Dice has to give me spoilers for the plot of Ke Xue

"...The latest news, the truth about the bombing incident at the Dongdu Suburban Biological Company in the early morning of the 1st was revealed."

"The investigation revealed that due to the negligence of the personnel on duty that day in a laboratory of the company, the circuit of the high-power experimental equipment was accidentally short-circuited, causing the equipment to explode, and then a fire was caused... At present, many parts of the building have been damaged in the fire, and the estimated loss..."

"A spokesperson for the company declined to comment further, and our guess is—"

With the screen turned off, the host's enthusiastic news commentary suddenly disappeared.

Resting her chin with one hand, Riya blinked, the corners of her lips slightly raised.

No matter how you guess, no one else in the world will be able to figure out the truth of that day.

She has already walked so many roads ahead, and the final ending, of course, must be perfect.

Hagiwara Kenji, as Ania, is just a handy tool man, and his own wishes are irrelevant; however, holding many cards in his hand, Riya, who has changed his mind, wants to bring this police officer back to the world, and it doesn't take much. How much strength.

First of all, the gap of those four years really existed, but the core secret of this experiment, apart from Rum himself, the researchers who knew no more than three fingers, and everyone else just obeyed orders.

For these ordinary people with weak willpower, Liya easily modified their thinking and memory.

The experiment itself is originally electronic data, most of which are stored in the host computer. As long as a few paper materials are collected and piled up on the side of the host computer that is set to start the self-destruct program at regular intervals, all the data that should not exist can be wiped out together.

In the end, Liya didn't expect that the one who expended her most energy was actually the police officer Hagiwara himself.

This police officer actually succeeded in resisting the first hypnosis check, forcing her to use the opportunity of [Turning disaster into blessing] that she had always kept.

The upper limit of will has been reduced to [50], which deviates from the minimum value of rational thinking that she set for herself [52].

If you want to recover again, you can only rely on luck and fate... [Turn misfortune into blessing] This skill will probably be forced to be sealed in the future.

Of course the result is satisfactory enough.

There is no need to fabricate a false four-year memory, as long as Liya induces him to add fragmentary fragments and some details in the past blank based on the short laboratory experience of Police Officer Hagiwara after waking up, his brain can do the rest by itself. Completed.

After all, he was here to be a test subject, not on vacation. If it really had no effect on his memory being clear and complete, that would be something so weird that it would be suspicious.

It may not sound that decent, but neither Ania nor Riya have such a high moral standard for themselves.

Anyway, as long as the result meets expectations, the process of achieving the purpose is completely insignificant.

Looking at the time for the last time, she restrained her thoughts, got up and put on her coat, ready to go out.

Today, police officer Kenji Hagiwara finally completed the process, regained his identity, and can officially return to society.

With such an efficient working speed, I know that the secret promotion of the two public security bosses must be indispensable; moreover, the Hagiwara police officer has been identified as a victim of the organization, so he only needs to be observed for a period of time, and reinstatement is not a problem.

Therefore, now Riya can finally reveal the news.

"...I see, Officer Matsuda will return to the Explosive Division soon...Did Officer Asai not object?"

When he walked to the door of the office, Riya just heard the voice of the unfamiliar police officer Takagi Wataru from inside the door.

It sounded like she was chatting everyday, so she didn't pay much attention to it, and pushed the door open after two light knocks.

He was always elusive, but recently there has been frequent turmoil in the organization, and the boss is almost invisible every day, and there are only two people in the office.

"Riya?" Matsuda Jinpei cast his gaze immediately.

Takagi nodded awkwardly at her: "Officer Asai, good afternoon."

After a simple greeting, he didn't stay long and left in a hurry.

Discussing colleagues behind the scenes, but being overheard by the person concerned, normal people will feel ashamed.

Glancing at him and taking it back, Riya turned to ask about the business of coming here today: "Jinpei, did you ask for leave this afternoon?"

"It's been passed. The police department asked me to go back and wait until next week and come back directly to go through the formalities." After simply packing up his things, he stood up. The curly-haired young man was still a little confused, "What is it that needs to be freed immediately?"

"Well, it's good news anyway."

Deciding to keep the surprise for him to experience, she just gave a vague answer for the time being.

……

Riya is right, it is indeed good news.

Standing there expressionless, thinking so in his heart, Matsuda Jinpei clenched his fist unconsciously.

Especially a certain face that he has seen many times on the tombstone, at this moment he still smiled at him as if nothing had happened, and his tone was as natural as if nothing had happened: "Xiao Zhenping, long time no see~"

"Hagiwara's health is fine," seemed to sense his mood, and from behind came a slow reminder from Rei Fuburani that he didn't think it was a big deal, "At most, his muscles have degenerated, anyway, he will definitely not be able to beat you now."

Hagiwara Kenji, who was still trying to create a peaceful and friendly reunion atmosphere, was surprised by this unexpected backstab.

"Xiao Jianggu, I always thought you were the most upright one—wow, how dangerous!"

With both hands parrying the blow that almost landed on the face from Yotsuran, Hagiwara Kenji exaggeratedly shouted: "Little Jinpei, you actually sneak attack...uh."

Just when he was still exaggerating and screaming in pain, Matsuda Zhenping swiftly swung his second punch, mercilessly hitting him in the face, straight to the stomach.

After receiving this punch firmly, his abdomen with well-developed nerve endings was attacked, and Kenji Hagiwara's eyes went dark in an instant.

However, when it really hurt, he didn't say a word, just gritted his teeth and endured it.

"Why don't you wear explosion-proof suits?" He heard the other party ask calmly.

Because it was too negligent, because I let down my vigilance, because I didn't expect... There are too many reasons, but a mistake is a mistake, and it will not be more correct because of the reason.

Hagiwara Kenji gave a wry smile, turned serious, and apologized earnestly: "I'm sorry, Xiaozhenpei."

……

The light blond youth sighed and shook his head.

Originally watching quietly, when he heard movement next to him, Riya looked suspiciously.

"Matsuda didn't do anything seriously at all," Jiang Gu Lingfang explained in a soft voice after noticing her gaze, "Seeing how ugly his face is, I thought he would really beat him hard."

That's right, he really wanted to beat someone up, but he just gave up the chance because he thought Matsuda would hit harder.

Eyes slightly curved, Riya nodded in agreement.

Although he is often misunderstood because of his strong aura, and sometimes he does deliberately appear aggressive, but in fact he is hard-spoken and soft-hearted.

Perhaps due to the influence of practicing boxing all the year round, Matsuda herself has a very high point of real anger, at least she has never seen any real anger.

In other words, no matter how angry and short-tempered he was, he could always maintain his last sanity.

While her thoughts were wandering, she suddenly heard Jiang Gu Ling whisper: "The promotion letter should be sent to you next week."

"Eh, so fast?" Riya was slightly startled.

Could it be that in the short time she was away, the work efficiency of the Metropolitan Police Department has doubled?

But after thinking about it in a blink of an eye, she understood.Although she was not directly involved, she also knew that Rei Fuguya and the others were countering the setup. With the joint efforts of Curacao, Shirley, and the FBI who had negotiated cooperation, the progress was smooth.

The reason why she hastily honored her merits was probably because the middle and upper management had already prepared a celebration banquet to compete for the results, so they came to appease people in advance.

She herself is not very keen on promotion... Although she can be promoted to the police department after a year or so of employment, it seems a bit ostentatious to say this.

However, if she came up with real achievements, of course she would not refuse the part she deserved.

Just when several people had different thoughts, the door of the ward was pushed open again, and then a slim figure with long blond hair hurried in. When he looked at the person on the bed, his walking pace subconsciously slowed down.

Although I haven't seen it before, Riya has also seen the picture of this dashing woman - Hagiwara Kenji's older sister, Hagiwara Chihaya.

Well, although the data in the national information database has been re-authenticated, some of the procedures require the cooperation of the family members to complete the confirmation, so in the morning the police notified the family members who could arrive as soon as possible by the Hagiwara police officer.

Seeing his sister, Kenji Hagiwara lost his relaxed smile to his friends, and lost the joy and guilt of reuniting with You Shuran... When he waited for the familiar figure to approach, he showed a very rare flustered look .

"Sister..." He opened his mouth several times, but in the end he just yelled out in a low voice.

Hagiwara Chihaya pursed her lips tightly, and when she stood in front of him, her complexion became pale almost visible to the naked eye, and her voice was so weak that it sounded like a question: "Kenji?"

Kenji Hagiwara nodded heavily in response, but the next moment was greeted with raised palms.

While smiling wryly in his heart, he closed his eyes and consciously prepared himself mentally.

But the pain didn't come, he waited for a long time, and when he wanted to take a peek in doubt, he felt the cool liquid fall on his face.

The social skills that have always been handy are completely useless at this moment, Hagiwara Kenji almost wiped her tears in a hurry: "Don't be angry, I'm still sitting here now... It's all over..."

"That's right." Chihaya Hagiwara smiled at him with tears in his eyes as he nodded indiscriminately, "It's the best thing that you are safe and sound now."

……

Although he has long been used to it, Jiang Gu Ling subconsciously looked away when he saw this kind of scene.

As if nothing had happened, he picked up the topic that was interrupted before, turned his head to look at his subordinate, and continued in a steady tone: "The approval is so fast because your merits are enough. Seriously speaking, you have been promoted twice in a row." Level is not a problem..."

"It's okay," Riya, who was listening carefully, suddenly caught a glimpse of the figure walking this way out of the corner of his eye, and hurriedly interrupted, "Actually, I'm quite satisfied."

However, it seems to be a step too late.

Just walking to them, Matsuda Jinpei tilted his head slightly, with his usual expression, and naturally joined the topic: "What are you talking about, going up two levels in a row?"

Glancing at her boyfriend's expression, she calmly cast a look of emergency cover at her boss for help.

Don't mention the promotion of two consecutive ranks. Normally, they will only be promoted to two consecutive ranks in the form of posthumous awards after they die in this profession.

This statement is very ambiguous, although she doesn't mind, but...

"It's nothing." Originally absent-minded, Jiang Gu Ling didn't notice her small movements at all, and replied casually, "Just to sigh, Asai could have been promoted two levels in a row..."

His voice was getting low, Jiang Gu Ling looked at him, suddenly realized that something was wrong, and hastily made amends: "It's the one who was promoted normally and went up two levels in a row!"

"I know." The curly-haired youth responded calmly.

This is just a potentially unlucky statement, and Riya doesn't mind it, but subconsciously wants to avoid it in front of him.

Since he didn't seem to have any extra associations, she put the matter aside and changed the subject naturally.

It's already in the late stage of wound healing, wrapped in gauze, even after taking medicine, I still feel itchy from time to time.

Although he knew that this was a necessary stage of healing, but when he accidentally woke up from sleep again because of this, Riya still felt the irritability that could not be dispelled.

After opening her eyes in the dark for a while, she finally couldn't bear it anymore and pulled her hands, wanting to rub the itchy wound.

--fail.

The moment he tried to move, his arm was pinned down.

A clear and deep voice came from behind: "Is the wound uncomfortable?"

"Well," she sighed, she subconsciously turned around and complained, "It feels like the wound has healed, and it's even more annoying than when I was injured."

That being the case, you should cherish your own safety even more.

Raising his hand to gently caress her shoulder, Matsuda closed his eyes and calmed down his voice: "Even if it hurts, don't move, otherwise the wound will heal even slower."

"It's just a little annoying for a while, and I know it..."

While talking, she gradually became sober, and suddenly realized something was wrong.

Normally, even if he is awakened from a dream, isn't his voice that is not sleepy too strange?

Just light sleep, or no sleep at all?

At the same time her heart was clear, she tentatively asked in a low voice: "Are you insomnia?"

"...Did you wake up just now because I disturbed you?" Matsuda Jinping unconsciously lowered his voice a little.

Well, it is certain that this person is really suffering from insomnia.

"Is it related to the day's affairs?" Frowning slightly, Riya became serious, leaned back a little to distance himself, and made a guess, "It's too sudden to receive the news? I'm a little nervous about going back to the explosion department?"

She laughed herself first: "This is the most impossible."

"So, why can't you tell me?" Anyway, she couldn't guess it, so she simply asked.

She was asking seriously, and after thinking for a while, he gave the answer as vaguely as possible: "It's been like this for a while, and it doesn't have much impact anyway."

Riya was silent for a few seconds.

Just when Matsuda Jinpei thought she fell asleep again, he heard a soft, uncertain question: "So... because of me?"

"Just a little worried." He didn't want to put unnecessary pressure on him, so he deliberately downplayed it.

"..." Her throat tightened for a moment.

So, what was subconsciously ignored at the time was really the correct answer.

It's not that there are no extra associations, obviously I mind it; and "this period of time", how long has it been?

Was it after the bomb was dismantled at the Mihua Hospital last time... or earlier, when she started to move around in order to contact Curacao?

No wonder the last time I knocked on the door, I heard it so quickly. It was already early in the morning, and I should have been asleep.

He didn't hear a response for a long time, but his subordinates felt a slight tremor. Matsuda Jinpei raised his hand nervously and rubbed the corner of her eyes: "Don't cry..."

The warm weight suddenly nestled over the position of his heart, he sighed lightly, let her lean on him, and rubbed his slightly disheveled long hair with a little force.

"Okay, it's not your problem." So comforted in a low voice.

"I didn't cry at all," Mutan retorted, Liya tried to keep his voice steady, and whispered, "It's just that my wound hurts and I want to drink."

"This won't work." Without thinking about it, Matsuda Jinpei directly refused.

There was a slight silence on the other side, and he couldn't help but reflect on whether his tone was too serious.After all, it was a long and narrow wound, and it didn't just scratch the skin shallowly. The time it takes to heal, the pain must be very hard...

Thoughts are temporarily interrupted.

The gentle touch came up with a shallow air current, blocking his thoughts of continuing to speak.

Rubbing lightly, she distanced herself a little, lowered her voice unknowingly: "If you are uneasy, take action to confirm, will it be better?"

"But the wound..." Although the light was blurred, Matsuda Jinpei subconsciously looked at her right arm which was still wrapped in bandages, frowning slightly.

"Can you avoid it with a little attention?" She didn't think it was too troublesome.

Without speaking again, he raised his hand and exerted a slight force on the back of her head, erasing the short distance, returning to contact, and responded silently and firmly.

……

He tried to raise his arms, and at the moment of the intentional movement, he was firmly restrained by a firm and unshakable force, and at the same time, the palms that were intertwined were also tightened.

Sure enough, it was very different from before.

Powerful, in control, irresistible.

Moreover, it seemed that she misunderstood her meaning. After a few minutes, she was supported to sit up a little, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

"Wait a minute..." The sudden change of center of gravity made her press his shoulder unbearably, and adapt to it while borrowing strength.

As always, her request was complied with.

"So do you feel it?" She spoke again soon, her tone was very light and a little unsteady, "I am indeed here."

"Not enough." Matsuda Zhenping sighed in a low voice.

In the dim light, Li Ya raised his eyes and glanced at him: "..."

Obviously, I really feel that the mood has stabilized a bit.

Seemingly aware of the questioning in her silence, the curly-haired young man leaned over to kiss, and explained intermittently: "Although I have obtained it... I still don't feel it."

"But I'm here," Liya tilted her head, and Liya felt a little helpless, "If this is not enough to prove existence... hiss."

For the flaws she voluntarily exposed, Matsuda Jinpei chose to use the tip of her teeth, leaving a slight tingling mark on the originally smooth surface.

This insignificant strength will not cause any discomfort at all, but it is hard to ignore and has a distinct presence.

Hesitant to speak, she felt the strength of being encircled, finally leaned forward, rubbed against the side of his neck and sighed: "Forget it."

"...Then stop until you can confirm it." He raised his hand to hold him to maintain balance, and at the same time gave him a soft sigh of relief.

"It doesn't matter if it's overloaded or out of control... I can still handle being self-willed occasionally."

Staring at the dark and gloomy eyes that were close at hand, she smiled slightly.

"Really, to feel or to prove."

"I'm here, by your side."

……

Probably a little overestimated my bottom line and threshold.

The difference between human beings and machines is that human beings are more delicate and fragile receptors, and in some respects, they are too flexible.

It is also disassembled and interpreted based on key weaknesses. The machine will be broken into parts, and human beings may be able to keep the appearance intact, but the spiritual collapse, melting, fragmentation and reintegration are getting closer to the limit time and time again, which can not help but make people feel wrong. This is closer to the endpoint of destruction than death itself.

While she doesn't usually think about this kind of philosophical question, at this moment, it helps her maintain the last string.

Even this weak thought, soon, with the last ray of clarity, all scattered and sank into the darkness.
