07
The small basement is only illuminated by a small night light.
The huge black shadow also revealed its true appearance under the illumination of the night light.
That's... "Dad".
He had his back to Chu Qi, and in front of him, a white jade foot was faintly visible.
"Dad" was breathing heavily.
Chu Qi lifted the curtain and walked in.
"What are you doing?" she asked coldly.
[Congratulations to the player for finding the fourth person]
The game broadcast sounded in my ears.
"Dad" was startled, turned around and saw Chu Qi, panic flashed across his face, "Son, why are you here?"
"I followed you." Chu Qi walked over the man. The game settings generally would not allow this kind of dungeon NPC to harm players, so even though he was a little kid now, Chu Qi was not afraid that his "father" would kill him.
A miserable-looking woman was lying against the wall, her clothes disheveled. After she found Chu Qi, she asked for help: "Your father is a pervert who imprisoned others. Please save me."
[Ding, congratulations to the host for finding out the truth about the fourth person]
[The copy of the cozy home has been bound to the player, I wish you a happy game]
As the owner of the copy, Chu Qi has the right to decide whether the copy NPCs stay or go. After obtaining the right to use the copy, Chu Qi immediately cleared out "Dad" and "Mom".
Looking at the miserable-looking woman in front of her, Chu Qi asked uncertainly, "Qiu Mu?"
"Who is Qiu Mu?" The female NPC looked puzzled. "Dad" disappeared in front of her, and she didn't react at all. "Why am I here? Weird, kid, do you know?"
Chu Qi held his forehead, helped the woman untie herself, and then sent her out of the basement.
The woman said goodbye to Chu Qi in a friendly manner.
Chu Qi sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at the chat history with Qiu Mu on the panel.
Chu Qi: Where are you?
The message fell on deaf ears and received no response.
In games, there are generally only two types of people you can't contact. The first type is those who have blocked you.
The second type is offline.
Let’s rule out the first one first.
Qiu Mu is offline?
Chu Qi frowned, realizing the bad situation, and immediately quit the game to look for Qiu Mu.
When she arrived at his house and knocked on the door, no one answered. Chu Qi kept knocking on the door while calling him.
Finally, ten minutes later, the sound of the door opening was heard.
The door opened, revealing Qiu Mu, who looked haggard. "I'm sorry, something happened. I have to log off early."
"What happened?"
Chu Qi stood at the door, and seeing that Qiu Mu had no intention of giving way to her, she couldn't help but ask, "Won't you invite me in and sit down?"
Qiu Mu's slender fingers clung to the door frame tightly, his frail body blocking the doorway, and he forced a smile: "The house is messy... maybe next time."
Chu Qi instinctively felt that something was wrong, and stared at Qiu Mu for a long time, pretending to agree with him: "Okay, then I'll come again next time. If you have any problems, remember to ask me for help, don't carry it alone."
Qiu Mu's expression softened a little, and he nodded gently: "Okay."
Chu Qi took advantage of the moment he relaxed, slipped through his arms and entered the house.
Qiu Mu's calm expression was broken, and he rushed in almost like a collapse, blocking Chu Qi's sight.
"Don't look....I'm sorry...I didn't mean to kill him..."
Incoherent.
He grabbed his hair and squatted down, biting his arm hard to suppress his intense desire to destroy everything.
"Who did you kill?"
Chu Qi squatted down, took Qiu Mu's hand, and comforted him: "There is no one else here, Qiu Mu, are you hallucinating?"
Hallucination?
Qiu Mu looked confused, "Uncle's body is right here, didn't you see it?"
He pointed to the blank living room floor.
"There's nothing here, you're seeing things."
Chu Qi pinched Qiu Mu's cheek, "Loosen your mouth, please? Don't hurt yourself... I will feel bad."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Mu quickly raised his eyes to look at Chu Qi. Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, he slowly relaxed.
Chu Qi hugged him and carried him to the sofa.
"Can you tell me what happened? I want to help you."
Chu Qi coaxed in a low voice, her hand slowly stroking Qiu Mu's back, trying to relax him.
He was really thin, thinner than the original owner when they first met, and he felt almost weightless when held in his arms.
"I killed my uncle..."
After a long while, Qiu Mu whispered, "I remember now. It was here that I killed my uncle... He would appear at home every once in a while. He was watching me. He wanted to seek revenge on me..."
"When did you kill your uncle?"
Chu Qi asked softly following his words, stroking his back more and more gently, almost treating him like a fragile porcelain doll.
Under Chu Qi's gentle questioning and soft comfort, Qiu Mu completely relaxed and let himself lie softly in his arms:
"Ten years ago... eleven years ago?... I don't remember. It was raining heavily that day, and the whole house was covered in blood..."
"I think you may have forgotten to take your medicine."
Chu Qi came to this conclusion after listening to his intermittent narration.
Qiu Mu was stunned: "Really?"
Chu Qi nodded seriously: "Come, I'll take you to buy medicine."
An hour later.
A psychiatric department.
After reading Qiu Mu's medical records, the doctor prescribed some medicine for him and asked Chu Qi to stay alone to talk.
"The patient has stopped taking medicine for half a year. Why is he coming to buy medicine just now? He cannot stop taking the medicine. He must finish the medicine prescribed this time. If there is no improvement, he must continue to take the medicine." The doctor frowned.
