The Asylum of All Worlds

Chapter 383 The truth?

The townspeople who were still shouting angrily just now suddenly became quiet, and a feeling of scalp tingling rushed into everyone's consciousness.

Several people took a step back subconsciously, and what's more, their legs went limp and they fell to the ground.

Andrew. This small town boy who was supposed to be dead, and was somehow forgotten by people, just appeared in the sight of everyone.

"how are you"

The mayor of Wright was also frightened by the sudden appearance of this person. From the look on his face, he knew that he was undoubtedly one of the people who 'knew that Andrew existed and what happened to Andrew's death'.

"Hehe. Why am I here, am I already dead?" Andrew smiled, and completed the second half of the mayor's words: "This is indeed a question, but I want to ask my question first [Fry Di] Who the hell?Why do you all know that I am suffering in my dream, but you don't save me, but just watch me being burned to death! "

He roared angrily, his anger was not at all like a student who just entered college, but more like a ghost crawling out of a burning hell.

"us."

"Tell me! You group of murderers!" Andrew roared unrelentingly.

And the word murderer, solidly penetrated into the psychology of this group of town residents. Although it was just a simple narrative, when the word was uttered from the mouth of a dead person, it became a A torture beyond psychological endurance.

Finally, Mayor Wright sighed.

"Son, this is indeed our fault, but we have to do this. You are the hero of this town. Although no one else remembers you, you are the hero of this town."

Andrew frowned: "I prefer to be alive than to be a hero, and... I need the truth."

"Well, you should know the truth."

Wright said, but immediately, the townspeople behind him became violent: "Mayor, you can't do this, we once swore that no one can mention that matter again, we will bring this secret into the to hell."

"Hell? Hehe, then where do you think Andrew came from? Maybe, this is the torture of us by God, we killed him, and he has the right to know all this!"

I don't know why, it seems that all the townspeople are not concerned with the matter of 'the dead Andrew is standing in front of them', they seem to care more about the so-called 'truth'.

"You have the right to know the truth," Wright said again.

And finally, a taboo story will be told.

This story goes back 35 years.
At that time, this small town was unknown. It is even more unknown than it is now. Even if it is mentioned to people in the same state, it is possible that they have never heard of it.

At that time, there were only a hundred or so families in the entire town. The person who managed these people was a very kind mayor.

At that time, the townspeople standing in this living room were still very young and lived a peaceful and carefree life until one day, a fire broke out in the mayor's house.There were three people in that fire, one was the mayor, the second was an orphan girl adopted by the mayor, and the third was 【Freddie Krueger】

The fire was raging, and when the people in the town rushed over, the mayor had already been burned to death, while Freddy Krueger and the little girl escaped the flames by luck.

Almost the whole town was there at the time, so we were curious as to what the cause of the fire was and why Freddie was there.

And the girl told everyone what happened
That is... this fire was actually set by Freddy!
The little girl is beautiful, and the whole town loves her, including Freddy, but he shows his affection in the form of crazy possessiveness, so Freddy stalks the little girl, and Sneaked into her home, trying to do something impulsive to him as a young man just awakened, but the mayor came back and ran into Freddy, and the two wrestled together, and finally Freddy frantically lit house, and burned the mayor to death.

Freddy was a villain, even though he was only a teenager at the time, but the whole town knew it, we were very angry, he set fire, burned the mayor, and desecrated the most beautiful girl in the town, finally , amid the girl's cries, the angry townspeople, that is, us, pushed Freddie into the flames again.

Originally, we thought it was over.

But that doesn't seem to be the case, because Freddy is back, and he has become a ghost who can sneak into other people's dreams.

His ability is extremely powerful, he can get into our dreams, abuse us, and kill us.

But at first, this didn't cause much panic, after all, it was just a dream, but... as time went by, Freddy's power became stronger and stronger, and finally, the first person to die in a dream Appeared.

Yes, Freddy was able to actually kill someone in a dream.

During that time, the town fell into the greatest crisis in history. People died one after another, so that we didn't dare to sleep or close our eyes. In the end, we couldn't stand it anymore, and some people directly chose to commit suicide.

This is no longer a matter that can be solved with normal theories, so we asked a priest for help at that time, and he told us that the reason why Freddy returned after death was because of resentment, and his death carried a huge burden. resentment and unwillingness, so...he came back for revenge.

But we don't know where this resentment comes from, because his death is entirely due to his own evil, and he deserves to die!

In this way, day by day, more and more people died in the dream.

Finally one day, the little girl who survived the sea of ​​flames told the truth.

It turned out that everything she said before was false, and the person who harbored ill intentions towards her was actually that sanctimonious mayor!Freddy, on the other hand, broke in just for her sake.

And at that time, why she lied. In fact, she couldn't tell clearly. Maybe it was because her young heart couldn't bear that her adoptive father was such a sanctimonious devil. Maybe it was because the scene at that time made her think that even if she said If the truth came out, the townspeople would not approve of it. After all, no one would believe that the amiable mayor would be such a person.

In short, she lied, and this lie led to Freddy's death, and even caused Freddy to return as a ghost.

But now, the girl has realized what she has done, so... she took a lot of sleeping pills, and before she died, she handed herself over to Freddy.

But Freddy's death was not a simple lie. In fact, everyone in the town participated, so Freddy's resentment was not completely eliminated.

In desperation, the priest used various methods, and finally found a way to restrain Freddy again, that is. Since he exists in the dreams of the people in the small town, then when the people in the small town are no longer afraid of him, no matter what. When you dream of him, or even don't remember him at all, then his power will be weakened, or even eliminated forever.

So a plan to 'forget Freddy' began.

The priest betrayed his faith for the sake of this town, and he cast a curse on everyone, making us all forget about Freddy.

At the same time, just in case, he also selected some children, let them still remember Freddy, but cursed them that they would never have dreams
This is not enough, because Freddy will try to make others remember him, so the priest's third curse is to make all those who died in dreams be forgotten just like Freddy.

Yes, as long as it is the person killed by Freddy, there will be no memory left at all, your parents, your relatives, your friends, all the people you love will completely forget your existence, I Know it's cruel, but... like I said, there's no way we can have anyone remember [Freddie Krueger].

As time passed, the town finally returned to calm, and Freddy finally did not appear again.

It's been 35 years, and those chosen kids, us, have all grown up, and we actually thought, if we die too, then Freddy will be completely wiped out.

But the reality seems to be not as simple as imagined. The name Freddy was mentioned again, maybe it is because of you Andrew, you went to college and walked out of this small town, so Freddy found an opportunity , and this group of outsiders just happened to mention the name [Freddy] in front of you.

So you brought Freddy back
In fact, we could also use the method of deleting memories to calm this matter down again, but unfortunately, the priest died of old age a few years ago, so...you must die too!We're sad about this, but...sorry, there's nothing else we can do.

Mayor Wright told Andrew all this intact: "Now, can you rest in peace?"

Andrew looked at each other coldly: "Oh, that is to say, you are not a group of cold-blooded murderers, are you? You are protecting this town. You are heroes, right?"

No one answered. Everyone could hear that it was a mockery.

"It's all an excuse, if no one in the world remembers Freddie, then Freddie doesn't exist, so why don't you guys die? It's been over 30 years, and you should be sure that this statement is true or false. , since you have all confirmed it, then you group of people who can’t dream can all commit suicide collectively!” Andrew said: “It’s so righteous and awe-inspiring, but in the end, is it because you don’t want to die?”

"It is because you people still remember Freddy, so he has not been completely wiped out. You are using the safety of others to make excuses for your own fear of death. In my opinion, you are not as good as the one who offered to sacrifice himself. Adopted girls for Freddy, you cowards!"

Andrew accused, finally, a townsman couldn't bear it anymore.

"Damn, why are we talking nonsense with him, I don't care if he is a man or a ghost, I have holy water in the church here! Let's get rid of him! Otherwise, this guy may have too much resentment, and he will become another Freddy!"

As soon as the words came out, the townspeople finally found a reason to kill Andrew. The group began to shout, and each took out crosses, silverware, and other things from their pockets, and gestured fiercely at Andrew. with.

"Hehe, sure enough, as long as it involves yourself, you guys will frantically put yourself on a high moral platform. I kind of understand why the little girl didn't dare to tell the truth at that time. If she If you don't give the answer you want to hear, maybe she, like Freddy, was pushed into the sea of ​​fire by you, a group of sanctimonious guys, you are the devil."

"kill him!"

"Let him go back to hell!"

The crowd was boiling, and this group of townspeople seemed to fall into a state of hysteria immediately. Just by looking at their faces, they could tell that morality and reason were all worthless in their eyes.

A last trace of apology flashed in Mayor Wright's eyes, and then he lowered his head, letting the people behind him shout louder and louder.

"I'm sorry." This was his last voice.

Immediately afterwards, in his sight, the group of townspeople roared and rushed past him, holding all kinds of strange things, and drowned Andrew
But at this moment.
"time up!"

A voice appeared.

With this sound, everything in front of him was still, and the group of townspeople who were flailing their teeth and claws turned into a stiff picture. Then, the picture cracked inch by inch, and with a "snap", it turned into flying glass shards.

A clean and tidy living room appeared in front of him, and those townspeople did not exist at all.

In front of Wright, there was only Alice looking at him with extremely shocked eyes.

And the group of foreigners staring at him with cold eyes.

Wright was dumbfounded, he didn't understand what happened, but in a panic, he saw the doctor's eyes.

In the depths of those lazy pupils, a touch of breathtaking scarlet color gradually receded.

Perhaps, someone has forgotten, so I have to say it again here.
