Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 1658 Before saving Yu Yuan

Ah Quan raised the hand of the teapot, paused in mid-air, and then poured the tea into the cup.

"It depends on how you define a person." He said without raising his head, "A human being is one who has a heartbeat, blood, life and death? Or is a human being a person who has thinking, memories, joys and sorrows?"

He smiled slightly, and handed the teacup to Lin Sanjiu. "According to the definition of the former, I am no longer human. But in my own opinion, I am human, especially compared with your two friends."

A clockwork in Lin Sanjiu's mind seemed to be tightened suddenly. She took the teacup and stared at Ah Quan. "You—my friend—"

"Yeah, I know where they are."

Ah Quan put one leg on his knee and took a sip of tea. "It's embarrassing to say that the long-haired kid happened to be in my memoir, so I couldn't let him stay here, so when he came to ask me where you were, I gave him a guide. I went to another memoir. Look, I happen to know a place where people can clearly see a footprint stretching into the distance... He followed that footprint in order to find you."

Even knowing that the group of them broke into each other's territory first and that Ah Quan was just responding to a crisis, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but reflexively became angry—like an unreasonable mother.

She had to explain a few words to herself in her mind before holding back her breath and asking: "How long has he been stuck in the memoir? Is he all right? Where did he go? Can you bring him back?"

Strange to say, when the same thing happened to her, she could see it as a development of the situation, out of desperation—after all, for a person living in the doomsday world, turmoil and danger are inevitable; It's like an injustice.

Ah Quan glanced at her a few times, seeming a little surprised by her anger.

"It seems to be a very important friend to you."

"Yes."

Ah Quan put down his teacup, smiled, and said, "Although I don't understand why, you don't have to worry about him. From the perspective of mental stability, compared to you and another guy who is just a human being, that kid is The safest... From another perspective, he is the least safe. Because if you don't find me, I will keep him in the memoir forever."

Lin Sanjiu was stunned when he heard that. "I don't understand you."

Ah Quan took out the magazine from nowhere, opened it and flicked through it for a while.

Lin Sanjiu looked at the third-rate gossip title and the large-scale color pictures of characters on the cover, and vaguely guessed what was going on, and it became more and more unbelievable like a dream—so many memoirs, could it be that this man put all of them in a small magazine? Are you in?

"Here," he tapped the magazine with his fingers, and said, "from this point on... Well, he was not very lucky. Although he knew to avoid the core of triggering memories, he ended up triggering five memoirs in a row. most of them."

Lin Sanjiu's heart tightened, and Ah Quan continued, "However, he wasn't affected at all."

This time, her hesitation took on a different meaning.

"I...I don't understand."

Ah Quan glanced at her and repeated the same meaning again: "It's literally. No matter what memoirs he has experienced, or how many times he has experienced, he has not been affected in the slightest."

It seemed that Lin Sanjiu couldn't think of a suitable sentence except for the blank sentence "I don't understand".

"But, it's impossible," she murmured after a while, her fingers constantly drawing circles on the field pants. "You must know better than me, this is impossible. When the memory is triggered, we 'lived' in the body of the memory owner, accepting and feeling everything about them... Ah, I understand, you are It's not a mistake, it's possible that another friend of mine didn't react because he doesn't have human emotions."

Ah Quan thought about it for a few seconds, and said, "No, I'm sure I'm not mistaken. The one I mentioned who didn't respond was a very beautiful child who couldn't tell the difference between male and female, with hair about this long. He gestured to his chest and asked again: "Do you want to see him? But don't get too close."

Before Lin Sanjiu could reply with "what do you think", he had already turned the magazine over.

Lin Sanjiu has seen countless people, fallen species, object effects or abilities rushing towards her, but this is the first time she has seen a small world rushing towards her—the scene in the large picture on the whole page suddenly appeared. Leaping out of the page, it instantly overwhelmed her like a sea wave and captured her firmly.

Teacher Yi didn't warn her, and she didn't feel any danger. After a moment of distraction, Lin Sanjiu found herself "floating" on a long sandy beach.

There was no sunshine on this day, and there was a gray mist on the sea in the distance. The back of a girl was sitting on the beach that was originally white but was dyed gray by the sky, listening quietly to the sound of the waves hitting the quiet world. ,like a statue.A few water birds with slender legs behind her poked their heads to look for food on the beach.

This feeling is so strange, this is only the first layer she sees - she can see the second layer without turning her head; as if two layers of pictures are stacked on top of each other, with a little willpower filtering out the top layer Afterwards, Ji Shanqing emerged.

He stood on the same stretch of sand where the girl sat, in the egg-blue light and the cloud-like mist.

Ah Quan's voice sounded, the same as before, still a few steps away.

"That girl is the master of the memoir. Logically speaking, your friend should be able to feel all her emotions. There is nothing earth-shattering in the girl's memory... She has always been out of the crowd all her life, and the whole Memories are all gray. Every time I see her memories, I will fall into a faint, indescribable loss and melancholy."

Ji Shanqing's expression had nothing to do with melancholy at all: his brows were tightly frowned, and his expression was as irritable as if he had something urgent to do, but he had to wait patiently to watch a scene he wasn't interested in.

He obviously has a clear grasp of his identity, because Lin Sanjiu is so familiar with his various subtle expressions, and he can even tell that he is counting the time.

"I... I didn't expect that."

When she opened her mouth, her eyes flickered for a moment, and when she took a closer look, Ah Quan had flipped the magazine back.Lin Sanjiu stared blankly at the magazine and said, "The one who is not affected should be Yu Yuan, he has no emotions..."

"Is it another friend of yours?" Ah Quan smiled, "Well, it's another extreme. Since I'm not going to embarrass you, I have to pull him over now, and you have to wake him up quickly. He is immersed It was too deep, and there have been corresponding changes in his physical signs—his breathing has been broken several times."

　I recently entered the detective novel mode, and after reading several Miss Mapp books, I naturally thought of Josephine Tey.I have read her books before, and the one that impressed me the most is "The Daughter of Time", which is amazing and brilliant.But it’s true that everyone has shortcomings. This time, I just read an expensive halo just because of her name. Damn, I didn’t realize it was a romance novel, and it was written very childishly. Love novels... At first I thought the truth was hidden in the details, so I read it more seriously, but later found that more than 50% of the details and characters are all nonsense, and it can't even be called a service for the love line.Bite the bullet and finish watching, feeling insulted...
