After all, with the development of science, human beings have become less and less aware of the existence of such a thing as a "soul", and the essence and pure will of the soul have gradually drifted away from them.

Humanity has proven that it doesn't need these things to live.

Dior walked towards Su Xiang's casino with a cigarette in his mouth. Maybe it's just that she's a little unhappy that she lost to that guy, and she won't allow that kind of thing to run away if she wins. Touching her pocket, she remembered that she had exchanged some money at the bank when she came, and she didn't know if she had taken it when she changed clothes in the laboratory.

But in the end, she only found a loose coin and a ten-tael bill, and then she remembered that the dress didn't seem to be hers, no wonder her chest felt loose. She looked around and saw 'amber' inserted in the styrofoam on the side of the street, which appeared crystal clear in the light.

No, it's just sugar. Bamboo skewers are placed on a heated iron plate, a picture is drawn with melted caramel, and then the painted sugar is picked up completely with a shovel and cooled and hardened in the air. It's just such a simple technique, Dio showed a somewhat nostalgic look on his face and walked to the stall.

"Oh, this girl is so pretty. The old woman who was doing the candy art looked at her with a smile, and she didn't have any strange thoughts because of her blonde hair.

"How much is this?" Dior pointed to the largest, dragon-shaped candy that was supported by four bamboo sticks.

"Is this one? a silver tael. ”

Dior frowned, and was just about to leave, but he saw that the old woman was talking to her at the same time, the spoon skillfully moved on the iron plate, and a lovely face gradually took shape on the iron plate, and the hair on the left sideburn was tied with braids, but it was Dio's face. Then the old woman picked up the candy and handed it to Dior without saying a word. While the girl was still in a daze, the old woman spoke:

"I'll give you this, don't keep a sad face, the current male babies like that kind of cheerful female babies. ”

“... Thank you. ”

Dior was silent for a moment, then smiled and took the candy from the old woman. She sniffed and licked it gently, the taste in her mouth was no different from what she remembered, only it felt a little bitter. Probably, it's just a psychological effect.

Maybe Ihittab and Sakuya will like it. She hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the smaller-like candy and asked:

"How much does this cost?"

"Five cents. ”

The gap is really big, she doesn't understand what the difference is between that dragon and this rooster, but the value is so different. Bought this little candy and turned to leave. After walking for a while, she turned into the alley and looked at the old woman from afar. Until it was late at night, the old woman staggered, put away her stall, and slowly pushed the cart away, and no one ever bought candy again.

Contentment is a good thing, even if you have nothing, you can be self-absorbed. But when you look back, you will find that you have nothing.

Dior turned his head and threw the two pieces of candy into the trash.

It's just self-gratification, what's the use.

Su Xiang was not in the casino, and after Dior asked Xiao Er and the patrol in the store, he confirmed that Su Xiang had never come back since he went out with him last time.

She didn't feel a trace of unhappiness, and when she looked at the place where Su Xiang was originally sitting, she found that there was another person sitting there. It's someone I've never seen before, her white hair looks very gorgeous at first glance, and if you look closely, you can find that a lot of her hair is still black, like dyed hair, and the clothes on her body are also very ordinary, not like Su Xiang who is wearing gorgeous clothes. Dior frowned, has this casino found a new 'backer'? Or is it just used to hide people's eyes?

The white-haired woman suddenly raised her head and stared at her intently. A wonderful feeling came from the bottom of Dior's heart, and she felt for no reason that this guy was not an ordinary person.

In the bustling casino, Dior could not tell whether her heartbeat and body temperature were normal, so she simply walked over and looked condescendingly at the white-haired woman who was sitting cross-legged on the ground.

"I knew you were coming, Dio Connor. "In this cold weather, the white-haired woman is also holding a folding fan in her hand and fanning the wind.

"Who are you, who are you?" Dior narrowed her eyes, and as she got closer, she began to smell her.

Although her appearance, hair, and clothing are very ordinary, if you look closely, you will find that there are no blemishes on her skin, and her standard facial features seem to have been carved out of a certain mold. The normal level of a slightly slower heartbeat in humans is also lower than the body temperature.

"Let me guess, you and You Guang know each other, or maybe you don't just know each other. ”

"It's the same as the rumors, it's really a keen insight," she said, shaking her fan, turning her eyes to the candle lit beside her, "I don't need to guess, I'm Bai Ze." Hobbies are drinking and admiring the moon, Dior, I'm interested in you. ”

As she spoke, she gestured to the cushion in front of her, as if to make Dio sit down. But Dio stared at her motionlessly, ignoring her. She shrugged her shoulders and continued:

"Of course, it doesn't matter to me how that idiot is Youguang, it's better to say that the relationship between the two of us is closer to that of an enemy. Hawkers, no matter what kind of hatred it is, after more than 5,000 years, it will always fade away, not to mention that I just smeared her a little to this extent. If the relationship is calculated according to positive and negative, it should still be above zero. ”

"That is to say..."

"I'll just say it straight, I'm here to 'challenge you'," Bai Ze put the fan away, "I'm different from that guy from Youguang, I won't make a big move if I lose." Just do it your way, the rules of the game are up to me, and I can tell you all my abilities. As for the bet, of course it's that stone. If I lose, I'll help you deal with the youkai that will trouble you later, and by the way, completely free that fox from my abilities, and... I'll show you a fairyland, how about it?"

"Oh?" Dior frowned, "but what if I lose?"

"It's very simple," Bai Ze unfolded the folding fan again, covering his mouth, and the six words "The Road to Heaven and Infinite Man" were written on the white paper fan, "I will erase all traces of your existence in this world, everyone will forget your existence, and then you must stay in the fairyland forever." ”

"It seems that I have no reason to refuse, starting with your ability. Dior raised an eyebrow.

"Well, this point is also considered from the perspective of "information fairness", because I know your ability," Bai Ze smiled slightly, "I can know what has happened, of course, it is not instantaneous. Of course, it is impossible for the human mind to know. The other thing is related to the "past", I can create a history, I can also erase a history, the history I create is not necessarily real, and only my ability can erase the history I have created. Of course, such an ability cannot really erase a person from history, you should have experienced it. Making history is also the same as creating memories, and it's a good skill to introduce yourself. ”

"That's all?"

"That's all, although I can't say the same as you, but... For the sake of fairness, I won't lie for the time being," Bai Ze shook his fan leisurely, as if he didn't take Dior into account at all, "The rules of the game... It's not that simple. Before the game starts, you'll get a chance to say the last word to someone you know, and then the game will begin..."
