Chapter 2397

Lin Sanjiu stood in the dark night, dazed for a moment.

Her ears heard, her eyes saw, and her brain refused to accept.

There seems to be a nerve in the brain, which is beating violently one after another, causing the head to ache; how could the eight-headed virtue be turned into an "identity"?

The last time she heard the word "identity", it was—

As if a drowning person grabbed a lifeline, Lin Sanjiu suddenly raised his head and called out, "Little green crane!"

Fu Xiluo tilted his head slightly, "Huh?"

"The person who becomes the status can also be restored to the original status? He is my friend,"

Lin Sanjiu grabbed Batoude, pulled the numb and heavy body forward, and said: "There is a girl named Little Green Crane, who was once turned into an identity by Occidentus. But she Then he escaped and returned to normal. If you release it immediately-"

In the night, Fu Xiluo still tilted his head and stared at her without moving.

Lin Sanjiu stood still, and for a moment of bewilderment, she didn't dare to look down. If she lowered her head, maybe she would find that there was no ground under her feet, and she was standing in the rising cold sea.

"Release the status status of the Eight-Headed Virtue," she whispered, "Now."

This time, it was no longer a discussion tone.

Fushiro let out a low sigh, raised his hand, and rubbed his face vigorously a few times, as if he was very tired and unwilling to enter the next conversation.

"Sorry, no."

He smiled wryly, and said: "It turns out that the 'identity' of Occidentus can escape and recover? His strength is really worse than I thought."

"What do you mean? Can't you get rid of it?" Lin Sanjiu tried his best to suppress his voice, not to tremble, and asked, "Batoude is my friend. Are you going to tell me that he is a walking dead from now on? "

"It can be lifted," Fu Xiluo lowered his eyelids, and his long eyelashes cast a flickering and fluctuating dark night lake. "...But I won't lift it."

Lin Sanjiu was silent for a few seconds. The nails pierced into the skin of the boxer's heart, and the pain made her want to cry.

"Why?"

"I have developed his ability to the point where even I am a little afraid. If I let him go, he might erase all the effects I have achieved before..." Fu Xiluo raised his hand and scratched his hair, The soft and curly hair fell down, half covering the eyebrows and eyes. He lowered his head and said with a nasal voice, "I finally got you and everyone ready."

Lin Sanjiu's next question was already in her chest, but she was a little afraid to ask; it was as if she was standing in front of a closed door and already had a vague idea of ​​what she would see behind it.

After a while, she finally stretched out her hand and pushed the door open.

"...What do you mean by 'preparation'?"

"Let you and everyone believe that there is still a world above the world." Fuxiluo paused and corrected himself: "No, 'believe' is not accurate. I don't want to simply put You brainwashing... that's not what I want."

"Then what do you want?"

Fu Xiluo smiled slightly as if he was at a loss.

But when he spoke, his voice was calm and without any hesitation.

"I hope you can 'accept' this matter. I hope that after thinking about it, you can accept it, believe it, and bet everything on it in the mood of anticipation, hope, desperation, and no choice. "

After a few seconds, Lin Sanjiu said in a daze, "It's like... just like your mother's mentality when facing it that night."

This is not a question.

Fushiro nodded.

"All of us... How many hours have we listened to the broadcast on the spaceship? Finally reached the state you want?" Lin Sanjiu asked almost blankly.

Fu Xiluo rubbed his shoulders and neck wearily, pressed his hands on his neck, and tilted his head.

"Closer to seven hours?"

She lost seven hours without knowing it? Thinking about it this way, it seems that even the world has become unreal.

"But... I obviously only heard it once, and then I realized it."

After she heard the broadcast, she sent a paper crane call to Ji Shanqing; during the conversation between the two, she sensed that something was wrong, and guessed that the voice behind the broadcast was the voice of Badude... Isn't that the case?

No, no, more than once.

Lin Sanjiu suddenly remembered that when he met Hei Zeji, he was very angry and said, "I can't turn off the radio, it wakes people up again and again."

"It doesn't matter if you realize you've been affected by the broadcast."

Fu Xiluo said softly: "I improved his ability time and time again, allowing him to complete the upgrade road overnight that other people can't complete for decades, so now his ability performance is completely different. Hmm...how should I put it? Let’s use an analogy.”

He let go of his hands from his neck, and spread out his slender, pale fingers in the deep lake-like night.

"It's like..." he looked at his hand and said, "I've made a hand sculpture that's so intricate and beautifully reproduces every detail I need. When you look at it, of course you might You think, it's a sculpture. But that doesn't matter, even if you know it's a sculpture, you still subconsciously get the impression of 'hand'. For me, that's enough."

"Why?" Lin Sanjiu couldn't help it.

He suddenly raised his head, and for a moment, Lin Sanjiu almost suspected that he had been thrown back into that night—the dark night sky opened up, far and wide, as if another world had opened its eyes and was looking at her coldly.

"In the first few years after my evolution, I thought of many ways, and I tried countless methods to find the world above the world again."

Fu Xiluo looked at Lin Sanjiu without blinking, and said in a low voice.

She didn't know what had changed, but Lin Sanjiu began to feel it slowly—the kind of inability to stand up, unable to look at each other, and unable to look away when facing Occidentus, like suffocation. hopeless.

No, far more intense and airtight than back then... Fuxiluo didn't even have any hostility.

"I am still standing here today, naturally because all my past attempts have failed."

Fuxiluo's hand slowly slipped down from the night, and fell back into the shadows silently.

"If I can't go to the 'world above the world', I don't know what meaning is left in this life. Everything I have to do to survive is cumbersome and boring, and everyone I meet in the doomsday is disgusting. When I was so disappointed that I didn't even have the strength to stand up from the ground, I finally decided to create the 'Lord Li' and hand over my body to him."

His eyes lingered on Lin Sanjiu, and he suddenly broke into a smile.

"Fortunately, God has treated me well. When I woke up, I suddenly found that the people who appeared next to me this time were different..." He thought for a while and said, "You, Kurosawa, Yuan Xiangxi, Bohemia...and everyone on board, are very warm and clean."

Fu Xiluo bent his eyes, smiled sincerely and said, "I like you very much. I like you the most, Xiaojiu."

Just like a child, without the slightest shyness or worry, he will speak out his likes frankly.

"you listen to me,"

Lin Sanjiu's heart suddenly moved, as if a little strength was infused by this sentence, and he was able to move and speak again. "You want to find the 'world above the world', no problem, we will accompany you to find it. The end of the world is so big, there are always places you haven't been to, clues you haven't found. Your mother was just protecting you that night, You—you are probably just hallucinating. What awaits us in the future, the 'world above the world', may be something you have never imagined..."

Fushiro sighed hoarsely, and lowered his eyelashes again.

"Don't you believe what I've seen?" he whispered. "That's no wonder, you have never seen the world in the crack of the sky."

"You were devastated and traumatized at the time, and your mother—"

"Well, I know." Fu Xiluo replied almost wearily, with a heavy nasal voice. "I'm not twelve years old anymore. I've thought about it. Maybe the original motive of her remark was that she didn't want me to look back."

Lin Sanjiu looked at him blankly.

"But her initial motive is irrelevant." Fu Xiluo whispered, "Because she didn't expect that she happened to meet the most important conditions, so that the world above the world opened in front of me."

Lin Sanjiu didn't understand for a while. "……condition?"

Fu Xiluo turned his head away suddenly, and slowly stepped back a few steps. When he stopped, he happened to be standing in the shadow of a dark cloud. "Didn't you ask me, what method will I use to go to the world above the world?"

Lin Sanjiu looked at the silhouette of the figure who was far away from her, and then looked back at Exodus under the night.

"When I woke up and saw you, I finally understood why my previous attempts failed."

Fuxiluo raised his head and looked at the night sky. The wind frizzed his hair, like willow branches swaying on the lake. "To make the 'world above the world' open in front of me again, I need to meet some specific conditions, so that the situation of that night can be reproduced."

From her throat, which seemed to have been anesthetized, she was able to squeeze out a sentence: "...What conditions?"

"One, my birthday night.

"Second, I want someone important, just like Dang Ye's mother, who also accepted and believed in the 'world above the world'."

Fushiro slowly opened his arms, allowing the wind to billow his oversized jacket, and for a moment it looked as if he was about to ride the wind.

"Three, people who are important to me died not far from me."

Ah, I finally wrote this step! Well, so Fu Xiluo is actually a villain, and a villain who suffered from a severe trauma in his childhood and became paranoid and obsessed (?)... In fact, the foreshadowing was laid in 2383. Lin Sanjiu said in that chapter, I always believe in the world above the world (Kurozawa Ji is also in that chapter). But maybe my foreshadowing is like the silver buried by my ancestors, it is too deep, and no one has found it until now (
