Chapter 527 The Story of Guo Shengye
Continuing to move forward, Wen Wen found a room full of mirrors in front of him.
The rooms in other squares look like they were randomly cut out from the real world. They will stop abruptly on a certain line and change to another style.
But this room seems to have been carefully carved, more in line with the style of this huge maze.
Every mirror in the room is like a movie screen, playing different scenes. The protagonists of these scenes are Mirror Nightmare and Guo Shengye respectively.
Wen Wen raised his eyebrows and said to himself: "What is Mirror Nightmare doing? Do you want to tell their tragic experiences and then influence me?"
But Wen Wen still walked in, ready to see what Mirror Nightmare was up to.
To Wen Wen's surprise, Jing Ni was sitting in the middle of the room. There was a chair opposite him, but Wen Wen did not sit on it.
"In your words, I come from the other world. I did something in the other world hundreds of years ago and was sealed in a mirror."
"Later, I was brought into this world by a monster. After many twists and turns, I finally ended up at the home of Guo Shengye, who was still a child."
Now that Mirror Nightmare has entered story-telling mode, Wen Wen does not intend to interrupt him. Knowing more about them will help Wen Wen win them down.
"He is really a very miserable man. He has loved drawing comics since he was a child, but he was not welcomed by his family. He did not go to college after graduating from high school. He did not want to find a job and insisted on drawing comics, but he was kicked out of the house because of this.
"
"Fortunately, he has a girlfriend who supports him and gives him a safe haven to continue. With his girlfriend working and Guo Shengye doing odd jobs, the two of them can barely survive."
"He drew comics with great intensity and submitted them to different editors, but he always got the same reply."
"One day, he finally got the approval of an editor. After he submitted the manuscript, the editor died in a car accident. The hope he finally got came to an end in vain."
"The miserable Guo Shengye came to a bar to drink away his sorrows, but when he was drunk, he found his girlfriend drinking with him in the bar..."
Wen Wen, who was listening to the show, couldn't help but sneered. This guy was a bit unlucky. He didn't know how to evaluate it.
"That night, Guo Shengye said some outrageous things. When he sobered up after drinking, he went to the bar to inquire and learned that his girlfriend was just accompanying the drink and did not do anything extra."
"At that time, Guo Shengye realized that his girlfriend might have to earn more money in order to continue his dream."
"When he went to find his girlfriend to apologize, he found that his girlfriend had already hanged herself and her body had become cold..."
"Since then, Guo Shengye has changed... He began to deviate from his ideals and began to torture himself."
Every time Mirror Nightmare said something, a corresponding picture would flash on the mirror, allowing Wen Wen to feel Guo Shengye's despair to the greatest extent.
Wen Wen won't comment on other people's dreams, but Guo Shengye's approach during the whole process is that persistence is still the same thing.
As for the rest, he has not been a good son or a good boyfriend.
Moreover, he has now started to draw notebooks, and he draws notebooks with human souls, which shows that he has already deviated from his dream.
What he wants now is just to have his works recognized by others, which is a kind of pathological vanity.
"The entire first half of his life, I was with him in the mirror, and he always knew of my existence."
"I understand his dreams and pursuits, and he understands my loneliness and pain that have been sealed for hundreds of years."
"So the two of us agreed to support each other and go on. I instructed him to use human blood and other things to contaminate my sealed mirror. I broke free from the mirror and signed a contract with him..."
Wen Wen felt a little nervous when he heard it, so he stretched out his hand to stop it and said: "Pause, I heard something is wrong with this story."
Mirror Nightmare asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
"How does it sound to me that you two got along day and night, secretly fell in love, and then made a private commitment for life?"
Wen Wen felt a little nauseous when he thought of the two Guo Shengye entangled together.
But just thinking about it, that image still lingers.
"If you want to say that...there's no problem." Jing Ni said with a blush.
Wen Wen covered his mouth to prevent his expression from being too ferocious: "Inside and outside the mirror, there are people and monsters, men and male monsters... You guys are playing too hard."
It seems that the death of his girlfriend really hit Guo Shengye hard enough to twist him into this state.
"What did you say? This is my true identity."
Jingmeng rolled her eyes at Wen Wen, and then her body transformed like mercury, turning into a silver-haired woman who looked pretty good.
"Oh, you turn out to be a woman...then this is very boring."
Wen Wen's expression returned to normal, and he looked at Jingma with a pair of dead fish eyes and said: "It seems that you want to fill the vacancy of Guo Shengye's girlfriend, but as a female monster, you support him using a woman's soul to draw a book... This is really frustrating.
It's hard for me to understand."
Jingmeng snorted coldly and did not explain Wen Wen.
Wen Wen sighed. Monsters are monsters after all. She may have sympathy or even love for a certain human being.
But it is simply impossible for her to treat other human beings as equal beings.
After feeling a little emotional, Wen Wen rubbed his hair manically: "No, no, I'm here to fight monsters, why did it become the plot of a bloody prime-time drama at 8pm?"
"Tell me what the purpose of this is. If you don't understand it, I'll just do it."
Mirror Nightmare stood up, and all the images in the mirrors disappeared.
"You are a powerful human being. If we continue to fight, we may both lose. Shengye doesn't want to see this fight continue, so I can give you what you want."
"We can return the souls of those girls to you."
"And Sheng Ye and I will live in other cities. I can also promise you that I will not help Sheng Ye rob girls' souls in the future. I will help him realize his dream through legitimate channels..."
"As long as your pursuit of us stops here."
Wen Wen tilted his head, looked at Mirror Nightmare's expression seriously, then took a few steps back, making a calculation in his mind.
If Mirror Nightmare can offer such conditions, it can be said that he has already given in.
Wen Wen's gradual approach made her feel that failure was imminent. Although she still had trump cards, she did not have the confidence to defeat Wen Wen.
Anyone else would have agreed to this condition.
A powerful and weird monster is willing to stop hurting humans and can resolve the incident without engaging in a life-and-death struggle. This is the best outcome.
But is Wen Wen’s purpose to make Mirror Nightmare stop doing evil?
