"I'll give this to you first." Gao Ling said before leaving.

She took out the talisman from her chest and put it into the hand of a boy behind her.

"this……"

"I'm going home and I won't be leaving the house for a few days." Gao Ling said, "Go to the group leader and ask for a new one, and then return this one to me."

"Oh..." The boy nodded. Gao Ling turned around and wanted to go upstairs, but then he looked at the girl who was stiff all over. He walked back and patted her, "Hey, relax, everything is over, it's okay."

"Boss..." the girl finally spoke, her voice a little hoarse.

"Alright, alright." Gao Ling interrupted them. "Everyone is too tired today. Let's go back and rest. When we have recovered, we can sit down and have a good chat."

Those people finally went up to the hotel one after another. Gao Ling looked around, wrapped her clothes tightly, and ran towards her home. Her home was not far from here, because she found the hotel, which was only across the street.

This time she repeatedly reminded everyone to wear the talisman, and one of them immediately said that he would definitely wear it and would not take it off even when sleeping.

Gao Ling ran back home, keeping her head down and hiding it in her windbreaker. When she opened the door, her mother was sitting on the sofa, knitting a sweater while watching TV. She looked at her and asked in surprise, "Didn't you bring your friends back with you?"

"No, Mom, I..." Gao Ling wanted to say something, but quickly changed her tone, "I'm too tired from playing today... I want to sleep."

"Sleep...then go to sleep. Isn't it too early?" Her mother glanced at the clock. "Go eat before you go to sleep. I stewed some bones for you. They're in the pot. You can heat them up yourself. There's also rice."

Gao Ling covered his face, hurried into the kitchen, turned on the induction cooker, and heated up the rice while panting.

After five minutes, she took out her mobile phone and looked at the messages in the group, which was already in an uproar.

It all started with a message posted in the group about half an hour ago: [We met Yuan at the comic convention.]

This message was sent anonymously, and it should be one of the six people.

Gao Ling didn't post anything herself. She checked the group chat and almost everyone in the group was shocked. They were asking frantically what had happened and how they were doing.

[Yuan? !!! Comic convention? ! Have you seen him in person? What does he look like in person? ]

[Oh my god...how are you guys doing now? Did you get back to the hotel safely? Did you really see Yuan or were you just pretending to be there? How did you recognize that it was Yuan?]

[Don't go up to him foolishly! He's a real person. Don't be fooled by some random fan fiction.]

[Yes, is the boss here with you? What did the boss say? How is she?]

Gao Ling wiped his face again when he saw the news.

This message was sent while they were still in the toilet.

That is to say, while they were chatting in the toilet, someone secretly took out his mobile phone and anonymously sent such a message in the group.

I don’t know what was going on in my mind...when I was escaping death, I actually remembered to take out my cell phone and send a message...but I guess at that time, no one had come out of the toilet yet.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be just this one message in the group. It was as if it was strangled afterwards. Until now, only the other people in the group are talking to each other. None of the six people have appeared again.

Afterwards, everyone came out of the restroom one after another and knew a little bit about the situation. They all stood there in shock, and for some people, the degree of shock was probably even greater than before.

Later, one of the boys said, "Since they didn't pursue the matter... that means they didn't intend to do anything to us... right?"

The few people standing in the middle of the toilet suddenly woke up as if from a dream, looked at each other, then rushed out of the toilet like crazy, hailed two taxis, and quickly returned.

Maybe it was because of this that the conversation in the group was suddenly interrupted. No one was willing to continue talking about this topic, even the person who was interested in talking to the group before was suddenly poured with a bucket of cold water.

Gao Ling returned to his bedroom. The people who returned to the hotel also saw the news in the group. Someone started asking in the group, "Who said this among us?"

【have no idea……】

[No, we...we were in that state at that time, and there were still people who wanted to chat with us? ! ! ]

[Who posted this? Come out, how dare you post this but not show your face? Who is this person... and posted this anonymously?]

Gao Ling scratched her head. It was about to start a big fight, and she was too lazy to care about the fights in the group.

Anyway, this was the last time she would go out with those people, and she would never go with them again.

This... is indeed very infuriating, but now that we are back in the hotel, we are almost safe, as long as Yuan doesn't come back to cause trouble for them.

...So let them fight if they want.

Gao Ling turned around, took out his notebook, and began to write and draw on it.

She kept moving her pen intermittently, and in the end, she only drew a few lines.

Gao Ling stopped drawing for a while and then opened the comic she had updated. The comments below were basically, [Boss! Keep drawing! Draw faster, this is so cool! ]

[Hurry up, I want to see Yuan Kuang punch them in the face and beat them all to death! ]

[The boss is still more straightforward... But did Ji Qiu really arrange it like this? The more I watch, the more I feel that Yuan does seem to be a tragic figure...]

[I don't know... But the end of the film hasn't been drawn yet. Although the boss's guess seems more reliable, I'm still afraid that you'll be slapped in the face.]

Gao Ling read the comments one by one, from beginning to end. It was an hour later when he read the last one.

She adjusted the light above her head to make it brighter, then took out a notebook next to her and added a few more notes.

There are several other sentences on the notebook, all arranged in order, like an outline, written down slowly.

The first entry was written by Gao Ling when he first learned the inside story of this comic book. It only had one sentence.

【There may have been some hidden reasons behind the killing of humans.】

The signature below is 8.13.

There are many different signatures listed below.

[There may be a big move after Yuan... I don't know what the specific move is, but it is very likely related to the upper echelons. ]

【10.25】

…

[The chaos among the monsters is most likely due to class conflicts, as well as some other currently unknown factors. ]

【2.13】

…

[The guy in white will have a lot of roles in the later part. It seems that he was Yiqi's gay friend.]

【3.1】

…

Gao Ling took out a pen and wrote down a few words from today in the notebook.

[Yuan may be injured, and the injury is very serious. It is very likely that he has been injured before and has not healed. ]

【3.27】

…

There was a big fight in the group... It lasted from 10 pm to 2 am. Anyway, when Gao Ling woke up the next day and looked through the historical records, she was amazed. She wondered why you guys were so energetic after being tied together and kneeling for half an hour.

But then she thought about it and wondered if this was also a way of releasing her emotions... um... how should I put it? A stress response after the trauma?

However, later on, except for the other five people, no one else cared about the content of their quarrel. They only cared about what happened to them tonight.

[So you really saw Yuan injured? And seriously injured?]

[Uh... I didn't see it, it was Big Boss and Yan Ming who saw it... When we went out, we saw them standing there stupidly. They told us this later.]

[But we saw the paper balls in the trash can... there was indeed a huge pile of them, all covered in blood, and it looked quite scary.]

[…I actually took a bunch back for collection.]

【……】

[…Fuck, are you trying to kill yourself? That’s the blood of a big monster. Monsters have a very keen sense of smell. What if they follow the smell and find you?]

[It’s okay.] The man said confidently, [I’ve been using mosquito coils to fumigate the place all night… I guess the smell is gone.]

[…Damn, it turns out that you were the one who lit the mosquito coils in the middle of winter! ]

[I was wondering who the idiot was, lighting mosquito coils in the middle of winter, and I almost wanted to pick up a knife. Turns out it was you! ]

The topic in the group went off topic again, and it took a long time for someone to get back to the point. [So the boss saw it the longest? The boss is worthy of being the boss... Where is she? ]

[I don’t know. I didn’t see her all night…]

[I guess I don't want to get involved in the fight between you guys... Look how calm the boss is. 】

[At that time, the boss was washing her face in the pool, and Yuan was washing in the pool next to her. The two of them washed side by side...]

[…Wow, big boss.]

[…Thank God you’re a big shot, otherwise I’d be scared to death. ]

As they were talking, someone suddenly raised a question.

[Yuan...how could I be seriously injured after saving you guys? 】

Some people in the group also started to discuss, "Yeah, this doesn't make sense... Besides, he didn't show up from the beginning to the end, right? How can he be injured? Did you see it wrong?"

[How could I be wrong! I saw the bloody paper ball in the trash can with my own eyes, there is no mistake about it! ]

[That’s strange.] Someone in the group said.

【unless……】

[Unless... he was injured before? ]

[It’s very possible… When was he injured before? Was he injured by a senior executive?]

[Actually... not really.] The girl in the group who saw Yuan with Gao Ling suddenly spoke up. Her nickname was [Yan Ming].

[I have an idea... but I don't dare to talk nonsense now (looking up at the sky). I was hit in the face yesterday and it hurt too much. I decided to play dead.]

After she finished speaking, she sent an emoticon pretending to be dead.

[Come on, just say what you think, don’t be so hesitant.] People in the group shouted.

[Yes, just say whatever you want to say, and we will analyze it for you.]

…

Yuan Yuanyuan opened the door, threw the key on the table, then went into the bathroom and took a shower.

The water hit my body and turned red. It slowly flowed down for a very long time before turning transparent again.

As she rushed, Yuan Yuanyuan suddenly stopped.

She looked at the patch of skin on her chest.

Yuan Yuanyuan slowly walked to the mirror and looked at it for a long time.

There was a clear bruise on the skin exposed in the mirror, and the skin had been broken, but under the exposed skin, there was a small white area.

What is this thing... Yuan Yuanyuan frowned and gently tore it off, taking off a large piece of skin.

"hiss."

She looked at the extra half of a palm-sized piece of...human skin in her hand.

ah……

Then Yuan Yuanyuan stood half-naked in front of the mirror alone...

Silently weathered away.

The author has something to say: There are no overly melodramatic plots.

I saw some comments about fabricating an identity and finding out that I am a fake person...

There shouldn't be such a thing as [Looking up at the sky]. I'm a novice writer...writing that kind of stuff gives me goosebumps all over my body, it's uncomfortable.

But then I thought about it again... It's not quite right to say that. I can only say that I don't write about this aspect. This aspect is not important to Yuan Yuanyuan... She is too lazy to explore it...

Pat on the head, love you =￣ω￣=
