"I think you can try cooking for yourself." The black shadow leaned behind Chi Shen, pushed his glasses and said.
Chi Shen nodded and said, "We can try after I persuade my roommate in the kitchen to come out. She has been hiding in the cupboard under the gas stove, and the gas stove cannot be lit."
Ji Xingchen thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go and persuade her."
Chi Shen: “Come on.”
After returning home, Chi Shen first inquired about the progress of Gui Lian's salvation. After receiving the usual reply that there was no progress, Chi Shen picked up the remote control, turned off the repeated drowning scene, patted the red-clothed female ghost, and asked her to let go of Gui Lian.
Ghost Face breathed a sigh of relief and cried with joy: "Are you finally giving up!?"
Chi Shen: "Senior year students will also be given time to rest, so take a break first."
Ghostface wailed: "...No!"
Then Chi Shen went to the small terrace. He had already chosen the lounge chairs and needed to tidy it up, and also arrange the flowers that Ji Xingchen mentioned.
After tidying up the small terrace for a while, Chi Shen picked up his mobile phone and started playing games.
He was playing the pixel-style horror game that Li Xu had made before. He played it again to see what Li Xu expressed through this game.
When he played this game before, he felt that the plot was particularly touching. Now it seems that this is based on Li Xu's real experience. Every line of dialogue is full of Li Xu's emotions, and people who play the game can naturally feel it.
I played the game again from the beginning, and it was almost 12 o'clock. Because I played with an exploratory attitude, Chi Shen discovered many things that he had not discovered before. The BOSS of this game is Li Xu, and the protagonist is Li Xu's girlfriend.
From the beginning to the end, this game looks like the protagonist is redeeming the BOSS, that is, Li Xu's girlfriend is redeeming Li Xu, but the reality is that the person who died is Li Xu's girlfriend, not Li Xu himself.
With such a role-reversal relationship... Li Xu might have wished that he was the one who died.
Chi Shen didn't know what happened between the two, but when he thought about the dream in which Li Xu was tortured in the bathtub by the drowned female ghost, this made Li Xu in reality feel redeemed. Chi Shen guessed that Li Xu had been blaming himself for his girlfriend's death.
Now that Li Xu can no longer see his "girlfriend" and no one wants to drown him anymore, this puts Li Xu in pain, so Li Xu can't sleep, and becomes more and more haggard, even affecting his work progress.
"I think as an employee, we should consider the future of the company." Chi Shen suddenly said.
Ji Xingchen, who had just finished persuading the ghost in the kitchen and was about to return to the shadow of Chi Shen, said, "Yes."
"Our boss has run into some trouble. For the sake of future progress, I think I need to help him solve it." Chi Shen said.
Ji Xingchen: “…Yeah.”
Chi Shen thought for a moment and said with relief: "It's because I love this job and want to make a good game."
Ji Xingchen: "Don't use too drastic methods."
Chi Shen: "I'll pay attention."
After thinking about it, Chi Shen put down his phone, washed up and went to bed!
Before going to bed, Chi Shen turned off the lights, sat on the bed, and stared at Ji Xingchen No. 2 on the opposite wall. Although he didn't know why, Ji Xingchen no longer accompanied him to sleep at night, so Chi Shen just used this time to do something else.
If Ji Xingchen wanted to know how he died, then asking Ji Xingchen's corpse would obviously be the simplest and most direct way.
The light from outside the window shone in, casting a layer of bleak white light on Ji Xingchen No. 2 and the red line on his body, but because of his handsome face, he looked strange yet beautiful.
"You don't want to communicate today?"
"Good night then."
When the sun shone through the window and fell on Chi Shen's eyelids, Chi Shen felt a chill again. He calmly got up, snatched his quilt back from the red-clothed ghost girl, and looked towards the door: "Where is Ji Xingchen?"
The red-dressed female ghost snatched the quilt back and folded it happily: "He said he wanted to avoid suspicion!"
Chi Shen: "He said he wanted to avoid suspicion so he asked you to come in, but he didn't come in himself?"
The red-dressed female ghost happily folded the quilt: "He told me to go out too and not to peek at you changing clothes!"
Sure enough, after folding the quilt, the female ghost in red went out, and considerately helped Chi Shen close the bedroom door. Chi Shen looked at Ji Xingchen No. 2 thoughtfully. Isn't he watching here every day?
Chi Shen didn't dwell on these questions for too long. He changed his clothes, washed up, and went to work.
When he walked into the living room, he saw Ji Xingchen in the kitchen. A female ghost with blood and tears all over the floor was talking to him.
Seeing Chi Shen coming out, the female ghost immediately crawled back under the cupboard.
Ji Xingchen then turned around and looked at Chi Shen, still looking calm: "You have to go out before 8:30, so you don't miss breakfast."
Chi Shen nodded to show that he understood. He picked up the red-dressed female ghost with one hand and grabbed the ghost face with the other: "You two come with me today."
The ghost face immediately recovered: "I don't need to study... No, have you been saved?"
"Today is a month off, let's go."
Ghost Face burst into tears: "Senior year students also have a month off, that's great!"
As a person who loves his work, Chi Shen naturally takes the initiative to solve problems when his company encounters them. Today at work, Chi Shen took the initiative to talk to Li Xu, expressing that he is a folk lover and asked if Li Xu needed any special methods to help him fall asleep.
Li Xu said doubtfully: "Really?"
"Don't worry, I have studied this method many times and used it on many people. There has not been a single negative review. Everyone who has used it says it is good and helps them fall asleep in one second!" Chi Shen said confidently.
Li Xu obviously had a headache due to insomnia. He pressed the solar plexus: "Let's try it."
"Take a sip of hot water first, then close your eyes." Chi Shen said.
Watching Li Xu do as he was told, Chi Shen said softly, "Imagine yourself floating on the ocean..."
Li Xu knew nothing about what happened next. He just felt a chill on his head and then he lost consciousness.
Looking at the fainted Li Xu, Ghost Face said in an extremely distrustful tone: "Fall asleep in one second?"
Ji Xingchen emerged from Chi Shen’s shadow: “Being knocked unconscious is also considered falling asleep in one second.”
Chi Shen smiled and said, "How can you say he was knocked unconscious? I didn't do anything to him. If you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance. He fell asleep on his own."
Ghost Face: "...Nothing wrong."
"Open the door." Chi Shen grabbed the female ghost in red.
The ghost face moved slightly, and the passage leading to Li Xu's dream opened again.
Coming back here, Chi Shen confirmed once again that this place indeed had the same feeling as in the Death Game.
This time, as soon as they came in, it was pouring rain. Chi Shen grabbed the red-clothed female ghost and the terrified ghost face in his hands. The dark clouds in the sky gathered into howling faces. The rain fell on his body and turned into crying ghost faces and drilled into his clothes.
However, those ghost faces only got halfway through and then retreated frantically. The black air that overflowed from Chi Shen's body grabbed the raindrops that were retreating slowly and tore them into pieces.
Chi Shen walked forward in the rain. When he reached the bridge, he suddenly saw a black umbrella lying there quietly.
A woman in a floral dress holding a floral umbrella was standing on the bridge. She glanced at Chi Shen, then turned and walked to the other side of the bridge.
"Thank you." Chi Shen said, walked over and picked up the black umbrella.
After crossing the bridge, Chi Shen once again came to the neighborhood where Li Xu lived. The walls here were covered with transparent crying faces, each of which was howling at the people who came before.
The girl in a floral dress was also standing at the entrance of the community, while the little girl Huang Lingling was standing in the security room, wearing a yellow duck raincoat, watching Chi Shen walk into the community.
Downstairs in the community, Chi Shen saw the dark shadow guarding the entrance of the corridor again. He opened his white teeth and tried to smile at Chi Shen. Maybe he hadn't smiled for too long, so he forgot how to smile. This smile looked very scary, and Chi Shen also felt his intention.
Chi Shen also smiled back politely.
"We... all hope that you can make this... rain! Stop!"
An incoherent and vague voice came from behind him, but Chi Shen understood it.
"I'll try my best." Chi Shen said.
He didn't know where this emotional ghost came from, nor did he know what would happen here after this ghost disappeared, so he couldn't give any guarantees.
The shadow bowed to him and watched him go upstairs.
This time, Chi Shen went through the front door. He put the female ghost in red behind him, signaled her not to make a sound, and then knocked on Li Xu's door.
There were no water stains outside Li Xu's house, and it looked no different from the houses outside. Everything was normal.
Soon someone came to open the door. Li Xu in the room looked at Chi Shen, obviously a little shocked. He murmured, "Chi Shen? Why are you here?"
"I'm passing by. Can I use your toilet?" Chi Shen showed an impeccable smile.
Li Xu still looked a little confused, as if he didn't know how Chi Shen knew where his house was, but he still made way for Chi Shen to come in, and turned around to show Chi Shen where the toilet was.
Chi Shen turned his head slightly and looked at the ghost face on his shoulder.
The ghost face immediately slapped the red-clothed ghost with his own face skin, and said quickly and quietly: "According to the plan!"
Chi Shen followed Li Xu into the house and closed the door behind him.
"You are the first colleague to come to my house," Li Xu showed a fleeting smile on his pale and haggard face, "No one has been here for a long time, do you want to--"
His voice suddenly stopped, and he felt something grabbing his body and dragging him directly into the bathroom.
In this horrifying and bizarre situation, there was no panic on his face, and he even showed a relieved smile.
"You're finally back."
