Chapter 27 The truth gradually emerged
“I didn’t tell anyone this secret. This may be the most wrong thing I have ever done in my life.”
Meng Shi closed the bedroom door Opened the lock and led Han Fei inside.
The bedroom is not large in size. There is a single bed. On the other side of the bed is a huge freezer, which is covered with a thick black cloth.
The lighting was very dim, and the curtains in the bedroom were nailed to the wall, making it impossible to see what was in the room from the outside.
"I told you a story before. There was a woman who adopted three children. In fact, that woman was me." Guilt and uneasy conscience had been tormenting the old man. It was not until she experienced a life-and-death crisis that she decided to tell the truth. : "That day I secretly followed them to the suburbs and watched the three brothers twisting around the corpse. Beating, listening to them insulting each other, I realized at this time that the harmony between them was just for me to see.”
The old man’s skinny hands grabbed the black cloth on the freezer: "The third child became abnormal very early. He started burning ants and catching earthworms, and gradually developed into a torturer. Stray cats and stray dogs. He seems to be unable to vent his emotions like normal people, and can only rely on certain behaviors to stimulate himself. "
"Both the boss and the second child know about the abnormality of the third child. Don’t let me worry, I have contacted Lao San many times in private.”
“The boss is still here. The third child looked for a psychiatrist, and the second child helped the third child deal with the aftermath. The two brothers kept giving the third child a chance, but blindly preaching could not change the third child. "
"Until that day, the tragedy happened. Well, the third child killed a homeless man living in an abandoned villa.”
"The first one to notice something was wrong was the second child. He was used to taking care of his brother's aftermath, but when he found out that it was a human body, he was completely stunned."
"The second child cursed angrily. My brother is a devil, saying that people like my brother should not live in the world."
"Kneeling in front of the corpse, my brother didn't show it. He was so repentant that he even told his second son excitedly that he would soon be able to prove that he was not sick and that he had found the butterfly that had fallen deep in his mind. As long as he could find that butterfly, he felt that death would be worth it. "
The old man's voice began to tremble when she talked about what happened in the past, and she silently opened the black cloth on the freezer.
"The butterfly landed in the back of my mind? Does the third child have a mental illness? Does he have hallucinations?" Han Fei vaguely felt that things were not that simple.
"Lao San always said that there was a butterfly in his head, which he could feel but couldn't find. The butterfly led him forward, and every time the butterfly's wings flapped, he would have uncontrollable killing intent. Every now and then, he would have uncontrollable killing intent. As his murderous intention continued to grow, he got closer and closer to the butterfly. He said that the butterfly had the most beautiful color in the world. "The old man opened the freezer with difficulty, and the air-conditioning came out.
Han Fei looked into the freezer, which contained rotten books.
"Grandma, why did you put the book in the refrigerator?"
The old man did not answer. She reached out and took out a book from the refrigerator, revealing the frozen person under the book. Face: "These books belong to Lao San. The ones under the books are People are also killed by him."
Putting the book in his hand next to him, the old man knelt down on the side of the freezer: "I watched the three brothers fighting and hurting each other that day. My heart ached very much. I feel like everything is my fault.”
Guilt, self-blame, and pain, the old man's voice gradually weakened: "I rushed up to stop them. When they saw me, the three children were surprised. The third child, who had been talking back to his brother, also lowered his head."
< br>"I persuaded the third child to surrender, and the eldest brother and the second child also decided to call the police. The third child didn't say a word during the whole process, and it wasn't until the end that he told us one thing. There was another person who induced him to commit the crime. "
"He couldn't tell us who that person was, he said. After knowing that name, everyone's life will be in danger. He also said that the old town will soon be in danger. A serial murder case will occur, all in order to find the butterfly in the mind."
"As a family, we want to believe the third child, but the murder cannot be forgiven in any case. In the end, the boss. The second child and the second child decided to give the third child a week to let the third child work on this. The existence of that person was proved within a week.”
“The abandoned villa in the suburbs is home to many homeless people and scavengers, as well as many fugitives and gangsters. The bodies are easily found hidden here, so we used the refrigerated truck. , transported it to the freezer ”
"I can't remember much of what happened after that, and my memory seems to be missing a section. I only remember that all three children left me, and I guarded this body, waiting for the third child to turn himself in."< br>
The old man still doesn’t remember her death. This situation may happen to her because of the game.
"The third brother said that someone induced him to kill someone, and that there would be serial murders in the old city soon. He seemed to predict the human body puzzle pattern!" Han Fei knew that the three brothers were still alive, and there must be something wrong with them. Something happened.
"I feel that the three brothers are all in danger now." Han Fei moved his eyes and inadvertently saw the book that had been covered on the face of the deceased. The book was called "Butterflies of the Soul", and the author was One of the founders of neurological research in the century, there is such a sentence written on the cover of the book.
“Like an entomologist who is constantly chasing colorful and beautiful butterflies, I am deeply attracted by the back garden of neural gray matter. There are cells with exquisite and elegant shapes, and butterflies with mysterious souls. Who knows What? Maybe one day when it flaps its wings, it will reveal the mystery of the spiritual world - Ramon Cajal"
"The butterfly of the soul? After I log in to the game, will my mind and soul step on that butterfly? And then fly in the world of the underworld?"
Han Fei knows nothing about the game, He only exists in the most basic stage of survival. It is useless to think so much now. The top priority is to continuously upgrade.
“Grandma, if the third child kills someone, he will be punished. If you protect him, you will only turn him into a monster that is neither human nor ghost. More people will suffer from his poisonous hands in the future. ." Han Fei closed the freezer. He had decided to bring the third child to justice in reality. Perhaps this would also be a relief for the old man.
"The deceased lost his life, but the murderer escaped punishment. No matter what the reason is, this seems unfair to me." The friendship between Han Fei and Meng Shi has reached a very high value, so Han Fei Fei is also worried that Meng Shi’s friendliness will be lowered because of his words: "This freezer looks like it's hiding a corpse, but in fact it's hiding all the happiness and beauty of your generations. I think you should let it go."
Looking at the person kneeling on the side of the freezer The old man, Han Fei thought of the tenants in the haunted house again, and his eyes gradually drifted away.
"In this game called Perfect Life, it seems that no life is perfect." (End of Chapter)
