white night syndrome

Chapter 188 156. Running at both ends is really hard work

"The gods we believe in can actually revoke the wishes we made, but not only will they take away what was originally given, but they will also charge a corresponding amount of interest."

Otozaki showed an incredulous expression, and his tone was full of disbelief.

"So... what is the future?" Li Ming pursed his lips, taking the answers to the questions is what he has been doing all along, hoping that Yin Qi will not find out.

"Ha... there is no definite future of the world, countless times and spaces are intertwined and then separated, and we just share the same set of laws." After Suzuki Otozaki said this, he looked at the ceiling and thought for a while, "If you have to say , the teaching that the past is immutable and that the future is the sum total of the options we seem to have."

"The future...has been sacrificed." Li Ming pursed his lips, sighed, and said in as calm a tone as possible.

"is that a lie?"

She sneered, but her expression quickly froze.

Otozaki stretched out his hand to take out the cigarette case, only to realize that he was wearing a hospital gown, and his personal belongings had already been confiscated.

"When did it happen? Who did it? The specifics at the time—ha...forget it, it's crazy."

"However, according to the information I have received... the future can still be redeemed." Li Ming paused, looking at the woman in front of him with a dull expression.

He was going to continue talking, but at this moment, she made a trick, she wanted Suzuki Otozaki to speak out her thoughts.

"Ha... Although under the banner of being able to make a wish, most of my father and the others ask the sculptures to find some feasible methods in the world." Otozaki said to himself, "Also, it is not so cheap to revoke a wish , there is no good thing that does not have to pay a price.”

"Before, there was an idiot who sacrificed his family property to make a wish to allow his paralyzed legs to walk. After he made the wish and regretted it, Dao Ross also took away his leg tissue, and the family property came back... It's really gratifying Congratulations."

The sentence at the end sounded a bit sarcastic, and Otozaki continued to talk about his views and what he had seen and heard in a mocking tone.

"The essence of the ceremony is exchange. What do you think is as important as the right to choose? The possibility of everyone? Although there is a saying-their research on this aspect at the time was as crazy as the research on figures in a dead house."

Otozaki bit his fingernails and smiled mockingly.

"Who knows what that is."

During the exchange, Yuan Qingyu appeared by the door of the ward holding the brim of his hat, and he knocked on the wooden door gently, making a crisp sound, which seemed particularly abrupt in this quiet environment.

"Mr. Li Ming...your visiting time will end in 10 minutes. I hope you can abide by the rules and let our victim... the perpetrator, Ms. Suzuki Otozaki, have a good rest."

"Can you tell me more about the Holy Light?"

Li Ming gestured "OK" to Yuan Qingyu, then turned around and asked the woman who had been sitting on the hard chair.

"Or, you can also tell me about the details of the operation of the Holy Light... Can you remember anything else?"

"The only things I can think of are hard objects like metal or gemstones that can carry the breath of time and space, and can be used to locate sculptures. At that time, most of us used that sculpture in this way."

Yin Qi took a deep breath, rested her head on the hard chair and closed her eyes, as if communicating with Li Ming had already spent most of her strength.

Seeing this, Li Ming carefully considered the balance and pros and cons in her heart, said goodbye to Yin Qi, and left the lounge arranged for her by the Metropolitan Police Department.

"Have you found anything?"

Yuan Qingyu was still holding on to the brim of his hat, as if a gust of wind would blow his police hat away all the time.

"The situation is very complicated. By the way, can you provide more information about this abandoned Baimeng resource?" Li Ming pursed his lips, watching Yuan Qingyu close and lock the wooden door, "I feel that if I want to leave And cracking white dreams will cost a lot."

"Ah... is it so serious? But I'm sorry that I don't know much about it. I only know that this white dream was constructed by the director of Ishioka District, Ibaraki Prefecture. What's wrong?" Yuan Qingyu narrowed his eyes and recalled road.

"No..." Li Ming hesitated to speak.

Just as the atmosphere was getting serious, a message popped up on the conversation page of Li Ming's mobile chat software, the profile picture was a standard anonymous profile picture.

"If you want to see the living researcher Tsukishima Masaki again, come here immediately."

After the information, the coordinates are attached, which is the park where the severed hand was found, which is near a corner of the New World Lake.

Tsukishima Masaki...

Although he had never heard of this name before, but it was followed by the word researcher, Li Ming soon realized which Moon Island it was, and it happened that he wanted to discuss some issues in the basement of the theater with him. opportunity.

It's just incomprehensible...why are these people always being targeted?

Either disappear or be killed.

After saying goodbye to Yuan Qingyu, Li Ming hurried to the scene.

Three o'clock in the afternoon is the hottest time, and the sun is gradually covered by clouds. It seems that the night is either cloudy or rainy.

After arriving at the designated place, the young man noticed that there seemed to be something dark in the grass where the severed limb was found, like a walkie-talkie.

"This is...?" Li Ming muttered to himself.

"It sounds like it's Li Mingzai... It's so strange, I obviously sent messages to other people, why haven't they arrived yet?"

The voice on the other end of the walkie-talkie definitely sounded like the netizen Yuedao on the Internet.

"Okay, let's get back to business. I'm sorry to contact you like this. It's to avoid attracting other followers. I finally got rid of them. I'm thinking about others, whether I should give my life, this matter also Not too easy, is it?"

"I can't just die in vain like this. There must be another way. I found another way out with such a mood, but how much do you know about sacrifices so far?"

Li Ming narrowed his eyes: "Except for your life experience, I know everything else, and I just wanted to ask you some questions, but now it seems... It's not a face-to-face conversation, I can't believe what you said is right or wrong .”

"Should it be said that it is indeed Li Ming?" A joking voice mixed with laughter came from Yuedao, he waited for a while, and then said, "It's really rare and serious."

He coughed a few times and became serious.

"I haven't studied the papers over there completely. The output of the two of them and the team for several years is not so easy to surpass. Based on Herman's conjecture and what happened back then, I made a series of verify."

"Summon directly to Daolos and let him decide how to destroy the wish gains. Even if there is no recorded proof, this is not unfeasible, because the part that is taken away includes those recorded proofs."

"To put it simply, make a wish to Daulos "Please make the previous exchange untenable", and then send the impact of that exchange on the world, theoretically it is established. "

Is this the second method?

"In order to ensure the probability of success as much as possible, I need to know the result without conducting experiments, which is almost impossible, but I got that statue..." Yue Dao's voice became excited again.

"The statue doesn't guarantee which slice of the world to see, but it doesn't matter, because of this, I do see things as expected."

"Summon, then eliminate, everyone on this route will have a stable future."

Before the incident ended, the measures Li Ming took to escape this white dream were nothing more than following the advice of these people.

No, it should not be obedience, to be precise, obedience.

It is obedience out of desperation.

After a few perfunctory words to Tsukishima, the two hit it off.

It was getting late, and before the setting sun set behind the western mountain, Li Ming came to Mr. Shenmuzhisuke's villa as promised.

Now to be precise, both sides are executing it, it’s not that he is arguing on both sides, it’s just that he wants to see what the final outcome of these two lines will be. While these desires are surging, he is also thinking about the dean. What do you want to express behind this white dream.

This is a two-storey single-family villa, located on the edge of the suburban villa area, a whole garden away from other small buildings.

Only one light was turned on inside at night, and it looked a little spooky.

Entering the door is spacious, the wall of the living room is hung with the photo frame of the previous owner, and there is a glass greenhouse across the hall, next to the entrance of the wine cellar.

The wine cellar has been cleaned up a lot, the traces of the magic circle on the ground are clearly visible, and there is a stone engraved with a star on the newly moved small table.

"I think... Li Ming, you should be an insider. Please allow me to introduce you again, explaining the truth about the sacrifice and the current situation, about what happened 13 years ago, and what we are about to do."

"What happens next may shake your perception of the world. If you feel uncomfortable, you can quit at any time. You can choose to help me chant spells, control the monsters that are about to be summoned, or you can pay attention near the door. prevent emergencies."

"After the preparations, we can start. It is said that this creature is very cunning. Try to avoid close contact with him for a long time. After the summoning circle is activated, it will most likely appear in this house to control the effect of the spell. , it will take some time, that’s all.”

Li Ming nodded, Shenmu turned off the small desk lamp on the low table, leaving only the dim light of the wall lamp in the wine cellar.

He gestured for the last time to get ready, and then stood beside the newly repaired magic circle.

Everything was ready, and as the profane and inimitable syllables appeared in this space, Fazheng became abnormal as if inspired, and the atmosphere permeating the air made people feel uncomfortable.

After some barely audible light noises, dark, brutish, creepy monsters spread their wings in this basement.

The young man saw the shadow it cast on the ground, and the shadow fled so fast that he couldn't tell how many individuals there were in Dao Ti for a moment, and some of them went into the darkness.

Those are evil creatures that absolutely do not belong to this world. They have a whale-like smooth and oily skin, a pair of nasty sharp horns bent inwards, and its wings are like bats, but they cannot hear the sound of flapping wings. The claws are ugly, but good for grabbing objects.

Watching that barbed tail, whipping back and forth like a whip, was just upsetting for some reason.

And the most disgusting thing is that they don't talk or smile, they can't even smile, because they don't have a face to smile at all, and there is only a blank space like a face where a face should be.

"Damn it."

Li Ming raised his hand to resist, but how can a human beat a monster.

The white dream is almost over.

I won't go into details about the specific matters.

The battle situation was stable, and the spell to control the night-gaunt also took effect. He swayed down, exhausted his last bit of strength, his body was face down, and an unpleasant smell spread throughout the basement.

After the battle, Shenmu heaved a sigh of relief, took out a ring from his pocket and handed it to Li Ming.

"This ring is related to the incident that year, so you should keep it safe, preferably close to you. It will be of great use after the incident is over."

Li Ming took the ring, stuffed it into his pocket unceremoniously, and after relaxing in the room for a while, he bid farewell to Shenmu and left the villa.

Running at both ends is really... very hard work.

He is going to Tsukishima now.

Come to the place arranged by Tsukishima, accept Tsukishima's proposal and ask to meet him.

After the meeting, Yue Dao didn't talk nonsense, and directly handed over the statue on his back to the young man in front of him.

"Is this the statue of Dauros?"

Li Ming stretched out a hand cautiously and tentatively, and touched the statue in front of him.

At that moment, he saw the future of this world...

There is a high probability that some fragments of the picture flash back to the future and are taken away in a haze, but there still seems to be a glimmer of hope.

If you look at the world of reverse wishing...

Business as usual, the future is preserved.

Hold the ring tightly and look to another world...

It was a list that was published, and identities and other personal information were posted on the Internet for random viewing.

The young man saw that some people had to stay away from the city in order to conceal their identities. He also saw the stern army and the cohesive high-level——

From the perspective of his world, it is hard to say whether it is a good thing or a bad thing. There are many people who genuinely laugh on the street, and there are also people who are forced to cry in front of the camera.

He even saw someone dressed in the same clothes as An Dingyan in this world, and he was responding to public opinion——

"Some citizens recently suggested to conceal the results of genetic screening, and the high-level officials need to be responsible for the public, so they should consider it carefully..."

In addition, he saw an old news that the only son of a researcher named Yue Dao disappeared. It was the day before the child's graduation field trip. On the day of the field trip, the bus lost control and sank into the bottom of the river. No one survived, including the driver.
