No one knows what happened to the Tokugawa River.
But based on the last words of the Tokugawa River, Wen Xishu can deduce a bit of the picture.
[Tokugawa River: It can’t be fake, Wen Xishu, even if you are Wen Xishu, you can’t say it’s fake. Our family is so warm, this child is more filial to me than my own! They can’t be fake. Everything I have given will be rewarded here.]
[Tokugawa River: The zombies are coming, I will guard them at the corridor entrance! Unfortunately, I have no asset value left, but I still have this life, I will protect them.]
After saying this, Tokugawa River disappeared.
At the same time, the game underwent an update.
[Wind City East District, updated with a new novice mission - Family Reunion, difficulty one skull.]
If Ye Lingfeng, Tong-faced Wolf, and Zhang Hai haven’t done this task, they won’t have that kind of deep-seated fear.
But Wen Xishu had that feeling.
Wen Xishu still remembers the first words of the Tokugawa River - [Tokugawa River: I just helped a woman find medicine to treat her child, her child was infected... But I spent some asset values to redeem the antidote, now the whole family is very grateful to me. Even in the apocalypse, there is warmth.]
At this moment, Wen Xishu thought of the first task he did, the man in the military green coat, guarding the stairway entrance, although he had become a zombie, he was still protecting his family, not letting other zombies get close.
At this moment, is Tokugawa River also wearing a military green coat?
The life of Tokugawa River is a tragic one. Wen Xishu doesn’t know it clearly, but he remembers the motivations of everyone who came here.
The motivation of Tokugawa River is for his own son.
Wen Xishu finds it hard to imagine what kind of son can force an old father who teaches to come to the Deceit Tower?
He might have an answer in his mind.
Maybe, Tokugawa River gave everything to his son, but the son is a typical freeloader.
When he ran out of money, he would call the old man to get some gold coins, and when he didn’t have a good job, he would complain about why he was born. In reality, Tokugawa River’s son even developed a strange sexual fetish, sometimes taking orders of a higher level from the Bunker, acting as a woman to serve.
Tokugawa River was heartbroken, he thought if he could just find a decent job for his child, the child wouldn’t fall.
So, Tokugawa River thought of trying his luck in the Deceit Tower.
But unexpectedly, the task he encountered in the Deceit Tower was a warm family task, and the woman and child he saved were very grateful to him.
Tokugawa River found his emotional sustenance in the game.
He gradually became obsessed, thinking he must protect his child.
When Wen Xishu discovered that the game could read desires and devour people through desires, he wondered why Tokugawa River had an antidote.
Because Tokugawa River is a person who values family, the tasks he received were related to family harmony.
This often means that the person’s real family might be very bad.
The urban soldier king in the game is a attention-seeking Chuunibyou in reality. The business tycoon in the game is just a poor kid fantasizing about having business talents in reality, the Hero in the game is just a bullied criminal in reality.
Of course, there are also those whose game and reality are completely consistent. The game can accommodate everything, but can everything accept the disparity and return to reality?
Tam couldn’t, and Tokugawa River couldn’t either.
Wen Xishu speculated that to protect this virtual family, Tokugawa River had sacrificed everything he could.
But in the end...
In a certain hotel building, Tokugawa River put on the military green coat, set up a barbed wire trap outside room 2111, with a determined look, kissed the woman and child in the game, and then...
Came to the corridor entrance. At this moment, he forgot all the troubles in the bunker, forgot about the real child who only called him an old man.
Now, he only wanted to protect his woman and child in the game.
Finally, he became a part of the game. The moment he turned into a zombie, he was happy.
Wen Xishu’s guess was about 80% close to the truth.
He wouldn’t sympathize with Tokugawa River, nor would he mock someone for forgetting their real child for the game.
This world is just like this, in Wen Xishu’s previous life, in the health supplement scam, what the old people bought wasn’t really the supplements, but the scammer’s attentiveness to the old people.
Reality is so terrible, so all the beauty, even if it’s an illusion, someone will be willing to deceive themselves.

Golden Mansion. Wen Xishu’s makeup was finally done.
The makeup artist Ah Jie took a photo of Wen Xishu. At Wen Xishu’s request, the makeup artist made detailed annotations to the photo, explaining why each makeup design was like this.
Finally, the makeup artist sent everything to his contact, emphasizing that all of this was required by number 245.
Number 245 is Wen Xishu’s current number, and it is also Wen Xishu’s current name.
Wen Xishu’s action soon sparked discussion among the monitors.
The monitors uploaded everything to the real managers.
That is the owner of the Golden Mansion, Charles Yang.
Yang looked at the annotations made by the makeup artist Jack and didn’t expect the newcomer to be so "attentive."
