I don't want to change the way I look.

I want to wait for Chu Mie, wait for my younger brother, at least my appearance will not change, so they won't be able to find me.Even if I can't wait for them, it's good if I can wait for someone who knows me, at least I can bring my words to those who still love me.

——Shen Chiyu from the last minute

"Then do you know Lin Jinhan?"

"I don't know, who is this?" Shen Chiyu listened to Chu Mie's rapid breathing in confusion, and heard him continue to ask in a trembling voice: "Then what about Guan Qinyue? Do you know?"

"Uh..." She didn't understand why Chu Mie suddenly changed her attitude, and said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I don't remember the name either."

Chu Mie's breath stopped, and he continuously called out "Brother Zhou", "Aunt Qin", "Song Zhiyi"...including the names of all his teammates in the past, as if he was trying his luck. He spoke faster and faster, and finally Shen Chiyu replied "" Do you know?" time was gone, I could only quietly listen to Chu Mie finish saying everyone's names in a trembling voice.

In the severe pain and suffocation in his chest, he finished reporting everyone's names with difficulty, almost crying in sadness: "These people...do you really not remember any of them?"

"This..." Shen Chiyu sighed for a long time, and said with some confusion and distress: "I'm sorry, I really, really don't know them all."

After confirming that Shen Chiyu doesn't remember everyone in the past, Chu Mie murmured in a daze, "But why do you only remember me?"

Is it because all teammates are trapped in the dead instance, only he is now free to go to different instances, so remember him?

But why is he the only one who can freely go to different copies?

He knew that his former teammates would forget him, just like when he met Song Zhiyi back then, he didn't know she was his former teammate.It was only when he faced this matter directly that he realized that many things could not be accepted without mental preparation.

Shen Chiyu didn't remember anything.

According to past dungeons, even if she could remember it, she would probably only remember it when the dungeon was almost over.

This means that there are only two situations: the first one, Shen Chiyu will not remember them until the copy disappears; the second one, Shen Chiyu only remembers them soon, and has to face the reality of being separated from them immediately.

What's more - the dead players are basically the bosses in the dungeon, even if he doesn't want to think about it, Shen Chiyu is probably the boss of this dungeon.

Perhaps under the effect of mirage consciousness, Shen Chiyu would even have killing intent towards Shen Huaiyun as a player.What about Shen Huaiyun?Can you really fight back?

When Chu Mie was still a player, he was bound as a teammate with Shen Chiyu.This is the reason why Shen Huaiyun and Chu Mie were able to share the same dungeon with Shen Chiyu's mobile phone shortly after entering the dungeon.

But why did you come to Mirror City this time?It was as if it had been specially arranged by the mirage.

Chu Mie suddenly felt a little regretful. The purpose of their coming to the dungeon now is to destroy the dungeon, and the boss will disappear after the dungeon is destroyed. Is it possible that Shen Huaiyun will end Shen Chiyu himself in the future?

That would be too cruel.

…………

"What's wrong, Chu Mie?" She seemed to sense Chu Mie's silence and depression, and asked cautiously, "Did I say something wrong?"

"No, it's nothing." Chu Mi looked down and raised his hand to look at the ring on his hand. The restlessness and uneasiness in his heart dissipated a little, but his voice was still a little choked up.

"By the way, how long will it take for you to come to my house?" She said expectantly, "I'm so bored now, I'm the only one at home now."

"Are you alone?" Chu Mie felt something was wrong: "Didn't you just say that you finished eating? Why are you alone in your family now?"

"This..." She hesitated for a moment, and said helplessly, "My parents have gone out, so I am the only one at home now!"

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention it just now." She lowered her voice and reminded: "Don't go to the street where the red lanterns are hung, and go another way, you know?"

"Why?" It was already dark now, Chu Mie had just walked all the way and didn't see any red lanterns hanging anywhere.

Suddenly, Chu Mie looked up at the red road in front of him, and stopped abruptly: "Is there any reason not to go?"

"Of course not!" She said anxiously, "Don't listen to me and go there on purpose! They all go that way at night, and if they meet someone who is not good, no one can Keep you safe!"

"They? Who?" Chu Mi stared intently at the road in front of him covered with red lanterns, and he could vaguely see the crowded flow of people... as if they were gathering for a fair.

"Don't worry about them, come to me quickly!"

"En." Chu Mie responded, but hung up the phone directly in the next second, and turned off the phone directly, so as not to expose him by the sound of the phone later.

He lowered his center of gravity, held the knife in his hand, and carefully approached the "no approach" road hidden in the darkness.

There are many people on the road, and when the lights are not obvious, they are densely connected together.Chu Mie squinted his eyes and couldn't see what these people looked like at all, but soon saw a very tall person slowly moving forward in the crowd, and that person was almost as tall as the hanging lantern.

When he was approaching the red lantern, Chu Mie saw the sharp parrot-like beak on his face through the light of the red lantern, which was not what a normal person should look like at all.

No wonder Shen Chiyu didn't let him come to this street.

The man with the sharp beak walked forward slowly with the flow of people, when he was about to pass a red lantern, he suddenly turned his head, and his somewhat ferocious mouth shrouded in red light pointed straight at Chu Mie's direction.

"Let me go!" He screamed, pushing and shoving the people around him, trying to go in the direction of Chu Mie.

"It's so noisy!" "What are you pushing!"

People's angry and irritable voices were mixed. There were men and women. After someone was hit, he hit the sharp-beaked man in the opposite direction and cursed: "Walk well, if you bother me again, I will kill you!"

The man with the sharp beak was also angry, and he ignored Chu Mie, and started wrestling with the person who hit him.

The fight between them spread to other people around. Some people hid aside with disgust and indifference, while others joined the battle angrily.

The beating was extremely bloody and violent. The sharp-beaked man was bitten and torn apart by other people early on. In the end, less than half of the dozen or so people were beaten.The onlookers booed, as if regretting that the good show ended so quickly, and then continued to rush to the other side of the street stepping on the bones of the people who had just died.

Chu Mie could see clearly from the side.

The whole street was full of all kinds of monsters, and such a terrifying quantity——Chu Mie had never seen it before.

Where are the ends of the street?Looking at the dense crowd, Chu Mie secretly noted down the location of this road, and planned to find out when there were fewer people.

He stepped back while being vigilant, and after confirming that he kept a safe distance, he turned and quickly left the long street that seemed to be flowing with black liquid.

…………

When Chu Mie turned on the phone again, he saw a dozen missed calls popping up quickly on the phone, and the caller was naturally Shen Chiyu.

He hesitated for a moment and called back.

"What the hell are you doing!" Her angry and worried voice was on the other end of the phone: "Why did you hang up on me suddenly? You don't really want to go to the street with red lanterns, do you?"

"I didn't go." Chu Mie said in his heart, "I just took a closer look."

She asked, "Then what are you doing when you turn off the phone?"

Chu Mian looked at the 52% battery on the phone, opened his eyes and said nonsense: "I want to save power."

"..."

She was a little speechless, and sighed helplessly: "Okay, I'm dead, come here quickly, don't make any trouble!"

"Understood." Chu Mie hung up the phone, and continued to drive in the direction of her home according to the original route.

About 10 minutes later, Chu Mie stopped in front of an apartment.

He had never been to Shen Chiyu's home in reality, so he didn't know if it was the same as Shen Chiyu's real home.

None of the surrounding residents' lights were turned on, only Shen Chiyu's house was on, as if there were only people in her house here.

He looked around, but didn't feel any potential danger, only that kind of unpopular coldness.

"Buzz-"

A text message was sent from the mobile phone: [Are you already there? ]

The time of sending this text message was very coincidental, as if seeing him here with his own eyes.

"!"

The strong sight made him look up at the brightly lit house, and noticed that a corner of the house that had been drawn with curtains was suddenly opened, revealing half of a human face.

[The door opens, you come in directly. ]

Chu Mie hesitated on the spot, hid the knife quietly, walked to the gate of this house, and pushed the door lightly.

"Squeak-"

The door opened a crack, proving that the owner of the house did not lock the door.

Just as Chu Mie stretched out his hand to push the door open, he saw a pale and thin hand lightly pawing at the door, opening the door before him.

"It's finally here?" The girl in slippers lazily tied her hair up with clips, her bright red lips were raised, and there was a conspicuous little mole at the corner of her mouth, which added a bit of beauty and playfulness to her.

This is Shen Chiyu, the same person in Chu Mie's memory.

"What are you still doing there?"

She stepped out of the way and looked at Chu Mie with a smile: "I think my house is beautiful, do you want to take a photo as a souvenir? Then why not take a photo with me, a big beauty."

As she spoke, she winked at Chu Mie.

Chu Mie: "..."

You and Shen Huaiyun are really siblings.

Chu Mie entered the house, looked at the furnishings in the whole house, trying to find traces of life of people other than Shen Chiyu and her parents.

But got nothing.

"What are you looking at?" Shen Chiyu walked slowly to Chu Mie's side, tilted his head and looked at him: "Who is the Shen Huaiyun you mentioned just now? It's interesting that I have the same surname as Shen, and you just met him." people?"

Chu Mie turned his face to look at her, then looked away expressionlessly, and said with reddened ears, "He is my boyfriend."

"Boyfriend?!" Shen Chiyu exclaimed, "You actually like boys?"

Chu Mie's rare shame, because Shen Chiyu's focus completely faded away, his heart sank.

What she cared about was not Shen Huaiyun, but her boyfriend.

It seems that Shen Chiyu really doesn't remember Shen Huaiyun at all.

"It's not like boys." Chu Mie's heart was a little blocked, and he lowered his eyes to hide the loss and sadness in his eyes, but happened to see the bandage on Shen Chiyu's calf.

"You are hurt?"

Shen Chiyu took a step back, his body instinctively hid the wound on his calf, and he smiled helplessly: "I just... accidentally got burned."

"Boiled water?" Chu Mie looked at the area of ​​the bandage on her leg, and felt that the bandage at the wound was faintly bloody, and it didn't look like it was scalded by boiling water.

"Hey hey..." Shen Chiyu kept backing up and said, "Okay, don't look at me now! Help me think about my house being haunted!"

"You're not even afraid of monsters, but are you afraid of being haunted?" Chu Mie wanted to understand the background of this dungeon as soon as possible, and began to talk to Shen Chiyu.

"It's been said that they are not monsters." Shen Chiyu said helplessly: "Although everyone has to wear masks and live in human skin during the day, at night they can become what they desire. No one is allowed to laugh at them." The way it looks at night, isn't this the default rule for everyone?"

"Looking forward?" Chu Mie asked in surprise, "Can the look change according to my thoughts?"

"Do you really think you can change 72?" Shen Chiyu jokingly said: "The appearance at night is to directly express your deepest desire. For example, if your heart desires to eat, then at night you will become a person whose stomach is about to explode Man; you love money, and maybe you'll be a man studded with gems and gold—"

Doesn't this mean that the people in this dungeon will turn into monsters at night according to their own desires?

"I see." Chu Mie nodded thoughtfully, and changed the topic: "Where is the room where you said you saw blood? Take me to see it."

"Okay." Shen Chiyu nodded, and led Chu Mie to a room, pointing to the blood that had dried up on the wall and said, "This is the room, I saw this after dinner."

"Really?" Chu Mie saw the photo placed by the bedside, it was a photo of Shen Chiyu and his parents, and there was no figure of Shen Huaiyun.

He picked up the group photo and pretended to be unconscious and said, "It is said that at night, you will become what you want most in your heart-then why are you the same as during the day?"

"I……"

Chu Mi turned his head to look at Shen Chiyu with a blank expression, with sadness and helplessness in his eyes: "Do you have no desire in your heart, or - your desire is to maintain your original appearance?"

"Why did you choose this way?" Chu Mie said softly, "Is it because you are afraid that the people who find here will not recognize you?"

Is it because even if she forgets, she still wants to keep her original appearance, subconsciously hoping that someone who cares will find her?
