Kaleidoscope of Death

The death of his girlfriend obviously had a serious impact on Kurezaki.

Lin Qiushi was afraid that something would happen to him, so he contacted him often, but Wu Qiuzhi was very absent-minded about Lin Qiushi's contact. He had obviously put his whole heart and soul into his girlfriend's death, and his appearance was getting more and more haggard every day, even when Lin Qiushi visited him every other day, he was shocked by his appearance.

"Are you alright? Kurezaki?" Lin Qiushi asked him worriedly.

Wu Qiqi sat on top of the sofa, staring at the phone in his hand, indifferent to Lin Qiushi's question, before slowly shaking his head a long while later.

Lin Qiushi said, "Wu Qi..." He didn't know how to comfort his friend who had lost his beloved one.

Back then, when Lin Qiushi had come to this city alone, it was almost as if he had left his hometown. He was indifferent and had no special friends around him, except for Wu Qi. Lin Qiushi still remembers that he was lying at home with a high fever and passed out, but it was Wu Qiuzhi who found that he was not at work and sent him to the hospital in person.

Lin Qiushi remembered all these, and his relationship with Kurenzaki was getting better and better. However, he never expected that something like this would happen to Wu Qi.

The investigation on Ruan Nanzhu's side is also continuing, the scope of the investigation is mainly in the hospital. Usually, people who knew they were going to die were seriously ill, and it was strange for such a seriously ill patient to suddenly recover.

However, while Lin Qiushi was waiting for the results of Ruan Nam Candle's investigation, he received a call from Wu Qi one night.

Wu Qi's tone on the phone was very excited, he said, "Lin Qiushi, I got it, I got it!"

Lin Qiushi was shocked to hear his tone and said, "What do you know, Wu Qi?"

Kuzaki said, "I know why she jumped - it's the door, it's the door!" He seemed to be afraid that Lin Qiushi wouldn't understand and repeated several times, "As long as I'm dying, I'll be able to get in!"

The hairs on Lin Qiushi's back stood up, and he understood what Wu Qi's meaning was, saying, "Wu Qi, calm down!!!"

However it was already too late, and Kurezaki hung up the phone.

When Lin Qiushi called again, he had already turned off his phone.

It was already early in the morning, Lin Qiushi was still in bed in his pajamas, but he couldn't care less, so he got up from the bed and ran out. He also called the police to report that his friend had tried to commit suicide.

An hour's drive had never been so long, and by the time Lin Qiushi arrived at Kurezaki's house, the police had already arrived early. There were a few neighbors standing outside the door watching the fun, the hallway was noisy, and Lin Qiushi gasped and raced to arrive.

He rushed into Kurezaki's house, gasping for breath, in time to rest, and saw what had happened.

There was blood everywhere in Kurezaki's living room, and Kurezaki was leaning on the sofa, not moving. Lin Qiushi heard someone calling him, but he was in a trance, he walked up to Kurezaki and reached out his hand to probe Kurezaki's nose.

It was gone, Kurezaki was dead.

This knowledge caused Lin Qiushi's entire body to become dazed, and he didn't even know how he should react. This was the second time Lin Qiushi had witnessed the death of someone close to him, the first time it was Li Dongyuan, who he didn't know that well, so he didn't have much empathy, and this time it was Wu Zeqi, who he had been friends with for many years. Moreover, it seemed that he didn't die in the door, but stupidly tried to enter the door by committing suicide.

Lin Qiushi slowly took a few steps back, feeling dizzy.

"Excuse me, who are you?" Someone's voice reached his ears, as if the police officer who had gotten here first was questioning him about something.

"I'm the one who called the police." Lin Qiushi also heard his own voice, but it seemed so far away from him, so far away that he wasn't sure if he was saying it himself, "I'm his friend..."

The scene was then cordoned off and police began investigating the cause of death.

Kurezaki was about to die by slitting his wrists, when he called Lin Qiushi. Slitting one's wrists was a very painful way to die, one had to cut extremely deeply, and even had to make up a cut or two on one's wrist while the blood was clotting.

Lin Qiushi didn't know how long he had been standing outside the house, but then Ruan Nanzhu came anyway.

As soon as he came, he pressed Lin Qiushi's shoulder, and Lin Qiushi turned his head and saw his beautiful face.

"Are you alright, Lin Qiushi." Ruan Nan Candle's voice had a bit of worry in it.

"It's fine, I'm fine." Lin Qiushi shook his head, "I didn't think that he would actually do that."

Ruan Nan Candle didn't say anything and gently rubbed Lin Qiushi's back with her hand, trying to give him some comfort.

Lin Qiushi hung his head and laughed bitterly, "I want to smoke."

Ruan Nan Candle was silent for a moment, took out sugar from his pocket, peeled off the paper and put it in Lin Qiushi's mouth, "Eat the sugar, it's better than smoking."

The sweet fruity taste melted in Lin Qiushi's mouth, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I think, someone is harming Wu Qiqi." According to his understanding of Wu Qi, Wu Qi would never be someone who would just commit suicide.

Ruan Nan Candle said, "We'll find out."

Lin Qiushi reached out and rubbed the corners of his eyes. If the death of Wu Qi's girlfriend had only made him feel bad about those people, then Wu Qi's suicide had turned the bad feeling in his heart into an unspeakable anger.

That day, Lin Qiushi went home late, and when he returned, he couldn't sleep even after tossing and turning on his bed.

Finally, he crawled up and sat in front of the computer and turned it on. Someone in the forum sent him a private message, and the one who sent it was Gu Longming, who he had brought through the previous door.

Gu Longming said, "Little brother, you're still not sleeping so late."

When Lin Qiushi saw this little brother, he immediately remembered Gu Longming's muscular appearance, and he sent a series of ellipses over.

Gu Longming said, "Little brother, why aren't you talking." It was also followed by a shy expression.

Lin Qiushi: "Saying human words."

Gu Longming: "What's up big brother, what happened?"

Lin Qiushi: "....... "How does this drawing look wrong.

Gu Longming said, "How is the wound recovering? I was slashed by that woman inside the door and came out to lie in the hospital for over a month, but I was just released a few days ago."

Lin Qiushi said that the recovery was fine. He had passed through a bit more doors than Gu Longming, so his recovery ability was naturally stronger, and although the wound seemed to be more severe than Gu Longming's, he was quickly discharged from the hospital.

Gu Longming: "It's good that you've recovered, I was quite worried about you."

Lin Qiushi: "Tell me straight if there's something."

Gu Longming: "It's that... I'll be the next door, can I still find you?"

Lin Qiushi looked at what Gu Longming had typed, and after a moment of silence, he said, "We'll talk about it then."

Lin Qiushi didn't directly reject it was good enough, Gu Longming was quite funny, and he stumbled over some random things, Lin Qiushi just chatted with him sentence by sentence, until around six in the morning, Ruan Nanzhu came over and knocked on his door.

The first thing Ruan Nan Candle said when he opened the door was, "Checked it out."

Lin Qiushi directly stood up from his chair: "What's going on?"

Ruan Nan Candle waved at Lin Qiushi, "Come here."

Lin Qiushi followed Ruan Nan Candle into the bedroom, only to discover that Ruan Nan Candle had actually gotten his hands on Wu Qi's computer.

Ruan Nan Candle pointed at Wu Qi's computer screen and said, "Look."

Lin Qiushi bent down and saw the image on the screen.

The screen was familiar to Lin Qiushi, it was the screen of the private message on the forum... he had just used it. The content of the private message was a chat between Kurezaki and another person, and that person told Kurezaki about the mechanism of entering the door, adding a sentence at the end that a dying person would be able to enter the door.

Kurezaki said, "Really?

The man: naturally it's true, your girlfriend was killed just inside the door.

Kurezaki: Thank you, I see, thank you.

It would have been impossible for Kurezaki to believe this person on a normal day, but his girlfriend's death had obviously hit him too hard, and he actually listened to it without the slightest doubt.

Lin Qiushi looked at the chat logs, the fist hanging at his side clenched up, his voice low: "Why did they do this..." killing Kurezaki's girlfriend wasn't enough, why would they do it to Kurezaki?

Ruan Nam Candle said, "Human lives are worthless in their hands." He said, "Lin Qiushi, calm down."

Lin Qiushi looked at Ruan Nan Candle. In fact he was calm, he felt that he had never been so calm. He said, "I want to know who they really are."

Ruan Nam Candle nodded, "Soon, it'll take some time." Although the people inside the hospital were easy to line up, it wasn't so easy to uncover the people who were in contact with the hospital.

But Ruan Nan Candle had the confidence that he could find them, as long as he was given enough time.

Lin Qiushi looked at the chat logs and said, "Can I have this computer?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Take it."

This was in the end the relic of Lin Qiushi's best friend, Lin Qiushi picked up the computer and turned around to walk away.

Ruan Nan Candle looked at Lin Qiushi's back and his eyes showed some worry. He had felt that Lin Qiushi was a bit different from normal people before, and obviously apart from what happened to Wu Qi, this difference was completely exposed.

Lin Qiushi was angry, yet frighteningly calm, even controlling his emotions in a short period of time. By heart, if Ruan Nanzhu had encountered such a thing, but not necessarily better than Lin Qiushi.

A few days later, Lin Qiushi attended Wu Qiuzhi's funeral.

The funeral was ordinary, and Lin Qiushi saw his parents crying their hearts out at the funeral. He actually thought about his own death for a moment, if he died, would anyone cry like that?

Ruan Nan Candle was here with Lin Qiushi, he seemed to have seen Lin Qiushi's thoughts reaching out and pressing his hand on Lin Qiushi's shoulder, he said, "We are here." His voice was gentle, "Even if I'm no longer here, there's still Cheng Qianli, even if Cheng Qianli is no longer here, there's still Chen Fei..."

"Someone will always cry for you." Ruan Nan Candle did so.

Lin Qiushi's shoulders loosened slightly and he said, "Yeah."

After the funeral, Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nan Candle walked out together. While they were walking to the door, Lin Qiushi's footsteps suddenly stopped and he looked towards the crowd with a puzzled look.

Ruan Nan Candle asked him, "What's wrong?"

Lin Qiushi: "There's someone who gave me a very familiar feeling just now..." his eyes darted around the crowd, "It's like, I've seen it somewhere."

In the meantime, Ruan Nan Candle: "Is it a friend of Wu Qi's?"

"Those who come to the funeral are naturally all friends." Lin Qiushi couldn't remember the source of this familiar feeling for a moment, until he reached the car, and then it dawned on him, "I think I saw that person at Kurezaki's girlfriend's birthday party, and we even had dinner together. But Kurezaki told me privately that he didn't like this guy." Because this man was too close to Wu Qi's girlfriend.

Ruan Nan Candle's expression became serious: "Are you sure?"

"OK." Lin Qiushi said, "It's true."

Ruan Nan Candle nodded, indicating that he understood, and looking at Lin Qiushi's serious face, he couldn't resist the itch to reach out and pinch the tips of Lin Qiushi's ears again.

Lin Qiushi was baffled by the pinching, the tips of his ears moved involuntarily, then Ruan Nan Candle looked unbearable, and pinched several times until the tips of his ears were red, Lin Qiushi said helplessly, "Ruan Nan Candle, what bad habits you have!" He dodged several times without dodging.

Ruan Nanzhu, however, was righteous: "Who told you to have such lovely ears."

Lin Qiushi thought to forget about it, don't bother with this person in general.

Lin Qiushi's discovery provided Ruan Nan Candle with new ideas, and the progress of the search began to get faster.

One afternoon three days later, Ruan Nan Candle walked to Lin Qiushi's house with a stack of information, Lin Qiushi was reading the forum, he threw the information in front of Lin Qiushi and said, "Found it."

Lin Qiushi's breath caught, he took the information and quickly looked through it, he saw an unfamiliar name on it: Cui Xueyi.

It had written about Cui Xueyi's life, the most important of which was the records of his medical appointments for some time.

Cui Xueyi had lung cancer, and when he went for a checkup, the doctor said that the situation was very bad, the cancer cells had metastasized, and he only had three months at most.

But in the last few days, Cui Xueyi's health suddenly improved, his body was like some kind of medicine to cure all diseases, and the advanced stage of lung cancer directly turned into the early stage.

This was something that Lin Qiushi had experienced himself, he stared at the information and said, "He lied to He Frostya?" Frosty Ho is Kuzaki's girlfriend.

"Not everyone has such good luck," Ruan Nan Candle said, "to be able to meet the right organization, some people may still be confused after the fifth and sixth door, unable to figure out the rules inside the door or even know that the forum exists."

The reason Lin Qiushi was able to adapt to the door so quickly was because there was a guide like Ruan Nan Candle. Meeting Ruan Nan Candle was Lin Qiushi's luck, but He Frost Ya, apparently, was not so lucky.

"The fact that Ho Frost Ya can say such words means that at least she knows how to take the door." Ruan Nam Candle said, "But Cui Xueyi clearly came prepared."

Ruan Nan Candle continued, "We can reasonably guess that he lied to Ho Frost Ya. Usually, when people know that they can't kill inside the door, they will lose some caution towards their own kind, perhaps Cui Xueyi is taking advantage of this psychology of Ho Frost Ya..."

Lin Qiushi said, "He contacted Wu Qi after that?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "It's always more guilty to kill someone's girlfriend, so it's better to cut off the root of the problem." He laughed mockingly, "It seems that this Cui Xueyi, is also a ruthless person."

Lin Qiushi's finger pressed on top of Cui Xueyi's picture, his eyes almost staring a hole in it, he said, "Is there any way..."

Although Lin Qiushi didn't say anything, Ruan Nan Candle already understood Lin Qiushi's meaning, he said, "Naturally, there is something." He pointed at the computer that Lin Qiushi had on, "This forum is the base camp of the people within the gate, if the organization that helps Cui Xueyi needs newbies, they will look for targets on the forum, we just have to wait for them."

Lin Qiushi exhaled a breath and said, "Good."

Because of Wu Qi's incident, the atmosphere at the villa was quite heavy these past few days, and as soon as Lin Qiushi went downstairs, he saw Zhuo Feiquan arguing with Cheng Qianli.

Zhuo Feiquan was the Luo Qianshan who was inside the ninth door of Cheng Yicher with his sister, he had a dark face and glared at Cheng Qianli, "I'm asking you something, why don't you say anything!"

Cheng Qianli said, "Say what?" He was still jerking toast in his hand, where he was in the mood to care what Chofizumi had said.

Zhuo Feiquan: "My customers aren't the ones you pried away! What the hell do you want!"

Cheng Qianli: "I've told you, I'm not Cheng Yicher, I'm Cheng Qianli!"

Zhuo Feiquan: "Don't fucking pretend, you're obviously Cheng Yixie!"

Cheng Qianli: "........" how come he's here again, he hasn't been mistaken for him and his brother for a long time.

Lin Qiushi felt really funny watching from the side, he said from a distance, "That is indeed Cheng Qianli."

Zhuo Feiquan gave him a suspicious glance at the news, obviously still in disbelief.

"Really, he's Cheng Qianli." Lin Qiushi said, "Cheng Yicher went out in the morning and hasn't returned yet."

Zhuo Feiquan said, "Fuck, then he said he's waiting for me inside the villa, the bastard!"

Lin Qiushi: "The two of them are actually quite different, you really can't recognize them?"

Zhuo Feiquan muttered, "Obviously it looks the same."

Lin Qiushi laughed dumbly, Cheng Qianli was beside him angrily patting his Keji's fat ass, Toast turned his head aggrievedly to look at Cheng Qianli, as if to say what are you doing patting me ah, it hurts me.

Anyway, Zhuo Feiquan had been pitied many times by Cheng Yicher after he dug out his identity, and even became a frequent visitor to the villa for a while. In the end, Ruan Nanzhu couldn't even look at it anymore and tactfully spoke to Cheng Yicher, which eased the matter.

But today Cheng Yicher didn't seem to be in a good mood, and Zhuo Feiquan was then pitied by Cheng Yicher again.

After Zhuo Feiquan left, Cheng Qianli muttered why his brother always had to mess with Zhuo Feiquan ah, was there something special about Zhuo Feiquan.

Lin Qiushi listened to Cheng Qianli's words, but he remembered the necklace with his sister's picture on it hanging from Zhuo Feiquan's neck, and he thought that in a way, Zhuo Feiquan was indeed special.

After confirming his plan with Lin Qiushi, Ruan Nanzhu began to fish on the forum.

He registered an account and began to disguise himself as a newcomer on the forum. Of course, pretending to be a newcomer was a discipline, it wasn't just a matter of going up and saying that you were a newcomer. The style of Ruan Nan Candle's account was very low-key, sometimes he would follow up with posts asking simpler questions, the words and the acerbity of his actions were revealing that the person underneath the account wasn't a seasoned veteran.

When he did these things, Lin Qiushi watched on and said, "Does this really work?"

"Naturally, it's useful." Ruan Nan Candle said, "How else could Gu Longming have lured you in?"

Lin Qiushi: "..." he was silent for a moment, thinking that it wasn't because he was simple.

"If they notice me, they will definitely check." Ruan Nan Candle Dao, "But it's okay, I've arranged my real identity under this account, if they really want to check, it won't have much impact."

"Then how are we going to trick them into entering then?" Lin Qiushi asked. Both he and Ruan Nam Candle were senior doors, and they were exposed as soon as they entered the door.

Ruan Nan Candle said, "No need to lie to them, it will definitely be their door we enter when the time comes."

It dawned on Lin Qiushi, right when you think about it, if you want to get the newcomers hooked, it's definitely a veteran who promises to take them through the door, and more attractive is a veteran who jumps through the door, just like Xia in the door with the human mirror at the time. Newcomers are almost always tricked in.

Like a seasoned hunter waiting for his prey to take the bait, Nguyen Nam Candle was in no hurry, laying down enticing bait that quickly attracted the attention of certain interested parties.

Lin Qiushi looked on in awe and said, "Ruan Nam Candle, if you go as a net scammer, you can definitely get rich."

Ruan Nam Candle replied back, "Wouldn't I also get rich if I didn't become a net scammer."

Lin Qiushi said, "They didn't suspect you?"

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Suspicion is sure, but after that, you have to take the bait." He said indifferently, "There's no rush, take your time."

Lin Qiushi was simply impressed with him.

Talking slowly like that, the group of people seemed to have let go of him after investigating Ruan Nan Candle's true identity and began to reveal some information. For example, they could take Ruan Nam Candle through the door, and once they got past that door, they could jump over several dangerous doors.

Ruan Nam Candle acted hesitant at first, which was a normal reaction, because no one would trust the person across the internet that easily.

Until the person on the other end gave many examples of people who had brought doors themselves, and attempted to ask Nguyen Nam Candle out to meet them.

In Nguyen Nam Candle's profile, he was a small white-collar working in a company, conscientious and compliant all day long, a very non-existent person.

Such a person was the best target for that organization.

Lin Qiushi looked at Ruan Nan Candle and said, "You don't look like a white collar with little presence by any means." Ruan Nan Candle was gorgeous and would attract attention wherever she went.

Who knew that Ruan Nan Candle was showing a subtle smile at Lin Qiushi and then spoke softly, "Lin Qiushi, how are you doing with your pseudo-voice training?"

Lin Qiushi: "..." he suddenly had a very bad feeling.
