The events on Moon Shadow Island came to an end, and Lai Qixiao returned to his daily life. In addition to the information about the distillery, this trip to Moon Shadow Island also had an unexpected gain.

As he speculated, after meeting his son Asami, Keiji Aso's ghost disappeared because the rumors were dispelled. But Keiji Aso, the shadow of the cognitive world, did not disappear completely, but turned into a new personality mask, which came to Laiqi Xiao's hand like a gift.

According to Ravenda, this accidental personality mask is too powerful for the current Laiqixiao to summon in the real world, not even partially. However, it can still be used normally in the cognitive world.

He had been dormant for weeks, without sending a single warning letter. The first is that he has not encountered any targets to repent in the past few weeks, and the second is that he has concerns about the winery hidden in the shadows.

Unlike the Metropolitan Police Department, which is upright and well-behaved, the brewery is a ruthless criminal organization that dares to shoot Tokyo Tower. What's even more troublesome is that, judging from the information that Lai Qixiao has now, the distillery is obviously engaged in research related to the "cognitive world".

They may not have discovered the existence of another world yet, but they are probably aware of such a mysterious phenomenon as "cognition can distort reality". Taking away Keiji Aso's piano is supposed to be to study this phenomenon.

"The world is so vast, a phenomenon like Moon Shadow Island is by no means an isolated case, and I am probably regarded as a similar special existence." Lai Qixiao thought, "In the future, they will definitely do everything possible to set up an ambush to force me out." I'll have to be more careful in the future. ”

After returning from Moonshadow Island, Lai Qixiao also tried to use the sticky note book to fight back. He had tried to write the name "Kurosawa Jin" on it, which in his memory was suspected to be Gin's real name.

But the note book didn't respond, either because it wasn't Gin's real name, or for some other reason that is currently unclear.

Of course, he also tried the name "Karasuma Renya", and the result of the experiment was strange - Karasuma Renya's name neither disappeared from the sticky note book nor made the sticky note book react, and it remained on that page forever.

Laiqixiao tried to ask about the velvet room, and Iger's answer was even more intriguing - this means that the target has a shadow, but the shadow is "checkmate" and cannot appear normally in the cognitive world.

"Cognitively checkmate, half-dead, this means that the other party is now in a state similar to a vegetative state?" Laiqi Xiao pondered Iger's words, "It seems that Karasuma Renya's cognition is wrong, and it is probably related to the research conducted within the organization. ”

In short, the way to fight back through repentance is not working now. Fortunately, the people in the organization can't enter the cognitive world, and they can only find a way to deal with Laiqixiao in the real world. In fact, the two sides are in the same situation: they are both hiding in the shadows, and they can only force each other to take the initiative to appear.

After sorting out the information at hand, Lai Qixiao began to pack his luggage. He still has a schedule for the next few days, and he is going to Izu to go to a party for Dr. Asasa.

"The name of this event is 'Izu Mystery Tour', and I originally signed up with an old friend of mine, and I was lucky enough to be selected on the spot!" Lai Qixiao recalled the scene when Dr. Asa asked for himself, when he was wearing a mask and coughing while introducing the event to Lai.

"Originally, the two of us planned to go together, but unfortunately his little granddaughter had a serious illness a few days ago, and I, as you can see, caught a cold. As a result, two places were vacated on this trip. ”

"By participating in this event, you can enjoy a three-day, two-night trip to Izu, and the accommodation fee will be halved! It's a shame to waste such a great travel opportunity. So, I'm going to give my place to you. ”

"There are eight people in total, and among those eight people there is the organizer of the event. If you can find the organizer, you can also get free accommodation and a surprise gift from the organizer! How's that, the conditions are good, right? ”

"Actually, I was going to let you go with Shinichi, but he happened to be traveling with the Maori family. So that quota can only be wasted, maybe the organizers will choose another person to participate. But if Xiao wants to invite someone else to come along, I can also transfer another spot to you! ”

It was difficult for Lai Qixiao to refuse, so he agreed to Dr. Asasa's request. However, in the end, he only accepted a spot, after all, he really didn't have anyone to invite.

"That's not right...... If you think about it, I do have someone I can invite? Lai Qixiao was lying on the bed, and a petite figure suddenly appeared in his mind, "Maybe you can try it?" ”

After making up his mind, Lai Qixiao turned off the lights and fell asleep, and soon fell asleep. By the time he opened his eyes, he was in the velvet room.

Lai Qixiao has now mastered the means to enter the velvet room on his own initiative - as long as he concentrates on remembering the appearance of the velvet room before going to bed, he will be brought into the velvet room after falling asleep.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Lai Qixiao saw that outside his cell, the petite Lavinda was turning her back to him, doing radio gymnastics seriously, and whispering the beat in her mouth.

Eagle, on the other hand, watched all this with a smile, and did not make a sound to remind Ravenda, informing her of the arrival of Laiqixiao.

After the final quarter of the gymnastics, Ravenda took a few light steps, releasing her unused energy.

"It's done!" Ravenda stretched her waist and wanted to pick up the whole book of personality masks placed behind her again, but when she turned around, she just met Lai Qixiao, who had been silently watching her just now.

"Good evening, Ravenda." Lai Qixiao deliberately put on a straight face and greeted Ravenda, who was already blushing, "You are very energetic today!" ”

“…… Thank you for the compliment. Ravenda suppressed the shyness in her heart and tried her best to face Lai Qixiao with a dignified posture on weekdays, "Welcome to the velvet room, guest." ”

"You're here today, do you need me to help you synthesize a personality mask?" As she spoke, Ravenda had already stepped away from the guillotine, as if she wanted to get away from Lai Qixiao's gaze.

"It's not for that, I'm here to find you today." Lai Qixiao leaned against the wall of the prison, he had gradually become accustomed to the experience of prison, "That's the case, I'm going to go on a trip these days, do you want to come with me?" ”
