Chapter 1136 Tragic Fate
Things seem to be finally back on track——
Tommy. Keller. Lanny. Next door neighbor lady and baby. Crockett.
Everything, everyone is happy, everyone has found the direction and focus of life, and the world seems to have finally returned to normal.
Except him.
So, as long as he disappears, things will be perfect, right?
Perhaps, this is the simplest thing.
Evan lay in the bathtub, turned on the faucet, and watched quietly as the water flowed, and the biting cold water submerged him bit by bit.
Taking a deep breath, Evan closed his eyes and allowed the water to wrap around him, drown him and devour him, and the world escaped into endless darkness.
However, things are not that simple.
The buoyancy force pushed him up and down on the water. His body was never able to sink completely. Instead, he resurfaced when the bathtub began to overflow.
He tried to hold his breath and let himself sink again; but he still struggled.
At this moment, Tommy came in and saw Evan struggling in the bathtub. He quickly stepped forward and fished Evan out of the bathtub.
Tommy didn't think much of it, thinking it was an accident.
Evan dejectedly admitted that he was trying to take his own life.
Unexpectedly, Tommy began to comfort Evan. The whole weird situation caused Evan to collapse, "I damn can't even kill myself."
Tommy hugged Evan tightly and stayed with Evan with practical actions. Despite the bitterness and struggle, Tommy forced himself to cheer up.
"I have to get you out of here or visiting hours will be over."
Visitation?
What visitation?
Before the audience in the screening room had time to let doubts spread in their minds, the movie had already given the answer——
Andrea. Lung cancer.
The once vivid Andrea was now lying on the hospital bed as haggard as a zombie, dying.
Evan was stunned.
Nicholas was also stunned.
The face on the big screen was haggard, decadent, and depressed, with unshaven beard and messy hair. The bad dark circles under the eyes and cracked lips highlighted the dullness of the face. The worst thing was that those blue eyes There was no light in his eyes, only deep tiredness and distress.
At this time, those eyes were staring straight ahead, flickering slightly. Panic and fear, timidity and anger were intertwined together. They tried to struggle and explode, but were caught by a deep weakness at the ankle. , continuing to fall in the endless darkness, being swallowed bit by bit.
I can't shout or cry.
The helplessness and confusion instantly defeated him.
At the same time, Nicholas was defeated in front of the big screen.
Nicholas opened his mouth slightly and tried to make some sounds, but found that there were no thoughts in his mind. He was just falling together under the gaze of that blue eye, like a free fall, and continued to fall endlessly.
"Ever since I blew myself up, you've become a smoker?" Evan murmured under his breath.
Andrea was stunned.
It was Tommy who comforted Andrea, "Sorry, he's been a little weird lately."
Evan had no time to pay attention to this. He was just immersed in his own thoughts, "I can fix all this." Andrea, "Repair?"
Evan said to himself that he needed a diary, but then he realized that he had no hands, so in this time and space, he might not be able to find his diary. What should he do? How else could he go back?
Evan's panicked look alerted Andrea, and she realized that Jason went crazy at Evan's current age.
However, before Andrea could say anything, Evan already knew what Andrea was going to say; the problem was that in this time and space, Andrea had never told Evan about Jason, and Evan also never visited Jason.
Evan's thoughts became a mess, his memories were all disrupted in different time and space, the timelines were intertwined, and the sequence of events began to become confusing.
Andrea looked at Evan who was gradually falling into trouble, tears slowly falling from his eyes, "You... just... are becoming more and more like Jason..."
Andrea was choked by despair and fear, but Evan didn't pay attention. He didn't have the heart to care about these. There was only one thought in his mind:
Save mother.
With Lanny's help, Evan found the only diary in this time and space. Before the mailbox explosion and before Crockett's death, Evan had no choice. He could only go back to the time when he first started recording the diary. line, but he still found a solution:
As long as he destroyed the detonator in advance, nothing would happen next.
So, Evan rummaged around in the kitchen and found a kitchen knife. When he was about to leave, Andrea saw this scene.
Before Evan could take the next step, Andrea stopped him.
Then, Evan returned to reality, and nothing happened.
Then, Evan returned to the afternoon of filming the movie in the basement. He didn't even have time to stop George. He turned around and found the detonator according to the memory picture, dug it out, and prepared to destroy the detonator once and for all.
But he never expected that when George was preventing Evan from destroying the entire basement, the lit detonator was thrown out, and Keller picked it up.
When he woke up again, Evan realized that he had entered a juvenile detention center, began a wandering and decadent life, and finally entered a mental hospital.
Evan woke up and tried to find his diary; but the doctor told him that there was no diary at all, and there had never been those diaries.
"...This is just part of the fantasy world your brain created to overcome your inner guilt for the manslaughter of Keller Miller."
said the doctor.
"Think about it, Evan, think about it. You invented a disease that doesn't exist, and you're living in a world of college, prison, and paraplegia."
The doctor said he was crazy.
However, Evan didn't believe it, "I want my diary, I want it now, I know they are in your hands, you must return them to me. Don't lie to me anymore, I need them."
< br>
Evan went crazy, with red eyes, roaring at the doctor, roaring, shouting and shouting turned into pleading, the sadness in his eyes could no longer be controlled.
Nicholas was completely stunned.
At a certain moment, he actually began to believe the doctor. Maybe everything before was just Evan's fantasy, a story played out in a schizophrenic mind. Maybe.
However, there is a voice deep inside that firmly grasps the reins of reason. Everything that happens in the entire movie is real, but ordinary people like them cannot understand it.
So, what is reality and what is illusion?
Also, what is normal and what is madness?
When they look at the lunatics in the mental hospital, they take it for granted that they are abnormal, and that all the cognitions they say that are beyond common sense are all crazy words. They fear, reject, and avoid them, and then lock them up. Behind bars and bars, order is maintained in the world.
So, who is crazy? And who holds the truth?
