According to my observations, "Wei Chi" is definitely not a living warlock who uses out-of-body magic, otherwise he would have died from a broken flesh skull at the same time as the spirit head was broken. Of course, the world of warlocks is full of wonders, and there may be warlocks who do not die with broken flesh and heads. In the case of Blue Bird, if her reflexes were fast enough to elementalize the moment she received a fatal blow to her head, it wasn't impossible to avoid fatal injuries in this way. But assuming that "Wei Chi" really used the out-of-body technique, then his physical body must be in an unsuspecting slumber, and it is impossible to avoid the fatal blow in the same way.

But to say he's a ghost is a bit unconvincing to me. He didn't feel like a ghost to me at all, but rather the moment he turned into a white mist, I felt the fluctuations of the fog demon. Could it be that he is a fellow Misty Demon? Judging by the specifications of his strength, he is at least not the tentacles of the Fog Demon. Could it be that he is a demon with human intellect?

It still doesn't make sense. I know that a few demons have a high degree of intelligence, but demons are demons, and the way of thinking and seeing the world is very different from human beings at the most basic level. Even if you can play as a human being, it will be different from it in some places. And in the course of the battle, all the details of the reaction of "Wei Chi" in my consciousness are human patterns.

Maybe he's a ghost, but it's not like all the ghosts I've ever seen...... With this in mind, I told the blue bird about "Captain Chi" and asked me about the ghost.

Bluebird seemed as elated as ever at my reliance on her knowledge, and the end of her words rose a little happily.

"The situation in which ghosts form after death can be broadly divided into two types." She explained, "One is the external cause, the restraint of the spirit body because of the existence of a special spiritual field at the place of death. This restraint both restricts the ghost's freedom and protects the ghost's form from disintegrating in the outside world. For this reason, these spirits are also known as 'Earthbound Spirits'. They must obey the order of the spiritual field, and once the spiritual field is gone, they will disappear. If there is chaos in the spiritual field, they will also go berserk. Many other spaces are spiritual fields themselves, and those who die in them sometimes turn into phantoms who operate in them. ”

"There is also an internal cause, the deceased has a strong obsession with death, and the obsession is the core that keeps the spirit in shape." She continued, "This kind of ghost is very stubborn in its thinking, and will only think and act on the premise of fulfilling its obsession. If you have the opportunity to practice your obsession, you will complete it immediately, and if you don't have a chance, you will create an opportunity. Although it will naturally disintegrate after completing the obsession, it will never delay your actions because of this. ”

"Hmm...... I didn't feel a special spiritual field in the place where 'Wei Chi' was active, and he didn't look like he had a limited range of movement...... At least not Earthbinders. "I ruled it out in the first place.

Besides, if he was an Earthbound Spirit, he wouldn't have used the tactic of letting me flee around the city first. Unless the entire Tianhe City is that kind of special spiritual field, if this is the case, Tianhe City has already become a ghost.

I continued: "He's certainly not an obsessive ghost, the kind of ghost I've seen before, and I feel that 'Wei Chi' thinks and reacts much softer than that. ”

"If it's neither...... So maybe he was a special ghost transformed by some special secret method? Blue Bird speculated, "When it comes to those secret methods, I don't know much about them. You say he has the scent of a fog demon on him...... Could it be that with the help of the power of the Fog Demon, he wrapped his spirit body from the outside, so that the spirit body did not disintegrate naturally? But it doesn't make sense......"

"Doesn't make sense, you mean?" I asked.

"Although there is a secret way to transform oneself into a ghost, basically no one will take the initiative to do it." "Because ghosts can't be a continuation of the living anyway." In the end, ghosts are just echoes of the living. Therefore, transforming into a ghost is essentially killing oneself first, and then creating another new existence that is very similar to oneself. Moreover, the upper limit of this new existence has been set to death, and no matter what you do, you can't surpass your former self. Who would give up their unique life for such a thing? ”

I continued to discuss with Bluebird for some time, but I still couldn't come up with a reason for that "Wei Chi".

Then we made small talk about other things. I took the opportunity to report to her about her curse, which was easily visible to others. She really didn't expect her curse to be wrong with it, and I seemed to hear the sound of her chain dropping again. Then she agreed to deal with it when I got back.

"Actually, it's nothing if you don't deal with it, that curse has no room for outsiders to take advantage of." Speaking of which, she also made a joke, "And there is also a feeling of putting your own mark on the person you like." ”

Are you a dog who likes to leave a scent on your own turf? I thought to myself.

However, she quickly returned to her senses, thinking that it was better to deal with it properly just in case, and seriously admitted and reflected on her mistakes.

And just as she was about to end the call, she suddenly asked, "Do you have anything else on your mind?" ”

"Huh?" I was unexpected.

"Something must have happened over there, right? You can't fool me, how long do you think I've cared about you, I can see that kind of thing at once. She said, "Tell me, I'm not going to be angry." ”

"Okay." I hesitated a little, but I still explained all the twists and turns of my mental journey when I fought with them to bite the blood.

After listening, the blue bird paused for a while, and finally couldn't stop being stunned and said, "...... What allows oneself to run away calmly, not to allow oneself to run away out of fear? The last time I dealt with the old bones, too, what kind of healthy revenge, sick revenge or something...... Speaking of which, you just think running away is inferior, right? ”

"Well, it's not impossible to say that......" said so, because I think something is inferior, so I deliberately try to go in the opposite direction, and it is also inferior. Although she was directly reprimanded, I didn't really want to admit it. Doesn't that make me look like a stubborn child? It's just in front of other people, but in front of the blue bird, I'm still very good-looking.

"I've said that before, right?" Her voice became soft, "When you encounter something that comes from your heart, it doesn't matter if you run away, it's better to say that it's smart." ”

Yes, she did. I remember everything she said. So I remember the last sentence she said. She said that the way I tried to face my fears was silly, but a little handsome. For me, as long as I can make her say from the bottom of my heart that I am like a hero, even if it is just a little, even if it is a very stupid thing to do, I want to do it.

And the reason why I chose to fight to the death at that time was not only because of her opinion, but also because of my original intention to join the Security Bureau. So no matter what, I couldn't allow myself to escape.

But, I ...... "I was about to go on, but it was as if she could know what I was thinking."

"Can't give yourself permission to escape? It's okay, I allow you. Even if you can't allow yourself, I'll allow you. Her voice was like a warm drizzle falling from the shower, "Whenever you can't allow yourself, you have to think about it, think about it." Right here, right across the phone from this call, there's a girl who is very, very, very fond of you, and she's going to give you permission wholeheartedly no matter what you're going to do. Even if you want to throw yourself into her arms and be coquettish like a child, she will touch your head with a good voice and say that you have worked very hard, and you are free to sleep on her soft and fragrant breasts, and you can rest in her warm arms as long as you want. When you think about it, don't you feel a lot more relaxed? Ah, say that everything is allowed to you, but there are some special terms. In addition to what I forbade you to do last time, cheating on my girlfriend behind my back is also absolutely forbidden, and it's not okay not to answer my calls and not reply to my text messages, and there are ......"

Listening to her words become babbling, I couldn't cry or laugh, but also felt that my mood was really a lot more relaxed, and then interjected, "Nineteen years old is no longer a girl's 'child'." ”

"Do you know how many girls in their twenties and thirties will be bombarded with your words?" She said with a grin.

Is there still a girl in her thirties in this world? I was taken aback.

"No matter how many times I say no, no, but when you face the battle again, you will still rush forward stupidly." She said, "Don't worry, I'm not going to stop you in this matter." ”

"Won't you stop me?" I asked.

"Hmm. If you want to be who you want to be, danger and difficulty are bound to follow. Although I want you to live as long as possible, I will not bind you to my side, nor will I stop you from pursuing anything. She said seriously, "What I like from the bottom of my heart is what you are now, so I will definitely not try to distort you." ”

"However, I still hope that you will change for me. Even a little bit. Her voice lowered, "Don't do anything on the premise of dying no matter what, as long as you have a chance to live, you have to live with all your might." ”

She continued, "You don't have to answer me now, but I hope you will take my words to heart......

After saying goodbye, she ended the call. I silently put down my phone.

I know very well that although Bluebird's love for me sometimes seems to be heavy, in the end, she is never the heavy, damp sick woman that some stories describe. Her nature is sunny and free, sometimes a little off the line, a refreshing woman who dares to love and hate.

It's all because of me that she shows a seemingly heavy side, or rather has to do it.

I forced her like that, and I don't know how to compensate her.

I sat down on the bed, closed my eyes, and slowly reflected on every word she had said to me, while examining my own heart as I thought what I should do in the future. It took me a long time before I turned my attention to the matter at hand.

After the battle with "Wei Chi", I received a total of three spirit fragments.

In the past, I was always able to receive the fragments of the spirit of the enemy after killing them, and then read their memories. And this time I didn't kill "Wei Chi", but I got his spirit fragments. So, will I be able to read his memories from these spirit fragments?

I want to try it.

Of course, strictly speaking, it is not my efforts that are to be seen, but the efforts of the sirens.

I lay my body flat on the bed, glanced at the ceiling of the hotel room, and gradually fell asleep.

When I woke up again, I was no longer looking at the ceiling of the hotel room, but the black night sky, the silver full moon, and the face of a little girl looking down at me without saying a word.

The back of the head is not the touch of a fluffy pillow, but the touch of a slim and soft thigh.

Although it's not once or twice, it's still a little embarrassing to let the sirens with the appearance of young girls make knee pillows for themselves. I sat up as if to hide my feelings, and then went straight to the point and asked, "Fragments of the previous spirit...... No, wait. ”

The siren slowly stood up, patted his white ruffle dress, and tilted his head in confusion, "What's wrong?" ”

"I have something to apologize to you." I said, "I'm sorry I said that the part of your new ability that shifts divination objects isn't useful." And, thank you. ”

"I hope you pay more attention to your own life safety, and next time if you feel that the chances of victory are slim, it is better to concentrate on retreating."

As always, she still can't tell if she's angry, and sometimes when I look at her like this, I can't help but say something problematic and want to see her reaction, "I'll think about it." ”

"Don't just think about it." She pointed out unceremoniously, and changed her words again, "Also, did you just want to ask about that 'Wei Chi' spirit fragment?" I've extracted all the memories and sorted them out. If you want to read it, you can do it at any time. ”

"Thank you. I want to see it now. I said.

She nodded, and gestured to the grass, where a set of stone tables and chairs rumbled up.

A white light flashed on the table, and two books of memory appeared.

"So you can not only restore the scenes in my memory in my dreams, but also change the scenes?" I asked.

"I'm also slowly growing, or rather learning. When you're not in your dreams, I'm slowly groping in your inner world. She said.

"I see." I sat down at the stone table, and she stood beside me like a little maid.

I glanced down at the two books on the table, "Why two?" ”

"Both books of memory are memories of the same person. Because you only got a part of the other person's spirit fragments, I can only extract fragments of memories. These two books of memory represent each other's memories in two different periods. ”

"However, I think I received three spirit fragments. In that case, shouldn't there be three books of memory? I asked, confused.

She picked up one of the memory books in both hands, turned the book to face me, and handed it to me, "In order to explain to you the reason for this, I recommend that you start reading this memory book first." ”
