Chereads / The Kaleidoscope of Death / Chapter 24 - Chapter 24 - Resurrection

Chapter 24 - Chapter 24 - Resurrection

Zhong Cheng Jian's sudden outburst led the whole team to fall into a low mood.

The woman's corpse was chopped by Zhong Cheng Jian into a messy few pieces, blood and flesh remnants were all over the kitchen. 

He was also covered in blood, holding his face and sobbing uncontrollably, looking like he was about to collapse completely.

Everyone had very complicated expressions on their faces. Tang Yao Yao stood by the sink, with a gloomy look on her face as she tried to wash the blood off her body.

"Woo woo woo, what should I do?" Zhong Cheng Jian said, "I didn't mean to kill her, I was just momentarily furious..."

"Killed is killed," Zhang Xing Huo said. These words were said too many times, making his mood go bad too. "Anyway, this is not the real world, there is no police to catch you, what are you crying for."

"Yes, yes, this is not reality." After Zhang Xing Huo's reminder, Zhong Cheng Jian suddenly realized, a smile appeared on his face, "As long as I get out, no one will know I've killed someone, right?" 

Everyone was silent after hearing these words. Tang Yao Yao sneered mockingly. It was obvious that all the old people were thinking the same thing - indeed there would be no problem after going out, but the premise was being able to get out!

While everyone was talking, Lin Qiu Shi noticed two more figures staggering past the door. Although he didn't look too closely, he could confirm that the owners of the shadows were the remaining two of the triplets.

"What's next?" Tang Yao Yao looked at the messy kitchen and was a little headache. She said, "I don't want to go in and clean up the kitchen now."

"Wait and see," Ruan Nan Zhu said. "Maybe it'll be clean tomorrow."

Everyone took his words as a joke and no one responded.

That afternoon, everyone stayed in their own rooms, because the smell from the uncleaned kitchen was too terrible. Even sitting in the living room, one could smell it. So everyone dispersed and reluctantly avoided the facts.

However, when it was time for dinner, Lin Qiu Shi, who was sitting on the bed playing with his cell phone, smelled a scent of food. 

This scent was really tempting. After Lin Qiu Shi smelled it, saliva was involuntarily secreted in his mouth. "What's this smell?"

Ruan Nan Zhu, who was limply lying on the bed, said, "I'm starving to death. When I get back, I have to have a good meal." 

Lin Qiu Shi: "Go take a look?"

Ruan Nan Zhu: "Let's go."

In this world, no one had enjoyed a good meal. They didn't dare to pick up their chopsticks when they saw something delicious, eating dry bread every day. As Ruan Nan Zhu put it, people who ate were almost dried up.

When the two of them came out of the room, they saw that the others had also come out, apparently having smelled the scent too. 

"Who's cooking?" Xu Xiao Cheng swallowed, greedy and afraid at the same time. "It seems like there's someone in the kitchen..."

"Let's go see." Ruan Nan Zhu said.

A few people followed the smell back to the kitchen that should have been covered in blood and body parts. However, unexpectedly, the kitchen, which was originally a mess covered in limbs and flesh, was now completely renewed. On the stove there were two large pots, bubbling, giving off a rich aroma. 

Lin Qiu Shi stepped forward and walked to the pot. He saw a few pieces of meat stewing in the pot. He looked carefully at the floor again and found that the blood that should have been very difficult to remove was now gone without a trace, leaving only some residual black stains.

This scene reminded Lin Qiu Shi of what had happened after Zeng Ruo Guo died.

"It's gone." Lin Qiu Shi said. "The corpse is gone."

Xu Xiao Orange said, "It's only been a few hours, how could it be cleaned so thoroughly..."

"This is not the normal world to begin with," Ruan Nan Zhu said. "Don't think about it with conventional thinking."

While they were talking in the kitchen, the rest came over one after another. When Tang Yao Yao saw the clean kitchen, she breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to herself, saying fortunately the kitchen was clean, otherwise what would they eat in the next few days. She walked to Lin Qiu Shi's side and took a few more looks into the pot, "It smells so good."

Lin Qiu Shi smiled bitterly, "You don't dare eat it even though it smells good." 

Tang Yao Yao didn't say anything. He couldn't say that the girl leaning against him was a big man, could he? I don't know why Ruan Nan Zhu would be the best looking one among the girls who entered the door.

Just as they were persevering, persevering, everyone finally persevered until dawn. 

Zhang Xing Huo finally got out of the horror and smiled bitterly, saying he was so hungry and wanted to eat something.

"Only dry bread." Tang Yao Yao said. "You won't be interested in the stuff in the fridge, right?"

Zhang Xing Huo shook his head to indicate that he was not interested. The corpse bag of the previous girl was placed inside. No one could eat after thinking of this.

Originally someone had died today, and everyone thought the rules inside the door would not take effect. Unexpectedly, after the group had sat together for less than half an hour, they all unexpectedly fell asleep. 

It wasn't until the next day at dawn that everyone woke up. 

Lin Qiu Shi was the first to wake up. He opened his eyes to see everyone slumped on the sofa. Xu Xiao Cheng and Tang Yao Yao were leaning against each other, and Zhang Xing Huo was curled up into a ball. Ruan Nan Zhu's hand was around his neck, naturally hugging his whole person in his arms.

When Lin Qiu Shi moved, Ruan Nan Zhu woke up too. He opened his eyes in a daze and said, "Morning?"

"Yeah." Lin Qiu Shi said. "We all fell asleep, it's too dangerous..."

"What's dangerous about it," Ruan Nan Zhu said indifferently. "Dying in the coffin room didn't help either. Even if the King of Hell wants someone dead at three, he can't make it to five."

It did seem so. Lin Qiu Shi looked helpless. 

The conversation between the two also awakened the others from their dreams. After Xu Xiao Cheng woke up, her reaction was similar to Lin Qiu Shi's, both feeling that it was very dangerous to fall asleep on the sofa like this.

"Is there anything to eat?" Zhang Xing Huo started shouting that he was hungry as soon as he woke up yesterday. The first thing he did after waking up this time was shouting that he wanted to eat something. 

"I'll go take a look in the kitchen." Tang Yao Yao got up and went into the kitchen. After a while, her voice came from the kitchen, "Come take a look?"

Lin Qiu Shi felt her tone was a little strange. When he walked into the kitchen, he understood why her tone was so strange. 

Because on the cutting board in the kitchen, breakfast was neatly placed.

Light porridge, toasted bread, and round boiled eggs. If these foods were outside, they might be considered light. But for them who hadn't eaten well for days, it was already very tempting.

"Who made this?" Lin Qiu Shi asked.

"Don't know." Tang Yao Yao said, "When I came in, it was already done. Zhang Xing Huo, what are you rushing for—"

While they were talking, Zhang Xing Huo had already grabbed a bowl and started drinking the porridge. After drinking it all, he wiped his mouth and said, "I'm too hungry, don't want to wait."

"It should be fine, I'm hungry too." After observing for a while, Ruan Nan Zhu felt there was no problem. "Let's eat." 

He was basically the backbone of the team now. Since he said it was okay to eat, everyone picked up their chopsticks. 

Lin Qiu Shi was actually quite hungry too, and ate a large piece of bread and three bowls of porridge in one breath. But because he couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart, he kept away from the eggs. 

Ruan Nan Zhu was fearless. He swallowed three eggs in succession before wiping his mouth to indicate that he was full.

Finally relieving their hunger, everyone's faces showed satisfaction. 

"So full." Xu Xiao Cheng touched her belly. "So happy, haven't been this full for a long time. Who cooked?"

"Who cares who cooked." Tang Yao Yao said. "Full already th—" She was about to say full already then it's fine, but the words reached her lips and she forcibly swallowed them back. 

Because a figure slowly appeared in front of everyone, it was a woman wearing an apron with disheveled hair. There was a benevolent smile on her ordinary face. She noticed everyone's horrified eyes and turned her head to smile gently, "Why are you all looking at me like that? Eat, I made it specially for you, how is it, delicious?" 

Xu Xiao Cheng covered her mouth and rushed to the toilet. 

The atmosphere was horribly quiet as everyone cast their eyes on the woman - she was the mother of the triplets who was hacked to death by Zhong Cheng Jian yesterday. At this moment, the woman who should have died tragically was standing unharmed in front of them, benevolently asking them if the breakfast was delicious. 

No wonder Xu Xiao Cheng ran to the toilet to vomit again. 

"What's wrong, not delicious?" The woman didn't seem to understand why everyone was looking at her like that, and continued to ask.

"Delicious." Ruan Nan Zhu finally spoke up. "Thank you for the food." 

"That's good if you like it." The woman smiled sweetly. "The children at home are picky eaters, not like you, you love to eat everything." After she finished speaking, she turned around smilingly and left. Leaving behind a room full of people with expressions as if they had just eaten shit.

Lin Qiu Shi was fine, but Tang Yao Yao had already started swearing. Judging by her angry look, she was obviously disgusted by the stuff she had just eaten. 

Also right. Yesterday the woman was chopped into four or five pieces, but today she made you a table of delicious food. Put on anyone, I'm afraid I would feel that there was a big problem with this meal. This is a typical case of can't spit it out or swallow it down.

In the face of everyone's bad looks, the woman didn't care at all. She walked slowly into the kitchen and said, "What would you like for lunch? There's a lot more meat in the fridge..." She picked up a knife and fiddled with it lightly for a moment, "I can make delicious food for you."

The knife she was holding was the one Zhong Cheng Jian used to chop her into several pieces the other day, still stained with some black stains. 

No one spoke, slowly retreating from the kitchen. 

Xu Xiao Cheng also returned to the living room, vomiting made her face pale white, her whole body seemed to be about to faint. She panted heavily on the sofa, crying, "I really can't stand it anymore, I'm going to die..."

"You should be used to it long ago." Ruan Nan Zhu ruthlessly said, "How many times have you thrown up these days? More powerful than being pregnant." 

Xu Xiao Cheng whimpered and cried.

"How could she be alive?" Tang Yao Yao said. "So is she a human or a ghost now?" 

"Obviously not a human or a ghost," Ruan Nan Zhu said, "maybe she's just an indispensable NPC. Because of her importance, as long as she dies, she will respawn?" 

Tang Yao Yao: "Your statement is quite novel." 

"But there's a problem now." Ruan Nan Zhu said, "If she can respawn indefinitely, does she have any memories of her own death?"

Tang Yao Yao: "Shouldn't have it? If she did, how could she be so calm when she saw us?"

Ruan Nan Zhu: "Because the murderer is gone?" 

Tang Yao Yao pursed her lips. 

One of them was missing, and that was Zhong Cheng Jian, who killed the woman. Fortunately, Zhong Cheng Jian was not there when the woman came back to life, otherwise given his mental state at that time, it was very likely that he would have hacked the woman to death again with a knife.

"Looking at the bright side, at least someone is making breakfast for us now." Ruan Nan Zhu said very generously, "I don't want to eat dry bread anymore." 

"You dare to eat what she makes?" Tang Yao Yao disapproved of Ruan Nan Zhu's generosity. 

"Didn't you eat it today?" Ruan Nan Zhu mercilessly exposed this cruel fact, "And you ate more than me, and everyone ate."

Tang Yao Yao: "..."

Xu Xiao Cheng, who was sitting next to her, weakly raised her hand: "I didn't eat it, I threw up everything." 

Everyone: "..." Well you did great.
