The badly-reformed stand-in novel (Twenty)
Gu Zhi no longer remembered which world it was.
However, Gu Zhi could only repeat the strange plot like a puppet, imprisoning the person he liked, threatening the other person with his family, watching the other person become thinner and thinner, while he turned to find someone else.
Every time Gu Zhi saw Shen Shi, his whole soul seemed to be pulled. He clearly didn't like the other person, but as if he had been ordered, he couldn't help expressing his love to Bai Yueguang. Jiang Yuan's appearance was erased, and when he reacted, Jiang Yuan was already dead. He began to regret and cry, leaning in Bai Yueguang's arms.
It shouldn't be like this, but it should be like this.
Gu Zhi stood in front of Jiang Yuan's grave, holding a large bunch of baby's breath.
White baby's breath leaned against Jiang Yuan's tombstone, and then red raindrops splashed on the white flowers.
Before Gu Zhi closed his eyes, he heard a voice in his mind: [The protagonist has died, the mission has failed, and the world is about to rewind]
From then on, he clearly realized that all this was just a novel, and he was the protagonist of the novel, while Jiang Yuan was another protagonist, but he was killed halfway through.
Gu Zhi tried to save her, but he found that his Jiang Yuan was no longer Jiang Yuan. He acted strangely in front of Jiang Yuan's face. Gu Zhi tried to communicate and join forces at the beginning, but collapsed after being rejected.
Outsiders, lots of outsiders.
They occupied Jiang Yuan's body and made him die on his own initiative.
They didn't treat them as human beings.
Gu Zhi killed the other party in despair, hoping that the world would go back and find life again.
He had made a promise to the awakened Jiang Yuan, and he swore on the stars in the sky.
"I am willing to be a supporting role and love you without telling anyone."
This is the words of the starry sky.
Jiang Yuan didn't say anything at that time, but just gently stroked his eyebrows, his eyes revealing tenderness and indescribable sadness.
Is that the sadness of being unable to fight the war?
Gu Zhi killed one outsider after another, almost becoming addicted. He found that Jiang Yuan's death was very beautiful, a look that belonged only to him and had never been seen before, just like the kitten he strangled to death as a child.
Gu Zhi felt the other person's pulse beating in his palm, and a voice in his head said: "The world was born because of you."
Gu Zhi can do anything.
By eliminating those who had insulted him, he easily occupied the positions that those people were most proud of and coveted. Under the influence of money and power, he was surprised to find that he could have countless Jiang Yuans, but each one was not exactly like Jiang Yuan.
At this time, Gu Zhi remembered that he came to save Jiang Yuan, so he had to drive away all those who occupied Jiang Yuan's body.
Remove all obstacles.
But...what if he never killed outsiders?
Bang----
Jiang Yuanshi fell down.
He was still saying something, but Gu Zhi could no longer hear anything.
"Oh no, Mr. Gu! There are sirens, it seems the police are coming!"
When the subordinates opened the door, they saw white smoke coming out of the gun that Gu Zhi was holding, and blood splattered on Gu Zhi's face. When they turned their sight, they saw the person on the ground lying in a pool of blood.
The subordinate rushed over to pull Gu Zhi, but the red blood in Gu Zhi's eyes was crushed by the subordinate's kick. He pushed the subordinate away like a madman, grabbed the subordinate's shoulders and asked anxiously: "Tell me, tell me, what is schizophrenia - what is..."
The subordinate hadn't expected Gu Zhi to ask such an abstract question in such an emergency, so he could only drag Gu Zhi out while answering, "It's just that the person is stimulated and split, or has multiple personalities or something, with several personalities in one person, and they don't even recognize each other. It's very common in novels, isn't it? Let's go, Gu Zhi, the police are really coming!"
novel……
The subordinate didn't know that the words touched Gu Zhi. Gu Zhi suddenly laughed and cried at the same time, and seemed to have schizophrenia, muttering "impossible" madly.
"Impossible, what's that? Mr. Gu, give me a hand!" The subordinates worked together to take Gu Zhi out of the warehouse. After a moment of silence, Gu Zhi struggled vigorously, fired a gun and shouted at the sky: "World Consciousness, answer me! Tell me this is impossible! World Consciousness!"
"Oh my god, is he really crazy?" The subordinates were shocked and didn't know whether to take action, for fear that the other party would shoot them. Suddenly, Secretary Zhou stepped forward and knocked Gu Zhi unconscious with a powerful knife. Then they left with the crazy president.
One of them asked: "What about the hackers in the warehouse?"
Secretary Zhou pushed his glasses and said calmly, "Just die, don't worry about anything else."
The vehicle drove away and disappeared from sight.
Jiang Yuanshi stood outside the warehouse with his hand covering his shoulder, half of his sleeve soaked with blood.
He turned and walked up the hill.
Gu Zhi is so crazy that he doesn't even kill people thoroughly.
He has to do it himself.
The warehouse was still some distance from the top of the mountain. Jiang Yuanshi hurried up the mountain. Suddenly, the system voice in his mind rang out:
"Is this the method you mentioned?"
Jiang Yuanshi just said "hmm" and nothing else.
System: "You need to explain to me, otherwise I can't continue to cooperate with you."
Jiang Yuanshi chuckled, and he finally stood at the edge of the cliff. Raindrops fell, hitting the ground, hitting his hair, and sliding down his cheeks, washing away the crimson. A misty fog rose from the bottom of the cliff, and he could not see the scenery below. The rain fell into the fog and no trace remained.
"No need to cooperate, it's over." Jiang Yuanshi closed his eyes, his body flashed, and he jumped down with the rain, jumping into the endless fog.
That was his destiny.
He felt the clothes fluttering against his body, then clinging to his cold body.
He fell into the icy lake.
This time the death was even more ugly.
Jiang Yuanshi was frozen unconscious. There was no more system sound in his ears, only the sound of water echoed. He opened his eyes and saw a flash of white.
Unlike when he died in the hospital bed, he felt an unprecedented warmth in the lake water, which gently wrapped around his whole body. The feeling of suffocation made him open his mouth in an attempt to absorb oxygen, but what he poured in was ice-cold water. The extremely contradictory feeling made his consciousness even more blurred. Before he fainted, he felt a warm touch on his lips, and his lips and tongue were pried open gently but forcefully, and the oxygen that came in brought him back to life.
Jiang Yuanshi opened his eyes, but he couldn't see the face clearly because they were too close. There was only a pair of extremely dark eyes staring at him deeply with an inexplicable sense of familiarity. Jiang Yuanshi pushed and resisted frantically in the other's arms but couldn't separate.
The lake was stirred up by huge waves, and Jiang Yuanshi was thrown onto the shore. Suddenly, he breathed in a lot of air and spit out the lake water frantically.
“Cough cough cough cough cough!!”
He coughed until his heart ached and tears welled up in his eyes. "You—"
"I cannot agree with your actions until you give an explanation." The system interrupted abruptly in my ear.
“It really is—ahem!”
"It is recommended that you recover before continuing to speak. Based on the host's overall physical condition, it is estimated to take 5 minutes to recover."
Jiang Yuanshi had no time to complain about the other party for interrupting his plan. His throat was extremely painful from coughing, and breathing felt like the pain after running a thousand meters. Jiang Yuanshi pressed his shoulders for a long time, wiped his eyes, and looked at the other party.
The system knelt in front of Jiang Yuanshi, wearing the same white shirt and black pants, but one could tell that the system was tall. The system lifted up the wet bangs on its forehead, revealing a face that was inhumanly handsome, with a 3D modeling feel.
Jiang Yuanshi gasped, "Excuse me, what exactly do you want to do?"
The system's eyes, as dark as the abyss, blinked and said, "I have your explanation."
Jiang Yuanshi covered his shoulder and found a tree to lean against. "What if Jiang Yuanshi's death was part of the plan?"
System: "You didn't tell me your plan, so I don't know."
"..." That made sense. Jiang Yuanshi had no choice. He didn't have the energy to die again, so he resigned himself to his fate and said, "What do you want to know?"
System: "Start with why you created a new NPC and led Gu Zhi to kill you. You've already co-opted Secretary Zhou to help livestream Gu Zhi's actions in the warehouse. Based on the surveillance footage provided by Secretary Zhou and previously recorded footage of Gu Zhi exploiting and beating employees, exhibiting mood swings and suspected personality disorder, you've posted it online. Given Gu Zhi's current vulnerability, it's inevitable that he'll be apprehended by the police and lose his family's support. Why did you want this NPC to die?"
Jiang Yuanshi laughed, perhaps out of anger. "Don't you already know everything so clearly? Why do you need me to explain anything?"
System: "You didn't answer my question. My question is: why do you want to die? It's not necessary."
Jiang Yuanshi looked at the lake. "The police will come to search. The live broadcast has been released. If they can't find Jiang Yuanshi's body, then there will always be doubts in the case. Where did Jiang Yuanshi come from? What is the grudge between Jiang Yuanshi and Gu Zhi? What does Jiang Yuanshi know? By then, the police will ask Jiang Yuanshi questions every day. The power of the rich can cover up many things. There are too many things to weave for an NPC. Only the dead can't speak. Only the dead can put an end to this matter once and for all."
The system was not impressed by this answer: "You can escape and wait until this character disappears naturally."
Jiang Yuanshi shook his head and slowly stood up. "We need them to find the body. The body is the best proof of death."
How else could he die?
The rain was getting heavier. Jiang Yuanshi walked on the muddy ground towards the surging water. He turned his back to the system and said, "Please don't stop me. After I die, I have to return to Jiang Yuan's body."
Jiang Yuanshi had just stepped one foot into the water when he was picked up by the waist. The exhausted Jiang Yuanshi was finally tired. He shouted and pushed, trying to jump out of the system's arms, "Let go! I've explained everything, what else do you want!"
Jiang Yuanshi's words received no response. "System? System! ...Z01!"
Z01 brought the person back to the place, and just as he let go, he felt dizzy and felt his data become a mess. After sorting it out, he found that he had been pressed to the ground by the host.
Jiang Yuanshi sat astride Z01, his whole body soaked by the rain and lake water. His clothes clung to his body, revealing his figure. Red blood kept flowing out and then washed away to a light color. His bangs were wet on his forehead, and his eyes were fixed on Z01. His eye sockets were very red, and his mouth was also very red.
The cut on Jiang Yuanshi's mouth was particularly red when he spoke, and the color of his lips, which had been crushed so hard, made his skin look particularly pale.
"What on earth are you going to do?" Jiang Yuanshi's eyes grew redder. He grabbed Z01's collar and said, "Why are you stopping me? I've already explained everything, why are you still stopping me? I just want to die meaningfully. Why won't you listen to my explanation?"
He was more excited than ever before, and his words were filled with a hint of grievance.
He should have been showing anger, but now his expression was filled with sadness.
Z01 didn't understand. He really couldn't understand humans. Humans were complex, strange, and yet fragile.
After Jiang Yuanshi's outburst, he lost all his strength, his shoulders slumped, and he begged, "I'm sorry, please, don't stop me."
Z01 stood up and asked, "This is my final question. Are you sure you want to do this?"
Jiang Yuanshi nodded.
"OK."
After Z01 finished answering, Jiang Yuanshi was just about to gather some strength to stand up when a pair of hands grabbed his waist. Jiang Yuanshi leaned back alertly, "What are you going to do next—"
Jiang Yuanshi rested his chin on the strong shoulders and fell into an embrace.
Z01: "I have another way to kill you. It's painless and will have minimal impact on the host's soul, allowing you to quickly adapt to Jiang Yuan's body."
Jiang Yuanshi was a little confused. He couldn't understand why the person who had just lost his temper with him would help him. Isn't the system a human?
This time it was Jiang Yuanshi's turn to ask, "Why are you helping me?"
Z01: "Because after listening to your explanation, I will cooperate with you and provide the best option based on the system's own capabilities."
Jiang Yuanshi's shoulders and eyes hurt, and his nose was sore. He buried his head in the other person's arms and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."
Z01 put one hand on Jiang Yuanshi's head, which was quite round. "You don't need to apologize. Please close your eyes."
He obediently closed his eyes. The host, who had given up resistance, felt soft, cold yet warm, and was still trembling slightly.
The human body is really fragile, Z01 thought.
Jiang Yuanshi felt his consciousness being pulled away, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw himself lying on the ground. Jiang Yuanshi stretched out his hands to look at himself. The hands with ten fingertips missing were indeed his soul, but the perspective was much higher.
Jiang Yuanshi lowered his head:!
It turned out that I was floating in the air, with one of my feet held in Z01's hand.
Jiang Yuanshi said silently: "I feel like a kite."
Z01 did not answer, but simply asked: "Is your body placed here?"
Jiang Yuanshi looked at the peaceful corpse and said, "Push it into the water."
Z01: "Then it's more likely to be washed away, and it will become a giant, which is not very beautiful."
Jiang Yuanshi felt that the latter part was not the main point. He asked the system: "Then do you know what the body washed ashore looked like?"
After searching the data, Z01 used one hand to arrange Jiang Yuanshi's body into the appearance of someone just washed ashore according to the picture.
"Okay, we can go back now."
Jiang Yuanshi asked, "How do we get back?"
Z01 replied: "Walk back."
?
Jiang Yuanshi: "Can't you just flash back into your body in a flash?"
Z01 dragged Jiang Yuan along with the kite while searching for navigation as he walked back. "The system follows the host's soul. You are here now. My human form is an emergency entity and cannot be undone for now. I can only walk back, or I can sprint through the air in human form, but at this altitude, I'm very likely to encounter an airplane."
Jiang Yuanshi imagined that when the passengers on the plane were looking at the scenery outside the window, an expressionless human suddenly appeared and flew with them. They would probably be scared to death and at the same time become a hot topic on the human wonder search.
“But this place is far from the hospital.”
Z01 checked the route and finally decided to go back the way he came, circling the mountains and forests and attempting a low-altitude flight. To prevent Jiang Yuanshi from becoming a kite with a broken string, he was pulled back into his arms. Before leaving, Z01 asked one last time, "Is it okay for you to leave your body here like this?"
"This is just an NPC who looks just like me." Jiang Yuanshi took one last look, turned his head and looked forward, and said lightly, "Death is his only value."
