———— "death".

This is not something strange to Shino.

It's not that Shi Nai has experienced death, but death is always with her.

At first, it was my father.

Shino had never seen her father's face.

When Shino was two years old, her father died in a traffic accident.

On that day, my father and mother took Shino, a family of three, to my mother's hometown for the New Year, so they drove on a county in the northeast, but the car was driving on the old single-lane road that stretched along the slope of the hillside, and the car came from the opposite lane, and the big truck that had no time to turn directly hit it.

At that time, the truck driver broke through the windshield and fell on the road, killing instantly.

On the right, Shino's small car, which was hit by a truck, jumped over the guardrail and fell down the hillside, where it was stopped by two trees.

At this time, although the father who was driving the car was seriously injured unconscious, it was not immediately dead, the mother in the assistant's seat only had a simple fracture of her left thigh, and the young Shino was not desperate because the seat belt of the baby seat in the back seat was almost uninjured.

Unfortunately, on that road that is not often used, especially late at night, it is so inaccessible that even the phone in the car was damaged by the impact, and it was not discovered until the next morning that the car passing by the old road noticed that there was an accident.

But that was six hours later.

During these six hours, Shino's mother could only watch her father, who was gradually cold due to internal bleeding and finally died because of it, and finally had a nervous breakdown, and her mental age returned to her teens before she met her father.

At that time, Shino experienced the closest death in her life.

The second closest death to Shino occurred five years ago.

At that time, my mother and Shino had already left Tokyo and returned to my mother's home to live a frugal life in the countryside.

Fifteen years have passed since that accident.,The mentally disturbed mother may just regard Shino as a sister.,But fortunately, she still loves Shino deeply.,Read picture books every night.,Sing lullabies to her.,So Shina's mother in memory is always a fragile girl who is easily injured.,Let Shino often tell herself from the beginning of her sensibility that she must be strong.,To protect your mother.。

For Shino at that time, the outside world was full of various elements that disturbed her mother's peaceful life, and she always thought that she must protect her mother.

However, this idea eventually led to the current Shino.

Shino will never forget that day.

On that day, Shino went to the post office with her mother, but encountered a robber who broke into the post office.

At that time, the robber was armed with a black star.

It was in 1932, the Soviet Army officially adopted the imitation of the "Tokarev TT33", using 30 caliber, that is, 7.62 mm steel core bullets, a lot of gunpowder, the muzzle velocity of the bullet can exceed the speed of sound, has the most powerful penetration of the pistol, but because of the excessive recoil, in the 1950s was replaced by the Soviet Union with a miniaturized 9 mm "Makarov" pistol, the full name of the pistol ———— "May Fourth Type Black Star Pistol".

Armed with such a gun, the prisoner shot a post office employee who tried to call the police, and turned the gun at someone else.

Unfortunately, Shino's mother was on the side, crushed by fear, and finally screamed uncontrollably.

Hearing her mother's scream, Shino rushed up almost subconsciously, bit the prisoner's arm, snatched the opponent's pistol in the struggle, and "shot the opponent" ———— at the end.

Yes.

This is a death created by Shino's own hands.

Even though Shino was completely blank at the time, with a strong desire to protect her mother, she led to such an action, but Shino did pull the trigger on the other party again and again when the prisoner rushed towards him angrily.

Later, it was reported that the prisoner died because of the explosion of the gun.

As for Shina, there were no other external injuries other than two broken teeth, two wrist sprains, back bumps, and a dislocated right shoulder.

These injuries were quickly healed.

However, there are also injuries that have not been cured.

Since then, Shino will vomit or faint whenever she sees a gun, not even a pistol that she imitates on TV, in comics, or even with her hand.

As soon as she saw the gun, Shino seemed to be able to see the face of the man when he was killed by him, and saw the scene of the other man smiling at him with blood on his eyebrows pierced by bullets, and his eyes wide.

In other words, Shino suffers from mental illness.

Post-traumatic stress syndrome.

This is the incurable wound that Shino suffers from.

Shino did not regret choosing to shoot at that time.

However, her body, heart, and spirit were out of her control, and she couldn't stand the sight of guns and the things related to them.

This makes Shino feel like he is just saying high-sounding beautiful words in his mouth, "no regrets", in fact, he has always regretted it, and he shouldn't have become like this in order to protect his mother.

And the psychiatrists will only say things like "we understand you", but they can't let Shi Nai go.

That's why Shino wants to get stronger, and she wants to have the courage to say, "In that case, it's only natural for me to do that."

In such a situation, Shino meets Kyoji by chance, and enters GGO under Kyoji's introduction, and is able to get in touch with guns again.

The amazing thing is that maybe the body in the imaginary world is virtual, or the feeling when touching a gun still can't be fully reproduced after all, in this world, when Shino touches a gun, not only does it not have a seizure, but also likes several types of firearms.

From that time on, Shino felt that as long as he became the strongest player in this world, he would definitely become stronger in the real world.

"As long as I continue to defeat enemies stronger than that bandit, come into contact with a gun more powerful than that black star, get used to them, and surpass them, then my experience in this world will definitely become a heart and spirit enhancer, so that I can also surpass them in the real world and become stronger."

With this thought, Shino will pursue a strong enemy almost paranoidly, using the anti-materiel sniper rifle as a mass killing weapon to make his heart and spirit stronger, and one day, affect himself in the real world.

But now...

"Knock knock knock knock knock knock knock - "

Shina's heart beat faster and faster as if it were unlimited, causing her to breathe rapidly, cold sweat flowing, her whole body convulsed, her head went blank, and she couldn't help herself at all.

It's the same feeling as when you come into contact with a gun in the real world.

It's just that, this time, Shino is not because she came into contact with the gun, but because she senses the arrival of the third death.

Do you have to face it again?

Could it be that after the first two times, I still have to usher in death again after all?

But the first time, she was lucky not to die and let her father die, and the second time, she tried her best to kill others and let herself live, this time, who had to sacrifice?

Yourself?

Or, this teenager who came to save himself?

If he can escape this death, will the young man in front of him have to die?

Killed by yourself?

"Nope! Never! ”

So, fear rose in her heart and made Shino cry out.

"You... You go...! Come on...! ”

It's a pity that Luo Zhen turned a deaf ear, and when his durability was only twelve points left, he raised the dagger in his hand high, burst out with more power than any previous time, and resolutely slashed down.

"Smack!"

With a crisp sound, the dagger severed the chains.

"Bang!"

The durability of the severed chains is completely reduced to zero, and the polygonal fragments explode and disappear.

"Drop!"

At this time, the countdown is ———— "0:02".

Luo Zhen didn't hesitate and hugged Shi Nai directly.

It didn't take long...

"Boom ————!"

In the warehouse street, the sound of explosions rang out, making the fire soar into the sky and endure for a long time.
