Chapter 52 Section 37

The news of the discovery of the body was seen on television the next day, Saturday night. That night, I borrowed two videotapes of foreign movies from the video store. They were both comedies that I used to laugh out loud, but now I don’t understand what’s so funny. to the void.I still laughed, laughing aloud to myself when I saw the scenes that should be laughed, which was more comical and empty than the actors in the picture.Thirty minutes into watching it, I started to loathe myself so intensely that I stopped the tape.Just as I was about to throw the remote control at the screen, the news was interrupted on the TV.

"At noon today, in the deep mountains of Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture, a dismembered body that looked like a woman was found..." My hand holding the remote stopped. The nonchalant announcer said that the person who found the body was a local near the scene. He went to the mountains every few days and saw traces of cars breaking into the woods. mound of earth, beneath which the bodies were dug up.There was also a simple map showing the location on the TV screen, which was undoubtedly where I buried Naoko. The identity of the corpse has not yet been identified, but the date of death has been confirmed, and identification is only a matter of time.I felt that it came a little too soon, but I was not disappointed, and even felt a little relieved - I didn't have to worry about the whereabouts of the corpse anymore.

Pure curiosity popped up: what would Tang Yuan and the others think?They suspect that I killed Naoko Tachibana, but if the body is not found, it is just imagination, and now they have to take measures, if they let go, the police will definitely find me. I laughed secretly, and things became more interesting. The world's first brain transplant patient killed someone because his head went crazy-wouldn't the media flock to it if they found out?I want to see how Tang Yuan and the others end up. At noon on Monday, someone called me in the workshop.During working hours, there are no special circumstances to transfer calls. The other party seems to say that there is something urgent.I stopped the machine and stood up.When I come back in a while, the pallets will probably be piled up like a mountain.

I picked up the receiver, and a low voice came: "Good job." I immediately understood that it was Ruosheng, and he seemed to know the identity of the corpse.He went on moaning, "I'm going to kill you!" "Didn't I tell you to let the horse come over?" He roared like a wild beast: "Ah, kill you! I must kill you! Just wait!" Putting down the phone, I greeted the business clerk who was counting overtime hours.She put down the ballpoint pen and looked at me timidly. I said, 'Give me a resignation form. " Clumsy, she seemed to be unable to understand, she opened her mouth halfway with an "ah" and did not respond.

"Resignation form. You have to write something to resign, right?" "Oh... got it." She finally stood up. Probably heard our conversation, the squad leader came over: "Hey, what do you want to do?" I found it troublesome, so I ignored him.But he refused to let go: "Speak up!" I put my fist against his chest: "If you don't want to do it, don't do it, don't talk too much." The middle-aged man who was so complacent as a squad leader realized that his little power was no longer available to me, so he suddenly became short of breath and stopped talking.

I took the resignation form from the clerk, wrote "for personal reasons" in the "necessary matters" column on the spot, and handed it to her: "Is that okay?" "You still have to go to the departments on the next block and get stamped on each..." There are several separate columns under the resignation form, which should be stamped with the head of the department, the health insurance department, the welfare department, and the like.It's boring.I pushed it to the clerk: "I don't have time to transfer, you can do it for me." "Huh? I can't do that."

"Then send it directly to the personnel department. I will send the insurance card and work permit in two days." After speaking, I left quickly. Once the body is identified, go away - I've been thinking about it since yesterday.Anyway, I was running out of time and either got caught by the police or went completely berserk.That being the case, I want to spend my final days in a suitable place, where I can draw like Naruse Junichi did in the past, no matter how painful it is, I will draw until I can't draw anyway, so I have to end myself-this is Jun Naruse's final resistance to Kyogoku.

I changed into casual clothes and hurried home.In fact, the luggage has already been prepared. I thought it might not be far from the truth, but I didn't expect it to be so soon. I walked to the door, turned the lock, and just took a step forward when I let out an "ah". Ah Hui sat in the room. "Ah... you're back." She seemed a little surprised, "What's wrong? You came back so early?" "What are you doing?" I asked, "Why are you here?" "I'm back, just now. Waiting for you here." I didn't know how to face her, what to say, staggered into the room, and sat across from her.I couldn't meet her eyes, my mind froze.

"Are you going on a trip?" She looked at her backpack, "Where are you going? In the mountains?" "It's not a trip." I looked into her face with blank eyes.Still the same freckles. "It's disappearing." "Disappear? What does disappear mean?" "Just disappear from this world!" I yelled. She trembled.Silence separated the two of them for a moment like a wall. "Why?" Her eyes were full of sadness, "What happened to you? Please, tell me, didn't you promise to tell me one day?" Watching her expression gave me a headache and it became difficult to sit still. "I... killed someone."

The moment she heard these words, her whole body froze like a broken doll, and her expression froze.After a while, her expression was still dull, only her neck began to shake like a clockwork: "You lied to me!" "I didn't lie to you. Remember that woman named Tachibana Naoko? I killed her, sawed it open with a saw, and buried her in the mountain. Didn't you hear the news that a dismembered body was found in Chichibu? The identity of the body is today Find out, the police will come here too. I don't want to cause trouble for you, so get out of here quickly." She plugged her ears and shook her head desperately: "No, I don't want to listen! Ah Chun...Ah Chun, you can't do that kind of thing!"

I pulled her hands away from her ears: "Listen, I am no longer the Jun you knew before! The person standing here is only the shell of Junichi Naruse, and he has become someone else inside!" "You nonsense, nonsense! I don't believe it!" She shook her head desperately, her hair messed up. "You have to believe it! My brain is being replaced by a transplanted Kyogoku brain!" "Kyogoku?" She looked at me with horror in her eyes. "Tang Yuan and the others lied to me. The brain transplanted to me came from Kyogoku, that murderer. My brain has also started to go crazy, and murder is the evidence. Do you understand?!" I pushed her aside, and she put her hands on on the floor. I stood up and took out the saw from the wall. It was stained with human blood. "Look at this!" I put it in front of her. "It's the woman it cut, in the bathroom!" Seeing the sawtooth, she frowned in pain, covered her mouth with her right hand, and convulsed all over her body, as if trying to hold back vomiting. "Do you believe it?" I said calmly, "Let's go when you understand. This matter has nothing to do with you." She hung her head and shook.I asked "why", and she raised her face full of tears to look at me: "Because I like you and love you. Diseases can always be cured, and I will show you the cure, and I will turn you back to the original Ah Chun. " "I can't go back. How many times do I have to tell you to understand? Anyway, I have no future, and the police will come to arrest me soon. If you don't go, I will go. I have to go too." I reached for my backpack, and Ah Hui hugged my leg: "Where are you going? Take me away." Don't be stupid, I want to spend my last days alone, and don't want to be disturbed by women. " I pulled her hair, but he didn't let go.I couldn't stand it and started kicking her.While sobbing, she hugged my waist, no matter if I kicked her or hit her in the face, she would not let go. Probably because the movement was too violent, my consciousness became confused, so I put down all my strength and let out a long sigh.Her back heaved. "Why?" I said, "Why don't you let me go alone?" She raised her head, her face had become red and swollen, probably because I just hit her. "If you want to die... die in front of me." "What did you say?" "I don't want to end my love like this. If it's going to die, show me, please." She bit her lip and stared at me intently. "I'm already crazy, it's dangerous to follow me." "Maybe kill me?" She said and nodded, "If you want to kill you, kill me. I will go with you." I look at her neck.Would I strangle her like I strangled Naoko? The moment he imagined killing Ah Hui, a severe headache hit him, as if he was being squeezed from the inside out.I squatted down holding my head. "What's the matter? Are you okay?" She leaned over to look at me. I stood still and waited for the headache to go away, and after a while, it disappeared without a sound.I stood up and looked at her: "Even if I have to leave, I don't know where to live tonight, you will only add to the chaos if you follow me." "Go to my place. I rent a short-term apartment. No one will find it there. Live in whatever you want." I read her expression vigilantly, but I had a premonition: If I suspect her further, the headache just now will happen again. "Is it close to here?" I asked. "It'll be a short ride by train." "Okay, you lead the way. You must never betray me." She lowered her eyebrows and shook her head: "I said it just now, if I betray you, just kill me." Head aches. "Okay, let's not talk." I put my backpack on and she picked up her little luggage and walked out the door.If the police come and find that I have fled, they will be sure that I am the one who killed Naoko Tachibana.It doesn't matter anymore, I just need free time not to be disturbed by anything, even if it's just a little bit. We walked silently towards the station, as long as we got to the station and got on the tram, we won. After walking for a while, just as I was walking, I heard the sound of a car approaching behind me.Turning around, a white box truck rushed straight towards us. "Dangerous!" Ah Hui jumped at me, and we both fell on the side of the road.The truck stopped about ten meters away, but the driver didn't get out of the car and walked away. "I don't even apologize for driving the car." She stood up and patted the dust off her clothes, and muttered. "He's probably very depressed right now." I also stood up, "I almost didn't succeed." "succeed?" "Just now, he wanted to hit me to death. The driver was probably Ruosheng." "Why did he kill you?" "I want revenge." I said and continued to walk towards the station. She rented a one-bedroom apartment, which was fairly large, and she could see buildings from the balcony.I no longer have the ability to judge whether it is ideal to paint here, so let's take landscape sketching as the first goal for now. "I use this room, don't come in casually, understand?" I put my luggage into the bedroom and told her. "Understood." She replied. The phone is in the bedroom, which is just what I like.I immediately picked up the phone and called Donghe University to find Ruosheng.After waiting for a while, he answered the phone. "What a pity," I said directly. He immediately realized it was me. "Where are you?" "I want to tell you, but I don't want to be disturbed. It's a pity that I can't give you the chance to kill me." He squeezed out a strange laugh: "Don't get too complacent. I'm not alone here, and they're all professional." "major?" "I don't know the details yet. It seems that someone has already ordered you to be killed, and it will be arranged as an accident. The monster that failed the test must be secretly exterminated before the failure is exposed. The police have also intervened, and everything will end in an accident. The situation is unnatural. I don't know where you are, but I'll find you!" "I hope you make it." "Catch up with what?" "My disappearance." "Don't even think about running away, I will chase you wherever you go." "I'll wait." I hung up the phone.
