Haunted Places Live

Lynch called an ambulance and took the three of them to the hospital in the nearest town.On the way, he lied that the two Chu Yang were twins, and the three of them were robbed and separated while traveling together.Chu Yang kept staring at the blood-stained self with a sluggish expression like a puppet, and his scalp became numb.

Which real self is this?What happened to make it look like this?

When he arrived at the hospital, the result of the examination was that although his body was covered in blood, none of the wounds on his body were fatal, and a serious skin rupture seemed to be healing at an insanely fast speed.The wound on his back protruded like countless vines, just like the pattern on Chu Yang's ribs, but it just extended on the shoulder blade.

In addition, the other party seems to have severe amnesia.His brain CT was normal, and the MRI did not show any signs of injury. So far, his short-term memory has not been greatly affected, but his long-term memory has disappeared for some reason.Just like a newborn brain that has been erased of all stored content, it can't even remember many of the most basic things, can't even wear clothes, can't understand normal conversations, and speaks upside down and slurred.

He obviously used too many stigmata in a short period of time to produce such serious results.

Lin Qi considered whether to take his Chu Yang directly to find a door to return to the original reality.Anyway, Chu Yang with amnesia should not be in danger now.But when he saw Amnesia Chu Yang who was half lying on the hospital bed, with a blood transfusion inserted in his hand, observing everything around him with a timid blank expression, he couldn't bear it.

He is also Chu Yang, but he has experienced different events, made different choices, and has different memories.

No, to be precise, this amnesiac Chu Yang is probably the most original state of Chu Yang, a state that has not yet experienced everything.

And Chu Yang sat on a chair outside the ward, staring fixedly at the floor tiles under his feet.

"Xiao Yang?" Lin Qi came out of the ward, and saw Chu Yang holding his arms tightly, curled up into a ball, shaking his body back and forth slightly, and kept mumbling something.In the past, patients and family members seemed to think that he was a lunatic, and they always avoided taking a few steps, and no one dared to sit next to him.

Lin Qi sat gently next to Chu Yang, only to hear that Chu Yang kept repeating: Don't be afraid if it's okay, don't be afraid if it's okay... as if he was comforting himself.Lin Qi felt sore, and gently covered his hand on Chu Yang's hand that was tightly clenched until the knuckles turned white, "Xiao Yang?"

Chu Yang raised his head and said in a low voice, "When are we leaving? There are too many people here, it's not safe."

"We can leave anytime. But..." Lynch glanced at the door of the ward, "I'm wondering if we should take him with us."

Chu Yang rolled his eyes slightly, staring at the door, "Take him?"

"He doesn't remember anything, he can't take care of himself, he's not even this realistic person. Leave him here, don't know what will happen." Lynch said hesitantly, "But I still want to hear your opinion, after all... ..."

After all, he is you and you are him.

"What if...he is as dangerous as the masked me..." Chu Yang thought of the masked Chu Yang who said that he wanted to take his place in this reality... the feeling of uneasiness grew stronger.

"Looking at his state, he might have overdrawn the stigmata. If it really reaches that point, I doubt whether he can recover." Lynch sighed, "I don't think he will be a threat in the short term. Wait After we investigate your grandfather's house, I will find a nursing home to house him, so that at least he will not be left on the streets. And... as long as he does not choose to empathize, even if he recovers, I believe he will not be a bad person. After all, he is you~" After finishing speaking, he pinched Chu Yang's cheek with his hands.

Chu Yang couldn't laugh, his eyes were still fixed on the door of the ward, and he asked quietly, "If he becomes like this... what about his Lynch... what about his realistic you?"

"...Xiao Yang..."

"Could it have been..."

"Xiao Yang, don't think about it." Lin Qi held Chu Yang's face with both hands, making him meet his eyes, "I'm here well. I won't leave you, I promise."

Chu Yang said, "If his Lynch dies too, maybe I will really bring you bad luck."

"Don't listen to Bai Hongyu's nonsense! You can't believe what he said." Lin Qi frowned, trying hard to pick out from Chu Yang's mind the words about doom and curse that Bai Hongyu had instilled into Chu Yang's mind. Come out, even though he knew it might be difficult, "If you hadn't met me, you wouldn't have entered the parallel reality of the Tirosa Hotel because of the awakening of your observation power from the very beginning, and the thing marked by the hound would never have happened. If you insist on saying who brings bad luck to whom, I brought it to you, not you to me. Do you understand?"

Lynch's tone was harsh, and his eyes seemed to pierce the soul straight through the skull. Chu Yang couldn't refute a sense of spiritual oppression, so he could only slightly nod his head.

In the end, Chu Yang agreed to bring another self back to their reality.Lin Qi bought a set of clean clothes according to Chu Yang's figure from the outside, and asked Chu Yang to help Chu Yang, who lost his memory, change into them.Amnesiac Chu Yang saw Chu Yang approaching him with his coat in hand, suddenly stretched out his hand, touched Chu Yang's face lightly, and then touched his own face.Then even smiled.

This was the first time that Chu Yang with amnesia showed expressions other than confusion, bewilderment, uneasiness, and timidity.This world is chaotic and too strange to him, the only thing he can recognize is his own face.

Familiarity is safe and good, the most primitive instinct of human beings.

Seeing his smiling face, Chu Yang almost thought he was looking in a mirror if there was no scar on his right cheek.He also felt sad, and said softly, "Let's take you home, shall we?"

Amnesiac Chu Yang smiled and nodded.

When Chu Yang helped him change the hospital gown, the other party was very cooperative, as well-behaved as Chu Yang was when he was a child.Chu Yang knelt on the ground to help him put on his shoes, tied the shoelaces, raised his head, saw that the other party was looking at the bow tied on him curiously, and said something mysteriously, "From now on, shall I call you Chu Yi?"

Amnesiac Chu Yang blinked, then said softly, "Chu Yi?"

Chu Yang nodded.

The other self murmured again, "Chu Yi...is that me?" As he spoke, he pointed at himself.

Chu Yang hummed and smiled.

Chu Yang, who lost his memory... or Chu Yi, also hummed and smiled at him again.

"Xiao Yang, are you alright?" Lynch, who had been waiting outside the ward, knocked on the door.

Chu Yang opened the door and nodded to Lynch, "We are ready."

..................................................................

In the early morning three days later, it had just rained in Vancouver.The maple tree at the door has just begun to sprout buds, and water drops hang on the green leaf buds.

Chu Yang, who still barely slept, sat on the rocking chair under the porch, wrapped in a blanket, looking at the gradually brightening sky in a daze.The three of them arrived home yesterday afternoon, Chu Yi was placed in his childhood room, while he and Lynch lived in Grandpa's bedroom.

Under Chu Yang's eyes, thick bruises were condensed, and the bloodshot eyes almost covered the whites of the eyes.The lack of sleep for a long time made his reaction to everything a little slow. When he saw three people in gray trench coats walking slowly from a distance, he didn't even have any reaction at first.

Until he saw the three people with the same fanatical smiles on their faces, standing across the street and waving to him neatly, as if calling him to go halfway.

Chu Yang felt his body stiff, and his muscles trembled uncontrollably.He closed his eyes hard, and kept murmuring, "This is an illusion, this is an illusion, this is an illusion."But when he opened his eyes again, the three gray-clothed men were already standing on the grass in front of the old house, raising their heads and smiling at him.

"We know where you live, we know what you wear, we know what you eat, and we're watching you at all times."

"You are our angel. Free yourself! Free yourself!"

"The others are your burden. We'll get rid of them all. Nobody can stop you!!!"

Those people were just moving their lips quickly without even making a sound, but those voices seemed to be directly engraved in his mind.Chu Yang tightly covered his mouth with his hands, trying hard to breathe.

It's an illusion... It's an illusion... He must fight these crazy things... He must be brave...

But no matter how he told himself, the three of them suddenly started to step forward in unison, and the steps of the old house were approaching in large strides.

But at this moment, with a hand on his shoulder, Chu Yang screamed and jumped up, but was pulled into his arms by Lynch, and whispered in his ear, "Shh...shh...it's okay It's all right."

"Did you see them?" Chu Yang stared at the three men who were still smiling at him standing under the steps.

"See what?"

Chu Yang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried not to tremble in his voice, "It's okay, let's go back..."

He never looked back again, but he knew that the three men were still staring at him with unblinking eyes until Lynch closed the door.

"Woke you up?" Chu Yang asked softly, and walked to the kitchen to make coffee as if nothing had happened.

Lynch looked at his zombie-like face, and the worry between his brows became more serious.He fell asleep with Chu Yang in his arms last night. He thought it would make him feel more at ease, but he didn't expect that even this trick would be useless now.

But he put on a brisk smile, "I have contacted Dr. Wei, and she has already sent some medicine that can relieve the symptoms of hallucinations."

Pills only needed by schizophrenic patients... Chu Yang thought secretly.

But after using the stigmata twice, he has developed to the point of schizophrenia... How far is he from Chu Yi upstairs?

"There's nothing in the fridge. We have to go to the supermarket to get something."

"I'll go. You wait for me at home." Lynch said, putting his arms around Chu Yang's waist from behind, "From today onwards, I will be your almighty little butler~"

Chu Yang chuckled a few times, "The 'little' butler? The old butler, right?"

"Hey! Respecting the old and loving the young are the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. Don't always make fun of the age of the elderly."

But at this moment, there was a loud noise upstairs.Chu Yang hurriedly pushed Lin Qi away and rushed upstairs to his room, only to see Chu Yi standing among the piles of CDs scattered all over the floor, looking at him with panicked eyes as if he had done something wrong.

Those CDs were those that Chu Yang had listened to when she was a child. They included everything from classical music, jazz to pop music, and they were always crowded on the bookshelves on the wall, which obviously aroused Chu Yi's curiosity.Chu Yang couldn't laugh or cry, but he was also relieved, at least the other party didn't hurt him.

"What's the matter?" Lynch asked and chased after him. Seeing the mess in the room, he burst out laughing, "It seems that even if you lost your memory, your love for music has not diminished at all?"

Chu Yang glanced at him, "Hurry up and buy breakfast, I'll clean it up here..."

"McDonald's or Tim Horton?"

"Tim, just order whatever you want." Chu Yang had already squatted down and began to tidy up without complaint.Lynch grinned at the bewildered Chu Yi, "It's okay, it's all your own anyway." Then he turned around and prepared to go out.

Chu Yi squatted down, as if wanting to help.Seeing him pick up Bach's disc, Chu Yang frowned slightly, looking at the flying notes printed on the cover.With a thought, Chu Yang plugged in the plug of the CD player that had been dusty for more than ten years, reached out to take over the CD box, took out the disc and put it in the player, selected the track, and pressed play key.

In the next moment, the light and melodious cello music of the Overture No. [-] in G major diffused in the small room.

There was an obvious change in Chu Yi's expression, and the blank but empty eyes seemed to suddenly sparkle and light up.His mouth opened slightly, as if he could see the melody flying like falling feathers all over the sky. Gradually, the corners of his mouth rose and his eyes closed slightly, as if he had entered another ethereal and free world. His fingers moved slightly , Chu Yang recognized that it was the fingering method for pressing the strings when playing this piece of music...

It seems that not all memories have disappeared, maybe...Chu Yi still has the possibility to recover?

The author has something to say: After reading this chapter, will there be a cult hahahaha (～￣▽￣)～
