[Comprehensive] Black and white city
Chapter 36, Scene 4 of 4
Do not pass the amount. "
"Case?" Kurosaki Ichigo answered indifferently, slightly puzzled, "Will the police handle it?"
"But...the news didn't report it. I heard that the deceased was eaten after being dismembered. The scene was very scary, and the corpses were all mutilated."
Kurosaki frowned suddenly: "I said, this isn't just a rumor or an urban legend, is it?"
"Urban legends should have more causes and consequences. If they are rumors, where did they come from?" Jinyi interjected curiously. Seeing Kurosaki looking at her, she had to shrug her shoulders, "Don't look at me like this. I know a lot~”
The young man obviously wanted to complain, but in the end he said sternly, "Since the news didn't say it should be fake, at most it's ho..." His voice came to an abrupt end, he frowned, subconsciously glanced at Jinyi, and stopped talking I didn't say any more.
Orihime, however, seemed to understand something, secretly observed Kurosaki's expression, and was relieved to see that there was nothing unusual about him, and insisted on changing the topic to the school's problem.
When Jinyi was mentioned like this, he remembered that he had promised Saya in winter to find the glutton that escaped from Hakone.
Gluttony, according to the legend, is gluttonous. He will eat everything he sees. In the end, he even eats up his own body, leaving only a huge head.But very few people in the world have seen its true face. There are also rumors that it has a sheep's body, eyes in the armpits, tiger teeth and human claws, a big head and a big mouth.
But in the final analysis, it is also a divine beast with powerful spiritual power. Even if it has been sealed for many years and becomes very weak, there is no guarantee that she can defeat it smoothly.What's more, more than three months have passed since then, maybe it has already escaped, where can I find it?
Although Saya said some time ago, judging from the traces of spiritual power that remained near the giant tree, the gluttony did indeed flee towards Tokyo.
Thinking this way, after Jinyi bid farewell to Orihime and Kurosaki downstairs, she returned home and decided to discuss with Saya again.
The room was pitch black, but the windows were open, and the night wind lifted the curtains on both sides, making whirring noises from time to time.There was a fluffy shadow lying on the window sill. She took off her shoes and tiptoed to the side. Unexpectedly, the black cat was still soundly asleep, but her ears moved slightly, and she was still breathing thinly between her sniffs. .
Strange to say, Saya has been very lethargic since this winter.Originally, he would also choose to sleep to reduce the energy consumption of his body because it was too cold in winter, but this is the first time that he has to "hibernate" until spring.
I have to say that Jin Yi was still a little worried.This is not only because Saya is her master, his weakness will also affect her state, moreover, it is an indescribable dependence.
She knew that she would leave him one day, just like the original contract said, when Saya got enough spiritual power to return to his own group, she would regain her freedom and be alone in the end.
So at least, during the time we can still get along, we must be together well.
Jin Yi subconsciously stretched out his hand towards the black cat, but as soon as his fingers touched the hair on his head, he immediately retracted.She glanced carefully, and found that Saya still had no signs of waking up, so she breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the floor against the wall.
The wind blew her hair, and there was no sound in her ears. She was thinking about the past endlessly, and gradually became drowsy, and fell asleep not long after.
The moonlight shone on this person and the cat, and the whole world seemed to be shining.At this moment, the black cat lying on the windowsill suddenly raised its head.He tilted his head to look at the girl sitting by the window, jumped down from a high place, and turned into a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy the moment he landed.
The young man looked down at Jin Yi from a high position, only his black eyes shone brightly in the moonlight on his backlit face.He quietly took a step closer, and after a while, he squatted down on one knee and gently rubbed her cheek with his palm.
"This moment is coming soon, let's work harder." There was no expression on his face hidden in the darkness, but there was tenderness in his eyes. "You are the first person who doesn't want to leave me. It was really right to choose you..."
Saya murmured something in a low voice, then slowly moved forward, brushed away the bangs on the girl's forehead with her index finger, and solemnly kissed her on the forehead, "...it doesn't matter, our wishes will all come true."
The next morning, Jin Yi woke up on the bed in his room.She thought about it carefully but couldn't remember when and where she fell asleep last night. She turned her head and looked around but couldn't find Saya, so she had to get dressed and go out alone.
She made an appointment with Taoya this afternoon, and she had a morning to spare before that, so she planned to take a look at Ikebukuro along the way.
After exiting the station, pass through the West Exit Ikebukuro Park and continue forward. There is a small open space between a newly built high-rise apartment building.
Of course, in the eyes of ordinary people, it is indeed an open space, but when Jinyi stands here, there is a wall taller than one person in front of him. Inside the wall is an antique Japanese-style building surrounded by rockery pools. The flowers and trees of this season are here. It blooms just right in the garden.
As soon as she entered the yard, the front door was opened from the inside. The two girls kept opening the door, looked at her and laughed in unison: "Welcome~ There are guests here~"
Jin Yi came here basically every other month. Of course, she didn't tell Saya about it, because she knew that the problem she wanted to figure out would definitely make Saya unhappy.
Following the two girls into the back room, I saw that the Dimensional Witch was lying on the recliner holding a cigarette stick and puffing. Although the room was filled with white mist, there was no smell of smoke.
Jin Yi found a random place to sit down, and said straight to the point: "I paid attention to what Ms. Yuzi said after I went back last time, but I still didn't find anything unusual. I just want to know, what is a dream and what is reality?
"In short, I can be sure that the previous encounter was not a dream, but if it is true, what am I in now?"
"What you see is the truth." The black-haired woman slowly exhaled a puff of white smoke, and the smoke ring turned into a butterfly, flapping its wings and landing on the top of the quilt.She reached out to catch it, but the butterfly quickly turned back into smoke.
Yuko's voice continued, "The world you think is your reality."
The girl stared at the direction where the butterfly disappeared, and smiled casually: "Even if that world is actually just a dream?"
Yuko put the cigarette rod on the low table next to her, stood up and walked in front of her, looked at her for a while, then suddenly came close to her and rubbed her chin with a meaningful smile: "This is a shop where wishes come true, as long as you make up your mind Make a wish, and I will make it come true for you."
Jin Yi accepted the witch's gaze without changing his expression, and slowly raised the corners of his lips and said, "But you didn't tell me where reality is, so of course I can't make a decision."
"If you must be obsessed with this..." The witch raised her eyebrows, straightened up and covered her lips with her sleeves, her voice was soft and slow, as if full of charm, "You have to realize where you are. If you don't When you wake up, you won’t be able to tell if it’s a dream or not.”
Jin Yi finally couldn't help frowning.
She once heard that the dream world is actually not just one layer, there are deeper dreams in the dream world, the deeper the dreamer goes, the less able the dreamer is to realize that he is dreaming.So once you fall into it, you will sleep forever.
She rubbed her forehead with a headache, and suddenly didn't know what to say.
Recently, she always thinks of what Taoya said a long time ago—are you not afraid that everything you have experienced is just a dream created by that nightmare?
How could she not be afraid?
That's why I thought of looking for the Dimensional Witch, but Ichihara Yuko's answers are always puzzling, and she doesn't have enough price to exchange her wishes now.
Jin Yi once again left the Dimensional Store without gaining anything.
Looking back, the ancient building still stands quietly in the shadow of the buildings on both sides, like the dimensional witch who has been waiting for guests for many years.
The witch said that this store can only be seen by those who want to make their wishes come true.
She may really have a wish to realize, but she hasn't realized it yet.
53. The Second Act of Six
After coming out of Yuko Ichihara's shop, it was already late, so Jinyi had no choice but to go directly to the family restaurant where she had agreed to meet with Taoya.
That store is not far from where he works today, and it is located on the edge of a park.
Jin Yi just sat down and looked at the menu for a while, when he heard a group of people coming in from the door.Several teenagers with huge ball bags on their shoulders followed the waiter through the aisle, talking and laughing. She looked up and saw a familiar face unexpectedly.
At the same time, the other party's gaze also moved over.The man was obviously taken aback when he saw her, and complex emotions flashed in his eyes.
Jin Yi pursed her lips, and had no choice but to say hello: "Long time no see, Mr. Taocheng."
Since the last time I met Hinata Chidori in the hospital, the two have never met again.They are in different classes, and they don't have any intersection except for Chidori, not to mention that they are both busy with their entrance exams, and it is common for them not to see each other for more than half a year.
Takeshi Momoshiro was probably playing with his friends nearby, and his hair was still wet on his forehead.
"I didn't expect to see you here." He stopped and smiled politely, "Xing is alone?"
Jin Yi shook her head and kept smiling: "I had an appointment with someone else, but I arrived early."
Taocheng smiled twice, looked at his companion, and was about to say goodbye, but the girl suddenly said: "Speaking of which, Taocheng-kun, did you go to the hospital to see classmate Chidori again? How is she?"
The girl still had a smile on her face, and her tone of voice was casual, making it impossible to tell how sincere the question was.Taocheng's eyes widened unexpectedly, but then, Jinyi returned to her usual smile, as if the previous expressions were all hallucinations.
"Sorry, I haven't been to the hospital again, I'm not very good at that kind of place."
"Is that so..." Taocheng let out a breath, and laughed with relief, "Chidori is still the same, but the situation hasn't deteriorated, so it's okay."
Jin Yi smiled and said nothing.She knew that it was impossible for Chidori to recover, and all her efforts were in vain.Sometimes I even think, if Taocheng knew what Chidori had done, would he still like her as much as he does now?
But she didn't like to add insult to injury, and she didn't bother to meddle in other people's affairs, so she didn't continue this topic.
Not long after saying goodbye to Momoshiro, Momoya finally came.Jin Yi happily waved at him, and was about to say hello when he saw a black cat following behind him.
She was so shocked that she forgot to speak, until the person and the cat sat down in front of her and finally recovered her voice: "Why are you together?!"
Saya jumped to her hand and glanced at her, and lay down on the table. Taoya frowned imperceptibly, and after a pause for a few seconds, she replied: "I met by chance on the road, what are you looking for? ?"
Could it be that Saya was looking for that glutton?Even though he thought so, Jin Yi shook his head: "It's nothing, he might just come out for a walk."
Taoya replied suspiciously, opened the menu and began to order.Seeing that he no longer asked about Saya, Jinyi was also relieved, and took the opportunity to find the bathroom.
And not long after she left the seat, the black cat that had been resting with its eyes closed slowly raised its eyelids and glanced at Taoya, with a lazy tone: "You said just now that you don't want to see her cry again, but that child never cries."
"How do you know if she's crying?" Taoya still stared at the menu, flipping a page casually, "She likes to hide and cry secretly since she was a child, but she pretends to be strong."
Saya snorted, and closed her eyes again: "This world is what she looks forward to, and I won't let you take her away." After saying this, he didn't speak again.
When Jinyi came back, he still only saw the black cat sleeping on the table: "This guy is really getting better at sleeping. Speaking of which, I passed the entrance exam. I'll treat you to this meal!"
"A treat?" Taoya raised her head and sized her up with a half-smile, "It should be a matter of course to pass."
"Can't you say something nice! Anyway, it's decided like this!"
Taoya sighed: "Next time, I have something to do today and I have to go back early."
Jin Yi frowned, and asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
The young man looked up at her meaningfully, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Secret."
"Mouth! This is a waste of my feelings!"
"You're so troublesome, you said it's next time."
However, at the same time a week later, Toya did not show up.
Fifteen minutes had passed since the agreed time, and he was still nowhere to be seen at the door of the restaurant.This phenomenon was so abnormal that Jin Yi made several phone calls in a row, but they never got through.Taoya is not a person who likes to be late, and if there is something to do, she will call in advance to inform her. A situation like this has never happened before.
After waiting for a while, Jinyi finally couldn't sit still, hurriedly grabbed her bag and ran to Taoya's part-time job.She had been there once before and had an impression of the store name, so she found the store easily.
As soon as she entered the door, before the waiter could speak, she quickly scanned the room: "Excuse me, is Momoya Kinomoto still here?"
"Huh?" The other party blinked blankly, as if she didn't understand what she was talking about, "This guest, do you have a reservation?"
"No, isn't Toya Kinomoto working here this afternoon? I wonder if he's gone."
Hearing what she said, the waiter was even more confused: "Momoya Kinomoto?" She tilted her head and thought about it carefully, then shook her head with resignation and regret, "But there is no waiter with that name here..."
"What?" Jin Yi opened her mouth in shock, and hurriedly retreated to the door to look at the signboard, then rushed back and said, "He is indeed working here, I have come to look for him before."
"Sorry, I have been working here for a year, and I have never heard of this name, and it is also on the schedule..."
This person didn't seem to be lying, but it was impossible to think that Taoya would disappear out of thin air.
Jin Yi stood at the door for a while, and decided to go directly to Kinomoto's house to confirm the situation.If it was Sakura, she should know about his arrangements for this afternoon.
With this in mind, she got on the tram and went straight to Tomoeda Town, and rushed to the door of Kinomoto's house without stopping.As soon as he pressed the doorbell, he glanced out of the corner of his eye, only to find that there was an unknown surname written on the nameplate by the door.
The girl's heart skipped a beat, and the premonition that had been vaguely ominous before was instantly overwhelmed.It felt as if a heavy rain suddenly poured down on a cold winter day, and the biting chill suddenly spread from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet, freezing the body to numbness.
It is impossible for her to remember the location of Kinomoto's house wrongly, not to mention that the appearance of this house has not changed from before.However, after the doorbell rang, the young woman who pushed the door out of the house was looking at her with a puzzled and vigilant expression on a strange face: "Excuse me..."
Jin Yi looked at her blankly for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Sorry, I pressed the wrong doorbell. Do you know any nearby family with the surname Kinomoto?"
The woman smiled friendlyly: "It's okay, but as far as I know, there seems to be no family with the surname Kinomoto in Tomoeda Town. Maybe you can ask other people."
"Okay, sorry to bother you."
After thanking the other party, Jin Yi walked back in a daze.She felt like a cub that suddenly lost its direction in the wild. Although the world was vast and boundless, there was nowhere she should go.
This feeling only appeared when he first became a night disaster, but even then he was never as panicked as he is now.
Not only did she lose Taoya, she even lost Kinomoto's family.No one knew where they went, or even knew them.
Taoya, Sakura, and Fujitaka, the traces of their existence have completely disappeared from this world, and their original positions have been replaced by other people, as if they had never appeared before.
Where exactly did the error occur?Did she go to another dimension unconsciously?But nothing happened before!
Jin Yi wandered aimlessly in the street, and unexpectedly returned to Ikebukuro without knowing it.As night fell, the neon lights on both sides of the road flickered, and the tall modern buildings exuded flashy and bright brilliance, noisy and lonely.The dark shadows on the street corners are swaying under the street lights, and the whole city presents a sense of mystery that is completely different from the daytime.
What to do now?Saya will definitely not be willing to help her find Taoya and the others, and it seems that she can only seek the help of Yuko Ichihara.So do you want to go there now?Or think of a way?
Just as he was hesitating, a bloody smell came from nowhere, and when he realized this, the smell had already filled the entire street.
This place is some distance away from the central area of Ikebukuro, surrounded by narrow and damp paths, the lights cannot fully illuminate the field of vision, every few steps there is a black shadow, and from time to time you can see a big mouse scurrying past the garbage dump.
Jin Yi frowned and looked around, the uneasiness just now was suddenly interrupted by this sudden situation, and turned into vigilance.She walked a few steps against the wall, only hearing her own footsteps echoing in the street, but the smell of blood was still getting stronger and stronger, and she couldn't even tell which direction was the source.
Unable to judge the situation, she didn't dare to act rashly, so she had to temporarily slow down and move to the corner, poking her head out from the wall to inquire about the situation.
The darkness in front of him became more intense, and several street lamps seemed to be broken. The weak light could only illuminate the ground within ten meters, and only blurred shadows remained in the distance.
Jin Yi thought for a while, and was about to move on, but unexpectedly, the black shadow in the distance trembled suddenly, and a human-shaped thing emerged from it.
"Huh—huh—" The thing let out two turbid and heavy breaths, then bent down and buried itself in the shadow, trying to tear something with its mouth.
In the silence, the movement of "Chi-la-" and "Chi-la-" can be clearly captured. If you are not careful, you can even imagine the picture of the flesh and nerves being torn apart. The sound of rain.
The jinyi suddenly tensed up all over his body, and he covered his mouth with his hands so as not to make a sound.
Is that thing gluttonous?But why is it in the shape of a person?
She couldn't figure out the details of the other party, and it was not her style to wait passively, and she was entangled in it. Suddenly, the humanoid thing seemed to be disturbed by something, and moved slowly and heavily.
Jin Yi immediately pricked up his ears and put on a defensive posture, but the voice was in the opposite direction. At the same time, a male voice sounded faintly: "I want to see you very much, Liangyi... Shi."
The air seemed to be a bit stagnant, followed by a slightly deep female voice: "I know."
As soon as the voice fell, the sound of metal crashing suddenly resounded through the street, and the sound of two winds mixed with the collision of sharp blades moved far and near, and finally slowly shifted to the other side, but after a while, all the sounds disappeared.
Only then did Jin Yi dare to come out of his hiding place.The blood-red liquid slowly flowed past her feet along the gutters of the street, and she kicked an object within a few steps. When she looked down, it was a broken palm of a person.
Looking around, there are several corpses scattered around the wall, each of which is broken and incomplete, and the death condition is extremely terrifying.The stumps that were separated from the body fell to the ground, and the blood almost stained the ground red.
Facing this kind of picture, even if you see too many dead people's clothes, you can't help feeling sick.She covered her nose unbearably, quickly retreated to the street corner where she had been hiding before, turned around and prepared to leave.
If the guess is correct, this should be the dismemberment case that Zhi Ji mentioned earlier.I thought it might be related to Taotie, but judging from the current situation, it seems that it is really just a murder case of a pervert, and the ultimate target of that pervert seems to be the other person I met tonight.
Since it has nothing to do with Taotie, and Jinyi has no intention of staying here for a long time, she is most concerned about the situation of Kinomoto's family.However, there was always a blocking voice in her heart, which told her that if she had to investigate further, something terrible would happen.
But she can't.
Those three people were the only intersection between her and the past, and Taoya helped her a lot, even after knowing the truth of the year, she did not abandon her.
She finally realized that she couldn't face the reality of losing them alone, it was a void that not even Saya could fill.
53. The Second Act of Six
Before I knew it, it was the second half of the night.The city is still bustling and noisy, and there are many dark creatures that are rarely seen in the daytime in the night.
Jinyi originally planned to go to Ichihara Yuko immediately, but this time he went out for a day, and the shading fluid he applied earlier had long since expired, and it would be very troublesome if it was dawn by then.But this time she forgot to bring it when she went out, so she had to go back home temporarily to find it.
It was rare for Saya to not sleep in the house, and probably went to some other place to check for information.Jin Yi didn't care, and went straight to find the last bottle of sunshade liquid from the cabinet and put it in the bag.The remaining amount can only be used once or twice at most, and she feels that it is necessary to ask Saya to ask those vampires for a few more bottles.
Just thinking about this, a sense of weightlessness suddenly hit, as if the body fell into the abyss all at once, and even the breath was taken away for a sudden moment.But before he could react, that feeling suddenly disappeared again, as if it was just a hallucination.
"what happened……"
Pressing the kimono on his chest, he felt his heart beating fast, and beads of sweat poured out from his forehead one after another. This kind of lingering fear was absolutely impossible to be an illusion.
But she is sitting in the room, and she is not a patient suffering from a serious disease, so there is no reason for this to happen.
So, could it be that Saya is in danger?
She was taken aback by this thought, and hurriedly tried to confirm the other party's current position.However, what was unexpected was that she only knew that Saya was in Tokyo, but she had no way to determine where he was.
This was a situation she had never encountered before, and she couldn't make a conclusion for a while, but it was not an option to just stay in the room like this.Jin Yi hesitated for a moment, but finally rushed out.
There is still some time before dawn, and the streets of Karakura Town are empty, only the street lamps exude a warm yellow light.She flew past the roof, and suddenly saw someone standing below looking at her from a distance, and she couldn't help but stop carefully and look back.
The man in the old kimono raised his hand to press the wide-brimmed hat on his head, and greeted her with a smile: "It's been a long time, Miss Xingmoto. You still look very energetic~"
Jin Yi twitched the corners of his mouth, stepped forward and squatted on the eaves, looked down at the man and asked, "Hey, Urahara, have you seen Saya today?"
Kisuke Urahara squinted his eyes and asked back, "Did something happen?"
"That's not true." Jin Yi smiled slightly and straightened up again, "He was not at home in the middle of the night, so I thought about going out to look for it, since I haven't seen it before."
Urahara waved his fan and laughed twice, as if he believed what she said, and didn't continue to ask.Jin Yi waved at him, and ran away without stopping.
The man didn't leave, but instead stared intently at her receding figure. After a long time, he showed a meaningful smile: "Then, I wish you good luck, little girl."
Jinyi finally arrived at the Dimensional Witch's shop before dawn.But Yuko was still sleeping, so she had to go to the parlor first to wait under the guidance of Duolu and Quanlu.
Strange to say, every time I walk into this store, my anxious mood will calm down no matter how anxious I was before.This store seems to be independent of the whole world, no matter how much the outside has changed, it is still the same for many years.
Once I feel at ease, my head is a little sleepy.Jin Yi lay on the table, watching the white mist curling up from the teacup in front of her eyes, her eyelids began to fight unconsciously.
Duo Lu and Quan Lu enthusiastically drew up the curtains, and not long after, the light from the hall began to brighten.A new day has begun again, and today I think it is a good weather.
Jin Yi curled up in the living room surrounded by darkness, but couldn't be happy at all.After thinking about it carefully, some questions have gradually been answered.
Taoya's disappearance should be within this week, but what happened to make that family disappear?Not to mention Fujitaka, Sakura has such powerful magic power, and there is also an excellent familiar, it is absolutely impossible for her to disappear so quietly.Taking a step back, even if the problem was caused by Sakura, it wouldn't affect the other two.
In this way, the biggest possibility is that the brother and sister discovered something together, so they were rejected by this world?But in this world, can it really exclude people who already exist?Or, did they not exist?
Jin Yi hugged her head with a headache, and couldn't help moaning|groaning, at this moment, a footstep stopped across the table, and she heard a woman's voice asking: "What? Does it hurt anywhere?"
She immediately raised her head and looked at him with wide eyes.The Dimensional Demon dressed in black gracefully sat down at the table, took a sip of the freshly brewed hot tea: "Let's hear your wish."
Jin Yi opened his mouth, but didn't know how to speak for a moment.She bit her lip, calmed down for a few seconds, and then said in a deep voice, "Before that, I want to ask first, the sudden feeling similar to heart palpitations... What does it mean for creatures like us?"
Yuko blinked, then curled the corners of her lips to look at her from beginning to end: "This also varies from person to person. If you want to clarify the specific reason, you still need to ask your contractor."
"What is the greatest possibility?"
"Well, under normal circumstances, it's because of a mutation in him—a sudden increase or decrease in ability, or it may be because he went to another dimension."
"Then...why is it impossible to determine his specific location?"
"He doesn't want you to find him."
"why?"
"Of course there are reasons why you don't want you to find him."
In just one day, so many things happened without warning, which made Jinyi a little unacceptable. Besides, there may be a lot of confusion and confusion.
She didn't understand why Saya didn't let herself find him, and she wasn't sure if Taoya's disappearance had anything to do with him.There are too many mysteries, and all the clues are entangled, and even the ends of the threads are missing.
The room became quiet again, and the sound of the clock came from nowhere, ticking, ticking, clearly telling the passage of time.
"Miss Yuko, I hope... Please help me find Saya." The girl slowly raised her head, the brilliance in her amber eyes flashed, and a touch of black seemed to smudge under the moonlight, silently condensing and dispersing.
"I have a lot of questions I want to ask him, and those answers are important to me."
Ichihara Yuko looked at her clearly, and asked slowly: "Is this your wish?"
"Yes." Jin Yi took a deep breath, and added, "No matter what the result is, what choice will I make in the future, but now, I can't do without finding him."
"I understand."
Yuko lowered her eyelids, an ambiguous smile formed on the corner of her lips.She stretched out her hand, and gently slid her palm across the table. When she moved away, a pair of golden bells appeared in the center of the table.
"Take this with you."
Jin Yi looked at Yuko in confusion, seeing that she didn't seem to intend to explain, so she got up first and brought the bell in front of her.However, just when the fingertips touched the chain woven with three-color rope, the pair of bells made a crisp sound of "Dang".
The girl's eyes widened immediately, and she looked at Yuko again, who was still sitting at the table with a smile on her face, took a sip of tea and said slowly: "You should know how to use it, right? If it's the price...just take that. "
As soon as she finished speaking, Jin Yi saw the things that she had been hiding in her pockets slowly floating up.Surrounded by soft light, the white feather looked pure and spotless in the dark. After it rose to the top of the table, it shook a little, and finally landed in front of Yuko.
Jin Yi thought for a while, but still felt that he should remind: "That feather is not mine."
"Of course I know." Yuko held her chin and smiled, and called Duolu to put away the things, "It's just in your hands."
Since the other party has said so, she has no objection.After hanging the bell on his wrist, Jin Yi borrowed a room to apply sunscreen on his body, and left the shop.
The sun is shining outside, the breath of spring is coming, and the streets are full of cherry blossoms.She suddenly remembered that at this time last year, she had gone to the park with Toya and Sakura to enjoy the flowers, but now at this time, she had to find the answer to the question alone.
Who is she?Why is she here?
The bell on the wrist rang crisply from time to time. Although he couldn't see it, the aura surrounding his body did gradually change.Jinyi stopped at a crossroads, and was concentrating on deciding which direction to go, when she heard someone call her name.
Following the prestige, I saw a brown-haired man struggling to move away from the crowd, met her gaze, and immediately laughed happily: "It's great that I didn't admit my mistake, why are you here alone, 衿衣ちゃん?"
"Gang?" Jin Yi blinked in surprise, "You're the one, what's the matter in Ikebukuro?"
"Kyoko is taking the child for an examination at the hospital, and my elder brother asked me to come and pick her up." Tsunayoshi Sawada touched his head, walked over and bent down to look at her and said, "The sun is so bright today, so it doesn't matter if you come to a place with so many people ?”
Jin Yi quickly laughed twice, waved his hands and said, "It's okay, hasn't it always been like this before? I'm very strong!"
Sawada shook his head and rubbed her hair helplessly: "However, it's impossible not to cherish yourself more."
It was obviously a very common sentence, but it made her nose ache suddenly.The girl hurriedly stopped talking, rubbed her nose vigorously with the back of her hand, and said in a muffled voice: "Okay, I will pay attention to it in the future. It's really long-winded!"
Sawada laughed twice, and wisely did not continue this topic: "Where is Jin Yi ちゃん going now?"
"Nothing special..." Jin Yi raised his head and looked at the young man in front of him, his face was soft and beautiful under the sun, his brown eyes were like some kind of unique jade, warm and penetrating.
She couldn't help thinking of Taoya, she was a little scared, afraid that this person would disappear suddenly like Taoya?
As soon as her head got hot, she didn't even think about what she was going to say, and she blurted out: "Why don't we go to the hospital with you."
Sawada was taken aback for a moment, but unexpectedly did not object, then nodded and said: "Alright, let's go together."
After the two arrived at the hospital, Sawada made a phone call first and learned that Kyoko's side was not over yet, so he and Jinyi temporarily stayed in the garden downstairs and waited.
The closer to noon, the hotter the weather.Fortunately, there is a shade tree where the sun is not so intense.
Sawada saw that it was still early, so he ran to a nearby vending machine to buy drinks.Jin Yi nestled listlessly in the shadows, paying attention to the movement of the bell from time to time.
At this moment, there was a commotion at the gate, and a commercial vehicle was slowly approaching the side of the road. After the door opened, six people stepped out of it, among them a tall man in a suit and carrying a bag of unknown purpose. The instrument is full of posture.
She was far away from them, but the black-haired girl in kimono turned her head and looked over as if she had noticed her gaze. Her calm black eyes were like the dark bottom of the sea, which instantly shocked her.
The girl turned out to be a psychic.
Jin Yi frowned, subconsciously looking at the hospital building.
The hospital has always been one of the places where spirits and grievances are most concentrated, and it is not surprising that those spiritual masters will appear here.It's just that Kyoko is still inside, should she talk to Sawada or go up and have a look?
She stood up and looked in the direction the young man left just now.The figure of the other party has not yet appeared. If the phone calls and it seems that the matter is serious, it may make him
"Case?" Kurosaki Ichigo answered indifferently, slightly puzzled, "Will the police handle it?"
"But...the news didn't report it. I heard that the deceased was eaten after being dismembered. The scene was very scary, and the corpses were all mutilated."
Kurosaki frowned suddenly: "I said, this isn't just a rumor or an urban legend, is it?"
"Urban legends should have more causes and consequences. If they are rumors, where did they come from?" Jinyi interjected curiously. Seeing Kurosaki looking at her, she had to shrug her shoulders, "Don't look at me like this. I know a lot~”
The young man obviously wanted to complain, but in the end he said sternly, "Since the news didn't say it should be fake, at most it's ho..." His voice came to an abrupt end, he frowned, subconsciously glanced at Jinyi, and stopped talking I didn't say any more.
Orihime, however, seemed to understand something, secretly observed Kurosaki's expression, and was relieved to see that there was nothing unusual about him, and insisted on changing the topic to the school's problem.
When Jinyi was mentioned like this, he remembered that he had promised Saya in winter to find the glutton that escaped from Hakone.
Gluttony, according to the legend, is gluttonous. He will eat everything he sees. In the end, he even eats up his own body, leaving only a huge head.But very few people in the world have seen its true face. There are also rumors that it has a sheep's body, eyes in the armpits, tiger teeth and human claws, a big head and a big mouth.
But in the final analysis, it is also a divine beast with powerful spiritual power. Even if it has been sealed for many years and becomes very weak, there is no guarantee that she can defeat it smoothly.What's more, more than three months have passed since then, maybe it has already escaped, where can I find it?
Although Saya said some time ago, judging from the traces of spiritual power that remained near the giant tree, the gluttony did indeed flee towards Tokyo.
Thinking this way, after Jinyi bid farewell to Orihime and Kurosaki downstairs, she returned home and decided to discuss with Saya again.
The room was pitch black, but the windows were open, and the night wind lifted the curtains on both sides, making whirring noises from time to time.There was a fluffy shadow lying on the window sill. She took off her shoes and tiptoed to the side. Unexpectedly, the black cat was still soundly asleep, but her ears moved slightly, and she was still breathing thinly between her sniffs. .
Strange to say, Saya has been very lethargic since this winter.Originally, he would also choose to sleep to reduce the energy consumption of his body because it was too cold in winter, but this is the first time that he has to "hibernate" until spring.
I have to say that Jin Yi was still a little worried.This is not only because Saya is her master, his weakness will also affect her state, moreover, it is an indescribable dependence.
She knew that she would leave him one day, just like the original contract said, when Saya got enough spiritual power to return to his own group, she would regain her freedom and be alone in the end.
So at least, during the time we can still get along, we must be together well.
Jin Yi subconsciously stretched out his hand towards the black cat, but as soon as his fingers touched the hair on his head, he immediately retracted.She glanced carefully, and found that Saya still had no signs of waking up, so she breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the floor against the wall.
The wind blew her hair, and there was no sound in her ears. She was thinking about the past endlessly, and gradually became drowsy, and fell asleep not long after.
The moonlight shone on this person and the cat, and the whole world seemed to be shining.At this moment, the black cat lying on the windowsill suddenly raised its head.He tilted his head to look at the girl sitting by the window, jumped down from a high place, and turned into a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy the moment he landed.
The young man looked down at Jin Yi from a high position, only his black eyes shone brightly in the moonlight on his backlit face.He quietly took a step closer, and after a while, he squatted down on one knee and gently rubbed her cheek with his palm.
"This moment is coming soon, let's work harder." There was no expression on his face hidden in the darkness, but there was tenderness in his eyes. "You are the first person who doesn't want to leave me. It was really right to choose you..."
Saya murmured something in a low voice, then slowly moved forward, brushed away the bangs on the girl's forehead with her index finger, and solemnly kissed her on the forehead, "...it doesn't matter, our wishes will all come true."
The next morning, Jin Yi woke up on the bed in his room.She thought about it carefully but couldn't remember when and where she fell asleep last night. She turned her head and looked around but couldn't find Saya, so she had to get dressed and go out alone.
She made an appointment with Taoya this afternoon, and she had a morning to spare before that, so she planned to take a look at Ikebukuro along the way.
After exiting the station, pass through the West Exit Ikebukuro Park and continue forward. There is a small open space between a newly built high-rise apartment building.
Of course, in the eyes of ordinary people, it is indeed an open space, but when Jinyi stands here, there is a wall taller than one person in front of him. Inside the wall is an antique Japanese-style building surrounded by rockery pools. The flowers and trees of this season are here. It blooms just right in the garden.
As soon as she entered the yard, the front door was opened from the inside. The two girls kept opening the door, looked at her and laughed in unison: "Welcome~ There are guests here~"
Jin Yi came here basically every other month. Of course, she didn't tell Saya about it, because she knew that the problem she wanted to figure out would definitely make Saya unhappy.
Following the two girls into the back room, I saw that the Dimensional Witch was lying on the recliner holding a cigarette stick and puffing. Although the room was filled with white mist, there was no smell of smoke.
Jin Yi found a random place to sit down, and said straight to the point: "I paid attention to what Ms. Yuzi said after I went back last time, but I still didn't find anything unusual. I just want to know, what is a dream and what is reality?
"In short, I can be sure that the previous encounter was not a dream, but if it is true, what am I in now?"
"What you see is the truth." The black-haired woman slowly exhaled a puff of white smoke, and the smoke ring turned into a butterfly, flapping its wings and landing on the top of the quilt.She reached out to catch it, but the butterfly quickly turned back into smoke.
Yuko's voice continued, "The world you think is your reality."
The girl stared at the direction where the butterfly disappeared, and smiled casually: "Even if that world is actually just a dream?"
Yuko put the cigarette rod on the low table next to her, stood up and walked in front of her, looked at her for a while, then suddenly came close to her and rubbed her chin with a meaningful smile: "This is a shop where wishes come true, as long as you make up your mind Make a wish, and I will make it come true for you."
Jin Yi accepted the witch's gaze without changing his expression, and slowly raised the corners of his lips and said, "But you didn't tell me where reality is, so of course I can't make a decision."
"If you must be obsessed with this..." The witch raised her eyebrows, straightened up and covered her lips with her sleeves, her voice was soft and slow, as if full of charm, "You have to realize where you are. If you don't When you wake up, you won’t be able to tell if it’s a dream or not.”
Jin Yi finally couldn't help frowning.
She once heard that the dream world is actually not just one layer, there are deeper dreams in the dream world, the deeper the dreamer goes, the less able the dreamer is to realize that he is dreaming.So once you fall into it, you will sleep forever.
She rubbed her forehead with a headache, and suddenly didn't know what to say.
Recently, she always thinks of what Taoya said a long time ago—are you not afraid that everything you have experienced is just a dream created by that nightmare?
How could she not be afraid?
That's why I thought of looking for the Dimensional Witch, but Ichihara Yuko's answers are always puzzling, and she doesn't have enough price to exchange her wishes now.
Jin Yi once again left the Dimensional Store without gaining anything.
Looking back, the ancient building still stands quietly in the shadow of the buildings on both sides, like the dimensional witch who has been waiting for guests for many years.
The witch said that this store can only be seen by those who want to make their wishes come true.
She may really have a wish to realize, but she hasn't realized it yet.
53. The Second Act of Six
After coming out of Yuko Ichihara's shop, it was already late, so Jinyi had no choice but to go directly to the family restaurant where she had agreed to meet with Taoya.
That store is not far from where he works today, and it is located on the edge of a park.
Jin Yi just sat down and looked at the menu for a while, when he heard a group of people coming in from the door.Several teenagers with huge ball bags on their shoulders followed the waiter through the aisle, talking and laughing. She looked up and saw a familiar face unexpectedly.
At the same time, the other party's gaze also moved over.The man was obviously taken aback when he saw her, and complex emotions flashed in his eyes.
Jin Yi pursed her lips, and had no choice but to say hello: "Long time no see, Mr. Taocheng."
Since the last time I met Hinata Chidori in the hospital, the two have never met again.They are in different classes, and they don't have any intersection except for Chidori, not to mention that they are both busy with their entrance exams, and it is common for them not to see each other for more than half a year.
Takeshi Momoshiro was probably playing with his friends nearby, and his hair was still wet on his forehead.
"I didn't expect to see you here." He stopped and smiled politely, "Xing is alone?"
Jin Yi shook her head and kept smiling: "I had an appointment with someone else, but I arrived early."
Taocheng smiled twice, looked at his companion, and was about to say goodbye, but the girl suddenly said: "Speaking of which, Taocheng-kun, did you go to the hospital to see classmate Chidori again? How is she?"
The girl still had a smile on her face, and her tone of voice was casual, making it impossible to tell how sincere the question was.Taocheng's eyes widened unexpectedly, but then, Jinyi returned to her usual smile, as if the previous expressions were all hallucinations.
"Sorry, I haven't been to the hospital again, I'm not very good at that kind of place."
"Is that so..." Taocheng let out a breath, and laughed with relief, "Chidori is still the same, but the situation hasn't deteriorated, so it's okay."
Jin Yi smiled and said nothing.She knew that it was impossible for Chidori to recover, and all her efforts were in vain.Sometimes I even think, if Taocheng knew what Chidori had done, would he still like her as much as he does now?
But she didn't like to add insult to injury, and she didn't bother to meddle in other people's affairs, so she didn't continue this topic.
Not long after saying goodbye to Momoshiro, Momoya finally came.Jin Yi happily waved at him, and was about to say hello when he saw a black cat following behind him.
She was so shocked that she forgot to speak, until the person and the cat sat down in front of her and finally recovered her voice: "Why are you together?!"
Saya jumped to her hand and glanced at her, and lay down on the table. Taoya frowned imperceptibly, and after a pause for a few seconds, she replied: "I met by chance on the road, what are you looking for? ?"
Could it be that Saya was looking for that glutton?Even though he thought so, Jin Yi shook his head: "It's nothing, he might just come out for a walk."
Taoya replied suspiciously, opened the menu and began to order.Seeing that he no longer asked about Saya, Jinyi was also relieved, and took the opportunity to find the bathroom.
And not long after she left the seat, the black cat that had been resting with its eyes closed slowly raised its eyelids and glanced at Taoya, with a lazy tone: "You said just now that you don't want to see her cry again, but that child never cries."
"How do you know if she's crying?" Taoya still stared at the menu, flipping a page casually, "She likes to hide and cry secretly since she was a child, but she pretends to be strong."
Saya snorted, and closed her eyes again: "This world is what she looks forward to, and I won't let you take her away." After saying this, he didn't speak again.
When Jinyi came back, he still only saw the black cat sleeping on the table: "This guy is really getting better at sleeping. Speaking of which, I passed the entrance exam. I'll treat you to this meal!"
"A treat?" Taoya raised her head and sized her up with a half-smile, "It should be a matter of course to pass."
"Can't you say something nice! Anyway, it's decided like this!"
Taoya sighed: "Next time, I have something to do today and I have to go back early."
Jin Yi frowned, and asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
The young man looked up at her meaningfully, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Secret."
"Mouth! This is a waste of my feelings!"
"You're so troublesome, you said it's next time."
However, at the same time a week later, Toya did not show up.
Fifteen minutes had passed since the agreed time, and he was still nowhere to be seen at the door of the restaurant.This phenomenon was so abnormal that Jin Yi made several phone calls in a row, but they never got through.Taoya is not a person who likes to be late, and if there is something to do, she will call in advance to inform her. A situation like this has never happened before.
After waiting for a while, Jinyi finally couldn't sit still, hurriedly grabbed her bag and ran to Taoya's part-time job.She had been there once before and had an impression of the store name, so she found the store easily.
As soon as she entered the door, before the waiter could speak, she quickly scanned the room: "Excuse me, is Momoya Kinomoto still here?"
"Huh?" The other party blinked blankly, as if she didn't understand what she was talking about, "This guest, do you have a reservation?"
"No, isn't Toya Kinomoto working here this afternoon? I wonder if he's gone."
Hearing what she said, the waiter was even more confused: "Momoya Kinomoto?" She tilted her head and thought about it carefully, then shook her head with resignation and regret, "But there is no waiter with that name here..."
"What?" Jin Yi opened her mouth in shock, and hurriedly retreated to the door to look at the signboard, then rushed back and said, "He is indeed working here, I have come to look for him before."
"Sorry, I have been working here for a year, and I have never heard of this name, and it is also on the schedule..."
This person didn't seem to be lying, but it was impossible to think that Taoya would disappear out of thin air.
Jin Yi stood at the door for a while, and decided to go directly to Kinomoto's house to confirm the situation.If it was Sakura, she should know about his arrangements for this afternoon.
With this in mind, she got on the tram and went straight to Tomoeda Town, and rushed to the door of Kinomoto's house without stopping.As soon as he pressed the doorbell, he glanced out of the corner of his eye, only to find that there was an unknown surname written on the nameplate by the door.
The girl's heart skipped a beat, and the premonition that had been vaguely ominous before was instantly overwhelmed.It felt as if a heavy rain suddenly poured down on a cold winter day, and the biting chill suddenly spread from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet, freezing the body to numbness.
It is impossible for her to remember the location of Kinomoto's house wrongly, not to mention that the appearance of this house has not changed from before.However, after the doorbell rang, the young woman who pushed the door out of the house was looking at her with a puzzled and vigilant expression on a strange face: "Excuse me..."
Jin Yi looked at her blankly for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Sorry, I pressed the wrong doorbell. Do you know any nearby family with the surname Kinomoto?"
The woman smiled friendlyly: "It's okay, but as far as I know, there seems to be no family with the surname Kinomoto in Tomoeda Town. Maybe you can ask other people."
"Okay, sorry to bother you."
After thanking the other party, Jin Yi walked back in a daze.She felt like a cub that suddenly lost its direction in the wild. Although the world was vast and boundless, there was nowhere she should go.
This feeling only appeared when he first became a night disaster, but even then he was never as panicked as he is now.
Not only did she lose Taoya, she even lost Kinomoto's family.No one knew where they went, or even knew them.
Taoya, Sakura, and Fujitaka, the traces of their existence have completely disappeared from this world, and their original positions have been replaced by other people, as if they had never appeared before.
Where exactly did the error occur?Did she go to another dimension unconsciously?But nothing happened before!
Jin Yi wandered aimlessly in the street, and unexpectedly returned to Ikebukuro without knowing it.As night fell, the neon lights on both sides of the road flickered, and the tall modern buildings exuded flashy and bright brilliance, noisy and lonely.The dark shadows on the street corners are swaying under the street lights, and the whole city presents a sense of mystery that is completely different from the daytime.
What to do now?Saya will definitely not be willing to help her find Taoya and the others, and it seems that she can only seek the help of Yuko Ichihara.So do you want to go there now?Or think of a way?
Just as he was hesitating, a bloody smell came from nowhere, and when he realized this, the smell had already filled the entire street.
This place is some distance away from the central area of Ikebukuro, surrounded by narrow and damp paths, the lights cannot fully illuminate the field of vision, every few steps there is a black shadow, and from time to time you can see a big mouse scurrying past the garbage dump.
Jin Yi frowned and looked around, the uneasiness just now was suddenly interrupted by this sudden situation, and turned into vigilance.She walked a few steps against the wall, only hearing her own footsteps echoing in the street, but the smell of blood was still getting stronger and stronger, and she couldn't even tell which direction was the source.
Unable to judge the situation, she didn't dare to act rashly, so she had to temporarily slow down and move to the corner, poking her head out from the wall to inquire about the situation.
The darkness in front of him became more intense, and several street lamps seemed to be broken. The weak light could only illuminate the ground within ten meters, and only blurred shadows remained in the distance.
Jin Yi thought for a while, and was about to move on, but unexpectedly, the black shadow in the distance trembled suddenly, and a human-shaped thing emerged from it.
"Huh—huh—" The thing let out two turbid and heavy breaths, then bent down and buried itself in the shadow, trying to tear something with its mouth.
In the silence, the movement of "Chi-la-" and "Chi-la-" can be clearly captured. If you are not careful, you can even imagine the picture of the flesh and nerves being torn apart. The sound of rain.
The jinyi suddenly tensed up all over his body, and he covered his mouth with his hands so as not to make a sound.
Is that thing gluttonous?But why is it in the shape of a person?
She couldn't figure out the details of the other party, and it was not her style to wait passively, and she was entangled in it. Suddenly, the humanoid thing seemed to be disturbed by something, and moved slowly and heavily.
Jin Yi immediately pricked up his ears and put on a defensive posture, but the voice was in the opposite direction. At the same time, a male voice sounded faintly: "I want to see you very much, Liangyi... Shi."
The air seemed to be a bit stagnant, followed by a slightly deep female voice: "I know."
As soon as the voice fell, the sound of metal crashing suddenly resounded through the street, and the sound of two winds mixed with the collision of sharp blades moved far and near, and finally slowly shifted to the other side, but after a while, all the sounds disappeared.
Only then did Jin Yi dare to come out of his hiding place.The blood-red liquid slowly flowed past her feet along the gutters of the street, and she kicked an object within a few steps. When she looked down, it was a broken palm of a person.
Looking around, there are several corpses scattered around the wall, each of which is broken and incomplete, and the death condition is extremely terrifying.The stumps that were separated from the body fell to the ground, and the blood almost stained the ground red.
Facing this kind of picture, even if you see too many dead people's clothes, you can't help feeling sick.She covered her nose unbearably, quickly retreated to the street corner where she had been hiding before, turned around and prepared to leave.
If the guess is correct, this should be the dismemberment case that Zhi Ji mentioned earlier.I thought it might be related to Taotie, but judging from the current situation, it seems that it is really just a murder case of a pervert, and the ultimate target of that pervert seems to be the other person I met tonight.
Since it has nothing to do with Taotie, and Jinyi has no intention of staying here for a long time, she is most concerned about the situation of Kinomoto's family.However, there was always a blocking voice in her heart, which told her that if she had to investigate further, something terrible would happen.
But she can't.
Those three people were the only intersection between her and the past, and Taoya helped her a lot, even after knowing the truth of the year, she did not abandon her.
She finally realized that she couldn't face the reality of losing them alone, it was a void that not even Saya could fill.
53. The Second Act of Six
Before I knew it, it was the second half of the night.The city is still bustling and noisy, and there are many dark creatures that are rarely seen in the daytime in the night.
Jinyi originally planned to go to Ichihara Yuko immediately, but this time he went out for a day, and the shading fluid he applied earlier had long since expired, and it would be very troublesome if it was dawn by then.But this time she forgot to bring it when she went out, so she had to go back home temporarily to find it.
It was rare for Saya to not sleep in the house, and probably went to some other place to check for information.Jin Yi didn't care, and went straight to find the last bottle of sunshade liquid from the cabinet and put it in the bag.The remaining amount can only be used once or twice at most, and she feels that it is necessary to ask Saya to ask those vampires for a few more bottles.
Just thinking about this, a sense of weightlessness suddenly hit, as if the body fell into the abyss all at once, and even the breath was taken away for a sudden moment.But before he could react, that feeling suddenly disappeared again, as if it was just a hallucination.
"what happened……"
Pressing the kimono on his chest, he felt his heart beating fast, and beads of sweat poured out from his forehead one after another. This kind of lingering fear was absolutely impossible to be an illusion.
But she is sitting in the room, and she is not a patient suffering from a serious disease, so there is no reason for this to happen.
So, could it be that Saya is in danger?
She was taken aback by this thought, and hurriedly tried to confirm the other party's current position.However, what was unexpected was that she only knew that Saya was in Tokyo, but she had no way to determine where he was.
This was a situation she had never encountered before, and she couldn't make a conclusion for a while, but it was not an option to just stay in the room like this.Jin Yi hesitated for a moment, but finally rushed out.
There is still some time before dawn, and the streets of Karakura Town are empty, only the street lamps exude a warm yellow light.She flew past the roof, and suddenly saw someone standing below looking at her from a distance, and she couldn't help but stop carefully and look back.
The man in the old kimono raised his hand to press the wide-brimmed hat on his head, and greeted her with a smile: "It's been a long time, Miss Xingmoto. You still look very energetic~"
Jin Yi twitched the corners of his mouth, stepped forward and squatted on the eaves, looked down at the man and asked, "Hey, Urahara, have you seen Saya today?"
Kisuke Urahara squinted his eyes and asked back, "Did something happen?"
"That's not true." Jin Yi smiled slightly and straightened up again, "He was not at home in the middle of the night, so I thought about going out to look for it, since I haven't seen it before."
Urahara waved his fan and laughed twice, as if he believed what she said, and didn't continue to ask.Jin Yi waved at him, and ran away without stopping.
The man didn't leave, but instead stared intently at her receding figure. After a long time, he showed a meaningful smile: "Then, I wish you good luck, little girl."
Jinyi finally arrived at the Dimensional Witch's shop before dawn.But Yuko was still sleeping, so she had to go to the parlor first to wait under the guidance of Duolu and Quanlu.
Strange to say, every time I walk into this store, my anxious mood will calm down no matter how anxious I was before.This store seems to be independent of the whole world, no matter how much the outside has changed, it is still the same for many years.
Once I feel at ease, my head is a little sleepy.Jin Yi lay on the table, watching the white mist curling up from the teacup in front of her eyes, her eyelids began to fight unconsciously.
Duo Lu and Quan Lu enthusiastically drew up the curtains, and not long after, the light from the hall began to brighten.A new day has begun again, and today I think it is a good weather.
Jin Yi curled up in the living room surrounded by darkness, but couldn't be happy at all.After thinking about it carefully, some questions have gradually been answered.
Taoya's disappearance should be within this week, but what happened to make that family disappear?Not to mention Fujitaka, Sakura has such powerful magic power, and there is also an excellent familiar, it is absolutely impossible for her to disappear so quietly.Taking a step back, even if the problem was caused by Sakura, it wouldn't affect the other two.
In this way, the biggest possibility is that the brother and sister discovered something together, so they were rejected by this world?But in this world, can it really exclude people who already exist?Or, did they not exist?
Jin Yi hugged her head with a headache, and couldn't help moaning|groaning, at this moment, a footstep stopped across the table, and she heard a woman's voice asking: "What? Does it hurt anywhere?"
She immediately raised her head and looked at him with wide eyes.The Dimensional Demon dressed in black gracefully sat down at the table, took a sip of the freshly brewed hot tea: "Let's hear your wish."
Jin Yi opened his mouth, but didn't know how to speak for a moment.She bit her lip, calmed down for a few seconds, and then said in a deep voice, "Before that, I want to ask first, the sudden feeling similar to heart palpitations... What does it mean for creatures like us?"
Yuko blinked, then curled the corners of her lips to look at her from beginning to end: "This also varies from person to person. If you want to clarify the specific reason, you still need to ask your contractor."
"What is the greatest possibility?"
"Well, under normal circumstances, it's because of a mutation in him—a sudden increase or decrease in ability, or it may be because he went to another dimension."
"Then...why is it impossible to determine his specific location?"
"He doesn't want you to find him."
"why?"
"Of course there are reasons why you don't want you to find him."
In just one day, so many things happened without warning, which made Jinyi a little unacceptable. Besides, there may be a lot of confusion and confusion.
She didn't understand why Saya didn't let herself find him, and she wasn't sure if Taoya's disappearance had anything to do with him.There are too many mysteries, and all the clues are entangled, and even the ends of the threads are missing.
The room became quiet again, and the sound of the clock came from nowhere, ticking, ticking, clearly telling the passage of time.
"Miss Yuko, I hope... Please help me find Saya." The girl slowly raised her head, the brilliance in her amber eyes flashed, and a touch of black seemed to smudge under the moonlight, silently condensing and dispersing.
"I have a lot of questions I want to ask him, and those answers are important to me."
Ichihara Yuko looked at her clearly, and asked slowly: "Is this your wish?"
"Yes." Jin Yi took a deep breath, and added, "No matter what the result is, what choice will I make in the future, but now, I can't do without finding him."
"I understand."
Yuko lowered her eyelids, an ambiguous smile formed on the corner of her lips.She stretched out her hand, and gently slid her palm across the table. When she moved away, a pair of golden bells appeared in the center of the table.
"Take this with you."
Jin Yi looked at Yuko in confusion, seeing that she didn't seem to intend to explain, so she got up first and brought the bell in front of her.However, just when the fingertips touched the chain woven with three-color rope, the pair of bells made a crisp sound of "Dang".
The girl's eyes widened immediately, and she looked at Yuko again, who was still sitting at the table with a smile on her face, took a sip of tea and said slowly: "You should know how to use it, right? If it's the price...just take that. "
As soon as she finished speaking, Jin Yi saw the things that she had been hiding in her pockets slowly floating up.Surrounded by soft light, the white feather looked pure and spotless in the dark. After it rose to the top of the table, it shook a little, and finally landed in front of Yuko.
Jin Yi thought for a while, but still felt that he should remind: "That feather is not mine."
"Of course I know." Yuko held her chin and smiled, and called Duolu to put away the things, "It's just in your hands."
Since the other party has said so, she has no objection.After hanging the bell on his wrist, Jin Yi borrowed a room to apply sunscreen on his body, and left the shop.
The sun is shining outside, the breath of spring is coming, and the streets are full of cherry blossoms.She suddenly remembered that at this time last year, she had gone to the park with Toya and Sakura to enjoy the flowers, but now at this time, she had to find the answer to the question alone.
Who is she?Why is she here?
The bell on the wrist rang crisply from time to time. Although he couldn't see it, the aura surrounding his body did gradually change.Jinyi stopped at a crossroads, and was concentrating on deciding which direction to go, when she heard someone call her name.
Following the prestige, I saw a brown-haired man struggling to move away from the crowd, met her gaze, and immediately laughed happily: "It's great that I didn't admit my mistake, why are you here alone, 衿衣ちゃん?"
"Gang?" Jin Yi blinked in surprise, "You're the one, what's the matter in Ikebukuro?"
"Kyoko is taking the child for an examination at the hospital, and my elder brother asked me to come and pick her up." Tsunayoshi Sawada touched his head, walked over and bent down to look at her and said, "The sun is so bright today, so it doesn't matter if you come to a place with so many people ?”
Jin Yi quickly laughed twice, waved his hands and said, "It's okay, hasn't it always been like this before? I'm very strong!"
Sawada shook his head and rubbed her hair helplessly: "However, it's impossible not to cherish yourself more."
It was obviously a very common sentence, but it made her nose ache suddenly.The girl hurriedly stopped talking, rubbed her nose vigorously with the back of her hand, and said in a muffled voice: "Okay, I will pay attention to it in the future. It's really long-winded!"
Sawada laughed twice, and wisely did not continue this topic: "Where is Jin Yi ちゃん going now?"
"Nothing special..." Jin Yi raised his head and looked at the young man in front of him, his face was soft and beautiful under the sun, his brown eyes were like some kind of unique jade, warm and penetrating.
She couldn't help thinking of Taoya, she was a little scared, afraid that this person would disappear suddenly like Taoya?
As soon as her head got hot, she didn't even think about what she was going to say, and she blurted out: "Why don't we go to the hospital with you."
Sawada was taken aback for a moment, but unexpectedly did not object, then nodded and said: "Alright, let's go together."
After the two arrived at the hospital, Sawada made a phone call first and learned that Kyoko's side was not over yet, so he and Jinyi temporarily stayed in the garden downstairs and waited.
The closer to noon, the hotter the weather.Fortunately, there is a shade tree where the sun is not so intense.
Sawada saw that it was still early, so he ran to a nearby vending machine to buy drinks.Jin Yi nestled listlessly in the shadows, paying attention to the movement of the bell from time to time.
At this moment, there was a commotion at the gate, and a commercial vehicle was slowly approaching the side of the road. After the door opened, six people stepped out of it, among them a tall man in a suit and carrying a bag of unknown purpose. The instrument is full of posture.
She was far away from them, but the black-haired girl in kimono turned her head and looked over as if she had noticed her gaze. Her calm black eyes were like the dark bottom of the sea, which instantly shocked her.
The girl turned out to be a psychic.
Jin Yi frowned, subconsciously looking at the hospital building.
The hospital has always been one of the places where spirits and grievances are most concentrated, and it is not surprising that those spiritual masters will appear here.It's just that Kyoko is still inside, should she talk to Sawada or go up and have a look?
She stood up and looked in the direction the young man left just now.The figure of the other party has not yet appeared. If the phone calls and it seems that the matter is serious, it may make him
