Chapter 299 Confrontation of Personalities


    ? Xu Huo was very conscious. He knew that Xu Zhi was dead. Even if he saw Xu Zhi in the hospital, it was just his fantasy.


    ??This hospital may not be the location of the replica, but it can undoubtedly affect people''s mental state.


    The "real world" you see after escaping, the "family members" you send to the hospital for treatment, and the "relatives" you visit are all steps to destroy your own spiritual world.


    ?The most certain and deep-rooted cognition has been overturned, and everyone will start to doubt themselves. The people who come in are more or less affected. The worse the person''s condition, the better this mental hospital seems to be.


    “Xu Huo?” Yu Qingqing waved her hand in front of his eyes.


    "I want to change my clothes." Xu Huo said and walked to his ward. After entering, he opened his wardrobe, which contained a complete set of new clothes and shoes.


    Changing out of his hospital gown, he went to the reception room.


    It was already dark by this time.


    Father Xu and Ms. Fang were leaning against each other. Their eyes turned red when they saw him. Xu Zhi stood aside and looked much more mature and experienced than Xu Huo remembered.


    “You haven’t shaved.” Xu Huo pointed at Xu Zhi’s chin.


    Xu Zhi smiled and said, "I''ve been so busy these days that I haven''t had time to tidy up my appearance, but you''ve tidied up quite neatly, which is good."


    They sat down. Ms. Fang first asked him how he was doing in the hospital, whether he was in a good mood, and whether he had enough food. She also took out a large bag of clothes that she had prepared in advance.


    Xu Huo took the things and turned to Xu Zhi, "I heard that you went abroad. What are you doing now?"


    “It’s not a serious job, I’m just giving lessons here and there.” Xu Zhi looked very tired, “I still want to open a research institute and do it myself. Working for others means I have to do what others do, which is neither free nor comfortable.”


    “It’s good to do it yourself, are you short of money?” Xu Huo asked.


    ?Xu Zhi smiled and said, "If I''m short of money, can I still ask you for it?"


    "Don''t worry, I''m not short of money, and neither is my family. My parents and I are fine, but we just miss you a little. You stay here well, and I''ll pick you up after a while. Then our whole family will be together Go on a self-drive trip.”


    Xu Huo stretched out his hand towards him.


    “What are you doing?” Xu Zhi looked at him strangely.


    “Have you brought the key?” Xu Huo asked.


    ?Xu Zhi''s expression slowly changed, his gentle smile disappeared, and he was a little sad in his coldness. He asked, "Can''t you live a normal life? Your parents are looking forward to your return home."


    "Whether my family is together or apart, we are still family, and it will not change because of whether I am normal or not." Xu Huang took back, "Over the years, I have been thinking about your appearance when you were shot, and you left without leaving a word. My mother has been depressed for two years and my father divorced and moved abroad. My father also has a new family. It seems that we are all moving forward, but this article will never be over. "


    “Now I have a chance to turn over this article.”


    Xu Zhi cried, and slowly took out a key from his bag and put it on the table, "Xu Huo, don''t forget me."


    "No." Xu Huo picked up the key and the door appeared in front of him again. He stepped onto the spiral staircase again and started to run down quickly.


    Soon, the first person appeared, then the second, and then the third.


    ?The three people followed him, and after no one caught up with anyone, they disappeared one after another. After a while, the process repeated again.


    It was like this for a full twenty-four hours before he reached the bottom of the tower. This time the round tower was not as bright as the last time. In the dimness, the black sheet on the round table was enlarged, and the playing cards, **** dagger and white-shell book were all visible. It looks dim. Xu Huo walked over and sat down, placing his hands on the table. The white-covered book first became bright.


    After a few minutes, the black flakes shrank. At the same time, the inside of the tower also began to brighten. The light became dazzling for a time. He subconsciously closed his eyes, but when he opened them again, there were three more chairs beside the round table, and the chairs were sitting on them. Three mannequin-like shadows, three black figures without facial contours, all turned to look at him.


    Xu Huo did not speak, but tried to open the book in front of him, but failed to open it.


    After a stalemate for half an hour, one of the figures raised his playing cards and asked him, "What suit do you think this is?"


    A voice exactly like mine, but with a slightly higher pitch and a joking tone.


    “Heart peach.” Xu Huo answered his question.


    The playing cards were put back on the table, this time facing up, it was an "Ace of Hearts", but the color on it was visibly melted away.


    Xu Huo frowned, and the figure behind the playing cards disappeared.


    The second figure picked up the dagger and said in a flat and emotionless voice: "Whose blood?"


    “Xu Zhi’s.”


    The figure stabbed himself in the chest with a dagger, and then disappeared.


    In the end, only a figure and the black sheet in front of him were left.


    The third figure did not ask questions, but patted the black sheet. What was originally placed on the table like paper suddenly turned into a shadow and spread quickly, submerging everything including the round tower and the spiral staircase, leaving only Xu Huo and The white-shelled book in front of him.


    Xu Huo couldn''t see himself. He could only see the book in front of him, so he reached for it and opened the cover.


    The white color spread out from the book and soon opened a path in the pure black, leading to the spiral staircase and then spiraling upward, dyeing all the stone steps white. The uneven stone surface was like boiling water churning rapidly, and it took a few minutes to calm down. Yu calmed down and slowly became smooth.


    ?Xu Huo looked around and stepped back onto the spiral staircase without staying too long.


    The new steps are like water. Every time he takes a step, ripples will spread out, and the white color will spread around. As he walks, the edges of the originally regular steps overlap in arcs, and the area expands.


    ?Stepping out of the round tower was his room. Xu Huo rubbed his brows and sat down by the bed, thinking about how to control the round tower.


    "Dong dong dong! Don''t dong dong!" There was a rapid knock on the door. He turned around and saw the tall black man and said, "The door is unlocked."


    ??The tall black man turned the door handle hard, but the door could not be opened. He said in panic: "Please, open the door for me..."


    Xu Huo realized that the other party''s mental power had been strengthened. He quickly walked over and opened the door. The tall black man squeezed in and closed the door first. As he locked it, he said: "There is a weirdo chasing me!"


    “There’s nothing outside.” Xu Huo glanced.


    "Yes! Yes!" The tall black man was very excited. He leaned against the door and peeked out from the corner of the glass window. "He has stitches on his face. He is obviously a man, but he took a woman''s hand and did a manicure...ah... ! I overheard the doctor''s conversation when I came out. They want to use us for human experiments and turn us into monsters!"


    ? Xu Huo knocked the person down with one punch and dragged him to the corner, "Just be patient for a while. I''m in trouble if you imagine a weirdo."
