Chapter 345: Volume 1 Chapter 345 Weird Comic (15)
The little girl used a key to open the courtyard gate, then led her inside.
"Sis, this is my home."
Jiang Zhi glanced at the courtyard; junk piled up in the corner, the brick-built house common in the countryside.
She followed the little girl into the house, and it grew colder.
The temperature inside was actually lower than outside.
The light illuminated the whole living room; the furniture was crude, and moss grew on the damp walls.
Jiang Zhi pressed her lips together.
The girl brought a cup of water to her, nervously saying, "Sis, have some water."
Jiang Zhi took the water but didn't drink.
Suddenly the sound of a lock came from behind; she turned and saw a woman holding a kitchen knife, calling toward the bedroom: "You're out!"
As the words fell, a middle-aged man wielding an iron hoe stepped out, closing the bedroom door behind him.
Jiang Zhi saw this and lowered her head to look at the little girl.
The little girl cried, "Sorry… sorry… sis…"
Jiang Zhi sighed and said, "You're crying fake."
The little girl suddenly froze, staring blankly with her eyes wide open.
The old woman wasn't in a hurry to kill her, smiling and saying, "You did well; I'll feed you tonight."
The little girl ignored her words, furrowed her brows, and asked Jiang Zhi, "What did you just say?"
Jiang Zhi raised an eyebrow and said, "From the moment you appeared before me, I knew you wanted to harm me."
The little girl clenched her fist, nails digging into her palm, her pale face showing a cold expression.
"Impossible!"
Jiang Zhi showed no fear, naturally sat on the sofa, and calmly said, "Alright, let's get to the point; you just need to answer one question for me: is there anyone here named Wen Chijin?"
In the dream world, Wen Chijin might have changed his appearance; rather than searching everywhere, it's better to wait by the tree for a rabbit.
He had said before that he liked her eyes the most.
The man with the iron hoe didn't want to hear her nonsense any more; he stepped forward to smash the hoe onto her forehead, but Jiang Zhi easily dodged, grabbed one end of the hoe, jerked it hard, and knocked the man out cold.
Dealing with the old woman was easier; she picked up the fallen kitchen knife from the ground and stretched her body.
"I've been frozen too long; my body isn't very nimble."
In that terrifying school, she needed to keep up her persona, but here she didn't.
The little girl stood where she was, sniffing the faint scent from her down jacket, and suddenly laughed.
"Why are you looking for me?"
Jiang Zhi hadn't reacted yet, "Huh?"
The little girl lifted her hand to tie up her long hair, revealing a face so beautiful it looked like a delicate doll placed in a glass case, her dark pupils reflecting her silhouette.
"I'm Wen Chijin, sis—why are you looking for me?"
Jiang Zhi: "????"
The long-haired girl before her eyes was actually Wen Chijin?
Wait, isn't Wen Chijin a boy?
He curiously stepped closer, eyes full of delight: "Sis, how do you know my name?"
Jiang Zhi said nothing, sucked in a breath of cold air, and stepped back.
How should she complete her mission? The Comic System said she needed to change him—but what exactly? To stop him from killing?
But—
Jiang Zhi never expected this.
Wen Chijin was already this perverted as a child.
"You're Wen Chijin? How is that possible?"
She still couldn't believe it.
The child tilted her head, a pure clear smile: "I'm Wen Chijin, sis—if you don't believe me, I can show you my household register."
Jiang Zhi: "No need."
She had already believed it; only Wen Chijin could show such a smile, extremely deceptive.
The child took advantage of her inattention and moved closer.
While Jiang Zhi was lost in thought, the child poured the water from the cup onto her face.
Jiang Zhi was caught off guard; her body quickly became abnormal and she collapsed to the ground.
The child leaned close to her eyes, fingertips lightly touching her corners, whispering, "Sis, I really like your eyes—will you give them to me?"
Jiang Zhi couldn't utter a word; the drug in the water acted so fast she didn't need to drink it—just touching her skin took effect.
The child blinked happily: "If you don't speak, that means you agree~"
……
(Dream Two)
Jiang Zhi suddenly woke up, her breathing unsteady, she sat up from the bed, forehead covered in cold sweat.
She covered her chest, calming her fluctuating emotions.
That child had gouged out her eyeballs; although she felt no pain, the sensation of her sight fading from light to dark was extremely uncomfortable.
Finally, the child stabbed her through the heart with a knife, and she died on the spot.
Jiang Zhi, still frightened, exhaled and hastily wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
Too scary.
However, she almost understood what the Comic System's task for her was.
Changing Wen Chijin should be similar to her previous world; pursue Wen Chijin and then max out his Hatred Value.
But for now, she cannot clearly know Wen Chijin's two values, so she can only take it step by step.
This dream is different from the last; she has gained some extra memories.
The original host was born into an ordinary family; her parents were honest and simple, but both were deaf-mute, and the original host was no exception—she could hear nothing and could not speak.
Not long ago, the parents brought home a boy, saying he would stay temporarily, but the original host knew the boy would live there a long time because her parents liked him a lot.
The boy had a gentle temperament; as the only healthy person in the household, he often helped the original host's parents with chores, and though young, he was especially well-behaved and obedient.
The story begins from this moment.
Jiang Zhi nearly fainted after viewing all of the original host's memories.
This boy is Wen Chijin; the most terrifying thing is that he loves watching others being deceived by him, then delivering a fatal blow.
He enjoys it immensely.
So the original host's parents and the original host herself will die at his hands.
Jiang Zhi suddenly got out of bed, stumbled out of the bedroom, and at a glance saw the black-haired boy preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
Upon hearing the footsteps, Wen Chijin stopped his actions; seeing the girl rush anxiously into the living room, he gestured in sign language.
"Sis, what's wrong?"
The moment Jiang Zhi saw his face, her mind cleared; she suppressed her emotions and signed, "It's nothing, just a nightmare."
Wen Chijin, hearing that, walked over and handed her a cup of red date tea.
"Don't be scared; dreams are fake."
Jiang Zhi took the cup and drank it all in one gulp, silently thinking to herself.
—This dream, I will definitely make him regret it!
She put down the cup and raised her fingers to sign:
"I dreamed you left, A Chi."
Wen Chijin's eyes softened; he shook his head and said, "I won't leave, sis."
Jiang Zhi slightly lowered the corners of her eyes; her pupils were like warm jade sunk in clear spring water, light filtering through, making them lovely and moving.
Her slender white fingers swayed in the air.
"A Chi, thank you for comforting me."
