Episode 40: Two Souls

It was a soft, misty light, although it was not dazzling, but against the backdrop of the dark back#scene, it was still enough to make Ling Qi close his eyes.

"Will you sympathize with me, will you be ashamed of me?"

"Yes, although that's not my intention. Ling Qi's voice trembled a little.

"Then, you need my body to fulfill your wishes, isn't that mine?"

"Indeed...... No. His heart was beating wildly, like a criminal full of evil waiting for the final judgment.

"In that case, will you let me come back?"

- After a long silence, Ling Qi seemed to have suddenly made up his mind, and bravely raised his head, his eyes blooming with a resolute look:

"You say, we are the same person, so how can there be a difference between coming back and not coming back? If you have always been there, I look forward to living with you, and if you are long gone, I will watch you go away. ”

"Yes, you can accept my family, my life, my everything, but I can't accept you. ”

"Unfortunately, there seems to be no choice. Now, your family is my family, and your life is also my life, but you can't solve the next thing. I don't just want to fulfill my wishes, I also want to protect these people who love you and love me, and protect everything you and I have enjoyed together. ”

"You...... It's kind, but it's also cruel. ”

Ling Qi's voice disappeared. Except for the "words" that were directly imprinted into Ling Qi's heart, this endless sea of consciousness was simply an absolutely silent void, and any slight sound would be infinitely amplified.

For example - the sound of something shattering.

Like the Pangu Egg in the chaos breaking its shell, the sound was enough to shake Ling Qi's heart. He noticed that the originally invisible barrier in front of him had cracked like a spider's web, expanding and increasing over time until it was all shattered. Ling Qi's image was no longer in any way, a little closer, a little clearer, her hand had already touched Ling Qi's face.

"You are strong and pathetic. ”

"Maybe God can't bear to see me die so inexplicably. ”

"But the price you've paid is too much. ”

"The price, if I can live again, what right do I have to care about the price?"

Ling Qi's image suddenly burst into a distressed wry smile, and he opened his arms to surround Ling Qi, and the two souls gradually coincided together.

"Since it can't be recovered, then you can forget your past with peace of mind, adapt to my identity, accept my life, and pursue the happiness that belongs to you and me......"

This was the last sentence that Ling Qi left in Ling Qi's heart. The two souls completed the final fusion, and Ling Qi felt a large amount of memories rush into his consciousness like a surging torrent in an instant, and at the same time, a dazzling brilliance burst out with himself as the center, mercilessly dispelling the darkness around him, turning the entire sea of consciousness into a vast white ......

"Ah!!h

Screaming hysterically, the girl wrangled from the bed like a spring, grabbed her head tightly with both hands, as if she was suffering from bone-crushing pain, and a large amount of cold sweat instantly soaked her clothes.

"Doctor!Doctor!!" Lin Fan hurriedly pressed Ling Qi's shoulders to stop her struggle, his voice distorted with horror. Jin Yanling and Guan Ying next to them were stunned for a moment, and immediately grabbed the door and went out to ask for help.

A few minutes later, a doctor rushed into the ward with a nurse, and was a little surprised to see Ling Qi's state. The doctor looked at it calmly for a while, then turned to the nurse and said, "Let the patient settle down first, and give her a sedative!" The nurse immediately put down the medicine tray in her hand, took out a sedative injection from it, and began to prepare.

Jian Yujie always stood in the corner of the ward and stared at Ling Qi intently, not letting go of a single detail. He happened to be watching the game in the gymnasium at the time, and immediately followed after seeing Ling Qi accidentally injured. Strangely, there was no worry on the boy's face, but a mixture of curious apprehension. When the nurse squeezed out the first drop of medicine from the needle tube to confirm that it could be injected, he suddenly spoke: "Wait a minute, don't rush to inject first, her condition is starting to stabilize!"

Indeed, Lin Fan's hand pressing the girl's shoulders could no longer feel the crazy struggle just now, and Ling Qi's mood seemed to slowly stabilize, but her body was still trembling irregularly. The doctor frowned and approached for a moment to observe, and explained to Lin Fan: "The patient was hit the head, and there may be hallucinations. However, the conditions here in our school hospital are limited, and if this kind of abnormal mood occurs again, it is recommended that you go to a major hospital for a careful examination, just in case. ”

"No...... No need. Lin Fan was about to answer, but Ling Qi preemptively spoke, although his voice was weak, his tone was very firm.

"Ah Qi, you scared me just now, don't hold on if you feel uncomfortable, I'll arrange for you to be transferred to the hospital immediately!" Lin Fan said worriedly, and the hand on the girl's shoulder unconsciously increased a little strength.

Ling Qi slowly took Lin Fan's hand away and said softly, "Trust me, I'm fine, I don't want to go anywhere now, let me rest for a while, okay?"

"If this doesn't happen again, just stay and keep me informed. After speaking, the doctor left the ward with the nurse, since the medical staff also had this opinion, Lin Fan couldn't say anything, his two hands were awkwardly fixed in the air, and he didn't dare to touch the girl's body again.

Ever since his mood stabilized, Ling Qi had been hanging his head and his hands around his bent knees to cushion his forehead. Her sweat-soaked hair hung down on the sides of her cheeks, making it impossible for others to see her face, and there was a deathly silence in the hospital room.

In strong contrast to his quiet appearance, Ling Qi's heart was tumbling over the river. Ever since she regained consciousness, she felt that there were many fragments of broken memories in her mind that did not belong to her, as if they had been stirred out of the depths of her brain with the unexpected impact. Finally getting rid of the nerve pain caused by the discovery of a large amount of information, she began to try to recall the meeting with another soul in the sea of consciousness.

Is it the reality that he touched the depths of the sea of consciousness, or is it an illusion created by delirium? Ling Qi couldn't tell the difference, he only felt that his heart was much fuller, as if his soul was no longer as empty and mutilated as before, that feeling was very subtle, and it was indescribable.

The details of the contact with that soul were almost forgotten when I woke up, except for the last sentence: "Since it is irretrievable, then you can forget your past with peace of mind, adapt to my identity, accept my life, and pursue the happiness that belongs to you and me......"

Happiness that belongs to me and belongs to you?

We are all of different genders, how can we find the same happiness? Besides, if my past is forgotten, it will be forgotten, so what is the point of my rebirth?

There was a noisy discussion outside the ward, and the two couples of 309, Tao Li Qi and Li Feng, all arrived. Jin Yanling and Guan Ying hurriedly walked out the door and led the crowd away from the ward.

"Ah Qi, are you feeling better, do you want to lie down and rest?" Lin Fan saw that Ling Qi had not moved for a long time, and was a little worried, "I'm sorry Ah Qi, I shouldn't have let you sit in such a dangerous position, I didn't arrange ......"

Ling Qi was silent for a while, then raised his head and smiled weakly: "It's okay, it's just an accident, it's not your fault." After saying that, she moved her body, and Lin Fan quickly stood up and held her neck and shoulders to help Ling Qi lie down smoothly.

Although the back of the head was treated and bandaged, there was still a dull pain. Ling Qi remembered that he had just been admitted to the hospital because he had been injured by hooligans not long ago, and now he had come again, and a bitter smile of self-deprecation appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When people are unlucky, they really stuff their teeth when they drink cold water.

A somewhat dull mobile phone ringtone, Jian Yujie, who was leaning on the corner, listened attentively, picked up the women's backpack hanging on the back of the chair and walked to the bedside, groped for Ling Qi's mobile phone and handed it over. Ling Qi nodded slightly in thanks, and couldn't help frowning when he saw the name displayed on his phone. Her gaze swept over Jian Yujie and Lin Fan, signaling them to avoid it for a while, and the two boys walked out of the ward with great interest.

"I heard that you were injured while watching a ball game, are you in the school hospital now?" Fang Xiyuan's voice came from the microphone, and his tone was a little anxious and blameful.

"Yes, a little injury, just an accident. ”

"The school hospital is unreliable, I'm going to pick you up for transfer, it's about half an hour, I've just set off from the city now. ”

"No need, the doctor said I'm fine, just rest for a few days. ”

“…… How is it better than last time?"

"Almost, don't show your face if you're fine, there's a lot of people here. ”

“…… Well, call me right away if there's any problem. ”

"Got it, I'll rest for now. ”

Ling Qi closed her phone, she didn't want too many people to know about her dealings with Fang Xiyuan, so she simply refused to visit Xi Shao this time.

Her eyes were slight, and a wave of tiredness came over her, and the girl gradually fell asleep. In a trance, the girl who was exactly like herself reappeared.

"Actually, I don't want to bear your memory, although you and I are one, but after all, it is your past, I am just an uninvited ghost, unworthy of your past, present and future. ”

"I know that this is the path you must follow, don't lose your nature because of hatred, don't cling too much to the confinement of gender. You have to continue to live for me, to find the person who can truly save, care, and tolerate you. ”

"I need time. ”

"At least, you'll have that heart, and those memories will be worth it. ”

"Unfortunately, my current attachment is not because of hatred. ”

"What's the reason for that?"

"Because of ideals, because of beliefs, because of ...... Those who love me need me to protect them. ”

"That's what makes you better than me, thank you. ”

"No, thank you for giving me this opportunity. ”

The image of her parents and Lin Cangxi's shadow flashed in her mind, and the girl secretly clenched her fists.
