Chapter 862 Memory Recovery (Update 1)
In an instant, Ruan Qi's head buzzed and went blank.
Everything around was blurred at this moment, leaving only the lifeguard's strange and creepy eyes.
Those eyes were what Ruan Qi dared not recall the most, and they were also the nightmare that woke her up countless times at night.
——Jiang Chunian!
Even though his appearance had changed, Ruan Qi still recognized him with certainty.
That lifeguard must be Jiang Chunian!
The person who hypnotized her was also Jiang Chunian!
Ruan Qi's face instantly turned pale. She stood there motionless, her legs seemingly nailed shut, unable to move.
She stared at the man in the distance and saw the corners of his lips curled up in a twisted smile.
"Sleep...sleep...my little baby..."
He seemed to be singing silently, and the smile on his lips grew wider and wider.
Ruan Qi's face became paler and paler.
At this moment, a scream suddenly rang out from downstairs, followed by a deafening explosion.
Boom——!!!
A massive explosion tore through the tranquility of the amusement park. The ground shook, and so did the three-story building.
Everyone on the ground screamed in panic. Thick smoke billowed up from all directions, and everyone was instantly thrown into chaos.
"What happened? What exploded?"
"Where did the smoke come from? How could an amusement park explode?"
"Run! Everyone, run!"
In panic, no one had time to find the exact location of the explosion, and everyone fled quickly in the opposite direction of the rolling smoke.
Only Xixi, Hema and Molan went against the flow of people and rushed madly towards the three-story building.
On the rooftop, Ruan Qi looked at the billowing smoke below, feeling dizzy.
A picture appeared in her mind. In the picture, there was also billowing smoke, but it was late at night, and the flames were rampant and the smoke was billowing in the dark night.
"Help me—help me!"
"It hurts! I don't want to die! Please, save me!"
"You burned us to death! Why don't you die yet!"
A shrill scream burst out from the screen, tightly entangling Ruan Qi like a devil's claw.
Ruan Qi covered her ears, but couldn't block the voice in her head.
“Wuwuwu…”
Another childish cry sounded in Ruan Qi's ears.
Ruan Qi was in a daze for a few seconds before realizing that it was Chuanchuan who was crying.
She ignored her fear for Jiang Chunian and squatted down to pick up Chuanchuan.
"Little boy, don't cry." Ruan Qi's voice was hoarse.
Chuanchuan hugged her neck tightly and burst into tears, "Boss, what was that sound just now? It's so scary! I want to find my mom! I want to go home!"
Ruan Qi felt a pang of pain in her heart when she heard him crying.
Chuanchuan was implicated by her. If it weren't for her, the child wouldn't have encountered these things today.
Ruan Qi felt guilty and hugged him tightly in his arms: "Okay, I'll take you home now. Don't be afraid, Chuanchuan, the boss will protect you."
After Ruan Qi finished speaking, she wanted to fasten the straps and carry Chuanchuan again.
But at this moment, a light laugh floated over along with the billowing smoke.
Ruan Qi felt a sudden numbness on the back of his head.
She had a premonition that something was wrong and looked up suddenly——
In the distance, Jiang Chunian slowly raised a black remote control in his hand.
When Ruan Qi saw the remote control, he felt something was wrong and put Chuanchuan down and rushed over.
However, no matter how fast she ran, she couldn't catch up with Jiang Chunian's speed—
He placed his finger on the black remote and pressed it lightly.
Boom——!!!
On the rooftop of the third floor, countless rubble shot up into the sky around the square surround swimming pool.
A huge explosion, accompanied by thick smoke and billowing flames, instantly surrounded the entire roof.
The flying rocks danced wildly with the airflow of the explosion, and a stone the size of an adult man's fist flew straight towards the back of Chuanchuan's head.
"Kawakawa!!!"
Ruan Qi didn't bother to catch Jiang Chunian, and turned around and rushed towards Chuanchuan as fast as he could.
Chuanchuan was so frightened at this time that he just stood there crying loudly.
Ruan Qi ignored the rocks falling on him from all around and threw Chuan Chuan to the ground, taking the brunt of the flying rocks for him.
The stone was as big as an adult man's fist. Even though Ruan Qi was an ancient warrior, he was still a mortal.
Such a big stone hit her head hard, and her head was bleeding immediately.
Perhaps due to the excessive emotional fluctuations, the damaged sea of consciousness collapsed again. After being hit on the head, Ruan Qi felt dizzy.
Chuanchuan's cries and the explosions around her were still ringing in her ears. She raised her head with great effort and saw Jiang Chunian standing at the edge of the small building through the blazing flames.
Jiang Chunian stood at the only place on the roof that had not exploded, and waved at her with a smile.
"goodbye."
He said silently, then leaned back and jumped off the roof.
As Jiang Chunian left, the last place on the roof that had not exploded was also surrounded by flames.
The raging fire from all directions was like a circular wall of fire, trapping Ruan Qi and Chuan Chuan inside.
Ruan Qi no longer had time to pursue Jiang Chunian.
She held Chuanchuan in her arms and looked at the raging fire all around. Her brain nerves seemed to be cut one by one by a sharp blade, and her face turned pale with pain.
Images flashed through her mind uncontrollably.
The thick night, the blazing fire, the shrill screams... those memories that were once forgotten, slowly revived in this fire.
"As a perfect porcelain doll, you shouldn't have any feelings. Number Three and Number Five, you choose one, and I'll kill him."
At the long dining table, nine-year-old Ruan Qi sat next to Jiang Chunian with an expressionless face.
At the other end of the dining table, there were two chairs, with two little boys tied to each chair.
Jiang Chunian stood up with a smile, picked up the knife on the table, and walked towards the two little boys with graceful steps.
"Baby, which one do you choose?" He put the blade of his dinner knife to the throat of one of the little boys. "This one will die, or the other one will die?"
Both little boys burst into tears of fear.
Little Ruanqi's face was pale, and her lips were tightly pursed. She avoided Jiang Chunian's gaze, unwilling to make a choice.
Jiang Chunian stared at her for a while, then suddenly chuckled.
"Since you don't want to choose, then... just kill them all."
As the words fell, the silver knife flashed a cold light under the light.
Ruan Qi turned around hurriedly, but before she could say anything to stop him, Jiang Chunian had already stabbed the dinner knife into the throat of little boy number three.
In an instant, blood gushed out, the little boy's throat made a few noises, and then his body tilted and fell along the chair.
Little Ruan Qi had never seen such a cruel scene. Her tears suddenly flowed, and she shook her head like crazy: "No! No! Stop it!"
puff--!
Another knife.
Jiang Chunian seemed not to hear Ruan Qi's screams. He moved his wrist and casually cut the throat of the other little boy.
Blood gushed out again, and there was no other color in Xiao Ruanqi's eyes, only a sea of blood red.
