Chapter 152 Q&A
Only the mother and daughter remained in the room.
Guan Yan cried as she peeled the oranges, and finally couldn't take it anymore, so she buried her face in the oranges.
Guan Zhiwei sighed: "Mom, listen to me, I'm not crazy. I have a system on me, and this system is messing with me. It wants me to give up everything I have now and go to ancient times with it to work for it. When I refuse, it bullies me, makes it impossible for me to survive in this era, and makes me lose heart and go with it."
Guan Yan raised her face and nodded vigorously: "I think so too."
"Tell me quickly, what kind of background did it set for me? What about the Shanghe Village massacre?"
"You've been... abducted."
Guan Zhiwei was sold to a remote mountain village. The mountains were so deep and high that there were mountains in front of her and mountains behind her. There were towering peaks and many wild animals. There was only one road leading out of the village.
The villagers lived a semi-isolated life, and no one wanted to stay in this place. When boys got married, they had to buy their children from outside the village.
She had been missing for two years, and when she was found, she was covered in blood.
Most of the villagers died from poisoning, while a small number were hacked to death with machetes.
The scene was simulated several times, confirming that it was indeed her who did it; the evidence is conclusive.
The only point of contention is whether she was criminally responsible, because she was mentally unstable at the time. She could lie in bed motionless for a whole day, occasionally widening her eyes and rolling them around; she would also suddenly erupt, charging around wildly, muttering words that no one could understand.
The forensic agency has now issued a report stating that the individual lacks the capacity to bear criminal responsibility, but the case has not been closed and nothing has been settled.
After listening, Guan Zhiwei remained silent for a moment, then said with tears in her eyes, "Mom, you must have had a very hard time these past years. You got sick, I was lost, and now I've found myself and I'm in this state."
"I'm not tired, you are."
"Damn system! I want to find it and chop it to pieces a hundred times!" Guan Zhiwei touched her head and said, "I remember finding it, but I just can't remember where I threw it."
Guan Yan: "..."
Guan Zhiwei was very perceptive. Just by glancing at her seemingly sad but actually sad expression, she knew that she still thought she was crazy.
Good heavens, how can a normal person prove that they are normal?
She racked her brains for a long time, and then suddenly she understood.
The system burdened her with such a huge murder case. If she were a normal person, she would have to die. Being abnormal is the best thing.
"Zhiwei, your friend is coming to see you later. The hospital has a rule that too many people can come to visit at the same time, so I won't be there. Don't be afraid."
"Mom! I'm a normal person! But given the current situation, let's just keep it to ourselves and I won't tell anyone else. You don't need to worry too much about me, let's just live a normal life."
"……good."
My friend came over in the afternoon.
Guan Zhiwei was surprised that it was Jun Yuan who came. Was he a friend?
This time he came alone, not as a police officer, and not to record anything. He just chatted with Guan Zhiwei as someone her age, like a friend.
Junyuan said very sincerely, "I think the system you mentioned is very feasible. You're not crazy. They don't believe you, but I do. Tell me more about your time as emperor."
Guan Zhiwei glanced at him: "I don't want to prove that I'm a normal person anymore. I suddenly realized that I can't prove to you that the system really exists. The system has also set such a terrifying background for me. If I were normal, I would die. It's better to say that I'm crazy."
"Your thinking is so clear, you're definitely a normal person."
"Right, you're smart."
"I've always felt that bipolar disorder is a genius's disease, while depression is a sign of highly sensitive people who can't handle information, leading to illness. In your story, you must have experienced sadness too, right? Like Yaozhuang and Sister Ning, why doesn't Sister Ning have a name?"
Guan Zhiwei rarely encountered someone so patient in discussing the system with her, especially since the person even resembled an old acquaintance.
So she couldn't help but start talking to the other person. "I don't know what Sister Ning's name is. Nobody has ever mentioned her name. Women in ancient times probably didn't have given names, only surnames."
"Then how did you know about Yaozhuang, and why it's called Yaozhuang?"
"That's what everyone calls him, Brother Yao, Brother Zhuang."
What are everyone's names?
"Black Second Brother? Dog Tooth?"
"These are all nicknames. What are they called specifically?"
Guan Zhiwei froze for a moment, then said, "They're all from the bottom of society, so they probably don't have proper names. Back then, weren't there many people called 'Dog Poop' or 'Dog Egg'?"
“You’re right.” Jun Yuan adjusted his posture.
He casually asked, "Speaking of dog poop and dog eggs, it reminds me of the old days when people loved to name their children after dogs, and almost every household could keep a dog. Do you like dogs?"
"I like it, it's very loyal."
Have you ever owned a dog?
"I've never raised one."
"So, do you think Dogtooth is loyal?"
“He is very loyal, but I feel nothing. My heart is as cold as ice and snow.”
Guan Zhiwei sighed and lowered her eyes: "I was bruised and battered in that place, but it didn't hurt at all. I have a martial arts score of 100. But when I lay in bed at night, I started thinking about my mother and cried. But I couldn't cry loudly because I am the emperor and I have to save face."
Jun Yuan moved his lips, but for a moment he couldn't bear to ask any more questions.
She was trafficked and must have suffered a lot. She brainwashed herself, thinking she was strong enough to take a beating without feeling pain. She missed home and her mother, but dared not cry loudly because she would be beaten if she did. She brainwashed herself over and over again until she finally believed it herself.
Being forced to do farm work is part of the farming system, being forced to cook is part of the gourmet system. She needs to give herself a reasonable explanation, or she'll go crazy.
She's gone mad.
Jun Yuan's heart softened for a moment, but it was quickly replaced by his professionalism. He continued to press: "You don't have any deep feelings for Guan Huaihuai, so why were you so angry when you saw her being disliked and beaten? Why did you say that you would exterminate ten generations of her family for her sake?"
“I am the emperor, and the prince consort is slapping me in the face! Of course I have to kill him. Just like you, your father dared to rebel, so I killed both of you.” Guan Zhiwei blurted out.
Jun Yuan laughed: "Didn't you say last time that you would give me a very high official position?"
Guan Zhiwei retorted confidently, "That's right, Empress. And then you, as the empress's relatives, interfered in politics, trying to seize the throne—that's unacceptable! And then you ask me if I love you?"
Jun Yuan: "..."
Guan Zhiwei blinked: "Actually, I love you quite a bit. You're good-looking and have a great figure."
