Between life and death [unlimited]

Chapter 143 The Bad Seed

It was an almost hazy, somewhat chaotic feeling.

It was as if he had just fallen asleep and was about to fall asleep, Si Yufeng didn't know how long he had been in this half-dream and half-awake state.

His memory also seemed to be damaged, and there seemed to be only a few fragments of the mission in his mind.

Si Yufeng only remembers the last ones - the colorful fireworks blooming in front of his eyes, the terrifying grin on Uncle Bai's face, the severe pain of his body being torn apart in an instant, and...

Before he died, the heart-piercing call of his teammates, and if he hadn't been dazzled, there would have been a heart-wrenching expression on his iceberg face that hadn't changed for thousands of years.

His memory seems to be frozen in that moment as if he glanced at it for thousands of years.

The current Si Yufeng is very eager, even ardently hoped that he can return to the living space as soon as possible.Because he wanted to know whether it was because of himself that Jiang Lai showed such a painful expression at that time.

If this is really the case, then even if Si Yufeng is allowed to experience the excruciating pain of dying like a cramp and a bone-pull, he will be willing to die a thousand times just to see Jiang Shi's expression again. , Ten thousand times.

He is not afraid of death.

The only thing in this world that can make him panic is probably the belief in his heart that may fall at any time.

But the reality is often not as Si Yufeng hoped.

In the past, at the moment of completing the task, the cold and very familiar notification sound from the system would always resound in the ears of the players.

But this time, the electronically synthesized sound did not appear as soon as Si Yufeng expected.

Bored, he had no choice but to think carefully about the details of this mission, and some things that he might have overlooked, in order not to keep his mind from falling into a drowsy sleep.

Si Yufeng chose to start with the more interesting place, that is, matching each player's exclusive "sin" for all players and NPCs.

Susan, who represents "selfishness" and Shu Hua, who represents "greed", needless to say, but he later discovered that Huajing's mother's abnormal behavior, such as using expired skin care products for her daughter, trying to feed her daughter fat, Hua Jing's mother can be classified as "jealous".

These behaviors may seem very incomprehensible to ordinary people, but they may indeed exist.A mother is jealous of her daughter, possibly because of her natural personality. She can't tolerate her daughter being prettier or better than herself, so she does things that hurt her daughter.

As for Huajing, who is good at acting, Si Yufeng currently has no idea about the "sin" she represents.

Because Huajing usually behaves very peacefully, she is also the "lubricant" for the relationship between everyone, just like Si Yufeng who always takes the initiative to stand up and smooth things over for everyone.As for her shortcomings, Si Yufeng hadn't found them yet, so there was no way to assign a specific "crime" to her.

But the "sin" represented by Cinderella is more obvious.

Si Yufeng knew that Cinderella must represent "lust" when he first saw her making those charming movements and hearing her words that seduced Shen Yingying.

Also, Bai Xue, who once deliberately set a trap for Jiang Shang.Her soft and waxy voice, coupled with her pitiful and pure appearance, made her look like a real "white lotus".However, Si Yufeng did not find any in the Bible that could correspond to Bai Xue's "sin".

Bai Xue's characteristic should be that she is good at disguising. She can pretend to be weak and pitiful, and finally achieve her goal by playing tricks behind the scenes or framing others.In this case, it is fine to call her "jealous" or "drug hatred".

So when thinking about this, Si Yufeng suddenly thought - must their previous thinking be correct?

Does everyone have to have a kind of sin?Then why can't some NPCs find the specific corresponding "sins"?

Now that doubts arose, Si Yufeng decided to take another look at the players.

Needless to say, Shen Yingying, who became able to eat immediately after entering the mission must represent the "gluttony" that is common in sins, and it also represents the exuberant appetite in youth;

And Jiang Xun's crime is also easy to find - if Si Yufeng's guess is correct, his teammate must be "murder", after all, Jiang Xun's previous occupation was a killer;

There is also Si Yufeng himself, he is also very accurate in positioning his "sin", it should be "deception";

But when it was Shen Yu's turn and Zhang Jian, Si Yufeng couldn't accurately find the characteristics from the two of them.

For example, Zhang Jian.If we talk about his biggest characteristic, it should be frankness and straightforwardness. If "frankness" is also a sin, then Zhang Jian's sin is definitely this...

wrong!

Thinking of this, Si Yufeng suddenly thought of what he had just thought, and immediately felt that if he reasoned according to the principle of "sin", he couldn't justify himself at all.

This probably also shows that the premise they assumed before may have been wrong from the very beginning—that is to say, the meaning of the task name "Original Sin" does not necessarily refer to the "sin" of each of them, and may refers to something else.

As for what this other thing is, Si Yufeng hasn't fully considered it yet.

——It may be each person's own personality, like what I just said, Zhang Jian's frankness, Bai Xue's white lotus... These are also their own unique personalities;

——It may also be that each person is different from others, such as Susan's love to pretend to be cute, Shu Hua's greed for petty gains, Zhang Jian's open mouth... These are also completely different from others specialty.

However, if we think about these two aspects, it is easy to explain the contradiction between these players and NPCs.

It seems that "original sin" should not simply refer to everyone's sins as they thought before.But in this way, what is the real meaning of "original sin"?

The specific content of the task will not be mentioned for the time being.Before that, Si Yufeng had been entangled in whether this mission was a supernatural event or a man-made murder. In fact, he has not yet reached a final conclusion.

Just like the scene where Uncle Bai dragged him and Zhang Jian to die together at the end, Si Yufeng couldn't analyze whether it was because Uncle Bai was possessed by a devil at that moment, or the suppressed manic emotion suddenly broke out—in short, he There is no way to define the background of this mission now.

Maybe they got too few clues.

Si Yufeng thought to himself, or the most crucial clue, the players haven't found it yet.

However, Si Yufeng, who had performed a memory review, discovered another interesting phenomenon in the mission: that is, the NPCs that appeared in the mission all had mother-daughter or father-daughter relationships with others.

For example, the mother-daughter relationship between Huajing and Huajing's mother is well known to everyone. Susan, the first to die, had two children in her hometown. It seems that even Cinderella has her own children, and everyone will know about it later. Uncle Bai, the security guard, is actually Bai Xue's biological father...

Almost every NPC has been deliberately marked as a family relationship by the system, so what does this kind of mother-daughter or father-daughter relationship really mean?Could this be a reminder from the system to players that is not easy to find?

In addition, there is also the young PD who was killed by a serial female killer, but appeared in front of everyone at the very beginning. Is his appearance haunted by ghosts or is there another reason?

And, the serial female killer who killed ten people, although it has been mentioned in TV advertisements and newspapers, has never really appeared in the field of vision of the players.I don't know if this clue is the "Ecstasy Formation" deliberately set up by the system to confuse players?

Countless ideas suddenly flooded into Si Yufeng's mind, but he still couldn't combine them with the rough model he deduced before, but he knew that now he should only be able to completely intersperse these trivial fragments The key rule of this - just like a bracelet made by a girl, he now only lacks a "chain rope" that can string all the beads together.

In this chaotic and disorderly situation, after an unknown period of time, it seemed that Si Yufeng, who had his eyes closed, finally felt a ray of light from the outside world.

For some reason, he couldn't open his eyes during the whole process.

When the long-lost bright light slowly came into Si Yufeng's eyes, he just enjoyed the warm feeling quietly. Then, he suddenly heard the sound of someone walking beside him.

"Da da……"

The sound of footsteps gradually changed from light to heavy.Si Yufeng couldn't help thinking: Who could it be?

Immediately afterwards, there was a slight movement of the chair being dragged on the ground and the button of the desk lamp being unscrewed in his ears.Then, the voices that Si Yufeng could hear became more and more——

"Hello...I'm Dr. Shu from Anping Hospital."

Si Yufeng could tell that it was a female voice with a very gentle voice.

"Hello Dr. Shu." Soon another male voice said, "I'm glad you came here to help us."

"Should be, this is also my duty." The female doctor was very professional, and after the simple politeness, she asked again: "...Then shall we start now?"

"Ok."

Immediately afterwards, that Dr. Shu read out the shocking content on the page in a soft voice: "The murderer killed more than ten people successively from July to September 20X0... The method is cruel and the nature is extremely bad... During the investigation, it was found that the prisoner had serious mental problems..."

Although he couldn't hear it very clearly, when he heard these special words, Si Yufeng immediately thought of it - could it be that what he heard now was the audio related to that serial female killer?Before he could think about it further, Si Yufeng suddenly couldn't hear any sound from the outside world again.The male and female voices seemed to disappear out of thin air.

But this situation didn't last long, and that warm light returned to Si Yufeng's eyes again.

"...Wait, Doctor Shu."

It was still the rough male voice before, he suddenly interrupted: "What did she say just now? I didn't understand it all the time, and I remember that she seemed to have said similar things before..."

"It sounds like... a poem?" Dr. Shu repeated to the man in her gentle voice while listening carefully.

This time Si Yufeng also heard it very clearly——

"

When I reach the top,

you are not there;

after a long time,

I found you still absent;

Hope you never come back.

When we are completely lost,

No one is immune to…”

"Doctor Shu, what does this mean?" The rough male voice asked again after listening, "Do you know... what does she mean?"

"I'm very sorry... But in fact, I can't say clearly. It's like sometimes, in life, we may not notice the things we inadvertently see or the names of people we hear, but it is possible will be projected in our dreams..."

The doctor looked at the pretty but mean-looking woman in the isolation room, and added: "Officer, you also know that what a mental patient with a split personality like her says casually may not have any specific meaning."

"Yes, but Dr. Shu, she has repeated this sentence many times... Shouldn't it have some special meaning?"

"Since this is the case..." The doctor seemed to be flipping through the patient's information in his hand, the pages were rattling, "Let me see, these are her previous cases..."

Dr. Shu's eyes finally fixed on a certain page of the case in her hand.

"Well... In my opinion, this passage is more like one of her personalities—that is, the way she said in the diagnosis last time, that special personality..."

"Special personality?" The male policeman didn't seem to understand, and suddenly asked: "By the way, Dr. Shu... You said before, what kind of personality does she have?"

"There are ten in total. According to personality, they are jealousy, giant baby, greed, mania, disguise, killing, fraud, innocence, straightforwardness, and bad kind."

"Bad species...?"

"Yes, in fact, each of us has the most primitive part hidden in our hearts. We also call it the 'self'. The explanation in the Bible is that 'in the womb, people have sin' , we can also define this property as 'original sin'."

The doctor continued: "Besides, she seems to have named each of her personalities. They are basically her previous names, and besides the name, there is a rule between her different personalities—that is, Almost all personalities have children."

"Then if you say that, it should be related to her own experience of having children..." The policeman seemed to figure out the pattern of the period, and then he asked again: "... her 'bad' personality What is your name, is it her real name?"

"Yes, this has been confirmed." The doctor nodded affirmatively and said, "It's her own name——"

"Huajing."

The author has something to say: About the task of this volume:

In a nutshell, it is a battle between different personalities of serial female killers for the sovereignty of this body.

(The ten personalities represent different participants, but Shen Yu is not counted, so there will be warning words of "fusion" at the very beginning.)

About that poem:

From the perspective of personality, this is easier to interpret—it probably means that I hope to only have my own personality left.This is also the clue I put at the very beginning. I wonder if any little clever ghosts have guessed it~~

About the deceased:

They were all killed by Hua Jing, she was the first personality to wake up.

Susan died of being drugged (that glass of water), Shu Hua died of being crushed to death (the floor lamp on the first floor), Uncle Bai went crazy (that glass of wine), Zhang Jian was paralyzed (that glass of wine)
