Persona: Devil Summoner

The third one is persona! As we all know, it takes time for temperature to conduct. After making all the preparations, the key to victory is the speed of crossing the sea of ​​fire!

As he rushed into the enemy's firestorm, the persona Hou Yi held in Jiang Tianwei's arms immediately turned into the powerful Xiang Yu!

Persona is the embodiment of spirit, so using it for too long or consuming too much energy at a time will cause great mental fatigue. But on the other hand, if the user's spirit has grown tremendously, he can barely hold on and not faint... Even if he just used such a powerful Hou Yi bow, he can barely use it again now!

In the flames, Xiang Yu grabbed Jiang Tianwei's body in mid-air with all his strength. The metal man threw the curled up summoner towards the finish line like a pitch! Traditional Peking Opera praised him: His strength is as great as that of a mountain and his spirit is as great as that of the world! What a great King of Western Chu! What a majestic and powerful man he was!

Moreover, Jiang Tianwei's method of letting persona throw the user out with all its strength is truly unheard of.

In this way, Jiang Tianwei turned himself into a ball and was thrown out by Xiang Yu. At this time, the Hell Angel was still climbing the fire storm... The ability of the motorcycle to run on any material actually harmed him, making it impossible for him to pass through the fire barrier...

The result was Jiang Tianwei's complete victory.

"Kekekeke... I never thought that I would lose because of my own proud ability..."

After landing on the ground, the Hell's Angel, who had figured out the details of Jiang Tianwei's victory, laughed a few times, as if he had let go of a knot in his heart, sighed deeply, and got off the motorcycle.

Even though there are no pedals, the motorcycle still stands on the ground.

"I admit defeat. I lost. Now, I'll leave my role as 'partner' to you."

The Hell's Angel pointed at the motorcycle and motioned for him to sit on it and try it out.

Jiang Tianwei tried to sit on it. The handsome Harley motorcycle was the proof of his manliness that he had always dreamed of.

"I am a devil, an angel from hell. I can travel freely in heaven and on earth. Just go and gallop with my partner."

After the devil Hell Angel left the motorcycle, his body gradually became transparent. He raced happily, and then admitted defeat happily. He came and left in a dashing manner. It is also a good story.

This wind-like motorcyclist just turned into the wind.

Chapter 142 Cinderella Waking Up from a Dream

With the disappearance of the demon Hell Angel, this wonderful racetrack also disappeared. The surrounding scenery flickered strangely, and the colors changed rapidly. Soon everything returned to its previous state: the dark sea cave, the spreading white mist, the calm water, and... Yoshizawa Sumire, who was lying on the ground and had not yet woken up.

Jiang Tianwei got on the motorcycle, and Fang Zexia sat on the back seat holding her sister.

Fortunately, the motorcycle was big enough, Fang Zexia held Jiang Tianwei's waist with one hand and held her unconscious sister with the other. Jiang Tianwei had no time to savor the treatment of this beautiful woman and the car, as his spirit had been pushed to the limit...

First, he was consumed by the Hou Yi mode of persona, and then he switched to Xiang Yu and threw himself out. Now his mental state has reached the limit, even with the mental patience of the great monk, his eyelids are black.

He turned the handlebars. Although he didn't have a motorcycle license, it was much easier to drive than a car. The wheels blazed brightly, illuminating the dark cave.

The flaming motorcycle rushed towards the white fog. The flaming wheels touched the water surface, but miraculously it did not sink. Instead, the high-temperature fire continued to melt the water it touched. Wisps of white mist rolled up from under the wheels, but were left behind.

Unexpectedly, despite being in such a fast sprint state, Jiang Tianwei did not feel any strong wind pressure, as if the motorcycle itself had the function of reducing wind pressure.

Soon, the wheels crossed the water and drove onto the ice field. Thick white fog enveloped everyone. But before they could feel the cold, the car had already rushed to the center of the ice fog...

What the devil Hell Angel said was true. He said that his ability could help Jiang Tianwei escape from danger. Sure enough, in the center of the ice fog, a naked girl was sitting on a stone. She had long green hair, fish scales on her body, and a fish tail in the lower body.

Anyone can see at a glance that this is the mermaid in the fairy tale.

The legend is not quite the same as the fairy tale. In the original version, the mermaid did not fall in love with the prince, nor did the mermaid give up her singing in exchange for legs. The earliest legend about mermaids was that they were demons that would lure ships into danger.

The mermaid in front of everyone was sobbing softly while emitting cold white mist from the stone she was sitting on. Her sad and mournful appearance was indeed somewhat similar to the uncle who was crying and waving a kitchen knife.

But it is still hard to accept that a creepy middle-aged man could have separated from a cute girl.

Because of the flaming motorcycle, the icy breath had not yet frozen Jiang Tianwei, but had already broken through to the center.

Jiang Tianwei imitated the Hell's Angels and pressed the brakes on the front wheels. Sure enough, the rear wheels began to drift, and the whole car quickly turned around. The flames on the wheels spread rapidly, turning into a fire storm that soared into the sky, wrapping the mermaid inside.

In a moment, the sound of the tide in the cave subsided, and the dark cave quickly turned into mist and dissipated. Jiang Tianwei breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that he was safe now.

Jiang Tianwei felt that his spirit had reached its limit. It was so dark in front of his eyes that he could hardly distinguish colors. His mind was unstable, so he naturally could not maintain the flame locomotive.

He panted and confirmed Yoshizawa Sumire's position.

Fang Zejin lay quietly on the side. Jiang Tianwei tried hard to walk to her side. It was only a few steps away, but he felt his feet were soft and the ground was hard to step on. He felt cold all over. He didn't know if it was a psychological effect...

poof...

Jiang Tianwei missed a step and fell to the ground. When his bare arms touched the ground, he felt a chill!

(Isn’t this psychological?!).

This coldness, which was almost painful, made Jiang Tianwei react immediately! He tried to open his eyes, and in the haze, he vaguely saw the surrounding scenery...

One after another, khaki corrugated cardboard boxes were neatly stacked in the corner, each with the logo of Okumura Food printed on it. The cold light on the ceiling illuminated this small square room. Tiny icicles could be seen everywhere on the floor, walls, ceiling, and the outer edges of the cardboard boxes.

Jiang Tianwei couldn't help but breathe deeply because of the pain, and what came out of his mouth and nose was a burst of white smoke... It can be seen that the temperature here is very low...

"! Damn, is this a freezer?!"

Jiang Tianwei reacted immediately.

It's easy to imagine why these fast food restaurants cook so quickly. It's because they use semi-finished products. No one really thinks that the hamburgers and fried chickens made by fast food restaurants are made from raw meat, starting with marinating, right? They all have a general distributor, and they place orders one box at a time from the general distributor. Before the store opens, bread, chicken fillets, French fries, chicken nuggets... are delivered. Then when a customer wants them, they just take these semi-finished products and fry them.

This kind of large fast food restaurant has large freezers specifically used to store these semi-finished products.

It seems that the previous movement of position in the cognitive space caused Jiang Tianwei to be in a different position when he left the cognitive space...

But who would have thought that it would appear in the cold storage? !

Jiang Tianwei had a knife wound on his leg and had lost a lot of blood. His body was weak at the time, and the cold storage kept taking away his body temperature...

Jiang Tianwei looked around, trying to find the entrance to the cold storage, but his eyes were blurry and he couldn't make out anything. He only felt that everything around him was white...

"I'm not going to freeze to death..."

Jiang Tianwei muttered this as he tried to pull Fang Zejin's body up and held her in his arms.

It is said that victims in the snowy mountains would conserve their body temperature by cuddling together like this...

"From now on... we can only rely on our luck..."

Jiang Tianwei’s eyes became darker and darker, and finally his head tilted and he knew nothing.

----------------

Yoshizawa Sumire felt like she had a very long dream.

The protagonists in the dream are myself and my sister.

Like almost all sister stories, the two sisters had a very good relationship when they were young. Not only were they very similar in every aspect, but they also had very similar dreams.

While challenging her dream of becoming a world champion, she gradually felt that she was not up to the task. Although the gimmicks of the beautiful sisters were similar, everyone only cared about Kasumi Yoshizawa. Everyone was rushing to report on the talented girl Kasumi Yoshizawa and her sister.

Then, one day, on the streets of Shibuya, at a crossroads, I, who had always been treated as an appendage of Kasumi Yoshizawa, could no longer suppress my emotions, and for the first time I said something willful to my sister, and ran forward regardless of everything... Then, when the car braked suddenly, the glaring lights, I was pushed away... and... Kasumi Yoshizawa fell in a pool of blood...

Then, because she was so sad, a magical magician came and used his magic to turn Yoshizawa Sumire into Yoshizawa Kasumi.

But, just like the story of Cinderella, Cinderella will always be Cinderella. She puts on a coat named Fang Zexia and dreams that she is Fang Zexia. Only then will she realize that she is still that Cinderella.

But...it's all a dream.

If I were to ask why…Fang Ze Xia was clearly still alive! My sister was still alive! I clearly saw her before I went to sleep!

My sister is still alive, and everything that happened before was just a nightmare.

As long as I wake up, what awaits me is definitely the same daily life as usual, a little hard but happy training, and the rosy high school life just like in the story.

Yoshizawa Sumire's consciousness gradually regained. The first thing she saw through her hazy eyes was an unfamiliar ceiling and a faint smell of disinfectant.

She tried to sit up and suddenly felt a pain on the back of her hand. Upon closer inspection, she found that there was a needle inserted into the back of her hand, and a long transparent tube was connected to the bag of medicine hanging beside the bed.

"Am I...am I in the hospital?".

Yoshizawa Sumire was still a little confused. The teacher who had been watching over her said in delight, "Yoshizawa! Are you awake?! Are you feeling unwell?"

"I'm fine...Mr. Maruki..."

"It's okay."

"Um, Mr. Maruki...where is my sister?"

Yoshizawa Sumire asked softly. It was just ordinary curiosity, but it made Maruki Takuto's heart tremble involuntarily and he took a deep breath.

She, she woke up from her own mental suggestion? !

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 143

When it comes to keywords like hypnosis and mental suggestion, if the first reaction in your mind is that the recipients are all women, and after receiving the treatment they often become obedient puppets, then as a professional psychological counselor, Maruki Takuto can only suggest that you watch fewer short films that only feature two or three people in the future.

Whether it is hypnosis or mental suggestion, they are both very common treatment methods in psychotherapy.

Although it may sound a bit self-boasting, Maruki Takuto is very confident in the strength of his psychological suggestion. Before, when Jiang Tianwei confronted him, although he was wishing Jiang Tianwei success on the surface, deep down he didn't believe that he could succeed.

This conversation is like: A says, "I want to buy a lottery ticket and win 10 billion!" B says, "Okay, come on. You can do it." Although the latter used an affirmative tone, deep down he did not believe that A could win the lottery. This is what people often call saying one thing and thinking another.

Seeing Yoshizawa Sumire clearly say the word "sister", Maruki-sensei understood that her consciousness had returned...

(You are quite good at this, Mr. Jiang.).

At this time, Maruki Taku paid attention to Jiang Tianwei for the first time... He looked like an outsider, but he was able to destroy the spiritual hint he had given to Fang Zexia...

(Looking at Fangze’s situation, she still thinks her sister is alive... What kind of new treatment is this? Admittedly, Fangze Xia’s problem is because her sister died, but in order to treat her psychological trauma, you made up a lie that her sister is not dead. What will happen in the future? Wouldn’t that be easily exposed? What on earth are you thinking, Jiang...)

Maruki Takuto kept blaming Jiang Tianwei in his heart, but he said, "Teacher, I'm not sure about this. After all, only you and Jiang were sent to the hospital."

"Jiang? Ah! Is Senior Jiang here too? Is he okay?"

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay. You two were found unconscious in the freezer of the Great Universe Burger. Jiang has a trauma on his leg - ah, don't worry, it's very minor. There's no danger to his life."

Hearing that there was no danger to her life, Yoshizawa Sumire breathed a sigh of relief, but then she noticed a core problem...

"Why is Maruki-sensei here?"

This question goes straight to the core.

After all, no matter how you think about it, Maruki Takuto is just a hired teacher, not even a formal employee of Shujin Academy. Visiting students should be the responsibility of the school leaders.

As the saying goes, nothing happens without a reason. There must be a reason why Mr. Maruki was sent here...

The principal of Xiujin College was really troubled today. He had specially linked up with the Big Universe Burger in order to promote the school and create some positive news for the school to dilute the impact of the negative news. Unexpectedly, a madman came over with a kitchen knife and hacked around in a social practice that was originally a good thing? This is absolutely negative news!

Moreover, Japan is a country of entertainment, and the media loves gossip the most. No matter if it is related or not, it is the right thing to link the two things together. Some self-media have even started to link this incident with the previous Phantom Thief incident, Kamoshida's change of heart and his disability... It caused an uproar on the Internet.

There are quite a lot of rumors in the barrage of comments in the format of “I heard…”, “The UP next door said…”, “I have experienced it personally…” No matter whether it is true or not, no one cares anyway. They just want to be entertained.

The school is currently holding meetings with the public relations team to devise strategies to mitigate the negative impact, so the responsibility of visiting the students falls to Mr. Maruki.

and……

It is obvious that the police will intervene in the investigation after such a big incident. The man with the kitchen knife was detained by the police, but as the victims of the attack, their statements are also required. Even if it is just a formality, the two people's statements should be kept.

Maruki-sensei was not supposed to come. But Sumire Yoshizawa has always had mental problems, so as a special case, he came before the police to confirm whether Sumire Yoshizawa's mental state was suitable for the police to collect evidence. After all, if an ordinary student was suddenly chased and hacked by a madman with a kitchen knife, he would definitely be frightened.

Judging from Fangze's appearance, he should be able to accept the investigation.

(The point is the other side...)

When Maruki Takuto thought of this, he looked at the curtain next to Fang Zexia with a serious expression. Lying inside was Jiang Tianwei.

Logically, male and female patients should be separated, but from the perspective of police evidence collection and the school's desire not to make it public, the two were put into the same "ward."

This is not a regular ward, but a temporary rest room for nurses, so this is the only compromise we can make.

Jiang Tianwei had completely exhausted his energy this time, so naturally he had to spend more time to recover than usual. For example, if a person stayed up late for three or four days in a row, then his next sleep would often be longer than a normal sleep, and much longer.

Since Jiang Tianwei has not woken up, the police can only question Fang Zejin first.

However, even if you ask questions, you basically can't get the point.

After all, from Yoshizawa Sumire's perspective, her fate with this kitchen knife man was just meeting him once at the station and being entangled with him for a long time. This was a pure stranger.

In fact, the police department also speculated this way, so the main force was interrogating the knife man. What else could the victim's confession say? Just send some marginal people to ask. Every unit is like this, pushing the troublesome and unprofitable work to the newcomers.

Therefore, the female police officer in charge of taking the statement asked a few questions casually and did not delve into the matter further. She continued to play with her mobile phone in the corridor, waiting for Jiang Tianwei to wake up.

Yoshizawa Sumire sat on the bed, feeling that her mind was not very clear. Things in the past were vague and her memories of many things were ambiguous... The most critical question, of course, was where was her sister?

Since my sister’s accident was a nightmare, why is there no record of my studying and living with my sister in school in my memory?

Moreover, sometimes, I would instinctively think of myself as the older sister... This is so strange. Although the two sisters have a very good relationship and are inseparable, they are not really to the point of confusing each other. The twins can still distinguish themselves from each other.

(Well, forget it. Since my sister isn’t staying in the ward, at least she wasn’t affected by this incident. I’ll probably be able to see it when I get home.)

Yoshizawa Sumire thought so and lay down on the bed again. Looking at the watch, it was time for lunch, and in a little while, it would be time to go to class again. When she thought that others were in class while she could stay in the lounge and be lazy, she couldn't help but feel a little bit of amoral excitement.
