Chapter 32: The Melancholy Saury-kun
Keisuke Ao's face flashed with computer fluorescence, and listening to Reina Kobayashi talk about a reality that never happened at all, in a trance, it seemed that even his memory was about to be changed by the girl's voice.
No...... It was a majestic force that seemed to bring two realities together!
It's like a bell ringing out of nothingness!
Keisuke Aoi felt a creepy abnormality at this moment—around Reina Kobayashi was a prey that was far stronger than he had imagined.
He had a glimpse of the vast shadow beneath the water's surface, enveloped in spirituality.
At the same time, he also somewhat understood why spirituality and divination had been reminding him to avoid meeting with Reina Kobayashi.
And that's why—"Witness"!
Witnessing is to use one's own perception to feel the "message" that belongs to Rina Kobayashi, so as to obtain the anchored truth.
This has a strong meaning in the occult, if he is part of this mysterious phenomenon, or part of the mysterious ritual, and has an extraordinary relationship with Reina Kobayashi, then neither he nor the monsters behind the scenes would want each other to appear at an inappropriate time.
In particular, Keisuke Ao's status is special, and what he "witnesses" often has a heavier weight in the occult.
Once he gets involved in this process, it is destined to have an impact on Reina Kobayashi's state.
And no one can guarantee whether this impact will be good or bad!
From this point of view, the cognitive bias between Rina Kobayashi and the real world and the virtual identity Hirra is also due to subconscious self-protection?
Aoisuke couldn't judge the answer to this question, and there was an even more acute question in front of Aokeisuke:
"Does the shadow under the surface of the water belong to a monster, or is it Rina Kobayashi herself?"
In the spirit and blood of human beings in this world, there is the spirituality to create miracles, and the spirituality will change with the will of human beings, so it is entirely possible for Rina Kobayashi to give birth to such a supernatural phenomenon by herself.
"It's getting more and more complicated."
Keisuke Ao's fingers subconsciously tap on the table, trying to use his occult knowledge to deconstruct and speculate on the source of the supernatural phenomenon.
"Kobayashi, Hirra......
In the end, his eyes fell on the vivid avatar in the lower right corner of the live broadcast room, leaving aside all the questions that could not be answered, and directly focusing all his attention on Hirra's avatar -
"Why is Hirra's memory different from reality?"
This has nothing to do with "witnessing", because abnormal behavior will expose more flaws in him, and it is through this that he discovers that the mysterious power around Rina Kobayashi is extraordinary.
This shows that Reina Kobayashi's cognitive biases do not exactly follow the trajectory expected by the mysterious power, and although it is paradoxical, it may be that Reina Kobayashi's own will is influencing.
This guy ...... What the hell is going on?!
Aokeisuke listened to Hirra's story, a little annoyed and a little helpless.
Until things don't turn bad, he'd do well to wait for things to unfold.
"Hey, hey, what's going on with you guys? Don't put a question mark on it!"
"What's wrong with the seniors asking me for coffee?!"
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to show off—"
Hirra compromised with the barrage in a childlike tone: "It's almost time, we should start singing back, if it's too late, the neighbors will complain."
"Oh oh! It's finally coming!"
"Hippopotamus! What a meal! Hippopotamus! What a meal! suki?suki?」
"Wait, haven't you started singing yet?! Why did you start swiping?"
"Hirra-chan's first song, of course, the atmosphere should be lively!"
"Hmph, the company that relies on hype is about to be exposed."
"Ahem, it's the first time I've been singing in front of so many people, Hirra, I'm a little nervous, let me adjust—"
A guitar came from the live broadcast room
The sound of strumming the strings, followed by an unfamiliar melody.
「???」
"Playing and singing to yourself?"
"Nani!?"
"I can't accept it, it's definitely a stand-in!" "Ahhh
I'm ready!
I'm sorry everyone, but I wrote the first song I sang today, and I haven't had an accompaniment yet, so I can only play it with the guitar first."
「??????」
hirra-chan understated that it made the live broadcast room even more riotous - didn't the hippo lady want to take the road of the V circle at all, but turned around gorgeously and directly became an online original singer?
In recent years, there have been an endless stream of powerful singers on the neon network, and many of them debuted through the Internet first to attract fans, and even attract wild composers and lyrics, avoiding the risk of being stuck by the brokerage company.
""The saury gentleman is not smiling" for everyone, ah...... By the way, are the seniors in the live broadcast room?"
"Damn, isn't this an obvious song for seniors!"
"Show affection anchor, take it off!"
"Don't, don't do that kind of thing!"
"Oops, your barrage is so fast, I can't even see the senior's speech.
But it doesn't matter, I've been secretly following my senior, and I've known he's there for a long time, hehe."
As Hirra finished speaking, her fingers moved slightly, and the light melody sounded, like a marble soda just taken out of the refrigerator on a summer day, and with each flick of her fingers, cool droplets of water slipped off the bottle.
"Like the silver of the sea,
Coming to me from the bottom of the sea,
I couldn't tell if it was the sun or you, trying to stun my eyes.
Na, na, saury-kun,
It's just a hot summer.
/
Laugh at it, melancholy saury-kun.
If you can laugh for me,
A few more times did you peek today? I can't count them.
Obviously the most delicious saury in autumn,
Summer can't help but want to eat you." 」
Hirra's voice was full of vitality, like a silver bell, as if floating above the rippling river and reaching the other side of the river, pouring out the feelings of the girl who were ashamed to speak.
"What...... What, this sings so well, isn't it?! (tears)"
"There is no doubt that it is Hippopotamus-chan himself......
"I don't believe it! It must be a sound card!"
"Damn, I don't know why, I'm suddenly so sour (lemon) (lemon)" reads the book
"Kill the seniors, grab the hippopotamus!"
"Brother Meng, why don't you hurry up and change your name? I've changed my name to 'Melancholy Saury-kun, and I'll sell the V50 to you.'"
"This song is going to be a hit, everyone! Let's take a group photo!"
Before a song is finished, the number of followers in the Hirra live broadcast room has begun to soar, and passers-by who are attracted by the popularity of the forum don't mind the birth of a new singer in Neon.
"It's too strong!"
"First Meeting, Single Push, Marriage?"
Keisuke Aoi quietly listened to Reina Kobayashi's singing on the other end of the picture, and unconsciously smiled, and the image of Reina Kobayashi holding a guitar and singing in a low voice had already appeared in his mind.
This kind of singing is too moving.
Especially when singing to him, a "senior"-
makes people want to pat Xiaolin's cute skull, and then make fun of her for not being ashamed.
