On the second day after the funeral, he and his father drove to the Mihaisha cemetery.None of them spoke during the drive, and the scenery outside was like a film being pulled out of a machine quickly.Even after arriving at the destination, the father did not get out of the car.Ye Shenyue can imagine the reflection in the rearview mirror, and the cut picture is like a photo of Li Field.He was smoking a cigarette and frowning like a bronze statue, his deep eyes were sunken in the eye sockets, and deep and dense wrinkles piled up between his brows.

At that time, he was wearing a black suit with a brown pen in his pocket, which was a gift from Sayu before his death.The flower in my hand is light and floating, like an abstract symbol without weight.The flower shop where he went to buy flowers had a young girl who worked part-time. Her dexterous hands seemed to magically turn individual flowers into a grand carnival.At that time, Ye Shenyue took a fancy to the silver leaf chrysanthemum in her hand, and it always reminded him of the white snow piled up on the blue mountains of Wyoming.It seems to be covered with frost, and the green color seems to be withering, but it is full of contradictory vitality.

The working girl lowered her head and concentrated on arranging flowers and didn't notice him, her flaxen hair was loose on her shoulders.Ye Shenyue spoke to him, and the girl raised her head when she heard the sound. The moment she saw him, she became shy for some reason, and kept twirling the broken hair by her ears with her fingers.Ye Shenyue felt that she looked very much like someone in memory, but she had never been able to remember who she was.

Ye Shenyue remembered that she once asked Luke if there is a soul if a person dies.But Luke is full of materialism and insists that he has always seen only human life spans, never human souls.But Ye Shenyue always regards this experiential description as the ignorance of the god of death. Whether it is death or love, their understanding is not as good as that of a human child-he has never seen the appearance of a soul at the beginning, maybe because of the heart. The shape is closer to Grim Reaper.Later, the gears of time ran rampant on the road, and in countless silent midnights, he saw forty white souls of himself floating alone, as cold as the melancholy moonlight.

Ye Shenyue walked all the way up, shuttling between the white tombstones.He seemed to see the snow on the peaks of the mountains, like a cluster of glowing white stones.He first passed Sayu's cemetery, and then saw Sakuya's tombstone hidden in the middle of a pile of white from a distance, and then the people he knew and the people he didn't know on both sides disappeared behind him.Behind several haggard cherry trees, he saw a white tombstone.Standing quietly, it is the lonely gaze of the crowd on the platform.Ye Shenyue greeted it, and then threw the bouquet in front of the tombstone.There are no pictures or names on the tombstone.He opened the marble cover above the tombstone with a knife, and the black death note lay in the tomb and finally saw the light of day.

Then the drizzle in the sky suddenly turned into a violent storm, the cold wind carried the rain, and dark clouds gathered from all directions.The wind blew the pages of the notes, but the notes were like a rock that hadn't been soaked by the rain.Ye Shenyue half knelt on the ground, writing the truth he had been waiting for in black handwriting.But when he rewrote the name "BeyondBirthday" according to the handwriting on it, the face of B that appeared in his mind suddenly became the girl in the flower shop, so that he couldn't write the last letter, pen nib and paper The distance between them becomes a gap that cannot be filled.

Ye Shenyue didn't hesitate, the tall buildings whose foundations were shaken would turn into ruins in a short while, so they had to seal up all the rubble and dust in the notebook.When he stood up again, the jacket of the black suit was already attached to his body like a lead-filled iron sheet.It was heavy and hard, imprisoning him in its impenetrable armor.

"Don't kill him?"

Luke sat on a bare branch, and the apple in his hand disappeared into its bloody mouth in a blink of an eye.It tried to rebuild the web of deceit, but unfortunately it failed.

Ye Shenyue put the pen back into her breast pocket, "No way, she won't let me write."

After he finished speaking, a foul breath escaped from his chest.He felt extremely refreshed, and once again saw his soul disappear into the pine forest of the snow-capped mountain.This time he finally had a chance to say goodbye to himself, and the white waved his arms towards him, and the white arms he swung reminded him of Daphne's soft branches after it turned into a laurel tree.

Ye Shenyue was very calm, but Luke was very dissatisfied with all this. It was surprised at first, but immediately felt extremely boring.

"He killed your sister."

Luke stated the facts to him, and B also said the same thing the next day before he was sent to Los Angeles Prison for life imprisonment, because he never understood where Ye Shenyue's sudden "kindness" came from. And it was this unexpected choice that made all his plans fall short.But B was unable to ask this question in front of Ye Shenyue, because Ye Shenyue was at a loss for the FBI's investigation and inquiry activities. The person who came instead of Ye Shenyue was L, and it was beneficial for him to know all of this Paraphrased by L.

"Aren't you going to see him?"

That day L confirmed this matter with Ye Shenyue again before departure, and the latter was playing with the silver leaf chrysanthemum and blue hydrangea in the white vase with great interest, and the short sound in his nasal cavity was his answer.

"Are you really not going?"

"You must be a nagging old man when you are old." Ye Shenyue said, "This is the third time you asked me about it. I told you yesterday that the FBI investigation team will still look for me this afternoon. Knowing the situation, they are your subordinates, their perseverance is almost the same as yours, and their lack of sympathy is quite authentic-they have no scruples when facing a wounded person who is still recovering. I really I hope you, the world's leading detective, can use your privilege to avoid these troubles-it will somehow make me think you are a useful person instead of a handicapped person who only eats sweets."

L shrugged, bearing the sharp sarcasm from Ye Shenyue. L knew that Ye Shenyue was still angry at the prank he played on the pier that day, but he was used to it.Because even if Ye Shenyue is in a good mood, these cynical scenes are unavoidable between them every day.

"Unfortunately, there are no so-called 'privileges' as you mentioned."

Ye Shenyue smiled ironically when she heard the answer she expected. He knew L's tricks, and the FBI was arranged by him to torture him. L is still obsessed with what happened after the call he hung up abruptly that day, and he also wants to understand the true meaning of what he said that day.But neither B nor Ye Shenyue was stupid enough to confess everything, not to mention that he still clearly remembered L's boring prank.Ye Shenyue patted the cushion on the hospital bed with one hand, and ordered L to leave.

"Let's go, detective, the wounded are going to rest."

"I sort of saved you, and you don't even want to tell the truth. It's so sad."

What L said is the truth, Ye Shenyue cannot deny it.But when he recalled the scene at that time, he still felt that what L did was so childish and ridiculous that he was unwilling to give him a good face now.

"You'd better be sad, this kind of makes me feel happy." Ye Shenyue said, "If you please me, maybe I will give you the answer you want one day."

In the warehouse that day, before L rushed to the scene to support. B had already shot at him, and he didn't even think about letting Ye Shenyue get out of there alive, and he was not at all shaken by what Ye Shenyue said.This was more or less what Ye Shenyue expected. The impact of the three shots almost shattered his ribs and sternum. For a moment, he almost thought that he was going to die here.He survived thanks to L who provided him with good-quality body armor, which helped him block the fatal three shots.But this is hardly a trick, it's just Ye Shenyue's little trick after suffering a loss.

Ye Shenyue quickly picked up her father's gun, and had several confrontations with B while looking for cover.Relying on the terrain map he had recorded in advance, he tried his best to delay the time waiting for L's rescue.But this process was extremely thrilling, and he was shot in the shoulder.This makes his situation even more passive. As a judge, B is not afraid of gunshots at all, and he does not take any precautions.What's more, his marksmanship is superb. Ye Shenyue is not sure how many magazines he has in his hand. After discovering the secret of his body armor, B's actions are more cautious, aiming at his limbs and head every time he shoots.He silently repeated the steps of "loading the magazine, aiming, and shooting", obeying the instructions mechanically, and he was a ruthless and indomitable hunter.

Ye Shenyue did not expect that one day he would repeat this experience, hiding in the shadow of the container jungle, and being chased and killed as if he had nowhere to go.He saw Luke sitting on the chimney in the middle, and Luke was yawning boredly.The mobile phone in his pocket was so quiet that it seemed to have exhausted all its power, and it swayed with his running pace.

Ye Shenyue ran in a concealed direction, blood flowing down her arms. B also knows the terrain here, he has few advantages, and there are fewer and fewer places to try to hide. Every choice of staying is like shooting himself in the temple with a revolver loaded with a bullet.Yagami loathes this kind of gamble, he thought before that killing Cinder was the longest 40 seconds of his life, but he was wrong.When killing people, all time is short, and survival is the longest waiting.Strangely enough, however, he was calm.He tried to recall the past state of mind, those past despair and loneliness were blown away by the salty sea breeze.He doesn't know where his self-confidence comes from. If one of him and B can survive, then he believes that person must be himself-but this is actually a paradox, and both he and B must survive.Only in this way can he have the chance to truly live and compete with the so-called "fate".Even after he paid so much and even struggled with his own nature, Ye Shenyue did not waver in the slightest.

The paths of the past and the present cross and separate, and they become Pandora's black box, which contains Schrödinger's cat, waiting for him to open the box and seal it all.Yagami didn't see no crooked, rusty stairs, no crumbling ceilings here.Luke, who was sitting idle on the chimney, could only wait and watch and could not intervene in the competition, but Ye Shenyue still saw the phantom.White and transparent it came toward him, staring with black eyes.

"You look really messed up," said the black eyes.

"It's not my fault," Ye Shenyue gasped, with sweat sticking to her hair on her forehead.Ye Shenyue felt that his cologne was mixed with the smell of blood, and evaporated as his body temperature continued to rise. He felt that he now smelled like a large walking perfume bottle mixed with blood.

"I've never believed you, this time I believed your evil. But I swear never again. Don't try to escape responsibility, L."

L showed a thoughtful expression, and then the black muzzle of the gun suddenly pressed against Ye Shenyue's forehead.His movements were so fast that even Ye Shenyue's thoughts froze at that moment, and the smile that had just risen on his face hung on his lips stiffly.

"Unfortunately, Yagami-san." He said, "You got it wrong, I'm B."

Ye Shenyue is not sure how long time has passed, maybe a second, maybe 1 minute, but Ye Shenyue feels as if she has been frozen for a century.His doubts and wavering flashed like ghosts, and then he first laughed, and then laughed out loud.He put his forehead against the muzzle of the gun, and the butt of the gun was even moved back by his force.

Ye Shenyue raised his head, facing the cold muzzle of the gun without fear, his eyes were full of arrogance.The sharp edges and corners of the jaw line and the white neck were exposed in front of the opponent without any defense, and the chest heaved up and down due to the violent panting.His tie was lost somewhere, and the white collar was wrinkled and stained with blood, which had turned a bright red color like red wine, which was completely different from his previous neat and meticulous appearance.

"Shoot." Ye Shenyue said.

Then the gunshot rang out, and from the muzzle blasted flying colored debris and multicolored ribbons, and some scattered petals.

"It's not funny at all." Ye Shenyue looked at L's happy look expressionlessly. Of course, the latter didn't show it on his face, but Ye Shenyue could feel that he was laughing happily in his heart at what he just caught off guard. Hesitant.

"You should really look at the look on your face just now. It was so wonderful that it made me feel that this rescue—no, it's that I didn't come in vain in this world."

"I don't make the same mistake twice, L."

"Then what are you hesitating about?"

Ye Shenyue didn't speak, he kept approaching L, his breathing hadn't calmed down from the violent exercise just now.As he said, he was not hesitant because he was successfully "frauded" by L, but he wanted to confirm one thing urgently.The arm hanging by the side was like a malfunctioning machine because of being shot, but the paranoid order of Ye Shenyue's brain forced it to work again, accompanied by unbearable pain.

The palm covered with viscous blood was attached to the side of L's neck, and the icy red color seemed to rush out from an artery. L didn't understand why Ye Shenyue kissed him suddenly, just like he never understood that Ye Shenyue must stubbornly insist on her loneliness.But at that moment, he felt that everything was a little different. The other party's cold lips seemed to be carefully asking for warmth from him, as if the moonlight in the night sky fell on him in the middle of the night, but he actually felt the faint heat.

"I thought you were going to kill me. I gave you a chance, and now you have lost the chance to avenge yourself—forever." Ye Shenyue said softly, "You can never kill me again."
