The strongest scum after me

Qing Shuilin has personally taught two students, one of whom has been studying with her since she was a professor, and is still a member of the institute until now, with outstanding achievements and a good reputation; the other is rarely known, It disappeared a few years ago.

When Shimizu Sakura saw Osamu Dazai for the first time, he felt familiar.

The black-haired young man in a sand-colored windbreaker stood under the setting sun and looked at her with a slight smile. His voice was light and light, but what he said made her heart stop for an instant.

He said, "You, aren't you Qingshuilin?"

It is clearly a question sentence, but the tone is a declarative sentence.

In Shimizu Sakura's mind, there are countless ways to solve the problem in an instant - denial, lying, prevarication, threat, negotiation, cooperation... But the possibility of all the solutions is when she looks into his pair of iris eyes. In the blink of an eye, they were rejected one by one.

The light of the setting sun shone into his pupils, like a sparkling sea with different shades but distinct layers.

Calm and sure.

There is no need to justify.

Shimizu Sakura thought.

She has dealt with many people with high IQ, and even she herself is one of the smart people in a million. She is too aware of the way of thinking of smart people, and also understands that the young man in front of her is not waiting for her answer, no matter how he got it If he knew the truth, he already had a very clear answer to this in his heart.

Denial is useless.

Shimizu Sakura didn't speak, she looked at him silently.

"Let me introduce you." The black-haired young man said with a smile, "My name is Dazai Osamu, and I had the honor to study with Teacher Lin for a while."

The moment she heard his name, Shimizu Sakura suddenly remembered why she thought he looked familiar.

When she was young, she once saw a handsome young man with black hair and eyes behind Qingshui Lin. The cold and beautiful woman introduced her two students to others and said in a calm tone: "Over the years, I have taught countless students under my name." , but the only one who has the qualifications to be able to outperform blue and surpass blue is Dazai-kun."

He is Qing Shuilin's student who has disappeared for many years for some reason.

Osamu Dazai used to be a very optimistic student of Shimizu Lin. Shimizu Sakura originally thought that since he found out the truth about Li Daitao's stiffness, he would definitely send himself to prison directly to avenge his teacher.But for some reason, as the only person who saw through the true soul in this body, Osamu Dazai not only did not report her identity to the high-level government//government, but also swept away the "weakness" she left unintentionally for her .

Shimizu Sakura studied with him for five years.

To the outside world, Osamu Dazai's identity is a senior psychological counselor. Although this is already a very respected profession in society, under the halo of "Student Shimizu Rin", there is no achievement in the field of spiritual research. He seems to be very mediocre compared to the gifted self when he was young. When outsiders occasionally mention him, they will only shake their heads and sigh that he wasted his talent. He is no longer a genius who can change the world, but a drifter among all living beings. member.

Only Shimizu Sakura knew how terrifying his research in the field of spiritual power and psychology had reached.

From the age of 14 to 19, she studied with Osamu Dazai for five full years.

He is too mysterious, and his whole body is wrapped in layers of mysteries. On him, Shimizu Sakura has many puzzles and unsolvable puzzles that cannot be answered, but Shimizu Sakura is more willing to get answers than to ask directly. Trust your inferences.

With the passage of time, she learned more and more knowledge from him, and she thought she knew him a little bit, but Dazai Osamu was still like a layer of fog to her. I can't see what his core thing is.

Shimizu Sakura didn't pay much attention.

She thinks more about how to achieve her goal.

Her goal is too big, too far, too crazy, so crazy that she will only be treated as a joke if she says it.And now she doesn't even have a solution, trying to find the possibility of realizing it is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.

In the long period of unsolvable depression, a few words casually mentioned by Osamu Dazai gave her some inspiration.

"...All soul transformation devices have a control center called [Puppet Deed]." He said, "It always operates according to the set of calculation logic originally designed by the designer for it, and cannot be artificially changed. Lin Qingshui The ability to complete the 'Phoenix Project' is largely due to the [Puppet Deed] control center."

The production method of [Puppet Deed] is still a secret, and only Qingshuilin knows the whole process.The high level of the government once promised her a lot of money and asked to exchange the [puppet contract] production method of the control center, but Qingshui Lin refused without hesitation.

Her reason was: "The materials used to make Puppet Deeds are very special, and even I cannot copy and mass-produce them."

"In fact, very few people know that the original intention of [Puppet Contract] was not for the 'Phoenix Project'."

The young man in black lowered his eyelashes, and his voice was extremely soft.

Maybe the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the heart.

Since [Puppet Deed] is the control center of the soul conversion device, then...

Shimizu Sakura lowered her eyes.

On the day when Shimizu Sakura's crazy plan was born, she planned to tell Dazai Osamu the whole thing, but just a second before she spoke, he suddenly made a gesture of silencing her.

He didn't speak, just looked at her with a smile.

As his student, Shimizu Sakura understood what he hadn't said at that moment.

Listening and monitoring are just trivial skills. With the development of science and technology, there is no absolutely safe place in this world.

The soul will be replaced, and the thoughts will be interpreted. No matter how careful, delicate and incredible her plan is, once it is obtained by the top government//government, everything will fall short.

The real plan cannot be announced or recorded, and even thinking must be extremely cautious.

Shimizu Sakura returned to her residence. She hadn't planned to record her plan anywhere, but suddenly, she had a new idea.

Her next plan is like walking a tightrope. What she has to do is extremely dangerous. She is very sure and sure that someone will study and analyze all the traces she left in this world on the day of the incident. She didn't want to give them Leave any chance, but now, she suddenly changed her mind.

She could direct their analysis of her in any direction she wished, if she wished.

The real purpose should be hidden behind a thick fog.

Shimizu Sakura lowered her eyes, she deleted the original topic, and wrote down a new research topic word by word on the optical brain——

The Feasibility of Implanting Thoughts Using Mind-Turning Devices.

Five years passed in a flash. After Shimizu Sakura "graduated", she returned to the research institute to continue as the director according to the original plan.

The plan in her heart has already taken shape, but there is still a fog in front of her. At least for now, she still can only wait for the opportunity.

A month later, Osamu Dazai committed suicide.

No one knows why he committed suicide, even Shimizu Sakura didn't understand what he was thinking, this young man who taught her a lot and helped her a lot did not leave any last words in the end, with countless mysteries, just like welcoming the sun Like the snow on the eaves when it first rose, it melted silently into this world.

"Master Shimizu, the new clone has arrived, and the higher-ups hope that you can complete the soul replacement before twelve o'clock today."

"Before today?" Shimizu Sakura put her hand in the pocket of her white coat, her voice was as cold and clear as jade, with a trace of surprise, "But today's schedule is already full, and the work of [Puppet Contract] The efficiency is limited, how can we insert another person in?"

"Then postpone the operation that was scheduled for today." The staff who sent the clone to the research institute said firmly, "The higher-ups have issued a death order, and the soul replacement of this clone must be carried out today."

"why?"

The other party hesitated for a while, and finally said: "This clone is called Xia Youjie, and his original owner is a high-ranking adult. Xia Youjie should have been raised in the 'welfare home' like other clones. But That adult thought that the living environment in the 'welfare home' was not good for the clone itself, so when the clone was young, he asked people from the Wujo family to adopt his clone."

"Gojo Satoru, the only heir of the Gojo family, is about the same age as this clone. The two grew up together and are good brothers. The people of the Gojo family don't want to tell their young master about the 'Phoenix Project' when he was young." The truth, so Gojo Satoru never knew that his best friend was a clone, and he would be forced to die by replacing his soul when he reached the age. But I don’t know what happened, not long ago Gojo Satoru suddenly knew the truth. The people and the high-level government/government are in a turmoil, and they don't agree with that clone to participate in the 'Phoenix Project'..."

"In short, the Wutiao family has temporarily controlled their young master, but it is estimated that they can only last until twelve o'clock today at most. So no matter what, the people above require that the soul replacement must be completed before twelve o'clock today."

Gojo Satoru...

Shimizu Sakura is no stranger to this name. Gojo Satoru, the young master of the Gojo family, one of the three royal families, and the only heir of the Gojo family, his spiritual power far exceeds the first level in the evaluation, and he is a genius who has reached the "special level".

Her eyes lightly flicked over the information of "Wujo Wu", and when she touched the word "Superior", she paused without a trace.

As a famous genius and an extremely rare "super class", Gojo Satoru was among Shimizu Sakura's observation targets a long time ago. Shimizu Sakura did a psychological profile of him. To a certain extent, she may be the one who knows Gojo best. People who understand it may not be sure.

He is a once-in-a-century genius. His family is a beneficiary of the "Phoenix Project". The opposite of Sakura, supporting the "Phoenix Project".

But he hates the corrupt Japanese high-level people very much.

Maybe it's because the timing is not yet ripe, or maybe there are other considerations. Up to now, Gojo Satoru has not made any actions that actually threaten the interests of high-level officials, but if the "Phoenix Project" is about to sacrifice Big, where's the best friend?

When he learned that he couldn't stop the phoenix project, couldn't resist the high-level government, and couldn't even save his friends no matter what -- deep down in his heart, he must have been extremely angry and unwilling.

This kind of anger and unwillingness is enough to make him want to destroy the "Phoenix Project", and even—

Can't wait to take down the whole rotten Japanese high rise.

Shimizu Sakura's eyes fell on the black and white words, these two people - "Xia Youjie" and "Wujo Wu".

She raised her head and smiled at the staff: "I understand. Don't worry, I will do it myself and complete this soul replacement as soon as possible."

A lot of time has passed since that day, and the crucial soul transformation she personally operated has long been completed, and everything in the institute seems to have returned to calm, but this calm is not so much a stagnant pool of water, it is more like the last the tranquility.

The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is all over the building, and the air is filled with the moist smell of green grass.

If her plan is correct, it should be within these two days.

Looking at the lawn outside the research institute, Shimizu Sakura thought absently.

A few days later, the soldiers//soldiers assigned by the Japanese high-level directly surrounded the entire research institute, and Shimizu Sakura was exposed. They seemed to have collected enough evidence to prove that her true identity was Shimizu Sakura and not Shimizu Rin, no In order to investigate again, he directly issued an order to arrest her.

However, their long-term contempt for clones made them mistakenly underestimate her strength. Shimizu Sakura, who had been prepared for a long time, escaped to the edge of the Sea of ​​Japan as if she was in nowhere. One step away, she was caught.

The tall and straight white-haired young man took off his blindfold, revealing those blue eyes as beautiful as the sky. He is about 20 years old and has a very handsome appearance.

The sea at night is not as calm as it is during the day. Under the gloomy sky, the sea is bottomless, and the waves are turbulent like mountain peaks. When they come, they come with the howl of a strong wind, but they break into snow-white waves in an instant.

The boat swayed up and down with the undulating waves, and they stood and the other sat, not talking, just looking at each other, the wind brushed the broken hair on his forehead, and his collar was flying wildly in the sea wind.

In the end, Gojo Satoru was the first to break the silence, and he said with a smile: "Miss Shimizu, you don't seem surprised to see me at all?"

"Why should you be surprised?"

"Because I was the one who reported you to the top of the government."

She laughed: "Then I should be happy."

"happy?"

"Because this shows that Mr. Xia You told you the truth, and you decided to cooperate with me in carrying out the plan."

"Eh—?" He dragged his tone, and his slight tone made him sound a little frivolous, "So confident in us? Isn't Miss Shimizu afraid that Jie and I will cross the river and tear down the bridge?"

"What good does crossing the river and demolishing the bridge do for you?" Qingshuiying said, "Wujo-kun and Xia You-kun are both smart people, and they must know that since I dared to cross the sea and take such a big risk to save Xia You-kun, Then there must be someone behind. It doesn't matter if you don't want to cooperate with me, but in this way, I have to expose that Mr. Xia You's soul did not die in the soul transformation. After implementing the "Phoenix Plan" What will happen to the cloned person of identity? After this high-level government operation, you should also understand clearly? Of course you can bet, but if you lose the bet, there will be no second chance. "

"Is this a threat?"

"This is an invitation to cooperate."

The voices of both of them were light and fluttering, but they didn't mean to give in at all.

After a while—or just after a while, Gojo Satoru tilted his head and laughed, he bent down and approached Shimizu Sakura, and looked at her carefully as if seeing her clearly for the first time: "It's really interesting ~Are you really Shimizu Sakura and not Shimizu Rin? You are so calm and rational, so smart that you don’t seem to be a girl of your age...you have always grown up like this?"

His sudden approach made Shimizu Sakura not used to it, and she turned her face slightly displeased, ignoring the worthless part of his words, and continued: "Gojo-kun means you agree to cooperate?"

"That's right~" Wujo Gou straightened up and nodded bluntly, "After all, even if you didn't threaten me, I planned to come to you."

The idea of ​​reforming Japan's top management was neither because of Shimizu Sakura nor Xia Youjie. Long before that, and even longer, he had already felt deeply disgusted and disgusted with this rotten and hopeless situation. .

How greedy are these people?

Abusing power, trampling on human rights, and depriving innocent lives of innocent people is not enough for a lifetime of glory and wealth, and even delusions will last forever.

Broken oranges should rot in the trash.

It is not that there are people in the government who oppose the "Phoenix Project", but over the years, there have been too many people who have benefited from the "Phoenix Project", those who support it are almost immortal, and those who oppose it have their time, so support The number of people far exceeds the number of people who oppose it. They firmly control most of the power, and it will be useless for others to resist even if they want to.

With Gojo Satoru's strength, it's not impossible for him to kill those who support the "Phoenix Project", but what's the point of simply killing them?These forces have long grown into towering trees with intertwined roots. After killing one group of people, another group will appear sooner or later. People's greed is endless, let alone the pursuit of life?As long as the device that can support soul conversion still exists, as long as the control center of [Puppet Deed] still exists, the "Phoenix Project" will never disappear.

This is an almost unsolvable dead question.

But Shimizu Sakura said that this is not an unsolvable dead question.

"If they have checked my research topics and thesis records over the past few years, they will find that my research has always focused on the fields of psychology and psychic power, and the most researched is 'the feasibility of implanting ideas with mind-transforming devices' This topic. But in fact, in the past five years, I have really devoted my mind to researching only one problem—how to reversely control the [Puppet Contract] in the spiritual realm.”

[Puppet Deed] is the center that controls all conversion devices. It has its own operating logic and cannot be controlled by humans. It has never made a mistake for many years.This is a miracle created by Qingshuilin, because of its existence, the "Phoenix Project" has a basis for implementation.

Whoever can control it will master the entrance and exit of the spiritual realm.

But now that Qingshuilin is dead, no one knows how it was made.

Shimizu Sakura spent five years researching this thing.

"Well, it sounds very good, but did you forget to consider a very important thing?" Gojo Satoru rubbed his chin and said, "In the spiritual realm, our mental power fluctuations are always under the monitoring of the outside world. , you have to use all your mental power to invade [Puppet Deed]—not to mention whether you can do it—your mental power will inevitably gradually decay during the test. It is impossible for this strange phenomenon not to arouse the suspicion of observers , and as long as they have doubts about this, they can easily detect your purpose, declare failure directly, and the game is over."

"That's why I'm researching the 'feasibility of using mind-transforming devices to implant ideas'."

She curved her lips.

Wujo Wu raised his eyebrows.

The real purpose should be like an iceberg in the sea, what floats on the sea is always only a small part, always just a cover-up.

In the plan, they will join forces to play a play.

In the eyes of the outside world, Shimizu Sakura personally operated the soul transformation, which killed Wujo Wu's best friend, and Wujo Wu hated Shimizu Sakura because of this, not only reported her, but also when she was about to escape. Arresting her back to the country extinguished her last hope of surviving.

No one will doubt the possibility of cooperation between such two people who hate each other deeply.

Next, Gojo Satoru will be "injured and comatose", and his spiritual realm will be severely damaged. In order to save his heir, the Gojo family can only ask her for help.

In order to survive, Shimizu Sakura, who had a "deep hatred" with him, was "forced to have no choice but to design a four-story script to stimulate his spiritual realm, racking his brains to think about how to use him to keep himself alive.

Every time she ends up in a script, she dies. Every time she dies in the spiritual realm, the fluctuation of her mental power will be weakened. They will only think that she is clever but was mistaken by her cleverness. Has it quietly invaded the [Puppet Deed]?

She knows that those people outside are smart people, they are used to being cautious, they will definitely doubt the real purpose of her designing these four layers of scripts, and they don't hesitate to use a magnifying glass to analyze the hidden meaning in the plot frame by frame, but the more they analyze The four-story script is farther away from her true purpose.

In their view, these four layers of scripts are complex and treacherous, and each layer has an anchor point, which is carefully woven by her into a wonderful design for Gojo Satoru's "implantation of ideas".

But for Shimizu Sakura, how can she use the spiritual realm if she wants to plant an idea in others?

People always believe in the truth that they have personally explored. How would they know that the conclusions they have worked so hard to reach are actually just ideas implanted by her?

Every layer of her script ends with her own death.

And every time she died, it was for a new life.

"Since it's cooperation, let me hear your specific plan, right?"

"The specific plan is..."

The unfinished words were buried by the sound of howling waves.

Gojo Satoru successfully captured Shimizu Sakura and returned home.

The high level of the government breathed a sigh of relief, but they were still afraid that this would threaten the existence of the "Phoenix Project", so they specially promulgated a law for her, and they couldn't wait to put her in court to sentence her offense.

The trial process cannot be made public, and of course it is impossible for a lawyer to defend her. Shimizu Sakura stood quietly in the center of the courtroom, listening to the judge pronounce her crimes without saying a word.

She didn't speak until the last word fell, "I don't recognize this judgment."

"Are you going to deny the fact that you killed Qingshuilin?"

The majestic voice of the judge seemed to come from a very high place.

Shimizu Sakura smiled slightly: "No, what I mean is that Shimizu Lin wanted to kill me, and my counterattack caused her to die. At most, it can only be regarded as a legitimate defense—or even if I overdid it—sit here Murderers, what qualifications do you have to judge me?"

As soon as the word "murderer" came out, there was a commotion in the courtroom. Because of the particularity of this sentence, it could not be made public. All the judges, prosecutors, and jury present were people who had participated in the "Phoenix Project".

But—it was just killing a few clones. How could the high-ranking vested interests think that they killed people?

Shimizu Sakura turned a deaf ear to the uproar and commotion around her, and she continued: "If you think you are innocent, why don't you dare to conduct this trial publicly, why don't you dare to announce my charges to the outside world?"

"The one who can't see the light, who is it?"

The voice fell, and there was a moment of silence.

"You're just a clone." The judge said slowly with a cold voice, "Shimizu Sakura, you're just a clone created using genetic technology."

"Yes, I don't deny my identity." Shimizu Sakura said calmly, "I know that in your view, we clones are just 'pets', 'containers', 'scapegoats' with the same genes as yours. '. Created by you without choice, and killed by you without choice, neither independent personality nor human rights, it seems that you have provided genes and technology, so you should naturally control and dominate our lives , you never treat us as human beings."

"But..." She closed her eyes, and opened them again after a long time, "But our appearance is human, and the blood flowing in our body is also red, and we still feel pain even if we are cut. The sense of smell, taste, and vision are no different from yours. We will be afraid of death, we will be happy when we encounter happy things, and we will feel sad when our friends leave. We live in this world, and we live in this world with you. There is no difference! We are human beings too! Why can we not be regarded as human beings, can be trampled on human rights and deprived of life at will?"

"You are not our masters, and we are not your property."

"We don't need to dedicate everything to you, and we don't need to sacrifice for you. We don't depend on anyone to live, and we are not inferior to others."

"I am a human being, a human being with an independent personality just like you and everyone else."

"I know that just a few words can't convince you, and you won't agree with me, but it doesn't matter. You can deny me, trample on me, or even kill me, but you can never completely destroy me."

"Because everyone is equal from birth into this world."

Her speech could not move them, but she aggressively pronounced a fact to them—all the people present were criminals with blood on their hands.

Some people were already agitated due to anxiety, and everything could not be further out of control—the judge immediately sentenced her to death, but in a hasty gesture, it seemed to be somewhat embarrassed.

Shimizu Sakura was taken back to the prison by the police. On the way out of the court, some out-of-control people screamed and cursed at her, accusing her of being a clone who wanted to ask for human rights. Sooner or later, she will pay for her greed pay the price.

【Do not. 】

Shimizu Sakura thought.

Perhaps it was because her face was too pale, but her usual weak facial features showed a bit of ice-like coldness at this time.

[The ones who will pay the price for greed are you. 】

A few days later, Gojo Satoru was seriously injured and fell into a coma. The Gojo family sent people to the prison to "visit" Shimizu Sakura, and threatened and lured her, hoping that she could heal the sole heir of the Gojo family.

The "desperate" Shimizu Sakura agreed to their request.

The day she left the prison was sunny and clear.

It seems to indicate that the plan that is about to start will definitely have a good ending.
