old dream

In the end what happened.

Why did you stumble and follow back.

In the new room of the investigation department dormitory, the petite doll duck was sitting on the carpet, with a slightly perplexed expression on his face.

Colin looked at the weird scene in front of him, and couldn't help holding his forehead with a headache.

Although I don't know what happened behind the scenes of the Grand Theater, since the Grand Duke's people are looking for this doll, it is always right to arrest it and investigate it.

The question is whether to let the investigation department know of its existence.

No, why did I let it follow me all the way here even though I haven't made a decision yet?

Colin found that his mind was in a mess, and he seemed to be sleepwalking all the way.

But the puppet didn't seem to notice his distress, or didn't care if it did.She just lowered her eyes and quietly looked at a small piece of ground in front of her legs.

Colin was thinking desperately while ruffling his hair with one hand.Then he caught a glimpse of the puppet's movement by accident, and suddenly felt quite familiar, so he couldn't help but stop again.

He had seen this kind of quiet waiting.

When he first explored the frequency half a year ago, he "saw" his teacher and sensed the existence of Boyd Ives.

She was also like that at that time, sitting on the head of the bed with her legs crossed without saying a word, or she had been in the past ten years.In fact, she also experienced everything with her, but she was not seen by anyone.

By the way, is this really a doll?Isn't the gimmick of the Grand Theater a hoax?

Does it have consciousness then?

Questions popped up in Colin's mind.Out of curiosity, he stuck out a finger and poked its cheek, which was cold to the touch, but otherwise alive. "Lydia" looked up at him, approaching the midnight room, her red sapphire eyes seemed to be full of light.

According to the setting in the story, Lydia was originally a dancing girl in tulle in the Near East of Otu.Therefore, the doll has black wave hair with exotic and mysterious temperament, which hangs like a waterfall all the way to the waist.

Perhaps the ancient people were generally precocious, and her age was only about fourteen or fifteen years old.From the face of the doll, there is no characteristic of the Otu nationality.And the degree of simulation of that face - even if you get close, you have to stare at it for more than ten seconds to feel a little bit of discord, but it is not so much a man-made fake as it is an illusion.

Because in this turbid world, it is impossible to breed such a pure creature.

Especially those ruby ​​eyes.

This was not Earl Fried's mistake, on the contrary, he did it on purpose, because in the opera script, the author used this metaphor to describe Lydia.

Colin had a weird feeling, not because of her face and eyes.Instead, the moment he poked the puppet's cheek, he felt as if he had been touched.

Although it was only a slight illusion, and it was fleeting.

I really can't raise my guard against this puppet, so I allow it to follow.And even if I keep staring like this, I will not feel shy or afraid of offending the other party like I would when facing a stranger.

"Lydia" is not any myth or folklore, but a long poem by a poet.From the perspective of the plot, the role of Lydia is obviously the reflection of the mirror image of "Su" in the human spiritual world, symbolizing the vitality that is too abundant and harmful.

It was placed on the stage as an idol—or on the altar, and was worshiped as Lydia for a long time, and it became activated over time.This is not so uncommon, and is why iconoclasm was practiced in the ancient world.The worshiped statue provides the precondition for the same god to descend, just as Boyd Ives did for the puppet.

But is this really coming?Colin closed his eyes to feel his deep consciousness, and could faintly feel that the pale goddess hadn't left.It is just controlling the puppet remotely, and even this control is carried out through Ke Lin as the medium.

On the contrary, this shows that He does not intend to devour Colin's consciousness.Whether it is impossible to do it, or it was not intended from the beginning.

Colin sighed, got up and went to find his regular first aid kit.There are simple wound suturing and bandaging tools inside.The hideous wound on the puppet's leg was still exposed to the air. He didn't know how to repair such an exquisite creation, but there was nothing wrong with keeping the opening closed for the time being.

It was a very serious penetrating injury, exposing Lydia's wet artificial muscles, and even the bones could be seen.Colin paid attention and found that the bones were made of a light alloy, so there was no damage.He squatted down and began to clean and suture the wound.

During each stitch, the puppet didn't seem to feel any pain, and just looked down at Colin's movements curiously.

Half an hour later, Colin tightened the bandage on the doll's right leg, and the edge of the bandage and the skin was pulled down a little bit, like wearing white leggings, but it didn't affect the appearance.

After doing all this, he began to feel drowsy.

Ke Lin looked at the doll's dirty body again, only to find that she was still wearing the "cool" costume.Although the young figure is still very petite, the snow-white skin is looming under the tulle.The puppet is not aware of this, and the dirt on her body doesn't seem to make her sad, just like a newborn baby.

Ke Lin's forehead was aching again, and he didn't know whether the headache was caused by the inconvenience of life in the future, or because his body was too tired now.

In any case, it is better to let Bod Ives torment this "body" than to let her torment herself.

At least I won't wake up sleepwalking in the middle of the night every day, and I can get a normal rest.

While thinking dimly, Colin walked towards the bed in a daze, and fell asleep immediately.

…………

…………

Although he has regained his memory and completed the mental integration with "Colin" on the Senal battlefield, the experiences of those years have not been well digested——

It's not that I can't recall it, but it seems to belong to another person.

If Colin didn't try to think about them, they wouldn't float by themselves, and the past wouldn't appear in his dreams.

Although the context between several major events has been grasped, many details are still fragmented.This is also unusual, even if a person has not experienced the memory seal, it may be difficult to fully recall the past.

But the subtle relationship with the pale goddess, the "teacher", cannot be grasped only through major events.

So every now and then, Colin starts to actively recall those deeper details and people.It's like reading the experiences of a stranger, trying to draw more memories along the lines that are not obvious.

Before Bond Ives was summoned to this world, he spent most of his time in that sulfur-smelling village...

Besides learning messy things, what else have you experienced?
