Chapter 484 - Illusions and Nightmares

In the gloomy labyrinth, Qian Yu carried a dim oil lamp and walked in the labyrinth.

It was dark and silent, and there was nothing but the sound of his own footsteps......

Qianyu walked forward in silence until a stone door appeared in front of her. Coming to the door, Qian Yu didn't seem to hesitate and pushed the stone door open.

Behind the stone door, there is a wooden coffin. And Qian Yu still didn't say a word, just walked to the wooden coffin in silence, quietly looking at the lid of the wooden coffin.

At this moment, the lid of the wooden coffin suddenly trembled, and there was a sound of collision inside the coffin, but Qian Yu still seemed to be unconscious, still standing in place.

This is...... What's wrong?

With a loud bang, the lid of the coffin was lifted directly from the wooden coffin. "Bang!"

In front of Qian Yu, a man in a red Siamese cat battle suit slowly sat up. Unlike ordinary people, his face was not bloody, and the area of his throat seemed to have been pierced by something, revealing a piercing hole several centimeters in diameter.

The man's mouth opened and closed in vain, and his fierce gaze was fixed on Chiba. After a few moments, the man covered the front and back sides of his neck with his hands and finally made a sound. "Why did you kill me...... Why do you want to kill me......"

With that, the man stood up from the coffin in an almost incredibly flexible position, and then jumped in front of Chiba. The man's height of more than 1.8 meters is exactly about the same as Qianyu's height, and he stared at Qianyu's eyes like this, and his hands also stretched out and grabbed Qianyu's neck.

"Why...... Why! The man continued to open and close his mouth, making the same lip service, and only the hideous expression on his face could tell how crazy his tone would be if he could make a sound. Why are you killing me...... Why kill me! ”

Without any resistance, Qian Yu was choked by the man's throat like this.

…………

“!!!” Qian Yu let out a scream, and then suddenly came to his senses.

The ability to think, which seemed to be completely stagnant before, became smooth in an instant, and the data flow of the long-lost auxiliary unit once again joined the chorus of Qianyu's brain.

There is no doubt that I just had a nightmare.

"Whew-whew-" Qian Yu held his forehead with an unrelieved expression and sat on the bed, gasping.

The auxiliary unit could put him to sleep, but it didn't help him fight the nightmares, and he had just dreamed about the man he had killed during the day. The details of that person were so real, both the face and the wounds were lifelike, and Chiba really thought that the one standing in front of him was the one who had returned his soul.

With a sigh, Qian Yu grabbed the mineral water on the bedside table next to him, opened the bottle cap, and took a sip to calm his mood.

Can't forget...... I can't forget that man...... Even if the auxiliary unit can theoretically delete the memory, it is only the part stored in the auxiliary unit, and it is impossible to delete the part that the brain remembers.

In Chiba's ears, the words of the previous police captain echoed.

"If you have a nightmare, you can go to the elders of the family to accompany you, there is no shame."

"Is that what you mean......" Qian Yu shook his head with a wry smile. That's really ......."

Qian Yu never thought that killing someone with his own hands would have such a big psychological impact.

Turning his head to look in the direction of the porthole, Qian Yu sighed.

Irritable, extremely irritable, I don't know if it's because I can't let go of that dead man or for other reasons, Qianyu's mind is very confused now, and he can't calm down at all. Even if it is forcibly suppressed with an auxiliary unit, those emotions will come back to the mind after the suppression period is over.

Sighing again, Chiba got out of bed, and then went to the wine cabinet, wanting to get a bottle of wine to drink, but remembering that if he was caught drinking, he would be in trouble.

"Hmph......" After a wry smile, Qian Yu shook his head and walked to the door.

Let's go to another room and have a drink......

In this way, Qian Yu walked to the door and opened the door. The door slammed against the cushion in a subtle and complex sound.

“?” Chiba blinked, and then realized that it might be his own delusion, and walked out of the room.

The wine in the room on the left should still be there, so go drink that......

Walking with a shuffling pace, Qian Yu slowly walked to the door on the left-hand side, and then gently pushed the door open.

The moment he pushed the door open, Gray Plains, who had an embarrassed expression, and Qianyu, who didn't react at all, looked at each other.

"......" Qian Yu blinked, and then a surprised expression immediately appeared on his face. How do you ......"

"I just came out for a walk by chance," Gray Plain replied a few seconds later. "I didn't expect you to choose the same room as me."

"Oh......" The surprised expression faded, and Chiba glanced at the wine cabinet in the room. That one...... Can you have a drink with me? ”

"No problem." This time, Gray Plains replied crisply.

…………

Qian Yu took a sip of the wine in the glass, and then sighed.

He asked Gray Yuan Ai to have a drink with him, originally wanting to pour out his complicated emotions now, but he didn't know what to say when the words came to his lips.

What is his mood now?

Ordinary people may feel nauseous and panicked, but he didn't feel any nausea after killing someone, and the panic was limited to until Officer Twilight assured him that he would not be held accountable.

The guilt of depriving someone of their life? This Qianyu is even more gone, maybe he felt guilty about the time when he indirectly caused the two elders of the Kasugano family to have a car accident, but this time he didn't have any hesitation - after all, if he didn't kill him, then he might be the one who died.

As evidence of the above points, Chiba did not hesitate to kill another member of the Red Siamese Cat in the cab, cleanly.

So, where did my extremely abnormal emotions come from?

Gray Yuan sat across from her, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes as he looked at Qianyu's expression.

Of course, she didn't appear here because she came out for a walk by chance, but because of Chiha. She had seen the members of the organization feel unwell after the first killing, and she probably guessed that Chiba's personality belonged to the type that was more likely to have adverse reactions after the first killing. But even if she guessed that this would happen, she couldn't do anything about it - she wasn't the type to be very good at comforting people, and she didn't know how to calm Chiha's mind.

His eyes flickered towards the small wine bottle she had just taken out of the wine cabinet, and Gray Yuan's expression was a little complicated.

Wish...... He didn't lie to himself, hoping that he really wanted to help Tachibana......

Under Gray Yuan's tongue, a small white pill was lying quietly, exuding a somewhat strange faint fragrance.
