It's changed.

Qing Ye knows this.

In other words, from the time he first came into contact with the unspeakable and ate the projection of His presence in the surface world into his mouth, there was an unusual change in what he called "affective deficit".

Because he was indescribable, he was excited and longing.

In the many battles that followed, these emotions that Aono had never experienced before actually became the driving force behind his battles.

- Lower-level creatures, as well as those low-level unspeakable, are indeed delicious!

But it is undeniable that it is indeed people's instinct to chase what they do not have.

It's just that under normal circumstances, Aono still doesn't be scared or afraid, a lot of negative emotions don't get into his brain, and his reason doesn't flow like ordinary people, and he can be calm and normal in the face of enemies.

It's still playing its role.

Can ...... now

Aono carefully reflected on the feeling he felt when he remembered the black mist, and he was sure that he was not subconsciously camouflaging!

But there was still a faint, bitter almond-like feeling that spread through his heart.

"It's ......"

Aono lowered his head and muttered to himself.

"Sad?"

Regretful.

Sad.

In short, such emotions are not rich, just a puff of smoke, as if the breeze is licking the skin.

Not only that, Aono thought of a sentence that Kanda Yukie said when he woke up from his dream - "Aono-kun, are you crying?" ”

You know, after leaving the mental hospital, Aono has never cried once.

After all, in the vast majority of the situations he faced.

Crying never solves any problem, it is the most useless expression, so much so that Aono has never even disguised it.

This doesn't mean that Aono can't be disguised.

On the contrary, in his previous life, in order to learn this expression, Aono made countless attempts and exercises.

As we all know, crying is a physiological phenomenon.

At birth, because of the waste fluid remaining in the mouth, nose and throat, people will naturally cry to keep their breathing smooth.

When you encounter pain, you will subconsciously cry when you get sand in your eyes.

But there is also a kind of crying, which is the catharsis of emotions, and when they are afraid and sad, some human beings will have the performance of "crying".

For Aono, the latter is something that cannot be done.

He simply couldn't understand what it meant to be "scared" and what it meant to be "sad", and it was impossible to talk about crying with the help of these emotions.

But the doctor who was in charge of reviewing whether Aono could be discharged from the hospital took this as a criterion for whether Aono really had emotions.

Naturally, Aono had to try to learn to control this physiological response.

The way of training, viewed in ordinary people's thinking, is naturally unconventional and cruel, such as actively stimulating the tear ducts, smearing the eyeballs with dust, and so on.

The principle boils down to the fact that with the help of thousands of physiological tears and the cooperation of small movements, an effect similar to "conditioned reflex" is formed, so as to achieve the purpose of crying if you want to cry, so as to achieve perfect camouflage.

Even now that Aono thinks about it, the "training" during that time was extremely painful and torturous.

Nearly blinded one eye.

Even if it hurts, you have to deliberately avoid the doctor, in case he sees his intentions.

Aono's left hand stroked his cheek, and his index finger pressed gently on the two or three knuckles below the eyelid of his left eyelid.

Cold tears flowed from the corners of his eyes and rolled down his cheeks as scheduled.

- This is Aono's action when he tears in conjunction with physiological stimulation, which is about the same as blowing a whistle when feeding a dog, and over time he will drool when he hears the whistle.

But.

"It's different."

Aono looked at the tear stains on the pillow on the bed and came to a conclusion.

"It's different."

They're completely different things.

The emotions that I once worked hard to pursue were placed in front of Aono in this way.

But Aono was not as happy as expected.

Having regained these emotions, has I become stronger or weaker? ’

Aono pondered the question.

——————————

Ground floor, inside the kitchen.

Yukie Kanda is preparing breakfast for Aono.

I have to mention that during this period of time, Kanda Snow Painting still has some changes that are visible to the naked eye.

For example, the height has increased from 1.52 meters to 1.54 meters!

A huge increase of two millimeters!

At that time, when she was tall, the little girl even jumped up with joy.

Black hair, grow a little longer.

Petite figure, slightly undulating.

It has probably risen from A to B-, and has changed from a poor to a slightly curved steel plate, which is gratifying.

In fact, Kanda Yukie's body proportions are still very good.

For example, the two legs can be described as "slender" in terms of her height, and the skeleton is very well born - her figure does not make people feel like Lori, she is a miniature version of the beauty, like a delicate porcelain doll.

It's just that the body is petite, and it usually can't be seen.

Kanda Yukie's face is also much softer than when he first met Aono.

When Aono was in an ancient country, Kanda Yukie didn't just stay at home and do nothing.

During this time, she was involved in several very dangerous operations.

"Very dangerous" is more than just words.

In one operation, there were a total of ten people in the group, and the last to return, including Kanda Yukie, was only three, and she herself suffered a lot of injuries, and it took a week to recover.

Kanda Yukie showed extraordinary decision-making and execution in his actions, and assumed the role of the backbone.

To the relief of Ayaka Hino and the extraordinary members of the Tokyo Rangers, he said that he had not seen the wrong person.

Due to the atmosphere of the second year of the Japanese country, she was also given a not-so-nice nickname - "Ghost Girl" or "Daughter of Hell".

The reason is that every time Kanda Yukie uses yin qi to fight, the scene is full of yin qi and ghosts, coupled with her fierce face, not to mention the general public, even the colleagues in the Tokyo Rangers are scared enough, so there is such a nickname.

However, in fact, Kanda Yukie's character has softened a lot.

The reason is that she has met a lot of new companions and new friends, and her closed heart has gradually opened.

Of course, the more important reason is that Aono finally returned safely.

And she can make breakfast for Aono here.

For Kanda Yukie, who has already experienced many cruel sacrifices, this is already a very happy thing.

"By the way, Aono-kun, it seems a little different......

Kanda Yukie recalled the scene in the room, she was no longer the innocent little girl she used to be, and she naturally had sharp nerves after experiencing many dangers.

The changes I felt from Aono were strange.

The girl didn't know how to describe it.

It was as if an invisible film had been torn off Aono's body, revealing a side he had never shown in front of himself, making him more real and ...... More like a normal person?

'Normal people? What a strange statement. ’

Kanda Yukie was puzzled, and finally put aside the distractions in his heart for a while, and shouted upstairs.

"Aono-kun, it's time to eat!"
