"Have you found it?" Mr. Edgar who came a step behind asked.

"Yeah." Cui nodded, and said to the members of the crow, "By the way, they haven't contacted the people outside the 'gate', have they? You are recovering the memory of the main body. It would be bad if you let him have contact with the outside. gone."

"No." The crow said: "They went the wrong way, there is still a long distance from the door."

"That's good." Cui breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Take these three children back first."

"Wait a minute." Dr. Epstein called to stop Cui who was about to leave.With a solemn face, he asked in a deep voice: "Cui, don't say you didn't notice, what You said just now."

"..." Cui turned her head lightly, and replied perfunctorily: "Ah, did you say something? He often hallucinations, maybe he saw strange things again."

"No." Dr. Epstein's complexion became more serious: "He called it, the child's original name."

In the corridor, there was a deathly silence for a moment.

Both Miss Renee and Dr. Edgar showed a look of astonishment, but Cui's face was a bit reluctant.

"Yes, is it?" She pursed her lips, turned her head and asked, "Edgar, did you hear that? I don't seem to have heard it."

"Cui, I'm sorry, I..." Edgar tried hard to distinguish her gesture from Cui's complexion.

"Cui!" Dr. Epstein's voice suddenly became extremely serious: "There must be absolutely no mistakes in this kind of matter."

Hasunuma was picked up by the crow and carried on his shoulders.

She scratched at Raven's thick red robe with her fingers, taking revenge for being roasted.Of course, the little girl's thin and frail fingers didn't have any offensive power, and to the big man in the crow, they were just tickling attacks.At last, in her bewilderment, she developed a strange urge to tease others.

So, she leaned close to the crow's ear: "Say! You! Love! Me!"

crow:……

The man in the red robe coughed and whispered to her, "Master Apostle, please don't make such jokes at this time."

Hasunuma: "Tell me, tell me you love me! I can't say it!"

crow:……

Hasunuma: "Stinky x."

Crow: ... (a pile of crosses on the forehead)

The researchers who were several steps away couldn't hear the conversation between the older and the younger, and stood facing each other.Cui and Dr. Epstein stared at each other, and neither of them seemed to back down.

In the silence, the unconscious You murmured in his dreams.

"Hisunuma... Ming... Yin..."

Cui's complexion instantly turned pale.

She trembled her lips, wanting to explain something: "That, that name, I told you..."

"Needless to say." Dr. Epsteini calmed down. He waved his hand and said, "Freeze Yu first, then Belldandy."

"No!" Cui clenched her five fingers and shouted: "Wait a minute, wait a moment, Belldandy has become a holy person, you can't simply freeze her like this..."

"I'm the person in charge of this project." Dr. Epstein's words were decisive, leaving no room for others to refute: "Could it be that you want to wait until she loses reason and kills like the previous experimental subjects, Will it freeze her?"

Cui shook her body, took a step back, and leaned weakly against the wall.

Renee beside her looked at her worriedly, and wanted to reach out to help, but withdrew her hand again.

Cui knew about it early on.

Belldandy always said some strange things.

An oriental game that has never been heard of, a language that has never been learned, and the Lotus Sutra of the Wonderful Dharma that is impossible to come into contact with...

Since a long time ago, Belldandy has been recovering her own memories one after another.

It belongs to the memory of the exorcist "Akine Hasunuma" from long ago.

Just like U.

And she has always known the result of retrieving her memory.

Dozens of previous failed experiments all ended with the same result.

Retrieve memory, lose your mind, go crazy, and then be forced to freeze.

Dr. Epstein left with the members of the crow, and Edgar, who was carrying Alma on his back, walked to his wife, sighed, and put his hand on Cui's shoulder.He frowned, and tried to whisper softly in a comforting tone: "At least, Alma is still fine, isn't she?"

Cui stared straight ahead in a daze, and after a long time, she murmured, "This child is also... the mistake we made..."

Edgar's hand on her shoulder slipped down quietly.

When Hasunuma woke up again, the wounds on his body had healed, and the smell of barbecue had long since wafted away.

She was lying on the hospital bed, surrounded by Cui with absent-minded eyes.

This ward was different from her previous room. It was based on dark blue, with strange yellow patterns painted on the high ceiling and the floor.

"Cui?" she called out.

"Are you awake?" Cui came back to her senses, immediately cheered up, and squeezed out a smile: "You were injured by Yan Yu, you'd better take a good rest. Don't worry about other things for now, I will try my best to convince Dr. of."

"Other things?" Hasunuma sat up, she raised her arm, and found that she was ingesting medicine through a drip again.On the back of the hand, there is a strange pattern, like the mottled and cracked marks of a stone, spreading upwards from the wrist.

"The doctor has a different opinion about your situation." Cui explained, "I will try my best to convince him..."

"What is this?" Hasunuma interrupted her, and put the back of his hand in front of Cui: "It's cracked."

Cui's eyes fell on the back of her hand.

In the next moment, her heart beat, and a noun was almost blurted out.

Blame——

Cui's complexion was even paler.

She pursed her lips so as not to accidentally say that answer.

"It's 'blame', right?"

However, the girl on the hospital bed said the word coldly: "The punishment given by the gods to the ungodly apostles... the precursor of 'blame fall', isn't it? At first it just grows such ugly marks, and in the end it will Becoming a rampaging, destructive energy body, right?"

Cui's eyes moved, she quietly covered her face with her hands, and asked slowly: "How do you know, Belldandy?"

Hasunuma pulled up the quilt a little, and murmured, "It seems that Yuu and I are in the same situation."

Cui slowly lowered her hand.

The girl on the bed continued to narrate: "This time it's my turn to see strange things. 'Never seen people, never seen scenes'... Although, to be precise, just never seen It’s just a hand. At the same time, there are still many unfamiliar terms that have entered the memory, such as ‘Jian Luo’.”

"You and I are both 'retrieving the memory of the main body', so, like You, I will be 'frozen', right?" she asked.

"I..." Cui's eyelashes trembled, and she supported her forehead with her hands.

Although Tsui never told her about the content of the "Second Exorcist Project", through the dialogue between the researchers, Hasunuma can roughly introduce some key points.

She, Alma, and Yu all have "identities".

As for what kind of existence the artificial body she has now, she doesn't know.

Once hallucinations appear, seeing "people and scenery that have never been seen before" is to retrieve the "memory of the ontology".

Then, what the doctor called "losing their minds" and "going crazy" awaited them.

The more than [-] failed experiments in the past probably all ended in this way.

And her luck was better, although she succeeded simultaneously with Shengjie, she still had the same symptoms.To make matters worse, God punished her.Maybe God finally reacted, she scolded God head and face, or it was because she stabbed her companion with holiness, which made God unhappy.

"Beldandi, you may not become like that." Cui's face calmed down, she stood up, and calmly narrated: "Maybe everything will turn around."

"Where's Yuu?" Hasunuma asked, "Has he been frozen?"

Cui dodged her eyes.

Seeing Tsui's appearance, Hasunuma knew that the answer was probably yes.

Yu had already left her and Alma.

That unpredictable but extremely beautiful child...

Hasunuma showed a melancholy expression, and said with great sadness: "Thinking that I will soon have such an ending, I feel very sad. Before being frozen, Cui, I have one last last wish, please help me fulfill it."

"Beldandi, I will work hard..." Cui said in surprise.

"I hope that the two members of the Crow Club who roasted me that day can line up in front of me and say to me devoutly, 'I love you Beludandi, I shouldn't use flame feathers to roast you into a roast'." Hasunuma said sadly.

emerald:……

The lights in the room suddenly turned on, and the glass door of the isolation ward opened to both sides.Dr. Epstein and Miss Renee, who were wearing white robes, walked in one after another. Renee was still pushing a small cart full of medicines.

"Cui, take a break first." Dr. Epstein put on white gloves with his back to the hospital bed.

"Wait, doctor..." Cui stood up straight: "Beldandy, she..."

"Needless to say." Dr. Epstein put the gloves back together, and said slowly: "After freezing Beludandi, I will completely end this fruitless 'Second Exorcist' plan....The experiments over the past ten years have proved that the second exorcist plan will not succeed at all."

"Take off the IV." The doctor motioned to Miss Renee: "Cui, go and rest, I know you can't do it."

Cui looked desperate and took a few steps back.

Dr. Epstein shook his head, sighed, and pushed her out the door.

Through the glass door, Hasunuma could see Tsui's trance figure—she leaned against the glass door and sat down slowly.

The lights dimmed, and the line of sight returned to darkness.

There was the sound of clattering pages, and it was the doctor turning the pages.

The gurgling sound was Miss Renee pushing the cart to the side of the hospital bed.

Strange incantations floated to his ears slowly, mixed with drowsy magic.

An uproar flashed before Hasunuma's eyes, and another strange scene appeared.

"All kinds of causes and conditions are immeasurable."

"If a person suffers from suffering, he will die of old age and sickness."

"To speak of Nirvana, to end all sufferings."

"...His Royal Highness Mingyin? Are you listening?"

The wind blows snowflakes all over the sky, and a slender silhouette is reflected on the white shoji paper window.

A string of red sandalwood beads hung from the man's white fingers, and the hem of the black cassock dragged on the ground.

"It's snowing." The girl's clear and clear voice came.

"Yes, Your Highness Mingyin." The monk who couldn't see his face replied, "One day, there will be snow all over the world..."
