Chapter 2: Fragments of Mirrors

"Do you live here?" Lu also stood in front of a restaurant.

The restaurant is neither big nor small, and it has a sign called Sunshine Hour, which is covered in dust.

"Well, the original home has been burned down. Zhai Di said while opening the glass door, and Lu Ye also saw the layout of the shop in the dark.

The layout of the restaurant is Japanese, with a kitchen in the middle, surrounded by a wooden bar counter, some menus on it, and several wooden barrels with chopsticks.

In addition to the bar, there are several tables outside, some photos and messages on the walls, and some cabinets dug inward, with some bottles or models inside.

When you come to the back door, you can see a non-no-entry employee passage, and there are two small rest rooms when you push it in.

One of the quilts was shrunk into a ball, and the walls around it were covered with various cut out newspapers, which were all the locations of the supernatural events that had occurred in Cloud City over the years, and it was obvious that Zhai Di was sleeping here.

The other rest room didn't even have a quilt, it was full of sundries, and the already small space was even more depressing.

Opening the back door, this place was satisfying to Lu Ye, a small courtyard that was empty except for the bathroom.

"At that time, my parents were going to expand the restaurant, open up this yard, put some potted flowers, and build an elegant pavilion, but this happened before the construction began. ”

Zhai Di stood in front of the small courtyard with a dazed expression, that fire destroyed everything in him, and the existence of the investigation task played a certain role in incentivizing, so that he would not become the kind of abandoned house where both parents died, there was a car and a house, but except for Yasa Xi, it was useless.

After visiting the residence, Lu Ye threw a mirror fragment in his hand, and to this day, there is still a shocking blood color on this mirror fragment.

Lu Ye looked at the fragment of the mirror in his hand, and the original picture appeared in his mind, when he walked into the alley, he was suddenly illuminated by a strong light, his eyes couldn't help but narrow, his left hand was raised to protect his eyes, and his right hand was opened in front of him, and Lu Ye, who was irradiated by the strong light to tears, vaguely saw a person holding a complete round mirror.

Then he felt a pain in the palm of his right hand, followed by a muffled voice in his ear, and he lost consciousness.

By the time he woke up, he had already turned into a soul body in the mirror fragments, and Zhai Di's aura was injecting, building a body around his soul body.

This piece of mirror fragment is Lu Ye's container, and Lu Ye's soul core is also in it, and this is what Zhai Di brought with him when he woke him up.

Lu Ye's current body is a semi-virtual state, and at first he couldn't even appear in front of people, until Zhai Di used the spiritualist ritual to inject all the spiritual light derived from his own spirit into Lu Ye's container, and Lu Ye wrapped his soul body with spiritual light, forming the current phantom body.

His current aura body is like a person who has not been exercised for many years, can contact all kinds of things like people, and has human organs, but these organs are all spiritual light illusions, because the aura is insufficient, so it seems very empty, and this layer of aura is still dissipating with the passage of time.

For the time being, Lu Ye's ability is not strong.

First, all the control methods were almost useless to him, and even the half-hanging slowdown spell that Zhai Di used on him at the beginning was not successful, but this control spell also added some aura to Lu Ye.

Second, most soul-like bodies have the ability to deter, Lu can also carry out a kind of psychic attack on the life form in his sight, making the target freeze, and it is also the deterrent attack that makes Lu Ye, who seems a little empty, educate Zhai Di to respect his seniors.

Third, Lu can also turn into a phantom and return to the container, an ability that is not considered an ability, and its effect is only to reduce the dissipation speed of the aura.

As for the other abilities, because Lu Ye has obtained too little aura, he has not figured it out for the time being, after all, he has only been awake for a few hours, and he is not a hanging remnant soul who is obviously the protagonist, but insists on saying that he does not have the aura of the protagonist, and he controls other lives when he wakes up.

Now it seems that the aura is an important resource to maintain its own existence, and the current aura can only maintain its own existence for more than half a month, if you want to be active outside and investigate the cause of your death, the consumption rate of the aura will be even more terrifying.

Thinking about it, Lu also glanced at Zhai Di, it seems that if you want to really find out the cause of your death, you still have to keep this guy first.

"What, I'm here to pay the grain. Lu Ye stared at Zhai Di with squinted eyes, said bad lines without changing his face, and threw the mirror fragment in his hand to Zhai Di.

He had an agreement with Zhai Di, Zhai Di was responsible for providing spiritual light and maintaining Lu Ye's existence, and Lu Ye followed Zhai Di into the investigation mission to help him complete the task.

"Senior, you have to talk about it. Zhai Di said with a bitter face, as a beginner psychic, he naturally has a spiritual existence, or it is precisely because of his spirituality that the mysterious voice found him before he was about to be smoked to death.

After two months of hard practice, Zhai Di barely got started, and now he has accumulated a total of 26 wisps of psychic aura, of which 3 wisps were used for experimental spells, 5 wisps were used to make props for the spirit summoning ceremony, and 7 wisps were used to summon Lu, and two spells were cast in order to resist, 4 wisps of spiritual light were used, and now there are 7 wisps left.

And Lu Ye now estimates that the whole body was composed of 7 rays of spiritual light at the beginning, and Zhai Di cast two spells on him, and he ingested 2 rays of spiritual light from them, which means that the current Lu Ye has about 9 rays of spiritual light, if it appears, then according to the calculation, the speed of spiritual light consumption is about one ray a day.

"What is my identity, I will definitely do what I have said. Lu Ye's eyes opened a little, and the smile on his face converged, looking extraordinarily sincere.

"Alright then, I can inject 5 rays of aura, leaving 2 rays of auras to cast a spell is my last bottom line. Zhai Di didn't have a choice, as a beginner psychic envoy, his spell level was half-baked, not to mention that the main combat power of the psychic envoy was still reflected in the spirit behind the control.

Zhai Di then injected 5 rays of spiritual light into the mirror fragments.

Lu Ye outside frowned, and his phantom-like body flashed back into the container, as if the aura had reached a certain level, allowing him to master some new abilities.

Zhai Di also held the mirror fragment and beat a drum in his heart, according to the description of the psychic inheritance, in addition to the basic ability, the soul-like body will master a new natal ability when it obtains more than 10 rays of spiritual light.

Zhai Di hopes that Lu Ye's natal ability can be stronger, so that he can better survive in the next investigation of the incident.

Not long after, a ray of light was projected from the mirror fragments, and Lu Ye's condensed body appeared again.

It's just that what makes Zhai Di strange is that Lu Ye looks a little strange this time, but for a while, he can't say that this strangeness is there.

It wasn't until Lu Ye raised his left hand to take over the fragment that Zhai Di had a feeling of sudden realization, and now Lu Ye was reversed, and he was the mirror man in the mirror.

As he explored, Lu Ye quickly understood what his new ability was-mirror doppelganger.

What was preserved in his container was no longer just the core of his soul body, but his soul body and body composed of spiritual light were stored in the mirror fragments.

The body in the mirror fragment slowed down a lot of aura consumption, and it took about three days to consume a ray of aura.

In addition, Lu was also able to project his spiritual light body in a way to form a mirror doppelganger.

This mirror clone has all the abilities of Lu Ye's aura body, and the strength of the body is similar, the previous aura body will dissipate after being completely killed, and even if the current mirror clone is killed, Lu Ye only needs to consume a ray of aura to be able to separate a mirror clone again.

Of course, after Lu Ye obtained this ability, he also had some bold ideas.

For example, when projecting a mirror doppelganger, reconstruct your own body structure to achieve the effect of changing clothes in one second, or changing your appearance in one second.

Or projected two mirror doppelgangers, combined with the previous idea of changing the body structure, maybe there can be something and that.

As a result, in response to Lu Ye's bold idea, reality gave a cruel response, the mirror doppelganger can only be a mirror image of his spiritual body, which cannot be reconstructed at the time of projection, and as for projecting multiple mirror doppelgangers, there are also obstacles and it is difficult to complete.

For the time being, Lu Yexin's ability is just to make it easier for him to survive.

This made Zhai Di a little disappointed, but he also felt good, in fact, in the face of danger in the investigation incident, a person's ability is too weak, maybe it is easier to complete the task with a few chances of resurrection.

After adapting to his new abilities for a while, Lu Ye took the mirror fragment in Zhai Di's hand, and his mind turned quickly.

"Wait......" Lu Ye suddenly frowned and found that things were not simple, it seemed that with the replenishment of the aura, his thinking became clearer and smarter, according to news reports, the blood-stained mirror had been used as evidence and stored in the evidence room of the police station, Zhai Di had no relatives and no reason, and it was almost impossible to get evidence from the police station.

"Where did you get this mirror?" Lu Ye suppressed the doubts in his heart and asked Zhai Di.

And Zhai Di was also stunned for a moment and said: "A classmate of mine gave it to me, he is a good person, he also came to visit me after I took a leave of absence, and found that I was collecting supernatural information, so he gave me this mirror fragment, he said that when he cleaned up the school sports goods warehouse, he found it inside, and when he found it, this fragment was wrapped in a newspaper that reported your incident." ”

"I had already been to a total of six places in Cloud City that were rumored to be haunted, but they were all false rumors, and after getting the mirror fragment, and the place where you died had been rumored to be haunted, I went to that alley to perform the spirit summoning ritual with the mentality of giving it a try. Zhai Di said: "I didn't want to really summon you." ”

"Is it in the school's warehouse?" Lu Ye nodded, but more questions emerged in his heart: "When I was asleep, I didn't exist in this container, so either I am a special deceased and don't need a container, or there is another container in that alley." ”

"Looks like we'll have to go back and rediscover the alleys and the school's sports warehouse. ”

At this moment, Zhai Di's face suddenly became extremely ugly, he covered his chest with one hand, and beads of sweat the size of beans continued to overflow from his forehead.

Whenever an investigation mission begins, his body reacts like this to remind him of what he will face next.

Zhai Di, who didn't have time to say more, picked up the backpack on one side, and shouted to the landing: "Help me!"

Looking at Zhai Di's bright eyes, Lu also put the blood-stained mirror fragment in his hand in Zhai Di's hand, and Lu Ye's figure also turned into spiritual light and returned to the mirror.

Zhai Di endured the pain and nausea, and the world in front of him changed rapidly, turning into writhing and chaotic lines, and then disappeared into the restaurant.
