Chapter 196: Inception, the legendary technique
After listening to Shiori's memories, Chikage took out the "Hallows Record" and asked Shiori to see if the stone she got in an instant was a moonstone. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Shiori picked up the book and looked at it carefully, then said, "It seems that this is it." ”
The rest of the people couldn't help but laugh with joy when they heard this.
"Haha, that's great, it really is. If we can find this stone, we will have made another great achievement, and we will definitely become a hero in history. Araki was overjoyed, as if he had found a holy artifact.
"We had a lot of luck. Broken also said happily.
Chikage put the book away and immediately asked Shiori about Instant's whereabouts.
Shiori was depressed, "To be honest, I don't know where he is now. I haven't seen him again after that night.
Guanyue is missing, I think, I should be looking for her in an instant. But why is he in your dreams? I haven't ever had such a dream. ”
"We're here to find out where the dream comes from. Now it seems that it should be certain that the boy in the dream is Igarashi Instant, and the sister he is looking for is Igarashi Kanyue.
It's just that I don't know him, and it's really strange that he will appear in my dreams. ”
"That's all I can tell you, anyway. If you want to continue to investigate, it's best not to blatantly go to the village and ask people, because no one in the village wants to mention them. Otherwise, you will be attacked as you are today. ”
"Okay, then we'll find a way to investigate secretly. Thank you for telling us about the Igarashi brothers. ”
"You're welcome, and I hope to see them again. If you know where they are, please let me know. ”
"Of course, I'll let you know when the time comes. ”
"Thank you. Oh, I slipped out quietly and couldn't stay long. ”
Shiori saw that it was past twelve o'clock, and then got up and left.
After she left, Chikage said to Duan and the others, "That pet from the Igarashi family must be a demon spirit. ”
Shi Qi followed and said: "The demon spirit often flies out at night, so it should be to find someone with a spirit core in his body to replenish his energy. The villagers didn't wronged it, and those who died mysteriously probably died because it sucked out its divine power. ”
"That's right. And, it suddenly occurred to me that the demon spirit was most likely injured by me.
Two years ago, when I was on a mission in the Valley of the Full Moon, I met several people with demons. We got into a fight with them and killed both of them.
Thinking that the demon spirit should have died of its owner, it was left in the Valley of the Full Moon and no one cared about it, so I met the Igarashi brothers and sisters.
It turned out that the cause of the incident was this, and I have to say that it was really a coincidence. ”
"There is also such a antecedent, which is probably the so-called being guided by fate. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and then asked, "What should we do next?" The brother and sister disappeared a year ago, so they shouldn't be here. ”
"What is certain now is that the boy does have the Moonstone in his hand, and is using it to launch a large illusion. But his purpose should only be to find his missing sister, and he doesn't want to hurt the people who are controlled.
But I don't understand why he's looking for someone in his dreams, and his sister isn't in our dreams. ”
Chikage's words reminded Tokizaki that he remembered an illusion he had once seen in a book.
"It's a real possibility. There is a peculiar trick in illusion called 'Inception', in which the caster first hypnotizes himself, and then hides himself in other people's dreams, so that he can sleep in the depths of other people's dreams like hibernation.
And in order to avoid being discovered, it can also be constantly transferred, that is, from one person's dream to another's dream. ”
When Araki and October heard this, they exclaimed at the same time, "So peculiar?!"
"Hmm. But this trick only exists in books, and it is said that no one has ever learned it. Could it be that the little girl had learned such a legendary technique?"
disagreed, "But listening to Shiori's description, Guanyue should be a weak girl." And I feel that she may not even know such a thing as divine power, otherwise she wouldn't know anything about Xiaobai. And how did she learn this powerful trick?"
"Seven stars have a point. However, what Tokizaki said about the technique also provides us with a direction to think about. Suppose Guanyue used a rogue to hide himself in someone's dreams, then it makes sense to wander through various dreams in an instant.
In this case, let's not guess for now, and wait until we go to Igarashi's house in the evening to see if we can find any clues. ”
Chikage said that he would let everyone eat, after all, only when they have a full meal can they have the strength to work.
After nightfall, after estimating that the villagers were resting, Chikage arranged for Araki and October to sneak into the village to secretly investigate the Igarashi family.
And she, Broken and Tokizaki are guarding the cherry blossom trees.
Judging from the story Shiori told them and the reaction of the detection equipment last night, they thought that Instant would most likely appear in front of the tree around 12 a.m., and then set off from here to enter someone else's dream.
After several days of investigation and reasoning, this confusing incident has a rough outline, as long as the key person Igarashi can be found, I believe that everything can be solved.
However, things in the world are often close to success and unexpected changes.
October and Araki were rummaging through the siblings' room at the Igarashi family, but a few barrels of gasoline and two fires flew out of nowhere, pushing the Igarashi family's house into flames.
This is in the human world, not the void or the divine realm, even if October is a water system ability, looking at this fire is helpless, and in the end she and Araki had to escape from the fire in embarrassment.
When they came out, the killer was gone. In order to prevent the villagers from discovering that they had been here, the two immediately ran back to the mountain stronghold from the small road.
However, when they ran back to the team's stronghold, they found that the stronghold had also been attacked by unknown men.
The tent was upside down, the instruments were smashed in a mess, and the three of them, Bumad, Harada, and Omori, each suffered different degrees of trauma.
Araki ran to Bumad, who was lying on the ground, and helped him up, "Doctor, what's going on?"
Bu Crazy touched the wounds on his face and said: "Just now I was adjusting the instrument, and suddenly two men rushed in and smashed things indiscriminately. I tried to stop them with Harada and Omori, but they punched me a few times. ”
"What about the person who smashed things?"
"I just walked for a while. ”
"It's strange, who would have come to attack us out of nowhere, could it be the villagers?" said Harada, holding on to a rock, as he slowly stood up.
"Probably not, if it were them, they wouldn't be sneaky, wouldn't they blatantly besiege us during the day. ”
Speaking of this, October suddenly remembered Chikage's side, "Oops, Chikage, they're in danger. Araki, let's go over and see. ”
