Weird collapse, chasing husband crematorium

"That's impossible." Li Mo, in a calm state, immediately denied it.

Even if it was Mei's point of view, Li Mo would not blindly follow it. This was also the tacit habit and understanding between the two. The truth can stand up to scrutiny, while the truth that is questioned or even pointed out to be completely unreasonable is nothing but a false lie.

Mei did not immediately deny or approve of Li Mo's judgment, but rather gave her own explanation without haste:

"Indeed, based on current human understanding, omniscience and omnipotence are absolutely impossible to appear in this world."

“It’s like the age-old question: Can God create a rock that he can’t lift?”

"If he could, why couldn't he, the omniscient and omnipotent one, lift a stone? If he couldn't, why couldn't he, the omniscient and omnipotent one, create such a stone?"

"But Li Mo, the so-called paradox itself is based on our own logical reasoning, which leads us to a dead end with no way forward."

"In other words, we humans are limited by the narrowness of our own existence and cannot consider this issue from a higher dimension. If the definition of omniscience and omnipotence is completely irrelevant to human cognition, then what if what we know is what we can do, and what if our subjective cognition is objective logic and objective fact?"

"Just like the weird ones, even if they have some of the habits and behaviors of living people, they are still weird in nature. They have no concept of time, and even less rational judgment that only humans have."

"They don't know how to seek benefits and avoid harm, and they don't choose the optimal solution in human cognition."

"For example, when you used the strange phenomena of Mirror Lake to bury the Flesh Ghosts, did you ever wonder why the Flesh Ghosts couldn't avoid the Mirror Lake like humans, but were instead foolishly attracted by the strange coins, falling into the Mirror Lake and becoming silent? Is it simply because they are restricted by the laws?"

"Then aren't we humans also constrained by two laws called 'sensibility' and 'rationality'? In the eyes of the weird, how are we different from them who follow these weird laws?"

Li Mo paused. What Mei was discussing with him now had already begun to cross the bottom line of humanity and move towards another dimension that he and she could never reach.

As Mei said, human beings are creatures whose thinking is limited by their own form of existence. They seem to be able to think from other perspectives and imagine that unreasonable things do not exist.

But those so-called non-existent and unreasonable things are actually within human cognition. They can be created and naturally understood, and are not beyond cognition.

"I think we've gone a bit off topic. These are just my simple guesses, with no evidence to prove them. Perhaps... one day in the future, when we have eliminated all the strange things, the truth will naturally be revealed to us. As long as you're not dead, that's all that matters."

"Of course, the prerequisite is that you are alive, Li Mo, you must be alive."

"Even if I die, you can train someone else to deal with the weirdness." Li Mo said expressionlessly.

"You're overthinking it. After you die, I'll immediately take the others and run away. The survival of the world has nothing to do with me. You are not allowed to die, understand?"

"I know you've narrowly escaped death every time, so I'm never entirely sure if I can come back alive next time. But I've said many times that I'm willing to take on this responsibility, simply because we have an agreement. If you die, the agreement is void, and I will never get involved in anything related to the supernatural again."

"So, you must not die."

Mei was furious, her brows furrowed tightly, and she pursed her lips. Mei, who was always calm and composed, rarely held Li Mo's right hand, which was as cold as frost and snow.

Instead of letting go, he held on tightly.

Although in Li Mo's opinion, this amount of strength was not even enough to tickle.

Mei: “Remember what I said.”

Li Mo: “…Which sentence?”

Mei: “Any one is fine.”

Li Mo thought about what Mei had said to him a minute ago.

As long as I'm not dead...

Must live...

Not allowed to die...

I absolutely cannot die...

No wonder any sentence can be said, because the meaning is the same.

He doesn't want to die either.

Li Mo knew very well that after countless attempts, there would always be a mistake, an accident.

And if there is just one accident, he will never come back to this home or be with her again.

"Nothing is absolute, Mei, and I'm no exception."

Li Mo said coldly, took back his phone and sent Mei an address.

"I didn't have time last time because of that ghost from Qianyu Academy. I'll wait for you here at three o'clock this afternoon."

After saying that, Li Mo turned and left the bedroom, not forgetting to close the door.

Leaving behind an empty room, Mei sat alone in front of the computer, her mind racing. Finally, in a long silence, she slowly closed her eyes.

Her efforts must be useful.

must……

Mei picked up the paper cutting on the table, kneading it thoughtfully, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, but it was not a frivolous smile, but a helpless bitter smile.

"I told you that you won't die."

After she finished speaking, Mei collected all the blood-stained paper cuttings and placed them in a locked cabinet, which was pressed down by the scarf that Alicia was wearing.

I opened my phone and took a look at the address Li Mo sent me——

The largest amusement park in Changkong City.

Going to an amusement park on the weekend is not an efficient thing to do.

No matter what kind of facility it is, it is already overcrowded and queuing will waste a long time.

If it were anyone else, Mei would decisively refuse, but since it was Li Mo who invited her, she might as well go and take a look, even if she didn't do anything.

The noisy chirping of cicadas can be heard outside the window, louder than in any other year. The cool breeze blows through the green branches and leaves, making a rustling sound.

The new and tender branches grow wildly, carrying with them hazy and dreamy memories.

The golden sunlight poured down, illuminating the clean and tidy potholes that had been washed by the rain a few days ago. Drops of crystal clear dew remained on them, emitting a refreshing and soothing fragrance.

Mei sat in the coffee shop, staring at the dark reflection in the cup with her head lowered.

Once dependence becomes a habit, leaving it is like quitting drugs.

The coffee reflects the window, and the melancholy dissolves in the brown. There are noisy voices outside, but there is nothing inside.

At least in Mei's eyes, she couldn't see anyone or anything worth noting.

The room was filled with dead silence.

At some point, the coffee shop clerk walked to the window and pulled all the curtains, plunging the coffee shop into darkness. Only the dim light above could barely illuminate the room.

"……wrong."

Mei realized something was wrong. With the weekend and the largest amusement park in Changkong City as the backdrop, the coffee shop couldn't have as few people as it did now.

The clerk even took the initiative to close the curtains, as if telling the tourists outside: We are closed today.

They don’t make much money in normal times, so it’s obviously unreasonable to voluntarily give up the time period with the largest customer flow.

Mei stood up immediately. There was no one around. Not only had the previous customers disappeared, but even the clerk was nowhere to be seen.

Suddenly, the only remaining light above my head went out in the next second.

The coffee shop fell into darkness and endless silence.

Supernatural events? Has the Eigenworld been invaded to this extent?

Oops... I haven't prepared anything for today, so it seems a bit troublesome to deal with it.

Mei took a deep breath and remained calm. She didn't turn on the light on her phone, but followed her memory of how she came here, slowly groping her way to the door and trying to see if she could leave the coffee shop through the door.

You must be adequately prepared to deal with supernatural events.

Fortunately, the space did not change, and Mei quickly found the door of the coffee shop, but she did not open it immediately.

Instead, push it open slightly to reveal a small gap.

It was warm and sunny outside. After confirming this, Mei took a step back, spun forward, and kicked open the door of the coffee shop without hesitation.

The five most familiar people came into view.

Li Mo, Padofils, Alicia, Raiden Mei, Hua.

Padu was held by Alicia's hand to prevent her from losing control.

Li Mo: "Hey!"

Mei: “What’s wrong?”

"Happy birthday to you."

"Is it my birthday today?"

"I was just kidding, just wish you a happy birthday in advance."

"Ah."

"Wait, actually, that was just a joke. Today is your birthday, and I've transformed back. You know, I'm dumb and speechless in that state, and I can't give you a surprise, and it'll make you angry. This is something I prepared for you on the spur of the moment, so it might be a little simple."

Li Mo touched the back of his head stupidly. He felt very sorry for such a cliché surprise.

I had thought of this day half a month ago, but I only remembered to plan it today.

Li Mo led everyone into the coffee shop and took out a larger ordinary cake from the front desk.

Since I didn’t have time to customize it, I simply bought an ordinary cake from the cake shop without any special features.

"Happy birthday."

"You've already said it."

"It's okay, just remember this."

"Which sentence?"

Mei looked back and teased.

Li Mo could not give the same answer because he did not have a narrative as purposeful as his own.

Facing Mei's teasing, Li Mo did not panic, but said very naturally: "Next sentence."

"Ok?"

"I remember every word you said."

"I won't die, absolutely not. I will survive and come back to see you in glory. Whether it's this time or the next time."

"You also have to remember this sentence, whether it's this one or the previous one."

"..." Mei was stunned for a moment, then immediately shifted her attention to other people's faces after coming to her senses.

There seemed to be stars in Alicia's eyes, twinkling, and she smiled wickedly as she watched the fun.

Padova was sitting aside holding the can and sighing that she didn't expect the can also have a piece of cake.

Hua didn't say much. There was an impulse in her mind that made her confess her feelings, but she shouldn't be the one to break such a beautiful atmosphere.

"These are three sentences." Mei said.

"Any one is fine." Li Mo smiled faintly.

② Haunted House: The Fear of God-killing Cuisine

The corridor was narrow and dark, filled with a cold, oppressive air. A dozen people walked slowly in the passage that only allowed one person to walk together, with different expressions on their faces.

"..."

Li Mo walked in front, expressionless and calm.

Behind them were seven ordinary people who had joined them in the haunted house tour, three women and four men. No, that's not right.

To be more precise, there are three couples with hopeless, sparkling third wheel singles.

"Woo woo, baby, I'm so scared..."

"It's okay, it's okay. The ghosts that come out later are just NPCs. They are all fake. Ghosts are also human beings."

The same thing happened to the other two girls. The three boys who were being snuggled up to looked very young, about seventeen or eighteen years old.

Although his legs were shaking, he pretended to be calm in front of his girlfriend.

Dim vision makes too many normal things seem strange. Fear comes from the unknown, especially things that suddenly appear beyond cognition in a short period of time and are hostile to oneself.

"So, why should I come to work overtime?"

Li Mo fell into deep thought and couldn't help asking himself.
