Good."

Lin Qiushi: "I... will get up first." He loosened his hold on Ruan Nan Candle and pretended to move away from Ruan Nan Candle carelessly.

Ruan Nan Candle remained silent until Lin Qiushi was about to sit up, then he suddenly came, "You're blushing."

Lin Qiushi: "........"

Ruan Nam Candle: "It's okay."

Lin Qiushi: "........"

Ruan Nam Candle: "They are all men, I understand."

Lin Qiushi had a pained expression and only begged Ruan Nan Candle not to continue, however Ruan Nan Candle was very ruthless in revealing everything and said, "I'm also hard."

Lin Qiushi directly fell away. He found that although the personalities weren't quite similar, the Ruan Nam Candle outside the door was simply as hard as the one inside, although the type of hardness wasn't quite the same.

Getting up in a mess, Lin Qiushi went to the kitchen to make breakfast. Ruan Nam Candle lay on the bed and said she wanted noodles.

"What flavor?" Lin Qiushi asked him.

Nguyen Nam Candle said, "It's the kind you make inside the door."

"Okay." Lin Qiushi put on his apron and went into the kitchen.

Ruan Nan Candle was lying on the bed and didn't know what she was doing, but after a while there was a knock at the door.

"Someone is knocking on the door." Ruan Nam Candle voiced out.

"You go open it." Lin Qiushi was frying eggs inside, "It's probably a delivery."

"Hmm." Ruan Nam Candle went to open the door and saw a girl standing in the doorway, the girl saw him also froze and said, "Hello, I found Lin Qiushi."

"Qiushi, it's looking for you." Ruan Nan Candle turned around.

Because he slept here yesterday, Ruan Nan Candle was still wearing Lin Qiushi's pajamas, which were a bit too small on him, so he didn't button it up, and his beautiful six-pack abs were looming, somehow more lustful.

So as soon as Lin Qiushi came out, he saw his colleague, Cao Ying, standing at the door with a flushed face.

"What did you do?" Lin Qiushi looked at Ruan Nan Candle.

Ruan Nam Candle was baffled: "What can I do?" He paused, "Instead of asking me what I did to her, you should worry about what I'm going to do to you."

Lin Qiushi: "......."

"Cough cough cough." Choking on the conversation between the two, Cao Ying coughed violently.

Lin Qiushi's ears reddened as well, but he still managed to remain calm, "Something wrong? Cao Ying?" He had submitted his resignation and the handover was done.

"You have something you didn't take with you." From the bag she was carrying, Cao Ying brought out a notebook.

"Oh, thank you," Lin Qiushi took the notebook. This notebook was for him to record a bit of work, it was quite important to him, but he just didn't know how to get rid of it.

"Can I take the liberty of asking, this is your... "Cao Ying's eyes shifted back to Ruan Nan Candle.

"My friend." Lin Qiushi.

"Oh." Cao Ying said with a red face, "I've never seen you before."

"You..." as Lin Qiushi was about to ask her if she wanted to have breakfast together, Ruan Nancandle came with a blank expression and said I'm hungry, then closed the door in one smooth motion.

In the meantime, Lin Qiushi ended up looking up and saw Ruan Nan Candle's eyes, and he took a step back in shock at the look: "Ruan Nan Candle?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "What."

Lin Qiushi: "What do you mean by this expression?"

Ruan Nan Candle lifted the corners of his mouth and smiled, "It means that he's hungry and wants to eat." His eyes were very revealing as he looked Lin Qiushi up and down, Lin Qiushi was about to speak, but he turned around and went to the kitchen, and a moment later, the sound of eating noodles came from there.

Lin Qiushi: ".......it must be that he's thinking too much!!!"

The author has something to say: Ruan Nam Candle: I want to eat your bottom.

Lin Qiushi: ????
