[He's right beside me, but I can't sense his presence.]
Six years after leaving, I returned to the island.
The scenery here was picturesque, and the river stretched on without end. The reeds along the shore were fluffy with silvery down, just as itchy to look at as before.
I followed the path across the ditch and arrived at the old house where I'd once lived. The mayor had come to me several times, asking me to find a way to get rid of the house, but you always told me not to come back...
"Qingqing, don't come back." That was the last message you sent me before you disappeared. But driven by curiosity about the truth, I came back anyway.

A strange, otherworldly sound ushered in a night of madness in the town. Objects were deconstructed, thoughts were unleashed, and chaos and disorder consumed every inch of the island. A sickness called nothingness quietly spread, infecting everyone.
At last, I understood why you'd tried to stop me from coming back. But by then, I could no longer escape.
Sci-fi suspense, a touch of Lovecraftian horror, third-person narration.
Reader advisory: The ending is happy, but not fully satisfying. Please proceed with caution if that bothers you.
Feel free to point out any flaws in the theoretical logic.
Theme: Forge ahead fearlessly

I didn't understand the ending. Why did it say that Lu Qingqing was "talking to herself" at the end? So did Xie Ming return to reality? Or is it just that he can only exist in the heroine's mind?
I came here from xhs, my wife wrote very well.
Without the indescribable feeling of the haze in Innsmouth, was Cat Cat inspired by Ursa?
