Chapter 870: The Innocent Landlord and the Pretty Tenant (31)

Li Gui did not remember much about his childhood, but Anzi did.

Ever since he started working for the founder of Qionghua Hospital, his father had changed. Every time he came home, he would smell heavily of perfume and would often complain about why God did not allow him to be as rich as Song Ming.

If he had money, he would be able to live in a big house, drive a luxury car, and everyone would look up to him. When he was drunk, he would also point at his wife and say, "Then I can find a beautiful wife who doesn't have to show my face to me!"

The quarrels between his father and mother became more and more frequent, and sometimes they would even throw things. Even if he did not have a job outside, his father would not come back for a long time.

Then, Anzi discovered that his mother had changed too.

She became more and more violent and hysterical. After each beating, she would hold the child and cry helplessly.

Anzi didn't know what went wrong between the adults. Even though he was often treated violently, every time his mother held him and cried and apologized, he would forget the pain and comfort his mother not to cry.

When the Chinese New Year was approaching, his father came home late one night.

Anzi woke up from his sleep, afraid that his parents would fight again, so he walked to the door carefully, stuck to the door of the room, and listened to the conversation outside.

"Really, believe me, everyone in the Reincarnation Society does this." The father's voice was full of enthusiasm, and he said excitedly: "As long as I show loyalty to the leader and get God's recognition, I can change my destiny. Then I will be a rich man, and you will be a rich man's wife, and we will live a life of luxury, isn't that good?"

"I only have one son, An Zi, and I can't give up him."

"Wife, wake up! As long as we change our destiny, we will have money and status, and then we will have as many children as you want!"

The woman did not respond.

The man softened his tone and adopted a gentle policy, "Wife, actually I've been very painful during this period. I reflected on myself and I shouldn't have neglected you, but I didn't want to. It's because I was under too much pressure at work, and I was obsessed for a while, so I looked for women outside to vent my stress."

"But those women are not as good as you. We have been married for so many years, don't you understand me? The woman in my heart has always been you."

"I swear to you, as long as we change our fate this time, I will definitely be loyal, stay with you forever, and love you forever. If I break my oath, let me die miserably!"

The woman's eyes flashed, and she fell into hesitation and entanglement.

Anzi lay at the door. He didn't understand what his parents were discussing. He just thought that his father said he should be nice to his mother, and their family could return to the way they were before.

His father came home and really didn't leave. He changed his impatient attitude and bought Anzi a lot of snacks and toys. He also took him to the amusement park, which was one of Anzi's few happy memories.

On the day after the Chinese New Year, before dawn, Anzi was secretly awakened by his mother. He put on his clothes in a daze and followed his mother to hide in an alley.

The mother looked haggard, and whispered to him, "Hide here, don't go home."

Anzi grabbed the corner of her clothes, "Mom, why?"

The woman's expression was complicated and the child couldn't understand it. She lowered her voice, "Anyway, I told you to hide here, so you hide here, Anzi, there will be bad people at home, and you will be arrested if you go home!"

The boy's body trembled. The

woman's emotions fluctuated again. She grabbed the child's shoulders and told him fiercely, "Remember, don't eat other people's food. There are bad people in this world. Only mother is the best person to you. Anzi, you have to be obedient!"

Tears welled up in Anzi's eyes, and he nodded gently, "Yes, I will be obedient."

The woman left soon.

He hid in the alley for a long time. When he saw someone passing by, he would hide in a corner. Day after day, he could only pass the time with the few glass beads he picked up.

Sometimes his mother would come to him with food. He wanted to ask her when he could go home, but his mother was getting thinner and thinner, and the bruises on her face were getting more and more. He didn't dare to ask. He just thought that his mother still remembered to come to him, which meant that his mother loved him, and that was enough.

The young child was not greedy. He was content with just this little happiness. One day, his mother came to the alley again.

"Anzi, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. Your father said he wants to divorce me. He wants to have a baby with another woman. I can't live without him." The exhausted mother hugged her son and burst into tears. "Anzi, I'm sorry..."

Behind the mother, there were several tall men. They looked at the child in her arms with greedy eyes, especially the man in the middle, who looked the most eager.

That was his father.

The boy hugged his mother, patted her back gently with his little hands, and said softly: "It's okay, Mom."

In the basement of Qionghua Hospital, there are many cages, where different animals are kept. The children with gray eyes are gathered together and have to learn the principles of the Reincarnation Society every day. They understand that it is a rare opportunity for them to become one of the candidates for the "Gatekeeper".

"Only those who persevere can become the 'gatekeepers' of the 'new god'. This is your honor and the honor of your family! The moment the world changes, everyone will remember your names!"

Their postures were distorted and they lost their human appearance. Many people could not hold on and died in a half-human appearance. The roars of animals, the wailing of children, and the wild laughter of humans mixed together. The sad absurdity continued in the basement for several years.

At the moment when the pure white twisted thing was born, people were excited.

They had longed for success, but when they really succeeded, they faced things that could not be understood by common sense and did not belong to this world. One by one, they lost their minds and fell into madness.

The crazy smell of blood awakened the souls who were deprived of their talents and abilities and died as "materials", and the massacre began.

In order to control the situation, Song Ming spent a lot of money to gather talented people and tried to eliminate these ghosts.

Someone realized that something was wrong. When he realized the inside story, he finally chose to turn against the people when they surrounded and killed the ghosts. He used all his strength to wrap up the Rose Building and isolate it from the world.

Those talented people could no longer get close to the building, but correspondingly, the ghosts in the building could not leave.

Such enormous power naturally has a price. This person was also trapped in the Rose Building. As time passed, he was slowly assimilated and became one of the ghosts.
