Weird collapse, chasing husband crematorium

You personally held your funeral and wrote your suicide note.

"But why did you write a suicide note? For whom? What was the reason? I won't die, no... it's you who won't die, so why did I die? Why did you die?"

Who am I, a bloody newspaper? Or Him? You are me, and I am…

【I am a ghost that peeks into the past and the future.】

[I tried to kill all users and use their souls as paint to complete my own painting...]

I have met many people, and when they pick me up and continue to use me, I can cut off their future and they will be killed by me.

But I met a very special person, and I couldn't kill him.

【He is dead.】

Too many memories made the answers of the blood newspaper very strange, as if it had glimpsed a taboo. The unspeakable rules instantly distorted the original rules of the blood newspaper.

Let its narrative style undergo some unknown transformation.

Obviously, the bloody newspaper had lost its mind and started talking nonsense.

Giving nonsensical answers that have nothing to do with the question is irrelevant and goes beyond the rules.

According to the current frequent occurrence of strange things, it won’t be long before he dies in a supernatural incident.

Maybe next time, or maybe this time.

Li Mo glanced at the words on the back of the bloody newspaper. The shape was no longer recognizable and it was crooked. It was even weirder than the words on the first page of the notebook.

It's like several tentacles awkwardly spliced together to form a string of twisted hieroglyphs.

"Self-destruction?"

Li Mo didn't expect the blood newspaper to be so straightforward and directly admit his true nature.

But the following statement made Li Mo's eyes a little cold.

The bloody newspaper said it couldn't kill itself because it was already dead.

Although Li Mo knew very well that blood newspaper was different from notebook and that he could lie within the scope permitted by the rules, he still felt strangely uncomfortable when he said this.

This is intuition, and the intuition of ghosts has always been more sensitive than that of humans.

"Glimpsing into the past and the future, your level is much higher than I thought."

"If you weren't a liar, your ability to see into the future five hundred years would have far exceeded my expectations."

"But even if you can't lie, I won't keep you around."

"As you said yourself, you will cut off the user's future, so I am naturally no exception. I don't believe in the concept of being special, because I will trigger the law and die just the same, even if the method of death is different."

Li Mo and the bloody newspaper looked at each other, and their statements were surprisingly similar.

The Blood Newspaper's speaking style is gradually approaching Li Mo's, but it can never think like Li Mo.

Too much memory has long buried the few remaining wisdoms of the blood newspaper. The remaining rules seem like a last glimmer of light, just like the spasms of some living people after death, a conditioned reflex response.

Li Mo stared at the bloody newspaper and asked one last question.

"What should I do to survive on the fourth day?"

The reason for asking this question was very simple, because the notebook predicted that he would die on the fourth day. Combined with the clues from Kanagawa Qimeng's nightmare, Li Mo roughly guessed how to survive on the third day.

The fourth day was an unavoidable test. Li Mo wanted to see if the blood-stained newspaper could decipher the predictions in the notebook.

As for whether the blood newspaper would lie and set a trap, based on the blood newspaper's speaking ability, Li Mo could tell at a glance whether it was a trap and how feasible it was.

If you think it's totally unfeasible, don't even consider it.

If it is feasible, then you just need to make preparations before the fourth night. When the moment of death comes, it is not a bad idea to do what the blood newspaper says.

Soon, the content of the bloody newspaper appeared again, but the words on it were extremely distorted and difficult to understand from the first one.

My name is Li Mo. I am you two days from now. I am telling you all the possibilities of the future through this newspaper.

The first two days of the five-day haunted house are for "reception," and the last three days are for "calling back the soul," "ferrying the soul," and "returning the soul."

[Two days later, you arrive at the fourth floor. The housing here has undergone a major change, and now it's a seemingly endless passage.]

[This is a forbidden place for the living, and has the greatest taboo of resurrection. ]

【You are Li Mo, you will die here.】

【No living person can survive the fourth day.】

"..."

"Must die?"

The prophecy on the first page of the notebook was very accurate, but it could tell me so directly, probably because it was waiting for me to ask for a way to survive.

But even the strange blood-stained newspaper said so. Could it be that there is really no way to survive on the fourth day?

Li Mo stretched out his hand and looked at his blue-gray arm. He didn't have much time left.

If he cannot deal with the strangeness and leave this world as soon as possible, the pollution in his body will worsen over time and eventually erode his consciousness and soul.

If we leave now, the weirdness will spread, and it will be a pipe dream to deal with it later.

This is his last life, he has no other choice but to go ahead with it.

Li Mo took out his cell phone, which was still fully charged.

Mei stored a recording in it. She once told Li Mo that if Li Mo really couldn't hold on any longer, he could open the recording she left behind, which might help him find himself again.

Of course, Li Mo did not disbelieve Mei. He recognized Mei's wisdom and foresight.

However, the two of them are not in the same time and space now. No matter how smart Mei is, it is impossible for her to cross time and space to eliminate her own pollution, not to mention the level of pollution that is about to become weird.

You should know that this recording already existed before Li Mo found the strange bud, and it has nothing to do with "making a wish", and "making a wish" cannot save himself.

Mei couldn't afford such a price, so she was excluded directly.

Therefore, this recording is nothing more than psychological comfort. It is most likely not a recording that helps him find himself, but a recording of Mei's inner thoughts that she has never told Li Mo in person.

Li Mo took back his phone and began to analyze the clues between the words on the bloody newspaper.

He first needs to think about which of these words are true and which are used to confuse the public.

After pondering for a moment, I found the third sentence: [Two days later, you are on the fourth floor. The housing here has undergone a major change, and it is now a passage with no end.]

Except for the one that can be verified on the fourth day, the rest of the words can be true or false and cannot be distinguished.

Li Mo could only start reasoning from the most basic part.

"Of the five days leading up to a haunted house, the first two are dedicated to 'reception.' It's known that there are three patterns during the first two days: 'being alone,' 'sleeping,' and 'pretending to be a ghost.'"

"'Hospitality' doesn't allow 'being alone', 'sleeping', or 'pretending to be a ghost'. Could it be that they treat living people as staff rather than guests? Then the room we're staying in isn't a guest room, but a staff dormitory."

"Kanagawa Yume is inextricably linked to the Ninth Room. What I saw in the dream is related to the rituals of the haunted house."

"The nightmare involved two specific events: hide-and-seek and a game resembling a "statue."

"The third floor is likely to combine the two games. Last night, when I was found under the haunted bed by the ghost next to the knocking ghost, I didn't die. This means that being seen by the ghost doesn't mean the game is over. It counts only when you are caught."

"Kanagawa Kimu's experience in a nightmare: when she runs, the person in her dream stops, and when she stops, the person in her dream runs."

"So if the third floor is discovered by a ghost, if you want to survive, you have to play the game of 'statue' with the ghost. The ghost's behavior is the standard. If the ghost moves, you can't move. If the ghost stops, you can take the opportunity to escape and hide somewhere else."

"But the question is who is it, who is the guest? Who is the staff?"

"Or maybe it doesn't matter. Anyone who is alive must be a guest."

Li Mo quickly deduced the pattern of the third floor, but also encountered new variables.

Assume that the guests and staff are used as reference for Party B and Party A.

From the perspective of "hide and seek", ghosts are staff members and the living people who are hiding are guests.

This contradicts the facts stated in the blood newspaper.

There is a discrepancy in the information. Either the blood newspaper lied, or there was a problem with the staff member in Kanagawa Yumeng's dream.

Because the role that Kanagawa Yumu plays in the dream is a staff member.

From the perspective of the "wooden man", the living people who are found after playing hide-and-seek still belong to the guests, while the ghosts belong to the staff, which conflicts with Kanagawa Yume's experience in the dream.

Do you believe the blood-stained newspaper that lies? Or do you believe Kanagawa Dream that never lies?

"Kanagawa can't lie, but people's memories and cognition can. There's another consciousness living in her mind."

"There is a possibility that the perspective Kanagawa uses is not her own, but the perspective of another consciousness in her mind."

"She is the one who runs when the other person stops and stops when the other person runs."

When the consciousness of a human and a ghost collides, it is easy for them to mistake the other person for themselves.

This is also why Li Mo is unwilling to believe what ordinary people say when performing tasks.

They want to survive, so they generally don't lie and tell everything they know in one breath.

But it is very likely that they are not even aware of it and unknowingly reveal the ghost's memories.

Li Mo kept this incident in mind and began to reason about the statements on the back of the bloody newspaper.

The next three days are respectively "calling back the soul", "ferrying the soul" and "returning the soul".

There is no doubt that "summoning spirits" is to summon nearby ghosts to the third floor.

There are up to thirty-two ghosts in one room. Li Mo doesn't need to imagine how many ghosts are dormant in such a big house.

There is a saying that hits the nail on the head: when you find a cockroach in your home, it means that cockroaches have become an infestation in the invisible dark corners because the darkness can no longer accommodate cockroaches.

There is no doubt that the number of ghosts will reach an extremely terrifying level tonight.

If you don't follow the rules, any living person will die instantly without any means of remedy.

He is also included.

"Duhun" literally means to comfort the dead souls.

When a person's consciousness disappears, the soul that carries the consciousness will gradually dissipate as the consciousness disappears.

Since souls can be ferryed, there must be a means to preserve souls, and the most important role: the ferryman.

Li Mo remembered the rosemary that Irene had given him before. He kissed the rosemary, thinking that his consciousness and soul should be stored in it.

After waking up, I found a dark path, and at the end of it was an endless ocean.

The sea is filled with bright spots like stars in the sky, flashing a dazzling blue light.

Li Mo did not see his own reflection in the ocean, and lost the concept of time while crossing the sea.

The ocean seems vast and boundless, but in fact it passes by in the blink of an eye.

It is normal for the soul to lack the understanding of reality and not feel the passage of time, Li Mo thought.

Combined with the content of the bloody newspaper: [The fourth floor is a passage that never ends.]

It just corresponds to the fact that the soul has no concept of time.

"This sentence is most likely true."

"If I want to know the clues for the fourth day, I need Kanagawa to sleep on the third floor tonight."

"Then I need to find someone to stay with me, to prevent Kanagawa from changing his identity after falling asleep and leaving me alone."

The last day, which is the ceremony on the fifth floor, is the final process: "Return of the Soul".

From the literal meaning, it is almost like bringing the dead back to life, an absolute taboo.

Li Mo had also touched upon this taboo after briefly obtaining Guiqi's power of time and space.

Reverse time and bring those who were not dead yet to the time node where he is.

This may also be what Otto Apokalis has been pursuing, to return to the original time and space and change the predetermined destiny as an outsider.

However, the disadvantages are also obvious. The resurrected person has indelible pollution on his body. If he dies of old age, it is fine. But if he survives too long through special means, he will become a troublesome ghost.

From various perspectives, bringing the deceased back to the present is almost impossible, extremely costly, and difficult to achieve.

"I have no clue. I can't find many clues about the fifth floor on the second floor. I can only go to the third floor first."

"You're going to be playing games with an unknown number of ghosts at night, so you have to familiarize yourself with the environment beforehand."

It didn't matter that Li Mo could see clearly in the dark, but the people in the supernatural department were all ordinary people. They were absolutely not allowed to turn on the lights while playing games with ghosts. They could only rely on hearing and memory to grope forward.

"It's time to deal with you next. Do you have anything else to say to me?"
