Sinmonger Chapter 3: Homecoming (middle)
"His brain waves are abnormal," Stranger said. "This may be a sign of imminent awakening."
The gunsmith looked at the fluctuating data on the computer and replied: "You are a doctor, I am only responsible for the reconstruction of the limbs." His implication was, "I don't understand."
In the laboratory, in addition to the magician and the gunsmith, Anshui is also assisting. These three people should be the most profound understanding of the eternal core except Tianyi and the consultant.
Darkwater said: "Do you believe in the existence of souls?"
"Ah... I've heard of the so-called thirty-five-gram and twenty-one-gram doctrines." The gunsmith said, "But most of the people in our inverse cross are atheists, I know what the consultant said. , he is agnostic, believe it or not depends on the mood."
"I don't think Darkwater is trying to talk about faith," Stranger said.
Dark Shui glanced at the doctor, although the guy's eyes only had blue light, but you can still feel the movement of the line of sight in his eyes: "Yes, what I want to say is that the so-called soul, if you want to To quantify it, it is the carrier of all memories and emotions from the embryonic stage to the moment of death. This carrier is not entirely physical, but a kind of conscious level."
"Don't you think it's offensive to say this from your mouth..." said the gunsmith.
"No, it is precisely because dark water has no emotions, and is absolutely rational and objective, that it is possible to conduct in-depth analysis of similar things." Strange said: "I can imagine that as a creature without emotions From the perspective of a bystander, how to look at this problem that has troubled mankind for a long time."
Darkwater nodded, and continued with the words just now: "I think if the theory of the soul is true, the blood owl has died once, and at this moment, his soul is going through some kind of self-saving journey, trying to re-establish the relationship with The connection of our world. This process is what people call redemption.”
The gunsmith smiled: "That reminds me of that or something...I read a novel about a similar story before."
"That is to say. His three souls and seven souls can only return to the sun when they return to the physical body." Zuo Dao walked into the laboratory. I happened to hear what Anshui said just now, and then I picked up a sentence: "It turns out that it's just such a trivial matter. When the poor Taoist opens the altar, give him a great spirit formation..."
"Do you think the boss will agree with you to make such a fuss?" Zuo Dao had not finished speaking. Stranger interrupted
"Hehe...Actually, I'm just talking casually..." Zuo Dao sneered: "If the blood owl knows that I have engaged in similar activities after the resurrection, I am afraid that it will be used as a reason to kill me."
…………
There seemed to be a whistling wind in the distant sky, but the blood owl didn't take it to heart. He continued along the road in the black-toned world.
The moon is white. His shadow is also white, light, an invisible thing in this world. Everything is black and white, whether it's bright or not, it doesn't affect what is seen visually.
Behind him came the sound of vehicles driving, from far to near.
The blood owl turned his head and saw a roadster with three young men sitting on it. The driver was a young girl. He has a hot body, wearing a low-cut t-shirt, hot pants, and sunglasses. The other two young men were also well-dressed, and none of the tattoo earrings fell off. At this moment, the two of them were playing hotly in the back seat, as if they didn't care that they were in a high-speed car. His clothes were so messy that he almost took off his pants.
This time, the blood owl didn't make any gestures to hitch a ride. The sports car stopped beside him.
"Hey, Chev. Where are you going alone?" The **** beauty in the driver's seat raised her head, pushed her sunglasses down slightly, and charged the blood owl with her eyes.
The blood owl didn't even open the door, jumped into the car with one hand, and sat next to the beautiful woman: "Drive, Lynn."
Lynn put on her sunglasses again, with a chuckle at the corner of her mouth, "I didn't know we nerds had such a side."
The blood owl did not speak, just stared straight ahead.
Lynne stepped on the accelerator and the car sped out, she still seemed to be chatting with a blood owl: "I've been paying attention to you, Chev, you're different from other classmates, you have something different from a high school student. mature."
The blood owl had heard this sentence before, so with Lynn's narration, that memory gradually became clear.
“Those guys think it’s cool to have Chinese characters tattooed on their necks and arms, or just have weird haircuts, beards, ear studs, nose rings.” Lynn continued, “If someone slaps them with The behavior expresses disgust, they will say 'Hey! I am so rebellious by nature, if you have a problem with maverick, why don't you go away?' Hehehe..." She likes to laugh, giving a very lively air Feeling, "But in my opinion, those guys are nothing, like racists, they can't find superiority anywhere other than their skin color and ethnicity. And those so-called 'rebellious' boys, They can only use the external form to cover up their lack of connotation. In fact, it is their heart that cares most about the opinions of others.
But you're different, Chevre, other guys say you're a stickler and a stickler. Do they think they are rebellious? forget it. A kid who spends 20 hours in a library like you is a lunatic who really doesn't care what other people think, that's called rebellion. "
When Lynn finished this sentence, Xue Xiao also remembered it. This should be the first confession he heard. Here are two points. First, it may not sound like a confession. It's just a compliment, but everyone knows that in high school, if the beautiful girl who is secretly in love with 90% of the boys takes the initiative to strike up a conversation and compliment you, then her dirty conspiracy has already been revealed; The second point to note is that the blood owl at the age of seventeen has a decent hairstyle and wears a pair of glasses to pretend to be gentle. Cover up your strong muscles. But none of this could hide his stubborn face and the deep eyes of an action movie star. If the blood owl had joined the football team back then, he might have already become the first brother of high school. It's just that as he grows older, the blood owl gradually realizes the importance of keeping a low profile, so he chooses to maintain the image of a nerd. So don't think it's a weird thing for him to be confessed by a girl, this guy has always been a hit.
"Why don't you speak? Chevre," Lynn said.
"Maybe he just took the drug, hahaha!" the boy in the backseat shouted, and then he kissed the girl next to him again.
"I remember...he's your brother." Xue Xiao said to Lynn.
"What's the matter with you today? Chev, what happened?" Lynn put away her smile and asked with concern.
"I killed him." Xue Xiao replied.
"What did you say?" Lynn opened her mouth in surprise.
At this moment, Xue Xiao turned around, and the two young people who were still alive and kicking in the back seat turned into two cold corpses in a second.
The black and white clips flashed in front of the blood owl like a slideshow. He looked at the girl's body and said, "The broken wrist bone should have been caused by a blunt object such as an iron rod or a wooden stick." The tone of his statement Like a doctor or a detective, the picture in front of him at the moment is an alley, with brick walls on both sides, behind a wire door, several trash cans are stacked, a woman in a long dress, with her back to herself, A man swung at her with an iron rod.
"That's... a graduation party." When the blood owl said this, a dark and empty environment appeared in front of him, and a white cylindrical light fell from the top of his head. Chirios was wearing a tuxedo and a bow tie, while Lynn, who was wearing a backless evening dress, was snuggling in his arms and jumping three steps slowly.
"We are dancing, and your brother is killing people." The blood owl's gaze returned to the body of the girl in the back seat: "The collarbone is dislocated, it should be caused by the impact with the ground, and there are bruises on the neck with gaps. , indicating that her neck was directly strangled by someone's hand... She struggled for her life, but it was obviously not successful.
Blood in her mouth, she knew she was going to die, in that dirty alley. Her arms and elbows are full of bruises and deep cuts, indicating that she struggled so hard, I can even imagine her screaming hoarse..."
"Chev...you..." Lynn stopped the car~IndoMTL.com~ I don't know what kind of eyes she was looking at the blood owl under the sunglasses.
"These are just my memory fragments." Blood Owl said: "I know so much because I finally found the body and dissected her." He looked at Lynn beside him again: "You After taking an overdose of psychedelic drugs, his younger brother accidentally crashed and discovered his girlfriend's infidelity, so he carried out an impulsive murder. The unmoving corpse brought him back some sense, and he hid the corpse in In the **** heap and escaped home." He paused; "I remember when you were standing on the porch of your house kissing me goodbye when your brother came to us in a panic like a madman. He was very scared. , the fear has made him almost crazy, he said what he just did, and then... when you persuaded him to surrender, he went crazy, he took advantage of the situation to smash the window glass next to him, and rushed towards you. "
The blood owl sneered: "I killed him in front of you, it was as easy as tearing the wrapper of a potato chip, and since you fainted from that fright, in the rest of your life, every week All went to receive psychological counseling until after marriage."
A breeze blew, and Lynn beside him disappeared, just like sand and dust.
"Why didn't you kill Lynn?" Another blood owl's voice sounded again. To be continued. .
