"...Excuse me, who are you?"

The moment I saw Chen Lusi.

Sun Rensheng's heartbeat accelerated instantly, his hands clenched into fists, his whole body tensed, and his expression was extremely stiff.

But he kept calm, still pretending not to know anything, and asked.

He can't recognize it!

He definitely won’t recognize it!

I don’t have any soul in me... Although I don’t know how he found me, he must not know who I am!

"Feeling scared?"

Chen Lusi took a step forward, left the guardrail, looked at Sun Rensheng's stiff expression, and said softly: "Then why can you feel at ease and let the deceased go through what he fears and regrets most? Your fear is fear, and other people's are not?"

"What on earth are you talking about? I don't know what you are talking about!"

Sun Rensheng could already hear his heart beating like a drum.

"A young girl who wants to exchange her life with others, a middle-aged man who cannot see the future and hides, a mother who cannot come back, and a mother and son who feel guilty about each other."

Chen Lusi looked at Sun Rensheng and continued: "This place is very close to the crematorium. You should be able to hear a lot of crying, right? Even so, can you use their pain to build a strange world with peace of mind?

I am obviously afraid, so why can I ignore those cries, those pains, and those fears?

Just because of a slogan? To gain freedom? To gain freedom by insulting the dead?”

"……I do not know what you're talking about!"

Sun Rensheng became angry from embarrassment. He waved his hand violently, suppressed his trembling, and turned around to leave: "Where is this lunacy!"

He didn't even close the door, looked towards the front of the corridor, and strode away.

"Do you think those threads disappear when they are cut off? Those threads of the dead are actually always on your head... don't you know?"

Chen Lusi's voice came again.

At the same time, the sound of Chen Lusi’s footsteps came.

Like a reminder.

"……How can it be!!!!"

When Sun Rensheng heard this, he finally collapsed. He turned around suddenly, raised his right hand with a roar, and released his authority over Chen Lusi. With the other hand, he took out two sapphire-like stones from his pocket and was about to stuff them into his mouth.

go.

Several thin lines appeared on his right arm and spread forward.

But the next second.

brush--

The sharp blade broke through the air, and the thin thread broke directly.

Sun Rensheng's eyes widened and he looked at Chen Lusi, who was approaching and wielding a knife sideways. He opened his mouth slightly and stayed in place.

Such a scene really happened before my eyes... it was more shocking than expected.

Before he could react, a big hand suddenly held his other hand.

Sun Rensheng reacted immediately and wanted to force the stone into his mouth.

But Chen Lusi held his hand tightly, and even if he tried his best, he could not move his hand even a millimeter.

"..."

Sun Rensheng looked at Chen Lusi's blue eyes with a look of despair.

For the first time, I regretted not practicing properly.

"Answer me, do you think you can gain freedom by insulting the dead?"

Chen Lusi held Sun Rensheng's hand with her left hand, and the twisted flesh and blood on her right hand returned to normal and turned into a normal palm.

He grabbed Sun Rensheng's neck, slowly lifted him up, and asked again.

"Ho--"

Sun Rensheng looked away and looked at the stone in front of him. His left hand was shaking crazily due to excessive exertion.

Just eat it!

Just eat it and you will get out of trouble!

Chen Lusi also looked away and glanced at the two sapphire-like objects he held in his hands. He recalled the stones he had glimpsed and probably guessed what they were.

He pinched Sun Rensheng's wrist, slowly applied force, and then violently broke it aside.

Click——

There was a tooth-aching sound of bone fractures.

"ah--"

Sun Rensheng opened his mouth suddenly, the flesh on his face trembled, and his eyes bulged as he stared at Chen Lusi.

then.

jingle.

His hands dropped weakly, unable to hold anything anymore, and the two stones fell to the ground.

The two stones made a clear tinkling sound, like a bell announcing death.

Sun Rensheng looked at the last hope on the ground and was completely in despair.

He looked at the expressionless Chen Lusi, and for the first time he felt that he was so close to death.

die.

This word, which he was accustomed to, actually frightened him so much.

He doesn't want to die!

He doesn't want to die!!

Sun Rensheng suddenly started struggling violently, kicking his feet wildly, and using his still mobile hand to forcefully slap Chen Lusi's hand that was choking his neck.

His authority is to control the dead! He does not allow himself to become the dead! He is the master of the dead! How could he die!

How could he die!!!

"A person who tells others not to act like a loser when they are powerless will behave like a loser when they are most powerless before death."

Chen Lusi's right arm remained motionless, slowly exerting force, and said softly: "But a person who wantonly insults the dead and has no respect for death... ends up being afraid of death."

"You are really embarrassed."

"Have you never thought that one day you will encounter the same situation?"

"Perhaps you haven't thought about it...you have always placed yourself in a higher position."

"Then, now I invite you to experience it."

"What it feels like to be dead."

Chen Lusi pinched Sun Rensheng's hand harder and harder.

The strong feeling of suffocation slowly made Sun Rensheng stop struggling.

There is no spirit in him.

In just a few seconds, I couldn't hold on any longer.

Sun Rensheng's face turned purple, he groaned, and finally looked at Chen Lusi.

The sun shines on Chen Lusi.

He turned his back to the sun, which lengthened his shadow.

A room filled with floating dust.

Sun Rensheng was in a trance and seemed to see more than one shadow on the ground.

A young girl in her prime, a middle-aged man holding a black umbrella, a young woman in red holding a baby, and a mother and son.

They suddenly appeared behind Chen Lusi, with no hatred on their faces and looking at him calmly.

Each of them has a thin thread on their head, and the end of the thread is tied to Chen Lusi's wrist...

Sun Rensheng slowly opened his eyes and suddenly remembered the scene in his dream.

The figure who looked like a god strangled his neck tightly.

No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free.

...just like right now.

He finally looked at Chen Lusi, who had his back to the sun, and suddenly tears and mucus welled up in his eyes.

Huge fear appeared on his face.

I should have discovered it earlier...

I should have left earlier...

Surely he can find himself...

I see.

It turns out...he is really their god.

It turns out that he is the master of death.

Why...didn't I discover it earlier?

Sun Rensheng's eyes rolled white, the last thought came to his mind, and then his body stiffened... and he died completely.

He wasn't strangled to death...but he was scared to death.
