【L月L】Inquisitor

Many years later, when Ye Shenyue woke up from the nightmare for the countless times, he could always think of what B said to him that day.Strangely, in the dream, he could clearly see B's changing mouth shape, but couldn't hear his voice.

But he still knows that B is telling him, "You'll regret it."

Warehouse fans behind them whirled incessantly, in a never-ending attempt to shut off the light sources before allowing them to escape through the gap.He found it interesting and just stared at it.Then fell into darkness in an instant, which was a precursor to waking up.When he opened his eyes, it was about to be a new day.

These memories were always the freshest, and they tossed and turned in his mind, active in the hippocampus, which he attributed to his nightmares.This symptom had also occurred frequently before, especially during the first few years of his rebirth.Old memories are always replaced, and innocuous events are erased bit by bit in the brain. This is a normal phenomenon. It is impossible for a person to remember everything in his life, let alone he has already gone around in this maze. Go around dozens of times.But the most frightening thing is that with the passage of time, ordinary memories take up too much space, and they turned defeat into victory, occupying the unforgettable site.It's like the fog rising from the sea, getting thicker and thicker, making people lose their way.The most direct consequence of this is the loss of emotion and an increasingly numb mentality. This is another thing that Ye Shenyue has been fighting for in addition to fate.

So when he saw Sayu died in front of him again, apart from his sadness, he also had a common numbness.He sat and thought on the chair in the kitchen until the last ray of the sun disappeared at the end of the sky, the room became pitch black, with no light at all, and his legs were numb from sitting and lying down for too long.

Ye Shenyue finally figured out one thing - the time has passed.

It seems like everything is going to be easier once you figure it out, but that's just an illusion.Although the problem can be solved by pressing a call button, it still took him 10 minutes to dial the number in L's mobile phone.His finger moved away from the green icon and put it back again, as if caressing a lover.Then he dialed the phone, and the words in the call jumped on the screen for a moment, and he hung up the phone.Ye Shenyue started to laugh at her behavior from the bottom of her heart. She hesitated for 10 to [-] minutes, but hung up the first time she got connected. She was as childish as a child who refused to bow her head and admit her mistake.

Fortunately, L knows Ye Shenyue better than he knows himself. He has already understood Ye Shenyue's behavior during the past month of imprisonment. This kind of childish arrogance in details has become the truest portrayal of Ye Shenyue herself.Whether it is the snacks that Ye Shenyue deliberately threw away or the powerful stain-removing toothpaste that was secretly replaced in the bathroom, it is a manifestation of his bad personality.Although L admits that he is nothing compared to Ye Shenyue's character, he is still qualified to mock Ye Shenyue.Because the toothpaste tasted so bad that he wanted to kill him, he looked it over and over for a long time before he was sure that it was toothpaste and not shoe polish.But in the end L didn't do that, he just secretly changed the original toothpaste back.As a result, when he woke up the next morning, everything was back to square one, with a brand new tube of stain-removing toothpaste standing proudly on the frame.

"Protect your teeth and care for others," Ye Shenyue said.

Now L has slightly modified this sentence and re-given it to Ye Shenyue sitting on the chair.

"Reject second-hand smoke and care for others."

Although this was the first time L came to Yeshen's house, L already knew the structure of the whole house well, and he had already obtained the architectural drawings in order to install the monitor.However, when you come to the real thing, you still feel the difference from your imagination.The exterior of the house does not look any different from other Japanese houses. It is a low-key two-story independent house with a small space. This is the most euphemistic evaluation that L can give. If it is based on the size standard of his own manor in London By any measure, it is simply "little scary".The entrance is the entrance, and the shoes are neatly stacked in the shoe cabinet on the left.Facing him was the stairs, and the room on the left of the second floor was Ye Shenyue's room. He really wanted to find out, but now was obviously not the right time.

The smell of blood in the air made L flinch his nose, followed by a puff of smoke mixed with nicotine. L saw Yagami sitting on a chair, he was wearing a black shirt.The blood on it had dried up, and the cloth was as straight as an iron plate.Sayu was lying on the floor of the living room with a fruit knife stuck in her throat, bleeding all over the floor, her body was as cold as frozen metal.This place is not at all like a murder scene, it is not messy or even overly neat, the fallen girl is not so much a miserable victim, but more like a sacrificial saint.Because she still had an overly peaceful expression on her face, and her hands were clasped on the fruit knife with a sense of ritual, full of willingness before she died, and she was relieved in just a few minutes.

Ye Shenyue held a cigarette between the tips of his index finger and middle finger, and the burning shreds of tobacco flickered on and off. He didn't smoke it, but quietly held the cigarette, letting the smoke fill the entire space.

"Suicide." L said, "Suicide again."

"Akimoto Sakuya committed suicide in the same way." Yagami said, "She cut her own throat."

Besides Akimoto Saki, L quickly thought of another person who committed suicide by the same method.Ye Shenyue is not familiar with this person, but L has a deep memory of him.He was a boy, no one knew his real name, but more people called him "A".

It is said that A was originally the most hopeful person to inherit the title of "L", but he died by suicide.After that, B became the most outstanding successor. Many people said that B would do anything to get this title, so he killed A.But this is just a rumor, there is no evidence to prove that B is the murderer. L can't break the undocumented case, but in his only contact with B, at least one thing is certain--B has no interest in the title of "L".

Ye Shenyue dismissed L's behavior of knowingly asking, such similar conversations have been repeated countless times in the past, and the two of them are like elementary school students, enjoying this meaningless guessing game.There is no emotion before victory or defeat, just like every chess game between them, pure pursuit is their life creed.

"Too focused on winning or losing on the chessboard will forget the real opponent." L always said that, Ye Shenyue knew what he meant.In the past three weeks, he had countless opportunities to choose to "cooperate" with L, but he never thought about implementing it because he always had in his heart the initial duel between him and L that could not be decided. .He always wanted to continue the unfinished game, L died because of Rem's love for Mi Haisa, he designed everything, but he was still like an outsider who couldn't participate in it, and this always made him feel inexplicable regret.

"When will this all end?"

"When you want to end it." L replied.

The ashes fell into the ashtray, and the last bit of tobacco was taken by L for himself. The nicotine was inhaled into L's lungs, and the smoke he exhaled formed a wonderful shape. Then he crushed the filter and pinched it in a twisted posture In the ashtray.This scene fell into Ye Shenyue's eyes, leaving only too pale fingers, and the cyan blood vessels crawling on the back of the hand were like faint tattoos, as if what flowed inside was not blood but melted ice.

"I thought you didn't smoke."

"Just because I don't like it doesn't mean I won't, and besides—I'm helping you end it."

It's hard to imagine that the word "Bang" would appear from L's mouth. Ye Shenyue can be sure that this is the first time he heard this word from L's mouth, because he is a person who always says "please". An obnoxious, commanding person.But at this moment Ye Shenyue made a decision, he never thought he would make this choice.

Because Ye Shenyue really realized that the self in his youth had become a phantom like a mist, and his persistence before that was just an illusion of inertia.That unfinished duel will never have a result, which is ridiculous to say, but he always hopes in his heart, preferring that this innocence is filling the gap in the past.But in fact, the gap in the past can only be a gap forever, it cannot be changed, nor can it be filled.The image of L in his mind will not become full because of their unprecedented filling of details. It seems so absurd that his impression of the past is forcibly stereotyped on L at this moment.The L in the past never offered him help, and he never accepted help from L either.

So what about Sayu?She didn't have to be, but she was still pushed to the same guillotine.In the final analysis, it was just because he didn't take all this seriously, and the repetitive and boring fate turned into one monotonous game after another in his eyes.He regarded it as a chess game that only meant winning or losing, but never thought about the possibility of continuing.

"Before you came, I got a call."

Yagamitsu was changing her bloody shirt when Sayu's phone rang.The other doesn't even use a voice changer, and his squawky laugh is reminiscent of a forest owl, eerily, uninterrupted, with triumphant satisfaction.Immediately after he reported a place name, Ye Shenyue was stunned when he heard this place.He firmly believes that if the "rule" is a person, his bad character may be able to compete with L.Even thinking about it now is a distant memory, but he still remembers because it was there that Death ended his short life.The other party was sure that he would show up, and he seemed to know his character well in words.

"So you're going there?"

"Correct."

"Aren't you afraid of being a trap?"

Ye Shenyue looked at L strangely, with a smile on his face like a sharp knife, "Isn't that the reason why you let me out - to be a qualified bait. L, don't be too self-righteous, thinking that I have nowhere to go You called for help, but in fact, it was you who decided that KIRA's target was me, and you were the one who could do nothing."
