Chapter 2: Let’s Go
Mo Yuan ran to a certain floor downstairs when suddenly two people rushed in outside the stairwell about to grab him. Luckily, there was no Han Lei among them, and instead of pulling Mo Yuan back, they were the ones who got punched by him. "Sorry!" Mo Yuan rushed to the first floor lobby and straightened out of the apartment, running wildly all the way. Fortunately, his cell phone was still on him, and in this day and age, only carrying a cell phone is the same as carrying a wallet. After rushing outside the apartment, he went straight to a shared bike placed outside the apartment complex, swept the QR code to unlock it, and then flew away on the bike. Right now, Mo Yuan would have to go straight to the airport. It was impossible for Qin Ziyuan to forcefully drag him back at the airport, right? The apartment's first floor lobby, at this time, Qin Ziyuan didn't expect that he still hadn't stopped Mo Yuan. "Both of you, you actually didn't stop him? If Mo Yuan has a short or long life, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Qin Ziyuan was really chagrined at this time, while the tenant he had called his cell phone to arrange to intercept Mo Yuan earlier was just as unsuccessful! In the lobby of the first floor of the apartment, the residents who executed this bloodletter had basically finished washing up and dragged their suitcases down. At this time, most of the residents were sleeping, not many were on the WeChat group, and everyone didn't know what was happening. "Mo Yuan?" A short-haired woman wearing a pair of glasses looked at this scene and quickly asked, "What happened to him, Mo Yuan?" Knowing that this group of occupants, since they had all only executed the Bloodletter once and couldn't bring their cell phones to the movie, almost every one of them didn't have much confidence in survival. And since Mo Yuan was willing to take the initiative to join, they were naturally overjoyed and never wanted anything to happen to him. Qin Ziyuan looked at the residents who were converging in the hall one after another, scratched his hair and took out a cigarette. The tenant he rebuked hurriedly took out a lighter and gestured to help him light the cigarette. Afterwards, he respectfully stood aside, not minding the choking smell of second-hand smoke at all. "Ding–" As the elevator doors opened once again, many of the residents, including Dong Xie, came out. The eight occupants who had executed the bloodletter this time had arrived. Dong Ning also came out with them to see off Dong Xie. "What's wrong with him, Mo Yuan?" Dong Xie asked as he quickly stepped in front of Qin Ziyuan. Qin Ziyuan took a deep drag on his cigarette, slightly calming his irritability. This past month or so, he had been in a bad mood, the opening of the entrance to hell had already caused him to be jittery, and now this whole thing with Mo Yuan had come up! He knew that what Mo Yuan was going to do now was definitely to head straight to the airport. If he ran to the airport to pull the person back, it would be almost impossible to succeed in full view of everyone. The occupant wasn't committing a criminal act during the execution of the Bloodletter, and if he did it too obviously, it would only be impossible not to be held accountable. For the current Qin Ziyuan, the only way was to go and block people around the airport. However, with Qin Ziyuan's understanding of Mo Yuan, it was too likely that he would just change airports and book another ticket. Mo Yuan re-selected an airport and booked a slightly later flight to W City, maximizing his defense against the possibility of Qin Ziyuan speculating which airport he would take off from and blocking him ahead of time, except for when he swept the code with his money and kept his phone off. After everything was ready, he reacquired himself a suit, tie, and even a razor. If he would meet the already dead Shadow Moon this time, he would keep himself looking his best. After Mo Yuan shaved off his beard, which he hadn't shaved for almost a year, in the mall's restroom, he used the taxi app to call a cab. Once the car arrived, he immediately turned his cell phone off and charged it with a rechargeable battery. He was already mentally prepared that he might not be able to come back alive. After Shadow Moon's death until now, he had been in a state of near depression, he just hadn't been able to go to the hospital to get a diagnosis. As far as he could remember, it was a certain time when his photography assistant, Xiaokang, abruptly quit his job, and then he went to look for Xiaokang. The latter was on the verge of losing control of his emotions and finally told Mo Yuan that he had entered an apartment that was comparable to hell and had been cursed. And that he would soon have to carry out his first Bloodletter mission. It was impossible for a normal person to believe such words, not to mention the curse of the apartment itself, so no matter what means the occupants used to disclose the existence of the apartment to the community, they would fail. However, at that time, Mo Yuan, who had already fallen into severe depression and even needed to take medication to treat his severe insomnia, was pleasantly surprised when he heard the words "one wish can be granted". He was already a bit unhinged, and even though he thought it couldn't be true, he still asked Xiaokang to take him into the apartment. For him, living in a state of depression where he thinks about death every day is better than seeking a silver lining. Eventually, Kom took him into the apartment and hid from all the residents that he had entered the apartment of his own accord. However, not more than a few months later, Fang Han, who had completed the tenth Bloodletter, had the scope of everything he wished for floating in his mind when he was given the opportunity to make a wish. Unfortunately, resurrection of the dead was never possible. In other words, taking the initiative to enter the apartment had no meaning to Mo Yuan. He had suffered such a cruel curse for nothing, and even if he could complete the Blood Character ten times, it would mean nothing to him. He had no desire beyond that. This extremely painful matter was only known to Fang Han and Qin Ziyuan. Whether it was Fang Han or Qin Ziyuan, they both said that he had every option to use his wish to take revenge on those keyboard warriors. But Mo Yuan had no interest in revenge, all he wanted was to be able to be with his favorite person again. Airfield. Dong Xie had already taken his seat. He had to turn his cell phone off when the plane took off, so he was making one last call to Dong Ning. "Ning, don't stay in the apartment all the time when I'm not there. You can go find your girlfriends to play around and hang out." "Brother …… how can I possibly feel at ease to go and play while you are carrying out your bloodletter instructions? You must, must take care!" "Well …… I know, Ning." "Brother, be sure to come back alive!" "I will." Under the reminder of the stewardess on the side, Dong Xie turned off his cell phone. And sitting next to him was the short-haired female occupant wearing glasses. "It's the first time I've gone to W City ……" The woman, whose name was Qiao Bi, looked apprehensive at this time, "I didn't realize that it would actually be to carry out the Bloodletter… …" "It's my first time as well." Dong Xie thought that everyone would definitely have to work as a team during the Bloodletter mission, so she climbed into conversation with her as well. Dong Xie looked out the airplane window at the diminishing K City. Mo Yuan must have rebooked his flight, and when he got to W City, he was sure to contact the residents as well. Qin Ziyuan thought of all the means he could think of, and in the end, he could only accept reality. Before departing, Qin Ziyuan explained a few things to himself. "After arriving in W City, Mo Yuan will definitely contact you immediately. Before officially executing the Blood Character, you will keep me informed of his situation." Dong Xie had originally thought that these two were opposites, and the apartment dwellers had been secretly circulating the so-called "Double Far Controversy". These two people, whose names both had the character Yuan, had polar opposite personalities, however, it now seemed that Qin Ziyuan was quite caring towards Mo Yuan, as to whether this was due to not wanting to lose a companion who had a high blood character count and at the same time was enthusiastic about helping the other tenants, or whether he himself also had a kind of admiration for and reluctance to give up on Mo Yuan as well? Perhaps we can only say that human nature is complex. The clear-cut good guys and bad guys like in movies and TV dramas are just instrumental roles to promote the conflict between good and evil, and in reality, people are actually more often in the chaotic black and white. "He's a very poor man." Finally, Qin Ziyuan said this, "I think, in his heart, I'm afraid death is already a kind of relief. But I still wish him a good life." Of the eight people who carried out the Bloodletter this time, only Dong Xie was the one who had defected to Qin Ziyuan. And the first task he had given himself was actually to help Mo Yuan as much as possible in the Blood Word mission. At this moment, Qin Ziyuan stood in front of the windowsill and lit another cigarette. Mo Yuan's biggest problem lay in the fact that he had gradually lost his desire to live. To him, the future was too treacherous, and even if he survived all the blood words he wouldn't get what he wanted most. This is also the reason why his series of actions in the fifth blood word, how to look at it does not match his building manager identity. Mo Yuan's subconscious …… has been gradually giving up on survival ……
