The Trickster's Ninth Episode

It's like if one day you hear a person talking about magic, continents, calendars, dynasties, or even half-spoken words, your first reaction must not be that the other person is a time traveler, but that this person probably has a second disease, or It's a punishment game or a variety show reality show.

Options that are too outrageous will be automatically ignored by the brain. Even if you are a deep ACG fan and have read a lot of online novels, as long as you haven’t become a bewildered person, you will definitely not compare the surreal content with your daily encounters of.

The same goes for Futaba, as long as she is a normal person, the conversation between Ren Amamiya and Yusuke Ryuji will sound like a strange speech from the three radio systems.

But now it seems that Futaba should have played the game "Persona" by himself.

From the very beginning, no one stipulated that you have to watch Ren Amamiya live to restore your memory, right?The relevant characters only need to [see], and of course playing by yourself is also a way... It's just that most members of the Phantom Thieves don't have much contact with the game.

And Futaba is the only one among this group of people who might recover his memory by playing games by himself without the intervention of Umiya Ren.

At the same time, because Futaba is usually much more idle than Ren Amamiya, her game progress does not need to be restricted by the live broadcast, and she likes to stay up late, so her progress can be much, much faster than Ren Amamiya.

So it is possible for Futaba to fly to Chapter 4 at high speed.

After thinking about this, Ren Amamiya turned her head to look at Futaba, planning to say something.

As soon as he turned his head, Amamiya Ren was taken aback, his sight was completely occupied by a huge Fuwa headgear.

After reacting for a second, Yu Gonglian was a little dumbfounded.

This Fuwa headgear can be regarded as Futaba's self-defense mechanism. When she has a social panic attack and doesn't want to see people but can't see them, she will wear this headgear to isolate herself.

It is the same thing as Minato Akua's cap with the female horns.

Originally, Ren Amamiya wanted to start the topic with some opening remarks as plainly as possible, but Futaba's reaction made him not know how to start for a while.

correct!Assuming that Futaba really restored her memory because she played games and quickly moved the progress to Chapter 4, then judging by her more excited reaction now, it should not be too long before she recovered her memory. Amamiya Ren guessed that From last night to this morning.

Then this leads to a problem. If it is said that the recovery of memory caused Futaba's low mood, it also means that Futaba was already in this state when Sojiro took his family out to play this morning.

Futaba was already very housebound, and with the fact that she was in a bad mood at the time, her desire not to go out should have been two to three times that of usual. At that moment, if Futaba was unwilling, Sojiro might not be able to do anything about it even if she dragged her. Drag her out of the house.

So why did Futaba agree to hang out together?

It can't be to change the mood, the best way for Yinjiao to change the mood is to find a place where no people will be seen for entertainment.

Based on the situation she currently has, Ren Amamiya brought herself into Futaba to think, what would he care about first after recovering his memory?

...That's right, it's Aunt Wakaba!

Compared with the previous weeks, the most special feature of the ninth week is that the reset time of the ninth week is very forward.

Prior to this, every reincarnation started from the first night when Ren Amamiya came to LeBron-that is, the node when he first entered the velvet room.

This also means that in the past Zhoumu, Yishi Ruoye has always been in a state of death.

Unlike Fang Zexia's situation, Fang Zexia encountered a car accident in March, very close to the start of reincarnation. According to Yasen, although Amamery Ren could not reach the time before [myself] coordinates, but It's okay to do some tricks.The most important thing is that the car accident, which has a low probability, is caused by the dispute between the Fangze sisters, so it can be regarded as "something that will never happen if you take a wrong step", and it is relatively simple to start.

But Isshiki Wakaba was dehumanized when she was in Futaba junior high school, that is to say, at least one to two years ago, and Isshiki Wakaba's accident was "murdered", the reason for being targeted was Isshiki Wakaba's research In other words, this is something that almost inevitably happens under the accumulation of many factors.If you want to modify the occurrence of this incident, in the words of Steins;Gate, the timeline needs to jump from 1 to 2.

Therefore, the thing that shakes Futaba the most after recovering her memory is the resurrection of her mother.

"Futaba, take this thing off," said Umiya Ren.

"No, don't." Futaba's voice came from the inside of Fuwa's headgear, in a low voice.

"obedient."

"Yes, it doesn't matter if you have something to say directly, right?" Futaba said as if evading.

But Ren Amamiya didn't just give a verbal announcement, Futaba's attitude was not very firm, so the Fuwa's headgear was easily taken off by Ren Amamiya.

After the protective equipment was taken away, Futaba's gaze began to evade, not daring to look directly at Ren Amameiya.

However, this state didn't last long, and her face was fixed by Amamiya Ren with both hands.

Eyes were forced to meet, Futaba was surprised by Ren Amamiya's sudden strength and seriousness.

"That...Lian, you...what's the matter with you? You seem a little strange today?" Futaba was talking, her voice twisted slightly involuntarily.

Ren Amamiya looked at Futaba's eyes, and he was finally able to see clearly at a close distance. Futaba's eye sockets were a little red, but this level of change was covered by her slight dark circles, so it can't be seen under normal circumstances. .

"Futaba, it's hard to be patient, isn't it?" Umiya Ren said.

Hearing this, Futaba was stunned suddenly, she stopped dodging her eyes, and looked at Amame Ren with some surprise, her hands were unconsciously drawn in front of her, she clenched her fists, and her nails dug into her palms.She had the urge to curl up. If it was normal, she would have thrown herself on her bed and buried her face.

Then... after burying it... No matter what the expression is, no one can see it. Even if you want to cry, the tears will be sucked away by the pillow.

"Let's talk about it first...my current state...can't become navi...I'm...only going to be a hindrance..." Futaba threw herself on Umiya Ren, clutching his clothes tightly with both hands.

"It doesn't matter, I can't become a Joker now, everyone is the same, so I won't laugh at you." Amamiya Ren said softly.

"..." Futaba was silent for a while, and then spoke again maintaining the status quo. "Lian, I feel so strange right now."

"Mom... Mom she's still... right in front of me, but I'm so weird. I want to hold my mother and cry, I want... I want to tell I have been working very hard for her, I...I miss her so much...but...but I don't want her to know, I don't want her to know anything... ..”

"I understand, I understand." Ren Amamiya took half a step back, looked into Futaba's eyes and stared at her again, and at the same time wiped away the tears that fell down with her hands. "So, how about we make a deal?"

"...Is it the same as the previous promise note?"

"Yeah." Yu Gonglian said with a smile. "Unbeknownst to Aunt Ruoye, Futaba unilaterally made an agreement with her mother."

"Futaba, no matter what, today's achievements are the result of our joint efforts. So now, whether you want to act like a baby with your mother, or want to talk to your mother, no one will blame you."

"However, whether Auntie Wakaba should be informed, I think that in addition to your thoughts, you also need to consider Sojiro's decision. Is that right? Sojiro has always been in pain, and has always supported you and us family. So if you feel embarrassed about this matter, I think he will support you and help you as before."

"You can vent as much as you like here with me. After you calm down, let's talk together, okay?"

"...um..." Futaba pursed her lips in response.

Taking two deep breaths, Futaba reached out to wipe away her tears, and forced a smile.

"As expected, it's Lian... It's easy to solve the matter that I don't know what to do at all."

After calming down a little, Futaba now regained the ability to think normally.

"Well... before talking about Sojirou and mother, I... just wanted to be self-willed on a whim, is that okay?" Futaba grabbed Ren Amamiya's clothes again and asked Her tone was very weak, but it was clear that she had a high probability of holding the idea that Amamiya Ren would not let go if she disagreed.

"Of course." Although she didn't know what it was, of course, Amamiya Ren would not disagree with this situation.

"You said, [you can continue to act even if you are separated from Lian], it's okay to not implement it according to my mood, right?"

This agreement was the only one that was not completed in the [Agreement Notes] that Futaba made in order to get rid of social terror.

"You, you, you, you haven't forgotten it!" After a pause for half a second, Futaba's tone suddenly became tense.

"Don't worry, I still remember this agreement." Futaba's reaction made Umiyaren feel a little funny and helpless, and quickly comforted her.

"That, that's good." Futaba seemed to heave a sigh of relief.

"I know, Lian, you seem to...don't remember many things from the past, and I don't know which parts you can still remember. But...but...but last time I couldn't find you all the time..."

"..." Yu Gonglian's mood suddenly became heavy.

The last time, that is, the eighth week, Amameiya Ren did not appear in front of her companions from the beginning to the end.

From forced amnesia, to regaining memory, to looking for Umiya Ren, to changing her mind.During this process, Futaba and the others didn't even see Ren Amamiya.

Navi, the code name, means Navigator.

Futaba, who bears this name, may be the one among the members of the Phantom Thieves who most regards finding Ren Amamiya as his own responsibility, and who most wants to find Ren Amamiya.

"Sorry..." Even if she didn't remember, Amamiya Ren was full of apology at the moment.No, perhaps, it is because I don't remember that this apology is so strong.

"No need to apologize."

"Although I thought about it at the beginning, if I find you, I want to accuse you severely, or I must get angry once, and I can't forgive you easily."

"But...I don't know why now, I'm not angry at all."

Futaba raised her head and looked into Ren Amamiya's eyes. She had never been good at communicating, so that her words to express her feelings seemed so simple, even clumsy.

She couldn't tell why, and she couldn't tell what it was like?She only knows how to briefly describe her current mood, but it doesn't matter, because she knows that Yu Gonglian will definitely understand.Understand why she is the way she is now, and why she feels this way.

Umiya Ren can see both the feelings she can understand and the feelings she can't understand.

"[You can continue to act even if you are separated from Lian] This agreement does not need to be fulfilled."

"Correspondingly, if you want to get closer and be with Lian, that's also allowed, right?"

"So! So... Even with the share from last time, and with those owed to me before, I don't want to let Lian go now."

"Can I... come a little closer?"

"This is...girlfriend privilege...so...let me hold on for a while..."

Chapter 150 The Real Mind Hacker

Umiya Ren stayed with Futaba until she regained her composure.

"So, at the beginning, you didn't know that things would turn out like this?"

"Ah."

Futaba nodded. When they changed their minds for Ren Amamiya, they had no idea that time would go back so many years, and they didn't even know that this behavior would cause the world to reset.

So even if she recovered her memory and returned to a psychologically mature state, the fact that her mother was resurrected still had a big impact on Futaba.

The ups and downs experienced by Ryuji Sakamoto is that the track and field club abolished the club because of himself, so there would not be such a big reaction.

But when it came to this, Kitagawa Yusuke's mother was also separated from the fate that should have died of illness, and he didn't seem to have any reaction.However, according to Kitagawa Yusuke's personality, he probably stabilized his emotions quickly, and then hid the subsequent turmoil in his heart, and would not bring it out.

In addition, Okumura Haru's father, Okumura Kuniwa, was killed after [resetting the coordinates], so his fate was reversed a long time ago... No, because of the existence of Amamiya Ren, it should be from the very beginning That accident will not happen.In the same way, the same is true for Apricot Takamaki and Shiho Suzui.

There is also Niijima's father who died in the line of duty. I am afraid that Niijima will feel very confused after recalling some fragmented memories, and there is also an element of his father still in it.

Thinking about it carefully, although no relatives died in those things that Yu Gonglian encountered, if implemented, it can also be regarded as [disqualification in the world], and no one will lose to anyone.

In such a comparison, Ryuji Sakamoto does not feel so miserable.Long Si, you are so weak!

But it’s a good thing if it’s not miserable, isn’t it?

"Well, Ren, by the way, how should I tell Sojiro about this kind of thing?" After Futaba came back to her senses, she found that there seemed to be a difficult matter on her head.

"Actually, I've been thinking about talking to the boss about me recently...but I still have to let him recover his memory first!" Amamiya Ren and Futaba said in distress together. "But at present, I only know how to restore the memory of the companions of the Phantom Thieves, or how to restore the memory of the person who has awakened the persona. Ordinary people like Boss Sojiro have no idea how to restore their memories. .”

To restore the memory of the Persona, just let them see the image in their hearts, and then they can have a stress response and spontaneously retrieve the past memories.

In this process, what plays a decisive role is that they themselves are the holders of ideal power, and they are not ordinary superpowers, they are very strong.

Their state of amnesia is like someone applying a seal to them very well, and then making them forget the existence of the seal.They didn't come out because they didn't know that when they realized that something was wrong with the seal, they only needed a little force to break free from it.

But people like Sakura Sojiro, Kawakami Sadayo, etc., are ordinary people without strength, not to mention that they themselves don't know the existence of the seal, even if they know, they don't have the ability to break free.

...Are they supposed to learn cognitive geography?
