  Chapter 10 because of fear of loneliness and desire for companions

"Boom--!"

The bomb exploded in the room, bursting with a faint orange red fire, and at the same time it caused a burst of black smoke to surge, and the exploding wind poured out like an escape from the unobstructed window.

The rumbling sound even spread out from the depths of this abandoned city, causing some unhealthy people in the periphery to make a sound of uncertainty.

Deep in the city, in front of a double-storey building.

The two ceremony stood there blankly, watching Lucia's movement from pulling out the bomb to throwing the bomb to detonating the bomb, falling into speechlessness.

It hasn't been confirmed whether Bai Chun Rio is the real body of Human Demon killed continuously, so he is directly bombed? Don’t you worry about killing the wrong person?   But think about it carefully. Three days ago, when the two met for the first time in a residential area in the north, he seemed to have bombed himself immediately at the time.

"It's just to be strong first. It's nothing weird."

Lucia retreated to the two ceremony's side, and even stepped back a few steps further, hiding in the two ceremony's. Behind him, "I only throw bombs. Close combat is really bad, so I will leave it to you."

After Lucia hid behind the two ceremony, the two ceremony immediately became incomparable. It became conspicuous.

At least, in order to evade the bomb, he rushed out of the detonated room and appeared to be a little covered in dirt. His eyes were immediately attracted by the two ceremony.

"Liangyi? Is it you?"

The two ceremony glanced at the direction behind them speechlessly, and saw Lucia once again put her hand in her carry-on package. The deputy was ready to take out a new bomb at any time, and for the first time the idea of'this guy can do nothing, he is still a little child'.

Since we met several times, Lucia has responded calmly and acted decisively. When the threat is ruthless, and the murder without the slightest hesitation style, it is really difficult for people to think of him as real. Children come to treat.

His decisiveness and simplicity are better than many experienced adult killers.

This is as it should be by rights.

Lucia, who has no emotions, never knows what the preciousness of life is. As long as the idea of ​​killing you arises, there will never be the slightest hold on, no matter what kind of difficulties you have, What a tragic experience, I can't kill it.

Because of any happiness or misfortune, he cannot resonate with him.

Lucia stayed behind the two ceremony silently.

While watching the movements of the young boy named Baichun Rio on the other side, he looked at the backs of the two ceremony without a trace, observing the difference between her and that night.

Saying that you are not good at close combat is of course nonsense.

Lucia, who possesses [Unregistered Spiritual Foundation] and has become a follower, although its physical fitness is undoubtedly the bottom in the follower world, it has already reached the limit, strength and speed of the human body. There are three times as many ordinary people.

Maybe he doesn’t know how to move or martial arts, but he has a strong physical fitness enough to deal with the opponent, plus he can forecast Future’s [Future Vision], even if it’s hand-to-hand combat, he has killed Bai Chun Risuo's self-confidence.

Judging from the speed at which he had just escaped the bomb and rushed out of the explosion, he was not much worse than Lucia. Like the two ceremony, he was also a guy far beyond ordinary people.

The reason for doing this is just to get the two ceremony in front. He can take the opportunity to sneak attack and reduce the risk that's all.

Not to mention Lucia's inner thoughts, the two ceremony standing in front of him are already facing Bai Chun Lixu.

Bai Chunlixu is a teenager who is about the same age as the two ceremony. He has dark brown short hair that covers his ears. He wears a combination of white shirt and black trousers. It is the school uniform of Guanbuzi Academy.

According to the two ceremony, Bai Chunli Xu is a senior at CUHK. She is 17 years old in her second year of high school this year.

The reason for dressing up like school uniforms should be that I rushed here immediately after school. I didn’t prepare spare clothes, but it was precisely because of this that I was able to drop out of school and leave home. Many of the students are mixed with poorly dressed school uniforms.

"Hey, Bai Chunli Xu, in just two months, he committed five consecutive murders in the city, and then turned to the "continuous killing of Human Demon" that blamed me for you. Is it?"

Even though they knew that the opponent was their admirer, the two ceremony had no plans to greet each other, and questioned each other as soon as they spoke.

"Did you know?!"

Bai Chun Lixu was obviously a little completely unprepared, and a deep shock appeared on his face.

Although it is said to be the legendary "Killing Human Demon in a row", in the final analysis, this guy is only halfway through. The handling of corpses is always too high-key, and he does not understand that the killer should be low-key under any circumstances. Hiding the essence of oneself, the psychological quality is completely inferior to Lucia, who is a professional killer, but she was caught off guard by a question of two ceremony and found out the truth.

He is indeed the one who killed Human Demon serially, killed Lucia's parents, and blamed the two ceremony in recent urban legends, it is indeed him.

However, he doesn't seem to have any intention of concealing his identity in front of the two ceremony.

He didn’t know what he was thinking of, the shocked expression faded from his face, and the eyes of the two ceremony suddenly showed an inexplicable fanatical expression, as if the believer had seen the god he believed in. It seems that Robinson, who has lived alone on an isolated island for more than ten years, saw his companion.

"But, it's all good. Now that you know it, come with me!"

While saying this, Bai Chun Lixu Being caught in a clear madness, there was a strong excitement in his eyes. It was obviously a human, but it gave people a wild beast-like illusion.

"I know, you, like me, have been suppressing the urge to kill in your heart, right? In this case, we are natural companions. I have been alone for too long. !"

"Liangyi, you are my best companion, I want you..."

This man, half of his brain is crazy.

His mental state is very weird, although he could see obvious rationality on his face when he just rushed out of the building, but now his identity has been revealed, and after seeing the two ceremony , He seemed to have turned on some strange switch, his face obviously became mad, and his spirit became confused.

Because until now is a person alone suppressing the urge to kill in his heart-probably suppressed, the reason why it is said to be approximate, because he committed five in just two months In the case of two ceremony that he believed to be of the same kind, but none of them killed - so when he saw two ceremony that he believed to have the same murder impulse, he couldn't help becoming fanatical.

Humans are creatures that cannot stand loneliness.

Especially when this person is in pain for a long time, he will become especially eager for the same kind.

So Bai Chunlixu stared at the two ceremony.

Under the scorching loneliness, he became extremely eager for two ceremony.

The reason why he blamed the two ceremony for the crime after committing that many cases is probably to use this to attract the attention of the two ceremony, or he intends to use this to draw the two ceremony into the dark in the world.

"It's just a longing for the same kind that's all, it's boring."

Lucia perceives Bai Chun Lixu's heart with keen insight.

Because of fear of loneliness, I long for companions, but it is a third-rate relationship, which is completely unable to make him interested.

He didn't show any sympathy or pity to Bai Chunlixu's lonely and longing heart. He who doesn't understand feelings doesn't even understand what'loneliness' is, and of course he can't resonate with his heart.

Compared to this, he is more concerned about another thing.

That's Bai Chun Risuo's murder impulse-when did it happen?

This is a huge doubt that is easily overlooked in this incident.

Judging from the consecutive killings of Human Demon in the past two months, from the first to the fourth and fifth cases, Bai Chun Lixu’s killing methods are constantly improving, and at the same time, from The relatively completeness of the first corpse to the sloppy fall of the fourth and fifth corpses can also show that his spirit has fallen rapidly in these two months.

This is not only a degenerate journey from reason to madness, but also a technological change from unfamiliar to proficient.

This is his conclusion from the information given by Daisuke Akumi, and it will not be false.

According to this inference, it can be judged that Bai Chunlixu's urge to kill should not exceed three months at most.

Lucia is 80% sure of the correctness of this conclusion.

So, here comes the problem.

Why did he suddenly awaken his urge to kill three months ago?   (End of this chapter)
