Chapter 77 Escape from the Other World
"Palette? Why is it this thing?"
Gu Yi looked at the color palette from left to right. The more he looked at it, the more it looked like the color palette on the fortune teller's face.
"Um……"
Gu Yi touched his nose.
In the previous copy, the host played the fake Toto, and when he left in a rage, the color palette on his face turned red.
In this copy, the host plays the role of a fortune teller. When he returns to the old house from the circus, the color palette on his face turns red, and turns blue when he is fortune-telling.
Could it be that different colors on the palette can unleash different strange powers?
Red is space travel?
Blue predicts the future?
"Let's see if it works."
(Deduction begins!)
(You take the palette and go to your sister's room.)
(You found the paint on your sister's desk.)
(You start by putting blue paint on the palette.)
(The pigment was absorbed into the palette until it became pure white.)
(Blue paint does not work on the palette.)
(You pick up the red paint and squeeze it onto the palette.)
(The palette begins to heat up and vibrate violently.)
( Put down your palette now.)
(A void portal appears in front of you.)
(You step through the door.)
(You see nothingness before your eyes.)
(You terminated the game!)
"There should be no problem. The reason why I can't deduce is because I left the other world and went to a higher level."
Gu Yi took the palette and put all the plot props he found into his schoolbag, then went to his sister's room and found the paint.
He took out the blue paint and just unscrewed the lid when he heard a rustling sound coming from the surrounding.
Gu Yi's heart trembled and a drop of cold sweat ran down his forehead.
"Deduction!"
(Deduction begins!)
(You see nothingness before your eyes.)
(You see nothingness before your eyes.)
(You see nothingness before your eyes.)
(you are dead.)
(The deduction is over!)
Gu Yi quickly picked up the palette and looked back.
His sister's room began to become blurry and distorted, and pixels were crumbling one by one. Gu Yi took out the almond water and took a sip. Sure enough, he saw his sister floating in the air behind him.
She was from a higher dimension and was ineffable, so she could not use her innate abilities to deduce.
If you don't handle it properly, the death flag may be triggered directly.
Hiss, hiss, hiss——
My sister's hair fluttered, blue electric light flashed between her hair, and she slowly opened her eyes.
"who are you?"
My sister didn't open her mouth, but Gu Yi heard her voice clearly.
Gu Yi's heart beat in his throat, he clenched his fists, and his palms were full of sweat.
"Don't you recognize me? I'm your brother..."
"No, you are not him, who are you?"
Gu Yi's feet were hanging in the air, his whole body was out of control, and even breathing became difficult.
"Don't worry about who I am. What matters is that I can relieve your pain." Gu Yi squeezed out a voice from his throat, "Don't do this... I'm suffocating."
"You? You know nothing. It was you who killed my brother. It was you who killed him."
"Your brother is not dead, but he is trapped in a dream by you. It's time to wake up Gu Yao."
"You're lying to me! I want to be with my parents and brother forever. If I kill you, I can get my brother back."
Gu Yi's eyes were red and full of stars.
"They...are not your parents...idiots!"
My sister was stunned for a moment when she heard this.
Gu Yi's pressure suddenly eased, and he continued to reveal more explosive information.
"If you still want your brother to live, then let me go. They are doing all kinds of cruel things to your brother. You don't want your brother to be abused like you, right? You want your brother to be able to live freely and live with mom and dad, right?"
"What are you talking about? You know nothing!"
The younger sister didn't believe Gu Yi's nonsense at all. Gu Yi felt severe pain all over his body, and his fingertips had gradually turned into pixels.
"Dark Moon told me everything. He sent me to fulfill your last wish."
"Uncle Dark Moon? He's a good man... He even taught me how to blow up a puppy balloon... Brother... Save me... Save me..."
My sister laughed and cried at the same time, her body gradually twisted and turned into a pile of pixels that dissipated into the air.
“Ahem—”
Gu Yi knelt on the ground, gasping for breath, and the surrounding scenery was gradually turning into blurred pixels.
The other world created by her sister is on the verge of collapse, and her own mental state does not seem to be normal either.
What Gu Yi just said was all nonsense. It was not until he brought up the Dark Moon leader that his sister let him go.
There are actually only four conclusions he can confirm at the moment.
1. The "I" in reality is in a coma or dream, which causes the flow of time to be out of sync with the real world, and the power of my sister's dreams can be exerted.
2. Before my sister became unspeakable, she had been abused by her parents, which can be easily inferred from her diary.
3. The second half of my and my sister’s diary must be about my sister’s tragic past in the family and how my parents are gradually becoming weird.
4. My sister, I, and my parents may not be related by blood. The brother and sister were both abducted by their parents. I can find a way to investigate and verify this as long as I return to the surface world.
Judging from my sister’s performance just now, Gu Yi’s conclusion is basically correct.
After the car accident, my sister thought I was dead, and I thought my sister was dead, but in fact, both brother and sister were not dead.
Out of longing for her brother and fear of abuse from her parents, the younger sister became an unspeakable existence after coming into contact with the Darkmoon Circus. The older brother was eroded by an unspeakable force and was always trapped in this illusory island town.
Thinking in this way, the real name of the island town should be "Fantasy Island".
Snap, snap—
The old house is gradually falling apart.
Gu Yi quickly took out the palette and sprinkled red paint on it.
The palette vibrated violently, and Gu Yi immediately threw it away.
The color palette shattered into pieces and turned into a void portal. Gu Yi held his head and dived in.
…
“Huh——”
Gu Yi took a deep breath, like a drowning person finally breathing air. He opened his eyes and found himself lying on a hospital bed.
Gu Yi struggled to get up from the bed, feeling exhausted all over.
"Awake? Son, are you awake?"
Came the mother's voice.
Gu Yi turned his head and saw his mother holding his hand and crying with joy.
"Wait a minute, I'll go call the doctor."
The mother ran out in a flash, leaving her cell phone on the bed and forgetting to take it with her.
Gu Yi picked up his phone and looked at the date.
June 11, 2021
As he had guessed, he had been in the inner world for a year, but in the outer world, only a month had passed. Gu Yi's head was buzzing, and it took him a long time to realize that the buzzing was a prompt from the system.
"You have escaped from the [Unspeakable Illusion]!"
"Your story exploration level has increased!"
"The current plot exploration level is 70%!"
"Your spirit has become stronger, and your mental strength limit has been increased to 90/90."
"You have been given a chance to talk to reality. Please choose who to talk to after finding a public telephone booth."
