When the Sand Sculpture Trial Comes to Yokohama

After the momentary shock, Minan Rinka opened her eyes.

What appeared in front of him was a cave in the first layer of subconscious world.She and Jiaairu were still standing beside the human-faced dog's corpse, and behind them, the group of civil servants were still holding the human-faced dog's nail tips, standing there blankly.

Minan Rinka was silent for a moment, then turned around and asked Nakamura Kenichi: "How long have I been gone?"

"About... about ten seconds?" Nakamura Ken replied subconsciously, "What happened just now? The two of you disappeared as if suddenly disappeared, and then suddenly appeared..."

"It's nothing."

Minan Rinka thought, she spent more than half an hour in Jiaairu's dream, but in the cave world, she only disappeared for ten seconds.

This should be related to whether there are observers.When some observers are observing the subconscious world, for example, when a member of "Inohata" observes the work of a detective, the ratio of the time passing speed between the subconscious world and the real world is one to one.But if the subconscious world is not observed, its time lapse speed will deviate from the time lapse speed of the real world, and the specific ratio is not fixed and cannot be predicted.

Minan Rinhua turned her head, just about to talk to Jiaai Liu, but found Jiaai Liu staring at her in a daze, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"What's wrong?" Minan Rinhua was taken aback, "Did the jump at the end scare you?"

It's okay not to ask, but when she asked, Jiaairu couldn't control her voice, sobbed, and raised her hand to press her lips.

"Thank you..." She wiped away her tears and tried her best to speak more clearly, "For so long, this is the first time... to fight back against them in the dream."

"'Tearing arms' and 'peeling face', in fact, in real life, they could not restrain their desire to commit crimes and killed people, and were arrested by the police one after another. Just now, Ming Piaoqiuren and Hondocho Koharu I also found out that Hayaseura is the mastermind behind using my dream to incubate serial murderers." Jiaai Liu said, "Do you know John Walker who 'Cang' is committed to arresting? The first person to enter my dream is John Walker , and he is Hayase Ura Takuhiko."

"John Walker is also him?" Minan Rinka was taken aback, "I have been curious about John Walker since I first came to 'Cang' and heard about John Walker. But I have also entered the well several times I haven't met that guy once."

But Minan Rinka thought it was normal.After all, when she entered the well for the first time, she could accurately call out the name of "open hole" that she had never seen before.Although she didn't tell anyone in the "warehouse" about the system, Hayase Ura Takuhiko, as the director, must have come to the conclusion not to meet her face-to-face based on the information the director can get.

It also makes the situation in which Kaairu—the real-life Asuka Ikiji—is in is all the more frightening.She was controlled by John Walker of unknown identity and appearance in her dream, and her life was threatened because of this in real life. The culprit of the nightmare...

"Are you okay?" Minan Rinka asked worriedly.

"Well. Originally, even if the 'Tearing Arms' have been subdued in real life, they have repeatedly entered and exited my dreams, and they have become ghosts in my subconscious mind, and they still come to kill me every night. But you are in the dream, with me With the same power, I found a way to resist them." Jiaai Liu said softly, "In the future, in the dream, they will not be able to continue to hurt me."

Minan Rinhua was stunned: "Really?"

"Well, it's true." Jiaairu sniffed, nodded with a smile, "I already know how to deal with them. And, even if I do encounter difficulties again... there is still you who can protect them." I."

"Just like those murderers, your impression has already remained in my subconscious mind. If I encounter danger in the subconscious world in the future, your impression will appear and help me." Jiaairu held Mi Nan Rinhua's hand, "Thank you, Rinhua."

"You're welcome." Minan Rinhua exhaled softly, and took Jiaailiu's hand with her backhand.

"By the way, didn't you say that there is one more thing I need to help with...?" Jiaai Liu remembered what Minan Rinka said before.

"Yeah." Minan Rinka let go of her hand, and took out Chuya Nakahara's gloves from her bag.

"This is something of a very important person to me. It should be covered with his thought particles." She handed the glove to Jiaairu, "I need to enter his subconscious world."

"I understand." Jiaailiu took the glove and looked at it for a few seconds, then raised her head and asked Minan Rinka, "Are you ready?"

Minan Rinka nodded.

In an instant, the scene in front of him changed.What Minan Rinka could see was no longer a dark cave, but a piece of scorched earth under the moonlight, with a pungent smell filling her nose.

In the distance is the blue-black sea, and on the other end, "Kaisai" stands quietly, like a dark monster.

This is the Yokohama Concession, the Leibo Street that has just been turned into ruins.

Minan Rinka turned her head, and saw the lowest point in the center of Leibo Street, crouching quietly a huge black shadow thicker than the night.

The black shadow has no eyes, and Minan Rinhua doesn't know if it sees her suddenly appearing now.

At that moment, Minan Rinka suddenly thought of what she had missed just now.

It is also possible that those thought particles did not originate from Zhongye in the Central Plains, but from the gods residing in his body.

***

Inside the safe house in Yokohama, Nakahara Nakaya frowned and opened his eyes.

The scene in front of him was a bit blurred because the alcohol had not subsided.Zhongyuan Zhong also squinted his eyes to look at the furnishings in the house, and muttered to himself: "Where is this..."

He was talking to himself when he suddenly realized that he seemed to be holding something in his hand.

Nakahara also looked down at his palm, then looked up along the arm he was holding, and finally his eyes fell on Dazai Osamu's slightly teasing face.

Osamu Dazai just kept shaking hands with Nakahara Chuya, and said, "You slug finally woke up? I thought your internal organs would be melted by alcohol..."

The moment he saw Osamu Dazai clearly, Nakahara Chuya's expression became colorful...

Chuya Zhongya's drunkenness disappeared for the most part at once, and he sat up in a huff.

"Why am I here? Why am I holding your hand?" He said, wiping his hands in disgust, "How long have you been shaking my hand, bastard? Your hands are sweaty, it's disgusting..."

"You think I want to shake hands with a stinky man like you? I just want to hold the little hand of the lovely young lady and walk with her in the romantic streets of Yokohama." Osamu Dazai narrowed his eyes, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, He wiped his hands slowly, "If you hadn't unconsciously entered the 'dirty state' after being drunk, I wouldn't have to do such a thing that hurts others and does not benefit myself."

"Polluted state?" Zhongyuan Zhong was also surprised, and quickly pulled up his sleeve to check his arm.After a few glances, he suddenly remembered what happened before he was drunk.

"Where is Rinka?" He turned his head and asked Osamu Dazai, "Before I lost consciousness, I should have stayed with her on the Ferris wheel."

"In order to investigate the reason why you entered the dirty state unconsciously, Rinka gave you to me and went to the 'Kura' in Tokyo." Speaking of Minan Rinka, Osamu Dazai's expression became serious, "You should Don't know, 'Kang' is a cooperative organization of our armed detective agency, and has the technology to enter the subconscious of serial murderers to find clues to solve the case. Rinka intends to enter your subconscious to find the truth."

"It's just that there seems to be something wrong with the 'Cang' tonight." Osamu Dazai picked up his phone and showed his call records, "I called the staff of the 'Cang' I knew more than a dozen times, but no one answered. Afterwards, I contacted the information dealer on our side, and learned that the building where the 'cang' is located and the surrounding areas have been completely martial law, and everyone in that area has lost contact."

"I also called Rinka, but I couldn't get through either." He said, "According to my guess, the subconscious machine 'Wang Xiang Nu' used by 'Cang' may have gone berserk and trapped that area. consciousness of all within."

Gravity stood up without saying a word: "I have to go there."

"Don't worry, just listen to me." Osamu Dazai sat on the sofa, watching Nakahara Nakaya raise his leg and walk towards the door, but he didn't move, "You probably don't understand the concept of 'Wu Xiang Nu' rampage Bar?"

Nakahara Chuya stopped and stared back at Osamu Dazai: "What's going on?"

"The principle of operation of 'Wanxiang Girl' is very similar to what happened to 'Asuka Ikiji', a former serial murderer victim. After being rescued by the police, Asuka Ikiji was hospitalized for several months, and then on a certain day She disappeared suddenly. At that time, all the nurses near her ward fell into a coma, and only three of them woke up in the end." Osamu Dazai replied, "According to the narration of the three people who woke up, they entered the same dream while they were in a coma. "

"This is all the information our intelligence dealers can find out. If my guess is correct, what is happening in the 'cang' building now is the same as before. If you go there rashly, it will be considered It's you, and you should also fall into a group dream." Osamu Dazai straightened his coat, stood up and smiled, "However, fortunately, our intelligence dealer found out that the radio wave blocking suit of 'Kang' was in the warehouse. Record. Not long ago, Moki Funataro, a room manager of the "Kura", lent two sets of radio wave blocking suits."

"Our intelligence dealer hacked into Baigui Funataro's mobile phone and found that he used one set of barrier suits and kept the other as a spare."

Zhong Yuanzhong also frowned.

"Take me to the spare suit," he said.
