All Worlds Madhouse

Chapter 292 No, it can’t end like this.

(I changed a paragraph from the previous chapter. I changed John’s memories to this chapter because I forgot a setting in the saved manuscript. Those who are serious-minded children can go back and re-read it. It doesn’t matter if you don’t re-read it. There is a difference. Not big.)

As John said, the next situation became a simple and fast exchange game, with both parties constantly throwing away the same chips.

After a few rounds, the number of chips has become:

William: 3 pieces

John: 2 pieces

Gill: 1 piece

"Eye." Gil threw out the last chip in his hand, and then finally exhaled a breath of relief. She finally got out of this game.

And William also took out the 'eye chip' in his hand and was about to throw it out.

But just at this moment

"Well, I have to say that if the game goes to this point, it will indeed end in a draw." The bartender interrupted this boring watch with some helplessness.

"So are you ready to end this game early?" John asked with lowered eyes.

unexpectedly

"Hehehe - of course not, because since this game is about to end, I have to return all your memories to you. After all, when I took these memories, I didn't give you any chips. I said , I am a person who follows the principle of equivalent exchange.”

Hearing these words of the bartender, John instinctively felt a very uneasy emotion. It seemed that these memories would change everything.

However, he no longer had time to think about anything else, because the moment he finished speaking,

The three memories were all returned to the three people present.

First of all, it is.

【In John's memory】

In his memory, John was embracing a woman.

"My dear, you have to hold on." John said softly, but he knew that it would not help. A sorrow seemed to spread from the body of the person in his arms to his own heart, and he could not even convince himself.

It was a kind of beautiful life that was being built. The moment the infrastructure was completed, it collapsed in despair. While all the previous efforts were wasted, the future was also dim.

"One more thing, I have to tell you that I have cancer. It's in my brain. There's no way to operate on it. In fact, I seem to have found a possible treatment, but the medical funds are all gone. It was rejected, I didn’t get a penny, and the treatment I mentioned couldn’t be carried out, so.”

These words echoed in John's mind, but he still didn't say them out.

He remembered that many years ago, he and his wife had promised not to cheat on each other and to get through difficult times together. However, looking at the woman in pain in his arms, John finally chose to cheat.

What he said was: "Don't be sad, everything will be fine."

However, it is not going to get better anymore. My life is a dead end. If the despair brought by fate is inevitable, then why should I add another scar to the despair?

He hugged the person in his arms tightly to himself.

"Yes, everything will be fine." Finally, the woman picked up the last bit of strength and raised her head.

That face. It's Jill.

And at the same time.

【In Jill's memory】

The cold wind slapped him on the face. Wherever he could see, there were many buildings. But he was standing on the highest point of the rooftop. One step in front of him was an abyss.

Although her husband tried his best to hide it, she finally knew that he had an incurable disease.

Fate played the most tragic joke on her. First she took away her child, and then, she wanted to take away her husband.

So, soon, I will be the only one left in this world.

Jill knew that no matter how great the grief was, it would eventually be resolved by time, as long as she was strong enough to get through it. However, she didn't seem that strong. She is just an ordinary woman.

"I can't make it through this."

She murmured softly, and then leaned forward slightly. The sound of howling wind passed by her ears, accompanied by a strong feeling of weightlessness.

The last moment in my memory was a roar that I didn't know if I heard.

【William's memory】

Pain, fatal pain, he felt that his whole body was burning, a corrosive liquid had been injected into his body, and they were devouring him from the inside out.

Based on his memory, he knew that this was the punishment John, Jigsaw, had given him, because he had cut off countless people's way of survival and destroyed countless families. This was his own judgment.

Although he feels that he is not guilty enough to die, in the face of death, who thinks that he really should die?

But it was all to no avail.

In his memory, his pitiful screams became weaker and weaker, and the pungent sour smell seeped out from every pore of his body. He could even recall the feeling that his heart was being corroded.

Finally, the three memories were all presented in front of the three people.

"Am I dead?" Jill said blankly.

William also looked at his hands, and then touched his body randomly, as if the sulfuric acid was still flowing in his body.

"Kill me!!" William looked at John and shouted angrily!

At this time, John raised his head in shock. He looked at the other side of the table, where Jill was still immersed in memories. This was the first time John had shown an expression other than indifference since the beginning of the game.

She...is his wife?

In an instant, the situation changed dramatically.

"Are we all dead?" Gil asked the bartender as if he had finally recovered.

"Yes, you are all dead. This is just a temporary station where you will lead to nothingness. Oh, you asked me a question before. You want to know where Cisse went, right? So, now I I think you should already know the answer. The place he should go to is the world after death."

When Jill listened to these words, she didn't know if she accepted the explanation. She just turned her head blankly and saw John who had been looking at her.

Eye to eye

"John." She said softly, and then slowly stretched out her hand. Although her expression did not change, tears had already gathered in the corners of her eyes.

That is my husband.

However, just when John was in a daze and wanted to reach out his hand, Jill suddenly disappeared.

"What. What's going on?" John was stunned.

"Oh, as you can see, she has no chips, so she is out of the game, just like she always expected." The bartender smiled, and then took a deep breath of the surrounding air, which seemed very exciting. Enjoy the moment.

"Oh, by the way, you were the one who asked her to throw away all her chips."
