"What's that again...... What is the survivor of the [Smiling Coffin]?"

Shino now feels a little creepy when she hears that name. www.biquge.info has killed people without being sentenced, and even personal information does not need to be made public, just like an ordinary person who is completely different from each other. Live with such people...... Shino felt that she might understand that fear better than anyone else.

"Yes, it's the people in that guild. ”

"I have killed people, but I have not been held accountable...... Don't those who have the power to decide these things even think about the safety of others?"

Instead of first considering how to protect the safety of ordinary people, but only trying to do something like helping the murderer to turn over a new leaf, whether such a law is reasonable or unreasonable has long been widely questioned by many people. However, no matter how many voices of doubt there are, most countries are still acting like that, which has led to the fact that the vast majority of those players who killed people in the SAO were not punished, but their personal information was well hidden, and the so-called fear that they would be discriminated against after returning to society. As a teacher, Lévy is naturally very opposed to this practice, but he has neither the ability nor the perseverance to become a big man who can change this practice, so he can only complain, take care of the affairs around him, and protect the people around him.

"A man who has killed someone...... You don't deserve to be treated the same as other kind people, you don't have that qualification......"

"Of course, those people in the SAO guild are not worthy of sympathy, but if you want to say that if you have killed someone, you must be a bad person, which is not necessarily right?"

Although Levi has been relatively less heavy-handed over the years, he has not lost his life under his hands before. But now he is naturally not excusing what he has done, in essence, Levi doesn't care at all about being treated as a good person or a bad person.

"That's why you said that because you know about me?"

Shiina's eyes looked at Levi a little dimly, and her two big eyes kept shaking, a little dodgy but firmly controlled.

"No, I don't know, it's just a bit of speculation in general, and it's not clear how. ”

Shino wanted to question how Levi hadn't investigated his own affairs when someone who was so good at searching for information helped him. But Levi's honest eyes made the girl feel that maybe this man really hadn't asked anyone to investigate his own affairs.

That's right, his enemy is not me, why should he investigate my affairs?" Shino took a deep breath, but when she was about to speak, she found that this breath was far from enough, and immediately inhaled more cold air, as if this had finally cooled her boiling heart a little.

"What about me...... Ever killed someone. ”

Predictable.

Although Levi has been unsure, he has generally analyzed from various details what the shadow of the past that has been haunting the girl is. From her unusual reaction to the black pistol of the dead gun, it can be inferred that the incident is likely related to that type of pistol, and from the fact that she strongly resisted accepting it when she heard that someone was 'taking pleasure' in killing, it can be inferred that she had been in close contact with the matter of 'killing'. It is possible that he had witnessed someone being shot with the black pistol in front of him, and that the deceased was probably a friend of the girl's relatives. It's also possible that the girl herself used a black pistol like that to pull the trigger on someone else - in the real world, not in a game like GGO.

Now, the answer is revealed.

"Not in the game...... I was in the real world, and I had ever killed people. ”

The girl's body trembled slightly, like a wild cat shivering in the ice and snow, and Levi had to hug her tightly to get a little warmth.

"It happened five years ago, in my hometown, in a small town, where there was a robbery at gunpoint...... In that kind of town, such a thing is naturally big news. Media reports say that the prisoner was killed by a pistol after shooting a post office employee. But that's not the case......"

Five years ago, when Shi Nai was only 11 years old and had not yet entered middle school, it was reasonable and legal for the police to ask the media to change the way the news was written, especially if it was a minor who did not commit a crime, but could be regarded as a hero.

"The actual prisoner is me, who has had his pistol snatched from me...... ...... who shot and killed"

The so-called snatching of the pistol, in fact, the girl happened to get rid of the prisoner's gun in the fierce resistance, and then reflexively picked it up and pulled the trigger indiscriminately. Lévy didn't think that an elementary school girl could snatch an outlaw robber's gun as easily as Shino said. Her behavior at that time had no place to be associated with the word crime.

"I was only eleven years old at the time...... Maybe it's because I'm too young to understand anything that I can do something like that. There were no injuries other than two broken teeth, a sprained wrist on both hands, a bruise on the back and a dislocated right shoulder. In retrospect, it was a miracle. ”

Shiina's whole body relaxed on top of Lévy, her face pressed to his chest, and she muttered quietly as if it hadn't happened to her.

"It's just that although there are some minor injuries on the physical side, they are completely healed quickly. But there are still some things that have not been cured......"

Well-trained soldiers, after returning from the battlefield, need to undergo the necessary psychological intervention, and even many years later still cannot get rid of the trauma, suffering from the mental illness called post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD for short, and suffering from it for life. Soldiers are still like this, a little girl like Shino who has been living an ordinary life before, can't get out of that experience, it's really normal, but it's sad.

"After that time, whenever I saw a gun, I would vomit and even faint, even if it was a gun on TV or in a comic. The mere fact that someone imitates the shooting posture with their hands makes me ...... It was as if I saw the face of the man I had killed again...... It's scary, it's really scary......"

Levi hugged Shino and gently stroked her back, so that maybe it would give her a little peace of mind when she remembered the past.
