One day after returning to the country, Hong Dou suddenly went missing.

I couldn't find it no matter where I looked.

Helpless, I had no choice but to contact the property management to check the surveillance cameras and reach out to nearby stores to inquire about Hong Dou's whereabouts.

When I finally located Hong Dou, I also witnessed what it had been doing every day during the period I was abroad with Jiang Nan.

It had three destinations.

One was a bar that Gu Yi used to frequent.

Another was the entrance to the location where I was filming.

The last one was the sea where Gu Yi passed away.

Every day, Hong Dou's route included these locations.

Sometimes it took the bus, other times it ran. In any case, it stayed at each place for a long time before leaving.

Perhaps, Hong Dou missed its owner.

I found Hong Dou by the seaside.

It was squatting on a rock, staring blankly at the ocean.

I called out, "Hong Dou."

It turned around and ran toward me.

If only that day I had also called out to Gu Yi from behind, calling his name.

Would he have run to me like Hong Dou, instead of jumping off?

After bringing Hong Dou home, a package suddenly appeared at the door.

Before I could open it, Hong Dou rushed over and started barking. It clawed at the box until it was slightly torn, from which a crimson liquid began to seep out.

Hong Dou stood in front of me, preventing me from approaching, as if it was something terrifying.

Hong Dou's barking attracted a patrolling security guard. He poked the package open with a stick.

Upon opening it, the security guard paused and told me it was someone's prank and that he would dispose of it.

He assured me that they would tighten the security to prevent strangers from entering the neighborhood and advised me not to be afraid.

After he left, I secretly went to look at the trash bin.

Inside the package was a sculpted head of mine, surrounded by blood.

The security guard probably didn't want me to see it, fearing it would scare me.

But I had already seen it many times before.

They were sent by fans who liked Gu Yi.

They thought I had killed Gu Yi and wanted me to die with him.

I didn’t tell anyone because I believed they were right.
