Kaleidoscope of Death

Ruan Nanzhu liked Lin Qiushi's noodles so much that he ate a whole bowl of them, not even the soup.

Lin Qiushi said, "Is it that good?"

"It's much better than what's inside the door." Ruan Nan Candle wiped her mouth and looked at the time again, "Clean up as soon as possible, I'll pick you up this afternoon."

"Good." Lin Qiushi nodded.

After saying this, Ruan Nan Candle got up and left. The family's chestnut whined and wrapped its tail around Ruan Nan Candle's leg, looking like it was reluctant to leave, seeing Lin Qiushi's jealousy burning. But it can't be helped by jealousy, because Chestnut is a cat.

This house is also rented by Lin Qiushi, there are still half a year left on the lease, and he doesn't intend to give it back. He wasn't really from this city, he only stayed here after graduation because he went to university here, and he got used to the weather and life here.

Lin Qiushi started to pack his things. He didn't have many clothes and soon they were all packed, the most troublesome were some work books that were deadly heavy. After hesitating for a while, he went downstairs and called the cleaning lady to send them all out.

I'm about to lose my life, I should do something to make myself happy.

After packing up his bag, Lin Qiushi told his friend Wu Qiuzhi that he was moving.

As soon as Wu Qiqi heard that he was moving, he yelled that he wanted to come and help, but Lin Qiushi refused, saying that the tenant had already found a moving company, so there was no need to come over specially.

"Then where are you going to move to?" Kuzaki asked.

"Suburbs, I'll ask you to come over for fun when that place is cleaned up." Lin Qiushi said, "You have a good day at work."

"You remember to send me the address." Kurezaki said, "It's good to quit your job and play for a while, who can stand working overtime every day, even though I'm young, I have to consider my body."

"Mm." Lin Qiushi echoed.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Ruan Nanzhu and Cheng Qianli came on time and helped him bring his luggage to the car. The mewling chestnuts were also packed in the airline box and then placed on the back seat.

Lin Qiushi: "By the time we get to the villa, will the chestnut really be allowed to be touched?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Mm."

Cheng Qianli: "Lin Qiushi do you know that you look like a wife whose husband has abandoned her right now?"

Lin Qiushi: "...I'm not, I'm not.

The car moved on, the surrounding scenery gradually desolate, and finally drove out of the Ring Road to reach the lone villa that stood in the suburbs.

This was Lin Qiushi's second visit, and when he moved in with his big bag, he saw Cheng Yixie in the living room.

Cheng Yixie was eating something, and when she saw them come in, there was no emotion at all on her expressionless face, just a cold greeting, "Brother Ruan."

Lin Qiushi reflexively looked at Cheng Qianli beside him.

It had to be said that even though they were twins, their styles were far apart, Cheng Qianli was lively and outgoing, and his expressions were exaggerated when he said anything. Cheng Yicher, however, is introverted and cold, and he looks like he's not easy to get along with.

Ruan Nanzhu said, "How are the preparations going?"

"It's okay." Cheng Yicher said, "We'll have to go in to see the details, when are you leaving?"

Nguyen Nam Candle said, "in a few days."

Cheng Yicher nodded and turned around.

When Lin Qiushi heard this, he whispered, "Are you coming in in a few days?"

"Hmm." Ruan Nan Candle echoed.

"Isn't it vicious?" If Lin Qiushi's second door was so terrifying, wouldn't Ruan Nan Candle be even more terrifying.

"Fine." Ruan Nan Candle said, "Don't worry too much." He looked faint, as if he was talking about traveling somewhere, and there was no sign of tension.

When Lin Qiushi saw how calm he was, he calmed down as well.

Afterwards, Ruan Nam Candle arranged a place for Lin Qiushi to stay, at the end of the corridor on the third floor, opposite Ruan Nam Candle's room.

When Lin Qiushi moved his luggage to his room, he couldn't wait to put the chestnut out of the airline case.

The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the newest addition to the newest addition to the newest addition.

Ruan Nan Candle picked up the chestnut as soon as he bent down and sat on the sofa, beckoning to Lin Qiushi, "Come here."

Lin Qiushi, whose eyes were red with jealousy, ran over with his mouth full, calling out, "Nan Candle, Nan Candle... let me take a drag!"

Next to him, Cheng Qianli: "...Lin Qiushi, have you caught a cat addiction?

Ruanan Candle looked down at the chestnut, "Suck it."

Lin Qiushi: "Yes!" He reached out first to touch the chestnut and found that it did indeed not protest with its paws anymore, which was a huge improvement.

There was no time to lose, and Lin Qiushi seized the opportunity to do just that with a lunge, plunging headlong into the chestnut's soft fur.

The chestnut meowed, her pink paws softly patting Lin Qiushi's head.

Sucking cats makes people happy, it's impossible not to suck cats, and it's only possible to maintain the appearance of life in this life. A few months without touching his baby Lin Qiushi at this time finally got his wish, moved almost to tears.

"Fuck, what are you guys doing? It's too exciting, isn't it?" Suddenly someone's voice came from the doorway, and before Lin Qiushi understood what was going on, he felt Ruan Nan Candle suddenly reach out and gently grab his hair: "Lin Qiushi, don't kneel down and suck."

"Fuck! Suck on your knees!" The man said, "Nguyen, you guys are so good at this!!!"

Lin Qiushi: "..." he was silent for three seconds before he realized what was happening. He only saw that Ruan Nan Candle had the chestnut on his lap at this time, and he was half-kneeling in front of Ruan Nan Candle, and was throwing his face on the chestnut with an intoxicated face... This posture, how could it look wrong?

Lin Qiushi silently stood up and turned his head to look at the people behind him.

This was a man called Yi Manman he had seen in the villa before, about Lin Qiushi's gaze was too grim, causing Yi Manman to be a bit terrified, saying, "It's okay, you guys go on, I'm just passing by."

Ruan Nan Candle laughed lowly.

Chestnut was still in his arms with a dazed look on his face, his fur becoming messy from Lin Qiushi's actions, but even so, he was still cute.

Lin Qiushi stood up from the ground and shifted to reveal the cat in front of him, holding out his hand to show that he wasn't doing anything less than childish.

"Oh, playing with the cat." Emanuel smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood."

"It's okay." Lin Qiushi, "I shouldn't have gotten too excited..."

The man who was watching the whole thing, Cheng Qianli, finally couldn't hold back, patted the table and laughed, taking out his mobile phone as he laughed, and asked Lin Qiushi to come over and look at the photos he had taken.

When Lin Qiushi leaned over to take a look, he saw himself half-kneeling between Ruan Nanzhu's legs, while Ruan Nanzhu looked at him with a gentle face, and even reached out his hand and gently grabbed his hair....

Lin Qiushi: "Fuck, when did you take that picture, you deleted it-"

Cheng Qianli: "Fine, fine, don't get excited, I'll delete it right away." He deleted the picture in front of Lin Qiushi, and that was the end of it.

Lin Qiushi sat back on the couch with a tired face after getting it done, expressing how it was so difficult to suck a cat these days.

After he said this, he saw Chestnut happily rubbing his head against Ruan Nan Candle's chest, with a look like how come you haven't sucked me yet.

Lin Qiushi: "... "Chestnut you big traitor!!!!

That evening, to celebrate Lin Qiushi's stay, everyone had a meal together and Lin Qiushi got to know the people in the villa all over again.

Yi Manman, Chen Fei, and Lu Yanxue were the ones that he had seen last time, and it was said that there were a few more of them who were on business elsewhere and would only return after a while. The villa also had a corgi named Toast, who had been sick in the hospital for the past two days, and Cheng Qianli said that he would take them home only after that.

"Are they going to fight." Lin Qiushi looked a little worried about Chestnut.

"No way, your chestnut is quite good-tempered." Cheng Qianli said, "My Toast has a good temper, but he has a flaw, he likes to sniff the cat's butt."

"Its male and female?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"A male." Cheng Qianli said, "Take it out for a walk and you'll get beaten up if you meet a wild cat, alas." He looked at the chestnut.

Lin Qiushi nodded, "The chestnut at my house is also a male."

As such, there shouldn't be any cross-species accidents....

Chen Fei and Yi Manman, both toasted Lin Qiushi a glass of wine and said that they would take care of each other in the future, Lu Yanxue sat next to them and smiled very sweetly, saying that she was very happy that Lin Qiushi had joined them.

Lin Qiushi also drank a few glasses of wine, but he didn't dare to drink more in view of his health condition.

After the dinner, Lin Qiushi went back to his room and lay on his bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. His brain was a bit confused and strange thoughts were running around.

Unable to sleep, Lin Qiushi crawled out of bed and wanted to go to the corridor to catch his breath.

When he reached the corridor window, he saw Ruan Nanzhu standing in the garden talking to Chen Fei through the window.

Both of them had very serious expressions, and there was a black notebook in front of them, and from time to time they used a pen to write and draw on it.

Chen Fei had a gentle temperament and wore a pair of black-framed glasses, and his smile was gentle. The first time I saw him, I thought he was a teacher, but it wasn't clear how I joined him, because he was actually the last to enter the villa.

It was reasonable to say that Lin Qiushi shouldn't be able to hear anything from such a distance, but miraculously, he actually vaguely heard their conversation, although it wasn't particularly clear, but he could still guess a bit.

They seemed to be discussing Ruan Nan Candle's next door, about the background of the clue, its possible hidden hints....

Lin Qiushi was planning to continue listening, but Ruan Nanzhu, who was standing downstairs, seemed to have eyes behind him and turned his head directly towards him.

Their eyes met, and Lin Qiushi awkwardly waved his hand at him in greeting.

Ruan Nan Candle turned his head and said something to Chen Fei and came towards the villa, Lin Qiushi walked nor stood and felt strange, so he had to open his door and sat at the door and waited.

A moment later, Ruan Nan Candle did appear at his door.

"Can't sleep?" Ruanan Candle asked.

"Hmm." Lin Qiushi said, "My head is a mess."

Ruan Nam Candle said, "Since you can't sleep, let me show you something." He sat in front of the computer in the room and pressed the power on button.

After a burst of boot music, the computer screen lit up, and Ruan Nam Candle moved the mouse to open the first URL in the webpage's collection.

The icon of that URL was a black door, almost identical to the iron door Lin Qiushi had entered.

Ruan Nan Candle opened the URL and entered another account, and a moment later, a blood red forum appeared in front of Lin Qiushi's eyes.

"This is a forum, it was built by people who have entered the gate, it's very rich and has some information, you can browse around first if you have nothing else to do." Ruan Nam Candle said, "Only use this computer, don't use anything else to enter this forum."

"The address will be found if you use other?" Lin Qiushi asked.

Ruan Nan Candle nodded.

"What will happen if they are found out?" Lin Qiushi was confused about this.

Ruan Nam Candle said, "Bad things can happen if they are discovered." He was silent for a moment and spoke the shocking truth in a calm tone, "The door can be taken away."

"What?" Lin Qiushi glared.

"I've long said that the door is not a punishment, it's a reward." Ruan Nan Candle said, "A person who is bound to die enters the door, and if they pass through the twelve, they will be reborn."

"But how are the doors taken away?" Lin Qiushi still couldn't figure it out.

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Those who don't have a door only need to enter the door with its owner and kill the owner of that door in the world within the door, then the door will change hands, of course, it's difficult to operate, but there is always a way if you have the heart."

Lin Qiushi was stunned for a few seconds at these words, then cold sweat appeared on his hands, he didn't think that it wasn't just the hellish and terrifying world inside the door that he had to resist. There was also the covetousness of people with hearts outside the door, unimaginable, and if he hadn't met Ruan Nan Candle, even if he came out of the door, he would probably be confused.

He also thought of Zhang Zishuang who died in the first door, it wasn't the first time Zhang Zishuang had entered the door, but he didn't even change his clothes when he went in, causing him to be directly identified by Lin Qiushi after his accident.

Lin Qiushi looked at the computer screen and found that the activity of this forum was actually high, it was now two in the morning and there were still over six thousand online users.

"We get our jobs online too," Ruan Nam Candle said, "but not this website, you don't need to know that much about it now that you're just coming in, just check out this forum first."

"Oh." Lin Qiushi thanked Ruan Nam Candle, "Thank you."

Ruan Nan Candle: "Thank you is not necessary, let's do something practical."

Lin Qiushi: "Fine... how would you like me to thank you, how about..." he was about to say that he would invite Ruan Nan Candle for a meal tomorrow, when Ruan Nan Candle interrupted him. "Why don't you suck the cat on my lap again sometime?"

Lin Qiushi: ".......Is this person playing a rogue? This man is just being a hooligan!

Ruan Nan Candle: "Okay, I'm kidding." He stood up and walked towards the door, "You can read it yourself first, I have something else to do." He steps, stops by the door and turns his head, "Don't eavesdrop, oh."

Lin Qiushi murmured.

Ruan Nan Candle, "What a good boy." He laughed and turned around.

Lin Qiushi looked at his back always felt that something was wrong, and thought carefully before he was alarmed that Ruan Nan Candle was blowing him up, they were so far away, normal people wouldn't think that Lin Qiushi had heard their conversation, but Ruan Nan Candle came out of nowhere, and Lin Qiushi didn't react, he just recognized it.

But what was wrong with his hearing....

With such doubts, Lin Qiushi sat on a chair and started browsing the forum.

There were many posts in this forum, it was very mixed, and there was even information about dating. Of course now after Ruan Nan Candle's reminder, he had no interest in this kind of stuff at all, instead he clicked into some posts about the door speculation.

This forum had existed six years ago, and users on the forum were still discussing what exactly the door was.

Was it future technology? Is it a gift from the gods? Or is it an alien experiment? There were countless speculations without answers, and none of them seemed to be reliable.

There were still some discussions on the forum about the world within the Gate, and Lin Qiushi briefly browsed through them, not finding any particularly useful information.

After he saw more than an hour, sleep came gradually, so he turned off his computer and lay back down on his bed.

This time, Lin Qiushi didn't lose sleep and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.

The next day, a clear and bright morning

As soon as Lin Qiushi came down to the first floor in the morning, he saw Cheng Qianli angrily arguing with his brother, not so much arguing, but rather a one-sided shattering.

"I've said I don't eat spicy food, why did you put spicy food on me, you don't care what I really like, you only care about yourself..." muttered Cheng Qianli, looking at the oil tea in front of him.

Cheng Yicher sat across from him with an expressionless face, "If you don't eat it, get out."

Cheng Qianli started to fake howl, but still reached out his hand to take the oil tea and started to eat. Lin Qiushi originally thought he couldn't eat spicy food, but it turned out that the product was simply screaming, his mouth said he didn't want to eat, but his body was honest, Lin Qiushi brushed his teeth out and saw that the bowl of oil tea was empty.

"I still want to eat a bowl." Cheng Qianli said, "Hey... you give me some spicy."

Lin Qiushi: ".......you're so funny.

Everyone gathered together to finish breakfast and went about their business. Lin Qiushi thought that the atmosphere in the villa would be tense, but after observing it, he realized that the atmosphere was actually quite relaxed. The second floor of the villa was a gym and a game room, and the fourth floor was a whole floor of studies, so there were places to go if you wanted to.

Cheng Qianli asked Lin Qiushi to go with him to pick up the toast and take it home, and Lin Qiushi obliged.

They drove indoors, and Lin Qiushi politely asked what Ruan Nam Candle was working on, and if he was about to go in the door.

"Yes." Cheng Qianli sat on the passenger seat chewing bubble gum, "It's probably just a few days, the later you get, the more accurate your premonition about the door will be, and you basically know when you're going to go in... Well... Of course, the exact time It's best not to tell anyone, except the person who's going to be in the door with you."

"So he's going in alone this time? Wouldn't it be dangerous?" Lin Qiushi was most worried about that.

"Danger is definitely danger." Cheng Qianli said, "It seems like someone else will accompany Ruan in there, I don't know who it is..."

"Oh." Lin Qiushi said, "I hope I can help in the future..."

Cheng Qianli looked at him and smiled, but didn't say anything.

For the next few days, Lin Qiushi didn't see much of Ruan Nan Candle, he seemed to have been very busy and spent very little time in the villa.

Lin Qiushi did become quite familiar with the other people in the villa.

Yi Manman was a twenty-three year old boy, and like Cheng Qianli was a chatterbox, as long as the two of them got together, then basically they could chatter all day, but he was a bit more mature than Cheng Qianli, and rarely lost his temper. Lu Yanxue was a little older than Yi Manman and was currently the only girl in the villa, she was ordinary looking and usually had basically no presence, she didn't look like someone with a lot of guts. However, according to Cheng Qianli, Lu Yanxue's performance in the door was amazing.

As for Cheng Qianli's brother, Cheng Yicher, in Cheng Qianli's words, "It's best to stay away from him, he's mentally ill..."

And given the relationship between the two, Lin Qiushi had reservations about that.

On the fifth day after entering the villa, Ruan Nan Candle, who had been nowhere to be seen, suddenly appeared. At that time, Lin Qiushi was planning to go upstairs to sleep, but as soon as he reached the corridor, a silhouette appeared out of nowhere in front of him. Lin Qiushi was shocked by this figure and fixed his eyes to see that it was Ruan Nancandle.

Ruan Nancandle's face was very pale, and he was holding the wall with his hand as if he might fall down at any moment. Lin Qiushi hurried forward to help him, "Nan Candle, are you alright?"

Ruan Nan Candle shook her head, "Help me into the room."

Lin Qiushi mmmed and helped Ruan Nan Candle into the bedroom.

Ruan Nan Candle's entire body fainted as soon as he dipped into the bed, Lin Qiushi was so frightened that he ran downstairs and called for someone, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation, he didn't know if he could be sent directly to the hospital.

Chen Fei came up and quickly checked Ruan Nanzhu's condition and said it was nothing serious, just too tired, but just to be on the safe side, he still went to the hospital.

Lin Qiushi was relieved at the news.

The first time he saw such a weak Ruan Nancang, his face was as white as a sheet of paper, the usual Ruan Nancang gave people the feeling of being incredibly reliable, as if as long as he was there, there was no need to worry about anything. Seeing this appearance of him, Lin Qiushi inevitably gave birth to a little heartache.

Chen Fei drove Ruan Nanzhu to the hospital, and Lin Qiushi accompanied him.

After registering in the emergency room, the doctor made a preliminary diagnosis and determined that there were no external injuries on Ruan Nan Candle's body and his physiological features were stable, that is, he was asleep.

"Fine." Chen Fei sighed, "Nothing serious, you keep an eye on him, I'm going out to make a call."

Lin Qiushi nodded.

Chen Fei went out for a while, but his face darkened when he came back, Lin Qiushi asked him what was wrong, he was silent for a moment and whispered, "The person who went in with Brother Ruan is gone."

Lin Qiushi stared.

"Just died." Chen Fei said, "Jumped... from the building."

Lin Qiushi shifted his gaze to Ruan Nan Candle and suddenly heaved with relief... Luckily, he... was still alive.

The author has something to say: Lin Qiushi: I love sucking cats.

Ruan Nan Candle: I love Lin Qiushi sucking cats.

Chestnut: meow meow meow?
