Someone is forcing Bai Liu to do to Tavel what those investors and the factory manager did to him, and then forcing him to become the person he should have been.

Bai Liu can't even do it, but he is not helpless, he just needs to gamble.

But this method is not allowed by Tavel.

The moment Bai Liu realized this method, he quickly lowered his head.

Tavel knew him too well, it was difficult for Bai Liu to hide his tricks in front of this guy, so he could only lower his eyebrows and pretend to be thinking, and then gave the answer: "... the antidote, I have no other choice, I have already made a deal with him Someone else made a deal."

"That only needs my blood." Tavel stretched out his hand, and a thorny, tiny, blood ganoderma vine pierced through the blue blood vessels under his white wrist, and the bright red blood wrapped around his wrist in an instant The sides slope down.

The vines greedily surrounded the path where the blood flowed and began to grow wantonly. The bundles spread inwards on Tavel's arm, and the sharp black thorns pierced the porcelain-like snow-white skin. Soon more blood flowed from the hole-shaped wound. There was a surge in the water.

Tavel's face paled rapidly with the entanglement of the vines, and the rhythm of breathing also began to slow down due to excessive blood loss, blood dripped continuously from the fingertips he hugged the white willow.

"I... need to make a container for blood." Tavier said with half-closed eyelids, "It's like a baptismal pool."

Bai Liu looked around the room, and finally settled on a glass display cabinet that opened upwards and was placed horizontally.

Tavel consciously laid down the replacement glass cabinet prepared by the factory workers for his heart—this cabinet was brought in just after Bai Liu and the others broke in. It was still intact, undamaged, and about the same height as Tavel , just enough for him to lie down.

The blood that infiltrated silently quickly soaked the backs of Tavel's hands placed on both sides of the glass cabinet.

——This scene is exactly the same as when Scheta was lying in the baptismal pool in the church.

Bai Liu subconsciously turned her face away and stood up, facing the scene with her back.

His breathing speeded up involuntarily, his hands kept letting go and gathering, until he approached Tavel at close range, the aroma caused his mental value to drop slowly, until now, at this moment, he finally reached the critical point of hallucinations point.

Many mixed voices began to appear in his mind:

【—He is in pain! Can't you see he's in pain! Are you a freak! Don't you have feelings! stop now! 】

[Do you know how much pain he has! Why are you torturing him! Does a person like you have the most important person! 】

[Do you have no way to empathize with others? 】

[He is really a monster, right? 】

【Bai Liu, your mental state is not right, go see a heart doctor...】

[...Severe traumatic stress syndrome, when encountering scar scenes, subconsciously repeat the stereotyped actions at that time...]

【Bai Liu, why are you afraid of water? You are not afraid of water at all. You are afraid of seeing a corpse in the water. Do you remember who he is? ! 】

【Really Scheta has already died for you! 】

[...some ptsd patients who are not hurt by themselves, but have strong empathy, constantly fantasize about the original scene, simulating themselves to take the hurt on behalf of that person to reduce their guilt...]

【If only I was the one who was tortured, I was the one who was hurt, and I was the one who died... If only I could replace Su Chao...】

Everything started to become chaotic in Bai Liu's mind.

Looking through the narrow gap behind the curtain, Scheta, who was constantly submerged in the baptismal pool, had blood dripping from the hair hanging on both sides of his face.

From the beginning to the end, Bai Liu's original childhood fantasies have always been Scheta - the one who was called a monster by the children, the one who was rejected by the teacher and punished badly, the one who was baptized in the church and confinement, and the one who was baptized again and again. Those who drowned in the baptismal pool for the first time to wash, and those who had no way to escape from the orphanage were all Scheta.

It's not Bai Liu, it's not Bai Liu, it's Xieta.

And in Bai Liu's lost old memory, why was the person who experienced these things replaced by himself?

Bai Liu's breathing became rapid, and a tingling sensation began to appear on his skin, as if some vine had drilled through it.

He clutched his neck, and the severe pain of vines piercing the blood vessels in his neck made him frown uncontrollably—but there was nothing there.

Tavel's neck was pierced with a thick finger vine, his breathing gradually weakened, his long hair was suspended in the blood, and entangled with the vine.

Bai Liu began to stand unsteadily, he felt as if every bone in him was constantly protruding spikes, and every time he took a breath, he felt severe pain because of the muscle contraction being cut apart, which made him unable to stand stably when he was walking. Kneeling dizzily.

But in fact, there is nothing in Bai Liu's body, it's just an illusion, not too much of an illusion.

These hallucinations created by Bai Liu's subconscious mind are making him and Tavel experience the same thing.

Tavel's voice came from behind him: "Are you leaving?"

"What are you going to do?"

Tavel's peaceful voice calmed Bai Liu down.

Holding on to the crumbling cooling pipe, Bai Liu took two deep breaths, so that his muddy brain could maintain some basic thinking, and then replied Tavel: "Go and tell the people outside, I found the [antidote]."

"Lie." Tavel said, "Bai Liu, you never dare to face me when you lie."

His tone was as gentle as if he saw Bai Liu for the first time in the church: "Will you tell me, what are you going to do after you leave me?"

——[Would you like to read this book with me? 】

Bai Liu's body seemed to be manipulated by some kind of consciousness that he didn't know, he was like a malfunctioning robot, he turned around in a daze, and saw Tavel sitting up in the pool of blood.

—— covered with thorns, but still focused, he took a good look at him, his body was covered with pinprick wounds, and he had a very shallow smile on his face.

Bai Liu's pupils contracted slightly and then dilated.

...The body of Sieta beside the pond was full of pinholes, and Bai Liu, who was kneeling next to him and hadn't done CPR for an unknown amount of time, was exhausted.

Bai Liu's eyes collapsed on the spot in a daze, and then he leaned close to the corpse, clenched his hands into fists against Xieta's heartless chest, opened and closed gently, and murmured softly, imitating the sound of a heartbeat:

"Boom-boom-boom-boom-"

"Isn't your heart beating faster? Why don't you even jump now..."

"Dance for me..."

The words of that crappy heart doctor who Bai Liu went to see a few times because it was free rang in his ears intermittently:

【...From your friend's words, you have severe ptsd, the type of witnessing scars, and you need self-regulation...】

[However, your personality is too extreme. If you encounter a similar scene next time, you should react very aggressively—you should do your best to prevent similar things from happening again in front of you, and it is even possible to replace your opponent with yourself. ...]

"What are you going to do, Bai Liu?" Tavel raised his silver-blue eyes and looked at him.

Bai Liu's fingers hanging by her side twitched, and summoned a card—the ace of hearts.

He opened his mouth, and finally said: "I'm going to find another mirror."

[Liu Jiayi, can this ace of hearts completely transform this person into another person? Including blood or something? 】

【Why do you ask this? If you can find the existence of the person whose heart is completely another person, close to the opponent, the basic transformation of blood components can be done with this skill card. 】

[What about these features? Like blood regeneration speed and tolerance to death? 】

[= = What the hell is this? Who are you going to transform into? Who is the most important person in his heart like this? Blood regeneration, death tolerance, it sounds—]

【——It's like a monster. 】

"Are you looking for a mirror?" Tavel asked.

"Let me see myself." Bai Liu said.

【Yeah, the most important person in who's heart is this kind of weirdo~】

[Wow, Bai Liu, the expression on your face is so disgusting, you laughed so strangely just now! 】

"Why do you want to see yourself?" Tavel asked.

Bai Liu lowered his neck, and he lowered his head to calmly look at himself in the reflection of the puddles on the ground. The waves of roses were still dazzingly reflected in his pupils just like the surface of the pools and lakes in summer, and there was no emotion on his face.

It remained silent for a long time, and at the same time, the heart in the center of the ace of hearts poker in his hand turned rapidly.

The person in Taoxin's heart quickly changed from Su Wei to another person.

Bai Liu's hair grew longer, her limbs became as powerful and perfect as sculptures, her body was covered with pinholes, her neck was punctured with thorns, her whole body was bathed in blood, her long silver-blue eyelashes drooped down, and the light pink rose liquid mixed with blood From his jaw, eyelashes dripping, curly hair coiled at the back of his waist.

"Because this time... I will become that tortured monster." Bai Liu said.
