I'm on the scramble

The two looked at each other across the empty corridor. Even though the entire building was surrounded by special abilities, the dark corridor could still receive the moonlight outside the window, and the silver brilliance like mercury flowed into the ground.

"I handed you over to the police that time when we parted, and you fell into the hands of j.w, so it turned into this situation..."

Combined with j.w's real identity and the choices she made at the beginning, Ah Li can easily figure out what's going on.

It was she who sent people into the abyss with her own hands.

Ah Li stared at her with a calm expression. The bright moonlight covered the outline of half of her body, making the usual lively and bright colors slightly quiet, highlighting the softness and calmness that belonged to a girl.

Opposite her, the black-haired girl standing against the glass was also dressed in silver, like the color of a lonely planet in the universe, and the atmosphere lingering around her seemed extremely lonely and cold.

"Even if you didn't do that, my situation is actually the same."

She opened the mouth to speak, her faint voice was particularly ethereal in the empty corridor.

"Same?" Ali was a little puzzled by this, but Asuki quickly explained.

"The experience of being killed in my dreams day after day has been deeply rooted in my heart. As long as I close my eyes, I will be killed, killed, killed. No matter where I go, I am the same."

Following the confession of the black-haired girl, there seemed to be a special energy fluctuating around, and countless fragmentary pictures invaded A Li's brain along the way.

Blood was everywhere as far as the eye could see, the skin was peeled off alive, the tongue was cut off by pliers, and the limbs were tied to the moving car and forcibly torn off... The bloody pain seemed to be transmitted to my own nerves along the vision.

Ah Li sucked in a breath of air unconsciously, and the seething blood color faded from the retina in an instant, and the surroundings returned to the original scene.

Knowing that he was forced to 'empathize' with her, Asuki calmed down and lowered his eyes bitterly: "Sorry, this is my ability. From a long time ago, when I get emotional, I will convey the image in my mind. To others, I can't restrain..."

Ah Li squeezed the fist hanging by his side, feeling the sense of reality gradually return to his body.She shook her head and understood everything.

"In other words, have you been enduring these tortures in your dreams?"

"..."

This question was too cruel, Asukai lowered his eyes and refused to answer.Ah Li didn't care, and stepped forward to get closer to her.

"It's okay. The j.w who caused all this is dead, stop this ability, and I will take you out of here."

But the other party hugged his arm tightly when he heard this, and couldn't help shaking his head.The look of resistance and shrinking, as if wearing only thin clothes in the cold North Pole, feeling cold and lonely.

"It's useless, I don't want to struggle anymore..."

Asuka stared desperately at the girl who had taken him away, "No matter where I escape, my destiny is destined to have such an ending. Even if there is no j·w, there will be a second one like j·w People from w appeared in my dream and continued to torture me, I've had enough..."

"Please, kill me..."

Free her from this rotten world.

What replaced the voice of despair was a mournful pleading. Her dark green pupils were full of despondency, which should have been a bright color, but regrettably shrouded in a haze of despair.

Faced with such an expression, it seemed that no matter what she did, it would be cruel to her.

Ah Li was silent for a long time, she scratched her tea chestnut hair in distress as if the other party had nothing to do, and sighed deeply: "Tsk... I know someone who is quite similar to you."

Asukai was attracted by this sentence, and as if unable to understand it, he turned his pale face slightly.

"He also felt that he couldn't live anymore, and tried to find various ways to solicit beautiful women to accompany him to die in love every day." As if recalling the daily behavior of the black-haired young man, A Li's expression was inexplicably full of helplessness, but at the end , but that look gradually transformed into a little tenderness.

"This world is scary, right? Countless malice and pressure surround me, no matter which direction I look up, I can't find the exit. I understand that it is very scary to live alone. matter."

"—So it's normal to want to escape with death."

Ah Li said to her in a calm tone: "But in my opinion, it seems like you are saying 'please save me, don't leave me alone'."

This turning point made Asuka back a few steps pale, as if staggering.

On the contrary, Ah Li resolutely took a big step towards her, came to a position less than half a meter in front of her and said, "I want to say 'sorry' to you."

Unexpectedly, she would say such words, Asukai raised his eyes in disappointment: "Why, why?"

Ah Li rolled up the corners of her lips towards her, and the brilliance in her smile seemed to be able to dispel the darkness instead of the moonlight: "Of course I apologize for what happened before...I'm sorry, I promised to rescue you, but left you halfway .This time, you might as well come to me."

Under the full gaze of the frail black-haired girl, she stretched out her hand as she has done many times in the past.

"Do you want to join the Armed Detective Agency? We are all people with special abilities like you. Here, you will not receive any strange eyes, and you can even teach you to control your abilities. You don't want bad guys to enter your Dreamland, drive them all out, how about it?"

Like a butterfly lured by light, Asuka asked in a daze, "...can I really, really do it?"

Such a bright future is too extravagant for her who has been staying in the dark... Can she really, can live like an ordinary person?

As if hearing her unspoken voice, Ah Li smiled and said firmly: "Of course, as long as you say you want to live, I will take you away regardless."

"..."

In Asuki's heart in the past, reality was just a continuation of dreams, and there was nothing worth looking forward to.

But now someone told her that even she can learn to have happiness.Asuka felt that her own world was still a world where there was no door, but...someone directly opened the sky for her.

"You are so strange...why, you want to save someone like me?" Asuki tightened his slender fingers as if he wanted to embrace his arms in order to have a real feeling, "Why, you want to treat me Say something like that?"

"Because I heard you say that you really want to 'live'——if that's the case, I won't wait for death. The Armed Detective Agency pays the most attention to the justice and character in the investigator's heart."

Ah Li, whose arms were raised sorely, couldn't help shaking his palm up and down in front of the girl, as if urging her to make a decision quickly.

"So, do you want to just stay in the box and sleep forever, or choose to live with me?"

After a long time, Asuka finally opened his lips tremblingly, and spoke a few syllables from it.

The moment she placed her hand in her palm, the barriers surrounding the entire building shattered and scattered into pieces of golden light, forming the wings of the two of them at their sides.

This girl, like the real bird in her name, flew out of the box that had trapped her in the past.
