[Psycho-Pass] Paranoia

Chapter 8 Running Water Does Not Corrupt

Ryoko opened the box sent by the robot, and inside was a set of neatly ironed Sakurasho Academy school uniforms, well-cut, straight-line sailor pleated skirts, and a small, insignificant name tag on it.

She carefully took out the school uniform and hugged it tightly to her chest, as if it was a fragile treasure like glass, so she had to be careful everywhere——

It's Hitomi's school uniform.

"Since you choose to drown in the illusory past, there should be no expression on your face other than sadness. If you can still smile, it is your betrayal of the past. The villain or the hypocrite, this is the rest of your life the choice faced.”

Under the school uniform, there is a card message from Reiji.

Ryoko's pupils suddenly constricted, this sentence is quite correct.

She seemed to be slowly withdrawing from her grief.If she doesn't have enough anger, how can she support that restless heart.If there is not enough sorrow, how can she not forget the bound soul of her friend.

……

...

Yoshiko never left her room because she didn't receive instructions from the surveillance officer.By the time she realized this, she had been shut out for four days.

Moreover, she only realized it after being reminded by her.

"Are you on a hunger strike?"

Liangzi was lying on the bed in the internal medical room of the Public Security Bureau for infusion. Tang Zhi Du Zhien stood in front of her bed and asked her curiously.

In addition, there were two executive officers from the second class distributed on both sides of the hospital bed, and they watched her together.

"Analyst?" Liangzi looked at Zhien, unable to remember her name for a while.

"It's over, she can't even remember my name." Zhien said to another person.

"Why must I remember you?" Yayoi who appeared in the ward at some time asked Zhi En abruptly.

Zhi En smiled at her with a good temper and begged to let her go.

Yayoi stretched out her hand and poked Ryoko's ribs, the pain caused her eyes to brim with tears: "I'm not out of shape yet, I can grow back after two more meals."

"What are you supposed to do, don't look at me like that. I'm under a lot of pressure." Ryoko raised his hand weakly, "I just..."

"It's just that you have too little experience, so it's easy to empathize with other young people when you see young people of the same age." The senior who is also in the second class said that he, who is keen on playing mahjong, saw her disagreement with Li Zhi that day with his own eyes. Scattered, "I regretted it after falling out with my fiancé. It's okay, just admit your mistake."

"A man's mind is as broad as a woman's." Zhi En comforted Liang Zi with a smile.

"Growing up in an environment surrounded by women, so lack of awareness of men, easy to have the illusion of empathy. But it's not your fault." Yayoi looked at her seriously.

"I'm empathizing with someone else, why don't I even know myself." After they finished speaking, it was Ryoko's turn to say in wonder.

After Liangzi explained that she did not go on a hunger strike because of love affairs, the gossip crowd dispersed in disappointment.

"So, why are these guys here?" Ryoko couldn't help but say.

"Of course it's because the executive officer's life is too empty, so everyone wants to hear the pornographic news about the senator's family."

Someone answered her in the empty ward except her. Liangzi couldn't bear it anymore, and slammed the bed hard: "Why are you here?"

Teng Guozhen rolled out from under the bed, smiling innocently: "I care about you, comrade. After four days of starvation, you can still knock like an earthquake. I really admire it."

Liangzi retracted her hand under the quilt embarrassingly, the force was mutual, as much as the bed hurt, so did she.

"I became an executive because I harbored hatred—because I had criminal thoughts, so I chose the path of being able to commit crimes." Ryoko leaned his back against the wall, bowed his head and said, "If I write sadness and hatred on my face If I say so, then I am a villain. If I withdraw from my sorrow, I am a hypocrite. Because thinking about such things, I lose track of time."

"Liangzi." Sitting on the ground, Teng slowly smiled while brushing off the dust on his body, "Parents are very important people, right?"

"Well, of course."

"But will your parents stay with you? I mean they'll outlive you, stay with you until the end of your life?"

"will not."

"So after your parents are gone, will your life be ruined?"

Ryoko raised her eyes to look at him, and suddenly understood what he meant.

"Then what about those children who lost their parents at birth? They didn't have parents at the beginning. Should their lives be full of sorrows instead of smiles?"

"How is that possible, it's too bad to think that way. I get it, Teng."

He raised his eyebrows proudly: "So you are immature, girl. It is natural for an important person to leave you, to be sad and painful. But that person does not want you to be like this all the time. To put it cruelly, people live for themselves, Others cannot be responsible for your life, and naturally have no right to ruin your life. If you keep crying, you are a hypocrite. Above."

"Wisdom, kid." Liangzi felt that this lecture was like enlightenment, and she recovered from the collapse of dehydration.

"Hey, please remove that last name." Teng complained unhappily.

Liangzi smiled and shook her head: "Ah, I'm sorry. You are really much smarter than me, Teng."

"If this goes on like this, before you beat me mentally, you may have already collapsed on your own." He spread his hands helplessly, "Looking at me with those big innocent eyes, of course I can't be so wicked as to make up for you."

"I kind of understand why you can always be high."

"Are you praising me or belittling me?" He got up from the ground, put his hands on the edge of the bed, and looked down at her unhappily.

At this moment, the sliding door of the medical room was opened, and Qiao Shen came in with a cigarette in his mouth.He seemed to believe that there was no one here, and he could escape the preaching of the drone, so he came here to smoke.

"So it's because of him that you don't want to leave?" Shen Ye said to Ryoko as if he had realized something.

"Huh?" Both Liangzi and Teng didn't realize Shenya's words in time.

But Shinya had already opened the door again and walked out.

Teng suddenly lay down on the edge of the bed as if discouraged: "Am I going too far... Do you feel afraid to be haunted by such bad things as me?"

Ryoko tapped his shoulder lightly: "You are not a bad person. Besides, are you pestering me?"

"I...see a good toy, I will try my best to collect it. It's because I'm bored." Teng raised his face and smiled helplessly at her.

Ryoko froze for a moment, and he put his hand on the one she had just placed on his shoulder.

"Because I'm bored, I'm very interested in seeing new toys," he said.

Ryoko didn't say anything, she knew what he said was cruel.

He was telling her that she was a new toy in a lonely environment.However, Ryoko couldn't be angry with such a confession.

Because she seemed to understand his state of mind.

After a long time, Liangzi pressed the hand that was still hanging on the infusion bottle to his hand, and she said: "I treat you as an equal friend. And I know that you can't treat people as toys .”

Because she knew that he had a very kind heart and didn't want to hurt others.

"I have a crush on you, Teng."

The author has something to say:

Brother Shen's unintentional words reminded Teng

For Ryoko, it's better to go back to the outside world

instead of being locked up here like him

So if you say you like playing with new toys, break up with her~

Chapter 18 will be worse than chapter 17==

PS: Heavi sauce, 3q~
