Li Mo was a little confused.
"Since you haven't objected, I'll take it as my point." Mei sat back down at the table, adjusting her black-framed glasses that were about to fall. "Academia generally believes that time progresses linearly. Of course, it's more accurate to say that time itself doesn't exist. It's merely a conceptual scale used to reflect the changes in objective things."
"Coincidentally, weirdness is very good at polluting concepts. Polluting people and things is actually the most common. Once the concept of the world, that is, the rules of the universe, are polluted, many things can no longer be deduced using common sense."
"Just like, it's impossible for two identical people to exist at the same time. If they do, one of them must be in a 'false' state, capable of both existing and not existing. That existence must not be in its true self, but in some other role. In his past life, this civilization's Li Mo didn't demonstrate cognition and abilities beyond those of his peers."
"But... that doesn't mean he doesn't exist. Just like you now, it seems like you've replaced him, but in reality... you've simply 'woke up.' If I had to make an analogy, it's like a drunk person who's lost their balance and ability to think straight, walking unsteadily, believing that this is the right thing to do and the only way to do it."
"But after waking up, they will walk like a normal person, even if they can still repeat the posture they had when they were drunk."
Mei shook her head. "Sorry, I said something irrelevant to the plan. Let's get back to the point, about the concept of weirdness being able to contaminate concepts."
"Perhaps the weirdness itself is the ultimate in omniscience and omnipotence."
Li Mo: “!!!”
Li Mo, who was in a triple-death state, stood up suddenly, clenched his hands tightly, and looked sharply at Mei who had put forward an extremely absurd conjecture.
The "ultimate" of "omniscience and omnipotence".
In the eigenworld, Mei, whom he trusted the most, had also mentioned this conjecture.
But at that time, Li Mo just felt it was incredible and thought it was not very realistic.
After all, "omniscience and omnipotence" do not exist from the human point of view, just like God cannot create a stone that He cannot move. This is a paradox.
Can God create a stone that he cannot lift?
If He could, why couldn't He, who is omniscient and omnipotent, lift a stone? If He couldn't, why couldn't He, who is omniscient and omnipotent, create such a stone?
Based on human logical reasoning, this is a complete paradox and contradiction.
"Oh, it seems you've heard this view before me. Or perhaps you've found some relevant clues. My guess is pretty accurate then."
Seeing Li Mo's reaction, Mei smiled with relief. Although she was a leader, she was also a scholar.
For scholars, nothing is more exciting than having their unique views recognized or even confirmed.
Just like Nicolaus Copernicus denied the geocentric theory and proposed the heliocentric theory; Stein Einstein overturned the absolute concept of time and space and proposed the theory of relativity; Watson and Crick revealed the double helix structure of DNA and subverted the traditional concept of biology.
Walking on the right path that is not understood by the world always makes scholars excited.
Is this considered rebellion?
"Go on..." Li Mo adjusted his mood, sat back in his seat and said in a deep voice.
Mei didn't keep anyone in suspense. She was full of affection for the person in front of her, even though this affection came out of nowhere.
"Based on the intelligence I've gathered so far, the strange patterns vary, and the abilities are all over the place, some similar, some completely different. The strength of the abilities is related to the amount of pollution. The greater the pollution, the more complete the patterns and abilities."
"So is it possible that all of these strange things are actually omniscient and omnipotent, but are limited by the level of pollution, causing their laws and abilities to remain flawed. As I said above, drunk people tend to forget some of their common sense and behavior."
"For weirdness, 'common sense' and 'behavior' correspond precisely to 'ability' and 'rules'."
"As time stretches on and pollution levels increase, the strange patterns and abilities will expand immensely. And since time is infinite, this also means the final strangeness will inevitably possess the most complete patterns and abilities. This is an omniscience beyond human cognition, an undefined omnipotence."
“It’s the end, it’s also the ultimate.”
Mei carefully explained her understanding, and Li Mo listened very attentively.
Knowing these things doesn't help much in dealing with strange events, but it does reveal the essence of the strangeness.
If we understand the essence, it will be possible to completely prevent the birth of weirdness.
Everything in the world has its own laws. Legal principles must exist, and there must be corresponding means of dealing with them.
"It seemed as if she had vowed to use everything she had to destroy you and change the future. But you didn't die. Instead, everything progressed in the direction of the future."
"what do I need to do."
"Since the past hasn't been changed, she won't become completely strange and still retains her human consciousness. You just need to wait for the moment she wakes up and kill her. It's that simple."
"……I see."
Li Mo stood up and walked out of the laboratory with a knife in hand.
Mei quickly caught up and asked in confusion, "Where are you going now?"
"Find Ling and kill the ghost."
"It's not that urgent, you can rest for tonight."
"I don't need to rest."
After saying that, Li Mo disappeared from Mei's sight. In the silent corridor, Mei stood there, her lips moving slightly, but she didn't say another word.
He is very smart, at least in this ghost-like state, his thinking and judgment are far superior to those of ordinary people.
Able to easily extract useful information from redundant memories, and like a machine, quickly process the core elements and attach them to one's own action instructions.
but……
He still retains a trace of humanity, which cannot be discovered without careful consideration.
"It's a little unexpected..." Mei nodded, unable to help but smile. Her fingers gently stroked her creamy cheeks, and she murmured to herself curiously, "Is it because my name is Mei, or because of this face? The plan was obviously full of loopholes, but she promised to carry it out."
Li Mo trusted himself too much, and this trust even reached a blind level.
The plan he had mentioned was not actually comprehensive, and there were still many risks and imperfections. However, Li Mo still gave a positive answer and said that he would do what he was supposed to do in the plan.
"But it's true. After all, I did hide something. Killing the source of the fake person won't end this farce. He is the only one who can end this farce."
"Everyone, including me, is just playing a role in the drama so that the drama can continue until the curtain falls."
Mei stared blankly at the place where Li Mo left, and slowly spoke:
"I've hinted at this many times, Li Mo, you've always been projecting yourself."
"The concept of projecting oneself is distorted by repeated pollution, giving rise to this strange and bizarre phenomenon."
"The source of hypocrisy is you."
----

On the other side, Li Mo woke up Ling who was sleeping soundly, and shuttled between the floors of the city with the magic sword in hand.
The night is like a mysterious veil, and the neon lights can't even illuminate the shadows.
"Brother, Dr. Mei said that dealing with ghosts isn't that urgent... Can't you just let me get some sleep?"
"..."
"Brother? Are you listening?"
"can hear."
"I can't hear you. The wind is so strong it's blowing all the sound away!"
"..."
Ling argued with Li Mo as usual, constantly refuting Li Mo's remarks.
But today, all she gets is silence.
It’s not that there were no words to answer, but when Li Mo wanted to open his mouth, every character lost its bright colors, and everything was empty and pale.
It was as if even the act of opening his mouth had lost its meaning.
No need to open your mouth, no need to make a sound, no need to breathe, no need to respond...
Just execute the only goal in your mind. Only completing the goal has meaning, and it is the only thing to do...
"Brother, you smell so good~~"
"...Then I'll throw the clothes in your room and you can smell them slowly."
"Hey, hey, hey? Stop it, it stinks! I was just joking. Who told you to be so silent? You only have ghosts in your eyes... Wait, let me make it clear first, I'm not jealous of ghosts."
"I know."
"what do you know?"
"You're not jealous."
"I'm not jealous of the devil."
"it's the same."
"What do you mean by the same? Brother, you've changed. You wouldn't treat me like this before. I'm angry, the kind that can't be appeased."
"As long as I can use my abilities for my own benefit, that's all."
"You! Sister Beichen is right. Chatting with straight men is torture, unless the other person is someone you truly like. In that case, you will want to keep chatting and feel happy no matter what we talk about. Chatting with you is so boring. Of course, it's not that I don't like you, but this is the love between family members, which is different from the love between lovers that Sister Beichen mentioned... Then again, how does Sister Beichen know so clearly? Does she have someone she likes? Brother, you have been with Sister Beichen the longest, did you know? I'm really curious about what kind of man is worthy of a woman as extraordinary as Sister Beichen. You can't find many in a whole city. No, no, no, Sister Beichen is the best. She is beautiful, kind, and has a nice voice..."
Ling was like a chatterbox that had the play button pressed, complaining non-stop and saying all kinds of weird things.
She pressed the play button herself.
Li Mo did not answer, but just raised the magic sword and swung it numbly, killing one ghost after another wandering in the city.
Beichen Wangchuanshou Meiyi, he had never seen this character in the original work.
That's not important, what matters is that she knew Irene.
Irene Adler is the most complete ghost ever confirmed by the notebook, even surpassing the completeness of Weird Qi. One can imagine how long Irene lived.
The fact that he could live for so long and still maintain human consciousness is inexplicable.
But this is the reality, and Li Mo has no way to delve into it.
But what Li Mo cared about most was that Beichen said that there were three people who would never change: Kiana, Irene, and him.
Li Mo couldn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence, especially the three words "never change".
Obviously it’s not identity, after all, Kiana and his identities are changing at any time.
Even less likely is the amount of pollution and its human-related nature.
So what's the unchanging part? Li Mo couldn't figure it out.
While thinking, Li Mo killed a few more ghosts.
Even if you don't pay attention, your body will instinctively seek out demons and kill them according to the laws of the demon sword, turning them into nutrients for Akazume Sakura.
"Brother? Are you listening? Moshimoshi?"
Ling on his back stretched out her right hand and waved it in front of Li Mo.
Li Mo came back to his senses and replied directly: "No."
Ling: "??? Okay, I feel like you're even more irritating than before. I want to ask if your sister Beichen has ever had a boyfriend before."
"Yes." Li Mo blurted out.
Two seconds later, Li Mo stopped on the top floor of a building and fell into deep thought.
After hearing Li Mo's affirmative answer, Ling immediately became interested and asked excitedly, "Really? Really? Who is it? What's their name?"
"..." Li Mo was silent for a while, and said two words perfunctorily: "Forgot."
Did he forget? He shouldn't have known. At least he had never seen Beichen have a boyfriend. So why did he just reflexively say "yes"?
strangeness……
"Hehe, I don't think you forgot, you just don't want to say it! Brother, you actually like Sister Beichen very much, right?"
"It's not important, let's end the topic here. I know you want to liven up the atmosphere and make me return to my old self. I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. This is the real me, right now, the only real Li Mo."
Li Mo exposed Ling's little thoughts and did not stop there. He continued to plunge into the darkness and hunt the wandering ghosts.
This time, Ling'an shared a lot and hugged Li Mo honestly without saying a word.
Silently absorbing the weak vitality emitted by the broken limbs, fresh blood, and struggling beating hearts wherever it passes.
This is a fact that both of them are aware of but are unwilling to reveal.
Li Mo, is he still the sunny and lively Li Mo who teases his family from time to time?
Maybe, maybe not.
In Ling's eyes, Li Mo became very strange, and the strange Li Mo was not his brother.
Only Li Mo himself knew that his condition corresponded exactly to Mei's explanation some time ago - the drunk person gradually sobered up, and the incomplete weirdness gradually revived.
The process is——
