Knight Asylum

Speaking of...

Due to heavy rain, his father was taken away, and he lived in heavy rain for the rest of his life.

Because of the Grand Prix of Desire, his mother was taken away, and he lived the rest of his life only for the Grand Prix of Desire.

The corner of Ukiyo Hidetoshi's mouth twitched.

Is fate so anxious to let him put an end to his two thousand years of reincarnation?

Chapter 874: No Matter What, Negative Numbers Must Be Converted to Zero First

Is he awakening, or... is he once again being influenced by others to make a decision.

Perhaps the latter still accounts for a certain proportion, but Shimamoto Nagi gave the answer of resistance.

Shimamoto Nagi didn't want to be eliminated in such an unclear manner.

"Very good. Fear mostly comes from the unknown. Understanding fear is the best way to overcome it."

Seeing Shimamoto Nagi's reaction, Red also took out the information about Isaka Shinkoro.

"This man is the real Rainy Night Devil. Ah... that's not a demon, but a Weather Dopant."

"He was once a member of the museum's research team on Gaia Memory. He was good at improving Gaia Memory, and he was more obsessed with studying Gaia Memory's product, Dopant, than Gaia Memory itself. The Quetzalcoatlus Gaia Memory was one of the projects he was in charge of. However, as this research was terminated, he gradually disappeared."

"Before the museum was destroyed, he had completely disappeared. Some said he was killed by the guards of Sonozaki Ryu, the ruler of the Sonozaki family. Others said he was still in the museum."

"After the destruction of the museum and the death of Sonosaki Ryu's guards... Isaka Mikuro began to move again and was photographed acting together with Sonosaki Saeko."

"Although there is no direct evidence, Isaka Shinkoro is suspected of multiple murders."

The middle-aged police officer turned around and looked at Hanaie Daiga and Simon Nicole, then raised his hand and tapped on the whiteboard displaying all the information about Isaka Shinkoro.

"This is all the information we have about Isaka Shinkuro at the moment."

The eldest of the Hua family crossed his arms over his chest, still with a sour face as always, even... even more sour than before.

Because he and Simone were now sitting in the interrogation room of the newly formed Mechanical Lifeform Crime Special Operations Team.

"So?! Why don't you go find that Isaka Shinkuro?! We are the victims! We...we were even tied up!"

I could still tolerate Hua Jiada, but Simon Nicole exploded. She simply stood up, raised her hand and slammed the table in protest.

"Let us go quickly! How many patients do you think are waiting for us to treat?"

After saying that, Simonicole pulled Hua Jiada and wanted to walk towards the exit of the interrogation room, but Hua Jiada had no intention of cooperating and just sat firmly on the chair.

"What are you doing, you big brother?" Sima Nico stamped her feet anxiously.

"If you break out, you won't be innocent anymore," Hua Jiada rolled his eyes and glanced at the middle-aged police officer, "Officer Tomo Eisuke, right? I'm not wrong, am I?"

Tomo Eisuke was a little embarrassed. "We are the police and we won't do that kind of thing. The reason we invited you here is that we hope you can cooperate with the investigation."

"Ha! Who would believe that?"

Simoniko sat down with a thud, raised her foot and slammed it heavily on the table, her attitude was extremely arrogant.

"You thought we were blind, you raised your gun as soon as you came in! Who do you want to kill?!"

"…Because we received intelligence that the wanted criminal Ukiyo Hidetoshi had sneaked into your hospital, we were allowed to use firearms for safety reasons. In fact…you were indeed kidnapped," Tomo Eisuke hesitated, "Isn't that right?"

"..."

Simoniko slowly put her legs down, her eyes flickered for a moment but she still remained stubborn.

"I, I could have fought back! If you hadn't disrupted my operations..."

"This... I'm very sorry," Bo Yingjie naturally saw that Ximaniko was being stubborn. He thought about Ximaniko's previous reaction and after repeated consideration, he decided to give Ximaniko a way out.

"Hmph, hum!"

"So! What do you want us to cooperate with? If it refers to the whereabouts of Isaka Shinkoro, I'm sorry, but if I wanted to know where Isaka Shinkoro was, I wouldn't be sitting here now," said Hua Jiada with his arms folded across his chest.

"Besides, you are a special operations team targeting crimes committed by machine life forms, right? This is a crime committed by Gaia Memory anyway."

"Regarding this matter... Actually, there has been a case before where a machine lifeform stole Gaia's memory, and -"

Tomo Yingjie looked up at the surveillance camera, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke slowly.

"According to the information we have, there may have been a mechanical life form that copied Isaka Shinkuro, and the target of this mechanical life form is most likely Shimamoto Nagi."

After hearing Tomo Eisuke's explanation of the Hua family, I felt a little relieved, but only a little.

As I said, it’s such a coincidence.

However, judging from the current situation, it was most likely Isaka Shinkoro who caused the heavy rain.

Moreover, although mechanical life forms can copy humans like alien insects, they will not become the objects of copying. After all, Shimamoto Nagi is just a sacrifice prepared by Isaka Shinkoro to fulfill some unspeakable secret. The mechanical life form that has copied Isaka Shinkoro is likely to skip Shimamoto Nagi and go directly to the final goal.

But no matter what, he is now under surveillance by the police and cannot move freely.

Hua Jiada I let out a sigh of relief.

I can only watch Reid's.

……

"This is the specific situation. Nagi, do you have anything else you want to ask?" Red pushed his eyes to his forehead.

Shimamoto Nagi subconsciously raised her head back, frowned, hesitated for a long time, and then cautiously asked, "Can you beat him?"

"…To be honest, I'm still wondering if he's just given up," Red complained.

Although it is not known how far Isaka Shinkuro has studied Gaia Memory, the power of Gaia Memory that can be exerted by the human body is limited. According to Philip's description, the Weather Gaia Memory itself is of silver quality and not very strong.

Even if Isaka Shinkuro develops the weather to a level that rivals the Golden Gaia Memory, he still has the ability to restrain himself. As the king of Gaia Memory, the Eternal Gaia Memory has the ability to forcibly terminate other Gaia memories.

Nagi Shimamoto got the answer from Reid's response. She stared at the information about Isaka Shinkoro on the blackboard for a while and then gave a bitter smile.

"Is this...the truth?"

When the mysterious veil was lifted and the devil's true face was revealed, Shimamoto Nagi felt more emptiness than bitterness.

"Are you wondering what your life is all about?" Ukiyo Hidetoshi sighed, "I can only give you one answer."

“Suffering is suffering. It has no meaning and there is nothing to learn from it, especially the suffering inflicted on you by others. You should skip it as quickly as possible.”

“Only in this way can your life go from negative to zero.”

Some people have been in the negative range for two thousand years and still haven't found the answer.

"This...I understand."

The more introverted a person is, the more sensitive they are to other people's emotional changes, so Shimamoto Nagi immediately realized that Ukiyo Hidetoshi was not preaching to her, but talking about his own affairs.

"So? What do I do now?"

Chapter 875: It's not luck, it's not strength, it's not courage, it's the heart

Shimamoto Nagi's rhetorical question made Red and Ukiyo Hidetoshi hesitate.

Gaming disorder is very special. Even if the patient's mental state is in the right place, resection surgery is still required.

As Gamedus is the culmination of Danrito's work, there is no possibility of self-healing. What's more, the Gamedus virus has been combined with the information in the memory of Gaia, the god of wind.

Even if Shimamoto Nagi's mental state is now suitable for resection surgery, the two of them would not dare to perform the operation casually.

The first thing is to remove the virus as soon as possible to avoid any unexpected problems.

Rain will cause Shimamoto Nagi's mental state to be unstable. Even if Shimamoto Nagi looks like she has overcome it now, her body has been trained into the shape of rain. Sometimes willpower can overcome the body, but the body will definitely affect the will, which is an uncertain factor.

But fortunately, rain is a physical phenomenon. Now that Red knows that it is going to rain, it is impossible for dark clouds to appear within his field of vision.

At present, there are three uncertainties.

Isaka Mikurou, the Grand Prix of Desire, and the special operations team against crimes committed by machine life forms.

Reid and Ukiyo Hidetoshi exchanged glances and reached a conclusion.

"Anyway, let's just assume that the matter has been resolved and think about how to live the rest of our lives."

Red stood up and threw his coat over his shoulders.

"Then I'll be leaving first. I'll leave this place to you, Yingshou."

"I understand. Let's go, Nagi-chan," Ukiyo Hidetoshi smiled calmly.

"Eh? Eh hey hey!"

Red and Ukiyo Hidetoshi's extremely outrageous jumping thoughts caught Shimamoto Nagi off guard, but Red and Ukiyo Hidetoshi did not give her any chance to digest it. Red said he would leave and he left, while Ukiyo Hidetoshi had already taken out his cell phone and started checking where was more fun in [S·L].

This is definitely... setting a flag!

Shimamoto Nagi was in a daze when she was brought to the clothing store by Ukiyo Hidetoshi.

"I want that one, and that one, and - help me get this one, too."

Seeing Ukiyo Hidetoshi picking out women's clothing one by one, Shimamoto Nagi couldn't understand this development. She subconsciously shrank her neck and reached out to stop Ukiyo Hidetoshi.

"Well...we haven't known each other for more than an hour."

"Hmm? It's okay. I think these clothes suit you well."

Damn it, it’s the Sheniu!

Ukiyo Hidetoshi's brilliant smile made the introverted Shimamoto Nagi's body stiffen as if she had met her natural enemy. She couldn't even utter a word of resistance. She took the set of clothes handed to her by Ukiyo Hidetoshi with stiff movements and walked into the locker room swayingly.

Looking at herself in the mirror, who looked a little messy, Shimamoto Nagi lowered her head even more.

Her mother died sooner or later, her father was killed, and the shadow of the rainy night made her become an introverted freak who dared not reveal her inner feelings to others. Under such circumstances, her life was not good, and she would never consider entering such a store in the past.

Just as Shimamoto Nagi was fiddling with the clothes in her hands worriedly, the price came out and it was unexpectedly very cheap.

Shimamoto Nagi hesitated for a moment and then looked through the items again. The whole set of clothes... was not so expensive that she could not afford it. This price seemed just right as a beginning to say goodbye to her tragic past.

Apparently Ukiyo Hidetoshi took her spending power into consideration when choosing her clothes.

After hesitating for about ten minutes, Shimamoto Nagi walked out of the locker room cautiously. The new clothes made her look a lot more energetic, but her evasive eyes made people feel as if she had stolen something that didn't belong to her.

"It suits you very well. Let's go. We need to get a haircut next. Do you want to try short hair? There is a barber shop called Nishio that specializes in short haircuts. I heard it is very famous."

Ukiyo Hidetoshi gestured at the position of his ear.

"Whatever beautiful girl with long hair is, she's cut it this short."

Shimamoto Nagi imagined what she would look like with her hair cut short, and immediately covered her ponytail and shook her head vigorously.

"Really? Then just skip the haircut—"

Ukiyo Hidetoshi nodded thoughtfully.

Along the way, Shimamoto Nagi has been trying hard to start a conversation, but this is too difficult for her as she is introverted. Fortunately, Ukiyo Hidetoshi is a super social leader, so there is no need to worry about no one talking.

"Which one do you like better? As for me...I prefer this four-leaf clover."

When Ukiyo Hidetoshi asked her for her opinion while holding two bracelets, Shimamoto Nagi couldn't help but test the waters.

"why?"

"…Who knows, what it is? Do you want to guess?"

Ukiyo Hidetoshi's smile was full of sophistication and leisure, as if everything was under control. His seemingly frivolous eyes concealed a profound maturity, which made Shimamoto Nagi find it even more difficult to see through the man in front of her who was only a few years older than her.

"What Red said is very right. People are weak. When faced with great despair, they will deceive themselves and trap themselves in a narrow world. Even if they know that this will not work, but... who can really do it?"

"But we can't keep going like this, right?"

Shimamoto Nagi was silent for a moment and then hummed softly.

"Then the question is, Nagi-chan, what do you lack in order to escape from that heavy rain?"

Shimamoto Nagi hesitated.

courage?

Perhaps, if she had enough courage, she would not be tortured by every rainy night.

power?

If she was strong enough, none of this would have happened.

luck?

If she was lucky enough, such a thing would not have happened.

"The answer is, the heart."

The heart-shaped bracelet sparkled in the sunlight when pulled off.
