I'm mentally retarded, who asked me to join Rules Monster Talk?

Chapter 196 His truth

Speaking of that past event, Clemens still couldn't contain his emotions, and his fists couldn't help but tremble.

"I hurriedly opened the door and saw the girl, dying, leaning in front of my door. With just one glance, I knew that they were venting their anger on their daughter, causing her to run to my door for help. And... He actually fought like that. I felt angry! The idea of ​​helping her came into my mind, so I picked up the knife and walked into the next room."

"However, when I think about it now, I regret it very much, because my impulsive decision was the beginning of all tragedies..."

What happens next can basically be guessed, and this may be the origin of the ogre.

However, Xiao Yi didn't think about this aspect at all. He cared about other things.

Clemens was about to continue, but Xiao Yi suddenly remembered something and interrupted:

"Huh? Wait, you mean...help me?"

Clemens' description gave Xiao Yi a strangely familiar feeling, as if he had experienced it before, similar to a sense of déjà vu.

"Well, what's the problem?" Clemens asked.

"This..." Xiao Yi couldn't help but start to recall the scene that night.

Suddenly, the vague impression in Xiao Yi's mind became clear, because the reality in front of him suddenly changed.

Xiao Yi and Clemens were originally standing in a clean kitchen, but now, they are standing in a long and dark corridor, next to the door, and the light in the distant room is bright, but so... It's dark and weird.

"That's it!" Xiao Yi then remembered, wasn't this what he encountered on the first night? Xiao Yi immediately asked: "Is the situation you are talking about the same as the situation we are in now?"

"...Eh?" Clemens was stunned.

Everything in front of him was exactly the same as the scene in his memory!

The memory that he wanted to bury once again stung Clemens' nerves, and he felt like his brain was shaking.

at this time……

Boom, boom, boom!

A knock on the door suddenly sounded, and then, a faint cry for help was intertwined with the knock on the door.

"……help me."

"Ah...ah..." Clemens's pupils shrank to tiny points. His legs seemed to have lost the strength to support him, and he collapsed directly to the ground.

"What's wrong? What's going on?" It was also the first time that Xiao Yi saw Clemens looking so scared.

Moreover, Xiao Yi didn't understand why the scene he had encountered before was once again played out in front of him.

It's like a staged drama.

However, what was different from the last time was that this time Clemens saw the same scene as himself.

Moreover, Clemens’s reaction was also very strange, as if...

The audience in the live broadcast room was immediately confused and couldn't figure out what was going on. At this time, Xiao Yi's words made everyone suddenly realize!

Xiao Yi asked: "Clay, is this... a scene you have experienced in your memory?"

Only then did most people understand the current situation and exclaimed on the spot! broken! Their IQs seemed to have been really crushed by Xiao Yi!

"I...I..." Clemens, on the other hand, was just holding his head and did not respond to Xiao Yi.

Boom, boom, boom!

The knocking on the door became more urgent and harsh!

Then, they saw something existing at the end of the long dark corridor.

That was... a corpse that they were extremely familiar with.

Boom, boom, boom!

The knocking on the door continued.

Her back was to the room filled with light, but her face, which was immersed in darkness, could clearly see a bright red lip that looked like a watermelon being sliced ​​open.

"...That's not right."

She did not ask for help, but said so and slowly took a step towards the two of them.

"Ah...ahhh! No...forgive me!" Clemens' reaction suddenly became excited.

"...What's going on?" Xiao Yi looked at this scene and was completely confused. At this time, Xiao Yi suddenly remembered something.

After what happened that night, Xiao Yi had an extra page in his hand.

Because he read it many times, Xiao Yi tentatively remembered the above content, and the content is:

【My life is always dark, therefore, I never expect to see the sun. I will help others just because I still want to live, so I also know very well that others help me just because they still want to live. 】

Xiao Yi seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Clemens and asked:

"Clemens, you...did you open the door because you really wanted to help that girl?"

"..."

Because of these words, Clemens suddenly fell silent.

"You said you don't want to hide secrets from me anymore, but you still have something to hide after all." Xiao Yi stared at him, "What is the real situation? Are you willing to tell it?"

"I..." Looking at Xiao Yi, Clemens seemed to have finally calmed down, "I'm sorry, I'm so stupid. How can I solve the problem if I don't raise it?"

Clemens finally summoned up the courage.

"Coming here and encountering these things must be the judgment of fate on me. Therefore, I can no longer hide anything. Thank you, Xiao Yi. Thanks to you, I can realize this."

Then, he glanced at the tightly closed door next to him, then looked at the corpse approaching, and slowly spoke the true side of his heart.

"I...actually am not a good person. I know it better than anyone else. So, when I heard her cry for help, I actually didn't want to save her."

The corpse suddenly stopped, as if listening to Clemens's words.

"Growing up, everyone has been praising me for being kind and a good person. But I am not actually kind. I just want people to praise me for being kind, so I pretend to be kind. I have no father or mother. I am an orphan with no relatives, and I rely on every family in the village to feed me. If I don’t pretend to be likeable, I will definitely starve to death, so I can only protect myself with kindness.”

"I was actually very afraid of that family, afraid that they would hurt me, so I kept enduring it. But their daughter, that girl, liked me very much and always came to me, and I had to respond with kindness. I hate it. Her! Because if she does this, it will undoubtedly put me in a situation where I will confront her parents!"

"The people who live there hate that couple, but they also pity their daughter. Therefore, they often take good care of me and always tell me that I must take good care of the girl and protect her."

"I scolded them over and over again in my heart for those guys who only talk gossip but never really help the child. If they were willing to help, there wouldn't be so many things and they would have been solved long ago. They are just too troublesome. That’s all. I also know their thoughts very well. If someone has to help, then why does it have to be me? So everyone wants to push out one person to solve it, and I am the unlucky guy. "

"But no matter how clear I am, I can only agree with a smile on the surface, because it is precisely because of their help that my life studying abroad can be so stable."

"The girl naturally got closer to me, and sure enough, she came to me for help. I didn't want to respond to her, so I pretended to be asleep and didn't hear her. All I thought about was to leave quickly. I can't hear you and go find someone else. Why did you come to me? But then, her parents chased her out and continued to beat her, and their heart-wrenching cries terrified me."

"It's not that I'm afraid of what will happen to the child, but that other people will definitely hear such a loud noise. If I pretend not to hear at this time, people will definitely be suspicious, and my carefully constructed kindness may collapse. Therefore, I cherish Feeling fear, he rushed out the door with a knife, threatened the couple not to beat or scold the child again, and told the child not to listen to such parents anymore, because they don't love you."

"Because of this incident, I have also been praised, which makes me very satisfied. At the same time, when that child looked at me, his eyes full of hope are still unforgettable to me. She would not have thought of this rescue. People who kill themselves are actually hypocrites who only act for their own selfish interests."

When Clemens said this, he choked up and continued: "Then, what I didn't expect was that my hypocrisy completely destroyed that child."

"After that, I was afraid of confronting the family again, so I stayed outside during the day and sneaked home late at night, just to avoid them. However, I lived next door to them after all, and the walls were very thin. I couldn’t avoid their voices, so I could only reduce the noise and try to pretend I wasn’t there or asleep.”

"But their voices were inevitably heard by me. After that, they beat and scolded the child even harder, and the reason was me. Because they provoked them, they vented their anger on me. On to the kid.”

"It's all my fault, which made her more miserable. However, I have always known about her situation, but instead of helping her like before, I chose to remain silent and turn a blind eye, which led to her tragedy. .”

Clemens looked at the corpse and said slowly: "This is my sin, a sin that has not been revealed in court. I have finished my statement. If you want to judge me, please start."

"..." The corpse didn't say anything and just disappeared.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi nodded slowly, but he was still puzzled about something, so he asked: "But what about the ogre?"

"That's what happened later." Clemens opened the door, and outside was a strange corridor. "It's the same as what I remembered. Sure enough, things have changed outside. So... Xiao Yi, come on, the truth. It’s in this room next door.”

As Clemens spoke, he had already arrived at the door of the next room, and there was the truth about why he became an ogre.
