"……No?"
There is no heart or any organs in the box, only a slightly damaged book that seems to be old... Strictly speaking, it is a "photo album".
Qinzi frowned slightly, the development of the matter seemed to be inconsistent with her reasoning, did she guess wrong?
But if the heart is not here, where is it?Will there be hints in this album?
With such doubts, Qinzi took out the photo album and opened the first page.
I saw a family portrait at the beginning, a pair of ordinary-looking couples—an office worker wearing glasses and a wife with a dangerous hairstyle, smiling happily in the camera, holding a woman with little hair in her arms. baby.
A big red heart was drawn on the photo, circling all three of them, and there was a line of words at the bottom:
[In the new year, we have a new family. I really want to share our happiness with others—the Asuka family. 】
"..."
Qinzi was silent for a moment, then looked back at the girl's body on the ground.
"So... is this the so-called 'heart'?"
Om-!
The skyscrapers blocking the front of this dead end gradually deformed in the muffled sound like thunder, like a toy built with blocks, began to emerge layer by layer of dividing lines, and then retreated step by step...
In the end, what was presented to the three of them was a gigantic staircase with tens of thousands of floors leading straight to the sky!
"The entrance is revealed."
Just when Lin Ye and Qinzi were still feeling emotional about this spectacular scene, the murderer boy suddenly spoke, his voice became slightly different from before, with a hint of playfulness in his childishness, which gave Lin Ye a familiar feeling.
"It's a pity that I couldn't trap you to death on this floor."
"After all, we've always been lucky, and unlike someone else, I'm a real beautiful girl detective."
Qinzi looked back at the murderer boy with a very cold tone: "What do you think, Mr. Fake Detective?"
"Hahaha... really sharp."
The murderer boy couldn't help laughing, and his shoulders couldn't help shaking, looking very happy.
And seeing this, why couldn't Lin Ye guess the other party's real body?
"Asuka well in the forest..."
"Yes, it's me!"
Tear off the beak mask from his face, change the style of the top hat and clothes, even adjust his figure and appearance, and the murderer boy instantly becomes a famous detective who had a relationship with Lin Ye—Lin Zhongjing bird.
"It turned out to be you... When did you change it?" Lin Ye said in a bad tone, "My projection is very comfortable for you to use, right?"
"Indeed, I learned a lot."
Asuka bowed politely: "I have been me since the second reincarnation, boxing, hidden weapons, sword skills... You know so many things, but thanks to you, I can get further improvement .”
The corner of Lin Ye's mouth twitched. Although he was extremely upset, he was a little envious of his learning speed.
"The existence of the dream world... It's really convenient to learn things."
"After all, we don't have an entity, and our whole life is just a phantom in a dream... It is precisely because we are phantoms that we can be more unrestrained than living humans."
Lin Zhongjing Asuka tapped lightly on his feet, jumped more than ten meters high as if walking on the moon, lightly crossed the forest field and Qinzi, and landed on the huge staircase that just appeared.
"Since you have solved the puzzle of the world, then I have no reason to stop you from going deeper.
But please be prepared, if there is a chance to meet again, then next time... next time it will not be this kind of reasoning game like playing house. "
The boy's face, which was three points similar to Lin Ye's, showed a gentle and sunny smile. He lowered his body and gave a salute, then turned around and jumped to continue climbing the huge ladder, and gradually became transparent in mid-air within two or three steps. melted and then disappeared.
"What a nuisance."
Qinzi had a bad impression of Lin Zhongjing Asuka, and Lin Ye nodded in agreement.
The nightmare-eating tapir, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Is that the shadow that opposes you? How strange..."
"what happened?"
"That boy didn't have any malice towards you."
The nightmare-eating tapir wondered, "And he doesn't look like such a vicious person."
Although it is just a monster, it may understand "human nature" better than most humans. Even if it just read it once, it can conclude that Asuka Linzhongjing is not a "bad person".
"In a sense, he might really be a good guy..."
Qinzi smiled lightly and didn't explain much.
She beckoned Lin Ye to come forward, and the two climbed up the stairs together. Just as Lin Ye looked at the endless stairs and began to sigh, the giant under his feet trembled slightly, and moved slowly!
"Is it an escalator?" Lin Ye was shocked, "Is it so advanced!"
But in any case, it would be best if he could save a lot of effort, and he was happy to relax.
Looking to the side, Qinzi didn't pay attention to the stairs, but focused on flipping through the photo album in her hand, as if looking for something.
"What are you looking at?"
"Heart."
Qinzi said calmly without raising his head: "Asuki Iki's 'heart', there are still problems that have not been resolved."
Lin Ye nodded and did not continue the discussion. After all, Qinzi must be more "professional" in such matters.
The figures of the two kept rising with the movement of the stairs, and gradually left the Iron City, disappearing into the midair, and the stairs became thinner accordingly.
There is also the steel city at the bottom. When Lin Ye and Qinzi left, the world began to shake slightly.
thump~
thump~
thump~
The huge bell rang slowly, echoing over the entire city.
Hum-hum-!
A large amount of steam was compressed and sprayed out, and the smoke produced by the factory continued to float into the sky, making the world even darker.
dong~dong~
After ringing nineteen times, the bell finally stopped. At the same time, a white "wave" submerged the Iron City at some point.
Hum-hum-!
Amidst the roar of the steam, the steel city was gradually bleached, became transparent, and finally disappeared into a white mist.
And the horrific corpse of that lonely girl was also swallowed up by nothingness...
Chapter 111 Chapter 98: Fantasy Killer Forest Wilderness Version (plus more)
Clang, clang, clang...
The sound of the gears constantly gnashing and colliding came to Lin Ye's ears as the stairs moved slowly. He and Qinzi stood side by side on the stairs, and now they are in the air at an unknown height.
The so-called can't reach the world and can't touch the ground, there is nothing but thin clouds beside you, and a glimpse of the bottomless abyss is dazzling.
In this environment, to be honest, Lin Ye was a little uneasy, but as long as he thought that this was just a projection of the spiritual world, not really above the [-]-meter altitude, he could instantly relax.
However, I don't know where this ladder will extend to. Even if Lin Ye is patient, he becomes bored after a long time, and can't help but move closer to Qin Zi.
Qinzi had already looked through the photo album at this time, and her expression was a little complicated. After Lin Ye came over, she gave him a meaningful look.
"What, what's the matter?" Lin Ye was a little puzzled by her.
"It's nothing, just a little emotional."
Qinzi breathed a sigh of relief, and gently stroked the cover of the album.
"At that time...we defeated the monster possessing Asuka Well, and rescued her who was physically and mentally injured. At that time, we were amazed at her tenacious vitality. But after reading this photo album, I realized what she had gone through to become There will be such a firm will to survive."
She had already committed suicide three times - Qinzi said lightly.
Lin Ye was silent when he heard the words, and somehow wanted to laugh: he seems to be particularly prone to silence recently, especially when it comes to matters related to Asuka Well.
It's not like he hasn't seen blood before, so why did he become sentimental?
In other words, Asuka Ikiji is not someone who jumped out of the cracks in the rocks. Although she disappeared for a while, she has been registered with the police, and Qinzi has specially investigated her, so Lin Ye also knows a little bit about her information. one two.
However, details such as the fact that she committed suicide three times... Lin Ye is not so clear.
"Those bells...why do they start from thirteen to 24?" Qinzi asked, "Have you thought about this problem?"
"...Just tell me the answer directly." Lin Ye said helplessly, "I'm too lazy to guess."
Qinzi chuckled, and the gloomy look on her face disappeared: "Those bells correspond to 'age', which is the life of Asuki Ikiji from 13 to 24 years old."
"So that's the case... Hey, that's not right!"
Lin Ye frowned: "Isn't Asuka only 21 years old this year?"
"Yes, she is indeed 21 - in reality."
Qin Zi's explanation made Lin Ye suddenly realize: "She spent an extra three years in the dream... No, it was a longer period of life!"
The Priestess of God opened the album again, and flipped to the family portrait on the first page.
"This is when Asuka was first born...then one year old, two years old..."
Some of these photos are obviously not taken by people, but a certain scene directly taken from life... It can be understood as the memory of Asuka Well.
And as the photos were opened one by one, Asuka Iki's life was also unfolded in front of Lin Ye.
Before the age of five, the well-behaved and smart Asuki was doted on by his parents;
When I was six years old, I had a particularly real "nightmare" for the first time, Asuki, shivering in her mother's arms;
When I was in elementary school, I was often hospitalized due to physical problems, and was finally judged as a mental illness;
At the age of 13, I cried and blamed myself for the first time because my ability hurt my relatives;
In high school, he was expelled due to a certain incident, and was abandoned by his parents who had endured to the limit;
, the first suicide attempt...
At the age of 19, he had two suicide attempts during this period. After that, he gave up the idea of suicide, worked hard with the goal of "painter", and began to travel around;
At the age of 21, I met Hayase Ura Takuhiko and an unknown monster...
——It can be said that it was the first half of life that was homeless and desolate.
The girl who was tortured to the point of physical and mental breakdown by her own ability committed suicide three times in a row but failed, which ignited hope for life, and even though life was still suffering, she chose to face it bravely.
However, she has not fulfilled her wish, nor found the meaning of life, when she meets a real demon, who shatters her last hope...
To live an ordinary life - such a simple desire is a luxury for her.
Seeing this, Rao Linye was used to seeing all kinds of tragedies, and couldn't help feeling pity.
This kind of feeling like drowning, struggling desperately but can only watch myself slowly sinking, the feeling of being suffocated and gradually paralyzing the brain... really makes people desperate.
"... until the age of 21, the contents of the photos should be what happened in real life."
Qin Zi paused, and continued: "But what happened after that can only be her imagination."
"Imagination?" Lin Ye sighed, "Has she lived in her fantasy for three full years?"
"If it's a very happy fantasy, it's not surprising, after all, reality is so cruel to her."
The corner of Qinzi's mouth curled up with a malicious arc, and he handed the album to Lin Ye.
"Don't you want to see what her 'future fantasy' looks like?"
Lin Ye vaguely sensed something from her smile, but couldn't hold back his curiosity, so he opened the photo album and took a closer look, but he was stunned by the first photo that caught his eye.
Because that was the scene where he hugged the unconscious Asuka after he saved the demon in the shrine.
The text description is also attached very intimately below:
[On this day, I met him]
"..."
Lin Ye took a deep breath, and opened the follow-up photos with a certain awareness.
In the hospital, I brought flowers to visit the forest of Asuka Well;
