Devil's Playground

"No, if I have to make a metaphor, I should be his Satan." Joe smiled, with a little self-deprecation in his tone, "After the operation was successful, Conch was sent to a so-called noble high school by her adoptive parents. It was to drive him out of the house, to keep him out of the way, and to take advantage of the closed management there to take care of him. But they didn't notice that under their torture, Conch's spirit had gone wrong, and that kind of School is not a place where people can be raised...Finally, things are turned against each other, the loyal and kind-hearted boy disappeared, and a little devil who only knew how to fight a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye was reborn in blood."

"Then he was sent to the mental hospital where you are?" Lin Yu asked with interest.

"Conch was already 18 years old at the time, and based on the number of people he killed, he must have been sentenced to death. But once he died, his adoptive parents had to find matching bone marrow for their children. In order to save the trouble of re-finding , Conch’s adoptive parents found someone to give him a psychiatric evaluation, and transferred him from prison to a mental hospital.” Joe raised the corners of his mouth, and a glint of coldness flashed in his eyes, “When Conch was admitted to the hospital, I happened to hear his adoptive Parents complained, saying that it would be better to send him to a mental hospital from the very beginning, which would not only avoid these troubles now, but also save the cost of his education."

"Where are his biological parents?" Lin Yu interjected suspiciously, "I remember this incident was a big one, and the news about him was overwhelming at that time. Could it be that his parents didn't see it, or didn't think of the protagonist on it? Is it their son?"

"Conch didn't want to talk about it, and they didn't come to visit." Joe shrugged, "I've seen Conch call them, but they got hung up after a few words, and then... he squatted on the ground and cried for a whole day. Half an hour."

"His parents...should have given up on him." Yang Jin said subconsciously, "After all, he is not their only son, and he has already been adopted into someone else's family."

Lin Yu glanced at Yang Jin suspiciously, seeing that he seemed to want to say something more, he immediately changed his voice and interrupted: "Let's not stop talking about parents. Compared with these, I want to know what Qiao is. How to be Satan's - tell me, what did you do?"

"I taught him to kill." Joe smiled slightly, "and then, in front of him, separated his adoptive parents and their children—not the spatial separation of wives and children, but the one scattered all over the place." kind of division."

"Bad taste." Lin Yu pouted.

Yang Jin was stunned for a moment before he understood what Qiao meant, and immediately remembered how Qiao dismantled the living dead into pieces in the filthy land. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he deeply agreed with Lin Yu's evaluation.

"It's just an eye for an eye." Qiao replied indifferently, "Conch's performance is also very good, at least it didn't do anything stupid to plead for those scumbags."

"But there is still something wrong?" Lin Yu crossed his fingers and put them on his chest, "Conch was sent to the mental hospital at the age of 18, and the time of death was also 18 years old. From one point of view, the time you spend together is actually very good. Short. In other words, you were killed by the police shortly after you killed Conch’s adoptive parents, and Conch obviously believed that your death was his responsibility, otherwise you wouldn’t have gone to a place like the police station, in a kind of almost To avenge you in courting death."

"I was careless." Qiao sighed, "I brought an extra novice with me, but I only erased my own traces. I didn't expect that the conch would also leave a flaw, and it didn't take long for me to be tracked down by the police. Mental hospital."

"Then, you are left with only two choices: either stand up and give the police a murderer; or let the police catch the conch, and then follow the clues to find you out." Lin Yu pointed out the situation Qiao was facing at that time. , "Obviously, you chose the former."

"But Conch didn't understand what I expected of him, and he didn't even cherish the freedom I had won for him with my life." Joe shook his head helplessly, "However, it's also my fault, killers shouldn't exist in the first place. What kind of inheritance, if I trap myself, it's my own fault."

"You don't need to underestimate yourself, anyway, the serial killer business itself is killing yourself - either killing others or killing yourself... Uh, don't you think so?" Lin Yu noticed Qiao's disapproval, and raised his eyebrows in surprise. Eyebrow, "Do you think you are righteous?"

"Before entering this game field, everyone I killed was unforgivable." Joe said indifferently, "It's just that the law can't sanction them, but some of them can manipulate the law."

Lin Yu stared blankly at Joe, raised his hand after a while, and rubbed his temples with a troubled face, "Maybe I should reconsider working with you, Joe."

"I know what you're worried about, but I think it's a bit redundant." Joe said calmly. "In this world, everyone is guilty. You don't have to worry about who I won't do."

"Only in the E area..."

"No, although the selection criteria in other districts are different from those in District E, the final result is the same." Qiao said first, "Although the administrators in the other three districts are not as picky as Mr. E, from another perspective, They are not as "passionate" like Mr. E, who will teach toys step by step, and give them opportunities from left to right. In terms of the cruelty of the playground, the other three areas are even worse than E area. Those who stood out from those three districts and entered the inner city alive all had lives in their hands."

"But I'm worried—you can do the same to me." Lin Yu stared at Joe intently.

"At least not before leaving here." Joe said with certainty, "Here, normal moral standards no longer apply. It would be a foolish thing to stick to the principles of the past, and I have only one goal now—to leave."

"I hope Conch can understand current affairs like you." Lin Yu stood up, "I'm done eating, good night."

Yang Jin and Lin Yu left the restaurant together and returned to their own place - the first floor.

This is indeed their territory. Lin Yu set up real-name locks in all the other rooms except the living room. Even if Joe wants to come in, he has to ring the doorbell first, and wait for Lin Yu or Yang Jin to let him go.

Although the house was custom-made by Joe, the transaction records show the names of the five of them, using an equal contract. Except for Lily's maid Lily, everyone else has the same right to use the house. The power to throw someone out.But they are all adults, and they all need a little privacy of their own, especially with the relationship between Yang Jin and Lin Yu, Conch and Lili's personalities, it is easy to cause a farce of being caught in bed at a critical moment.Lin Yu can be regarded as planning ahead, avoiding some embarrassing troubles in advance.

"Do you believe what Qiao said?" Yang Jin followed Lin Yu into the living room and asked.

There are not many rooms on the first floor. Except for the large living room connected to the entrance hall and the bathroom that can only be used for fixed purposes, Yang Jin can only arrange two bedrooms and a living room, and reserve an empty room for Lin Yu as a miscellaneous Between things.One of the bedrooms and the living room are set together. Since he will spend most of his time with Lin Yu, Yang Jin gave this place to Lin Yu and arranged his bedroom on the opposite side of the stairwell, which is the worst. s position.

"What do you mean? About the conch, or his last promise?" Lin Yu sat down on the sofa that Yang Jing just bought, and touched the leather surface of the sofa, "How many survival points did you spend to decorate the room?"

"More than 2000, just one meal for Lily."

"She doesn't eat that much at every meal."

"I don't decorate the house every day." Yang Jin twitched his lips and sat down opposite Lin Yu, "Don't interrupt, I'm telling you the truth, it's not the conch, but Joe."

"Are you scared by our conversation?" Lin Yu chuckled, "Don't worry, you are not his food, you can't be on his cutting board. However, you have to get used to it, because no matter Joe, or me, or Lily, or even Joe Conchs called good boys are all the same kind of people in their bones—abnormal people, so don’t look at us with normal eyes, and don’t worry about us with normal mentality. Also, remember, this is not a normal world."

"So, who do you prefer to be with? A normal person like me, or someone like Joe?" Yang Jin stared into Lin Yu's eyes and asked word by word.

Lin Yu was taken aback, and looked suspiciously at Yang Jin, "Why do I feel...you seem to be jealous?"

"Perhaps." Yang Jin shrugged without denying it.

Lin Yu became more and more stunned, "You don't think there is anything between me and Joe, do you?"

"No." Yang Jin replied indifferently, "You two are so tense that you almost draw lightning in the middle. I won't think about that even if I'm bored."

"Then what are you awkward about now?" Lin Yu frowned and looked at Yang Jin suspiciously.

Yang Jin sighed, got up and walked in front of Lin Yu, stretched out his hands, smoothed Lin Yu's eyebrows, and then held his face, "Honey, I'm afraid... I love you more than I thought."

"Huh?" Lin Yu was completely stunned, not understanding why Yang Jin suddenly said such a sentence.

But Yang Jin quickly said again: "But what worries me the most is that I haven't even figured out why I love you..."

"Face." Lin Yu's eyes turned cold, then he raised his eyebrows and said, "If you didn't have this face, you would definitely not even look at me more."

Yang Jin choked for a moment, but immediately replied: "That's based on 'your' face, if someone else has a face exactly like yours, I'll just take a look at it, and I definitely won't want to sleep with him, I don't even want to... love him."

"Is it alright if we don't mention the word 'love'?" Lin Yu's mouth twitched visibly, "It's so sensual, it gives me goosebumps."

"But I just want to love you now." Yang Jin lowered his head and buried his face in Lin Yu's neck, "What should I do?"

"Cold salad." Lin Yu replied indifferently.

"Don't be so heartless." Yang Jin laughed sullenly a few times, "Honey, baby, sweetheart..."

"Shut up!" Lin Yu interrupted unbearably, "What are you playing?"

"Nothing." Yang Jin raised his head and stared at Lin Yu's pretty face, "I just... want you to love me, and only me."

"Your request is too high." Lin Yu replied with downcast eyes.

"Even if I love you first?" Yang Jin gently caressed Lin Yu's lips, as if he was ready to cover them at any time, lest he say something he didn't want to hear.

"I... um..."

As soon as Lin Yu opened his mouth, Yang Jin blocked his lips and swallowed all his unspoken words with a passionate kiss.

After a while, Yang Jin let go of Lin Yu and continued, "Give me a chance."

"I gave it to you." Lin Yu looked directly into Yang Jin's eyes, and was not shaken by a kiss, "More than once."

"But not here." Yang Jin knew that Lin Yu was not looking for reasons to shirk, on earth, in that normal world, Lin Yu did give him a chance to choose, but he... didn't choose Lin Yu.

Lin Yu took a deep breath, turned his head and said, "I don't want to be disappointed anymore."

"No." Yang Jin turned his face back, "I know what it's like to lose you, so I won't do the same stupid thing again, if I do, you will kill me. "

"I really will." Lin Yu said seriously.

"I know." Yang Jin lightly kissed Lin Yu's lips, "So you should also know that I'm not joking."

"...don't regret it."

"Will you give me a chance to regret it?"

Yang Jin smiled slightly, and picked Lin Yu up from the sofa.
