As I made my judgment, I also realized that I was very likely to be exposed.

After the old man looked at me, he smiled and said, "It seems that you are the one who found the ability that Aoba." ”

Am I here, completely famous?

Although Wu Lingyou told me about this situation, I imagined that the people in the supernatural circle only vaguely knew about my existence.

The old man's smile looked kind, and the light smile was the kind of eyes that the elders looked at the juniors.

"Don't be nervous, I don't want to do anything. We're grasshoppers on a rope now, and cannibalism only makes the exorcist's little girl happy. Well, she's not necessarily happy now, she probably doesn't have human emotions anymore. The old man sighed.

"She did it?" I asked.

"Do you have any other targets of suspicion?" The old man asked rhetorically.

I hesitated.

The person met here was a participant in that party, and in this way, it seems that the culprit was the girl, which is an obvious correct answer. But my experience tells me that it must be made by a toy spirit. Maybe the toy spirit used the girl's soul and abilities, but the culprit was not the girl, but the toy spirit.

While I was thinking, the old man didn't bother, just waited quietly.

I thought about it, and I still said that I and Aoba had always been the enemy and the target of the toy spirit. The ability of the thin man and the situation of Wu Ling, of course I chose to keep it a secret. Even my own ability to dream realm, I didn't say anything, I just said that Aoba's people found clues in this regard, and Aoba and I have both seen teddy bears and contacted Lu Qiaolan, so we discovered the existence of toy spirits.

"If that's the case, it makes sense. This assumption is more plausible than my guess. The old man agreed.

"So now, we should find the toy." I said.

The old man shook his head, "I can't find it." ”

I was stunned, "Will it hide?" But I guess it's here......"

"It's being manipulated by that girl's abilities here." The old man raised his hands and folded his palms, "We are now in the girl's consciousness space. After the death of that little girl, her ability was further improved, and she was able to grab our bodies as well. Oh, you're not quite the same. Your abilities in this regard should be stronger than ours, so only souls come in. You could see our souls at that meeting, too? It's not the shape of the cloak that shrouds us, it's the way we really look. ”

I can't refute, I can't lie about it. The fact that I can float is enough to prove that there is something wrong with my current form of existence. In addition, my hand touched the old man's body just now, and he discovered my ability, and he will also find that I am now in a soul state.

"Those young people have found a good seedling." The old man exclaimed, as if he praised both Aoba and me. He immediately said back to the point, "So right now, we're in the girl's consciousness space. The toy spirit is in another dimension. It is impossible to find here the toy carrier to which the toy spirit is attached. ”

My heart sank, and suddenly I thought of the thin man who had disappeared.

I'm afraid it's not the thin man who disappeared, but I disappeared. The thin man had made it to the space where the toy spirit was, but I was blocked from the girl's consciousness.

I couldn't help but feel anxious. But in front of the old man, I still hid my emotions.

"So how do you break through here?" I asked directly.

The old man shook his head, "I just found that if you want to survive here, you have to stay calm. Anxiety and fear can lead to death. That's how those people died. As he spoke, he began to sigh again.

I was suspicious again, "That's it? They died for this reason? ”

Isn't this the same situation as when ordinary people face ghosts? As long as you give birth to fear, you will give the ghost the ability to kill yourself. But the three people who died just now were all capable people, and it is very likely that they were all capable people who had experienced a hundred battles. Otherwise, the Exorcists Guild would not have invited them like this. Among the people who were invited, there was Wu Ling and the old man in front of him, so those three shouldn't be too much worse than them, right?

The old man seemed to see my suspicion and explained, "Everyone has the most vulnerable part of their heart, and they have a dark part. No matter how strong a person is in normal times, if he is attacked on a weak point, he will also be dealt a fatal blow. As far as I know, An Ling's psychological weakness is her childhood. ”

The old man looked in the direction where the woman disappeared, "Her parents are both insiders, and sometimes in order to deal with supernatural events, they need to travel all over the country. One phone call and they get there. An Ling was raised by her grandparents. Their family was very rich and gave her good material conditions. However, her parents were not around, and her grandparents were a little overprotective of her because of the nature of her parents' work, and she almost grew up under house arrest. At the age of sixteen, her abilities exploded, destroying her home, as well as her grandparents. Her parents locked her up until she was twenty years old, when her parents died at work, and she stepped out of the house for the first time. ”

I opened my mouth and looked at the old man in disbelief.

"These toys must have brought back her unbearable memories." The old man shook his head, "Other people probably have had this experience too. ”

He said, looking at me, "You haven't encountered anything like this in your childhood, have you?" ”

Of course I don't.

Before I knew about Xiaobai, my childhood could be said to be extremely ordinary and very happy. The biggest annoyance is probably the small things like studying and taking exams.

Even if I know about Xiaobai, my childhood troubles have nothing to do with toys.

It dawned on me and I looked around.

Is it because of this that I don't have toys around me?

The old man smiled, "What a coincidence. Me too. But it's probably a little different from your experience. At that time, it was difficult for me to eat and clothe myself, and I didn't have the heart to think about toys at all. Neither of us is bound by this in this regard. ”

"Hmm...... So what are we going to do? I asked.

The other party doesn't seem to be able to help us, but on the other hand, we can't help her.

I waited for the old man to show me the way with his rich experience, and then I saw a teddy bear sitting in the window of the house behind the old man.

The old man turned his head to follow my gaze and let out an "oh", "It seems that there is nothing wrong with your childhood, but recent events have made you have a psychological shadow." Do you care about this? ”

"Hmm......" I nodded, calmly looking at the teddy bear, with a slight emotion in my heart.

Of course, I care about these teddy bears.

The original beautiful feelings, beautiful spirits, have now become like this, how can I be relieved?

I've encountered so many supernatural events, and among all of them, the only ones that can be considered successful are Lu Qiaolan and her teddy bear. Even before, I knew that the teddy bear was impounded by the exorcist seal, and I didn't feel that it was a big trouble that couldn't be solved. Now, Lu Qiaolan has been killed by teddy bears, and even this bit of beauty has been broken and developed in an ugly direction, I am very unwilling.

"Then it's up to you to face it yourself." The old man took a step back to the side, "Face the shadow in your heart and break it." ”
