"So," Jiang Li said, "We can't escape, we can only find clues and break the game."

"So any clues now?"

Jiang Li said thoughtfully: "Actually, from last night until now, I've always been concerned about something." He raised his hand to touch his face, and stretched out two fingers: "I was poked in the coffin last night. Twice in the face."

"Thinking about it now," Jiang Li thought, "I might have overlooked something. Now I have a preliminary idea."

"So..." Jiang Li raised her eyes, patted her legs and stood up, "Let's go and verify."

On the rooftop of the building, Anya's corpse in a blue shroud was lying in the coffin. Jiang Li stood in front of the coffin for a moment, lowered her head, slowly stretched out her hand, and pressed the corpse's chest tentatively.

Then, Jiang Li resolutely withdrew her hand, took a few steps back, and said to the corpse, "I'm offended." Then she turned her back to the coffin, and said to Sister Mei, "Sister Mei, please untie the clothes on her chest, and remove the clothes inside. Get something out."

Meijie responded, went over to unbutton the corpse's jacket, fumbled for a while, and took out something from the hidden inner pocket. Then, Meijie took the thing, carefully buttoned the corpse's jacket, and checked it by the way. After looking at the rest of the corpse, after finding nothing, Mei Jie tidied up the appearance for it.

Then, Meijie was a little excited and handed this thing to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li took it over and took a look. It was an old-fashioned small diary the size of a palm, with soft leather and hard edges.In the middle of the book's green cover is an orchid with two leaves.The overall color of this book has faded, with a strong trace of time.

Jiang Li smiled: "Sure enough, there is something."

After flipping through it a little, Jiang Li brought the small book back, then sat cross-legged on the bed, and patiently began to read from the first page.

This is the diary of a woman.

It was sunny on March 9.

After signing the contract with the factory, I moved into the new dormitory with my husband. I was very happy and finally had a stable job and a place to live.

In the future, we will work hard to make money and strive to own our own house.

It was sunny on March 9.

Today is the first day of work, and it is also a beautiful day. I am full of confidence in the future, full of motivation, work hard, work hard to make money, and come on.

It was sunny on March 9.

I worked eight hours today, and my waist is a little tired.My husband said that I was weak and asked me to do less work. I agreed, but I knew in my heart that the working hours were fixed, and there were tasks that had to be completed every day.And if you are found to be lazy, you will be deducted money.I don't want to be deducted because the wages after deducting the money will be very little.

I told myself that the reason for my backache is that my body is not used to this kind of work intensity. As long as I persist in working for a few days, I won’t be tired when I get used to it.Believe in yourself, I will work hard.

It was sunny on March 9.

Seven days later, I still feel backache.Somewhat unexpected, isn't the body so tired?But thinking about the amount of salary I can get every day, I think I can stick to it.

September 9, overcast.

My back hurts so much that I can't straighten up anymore, so my husband asked me to take half a day off.Hope to rest.

On September 9, sunny turned to heavy rain.

I went to work today and caught up with the rainy day again. I felt a little depressed because my waist did not rest, but it turned into a dull pain.

July 9, light rain.

I didn't bring an umbrella yesterday, and came back from the rain with my husband. When I woke up this morning, I found that I had a cold, a headache, and a sore throat.At noon, I went to the pharmacy to buy some pills.Eat once in the middle of the night.

September 9, overcast.

The factory received a batch of urgent orders and required employees to start working overtime.Give twice the salary and not allow time off.I worked for [-] hours today, my back hurts, my head hurts, my throat hurts, I took medicine for three times, but it didn't help.tired.

On September 9, I worked twelve hours.I had a headache for three days, and I took my temperature belatedly, only then did I know I had a fever.Nearly forty degrees.After taking antipyretics, the fever subsided a little.

On September 9, I went to ask for leave, but it was not approved because the fever subsided.After working for a day, at night, the fever started again.Continue to take antipyretics.I feel bad all over.tired.

On September 9, the burning always repeated.Press it down and it will burn again.A little anxious, chest tightness, heart palpitations, feeling uncomfortable all over.

September 9.Passed out at work yesterday.He was sent to the hospital for examination and got acute myocarditis.And lumbar muscle strain.

September 9.Unable to work and forced to resign.Savings are spent in the hospital and there is no money left.My husband hugged me and cried, regretting that he didn't care enough for me, and I also feel sorry for him. His work is more tiring than mine, and he sleeps as soon as he touches the bed every day. I don't blame him, it's my own negligence.

I regret that I worked so hard to make money.

I only now understand that money can be earned slowly, but if the body breaks down, it cannot be earned back.

On October 10, I kept taking medicine for treatment and started to go into debt.

On November 11, my husband dozed off at work, injured his arm, and suffered a comminuted fracture of the arm bone.Due to work-related injuries, the factory reimbursed.The doctor said at least half a year.Seeing her husband in pain, I dare not be impatient, for fear that I will get sick.

November 11.Think, both of them have no income, what should we do in the future?

On November 11, the family was completely out of money.My husband got up with arms folded, went out to borrow money, and only got ten yuan.

On November 11, the team leader of the factory said that my husband’s work-related injury will only be reimbursed for three months in the factory, and after two months, let us move out of the dormitory, because we are no longer factory employees in the factory, and we need to pay New employees make room.

After the team leader left, we fell into despair together with the last subsidy of 200 yuan from the factory.

In the future, how will I survive?

On November 11, my husband said he had a dream.I asked him what he dreamed about, and he said it was a turnaround.

Then, he went out in the middle of the night and brought back a thing held in silk cloth. He said that he was instructed by an expert. He didn't believe it at first, but he really got a god object. He said he would worship it.

I asked him where he got it from, and he said he picked it up.

I think my husband is crazy, the pressure of life has made him collapse, but I saw him so happy holding the silk cloth, I couldn't bear to stop him.

Let him have a spiritual sustenance, that's fine.

My husband specially set aside a corner in the dormitory and offered up the "sacred object" wrapped in silk. When I said what to offer to it, he said that the "sacred object" had instructions; I said I wanted to see what the "sacred object" was. What, he said he couldn't read it, and it didn't work after reading it.He also made me swear not to watch it, and I respected his opinion.

But when I saw the sacrifice he brought back, I broke down a bit.

He actually went to the street to buy a small animal, separated the body and head of the small animal, and made it a tribute.

It was a little rabbit with red eyes, and the white fur was wet with blood from the broken neck. It looked bloody and cruel.

I looked at the rabbit's eyes that were dying, and wanted to dissuade him, but before I finished speaking, I saw his injured arm lifted up easily, and his arm healed miraculously.

At the same time, the dead rabbit as a tribute disappeared out of thin air before my eyes.

He excitedly said it was a "miracle".

I was speechless.

He was very happy, but his arm healed too quickly to be exposed, so he continued to hang his arm and pretended not to heal.

The next day, he brought back two rabbits and killed them as offerings.

I asked him why there were more tributes, and he said that the "divine object" gave him a dream and updated him the requirements for tributes, so as to point out what he needs to offer.

Then he gambled with what little money he had left at home, went out and won twice as much.I saw his glowing eyes.

On the third day, the rabbits became three.

He went out again and won the money back.This time it is three times.

I looked at the increasing number of rabbits and had a bad feeling.One word comes to mind: greed.

Sure enough, on the fourth day, the rabbits became four.

He has won again.The amount of money quadrupled.

I looked at the numbers that snowballed quickly and felt a little scary.

On the fifth day, he bought out all the rabbits in the market, and he only brought back three.

He was a little apprehensive, so he quickly fell asleep, and the god entrusted him with a dream under his prayer.After getting up, he ran out for a trip, and before dark, he brought back two animals.

But this time, what he brought back were two dirty stray cats.

He killed the stray cat before dark.Enshrined with three rabbits.

Then, he had to go out to gamble while it was dark.

I pulled him hard, and tried to dissuade him for the first time. I wanted him to stop. I said that I was afraid if it continued like this, because I had clearly seen that the appetite of the "divine thing" was getting bigger and bigger.

Moreover, the animals it "eats" are also getting bigger.

My husband has a pocket full of money, and he said that if the money goes out today, if it is multiplied five times, it will be over ten thousand.Over [-] is a huge number. I used to work in a factory for a month and my salary was only [-].

When he said more than [-] yuan, I saw the undisguised greed in his eyes, my hand softened, and I couldn't hold him back.

I cried for a long time.I felt uncomfortable in my chest, so I went to the hospital to be put on a drip.

On the sixth day, when I came back from the infusion, I happened to see him who was about to go out early in the morning. He was still angry with me, so he didn't talk to me, and he didn't ask me where I was.

Just as I was about to open my mouth, he ran away as if he was afraid that I would stop him.

I was worried for a day, and when he came back in the afternoon, I found out that he had beaten a total of six stray cats and dogs.

This snowball generally increased the number of sacrificial offerings, which made me break down and begged him. I said I don't want money, and hoped that he would stop.But he took the money and went out to gamble again.I no longer see reason in his eyes.

I thought all night about how I could stop him.

This morning was the seventh day since he brought back the "divine object".

I didn't sleep all night and my eyes were bloodshot.He woke up from his sleep and lay in a daze on the bed for a while. Then, without looking at me, he turned his back to me and said to me sullenly: You don't need to persuade me anymore. Just sacrifice one more thing.After that, we can take the savings, leave the city, go back to our hometown to buy a house, and live a good life.

Then, I saw him standing up, stooping to pick up the rope that tied the cat and dog yesterday.We are about to go outside.

I stopped him nervously: "Is it really the last time?" I asked him this sentence, and I heard the trembling in my voice.

He didn't look back, just nodded lightly, and left without looking back.But I felt the tension in his body and the tension in his emotions.

I don't think he's in the right shape.

I thought for a while, and suddenly remembered what he said before he left.He said to sacrifice "one more" thing.Why one piece?According to the law of the previous six days, shouldn't there be seven animals today?Why did it become one thing?
