  ”A child that can’t be killed no matter what?” Chen Ge tilted his head, his gaze looking through the gray canopy to the miserable white sky.

  Even if he was willing to be friends with that child, that child still didn’t have any friends because he could be that child.

  ”I don’t believe that there could be such a child in the world, if he really existed, I would be friends with him.” Chen Ge replied very definitely, he finished and then looked at the girl, “By the way, how do you know that he can’t be killed no matter what?”

  As Chen Ge finished asking this question, a very long gap appeared on the transparent fish tank, and the water in the tank began to flow out along the gap.

  Notably, the transparent water inside the fish tank turned a murky light gray color once it flowed out of the slit.

  The water became less and less, and the blood-red goldfish struggled more and more as wounds began to appear on its body, and the water inside the fish tank was slowly dyed red.

  ”I killed him.” The girl’s voice had completely changed, “I wanted to be him, but when I woke up from my sleep, he was back.”

  ”Then do you know how he did it?” Chen Ge’s heart was beating fast, but his consciousness became blurred, as if he was forgetting something very important, and the most dangerous thing was that he himself didn’t know what he was forgetting.

  ”Yeah ……,” the girl turned her head, her face looking towards Chen Ge, at this moment her features were completely blurred and a new face was slowly emerging, “How did he do it?”

  Cold light shone on their bodies as the two stood left and right right right at the exit of the woods, they were able to see the building in the distance bleeding.

  The left half of the building corresponding to the girl was crawling with thin black threads that emanated foreboding, while the right half of the building corresponding to Chen Ge was about to be dyed red with blood, with cracks everywhere.

  Fang Yu’s world behind the door was already almost as good as the real world behind the door, but it still couldn’t stand up to the tossing and turning of nearly a dozen red coats.

  Just after entering the door, when Chen Ge realized that this world was different from the other Behind the Door worlds, he immediately told all of his employees to get their hands dirty.

  He already knew about Fang Yu’s past, so there was no need for him to take his time exploring, and it turned out that he had gambled right.

  ”You are the host that the Underworld Fetus left behind this door, aren’t you?”

  Early on, when Chen Ge saw the square fish, he began to suspect.

  If the Fang Fish in the world behind the door really had completely stopped resisting, like this girl had shown, then the Fang Fish outside the door simply couldn’t have tattooed his name all over his body, much less go to that park and wait every day.

  The real Fang Fish didn’t give up.

  In order to further verify his guess, he first tried with Zhang Yi, the girl didn’t have any reaction, on the contrary, the blood red goldfish in the fish tank kept swimming.

  Further on Chen Ge followed his own guesses and kept asking questions, finally determining that the girl in front of him was not Fang Yu.

  In Fang Yu’s amnesia world, apart from herself, the only “person” who could still speak and have memories was a ghost tire.

  The girl probably already knew that she had been seen through, but she didn’t care.

  ”What makes you so sure I’m not an Underworld Fetus?”

  ”Although this post-gate world is more solid than the previous post-gate worlds, it’s still too fragile for a Fierce God, just like you can’t fit a whale into a household fish tank.” Chen Ge didn’t think that the Underworld would hide here even before he entered the world of the square fish, what Zhang Yi had once said to him had helped him a lot, in addition, if he was the Underworld, he would definitely hide himself in an ordinary person who didn’t have too many physical defects.

  The other eight people were all fronts, even if the world behind the door was destroyed it would only be a partial loss of ability, as long as it was delayed until the actual descent, the situation would be directly reversed.

  The girl’s original features were erased, and a baby’s face slowly emerged.

  His eyes were closed tightly, and blood was seeping out of the corners of his mouth, ears, and nose, but he didn’t cry or make any noise, as if he didn’t feel any pain.

  Unlike the “fetuses” of other worlds behind the door, this “fetus” possessed its own consciousness, and did not act aggressively after its body was discovered, and even its coat did not turn red.

  She and Chen Ge stood at the exit of the forest, quietly looking at the city, which was painted with black and red colors.

  Gradually the blood red took over, the black threads representing the curse were suppressed, and the grayish-white city was slashed with a blood-red wound, as if the entire city was bleeding.

  Nearly ten red coats exploded with all their might, instantly suppressing the curse hidden behind the door, but looking at what was in front of him, Chen Ge did not have any smile on his face.

  Counting the door that Jia Ming and Bei Ye had entered, this was only the fourth door, and it already required the simultaneous efforts of nearly ten Redcoats to suppress it.

  If they entered the fifth door, I’m afraid that it would take the full force of all the Redcoats to break the situation.

  According to this projection, the sixth sector door would not necessarily guarantee safety even with all the red clothes.

  The grayish-white city was covered in the color of blood, Chen Ge did not use any schemes, it was the purest use of violence, crushing it with nearly ten Redcoats.

  This was the simplest, yet effective, and safest approach.

  A blood-red figure appeared, and a large number of mirrors on the streets were crushed, and the gray-white city was dyed red.

  ”That was close, if I could have delayed it just a little longer, I could have left you here forever.” The girl with the baby face turned to look at Chen Ge, “I can’t kill you, but I can make you forget yourself and do what they did to you all over again.”

  Both sides were stalling for time, Chen Ge was waiting for the red-clothed employees to break through the restraints imposed on them by the world behind the door, while the girl knew something very secret and wanted to use another method to “kill” Chen Ge.

  ”The things they did to me? Who are they?” Chen Ge pursued.

  ”Why do you have to go looking for them? You already have what I seek, why do you have to give it up?” The girl’s body gradually blurred, as if it was slowly losing its color and about to become one with the world: “Isn’t it good to stay where you are and let me be you?”

  ”The people I seek? Is it my parents?” Chen Ge’s tone became urgent.

  Hearing the word parents, the baby’s expression changed, Chen Ge seemed to have spoken to the baby’s most painful point, he did not answer Chen Ge’s question anymore and fiercely reached out and grabbed the goldfish in the middle of the fishbowl, “You are lucky to have entered this most dangerous door when I was still not fully awake. But those facts that are already destined, you can never change them.”

  ”Fang fish!” Chen Ge took out a skull-crushing hammer and smashed it at the girl, whose hand touched the water, but the goldfish dodged through her five fingers.

  The transparent glass fish tank fell to the ground, and the baby’s face was twisted, her body scattering along with the water splashing down from the tank.

  ”I’ll wait for you behind the door, Chen Ge.”

  The girl’s body, the splash of water, and the gray-white world merged and disappeared, leaving only a blood-red goldfish and a very ordinary glass marble on the ground.

  Chen Ge first placed the goldfish on a fragment of a larger fish tank where a bit of murky water still remained.

  Then he put his hand towards the very ordinary marble, and the moment his fingertips touched the marble, an unfamiliar memory appeared in his mind.

  On the third floor of the haunted house at midnight, a single bed was set up in the cozy cabin, and there was a small handmade orange lamp on the bedside table.

  The pale light shone on the bed, and while the young child was already asleep, his shadow gingerly stepped out of the bed and took out the toys that were laid out around the house.

  The skinny shadow sat in the middle of the toys and he played alone for a long time until midnight zero hour came and he suddenly heard someone calling out a certain name.

  Shadow looked back at the sleeping child in the bed and slipped out of the room himself.
