The other side of the perfect world

#29 Twins

Tens of thousands of fans gathered here to listen to their Prince Charming's dreamy love language.

This time, cunning once again relied on the blessing of the wealthy Makishima to buy special seats worth tens of millions.

Then, amidst vigilance and confusion, nothing unexpected happened throughout the concert.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, Hasegawa Haru's performance ended.

That lullaby of death—"Double Helix"—has never appeared once.

"It can't be because there is no score, so I didn't play it?"

"Of course... since it's the piano score written by myself, there's no reason why I can't memorize it."

"Then why?"

Hearing this, Kou replied with a moment of quiet contemplation, and Makishima next to him was also silent.After a while, when the audience stood up collectively to pay tribute to Haru Hasegawa, the mobile terminal suddenly vibrated.

"..."

After listening to the other party's explanation, the cunning who turned off the mobile terminal spoke slowly, his voice mixed with thunderous applause, like an unstable signal, intermittent.

"I think...the reason why Hasegawa Haru didn't play "Double Helix" again is because the person he wanted to kill...is already dead."

Eyelids trembled slightly, Makishima turned his head to look at Kou, that profile face was like a black and white engraving, stiff and cold, as if frozen by the answer he got from the mobile terminal.

"So it turns out, the person Hasegawa Haru really wants to kill is..."

The calm voice was drowned out by the second round of applause, but the cunning who was closest to Makishima could hear it clearly, the name coincided tacitly with what he thought in his heart.

the wind is blowing...

Dressed in a gorgeous coat of holographic projection, there is a person standing on the top floor of the dome, not to mention the spacious roof.

Star-like eyes are overlooking the night scene of the entire city.

"How many of those who committed suicide saw such a beautiful scene before they died, Mr. Hasegawa Haru."

Hearing the sound and turning around, Hasegawa Haru saw two figures of the same height gradually coming out of the darkness.

Where there is light, it is easier to distinguish the colors. These two people, one is black and the other is white.

"Could it be... the god of death came to claim my life?"

Haru Hasegawa joked slowly.

"What, did you do something that required your life?"

Sly asked rhetorically, holding the pistol in his hand presciently.

"Oh, the security system here is terrible, how did you get through the metal detector?"

"Heh... don't trust the machine too much, or you will end up with your brother."

Makishima smiled and provoked Haru Hasegawa.

Sure enough, when he heard the word "brother", that carefully disguised face twitched suddenly.

"She made a mistake himself, so I can't blame others..."

"Yes, Hasegawa did make a mistake."

As soon as the words fell, Qiao Nie suddenly raised his hand and aimed his ruthless gun at the calm man in front of him.

"His biggest mistake was falling in love with you—the brother who wanted to destroy him!"

The sound of rustling leaves came suddenly, and the higher the altitude, the stronger the wind.

Hasegawa Haru brushed her hair that had been sprayed with hairspray but was still disheveled by the wind, and a calm smile appeared on her face as calm as the surface of a lake.

"What do you mean, why can't I understand?"

"Stop pretending to be garlic!"

The cunning roared, but the hand holding the gun did not move at all.

"As soon as Hasegawa died, you woke up. What kind of sleeping pills can be used to revive a vegetative person under such a coincidence? Also, the time when you created "Double Helix" coincided with the time when your hue was muddy. That is to say, you did not accidentally write the score containing 'hypnotic instructions', but at that time, you really wanted to use it to kill people."

"Even if I wanted to kill someone at the time, the one who actually did the killing was She, not me."

"This is the trap you set!"

Seeing that Qiao Yao was so resolute, Hasegawa Haru folded his arms leisurely and sneered: "You said I set a trap? I would like to hear how I set the trap."

"You...remember an interview you gave before you wrote 'Double Helix'?"

"Remember……"

"During the interview, the reporter once asked you, what is the existence that you cannot surpass in this life? How did you answer it, do you still remember?"

"Remember……"

Hasegawa Haru's honesty made Makishima amused, and the face of the murderer who had also cooled down was reflected in his cold golden pupils.

"The younger brother who is more talented than you on the piano, he is an existence that you cannot surpass in this life."

"Heh, heh heh heh heh..."

Makishima's outspokenness triggered a series of unscrupulous laughter from Haru Hasegawa, like a copper bell that could not be shaken by the strong wind.

"So what's wrong, I can't surpass my brother, you think "Double Helix" was created to kill him?"

"Do not……"

Hasegawa Haru slightly raised his eyelids when he heard the decisive voice of negation.

"Correctly speaking, it's not 'kill', but 'destroy'. You...using Hasegawa's love for you and your own coma, turned him into a Dominator's execution target."

"Of course, I don't think you came up with such a complicated plan alone!"

Makishima made a timely cut.

the wind is blowing...

Even the delicate little rabbit brooch was blown trembling.

Facing the doubts of Kou and Makishima, Hasegawa Haru just naturally lowered his arms, raised his head, and looked at the sky.In the sky, the stars are reflected in the deep eyes, as bright as the Milky Way.

"That person told me that you might find me...but I didn't expect it to be so fast..."

"You...do you admit it?"

"admit?"

Pupupu laughed, Hasegawa Haru could not see the slightest bit of guilt on his calm face.

"Admit what? Admit your fantasy? After all, what you said is just inference, there is no evidence, isn't it?"

"evidence……"

How long has it been since I heard this word, and Qiao Nian couldn't help but sigh with emotion.Dominator is the best evidence in today's world dominated by the Sibyl system.With a wry smile and scratching the back of his neck, his hand holding the gun was still aimed straight at the enemy in front of him.

"At any rate, I was a policeman, and I know that without evidence, the criminal cannot be caught."

"Oh? Then let me see! Your so-called evidence..."

Swish!

With a quick movement, he took out a stack of papers from the pocket of his coat, and shook it in his hand.

"This is the "Double Helix" you wrote. You probably think that you are the only one in the world who knows this ancient hypnosis method, but you are wrong. I have already asked someone to analyze it, and I have unlocked the "hypnosis" in it. instruction'."

Following the cunning words, Hasegawa Haru's face turned pale little by little.Makishima, who noticed this, snorted ironically.

"This score is very unbelievable. It has a double 'hypnotic command'. The first is in the music, and some people who hear it will commit suicide; and the second is in the score. Hasegawa Tsubasa, who surpassed your piano talent, will be recruited. The second level of 'hypnosis instruction' hidden in the stave clef and umlaut marks... translates to...'Revenge for my brother'."

The hand that was close to the trouser line was unconsciously held, while the other hand was silently inserted into the pocket of the trousers——

Haru Hasegawa was making some kind of preparations.

The hand holding the gun clasped its five fingers, as if trying to deform the hard metal. This strength symbolized the cunning anger.

"Hasegawa Haru, what else do you have to say! You hypnotized your younger brother and let him treat innocent people as targets of revenge, just to make him a criminal in the end, and even use the Public Security Bureau to get rid of him! Why? Why did you do it? This level! Just because he is more talented than you, are you so jealous that you want to destroy him in this way!"

The spark that was bred in the chest ignited the explosives in the shout.Makishima, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but patted Qiao Nian's shoulder. That beautiful hand, like an ice pack, sucked away the excess heat from his whole body little by little.

Silence descends.

Only the sound of the wind responded to the audience's encore, playing melodies one after another in the ears.

For a long time, Kouya, Makishima, and Hasegawa Haru on the opposite side were in a stalemate like this, neither of them spoke, and neither of them took any action.

"Jealous... no..."

Finally, after a long wait, Haru Hasegawa closed her eyes, and smiled with her tightly pursed lips. The bitterness in the smile seemed to be unable to be blown away by even the strongest wind.

"That person... my younger brother, she... loves me. Do you know? He loves me, not the love between relatives, not family affection, but... he loves me as a love object. "

With a calm and detached voice, it seems that the announcer is telling the audience a story that has nothing to do with him.

Kou couldn't help taking a breath, and Makishima next to him was like a child, showing a happy expression of listening to the story.

Not caring about the audience's reaction at all, Hasegawa Haru just continued to tell the story on his own——

Maybe, he just wanted to tell himself.

"She has an incredible musical talent that I envy, but never works hard, and even though he never works hard, he can easily surpass me on the piano. She has the same face and DNA as me. My brother, She... She treats me like a lover, can you understand this feeling! Ah? Can you understand the feeling of being deeply loved by a brother you are jealous of? Hehe...hehe, hehehehe ..."

The morbid laughter seems to have been specially processed and turned into a creepy sound effect.

"I... didn't want to kill She because I was jealous of such a pediatric feeling. I didn't want to kill him in the first place. You are right, I wanted to destroy him! Just like he ruined me."

"He ruined you?"

The face that lost the smile was replaced by a dignified expression, Makishima's heart was pierced by the words "same DNA" for some reason——

An inconspicuous, but painful wound.

"Yeah...he ruined me, ruined my ability to love someone. Ever since I realized his feelings for me, I was very scared, and I am still afraid...I never knew that love is so terrible Things, being demanded by a man who looks exactly like me, and this man is my own brother... He is like a shadow, he follows me wherever I go, and I can't shake him off... Even if he moves, he will still find it, Every time the show is over, he will hide in the dressing room and stop me... Hehe, I remember my fans, many people called me the Prince of Melancholy in the beginning! Melancholy...yes, I have good reason to be melancholy... I hate those fans who keep saying that they love me, and I also hate She who keeps saying that she loves me... So, I started to create "Double Helix", but at that time I just wanted to kill She with the song, until... I meet that man."

"That man..."

Makishima knew very well who Hasegawa Haru was referring to by "that man".With exactly the same appearance, this is almost like describing the relationship between him and "that man".

"That man is the only one who understands me... He accepted my commission and helped me implement this plan. I am very grateful to him."

"Ah……"

Hearing the word "thank you", Makishima burst out laughing.

"As expected of twins, they are all the same in their stupidity!"

"What do you know!"

Haru Hasegawa suddenly let go of his voice and yelled at Makishima.

"That man helped me, no matter what his purpose was, judging from the results, he helped me destroy Ford, and that's enough. In the whole plan, only you two were an accident!"

"Accident?"

Silent laughter pierced Hasegawa Haru's eyeballs like an ice pick, Makishima shook his head, and the strands of long hair stuck to the back of his neck danced gracefully to one side under the caress of the wind.

"It may be an accident to you, but not to the 'teacher'!"

"..."

Biting his lip hard, Hasegawa Haru's hand in the pocket of his trousers was about to move.

"You have nowhere to go, Haru Hasegawa!"

The voice was as hard as the gun in his hand, and the cunning was giving an ultimatum to the man full of evil.

Perhaps this man is also pitiful, just as pitiful as Hasegawa Tsubasa, who loves his brother deeply but is hated by him. However, this man's pitifulness is far less than his hatefulness—

Cunning, I feel that I can't forgive such a man.

"Will it be wiped out by the Dominator? Or will it be killed by a bullet? You choose!"

"……yes……"

A ferocious wry smile was put on Hasegawa Haru's face. Suddenly, he opened his mouth wide open, his astonished gaze went straight through Kou and Makishima, and looked behind the two of them.

"'teacher'!!"

"what?"

The moment he suddenly turned around, something flew out with a whoosh——

Snapped!

The back of the hand was hit, and the five fingers loosened reflexively——

when!The pistol fell to the ground.

"Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha……"

Picking up the gun quickly, Hasegawa Haru suddenly seemed transformed, laughing wildly, the previous calmness and calmness seemed to be just an illusion.

The positions are reversed, at this moment, no matter how vigorous the skill is, the cunning will not dare to act rashly.

Real guns and live ammunition are easy to take away a person's life.

"Don't move! Neither of you can run away!"

With the gun, Hasegawa Haru seemed to have won the gold medal for avoiding death, and even his voice became arrogant.The muzzle of the black hole sometimes pointed at the cunning, and sometimes moved to the side of Makishima, hesitating back and forth.

The golden pupils tilted to one side, and the eyes carefully converged with the cunning eyes.

This is the common eye contact between the two of them——

Makishima is hinting at cunning, help him buy time!

With Hasegawa Haru's shooting level, as long as the cunning can take away the gun's attention for a second, he is confident in cutting Hasegawa Haru's throat——

Use a razor!

Before they made it to the rooftop, Gnaw offered to give him his beloved razor for self-defense.

What a naive man!

For him, the razor has never been a self-defense tool, but a veritable weapon.

On the other side, after understanding Makishima Kintomi's strategy, she gritted her teeth cunningly...

He understands Makishima, understands Makishima's thoughts and actions, and also understands that as long as he nods, Hasegawa Haru will surely die under the sharp razor.

Therefore, he is hesitating.

Even if life and death were at stake, the fast-running brain still gave him time to hesitate——

He didn't want to see Makishima kill people.

This man's hands were already stained with the blood of countless human beings. Even if it was for justice this time, he still hoped that he would personally bear the heavy loss of life.

"You two, what are you thinking?"

At this moment, Hasegawa Haru realized the danger, and suddenly aimed the gun at Makishima, and the index finger on the trigger moved.

"Makishima!"

There was a cry, but there was no gunfire.

The bones ached, and Makishima had the illusion of being hugged tightly by a big bear——

Cunning Shenya was hugging him, his broad and straight back was facing the muzzle of the gun that almost fired bullets.

"Hey, cunning, I think you are more lethal to me than a gun..."

"Can't you just thank me frankly!"

Subconsciously touched Makishima a few times, and after making sure that Makishima was unharmed, Kou finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Take advantage of me and ask me to thank you, what's the point of that?"

While joking, Makishima calmly put back the razor that was pulled out in an instant.

"What happened to Haru Hasegawa?"

Accompanied by the voice, Kou and Makishima turned their eyes to Hasegawa Haru, who was leaning against the railing in a daze——

The wide-open eyes are empty.

As if entering another space, the unblinking pupils stared at the phantom that did not exist in reality.

"What is he..."

"Shh!"

Suddenly, Makishima raised a finger to his lips.The slightly raised lips, like a fleshy and juicy cherry, instantly took away the sight and taste buds of the naughty... and the regular beating of the heart.

"cough……"

Involuntarily, he coughed lightly.

"there's noise……"

"Ok?"

"Listen carefully, this voice...is from the piano."

When Makishima said this, he couldn't help pricking up his ears. After searching with all his concentration, finally, his insensitive hearing caught the faint sound of the piano——

The sound of the piano.

"Is this... a double helix..."

Mumbling to himself, Makishima raised his eyelids to look at Hasegawa Haru, only to see that Hasegawa Haru with a dull face suddenly raised his hand and put the muzzle of the gun on his temple.

"what!"

boom--

There was almost no time for anyone to react, a gunshot, and Hasegawa Haru's whole body was like an overturned bottle, flipping down from the railing, together with the gun that gnawed.

This time, it was him who enjoyed the flight——

When the free but short journey reaches the end, what will greet him?

Could it be... Hasegawa Wataru?

Under the night, the sound of something falling to the ground sounded, frightening the moon to hide in the thick clouds for refuge, but the artificial holographic projection was still bright.

"It seems... the twins died in love! Congratulations, congratulations."

Behind him, an asymptomatic baritone sounded, realizing that Remakijima didn't need to use his appearance to identify the visitor.

Turning around at the same time, both he and Qiao Nian stretched their nerves to the limit.

"Ha ha……"

Along with the laughter, the tall and slender figure of a man came into view——

Familiar silver-white hair, familiar white shirt, familiar white trench coat, familiar pure white face...

"Are you... that 'teacher'!"

He grabbed the flesh of his palm fiercely, his nails turned white under the angry grip.Qiao Yao imagined how fast he would shoot when he saw this "teacher" again, but right now, the gun was lost.

"'Teacher' is just my code name, not my name."

Men are not animals with rough nerves, so they can naturally feel the strong killing intent of Qiao Niu, but just the killing intent is not enough to shake his nerves of fear.

If there is anyone who can scare him, it is only possible——

Turning to look at Makishima, as expected, Makishima was also looking at him.

There seems to be a mirror between the two, one side is real, while the other side is just a moon in the water, a flower in the mirror.

Golden pupils mirror golden pupils, identical facial features facing identical facial features.

Makishima suddenly felt that if he had the opportunity to meet the person who made such a joke with him, he must give him a big gift.

The flow trajectory of the air has changed.

It was as if two transparent airflows came from two completely different directions, twisting into a strangely shaped spiral while colliding.

The center of the spiral is cunning.

With graceful steps, the man came to Makishima and stretched out his hand——

It's unbelievable that even the palm prints are so similar.

"We met for the first time, my name... should be Makishima Seigo."
