[Psycho-Pass] Paranoia

Chapter 26 God, This Is Unwilling But I Can't Resist 2

Washed by the rain, the ground was muddy.

There is a person waiting for her in the abandoned division of Ogishima.

Today is December 25th, Christ's birthday.

A year has passed since the specimen incident.

The protagonist of that dystopian film issued a notice of a terrorist attack a year in advance, as did Quangong Temple, and the specimen incident was her notice.Now that a year has passed, since Quangong Temple has sent her an invitation, she will definitely come.

If you don't end the past, you can't fully enter the new world. Even if the public security bureau suppresses the case for some reason and treats it as a taboo, it doesn't mean that Liangzi has to give in to the wicked.

The huge sleeping fan island, which escaped the eyes of the witch, was dark and huge, like a huge dormant beast, falling into a century-old sleep and refusing to wake up.

After entering the ground, she turned on the flashlight.

Kosaburo Fujima has been here, and Hitoko may have followed him here secretly.Sasayama-san, who bumped into Hitoko who came to Ogishima alone several times, must have been to this place.

Quangong Temple has also set foot here countless times.

People who come here have different purposes.

Now, following the figures of the dead, Ryoko has also come here.

Along the way, there was a lot of blood on the edge of the tunnel, which became a signpost guiding her forward.

At the end of one of the overlapping underground labyrinths is the subterranean building of a meatpacking factory.Dozens of giant meat grinders are lined up in the empty underground hall, exuding a cold and lonely air.

Ryoko went straight to the mural at the end of the hall and took off the frame.

On the back of the picture frame were two lines of Rilke's poem painted in blood.

Such a bright red color, but the German font is still elegant.

"Ichsehnemichsonach demrauschenden Blut; der Steinistssostill. Ichtrumevom Leben: das Lebenistgut. Hatkeinerden Mut, durchdenicherwachenwill"

(I'm so desperate for blood to flow from my body.

But the body that was a stone statue remained motionless.

I long for life, because life is so blessed.Who can have this bravery, let me wake up from the stone statue)

Yoshiko removed the slate behind the painting, and there was a shiny new revolver, a pair of scissors, and a...bomb timing device inside.

"The way to the prime minister's residence, come, choose one."

The time of the explosion was twelve o'clock at midnight, and the question was which thread to cut to stop it.

This is not something that he can solve by himself. Liangzi took out her mobile phone, but found that the signal here was completely blocked.

Slight ghostly footsteps appeared in this empty place.

She looked up.

Obviously, the other party didn't expect anyone here, so he looked this way suspiciously to confirm the target.

At the moment when the four eyes met, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and quickly took out a razor, with the intent to kill.

Meanwhile, Ryoko took aim at him with a revolver and cocked the trigger.

However, the other party's reaction was not human-like. He avoided the sudden bullet after being wiped off his shirt cuff, and quickly came to Liangzi with frightening agility, and kicked her hard without hesitation. abdomen.

In order to avoid this fierce and fierce blow, Ryoko missed the opportunity to fire the second shot.

At the same time, he clasped her right hand backwards, and the brutality of that action was beyond the realm of human beings.Even Liangzi, who had been educated by his father since childhood to be as good as a man in gymnastics, was surprised by his sloppy movements.

Because her right hand had been cut open, it was even more fragile. When she heard the tearing sound, her right hand had already been removed.Like the joints of a doll, it was easily and neatly unscrewed and thrown aside.

Her severed limbs were jagged and dripping with blood.

Yukimori Shibata panted slightly, not because of lack of energy, but because he felt excited because of the long-lost warm-up exercise and felt that his body's functions were gradually recovering.

Realizing that she was no match for this man at all, and that he clearly wanted to kill herself, Ryoko tried to aim the gun at him while retreating in defeat.

However, she already has an absolute disadvantage.

She knew it when he grabbed her face and fell straight onto the cold body of a giant meat grinder.

Her head was hit hard against the machine again and again, and more and more bright red blood oozed from her forehead.

Then, a moment of silence and relaxation.He let go of her.

The roar of the machine sounded - he started the meat grinder.

The cold machine behind her moved like a waking beast, and she felt its heat.

Yukimori Shibata picked up her collar and threw her into the meat grinder.

But one step earlier than this action, a huge roar-like sound sounded.

The whole factory seemed to be alive and active.Obviously, the warehouse as a whole is a super-giant rolling machine.

Ryoko's right wrist, which lost her right hand, was caught in a meat grinder.

Seeing that the warehouse door was about to close, and that he would become a meal for a bigger beast, Shibata Yukimori left her aside and quickly rolled out of the door.

Fortunately, the meat grinder has been abandoned for more than ten years, and it was stopped by Ryoko's wrist after it started running.

Enduring the blurred consciousness of excessive blood loss and the sharp and numb pain, Ryoko raised his left hand and fired a final shot at his back.This man is the same, the same criminal who has taken countless lives.The smell of blood on his body was so strong and obvious.

Even if it is impossible to target in such a state, it is necessary to make a last effort for the safety of society.Maybe he didn't hurt her friend, but he must hurt someone else's friend, relative.

I don't want to see anyone sad like her anymore.

What right do these people have to judge the value of other people's existence, and judge that other people's lives are numb and worthless? Such things are really unreasonable.

"I've never felt lonely." Ryoko murmured, "We also know that witches make people feel numb because they are too relaxed, and they tend to become empty when they lose pressure. We are not fools, and we can all see this clearly, so we Trying to change the world for the better."

"So, I know that it's not the world, not anyone, but my own body that binds me." In this hazy state, she seemed to see Quangong Temple appearing in front of her to talk to it.

"I don't believe you think that."

"Even though most of your perceptions of me are correct, you lack love for me as a person. It's not that I haven't confessed once. It's because I know I'm a sinner that I envy you all. A person without flaws, I want to be complete but my talent is flawed. This kind of confession and pain cannot be seen without love. Can you see now that I am different from Makishima-san. I have been desperately trying Suffering from hunger, not once since the first malice..."

Quan Gongsi's gaze turned to the bomb under the picture frame.

Ryoko struggled to raise her head, the ceiling was falling, this warehouse was the biggest crushing machine.

But if the explosives were really buried under the prime minister's mansion... now she is the only one who can cut the explosives.

Blood dripped from her severed limbs, and she wriggled unsteadily with her mutilated body on the cold floor.

The closer you get to death, the more you miss those close to you.

For some reason, all I can think about now is the temperature of the person I hugged with both hands in the early morning light a month ago.I want to stay by your side forever, I really want to fulfill all the promises.

Really really don't want to end here.Even if he made him forget her, he must be looking forward to her return.She knows it, really knows it.

But the icy ceiling above his head was falling at a constant speed, and it was impossible for one person to open the closed stone door.

"I know you don't believe how determined I am, and you must think that I will soon forget you with time. However, such a thing is impossible. How the world outside me changes I don't know, but my heart does not It's changed, if I can't even guarantee this, how can I have the face to live with you in the world. In the past years, it was because of the existence of the surveillance officer and the executive officer that our safety was guaranteed."

Thinking of this, Ryoko struggled to stand up against the wall.

"Is your heart here?" Ryoko asked the phantom in his delusions.

"Yeah. I struggled very hard, but I couldn't become the person I wanted to be. I couldn't smile because of your spring flowers, but my happiness is something that is not accepted by human beings."

"Ah...you don't need to tell me about such things. You endured hunger for eight years, but you couldn't help it in the end. You wanted to make such a big mess, and your hopeless contradiction was thinking about who Come to clean up the mess for you, so... well... I will come. Because you are no longer anywhere." Ryoko panted, and said in a helpless tone, "I think you must have killed yourself."

"Trust me" written next to the red line

"Don't trust me" written next to the blue line

Ryoko raised the scissors to cut, and the countdown on the bomb stopped immediately.And the ceiling that kept falling, almost reaching the top of his head, had stopped sinking.

If people who don't want to stop the bombs come here, they will be crushed to a pulp.Only when it is stopped, the meat grinder will stop.

"I want to live, and I will not despise my life. Because there are still promises that have not been fulfilled, and... people are very strong, that's right, I believe that I at least have the strength to keep my promises. Quangong Temple, Forgive me, I don't want to meet another person like this, what's the value at all." Liangzi fell to the ground, the gurgling blood pooled into a pool of blood, and she lay down in it, because she knew that she would not die so weakly, So safely fell into a short sleep.

Because she was determined enough, she was able to say goodbye to him as a matter of course.The system where executive officers cannot get married is too inhumane, and things like this will definitely be changed in the future.Otherwise, she will have no choice but to never marry...
