Somewhere in the seventeenth arrondissement.

The boy didn't look back and ran forward, it was a way out of the seventeenth arrondissement, leading to the "outside world".

The big brother who gave him his phone was right, this seemingly inconspicuous thing contained knowledge that he could not imagine, and the navigation to the "outside world" was no exception.

He couldn't remember how long he had been running, and he didn't know where he was, but the only thing thankful was that under the warning of the city-wide alarm, the people of the 17th arrondissement were staying at home, and there was not a single pedestrian to be seen on the street.

"It's really not good, you can run away from home."

The sound from the front made the boy's heart almost stop for half a second, and the door of the phone booth, which was originally empty, was pushed open, and a short-haired woman carrying a black suitcase appeared in front of him without warning.

"My sister came to this kind of place to find you."

With a feverish and sweet smile on her face, she stretched out her other free hand and made an invitation, "How?" Do you go back with your sister, or do you have her break your leg and take you back? ”

Almost without thinking, the boy turned and ran in the other direction.

However, before he could take a second step, he slammed into an oncoming object.

The door of the convenience store on his side was pushed open, and out of it was Fei Yin, who was originally dozens of meters away from him, after hitting the boy, she glanced at the black suitcase she was carrying, and said, "Look, he is also waiting for you to go back." ”

"I—I know."

Seeing that there was no room for maneuver, the boy had to bite and say unwillingly.

"yes, that's a good boy."

Fei Yin really treated her brother who had left home, and took the boy's hand affectionately.

However, as she turned around, a strange change abruptly appeared, and a cold light flashed in the boy's eyes, and the dagger hidden in his sleeve stabbed straight into Finn's back.

All kinds of martial arts, this is a sneak attack!

The mobile phone said that this is one of the most fragile parts of the human body, as long as one blow is successful, it can directly paralyze the opponent.

Got it!

The boy is happy.

"What are you...... Is it time for rebellion? ”

The expected scream did not come, and he drew his dagger in disbelief—he had just seen that part of the blade had been embedded in Finn's flesh, and then the boy was horrified to find that the sharp blade had been flattened at some point, and the attack that had carried out his conviction just now had only made the hilt touch the other party lightly.

"Or are you brainwashed by that rescuer?"

Finn-Elnium's eyes turned cold, and the murderous aura made the boy feel like he was in an ice cellar, and he involuntarily took a few steps back and fell to the ground, "That's right, he fought with his own life at that time to help you escape...... What a clever man, who thought of hiding you in a locker and fighting to the death, making me mistakenly think that you had fled in another direction. ”

Her words succeeded in evoking the boy's shattered memories.

In that dark basement, in the closed locker, I saw through the gap that the demon in front of me walked step by step towards the seriously injured rescuer.

Her back blocked the view, and only the sound of squeezing and shattering bodies was left outside.

"Why, why won't you let me go?"

The sneak attack failed, and all the boy could do at the moment was to question the other party and glare at Fei Yin with hateful eyes.

"Huh? Didn't he teach you some common sense? For example, it is only when you have experienced unimaginable pain and seen the deepest despair that the gift that this world has given you can blossom. ”

Fei Yin didn't care about the boy's hatred, she bent down, her lips almost pressed to the boy's earlobe, and whispered a whisper that only the two of them could hear, "Have you ever thought that I actually found you hidden in the locker a long time ago, and everything I did was so that you could witness that scene with your own eyes." ”

The boy's pupils shrank.

Those memories changed rapidly, and at this moment, the vague part began to revive under the prompting of the other party, and everything he believed in quietly changed.

He seemed to be back in the small locker, and through the gap, he saw that Finn, who had squeezed the rescuer into a pulp, was not going in the other direction, she turned around and smiled bloodthirstily and feverishly at the locker, and he watched as Fine walked towards him step by step, until her face was pressed against the gap in the locker, and she looked through the gap in the smile.

A few seconds later, he heard a rhythmic tapping.

Familiar but eerie nursery rhymes echoed outside.

"Little rabbit, open the door......"

The next moment, memory and reality overlapped, and all the nursery rhymes became whispers close to the ear, "And you, never escaped from there." ”

The boy looked at the eerily tall black suitcase, and he seemed to have understood what it contained.

"They say that without hope, there is no real despair."

Fei Yin straightened up, she raised her tone, the high emotion, as if she had trampled the whole world under her feet, "For you, I have been waiting for three years, how can I let you slip away in front of my eyes?" Since you have asked sincerely, I will tell you—because I am invincible if I can use your abilities to my advantage! ”

She had disappeared for three years, and had spent so much time in that dark laboratory for the reward of this moment.

"Now that you know the answer, it's time to go home."

Fei Yin nodded towards the black suitcase, "The loss of the soul shell is just a tool after all, let's go and complete this last part." ”

……

……

……

As the minutes ticked by, Fein gradually turned from fanaticism to impatience.

After a long time, she looked at the boy's still clearly existing figure, and finally suddenly said, "I see, no wonder you escaped from that courtyard, I didn't expect that place, and the people you valued." ”

"I said I would go back with you!"

The boy struggled to get up from the ground, "Let's go now." ”

"It's too late."

Fei Yin shook her head, "Hope is an impurity that must be removed, but don't worry, let my sister help you." ”

"Excuse me, excuse me."

A male voice intervenes in the conversation between the "siblings".

Fei Yin frowned, and followed the prestige.

A man in a black trench coat and a top hat with his entire face covered behind a mask.

As he spoke, the man was parking a blue-gray bicycle on the side of the road.

"The whole city has issued a ban, why do you two still linger on the streets?"
