Weird Talker

Chapter 13
She was silent for a long time.

The clouds briefly covered the moonlight, casting a huge shadow on Fucheng.

She also looked at Qin Manjiang at this moment and said:
"I believe."

Yes, she should believe it.

Such a big reaction to the icon of the ghost talk game is enough to explain the problem. Qin Manjiang didn't ask this question to reveal anything to her. In fact, he himself didn't know what the game was. He just wanted to Test Xi Wutong's sincerity.

In retrospect, that software, while unusual, had a fair amount of artifacts in its design, both the interface and the so-called tasks.

How does it lead people into strange talks?
After all, those ghost stories originally existed in this world, were discovered by it, and then guided players to play the game.Or...there are no such things as gods, ghosts and ghost stories in the world, and those ghost stories are all created because of this game?

It is very important to understand these two points.

However, even though he has already experienced a novice single-player mission, he still has no clue. A game with obvious traces of artificial design really has the ability to plunge people into the world of ghost stories.

It might even... have real-world implications.

This is too unbelievable.

Qin Manjiang believes that everything is meaningful, and the person who made this game must have his own intentions, but at present Qin Manjiang really does not know what the people or organizations behind the game want to do.

And Dr. Xi, who appeared in front of him, was a good source of information.

"Have you ever seen this icon on the mobile phone of someone around you?" Qin Manjiang asked.

Xi Wutong hesitated for a moment, as if hesitating for something.

"Mr. Qin, if you are willing to tell me what this icon represents, then I will also tell you some very important information about you."

She seemed to have finally made up her mind, but she seemed to be pretending to show Qin Manjiang.

More importantly, Qin Manjiang noticed that she avoided her own questions and started a new topic.

Qin Manjiang is not a person who makes things difficult for others. Since Xi Wutong didn't want to mention things about himself, he didn't ask any more. But, information about himself?
This made Qin Manjiang a little curious.

He was just an extremely ordinary college student, and soon, he wasn't even a college student anymore.

Do I have any secrets like this?
Just when Qin Manjiang was hesitating whether to reveal the secrets of the ghost talk game to Xi Wutong, something strange happened, and a strong tingling pain appeared deep in his brain, as if someone was holding a long needle and pierced it from the back of his head. It pierced in like it smashed his brain.

it hurts!

Qin Manjiang is a person with amazing resilience, but even he couldn't bear the pain. His face turned pale in an instant, and beads of sweat burst out.

"Mr. Qin?"

Xi Wutong was a little surprised, but she was a doctor herself, and she was not anxious when she saw this, and she was going to help him immediately.

But Qin Manjiang reached out to stop her, shook his head with difficulty and said, "Please...leave me first."

"quick……"

Although Xi Wutong didn't understand what he meant, but seeing his painful appearance, he immediately followed suit and did not help him on his own initiative.

She picked up her handbag and hurried off the bench.

Seeing her leave, Qin Manjiang immediately took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

This unbearable pain was accompanied by an extremely terrifying premonition. I looked at the screen and pressed the icon of the ghost talk game...

When the screen went dark and turned on again, a line of scarlet text came into Qin Manjiang's eyes.

[Warning, players must not disclose the existence of the game. 】

[Offenders will be erased. 】

So, is this pain a warning?

Qin Manjiang knew it in his mind.

Xi Wutong saw the icon of Guaitan game on his mobile phone. At that time, the game did not respond, but now when he had the idea of ​​revealing the details of this game to Xi Wutong, he was immediately warned to this extent. .

In just ten seconds, the shirt was thinly attached to his body, completely drenched in sweat. He didn't want to experience this kind of pain again.

It seems that being found with the game on a phone has nothing to do with it, but it definitely doesn't explain it.

"Mr. Qin? Are you better?"

Xi Wutong was very polite, she even turned her back and didn't look at Qin Manjiang.

After tidying himself up, Qin Manjiang said, "Okay, please come here."

Only then did Xi Wutong turn around, look carefully at Qin Manjiang, and after confirming that his complexion had recovered a lot, he came to the bench and sat down, saying: "Mr. Qin can make an appointment for a medical examination. For heart palpitations, I suggest a full-day dynamic electrocardiogram and coronary angiography."

Qin Manjiang shook his head and thanked her for her kindness: "It's okay, I know the cause of the pain just now, and it has little to do with physiological factors."

"Continuing what I just said, I'm sorry Doctor Xi, I can't explain the origin of the icon to you, nor can I reveal its meaning, but... since you believe in ghosts, I believe you can figure out some problems yourself."

Qin Manjiang tentatively said that the phone didn't respond this time, which made him more or less relieved.

Xi Wutong seemed to have noticed something, Qin Manjiang's painful expression just now, and her sudden change of attitude, plus her own guesses about the icon of the ghost talk game.

In fact, the answer is already obvious.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin."

"I didn't say anything." Qin Manjiang said.

Xi Wutong remained silent and said nothing more.

Suddenly, Xi Wutong sat up straight and looked at him seriously.

Although the light here is poor, Qin Manjiang still feels the complexity in her eyes.

"Mr. Qin, you are actually..."

"I'm Lao Qin's adopted child, right?"

Qin Manjiang interrupted Xi Wutong.

Xi Wutong was really surprised this time, but Qin Manjiang's expression remained unchanged. He said: "It's not a secret. Lao Qin said that my name was taken by the old village chief, but I later learned that the old village chief took my name from me. He passed away two years before he was born, and the new village head is in his thirties, which doesn't match the description of Lao Qin."

He even smiled: "Besides, it can be seen from the appearance alone that Qin Yiyi and Lao Qin both have round faces with dimples, but the longer I look like them, the less I look like them."

"It is true that I have no blood relationship with him, but it makes no difference." Qin Manjiang said to Xi Wutong.

Xi Wutong listened quietly, and after a while, she smiled: "That's right."

"However, I want to tell you one thing, Mr. Qin." Xi Wutong's attitude became serious.

"You should also know that the place where you grew up, Xiajiang Village, has been murdered at an annual frequency for 20 years. The person who committed the murder this year is even your sister."

"But these cases are too bizarre. Including your sister's case this time, none of them can be discussed on the table. The death of your father Qin Linghan and your adoptive mother Chen Xiuzhi is also the same."

Xi Wutong revealed an amazing news to Qin Manjiang.

"My adoptive mother? Didn't she die when she was satisfied with giving birth to Qin?" Qin Manjiang asked. He asked Lao Qin this question when he was a child, and Lao Qin's answer was just like this.

"Your adoptive mother is the same as your adoptive father." Xi Wutong paused, subconsciously lowering his voice, "No...it is the entire Xiajiang Village. In the past 20 years, except for natural deaths, there has been an average of one person per year. They committed suicide, and their cause of death was exactly the same - they walked into the river and drowned themselves alive."

Xi Wutong breathed a sigh of relief: "Although your sister pleaded guilty in person, she will not be prosecuted. Apart from her clear alibi, there is another point. The deceased also walked into the river by herself this time. But one eyewitness said he saw another person by the river—your sister."
