Episode.8 Hiiragiya - Discourse (Part 1)

Nangong Hiiragi also forgot something, so in order to deceive himself and did not forget any memories, he created the strange girl in front of him, and this is the current situation.

However, not to mention what he has forgotten, Hiiragi, who is the person concerned, also thinks that he has not forgotten anything, and he has no regrets since he was born.

The reason is, of course, that Nangong Hiiragi also has the ability to archive, so even if he regrets it, he can rely on reading the file to go back to the past, do the regretted things well, and make it his ideal situation.

To put it bluntly, Hiiragi can also do such a thing as 'any past is satisfying', so how can we forget the so-called unpleasant memories?

In fact, the above proof is just a joke...... It's a joke, not a real conclusion.

Because even after traveling to the past and solving unfortunate events, Hiiragi, who has this part of the memory, will not feel at ease for granted.

In the original world line, Hiiragi can't change such misfortune, which means that the memory of misfortune leaves the old one in the depths of Hiiragi's memory.

The ability to read files doesn't erase memories, it just brings the body back to that point in time, which is both a good thing and a bad thing.

Just like the protagonist of the stone door, even if he finally thinks of a way to save the heroine, the memory of the heroine's continuous death will continue to emerge in his mind.

It is not happiness that attracts the attention of human beings, but what attracts the attention of others is real misfortune.

So, now that it is full of jokes and lies, what are the memories that you have forgotten?

Hiiragi has also finished listening to Ara Ryoki's recollections, and Ara Ryoki's conversation with Oshino has indirectly proved the correctness of Nagi's guess.

Nagi is a person who knows everything. Hiiragi also wants to rely on her. Get the answers you want.

That's stupid - Nangong Hiiragi in his heart also gave Hiiragi such a response. Relying on Nagi is the stupidest action.

Nagi is a genius who knows a lot of information that Hiiragi doesn't know, but she will never provide Hiiragi with any convenience.

So far, it looks like Nagi is helping, but Hiiragi knows that she's just pulling herself into another, more complicated puzzle.

As the owner of his own memories, Hiiragi still can't recall the part of the memory that he lost.

Nagi's body temperature came from behind, and the sound of her breathing shook her eardrum, and Hiiragi's heart pounded......

It was as if I had suddenly remembered something. Hiiragi also fell completely silent, and that part of the vague memory began to be like a painting in the rain, soaked in the rain, and became more blurred.

I almost caught the center, but it turned out to be at this time!

"It's okay if you can't remember, let's go to this place first......"

Battlefield Hara interrupted Hiiragi's thoughts, and the place she said must have been referring to [ARTROOM], the art room.

"Have you gotten a clue? Really, let me worry about a ...... I thought it would be dangerous, after all, that weird girl had hurt someone else. ”

"I'm so grateful to Araragi-kun for worrying about me. Next time I'll give you a call, please come to me. For example, if you are thirsty or want to get dressed. ”

"I'll do it myself, Miss Battlefield."

Speaking of this, Xiao Nagi tapped Hiiragi's shoulder with her hand at this moment and said:

"I heard footsteps, could it be a security guard, we'll be caught, Xiaoya."

"It's bad to be treated as a thief who breaks into someone else's campus at night, so let's admit my mistake."

"Huh?! Will the last one arrive and I have to be a scapegoat? ”

"I can't think of any other ways to use Araragi-kun."

"You're too cruel."

As everyone talked, the strange girl walked to the door, making Hiiragi mistakenly think that she wanted to kill the security guards who had come to patrol.

It's just that the weird girl didn't do that, and as a weird created by Hiiragi, she stood on the balcony and jumped down.

The figure of the strange girl disappeared, and before leaving, the fluorescent liquid that fell into the air was her tears?

The light overhead was incandescent, and maybe he was wrong, so Hiiragi fell silent.

That's weird of your own making......

So here's the question, isn't it strange that I've only been in this world for a few hours, and that weird girl started hurting others a few days ago?

Before the arrival of the 'creator' herself, the strange girl who was 'created' began to play tricks, and it is impossible to explain it.

Or is it that Nangong Hiiragi, who created this weird girl, is not his own Nangong Hiiragi?

It's so weird, Hiiragi also thinks there's an idea that's more plausible-

That is, after he arrived in this world, the memories of the humans in this world have been tampered with, and the person who can do all this is nothing more than the guy with the big ball of light.

So what exactly do you want to recall? What is it that you should forget and then start remembering?

"Xiaoya, the puzzle is always solved at the end, so please avoid the security patrol until then."

"I see."

It's stupid to be caught by security now and read the file.

Except for the strange girl, a group of four people left the data room, locked the door after turning off the lights, and Yuki also took the lead to climb up.

There are also several floors above that can be used as a place to take refuge for the time being.

At this moment, the security guard with a flashlight came to the door of the data room, twisted the doorknob with his hand, and looked at the data room in pitch black because the lights were turned off.

"Am I mistaken? Obviously, there is a light here, so maybe you can't touch it or something. ”

The security guard sighed, glanced around, and left the scene, not continuing the pursuit.

After confirming that the security guard had left, Hiiragi also carried Nagi on his back and walked towards the first floor.

"Although we have come to a conclusion, it is the so-called [ARTROOM]. Art room. Which one is it? This [Shouqiu Studio] is a place to learn to draw. There must be a lot of art rooms, right? Do you have to look for them one by one? ”

"Maybe that's going to happen, unless there's extra information."

Speaking of which, Battlefield Hara asked Hiiragi, who was walking in front

"Nangong-san, what's your birthday?"

"Why did you ...... so suddenly?"

"That's the weirdness you made, in my opinion, creating weirdness is close to dreaming, and human dreams are all related to yourself and your encounters, not to mention your encounters, other information about yourself can be well grasped, right?"

That's right......

Hiiragi also remembered the classroom that Ara Ryoki entered in "The Final Story" that he couldn't get out of. Unless the real culprit is found......

It's just that for the current Ara Ryogi, it's a later story.

"Xiao Ye's birthday is November 5th, I remember it very clearly, this building has a total of 12 floors, and now the elevator is not available, only to climb up."

"I wish I hadn't been born on January 1st."

Hiiragi said the same, but still picked up Nagi and climbed up, while Ara Ryoki and Battlefield Hara followed behind.

It didn't take much effort to get up slowly, and Hiiragi was bothered by whether there was any meaning to such an action.

It is true that I was born on November 5, but is this guess really correct?

"It's here."

I finally climbed to the eleventh floor. Hiiragi, panting, also saw the sign nailed to the wall in front of him[11].

Thinking back to the story he has experienced so far, Hiiragi can't help but feel a little ridiculous.

When I came into this world, I thought a lot about it. Compared to other worlds that need to be fought, it is indeed a plus.

But if you're confused all the time, you're a little unhappy.

Hiiragi didn't think about reading the archives of the past, preventing the weird girl from hurting others, and cutting off the entire story of Monogatari.

However, it's a pity that Hiiragi doesn't have an archive of this world's 'past few days', because 'Nangong Hiiragi' didn't exist here at that time.

This is also the reason why Hiiragi is also puzzled by the appearance of the strange girl.

In addition, the action of reading future archives is even more useless...... Hiiragi also feels that his future in this world is still confused.

Therefore, instead of using the file reading to change the status quo, it is better to accept the current situation and explore the real truth.

The weird girl's lies, the weird girl's actions, and the weird girl's actions are all to tell yourself something, right?

It's just that she, who is the 'wolf of boo' and 'wolf of lies', can't tell the truth, so she will notify Hiiragi through such a troublesome action.

As a weird thing she created, Hiiragi also thinks that she is quite smart, and even as a creator, she can't understand the meaning.

After being reminded by everyone around me, Hiiragi finally figured it out.

She can't tell the truth, so she will explain the truth in various ways.

That will be my lost memory, but also my forgotten past, what are those contents?

Came to the door of classroom No. 2 on the eleventh floor, and used the same method as before, allowing Xiao Nagi to open the door.

Both Battlefield Hara and Ara Ryogi were a little surprised, probably because they didn't expect Xiao Nagi to have such a skill.

The inside is very dim, and the easels are neatly arranged inside, on the left and right sides of the studio.

"Ah......h

Among the neatly arranged flower stands, only one easel stands out a little, which is obscured by a piece of cloth, and it is difficult to see what is underneath.

This time the lights were not turned on, and Aragi used his phone screen as a light, and Hiiragi also walked in front of him and unveiled it.

“————!”

It's a painting.

It's a very rough painting, and the top half is torn apart, leaving only the bottom half, and the upper bodies of the two characters in it are gone.

In the background is a square with a fountain in the center and brightly colored flower beds all around.

"I see."

Hiiragi's whole body strength was about to disappear at this moment, but he still persevered.

"Xiao Nai, you...... Is it no longer there? ......" (To be continued......)
