EKG Life's Mask

"I have a few questions, can I ask you?"

Even though I was already frightened in my heart, I still asked this question.

"Well? What?"

That face was still smiling at me, as if no matter what I asked, he didn't care.

"Who made you out? Someone who wants to use you to gain their own benefits? Or is it your master?"

"I am Fengshuo, how can I have a master?" he said.

"No! You're just a mask, and you know who I mean!" I said.

But for what I said, he looked at me with a confused expression as if he really didn't understand.

"I heard from my elder brother that you are a mask made of the molted skin of a scorpion demon." I said

"So?" he asked again.

"Then..." I asked, "The double contract that you keep saying, opening and closing your mouth, can't be signed by me and your mask! Then, the person who made you do such a thing now is you yourself Your own will, or the will of your own body?"

"Oh! This one!"

Hearing this, he seemed to finally understand what he said: "My main body is now peacefully waiting for the next molt to grow in the cave! That's why I came out."

I feel extremely disgusted by such completely out-of-the-box communication, but I don't know what kind of face I should show him.

"But if it's just a mask, of course there is no way to sign a contract with outsiders. Although what I am doing now has not been approved by the other me, I think that if it is him, seeing the same We will choose the same means. After all, we are of one mind!"

"In other words, the real murderer is not what you mean? The culprit who killed Feng Nu and the villagers should be the one you said, who signed a double contract with me, Feng Shuo! ' I asked.

"Well...you can understand it this way! But your contract has not yet been established! After all, Fengshuo bears Fengshuo's name, but you are not a demon yet." He said so, still smiling I.

"I know that!" I said. "Then, my question is over."

"Huh? So fast? Don't you have anything else to ask?"

As if these two words were not enough, he sat on my bed and said like he didn't want to leave.

"If I say now, let you take me to see your real body, how many people will you kill on the way?" I asked.

"Eh?"

As if he didn't react all of a sudden, Fengshuo looked up at me.But it doesn't seem quite right to say that he didn't react.Indeed, the moment he looked up at me, his face did show a little confusion, but after that, he seemed to be observing me, and then guessing what I meant.

"Three." He said, "Anyway, it should take seven to nine days to reach the cave where Fengshuo is about to molt, so even if I don't care that my body starts to stink, become stiff, and have corpse spots, I must I have to kill three more people, otherwise, I won’t be able to move forward with my rotting body.”

"Three..."

I felt a trace of hesitation in my heart. To be honest, let alone watching this guy kill three more people, even if I let him out and let him kill another person, I can't do it.However, he is nothing more than the sloughed shell of the scorpion demon!As for the scorpion, if it wants to grow, it is absolutely impossible to shed its skin only once, that is to say, even if he is killed here, there will be another one.What's more, if only a mask has such abilities, if the eldest brother can't underestimate it, then what kind of monster will the main body be?

"Then, does your body have to be as petite as it is now? Why did you take away such a petite body after Feng Nu?" I asked again.

"Eh? That's right..."

He showed a face as if he had just reacted.

"Because Chi Yue likes this!"

In the end, what came out of his mouth was only this sentence.

Because I made fun of Feng Nu, he thought I liked Feng Nu, and then killed him. After that, because he thought I liked petite boys, did he always look for a figure similar to Feng Nu?

"In other words, even if you can't find a partner, it's okay to change your face to anyone..."

I muttered and thought about it.

As if I guessed something from my words and deeds, after he continued to stare at me for a while, I heard him speak again.

"Could it be, Chiyue, are you really planning to see Feng Shuo's real body?" Feng Shuo stared at me with wide eyes and asked.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"It's not like what's wrong..."

He said with a embarrassed expression: "Although Feng Shuo really wants to see Chi Yue, even if she was betrayed by Chi Yue, he still wants to see Chi Yue. Appearing here, but I think, if it's about Feng Shuo who has a body, maybe right now, he doesn't want to see Chi Yue!"

"What do you mean?"

Can't figure out what he's talking about, want to see me?Don't want to see me again?Then, what does it mean to be betrayed?

"kindness?"

As if he didn't understand my reaction, Feng Shuo showed a puzzled expression.

"Does Chiyue really not remember at all? What you did 11 years ago."

"11 years ago?"

Again, it was he who said this.I always feel that as long as I am in front of him, he will always mention 11 years ago.I said before that I don’t remember him for only 11 years, and now it’s 11 years. Did something special happen 11 years ago?

Speaking of which, the former me should not be such a person who likes to hang out.I have also worked hard, in order to be able to help my parents, in order to be able to carry the family with my eldest brother, I have also worked very hard to learn spells.But when did I become like this?And why did he abandon the incantations he had worked so hard to learn?

11 years ago?If you think about it, can you know why?But why, I always feel that this is like a beast that should be imprisoned in the head and should never be released...
