Four Seasons Murder

asked in a tone of complete innocence.

"Because you are eager to fight." The black-robed man finished answering, but then asked another question, "And you, why are you eager to fight?"

48 Yuan bent the corner of his mouth noncommittally, but his whole body was blown away by the man in black robe, which simply violated the laws of physics. 48 Yuan's body seemed to be sprayed by a fountain to a height of hundreds of meters, and the resistance of the air made him almost unable to move. move.But the black-robed man who took 48 Yuan to the sky appeared beside 48 Yuan as if teleporting: "Because you are powerless and can no longer fight, so you are eager to fight."

As he said that, the wooden staff in the black-robed man's hand turned into a huge sword, piercing through 48 Yuan's chest.

Because of the inertia of being thrown upwards, 48 ​​wished to automatically send his chest to the black-robed man's sword tip, and then his body began to fall as the black-robed man pressed down.At this time, 48 Yuan could no longer hear anything, until his body fell heavily to the ground, which made him cough uncontrollably.

Even breathing would touch the wound, probably because the blood stains blurred the eyes, or because of the pain, 48 Yuan's eyes were blurred.The man in black came to 48 Yuan's face and looked down at him from above. 48 Wishing to reach out and grab the hem of the black-robed man, 49 Yuan saw clearly that the scarlet pattern on the hem was exactly the one on the piece of paper, with four long leaves in the middle and stamen-like tendrils spreading around picture of.

48 Wish opened his mouth to say something, but the blood kept flowing out of his mouth, making it impossible for him to speak smoothly.

The man in black squatted down, looked at 48 Yuan and said, "I know what you want to say, don't be too aggressive." Then the man in black put his hands on 48 Yuan's eyes, and the latter grabbed his hand at the hem of his clothes It loosened and slipped feebly.

Ayato...! Yuan 49 shouted in his heart, but he didn't dare to move.In order to control his movements, his whole body was shaking.If there is anything sadder than seeing the dead body of someone important to you, it is probably the process of seeing someone important to you die. The 49th courtyard was almost shattered.

The man in black stood up and drew several patterns around 48 Yuan, and then the big sword stuck in 48 Yuan's chest disappeared, and the wound on 48 Yuan's chest disappeared, but his face was still pale.

After tidying up 48 Yuan's body, the man in black picked him up and disappeared out of thin air.

Chapter 17 Reality is like a dream II

It took a long time for the man in black to disappear before the 49th Hospital regained all the sensory perception of his body.After moving his hands and feet that were almost stiff, Yuan 49 suddenly lost his strength and fell limp on the ground.

Courtyard 49 looked at the place where Yuan 48 lay, and there was no blood on the ground, as if no one had ever been there, let alone a single person had died on it.Recalling 48 wishing to say something, but struggling because of the continuous gushing blood, 49 Yuan suddenly buried his head and retched.

After a while, Yon 49 wiped his mouth with his sleeve and stood up.

This scene should be what 48 Yuan said. He saw the scene of his own death. At the same time, according to the dialogue between the two people in the dream, 48 Yuan should have died in a dream.Then, there are many problems.

Why would 48 wish to die in a dream?

Why is 48 wishing to be disembowelled and thrown in the biological laboratory after dying in a dream?

How did the man in black get into the dream of 48 wishes?

On what basis did the man in black choose the victim?

More importantly, what does this dream have to do with Ayato being tortured by the nightmare?

The 49th Academy found that he was finally able to move freely in this dream. For some reason, there was an illusion that he had to complete some instructions within a certain period of time in a special scene of the game before he could move freely.

But even if he can move freely, there is nothing on this endless grassland, no matter how he walks, he will not reach the edge, and everything he sees is green grass.

The 49th Court, who was gradually feeling weak due to the decline of spiritual power, couldn't help but sit down and rest.

The sky was still blue, and the time in the dream didn't seem to be passing. Courtyard 49 looked at the sky, recalling every dream he had experienced after entering the dreamland of Wish 48.

Maybe it can't be called a dream, those are the memories of 48 wishes.

When I was a child, I was injured by the beast Hongjin, which caused my soul to be damaged and I could no longer become an onmyoji. Did you ever have the idea of ​​​​resenting yourself?If he hadn't insisted on feeding the red brocade, 48 Yuan, who has always been highly qualified, would not have been injured in order to protect the 48th courtyard, nor would he have been forced to give up becoming an onmyoji.He was the one who really wanted to be an onmyoji since childhood, but he personally destroyed his dream.

Whether it is in a dream or in reality, when 48 wished to ask himself over and over again whether he should believe in himself, did he ever think about giving up?Neither the body nor the memory belong to me. In this world, I am the only one who is out of place. Let alone wanting to choose to trust others, I am constantly doubting my own existence.And all of this is the result of creating him because of my fear of loneliness and my selfishness.

The 49th courtyard thought in a trance, he ruined the 48th wish in the past, and also ruined the 48th wish now, would he hate himself?

If it is said that people rely on being needed by others to survive, then the meaning of 48 May is to be needed by oneself, even if it is only as a substitute.That's why he is so humble, it seems that he has nothing to ask for, but only hopes to be needed by himself all the time, so that he will not be abandoned.Why is he still willing to stay by his side even now that it brought him such cruel emotions?

49 Yuan ruffled his hair and lay down on the grass.

What was going on in the mind of 48 Yuan who was lying on the ground at that time?

According to the words of the man in black, as long as 48 wishes in his heart and subconsciously does not feel that he will lose, he will definitely not be defeated.The result now is that 48 Yuan was pierced through his chest by the big sword, and he closed his eyes just like that, unable to say the last words. What made 48 Yuan feel a gap in his heart, making him feel that he would be defeated ?

The 49th courtyard looked at the white clouds floating in the sky, and 48th Yuan must have seen this scenery when he was lying here.Looking at these white clouds that looked like cotton candy, what was he trying to say?

49 Yuan closed his eyes and suddenly felt a pain in his chest. It was mild at first, and then it became more and more painful. He had never felt any pain since he entered the dreamland. After he opened his eyes in a panic, 49 Yuan found that his chest was painful. A big sword was inserted, and the clothes on his body became high school uniforms.

Court 49 turned his head and saw the black fabric with red stripes in front of him. He moved his gaze upwards, and there was a backlit face looking down at him. The eyes that shot out seemed to be observing something.

Yuan 49 felt that he couldn't control the strange thoughts, and after a long time of confusion, he realized that those thoughts were 48's wishes.It seems that the brain has been split into two halves, the half belonging to the 49th hospital quietly watching the thoughts of the half belonging to the 48th wish, just like the current 48th wish, always shrinking aside and looking at the previous 48th wish same memory.

"Do you know why you dream of fighting me?"

"Because you are eager to fight."

"And you, why do you want to fight?"

"Because you are powerless and can no longer fight, you long to fight."

The words of the man in black repeated over and over again in his mind, eager to fight but powerless, but eager to fight even more because of his powerlessness. The 49th Academy felt that they were shaken by watching 48th, and seemed to be losing their fighting spirit at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Court 49 tried hard to say something, hoping that Yuan 48 would cheer up, but something gushed out from his burning throat, let alone speaking, he couldn't even breathe.

Is Ayato unable to wake up from this desperate mood?Seeing the man in black squatting down in front of him, Yard 49 suddenly felt extremely sad and indignant, grabbed the man in black by the corner of his clothes, and dragged him to his eyes, but maybe because of the excessive movement, he resonated with 48 Everything that could be seen and felt was gone.However, before everything disappeared, the 49th Hospital saw the face of the man in black a little bit, and couldn't help but widen his eyes in disbelief.

The man in black turned out to be the young biology teacher Ando!How can this be? !

Let alone Mr. Ando’s height is not more than 1.7 meters, and the man in black looks taller than the 1.8-meter 48 Yuan. The important thing is that when 12 Yuan died 48 years ago, Mr. Ando, ​​who just graduated this year, was still in primary school. Didn't graduate? !

But from a certain point of view, there is another kind of rationality. For example, Mr. Ando is a biology teacher, and it is very suspicious that all the victims were disembowelled and died in the biology laboratory.

After all the discomfort and pain disappeared, Yuan 49 sat up from the grass.If I hadn't happened to lie down on the grass just now, I wouldn't have made this discovery, but the authenticity of this discovery is still open to question.

Standing up straight and brushing off the weed debris on the clothes, the 49th courtyard found that the space began to disintegrate as if it had completed its mission, but not only the sky and surroundings were disintegrated, but even the feet were disintegrated.
