Chapter 304: Contradictions

Thunder and lightning swept down, tearing apart the dark night.

The black Grim Reaper dragged the rusty scythe across the iron-gray tombstones.

But the illusory figure of the Grim Reaper dissipated in an instant, replaced by a young man with iron-gray scales on his face. The boy sat on his tombstone and looked at himself with interest.

"You...... Good? The phantom tentatively greeted him.

"Hello, Phantom." For some reason, the boy accentuated the word "phantom", "It's funny, you...... It's you, you're just you, that's all...... It's really interesting, although maybe for me, it's not too rosy. ”

The phantom didn't understand what the boy was talking about, he didn't even know the boy in front of him...... It's just that it feels familiar inexplicably-

"That...... I'm sorry, I really don't know you...... But I thought, do you know my essence? The phantom asked tentatively, and he guessed that maybe the young man in front of him was Xiao Yao's old friend.

The boy smiled shallowly: "It's not the time yet...... I won't answer any of your questions. Be patient, at least for now, I sincerely hope you can be happy. ”

The boy stood up on the tombstone, his hands spread out to form a sacred cross with his body, and at this moment thunder and lightning fell from the sky, illuminating the young man's pale blue eyes.

……

The phantom sat up from the bed suddenly, and the scene in the dream with unknown meaning always made him feel like he was having a nightmare for some reason.

"Oh my God, I won't...... Did you dream of the main body? Phantom Cast thought of a somewhat surprising speculation, what he saw might not be Xiao Yao's old friend at all, but Xiao Yao himself, "It's really possible...... is worthy of Xiao Yao in Luo Mengyun's mouth, and sure enough, that sense of oppression is terrible...... It's a pity, if he hadn't died......"

The phantom didn't continue, he knew very well - if Xiao Yao hadn't died, he wouldn't have been able to have his current self at all.

"But that's proof of one thing...... The King of the Gray Wing and Xiao Yao are definitely connected, every time I see it, I have such a strange dream, and the young man who is suspected of being Xiao Yao in the dream is getting clearer and clearer...... "Similar dreams have appeared before, the phantom pondered for a while, but he still couldn't guess the identity of the King of the Gray Wing, "It seems that when I go back over there in the future, I have to ask Luo Mengyun and Dong Bin about them...... They should know what the Greywing King is......"

Formulate...... He remembered the shocking words of the Gray Wing King last night, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, and rebelled against the passerby? If this topic were to appear at the meeting table of the Awakened Family, the person who raised the question would probably have one of two endings - either they would be found to be executed by an inner ghost, or they would be sent directly to a mental hospital.

It's almost impossible - even if they retain a certain amount of human feelings, they are still passers-by in the end......

The degree of spiritual alienation of a transcendent person like a passerby is definitely the highest among all transcendental beings. The awake basically retains humanity, while the dead highlight the wildness of human beings, but the passers-by ...... If there is a definition, their spiritual world is that "divinity" is more important than human nature.

How to use human logic to convince alienated non-human beings?

"All in all, it's good that the few Einsatzgruppen teams I know so far are quite reasonable, so give it a try......" Phantom sighed, changed his clothes, and started in

I have my own plans for today's date.

Today I went to a small park with the theme of the sea of flowers, Zuo Yurui likes blue very much, and her bright eyes are staring at the blue flowers. On a whim, the phantom secretly went to buy a handful of azure flowers when Zuo Yurui was resting.

This is a new variety of artificially bred flowers, and the faint fragrance is accompanied by the color of the sky, which is very pleasing to girls.

Zuo Yurui happily took the handful of flowers she gave her, with a pure smile on her face, and then suddenly leaned over and kissed her on the face......

Kissed it...... Kissed it...... Kiss......

The phantom is stupid.

Zuo Yurui seemed to not realize how impactful her actions were, and curiously waved her hand in front of the phantom's eyes a few times, and "innocent" was written on her face.

Under the gaze of the murderous sight behind him, the phantom who came to his senses realized that his child, who was less than two years old, did not seem to be as pure as Zuo Yurui......

He didn't know which comrade was in charge of protecting (and watching) today, but he felt as if he had really walked back and forth at that moment...... In other words, Zuo Yurui is really the group pet of the special task force......

Anyway, at the end of the day, the date was quite fun. However, in addition to the joy of dating, the phantom also keenly smelled something different in the air. Several times he saw a few suspicious people talking in a hurry from a distance on the street, and when he approached Zuo Yurui, those people would shut up and leave.

Those people were supposed to be passers-by hidden in the city by the Lampshadow Family, and the Phantom tried to read his lips, and roughly discerned three words that had been repeated many times in their conversation - "intruder".

It is not difficult to see that the operation of the King of Gray Wings has been carried out yesterday, and although it should have been basically successful, it is a pity that some traces have been left by the Light Shadow family.

The Phantom was worried about the Grey Wing King and his unknown ally, and then couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly: the people around him ...... Creatures, all of them are powerful and want to die, what do you have to worry about this little waste wood?

Happiness is that time always flies quickly, and it is about to get dark, Zuo Yurui said that she wanted to eat sushi, and the virtual shadow took her to the best sushi restaurant in the city to prepare for today's dinner.

Although this city is currently the base of the special task force, because the special task force has been fighting with Huang Quanming on the other side most of the time, and the transcendent has only been officially made public in recent years, Zuo Yurui is actually not familiar with the city, so the little girl is looking forward to the sushi she has always wanted to eat but has never eaten.

Looking at those sparkling eyes, the phantom was embarrassed to say that the authentic sushi taste was probably not suitable for the heavy taste of the little girl...... Zuo Yurui is the kind of "good girl" who has to drink chili oil to eat hot pot and feel that it is delicious enough......

"Yo, hello!" As soon as he pushed the door, the acquaintance sitting in the store happily waved his hand towards the phantom and Zuo Yurui.

"Brother X!" Zuo Yurui happily greeted the passer-by X, the little girl noticed that her brothers and sisters were always deliberately avoiding herself in the past two days, she thought about it - probably because the considerate brothers and sisters didn't want to disturb themselves and Xiao Yao's date, right?

The phantom seriously considered the possible consequences of turning his head and leaving, and then decisively admitted it, and sat next to Zuo Yurui extremely "well-behaved", not even looking at it

Dare to have any deviation.

"Poof...... Don't be so restrained, I'm not a demon......" Passerby X smiled slightly, "I'm not in charge today...... Got it? I just came here for a meal, and I happened to run into you. ”

"Understood, I wish you a pleasant meal." The phantom replied with a slight stiffness.

To be honest, he really doesn't know how to deal with the passer-by X, on the one hand, this sister is really scary in some things, and on the other hand, ...... As soon as I saw him, the terrible things he had told himself that night would come to mind compulsively.

"I want this...... This, and this for Xiao Yao......" Zuo Yurui happily chose her favorite flavor, "Well, that's all, thank you boss!" ”

The sushi maker is a kind old man, who seems to like a polite girl like Zuo Yurui, happily took back the menu, and then went to the back kitchen to get busy.

Xiao Yao looked at Zuo Yurui, who was satisfied beside him, and couldn't help but feel a faint pain in his heart...... For two or three years, this is the only thing left of this pure girl. The most beautiful flowers will wither at the most gorgeous moment.

In any case, this shouldn't be the end that belongs to her, Zuo Yurui...... She deserves better.

"I'm done," Passerby X seemed to read something from the phantom's eyes, quickly ate his plate of sushi in three or two bites, and then got up to say goodbye, "You don't have to eat slowly...... My parents came here to see me, and I had to entertain them. ”

"Alright, there you go...... Wait, who are you talking about? The phantom stood up abruptly, frozen in place.

"My parents? What's wrong? Passerby X was a little surprised by the phantom move, "It's a surprise, isn't it?" People like me...... I also have parents, and my parents are ordinary people who don't know about me. Although I am the guinea pig of the Lantern Shadow family, I also volunteered to participate in all of this to take care of my parents, and now I can only see my parents once in a long time......"

"I ...... It's not ......" The Phantom shook his head, looking a little confused.

The words of the Grey Wing King echoed in his mindβ€”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ If you can investigate, you will find that they are all people with no past...... They have no parents and are almost all alternative androids born in petri dishes. They grew up immersed in the energy of the same origin as the false gods, and when they grew up to a suitable age, they underwent the transformation of passers-by......"

This is how the King of the Gray Wings describes the Einsatzgruppen, according to its description...... Passerby X shouldn't have parents!

"Most of us bastards with blood on our hands also have our own families......" Passerby X patted Phantom's shoulder, sighed and whispered, "Little Z is one of the few orphans among us, so we all love her...... Take good care of her for the rest of the time. ”

The phantom agreed dumbly, and watched Passerby X leave the sushi restaurant blankly.

Someone lied, and the two versions came into fundamental conflict.

Something must have gone wrong...... But where?

The Grey Wing King deceived himself...... No, this is impossible, not only does the Grey Wing King have no need to deceive himself, but even the situation in front of him can be easily debunked if it is a lie.

So...... There must be something wrong with the so-called "parents" of Passerby X!
