Chapter 147: "Simultaneous Death"
"What do you mean...... Do I have to commit suicide to get out of this incident? ”
Lin Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the street not far away.
"Yes, you have to 'commit suicide,' I know it's hard to believe, but that's what the dossier I've seen says is that it's not really a suicide, in other words...... It's more like letting the 'three souls and seven spirits' return to the body.,We are the most special existence in this incident.,We must take the initiative to 'leave' here.。。 ”
"If I don't, I'll be assimilated into this realm until I can't go back?"
"Yes, that's understandable."
"So to sum it up, the dead end is to do nothing, and the way to live is to commit suicide on the spot, which is quite concise and clear."
Lin Sheng replied silently, but the doubt in his eyes still did not dissipate even a trace.
"Hmm."
Lixia's voice beside him gradually quieted down.
"But ......"
Lin Sheng didn't seem to intend to let the conversation end here just like that.
"I want to ask, you...... Why haven't you committed suicide yet? ”
The words fell, and the no-man's land around him suddenly fell silent.
A long time has passed.
"Because we have to commit suicide at the same time, I have to pass this information to you first, we are involved in this incident together, either of us does not commit suicide, it will lead to the failure of the survival solution, so as someone who knows about this incident, I must first confirm that you have indeed agreed with this answer, and then we will count down together, synchronously, so that we can return to reality together, if I am the only one who commits suicide first, then it will be a failure."
Lixia's voice paused.
"You...... Do you not want to trust me? ”
"We've already talked about the need to commit suicide, so what's the point of trust? Do you think I'm just a fool, and I will end up with myself very simply after a few words like you? ”
Lixia's voice fell silent, and it seemed to fall silent again.
Lin Sheng turned around and looked around again.
This street is actually a relatively well-known commercial street in Fenshan, with high-rise buildings everywhere, and even a bell tower that looks like Big Ben, a landmark in the No. 6 district.
On the huge advertising screens of several skyscrapers near and far away, there are also all kinds of product advertisements.
Bags, trendy brands, and even the pharmaceutical propaganda of the shrike, there are even a few huge advertising slogans that I don't know what product is promoted at first glance.
"If that's what you think, then this incident is completely unsolvable."
Lixia's voice rang out again after a few minutes of silence, as if he hadn't been able to think of anything effective.
Lin Sheng pinched his chin and replied suddenly:
"I haven't come up with anything to prove this, and we don't have access to each other right now, but that's exactly what the Morpheus core of this reality wants to see, and we're going to be completely trapped in this realm."
Withdrew his gaze from the distant billboard and looked back at the empty space again.
Lixia seemed to have been standing in that position all along, never moving half a step.
"Speaking of which, I'm actually having a problem right now."
"You say."
"Why is this incident so that I can only hear the voices of everyone and everything around me...... But that I should not see them? ”
"I don't know."
Lixia's answer was very crisp, and there was no hint of concealment.
"That's very intriguing, since you've seen the files related to this incident...... So isn't it mentioned in the archives? ”
"It's really not, it's very succinct, it's just what I mentioned above, the only survivor of the file committed suicide in the first place."
"The only one? Only one person has survived? ”
"Yes."
"Now it's even more interesting......"
Lin Sheng's gaze had been completely condensed, as if he wanted to see Lixia in the other side through the invisible space.
"Since only one survived, how do you know...... If two people are involved in the incident, do they need to commit suicide at the same time? ”
Lixia fell silent again.
A few seconds later.
"It's just my speculation."
"Understood, so you can infer from the act of a single person committing suicide, the words of many people...... It's going to be suicide at the same time, right? ”
Lin Sheng nodded slightly, as if he recognized this scattered thinking logic.
"I know you won't trust me completely no matter how I explain it, and I'm actually helpless, but I really don't have any way or channel to prove it."
"Hmm...... If ......"
Lin Sheng pondered it very seriously, and slowly responded:
"Do I trust you?"
…………
Lixia felt that his breathing was a little heavy at this time.
He was completely confused.
Myself...... Should we trust the invisible "Lin Sheng" in front of us?
Although the other party's answer is a little flawed at this moment, it seems to be in common sense, and it doesn't feel like it's disguised.
But Morpheus' abilities are bizarre, and it's not impossible to have the ability to read a memory personality.
Not to mention......
Lixia looked at the dagger in his hand.
He had already tried several times, and confirmed that his ability to release the gods was not able to lead the other party.
Even if...... The other party should be in their area at this moment.
What to do......
Lin Sheng didn't speak again after the conversation between the two just now came to an end, and there is no progress in this incident at present.
If it continues like this, it is likely that it will be "assimilated" by this field because of the long stay as the other party said.
Lixia knew that he had been hesitating for a long, long time......
But he was still hesitant to make a final decision.
A voice in his heart was telling him that "suicide" was probably the right choice, and that was the way to survive this incident.
But there is also another voice whispering, "suicide" may be the trap set by the other party......
Finally...... Which side ...... Is that right?
Lixia raised his head and exhaled deeply, a little helplessly adjusting his breath that was almost about to enter a state of breath holding.
Because he had always lowered his head slightly to be wary of "Lin Sheng", Lixia had never looked at the surrounding environment more carefully.
But now it seems...... This shopping street is really prosperous, and it is full of high-rise buildings with all kinds of advertisements......
"Huh......?"
Rixia suddenly noticed something.
…………
Lin Sheng looked extremely seriously at the place where Lixia had spoken before.
"I trust you."
"Well, that's for the best......"
Lixia's voice came again, and it seemed that he had not changed his position.
"But why did you suddenly trust me again?" Suicide is not something anyone can make up their minds to do. ”
"Hmm......"
Lin Sheng turned his head thoughtfully, stared at the billboards that were both "extremely conspicuous" and "extremely inconspicuous", and gently pinched his chin again.
"If I have to say, the progress of this incident itself is indeed too weird, there is neither clear danger nor clear safety, and there seems to be no more information related to the incident other than your words."
Lixia didn't say anything when he heard this.
"If you think about it from this point, the 'rule prompt' in the event ...... It seems that there are only a few words from you. ”
The grip of the long black knife clenched silently in the palm of his hand for a moment.
"So my idea was ...... 'you'...... It's the 'hint' in this incident. ”
"No, it should be said that it is a part, or rather...... It's the main part. ”
"What you say is true, and one of the dead ends is to keep grinding here until you are completely assimilated."
"And the way to live...... It's suicide, and as the 'specific cognitive individual' in this incident, I have to expel myself from this space. ”
"But...... I've just been thinking about a question. ”
"That's ...... 'you' count?"
"I want to ...... You shouldn't be Lixia himself. ”
"Perhaps, it's the core ontology of Morpheus for this incident."
"But you've been mentioning words like 'we,' and you've even mentioned 'like you' when you refer to 'specific cognitive individuals,' which means I'm not the only one who is special, right?"
"So I'm thinking...... Are you part of the 'specific cognitive individual' in this case? ”
"After all...... You are the only one who can communicate with me, and no one else can interact with me. ”
"And as you just said, we need to die simultaneously."
"If you look at it this way, I'm afraid I can't die alone."
"I ...... I'm already thinking about bringing you with me. ”
"If you were Little Radar, we would have died synchronously, fulfilling the conditions you said."
"If you're not...... So what does it matter if you die or not? ”
"Suppose that the real way of life and death is the above...... Then you can still run now, if you don't want to be 'killed' by me and let me get out of it. ”
Lin Sheng said, and the corner of his forehead couldn't help but feel a trace of cold sweat falling.
If the 'Lixia' beside him at this time is really not Lixia...... Then he is undoubtedly shouting with the ghost.
But he couldn't back down.
This...... It's a temptation.
"Come, say something."
"I'm here."
Lixia's voice came, and his tone was full of indifference.
"You...... Why not run? ”
"You can't kill me, you can't even touch me."
"Maybe you can't run, the rules restrict you to be around me, because you are both a dead end and a life end."
Lin Sheng turned his head to look at the high-rise buildings with advertisements.
"Besides, I really can't touch you."
"But I've been thinking about one thing before......"
"Why can't I touch anyone and yet hear them?"
"If this incident is just a reminder of my life and death through your mouth, I just need to hear yours."
"But...... Why should I be able to hear other people's voices? ”
Lin Sheng closed his eyes for a moment, and turned to face the direction from which Lixia's voice came from.
Behind...... It is a forest of high-rise buildings.
It is marked with several advertising phrases of unknown meaning.
And one of the sentences -
Blindness is the norm in life.
"Hints, in fact, there are a lot of them."
Then, with his eyes closed, his left hand reached forward, instantly touching a certain body, and then taking it into his arms.
Lin Sheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It's going to be a gamble again.
The long black knife stabbed through the deadly part of the opponent's back in an instant......
Run through with yourself.
