Chapter 31 Problems
Freddy's words continued.
"In that dream town of Princewood, there are all Alice's obsessions. These obsessions are intertwined in chaos... For example, Mayor Wright, his tenderness towards his daughter, represents Alice's yearning for fatherly love, but what he did in secret is Alice's hatred for the real mayor, and those townspeople, they are projections of the real townspeople, a group of selfish and talks with high-sounding words, but what is hidden in his heart is enough to make people disgusted."
"Their curse is true, they should have endured that kind of curse, but... the town of Princewood in the dream still looks very warm and quiet. That is Alice's yearning for the beautiful side of this town... Oh, by the way, there is also the boy named Andrew. Maybe Alice really hopes for a love in her heart. She hopes that this town still has a pure heart, so Andrew will exist."
Ziliang nodded: "Well, if this happens, everything seems to be explained clearly, but now I still have a question. Since we were in a dream before, this place is the reality... Then... where are my companions?"
Yes, if the dream was before, then where are Old Joey and others? Since I woke up, Ziliang has never seen them. So... Ziliang even suspected that everything here is an illusion created by Alice again in order to gain some time.
Fortunately, things did not continue in such a complicated direction.
Because, Freddy shook her head with a smile.
"So, you don't understand the dream yet. In fact, all this is nothing more than true or false. You can think about it. If Alice in the dream also had a dream, in her dream, Elm Street was a desolate street that had been burned by a fire, and the entire town of Princewood was already deserted, leaving only herself and a person with burns all over the body. Just like now, then, which side is the dream and which side is the reality..."
Ziliang couldn't help but sigh when he heard Freddy's words, thinking that why the mentally-designed guys always make these mysterious things?
"Okay OK, I'm really not good at these topics, but I know someone who can discuss them with you."
Before he finished speaking...
"I won't go with you." Freddy said directly.
"Ah?" Ziliang was stunned: "You already know what my purpose is?"
"Yes, while you observe me, I am also observing you. I know the so-called [fragments of sin], and I also know that I am one of the fragments, but... as I said before, I am a sinner, and my mission is to say Alice...so, I will not follow you."
At this moment, Ziliang really wanted to take a cigarette to smoke. He never thought that a piece of [Sin Fragment] arranged for himself was atonement. Why did this sound so inconsistent?
But I imagine that a butcher's full-time job is to raise pigs, so it seems that it can be explained.
So now, a big problem is in front of Ziliang—‘How can I take Freddy away?’
Sin fragments are very troublesome. Either you let him follow him willingly, or you can use absolute force to make him surrender.
The path of "willing to follow me" has been denied by Freddy just now, and "molted by force"... Seeing Freddy grasping the axe blade he had chopped just now, Ziliang felt that he did not have the ability to beat him to the point of being convinced.
In this way, Ziliang was silent for a while, and then his eyes turned to Alice... It was this little girl who tied Freddy here.
"How long has she been like this?" Ziliang asked suddenly.
"For more than 30 years, she has fallen into a deep sleep shortly after that fire."
Ziliang nodded, then asked a question...
He asked, "After so many years, why didn't you kill her?"
Well—Okay, if there was a third person present, I would be very surprised to hear this question. Freddy said that he was protecting her, so how could he even kill her?
However, Freddy smiled helplessly: "Actually... I really thought about killing her. I couldn't bear to see her sinking into my dream forever. She was too chaotic there. She was looking forward to love. She didn't dare to go out at home every day. She loved the quiet town and had fatherly love, but at the same time she hated her father. She was loved by the townspeople, but at the same time she was cursing the whole town... She had too many obsessions, and I could foresee that she would lose herself sooner or later, but...I couldn't wake her up. Every time I woke up, I could feel the huge pain in her body. It was not something a child should bear... So, killing her seemed to be the cruelest and the best choice."
"So...why don't you keep doing it?"
Freddy still smiled bitterly, then stretched out a sharp finger and gently pointed it between Alice's eyebrows.
Then, an amazing scene appeared, and the finger easily penetrated Alice without even a hindrance, just like her in a dream.
"Since that fire, she has been in a state of dreams and reality, so no one can meet her, including herself. Otherwise, she would have ended her own life decades ago, so she would not have to use self-hypnosis."
"So that's it, but why didn't you let me chop her in your dream before?"
"The attack too strong will awaken her." Freddy answered Ziliang's question in a simple way.
"Okay, it seems that there is really nothing to do." Ziliang said, but almost as he said this, a solution appeared in his mind.
Ziliang was stunned for a moment, then a little bitterness appeared in his face. "Uh... no, right?" he muttered.
Freddy looked at Ziliang: "What's wrong?"
Ziliang hesitated and said, "Hiss... Actually, I have a way to solve your problem and let Alice escape from this painful cycle of reincarnation that cannot even die."
"What?" Freddy's body trembled suddenly, and a flash of light burst out in her eyes. That posture was about to pounce on Ziliang.
"Wait." Ziliang quickly pushed Freddy aside with his hands: "I have a...uh, friend, who can help, but... I have to pay a considerable price to summon her, so..."
