Chapter 56: Another Self

"You're not dead, you're just in your consciousness. Oh no, maybe, it's in my consciousness right now. ”

The corners of Li Xumu's eyes twitched, and he couldn't believe that the person standing in front of him not only looked exactly like him, but even his voice was almost the same.

I still remember that I met this "myself" in a dream on the bus to Jumen Town, and then I saw the death figures of everyone on the bus. Maybe this ability... There is a great connection with this person.

"Who the hell are you?" Li Xumu's body tensed, and he clenched his fists and looked over. And this man, like himself, is like a ghost, and pedestrians pass through his body.

The "self" on the other side sneered and said, "As I said, we are the same person." ”

This person looked at Li Xumu with a defensive look and continued: "What? Are you going to do it to yourself? ”、

Li Xumu frowned tightly and looked at this person as if looking in the mirror. Although this person looks and has the same voice, his cold facial expression and the tone and shape of his speech are different, so it is obvious that he has another personality. The eyes were like dead eyes, as if they were indifferent to everything in the world, without any emotion.

Li Xumu was sure that this was not what he looked like, so he took a sip and said, "I have only one Li Xumu, who are you?!" ”

The man was a little hunched and his head was always bowed, but his dark eyes looked straight over, his arms were weakly inserted in his trouser pockets, and he replied in a lifeless voice: "To be exact, I'm dead." It's just that my consciousness is still alive in your body.

The next sentence made Li Xumu even more incredulous.

"Didn't my parents mention my existence? I am your brother. ”

Conscious... Alive, in my body... Compatriot... Brothers... This "self" remark contained too much information, and Li Xumu couldn't accept it for a while, and he couldn't say a word.

I haven't heard my mother mention anything since I was a child, and I've always loved myself, everyone knows that he's the only son of the Li family when he's grown up, and I've never heard that I have a twin brother, is this person in front of me who looks exactly like me really a dead brother?! I just don't know??

"My name is Li Xushui, and these two names are in my mother's womb, and my father has already set them for us. Wood makes fire, and water overcomes fire. And Mizuki is born, I think my father is the meaning of this. But before I was born, I died. But Father somehow kept my consciousness alive with your body. In a sense, I'm not dead, I'm always living in your body. In other words, our brothers share a flesh body. ”

Common... Hearing this, Li Xumu's stiff body took a few steps back, and he couldn't accept this fact.

"Also... Other words... Those sleepwalking behaviors before me... It's because of you..."Li Xumu somewhat understood the reason for his abnormal side. Those unconscious actions are not because of sleepwalking at all, but because... There was another person who took the place of his own consciousness...

So... The car accident that saved Xiaoxue was... This consciousness called Li Xushui did it!?

Li Xushui looked at Li Xumu, who was stunned, and also understood that he couldn't accept it if he suddenly said such a thing. A deep voice said again: "After all, the body belongs to you Li Xumu, I am just an existence born in your consciousness, and it will not harm you, after all, if you die, I will no longer exist." In the end, I didn't even have a chance to turn into a spirit. ”

Li Xushui bent his back and took a few steps forward, put his palm on Li Xumu's shoulder, and said: "So, you don't have to think of me as an enemy, or an existence that is not beneficial to you, most of the time it is still you Li Xumu, but when you are stupid, I will have a kind reminder." For example, when you decide to fill out the Yungang University Volunteer Form. ”

Li Xumu's hand was placed on his shoulder, and his body trembled. I think back to the night when I decided to go to Yungang University, and when I woke up, I found the note written in my own handwriting, the note that warned me not to go to Yungang University. It turned out that Li Xushui's consciousness was written with his own body.

"Whether what I said is true or not, you can go and check whether your mother was pregnant with twins back then." Li Xushui's face was gloomy and he put his hand off his shoulder.

"How could you....die....and even if I believe what you say, who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother... So what's said... I have two personalities now?! Li Xumu looked at the busy streets and alleys around him, and he couldn't believe all this.

The corners of Li Xushui's mouth tilted slightly, and even his smile was very cold: "My death still needs to be investigated by both of us at the same time, as for why my consciousness is in your body, all this should be related to my father." I don't know the reasons for that time. As for who is the brother and who is the brother, it doesn't matter, I said from the beginning, I am you and you are me. ”

Li Xushui continued: "If you think it's two personalities, it's not wrong. As Li Xumu, you are agile, thoughtful, dare to love and hate, but at the same time, the emotional you have also become your biggest weakness. And I, Li Xushui, have no concerns, I will be bolder than you in dealing with some things, in this bizarre world, death is fearless for me, and metaphysics and ghosts and gods are more thorough than you understand. After all, for a person who has died, if you want to survive in Yungang University, maybe my consciousness is more suitable to manipulate your body, because human emotions will become the biggest obstacle to life, and I just don't care about anything. ”

Li Xumu frowned, and he heard something else in his words. "You're saying that my consciousness will be replaced by you?! In other words, you, as a sibling, are you going to kill me? ”

Li Xushui still smiled evilly, but shook his head and said: "You still separate us from the matter, if you look at me from this point of view, I am afraid that in the future, you will live in a time of eternal fear of me." As I said at the beginning, we're all one person. Li Xushui is Li Xumu, if I want to do this, I'm afraid you won't have those sleepwalking experiences, but will always be in the sleepwalking world. ”

Li Xumu still looked at the other party with some vigilance. But it makes sense to think about it, the previous behaviors after losing consciousness did not hurt themselves, not only saved the lives of the important people around them, but also warned themselves of the danger in some way. If it is really like what he was worried about, maybe his consciousness will not come back when he was a child, and his body will continue to live as Li Xushui.

"So, those death numbers are also your power?" Li Xumu lowered his guard a little and asked cautiously.

Li Xushui also looked at the crowd counting down overhead. The red number on the head of a young man who was about to cross the road was particularly eye-catching.

"I've never thought of it as an ability, and it might be a bad thing for you to have it, after all, after experiencing too many other people's deaths, the most instinctive things of human nature will slowly numb and wear out. Eventually became just like me. It's hard to imagine what it would be like if I had survived my mother's womb and had the eyes of life and death, and finally stood here as real as you. I'm afraid that at that time, I was not a ghost or a ghost. People are alive, but they have lost the most basic emotions of living, which is no different from the walking dead. ”

While speaking, the young man who was crossing the road was suddenly hit by a speeding car in order to catch a green light. The number above the head also eventually turned into a red zero.
