This is probably the closest Luo has ever come to death in his life.

Before that, the closest he came to death was when he was shot in the chest by a pirate sniper in Somalia.

At the time, the doctors thought he was hopeless, but Law eventually survived, and the bullet was only two centimeters away from his heart.

He was unconscious for about five days, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to ask Lukka if he had killed the sniper.

The answer, of course, is yes.

Because they were surrounded by a reef at the time, the snipers of the opposing side kept locking on them but did not shoot, and the frontal shootout continued, and the snipers on both sides kept their composure and confronted each other to find each other's position.

No one in the team was able to show their heads, many were wounded, and they needed to retreat quickly as reinforcements from the enemy team were approaching here.

And Law, who had just joined the club not long ago, only said to Luca in the communicator:

"Ready."

Then he rushed out directly from behind the cover.

Cowboy and the others had no idea that this bastard kid, who was less than fifteen years old, would suddenly do such a crazy move.

The crocodile that had been staying by Luo's side didn't even have time to hold him.

The moment they saw Luo rushing out, each of them was scolding their mothers frantically in their hearts.

Luo relied on his thin body and his own nimble skills to quickly shuttle through the reefs.

But in the end, with the sound of a gunshot in the distance, he still ate one of the sniper's bullets steadily.

However, Lukka also judged and found out where the opposing sniper was hiding.

Then, naturally, he locked on and shot off the opponent's head.

As a result, the team retreated smoothly from the battlefield.

……

…

That was the first bullet Luo had eaten in his life.

It was also the most serious gunshot wound before that.

Because after that, after the "education" of cowboys and others, Luo rarely made such a stunned move.

Including in these later missions, Luo has never been too mortally injured.

Although the gunshot wounds on his body slowly increased over time, they were not as dangerous as that time.

After all, if the bullet deflects a little bit to the heart, he will say goodbye to this beautiful and disgusting world.

……

And this time.

In fact, Luo can't remember how many times he has been injured in a mission.

But he could be 100% sure that there were definitely more bullets that had hit him this time than all the bullets that had been taken from his body in the past combined.

The feeling of being hollowed out of his chest by a bullet in just a few seconds was one of the few moments that Luo remembered vividly.

Perhaps this is not the most tragic picture on the battlefield.

But those who have suffered similar or worse situations have basically gone to God with this fond memory.

And Luo is not.

This is the second time he has brushed shoulders with death, and it is an extremely strange experience.

Although his intimate contact with death was not small in the coming time, Luo did not know those at this time.

All he felt now was endless pain.

……

As a result of entering a state of death.

Or it can be simply understood as a temporary separation between subjective neural consciousness and bodily perception.

As a result, his body was in excruciating pain, but Law was not aware of it.

He is now in a "fugue" state.

With him, there is also Yang.

……

"It's funny to say, you know, in my hometown, this kind of near-death situation can generally be described as 'going to the ghost gate and closing it for a while', but foreigners like to call those ghost-hooking ghosts Grim Reaper, carrying a big scythe or something, although it's cool, but I still think the black and white impermanence in traditional stories is a little more scary in comparison." Yang's words are still so fucking nonsensical.

"Thank you for the science, there is no black and white impermanence and no death, those are all used to deceive children." Luo replied lightly.

"You can't just deny something traditional, maybe they'll show up in a moment? After all, we now look like souls waiting for death to harvest, oh of course, it may also be black and white impermanence, or this kind of exists at the same time, but part of it is responsible for domestic business, and the other part is responsible for foreign business, but we are still Chinese, so it should be black and white impermanence to collect us, but it is estimated that they may still be on international flights at this time. ”

"Listen to me, if you successfully completed the nine years of compulsory education, you wouldn't have this kind of thinking."

"Haha! You're going to hurt people too! Luo actually jokes too! Yang burst out laughing.

"You know, for the past seven years I've been thinking that you have some problems like autism or social disorders in addition to having a split personality, but you don't, you just don't want to talk to people well, or you're not good at this at all, it might be easier for you to kill a strong man who weighs twice as much as you, isn't it?"

"If I could, I would choose to kill you first." Luo replied lightly.

"Hey...... To be honest, I empathize, really, but this thing is not so simple to do, like your psychiatrist sister, she has worked hard to help you for so long, but she doesn't even know that every time I talk to you, there is me, a hidden observer, squatting in the corner, although I can't make ......a sound."

"You're just a madman." Law's response remained lukewarm.

"Also, you're right, I have a strong desire to destroy and destroy, so basically every time I take the lead, I want to destroy everything I see in front of me, both alive and not, everything!" Yang said with a smile.

"So you're just a madman, just a madman who realizes you're a madman."

"A madman who realizes he's a madman? Well...... It's an interesting concept, but it seems logically problematic, if I can realize that I'm crazy, then at least I'm not losing myself, then I can't be crazy in that sense, at least not in the traditional sense, right? Yang asked.

"Say whatever you want."

"No, no, no, it's worth exploring. You see, both of us have had times when we lost our minds and lost control, you can't deny that, the difference is that you choose to frantically suppress your uncontrolled emotions, and I release my instincts, but fundamentally, we have the same nature, we can all lose control, but we take different attitudes towards it. ”

"Wait a minute, you're you, I'm me, without us, thank you." Luo emphasized one issue.

"Uh...... Okay, you're a good person, and I'm crazy. That's something you've been stressing, right, so I'm going to give you a little hint right now, do you think, is it possible that I don't actually exist at all, oh I know that from the perspective of the physical world, there is no second personality, but I'm talking about the spiritual level now, so do you think it's possible, you've always been you, you've never had a second personality, there's no time loss due to dominance, everything is you're experiencing......"

"Including you going crazy to kill everyone, writing yourself a letter and so on, and these are things that you did when you couldn't resist your emotions, you can't accept that you did such a thing, so you think that this other self did it, but in fact, it's just a mistake you made......"

“…… It's just an academic discussion of this issue, and nothing else. Yang said a lot of things that Luo had never thought about.

"May I interpret what you are saying as a kind of mental inducement of the main personality by this second personality who has not taken the initiative, trying to bring the subjective thoughts of both sides to an agreement and thus achieve some special purpose...... Like, more opportunities to dominate? Luo asked with interest.

"Oops, you found out, so the atmosphere is a little awkward." Yang snorted.

"Actually, you and I both know what caused this situation, so there is no other explanation." Luo said.

"Wow, this is the first time you've ever brought it up, oh no, to be precise, our positive conversation just started a few hours ago......," Yang said in surprise.

"The note you left earlier is right, when the grief is too much to bear, you need another person to share it......"

"But it's not a burden!! You just let me bear it myself, and I chose to escape!! Yang's tone suddenly became angry and crazy.

"That's right, so you say that you are a demon that I fed with pain, and I don't object to this, because I suppressed my emotions from beginning to end, and you completely accepted your emotions, and that's the difference between us." Unlike the manic Yang, Luo seemed very calm: "Actually, I occasionally think back to what happened that year, and I feel more that I was watching you, I wasn't digging in the yard, I just sat on the steps, or sometimes I stood by the window upstairs, I was watching you plant trees, dig the soil, and then you dug up those things, and then you broke down, and I just showed up naturally." ”

"No, no, no, it's not like that, the purpose of you saying that is ...... Let me think about it, let me think about it...... By the way, the purpose of you saying this is to keep yourself and me separated, so that you can maintain the independence of the two personalities, because you know very well in your heart that the only connection between the two of us is what happened that year, and you want to tell me that the nine-year-old, broken child is me and not you, so that you can make the two personalities more independent! Yang's thoughts are no longer as clear as before.

"But what am I doing this for?" Luo then asked.

"Because you don't want two personalities to merge?! Right! You know very well that one of the treatments for split personality is personality fusion, but you don't want that to happen to you, so you keep rejecting and separating the points of connection between us! Yang said in a very affirmative tone.

"Maybe, maybe I'm more inclined to another way of treatment, that is, to keep only one personality and delete the rest, maybe you're right, I refuse to merge, I don't want to get a little bit in common with you, what I want to achieve is to completely erase you from my mind, in short, it means to kill you." Luo said slowly.

"Okay, refuse to merge, in fact, I refuse too. After all, there are too many problems in you, at least in my opinion. But why wouldn't you want to merge? Just because I'm a bloodthirsty lunatic? No, no, no, don't forget that you yourself are such a person, and 99% of the people Luo Yang killed were killed by you, and the remaining 1% was killed by me in the pitiful few minutes that I dominated, and in comparison, you are the bloodthirsty person. Yang's tone returned to its original calm.

"Then why don't you want to see the fusion of the two personalities, oh yes, maybe you still can't face the things you saw in the yard back then, right? You think that once there is a fusion situation, you will suffer from that feeling of collapse again, don't you? Well? So you didn't even sit on the steps or stand upstairs watching me dig out those things, you were just afraid that you were the poor kid, hahaha, I still guessed you, Luo! ”

"You say there is no us, just you and me, but in fact, at the age of nine, it was us! We were together in that beautiful afternoon and witnessed those beautiful things~"

Yang's voice began to change from calm to triumphant madness.

“……”

At this time, Luo stopped talking.

"Why don't you speak, little Luoluo, do you feel that the lie has been exposed, and you don't know how to refute it? I can't find a rebuttal, right, haha! Yang said with a laugh.

"Don't worry, the story of you and me will be long, long, and it will never end so soon, without fusion, and no one will kill whom, no matter what the case is, it will be impossible to achieve in a short time."

"All I need is to get out of this damn shackle and go to the real world to have a good experience, especially now that we have changed drastically from before, I can't wait to experience it!!" Yang said with a laugh alone.

"Uh...... But then again, our conversation may be coming to an end, and given the egg pain that I can't dominate yet, it's time for you to wake up. Yang suddenly suppressed his laughter.

"How?" Law asked.

"Something is crawling towards you."
